soldiers in front

In the evening, an uninvited guest suddenly broke into the police station.

A stray dog ​​sneaked into the compound of the police station through the gap of the rolling gate. The security guard Xiaoshi witnessed the whole process of its illegal entry into the police station, but he did not drive it away, and even put the unfinished lunch box on the ground to feed it.But this thin stray dog ​​with protruding ribs didn't eat the food, sniffed the food twice, and then lay down next to the raised stone edge at the edge of the lawn.

Xiaoshi moved the boxed lunch to its mouth again, thinking that it was thirsty, and filled it with a glass of water in a disposable paper cup, but the stray dog ​​remained indifferent.

Just when Xiaoshi was at a loss what to do, he heard steady footsteps approaching, and then a gentle and mellow male voice asked, "What's wrong with it?"

Xiaoshi looked up and saw that the person who came was Xia Bingyang who had brought him in this morning. He had followed Daliu to inquire about this man's identity, but he was vaguely told that this man's surname was Ji.

"I don't know, I thought it came in to look for something to eat, but it wouldn't eat it when it was fed." As he spoke, Xiao Shi nodded the stray dog's nose: "You're quite picky."

At this time, the sky was dimmed, and two street lamps with weak light were lit on both sides of the police station yard. The sky was bluer and deeper, and a layer of dim black floated in the city streets covered by the rich blue sky. Clusters of sparks gradually popped out.

Ji Zheng took a closer look and found that this stray dog ​​was only two or three months old. It was a domestic native dog that had long been neglected in today's cities. It is a black miscellaneous hair, lying on its side on the concrete floor, showing no hostility to the two people around it, and looks very unafraid of people.But its half-closed eyelids and the irregular rise and fall of its sunken belly gave it an unhealthy look.

Xiaoshi also noticed that the puppy was not very comfortable, and was about to touch its head, but was stopped by Ji Zheng just as he raised his hand.

Ji Zheng said warmly: "It's best not to touch it now, it may bite."

Xiaoshi retracted his hand and looked at it: "What's wrong with it? Is it hungry?"

Ji Zheng looked at its dry nose and its twitching front legs, then gently touched the tips of its ears, saying: "It has a fever."

"Fever? How do you know?"

Ji Zheng simply said: "The limbs twitch, and the ears are wet."

"So you're a veterinarian?"

Ji Zheng smiled lightly: "Almost, they are all doctors."

Xiaoshi asked again: "Then what should we do now? Can it recover by itself?"

Ji Zheng frowned worriedly, and said: "It is estimated that it has had a fever for a while, and if it continues to procrastinate, it may get canine distemper."

"Is canine distemper serious?"

"The death rate is 80.00 percent."

Xiaoshi had no choice but to stare at the stray dogs in vain.

Ji Zheng intends to send it to the pet hospital, but he doesn't dare to stay too far away from Xia Bingyang now, and he doesn't want Xia Bingyang not to see him after work, so he is helpless.

At this time, a horn sounded outside the gate, and a silver Land Rover Range Rover was parked outside the gate. Ji Zheng recognized Xia Bingyang's car at a glance.

Xiaoshi opened the rolling gate, and the car drove in and parked under the streetlight by the lawn, then Lou Yue pushed the door open and came out, holding a kraft paper file bag in his hand.When Lou Yue got off the car, she also saw the stray dogs surrounded by Ji Zheng and Xiao Shi. She walked over and squatted beside Ji Zheng, frowned and looked at the stray dogs for a few times, then looked at Ji Zheng, and said: "Doctor Ji?"

Ji Zheng nodded: "Yes."

Lou Yue stretched out her hand towards him: "Lou Yue."

Ji Zheng shook hands with her: "Hello."

Lou Yue raised her chin towards the dying stray dog ​​lying on the ground: "Is it dying?"

Ji Zheng adjusted his glasses and said, "Not yet, but—"

Xiaoshi rushed to say: "Doctor Ji said that this dog has a fever and is about to get canine distemper, and it will die if it is not treated."

Lou Yue looked at Ji Zheng again: "Are you a pet doctor?"

Ji Zheng smiled and explained: "No, I just understand a little bit."

Lou Yue's plain gaze returned to the stray dog, and the indifference on her face made it impossible to see whether she had sympathy or indifference for the terminally ill stray dog: "Now it won't die for a while, right? "

"should be."

While talking, Lou Yue's cell phone rang, and she picked it up: "I'm back, the car is parked in the yard, you come down and get the keys."

After Lou Yue finished speaking, she hung up the phone, and then, Ji Zheng's cell phone rang again.

Xia Bingyang asked where he was.

Ji Zheng lowered his voice slightly and said, "I'm downstairs, you can see me when you come out."

In less than 2 minutes, Xia Bingyang came out of the office building and quickly walked towards the door of the security room where three people gathered.

A few meters away, Lou Yue threw the car keys towards Xia Bingyang, Xia Bingyang raised his hand to catch the car keys and walked forward a few steps to stand behind Ji Zheng, bent down and put his hands on Ji Zheng's shoulders, watching with them Looking at the stray dog ​​lying on the ground, he said with a smile: "Are you summoning the soul of this dog or casting spells?"

Xiao Shi said: "Captain Xia, it's about to get canine distemper."

Except for the egg yolk at home, Xia Bingyang has no experience in keeping pets, so he doesn't understand what the term 'canine distemper' is in his mouth, but he still sees that the state of the stray dog ​​is not right: "Is it sick?"

Ji Zheng took the car keys from him and said, "I'm going to drive."

Xia Bingyang nodded, then squatted down on the seat vacated by Ji Zheng, looked at the stray dog ​​and said, "Send it to the hospital, it might still be saved."

Without saying a word, Lou Yue took off her coat and spread it on the floor, and said to Xia Bingyang, "Hold me."

Xia Bingyang fixed the stray dog's head with one hand and supported its back with the other, and Lou Yue and the two moved the whimpering stray dog ​​to Lou Yue's coat, and then Lou Yue hugged the dog through the coat. Get up, and say to Xia Bingyang: "Take me to the pet hospital." Finally, he asked Xia Bingyang's opinion perfunctorily: "Are you on the way?"

Xia Bingyang tugged the stray dog's dangling tail, and said helplessly, "I can only go along the way."

Ji Zheng understands that Xia Bingyang will inevitably be mentally exhausted after a day of work, so he sits in the driver's seat and drives, Xia Bingyang sits in the co-pilot, and Lou Yue sits in the back with his dog in his arms, chatting with Xia Bingyang about work from time to time.

"Isn't the review team withdrawn?"

Lou Yue asked.

Xia Bingyang put down the car window, leaned his arms on the window sill, put his face on his arms and blew towards the wind outside the window for a while, and then said listlessly: "Chen Bureau means to keep it, and it is also the meaning of the City Bureau."

Lou Yue frowned and said, "I can't figure it out, this review team is in—" As she spoke, she glanced at Ji Zheng who was driving ahead, omitting Min Chengzhou's name, and said, "After the director's case is solved, it should be disbanded." The review team was originally set up for the director. Now that the case has been investigated, why do you keep it? Why do you have to have multiple posts?"

Xia Bingyang's bangs were messed up by the evening wind, and he kept brushing his brows and the corners of his eyes. He brushed all his hair back before laughing, and said, "Sister Lou, our review team has been set up since its inception. It's clear. Although the Municipal Bureau and the Provincial Department have praised us, we are not well received by our peers. Our team has handled the case of the Director of the Municipal Bureau. In the future, we may handle the case of the President of the Court and the Chief of the Procuratorate. case...Maybe it was because of that day that the higher-ups didn't revoke the organization of the team." As he spoke, Xia Bingyang closed his eyes and said lazily: "Chen Bureau was asked urgently by me today, so he told me something really important. In other words, she said that the higher-ups will not only use the re-inspection team as a serious crime team, but will also use it as an 'internal investigation team' in the future. Keep silent when there is nothing to do, and we must go if there is something to do."

Lou Yue couldn't help but laugh: "Internal investigation... what is this? Internal supervision? Use us as Jinyiwei?"

"Hey, don't be so pessimistic."

Xia Bingyang picked up a strand of hair, rolled his eyes upwards, looked at that strand of hair, then sat up straight and smoothed out his messy hair, then turned to Ji Zheng, raised his face and asked Ji Zheng: " Brother, is my hair messy?"

Ji Zheng just parked his car in front of the sidewalk with a red light. Hearing this, he turned his head to look at Xia Bingyang, helped him straighten some messy hairs on the top of his head, and then patted his bangs, saying: "No mess."

The red light at the intersection entered the countdown, so Ji Zheng's gaze didn't stay on his face for too long, he just brushed his hair and turned his head to look straight ahead.

Xia Bingyang squinted his eyes, and wanted to find fault with him when he had nothing else to do, so he deliberately asked, "Did you cut my hair badly?"

The red light flashed and turned into a green light. Ji Zheng drove through the intersection: "Didn't you say it's okay?"

Xia Bingyang crossed his arms and asked again: "Then I didn't look good at noon?"

Ji Zheng finally realized that his tone was not serious, but deliberately provocative. He couldn't figure out Xia Bingyang's way, so he turned his head and took a serious look at Xia Bingyang: "It seems that there is no difference."

Xia Bingyang raised his chin slightly, pretended to be cold and hummed: "Then why do you act like you don't really want to see my face?"

Ji Zheng couldn't help laughing, and looked at Xia Bingyang helplessly, and said seriously: "Because the driver can't be distracted while driving."

Xia Bingyang blinked, and suddenly said: "It turns out that I will distract you."

Ji Zheng nodded cooperatively.

Xia Bingyang raised his feet and stepped on the edge of the seat, then hugged his knees and buried his face in the crook of his arms, and said in a low voice, "I'll hide my face so that you won't be able to see me and won't be distracted."

Ji Zhenghuo was genuinely amused by him, turned his head and laughed a few times out the window, and then touched the back of Xia Bingyang's neck: "Stop making trouble, sit down."

Xia Bingyang put his legs down, returned to his normal sitting posture, and smiled happily.

While driving, Ji Zheng looked at him from the corner of his eye, and gently stroked his face twice with the back of his hand.

Xia Bingyang pulled Ji Zheng's hand down and put it on his lap, turned his face out of the window and stopped looking at Ji Zheng, but the smile on his face never disappeared.

Lou Yue, who was sitting in the back seat, had a hunch when Xia Bingyang asked Ji Zheng like an idiot if he was not as handsome as he was at noon, so she chose to ignore evil and turned her head to look out the window. When flirting at the level of no more than ten years old, she managed to collapse in front of her face without changing her face and only lying in her heart.

After calming down in the carriage, she took out her mobile phone to send a message to Ren Erdong, her fingers trembling slightly - what is the relationship between Xia Bingyang and that pet doctor surnamed Ji? !

Ren Erdong did not correct her misunderstanding of Ji Zheng's profession, but only replied three words concisely and forcefully - dog man man.

Soon, the pet hospital arrived, Ji Zheng parked the car on the side of the road, and Lou Yue took the dog out of the station and looked at Ji Zheng repeatedly while talking to Xia Bingyang outside the car, his eyes were complicated and profound.

"Go to work early tomorrow, I have something to tell you."

After Lou Yue finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the pet hospital.

Xia Bingyang was a little puzzled: "If you have something to say, you can say it now."

Ji Zheng vaguely understood the way Lou Yue looked at him just now, but he didn't point it out, and drove on the road again: "Where are we going?"

Xia Bingyang stretched his waist and said: "Find a restaurant to eat, and go home to sleep after eating."

Ji Zheng asked: "What do you want to eat?"

Xia Bingyang thought for a while and said, "I'm not very hungry, what do you want to eat?"

Weining City ushered in another night of buildings, mountains, cars, seas, trees and silver flowers. Not far away, the lights like fire dragons on the Qijiang Bridge crossed the entire night sky like a Milky Way.

Ji Zheng saw a corner of the Qijiang River from afar in the shadow of a tall building, and said, "I'm not hungry, so let's go to the bridge to have a look?"

Xia Bingyang responded without thinking: "Okay, you can go if you want."

The bridge is not a good place for a leisurely walk. The wind from the river shuttles back and forth on the bridge. Only cars come and go on the bridge, and there are few people on foot.Ji Zheng parked the car in the temporary parking lane, got out of the car with Xia Bingyang and walked along the viewing sidewalk beside the guardrail.The wind was strong at night, the river under the bridge was rumbling, and the ferry floating on the river occasionally made a long whistle, like a whale in the deep sea.

Ji Zheng walked slowly beside the guardrail, his clothes and hair were fluttering in the wind, but his figure stood upright, like a poplar tree standing in the strong wind, with a military-like demeanor.He looked at the turbulent river in the dark, then glanced at the ferry that was slowly going away in the distance, and said, "The change is really big."

Xia Bingyang walked beside him, his shirt collar turned up because of the strong wind in the river, and Ji Zheng could be heard comparing the difference between this bridge and six years ago.He also looked at the vast river and was silent for a moment, then said: "Actually, nothing has changed, it's still the bridge and these boats."

From the corner of his eyes, Ji Zheng saw that he had all the collars of his shirt tied up, so he took off his coat and put it on Xia Bingyang's shoulders, and changed places with him, allowing him to the sidewalk, completely protecting him.

The corners of Xia Bingyang's lips curled up, accepting this love calmly, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he used to put coats on others, but he didn't expect that there would be a day when someone put a coat on him, and this person was actually Ji Zheng.With the evening wind blowing, he felt that the beauty at this moment was a bit unreal. Looking at Ji Zheng's dignified and undulating and deep side face lines, he felt a little more at ease and at the same time felt even more unreal.

In order to make himself feel more real, he hooked Ji Zheng's little finger with his little finger.

Ji Zheng smiled silently, holding his hand in the palm of his hand.

Holding hands, facing the wind, they walked silently for a while on the night-like bridge, and the world and the noisy wind became quiet.

It is also rare for Xia Bingyang to calm down and enjoy the tranquility between him and Ji Zheng. In this clear night, he seemed to be emptied from the inside to the outside, his whole body became light, and he no longer thought about it. Anything can only be felt by the people around you.

After a long time, he heard Ji Zheng say: "I was waiting for you here the night before yesterday, and you didn't show up after waiting for a long time. I was panicked at that time, and I thought I would never see you again."

Xia Bingyang lowered his head and smiled: "Didn't you see it?"

Ji Zheng sighed softly, and held his hand tighter: "Yes, I saw it."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Xia Bingyang beside him, and Xia Bingyang seemed to have a heart-to-heart with him, and turned his head to look at him, and they both smiled at each other without any content, and then turned their heads.

Ji Zheng said. "I didn't expect you to like me."

Xia Bingyang said; "Well... I didn't expect you to like me either."

"Bing Yang, will you blame me?"

"Why should I blame you?"

"Because of my dishonesty and evasion, we missed so many years."

"Then you will blame me?"

"What's your fault?"

"Because of my immaturity and timidity, we missed so many years."

Ji Zheng smiled softly: "You are so nice, how could I blame you."

Xia Bingyang also smiled: "Then why would I blame you, I like you so much."

Ji Zheng stopped and looked at him for a long time.

Xia Bingyang shivered slightly, and opened his arms towards Ji Zheng: "It's so cold, hug me."

Ji Zheng stepped forward and hugged him in his arms.

Xia Bingyang put his arms around his waist, buried his face in the crescent of his neck, and once again smelled the borneol scent mixed with charcoal ink on his body.He thought that this smell came from Ji Zheng's clothes, but Ji Zheng was wearing his clothes at this time, and there was still this smell. It seems that the cold scent mixed with ink and borneol has followed Ji Zheng has melted into Ji Zheng's body for many years.

It's absurd, he is a little jealous of this fragrance, because it has been with Ji Zheng for so many years, and it is still integrated with Ji Zheng.So he hugged Ji Zheng even tighter, trying to impress himself with Ji Zheng's taste.

Ji Zheng hugged him, and suddenly his eyes fell on a street lamp dozens of meters away. There was something wrong with the wiring in that street lamp. The glowing white mist was blown away again.

After a long time, he said softly, "Bing Yang, I should go."

Xia Bingyang didn't speak, his body froze, and then he tightly grabbed the shirt material at the back of his waist.

Ji Zheng said: "I still have things to do, there are many people and things that I can't leave behind for the time being."

Xia Bingyang's voice choked slightly: "So are you going to abandon me?"

Ji Zheng frowned in pain, and said: "I will never abandon you, you are as important as my life, how could I abandon my life."

Xia Bingyang was still dazed and sad for a second, and wanted to laugh when he heard this sentence for a second, but he bit his lower lip hard, but he didn't laugh, and said: "It sounds good, don't you want to laugh now? leave me."

Ji Zheng whispered in his ear: "I will come back, I promise."

"How come back?"

"I know the address of your home, I know the address of your unit, and I have your contact information. I know how to find you. I promise we will meet again soon."

Having said that, Xia Bingyang knew that Ji Zheng had to leave, so he hugged Ji Zheng tightly, and said ruthlessly: "If I don't see you in three days, I will dump you."

Ji Zheng laughed, turned his head and kissed his ear: "Okay, in order not to let you dump me, I will come back to you as soon as possible."

Xia Bingyang suddenly raised his head and kissed his lips vigorously. Ji Zheng just wanted to respond to him, but Xia Bingyang let him go quickly, took a step back, turned his head away from him, and said coldly, "Let's go."

Ji Zheng stood, not moving.

Xia Bingyang: "Let's go now while I'm still rational and haven't changed my mind."

So Ji Zheng turned around and continued walking along the sidewalk alone. After taking two steps, he stopped suddenly, looked back at Xia Bingyang and said, "Close your eyes."

Xia Bingyang looked at him in the frantic wind, motionless.

Ji Zheng smiled wryly, and said: "If you look at me, I don't want to leave."

Xia Bingyang closed his eyes, everything in front of him disappeared immediately, only the wind kept coming and going around him.

After a few short seconds, maybe a long few minutes, he slowly opened his eyes, and Ji Zheng could no longer be seen.In the direction Ji Zheng left, there was only a street lamp on the side of the road, which was bright and dark.
