There is a district in City A called the old city. The ancient city mother river meanders through the middle of the old district, cutting time in half like a sharp blade.
On one side of the river are modern buildings of the 21st century, lined with commercial buildings, 24-hour convenience stores, and cafes that combine business and leisure, and are busy with busy urbanites.
On the other side, there is a well-preserved old building in City A, with bluestone roads, courtyards, brick walls and tiles. There is no modern atmosphere at all, as if this side of the river was forgotten by time a hundred years ago.
The old houses here are as valuable as townhouses in high-end communities.
In an old house that had been closed for fourteen years, people suddenly came in and out in the past few days. They were all young men wearing black T-shirts and military boots and trousers. They didn't say hello when they saw people. They just walked over with their heads lowered, acting in a very low-key manner.
Neighbors speculated that these men were bodyguards responsible for protecting the real owner of the house.
The owner here is Kangrui City.
Kang Ruicheng was sitting in the yard drinking morning tea in the sun. After listening to his subordinate's report, he threw the tea cup down.
"Trash!" He scolded angrily with a cold face, "You can't even find a woman if I ask you to!"
"Brother Kang, the main reason is... there were too many women in the amusement park that day." The subordinate said in embarrassment, "You only said she was a very beautiful woman. How can we find her? The restaurant's surveillance did not capture her." He didn't know what was going on with the fierce and fierce Kang Ruicheng. Some time ago, he suddenly wanted to find the whereabouts of a woman, which drove the young ones like them crazy.
If the situation that day hadn't allowed it, Kang Ruicheng would have sent someone to find the woman who bandaged his wound that day. After he came back, he was troubled with chores, and the people he asked to find her didn't try their best. Now that he finally had some free time, he sent his most trusted and capable subordinates to find her, but he couldn't find her even after digging three feet.
"Look again!" He stroked the scar on his hand, "If you can't find her by digging three feet, dig thirty feet! I don't believe that a little woman like her can fly into the sky and escape. I will never find her!"
"Brother Kang, isn't she just a beautiful woman?" Dongzi advised Kang Ruicheng, "City A is famous for being rich in beauties. We have all returned, so why don't we find another one?"
"You know nothing!" Kang Ruicheng kicked Dongzi, "She is different. Find it for me, no matter how much it costs, as many people as you want to find her!"
"Got it!" Dongzi nodded, "Brother, if you give us some more time, we will definitely find the person for you."
Kang Ruicheng roared: "Hurry up and go!"
"Yes!" Dongzi crawled away.
The few men standing guard at the side saw this and did not dare to move. The atmosphere in the yard was extremely tense. Kang Ruicheng couldn't bear it anymore. He kicked the table over and the tea sets and dishes were smashed on the floor. He was in a bad mood. Finally getting a little better.
Facing the increasingly dazzling sunlight, the image of that woman appeared in his mind again.
She said she was married, huh, he didn't care. Anyway, what he is best at is grabbing what he wants from others.
Su Jianan, who was targeted, was unconscious and packing her luggage in the guest house in Sanqing Town.
The small town in the south was full of unfamiliar dialects, but there was a strong atmosphere of life. Su Jianan took out the toiletries and placed them one by one, hung the clothes, and made the bed.
Only then did I realize that it was a hard bed, and I felt a little worried about whether I would be able to sleep at night.
She suddenly missed the bed at home. It was soft and comfortable. She felt like she was sinking into a cloud when she slept on it. It looked very much like the bed her mother had chosen for her when she was a child.
It's just... Then it won't be her home soon, right? At best, she only lived there temporarily as "Mrs. Lu" for half a year.
"Jian An, are you okay?" Someone knocked on the door, "Going to eat."
"coming."
Su Jianan locked the door and went out, following Captain Yan and his gang to a nearby restaurant.
In a small town where people live a simple life, the decoration of the restaurant is also simple and plain. However, the food tastes good, but Su Jianan still has no appetite and put down her chopsticks after taking a few bites.
This meal was hosted by the criminal police captain of the local police station. He specially thanked Captain Yan and the others for coming all the way from City A to help them solve the case. Seeing Su Jianan put down his chopsticks, the criminal captain asked: "Miss Su, is the food not to your liking?"
"No." Su Jianan shook her head and smiled, "I'm full."
"That's all." The criminal team touched his ears, "Why don't you look at the menu again and order a few of your favorite dishes?"
Su Jian'an didn't know how to deal with the sudden enthusiasm of the execution team, but his team members started to boo: "Execution team, I didn't eat much, why did you only notice that Miss Su didn't eat?"
The dignified criminal police captain actually turned red in the face, and the team members seized this opportunity to boo him even more fiercely. Su Jianan saw that this was not good and kicked Xiaoying.
Xiaoying had dealt with too many situations like this for Su Jian'an, so he gestured "Ok" to her and said "cough": "Let me tell you the real reason - as for Jian An, we miss our husband! "
This sentence contained a lot of information. The members of the criminal team fell silent one after another, looked at their captain with strange expressions, and then silently lowered their heads to eat.
Su Jianan stood up and said, "I'm going to make a phone call. You guys eat slowly."
In fact, the phone call and so on are of course just excuses. At this time, it seemed that she should help the execution team clear the siege before leaving.
However, Xiaoying's words were like an invisible hand, grabbing her heart.
She missed Lu Boyan, she really missed him. The moment the plane landed at the Z city airport, she began to miss him when she and Lu Boyan were more than 3,000 kilometers apart.
But so what? They are getting divorced.
Su Jianan walked forward along the sidewalk aimlessly, just to relieve the depression in her heart.
At an intersection, she saw an old woman setting up a stall selling hand-knitted camellias. The white flowers and light green flower vines could be worn on the hand as a bracelet and were very popular among young girls.
She squatted down and picked up a bunch of camellias. The old lady put it on for her with a smile. She raised her hand and looked at it. It was a completely different feeling from wearing jewelry.
"Grandma," she asked, "how much does this cost?"
The old lady spoke the local dialect, and Su Jianan shook her head to show that she didn't understand. Finally, the old lady gestured with one hand: two yuan.
Su Jianan rummaged through her wallet and found some change, but she still gave the old woman a hundred dollar bill and waved her hand to tell the old man not to look for it.
The old lady said something that sounded like a thank you in the local dialect, and gave Su Jianan two bunches of camellia. Su Jianan only took one bunch and walked back.
Before she reached the hotel door, she heard Xiaoying calling her: "Jian An, hurry up, I'm just about to call you! Why are you going?"
Su Jianan raised her hand: "I saw an old lady selling this and bought two bunches."
She had long black hair, and her fair skin was so plump that it seemed to glow in the sunlight. When she smiled, the sunlight seemed to seep into her smile, and her smile was more beautiful than the camellias on her hands.
She just walked forward, without any more words or actions, she could already make people feel fascinated.
"Doesn't this look like a forensic doctor?" The member of the criminal team sighed, swallowing his saliva, "He is clearly a movie star!"
"Don't tell me, if Jian An becomes a star, she is guaranteed to be famous." Xiaoying smiled, "But she is no different from a star now."
"What do you mean?" someone asked, "You just said she was married, but it doesn't look like it."
"Although she doesn't look like it, she is the real Mrs. Lu!" Xiaoying blinked, "Her husband's name is Lu Boyan!"
"Lu Boyan..." The members of the criminal team thought about this name, "Why does it sound familiar?"
"The president of the Lu Group." The criminal team's expression dimmed, "I heard that he got married a while ago, but I didn't expect that his wife was Miss Su."
Su Jianan walked back and happened to hear the words of the execution team. She smiled to hide the sourness in her heart and gave another bunch of camellias to Xiaoying: "Should we get to work?"
"Then let's go to the institute to have a meeting first." The criminal team calmed down and said, "Let's discuss the case first."
Captain Yan nodded in agreement, and of course the team members followed him back to the police station, with the two girls Su Jianan and Xiaoying walking at the back.
"Okay, Jian An." Xiaoying punched Su Jianan's arm, "Look at the execution team, they are fascinated by you."
"Stop joking." Su Jianan picked the camellias and put them in her bag, "We are here to work, so be serious."
Xiaoying smiled "hehe" and took Su Jianan's hand: "Okay."
She stopped mentioning these things and devoted herself to her work.
A group of people were busy until about 8 o'clock in the evening. The two captains said they would continue tomorrow. More than a dozen people were hungry. Captain Yan was thinking about the meal that the execution team had invited at noon, so he said: "Execution squad, you have something here." What kind of special snacks are there? Let us make a meal and I will be the host."
"Then let's go have a barbecue." The criminal team smiled, "We are close to the sea, and we are famous for grilled oysters and various seafood."
Everyone responded, and Su Jianan walked behind Captain Yan: "Captain, you go ahead, I'm going back to the guest house first."
"Why don't you go?" Captain Yan said, "How lively it is for everyone?"
Su Jianan was afraid of such excitement, so she shook her head: "I want to go back to the guest house to rest."
"Okay." Captain Yan knew that she was worried, so he didn't force her to stay. "If you are hungry, buy something to eat by yourself, or go to the small restaurant in the guest house."
"I know."
The guest house was near the police station. Su Jianan arrived there within a few steps. She saw a fruit stall at the door. She bought some seasonal fruits and brought them back to her room for dinner. She really had no appetite for the food.
There was no bathtub in the room, so she simply took a shower, washed some fruits and ate them slowly, then turned on the computer to surf the Internet, but the Internet speed was as slow as a turtle, so she stopped playing and lay down on the bed.
She didn't know if it was because the bed was too hard, but she tossed and turned, unable to find a comfortable position, and couldn't fall asleep.
After dark, the town was much quieter than the city. You could even see stars when you looked up. Su Jianan got out of bed and walked to the window, thinking of the night in City A.
At this time, Lu Boyan should go home and sleep, right
How was his day? Have you started calling a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement? Will he feel a little uncomfortable when he suddenly finds her not there when he comes home
"Lu Boyan," Su Jianan shed tears while looking at the starry sky, "Why do I miss you so much?"
She stubbornly wiped away her tears, closed the curtains and lay on the bed, but still couldn't fall asleep.
She wanted to go home, to the home where Lu Boyan was. (To be continued)
