When they arrived at the hospital, the doctor who treated them joked, "You guys are going to join our hospital's VIP, you just went out for a few days and came back."
Ren Yi smiled wryly: "Yes, is it a discount, is it a full discount?"
"It doesn't cost you money."
After finishing a set of physical examinations, it was already midnight.
Although there is no serious problem, it should be cultivated for a few days, but it is impossible for the two of them to waste time on rest now.
Zi Yan has gone completely insane, the conspiracy in the gymnasium failed this time, he will never let it go, who knows what crazy things he will do in the future, we must do everything possible to catch him as soon as possible.
When Gong Yingxian came out of the hospital, he threw a bunch of receipts into the trash can.
Ren Yi glanced at him secretly: "Are you hungry, do you want to..."
"I want to go back to the scene."
"Now?" Ren Yi looked at his watch, it was almost three o'clock.
"Sister Yan and the others are still collecting evidence at the scene, now is the prime time to catch the gangsters."
"Then you should pay attention to rest."
"Your father is not safe at home. Zi Yan was defeated tonight, and it is very likely that he will take revenge against us. After dawn, I will send someone to pick him up."
"...Okay." Although a little hasty, Gong Yingxian's words made sense. Right now, Ren Yi didn't feel at ease that his father was alone at home, and he wanted to go home to accompany his father right now.
Gong Yingxian stared at Ren Yi, and said seriously: "Also, before we catch Zi Yan, you don't act alone, you usually stay in the squadron, and you have to be extra careful when you go out to the police."
Ren Yi said: "It's the same for you, whether you are going home or working, you have to be extra careful."
Gong Yingxian nodded almost invisible, turned and left.
Ren Yi looked at Gong Yingxian's back and couldn't help sighing. Although they agreed to "pretend nothing happened", they knew that this was just a step for each other. In addition to their personal friendship, they also have a lot of work contacts. In the face of serious and important events, it is impossible for them to be so naive as to play a cold war or break up friendship.
It's just that the estrangement exists after all, and it is difficult to eliminate it.
-----
Arrived home.
The nanny who was on the night shift woke up, Ren Yi let out a "shh", quietly walked to Ren Xiangrong's room, opened the door, saw his father was sleeping peacefully, and his heart, which had been suspended all night, finally fell back to its original position.
He returned to his room and fell on the bed, feeling so sleepy and tired that he didn't even want to move a finger.
What happened that night seemed to last as long as a century. The first date between the two that he had expected was completely ruined. His emotions were like a roller coaster. He experienced joy, sadness, panic, and loss one after another. At this time, he had mixed feelings.
Closing his eyes, Gong Yingxian's face appeared in front of his eyes. He no longer has the strength to generate any intense emotions, now he just wants to sleep well, maybe he can have a dream related to Gong Yingxian, a beautiful dream.
He fell into a dream.
-----
Early the next morning, Gong Yingxian sent a car.
Ren Yi had already communicated with his father, but he didn't mention the relationship between the hospital and Gong Yingxian, for fear that his father would think too much, but he had to pack his luggage when he got up in the morning, so his father still complained, "Why are you in such a hurry."
The more serious things happened recently, the less Ren Yi dared to tell his father, even if he himself was worried about his safety, how could he convince his father to rest assured. The only thing that can reassure him now is to send his father to a confidential, 24-hour safe place where someone will take care of him. Gong Yingxian's hospital is indeed the best choice.
When we arrived at the hospital, all the formalities were completed. Dr. Han called Ren Yi aside, and said politely: "Captain Ren, you can rest assured that the old captain is here with us. Dr. Gong has specially instructed that all of our hospital will take care of you." take seriously."
"Then I will trouble you." Ren Yi looked at the top of his head, "There are cameras everywhere here, right?"
"Yes, 24-hour security and nursing care, very safe." Doctor Han smiled, "You can also visit him at any time, and we will follow up with you in time for the treatment and rehabilitation arrangements for the old captain."
"Okay, thank you all."
When Ren Yi returned to the ward, Ren Xiangrong was familiarizing himself with the smart switch at the head of the bed. Seeing him coming in, he said, "The environment here is so good."
Ren Yi smiled.
"How much is it a month?" Ren Xiangrong said a little uneasy, "This place is much more expensive than a nursing home."
"You paid for part of your medical insurance, and their hospital also has public welfare medical care for veterans, so it didn't cost much."
"Really." Ren Xiangrong said happily, "That's really good."
Ren Yi sat by the bed and said softly, "Dad, I'm very busy these days, so I may not be able to visit you often. We can make videos at ordinary times, okay?"
"Don't treat me like a child, you are busy with your work, there is still a month before the Lunar New Year, there must be a lot of things." Ren Xiangrong glanced at him, "Did you go to work last night and didn't sleep? Look at your His face turned blue."
"I've been busy until late, the concert, there are a lot of aftermath things to do."
"I watched TV for a while and then went to bed. I don't like to listen to the noise. It went well?"
Ren Yi concealed it very well on the face: "Successful, I also want a big star's autograph." The news of what happened last night was completely blocked. or confirmed.
Ren Yi settled down for his father, and hurried back to the squadron without even having time to eat.
On the way, he received messages from Xu Jin and Gong Yingxian respectively. Xu Jin asked him to go to the detachment meeting with Qu Yangbo in the afternoon, which had something to do with this incident. Gong Yingxian asked him to go to the branch office to record a statement in the afternoon.
Back in the squadron, Ren Yi was surrounded by soldiers, asking him about the details of last night. Normally, Ren Yi would have to brag and exaggerate his heroic deeds, but at this moment he is not in the mood at all, it has something to do with Gong Yingxian, and even more with Zi Yan.
He called everyone into the conference room for a meeting, and said seriously: "I have been cooperating with the police in the past few months. I went to a cult X organization that used arson as the main crime method, and they were responsible for the near accident at this concert."
Everyone's expressions became serious.
"The matter of the concert must be kept strictly confidential. I don't need to say more about this. What I want to talk about now is the work behind us. This organization is very evil and crazy. According to current police speculation, they have launched many incidents across the country over the years. Arson, some of which were disguised as accidents, they have been hiding their existence, but as they have done too much evil, and police investigations, they have now been discovered. So the leader of this organization began to take the initiative to attack us, and it is revenge for us Well, provocative or not, in short, if he succeeds in last night's concert, the loss will be immeasurable. If he doesn't succeed, he will definitely not let it go. Mentally prepare."
Qu Yangbo said in a deep voice, "How many clues do the police have now?"
"I have learned a lot, and now I have captured a member alive. I believe the police will be able to wipe out this organization, but it will take time to collect evidence and arrest them. Before they are caught, we have reason to believe that firefighters are one of their targets." One." According to Gong Yingxian's analysis at the time, firefighters are the ones who use fire to fight fire, and naturally they are also the representatives of Zi Yan's so-called "evil soul".
The soldiers looked at each other.
"I'm going to the branch office to take a statement this afternoon, and I have to go to the detachment to have a meeting with the instructor. The danger this time is not only the people, the police, but also the fire brigade, because they are a group of organized, brainwashed, and capable Arsonists with various professional knowledge, and because our squadron participated in the rescue of several cases related to this organization before, so this organization is eyeing me, and it is likely to do something that endangers the entire squadron."
Gao Ge said, "We're not afraid of those sons of bitches."
"Yes, don't be afraid of them, if you dare to come, use a water gun to spray them to death."
"I know that everyone is not afraid. We are the party of justice. Justice does not have to be afraid of evil, but I ask everyone to start from now. There is a trap for the organization to fall into. In the afternoon, we will discuss with the detachment how to better ensure everyone’s safety while doing daily work well.”
After the meeting ended, Qu Yangbo said with a serious face: "I didn't expect the incident to become so big. I thought it was just a dark net abroad. Who would have thought that so many cases would be involved."
"If so many cases hadn't been involved, those victims in the past would never have received justice, and there will be more victims in the future." Ren Yi took a deep breath, "This also proves that their fate is counted."
Qu Yangbo looked at his watch: "What time do we go to the detachment? The corps attaches great importance to it now. In the morning, the leaders of the General Public Security Bureau held a meeting with the leaders of our corps. Now we need the full cooperation of the fire department and the police. Captain Chen wants to discuss it with us." .”
"I'm going to the branch office to take a statement first, why don't you go to the branch office with me, and then we'll go to the detachment together."
"Okay, let's go."
On the way, the two chatted about the details of last night, and Qu Yangbo said earnestly, "Ren Yi, I know you are a passionate person, but don't forget that your father still needs you, and so many brothers in the Phoenix Squadron also need you." , you can't just die."
Ren Yi pretended to be relaxed and said: "Who said I don't want to die, I regret it. It was an emergency last night, otherwise what else can I do." It's not that he is not afraid of death, but everyone is willing to use their lives to guard If you don't deal with the bomb, Gong Yingxian will be in danger, and the audience below will also be in danger. At that time, he didn't have time to think at all, it was just instinct.
Qu Yangbo took off his glasses, rubbed his tired brows and eyes: "I'm really a little scared."
Ren Yi looked at Qu Yangbo, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"At first I thought it was an independent case. It's not like we haven't seen many bad and perverted crimes, but I never thought that this would be an organization. To be honest, I was really a little scared. I was worried about your safety and Everyone's safety."
"I understand, and I'm also afraid." Ren Yi smiled wryly, "I sent my dad away this morning, and that leader of Teacher X may be after Dr. Gong and me."
"You did the right thing, and you shouldn't act alone in the future."
Ren Yi nodded: "Believe that evil can never prevail, we will definitely catch them."
Arriving at the branch office, Ren Yi went in to take a statement, but saw that the atmosphere of the whole branch station was different from usual, especially the policewoman, not only did not welcome him as warmly as usual, but almost ignored him and discussed something excitedly.
Gong Yingxian and Cai Qiang were both there, Cai Qiang said: "Captain Ren, you should have come earlier, He Gong just left, and he still asked about you."
"He Gong just left? Did Song Juhan accompany him here?"
"Yeah, as expected of a star, it's really pretty."
Ren Yi immediately understood why the policewomen were so excited.
Cai Qiang asked gossipingly: "Hey, are they really that one? I don't pay attention to these things. Xiao Gao and the others told me just now that he and He Gong are a couple."
Ren Yi sneaked a glance at Gong Yingxian, and saw that his face sank, probably just hearing about homosexuality made him feel uncomfortable.
Gong Yingxian coughed lightly: "Let's get down to business."
Ren Yi described what happened last night in detail, and the whole process didn't take too much time, because Gong Yingxian knew almost everything.
After recording the statement, Cai Qiang went to do other things, and there were only two people in the room looking at each other.
Ren Yi scratched his hair: "Well, how is Wang Rui?"
"After the operation, he can't die." Gong Yingxian said, "We have already investigated him thoroughly. Ziyan is very good at brainwashing people who are not good at integrating into society. We will find his family members to cooperate with him. The doctor intervenes, as long as he is freed from the manipulation of Cult X, he will cooperate with us, and Zi Yan sent us a favorable witness."
"Great." Ren Yi said, "By the way, my dad has settled down in the hospital, thank you."
"you are welcome."
An awkward silence fell between the two of them.
Originally, they were already friends with endless topics to talk about, but overnight, they became like this.
Gong Yingxian collected the information: "I heard that the high-level officials of the police and fire department held a meeting in the morning. More resources will be allocated to this case. We will definitely catch Zi Yan as soon as possible."
Ren Yi looked at Gong Yingxian's face with some nostalgia: "With you here, I will definitely be caught."
Gong Yingxian stood up expressionlessly: "I'll go first."
"Well, when will the fire investigation be done?" Ren Yi said, "Now that your family's case is also related to this organization, maybe we can find a clue."
"I really don't have time to spare, it's only midnight."
"Midnight is midnight." Ren Yi said, "This is very important to you, and it is also very important to me."
Gong Yingxian looked at Ren Yi: "Why is it important to you?"
"Uh, because... what's important to you is important to me." After Ren Yi finished speaking, he felt uneasy, he didn't know if this sentence crossed the line.
Gong Yingxian's heart was slightly sour. Of course he knew that Ren Yi cared about him and treated him well, and because of this, it became more and more difficult for him to control his desire to possess this person.
He is restraining himself, and he doesn't know how long he can restrain himself.
