After Xie Lanshan was discharged from the hospital, he always wanted to find out the woman in white in the dream. This dream was so real, so terrifyingly real, that it was like drawing on a piece of white paper, first sketching and then coloring, until the moment when he was hit by a car, Fully revealed. He wondered if he had really seen this woman, if there was something missing in his memory.
From a criminal investigation point of view, it is feasible.
Xie Lanshan went to Xiaoliang directly. After the original simulation portrait artist retired, before Shen Liufei arrived, he was in charge of this piece.
Unfortunately, after dawdling in front of the computer for an hour, I still found nothing. Xie Lanshan raised his hand and put Xiao Liang's head in his pocket, and got angry: "Idiot, it's not like that at all."
"Brother, is the computer dead?" The computer was running the simulation software for public security, and Xiao Liang was helpless, crying with a face, "With your vague words, you have to put a human face on it. Completely recovered, the concubine can't do it!"
Xie Lanshan was still looking at him.
Xiao Liang thought of a trick: "Don't we have experts now, go and find Shen Liufei!"
As a specially hired expert in the province, Shen Liufei doesn't often work in the Municipal Criminal Investigation Bureau. Even if he is, his office is not on the same floor as Xie Lanshan's serious crime team. Xie Lanshan frowned slightly, glanced outside the office door where no one passed by, and thought about the feasibility of this plan.
The answer is no, at least not for the time being.
He still couldn't fully trust Shen Liufei. Xiaoliang people are ruthless and warm-hearted, and they don't have many hearts. If you ask him about a personal issue that is not related to the case, he will forget about it. But Shen Liufei's eyes were like torches, and Xie Lanshan had many concerns about this unpredictable dream and this unidentified woman.
In the evening, I worked overtime with Tao Longyue and went to a fight bar in Hanhai City that had recently become famous. I heard that they wanted to investigate a case.
The two did not plan to reveal their police identities, and they dressed casually. Xie Lanshan was wearing a slightly loose black shirt, and his hair was longer, but he didn't have a braid. Fortunately, Lao Tao had a meeting outside these two days, and no one grabbed him to cut his hair and write an examination. Two people have said that he is handsome with long hair, and judging from the real feedback the mirror gave him, he is indeed handsome.
As soon as he entered the bar, someone whistled and winked at him.
Those erotic voices and eyes were all squeezed by Tao Longyue's big scar on his brow bone and pushed back fiercely.
Tao Longyue said that he had just received news this afternoon that a robbery gang had come to us. This place has been engaged in underground boxing competitions in recent days. Dragons and snakes are mixed, and there are many foreigners who come to join in the fun, so it is necessary to focus on investigation.
"Let the police handle this matter," Xie Lanshan thought he was catching ordinary thieves, and was quite disapproving, "Why do you still take the lead of the captain of the serious crime team?"
"It's not an ordinary thief, it's a thief who specializes in stealing art." Tao Long said, "I also want to see this famous fight bar."
Xie Lanshan smiled, his eyes filled with peach blossoms: "Then let's watch together."
Tao Longyue was very considerate, and followed with a smile: "Knowing that your kid has been confined in the hospital for so long, it hurts so much."
The waiters all had beautiful faces, and they all wore mischievous double ponytails. Tao Longyue saw Ding Li in the booming electronic music. Taking off the serious uniform in the city bureau, Ding Li was wearing a sexy short skirt, and her hair was dyed a little blue.
Ding Li also saw him and was so frightened that she turned her head and wanted to run.
"Why are you here?" Tao Long Yuejian stepped forward to stop people, and shouted, "Civil servants are not allowed to take part-time jobs, haven't you heard?!"
"I don't have a part-time job. My friend is working here. Unfortunately, my aunt came here and asked me to work for her one day, so I will work for one day." Ding Li put her hands together and begged the leader for mercy, "I don't get paid, It's not a part-time job."
Tao Longyue was still angry, looked at Ding Li's exaggerated heavy makeup, and then lifted the ends of her double ponytails: "What's wrong with your hair?"
"This is a one-time use, it's gone after washing." Ding Li explained eagerly.
"Is hair dyeing disposable?" Tao Longyue turned to ask Xie Lanshan.
"These people don't look like locals, Thais?" Xie Lanshan didn't have time to pay attention to Captain Tao's bastard, his face sank, and he pointed his eyes at a boxer who passed by them. The boxer was half-naked and wearing a pair of red boxer shorts. He was short and dark-skinned, but his muscles were distinct and his eyes were murderous. In addition to him, there are many people here who have obvious features of Southeast Asians, brown skin, big double eyelids, and low stature. Xie Lanshan has been in the Golden Triangle for so many years and is very familiar with this kind of appearance.
"This fight bar is getting more and more famous, and there are a lot of advertising sponsorships, so the prize pool has also increased. Now it wins a match of tens of thousands, so it attracts a lot of professional boxers from Thailand and Laos." Another boxer with a bad face asked from They walked in front of them and smashed the boxing gloves in their hands. Tao Longyue also frowned, "I heard that the games here are very bloody, and people are often sent to the hospital, with broken arms and broken legs."
Tonight's fighting competition has not yet started, but the audience has already entered the field one after another, and the bar is full of fancy girls and big muscular men. This bar is quite large, with an open space and complete facilities. Unlike the smoky atmosphere in the imagination, it is quite formal as a fighting arena.
The DJ played loud electronic music, and the crowd danced on the dance floor before the match came. It was basically a group of demons dancing, everyone shaking their heads and sweating. This type of place can easily become a breeding ground for the drug trade. Xie Lanshan's eyes wandered vigilantly in the crowd, but unexpectedly, he saw a face he really didn't want to see again, Liu Yanbo's son, Liu Mingfang.
Xie Lanshan had seen this face outside Song Qilian's wedding hall. On the huge welcome poster, he is the man standing beside the bride, and he is the only male protagonist of this love fairy tale. A face with wide cheeks and big eyes, a fairly upright face, but an unpleasant demeanor. He smiled very complacently, as if to announce to everyone that the flower around him was finally in the right place.
There is another person beside Liu Mingfang, the Chinese collector Li Guochang, who is also a famous art critic. When he was young, he was said to be known for his sharp tongue, and he often criticized the painter's poor painting skills. After getting old, I am more open-minded. Now I focus on ancient Chinese calligraphy and painting. In recent years, I have been trying to find the national treasures lost abroad. This time I came back to China to donate collections.
Liu Ming was eating this bowl of rice, and he was dealing with collections, so he made a special appointment with Li Guochang, trying to persuade the other party to keep the paintings in the collection, and to persuade the other party not to donate the paintings, but to auction them.
Li Guochang was noncommittal. He heard that Han Hai had a very famous fight bar, and he wanted to open his eyes in his words. Liu Ming let the host follow the guest's wishes and hurriedly brought people here.
He also did not expect to meet Xie Lanshan here.
Liu Mingfang has always disliked Xie Lanshan. Although they are middle school classmates, although their parents still have some friendship.
He blamed the existence of Xie Lanshan for his failed marriage.
"Hey, isn't this Captain Tao of our city bureau's criminal police team, is he here with taxpayer money for entertainment?" Thanks to the friendship between his parents, Liu Mingfang also knew Tao Longyue naturally, and he raised his hand to greet him. "Hey, I just wanted to ask one more question, is this kind of place where people break their arms and legs at every turn, is it legal
The words were very rude, and Xie Lanshan was deliberately ignored.
Tao Longyue was a little embarrassed and turned to look at Xie Lanshan: "Is this... legal?"
Turning a deaf ear to Tao Longyue's words, Xie Lanshan seemed to be reminded of some unpleasant memories by Liu Mingfang, pursed his lips tightly, and did not speak.
"Of course it's legal." A man's voice sounded behind the two criminal policemen, cold and low, but very pleasant. "In 2014, there was a passage in "Several Opinions on Accelerating the Development of the Sports Industry and Promoting Sports Consumption", in order to further accelerate development In the sports industry, social forces are encouraged to participate.”
Tao Xie and the two turned their heads in response to the sound, and it was indeed Shen Liufei.
Shen Liufei wore a white shirt and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. The glasses-wearing appearance Tao Xie had never seen before. His noble, indifferent and abstinence temperament was quite out of tune with this hot-blooded place.
Liu Mingfang ate it and was about to attack Shen Liufei: "Who are you?"
"In 2007, Mr. Li returned Fu Baoshi's huge original work, and in 2013, he declined the instigation and inducement of many collection institutions, and personally presented Zhu Yunming's large grass scroll." Shen Liufei didn't look at Liu Mingfang, but turned to Li Guochang beside Liu Mingfang, and gave him a slight look. Bowing his upper body, "I personally admire Mr. Li very much, not only because of these rare and authoritative treasures, but also because of the open mind of 'hidden joy'."
"I didn't expect you to understand Chinese painting and collection so well at such a young age." Li Guochang nodded straight to Shen Liufei, his face full of admiration. In a blink of an eye, he seemed to remember something, turned his head and said to Liu Mingfang, "I definitely want to donate this painting, so don't persuade me again."
Xie Lanshan and Tao Longyue looked at each other and laughed. Xie Lanshan was especially at ease, he knew that Shen Liufei was deliberately raising the bar, while wearing a high hat to the old collector, he slapped Liu Mingfang with a sap without leaving a trace.
Liu Mingfang looked at the old man like this, knowing that he had talked for two hours in vain, and took a sip of beer.
Shen Liufei didn't stay where he was to listen to people compliment him. As the song ended, he looked back at the DJ and made a gesture. It seems that he is very familiar with the DJ here. What he means is to change the song. The DJ immediately followed suit and changed to a familiar tango.
Shen Liufei bowed slightly to Xie Lanshan and handed out his palm: "Let's dance."
Xie Lanshan was hesitating, Tao Longyue shouted first: "How can you dance? You forgot how many feet did you step on Song Qilian when you graduated from high school?"
The educational environment in China is different from that of old America. There are basically no school dances, so the class cadres at that time organized it on a whim. The boys wore cheap rented tuxedos with ridiculous black bow ties, and the girls wore ankle-length dresses. So whether Xie Lanshan has any artistic skills, Tao Longyue still knows the bottom line.
Shen Liufei was still waiting, and patiently stretched out his hand: "Don't you dare?"
Tao Longyue pulled Xie Lanshan's sleeve straight to the side, meaning you kid, be careful not to make a fool of yourself, but Xie Lanshan was completely bewitched by Shen Liufei, and he handed over his hand generously without any fear.
The person just stepped on the dance floor, and then turned back: "Wait."
Xie Lanshan took a hairpin from the head of a lady beside him. He tucked his hair back into his head, tied it in a small braid, and secured the braid with the flowery hairpin. Very beautiful shape, not feminine, but also fits his face very well.
Xie Lanshan smiled at Shen Liufei, his eyes sparkling: "This is how you like it."
The flickering red light, blurred and enthusiastic, makes people feel like a dream.
Xie Lanshan didn't skip tango, to be exact, he didn't dance, but under the leadership of Shen Liufei, he got started very quickly, and after dancing for a while, even his neck movements became decent. Shen Liufei's hand was always gentlemanly around his waist, and every time his center of gravity shifted too much, he would bring him back and lead him to swing his limbs. During a series of frantic crossing steps, Xie Lanshan felt that a part of himself unknown to him was waking up.
Step forward and I retreat, two men shoulder to shoulder, entanglement, confrontation, wanting to be far and near, whether they want to do it or not.
The audience around Tao Longyue were cheering and applauding, only he was surprised that Xie Lanshan danced beautifully and smiled more beautifully.
Xie Lanshan's eyes were lively, and Shen Liufei's eyes were cold. The same thing was that there was no other person in their eyes, only each other.
"Some people say, 'Tango is a three-minute love for loners.'" Returning to a dance like a hug, Xie Lanshan leaned his head to Shen Liufei's ear and asked jokingly, "Cousin, do you have a crush on me?"
The rhythm of the dance music made the two separate again, their eyes met, Shen Liufei asked lightly, "How do you say?"
"Look, you follow me wherever I go. Isn't this what a secret love is?" He was sure that Shen Liufei came to him from the first day he met at the cinema, Xie Lanshan curled his lips, "If you really have a crush on me, say it, let's Just give up the darkness and turn to the light, try it?"
This statement is not true or false, it has the meaning of temptation, and it seems to have a bit of sincerity.
At the climax of the music, Shen Liufei let go and separated some distance from Xie Lanshan. Then the music stopped, and the lights in the bar turned from bright to dim—
Suddenly, after the lights were on and off a few times, a bunch of white chase lights hit the boxing ring.
The Thai boxer wearing red trousers was standing in the center of the ring, hooking his fingers provocatively at Shen Liufei.
Shen Liufei took off his glasses and looked at each other calmly. Then he frowned slightly, raised his right hand, and slowly lifted the shirt sleeve of his left hand, revealing the colorful tattoo on his arm.
It's not the right time for the guns to hit, Xie Lanshan is undoubtedly affectionate.
Of course Shen Liufei didn't follow him. He's here to fight.
