Saying goodbye to Zhan Junbai, the rain had stopped, and Jiang Yuelou strode down the alley with an umbrella, briskly.
Finally found Keying Chen. He thought, with a slight smile in his eyes.
At the corner near his home, he saw Chen Yuzhi standing at the door of his house with the little white cat in his arms, and was about to walk forward, but stopped, just watching Chen Yuzhi rub the little white cat's head, tenderly Soothe it, and place it by the door.
Accidentally, he kicked a stone, made a slight noise, and was caught by Chen Yuzhi, who turned his head and looked over. The originally gentle look disappeared in an instant, and the whole face was as cold as ice, and he turned around and left.
"Stop." Jiang Yuelou shouted.
Chen Yu subconsciously paused, but immediately walked quickly to his home.
Jiang Yuelou knew that only Chen Keying's return could make him forgive himself, and he didn't expect him to listen to his words, but he still couldn't help reminding: "No matter what you are busy on the fifth day, you must be at home."
After he finished speaking, he was afraid that Chen Yuzhi would ask questions, picked up the little white cat at the door, pushed the door open, and quickly closed the door.
Chen Yuzhi was stunned by this endless sentence, and turned his head to look at the door that was suddenly closed by Jiang Yuelou in puzzlement.
Number five, what's going to happen on number five
He ran the clinic as usual and made outpatient visits, but he couldn't help paying attention to the calendar. The closer the date was, the more nervous he became, and he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing waiting for him.
Yutangchun ridiculed such a state of being absent-minded, thinking that he had taken a fancy to some Xiaojiabiyu, and he didn't think about food or tea. He was embarrassed for a while, but he didn't notice that Yutangchun was also full of thoughts.
After seeing off Chen Yuzhi, Yutangchun sat alone in the yard, looking at the gorgeous and empty stage in a trance.
The theater garden during the day is very quiet, completely opposite to the noise at night.
He remembered that night, Zhan Junbai sat high above in the box of the pavilion watching the play, and applauded when he saw the highlights, revealing the watch that was originally hidden in the sleeve, the emerald dial was particularly eye-catching.
The scene suddenly changed and turned into a small room. His mother dragged him, who was only a teenager, to flee in hastily and closed the door in a panic. There were gunshots, screams, and footsteps getting closer and closer.
Mother was terrified, but tried to remain calm in front of him. She rushed to a corner of the room, removed the cabinet, and pried open a piece of floorboard, revealing a small space under the floorboard, which could only accommodate one person.
His mother didn't give him a chance to choose at all, and pushed him in hastily, then held his face, and took a deep look at him without tears.
At that time, he was startled and frightened, holding his mother's hand and refusing to let go, but his fingers were forcefully torn apart. As the mother covered the floor, she choked up and said, "Live well, you must live!"
He cried several times, but his mother didn't move at all, and even pushed the cabinet hard, pressing it against the floor.
Not long after, the warlord soldiers outside broke in and slashed at the mother. Through the small gap, he watched his mother fall slowly, and the blood dripped down on his head and body along the cracks in the planks. Obviously sad to the extreme, but he could only grit his teeth, not daring to make a sound. He was startled and terrified in his heart, looking at the figures of those warlord soldiers full of hatred.
Among the group, there was one man who stood out from the crowd, and the soldiers respected him very much. He squatted in front of his mother's body, and slowly wiped the blood on his fingers with a handkerchief, revealing the expensive watch with an emerald dial embedded on his wrist, which was unforgettable at a glance.
Yu Tangchun stared at the man closely, but he couldn't see his face clearly because of the angle. Only the watch was deeply engraved in his memory.
This bad memory made Yutangchun's eyes flash with anger, and he clenched his hands on the table tightly.
Behind him came Yuan Zining's voice: "Brother!"
Yu Tangchun instantly suppressed the resentment in his eyes, and immediately let go of his clenched fists, and when he turned his head, there was already a gentle smile on his face.
Yuan Zining hopped over and sat down opposite Yutangchun, and did nothing else. He put his hands on the table and held his face, and just looked at Yutangchun with undisguised admiration in his eyes. .
"Hee hee, senior brother, you are so pretty."
Yutangchun has long been used to the eccentricity of his junior sister, so he gave her a reproachful look: "You're making fun of me again. What do you want from me?"
"Director Zhan, do you have an impression? It's the guest in Tianzihao's box last night."
Yutangchun tightly clenched the hand that had been placed under the table, but nodded very naturally on his face.
"It turns out that he is also a fancier. He likes to sing a song when he is free on weekdays. He has a very good evaluation of your performance and invited you to sing at home." Yuan Zining was even more excited about this news than Yutangchun.
Yutangchun pretended to be calm, picked up the teacup on the table, moistened his throat, and said casually, "Oh? When?"
"I'll pick you up in the afternoon."
unexpectedly so fast? Yutangchun was taken aback, put down his teacup, and got up calmly: "Then I'll go get ready."
"Brother, come on!" Yuan Zining didn't know that there was already a turmoil in his heart, and he looked up at him as usual, with eyes full of admiration.
It's not the first time Yutangchun has come to a customer's house to sing a concert, but it's just that she has never been in a mess like today, with mixed emotions.
He got out of the car, looked at the magnificent Zhan Mansion in front of him, and unconsciously tightened the white fur cloak around his body. He took a few deep breaths, and then walked towards the Zhan Mansion. He felt that every step was like walking on thin ice, and he was extremely firm, without flinching.
There was a half-grown boy, holding his singing outfit, and followed behind him peacefully.
In the living room of the Zhan Mansion, Zhan Junbai was flipping through a music score, humming casually.
Qiu Ming came in and reminded: "Director, Boss Yu is here."
Zhan Junbai put down the sheet music and looked up, Yutangchun was standing at the door with a smile on his face. His white cloak made him look clean and free from dust.
"Director Zhan." Yu Tangchun cupped his hands and saluted Zhan Junbai.
"You don't have to be polite, come in."
Yu Tangchun took off his cloak, handed it to Qiu Ming, and walked towards Zhan Junbai. The boy behind him bowed and put his outfit on the coffee table, then left with Qiu Ming.
"Boss Yu, sit down quickly. Is this child an orphan you adopted?"
Yu Tangchun sat down in front of the single sofa on one side: "Thank you Director Zhan." He didn't expect Zhan Junbai to investigate his matter in such detail, disgusted in his heart, but replied with a smile on his face: "It must be Zi Ning Talk too much, Director Zhan will laugh at you."
Zhan Junbai looked at him with eyes full of admiration: "The heart of the benevolent."
"It's not Director Bi Zhan, who in Jingcheng doesn't know your charitable deeds." Yu Tangchun also praised with a smile.
"Okay, let's continue to praise each other, it's getting dark."
Yutangchun smiled calmly, and the two finally chatted about drama.
"How many years have you been in the industry?"
Yutangchun bowed slightly, and told the truth: "I have been practicing singing since I was a child, and it has been a total of thirteen years."
"Tongzigong. I was in Jingcheng before, so I don't seem to have heard of your name much."
"I'm not a local, I'm from Yangcheng. A few years ago, the warlords fought in chaos, and my parents and brothers died unfortunately, so I came to Jingcheng to make a living."
Zhan Junbai sighed, with a compassionate look on his face: "Oh, it's not easy to survive in troubled times, and the people who suffer the most are the common people."
In Yu Tangchun's eyes, he felt disgusted by this face, tried to suppress the hatred in his heart, and said against his will: "Director Zhan is merciful."
Zhan Junbai was very helpful to his words, and looked at the outfit on the table: "This is... Yuji's outfit?"
"yes."
"It's quite different from the last "Secret Discussion" style." Zhan Junbai stretched out his hand to read it carefully.
At this time, Yu Tangchun stood up and suggested: "It's boring for you to listen to me singing alone. Why don't I practice a song with you today, how about it?"
Zhan Junbai was a little surprised: "Let me sing Overlord?"
"You are the Overlord." Yu Tangchun smiled slightly.
The two put on Yu Ji's and Ba Wang's outfits respectively, but their faces were plain without any oil makeup.
Yutangchun was standing in front of the table, fiddling with the box containing the sword, he couldn't help but glance back from the corner of his eye, his eyes were shining with vengeance. Seeing that Zhan Junbai was arranging his costume with great interest, he picked up his sword and turned around slowly, revealing his killing intent.
Zhan Junbai didn't pay attention to his actions at all. When he was finishing the clothes on his wrist, he felt uncomfortable and took off the watch inlaid with the emerald dial.
Yu Tangchun looked at the watch and asked intentionally: "The dial made of jade is so magnificent, I'm afraid there is no second one in the world."
Seeing that he knew the goods, Zhan Junbai couldn't help but replied: "It is indeed unique. However, to me, the commemorative significance is greater than its value." He said, bending down and carefully placing the watch on the coffee table, "This watch , it was a gift from my uncle when I was eighteen."
Yutangchun's sword had already been raised, and when he heard the second half of his sentence, he was a little surprised, and the hand holding the sword slowly dropped again.
Zhan Junbai over there is still recalling the past: "It was Emperor Xuantong who abdicated at that time, abolishing the old and promoting the new everywhere, saying that the ceremony of weak crowns would no longer be practiced. Uncle believes that adulthood is a threshold for men, and should be taken seriously. Courtesy, I gave this watch. Don’t mention him. Boss Yu, please…”
Yu Tangchun suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly walked to the open space in the middle of the living room according to his invitation gesture, and began to sing.
"Since I fought with the king in the east and west, I have suffered from wind, frost and toil year after year. I only hate that the Wudao Qin ruined the lives of the people, which only caused the people to suffer..."
While singing, he glanced at the watch on the coffee table again and thought to himself: The year he was eighteen was the year my Fu family was wiped out. Could it be that Zhan Junbai was not responsible for this hatred of destroying the family, but his uncle
Yutangchun was a little puzzled, and when he posed with his back to Zhan Junbai, a trace of uncertainty flashed in his eyes, and the hatred faded a lot.
After he sang, Zhan Junbai stepped up to the stage, and then sang: "Several generals in the Han camp were picked up with guns. Although they are brave, how can they beware of being buried on all sides! Send an order to stop sending troops and return to the camp. This will hurt you a lot." panicked..."
That night, Zhan Junbai sang to his heart's content, but Yutangchun lost his soul again.
He was sitting in the box where Zhan Junbai was watching the play that day, looking out the window, dazed, as if a knot had been twisted in his mind, and he didn't know when it would be untied.
Under the rockery, Yuan Zining was holding an orange, looking around while walking, when she looked up and saw Yutangchun sitting by the window, she waved happily and shouted: "Senior Brother!" Running up the rockery.
"Brother, look I brought you oranges!"
Yutangchun was as close to this junior sister as if he was his own sister, poured a cup of hot tea for her, and said with a smile, "It's winter, where did you get oranges?"
Yuan Zining sat down out of breath, holding a teacup to keep warm, her face was flushed, and her smile was like a flower: "It's just because it's winter, so it's rare. I went to the Li family singing with my senior sister today. I don't want to give it to the master of the Li family." Eat it, I secretly put it in your clothes and brought it back for you. Try it quickly, is it sweet or not?"
"Eat it, senior brother doesn't like oranges." Yu Tangchun was in a bad mood, but looking at Yuan Zining who was full of enthusiasm, he felt a little warmth in his heart, thinking that he was not yet lonely and helpless.
Yuan Zining didn't know the twists and turns in his heart, and said coquettishly: "Nonsense! When oranges are in the market in autumn, your room has never been broken, I know."
Yutangchun was not annoyed when he was pointed out, and he didn't want to let down the kindness of his junior sister, so he suggested: "Then, half of each person."
Yuan Zining peeled open the orange happily, while gossiping: "By the way, senior brother, is there something on your mind recently? You always sit alone, looking depressed."
"No, I'm used to being quiet, and it's comfortable to be alone."
Yuan Zining broke open the peeled orange and handed half of it to Yutangchun. "Okay, count me as extravagant."
She began to concentrate on peeling the orange petals to eat, while Yu Tangchun slowly peeled off a petal and put it in her mouth. She glanced at Yuan Zining who was eating so fast, and asked tentatively, "What do you think, Director Zhan is like?"
Yuan Zining was a little at a loss, not knowing why her senior brother mentioned Zhan Junbai, but she didn't think too much about it, she raised her thumb playfully, and boasted: "Director Zhan, there's no need to say this." She seemed to be Thinking of something again, he frowned, and continued: "However, his uncle's reputation is completely opposite to his."
"His uncle?" Mentioning this person, Yutangchun didn't notice that his voice was completely different from before, showing tension and sharpness.
Yuan Zining didn't pay attention to his inappropriateness, nodded, and told him the gossip he knew: "Yes, Zhan Tianqing, my aunt lives in the same town as him. He was very naughty since he was a child, burning, killing, and looting. He did all kinds of evil. He was only twelve years old, and he dared to kill people. Where he led the soldiers, blood flowed like rivers, not to mention how miserable it was."
As if that scene was right in front of his eyes, his mother's blood dripped on his head and slid into his eyes, reflecting blood red. Yutangchun's breathing was a little short, and he hurriedly stuffed a piece of orange into his mouth, trying to hide the emotion that was about to explode.
"Huh? Why did senior brother suddenly ask these things? Did Director Zhan ask you to go to the concert last time to make things difficult for you?"
Yutangchun forced a smile and shook his head: "No. I'm just surprised how their uncle and nephew could be so different."
Yuan Zining shrugged and threw the last piece of orange into his mouth: "Then who knows."
"Director Zhan is now the head of the Jingcheng Finance Department. Didn't his uncle think about getting an official position as well, and just keep fighting outside?" Yu Tangchun couldn't help it, thinking To continue to inquire.
"For someone like his uncle, killing people is more enjoyable than being an official. Oh, let's not talk about these horrible things, good oranges, which were quite sweet just now, will be called bitter now."
Yu Tangchun calmed down, divided half of his oranges to Yuan Zining, and ended the topic: "Okay, stop talking, eat oranges."
Yuan Zining took it happily, eating heartlessly. But Yutangchun turned his head to look out the window, his eyes suddenly became complicated.
His ability is too small, and maybe he needs to rely on the power of others to avenge his great revenge, but he doesn't know who he can trust, and who among the three religions he has come into contact with can face such a powerful, murderous man without blinking an eye demon. Section Chief Jiang of the police station is a man who hates evil, but given his relationship with Zhan Junbai, he doesn't know whether he will be an assistant or a relative in the end.
Yutangchun sighed silently.
After another busy day, Jiang Yuelou pinched the bridge of her nose, looking a little tired.
Seeing that he was not in good condition, Song Rong advised him to get off work early and rest instead of staying up late at the police station.
He skipped this topic, stood up and stretched, and asked, "Is there still no news from Jinmatang?"
Sun Yongren was also very tired these days, and said angrily: "This group of boys seems to have disappeared in an instant, and there is no letter at all. The brothers who have been watching from several places have been busy for several days. I wondered whether they might have gone to sea again. gone?"
"It's possible. Don't let your guard down, keep watching. Even if you go to sea, you will come back one day."
Seeing that he couldn’t be persuaded, Song Rong also took a piece of information and reported to him: “The list of kidnapped and trafficked doctors provided by Dr. Chen has found two girls and sent them home. The rest are not in Jingcheng. Like Dr. Chen's sister, they were sold to Hong Kong, and some were sold to Nanyang."
Jiang Yuelou reached out to take the information: "Give me this, Director Zhan has a wider network, I'll ask him to try it out."
He put the materials in the folder properly, and his eyes accidentally touched the calendar on the table, with a big "2" written on it. He couldn't help turning a few pages back, and looked at the calendar on the fifth for a long time, then gave up his plan to work overtime, and couldn't help but want to go back and look.
He walked to the door of Chen Yu's house, and saw that the outer door was not closed tightly, revealing a gap, just in time to see him sitting in the courtyard, eating alone. In addition to two or three dishes of light side dishes, there were two bowls on the table, one big bowl belonged to him, and the other small bowl obviously belonged to Chen Keying.
Chen Yuzhi just ate so quietly, his gestures were a little lonely.
Jiang Yuelou was watching from the door, wanting to push the door in and tell him the good news that Keying had been found. But he only moved two steps, and Zhan Junbai's words in his mind woke him up.
"I suggest you don't tell him yet. Actually, I'm not sure if this person is Chen Keying."
Jiang Yuelou hurriedly turned around and walked towards her home.
It's only been three days, so I'd better hide it from him and send his sister back to him intact after confirmation.
The calendar finally turned to the fifth.
Early in the morning, Sun Yongren whistled and tidied Jiangyuelou's desk leisurely. Song Rong opened the door and came in. He didn't see Jiang Yuelou, and asked, "Where's the section chief?"
"Big day, you can't even remember this?" Sun Yongren rolled his eyes, picked up the calendar, and shook it at Song Rong. The bright red "5" on it was very conspicuous.
Song Rong, who was always calm, was also a little bit happy: "The boat has arrived?"
Sun Yongren nodded and snapped his fingers: "Hmm. Director Zhan's people called, and they said they would send a car to bring them over, but the boss insisted on picking it up in person, saying he wanted to confirm it."
"It's all right now, Dr. Chen doesn't have to torture himself anymore."
Sun Yongren kept packing the documents in his hands, and he was beaming with joy: "It's not just him, the boss doesn't have to suffer in his heart anymore. He doesn't say anything about Ke Ying, but I can see that he is very guilty. Now, everyone is happy. The more he talked, the more excited he was, he inserted the last document into the file cabinet, and stuffed the rag into Song Rong's hands, talking like a cannonball: "No, I have to go to Dr. Chen's house and wait, so he can't miss it." Big moment for brother and sister reunion. Please, just wipe the table, finish it up for me, thank you Dade, thank you Dade."
Song Rong looked at Sun Yongren's flying back silently, then looked at the rag in his hand, and shook his head helplessly.
However, the section chief didn't let him act as the driver, but drove to the pier himself, and he took this matter quite seriously.
What Song Rong thought was not wrong, even Jiang Yuelou's eagerness was more than that. As he drove to the pier, he stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, showing his superb driving skills on the road, driving the car very fast, full of can't wait.
At the pier, there was a boat docked on the shore, and a kind-faced middle-aged woman walked off the boat holding Chen Keying's hand.
Chen Keying wore a small Western-style dress, and a hat with a gauze mesh on one side, revealing half of her small face. Although she was dressed like a young lady from a rich family, she was in a bad state of mind, timidly following behind the middle-aged woman, fearful of the surrounding environment and the strangers coming and going.
When the middle-aged woman saw Qiu Ming waiting at the exit, she nodded to him.
Before Qiu Ming could respond, Jiang Yuelou's car had already arrived, braked suddenly beside them, and stopped.
This sudden movement frightened Chen Keying, she hid behind the middle-aged woman, trembling all over.
Qiu Ming and Jiang Yuelou greeted each other, and Jiang Yuelou's eyes immediately turned to Chen Keying, who was showing a little figure behind the middle-aged woman.
"Is she Keying?"
Qiu Ming replied: "I'm not sure if it's true, but the director did find him in Hong Kong and was escorted all the way back by this elder sister."
Jiang Yuelou looked at the middle-aged woman and thanked her sincerely.
"Can her hat be taken off? I'll confirm her identity." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Chen Keying tightly covering his hat, expressing his refusal with actions.
Seeing this, Qiu Ming had no choice but to go forward and coax him: "Don't be afraid, little sister, this brother is not a bad person."
Jiang Yuelou also bent down in cooperation, trying to wipe off the evil spirit on his face, showing a soft smile. Even so, the little girl who had a terrible birth was still unwilling to reveal it.
At this time, the middle-aged woman lowered her body and hugged Chen Keying, and whispered something in her ear, which made her let go of her guard and raised her head to look at Jiang Yuelou.
"No, he's not my brother..." Chen Keying murmured.
Jiang Yuelou looked at her, feeling a little sad in his heart, and asked in a soft voice: "Then who is your brother..."
Chen Keying was a little delirious, and spoke in a nonsensical manner: "Brother... my brother has a lot of needles, my brother is good, my brother is good to me..."
These words made Jiang Yuelou confirm Chen Keying's identity a bit, and coaxed: "Take off your hat and show me, and I will take you to find brother, okay?"
The middle-aged woman moved away silently, exposing Chen Keying to Jiang Yuelou's sight. And when she heard that she could go to her brother, she no longer hid from Jiang Yuelou, stared at him innocently, and nodded.
The grid tulle on the hat was gently lifted by Jiang Yuelou, revealing Chen Keying's entire face. The part that was previously covered by the hat had some burn marks, which looked quite terrifying. The other half of the face was exactly the same as Chen Keying in Jiang Yuelou's memory.
Looking at such a disfigured and innocent face, he felt even more uncomfortable.
Qiu Ming explained softly beside him: "She was disobedient, tried to escape, annoyed the person who bought her, and poured hot water on her... Moreover, her brain was broken, and her mind is probably only a few years old now..."
Even though he felt extremely uncomfortable, Jiang Yuelou managed to squeeze out a gentle smile, and said to Chen Keying, "Let's go find brother now."
Chen Keying, who was trembling just now, finally had a smile on his face, and walked towards Jiangyue Tower on his own initiative.
Jiang Yuelou touched her face with pity, straightened her hat, took her hand, and turned to Qiu Ming: "Tell you Director Zhan for me, I will definitely come to thank you someday."
"Chief Jiang, walk slowly."
Jiang Yuelou carefully took Chen Keying's hand and walked towards the car. The two backs, one big and one small, actually reveal a sense of warmth.
On the return trip, Jiang Yuelou was not as aggressive as when he came here, and drove the car very smoothly, for fear that Chen Keying would feel uncomfortable. The little girl was probably riding in a car for the first time and was looking around curiously.
Jiang Yuelou looked at Chen Keying through the rearview mirror from time to time, with mixed feelings in his heart, both sad and gratified.
"Mimi!" Chen Keying saw something through the window and shouted excitedly pointing out the window.
Jiang Yuelou followed her gaze and saw a woman on the street chatting with her neighbors with a cat in her arms.
"Does Keying like cats?"
Chen Keying nodded seriously: "I like it, brother... my brother has a cat, for nothing, the cat..."
Although her words were intermittent, Jiang Yuelou still understood what she meant. The cat she was talking about was probably her little white cat who liked to go to Chen's house to eat and drink.
Jiang Yuelou smiled at Chen Keying in the mirror: "Turn a corner, we'll be home, brother is waiting for you at home."
At this time, Chen Yuzhi didn't know all this, and was carrying the medicine box to go out, when he bumped into Sun Yongren who rushed over.
Sun Yongren was originally humming in a good mood, but when he saw Chen Yuzhi's posture, he quickly stopped in front of him.
Chen Yuzhi looked at him with a puzzled look on his face: "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Didn't our boss tell you to wait at home on the 5th." Sun Yongren asked angrily.
"I've wasted the morning at home and now I'm going to the clinic."
Sun Yongren reached out to snatch Chen Yuzhi's medicine box, resolutely refusing to let him go: "No way. Even if the sky falls, you have to wait at home."
Chen Yuzhi felt that he was very strange, and hurriedly moved the medicine box behind him, feeling a little unhappy. "Are you still unreasonable? I'm a doctor, and I'm going to see a doctor. You have no right to stop me, get out of the way."
"Okay, Doctor Chen, don't be hypocritical. I promise, you will have a big surprise waiting at home today. Moreover, this surprise is enough to make all your complaints about our boss disappear."
Chen Yuzhi looked at Sun Yongren dubiously, but unfortunately he whetted his appetite, but refused to answer, so he threatened, "What kind of surprise is it? If you don't tell me, I'll go to see the doctor right now."
Sun Yongren scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and knew that he couldn't really stop him, so in the end he had no choice but to reveal the secret: "You forced me to say it. If the boss asks, don't blame me." He approached mysteriously In Chen Yuzhi's ear, he whispered, "Ke Ying found it."
With a bang, the medicine box fell to the ground, and Chen Yuzhi stared at Sun Yongren in shock. After a while, he strode out of the alley.
"Hey, Dr. Chen..." Sun Yongren hurriedly chased after him.
He heard Chen Yuzhi running from a distance, muttering to himself in an ecstatic tone: "Ke Ying is back, brother is here to pick you up, Ke Ying..."
But when the two of them ran to the alley, they saw a peddler pushing his cart across the road accidentally slipped, the cart rolled over, and the goods fell to the ground.
Jiang Yuelou happened to drive the car over, and when he saw this, he slammed on the brakes so as not to hit him. But at this moment, there was a gunshot, and the bullet penetrated the window glass and hit his shoulder.
"Boss!" Sun Yongren recognized Jiang Yuelou's car, shouted, and drew his gun while running to support him. Chen Yuzhi beside him had a bad feeling, and also accelerated towards the car.
Jiang Yuelou in the car reacted very quickly, pulling his gun with force, looking in the direction of the bullet, and found a figure passing by behind the curtains in a certain room of the hotel opposite.
Chen Keying behind him was startled by the gunfire and screamed.
"Get down and don't move!" He yelled, seeing Chen Keying squatting tremblingly in the back row, sobbing with tears on his face, he didn't care much, got out of the car with a gun, and chased towards the hotel.
Not far away, Chen Yuzhi ran across the road panting, just in time to see Jiang Yuelou running out with a gun.
A scene that everyone didn't expect happened. The salesman who was still picking up goods on the ground just now suddenly took out a gun from his arms and shot wildly at the fuel tank of the car.
There was a loud explosion, and the fire engulfed the car in an instant.
Jiang Yuelou, who had just run away for a few steps, was stunned, suddenly turned her head to look at the car, and shouted in panic: "Keying!"
Chen Yuzhi looked at the scene in front of him in bewilderment, and heard Jiang Yuelou calling his sister's name again. He was spinning for a while and almost fell. He managed to stand still, and rushed towards the car like crazy again. "Ke Ying! Ke Ying!"
Faced with the accident, Sun Yongren also looked shocked, and before he had time to think about it, he gritted his teeth and chased after the fleeing salesman with a gun.
And Jiang Yuelou had already run to Chen Yuzhi's side, holding him tightly, preventing him from getting close to the burning car.
"Let go of me! Let go, I'm going to find Keying." Chen Yuzhi had lost his mind, and there was only burning flames in his pupils, and Keying's happy smiling face appeared in the flames. He struggled frantically, desperately trying to rush in the direction of the car.
"Calm down, you're courting death by going there now!" Jiang Yuelou yelled at him, seeing that he didn't listen at all, so he had no choice but to hug him tightly from behind, using all his strength.
Chen Yuzhi couldn't break free from Jiang Yuelou's shackles, so he slammed his elbow back hard into Jiang Yuelou's chest and abdomen, trying to push him back. Jiang Yuelou was in pain, but he didn't let go, and hugged him even harder.
The gunshot wound on his shoulder was hit more seriously, and the blood flowed continuously, rubbing against Chen Yu's back was covered with blood.
The two were entangled like this, and Chen Yuzhi's hoarse shouts gradually disappeared, leaving only him crying in agony.
Everything around them turned into phantoms, only the blazing car remained, burning away the expectations in the hearts of the two.
Late at night, in the morgue of the police station, Chen Keying's body was covered with a white cloth, with only one hanging hand exposed, which was scarred and covered with burn marks.
Chen Yuzhihong stared at the corpse, feeling almost overwhelmed.
In the corridor outside the door, Jiang Yuelou was sitting on a bench with his head bowed, blaming himself to the extreme.
Sun Yongren and Song Rong stood at the door of the morgue, looking inside and outside, in a dilemma.
Sun Yongren asked Song Rong in a low voice: "What should I do? Dr. Chen has been inside for an hour."
Song Rong returned his helpless expression.
Sun Yongren sighed, turned his head to look at Jiang Yuelou again, and was about to move over when Song Rong grabbed his arm. Song Rong shook his head at him, motioned him not to scold him, pointed to the stairs, and dragged Sun Yongren over.
The two sat down on the steps, and Song Rong sighed, "Give them some time."
Sun Yongren nodded silently, and sat obediently next to Song Rong, but he kept rubbing his fingers to reveal his inner anxiety.
Chen Yuzhi just knelt on the ground like this, through the white cloth, lightly brushed Chen Keying's face under the white cloth, his face was full of doting, but tears fell unconsciously. His heart was extremely sad, and he wanted to open his mouth to wail, but he couldn't make any sound.
Jiang Yuelou walked to the door and looked at Chen Yuzhi silently through the glass window on the door. Anger, unwillingness, and guilt surged in his eyes, so that the veins in his temples were bruised, and his teeth were clenched, revealing a terrifying expression. expression.
He closed his eyes, tried his best to adjust his emotions, and then pushed the door in, walked to Chen Yuzhi and sat down, watching his actions, but couldn't say a word of comfort.
At this moment, Chen Yuzhi took out a hairpin from his pocket and put it on Chen Keying's hair that was exposed outside the white cloth. His hands kept shaking, and he didn't put it on after wearing it several times. But he never gave up, and finally successfully put the hairpin on his sister's hair, and then gently touched her head with a satisfied smile on his face.
"The killer should be someone from Jinmatang. The one who came at me was because I got Keying involved..." Jiang Yuelou couldn't bear it anymore, and wanted to give Chen Yuzhi an explanation.
But Chen Yuzhi didn't seem to hear it, but when he looked at Chen Keying's gentle eyes, his eyes became full of hatred.
"I apologize." Jiang Yuelou spoke again.
This time, Chen Yuzhi didn't ignore him, but chuckled lightly: "Is it useful? Can I get Keying back?"
"I'm sorry." Jiang Yuelou didn't know how to express his apology, so he could only repeat these three words.
"It's useless, Jiang Yuelou. Don't you always use violence to control violence? Jinmatang, you go and find Jinmatang, and you will be thanked by the world." Chen Yuzhi's emotions broke out completely at this moment, He pointed at Jiang Yuelou hoarsely and shouted, "Go, go."
After venting, he straightened the hairpin on Chen Keying's head again, and staggered out of the morgue.
He was walking on the deserted street at night, only feeling at a loss and suffering. The longing and anticipation for many days completely collapsed at this moment, and he didn't even know how to proceed in his future.
He knew that Jiang Yuelou was right behind him, and he didn't even have the energy to blame him, scolding him, his heart was ashamed.
In the alley, there was a bench. When Chen Yuzhi was tired from walking, he stepped forward and sat down. Jiang Yuelou hesitated for a moment and walked over to sit beside Chen Yuzhi.
The two just sat in silence, looking at the sky full of stars and the bright moonlight, silent.
"I used to come back late from a doctor's visit, and Keying often sat here and waited for me."
Chen Yuzhi spoke softly, and the scene in front of him turned into a scene of him holding his sister and sitting on a bench looking at the moon. Keying is innocent and romantic, pestering him to tell the story of Chang'e and Jade Rabbit, a scene of deep brother and sister love and tenderness.
But such a beautiful picture finally dissipated in the moonlight, causing him to fall back to the cold reality again.
Jiang Yuelou looked at the full moon above his head like him. This was originally a reunion day, but they didn't wait for the end of the reunion.
"I don't have a sister," he said, "but I know what it's like to lose a loved one. My parents died early because of opium."
At this time, Chen Yuzhi had completely calmed down: "I don't blame you for Keying, if you want to blame, you can only blame this world."
"I promise you, Jinmatang, I will make them disappear from Jingcheng." Jiang Yuelou looked excited, and raised his hand to swear at Chen Yuzhi.
Chen Yuzhi's tears fell down again, and he turned to look at him: "Jiang Yuelou, I have made up my mind. From now on, I will help you achieve this goal. I don't want to see a child like Keying suffer like this again." Unexpected disaster."
"Okay." Jiang Yuelou wanted to pat Chen Yuzhi's shoulder as a sign of comfort, but he backed away after reaching halfway, so he could only sit on the side and look into the distance silently.
After a while, he spoke again: "I think we can be friends."
Chen Yuzhi sighed: "Yeah, after so much, what else can we be if we're not friends?"
In the dark and long alley, the two sat on the bench for an unknown amount of time. Apart from the stars and moonlight, there was only a street lamp that accompanied them, covering them gently.
So the night passed.
It was early in the morning when Chen Yuzhi was sent home. Jiang Yuelou went straight to the police station without entering the house, and began to investigate all the clues related to the Jinmatang case.
Song Rong and Sun Yongren were waiting in the yard early. Sun Yongren held a paper bag in his arms, with a worried face on his face, wandering around in place, restless for a moment.
"Song Rong, tell me, the boss can't trouble me today, right? I also have good intentions. I didn't deliberately provoke Dr. Chen to the explosion site..."
Song Rong glanced at him unhappily: "If I were you, I would be honest today, do business as usual, and not mention this matter."
"No, no, I'm guilty, I am." He said, looking out several times: "Why hasn't the boss come here, this fried rice is going to be cold..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuelou walked into the yard, and the two immediately greeted him.
Sun Yongren greeted him flatteringly: "Boss, you didn't have breakfast, I brought you fried buns..."
Jiang Yuelou glared at him until he was terrified, and then said: "Is there still time to buy fried rice? Go to the pier and check for news about Jinmatang..."
Sun Yongren shivered in fright, and hurriedly stuffed the fried rice into Song Rong's hands, and rushed out of the courtyard: "I'll go right away, right away, right away."
Jiang Yuelou didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked towards the office building with Song Rong. As he walked, he asked, "How's the investigation going?"
"The front desk of the hotel said that the man came in wearing a hat, so he didn't see his face clearly. As for the one Sun Yongren killed later, Lao Zhao had already experienced the corpse, and he was from the Golden Horse Hall. When I surrounded the underground casino, I was in Saw it in a telescope."
Jiang Yuelou slapped the wall with a palm, and said sharply, "Check, sort out all the materials related to Jinmatang and send them to the office."
"yes."
The two of them flicked through the documents enthusiastically in the office, alarming Bai Jinbo, who couldn't call Jiang Yuelou after calling, so they had to go to his office in person. Knowing that they had something to say, Song Rong hurriedly excused himself to do an investigation and walked out.
Bai Jinbo looked at the documents and documents in the room, and a huge map of Jingcheng was painted horribly by Jiangyuelou. He couldn't help but sighed, "Why bother?"
Jiang Yuelou stopped the pen in his hand, and kept his mouth shut.
"Commissioner Wu's case has been urged several times by Mayor Cai, and I have been suppressing it for you. If there is no progress, you and I will have nothing to eat."
How could Jiang Yuelou not know this truth, but still refused to compromise: "The Golden Horse Hall disappeared before and was nowhere to be found. Now, they are back. I will do my best to find evidence and find out the real culprit behind the scenes."
Seeing that he was not affected by the gunshot wound, Bai Jinbo was full of energy instead, and smiled with relief: "This is the Jiang Yuelou I know. Go ahead and don't let me down."
Jiang Yuelou saluted neatly with his feet together, then turned his head and buried himself in the pile of materials.
He didn't want to rest, he wished he had 48 hours a day for him to investigate the case, while Chen Yuzhi was extremely tired but couldn't fall asleep.
He didn't want to be idle, and he was holding a basin to wash off the changed clothes. As soon as he picked up the clothes, he found that the back was stained with a lot of red blood.
There were explosions again, the sound of flames burning, and the roar of Jiang Yuelou imprisoning him, preventing him from going to death.
Jiang Yuelou should have just suffered a gunshot wound, so he stopped him recklessly, fearing that the injury would be more serious.
He looked at his clothes, sighed, rubbed his eyes with pantothenic acid, and carefully cleaned the blood.
