Su Mian was stunned when she saw the two of them for the first time.
Zhou Xiaozhuan.
In a dark and cramped room, he was still wearing the yellow coat he had worn when he disappeared last night. The bright lemon yellow color made Su Mian's mind suddenly flash with some irrelevant thoughts—every time this guy encounters a major case , always do something small. For example, putting on clothes with happy colors, for example, going to that small noodle restaurant to eat a bowl of delicious hot dry noodles, "This is a good sign of good spirits" - he always said.
But at the moment, he doesn't seem to be in the mood at all. There are still dried blood stains on the corners of his mouth, his hair is messy, his nose is blue and his face is swollen, how miserable he looks. His expression looked a little dumb, and his round eyes stared straight ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this scene, Su Mian couldn't take it anymore, and cried out, "Xiao Zhuan!"
Han Chen, who was beside him, drove with one hand and put his arm around her shoulder. He kept looking straight ahead and said nothing.
And Xiao Zhuan in the picture suddenly lowered his head and looked at the camera, as if he felt something. His eyes lit up instantly, and the tears that had been held in his eyes for a long time also fell down: "Xiao Bai! Xiao Bai..."
At the same time, Xu Sibai in another picture. Xu Sibai, who was sitting still and didn't have the slightest expression on his face, seemed to notice that the signal was connected, and looked down.
His situation seemed even worse than Zhou Xiaozhuan. There was a meandering dry wound on his forehead, his usually smooth short hair and fair face were all half-dried blood. Against his originally handsome face, there was a gloomy feeling. He was still wearing yesterday's light gray coat, which was also covered in blood. But at this moment, he stared at her through the screen with those still clear eyes. There was a vague pain in his eyes, and there was also a feeling of hesitating to speak.
"Jin Xi." He called softly. Then, nothing was said.
"Xu Sibai..." she murmured.
In front, Han Chen's car was approaching the traffic light intersection, only a few dozen meters away.
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai!" Zhou Xiaozhuan's voice suddenly sounded again, and Su Mian turned her gaze back to him. His face was red and white, and his eyes were wide. Tears fell, he sucked his nose, and with a choked nasal voice, he said forcefully: "Xiao Bai, boss, you heard it. I can't hear your voice, I can only see Xiao Bai's mouth in Move. Listen to me, Xiaobai, go, go... Save Forensic Xu! Don't save me!"
Su Mian almost burst into tears and covered her mouth with her hand. Knowing that he couldn't hear her words, she couldn't help but yell, "What are you talking about, Xiao Zhuan?"
Zhou Xiaozhuan said these words, but people seemed to be calm. He sniffed again, and even showed a smile: "Xiao Bai, we are criminal police, Xu Sibai is just a forensic doctor. If you want to sacrifice, I should sacrifice it. Besides... Besides, forensic doctor Xu is so capable, much more capable than me, He is alive and can save more lives in the future. That's it."
Su Mian kept shedding tears. It was like a sharp thorn in the throat, and it was painful to open the mouth, but couldn't make any sound. Han Chen's face was as cold as iron on the side, several cars were blocked in front of him, and he was unable to approach the intersection for a long time. He stepped on the accelerator and squeezed in between the two cars. The cars on both sides were all frightened to dodge, and they all came out to curse, but when they saw a long line of police cars behind Land Rover, they all shrank their heads back.
They are getting closer and closer to the traffic lights.
Xu Sibai always looked at her through the camera and remained silent. And at this moment, Zhou Xiaozhuan smiled warmly and said again, "Xiaobai, do you know the Black Shield Team, why is it called the Black Shield Team?"
"I don't know..." Although he couldn't hear her voice.
Xiao Zhuan took a deep breath, raised his head, his eyes seemed a little dazed, and seemed to be far away.
"Xiao Bai, there is something you don't know. On the third day I joined the Black Shield team, I met the director. It was early in the morning, I was exercising under the dormitory, and I saw the leader come over. He was also exercising. ."
Su Mian couldn't hear all the loudspeakers and clamor around him, and only listened to Zhou Xiaozhuan quietly. Han Chen's face was also more silent, the lines on his side face were tense, and he listened without moving.
Xiao Zhuan smiled and said, "I was stupid at the time, so I asked him: I'm actually quite mediocre, except for the exams. Why did the provincial government recruit me? I feel very embarrassed. You know him How do you say it? He said: Xiao Zhuan, the name of the Black Shield Team was created by me. Do you know the meaning of these three words? The people's police have always regarded themselves as shields to protect the people. Our police emblem is the shield. shape. Protect ordinary people from harm. If there is any harm and danger, come up to our shield first.
I answered: I know this, the police academy has taught it.
The director smiled again and said: As for the Black Shield team, you are dealing with the most terrifying cases; you are dealing with the most ferocious criminals. You are the hardest and strongest shield I have placed on the darkest border. Wisdom may be important, experience may be important. But the most important thing is the iron-blooded will that will never be wiped out, and never let down the people you protect. Zhou Xiaozhuan, I agree to let you join the Black Shield Team. From now on, can you do this? "
…
At this moment, Zhou Xiaozhuan's eyes turned out to be calm and bright. He looked at Su Mian and nodded vigorously, "Xiao Bai, I can do it."
Baby, I can do it.
Please choose to let me die.
I am the black shield that will never be defeated.
I am still alive.
It's just that in the future, there is one less person to accompany you. Will it be sad, will it be lonely? But I can't accompany you longer, more...
Su Mian let out a shrill scream, and finally buried her head and cried. Tears also flashed in Han Chen's eyes, and Huo Ran turned to look out the window.
"Everyone will be saved." His voice was low and ruthless, "The bomb disposal experts must be saved!"
Su Mian was choked up and speechless, her heart was hurting and ruthless, and she rolled violently. Behind the two pictures, Zhou Xiaozhuan and Xu Sibai both looked at her crying face. Xiao Zhuan's tears fell again, and he sniffed. And although Xu Sibai couldn't hear Zhou Xiaozhuan's words, he couldn't hear her words, but he looked at her so quietly, he just couldn't look away.
Twenty meters, fifteen meters, ten meters...
Su Mian was suddenly startled and looked up to the intersection ahead. Then he turned his head abruptly and looked at Han Chen beside him. At this moment, Han Chen seemed to be blocked by ice, and his body was full of anger. He looked forward, not looking at her. And she didn't speak.
This road is a three-lane road, with a left turn on the left, to save Zhou Xiaozhuan to the north; a right turn on the right, to save Xu Sibai to the south. And at the moment, they are driving in the straight lane in the middle. The road ahead is smooth, whether to go left or right, a choice must be made immediately.
Five meters, three meters, two meters...
Seeing that Han Chen's hands were clenching the steering wheel, as if he was about to turn a corner, Su Mian had no idea where the impulse came from, and grabbed the steering wheel to stop him: "No!"
"Squeak—" The sound of sharp tires rubbing against the ground, Han Chen actually stepped on the brakes at the same time, and stopped before the traffic light. The handsome face raised, stubborn and silent.
At this moment, the straight light is green, the left turn light is green, and the right turn light is red.
This is a big intersection, and a large number of people to work are crossing the road, and the road turning right is completely blocked.
Han Chen looked ahead, his hand on the steering wheel, motionless. Su Mian couldn't move. The two were just like that, frozen at the intersection.
30 seconds, 50 seconds, one minute, two minutes... This red light is as long as life and death. At this moment, Su Mian couldn't hear any sound, only the rapid and trembling heartbeat of her own.
The car horns and scolding behind him continued: "What are you doing? Can you go?" "The police can't stand in the way!"
On the right, a large wave of commuters riding bicycles is still passing through and still cannot turn around.
Turn left, only the left turn light is green.
Su Mian's tears fell silently. She hates it, really hates it. At this moment, she hated the group of seven. The phone rang suddenly, she grabbed it, pressed the speakerphone, and it was Nagging who called, and his voice was a little choked: "Xiao Bai, it's only fifteen minutes. If you delay another minute, you may not be able to catch up... "
Su Mian threw away the phone, as if she had used all her strength to shout, "Han Chen, turn left!" The moment she dropped the phone, Han Chen made a sharp turn and made a choice. The car crossed the intersection and headed towards Left galloping away.
smooth all the way.
The hustle and bustle of the intersection gradually faded away, and there was bright sunshine ahead, as well as many high-rise buildings and passers-by in a hurry. Everything seemed so peaceful and ordinary, Su Mian slowly lowered her head and looked at the two people in the picture.
Zhou Xiaozhuan still had a calm and warm expression, and looked at death as calm as home. He probably didn't know it yet, she had made a choice.
And in another picture...
Su Mian only felt a piercing pain, a bone-chilling cold. She looked at Xu Sibai's quiet and clear face, and he looked at her too, without saying anything, as if he was just sitting not far from her, sitting quietly and waiting.
However, it was as if she had finally sensed something, sensed her decision. He suddenly turned his face away, avoiding her sight. Then closed his eyes.
Su Mian couldn't help herself, but she couldn't make a sound. At this time, he saw that he raised his hand, his finger appeared on the top of the screen, and pressed down gently.
The screen went black instantly.
Is it him who turned off the communication
Su Mian stared blankly at the screen, and a few seconds later, the phone rang again, and a cold and slightly anxious voice came: "Forensic Xu's communication has been interrupted, the local branch has already arrived at the building where he is located, but this is impossible. Determine his precise location…”
—
Peace was restored in the room.
Xu Sibai put down the communicator, turned his head, and looked out the window.
Although I can't hear her voice, I can see the shape of her mouth: Left!
Go left, go north, save Zhou Xiaozhuan.
He could also see the buildings along the way through the screen, exactly the scenery on the road to the north.
…
He is not afraid of death.
He was used to death.
He regards life and death as a kind of reincarnation that everyone will experience.
Just now, he even thought, if it was him who died, would it still be worth researching if he didn't know how much the body would be blown up
But it turned out that when she made a choice, he would be so sad.
It turned out that she really wouldn't choose him.
