When Bai Jin Xi and the others arrived following the sound of gunfire, what they saw was this scene—
Han Chen was sitting behind a big tree covered in blood, his face icy cold. Beside him is Xin Jia's body pierced by bullets.
Nagging and cold face rushed over from left to right.
"Boss! What's going on?"
"Boss, are you injured? Xin Jia she... "
Bai Jin Xi stares at his face, and walks towards him with a deep foot and a shallow foot. A heart didn't know whether to let it go or continue to hang up.
Han Chen also saw them, his eyes stopped on Jin Xi, he stood up, and said to them first, "I'm fine. Cold face, check the surrounding environment for evidence; nagging, immediately notify the support: block the surrounding area. Highway. The person who killed Xin Jia just ran away..."
His voice stopped suddenly.
Because Bai Jin Xi suddenly reached out and hugged his waist tightly.
He looked down at her.
Jin Xi also raised her head and stared at him.
Nagging immediately gave Leng Mian a wink and said, "Then let's go to work first. Boss, you are missing this time, but Xiao Bai is worried to death." The situation was urgent, and the two did not ask any further questions for the time being, and immediately pressed Han Chen. instructions to work.
In the huge open space, the two of them were left for a while.
It was the first time that Han Chen was hugged so tightly by a woman. He only felt the slender arm wrapping tightly around his waist. And her face was pressed against his chest, and in those clear black eyes, there were worries, complaints, relieved joy, and deep lingering attachments.
Han Chen only felt that his whole heart seemed to be drawn into those eyes, and he reached out and hugged her back. How could his strength be comparable to hers? She only heard her take a deep breath, her feet were already off the ground, and he was picked up from the ground by him.
Han Chen simply hugged her like that, looking at her with his eyes: "You are so worried? You want to hug me in front of them?" Jin Xi, however, was angry with him and didn't forget to make fun of him, and glared at him, "Why are you? Why don't you make a phone call?"
"The mobile phone signal was interrupted by Xin Jia." He answered succinctly, and lowered his head to cover her lips.
This kiss was fierce and passionate, as if he was determined to absorb all the fragrance from her lips and tongue, and at the same time as if he wanted to express the same concern to her. He leaned against the tree, hugged her, and kissed her so badly. It wasn't until Jin Xi repeatedly whimpered, "Okay, okay..." His lips moved away, and his black eyes stared at her close at hand.
"I'll never leave you." A slightly hoarse voice.
Jin Xi: "How can this kind of thing be guaranteed?"
"I said I can guarantee it, I can guarantee it," he replied.
Jin Xi made a light cut.
Han Chen put her down, and just wanted to explain everything to her, but found that she was still burying her head in his arms, holding her arms around his waist.
Han Chen looked at her stubborn attitude and smiled instead.
"Let go first." He whispered.
She replied dully, "I don't want to let go."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt Han Chen's hand slide onto her waist again and push it forward! She snorted softly, and her whole body was pressed into his arms again.
"Success, reinforcements will be here soon," he said. "We'll hold it like this for a lifetime."
Jin Xi pushed him away. Both of them laughed, he held her hand, and the two looked at Xin Jia's body on the ground together. His face became very calm, he squatted down, unfolded his jacket and covered Xin Jia's body.
—
The exploration of the scene and the pursuit of the murderer turned out to be unsatisfactory.
He left no visible traces and no evidence. The surrounding mountains are vast, and he easily escaped the police encirclement.
An hour later, police drove away from the scene. Han Chen drove his Land Rover with only Bai Jin Xi in the car.
The sky is already dark, Han Chen's face is indifferent, and Bai Jin Xi is also a little stunned.
"Seven people?" she asked slowly.
Han Chen nodded.
About Xin Jia's death, he did not tell other colleagues in full. It only said that Xin Jia came to him because he hoped that he would accompany him to spend the last day in Lan City; there was also the existence of the gas house, and Xin Jia himself admitted the crime of making drugs and killing people. The existence of the killer organization was not mentioned to others.
The two didn't speak for a while.
After a while, Jin Xi said, "Five or seven. We will definitely find them all!"
These words were extremely harsh, and Han Chen didn't look sideways, and replied, "Okay."
Although he only answered one word, it fell heavily on her heart. She smiled slowly and turned to look at him: "Also, you are not allowed to act alone in the future. If something goes wrong today and you become a vegetable, what should I do?"
Han Chen's eyes were still looking forward.
"Nothing. Even if I become a vegetable one day, I'll recognize you."
Jin Xi was slightly startled, and immediately frowned, "Go, go! Tong Yan Wuji Tong Yan Wuji!" She also looked out the car window and spit a few saliva.
Han Chen smiled when he looked at her. When she retracted, he raised his hand and hugged her, put her in his arms, and drove the car with one hand.
Jin Xi tilted her head and leaned in his arms, looking at the vast night outside the window, she didn't move for a while.
Are you too fond of each other? It turned out that every minute and every second, they all wanted to snuggle together.
"I'll take you home in a while," he said softly, "I still have to go back to the bureau to record a statement."
Jin Xi straightened up and looked at him: "No, I want to be with you. You record your statement, and I'll be waiting by the side."
Han Chen lowered his head and kissed her long hair: "Be obedient, your throat injury is not healed. And later, Xin Jia's family will come from Beijing."
Jin Xi thought for a while, and then agreed.
—
Sure enough, as Han Chen expected, when he returned to the police station, what he faced was the endless crying and noise of Xin Jia's family. And the pursuit of the murderer is unlikely to be so quick. Han Chen knew very well in his heart that the real culprit could be brought to justice only if the entire group of seven was gathered to the bottom.
This busy, busy until more than three in the middle of the night. Han Chen found a space and walked into the corridor alone, leaning against him to rest quietly.
Xin Jia's family is still noisy, and they can see their faces and hear their noisy voices through the window;
There are still many windows with lights on and many people busy. He can clearly see the faces of many people: Qin Wenlong, Xu Sibai, nagging, cold noodles, Xiao Zhuan...
His eyes became very heavy, very heavy.
At this time, a criminal policeman passed by and handed him a cigarette. He was silent for a while, and finally waved his hand and didn't answer.
The night was cold, he reached out and raised the collar of his jacket, and then saw the ring on his finger.
On such a night, there is no smoke as company, but she is there.
He looked down at the ring, remembering how she looked today, his heart was soft and hot, and he smiled slowly. She took out her phone and stared at her name, but she didn't dial it.
She should be sleeping so late.
What he didn't know was that, at a house not far away, Jin Xi, just like him, looked down at the unrecognizable necklace.
The moonlight was clear, she lay in bed, unable to sleep for a long time. What she thought was that she hadn't had time to show him the necklace; she hadn't had time to tell him her real name.
She is his Su Mian. The name he engraved on the ring was finally found.
She misses him so much.
Think of the shallow smile at the corners of his brows and eyes, and the tenderness and firmness with which he hugged her today. She is usually used to being carefree, and between him and her, he has always been asking, and he is more eager than her. But today, when he was in danger, she realized that since when did she completely leave him? Han Chen is not a scale against her, no one can touch or hurt her, and she can't lose it or forget it.
After tossing and turning for a long time, she picked up her phone and texted him:
"When will you come back?"
Han Chen is standing in the corridor, bowing his head in thought. Suddenly, the phone rang.
Picking it up, after a moment of silence, he walked back to the office, picked up the car keys, and turned to leave.
"I'll be back now."
Seeing this text message, Jin Xi curled her lips into a smile, but she didn't even feel sleepy at all, she jumped out of bed barefoot and ran to the balcony.
And Han Chen got into the car, galloped all the way, and drove in the direction of home.
The stars twinkled in the sky, and the night was gentle and cold.
Cases are never finished, and life has an end.
Whether it is suffering or happiness ahead.
In this life, at this moment, I just want to be with you.
