"I'm back." Tang Xi dragged the suitcase into the door.

"Oh, Xiaoxi is back. My soup has just been stewed. Do you want some orange juice?" Aunt Zhang floated over with a smile.

"Sister Xi." Yueyue appeared out of nowhere and hugged her leg. Compared with when she first came, the little girl is obviously much more lively.

The empty house seemed to come alive all of a sudden.

"Yeah, it's better to be at home." Tang Xi put the suitcase in the corner, reported the names of a lot of dishes that she wanted to eat at night, touched Yueyue's head, then opened the door and entered the room, threw the coat on the bed, Pull open the floor-to-ceiling glass door of the terrace.

"Are you back?" On the other side of the terrace, Chu Li was still in his old position, with a laptop computer turned on on the rattan coffee table, folders spread out on his knees, but the awning was opened above his head.

Of course, at two o'clock in the afternoon in October, the awning can't block the sun on the top floor, and if you look at it from the terrace, you won't see the second person suffering from such a disease. That is the terrace of their house. Tang Xi carved talisman arrays in various places one after another to maintain the most suitable temperature. After all, air-conditioning cannot be used in an open place like the terrace, so it would be a waste if such a good place can only be used for two seasons a year.

"Why, didn't you go to the serious crime team." Tang Xi raised her eyebrows.

"Of course." Chu Li's face remained unchanged, without a trace of guilt.

"Well, you are an undercover agent and an expert in micro-expression management, so don't use this to deal with me." Tang Xi rolled her eyes and sat down opposite him, "Forget it, anyway, I just want to see you sitting here now , the injury is not bad enough."

"Is southern Xinjiang fun?" Chu Li skipped the topic directly.

"It's okay." Tang Xi shrugged.

After the ghost city, Ouyang Sheng is naturally responsible for the aftermath. The police stations of Pei Nanjiang City, Jiangnan City, and Qingjiang City will also jointly investigate the follow-up matters. If you want to know the result, just come back in a few days and just read the file directly.

Of course, for such a big case, if Chu Lizhen stayed at home for the whole holiday, hehe, I wouldn't believe it.

In the last few days in Nanjiang City, Pei Qingzhi signed the contract, worked as a tour guide for a while, climbed mountains, camped, fished, and drove a car on the mountain road in the middle of the night.

Tang Xi felt that it was a good time to play.

"Boom boom."

Aunt Zhang knocked on the glass twice and walked in, handed a glass of cold orange juice to Tang Xi, and put down a small package, "Mr. Chu, is the courier that just arrived, something urgent?"

"Thank you." Chu Li took the package, took out the key and scratched the tape.

"Then I'm going to buy vegetables." Aunt Zhang floated out again, and after a while she heard footsteps, apparently wearing a doll.

"What?" Tang Xi leaned over curiously.

"It's for you." Chu Li opened the box, took out a stack of papers and threw it in front of her.

Tang Xi picked up one and flipped it over, feeling a bit taken aback: "Invitation card?"

"I asked Xiao Su to help design it. After a few days, you can fill it out and send it out." Chu Li said.

"No, why should I send an invitation card?" Tang Xi was confused, and flipped through the invitation card again. The light purple color looked elegant and simple, and the front was... birthday

"A coming-of-age ceremony." Chu Li looked at her seriously.

"Ah? Oh." Tang Xi suddenly lost his face.

"Once in a lifetime, bear with it." Chu Li flipped another page of the document and said leisurely, "You are not a simple student, you cannot ignore human relations, and you have to do it on such an important day as the coming-of-age ceremony. A few days ago Bureau Tan also specially reminded me not to forget to invite him."

Tang Xi supported her forehead.

Before I knew it, it had been more than a year since I came to this world, and I was no longer the same person I was at this time last year... If you do the math, there are still quite a lot of people who need to be invited.

"The case in southern Xinjiang involves too much, and all kinds of evidence collection and investigation will take time, so you don't need to worry about it for now." Chu Li said again, "Apart from invitations these days, you have time to go to the shooting range in the basement of the Municipal Bureau to practice your skills. You can’t use guns recently, and you will come to check and accept after a while.”

"Got it." Tang Xi suddenly became excited.

"I don't ask you to hit every shot, but at least you can't miss the human target, otherwise you won't agree to the gun license." Chu Li urged.

"Got it." Tang Xi didn't care much.

She has practiced throwing knives before, and although there will be differences if she switches to a gun, she must be much faster at practicing accuracy than Xiaobai.

After the National Day holiday, the university continued to hold classes. Little things like the absence of a criminal police captain in the neighboring city will not affect the lives of ordinary people at all.

Tang Xi sent out the invitations one after another. Among the former friends, Qi Sihui couldn't come to the capital, but there are a few more classmates who can talk to her in the university. She has accepted the commission this year and has a good relationship. The client, Fang Tianyun's brother and sister, all members of the serious crime team, including the police officers who have worked with them before, such as Yan Shifei, can't treat each other more favorably than others.

By the way, Gu Ran arrived in Jiangnan City in mid-October.

It is said that he finally relented and agreed to be transferred from Nanjiang City, so he came to Jiangnan City as a matter of course under Wang Ling's subordinates. After all, the big case just completed is just a part of another big case. It is conceivable that the future Jiangnan City The city is bound to be treacherous and in urgent need of manpower.

When Tang Xi heard that Gu Ran had a one-month vacation, she asked Fang Tianyun to bring him an invitation card. After all, it was a friendship from a fight together.

Chu Li has always been swift and resolute in handling affairs, so the venue for the birthday party was naturally chosen at a hotel under Pei's name, and Pei Qingzhi also took over the job of setting up the venue.

It's just that when things came to an end, Tang Xi looked at the dress spread out on the sofa in the living room with an expression of disbelief.

"Why, don't you like it?" Chu Li stood behind her. He himself also changed into a silver-gray suit, which was rarely well-dressed.

"I said... What kind of aesthetics did you choose for me?" Tang Xi glared at him.

"Who made you lazy to choose, but this dress is none of my business. Xiao Su gave it to you and said it suits you very well." Chu Li looked confident.

Could it be that he still chooses clothes for girls? Of course Su Wanyi chose it!

"..." Tang Xi wanted to cry but had no tears.

Well, the skirt is very beautiful, pure white, with layers of lace, it looks like a little princess in a fairy tale world, but does she seem to be suitable for this dreamy style

"Hurry up and change your clothes, you are very busy today." Chu Li urged.

"Oh..." Tang Xi entered the room holding her skirt almost as if she was dying.

However, I have to say, Chu Li... No, in fact, Su Wanyi's vision is really good. The dress is really suitable for Tang Xi, and with a pair of white Lolita-style leather shoes, if Su Wanyi and Fang Tianyun are here, probably To hug and shout cute. It's just that Tang Xi is used to the casual style of T-shirt and jeans, so she always pulls the hem of the skirt uncomfortably when dressed like this.

"Let's go." Chu Li said.

"Understood." Tang Xi sighed, turned around and said, "I will be back soon!"

After all, there are still a group of ghosts at home, and there is still a small banquet at home at night.

Before going to the hotel, because Chu Li was inconvenient to drive, it was Su Wanyi who came to pick him up.

The hot-tempered female forensic doctor grabbed Tang Xi and threw her into the beauty shop. It took two hours to comb her hair up and put on a light make-up to make her clothes look better.

By the time we arrived, it was almost time to step on the spot.

Because half of the guests are police officers, and the public prosecutors are watching from above, that is, for a simple meal, there is no gift money or anything, and it is very low-key to give small gifts to acquaintances.

"Why so late?" Pei Qingzhi walked over.

"Traffic jam." Su Wanyi replied.

"Obviously you drove the wrong way." Chu Li complained.

"Didn't you also remind me!" Su Wanyi glared at him.

Chu Li shrugged and turned his head.

"Okay, okay, let's go in." Pei Qingzhi laughed.

Obviously, all the girls in the city bureau are afraid of Chu Li to death. Xiao Xue, for example, always hopes that she can have invisible skills in front of Chu Li, and only Su Wanyi doesn't care if he fights each other.

Although only ten tables were opened, Pei Qingzhi still vacated the best banquet hall, especially the super big cake rolled out with a cart, which was beautiful.

"You don't have female elders, so I arranged most of these. And Ayun also helped a lot." Su Wanyi smiled.

"I like it very much, thank you, Miss Wanyi." Tang Xi said seriously.

The people in this hall are her bonds in this world, especially those around her. No one is obliged to do anything for her, behind the willingness is the dedication of both parties.

"Xiao Tang, speaking of it, I should thank you." Tan Ju looked at her with a smile.

"Chu team's psychological test report?" Tang Xiruo understood.

"It's all right." Tan Ju nodded affirmatively.

"That's great, don't you need to go back to the doctor?" Tang Xi also curled her lips.

"Why do children care so much?" Chu Li couldn't help but push her back to the seat.

"I'm an adult today!" Tang Xi protested.

"Then we have to finish today." Chu Li said coolly, and then said, "Close your eyes and bow your head."

"Oh." Tang Xi froze for a moment, and did as he did.

It is better to listen to the guardian today.

Close your eyes, the noisy laughter around you seems to be far away, a little hazy. Suddenly, the top of the head sank slightly, as if something had been placed there.

"A coming-of-age gift, happy birthday." Chu Liqing's faint voice rang in his ears.

As soon as Tang Xi opened his eyes, a white light flashed, which was the brightness of a flashlight.

"It's pretty." Pei Qingzhi calmly turned the phone over and showed her the screen.

Although it was a snap shot, the sense of the lens was captured very well. In the picture, Chu Li bent down slightly, with one hand on her shoulder, with a rare gentle smile on his face. Tang Xi's expression was innocent and cute in confusion. The girl wore a delicate crown in her coiled hair, inlaid with amethyst, shining brightly under the light.

Tang Xi raised her hand to touch the crown, but before she could react, Fang Tianyun and Su Wanyi pushed Chu Li away, and hugged her from left to right: "We also want to take a photo with Her Royal Highness today!"

Pei Qingzhi smiled, and patiently took on the role of photographer.

Then Xia Shuang pulled Jiang Xiaoli and ran over, as well as girls from Jiangnan University.

"You guys are never finished." Tang Xi looked helpless.

"In that case, let's give you a family portrait from the serious crime team." Tan Ju also joined in the fun with a smile.

"Okay!" Su Wanyi immediately agreed.

At last, after all this trouble, Tang Xi only felt that she was just a prop doll, and she had nothing to love.

"Who is Xixi today~~~ so cute!" Xia Shuang was in a great mood as she fiddled with various snapped photos on her phone.

Tang Xi glanced at Su Wanyi sadly and got a grimace. But think about it again, isn't this fairy tale-style skirt matching the crown on the head? What a dishonest person.

The crown is different from other jewelry, which represents the elders' wishes to the younger generation: You are my forever little princess.

"Come on, blow out the candles and cut the cake." Pei Qingzhi gave her a silver table knife.

All the lights in the hall were turned off, only the flickering candlelight on the cake.

"I am really grateful to her for not letting me lose a junior I admire." Outside the crowd, Tan Ju patted Chu Li's shoulder with emotion, "Helping you with the guardianship procedures is a decision I have never regretted."

Chu Li just said "um", frowning and looking at Tang Xi who was surrounded in the middle. That Pei Qingzhi... is he too close!

"Don't be so serious." Tan Ju couldn't help laughing, "She's just grown up, and it's still too early to marry her daughter."

"Eighteen is still a child." Chu Li said.

"Wang Ling told me before that he hoped Xiao Tang could enter Pei." Tan Ju said suddenly.

"Why?" Chu Li was displeased, "They don't have enough manpower? Didn't they just call in another one?"

"Wang Ling means that he wants to cultivate heirs. You also know that other departments of pei are different." Tan Ju whispered, "The one above Wang Ling is old and will have to retire in a few years. Today's metaphysics It’s not true that there are no powerful people in the world, it’s just that most capable people are arrogant and can help, but they are unwilling to become a formal government establishment member. But Tang Xi is different. She is young and has unlimited potential. Most importantly, she can Being a consultant of the serious crime team means that she does not dislike being the director of pei."

"She won't go." Chu Li shook his head.

"Wang Ling hopes that you can persuade her. If not, the next best thing is to let Gu Ran go up." Tan Ju said, "But it is best if Tang Xi can go up and train Gu Ran to be her deputy."

"I will tell, but I won't persuade. This is her life." Chu Li thought for a while, "And, I think, she is fully capable of making decisions about her own life."

"You can figure it out." Tan Ju smiled wryly.

"Pa~" The hall was instantly brightly lit.

"What are you doing hiding so far away? Aren't you also a half-star today?" Pei Qingzhi walked over here.

"Come on." Chu Li said calmly.

When the banquet was halfway through, it was a group of young people after all, most of them were not in their original seats, and the atmosphere became more lively and free.

"Xixi." Xia Shuang gently tugged on Tang Xi's skirt.

"I'm going to the bathroom." Tang Xi nodded, got up and went to the lounge behind.

Soon, two girls came in and quickly closed the door.

One is Xia Shuang, and the other is Jiang Xiaoli.

"What's the matter? Mysterious." Tang Xi laughed.

"Xiao Li said something happened." Xia Shuang shrugged.

Tang Xi looked over suspiciously.

"That..." Jiang Xiaoli grabbed the hem of her skirt cautiously, gritted her teeth after a while, and said, "I know it might be presumptuous, but I really don't know who else to turn to. I know you are paid for accepting the commission. I can pay commission fee, I... "

"Have you met a ghost?" Tang Xi looked her up and down puzzled.

It's clean, without the slightest bit of gloom, which is pretty good.

"No, no, it's not me." Jiang Xiaoli shook his head quickly, "It's my grandpa, but grandpa is an extreme materialist and never believes in ghosts and gods. I'm really worried what to do if something happens to him."

"Your grandfather...Professor Jiang?" Tang Xi said, "Speaking of which, I haven't attended Professor Jiang's class since school started."

"Well, grandpa is just an honorary professor in the history department. He has a project recently and is not in school." Jiang Xiaoli said.

"That-"

"Xiaoxi? Where are you?" Su Wanyi's voice came from outside.

"Well, I don't have class tomorrow morning, and you probably don't either. Come to my house and talk." Tang Xi said.

"Okay!" Jiang Xiaoli's eyes lit up, and he was obviously relieved.

Tang Xi exchanged WeChat IDs and sent her home address.

"Thank you!" Jiang Xiaoli was grateful.

The three of them left the lounge together, and when they returned to the hall, what they saw was already a group of demons dancing wildly.

Only the two tables next to it are relatively normal. After all, some freshman students are still underage and cannot drink, and there is another Chu Li who is injured and cannot be drunk. However, the most unexpected thing is Pei Qingzhi. Look at the empty wine bottle, then look His face was only reddish, making one suspect that what he drank was not wine but grape juice.

"They still have to make trouble. Those of you who have to go to class tomorrow should go first." Su Wanyi said, turning the car keys in her hand.

"I'll ask the driver to pick it up." Pei Qingzhi said.

A group of students also said that they lived in school dormitories, so they could take a taxi.

The last person Su Wanyi wanted to send home was Chu Li and Tang Xi.

"I said I can drive." Chu Li was helpless.

"Don't make a fuss, that knife almost stabbed you right through, and you'll be fine in just two months?" Su Wanyi glared at him.

Chu Li really wanted to say that he was 80% better, but this completely unscientific recovery speed was really hard to believe.

Su Wanyi sent them downstairs, stepped on the gas pedal, turned around and left.

"I'm going to take my driver's license test tomorrow!" Tang Xi said.

"You know how to drive, right?" Chu Li asked while pressing the elevator.

"Yes." Tang Xi nodded.

"You took a theory test, and then I arranged for you to take the test directly from the police force." Chu Li said.

"So good?" Tang Xi looked at him suspiciously.

"You freak, don't crowd out social resources. Do you know how many people are queuing up to learn how to drive?" Chu Li glanced at her.

Tang Xi: ...

The moment the door was opened, the sound of gun salutes suddenly erupted in the room, and ribbons and confetti fluttered down one after another.

"Xiao Xi, happy birthday~" Su Huang rushed over and hugged her.

"Thank you." Tang Xi looked over one by one.

Su Huang, Shao Yao, Xie Chang'an, Aunt Zhang, Yueyue's mother and daughter, Xie Yan, and even Yu Mingfan who had been at school all along came back.

The corners of the raised lips slowly drooped down again, and the brilliance in the eyes dimmed.

On such an important day in life, one of the most familiar figures is missing.

However, soon, she put on a smile again.

It's not that Yun Qi has left, it's just a few months of recuperation, and it will be the same again soon.

Because it was considered supper, Aunt Zhang made a table of light snacks and fruit plates, which was particularly appetizing for those who came back from the banquet.

During the commotion, Chu Li suddenly said: "After a while, I will move out."

"Ah?" Tang Xi was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Where are you moving?"

"I bought a house, and I will move after the decoration is completed." Chu Li replied.

"But... it's so good, why did you move away?" Tang Xi still didn't understand, and was even a little aggrieved.

"You're an adult, don't you need a guardian anymore?" Chu Li said.

Tang Xi remembered the reasons she said when she forced Chu Li to be her guardian, and bit her lips, feeling a little annoyed for no reason. So you think I just need a guardian

"Aren't you going to ask where the house I bought is?" Chu Li smiled.

"Where?" Tang Xi asked casually.

Chu Li didn't speak, and pointed down.

Tang Xi was stunned before she realized, and blurted out, "Downstairs?"

"Yes." Chu Li nodded.

"..." Tang Xi was silent for a while, before saying in a bad mood, "Is it meaningful for you to move upstairs and downstairs?"

"I can't live with you forever." Chu Li looked at her seriously, "You grow up, you can fall in love, you can get married, besides, I used to live in the police dormitory because it was close to work and convenient. There is no need to buy a house for a person with nothing to worry about, but it is not unaffordable.”

Tang Xi was dumbfounded.

It's not that I don't know, Chu Li is right, but I have long been used to this kind of life, and I am used to having someone at home, so I don't want to change.

"It's just downstairs." Chu Li patted her head, "At this time, I look like a child who can't live without her parents."

Tang Xi snorted coldly, and decided to ask Pei Qingzhi tomorrow, since the left and right can be connected, can the up and down be connected to form a jump

"I don't want to move anytime soon. I need to ventilate after the decoration. It will be next year anyway." Chu Li said again.

"Then what, I'm only eighteen, I think you think I'm hindering your relationship." Tang Xi gave him a white look.

Chu Li was startled, and then smiled: "For a person like me, it's better not to harm other girls. Letting someone stay alone in an empty room for twenty-five days a month is not a man who can take responsibility for marriage."

"Who said that? You..."

Chu Li put a finger against her lips, preventing her from speaking later, with a rare warm expression in his eyes: "Adults, children don't care."

"..." Tang Xi clapped his hands away angrily.

"Okay, go to bed early." After Chu Li finished speaking, he got up and went back to his room.

"What... I really thought I was a few years younger than you." Tang Xi muttered dissatisfied.

At twelve o'clock at midnight, all the ghosts also returned to the bracelet notebook.

Tang Xi looked at the big bag of presents that came back by hand, yawned, and decided to get up tomorrow to unwrap it. But when he got up, he hesitated for a while, but he still looked through it, picked out the one that Pei Qingzhi gave him, and took it back to the room.

First she took off her gorgeous skirt, put away the crown carefully, took a shower, removed her make-up, and put on her pajamas. She jumped onto the bed with the small box, shook it first, and heard no sound, and then suppressed her curiosity to open the box.

Inside was a very plain black velvet jewelry box. When I opened it, I found a pair of black crystal earrings.

It is not particularly expensive jewelry, but black crystals are relatively rare. This pair of diamond-shaped stud earrings is obviously the best stone. It is crystal clear and dark, as if it has a mysterious attraction.

Tang Xi tried it, and it really was a good container for storing spiritual power, so she couldn't help laughing.

Pei Qingzhi really understood her.

Putting the jewelry box aside casually, she lay down on the bed and couldn't help touching the bracelet on her wrist again.
