The front end of the power was a hard, blunt object that appeared without warning. If Lu Yan hadn't turned around in time, he would have been pushed against his back by that object.

When the subway arrived, people rushed up and she was trapped in the crowd. Not only could she not be able to confirm who was behind her just now, but it became extremely difficult to maintain her balance.

The danger was still around her, and she was in a panic. On the one hand, she wanted to leave as soon as possible, and on the other hand, she was eager to find out what happened.

After finally breaking out of a tight encirclement, before she had time to look back, she was knocked head-on by a few teenagers who were rushing to the subway.

This hit was very heavy, and the moment Lu Yan fell, there was a sharp pain in her right wrist.

The next moment, the reminder to "close the door" sounded behind her. She knew that the subway was going to leave soon, so she ignored the wound and looked back at the subway car behind her.

The cool-toned lights illuminated the faces of everyone in the carriage with a strange pallor. At first glance, everyone seemed strange and alienated. In order to pass the time, most people took out their mobile phones as soon as they got in the car. into silence.

Out of apology, the teenagers still stood by the door and shouted at her, "Sister, I'm sorry."

Lu Yan was silent for a moment, her eyes swept across everyone's face in turn.

Just as the car door closed, she finally noticed a woman in the corner.

The woman was wearing a hooded black down jacket and a white mask, her face was well hidden. When Lu Yan looked at her, she kept her head down.

Lu Yan stared at the woman for a few seconds, remembering the reminder from Jiang Chengyi's phone, although she was full of doubts, she didn't dare to stay any longer, and she was about to stand up against the ground.

At this moment, someone shouted from behind, "Lu Yan."

Her heart skipped a beat, and when she turned back, the sound of footsteps had reached her, followed by a pair of strong arms pulling her up.

It is Jiang Chengyi.

There was sweat on his forehead and his breathing was fast, and he could see that he was walking fast on the way out.

The moment she met his gaze, Lu Yan suddenly lost her senses. On that night a few years ago, after she said that resolutely, the smile on his face froze for a moment, and his eyes at that time were somewhat similar to those at the moment.

Her thoughts suddenly drifted far away, she looked at him quietly, and said softly, "Jiang Chengyi."

But Jiang Chengyi's gaze only stayed on her face for a short while, then quickly moved away, and then searched on the empty platform.

"Where's that person?" His voice was a little lower than usual, but his tone was cold, "The person who followed you just now."

Lu Yan shook her head, it was not too late, and new passengers were pouring in constantly on the platform, she looked around unconsciously, trying to sort out her thoughts: "I should have already taken the subway, but there were too many people just now, so I don't think so. I'm sure, I only know what that person used to hold my back, if you hadn't called me to remind me, I wouldn't have thought of avoiding it, but I still haven't figured out what that thing is."

Jiang Chengyi still stared at the crowd on the platform, and said coldly, "It should be something like a stun gun."

"Stun gun?" Lu Yan was stunned.

Jiang Chengyi took out his mobile phone and started dialing: "This kind of thing has a higher current than the ordinary electric stun guns on the market. People who are attacked will lose consciousness instantly. It has always been a controlled item."

Lu Yan felt a chill on her back.

When the call was connected, Jiang Chengyi glanced back at Lu Yan's injured hand, confirmed that it was just a skin injury, and said nonchalantly, "Leave here first."

After coming out of the subway station, the two of them walked towards the Land Rover on the side of the road.

There were people in the car, and when they saw them coming, that person got off the main cab: "Team Jiang."

Greeting Lu Yan again: "Little Doctor Lu."

Lu Yan recognized the man as Lao Qin, and nodded to him: "Officer Qin."

After getting in the car and sitting down, Lao Qin asked Jiang Chengyi, "Team Jiang, what happened just now?"

Jiang Chengyi started the engine: "When I was passing the intersection, I found someone was following her. After all, she was a high school classmate, so I reminded her."

Lu Yan lowered her eyes and slowly buckled her seat belt.

Lao Qin didn't care about touching Jiang Chengyi's words, and looked back at Lu Yan in surprise: "Doctor Xiao Lu, do you realize that someone is following you?"

Lu Yan thought for a while and said, "When I was waiting for the green light at the crossroads, I once felt that someone behind me wanted to get close to me, but the green light soon came on, and then I entered the subway station, and then I saw that there was nothing around me. Suspicious people, don't think about it anymore."

Old Qin scolded: "++, that bastard is really bold. Doctor Lu, think about it, have you offended someone recently."

Lu Yan frowned: "I can't remember who I offended, but I have encountered a lot of strange things recently, and I don't know if there is any necessary connection with what happened tonight."

Lao Qin's expression turned solemn: "Doctor Lu, in terms of vigilance, you are not as good as our criminal investigators. Since we happened to meet tonight, you might as well tell me what happened recently, and let me and Team Jiang Analysis and analysis for you, I don't mean anything else, that is, young women like you must pay more attention to safety on the way home when they get off work late. Although there are many good people these days, there are also many bad people, Wang Qianqian from your unit The case is still under investigation—"

The speed of the car suddenly slowed down, and Lao Qin was forced to interrupt his words. He turned his head and saw that Jiang Chengyi had already driven the car back to "Yifeng Park Bay". As the car drove deep into the community, the eye-catching greenery and ingenious lighting designs slowly unfolded like a picture scroll. He closed his voice and couldn't help looking out the window with admiring eyes.

At this time, Lu Yan also discovered that she had actually driven to Songshan Road, sitting in the back seat, she couldn't help showing a puzzled look.

Jiang Chengyi looked straight ahead and said lightly: "Tonight that person not only followed you, but also attacked you twice. Just moving out of Nanshanxiang Community or staying in a hotel can no longer guarantee personal safety, and I suspect that you have encountered It's a bit related to the case at hand, and you'd better not leave the police protection area until the identity of that person is verified tonight."

Lu Yan was stunned for a moment.

However, Lao Qin suddenly sat up straight: "Jiang team, I said that the surveillance video you watched today is so familiar. It turned out to be the entrance of the unit in the neighborhood of Nanshan Lane. We went to the Chaozhou restaurant the day before yesterday and happened to pass by. The doctor lives there too. Team Jiang, when you said you suspected that the burglary in Nanshan Lane had something to do with our case, did you mean the matter of Dr. Lu?"

monitor? Theft? Lu Yan raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Chengyi's profile, but said nothing.

Jiang Chengyi did not change his face: "At the moment, I am just a little suspicious, but whether there is any specific connection, we will wait for the video of the intersection and subway tonight to be released. Tomorrow morning, the people in our group will meet and sort out Wang Qianqian's case from beginning to end. once."

At this time, Tang Jie's call came in, and Lu Yan pressed the call button.

"Lu Yan, are you here yet?" Tang Jie's voice was obviously more rippling than usual, "Why didn't you give me a call?"

Lu Yan hesitated for a while, but told Tang Jie what happened tonight.

Tang Jie was obviously frightened: "++, where are you now, Da Zhong and I will come to pick you up. This bastard, who acts like a ghost all day long, from now on, Da Zhong and I will follow you every step of the way. , I don't believe that this pervert can't be found."

At this time, Jiang Chengyi had already parked the car in the garage, and Lu Yan got out of the car and whispered, "I'm on Songshan Road now, and when that person was following me tonight, he happened to be met by Jiang Chengyi—he is now suspicious of following him. My man has something to do with his case and decided to take me in for one night."

After a few seconds of silence on the phone, after a while, a strange laughter broke out suddenly: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha."

The voice was surprisingly loud, not only Lao Qin, but Jiang Chengyi looked back.

After finally stopping the smile, Tang Jie said solemnly, "It's better to stay for a few more days, your old house, the access control underneath is useless, and anyone can come in. If you hang out with Jiang Chengyi, even if he is not at home for work, At least the public security environment in the community has passed. Besides, is this world safer than living in the police's house? Hey, since Jiang Chengyi took you in, Da Zhong and I will not come here. You can call me again if you have anything."

After speaking, as if afraid that Lu Yan would make another suggestion, he hung up the phone quickly.

Lu Yan: "..."

Seeing that Jiang Chengyi and Lao Qin had already moved forward, they had to keep up silently.

The three entered the elevator, Jiang Chengyi took out a card from his trouser pocket, swiped it on the side screen, and the elevator started to run slowly.

When the elevator door opened again, it was already straight to the indoor entrance, and a man in his fifties who looked like a chubby nanny came out.

It was the first time she saw Jiang Chengyi brought so many people back, she looked a little surprised, but soon, she burst into a smile: "Welcome, please sit down." Leading Lao Qin and Lu Yan to the living room Walk.

When he got to the sofa, Jiang Chengyi didn't sit down. He just looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Sister Liu, my colleagues and I haven't eaten yet. I'm not busy with anything else. You can get the rice first."

As soon as Mrs. Liu poured the tea, she was secretly looking at Lu Yan with kind eyes. Hearing this, she was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly and said, "Hey, okay, let's have dinner." In the evening, Jiang Chengyi had already said that his colleagues would come for dinner. Dishes are ready-made.

Lao Qin hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister Liu, don't be too polite."

Jiang Chengyi said to Lao Qin, "Lao Qin sits casually, I'm sweating, go back to the room and change clothes."

Lao Qin is a person who can't stand loneliness. After looking around, seeing Lu Yan sitting quietly drinking tea, he pulls her to speak: "Doctor Lu, do you see the appearance of the person following you tonight? "

"No." Lu Yan was also thinking about what happened tonight, and shook her head, "I can't even tell if that person is a man or a woman. It happened suddenly and there are too many people around. To be honest, I saw everyone at the time. Suspicious."

Lao Qin put down his teacup and said, "Team Jiang should be aware of it. At that time, we were going to his house for dinner and passed the intersection. When Team Jiang saw that you were in danger, they got out of the car to find you. Of course, if the surveillance video can be adjusted tomorrow, That would be better."

We were chatting, and the meal was ready.

Lao Qin looked at the table, saw the table full of delicacies, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I'm so polite, I won't dare to come over to eat next time."

Sister Liu smiled and said, "It should be, it should be."

At this time, Jiang Chengyi changed into a shirt and came out. Just as he was about to sit down to eat, the phone rang.

Seeing "Mom" written on the screen, he glanced at Sister Liu lightly.

Sister Liu's neck shrank, she wiped her hands on the apron with a dry smile, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"You eat first, Lao Qin, and I'll go take a call."

After speaking, he opened the floor-to-ceiling glass window on one side and went to the terrace to answer the phone.

"Mom, what's the matter."

Mother Jiang's voice had a kind of joy that could not be concealed: "Cheng Yi, my mother admits that it was Sister Liu who called me. Mom and you took the initiative to admit the mistake. Now can you tell your mother who that girl is?"

Jiang Chengyi: "..."

Although the son didn't say anything, Mother Jiang's interest remained undiminished: "Needless to say, it must be an ordinary friend, right? Or is it a colleague? Listening to Mrs. Liu, that girl is beautiful and generous. Could it be the police flower you just recruited in your bureau? ?"

Jiang Chengyi looked into the room through the glass, Lu Yan was sitting at the dining table joking with Lao Qin, and the dimples on her cheeks were looming during her smile.

"Cheng Yi, it's okay, take your time, love relationships are established step by step from ordinary friends. When you have nothing in the future, I will bring your 'ordinary' friend back for dinner."

To go on, I heard my son say lightly on the phone: "Oh, Mom, she will stay here."

"Ah?" Mother Jiang didn't react.

Jiang Chengyi cleared his throat: "She is my girlfriend."
