Under the firelight, the faces of the two were shadowy.

"How is your sister?" Lin Xi wrapped in a blanket and shrunk into a chair to look up at him.

Duan Xuyang pulled a chair beside her and sat down not far away, "Sleep, I just touched her forehead, maybe she has a low-grade fever." Trouble Sister Lin Xi. ”

"What about you, do you have a cold?" In the middle of winter, the cold air in the air is already overwhelming, not to mention the icy lake.

"My sister was born frail and sickly, and her immunity is not very good. I didn't let her go into the water to play the kayak, but she cried and made a fuss, and I couldn't force myself to agree. ”

"Well, the little girl is quite pitiful, too. Lin Xi said with emotion. She can be regarded as a young widower, but she is luckier than others, and she does not have to worry about food and clothing.

"Since you're half-siblings, what about your mother?"

Duan Xuyang asked Lin Xi for a cigarette, and lit it on the fire in the brazier.

The boy's young face was thin, and his cheeks were slightly sunken with the action of smoking, which looked a little decadent.

"My mom died in a car accident, and I was a few years old at the time. My dad should love my mom very much, but he has to look forward to life no matter what. He married Duan Qing's mother, I was very opposed to it at first, but seeing that they really loved each other, I slowly let it go. ”

Duan Xuyang said very indifferently, his eyes were not shocked, Lin Xi was surprised, he also had a mature and unpretentious side.

The boy's demeanor is just like when she talks about her life experience, she has already digested all the hardships and frustrations, and let go of the sudden attitude that only people in the past can have.

The two of them caught fire, and the outline was blurred and soft.

The campfire burned in the air, and after the damp branches burned, sparks splashed and crackled in the air.

Lin Xi stared at the orange fire swaying wantonly in the wind in front of him, stunned.

If what he said was true, there were many similarities between the two people's family backgrounds, and she even felt that this led to overlapping personalities and things.

The mind was slowly eroded by empathy, maybe it was because she had a face, so she could see through Duan Xuyang's mask at a glance, because she was the same kind of person.

are using a positive face to hide the depression in their hearts and work hard to treat the world.

Lin Xi took a sip of wine, picked up the match beside him, struck one, and threw it into the blazing brazier.

Seeing this, Duan Xuyang said, "Does Sister Lin Xi also like to play with matches?"

Lin Xun half-closed his eyes, and his pupils reflected the orange flicker, "Fire is such a thing, if it is too far away, it will not be hot, and if it is too close, it will burn itself." If you master the degree, you can hook people who are deeply involved in it. Something a little dangerous, always makes people have some obsessions and desires. ”

She said a profound feeling, and she didn't understand a thing or two after saying this, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "My parents never let me make a fire when they were alive. But now that they are gone, no one cares about me, and I wish someone would come out and stop me when I play with matches, and children should not play with fire, it is dangerous. ”

Duan Xuyang leaned in and snatched the matchbox in her hand, with a serious expression, but in the tone of speaking to the child, "Children, don't play with fire, it's dangerous." ”

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment. She just sighed about life, and he really cooperated in acting in a play.

Random looked away indifferently, took the last puff of his cigarette, and flicked the butt into the brazier.

A few more sparks exploded in the air, and with a few smokes, they rushed into the sky ethereally, and then dissipated into the darkness in a few moments.

Duan Xuyang looked at the sparks, "When I used to come here with my parents, we would go to catch fireflies in the summer. There are no fireflies this season, and those sparks are quite similar. ”

Lin Xi stared at the cluster of fires for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Do you think fireflies are beautiful?"

This is not a question, not a rhetorical question, but a question.

"Firefly in English is Firefly. Like fire, it is fascinating to see from a distance when it glows. and like flies, ugly when dim up close. People who think it's beautiful may just imagine its wonderful gesture based on other people's descriptions. ”

Lin Xi yawned, not wanting to talk more, he was really tired these days.

"Sister Lin Xi, rest early, I'm sorry for you today. Duan Xuyang was very good at looking at the eyes, and got up wrapped in a blanket.

"Well, you go and rest. Lin Xi sat on the chair and didn't move when he spoke, and his eyes continued to stay in the flickering firelight.

"Sister Lin Xi, good night. See you tomorrow morning. ”

"Hmm. ”

Ye Zeyan's missed calls and text messages were lying on her mobile phone, asking her what she was doing.

She would love to give him a call and hear what he had to say.

Listen to him say "good night" to her.

But his finger was on the screen, and he hesitated for a moment and just pressed send.

【At the holiday villa, I plan to relax for a few days and go back to the city. 】

When encountering Duan Xuyang's matter, it is better to say it in person.

She was afraid that the two of them who couldn't explain clearly on the phone and made trouble would be unhappy.

After returning to the bedroom, Lin Xi locked the door and called You Yang, "Help me check on Duan Xuyang." ”

*

Men wake up with congestion in the abdomen, while some women wake up with congestion in the brain.

For example, Lin Xi had a spring dream last night for some reason, in which Ye Zeyan pressed her on the blue sofa of his house and asked her to shout "Captain Ye" over and over again.

When he woke up, he thought back to that scene, and Lin Xi's face turned red when he rubbed it. Wrapped in a quilt, he rolled in shame on the bed.

Until there was a text message from the man lying in the phone in the morning, saying that he was back in Nancheng today.

Lin Xi found that she just missed him. So think about it day and think about it night.

"I'm waiting for my flight. The man's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Is it such an early flight? Captain Ye hasn't seen me for two days, I can't think about it, and I want to go back to Nancheng quickly?" Lin Xi was not ashamed to say it, but he was ashamed of himself, and pulled the quilt on his face, covering his small face, covering his ears, and stealing the bell.

Ye Zeyan got goosebumps all over his body, glanced at his parents beside him, got up and walked to the glass window, looked down at the staff who were carrying passengers' luggage on the tarmac, and laughed a little in his voice, "You know everything, what else do I say." ”

"Say you miss me......" Obviously, she misses him, but she wants the other party to admit it first.

Ye Zeyan, "......"

Just as he looked at the lack of people around him, and was about to speak, the little woman on the other end of the phone said, "Forget it, I don't expect you old straight man to say such sensual things." ”

"......" He didn't say anything, but at this time there were people coming and going around the airport.

"What are you doing?" Ye Zeyan asked, wanting to quickly sweep this stubble over.

"Miss Captain Ye. ”

"I'll land in Nancheng at noon, will you go back to the city today?"

Lin Xi opened the floor-to-ceiling window and walked to the terrace, "I may not be able to do it today, I want to stay here in the resort for another two or three days to relax, there is a big light with me, you don't have to worry." ”

The boarding notice came from the airport radio, and Lin Xi asked before he hung up the phone, "If Captain Ye is not busy in the past two days, why don't you come to me?" It is less than an hour's drive from the city. ”

Ye Zeyan's steps stopped and glanced at his parents not far away.

And Ai Xin. Because she officially joined the Jingshi Nancheng branch after the year, and this time she flew to Nancheng with their family.

The color at the bottom of his eyes sank, "Okay." Send me an address and I'll come over tonight. ”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xi explained to the housekeeper, ran along the lake by himself, took a bath after coming back, and didn't see the Duan brothers and sisters downstairs until it was close to noon.

"Sister, sister, what do you want to eat for lunch?" Duan Qing greeted her, she was not timid at all, and her way of speaking was the same as Duan Xuyang.

Sure enough, it's not a family that doesn't enter the door.

"I may not eat at noon, where is your villa? I'll ask the housekeeper to take you back. ”

Lin Xi also sneezed as he spoke. She also seemed to be suffering from a cold.

Duan Xuyang first cared, and then waved his hand, "No need, I've been bothering Sister Lin Xi for a night." We can kayak back on. ”

"Huh?" Duan Qing pursed her lips when she heard her brother say this, "Don't, I still have a low-grade fever, and I'm so tired." ”

Lin Xi looked at the little girl's soft and weak appearance, and her motherhood was furious, "Your sister is still sick, and it's not good to get cold again." The butler has a pickup truck, so let him help bring the kayak back. ”

"That," Duan Xuyang said embarrassedly, "Thank you, Sister Lin Xi." ”

When a few people arrived at the garage, Duan Qing didn't know the value, but he was attracted by the appearance of the supercar, and his eyes lit up all of a sudden.

"Wow, sister, is this your car?

Duan Xuyang also saw it as soon as he entered the garage, but he didn't take a few glances when he was moving the kayak, and now Duan Qing opened his mouth, he could take a closer look in a bright way.

Lin Xi hooked his lips and smiled at Duan Qing, but that smile didn't last for a few seconds, and he suppressed it after seeing Duan Xuyang approaching.

Even if she has empathy and empathy, she can hear from others that the rumor that he likes to cling to the rich second generation has not been eliminated from her small brain capacity.

Seeing off the brother and sister, Lin Xi closed the garage and walked back.

She called You Yang again to ask about the investigation, but no one answered.

got on the plane, Ye Zeyan took advantage of the reason to talk about work, and Ye Youliang was in a row and sat by the window. It's just that after the plane took off, he didn't say a few words, he just supported the armrest with his arms and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Originally, he just borrowed Ye Dad's body to avoid Ai Xin's suspicion.

He wasn't tired, his mind was full of thoughts.

I've been resting for nearly a month since my right hand was fractured, and I'm about to return to work, so I started thinking about a few cases that I hadn't solved before when I was free yesterday.

Ye Zeyan originally planned to find Li Zhiqing for questioning after capturing the human trafficking group and rescuing Song Xiaoran.

Because the last time I saw Li Zhiqing was when I picked up Parson at the entrance of the hospital a few months ago to see off the plane.

When he waited for Parson, he saw Li Zhiqing coming out of the hospital and getting into a black SUV, and after monitoring and comparison, he was in the same vehicle as Song Xiaoran when he disappeared.

Moreover, she and Jinya, who was killed by arsenic poisoning, were still college roommates.

The day before yesterday, Lin Xi mentioned that she was Brother G's daughter-in-law, and now she was imprisoned by Brother G......

Li Zhiqing is very suspicious, but what role did she play in this.

Mastermind, accomplice, or instigated?

Is it said that people are imprisoned, or is it just a cover for external attacks?

The man rested his fingers on his temples and furrowed his brow.

Every step of the police seems to be one step behind the black hand who manipulates everything behind the scenes.

Ye Zeyan cursed softly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that Ai Xin had changed places with Ye Youliang at some point and was sitting beside him.

He glanced at her, his mind cluttered with thinking about the case, and when he saw Ai Xin beside him, his mood became more and more irritable.

Under the chain reaction, the case couldn't be sorted out, and the lowered voice was covered with a layer of sarcasm, but the tone of the mouth was tepid, "Ai Xin, this is really boring." ”

Ai Xin's legs were folded, and she was casually flipping through the magazine, unfazed by the man's words.

*

During the Chinese New Year, Big G stayed in Mingyu, so after the flight landed in Nancheng at noon, the four of them returned to Mingyu.

Ye Zeyan didn't even enter the house, and planned to take the car and go back to the bureau. was stopped by Ye Mu Yu Shumei, "It's not that hour, you send Ai Xin back to Jianglan No. 1 first." I told Grandpa Ai before, Ai Xin is far away from home, you should take care of it more. ”

Ye Zeyan lifted his eyelids, his black eyes were as deep as an abyss, and when Ai Xin got into the car, he stepped on the accelerator suddenly without waiting for her to sit down.

Ai Xin turned her head and stared at the man with slightly sullen eyes for a few seconds.

And Ye Zeyan just had a handsome face, holding the steering wheel with one hand and driving the car without squinting.

Ai Xin staggered her gaze and looked away, and teased in a flirtatious tone, "Ye Zeyan, it's quite boring for you to do this." ”

"If it's boring, don't dwell on it. ”

"Huh. ”

Sending Ai Xin downstairs, Ye Zeyan turned his head and went back to the police station.

Colleagues also came back to work one after another, "Yang Li, come to my office." ”

Seeing that the other party closed the door, Ye Zeyan opened his mouth and ordered, "You go and check Li Zhiqing's background, if you can, it is best from birth to the present." ”

Yang Li was stunned, check so far?

"And her whereabouts for two years. ”

"So much?" Yang Li opened her eyes, she would be busy after resuming work in the New Year, she was mentally prepared, but she didn't expect her captain to be so ruthless.

Ye Zeyan didn't want to explain too much before he reached a conclusion, so he raised his eyebrows on one side without speaking.

Yang Li has been working with him for several years, and she has figured out his attitude, closed her mouth and turned her head to go out to work.

Liu Fen had spoken for Li Zhiqing many times before, and Ye Zeyan was worried that his subjective assumptions and his good impression of Li Zhiqing would interfere with his objective judgment of Li Zhiqing.

So I told Yang Li to investigate this matter.

Bar Street used to be Brother G's power, but now it is all included in Wen Renjin's bag. Judging from the current situation, Brother G may still have remnants of power.

Although Chen Zhibiao became a scapegoat for Jin Ya's murder, after all, the victim's body was left with rape X water and poison arsenic, and the time of death was earlier than the time when Chen Zhibiao picked up the body.

So the real murderer is someone else. This was a conclusion he had made early on.

So is it Li Zhiqing, is it Brother G who imprisons her, or is there some other force?

Without a clue, it is easy to get into a dead end, Ye Zeyan interrupted his train of thought and walked outside the police station, touched the cigarette from his pocket, took out a lighter, and lit it with a "snap".

He took a deep breath between his thin lips and slowly exhaled blue-white smoke from his mouth and nose.

At the moment everything is just speculation, there is no evidence.

The resolute face under the short black hair, because of a thought, turned his expression and put out the cigarette at his feet, and strode towards the information room.
