In City B, a jeep drove all the way from the neon-filled city center to the suburbs. The numerals that kept beating on the dial did not change at all, and they passed through the suburbs like this, and finally slowed down at a buckle after turning around, and the motorist honked his horn twice, and the gatekeeper looked at the license plate and quickly saluted and let him go. The motorist honked his horn twice, whistled past, drove past the barracks, and stopped in front of a complex.

Qi Meng opened the door and got out of the car with the information, without the slightest stop, and walked straight into the building. He quickly reached the sixth floor, stopped in front of the westernmost office, and knocked on the door.

"Come in. Li Xiaoyan was sitting on a chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and after hearing the footsteps of people, he slowly opened his eyes, "How is it, is the progress going smoothly over there Lao Chen?"

Seeing Qi Meng's hesitation, he sat up straight and put his hands on the table, "It doesn't seem to be good news." ”

"It's not..."

"When did you speak so abrasively. Li Xiaoyan picked up the teacup on the side and came to the water dispenser, "That is, you don't look down on that kid selected by Lao Chen?"

"It's not that I look down on him, I just think he's not very suitable for the job. Qi Meng hurriedly spoke.

"Oh? ”

"Today's task, he completed it in a decent manner, the key is that the kid is a little soft-hearted and thinks too much. I'm worried that he'll be taken advantage of, and that the gains outweigh the losses. Qi Meng said it in one go.

"Brigade commander, you also know what kind of person Qi Jingli is, if the roster is really in his hands. The call from ten years ago must have been made by him, there was such a city government at a young age, and none of us knew what would happen ten years later, let alone ...."

"What's more?" asked Xiao Yan as he took a sip of tea and squinted his eyes.

What's more, this kid is a former colleague of Xiaonuo, and now he also lives at the Public University. ”

"What?" Xiao Yan's heart tightened when he heard this, and he said sharply, "Didn't you check the person who appeared next to Xiaonuo before?"

"Brigadier Commander, don't worry. The people around us, we have all checked the bottom, but this kid has not been in B City for a long time", Qi Meng hurriedly explained, "The real purpose of Qi Jingli's return this time, we haven't figured it out yet. and the company he works for, ostensibly doing business, but Zhu Yeqing tried to break into their company system, but he didn't succeed for a long time. It is by no means a good stubble to make a computer expert like Zhu Yeqing deflated. And if they really came for you this time, then the easiest one to attack was Xiaonuo, and we can't take this risk. ”

"I've always been working on the Ssangyong Gang case, and it's not surprising that they see me as a thorn in their side. After Xiaoyan finished speaking, he let out a long sigh, "I'm most worried about Xiaonuo, as long as she's okay, I don't care what happens." ”

"In the past two days, I asked Zhu Yeqing to collect clues on the Internet, and found that a few months ago, an IP from country A accessed Xiaonuo's personal information through the background, although your information was secret, the other party still obtained it, and erased all traces. Zhu Yeqing went the other way, and found out through the intrusion traces he left on Xiaonuo's computer. Qi Meng frowned, and handed the information to Li Xiaoyan as he spoke.

"But you can rest assured that Zhu Yeqing has remotely installed a positioning system in the background of Xiaonuo's mobile phone, and we can find her wherever she goes. ”

Qi Meng said and came to Xiaoyan's computer, tapped the keyboard a few times, and a clear map of latitude and longitude appeared on the screen, "Now the location shown by the red dot is where Xiaonuo is." ”

Li Xiaoyan moved his gaze to the computer and frowned unconsciously, "Can you find out who is using the IP that Zhu Yeqing found?"

"This doesn't work, the other party uses a disguised IP, and it's hard for us to find out the real IP address. Qi Meng thought for a while and then said, "But during that time, Qi Jingli was in country A, so we suspect..."

"What did Xiaonuo find on his computer?" Xiaoyan's voice became deeper and lower, and his fists couldn't help but clench.

"No, but there's something suspicious. Qi Meng glanced at Li Xiaoyan, and then said, "Zhu Yeqing found yesterday that the case system of X Central Hospital also had traces of invasion, and the other party inquired about the case information of Xiaonuo who was admitted to the hospital ten years ago. But this person's IP is shown to be in China, but it disappeared halfway through the tracking. And during that time, Qi Jingli was not in China. ”

"What is the admission information ten years ago, what is Qi Jingli looking for. Li Xiaoyan thought about it and didn't come to any conclusion, "This, let Zhu Yeqing put it on my phone." Li Xiaoyan pointed to the computer and said to Qi Meng.

"Okay, Lao Chen's side..."Qi Meng hesitated to speak.

"What's that kid's code name?" Xiao Yan didn't answer, but changed the subject, "Seeing that his information is from a police family, his quality should be excellent." And Lao Chen's vision has always been good, so it shouldn't be too bad. ”

"Speaking of code names, I've never heard anyone use flowers as code names. Qi Meng said helplessly.

"Oh, Lao Chen's code name before he retired from the army was 'Full of Stars'", Li Xiaoyan raised his eyes and stared at Qi Meng, "And my code name, do you know what it is?"

"Do you still have a code name?" Qi Meng asked in surprise.

"You guys", Li Xiaoyan smiled, "Who said that our special combat team must have wolves, tigers, snakes, and leopards." Haven't you heard of the Iris-Quad?"

"Then of course we know, he is the predecessor of our army, aren't you from that squad?" Qi Meng said with interest, "Yes, although we all know that you came out of that squad, but the code name has never been talked about." ”

"That's right, Lao Chen and I are both in the iris squad, I was the team leader at the time, and he was a sniper. My code name at the time was Lily of the Valley. Li Xiaoyan replied unhurriedly, and was just about to speak again, when Qi Meng on the side took three steps and made two steps, and suddenly rushed over.

"Brigade Commander, do you mean that your previous code name was also Lily of the Valley?" Qi Meng's eyes glared at the boss, staring at him incredulously.

"Also?"

"That kid's code name is Lily of the Valley!"

Li Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled slightly, "May happiness come again, without any haze, only pure love." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, that kid said that at the time!"

"This is the flower language of Lily of the Valley", Xiao Yan paced to the window, "I don't know who he was thinking when he gave this code name?"

After Linuo ate, she returned to the room, took a shower beautifully, leaned on the bed, and her mind was full of Feng Tuo's entry and exit in this house, she shook her head vigorously, so that the absurd picture in her mind quickly stopped, but the more she wanted to stop, the more she couldn't stop.

She looked sideways at the calendar on the bedside table, and suddenly reacted as if she had forgotten something, and hurriedly dialed Meng Yao's phone, "Baby, happy birthday! ”

“.... My dear, Liu Yu proposed to me today. Meng Yao said weakly on the sofa.

"What? He actually proposed to you!" Linuo sat up excitedly, "Do you agree?"

"I turned him down. Meng Yao fiddled with the pillow, looking a little distraught.

"Refused?" Linuo didn't expect this, "Why, didn't you say before that he was perfect and a suitable marriage partner?"

"I didn't know, it was just an instinctive reaction, and I immediately refused. Meng Yao thought about the scene that had just happened.

"I've been so busy today that I've forgotten that it's my birthday. Because of overtime, he waited for me for a long time. I booked my favorite French restaurant and prepared 9,999 red roses. And my favorite jasmine-flavored cake, which tells the story of our encounter, and I was really touched. ”

"What did Liu Yu say after being rejected by you?" asked Linuo softly.

"He was disappointed and just said, 'That's the result.'" It seems that he has long known that he will be rejected, so since he knows why he wastes time and energy preparing so much. Meng Yao said puzzled.

"In his opinion, you are the best choice to spend the rest of your life with him, but I didn't expect it to work on your side. Linuo thought for a while and continued, "Maybe he felt something, so he said that, maybe he proposed at the wrong time." ”

"When he sent me back, he took me by the hand and said, "One marriage proposal doesn't work out twice, and two times it doesn't work out three times." He also said that he was going to hang himself from my tree. ”

"It seems that Liu Yu really likes you. ”

"I prefer to believe that he is afraid of trouble and does not want to spend the same amount of time pursuing others. Meng Yao threw out a sentence that made Linuo cry and laugh.

"If you think so, feel more comfortable, I have no opinion. But it's always bad to deceive yourself, what do you say?" said Lino with a smile.

"You're really annoying, you know? You always have to explain things thoroughly, can't you see through and not tell the truth?" Meng Yao threw the pillow in his hand on the ground and shouted angrily at the phone.

"Hahaha, your temper is also out, are you in a better mood?" Linuo got up and came to the window, looking at the moon in the sky.

"I'm not in a bad mood, I'm just struggling with whether to continue to get along with Liu Yu", Meng Yao said what she thought in her heart, "You said, he fell in love with me and ran to get married." But I haven't thought about marrying him until now, and continuing to do so is clearly a waste of each other's time. ”

"Why do you say that, if you don't want to get married now, it doesn't mean that you don't want to marry him in the future", Linuo rolled his eyes, "Unless you have someone else in your heart who wants to marry that person!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Meng Yao listened, and a shadow of tension immediately appeared in his mind. What are you kidding, this can't be!

"Tell me, who did you just think of?" said Linuo with a sly smile.

"Nobody! not what you think!" Meng Yao quibbled.

"Well, when I didn't say it! If you don't want to waste any more time, then see what you really want in your heart. Linuo looked at the time, "Don't talk about it, it's so late." ”

"It's late. Meng Yao got up and walked into the bedroom, "I'm so tired today." ”

"Go to sleep. Linuo was just about to hang up the phone, but suddenly remembered that there was something he hadn't said, "By the way, I may have to stay here for a few more days and tell you." ”

"What's the matter? Isn't the situation good? I patronized and talked about my business, and I didn't ask you about the situation over there. Meng Yao got up from the bed with a grunt.

"The matter here will not be clear for a while, and I will tell you more when I go back, hang up. Linuo hung up the phone quickly, otherwise as soon as the conversation box opened, it was estimated that he would be able to talk until dawn. She went back to bed, put her phone aside, and fell asleep.

Meng Yao hung up the phone, thinking about everything that happened today, and couldn't fall asleep over and over.

"Ahh I took out a can of beer from the fridge, turned on the TV to find the list of past favorites, slid up and down, stopped at the movie "The Little Thing of First Love", and clicked play.

This movie is Meng Yao's first choice when she is bored or upset, and the number of playbacks is prominently displayed in the movie entry, which is shocking. Meng Yao is one of the few friends around Linuo, and they know each other too well.

Compared with Linuo, Meng Yao is more realistic and impatient. She is rarely emotional, except in the matter of breaking from her promises. She often talks about material things, perhaps because of the environment at home when she was a child, and the word rich second generation should be able to be placed on her.

It's just that although she has a flamboyant temperament, she is not domineering, she seems to be mature and sophisticated, but she is actually a child who doesn't grow up. It's like her now, holding a beer, and her mood goes up and down with the heroine "Xiaoshui" in the movie. There is no girl who does not yearn for pure and beautiful love, Linuo is like that, and Meng Yao is also like this.

Every time Meng Yao watched this movie, she couldn't help but bring herself into it, thinking about how she would choose if she was the protagonist, and the answer was naturally unknown.

At some point, a can of beer had bottomed out, she struggled to get up, opened the refrigerator, and hesitated whether to take one or two cans, when her phone vibrated a little.

She turned her head to see that it was a voice message from Zhang Li, turned her head and took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, sat back on the ground, stretched out her foot and hooked the phone next to her, and did not forget to open the beer can.

She turned on her phone, her eyes fell on the WeChat voice, stared at it for a long time, and then clicked on it, and with the gentle singing voice floating in, she smiled sweetly.

"Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you....."

Meng Yao clicked on the WeChat collection page, more than a dozen favorite voices appeared in the list, and every year on her birthday, Zhang Zhang would send her birthday wishes, just like this classic birthday song, and her thoughts returned to the first year of high school.

"Meng Yao, I heard Linuo say that today is your birthday?" Zhang Zhang said as he packed his schoolbag.

"What, do you want to honor your sister?" Meng Yao said as she turned her head to the tension behind her.

"You know, I'm destitute. Zhang Zhang said and took out all the pockets of his school uniform, and seeing that Meng Yao didn't say anything, he then asked, "How do you spend your birthday?"

"How else can you live, just like that. Meng Yao looked at Linuo, who had already packed up and waited, and smiled, "Fortunately, there is Linuo, and my birthday after the age of six is basically spent with her." ”

"In that case...."Zhang Zhang walked up to Meng Yao, "What gift do you want most?"

"I really don't need a gift, just sing me a birthday song sincerely!" Meng Yao finished speaking and pulled Linuo out of the classroom.

It seems that since then, she has received his birthday song every year on her birthday, and it has become a habit for so many years.

Meng Yao listened to that voice many times, and the movie was nearing its end. She stood up, turned off the TV, put another can of beer back in the fridge, and then returned to bed, gently closing her eyes, and after a while, her even breathing sounded.
