Zhao Zijian dialed the phone, but was quickly hung up by Zhou Guowei.

He put his phone on the center console, took a deep breath, and waited patiently while thinking about it.

I don't know how many minutes passed, about ten minutes, Zhou Guowei's phone called, Zhao Zijian copied it, looked at it, and connected it.

"Hey, Brother Zhou......"

"Well, I was busy just now, and it's a matter of eating again, are you really ...... It's all said that it's a little favor, you don't have to do this. Alas, okay, okay, I'm a little busy today, I guess I'm getting off work very late, and I don't know what time it will be now, huh...... Half-past nine or ten, old place, just grab a bite to eat, okay?"

"Done. That's it. ”

"Yes, bye. ”

"Bye. ”

Hanging up the phone, Zhao Zijian looked calm.

He licked his lips gently.

It's rarely done anymore, because nothing has made him nervous for years.

Zhou Guowei's voice was a little dry, with an indescribable trace of tiredness and nervousness.

I guess I didn't sleep all night?

When he sent WeChat, it was three o'clock in the morning last night.

Look at the time now, seven o'clock in the morning.

Four hours ago.

Could it be that Mayor Lu died in the middle of the night?

It seems that the death is unusual.

Considering that when we had dinner not long ago, although he was a little tired, his spirit was still very vigorous, and his face was full of red light, not like he had any disease...... His sudden death is almost impossible to be a normal death.

What's more, it seems that the Public Security Bureau has already been involved?

So, is it possible...... He died yesterday afternoon?

…………

After sitting in the car for a few more minutes, he got up and got out of the car, as expected, Xie Yuqing had already left, and the quilt was neatly folded - maybe she didn't come last night, and she didn't come?

Zhao Zijian took a hot bath, changed his clothes, went out for breakfast, and squeezed the bus to go to school - after a night, there was still no abnormality in the first middle school in the city.

However, at noon, Lu Xiaoning really didn't come to Zhao Zijian to have dinner with them.

Qian Zhenjiang and the others also sent a message in a small group of five people on WeChat, asking her if she didn't come today, and they didn't wait for any reply, so they had to go out to eat together.

After returning to the classroom after dinner, Yang Ze ran out, and after more than ten minutes, he brought back a news, it is said that Lu Xiaoning was in the middle of the third class yesterday afternoon, and was called out by their homeroom teacher, and then he didn't come back, and he didn't come to school this morning.

No one realized anything, everyone thought that Lu Xiaoning might have something temporary, so he asked for leave.

…………

In the afternoon, Zhao Zijian was a little distracted.

In all his memories related to the previous life, there was no such thing as the sudden death of the mayor of the city in 2016 - he tried hard to recall, digging into the memories in the depths of his mind little by little, he felt that even if he did not have the slightest intersection with Lu Xiaoning in the previous life, and it was impossible for him to go to his house to have dinner at the same table with him, but he should always have a little impression of the mayor of his current city, right?

In fact, it is indeed unimpressive.

Even at this time, I tried to think back, and I didn't seem to have any impression of whether there was a mayor of Yunzhou City surnamed Lu in the previous life-even if there were, more than 30 years have passed, those great changes in the world, the ups and downs of the world, those thrills, thousands of gentleness, which point is not important? Zhao Zijian is not a fairy, such as who was the mayor of Yunzhou when he was in high school, this kind of unimportant memory must have been abandoned by the brain first, and it is almost impossible to have the slightest memory now.

…………

After school in the afternoon, he honestly went home for dinner, and explained to his parents again, which was much easier than explaining to Wei Lan that he suddenly had a stomachache, asked for leave to go out, and then turned off his mobile phone and couldn't be contacted.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Zhao Zijian rode his bicycle and watched the various scenes of the night streets of Yunzhou City all the way, and arrived at the food street at about half past nine.

It wasn't until ten o'clock that Zhou Guowei came in a hurry.

When he entered the door, he said directly to Xie Yuqing: "Brother and sister, let's close." ”

Originally, Xie's mother left early, Zhao Zijian and Xie Yuqing were busy in the store together, and the atmosphere was relaxed, seeing Zhou Guowei coming in a little tired, saying this kind of thing with a solemn face, Xie Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and then took out the money, refunded the money of the three or four diners who were eating, and softly compensated for it and drove people out, but Zhou Guowei didn't let the roller shutter door fall, so she just turned off the lights outside, including the lights in the signboard, indicating that it was closed and closed for business.

At this time, Zhou Guowei had already found a plastic bag for packaging from behind the counter, asked Zhao Zijian and Xie Yuqing for mobile phones, and threw their two mobile phones into the plastic bag, tightened them, handed them to Xie Yuqing, and said, "Put them in the back first, and then take them when you leave later." ”

Xie Yuqing took it, became more and more nervous, and quickly opened the curtain and went in, and put it in the back kitchen.

After doing all this, Zhou Guowei looked relieved, sat down opposite Zhao Zijian, twisted his neck and said to the back kitchen: "Brother and sister, can you give me a bowl of fried noodles first? I'm dying of hunger." ”

Xie Yuqing agreed in the back kitchen and said, "Wait a minute, it'll be fine right away." ”

Zhou Guowei turned around and said: "It was a bit sudden, the special investigation team in the province arrived last night, and at noon, the central investigation team also arrived. The key is...... It's a bit sudden. ”

Zhao Zijian nodded and asked, "Has the reason been clarified?"

Zhou Guowei lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, spit it out, and shook his head, "It happened yesterday afternoon, that is, around three o'clock, between two fifty-five and three .05 o'clock." ”

"Mayor Lu was talking about work with Vice Mayor Qian in his office at that time, and Vice Mayor Qian went in at about 2:40, and it was said that he was talking about this year's financial planning issues, and I don't know the specific content, I am not qualified to participate so deeply, I only know, we are talking, it is said that the conversation is good, and the two have the same opinion, which is very pleasant. ”

But at about three o'clock, Mayor Lu suddenly covered his chest, he couldn't even say a word, his face was pale, and he was so frightened that Mayor Qian hurriedly opened the door and called someone, and Mayor Lu's secretary called the hospital at that time, and then looked wrong, and beckoned someone to try to send people downstairs first. ”

"However, it is said that it was not even two minutes, and before they could carry the person downstairs, they were completely out of breath. ”

Speaking of this, he took a long puff of cigarette and paused for a moment before continuing: "The preliminary examination results, the conclusion given by the city hospital is that the heart and lung function suddenly failed, but it is difficult to say what happened. You also know that Mayor Lu's lover is the vice president of our city's Second People's Court, and she is also a professional, and she does not accept this statement. According to her request, she personally arranged and dispatched a group of doctors from the Second Municipal Hospital to also do an examination, but the results were no different, cardiopulmonary failure was just a statement, mainly because the cause of cardiopulmonary failure could not be found. Now there are a few experts from the province, and the investigation team from the central government has also brought a few experts here. But the results are not yet out. ”

Zhao Zijian listened to him from beginning to end, did not interject, and only then nodded and said: "A young mayor who usually has no physical problems will suddenly die within three minutes, which will definitely make the top and bottom suspicious." ”

Zhou Guowei nodded when he heard this, and sighed again.

Listening to the stir-fry sound of Zlazila coming from the back kitchen, he said: "If it weren't for Mayor Lu, I wouldn't have been able to get up to this step...... Alas!...... Yesterday afternoon, we received the transfer, and our bureau went over to cooperate and blocked the entire floor, but within 30 minutes, our local garrison arrived and took over, and all the people involved in this matter were also controlled by the military. Supposedly, I couldn't participate, but the leaders probably thought that I was in charge of criminal investigation all the year round, so I also joined the investigation team temporarily formed in our city. ”

Zhao Zijian saw that he didn't seem to understand what he meant, so he simply asked directly: "The person who is the mayor should arrange relevant physical examinations every year, right?"

Zhou Guowei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Do you also think there is something abnormal?"

Zhao Zijian could guess what he remembered, so he shook his head, and also said in a very small voice: "I only know a little martial arts, I have never been a spy, and I have never been a killer." ”

Zhou Guowei was stunned for a moment and smiled, "That's right." ”

After a pause, he said: "The physical examination records of the past years are all there, Mayor Lu's personal health is quite healthy, but in terms of spine, maybe because of the long-term sedentary relationship, a little deformed, something else, heart, lungs or something, oh, by the way, the stomach is a bit not good, but it is also a small problem, in addition, he is very healthy." ”

Zhao Zijian sighed.

The range hood in the back kitchen stopped, and Xie Yuqing quickly brought out two bowls of fried noodles.

Zhou Guowei threw away the second cigarette he had just lit and began to snort and eat.

After draining two large bowls of fried noodles in a row, he took the mineral water bottle, unscrewed the lid and filled half a bottle of water, then stood up and said, "Take the mobile phone!"

Xie Yuqing went to get his mobile phone, he looked at Zhao Zijian and said, "I don't know how deep your friendship with Mayor Lu is, this kind of thing, we can't get involved." ”

Zhao Zijian nodded, "I understand." ”

But he asked again: "What about you sending me WeChat...... Are you alright?"

Zhou Guowei shook his head, "At that time, it was midnight, and the matter had already spread, and everyone who should know knew knew it." No one is going to pay attention to this kind of thing, don't worry!"

Zhao Zijian nodded.

Xie Yuqing took the mobile phone out, he untied the bag, took out his mobile phone, then handed the bag to Xie Yuqing, took out twenty yuan and handed it over, and said, "Brother and sister, it's hard work!"

Xie Yuqing insisted on not accepting it, and Zhao Zijian said, "I'm in for a treat." ”

So Zhou Guowei smiled, put away the money, and said, "That's it, let's go." He turned around and walked out of the noodle shop.

Xie Yuqing stood there, took out her and Zhao Zijian's mobile phones, handed them over, and asked cautiously, "I heard from you...... Mayor Lu is dead?"

Zhao Zijian nodded, took the phone, and said, "I can't hide it, it is estimated that tomorrow will be full of wind and rain." ”

Xie Yuqing was stunned for a while.

Ordinary people generally don't pay much attention to who the mayor is, but when an incumbent mayor dies suddenly, they are still a little stunned.

After a while, he asked, "Director Zhou came here to tell you about this?"

Zhao Zijian nodded and said, "I used to know Mayor Lu more or less, and I had a meal together, and Zhou Guowei knew this, so he specially sent a >."

Xie Yuqing was surprised when she heard this, "You still had dinner with the mayor?"

Lo and behold, the mayor died suddenly, and it was a big gossip at best, and everyone would be stunned, curious, and wondering how he died, but no one cared.

…………

When leaving, Zhao Zijian took a bottle of two taels and two pots and put them in his pocket.

In the middle of the night, Xie Yuqing was already asleep, but he got up and put on his clothes, walked up to the rooftop, unscrewed the lid, and sat on the wall of the rooftop, drinking while looking at the distant starry sky.

It's impossible to be sad, but there is some indescribable sense of crisis.

Although he knows Mayor Lu Weimin to some extent, and his perception of this mayor is not bad, but this friendship is really limited, and he can't even talk about a little sadness, not to mention that in the previous life, he had already seen and experienced many lives and deaths, and it was difficult to feel sorry for this kind of thing.

He felt a little sorry for Lu Xiaoning - a hearty and bright girl like her, at such a seventeen or eighteen years old, to face such grief is really one of the biggest tragedies in life.

However, this is obviously not the point.

An old guy who has lived for so long, has nothing to do, of course he also likes the wind and snow, and even re-experiencing his youthful self also makes him feel quite happy, he is very willing to accompany the little girls to indulge in youth and tenderness, but never expect him to become a really soft person.

As long as there is something that seems important to him, he can immediately let himself out of those storms and snows and return to that calm, even cold-blooded self.

He is a person who has struggled into a wolf in troubled times, there will be deep love for licking calves, and there will be lingering ties when love arises, but for a wolf, it is instinct to show its fangs and claws.

And now, a sudden surge of spirit in Heting Mountain, and the sudden death of the mayor in Yunzhou City, made him subconsciously feel a sense of uncertainty in his heart.

A butterfly flapping its wings in North America may have caused a storm in South America.

A thousand miles of embankment was destroyed in an anthill.

Will this world still move forward step by step according to the script that I have experienced?
