Zhou Lai stiffened slightly, did not answer, and after a while, he said lightly: "I was not there last time you went back, and I happened to be on vacation these days, so I came to see you." ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't speak now, nodded, and led him into the house.

She wasn't at home all day, and the house was deserted. Jiang Guangguang asked Zhou Lai to sit, and then went to pour him a cup of tea, and then asked, "Is it okay to cook noodles for you?" ”

At this time, it was already dark outside, and he should have been waiting for a long time, and he should be hungry at this time.

Zhou Lai nodded, thought about it for a while, and suddenly said, "I want to eat the tomato egg noodles made by Grandma Jiang before." ”

As soon as he said that, Jiang Guangguang's figure paused slightly, then answered the word and went to the kitchen.

The air outside was colder, and Jiang Guangguang walked all the way to the kitchen, suddenly in a trance.

In the past, when Zhou Lai's house didn't move out, Aunt Luo was busy, so Zhou Lai often ate at her house.

Grandma's craftsmanship is very good, and there is often a pot hanging soup on a small stove at home. Grandpa likes to eat noodles, so grandma will sit on many kinds of noodles.

She and Zhou Lai often have a fried golden egg on their faces. Zhou Lai said that she can eat a big bowl of tomato and egg noodles every time, and even the soup will be drunk cleanly.

Jiang Guangguang thought of this, and suddenly remembered the osmanthus cake made by his grandmother. Every autumn, as long as the osmanthus flowers in the yard bloom, grandma will pick a lot of osmanthus flowers and use them to make osmanthus cakes.

In the blink of an eye, she has not eaten osmanthus cake for many years.

Jiang Guangguang sighed softly, then went into the kitchen, boiled water, and took out the noodles, eggs, and tomatoes. She planted green onions on the edge of the yard, so she didn't have to go out to buy them.

She has always been skilled in cooking, peeling the tomatoes with hot water while cooking the noodles and cutting them into quick cuts, then beating the eggs and frying them, and then putting down the chopped tomatoes and putting in a little salt. She turned the fire down a bit. It didn't take long for the tomatoes to be stir-fried and juiced.

When all this is done, the boiled noodles are ready. She scooped it up in a bowl, put the spices on it, and poured the scrambled tomatoes mixed with the eggs. After doing all this, she sprinkled a little green onion on the tomato and egg covered noodles, and then served it.

Zhou Lai was smoking in the living room, and when he saw her face inside, he raised his head. Her face was quite soft under the dim yellow light, and a few strands of hair fell on her face, adding a bit of tranquility.

Zhou Lai suddenly had a little trance, and his heart was suddenly blocked. She and before. It's really not the same anymore.

When he came back to his senses, Jiang Guangguang had already put the noodle bowl in front of him and said, "Eat, the taste is a little different from what grandma made." ”

It's definitely different, grandma used dashi and she didn't have dashi.

Zhou Lai hummed and snuffed out the cigarette butt. I took the chopsticks and ate slowly.

Jiang Guangguang couldn't sit like that when he ate, so he cleaned up the house.

Zhou Lai ate very slowly, and only after eating did he put the chopsticks on the bowl, and then said softly: "It's delicious." ”

Jiang Guangguang smiled. I looked at the time and asked, "Have you booked a hotel?" If I don't book, I'll pack up the room. ”

Zhou Lai nodded and said, "It's ordered." After a slight pause, he continued: "I heard that Guo Shu is also over there. ”

I don't know if he knows about the Guo family, but even if he wants to say it, it won't be her turn to talk about it. She nodded, and said yes.

Zhou Lai sat for a while before he stood up and said, "I brought you something, in the car, I'll get it." ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't know what he was bringing. But everyone has brought it, and you can't say no. just said that there was no need to be so troublesome, got up and went out with Zhou Lai.

Most of the things brought by Zhou Lai were some special products, and some of the pastries were what Jiang Guangguang liked to eat in the past.

Jiang Guangguang took it and said thank you.

Zhou Lai said: "It's not early, and I won't bother you." You go to bed early. ”

He came from there, and he should be tired. Jiang Guangguang nodded and said, "Come over for breakfast tomorrow morning." ”

Zhou Lai smiled, responded with a good word, and urged Jiang Guangguang to go in.

Jiang Guangguang was not polite, asked him to drive slowly, and went into the yard.

Her figure quickly disappeared under the eaves, but Zhou Lai stood still. After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and walked towards the parking place in the alley opposite.

When he got to the car, he opened the door and just got into the car when his mobile phone rang. He took it out and looked at it, picked it up, and fed it.

On the other side of the phone was his subordinate Xiaopang, who opened his mouth and asked, "Boss, are you there?" ”

Zhou Lai hummed, and then asked, "Have you already got what I asked you to take?" ”

The chubby on the other side of the phone smiled smugly and said, "I should be able to get it tonight." I'm on my way. ”

Zhou Lai hummed lightly and said, "Be careful." ”

Xiaopang nodded vigorously, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my acting skills have always been perfect, and I will be fine." I'll call you when I get it. ”

Zhou Lai said hello, and the fat on the other end of the phone asked a few more words, saying that it was almost there, and then hung up the phone.

Soon there was a beeping busy sound on the phone, and Zhou Lai held the phone and did not move. His eyes stayed in the small courtyard on the opposite side, revealing a dim yellow light, and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were already indifferent, he threw his phone aside, sat for a while, and then started the car.

Jiang Guangguang got up very early the next day, Zhou Lai wanted to come over, she couldn't go to Cheng Rongjian's side, so she called Cheng Rongjian. The call was answered by Ah Bei, and Jiang Guangguang said that there was something in the morning and he couldn't go over.

Abei on the other end of the phone fell silent. didn't ask Jiang Guangguang what was wrong, and only after a while did he say yes.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Guangguang called Guo Shu and said that she would make breakfast and ask Guo Shu and Zhou Lai to come over to eat together.

Guo Shu didn't know that Zhou Lai had already come, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and asked, "When did he come over?" ”

"Yesterday." Jiang Guangguang replied, and then asked, "Didn't he go to you?" ”

Guo Shu said no, he didn't know what he was thinking, and groaned. After a while, he said, "I have something to do, come back at noon." He wanted to say something, but he hesitated for a while, but finally didn't say anything, just said something to wait for me to come over.

He had another phone call coming in, and he said hang up first, and then hung up.

Jiang Guangguang didn't know what he was going to say, she was a little puzzled when he was so stumbling, but she didn't think about anything, and began to prepare breakfast.

Zhou Lai came very early. Jiang Guangguang hung up the phone, and he came over not long after. Jiang Guangguang's breakfast was rarely prepared very richly, with small steamed buns with cream, porridge, fried fritters and pancakes, and set a table.

Jiang Guangguang didn't want Zhou to help, and only after breakfast did she ask, "Didn't you see Guo Shu?" ”

She actually wanted to ask Zhou Lai if he didn't go to Guo Shu, but Zhou Lai and Guo Shu were just general friends, and it was normal not to look for them.

Zhou Lai nodded and said, "I was a little tired last night." I went back and slept. ”

At this time, Jiang Guangguang nodded and didn't speak. The dining table was quiet, with only a slight sound.

After breakfast, Jiang Guangguang cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "I'm going to go out, it may take a while to come back, and if you're bored, watch TV." After a pause, she continued: "Guo Shu said that he would come over in a while." ”

Zhou Lai nodded. Originally, she wanted to ask Jiang Guangguang where she went, but she had already gone to the kitchen.

When he stood for a while and went out, Jiang Guangguang was already using an insulated box for breakfast, and she had prepared a lot for breakfast, including porridge and creamy steamed bun pancakes.

Zhou Lai watched so quietly, he knew that Cheng Rongjian was here. Guo Shu is going to come later, so this breakfast is for Cheng Rongjian.

Zhou Lai didn't know what he was thinking, and his eyes were deep. Without waiting for Jiang Guangguang to come out of the kitchen, he went back to the living room.

has already said hello, Jiang Guangguang did not say hello to Zhou Lai when he left. Carrying something, he opened the door and walked out.

She had breakfast a little early this morning, and the alley was still deserted. Only the occasional passerby walked by.

Jiang Guangguang walked for a while, only to find that the beggar last night was actually squatting on the side of the road. There were a few small change bills in the broken bowl in front of him, and I don't know who gave him several buns and a bottle of water. He was gobbling it up.

Probably hearing footsteps, the beggar looked up at her, and then put the broken bowl forward, probably to let her look at it.

The beggar was busy eating, and he didn't look at Jiang Guangguang, he put the bowl forward and continued to eat with his head buried.

Jiang Guangguang wanted to give him some change last night, but he didn't bring any money with him when he came out today. She was more or less embarrassed, but she didn't see it. Thinking about coming back later, I will ask Abei for some change for him.

Probably because of embarrassment, her pace couldn't help but speed up. As she walked past the beggar, the beggar stood up suddenly. Before Jiang Guangguang could react, a bright dagger stabbed over.

All this was just between lightning and flint, Jiang Guangguang's heart was horrified, and he instinctively took a step back and blocked it with the lunch box in his hand.

But the bento box couldn't stop it, and the dagger narrowly grazed her waist. With a missed blow, the beggar immediately stabbed her again.

His movements were too fast, Jiang Guangguang just wanted to run, but he didn't know what he tripped under his feet, her center of gravity was unstable, and she fell to the ground with a fight. The lunch box in his hand was scattered aside.

But because of this fight, the beggar's dagger fell into the air again.

There was a hot pain in Jiang Guangguang's palm, and seeing that the beggar's dagger was about to fall again, she didn't have time to escape, and she couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

At this moment, the silence was shattered by the sound of a wooden barn. The beggar paused, turned around, and Zhou Lai was holding the wooden warehouse to him, running towards him.

The beggar probably didn't expect to kill a Cheng biting gold halfway, so he couldn't take care of Jiang Guangguang anymore, turned around and ran into the alley on the side.

Where could Zhou Lai take care of him at this time, stepped forward to help Jiang Guangguang up, and asked anxiously, "Are you injured?" ”

Jiang Guangguang was already in a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit of the aftermath of his life. The palm of her hand was hot and painful, and she couldn't care about it, so she said it was okay, and she was going to chase the beggar.

Zhou Lai naturally knew what she was thinking, and said something to let her take care of herself, and chased after the alley that the beggar ran into. But the beggar was familiar with this side, and there was still a sign of the beggar when he ran past.

He was not worried about Jiang Guangguang alone, and he did not dare to run away. Soon he poured back.

His voice startled many people, and the people nearby came out one after another. Zhou Lai didn't care about those people, and when he saw Jiang Guangguang, he shook his head, indicating that he didn't catch up.

This is what Jiang Guangguang had expected, although the residents here are not very dense, but every road is accessible in all directions. The man was obviously familiar with the neighborhood, where was it so easy to chase.

She pursed her lips and didn't speak. Zhou Lai stepped forward quickly to look at her, and asked in a low voice, "Are there any injuries?" ”

Jiang Guangguang's legs and feet were still a little weak, and he looked at the steamed porridge and other things scattered all over the place, and shook his head. Say, "No." ”

The palm of her hand was scratched, and she subconsciously raised it to take a look.

Zhou Lai grabbed her hand, his eyes were gloomy, and he still didn't say anything, only said to go back to the medicine.

Cheng Rongjian and Ah Bei came over quickly, and when they saw Zhou Lai and Jiang Guangguang, they immediately understood what was going on.

Cheng Rongjian's face was cold, and he stepped forward quickly, and seeing that Jiang Guangguang was not injured, he asked in a cold voice, "Where did the people go?" ”

Zhou Lai's face was pale. Pointing in the direction of the man's escape.

Ah Bei didn't say anything, and immediately limped after him. As he walked, he took out his phone.

At this time, there were more and more onlookers, and Zhou Lai said in a low voice that he would go back first. The breakfast scattered on the ground could no longer be eaten, so Jiang Guangguang nodded.

Just as he was about to leave, Abei, who was chasing after him, fell back and said lightly: "Officer Zhou, I need your help." ”

When he said this, he should have been sure where the person had fled. Zhou glanced at Jiang Guangguang and said, "I'll come when I go." ”

He can tell the difference between the severity and the severity, Jiang Guangguang was slightly injured, but if that person can't be caught, he will be surprised next time, then he may not have such good luck. So, the most important thing at the moment is to catch that person.

Jiang Guangguang nodded, and Zhou Lai told her to be careful, so she hurriedly followed Abei.

Zhou Lai had just left, and Lao Tie and the others rushed over. immediately called Guo Shu.

Cheng Rongjian's face was frighteningly cold, as if he didn't exist at all, and looked at Jiang Guangguang from top to bottom, then pursed his lips and said, "Go back to the medicine first." ”

In fact, the palm of the hand is only scratched by the skin, but it is just a skin injury.

Jiang Guangguang didn't say anything at this time, and followed Cheng Rongjian to his small courtyard.

When Guo Shu came, Cheng Rongjian had already washed Jiang Guangguang's hands and wrapped them in gauze, Guo Shu was relieved to see that Jiang Guangguang was fine, and immediately asked, "Where did the people flee?" ”

Cheng Rongjian's face was not good, and he said in a deep voice: "Ah Bei, they went to chase after them." ”

Guo Shu's fists were clenched tightly, and when he heard this, he fell silent, and then asked Jiang Guangguang: "What's the matter?" ”

Jiang Guangguang was slightly tired, although the beggar had long hair to cover his face and didn't see his face clearly, it should be Cheng Jinyan. She told me everything she had just done.

After she finished speaking, she remembered the scene of the beggar following her yesterday, and he must have been waiting for him a long time ago. If it hadn't been Zhou Lai's sudden appearance last night, he would have done it last night. Because of Zhou Lai's appearance, he fell back.

Lu Zizhen obviously reminded her, but in the end, she took it lightly. I didn't expect that Cheng Jinyan would make himself look like that.

People are in the dark, she is in the light, and it is indeed impossible to prevent it. Twenty-four hours a day, it is impossible for her not to be alone once.

Guo Shu and Cheng Rongjian didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere was a little depressing. Jiang Guangguang squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, isn't it hurt?" ”

Cheng Rongjian's eyes were deep and heavy, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't speak. Guo Shu's face was pale, and he didn't speak either. It wasn't until Cheng Rongjian's mobile phone rang that the silence was broken.

He quickly picked up the phone, he didn't know what was said, his face was even more ugly, and he hung up the phone directly.

Although I don't know what was said over there, looking at Cheng Rongjian's face, I know that the person must not have been caught.

Guo Shu was still unwilling in the end, and asked, "Isn't there any clue at all?" ”

Cheng Rongjian said in a deep voice: "I found a wig and the ragged clothes next to the garbage pond on the road. ”

Yes, people are prepared in advance, and changing clothes is a different thing, and it is easy to hide and find someone.

Guo Shu didn't speak now, he only noticed the depression of the atmosphere at this time, and said: "It's okay, he shouldn't appear for the time being." ”

Jiang Guangguang also deliberately wanted to ease the atmosphere, so he nodded and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

Guo Shu said no, looked at her hand, and said, "Don't do it, you can't eat it." ”

Cheng Rongjian remembered the porridge and cream buns scattered all over the ground, and his fists clenched tightly unconsciously.

Ah Bei didn't come back in a long time, and Zhou Lai came with him. Because Jiang Guangguang had called, Guo Shu was not surprised to see Zhou Lai, nodded slightly as a greeting, and then said to Jiang Guangguang: "Let's go back first." ”

Zhou Lai and Cheng Rongjian are not friendly, so naturally they can't stay here.

Jiang Guangguang naturally knew what he meant, so he nodded. After saying that, I went back first, and then left.

Cheng Rongjian should have wanted to say something, Guo Shu didn't know what he said in a low voice, he still didn't speak, he didn't move.

A few people quickly left the courtyard, and Guo Shu looked at Zhou Lai and asked, "Isn't there any clue at all?" ”

If Zhou Lai hadn't been here today, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Zhou Lai shook his head silently and said, "He was prepared early." The only thing he was glad about now was that he followed her when she came out.

If he hadn't come along, he wouldn't have imagined what it would be like now.

Guo Shu stopped talking now.

Jiang Guangguang was a little tired after this experience. When I returned to the yard, I went back to my room to change my clothes. With a faint tingling pain in her palms, she let out a sigh before returning to the living room.

Guo Shu and Zhou Lai didn't know what they were talking about, and they didn't speak again when they saw her come out. Jiang Guangguang poured tea for both of them, and Zhou Lai said, "Don't go to crowded places for the time being." ”

Jiang Guangguang didn't say anything, she knew in her heart that this was not the way to do it at all. She knows that she can't prevent it. But she nodded.

The atmosphere was depressed, so Guo Shu lit a cigarette and smoked it. Jiang Guangguang let the two of them sit, and then went to the kitchen to warm up the rest of the breakfast.

Guo Shu couldn't eat at all at this time, so he only ate a little porridge. Zhou Lai didn't speak all the time, and when Guo Shu finished eating the porridge, he stood up and said, "I'll go out for a while." ”

After he said this, he didn't talk nonsense, picked up his coat and went out. Guo Shu looked at his back and didn't speak, and after a while, he asked, "Is there something wrong with him coming?" ”

His face was a little solemn. Jiang Guangguang shook his head and said what Zhou said last night.

Guo Shu looked at her, with a little wry smile on his face, and said, "Ah Rong, if I guessed correctly, Guo Shu should have come here for Cheng Rongjian this time." ”

Just to see her, where is the need for a special vacation.

Jiang Guangguang did not speak. Guo Shu paused, and continued: "Zhou Lai is not the same as before. If possible, it's best not to let him get along with Cheng Rongjian alone. ”

Since he came here specially, he should have been prepared. But no one knows what he wants to do, so the best way is not to let him be with Cheng Rongjian.

Jiang Guangguang's heart was heavy and he nodded.

Guo Shu then said: "You don't have to worry too much, I'll say hello to Ah Bei." He also didn't understand, he didn't understand why Zhou Lai had to chase Cheng Rongjian.

It's been a few years. I didn't mention it again, in fact, he could have turned a blind eye.

Neither of them spoke for a while, Guo Shu's mobile phone rang, he stood up and went to answer the phone.

Jiang Guangguang sat alone on the sofa, slightly distracted. She rested her hand on her brow, trying to think about the scene just now. only to find that she couldn't remember the man's face at all.

He originally had long hair to cover his face, and he deliberately lowered his head when he squatted. At that juncture, even if her face was revealed for a moment, she might not have noticed.

Jiang Guangguang couldn't help but sigh softly, it's okay to do it. It's better than waiting for an indefinite period of time. At least I know that he is here.

I didn't succeed this time, and there will definitely be a next time. It's just that she has to be extra careful.
