Yuan Qi, Teacher He Lin, and Bai Yanzi went upstairs together and sat in the window seat, among which Bai Yanzi's steps were so gentle, like the wind swinging willows, but Teacher He Lin walked in a positive step, holding his head high and full of masculinity. Bai Yanzi and Teacher He Lin are in obvious contrast, one yin and one yang. After Bai Yanzi sat down, he shook his tilted head, covered his mouth with one hand, and showed a few delicate smiles, and said: "Hehe, Teacher Yuan Qi, I often hear Teacher He Lin talk about you, you are very talented, and I admire it very much, so I came to see Teacher Yuan Qi's fragrance before," Bai Yanzi's breath was so weak, like a weak woman.

"Teacher Bai has won the award, and when it comes to talent, it is just a class cauldron in front of the two teachers. Teacher He Lin is a master of lyrics and songs, I have seen his works, they are very beautiful, and the gorgeousness of his words is beyond the reach of the next, but Mr. Bai is young and promising, so he has become a famous corner in the world, a dazzling star in the sky, if you don't understand anything in the future, you two still need to ask for advice, and then you two need to give advice," Yuan Qi looked at the two teachers with his eyes and said slowly.

"Brother Qi is too modest," He Lin looked at Bai Yanzi who was sitting next to him, and said to Yuan Qi: "He can be said to be crazy about Peking Opera," and then said with a modest smile on his face: "I am a fan of his opera, and I will come over to listen to it when I have free time, and I will become a confidant over time." ”

"Oh, like-minded, it's rare for you and me to have a fate," the waiter was about to bring them tea, I don't know when Su Ling walked out of the office, patted her shoulder, the waiter turned to face Su Ling who was standing in front of him, and said in surprise: "Boss," Su Ling stretched out her finger and sighed, then took the tray in the waiter's hand, quietly stepped forward and stood next to Yuan Qi, and poured tea for them. Maybe Yuan Qi was too involved and didn't realize that it was Su Ling standing next to him.

At this time, Yuan Qi was interested together, and said: "Xiao Wang, bring some paper and pen," and smiled at everyone: "Today we rarely see each other, hereby write poems and gifts, Yuan is here to offer ugliness, and please don't laugh." ”

"Well, it is also rare for us to see the authentic works of Mr. Wang, and it is really an honor to give each other such a gift, an honor."

"Okay, okay, monkey, I'll go get you pen and ink," Yuan Qi knew that it was Su Ling who was standing next to him and poured tea and water, looked at Su Ling standing next to him, and said, "Lingling, when did you stand next to me, why don't I know," and then Yuan Qi faced everyone and made a very cute appearance, which attracted a few laughs.

"I've been standing next to you for a long time, but you didn't notice it."

"This is in the lower place, Su Ling," then looked up at Su Ling and said: "Lingling, come, come, sit down, I want you to introduce," Su Ling sat down and faced He Lin and Bai Yanzi, Yuan Qi sat next to him and introduced them one by one, and said: "This is Teacher He Linhe, this is Teacher Bai Yanzi,"

"Brother and sister are so sweet, this is the blessing of enlightenment."

Su Ling sat on the side and smiled silently, then stood up and walked out and said, "You guys talk slowly, I'll go get pen and ink," and then Su Ling took pen and ink and put it on the tea table. Yuan Qi spread the rice paper on the tea table, pressed the cups on both sides, stood up and looked out the window, as if he was contemplating, slowly put his hands down, raised his eyes and looked up, after pondering for a long time, he quickly turned around, picked up the brush placed on the tea table, dipped it in ink, and waved it on the paper, like a dragon flying and a phoenix dancing.

"The moon is from the hometown of Ming, and the mountains are cold and snowy. It is better to die than to go home, and to kill Loulan's blood alone. ”

"This word is square and powerful, it can be seen that Brother Qi's mind is broad, his spirit is like a surging river, he is trying to pull out the mountains and cover the world, there are majestic mountains and rivers, and the corpse swallows thousands of miles of rivers and mountains," Teacher He Lin stood behind Yuan Qi, looking at his words and poems, and suddenly sighed.

Yuan Qi stood alone on the balcony, looking up at the sky, sometimes feeling deeply sad. Lingling didn't know when to walk out, looked at Yuan Qi's back, slowly stepped forward, and said, "Monkey, what's wrong?" ”

"I saw a piece of news in the newspaper this morning, Bai Yanzi died suddenly," after finishing speaking, he sighed, he was deeply puzzled by Bai Yanzi's death, and didn't even believe that the news would be true, so he turned around and faced Su Ling and said very seriously: "Do you think he really died suddenly?" So what are the factors for sudden death? These questions made Yuan Qi fall into deep thought again. Two days ago, Bai Yanzi came to the teahouse again, this may be the last time Bai Yanzi and Yuan Qi met, and it has been two years since the first meeting, and this meeting is like two people from the last time Bai Yanzi met.

When the white swallow walked in, its steps were very light and light, fluttering like the wind, his heels did not fall to the ground, his eyes were blank, his skin was pale, as if he had not slept well for three days and three nights, and it was so decadent. When he sits, he is like a wooden chicken, and sometimes he is distracted. Yuan Qi felt very strange sitting in front of him, but he couldn't say any reason, and he coughed a few times deliberately, and then he came back to his senses.

"Brother Xian, Brother Fool is going to have a Dou E injustice in He Yuan Theater this weekend, and I invite Brother Xian to come and cheer,"

"What time?"

"Starts at half past eight in the evening."

"Okay, Brother Fool will come to the show, it's almost noon, and I invite Brother Xian to stay and have lunch with me, I haven't seen you for two years, I can take this opportunity for you and me to talk, how about it?"

"No need, you and I have been here for a long time, and we have more time to get together," after saying that, the two got up and said goodbye, turned around and walked out. Yuan Qi stood in place and looked at the back of the white swallow walking out, and used this to show his true friendship. When Bai Yanzi walked out, he suddenly felt a little dizzy, his body was crooked, and a waiter stepped forward in time to help Bai Yanzi up. Bai Yanzi pushed the waiter away, turned around and bent down with his hands arched in front of him, and Yuan Qi still stood still after returning the salute, watching him walk out of the teahouse. At this time, a kind of worry could be seen from Yuan Qi's facial expression, but he still showed a calm look. Who knew that Yuan Qi didn't go on this day, maybe he forgot it because he was busy with work, but that day was the last time they met, and since then Yin and Yang have been separated, thinking about it is sad and regrettable!

"Do you think he really died suddenly?" Yuan Qi turned to face Su Ling again and was full of doubts when he said this, and finally turned around to look up at the white sky.

"Monkey, you don't have to feel sorry for him, didn't the newspapers say he died suddenly? With the rapid development of society, high work pressure, and irregular work and rest time, sudden death is normal for Bai Yanzi, a young opera master. ”

"In two years, I have met him twice in just two years, and he has changed so much in these two meetings, don't you think his death is strange. Sudden death also has factors of sudden death, all of which are unnatural deaths, but there must be a hidden meaning in his death," Yuan Qi pondered for a long time. Looking up at the white sky, he sighed again, "Alas! It's a pity to think about it, a generation of opera masters, the disseminators of Chinese traditions, died in this way, God doesn't bless people! God forbids you. ”

Su Ling stood behind Yuan Qi, carefully weighed Yuan Qi's words, and said slowly: "Indeed, although he was a little coquettish when he saw Bai Yanzi for the first time, he was radiant and did not look like a sick person, but the second time I met the sick, the sick state was highlighted, and I also felt that his death was a little strange." ”

Yuan Qi suddenly turned around, faced Su Ling and said: "Yes, you are right, what I want to know is what happened to him in the past two years, which made him have such a huge change, this may be the breakthrough in this case, from this breakthrough to grasp the clue and follow the vine, I think the truth will come out, what I need to do now is to go to the hospital to see him for the last time." ”

"Monkey, I'll go with you."

"No need, I'll go alone, my former boss Yang Jing is going to come over this afternoon, and you can receive her for me."

"Okay."

Yuan Qi and Su Ling walked into the office together, hung up the black satchel and walked downstairs, drove a red car to the central hospital, and walked into the hospital after getting out of the car. ”

"You are the family of the deceased."

Yuan Qi just nodded silently, and at this time, a very young policeman walked out, stood behind Yuan Qi, and said in surprise: "Master." ”

Yuan Qi heard someone calling him Master behind him, turned around and looked at the young policeman very strangely, and said, "This officer, you seem to have called the wrong person." ”

"I'm Zhao Deqing, a disciple of the Desheng Martial Arts Hall, don't you remember me?" The young policeman kept looking at Yuan Qi and said.

Yuan Qi has been looking at Zhao Deqing in front of him, Zhao Deqing is the second disciple of the Desheng Martial Arts Pavilion, the owner of the Desheng Martial Arts Pavilion Chen Biao was killed by the Japanese samurai Sasaki after worshipping Yuan Qi as a teacher, and then joined the army under the guidance of Yuan Qi, after five years, almost unrecognizable. O man! Although there will be such a big change, the world is unpredictable.

"Oh, it turned out to be Zhao Deqing, no, no, you are an official and I am a citizen, and now I should call you Officer Zhao," Yuan Qi and Zhao Deqing sat on the bench together, recounting the relationship between master and apprentice back then.

"How dare you, how dare you, you still call me Deqing, so I will get used to it, if it weren't for your guidance, how could I have today, one day as a teacher and a lifetime as a father, you will always be my Deqing's master."

"Deqing is polite, how could you be assigned to work in the Public Security Bureau?" Maybe it's Yuan Qi's habit for many years, he wants to ask about everything, holding Zhao Deqing's hand with both hands and looking at him all the time, maybe he hasn't seen him for a long time, and he has a deep relationship between master and apprentice, and he wants to understand it out of concern.

"When I was in the army, I was recommended by the army to cooperate with the serious crime team in handling the case."
