Chapter 357: Misunderstanding
Because of the rain, it got dark earlier than usual.
Xu Lang sat in the office, looking at the night outside the window, which had gradually dimmed, and felt that his mind was very messy.
The rain, all the time, dripping, dripping, raindrops fell from a height of 10,000 meters, gently slapping on the windows, forming one after another water stains, one drop or two drops, and finally converged into one piece, forming a small stream of water, which slowly fell along the smooth glass, and finally, merged into a larger stream of water, and was washed into the sewer.
Some people say that the sewer is the dirtiest, the most filthy, and the most able place to hide dirt and dirt in a city, but Xu Lang feels that compared with the sewer, talent is the best place to hide dirt and dirt, because no one knows how bottomless and inhumane a person can be for a certain desire.
When Chen Qiumin's body was discovered, Xu Lang and the others all felt that Chen Qiumin's death was too cruel and bloody, and they felt that Sun Wenyao was a madman and a pervert, but after learning the secret behind Chen Qiumin, Xu Lang suddenly felt that compared with what Sun Wenyao did, the crime behind Chen Jiahe Village was the most unforgivable and unforgivable.
Of course, Xu Lang knew that his idea was very inappropriate and dangerous, but compared to the evil behind Chenjiahe Village, what Sun Wenyao did was really nothing.
Ai Jianbo once said that the reason why Sun Wenyao killed Chen Qiumin should be to let Xu Lang and them investigate the secret behind Chenjiahe Village, and now, Xu Lang and they are already investigating, and they are getting closer and closer to the truth, but Xu Lang can't figure it out, why did Sun Wenyao do this?
Is it for justice?
When this thought appeared in his mind, Xu Lang himself was amused by this thought.
Sun Wenyao is a criminal, a traitor, he killed many people directly or indirectly, and also cultivated a lot of criminals, such as Zhang Minhao, such as Li Zhaojing, such as Bu Zimo, although these people were all arrested or died in the end, but how much threat and harm they brought to the city of S City, justice, Xu Lang felt that this word could appear on anyone, but it could not appear on Sun Wenyao.
So, what is Sun Wenyao's purpose? Could it be that he is coming for himself? However, what is there in his body that is worthy of Sun Wenyao?
All along, Xu Lang had a big doubt in his heart, that is, why the people of the 'Master Chang' organization were always deliberately targeting themselves, they seemed to want to get something from themselves, however, Xu Lang didn't feel that he had anything in him that was worth them doing.
Xu Lang had investigated the relevant information of his father, mother, sister and even grandfather, and he did not find anything very valuable from the relics they left behind, but the people of the organization of 'Master Chang' were like maggots on the tarsal bones, no matter where Xu Lang went, he would meet them, and what made Xu Lang even more puzzled was that it seemed that in addition to ' Master Chang's people are paying close attention to themselves, and the people at the top of the police are also paying attention to themselves, and who are these people, why are they doing this, Xu Lang has no way of knowing, Xu Lang is very confused, he wants to find someone to ask clearly, however, who should he ask? Is the person of 'Master Chang' or the leader of the organization?
Whether it is the former or the latter, it is unlikely, and this is the main purpose of Xu Lang's return this time.
From father, to sister, and brother, they all seem to be involved in this matter, and they all died one by one, if Xu Lang is a person, he definitely doesn't care, the big deal is that the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, but Xu Lang is not alone, he also has a daughter Xiao Yueyue, he doesn't want the people of 'Master Chang' to target Xiao Yueyue, he wants to end it all before Xiao Yueyue grows up.
It's just that what Xu Lang doesn't know is that his worry has become a reality, and Xiao Yueyue has also embarked on Xu Lang's old path step by step, but Xu Lang and Xiao Yueyue have not found out.
ββββ
It was finally completely dark, but the rain outside never stopped.
Xu Lang leaned back in his chair tiredly, closed his eyes, thinking about the current case.
It's already dinner time, Xu Lang's stomach is already growling, however, he has no desire to eat, his mind is now full of things related to the case, and Xu Lang is really tired from the successive interrogation work.
"Click."
The office door opened, Xu Lang heard it, but he didn't open his eyes, he thought it was Ding Haoqiong or someone else from CSY.
Someone walked towards Xu Lang, his steps were very light, and as she approached, a faint fragrance wafted to Xu Lang's nose.
Smelling the familiar smell, Xu Lang slowly opened his eyes and saw that familiar figure, it was Ye Du.
Ye Du was carrying a thermos bucket in her hand and a small bag, she put the bag next to the desk, put the thermos bucket in front of Xu Lang, and saw Xu Lang open his eyes and look at herself, Ye Du stretched out his hand and sorted out the green silk on his sideburns, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked at Xu Lang quietly, just like many years ago, she looked at him, just looking at him quietly.
"Why are you here?" Xu Lang sat up straight from the chair and looked at Ye Du and asked suspiciously.
"You haven't been home for a few days, Xiao Yueyue can't see you, I'm worried about you, I called and asked you about the people here, and I learned that you were injured, so I made you your favorite dish and brought you a change of clothes." Ye Du said in a non-hurried tone.
She has a great voice
, The tone is also very soft, the words spoken are so natural, this is what the wife did to her husband, Ye Du is not Xu Lang's wife, not even a girlfriend, but she does it so naturally, people can't refuse, even, Xu Lang When he saw the thermos bucket and the bag on the ground, not only did he not feel strange, but he sincerely felt very warm, this feeling of being taken care of has not appeared for a long, long time.
After Ye Du finished speaking, he came to the coffee table with a thermos bucket, lifted the lid, and took out the dishes inside one by one, two side dishes, one meat and one vegetable, and the bottom was chicken soup, and the fragrance of food instantly filled the office.
Xu Lang didn't sit on the chair anymore, he also walked over, looking at the food on the table, he raised his head, looked at Ye Du and asked, "How did you do so much?" β
"I heard that you were injured, so I did this."
After hearing this, Xu Lang nodded with a smile, and stretched out his hand to get the chopsticks, but was slapped by Ye Du.
Xu Lang was confused, raised his head, looked at Ye Du in confusion, and asked, "Isn't it for me to eat?" β
Ye Du looked at Xu Lang's slightly childish appearance, and said helplessly: "Wash your hands, you can only eat after washing your hands, children know this kind of thing, why don't you know?" β
"Oh, it's not clean, it's not sick after eating, what kind of hands are you washing."
Xu Lang rolled his eyes, and as he spoke, he was about to get the chopsticks again, but he was slapped lightly by Ye Du and asked Xu Lang to wash his hands.
The two of them argued, and in the end, Xu Lang was defeated, so he had to stand up obediently and reluctantly go to the bathroom to wash his hands.
Looking at Xu Lang's aggrieved expression like a child who didn't grab candy to eat, Ye Du felt very funny, and at the same time, she also felt very warm, she knew that this young man with a white head had experienced something over the years, since Xu Lang entered the police academy, he had never been so naΓ―ve as he is now.
Xu Lang entered the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and the tap water flowed out instantly, Xu Lang washed his hands while looking at himself in the mirror, at this time, not only did he not smile, but his expression was solemn, for the arrival of Ye Du, it seemed to bring more pressure to him, who was already under a lot of pressure, and the source of this pressure was Ye Du, who was sitting outside and looked like the girl next door.
After washing his hands and coming out of the bathroom, Xu Lang came to the sofa, picked up chopsticks and began to eat.
Looking at Xu Lang's eating with relish, Ye Du's good-looking big eyes suddenly narrowed into crescents, which was very moving.
"How is Xiao Yueyue doing?" Xu Lang asked while eating.
"It's good, she's very sensible, and she doesn't go out to play much every day except for studying, just reading." Ye Du looked at Xu Lang and said with a smile.
"Sensible? You didn't see her little bully look, and if you did, you wouldn't say she was sensible. β
Xu Lang rolled his eyes and said, it's just that when he said this, his eyes were full of smiles, perhaps, every parent, when he heard others praise his children, would be like Xu Lang.
"Xiao Yueyue is really sensible, and she is also very smart, like a little adult, with such a daughter, you don't know how much worry you have saved." Ye Du said with a smile.
Xu Lang smiled and nodded.
The dishes made by Ye Du are really delicious, although the ingredients are very simple, but the craftsmanship is good, Xu Lang, who had no appetite, swept away all the meals brought by Ye Du alone, which made Ye Du very happy.
Xu Lang can also cook, especially after having Xiao Yueyue, it's just that the food cooked by Xu Lang is not as good as Ye Du and Ning Yanran, after returning to S City from Zhuxi County, after Xiao Yueyue went to Ning Yanran's house and came back, she always disliked the food Xu Lang made was not delicious, which made Xu Lang very helpless, and now, Ye Du appeared, Xiao Yueyue estimated that she would dislike herself even more, thinking of this, Xu Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
After eating, Xu Lang put down his chopsticks, burped, and felt comfortable, leaning lazily on the sofa.
At this time, Ye Du suddenly stretched out a hand, holding a tissue in his hand, and gently wiped the corners of Xu Lang's mouth, which made Xu Lang very unaccustomed, he hurriedly stretched out his hand, held Ye Du's hand, and said, "I'll just come by myself." β
"Click."
At this moment, the door of the office was pushed open again, and Luo Jiayan and Chen Lingxuan appeared at the door of the office, just in time to see this scene.
"Brother Lang, that, I'm sorry, I didn't come at the right time."
Although Luo Jiayan has a baby face and looks like a little Lori, in fact, she is already an adult, there is nothing she doesn't understand, when she saw this scene, she immediately thought of something, quickly apologized, and then prepared to leave.
Xu Lang was stunned for a moment, and asked casually, "What's wrong?" Something? β
"It's a little bit of a small matter, but it's nothing, I'll just handle it myself." Luo Jiayan hurriedly said.
While saying this, Luo Jiayan looked at Ye Du who was sitting next to Xu Lang, she was secretly looking at this strange woman, and Chen Lingxuan was the same, looking at Ye Du curiously, especially the hands held by Xu Lang and Ye Du, that ambiguous posture.
Xu Lang quickly realized that something was wrong, he hurriedly let go of Ye Du's hand and said, "Things are not what you think. β
"Brother Lang, you don't need to explain, I understand, don't worry, I will keep it secret." Luo Jiayan looked at Xu Lang, who was a little nervous, and said quickly.
"It's really not what you think."
Xu Lang explained again, but when he looked at Luo Jiayan and Chen Lingxuan, he found that their eyes were very strange, with expressions that I understand, which made Xu Lang give up his intention to explain.
And Ye Du also blushed a little, but she was not shy, she just silently cleaned up the mess on the table.
After cleaning up, she stood up and said to Xu Lang: "I'll leave first, Xiao Yueyue will live with me, when are you done busy, when are you picking her up." β
"Okay, I'm sorry for you." Xu Lang said.
Ye Du shook her head, and then walked towards the door, when she walked to the door, she suddenly turned her head and said to Xu Lang: "I brought three sets of clothes to change clothes, remember to be busy, change your clothes, your body is rancid." β
"Got it." Xu Lang said subconsciously.
Ye Du stopped talking, turned around and left, and when he passed by Luo Jiayan and Chen Lingxuan, he smiled politely at them, which was regarded as a greeting.
After Ye Du left, Luo Jiayan ran to Xu Lang, stared at Xu Lang's eyes, put Xu Lang up and down, and even approached Xu Lang and sniffed Xu Lang's body, and then, he frowned and said, "Well, it's really rancid." β
"Is there one?"
Xu Lang also smelled it himself, and there was indeed a smell, which made Xu Lang a little embarrassed, but it was normal for a policeman not to change his clothes for several days, and Xu Lang had long been used to it.
"Brother Lang, who is she? Sister-in-law? Luo Jiayan asked curiously.
Xu Lang shook his head, glanced at the direction Ye Du left, and said, "No, a friend, a good friend." β
"I think it's a girlfriend." Luo Jiayan quipped.
Xu Lang originally wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, he still didn't explain it, and Xu Lang still understood the truth that the more he described, the darker it became, so he changed the topic and asked, "What's wrong?" What's the matter with me? β
Hearing Xu Lang talk about business, Luo Jiayan temporarily put away her curiosity.
"She's done with her transcripts, what's next?"
"What to do? Once the transcript is complete, you can go. Xu Lang said without thinking.
Luo Jiayan first glanced at Xu Lang, then turned her head to look at Chen Lingxuan, who was sitting opposite them, and whispered: "She is the first time to come to S City, she is not familiar with the place, and she has no one she knows, if you let her go, where can she go?" β
Hearing Luo Jiayan say this, Xu Lang remembered this matter.
After returning from Chenjiahe Village, Xu Lang and Ding Haoqiong were busy non-stop, and they had long forgotten about Chen Lingxuan, and now, when he saw her, Xu Lang remembered this matter.
Indeed, Chen Lingxuan came to S City for the first time, here, there were originally her fellow villagers, but these fellow villagers of hers were arrested by Xu Lang and them, and Chen Jiahe Village, she definitely can't go back, even if she wants to go back, there is no way to go back, Chenjiahe Village is now in ruins, and there is nowhere to settle down if she goes back.
If Chen Lingxuan is left outside, Xu Lang is not at ease on the one hand, on the other hand, the reason why Xu Lang was able to successfully escape from Chenjiahe Village is that as long as he relies on Chen Lingxuan's help, if there is no him, what will happen to Xu Lang now, it is really difficult to say, it is reasonable for Xu Lang to help her, but Xu Lang is a man, and he is also a single man with children, he will definitely not let Chen Lingxuan go to live in his own house, as for letting her go to Ye Du's house, Xu Lang has never thought about it.
As for Ning Yanran, not to mention that Ning Yanran is still busy in Chenjiahe Village, just what happened to Xu Lang and Chen Lingxuan that night, although nothing really happened to the two of them, Xu Lang still doesn't want more people to know.
Suddenly, Xu Lang's head also grew a little.
In the end, Xu Lang looked at Luo Jiayan and said, "Why don't you let her live with you for the time being?" β
"Stay with me?"
Luo Jiayan opened her mouth wide and looked at Xu Lang in surprise.
"What? Isn't it possible? Anyway, there are only two people in your dormitory, you and Fan Yang, let her live with you, isn't it good for you to have multiple companions? Xu Lang said.
Hearing Xu Lang say this, Luo Jiayan looked at Chen Lingxuan, who was silent, turned her head, looked at Xu Lang, hesitated, and said, "This is not very convenient." β
"Inconvenient? What's inconvenient, you're all women. Xu Lang said puzzled.
Luo Jiayan seemed to have something unspeakable, maybe she was afraid that Chen Lingxuan was next to her, she couldn't say it directly, so she said: "In short, it's just inconvenient." β
"Officer Xu, if not, you give me some money, I'll go out and rent a house, and I'll pay you back when I find a job and earn money." Chen Lingxuan, who had not spoken, finally spoke.
However, Chen Lingxuan's proposal, Xu Lang directly shook his head and refused, not to mention letting Chen Lingxuan, an underage girl with no social experience, live alone outside, just because Luo Jiayan wanted to speak and stopped just now, Xu Lang felt that there must be a problem here, so Xu Lang thought about it and said to Luo Jiayan: "You find a hotel near CSY and open a room for her, and I will pay for it." β
"Okay."
"I'm sorry Officer Xu." Chen Lingxuan said.
Xu Lang shook his head, looked at Luo Jiayan, and signaled that they could go out.
Luo Jiayan didn't drag the mud and water, and left with Chen Lingxuan, but put down a document before leaving, Xu Lang picked up the document and read it after they left, and after only reading a few pages, Xu Lang frowned.
