"You're finally here, much sooner than I expected."

After Li Zhaojing saw Xu Lang, she slowly turned her head and looked at Xu Lang with a smile on her face, as if they were good friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Xu Lang stood opposite Li Zhaojing, his eyes first swept over the faces of Li Zhaojing and Luo Quan, and then he turned his gaze to Ning Yanran, who was tied to the pine tree, and saw that she was still alive, and after not finding the abuse, Xu Lang's heart that had been hanging finally relaxed a lot.

After Xu Lang appeared, Li Zhaojing's eyes were always on this man's face, without the anger he expected, nor the nonsense of seeing himself and persuading him to surrender, which made Li Zhaojing a little disappointed, but more relieved, if he was like those policemen, what was the point of doing all this, and what was the meaning of Lu Jianwei's death back then, if Xu Lang really showed this, Li Zhaojing would be very disappointed, she would feel worthless for Lu Jianwei's death, Deeply unworthy.

When Li Zhaojing caught Xu Lang setting his eyes on Ning Yanran, she smiled and laughed unscrupulously.

"Haha"

Li Zhaojing laughed, slowly turned her head, looked at Ning Yanran, and said sarcastically, "Didn't you come for her, didn't you like her, why did you still come?"

Xu Lang turned his gaze from Ning Yanran's body to Li Zhaojing's body, and said a few words lightly, "Because I am a policeman." ”

"The police, for this, for your so-called justice, so-called responsibility, so-called faith, police officer, you let me down."

The corners of Li Zhaojing's mouth flashed with mockery, which was a kind of disdain, a kind of resentment, and a kind of disdain from the heart.

Xu Lang just looked at Li Zhaojing and didn't speak, but Ning Yanran spoke at this time.

She shouted with tears on her face, "Xu Lang, leave me alone, Xiao Yueyue was also kidnapped by them, Xiao Yueyue is in their hands, you go and save her"

"Smack"

After Ning Yanran said this, Li Zhaojing turned around suddenly, waved his palm, and slapped Ning Yanran hard in the face.

The crisp sound was particularly loud and unusually harsh in this silent night, Ning Yanran's next words were also interrupted by this slap, her head was tilted to the side, and a clear slap mark immediately appeared on her pale cheeks, which were frozen because of the cold, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth.

I don't know if it's because Li Zhaojing's slap is too strong, or because she has been tied up for a long time, she has no strength to struggle, Ning Yanran seems to be beaten, she didn't immediately turn her head to look at Li Zhaojing, but her mouth was still vaguely muttering, "Leave me alone, go save Xiao Yueyue." ”

After Xu Lang's eyes slapped Ning Yanran without warning, his hands subconsciously clenched into fists, and his eyes contracted violently, but he didn't move, just glanced at Ning Yanran, and put his eyes back on Li Zhaojing's body.

After beating Ning Yanran, Li Zhaojing slowly turned around, shaking her somewhat painful wrist while looking at Xu Lang with a smile, she really wanted to see the man show an angry but helpless expression, however, she was disappointed again, and Xu Lang also spoke at this time.

"I know."

Three simple words, but the two women present were stunned on the spot, Li Zhaojing was surprised, puzzled, curious, more or puzzled, it seems that Xu Lang is really the same as she said before, and Ning Yanran After hearing Xu Lang say I know three words, she tilted her head to the side, turned around suddenly, looked at Xu Lang in a daze, her eyes were wet with tears again, and her face showed a shocked and incredulous expression, obviously, she didn't expect Xu Lang to come to her when she came to her, already knew the news of Xiao Yueyue's accident, and after he knew about it, he still chose to save himself, although he came alone.

The air seemed to freeze, Ning Yanran had forgotten her current situation, and also forgot that Li Zhaojing and Luo Quan were by her side, only the man with long snow-white hair flying in the air who looked very indifferent, expressionless, and stood there quietly, muttering "why, why" in her mouth

didn't answer, Xu Lang didn't answer her question, just glanced at her lightly, and Li Zhaojing also wanted to know the answer, even Luo Quan, who was expressionless from beginning to end, like a robot, couldn't help but look at Xu Lang a few more times, obviously, they didn't expect that Xu Lang would make this choice.

He did this because he liked this woman, or because this woman was the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, or because she had a terrible father, or because of the so-called faith that Li Zhaojing ridiculed

The answer, it seems, is known only to the man.

Just when Li Zhaojing was stunned on the spot, Xu Lang spoke.

"I'm here, according to your request, I'm coming alone, let's talk about it, you kidnapped her and asked me to come here, what are you doing"

Xu Lang's voice Li Zhaojing pulled back to reality, she looked at Xu Lang with complicated eyes, and after a long time, she said, "Guess what"

Xu Lang frowned, he didn't have the heart to play a guessing game with Li Zhaojing here, and said directly, "It's definitely not you who want it."

Surrender. ”

Li Zhaojing nodded with a smile and said, "Back then, he didn't turn himself in, and today, I won't choose to turn himself in." ”

When Li Zhaojing said this, her eyes were not looking at Xu Lang, but looking at Lu Jianwei's tombstone beside Xu Lang gently.

Xu Lang followed Li Zhaojing's line of sight, found the tombstone, and also saw Lu Jianwei's name, he was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of something, his heart moved, turned his head, and looked at Li Zhaojing.

Today is the eighth anniversary of Lu Jianwei's death, eight years ago today, when Xu Lang led the people of the second criminal investigation team to find Lu Jianwei, he died in front of him, and when Xu Lang arrived, Lu Jianwei still had a breath, not completely dead, after he saw Xu Lang, he just smiled, but didn't say a word, and then he lost his breath, it seems, he has been holding on to a breath, just to look at Xu Lang before he died, that's all.

Eight years later, the name of the punisher, which had disappeared from the city for eight years, reappeared, and not as it was eight years ago, only Lu Jianwei alone, but a group of people, led by this woman, Lu Jianwei's ex-girlfriend Li Zhaojing.

Xu Lang vaguely guessed the reason why Li Zhaojing got himself here, but Xu Lang still didn't speak, but looked at Li Zhaojing, with a touch of disdain and ridicule at the corner of his mouth.

I don't know if it was Xu Lang's sense of ignorance when he saw Lu Jianwei's tombstone, or because of the expression on Xu Lang's face now, Li Zhaojing felt angry, deeply angry, her face, which was still mocking and smiling, gradually became iron and blue, and also became hideous, she yelled at Xu Lang, "Kneel." ”

Xu Lang didn't move, just tilted his head slightly, glanced at Lu Jianwei's grave, and then turned his head, as if he didn't want to see Lu Jianwei's grave.

"I'll make you kneel down and make amends for him, saying you're wrong."

Li Zhaojing looked at Xu Lang and shouted hysterically.

However, Xu Lang still didn't make any moves, he just looked at the woman in front of him who had begun to get out of control, and the disdain and ridicule on his face became more and more intense.

"Xu Lang, I told you to kneel, kneel for him, are you deaf" Li Zhaojing continued to yell at Xu Lang.

"Huh"

Xu Lang smiled, he stretched out his hand and took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette from it and lit it, and then, looking at Li Zhaojing and said, "Surrender, I believe that if Lu Jianwei has a spirit in the sky, he doesn't want to see you do this." ”

"Shut up, you are not allowed to mention his name, what qualifications do you have to mention his name, if it weren't for you, and your woman, he wouldn't be like this, all of this will be caused by you, all by you."

Li Zhaojing roared almost frantically.

Xu Lang spat out a smoke ring, and he was silent.

Xu Lang was really optimistic about Lu Jianwei back then, and wanted to transfer him from the Chengxi Public Security Bureau to the second criminal investigation team, he thought so and did so, but Lu Jianwei did not join the second criminal investigation team in the end, and his psychological quality was not up to par, and the person who gave Lu Jianwei a psychological evaluation, in addition to the people from the psychological department, Shu Yue was also there at the time and participated in this psychological evaluation, and the opinion she gave was that Lu Jianwei had serious violent tendencies, and he also had psychological problems, so he was not suitable for entering the second criminal investigation team.

It stands to reason that Shu Yue is not a person from the psychology department, and her words should have little impact on Lu Jianwei, but after Lu Ye, the director of the General Public Security Bureau at the time, knew about this incident, he directly denied Lu Jianwei's request to join the second criminal investigation team, so strictly speaking, Lu Jianwei did not join the second criminal investigation team, and finally he chose to resign, thus embarking on the road of crime, Lu Ye and Shu Yue did play a certain role, but if Lu Jianwei joined the second criminal investigation team, with his psychological quality at that time, In the future work, no one knows whether there will be any big mess, and no one dares to guarantee it, Bu Zimo is a good example.

A cigarette was quickly finished, Xu Lang threw away the cigarette butt, looked at Li Zhaojing, and asked, "Is it worth it for you to do this?"

However, Li Zhaojing didn't seem to hear Xu Lang's words, she saw that Xu Lang didn't kneel, she turned around and walked to Ning Yanran's side, I don't know when, there was a sharp scalpel in her hand, she put the scalpel against Ning Yanran's neck, and yelled at Xu Lang, "You kneel down for me." ”

Just when Li Zhaojing made this move, Xu Lang put his hand behind him for the first time, and then, there was one more thing in his hand, which was a loaded pistol, the muzzle of which was pointed directly at Li Zhaojing, and he shouted in his mouth, "Let go of her." ”

Luo Quan, who was standing on the side, also took out two pistols from his waist for the first time when Xu Lang took out his gun, one pointed at Xu Lang, and the other pointed at Ning Yanran, who was tied to a tree.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense with Li Zhaojing's movements.

Li Zhaojing's eyes stared at Xu Lang deadly, holding a scalpel in her hand, against Ning Yanran's slender and white neck, the sharp blade made a shallow mark on her neck, and bright red blood gushed out at once, Li Zhaojing didn't notice this at all, she just stared at Xu Lang and shouted, "Kneel, otherwise, she will have to die, anyway, so many people have died, I don't care about another one." ”

Xu Lang's eyes when he saw the blood oozing from Ning Yanran's neck

Jumping violently, his eyes showed a nervous look, he didn't want Ning Yanran to die, and even, he didn't want Li Zhaojing and Luo Quan to die, but now this situation is no longer up to Xu Lang to decide.

Xu Lang looked at Li Zhaojing, who was out of control, and then looked at Luo Quan, who was expressionless and holding a gun in both hands, his hand holding the pistol trembled slightly, and finally, Xu Lang lowered his hand, put down the gun, looked at Li Zhaojing, and said, "Let go of her." ”

Xu Lang's action meant that he was ready to compromise, but Li Zhaojing's eyes bloomed with dazzling brilliance, as if this was what she wanted to see, and the control was back in her hands, and a victor's smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Li Zhaojing loosened the scalpel that was clinging to Ning Yanran's neck slightly, but did not take it away, while Xu Lang slowly turned around and faced Lu Jianwei's tombstone with a complicated expression.

Just as Xu Lang was about to kneel on his knees, Ning Yanran suddenly let out a poignant and sharp shout.

"Don't."

"Smack."

Another loud slap sounded, Ning Yanran's head tilted to the side again, and there was another slap mark on her face, but she stubbornly turned her head and looked at Xu Lang, tears filled her eyes again, and Xu Lang also turned her head to look at Ning Yanran at this time.

Looking at each other, there were no words, Ning Yanran still saw the determination and firmness on Xu Lang's face, she knew that Xu Lang chose to compromise for herself, she shook her head desperately at Xu Lang, and said vaguely "Don't, don't"

However, under Ning Yanran's desperate gaze, and under Li Zhaojing's gaze that gradually piled up a smile, Xu Lang knelt down.

The knees touched the ground, it was cold, and the sound was very small, but in the silent air, it seemed so harsh.

"Haha Jianwei, did you see that the person who killed you atoned for your sins, did you see it?"

After seeing Xu Lang kneeling, Li Zhaojing's face showed a crazy and sickly smile, and her body trembled violently with her laughter, and a line of clear tears gradually slipped down her eyes.

Ning Yanran turned her head, unwilling to see Xu Lang's humiliating scene, she felt that she was about to lose her breath, her heart was dripping blood, when Xu Lang chose to kneel down in order to save him, she knew that she would never forget this man in her life.

Li Zhaojing put down the scalpel from Ning Yanran's neck, and Luo Quan also put down the gun aimed at Ning Yanran, but the gun aimed at Xu Lang never let go, after all, Xu Lang also had a gun in his hand.

Li Zhaojing took two steps forward, turned her back to Ning Yanran, looked at Xu Lang and sneered, "Officer Xu, I didn't expect you to have today, aren't you known as a detective, aren't you the captain of the second criminal investigation team, aren't you a criminal investigation consultant, aren't you the leader of cy, your pride, your honor, your faith, aren't you kneeling here, police detective, hehe"

Xu Lang's kneeling seemed to have lost all his things, including his status as a policeman, his former honor, and his dignity, he knelt on the cold and wet ground, quietly looking at Lu Jianwei's photo, and didn't say a word.

It seems that Lu Jianwei's soul is back, maybe God can't stand it anymore. The bitter cold wind also howled at this time, blowing the surrounding trees and making a rustling sound, and the sky, which had been overcast for several days, also began to rain lightly at this time.

The rain fell from the sky drop by drop and smashed on Xu Lang's clothes, and soon, Xu Lang's clothes were soaked, and his flying snow-white hair, which was eaten by the cold wind, was also wet by the rain, and was tightly attached to his face, making it difficult to see his expression, Li Zhaojing looked at this scene proudly, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more intense.

"呲呲呲"

All thoughts were discouraged, and she couldn't wait for Li Zhaojing to stab Ning Yanran to death just now, but she suddenly felt movement behind her, the sound was very small, and it was covered by the swaying sound of the trees, so that Ning Yanran was not sure if she heard it wrong, however, next, she felt that her hand was tied behind her back, and someone touched it, it was a man's hand, a little rough, and then, there was an extremely subtle sound of a knife cutting the rope, which made Ning Yanran sure that there was someone behind her, and this person was not Xu Lang, nor Luo Quan, So who could this person be?

Ning Yanran held her breath, she didn't dare to gasp for breath, she didn't even dare to twist her body, let alone look behind her, she raised her head and looked at Li Zhaojing, who was facing away from her, and Luo Quan, who was holding a gun and aiming at the back of Xu Lang's head who was kneeling in front of Lu Jianwei's grave, neither of them noticed the movement on her side, which made Ning Yanran secretly relieved.

However, at this time, Luo Quan seemed to be aware of Ning Yanran's gaze, he turned his head and looked at Ning Yanran with a cold gaze, as if he was laughing at Ning Yanran, and seemed to be looking at a corpse, which made Ning Yanran's heart suddenly lift again, she did not look at Luo Quan, but skimmed over, as if she didn't want to see Luo Quan.

After Luo Quan saw Ning Yanran's expression, the corners of his stiff mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't pay attention to the poor policewoman, but put all his attention on the man who seemed to have lost everything at once.

Looking at the man kneeling in front of Lu Jianwei's grave, the corners of Luo Quan's mouth rose slightly, as if he had seen the scene he wanted to see the most, which made him extremely happy and excited.
