Qi Yuan immediately sat up straighter, put his hands on his knees, and his whole body was very stiff.

"Kid." Seeing his performance, Qi Lao couldn't help but smile and shouted again.

"Hey...... Ay! Qi Yuan reacted at this time, and replied again and again, but then he was stuck again, and he didn't know what to call Qi Lao.

In fact, before he came, Qi Yuan thought about how to face Qi Lao after meeting him in the future.

He thought that after all, it was his grandfather, and after all, he had retired, although he was afraid that he would inevitably be a little nervous, but it should not be too unbearable.

didn't expect that after the real meeting, he couldn't even say a complete sentence.

Qi Yuan didn't expect that because the retired old secretary in front of him was his own grandfather, he was even more nervous and restrained.

I didn't expect that such a big guy, even if he looked smiling, stood in front of him, as if he had done something wrong, and he only felt dry mouth.

Don't talk about him, it's Su Ping, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, isn't he sitting there quietly at this time......

The old man Qi was old and refined, and even said, "Child, let's go out and talk, shall we?" ”

After thinking about it, Qi Yuan nodded and stood up.

Su Ping also stood up when he saw it.

Liu Ju immediately grabbed him, glanced at him, and then lowered his voice and said, "Their grandfather and grandson are nagging, what are you doing with you?" ”

Then he immediately said to Qi Lao: "Qi Lao, you are free, I will talk to Lao Su about the course of action to destroy the criminal gang, and I will not accompany you." ”

"It's okay," Qi Lao waved his hand: "It's important to get down to business, you can discuss it well."

Then he took Qi Yuan out of the room and walked to the aisle.

At this time, there was no one left and right, and Qi Lao didn't put up any shelves, half leaning on the protective wall, and reached out to take out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Qi Yuan.

"Thanks, I won't smoke, quit." Qi Yuan waved his hand again and again.

Qi Lao smiled: "It's good to quit, smoking is no good." ”

Then he asked, "Who gave you this name?" Strange injustice...... It's not good, it's better to change the name if you have the chance. ”

Qi Yuan was silent.

Qi Lao asked again, "What's your father's name now?" ”

"Didn't you find him?"

Qi Lao: ......

Qi Yuan successfully talked to the sky to death.

However, the old man looked at Yazi, who didn't care too much, and said to himself, "Qi Jiao, right?" Does it mean to be raised by someone else...... Alas! ”

"That's no one else," Qi Yuan pursed his lips and said very seriously: "He is also my grandfather, not someone else." ”

"Hehehe, child, I'm afraid in your heart, I'm the 'other person', right?" The old man laughed, then took out a cigarette, lit it and took two puffs, and then said, "But to me, he is someone else." ”

Qi Yuan frowned.

"It doesn't matter, don't worry too much, I have no intention of disturbing his current life." The old man suddenly changed his words, shook his head and said: "He is almost fifty years old, and most of his life has passed, and it doesn't hurt to know some things, and it doesn't make sense to know."

It can even be said that letting him know his life experience is not only not beneficial to anyone, but may cause a lot of trouble, so it is better to let him live in peace and stability. ”

"What about me?" Qi Yuan pursed his lips.

"You're different." Qi Lao shook his head and said, "You are still young and have infinite possibilities. Speaking of which, I do feel guilty about your father and son, and I want to compensate you, at least to give you a relatively fair environment, at least to ensure that under the premise that you are able, you will not be squeezed out by those related households. ”

"Thank you." Qi Yuan replied.

The old man smiled again, glanced back at him, and whispered, "I thought that you would be very repulsed by these things, and that you would feel that your life was being manipulated by others, or that you would not be used to these things. ”

"I'm not a pedantic fool." Qi Yuan shook his head lightly and said, "I won't do the kind of thing you said about not knowing the blessing in the blessing." ”

Qi Lao nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "I have paid attention to you, Xiao Xun and Xiao Su both have a high opinion of you. I also know the two of them, they are quite talented and proud.

Especially Xiao Su, if he didn't have real skills, he might have sold me face, but he would never give you a good face, let alone praise you. So it's quite rare to get such an evaluation from them.

Pity...... You may be able to be a good detective and become an elite detective, but your personality is not suitable for politics. ”

"I know." Qi Yuan finally let go a little, nodded lightly and said: "Maybe it's because of my experience since I was a child, my emotional intelligence is quite low, and it may be influenced by the Su team, and I also reject those twists and turns in the officialdom......

I have learned some things and have some awareness in this area, but it is also for self-protection, so as not to offend people unconsciously. ”

"So, you're not fit for politics, at least not for now." Qi Lao sighed lightly and said, "Emotional intelligence can be cultivated, as long as you have the heart, it will always get better and better."

But obviously, you don't have that in mind. Like you said, you're just doing it for self-preservation.

In this way, you will be able to climb to Xiao Su's current position in the future, but it is basically impossible to go further, even if you have my face, it is useless - after all, although I still have some connections now, in a few years, who will remember me as a bad old man?

As for your uncles and brothers...... They don't make it very good, so don't expect too much from them. ”

Qi Yuan shook his head: "I don't know what will happen in the future, now I just want to be worthy of my own conscience, worthy of the national emblem on my head, and do my job in a down-to-earth manner." If it weren't for this police dream, I wouldn't have applied for the police academy in the first place. ”

"yes, who can say what will happen in the future." Qi Lao only heard his first words, smiled again, and then patted him on the shoulder and asked, "You...... Is there anything you need? I ...... what can satisfy you."

"Nope." Qi Yuan pursed his lips and shook his head, then frowned slightly.

Qi Lao didn't care, but when he suddenly thought of what he needed, he couldn't help but raise his chin and let him continue.

After a while, Qi Yuan sighed lightly and said, "If you have to say it...... I hope you will give the Su team a chance as well. ”

"Oh?"

"He's a good cop, and he shouldn't be so suppressed just because he doesn't bother to flatter." Qi Yuan clenched his fists lightly and said, "No matter what reason he took care of me in the first place, he always has the grace of knowing me, if I can, I want to help him." ”

"He's ......" Qi Lao slowly narrowed his eyes, walked to the trash can, and snuffed out the cigarette butt.

"Isn't it possible?" Qi Yuan pursed his lips, a little disappointed.

"No, in a way, it's just a gesture for me to let him go further." Qi Lao shook his head and said, "I just didn't expect that you opened your mouth for him." ”

Qi Yuan immediately said: "Then ......"

"Wait, don't worry." Qi Lao shook his head and said, "You think carefully first, whether it is good or bad to let him go further." ”

He didn't understand this sentence, so he blurted out, "What do you mean?" ”

"As a second-in-command, more often than not, you just need to execute." Qi Lao said lightly: "It doesn't matter if your emotional intelligence is low, as long as your ability is enough."

But if you take it a step further...... He will be struggling. Because now he is a relatively pure policeman, not a politician. If you push him to the cusp, I am afraid that you will offend someone in the future, or stand in the way of someone...... Come to a sticky end. ”

Qi Yuan opened his mouth wide.

"You have a good heart, but don't do bad things with a good heart." Qi Lao said softly: "Why don't you find a chance to ask him what he means first, and then tell me." As I said, if you really need it, it's all a gesture - and it's still useful for me as a bad old man for the time being. ”

"Thank you." Qi Yuan said seriously, followed him for a while, took a breath, and added, "Thank you, grandpa!" ”

"Not bad!" Qi Lao's face was a little furrowed, and he nodded with satisfaction: "It's a bit of a brain, and I can pull my face, it's not like I'm not saved." ”

Qi Yuan squeezed out a little smile.

"Is there anything else you want? It can be said together. ”

Qi Yuan shook his head.

"It's okay, you don't have to answer me in a hurry, when you think of it, just say it." Qi Lao patted him on the shoulder again.

After pondering for a moment, Qi Yuan asked tentatively: "Grandpa, regardless of personality factors, do you want me to be a pure criminal policeman, or ...... Politics? ”

"Strictly speaking, I don't want to." Qi Lao said very directly: "After all, the criminal police are dangerous, and the same is true of officialdom. Even in business, shopping malls are like battlefields. In fact, no matter what field, if you want to climb to a certain height, it is always accompanied by a burst of bloody rain.

Therefore, from the perspective of 'grandfather' alone, I only hope that you can be an ordinary middle class, eat and drink, have a house and a car, have a stable income, and then marry a daughter-in-law who matches your three views, give birth to a pair of children, and live this life without disasters and diseases. ”

"I want to, too." Talking about this topic, Qi Yuan was much more relaxed, nodded and said: "No matter what you think, the middle class and well-off families should be a group of people with the highest sense of happiness." ”

Qi Lao nodded.

"But ......," Qi Yuan continued, "someone has to carry the weight forward." I am a person who likes and is easy to move myself, carrying the weight of others and carrying the ups and downs on my own shoulders...... I love this feeling, and that's how my dream of being a police officer comes from.

When I was in Secondary 2, I thought the police were heroes, and I wanted to be heroes. Now it's actually the same, I like this feeling, especially under the protection of the Su team and the Xun team, I don't have to think about so many twists and turns, I just need to do my job, this feeling, I like it more.

The most important thing is that I have been guided by the Soviet team for a year, and now I want to be like him, to be a torchbearer - or torchbearer, and pass on the flame of justice.

Because...... People like Team Su always can't help but like and admire, and I want to be a person like him, to be admired, and I enjoy that feeling. ”

"If you just enjoy this feeling, your realm is still a little different from Xiao Su." Qi Lao raised his head and looked at the dark night sky.

At some point, dark clouds gathered in the sky, the stars and the moon were all invisible, and the air was still very dull, thinking that it was going to rain heavily.

After looking at it for a while, Qi Lao spoke again: "But...... The saint does not care about the heart, there is no saint in the world, no matter what your purpose is, as long as you can do Xiao Su, it is good. ”

"So, grandpa, you really still support me as a criminal policeman, right?"

"Compared to politics, the criminal police are indeed suitable for you." Qi Lao muttered: "Besides, now, the danger of the criminal police is also decreasing, and there are fewer and fewer criminals who are mad......"

Thundered!

As soon as the words fell, the sky suddenly brightened, and a lightning bolt struck, igniting half of the night sky, followed by a deafening thunder.

This seemed to be some kind of signal, after the thunder, the wind suddenly rose, and the wind blew stronger and stronger, and the rain was probably about to fall.

"Grandpa, go back," Qi Yuan said softly, "It's windy outside." ”

"Hmm." Qi Lao responded, put his hands on his back, but walked in another direction, and said as he walked: "You can go back by yourself, don't worry about me." ”

"......"

"Let's go back!"

Qi Yuan paused, while Qi Lao went downstairs.

Soon, his figure disappeared from Qi Yuan's line of sight. Qi Yuan stood for a while, then turned around, returned to the door of the room, and knocked lightly.

The door was quickly opened, and Su Ping stood behind the door, and the figure of the iron tower version filled Qi Yuan's vision.

"Let's go." Su Ping said.

"Where are you going?"

"Go back." He replied, "It's going to rain hard, so get in the car before it rains." ”

"Oh." Qi Yuan took two steps back to let Su Ping come out, and then silently followed behind Su Ping.

After walking a few steps, Su Ping suddenly spoke: "What's the matter, look at your low interest, you are unhappy with the old secretary?" ”

"No, grandpa, he is easier to get along with than I expected, and the conversation is more relaxed, in short, the situation is much more harmonious than I expected."

Su Ping smiled suddenly: "What do you expect?" What does it look like? He asked you to call grandpa, but you covered your mouth and didn't shout; He reasoned with you, and you blocked your ears and said that you don't listen or don't listen? ”

"......" The corner of Qi Yuan's eyes twitched: "Team Su, why do you think so much?" ”

"Isn't it?"

"It's pretty much the same." Qi Yuan turned his face away and coughed dryly.

A few minutes later, he added: "I think it's good to be like this now, naturally." He only felt guilty about me and my father, but he didn't have much affection for him, and I didn't have much affection for him, I just felt weird in my heart...... So the current way of getting along is good for everyone. ”

"You can think so." Su Ping replied.

Soon went downstairs, a soldier returned Su Ping's firearms, handcuffs and other police equipment, he thanked him, put it away, and got into the car with Qi Yuan, and drove directly to the direction of Pingkuan County.

Not long after the car started, Qi Yuan suddenly asked: "By the way, Team Su, have you ever thought about going further in your career?" ”

"Huh?"
