"Where is Panzi now? When did you make an appointment for delivery? A stone fell to the ground in his heart, and the tone of the person who came to speak was much more relaxed.

"I made an appointment tonight. I happened to be on duty today, and I asked him to look for me at the police station after 10 o'clock in the evening. Liu Panneng said quietly.

"You asked him to come to the police station to find you?" The person who came looked incredulous, "You're too bold, aren't you?" Aren't you afraid of being seen by the people in your unit? ”

"Haven't you heard that the more dangerous the place, the safer? Who would have thought that a robber would dare to come to the police station on his own initiative? Liu Panneng said disapprehantly, "Besides, after ten o'clock, the people on duty have gone to bed, who would know that he came to me?" ”

"Then how did he come up? Is it possible to walk in through the door? The visitor asked.

"How did you avoid the eyes and ears of the officers on duty in our house and come to me?" Liu Panneng did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Didn't I just say that? I came from our bank. ”

"The front door?"

"Of course not, it's the back door."

"Isn't that over, Panzi can also go through our back door here."

After hearing this, the visitor nodded suddenly.

"It's past nine o'clock." Liu Panneng picked up the watch on the bedside table and glanced at it, "Aren't you going back?" ”

"I'm not too worried about letting you face Panzi alone, I want to stay with you." The man hesitated and said, "I think the two of us will convince him together that the success rate will be higher." Anyway, there are two people on our side, and he is only one person, so he can put a little pressure on him mentally. ”

Liu Panneng always stood in place and did not move, looking noncommittal.

"How is your eldest girl now?" Liu Panneng suddenly changed his words and cared about the family, "I heard that she was hospitalized again." ”

"Not so good." In just three words, it was very difficult for someone to speak.

"What's the matter? Didn't you say that the bone marrow transplant was a success? Liu Panneng became more and more concerned.

"At first it was good, she was able to get out of bed and move around. However, the condition suddenly deteriorated last week, and the doctor said that there was a rejection reaction......"

The expression on the visitor's face became solemn again, and he covered his face with his hands, the muscles of his face twisted in pain.

"What's next? Is there any hope for her? ”

"With the current level of medical care, all the available treatments have been used, and bone marrow transplantation is the last hope......," said the man in a choked voice, "Now that all the treatments have been exhausted, there is nothing we can do." I had already picked her up from the hospital yesterday. Since there is no difference between hospitalization and homestay, there is no need to be hospitalized again, right? This daily hospital fee is also an expensive expense, and I really can't afford it. ”

"Can you just look at her with your eyes open......" Halfway through the words, Liu Panneng's throat tightened for a while, and he couldn't go on.

The person nodded weakly: "As parents, we have fulfilled our duties and obligations. We did everything we could for her, and the rest was left to fate! ”

"In the past few years, you have almost bankrupted your family to treat her, and you have used up all your savings. In order to raise the money for a bone marrow transplant, you even do not hesitate to do illegal and criminal things, but in the end, can you only get such a result? Liu Panneng said angrily, "God is too unfair." ”

"There is no fairness in this world." The man put away his sadness and said with a dark expression, "I just want to get the money quickly and fill the hole in the bank account now." The bank has already started the year-end reconciliation work, and it won't be long before what I did will be found out, and I must quickly make up for the money I had embezzled. Hopefully, it's still too late. ”

Liu Pan could listen, followed by another sigh.

"Don't just talk about me, what about you? Is Lili still divorcing you? ”

The gloom on Liu Panneng's face was a little thicker.

"I'm holding it steady for the time being. I promised her that I would settle the matter with the woman as soon as possible, and that I would not have anything to do with her again. ”

"What are you going to do with that woman?"

Liu Panneng muttered: "What else can I do?" You can only give money! Otherwise, she will go to the precinct. ”

"What about the baby in her womb? You're not going to ask for it either, are you? ”

Liu Panneng nodded, and said angrily: "Of course I can't ask for it." ”

"Are you just going to let her make money? Is there no other way to cure her? ”

"There is no way, I can only meet her request. Otherwise, if this thing comes out, I will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. If I'm unlucky, I'm afraid that my brother will be implicated. You also know how many pairs of eyes are staring at the position of deputy director! Now the top is very important to him, and it is the critical moment for him to climb up, and he can't get out of the half-point pool. ”

"You said you had the wrong tendon in the first place, how could you provoke that kind of woman?"

"I didn't expect this to happen! At that time, I thought that she was a person from Fengyue Place, and everyone was just joking. Who would have thought that she would be serious? I didn't expect her to be pregnant. Liu Panneng couldn't regret it.

"How serious is she with you? She clearly took you for the wrong. The person who came said hated that iron could not be made of steel, "How many women like her who came out of Fengyue are innocent?" Can you guarantee that the baby in her belly is yours? ”

"I can't care so much. I thought of giving her the money she asked for and sending her away, so that from then on the well water would not interfere with the river water. Liu Panneng waved his hand in annoyance, as if the woman was standing in front of him at the moment.

"Are you sure she won't come back to pester you when she gets the money?" The visitor questioned.

"It's useless for her to pester me anymore, I don't have any money for her!" Liu Panneng couldn't bear it anymore and said, "If she doesn't stop taking the money, let her make trouble!" If she doesn't want to let me go, let's just break the net, and no one wants to have a good life. I'm out of the way. ”

"Why bother? In that case, wouldn't everything you've done so far be in vain? The person who came comforted, "A knife on the head of the word ninja!" ”

"What have I done? I took such a big risk to get this money for this kind of thing. Liu Panneng sat back on the edge of the bed, and said with a tired sigh, "There is also a knife on the head of the color word!" ”

"I hope we can all survive this catastrophe safely!" Someone just sighed.

"You'd better go back and take care of the big girl as soon as possible! Leave the matter of convincing Panzi to me, and you will leave it alone. When he comes tonight, I'll try to probe his tone. If he really doesn't want to, we don't want to be too tough. I'm worried that if I push him too hard, it will do bad things. Liu Panneng said sneeringly, "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I will find an opportunity to contact you tomorrow, and then we will discuss the next countermeasures according to the development of the situation." ”

The visitor nodded noncommittally, then got up and walked towards the door. Before going out, the person who came turned around abruptly, stared at Liu Panneng for a long time, opened and closed his mouth, and after moving for a long time, he still didn't say anything after all, and turned around and walked away.

Liu Panneng stood at the door of the bedroom, watching the figure of the visitor gradually disappear into the darkness at the end of the corridor, and his heart seemed to sink into the incomparable darkness. There was a faint sound of "jingle bells" from the collision of metal objects in the distance, Liu Panneng mixed up with a spirit, subconsciously looked towards the other side of the corridor, and found that the commotion did not cause other chain reactions, and quickly closed the door of his bedroom.

The Xincheng District Police Station and the Yangcheng Branch of Xinfa Bank are two units next to each other on Chaoyang Avenue, sharing the same building. The building has four floors, of which the first to third floors are divided into two with the middle as the boundary, the east side is allocated to the Xincheng District Police Station, and the west side is allocated to the Xinfa Bank for office space. On the east side of the first floor is the reception window of the Xincheng District Police Station, on the west side is the business hall of the Yangcheng Branch of the Xinfa Bank, and on the second and third floors are the office buildings of the two families. As for the fourth floor, it was assigned to the Xincheng District Police Station as a whole and was used as a dormitory for the police on duty.

As the building was originally designed and built as a single unit, and the two units were not taken into account, although there are staircases at both ends of the building that can be used up and down, the middle part is throughout. For security reasons, the Xincheng District Police Station and Xinfa Bank built a cement wall on the connecting aisle between the first and third floors to block communication with each other before moving in. Subsequently, Xinfa Bank installed a gate at the staircase from the third floor to the fourth floor to block the last channel that could be connected to each other.

The director's bedroom where Liu Panneng lived when he was on duty was on the fourth floor of the Xinfa Bank, and the person who came—Bai Jingrong, the president of the Yangcheng branch of the Xinfa Bank—went straight up to the fourth floor through the gate and found Liu Panneng.
