"You can contact her again in a moment to confirm her ticket purchase and the frequency of the train." Huang Fangyuan admonished with some unease.

"Don't worry, I've been staring." Wang Xiangrui patted his chest and replied.

"Keep an eye on it, don't make a mistake."

"The tone of your voice is exactly the same as Team Xu." Wang Xiangrui joked, "We have been partners for so many years, when did I fall off the chain?" ”

Huang Fangyuan laughed and said, "You also know that I am so sick, if I don't say such a sentence, my heart is always unsteady." ”

"Team Xu, did they say who will be responsible for contacting the deceased's mother tomorrow?" Wang Xiangrui restrained his joking tone and returned to the topic.

"Not yet." Huang Fangyuan shook his head and said.

"This kind of errand work is probably going to fall on us." Wang Xiangrui said in a clear tone.

While the two were talking, Ge Bin pushed the door in. Seeing this, Huang Fangyuan immediately ordered again: "You hurry up and call Xu Zhonghui." As he spoke, he didn't forget to look up at the wall clock on the wall of his office, and saw that the dial was showing the current time "eleven twenty-eight", and added, "Be sure to contact him tonight." ”

Ge Bin immediately dragged the landline on the table and dialed Xu Zhonghui's mobile phone. While waiting for the phone to connect, he unconsciously flipped through the sheets of printer paper on the table, which contained information about the deceased and her husband's household registration. Looking at it, his eyes were locked on the photo above. At the same time, the ringtone in the receiver has stopped, replaced by a voice that says "Your call is not answered for the time being, please dial again later".

Ge Bin put down the earpiece, waved the information in his hand, and said to Huang Fangyuan: "Boss, I have seen these two people." ”

One sentence attracted the attention of the other two, and Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui instantly focused their attention on Ge Bin.

"Where have you seen these two?" Huang Fangyuan was the first to ask.

"On the day of Enron's funeral." Ge Bin explained solemnly, "I once saw Xu Zhonghui and these two people together in the parking lot of the funeral home, and then I saw these two people also standing in the crowd of condolences at the memorial service of An Ran. ”

"From this point of view, the deceased is the nanny of An Ran's life." Huang Fangyuan muttered.

"Hmm." Ge Bin affirmed, "And these two people came and went in a hurry, and as soon as the farewell ceremony was over, these two people left without making any too many stops." ”

Huang Fangyuan's expression gradually began to become solemn.

"Did Xu Zhonghui's call get through?"

"Nope. The bell rang, but no one answered. Ge Bin replied truthfully.

"Could it be that you're already asleep?" Wang Xiangrui guessed, "It's past half past eleven, and most of the people are asleep at this time." ”

"I think he might have poured himself into a puddle of mud somewhere." Ge Bin said disdainfully with a look of disdain.

"You keep fighting. No matter how late it is, be sure to reach him. Huang Fangyuan ordered in a cold tone.

Ge Bin received the order and dialed Xu Zhonghui's phone again. At this time, Deputy Director Cui and others also returned to the institute and called Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui away.

Xu Zhonghui looked at the mobile phone on the dashboard, and the screen was shining brightly at the moment - in order not to disturb the peace of mind of the sleeping on the side, he turned the mobile phone to silent - it displayed an unfamiliar phone number. Tonight, this number has already appeared three times. He reached out and pressed the power button, and the screen went dark instantly. He glanced at the clock on his dashboard again, and it was past twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Peace of mind, wake up, you're home." Xu Zhonghui finally opened his mouth to wake up the peace of mind that was sleeping soundly.

An Xin struggled to open her sleepy eyes, turned her head, and looked at the scenery outside the car window before realizing that she was outside the villa.

"Why did I fall asleep?" She had just woken up from her sleep, and her voice was still a little hoarse, "It's so unbelievable for you to drive me back, I fell asleep halfway by myself." ”

Xu Zhonghui looked at her with a smile and said softly: "You usually say that you have poor sleep quality, many dreams, and easy to wake up, but it is rare to see you sleep so solidly today, it is really not easy." ”

"I don't know how, I'm stuck like this today." Anxin himself was also confused, "I'm just sorry, I'm glad you made such a trip." ”

"It's my pleasure to let you get a good night's sleep." Xu Zhonghui said disappreciatively.

"What time is it?" After saying goodbye, he turned his eyes to look at the dashboard, "Oh my God, how long have I been asleep?" ”

When Xu Zhonghui heard this, he really snapped his fingers and counted them seriously. "Ten o'clock, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, more than three hours." At the same time, he didn't forget to tease, "It's like a little pig, and it's quite sleepy." ”

Anxin's face turned red.

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner?"

"Seeing that you sleep so soundly, I can't bear to disturb you." Xu Zhonghui said frankly with a smile in his eyes.

In order to alleviate his embarrassment, An Xin quickly changed the topic and said, "How can you go back so late?" ”

"Hmm...... I'll see if I can get a taxi now. Xu Zhonghui picked up the mobile phone on the dashboard, intending to find the APP of the online car-hailing platform, "Ah! The phone is out of battery and automatically shuts down. ”

"Then don't call a taxi, it's not easy to call a car at this point, you can drive my car back!" Anxin suggested.

"So what are you going to do tomorrow morning at work? What to drive? Seeing that Anxin also began to think about this question, Xu Zhonghui pointed to another silver-gray Mercedes-Benz E300 in the garage and asked, "Is this the temporary scooter?" ”

An An glanced back and nodded, "Yes." ”

Xu Zhonghui said again: "Why don't I drive this car back!" ”

An Xin immediately spoke: "You better drive my Ferrari away!" I drove it to work, it was too ostentatious. I think you're right to drive, and you can handle the horsepower, as long as you don't overspeed. As soon as the words fell, she couldn't wait to turn sideways to open the door, and at the same time told Xu Zhonghui: "Then you go back to rest early!" Good night. ”

An Xin had just stretched out one leg outside the car door when Xu Zhonghui suddenly grabbed her arm.

"Wait a minute, rest assured, I have something to ask you." Xu Zhonghui changed his previous joking tone and looked very serious.

Seeing this, Anxin retracted his legs, closed the car door again, faced him with a straight face, and asked, "What do you want to ask?" ”

Xu Zhonghui showed hesitation at the moment, his eyes kept flickering, as if he was making a major decision related to his life.

"Just ask me if there's anything!" Anxin urged.

After a few dozen seconds, Xu Zhonghui finally spoke: "Peace of mind, have you ever heard of the name 'Gu Hangzhou'?" ”

After asking, he took a deep breath and looked at Anxin's eyes full of uneasiness.

"Gu Hangzhou?" Anxin repeated these three words, trying to search for characters that matched them in his memory, "I have the impression that when I was a child, there seemed to be a 'Uncle Gu' in our family who often came to visit the door, but I don't know if he was called 'Gu Hangzhou'. ”

Xu Zhonghui's eyes suddenly lit up at this moment.

"As a child? How small? ”

Seeing that Xu Zhonghui suddenly became a little excited, Anxin replied inexplicably: "What's wrong with you?" Has anyone approached you lately? ”

Xu Zhonghui didn't answer and asked: "What kind of person do you mean by 'Uncle Gu'?" ”

"Zhonghui, I don't think you've been in great shape lately." Anxin didn't answer, but said what was in his heart uneasily, "Not only do you drink excessively, but you always make some outrageous behaviors, I really don't worry about you." What the hell is wrong with you? ”

Xu Zhonghui turned a deaf ear to this, and was just eager to find his answer.

"I'll talk about it later, you tell me about that 'Uncle Gu' first. You said that when you were a child, he used to visit your house, when was that? What happened after that?? ”

An An sighed lightly, and replied helplessly: "At that time, I was only four or five years old, and I was still in kindergarten, this Uncle Gu also lived in that private house, and the houses of our two families were not far away, and he also studied in the same middle school as his uncle, and the two of them have been in contact with each other after work, often coming and going, and later going south to do business together." It's a pity that he couldn't stick to it due to lack of funds and went home. If he persists for another year, he may earn the first pot of gold in his life like my uncle, and his fate will be completely changed after that. ”
