Several people chatted in the office until noon, and it wasn't until Gu Song's stomach was so hungry that they made a gurgling sound that everyone realized that time had passed unconsciously.

"Let's go, let's eat!" Qiao Sheng was the first to stand up, grabbed the jacket on the back of the chair and said to the other people, "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, I have a treat." ”

"I'm going to eat Australian lobster!" Gu Song also stood up, looking at Qiao Sheng with a smile, and Qi Ruonan immediately said, "Report to the captain, I want to eat Australian abalone!" ”

"Nope!" Qiao Sheng glanced at the two of them, and said to himself, "Let's go to the dumpling restaurant at the door to eat dumplings." ”

"Cut, it's stingy." Gu Song pursed his lips boringly, and glanced at Qi Ruonan. The latter immediately understood, showed a very aggrieved expression, and said coquettishly: "Team Qiao, you are too impersonal, it doesn't matter if you don't let people go home to rest during the New Year, you don't invite us to have a good meal to appease our wounded hearts." ”

"That's right." Gu Song took over the conversation, "The case has developed like this now, and there is still a lot of work to be done next." If you don't hurry up and treat me to this sick number, how can I do my best to assist you in your work. ”

"That's right, my brother's injuries haven't healed yet. Shouldn't people be rewarded for working while sick? ”

"Well, can't we change it?" Qiao Sheng was afraid that they would continue to grind, so he hurriedly made a gesture of surrender. "I really can't stand the two of you, you sing and harmonize, and you cooperate quite tacitly. It's a shame that the two of you aren't together. ”

Hearing this, Qi Ruonan's face flushed, turned his head and muttered in a low voice, "Who wants to be with him, a big carrot...... who knew that at this time, Gu Song suddenly said to Qiao Sheng seriously: "Brother, don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum, I already have a girlfriend, okay." ”

"Huh? When did this happen? Qi Ruonan stared at Gu Song with a pair of round eyes, feeling that this matter was very incredible. At the same time, she was a little lost in her heart, and even had a hint of inexplicable vinegar.

Qi Ruonan and Gu Song graduated from the same police academy. Gu Song is two years older than her, and the two of them met when they were studying, and they are very familiar with each other, and they often call each other brothers and sisters.

At that time, there were many girls in the school who liked Gu Song, including her, of course. It's just that her liking is the kind of like that is secretly hidden in her heart, because she doesn't want to find such an eye-catching boy as a boyfriend.

She knew that Gu Song had a girlfriend when she was in college. The girl was the school girl of their school, and she was very beautiful. The two of them seem to be a very good match together, and appearing on campus in pairs always attracts everyone's attention.

Later, I don't know what happened, the girl left the school and disappeared from the world. For a long time after that, Gu Song was like a different person, silent all day long, and his personality was terrifyingly gloomy.

There are various versions of rumors circulating in the school about this. Some say that the two men were involved in a terrible case, and that the girl was overly frightened and insane. Some people also say that the girl died in an accident and the cause of death is strange. The school was afraid that this matter would have a bad impact, so it kept it a secret from the outside world.

After so many years, Qi Ruonan has never known what happened back then. Every time she asked about it, Gu Song interrupted her impatiently, and then changed the topic, completely avoiding talking about it. Although after a few months of adjustment, Gu Song has become as talkative and laughing as before, and has regained his former cheerfulness, but he is no longer looking for a girlfriend and seems to be completely uninterested in falling in love.

Now that he suddenly heard that Gu Song had a girlfriend, Qi Ruonan certainly felt incredible.

Gu Song saw her fussy look, and couldn't help but tease her: "What's the matter, Ruonan, are you jealous?" Who told you not to confess to me earlier, now you don't have a chance, right? ”

Qi Ruonan frowned, and responded not to be outdone: "Who is rare to be with someone like you, there is no sense of security at all." If I choose a boyfriend, I would rather find a down-to-earth and reliable man like Fan Cong. As soon as the words fell, I saw a tall man with thick eyebrows and a square face push the door and walk into the office.

As soon as he saw Fan Cong, Gu Song began to clap his hands and coax: "Together!" Together! ”

Fan Cong glanced at everyone in the room in confusion and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?" Who's going to be with whom? ”

Gu Song just wanted to say: Our beloved little police flower has just confessed to you, and you finally got off the list before the Chinese New Year. Before he could speak, Qi Ruonan glared at him viciously and said, "Senior brother, I found that you talked a little too much today!" You haven't told us who your new girlfriend is? ”

"What? Do you have a girlfriend? Fan Cong looked at Gu Song dumbfounded, acting even more surprised than Qi Ruonan. Gu Song pushed him and said angrily, "Have you two made enough trouble?" I'm looking for a girlfriend, not a boyfriend, so you don't have to make such a fuss. ”

"Brother Xin, is what he said true?" Fan Cong turned his inquiring gaze to Zhong Xin. The latter smiled faintly and replied, "You should know that girl is Nurse Tian from Ryan Medical Center, the one who helped Gu Song find the coordinates." ”

Qiao Sheng suddenly let out an "oh" on the side, then looked at his watch, and said to them: "If you want to have lunch, come with me, and those who think I'm stingy can go and eat lobster and abalone by themselves." ”

Gu Song and Qi Ruonan looked at each other for a moment, shrugged their shoulders, and said, "Someone invites you to eat, if you don't go, you won't go in vain." ”

The five of them went to a Zigong restaurant near the police station. Gu Song was really not polite to Qiao Sheng, and ordered a table full of dishes. A few people chatted while eating. At the beginning, they were all very interested in Gu Song's girlfriend, and they caught him like gossip reporters and asked him questions. Chatting and chatting, Gu Song became a little impatient. He put down his chopsticks and said to Qiao Sheng with a serious expression: "Captain, can I ask you something?" ”

"What's wrong?" Qiao Sheng was busy picking up vegetables, and asked without raising his head.

"Are you going to continue to arrest Wei Chiliang next? Or go find this murderer X? ”

Hearing this question, Qiao Sheng froze there all of a sudden, and suddenly felt that he had no appetite. He silently took a few puffs of his cigarette and replied in a very tangled manner: "The conclusions we reached in the morning are just our speculations, and we do not have any evidence to prove that these cases were committed by the murderer X. ”

"What? Murderer X? Fan Cong dropped the ribs he had just clamped on the table with a "snap", and he found that he seemed to have missed a lot of key information this morning. "What the hell are you talking about? Why can't I keep up with your pace? ”

This time, Qi Ruonan patiently described the content of their discussion to Fan Cong. After hearing this, Fan Cong gave Gu Song a thumbs up and said, "Brother, I will definitely support you!" I don't think the matter of finding Yu Chiliang is very reliable in itself. If you continue to check at this rate, it is estimated that you may not be able to catch that kid until next year's New Year. ”

"Ahem...... cough a few times, and quietly glanced at Fan Cong. The latter noticed Qiao Sheng's gloomy expression as if he was about to kill. "I'm sorry, Team Joe, I didn't mean to hit you. It's just ......" Fan Cong scratched his hair awkwardly and continued, "In the past few days, I have been running outside with my brothers, and we have searched almost all the places where we can stay overnight, whether it is a hotel, a rental house, a nightclub or a hair washing room, and we have not found any suspicious information at all."

"You said that Wei Chiliang is going to stay in R City for so long, and the preparations before committing the crime are so cumbersome, he must have a place to stay. He is a rich young master, he has been pampered by his father since he was a child, and even if he is wanted by the police, he is not the kind of person who can sleep in bridge caves and park benches. What's more, we have already asked the homeless people about the situation, and they have not been able to provide any valuable information.

"Maybe there are still some places where we can hide people that we haven't found, maybe Wei Chiliang has learned disguise and disguise in the past two years, and we haven't found this bastard in the vast sea of people. But if it is really like what Gu Song said, it is not Wei Chiliang who killed people at all, but someone else, and even if we break our legs, it is impossible to find his trace. It's just a waste of everyone's time to go any further. ”

Qiao Sheng was silent for a while, and his low mood eased slightly. "I didn't say that I didn't agree with Gu Song's reasoning, but it was useless to only agree with me, because what I said didn't count. This time, the case is too serious, and the provincial department has sent leaders to supervise and handle the case. As for what to do next, what to do, they are the ones who make the final decision, not me, I am just in charge of carrying out the task.

"I will truthfully reflect the situation that Gu Song said to the leaders above, as for how they will deal with this matter, I really don't dare to make any promises to you. But......" Qiao Sheng paused, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued, "I still have some power in my hands, if you insist on following this path to investigate, then do what you think." Find out the relationship between Yu Chiliang and the murderer X, and come up with some decent evidence. If you encounter any difficulties, you will report them to me immediately, and I will definitely do my best to help you. ”

"Thank you, Team Joe, I will definitely live up to your trust." Fan Cong was the first to make a statement, followed by Qi Ruonan and Gu Song. When it was Zhong Xin's turn, he just said leisurely, "Don't ask me, I'm just a bodyguard." After speaking, he glanced at Gu Song, who immediately gave him a grateful smile.

"Oh, yes, there's one more thing." Qiao Sheng reminded them, "Allow you to do a special investigation and don't let more people know about it, so as to save them from gossiping behind their backs and saying that I am biased." ”

"You are indeed a little eccentric, and you always value my brother's ideas." Qi Ruonan half-jokingly told the truth.

Qiao Sheng smiled noncommittally and said, "I admit that in the face of my family, sometimes I do invest more emotions than others. But don't forget, when this kid makes mistakes, I scold him much more than you scold. ”

"It's true." Fan Cong gloated, and suddenly felt a lot more balanced in his heart.
