Everyone craves the attention of others, especially the people they care about the most.

"Dad!"
In the dead of night, an exclamation broke the silence.
Liu Xingyu woke up from his dream and sweated profusely.
She had a nightmare, and her father ...... He was surrounded by the police, shot to death, and bled all over the ground.
Just like the scene where Yu Mianmian collapsed a month ago.
"How can you ...... like this," Star whispered.
Now that I wake up, I am still scared and creepy.
Are you still haunted by the death of sleep?
Or, have you been busy with work all these years and have been ignoring your father and feeling guilty?
With a long breath, Xingyu got out of bed, walked to the window, and slowly opened the curtains.
Outside, it's dark, and you can't see the way forward.
"What's wrong with me?" Xingyu shook his head vigorously, however, the scene in the dream still lingered.
"Toot!" At this moment, the mobile phone on the table made a soft sound.
"Who is it in the middle of the night?" Xingyu frowned, closed the curtains, and turned to pick up the phone.
When I opened it, it was a document, and the sender was Li Wenbo.
Xingyu smiled bitterly.
When she came back from Longtan, she had been busy with other things, and she didn't fall asleep until late at night, and she had forgotten what she said before.
She opened the file, and sure enough, it was surveillance footage of the bank robbery.
In the picture, two men in black, wearing masks, rushed into the bank, knocked the security guards unconscious, and controlled the gate.
"It's so professional, shoot at the first time, deter everyone from moving, and there is no chance to call the police!"
Xingyu stared intently, and suddenly, his eyebrows furrowed.
That tall man, that back, so familiar.
In particular, the scene of the man carrying the bank manager to the safe shocked her heart.
"Dad?" Xingyu exclaimed
When she was a child, she was bullied by the big boy, and her father did the same, like carrying a chicken, and directly lifted the big boy away.
That action, more than once.
It's the same as in the video.
Xingyu couldn't believe it.
"No, no!" Xingyu shook his head, "How could Dad rob a bank?" ”
Suppressing distractions, Xingyu continued to read.
In the picture, a little girl stands up, holds a rag doll, and hands it to the emaciated man.
And the man, who didn't hurt the little girl, took the rag doll and subconsciously touched the little girl's head.
"Uncle Yang?" Xingyu exclaimed again.
"No, no, how could it be, he used to be a soldier!"
Xingyu hurriedly walked to the computer and opened a video.
On a bus, a middle-aged man slapped a little girl, someone stood up, punched and kicked the middle-aged man, and then, touched the little girl's head, and took her off the bus.
The person who made the shot was Yang Fajiu.
When this happened, someone recorded it with a mobile phone and posted it on the Internet, and for a while, it went viral.
Xingyu watched the two pictures back and forth, comparing them repeatedly, and they were exactly the same!
Xingyu closed her eyes in pain.
The answer is coming!
Although I didn't look at their faces, whether it was from the physical characteristics, or the familiar movements, plus Ke'er said, they were two old grandfathers, Xingyu could almost conclude that the people who robbed the bank were Dad and Uncle Yang.
Xingyu couldn't help but remember that when she came home from the sanatorium, her father, Uncle Yang, Yudie, and Xu Xiaobo seemed to be discussing something, but she suddenly opened the door and interrupted them, and the four of them were unusually panicked.
"Why, why!" Xingyu roared, struggling and powerless in his heart.
What should she do?
Could it be that the clues she found should be reported to the Public Security Bureau?
It should be so, she is a public security officer, this is her duty, and it is a matter of course.
But that's Dad!
Could it be that she wants to capture him with her own hands?
Dad was against her becoming a police officer, but when she was admitted, he bought champagne to celebrate her, and since then, he has been silently supporting her and encouraging her to move forward.
That's her hero.
"It's not true, it's not!"
For a long time, Xingyu's gaze became firm.
It's too early to make a conclusion, how can you tell that it's a father without seeing the face of a person?
She didn't want to believe it.
Packing up his mood, Xingyu got up and walked out of the door.
She returned to the police station, picked up a police car, and headed north.
The night wind was fierce, raging the weeds and trees on the roadside, staggering from side to side.
The windows kept open, and in the wind, the stars were flying wildly, and the ears were whining.
"My little star is a phoenix in the sky, and it can fly 90,000 miles with its wings!"
"Little star, you have made meritorious contributions again today, Dad is proud of you!"
"Little star, remember, the pain you are experiencing now will help you one day in the future!"
"Little star, as a people's public security, you should be loyal to your duties, finally the law, finally the people, not someone, this is not just a job, but also your beliefs, will not change because of someone or something!"
"Little star, dad is old, you will investigate the case in the future, be careful, and take care of yourself!"
Involuntarily, the past came to my mind one after another.
That majestic and kind figure has been circling in Xingyu's mind.
I don't know when she burst into tears.
In the chaos of thoughts, the police car slowly drove into Anseong.
Coming downstairs, Xingyu parked.
On the third floor, the lights are dotted and the figures are faint.
Xingyu got out of the car, raised his head, looked at the light, looked at the figure, still so familiar.
Dad was at home, still with the lights on, waiting for her to come back.
No matter how late it was, it had become a habit for him to wait for her.
Xingyu panicked in her heart.
In the past, no matter how tired she was, as long as she came back and looked at the lamp, she could be excited.
Now, she stopped downstairs, hesitated, and was a little scared to go home.
The wind continued to blow.
Xingyu didn't take a step for a long time.
She stood in the wind, helpless as she had never been.
"What should be faced, must be faced after all!"
After a long time, Xingyu finally moved his body, stepped on heavy steps, and slowly went upstairs.
Coming to the door, taking a deep breath, she, pushed the door open.
"Ah, Little Star is back!"
Liu Haitian really didn't sleep, and got up from the sofa, as kind as ever.
"I ask you, did you do this?" Xingyu made a straight face, turned on the surveillance video in his mobile phone, and threw it on the sofa.
She didn't know why this was happening, just downstairs, she kept telling herself, be calm.
However, when she saw her father's appearance, the more she showed concern for her, the more angry she became.
As soon as they met, she looked at each other coldly.
"Kid, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Haitian was stunned for a moment, picked up the phone, and when he saw the video inside, his complexion couldn't help but change, and in an instant, he returned to his normal color.
"I'll ask you again, Huifeng Bank, did you rob it!"
Xingyu stepped forward and stared at his father, his eyes blazing.
"Do you think I am your prisoner?" Liu Haitian restrained his smile, "I'm your father!" ”
"I don't admit it yet!" Xingyu roared, "You are wearing a mask, others may not recognize you, but I can see at a glance, yes, you are my father, but why did you rob the bank?" Have you ever considered my feelings? ”
"You doubt me, don't you?" Liu Haitian laughed miserably and stretched out his hands, "Arrest me, torture me away!" ”
"I ......" the star whispered.
She hadn't thought about it, she was just talking angry.
She hadn't thought about arresting her father.
"You either don't come back for a long time, and when you come back, you don't ask me how I'm doing, but you interrogate me like a prisoner, too, I'm old, it's useless!"
Liu Haitian looked lonely, turned around gloomily, and walked into the room.
When I came out again, I had one more piece of luggage.
"Dad, you...... What are you doing? Xingyu was startled and stopped Liu Haitian.
"I'm really old! Tonight, I'm sixty-three, you have forgotten, I waited all night, not even a phone call, but a trial! Liu Haitian said, "No one takes care of me, I have to plan for myself, I have to take care of myself, at least, don't drag others down!" ”
Liu Haitian said, carrying his luggage, bypassing his daughter, and walked out of the door dejectedly.
Starlanguage froze in place.
Looking at her father's back, she now realized that at some point, he had staggered, and his waist had bent a little.
Before I knew it, my father was already old.
She wanted to chase after her, but her feet, as if held by some force, could not take a step.
She could only watch as the bleak back faded away and disappeared into the darkness.
"Dad! Woooooo ”
Xingyu cried.
The most solid backing in her heart collapsed.
This home is down!
Xingyu's heart ached like a knife, and she cowered on the floor, trembling and desolate.
"Click!" There was a soft sound in the bedroom, and then, Yang Fajiu walked out with his luggage.
He stopped as he passed by Xingyu.
"Your mother left too early, Brother Tian is afraid that you will be wronged, he will try to give you whatever you want, you are a public security policeman, he does charity everywhere, helping those poor children, what is he trying to do? I just want you to have a good reputation in the Public Security Bureau, he doesn't want to embarrass you, he has already done what he can do, I think, he is worthy of the word father......"
Hearing this, Xingyu raised his head and looked at Yang Fajiu in a daze.
"Yes, you are a public security criminal policeman, you should be dedicated to public duty and conscientious, this is the most basic quality, but he is your father after all, kindness is greater than heaven, no matter what he does, whether it is right or wrong, everything is for you, even if he really breaks the law and commits crimes, you can arrest him, but, you can't blame him! He can say whatever others say, but you can't! Because, before you are a police officer, first of all, you are a person! You say he didn't consider your feelings, but did you think about his feelings? Who valued him? ”
"Uncle Yang......" Xingyu wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
"It is said that there are sons and daughters, and the old have something to rely on, but how many people are there who have something to rely on?" Yang Fajiu shook his head, stopped staying, and disappeared at the door.
The wind, fierce, fierce, kept beating against the window.
Xingyu suddenly stood up, ran to the window, and let the wind blow his face,
She saw that the two old men, carrying their luggage, supported each other in the strong wind, and walked away step by step.
