"No wonder Lao Di didn't even say a word when he saw Zhuang Yan, we kept looking at the direction of the smoke outside the window when we entered the house, and we looked worried." Dong Jian swept his palm towards Liu Lian's red wine glass, "You drink less, no one will send you back later." ”

Liu Lian still listened to him, picked up the red wine glass and raised it to me, "We will be colleagues in the future, take care of me." ”

"You're a senior, take care of me." The two of us finished the glass of wine together.

"Although they haven't seen each other much recently, their love is still there, and they will probably be a little worried when something happens." Zhang Dashan took Dong Jian's words, looked at him and said.

"How many of them?" I asked, a little confused.

"Haha, Xiaozhuang, you don't know yet, your boss Di Shiyong and Zhang Dashan's father are old comrades-in-arms and old partners. At that time, they were all in the peacekeeping force, in order to save Li Shukang and several of their medical researchers who were trapped in Africa, Di Shiyong and they kept fighting all night and were seriously injured, and they did not give up until the last moment to help each other escape from the tiger's den. So after returning to China, they became best friends, and his father and your boss were lifelong friends. Oh, by the way, his dad is in the provincial hall now..."Luo Qian was still talking and was suddenly interrupted by Zhang Dashan.

"Say without a suffix, drink." Zhang Dashan took the lead in raising his wine glass, although there was no official stand, but the aura was still there.

Once again, the wine glasses on the table were drained.

"But later, after Li Shukang returned to China, he became a businessman, and the business was somewhat problematic, and my father was no longer willing to be involved with him too much." Putting down the wine glass, Zhang Dashan added.

"I know that Lao Di occasionally meets him, but I can see that most of the two of them are talking about the past in a high-sounding way, and only they know how much real love is left." Dong Jian also seems to know something.

"Forget about their old man's business, a few of us are really in love anyway, are you right, in love? Hahaha. Luo Da Cannon was amused without concealment, and raised his glass to Liu Lian beside him.

Liu Lian glanced at him with squinted eyes, the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted and he didn't twist it, and he raised his glass to drink the red wine in the glass.

Dong Jian saw it in his eyes but didn't say anything more.

After three rounds of drinking, the four men were still chatting with relish, and the only female guest was already in a trance, a slender hand holding her already reddened neck, and her eyes gradually became a little blurred.

"There have been too many cases lately, and I can't get busy at all, and I can't hold meetings all day long, and I have time to squeeze out a small gathering with you." Zhang Dashan complained, but looking at his calm appearance, it was clear that he was enjoying the pressure of work.

"Isn't it already a lot better? At the beginning of the year, you were working overtime to solve the case even during the New Year, and it seemed that the effect was remarkable for most of the year, and the infiltration of forgetting worries was tightly blocked. Dong Jian refilled the white wine glass with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Forget your worries?" I asked.

"A new type of drug has suddenly emerged in the past two years." At the end of the meal, I learned that Luo Qian is now a businessman specializing in entertainment venues, "a thing that was originally used as a drug, but it still couldn't escape the eyes of drug dealers." ”

"It's not strict, drugs can't be stopped, as long as they are controlled to a minimum and don't let them see the light." Zhang Dashan exhaled his cigarette heavily, and it could be seen that he had been working on this line for a long time, and he knew that the essence of drugs was actually that muddy desire, and human desire could not be completely wiped out.

"In order not to let it see the light." I raised my glass, Dong Jian and I should have the same hatred for drugs, and the anti-drug detachment of the border armed police used to be the first wall.

The crisp sound of the wine glass touching the wine table, the men swallowed the liquor again, and finally felt a little arrogant while the wine was strong.

"In order to ~ not let ~ it, it ~ see the light ~" There was a trace of resentment in Liu Lian's intermittent voice, and it in his blurry eyes was clearly not the same thing as it was in our mouth. She grabbed her glass of wine and swallowed it whole, her eyes wandering over all of us, except for a brief half-second pause for him.

"She drank too much." Dong Jian looked away, as if he was hiding something.

The night completely envelops this brightly lit city, and the hazy desire is completely different from the day, which makes people want to stop, and everyone is reluctant to let this day flow through their fingertips again.

"I'll send her back first, where are you staying today?" Dong Jian's one arm was enough to support Liu Lian, who was unsteady.

"You don't have to worry about me." In the garage, I helped them open the door.

"Then tomorrow you will go to the company first, they will tell you specific matters, I may be busy in the field, there is something to call." Dong Jian stuffed Liu Lian into the back of the car and sat in the passenger seat, and the substitute driver had already started the engine.

I waved at him, and the car drove away.

Take advantage of the night to stroll alone on the stone path of Esplanade Park, opposite Hong Kong lying quietly under the moonlight. The moonlight and waves kept rippling with strings of notes, and the sea still kept lapping on the shore, but it had a completely different rhythm from the beach in the small town of home, as if the sound of the waves was also constantly chasing people's footsteps, urging to hurry up, faster. No one stopped to admire the sound of the waves, only it was there to play solo with the moonlight.

There are occasional intimate couples sitting on the park benches, and there are also joggers wearing sports headphones and walking vigorously, those unfamiliar high-rise buildings and roads, those fresh anecdotes and events seem to have nothing to do with me. I don't remember much of this city, maybe I'll stay and fight for it, for them.

On the first day of work, everything didn't seem to be different because of my arrival, Liu Lian took me from behind the reception guide desk to my office area, a computer, and some ordinary copywriting shelves, which looked no different from ordinary company white-collar workers.

"I have already transferred the information of the new employees to your computer, you can take a look at it when you have time, you can exercise at any time in the fitness area over there, and you are currently in the second group of the field service group, which is managed by Qiu Shao." Liu Lian stood next to my office area and said casually, as if nothing had happened yesterday.

"Well, thank you." I'm curious, but I maintain the etiquette of the workplace.

"Hmm~ Also," Liu Lian suddenly leaned closer, and the sound of mosquitoes seemed to have something to say, "What happened last night?" ”

"Where do you mean from here?" I also lowered my voice.

"It's ~ after leaving the restaurant."

"Dong Jian will send you home." I wanted to laugh but didn't react on the surface, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay. Oh, it's okay. She squeezed the corners of her mouth, but seemed a little lonely, and turned away from her desk.

I sat down and turned on my computer and started to do a quick look at the copy on my desktop, and before I knew it, a clean young man in a hazel suit, narrow-framed eyes, and a colorful tie stood quietly.

"Hello." He took the initiative to stretch out his hand to me to greet me, "You're the new Zhuang Yan, right?" I am Qiu Shaoqiu, and everyone calls me Qiu Shaoqiu. ”

I hurriedly stood up and reached out to hold him, "Hello, Team Leader Qiu." ”

"I used to hear Manager Dong talk about your company, and I always said that you are very skilled. I haven't been a soldier and I don't know what you looked like when you were a soldier, but I still envy your experience as a soldier and carrying a gun. "Qiu Shao speaks Sven and dresses very foreignly, but I don't know why he can be the leader of the field team?

"You are smiling, Dong Jian's is all exaggerated, I have to ask you for advice when I first come here." In front of the politeness, I had to pretend to be polite.

"The work of the field team is to go out in the field, it's rare that everyone in the group is not there today, so don't sit in front of the computer, go home and watch slowly, now we have time to go there to learn from each other." I don't know why Qiu Shao's voice suddenly became louder, causing the colleagues around him to cast their eyes at us.

"But..."I have the impression that the first day of work should be hard work, and the emphasis is on burying my head rather than coming out, and I was interrupted before I finished speaking.

"Don't be, let's go, it's rare to move your muscles." It was not only Qiu Shao who was lying on the next frame who got up, but the colleagues in the office area almost got up as if they were greeting the boxers who entered, and the chaotic whispers almost turned into noisy cheers.

I have never been in the boxing ring, I used to only repeatedly beat my body in the barracks, the battlefield, the quagmire, the rainforest, the whole night with heavy loads, all kinds of military training is only for actual combat, the boxing ring is not my strong point, and even the rules I don't know very well. Qiu Shao comes from a professional sports school, has been focusing on fighting for more than ten years, from his tone can be heard that it has long been difficult to meet opponents, polite and polite is just his appearance, he took off the suit and finally showed the tight lines on his body, the muscles are as thick as a machine, and there is an absolute sense of crushing for ordinary people.

But fighting is a real battle after all, and not whoever has more meat can win.

I was taken to a separate locker room to change straps, knee pads, elbow pads, gloves, and the members of the second group of field teams on the side repeatedly reminded, "Wait a while to fight and hide, Qiu Shao sometimes is not light or heavy, and it is okay to admit defeat if he really can't do it, and those of us below don't want to practice too much with him, hehe." ”

The employees of Defensive Shield gathered in the fitness area, as if it was not work time, but a boxing match that was about to begin.

"It's just a matter of practicing, stop when you get to it, and stop as soon as you shout." The friendly greeting sounded full of young gunpowder.

I shouted to stop, meaning that I would admit defeat and it would be over, so I had to smile politely and nod my head frequently in understanding. Actually, I don't want to start a pointless fight, even winning or losing is meaningless for me, I just want to work well here, that's all.

The whispering in the audience finally gradually turned into a coaxing, and the blood in the young man's body was finally ignited by the fighting machine on the stage.

"Let's go." A crisp command.
