(October 15) countdown to the 76th day

An open-air café by the river, Xiao Feng and Gao Fei sat facing each other.

"Now that you've taken off your uniform, let's talk like friends today, you're not Officer Xiao, and I'm not a hacker." Gao Fei refilled Xiao Feng's tea and looked at Xiao Feng in casual clothes.

"You're already my friend, before I take off my uniform."

"Okay, then how do you evaluate her behavior in the back mountain?" Goofy asked directly.

"Unexpected, but also reasonable."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Judging from the behavior of informing Brother Niu that he may return to China secretly, reminding Brother Niu that the driverless car is a dummy, capturing three people from Brother Niu in the arsenal, and then reminding the killer that there may be more soldiers and going uphill in the back mountain, she is not going against the police, and it can even be said that she has provided great help to the police."

"It's much more than that, she saved you and me."

"In fact, she saved me twice, at the critical moment when we were besieged halfway up the mountain, the bullets ran out, and the killer was imminent, she appeared in time, shot two people, repelled one person, and directly saved me, as well as the entire task force."

"So...... You can't show mercy to someone who saved you twice? ”

"If I weren't a police officer, I'd be willing to treat her as my best sister." Xiao Feng poured a sip of tea heavily, "But ......"

"I respect your beliefs, but if what you believe in deviates greatly from reality, or even violates common sense and the way of humanity, do you still have to stick to your beliefs?"

"You must know that the law is always greater than love. Let me tell you this, if she is in crisis, I will not hesitate to hold my chest up to block the bullet for her, but at the same time, I will hold her firmly with both hands and handcuff her with my own hands. ”

"How...... How can there be such a divided person as you? Gao Fei sighed and poured a sip of tea.

"You're not like me." Xiao Feng paused and said, "When we broke up in Houshan, she asked me to give you a message, but I refused, and let her tell you in person." But I still want to tell you that sometimes, love, is just letting go. ”

"I don't, I'll hold it firmly." Goofy said firmly.

He turned his head to look at the river.

In early autumn, a cool breeze blows the surface of the river that flows slowly eastward, stirring up ripples. Occasionally, ginkgo biloba leaves on both sides of the river drift down with the wind, fall on the surface of the river, and swing down the river with the river.

He remembered the night they had watched a movie together, and when the show was over, they walked arm in arm, along the river, under the hazy two o'clock in the morning. For a moment, he looked at the river that went on and on, hoping that it would extend to an infinite distance, so that they could continue to walk arm in arm, along the river, all the way down, to the endless distance, that distance, no pursuit and pursuit, no scheme, no hatred, just him and her.

In the study room of the wooden building in Shuimu Town, Yao Xiaoyi left a letter to him, mentioning what she thought at that time and in that scene, just as he thought.

Reading that paragraph, his heart was surging, and he had already made an irrevocable decision, ignoring Yao Xiaoyi's warning at the end of the letter.

Xiao Feng silently looked at Gao Fei, who was staring at the river in a daze, and quietly refilled his tea.

"You're not a cop now, are you?" As if thinking of something, Goofy suddenly turned his head and asked.

"I was just suspended for reflection, not removed, even if I took off this skin, I was still a police officer. You're ......."

"Oh." Goofy seemed to realize his gaffe and quickly poured another sip of tea.

"Oh." Xiao Feng also suddenly understood what Gao Fei meant, and sighed, "I hope you can understand that now, the only person who can save her is herself." You must not do anything stupid, or you will not only not save her, but you will also harm yourself. ”

"Can she save herself? Did she save herself? Goofy let out a low groan of pain and buried his face deep in his palm.

"At least...... At least she couldn't hurt the innocent anymore. ”

"Hurt the innocent? Are web streamers innocent? Are web writers innocent? She didn't kill those three people in the arsenal, did she? As you guessed, she didn't kill Siyu, right? And what about Brother Niu? How many bloodsheds have been committed? How many people were killed? Why didn't you, or the Fa you represented, punish Brother Niu, but instead stare at her? Who should Yao Xiaofei's grievances be hated with? Gao Fei raised violently, with a crying tone, and threw a series of question marks to Xiao Feng.

"I ......" Xiao Feng was a little speechless for a while, and muttered, "I naturally have my dereliction of duty, I failed to catch Brother Niu as soon as possible, and failed to end this misfortune as soon as possible." I'm sorry for that. ”

"You don't have to be sorry, you know, that's not what I'm talking about." Goofy returned to his normal tone and asked, "What about the result?" What about her? What about Brother Niu? ”

"According to credible information, the last two killers were killed, both by arrows. Both she and Brother Niu mysteriously disappeared. ”

"Gone?" Goofy raised the teacup halfway and put it back on the table, "What do you mean it's gone?" ”

"Don't worry about her, maybe she's just hiding it for the time being. She had a fierce confrontation with two killers and Brother Niu in a place with a thatched hut at the top of the mountain. Judging by her performance in reversing the situation in an instant halfway up the mountain, it is believed that these three people are not enough to kill her. ”

"Where did these killers come from?" After listening to this, Goofy raised his teacup and took a sip.

"A member of a terrifying underground killer organization, the last two killers to be killed were one named Ximen Feixue, the third on the killer list, and the other was named Liu Feiyan, the seventh on the killer list. This organization has been entrenched in City C for many years, and it is a major problem for the police to get rid of it quickly, but several heavy attacks have been in vain. ”

"All these killers are coming for her? There's no reason, how could she mess with these people? ”

"This is exactly what bothered me, and the sudden appearance of the killer in Mizuki Town was completely unexpected."

"Is it possible that the killer's target is actually your task force?"

"I've thought about this possibility, but I can't find enough reason why it's not necessary for the killer organization to directly target the police."

"If the killer's target is Yao Xiaoyi, how did they know that Yao Xiaoyi was hiding in Shuimu Town? If it weren't for the accident, even we wouldn't have imagined it. Why did the task force arrive shortly after we arrived? ”

"What do you want to say?" Xiao Feng's heart trembled.

"You know what I'm trying to say."

At this point, Xiao Feng's forehead was clouded, and a sense of foreboding had come to his heart.

"This is my private phone. Maybe for a long time, you can only find me through this phone call. ”

Xiao Feng left Gao Fei a business card and quickly left the tea room.
