Chapter 48: The Rainstorm

Zhou Yi is very busy these days, busy sorting out photos for the magazine.

The photos taken a long time ago have been adopted, and the effect is very good, the intersection of the modern and the past reflects the different scenery of Jiangcheng, coupled with the unique customs and special snacks of the previous year, so that the sales of that issue of the magazine are comparable to a quarter.

This made the editor-in-chief of the magazine very happy, and made an appointment with Zhou Yi for a long time, hoping that Zhou Yi could provide more style photos.

Therefore, Zhou Yi runs outside almost three or four days a week, and sometimes Qin Fei wants to have a meal with him or something, and he has to make an appointment in advance.

Today, Jiangcheng is about to usher in a rare heavy rainstorm, the gloomy dark clouds are pressed low, and the dim tones of the street lamps and the moving headlights show a different color in the city.

Zhou Yi took a tripod and stood on an overpass, waiting for the moment when the rainstorm came.

Zhou Yi set up a tripod, installed the equipment to take the scene, and stood beside the camera in a daze, he was used to being alone, used to a person looking at the scenery outside in the viewfinder, as if only at this time he felt that the world was beautiful and quiet.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, Zhou Yi hurriedly held on to the tripod, and after he held it steady, the wind suddenly stopped again, the gust of wind came quickly, went fast, and then a dazzling lightning pierced the gloomy sky, the sound was loud and harsh, and the hearts of the people were shaken, and the raindrops of beans "crackled" and smashed down.

In an instant, the rain poured down without any transition.

Zhou Yi stood behind the camera and took pictures of the rainy scenes, connected with the lightning in the sky, the picture was shocking and depressing, the moment it was shining, it was like the world was glowing, and when it was darkened, it seemed that the whole world was shrouded in an indescribable sadness.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and in the end, the front of the camera was blurry Zhou Yicai put away the equipment, put it in his bag, tightened the raincoat on his body, and slowly got off the overpass in the rain.

There is no business in the bubble tea shop today, Xiao Ran and Fei Fei sat behind the bar and chatted looking at the heavy rain outside, Zhou Yi pushed the door and walked in.

"Brother Zhou, you're soaking wet, hurry up and go in and change!" Fei Fei saw that Zhou Yi was dripping with water, so she quickly stood up and said, and poured him a cup of hot coffee, "It's raining so hard, you still go out to take pictures?" ”

"It's okay!" Zhou Yi took off the raincoat on his body and handed it to Xiao Ran to hang in the bathroom, turned around and took a towel to wipe his hair, the shirt on his body had been soaked by the rain leaking along the edge of his hat.

Xiao Ran also stood up, "Brother Zhou, can you still take photos in such a heavy rain?" Don't get into the water with your camera! ”

Zhou Yi smiled, "With a waterproof cover!" I'll show you the scenery that you can't usually see. ”

Fei Fei wiped the water on the outside of the camera bag, then opened it, took out the camera, and leaned on the bar with Xiao Ran to watch.

Zhou Yi went to the back to change his clothes, and walked out after putting his wet clothes on the chair.

"How?" Zhou Yi asked.

"It's so beautiful, I don't usually pay attention to it!" Fei Fei sighed.

"This lightning looks like a tree, I haven't seen it before, it turns out that lightning looks like this!" Xiao Ran said.

Xiao Ran has been a little absent-minded recently, Zhou Yi didn't ask much, the girl has a lot of thoughts, and with Fei Fei here, Zhou Yi won't pay too much attention to Xiao Ran's other things.

It was dark outside, it was raining heavily, and even the building opposite couldn't be seen clearly, the lightning and thunder that came from time to time, and the warm lights made the small bubble tea shop look extraordinarily quiet in this rainstorm, Zhou Yi sat on the chair, looking out the window, I don't know how Qin Fei has been busy lately?

"Fei Fei!" Zhou Yi suddenly shouted, "Mix some mint and green orange tea, and then brew some caramel coffee, Xiao Ran will decorate today's egg tart, and I'll send it to the other side later!" ”

"Good drops!" Fei Fei agreed, returned the camera to Zhou Yi, and went to the operating table with Xiao Ran to get busy.

"You can go home early when the rain is lighter, no one will come today anyway." Zhou Yi said.

"It's okay to stay here!" Fei Fei said without raising her head.

"What about Xiao Ran?" Zhou Yi asked.

"I ...... It's okay, I'm here to accompany Fei Fei. Xiao Ran hesitated and replied.

Zhou Yi didn't want to say any more, Xiao Ran's tone was obvious, maybe there was something at home that didn't want to go back, Fei Fei must know that they would stay if they wanted to, anyway, it was raining so heavily outside, and it was not very convenient to go home now.

Carrying the finished things, Zhou Yi went to the opposite side with an umbrella.

The office of the third team was pale and bright by the incandescent lights, and the darkness outside was a little uncomfortable.

Zhou Yi met Daping at the door, "Sister Daping!" Zhou Yi shouted.

"Yikes! Zhou Yi! It's raining so hard? Give me something, you can just put your umbrella at the door. Daping took a few bags from Zhou Yi's hand, waited for Zhou Yi to collect the umbrella, and followed him into the office.

"Huh? Why aren't people here today? Just you and Sister Huahua and Angkor? What about my brother? Zhou Yi looked at the empty office and asked in surprise.

"They're busy! Come in and sit down for a while, I haven't seen you in days. ”

Zhou Yi watched Daping put the mint and mandarin oranges in the refrigerator, and then took the coffee to Hua Li and Wu Qiang.

"It's still Zhou Yi intimate!" Wu Qiang took a sip of coffee, "I'm just sleepy here!" The coffee came so timely! ”

"And the mint and green mandarin are in the refrigerator, and they are delicious when they are iced!" Zhou Yi replied, watching Wu Qiang operate the computer, there were several small red dots moving on a screen.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was curious, Wu Qiang pointed to one of the small red dots and said, "This is your brother, our boss!" ”

"Wow! It looks so advanced! Zhou Yi exclaimed curiously, his eyes widened.

"GPS is the only one! What do you think? You Angkor cool it! Wu Qiang said with a sigh.

"Zhou Yi, don't listen to his nagging, the nagging is endless, if you catch someone, you will say, I can't wait for the whole world to know." Hua Li said on the side.

Zhou Yi smiled and walked to the Huali table and sat down.

"It's raining so hard today! Look at the pants are wet! Hua Li asked as she drank coffee and ate snacks.

"There is no one today, it will be a waste if you don't sell it, thinking that you are so busy every day, I will send you some!" Zhou Yi replied while patting his half-wet trouser leg.

"Cutie!" Hua Li pinched Zhou Yi's cheek affectionately, "It's so sweet!" ”

"It's raining so hard, my brother and they are still on a mission?"

"It's not a mission, it's just some investigation, and I'll be back later!"

As he was talking, Qin Fei and Lu Ming walked in talking together, carrying the dripping raincoat in their hands, and seeing that Zhou Yi was here, the two stopped talking at the same time.

"Zhou Yi is here?" Lu Ming greeted with a smile, took a cup of coffee and took a sip, "Comfortable!" ”

Qin Fei looked at Zhou Yi and smiled, Zhou Yi also smiled and watched him hang the raincoat next to him and then walked over, Qin Fei rubbed Zhou Yi's head with his hand, "It's raining so hard, come here?" ”

"I'll give you some pick-me-ups, it's too stuffy, and no one in the store comes anyway." Zhou Yi replied with a smile, watching Qin Fei take a towel and sit on a chair to wipe his hair.

Qin Fei put down the towel, picked up the coffee handed over by Zhou Yi and took a sip.

"Cool, isn't it?" Zhou Yi asked, "If you want to drink hot, I'll cook some more." ”

"Exactly!" Qin Fei put down the cup, "What have you been busy with lately?" I haven't seen you in days! ”

"Take photos for the magazine, they signed a long-term contract with me, hehe......" Zhou Yi touched his nose and said.

"That's a good thing! What kind of theme do you want? ”

"There is no limit, if you need a specific theme, they will tell me in advance, now it's up to me to shoot ......"

"Boss!" As soon as he entered the door, Daqing shouted, interrupting Zhou Yi and Qin Fei's small talk.

"I'm back! What do you think? Qin Fei asked.

"My first instinct is him, and he can basically match!" Daqing took off his raincoat, picked up the coffee on the table and took a big sip first.

"That, brother! Get busy, I'll go back! Zhou Yi stood up and said when he saw that they had something.

"Okay, wait for me at night, I'll send you back!" Qin Fei said, didn't leave Zhou Yi.

After saying hello to Daqing, Zhou Yi went back to the bubble tea shop with an umbrella.

"We have visited a lot of their former neighbors and relatives these days, and he not only knows acupuncture, but also has a lot of regular customers! He sometimes helps out in the clinic, doesn't he usually know what he does? It took me several days to find out that he was going to fight underground black boxing! Daqing said.

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this.

"We've managed to find his father's current home, and guess what? His stepmother accidentally said something and his father didn't stop him. Daqing continued, "She said that Ding Ning was very scary when he was a child, and he almost didn't strangle his brother to death at a young age! He was only five years old. ”

"So ruthless!?" Flowey asked with a grin.

"That's not all, his stepmother said that she didn't want to throw him to his grandfather at the beginning, it was because one night, Ding Ning stood in their room with his family's boning knife, and almost didn't cut off his father's grandchildren! Since then, the family has been very afraid of him, and they dare not be alone with him, saying that they are afraid when they see the child's eyes! ”

"Where's Zhou Quan?" Qin Fei asked Daping.

"He's not back yet, but it should be soon!" Da Ping glanced at the time and replied.

"In this way, Daqing, don't relax that kid first, arrange for someone to keep an eye on it, wait for Zhou Quan to come back and discuss it, if you can be sure, arrest someone immediately!" Qin Fei said, and he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.

"Yes!" Daqing happily agreed.

Although he was very happy in his heart, the serial murder case finally had some eyebrows, but Qin Fei's heart couldn't help but pick it up, I don't know why, the uneasiness lingered in his chest all the time, and he always felt that it was a little too early to be happy, or it was too easy!

However, no matter what the source of this uneasiness in his heart was, as long as it had nothing to do with Zhou Yi, Qin Fei's heart was still relieved.

Zhou Quan and Shen Bing came back very late, and Qin Fei had already left after work.

Zhou Quan took the information of Ding Ning given by Daqing and went back to Qin Fei's house, Qin Fei was not there, in the room, Zhou Quan's suitcase that had been packed was placed on the ground, he took a look, he was going to leave Jiangcheng tomorrow and go back to Kyoto, and his secondment period had arrived.

didn't cook rice, Zhou Quan just ate a piece of bread and sat on the sofa waiting for Qin Fei.

The rain outside had been falling, and there was no sign of stopping, the thunder was still rumbling, and lightning was occasionally streaked across the dark night sky, illuminating the room.
