"Oh?" Ai Zhenzi's face changed significantly, "How did you think of going to Huangbai City?" ”

"Ding Ying didn't show up for a week, and I miss her very much."

Ding Ying looked at me with a smile on her face.

Ai Sadako smiled, "Yes, it's been a week, and I must be very worried." I know you're concerned, but I didn't expect you to take a leave of absence for this matter. However, I won't be upset about it, that means you're infatuated. I like infatuated people. I just want you to know that I'm not going to quit the rules of the game. I'll make you change your mind. ”

"I'm sorry, I don't understand you." I say.

"I'm sure you understand."

A morning passed in the blink of an eye. I can't find the words to describe how happy Ding Ying was this morning. As if she hadn't been affected in any way, Ai Sadako did her studies and talked about her days as usual, but I knew that she was very uncomfortable.

Just like Zhu Yi felt very uncomfortable at this time.

After lunch, I told Chu Huoyu to run the bookstore, and Cao Shuigen to record every call from the platform, and then took the bus with Ding Ying to the provincial long-distance bus station.

It is a full hour's drive from the provincial capital to Beikeng. Perhaps Beikeng is close to the provincial capital, and it is better than Hua'an in terms of urban construction and sanitation, including the degree of greening. It's also better than Cork City.

When we arrived at the Beikeng bus station, we stopped a taxi, and the taxi took us directly to the Beikeng Detention Center.

The detention center was built in the western suburbs of Beikeng. From the provincial road, we turned onto a small road, and after a few minutes of driving, we arrived at our destination.

We walked into the detention center together.

We were greeted by a policewoman. We thought that the attitude of the policewoman would be better, but we didn't expect that this policewoman was like being in menopause and had no patience at all.

Although the policewoman's attitude is arrogant, the conversation with her makes it clear that during this period, it is impossible to meet Ding Ying's father even if there is a big relationship. This is a hard and fast rule. In other words, no one can meet with the offender until the prosecutor's indictment takes effect.

We felt very embarrassed. I tentatively tried to find out my intentions with the policewoman, and the policewoman rolled her eyes at me, without saying a word, and we also understood that if we wanted to meet Ding Ying's father, the sun would not come out of the west.

We had no choice but to leave the detention center.

"What should I do again? They didn't pay any attention to us. Even the policewoman is so vicious, my father will definitely suffer. Ding Ying's face was melancholy. Along the way, Ding Ying was imagining the scene of meeting her father.

"Your father's sin is inevitable. You have to be mentally prepared for this. No one who has been put into the detention center is exempt from sin. Even more guilty was going to jail. That's the hardest part. I reminded Ding Ying.

And so it is. If prisons are as warm as home, will the state still have a punishing effect on criminals when setting up prisons?

"Of course I have that kind of mental preparation. But when I thought that my father would be tortured, I couldn't accept it. What to do again? Zheng Qihang, what do you say you should do again? Ding Ying asked eagerly.

We walked on the trail that turned in from the provincial road. The trail is lined with camphor trees. I noticed that each camphor tree was full of pale yellow flowers the size of a grain of rice.

The camphor tree also blooms, which is something I don't pay attention to.

Is it because of the nature of the work, or is there a problem with our methods and methods? I asked myself in my heart.

It occurred to me that there was definitely something wrong with our approach. We were too abrupt. Or, we're in too much of a hurry.

Think about it, who are you? It's not your sister or your sister, how can the other party accept it if you ask the other party to take care of a criminal so abruptly?

If it were you, you'd roll your eyes too.

Tender, we are definitely too tender!

I then thought: If you don't have a relationship and don't know each other, you can only break the bank. I had to break the bank. Money is the most powerful way to bring people together. As the old saying goes: Money can make ghosts grind.

"I know how to do it." I said to Ding Ying.

"How?" Ding Ying was skeptical.

"Just look at it." I say.

I took Ding Ying's hand and returned to the detention center.

It's still the policewoman, still looking at us with white eyes.

I glanced around, and there was no one else around. Of course, there are no probes either. Back then, I didn't know what a probe was. So I quickly pulled two hundred dollars out of my pocket, placed them directly on the counter in front of the policewoman, and covered them with a magazine on the counter.

"This is a little bit of my heart, please accept it." I say.

"What do you mean?" The policewoman looked at me.

"It's not interesting, I just want you to make an appointment with your director, I want to invite the police uncles in the station to dinner."

"That's embarrassing." The policewoman's attitude immediately changed, and although she said so, her eyes had betrayed her.

I pushed the book forward, "It's just a little bit of thought." ”

"In that case, then I'll take it. Little brother, I will call our director immediately, and I will say that you are my relative. ”

"Thank you. Thank you so much. ”

Ding Ying and I glanced at each other. Ding Ying finally showed a relieved smile on her face.

The policewoman called her chief in front of me. On the phone, the policewoman booked all the restaurants for me to eat at night.

Half past five in the evening. Beikeng Hotel.

Before entering the hotel, I folded into a cigarette shop and bought a high-end cigarette. I asked the person who bought the cigarette for a newspaper, wrapped it, grabbed it in my hand, and then walked into the hotel.

With a cigarette in his hand, it is impossible not to think of the days when he mixed with Brother Jun in Hua'an No. 4 Middle School, and it is impossible not to think of the proprietress at the school gate who would sell even a cigarette to students.

Ding Ying touched my hand gently, "I said, why are you so familiar with doing these things?" ”

"Familiar? Where am I acquainted? I came up with the lesson that the policewoman had just taught us. The mouth of the eater is soft, and the hand of the man is soft. I said.

"I didn't think of it."

The policewoman ordered us a box called Beikeng Scenery. A total of eight people came to the detention center, including the director and the policewoman. Plus Ding Ying and I happened to be at the same table.

I ordered all the hotel specialties.

I know it very well in my heart. None of these people believed us as relatives of the policewoman, but none of them would debunk the lie. All I need is they don't puncture.

I also know that the most critical person is the director. However, if the relationship between the director's subordinates is not good, Ding Ying's father will still suffer. Everybody knows that. The cigarette was prepared for the director's men.

It's still a fake excuse, or a look like why are you so polite, and the cigarettes that came to their arms were naturally put into their pockets.

This meal lasted two hours. The waiter drank all four bottles of liquor and a case of beer.

Everybody drank too much.

And that's exactly what I'm trying to achieve. So much so that at the end of the show, everyone called me a brother.

Although I drank too much, and although I had reached the limit of drinking, I did not forget to call the director aside and give him five hundred yuan in cash.

The director accepted it without saying a word.

After he accepted it, he praised me vigorously for being a brother and praised me for being a brother enough, and then he said that Principal Ding's affairs would be handed over to him, and he promised that he would not let Principal Ding suffer a little grievance.

……

Leaving these bandit-like people, I let out a long sigh of relief.

At this time, we walked on the widest and most prosperous street in Beikeng. To this day, I still remember that street was called Beijing Street. It's not that this street is so distinctive, it's just that the name Beijing Street is too special.

Ding Ying helped me along the way.

I know I really drank too much. I haven't drunk so much all this all this time.

The streets of Beijing are brightly lit. Vehicles come and go. There are three lanes on the left and right. Horizontally, I estimate that it is more than twenty meters. The street is almost as tall as the streets of a provincial town.

Maybe it was because I drank too much, or maybe I wanted to show Ding Ying something too much, so I dragged Ding Ying into a clothing store. I chose the most expensive dress in the store for Ding Ying to try on.

"I've never worn a skirt when I'm so big, and you're going to buy me a dress?" Ding Ying stared at me with wide eyes.

"Yes," I said, "I want to see your dress because you haven't worn it." I thought, it must be something else. ”

I made a reverie.

"I don't." Ding Ying categorically vetoed.

"Just give me a face, just drink so much wine at me, you can also give face." I shook my body deliberately.

The waiter looked at us and smiled. "Try it, why don't you try it when your boyfriend buys you a dress?" One of them strikes while the iron is hot.

"The main thing is that I didn't like to wear skirts since I was a child." Ding Ying was very satisfied with the waiter's definition of our relationship.

"Habits can be changed." The waiter helped me talk.

No, I'm mistaken, she's actually talking for herself.

"One person has to be willing to change for another." I say.

"What if I don't?"

I feel like we're back to the time of bickering.

"You just wronged yourself. Take it. "I handed the skirt over.

"If you want me to try it on, you have to owe me a favor."

"As long as you're willing to try it on, you can owe ten favors."

"I'm afraid I'll get you." Ding Ying was still hesitant.

"Don't hesitate, wear it and try it, if you don't think it's okay, don't buy it, okay?" I'm in a bit of a hurry.

Ding Ying took the skirt and entered the fitting room.

A few minutes later, Ding Ying walked out of the fitting room.

I looked at Ding Ying without blinking. Is this really Ding Ying? I couldn't believe it was Ding Ying. That figure, that flushed face, that shy look, suddenly made my heart surge.

For two years, I have never seen Ding Ying's delicate beauty. This is too far from the impression that Ding Ying usually gives us.

"Is it okay?" Ding Ying took the hem of her skirt and turned around.

I was really drunk. The wine didn't get me drunk, Ding Ying's action made me drunk.

Ding Ying in a skirt is not only shy and beautiful, but also a kind of sexual temptation. The moment she pulled the hem of her skirt and turned it was simply intoxicating to me.

"How can it be? This dress is simply made for you. Waiter, pay. "There's no need to hesitate anymore, just pay for it.

"Do you really want to buy it? It's too expensive. ”

"Whatever, if you feel like this, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy it." I took out three hundred dollars and handed it to the waiter. The waiter looked for me twenty.

Let's do the math so simply, 280 yuan a dress in that year was equivalent to a month's salary for many people. Ding Ying was skeptical about buying this dress.
