The sky was gray, as if it was about to rain hard, and the dusty wind on the face made it feel like a knife was blowing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe air was damp, her body was slimy, and Xia Lu was sitting in the back seat of the bus, twisting her body constantly. The two air conditioning vents above her head all pointed at her, and Ye Zifeng on the side could only fan helplessly, constantly flipping a book in his hand. The way back from the airport is always lonely, Ye Zifeng didn't read the content of the novel seriously, just to pass the time. However, doing so felt that time was slower, and Ye Zifeng decided to settle down to see what was written in this novel.

"You are so powerful, you can even see that Colonel O'Sullivan's heart grows on the right side." Xia Lu finally couldn't help but open her mouth, breaking the silence that had been maintained in the bus for nearly an hour.

――You should be able to figure it out.

Ye Zifeng thought casually in his heart, and did not respond to Xia Lu, he felt that it was a little uncivilized to interfere with the rest of the others. However, Xia Lu didn't think so, and saw that Ye Zifeng didn't respond to herself, showing a somewhat disappointed expression, but she didn't give up, and then said to Ye Zifeng.

"But I really didn't expect you to really give up this mission."

Ye Zifeng's heart twitched, but on the surface it was still as calm as water. Turning his head to look at Xia Lu with a smile on his face, Ye Zifeng shook his head helplessly, closed the thin novel in his hand, and put it in the storage bag behind the seat in front of him.

"Don't talk so loudly, it will disturb other people's rest."

"But people think it's boring." Xia Lu turned her head dissatisfiedly and pursed her mouth. Outside the window, the gray hillside that moved rapidly backward was not as vibrant as it used to be, and there was only lifeless gray beneath the gray sky. Ye Zifeng frowned slightly when he saw such a scene. He suddenly felt that Xia Lu was bored for granted, and he was bored when he saw the scenery outside.

"I'm not trying to give up on the mission, you've always misunderstood me." Ye Zifeng picked up the novel again and took the initiative to say to this Xia Lu.

"But didn't you say, 'I'm not going to do it this time?'" Xia Lu turned her head to look at Ye Zifeng again, no matter what kind of topic it was, as long as she had something to say, she would feel very happy.

"That's exactly what I said." Ye Zifeng scratched the back of his head, "But what I originally meant was 'I believe in the strength of the execution team, so I will wait in the back as a substitute'." I thought you understood what I meant. ”

"It sounds like 'we're stupid.'" Xia Lu narrowed her eyes and brought her face closer to Ye Zifeng. Ye Zifeng turned sideways slightly, looking panicked.

"No, no, no, no." Ye Zifeng waved his hand again and again.

"But yes, your thinking jumping ability is too strong, but you can't admire it." Xia Lu leaned back on the backrest, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and nodded seriously.

"Thinking Leap Ability ......, are you saying I'm thinking too much?" Ye Zifeng looked at Xia Lu on the side helplessly.

"You can say the same thing." Xia Lu nodded, but suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly waved his hand to Ye Zifeng on the side, "You, don't get me wrong, I'm not belittling you, sometimes it's good to think too much." Like, how did you find out that Colonel O'Sullivan is a mirror person? ”

"It's called being observant, not thinking too much." Ye Zifeng turned his head, and then read the novel, but he was still explaining Xia Lu's question, "First of all, a person gave me a hint, mentioning that sometimes common sense is often the opposite of reality. I didn't understand what she was saying at first, but when I saw Colonel Burke's rank card on the right chest in the conference room, I felt a little incongruous, and I didn't think about it until he hooked me around my neck and used me as a shield. ”

"Oh, that sounds amazing!" Xia Lu looked at Ye Zifeng with bright eyes.

"Actually, it's nothing, I just feel his heartbeat." Ye Zifeng said casually, but no one would be unhappy when he heard the praise of the girl next to him, but Ye Zifeng didn't show his happiness.

"Uh-huh." Xia Lu nodded, "It seems that the evaluation of you is not wrong, Alice calls you the emperor, right, can I call you?" ”

"Forget it, that nickname is boring."

"That's right." Xia Lu nodded again.

There was no topic, but Xia Lu couldn't sit still like before, she honestly leaned on the backrest, looked at the scenery outside the window, and unconsciously felt a little sleepy. It was six o'clock in the afternoon, and Ye Zifeng did not choose to recuperate quietly in the villa, but chose to return to downtown Shanghai. Xia Lu heard that Ye Zifeng was leaving, so she hurriedly packed her luggage and followed Ye Zifeng on the road.

To be honest, Ye Zifeng didn't want Xia Lu to follow, he really wanted to go back to the Hilton Hotel to have a look, even if there was a glimmer of hope, Ye Zifeng also wanted to find the strawberry girl who seemed to be a prophet, but Xia Lu was enthusiastic, and Ye Zifeng had to give up this plan. Returning to the city, Ye Zifeng had nothing to do, thinking about returning to the apartment where he lived and going to Saber to inquire about the details of the operation. It was completely nonsense to say that Ye Zifeng gave up the task before, and even being a substitute was a reason that Ye Zifeng made up to prevaricate Xia Lu, in order not to worry Xia Lu, and more importantly, not to pull Xia Lu into any dangerous things.

The bus slowly stopped at the long-distance bus stop, and the passengers who were plugged in began to get off the bus in turn, Ye Zifeng got up and took the luggage in the overhead luggage rack to get down, took Xia Lu's hand and blended into the crowd and walked slowly towards the outside of the car. Yawns rang out from time to time, and this was the time when people were sleepy, and after nearly three hours of driving, no one would not feel tired. However, Ye Zifeng was quite energetic, and after getting out of the car, he stretched his waist vigorously to put the loose bones on his body back into place, and the whole person exuded a kind of vitality.

Xia Lu followed behind Ye Zifeng slightly.

"Where are we going now?"

"Go home." Ye Zifeng replied briefly, put the backpack on his back, and prepared to take a taxi outside the long-distance bus station to return to his apartment, but the crowd not far away began to loosen, Ye Zifeng didn't care at first, but Xia Lu's eyes were completely attracted. The subsequent scream also attracted Ye Zifeng's attention, and when he turned his head in the direction where the scream came from, Ye Zifeng saw a man wearing a dark blue long-sleeved jacket, a pair of faded jeans under his body, and a baseball cap, his arm hooked around a woman's neck, and kept retreating, waving a paint-off pistol in his hand, his movements were stiff, and he was obviously very nervous.

"I guess it's the first time I've done this." Ye Zifeng whispered to Xia Lu, "Let's leave it alone." ”

"How can you not care!" Xia Lu protested in a low voice, Ye Zifeng would have been like this, but as long as Xia Lu protested, Ye Zifeng could only raise his hand and surrender.

"It's not good for us, it's something that's under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense." Ye Zifeng frowned.

"Aren't you from the Ministry of Defense? Mr. Captain. Xia Lu said loudly deliberately, and then leaned his face closer to Ye Zifeng, "Aren't you very smart, why haven't you thought about it, what is the reason why the Ministry of Defense has not publicly wanted you, it may be that you have been discovered, but it is also possible that you still think that you still have the value of use, that is to say, before the value of use disappears, you are still the captain of the Defense Department." ”

Xia Lu's speech was extremely fast, but Ye Zifeng still stopped in his ears word for word. Xia Lu's words turned into words and swirled in Ye Zifeng's mind, and it didn't take long for a clear idea to appear in Ye Zifeng's mind.

Ye Zifeng nodded towards Xia Lu.

"I'll listen to you this time."

"Thank you." Xia Lu grinned, took a step back to the side, and at the same time took the backpack behind Ye Zifeng.

"Well, Mr. kidnapper, please turn around." Ye Zifeng stepped forward and shouted to the long-sleeved man, the man turned around quickly, and the woman in front of him turned her feet off the ground.

"Yikes!" The woman let out a scream.

"Slow down, slow down, don't be nervous, there will be no danger." Ye Zifeng hurriedly stopped, but the man raised the pistol in his hand, his arm trembled and pointed the pistol at Ye Zifeng, and the corners of his mouth jumped slightly.

"Don't come here!" The man shouted, and at the same time slowly took a few steps back, "I have a gun in my hand, don't come here!" ”

It can be seen that the man is terribly scared, but this is in Ye Zifeng's arms, and Ye Zifeng is the most sure of dealing with such a prisoner.

"Don't get excited, look, I don't have a gun." Ye Zifeng opened his shirt, and after showing that he did not have a pistol on his body, he took a step forward, and the man did not stop him, probably thinking that Ye Zifeng, who did not have a gun, could not pose a threat to himself at a distance of fifteen or sixteen meters.

"Look at it, that eldest sister is innocent, you let her go first, let's talk slowly, what are your grievances to me."

"How, how is it possible! You're going to get me! The man broke down a little and brandished his pistol and stepped back.

"It's certain to catch you, but if you can release someone, the way you can be caught may be gentle. I don't think you want to cut off your hands and feet. Ye Zifeng's attitude changed and became cold and cold.

The expression on the man's face began to distort, his facial features distorted together, and the horror had turned into fear. Suddenly, he raised his arm, and Ye Zifeng didn't react at such a fast speed. With a thud, the man pulled the trigger, and a bullet shattered the shade of a lamp above his head, sending white shards to the ground. The surrounding crowd began to stir, and the passengers all ran towards the outside of the bus station in a panic, and some women even let out screams like killing pigs.

"Put down the gun in your hand, you don't want to die!" Ye Zifeng shouted, but he didn't rush forward.

"I've already done this! Death or something counts! The man roared, his spirit had collapsed, and the pistol was slowly pointed at the woman's temple, and the man showed a cruel smile. The woman gasped heavily, and instead of screaming, she closed her eyes tightly.

"Hey, don't get excited." Ye Zifeng still looked calm and calm, "Why don't you go to the airport or train station to hold you hostage and go to the passenger station?" You have a purpose, don't you? You don't want others to die here without even knowing what your purpose is. ”

Ye Zifeng pulled out the spare pistol from the holster behind his waist, and immediately pulled the trigger without saying a word, and automatically wiped the man's earlobe and flew over.

"I can tell you responsibly that I may not be so accurate with the next bullet."

The man's face became very pale, and now not only his arms trembled, but his whole body also began to tremble, but the man still didn't want to say the real reason for his hijacking, Ye Zifeng felt a little wrong.

"What the hell are you doing this for?" Ye Zifeng shouted, "For money? Or is it for something else? ”

"Don't ask!" The man trembled and said, "I won't tell you if you ask, and I won't tell you for the sake of my family." ”

- Family?

Ye Zifeng was slightly stunned, and in this small gap where Ye Zifeng was stunned, the man compared the pistol to his temple. Seeing this scene, Ye Zifeng hurriedly wanted to stop it.

"Don't!"

But it was too late, and the man pulled the trigger. Red blood gushed out from her temples at the other end, and the eyes of the woman on her chest widened, blood splattered her face. The man collapsed limply in a pool of blood, the pistol slipped out of the man's hand, and the woman sat on her knees trembling to the ground. A second later, the woman let out a heart-rending scream.

Ye Zifeng lowered his head and hung his hands at his sides.

The scene became wonderful, the man fell in a pool of blood, the woman turned her back to the man's corpse and cried bitterly, Xia Lu hurriedly stepped forward and left with the woman from the corpse, while Ye Zifeng bowed his head and was silent, and the pistol was withdrawn into the holster behind his waist.

"Are you alright?" Xia Lu ran over and looked at Ye Zifeng in a daze with some concern. The guards at the passenger terminal ran over and passed the two men and set up a cordon around the man's body. It is estimated that the media will notice this matter later, and this may become a topic of conversation after dinner tonight. Ye Zifeng didn't want to be so eye-catching, even if he didn't reveal his real name and mentioned it slightly.

"I'm fine." Ye Zifeng shook his head, "There is something strange about this matter, let's leave here first." ”

The crowd gradually gathered, and Ye Zifeng and Xia Lu walked out of the passenger station against the flow of people. Before you know it, the sky began to clear, the dark clouds were torn apart, and the afternoon sun shone down through the cracks, and the orange-yellow sunlight turned all the cuts on the ground into orange-yellow. It looks like tomorrow will be a good day, but the weather forecast app on your phone says that tomorrow will be the biggest rainstorm of the month. This year's No. 7 typhoon will make landfall on the coast at 11:56 tonight, when the wind will blow nearly 11 in the downtown area of Shanghai, and the heavy rain will paralyze traffic.

Ye Zifeng stopped a taxi on the side of the road, put his luggage in the trunk, and sat in the back seat of the taxi with Xia Lu. After telling the driver the destination, the two began to talk aimlessly.

The air conditioner in the car was turned on very much, and the whining cool breeze blew from the air outlet to the faces of the two people, and the previous heat disappeared without a trace.

"Then again, what exactly do you think is wrong? The prisoner committed suicide. Xia Lu asked.

"What he said to me was very abnormal, and I asked him about the purpose of the murder, but he refused to say." Ye Zifeng thought for a while and replied, "And what I care about the most is the last sentence he said to me." ”

"What?"

"He said, 'I'm not going to tell you for my family'."

"For the sake of the family?"

Xia Lu frowned slightly. The melodious piano music was playing on the radio, and the driver enjoyed tapping his fingers on the steering wheel and the beat. However, the piano music ended here, and the abrupt end of the music made the driver frown.

"Now for a newsletter." The male host's voice came out of the stereo, and the driver muttered something quietly, reaching out to turn off the radio.

"Master, wait a minute." Ye Zifeng hurriedly stopped, and the driver was stunned for a moment before withdrawing his hand and continuing to hold the steering wheel.

"Just ten minutes ago, there was a vicious gun hijacking incident at the Chengdong Bus Station, and it is understood that the kidnapper is a middle-aged man about 1.8 meters tall and his identity is unknown. The kidnapper has been shot dead by an unnamed Defence officer, who has been informed by the police that the Defence Officer left immediately after killing the robber. ”

Ye Zifeng's eyes widened after hearing this, and he was a little speechless.

"You're on the radio." Xia Lu gently patted Ye Zifeng's shoulder, "Disillusioned, let's mourn and change." ”

"Hey~" Ye Zifeng let out a long sigh and shook his head, "It's not a big deal." ”

"But there's something strange about this broadcast." Xia Lu tilted her head, but the piano music was played again on the radio, and the driver smiled and nodded slightly.

"Sort of, indeed." The expression on Ye Zifeng's face tended to be serious, and then he pinched his chin and bowed his head and said, "He didn't mention the victim and the person who shot it wasn't me." ”

"But you did shoot, maybe the passers-by around you saw it wrong." Xia Lu put forward a conjecture.

"I can't rule it out, but it should be more obvious that he himself is holding a gun to the temple." Ye Zifeng said, "It seems that we are indeed in trouble." ”

"Oops, just get used to it." Xia Lu waved her hand at Ye Zifeng, and at the same time covered her mouth and chuckled.

"You're embarrassed to say it." Ye Zifeng said angrily, and lightly touched Xia Lu's forehead with a hand knife, "It's obvious that this time I got into trouble." ”
