Chapter 96: 4-15 The Quiet Tombstone (Gaiden)
The whistle came from a distance, and the captain of the criminal police walked into his office with triumphant steps. When he saw that his seat was occupied by a black cat, a fiery heart was suddenly cold.
Turning his head, there was a forensic doctor sitting on the couch, and a tall stack of comic books.
Hehe smiled, Da Xuan leaned over, "Cocoa......"
The medical examiner pushed him away in disgust, "Not available. She said, "I'll have to return it to Wanli after reading this." ”
Da Xuan, who was hit by a small blow, casually flipped through the stacks of comic books, and his blood pressure suddenly increased by three levels.
"Xun Keran!" Da Xuan pointed to a page of the comic, "What is this?" ”
"Man." The medical examiner replied succinctly.
"And what is this!?"
"Man, TOO."
"Then why hug each other!!" Da Xuan roared.
"Well, I'm researching it, it seems like we're in love." The forensic doctor digs out his ears and is so noisy.
……………… After being patient and patient, Da Xuan's blood pressure still didn't come down, "Confiscation!" Pornographic Literature!! Confiscate them all!! ”
The forensic doctor didn't raise his eyelids, "Susu." ”
Hearing the owner's call, the black cat Susu, who was curled up in the leather chair, shook his ears, stood up and stretched a big cat waist, and then raised his paws.
Zila............ Six long cat scratches appeared from top to bottom on the back of the leather chair.
(This feels really good, meow~)
Da Xuan was dumbfounded, turned his head and roared outside the office door: "Xu Wanli! ”
"Eh, it's coming, what's wrong...... Ah, how can you read it here, I said it last time, the captain is very earthy, and he can't accept such a loving comic...... Uh, Captain, are you there......"
Da Xuan felt that his blood pressure had risen another level, "Take away all your damn pornographic books, and dare to give them to Ke...... Dare to lend it to anyone and write a review for Lao Tzu! ”
Wanli smiled softly, "Captain, do you need real chrysanthemum blood pressure tablets?" ”
Ke Ke smiled teasingly, "His blood pressure tablets are not enough, I think it is more effective to go down and put some blood directly." ”
Da Xuan squinted his eyes, and Coco raised his left eyebrow with a defiant expression. As if she could understand the owner's expression, Su Su lightly jumped onto the big desk, leaving three more scratches on the white report paper.
"Boss!" Bai Ling suddenly made a face at the door, "Your parking space is occupied!" I just saw a brand new SUV parked in your parking space! Brand new! Handsome! ”
Xiaobai's expected thunderous scene did not appear, Da Xuan stood up leisurely, jingled twice, and a new set of keys appeared in his hand.
"Boss...... You bought it? That cheetah was your new one?! Bai Ling's voice involuntarily became louder.
Da Xuan shook the car keys, and the pride was self-evident.
The curious Coco took the cat from the table in her arms, "What is an SUV?" A car model? ”
"A very handsome model!" Bai Ling said excitedly.
"182 hp, 255 torque, 170 km/h," Da Xuan shook the key in his hand slightly, "full-time all-wheel drive system ......"
"Four wheels?" Coco looked at the excited two men with a puzzled expression, "What's the difference between that and other cars?" Isn't it all wheels rolling and rolling? ”
Da Xuan looked at her with a hopeless expression, "Coco, it's all four wheels, but it feels completely incomparable to drive, especially when speeding." ”
Coco raised her eyebrows slightly, "You haven't eaten enough of the speeding ticket, Captain?" ”
――――――――――――――
Da Xuan slapped his hands on the steering wheel, "Say, where to go!" I'll let you learn the power of SUVs......"
"Go to the cemetery." Coco said without raising her eyelids.
“……………… What do you do at the cemetery? On this sunny day, where to go to play? ”
"Huh? I thought you'd want to accompany me to visit my sister. If you don't want to go, forget it......"
"Go! Of course go! "Da Xuan suddenly came to his senses.
――――――――――――
The sunlit cemetery exudes a completely different atmosphere of the night, and Da Xuan follows Coco through the cold stone monuments.
Coco put the pale yellow chrysanthemum on the stele, and then stood on the front of the stele, and the top of the stele was inlaid with the black and white head of Xunyun.
"That...... This is our captain, called, called Zhou Daxuan. ”
"Coco, don't you fight with your tongue, I'm nervous when I hear it."
Xun Keran turned his head to look at him, and burst out with a distorted expression, "Go while playing." ”
Da Xuan grinned, ignoring the vicious gaze of the people next to him, and squatted down in front of the stone stele, "Comrade Xun Yunjie, I, Zhou Da Xuan, seriously guarantee the safety of your sister's life, and ensure that you can be there with the rumors, and you can beat and scold ......" said and inserted the cigarette in his hand into the incense burner in front of the stone stele. "Conscientiously buy breakfast in the morning and press the quilt in the evening...... Ahh I'm serious here, don't you kick me? ”
Coco pouted, silent.
In early autumn, the half-yellow leaves make a circle and float in front of the stone monument.
After chattering a few words, Da Xuan stood up and looked at Coco, whose face was slightly red, and smiled lightly, "I'll buy some incense to light it, you can wait for me." With that, he turned and left, leaving Coco alone to face the familiar stone tablet.
Rustle......
Coco turned her head and found the woman standing quietly behind her, still smiling indifferently.
It was the early morning of the world when there were only two people......
"Mu Xue!" Coco blurted out, "You ......"
"Coco kid, I just saw you entering the cemetery door in my room, don't you come here okay?" Mu Xue was wearing a long windbreaker, the corners of her cotton clothes were blown up by the cold wind, her shoulder-length hair was much longer when she met last time, and her face still had a faint smile, and for some reason she looked a little pale in the sun. "The one who left just now was your ......?"
Coco's slightly calmer face suddenly became hot again.
Mu Xue nodded in understanding, and her usual gentle smile became a little lonely, "It's so happy, like I promised my sister." ”
Coco looked at her hesitantly, "What about you?" If I'm not mistaken, the unknown lawyer who made a very big fight against the gang a few days ago, and announced the murder list of the gang boss in court, is it? ”
Mu Xue turned her gaze back from a distance, "Are you talking to me?" ”
"I'm worried about your safety, if your plan is like this, then you should think about the way back, whether someone will be unfavorable to you."
"It's too much...... Mu Xue shook her head, "In order to kill me with one blow, I have published all the account books of all the gang's large-scale bribery officials, and there are countless people who want to drag me to hell with me, so what?" I did it......"
"Don't act as if you don't have anything else to do!" Coco suddenly raised her voice, and she began to understand where the anger hidden in her heart came from, "Don't say it as if it's all over, you forgot you promised?" Promise to bring the person you love here to meet your dad together? Don't make it look like you don't have any meaning in life anymore, you still have a lot of things to do, right? ”
For the first time, Mu Xue's smile disappeared, and she was stunned and Coco looked at each other, for a long time, only the sound of people cleaning the cemetery in the distance, and the sound of brushing the floor.
Coco pointed to the cigarette in the incense burner, "Did you tell me not to run away, I faced it, and what about yourself?" But you plan to give up just like that? ”
Mu Xue lowered her gaze with her fingers, the cold wind blew her long hair, except for exhaustion, the face that had been smiling faintly was expressionless.
As if she suddenly remembered something, Coco suddenly fumbled in her pocket, Mu Xue raised her head, and saw her smiling and stretching out her hand, there was a treasure bead.
――――――――――――――――――――
"You're really slow." Coco looked at the big silk who walked in with a smile, and his face bulged out, it was a pudding-flavored treasure bead.
"Who's that woman?" Da Xuan lit up the incense burner in his hand, "Eat less sugar, tooth decay." ”
Coco looked at Mu Xue's distant back and didn't make a sound.
The cold wind blew up one fallen leaf after another on the ground, and the fallen leaves were in circles in place, unwilling to leave.
After worshipping the tombstone in front of him, Da Xuan grabbed the hands of the people next to him, "Let's go, take you to meet my brother." ”
"Brother?"
Passing through rows and rows of cold stone monuments, and stepping over the ending of someone else's story, Da Xuan took Coco by the hand and stopped in front of an enlarged joint burial tombstone.
"Your brother...... A? ”
There are three names engraved on the stone tablet, and at a glance you know that it is a small family of three.
"This is my brother, who enlisted in the army with me in 97, and after I retired, I reported to the criminal police, and he applied to be an anti-narcotics policeman, and four years ago in the next city there was a huge drug trafficking case that used street children, do you know?"
Coco shook her head, but from Da Xuan's tone, she sensed a hint of sadness.
"That case was the beginning of his life, because he was a new face to the drug cartel in the city next door, so after the last undercover agent lost contact, he was urgently sent to be an undercover agent." Speaking of this, Da Xuan suddenly paused, and sat on the ground with his back against the stone fence next to him, "Everything happened too quickly and chaotic in those days, and I still have a headache when I think about it now, and it really hurts to jump and jump...... We are a lifelong friendship, but the investigation of the case has been busy for a long time and has not been in touch, that night he suddenly called, saying that he can only trust me now, his undercover identity is suspected, and there are people in the police who are drug dealers, he only begged me for one thing, let me protect his wife and three-year-old son, I asked him to withdraw, he refused, he said that he saw a small gang controlled by drug dealers, 12 children, the oldest is only 15 years old, without transporting drugs, he was starved by drug dealers and beaten and pumped, and was arrested by the police, Before the interrogation was clear, he was killed by drug dealers in the police, and for the sake of these twelve children, he can't withdraw now. I knew he was walking a tightrope, my phone had a recording function, I hung up the phone and I went straight to the director, recorded the call to him, and then took someone directly to his house, but I was a step late, and his wife and son were not at home......"
Coco stood in front of the stone monument and listened quietly to the hoarse voice of the big man.
"Four days later, he suddenly appeared in the General Bureau, holding the evidence of the entire drug trafficking network in his hand, and he held it in his hand, and at that time there were three people in the office, me, and the director, and he said to the director, I have the information in my hand that can kill the entire network, but I have a message in my mobile phone that I received in the morning, if I dare to hand this thing over to you, my wife and my three-year-old son will have no hope......"
Coco frowned, "What about the 12 children?" Can't you be a witness to prove the behavior of a drug dealer? ”
Da Zhen shook his head. "If you can't catch the drug dealers in the police team, it's not certain whether those children will survive until the day they go to court, and even if they do, those children are more or less involved in drugs, they have no parents, and their innocence also affects the credibility of the testimony. …… The director said that I don't ask you to give it to me, because I can't guarantee the safety of your wife and son until now, and I'm useless as the director, you can decide for yourself. ”
"He gave?" Coco asked, her eyes wide.
Da Xuan didn't make a sound, took out a cigarette from his pocket and wanted to light it, a gust of wind blew, the lighter went out, and when he lit the fire again, his hand suddenly trembled, and the lighter fell to the ground.
Coco walked over, stood upwind of him, crouched down to pick up the lighter, and then blocked the wind for him with both hands, and the smoke finally lit brightly and darkly.
Spuffing out a puff of cigarette fiercely, Da Xuan nodded, "His hands were shaking when he gave out the information, and he said, for the sake of the twelve children...... I can't bear to look at it. The next day, the full-scale arrest began, the first to arrest the drug dealers in the police team, we wanted to cut off their contact, in order to catch those bastards who lost the black police tip-off, the third day ......"
Coco felt her heart tighten suddenly.
Da Xuan took another puff of cigarette, "The person was thrown directly at the door of the police station, and then the car that threw the corpse drove away like crazy, the entire gate of the main bureau was under martial law for a whole day, no one dared to walk over, I stopped him from going out, he said, get out of the way, otherwise our friendship will end here...... One big and one small, two people, the doll is only three years old...... There's nothing on the body, there's a hole in the head, that's it...... was thrown at the door of the city bureau, on the day they got married, I also called her a sister-in-law, when the doll made a full moon wine, I sang with him while drinking, and later the brothers of the police force were sent back together, and the next day they were scolded by the director together...... "Da Xuan said a few words and took a puff of cigarettes, and Coco suddenly couldn't see his expression clearly in the misty smoke.
It's understandable to remember his brother, but in Coco's heart, what should the woman on the tombstone and the three-year-old child be in their last mood? At the last moment when the muzzle of the gun was pointed at the head, would he still love his husband and father as much as he wished?
"He kept watch all night in front of the coffins of one big and one small in the mourning hall, and did not let anyone accompany him, I sat at the door and watched him all night, and the director ordered several brothers to have someone to watch him all the time, but after his wife and son were buried here, he was like regaining his strength, full of spirit to face the case of drug dealers, and it took a whole month and a half to put the whole pot of this drug dealer network that had been stored for more than ten years, and the bureau was happy up and down, and even the provincial department applied to the top for a big reward, I was tired, and he looked quite normal, not the slightest bit decadent, so I went back and rested for the night......"
Coco opened her mouth to say something, but hesitated, but still didn't say it.
"When I received the call in the morning, the chief told me to come to the cemetery, and when I arrived, I saw dozens of policemen inside and outside the cemetery, and the chief was standing there...... "Da Xuan pointed to the path next to the stone fence, "and he was lying here...... Facing the tombstones of his wife and son, he shot himself in the head. At that moment, I suddenly felt a sense of relief, and I knew that something was going to happen...... I'm fucking ......."
There was silence, and the tombstone remained silent, as if listening to the person in front of him, and as if there was nothing.
"Xun Keran, come here." Da Xuan stood up and said.
Coco walked around from behind the tombstone and walked over to him, coldly holding his hand.
"Brother, I respect you, but I will never repeat your mistakes, even if Lao Tzu becomes a wicked person in the world, he will not sacrifice his family. I can't be a hero like you, I'm not worth it for you, those twelve children, those medals, who remembers you? I'm a bastard, I haven't come to see you in the past two years, and now I brought someone here, and I'm ......" If she stopped suddenly, Coco turned her head to look, and her eyes were wet.
It was a deep scar that remained on the tombstone, and even more so in the hearts of the living.
Coco put the lit incense into the ash-covered incense burner, and Da Xuan took the opportunity to snort a few times, and his face looked calmer. Coco took him by the hand, led him to the back of the stone tablet, and said, "There is one thing you said wrong, and what you have done, someone will remember......"
Behind the tombstone there is a string of stone carved names, bright red paint
