He Ping and Guo Xiaotian chatted, and quietly sat on the sofa watching TV with Li Ping after washing the dishes and chopsticks.

Jingjing turned her head to look at He Ping, watching the TV but listening to the conversation between the two with her ears.

Guo Xiaotian and He Ping chatted, from geography to politics, from culture to history, from the beginning of ape-man to the present civilization, from stone tools to modern technology, from people's livelihood to war and peace.

Guo Xiaotian talked endlessly, He Ping listened with relish, and sometimes inserted into the topic to express his opinions, Guo Xiaotian praised He Ping and then expanded He Ping's opinions one by one, and taught him the real work.

Just as the two were talking about the cultural differences between Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism, Jing Jing couldn't help it.

"Mom, there are so many topics for these two people!"

"Your father's encyclopedia doesn't teach his son-in-law some knowledge, he's unwilling!" Li Ping is still concerned about Guo Xiaotian's concealment from the sky and the elevator in the house.

"Mom, look at what you said." Quietly whispered.

"You sleep with me at night!" Li Ping's tone was irrefutable.

"Where's my dad? Did he sleep in the same room as He Ping? Jing Jing didn't know why Li Ping decided so.

"He slept in the study, and he told me that there were still 350,000 manuscripts to be written, and he had to work overtime." Li Ping said lightly

"Oh." Jingjing didn't know if what Li Ping said was true or not, but listening to his mother's tone, it was impossible for Guo Xiaotian to go back to the house to sleep.

Li Ping looked at the time, it was ten o'clock.

"Xiaotian, Jing Jing and I went back to the house to sleep first. There is fruit in the fridge, and at night you are tired from writing, eat some fruit and rest. Next time, don't boast about Haikou, it's too hurtful to catch up with hundreds of thousands of words a month," Li Ping said, with some blame and distress in his tone.

Guo Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and suddenly realized.

"Oh, it's okay! You guys go to bed first, I'm used to it, eat some fruit to refresh yourself. Guo Xiaotian hit his teeth and swallowed in his stomach.

He Ping didn't know what had happened in the middle, and when he heard that Guo Xiaotian had to write hundreds of thousands of words a month, although he had no concept of writing a book, he could hear from the tone of his parents that it was a big project.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to delay you so much, why don't you get busy first?" He Ping said apologetically.

"It's okay, it's okay. I've been used to it for a long time! Why don't you rest early? "When it comes to this, it can only be played according to Li Ping's words.

"Then uncle, you're busy!" He Ping took the toiletries that Jing Jing had prepared for him, and returned to the room after taking a shower.

After Guo Xiaotian took a bath in He Ping, he poked his head out, washed it, wore big pants and a vest, dragged a trailer and walked into the study with a cigarette in his mouth.

Sitting at the desk, he tapped his fingers on the table, "Alas! The book has just ended, and this is going to open another one! ”

Guo Xiaotian just sat quietly and fell into deep thought.

Li Ping lowered his head to arrange the quilt and asked, "What do He Ping's parents do?" ”

He Ping mentioned to Jingjing that he was an orphan and grew up in the army with the general, if he said it truthfully, he was afraid that Li Ping would oppose it, so he thought for a moment and said, "His father is a soldier, and his mother didn't hear him mention it much."

Li Ping heard Jing Jing say that He Ping didn't mention his mother much, and felt that there was something wrong, so he straightened up and turned his head, and asked, "Rarely mention his mother?" Is he a single parent? ”

"Oh, my mother is so careful, it's a loss if you don't be a detective!" Jing Jing was secretly surprised, and pretended to be calm and said, "Mom, he just mentioned his father when we chatted, I can't ask all the information of his family like checking the household registration!" ”

Li Ping felt that what Jing Jing said made sense, nodded and said, "Yes, it seems that you haven't known each other for a long time." Well, go to sleep! ”

Li Ping laid out the quilt and didn't ask Jing Jing again.

He Ping returned to Jingjing's room, and didn't look at it carefully when he was drunk, at this time it seemed that Jingjing had a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, and everything had to be neatly stacked.

The faint fragrance that permeates the room makes the mood soothed.

He Ping untied the gun and put it in a drawer, picked up his mobile phone and looked at the information he received. Lei Lie has arranged people there, and he doesn't need special attention. The information is mainly to report the safety issues of the second master, since nothing abnormal was found, He Ping felt a lot more relaxed.

……

In the morning, the sun pours indoors.

It was already past seven o'clock when He Ping opened his eyes, and he was just about to get up when he heard a knock on the door.

"He Ping, it's time for breakfast!" Quiet voices came from outside.

"Oh, it's up!" He Ping responded.

In the army, he developed the habit of quickly dressing and folding quilts, and in less than two minutes, He Ping was neatly dressed and folded the quilt into tofu blocks.

When I walked out of the room, I saw Jing Jing sitting at the dining table, with two bowls of porridge, four buns and a few fried dough sticks in front of her.

"Okay?" Jing Jing asked.

"Well, what about aunt and uncle?" He Ping couldn't see Li Ping and Guo Xiaotian and asked.

"Mom went to school, and Dad had just gone to bed, and he gave me the man's address, saying that you woke up and asked me to take you there. You go wash it down, I'll wait for you. Said quietly.

"Is it far from here?" He Ping walked to the bathroom and asked casually.

"It's not far, five or six kilometers!" Jing Jing thought about the approximate location, and said with a mental estimate.

He Ping stopped suddenly, and estimated in his heart, "Five or six kilometers, it is understandable that a dog runs so far, and a cat runs so far, is it just to eat mosquito repellent grass?" ”

"What's wrong?" Jingjing saw He Ping stunned and asked.

"Is there mosquito repellent near your house?" He Ping asked.

"There are many places to have mosquito repellent grass, but I don't understand why Lord Meow is here." Jing Jing knew what He Ping was thinking.

"Oh!" He Ping thought about it, didn't ask anything, and wanted to go to the bathroom again.

He Ping thought while brushing his teeth, "Uncle should know that investigating the origin of Lord Meow is a confidential matter, so he didn't ask too much, just told himself some things he knew." Why is Lord Meow so far away from home, it is more like running away from home, or escaping. ”

"He Ping, you're a little slow to scrub! I'm hungry! Quietly urged.

"Right away!" He Ping quickly applied Guo Xiaotian's facial cleanser to his face and rinsed it quickly with his hands.

"When you were so good to your father, I will also be very touched!" Guo Xiaotian came out of the room rubbing his hazy sleepy eyes.

"Dad, you're awake." Jing Jing said embarrassedly.

"I woke up early, I'm sleepwalking now, this phone number is given to He Ping, if you can't find anyone, call him." Guo Xiaotian handed Jing Jing a business card, turned around and went back to the room.

He Ping heard the conversation between the two, walked over, and asked, "What kind of phone did uncle say?" ”

Jingjing handed the business card to He Ping and said, "That person's contact information, if you can't find it, call him." ”

He Ping took the business card, looked back and forth, his brows gradually furrowed, and said silently, "Fang Zhengye, construction engineer?" ”

"Questions?" Quietly looking at He Ping's expression, he was a little worried.

He Ping shook his head and said, "There are many kinds of construction engineers, if there is a project, he is more likely to go on a business trip, and it is estimated that he can't usually take care of Lord Meow, so let Lord Meow give it to you." ”

"What if he's on a business trip?" Jing Jing asked.

He Ping sat down and said, "Let's eat, and we'll go over after eating." ”

"Would you like to give him a call first?" Jing Jing asked.

"No, let's just go over there." He Ping didn't want the news of his tracking of Lord Meow's clues to be revealed in advance, he also wanted to see the first scene left by Lord Meow and the person's first reaction, so that the information would be more real.

He Pinghe finished eating quietly, cleaned up and went out.

"Don't drive, let's ride a shared bicycle over and take a look at the scenery nearby?" He Ping asked.

"Good! I haven't ridden a bike in a long time. Jing Jing He Ping's proposal agreed, and it is also a romantic thing for people who prefer to ride bicycles along the road to see the scenery together.

The two of them each swept a bicycle, and quietly took He Ping along the wide and clean road, singing birds and flowers all the way, laughing and laughing, and unconsciously arrived at Fang Zhengye's residence.

"It's here, it's around here." Quietly looking at the buildings around me, I just don't know the exact location.

He Ping glanced around, found no suspicious people, and began to carefully observe everything around him.

This is a new area of development, and some of the new high-rise buildings have not yet been renovated, and some are still under construction. In a residential area, clusters of two- and three-story courtyards are more like independent villas, appearing on the opposite side of the road.

"Let's go there and ask." He Ping pointed to the residential area and said.

The two crossed the road and came to the security booth in the residential area.

"Excuse me, where is this address?" He Ping stepped forward and asked a security guard on duty.

The security guard is like a simple farmer, just wearing a security uniform, with this hometown accent in Mandarin, and said, "It's this community, Founder is also an engineer, I know, it seems that I have been on a business trip these days." ”

"On a business trip?" Jing Jing asked in surprise, but she didn't expect that what she was worried about still happened.

"Well, I just left two days ago, and when I left, I left the key, saying that if a friend came over, I would give him the key, is that you?" The security guard returned the business card to He Ping and asked.

"He's my friend, I just came from Z City, I came here two days ago, and I was delayed." He Ping said lightly, not like lying at all.

"Either you call him to confirm, we have to confirm, otherwise hehe, it's hard to say." The security guard still has some doubts in his heart, and it is difficult to speak.

"Yes, I'll call him." He Ping dialed the number, thinking about his words.

"Sorry, your call is temporarily unreachable." The voice on the phone made He Ping's heart feel steady, and he wanted to think of a big explanation, but he didn't expect it to be so direct.

At this time, He Ping felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he couldn't tell where the uneasiness came from.

"I am also at the construction site, and it is estimated that the signal is not good and cannot be connected." He Ping turned on the hands-free and showed it to the security guard.

The security uncle saw that He Ping and Jingjing didn't look like bad people, and he was not good at interrogating, and said, "Forget it, I'll go get the key." ”

The security uncle handed the key to He Ping and said, "You can take the key with you, he said that he would ask you when he came back." ”

He Ping was shocked, only felt that his face changed instantly, and he didn't know if he showed it, so he forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart and said, "Thank you!" ”

Jing Jing also felt a little strange, her eyes flashed over He Ping's face in an instant, and then turned to the security uncle, and said, "Thank you, uncle, let's go in first!" ”

When the security guard heard the quiet and soft voice, the smile on his pure face became brighter, and he said, "Hey, just look for me if you have anything." ”

He Ping nodded at the security uncle, and walked quietly and quickly towards Fang Zhengye's house.
