Return to Lucheng in grief.

A few days later, Li Wei, the suspended head of the Binhe Public Security Bureau, was shot dead. As the only witness who appeared at the scene, Chen Xiao was listed as a major suspect.

Before that, after Ran Jing's patient care and careful recuperation, Chen Xiao's body recovered quickly. After organizing investigations, gunfights with drug dealers in the mountains and other things, Chen Xiao has matured a lot, but also looks down a lot, and is no longer in a hurry to express his views on some things.

Everyone will understand the true meaning of their own life, whether it is biased and gloomy, or the sunshine is full of positive energy, it is their own spiritual understanding.

The cruel lesson and the experience of life and death are the keys to Chen Xiao's enlightenment.

When Chen Xiao was recuperating from his injuries, Lao Wang of Pingyuan County kept sending all kinds of fish and soft-shelled turtles to his home to supplement his nutrition. Those lively fish aroused Chen Xiao's addiction to fishing, and he wiped the fishing rod every day when he had free time, Ran Jing hid the fishing gear, and said that when you are injured, you can fish as much as you want, and now take care of your body first.

After Chen Xiaoneng walked around the ground, Ran Jing went to work on a case. Chen Xiao felt bored at home, and at this time, his classmate Li Wei was staying at home and had nothing to do during his suspension.

The two talked on the phone, and Li Wei came to pick up Chen Xiao, drove Chen Xiao's car to the suburbs, and went fishing by the riverside in the suburbs. In the past, Chen Xiao also fished, but there were too few fish on the hook, and every time he couldn't help but fry the fish with the old king of the plains, after the loud noise, the white flowers on the water splashed together, bringing him an incomparable sense of achievement. And fried fish also has a benefit to him, that is, he can make his ears deaf for a while, and he doesn't have to listen to Ran Jing's nagging for the time being when he goes home.

After so many things, Chen Xiao has calmed down and no longer fried fish, even if he can't catch a fish for a day, he is no longer impatient.

When it was almost noon, he and Li Wei found nothing, Li Wei was a little impatient, in fact, it was fake to go out fishing with Chen Xiao, his real purpose was to inquire about his own affairs through Chen Xiao, now the Ocean Group is facing bankruptcy, he and the Ocean Group have always been very close, and the last time the Ocean Group borrowed his hand to bribe the police chief, he was eager to know how the task force dealt with him.

But Chen Xiao didn't know anything about this, and he never dared to ask his aunt about this. Li Wei felt that he couldn't learn anything from him, so he put down the fishing rod in disappointment, and looked at Chen Xiao, who had been closed for so long, although he hadn't caught a fish, he was still full of interest, and it was not good to go directly, so he said to go upstream to have a look, and Chen Xiao said okay.

Li Wei left for about half an hour, Chen Xiao heard two sounds from a mile away, with the experience of the criminal police, he judged that it was a gunshot, so he ran to the place where the gun rang out with a cane, and went a long way along the river beach, and found that Li Wei had fallen on a water, grass, sand and gravel, already dead, and both shots were hit in the head.

The gun was thrown aside, and Chen Xiao recognized it at a glance as his own matching gun.

Chen Xiao has a habit of putting the gun into a small bag when he goes out, and when he drives, he will put this bag under the seat, where he makes a secret compartment. Many police officers in the criminal police team did this, and this time they were fishing with Li Wei, and they were so busy carrying fishing gear that they forgot to carry firearms with them.

Seeing Li Wei's death on the river beach, Chen Xiao quickly threw away his crutches, pounced on it, picked up the gun and began to search the surroundings.

The surrounding river beach was empty, and his car door opened, knowing that it had been opened, Chen Xiao realized that the situation was serious, and immediately called the police, and the police investigated the scene, although they found some clues, but did not find any witnesses. After forensic identification, Li Wei was shot, the gun was Chen Xiao's gun, and there were fingerprints left by Chen Xiaoxin on the gun, so he was naturally listed as a suspect.

After Li Wei's death, because the case was not solved, the police could not characterize his death, which could only be regarded as murder, not martyrdom. But he has been a police officer for many years, has also cracked many cases, and is the director of the sub-bureau, and the police still held a funeral for him.

Chen Xiao and Li Wei are classmates, and Li Wei's wives Han Xuejuan and Ran Jing are also high school classmates, and the two families usually have close contacts. Although Chen Xiao is seriously suspected, we all believe that Li Wei's death has nothing to do with him. He has no reason to kill Li Wei, there is no extinguishment, and there is no conflict of interest between the two, in contrast, Li Wei is in the period of suspension and investigation, the future is uncertain, and Chen Xiao has no value in killing him.

The aunt sighed for a long time about this incident, but in the end she calmly summarized privately - if it was really Chen Xiao who shot Li Wei, it was a mental illness that killed a depressed patient. After sighing, he said how the two old policemen were so uneasy, and said that sooner or later the matter would come to light.

Ran Jing was faintly worried, she didn't believe Chen Xiao, but after listening to her aunt's summary, she felt that if Chen Xiao really suffered from mental illness, it might not be possible.

So, she looked for an opportunity to ask Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao was still immersed in the grief of the murder of his classmate and friend for many years, staring at the sunset and falling leaves outside the window in a daze, his dull eyes made Ran Jing even more suspicious of his mental condition.

She asked, "Li Wei... It really wasn't you who shot the gun? ”

Chen Xiao looked out the window in a daze: "You are sick." ”

Ran Jing asked again: "Then how did your gun be taken away, and you are an old criminal policeman, it is impossible to be so careless." ”

Chen Xiao was still in a daze: "You are sick." ”

Ran Jing continued to ask: "Why does the gun have your fresh fingerprints on it, but not the gunman's?" ”

Chen Xiao insisted in a daze: "You are sick." ”

When Chen Xiao's pupils were cold, Ran Jing stepped back three feet and asked in a low voice: "I believe you, just perform the interrogation procedure." But why do you look stupid, do you have a disease and don't know it? ”

Chen Xiao was stunned for an instant: "I'm wondering why the murderer didn't kill me?" And what kind of disease are you referring to?"

Ran Jing retreated to the door: "Are you stupid? Who killed you as the murderer? I'm talking about sleepwalking and things like seeing fallen leaves and thinking it's the tears of a tree. ”

Chen Xiao turned his head, smiled and said, "You said that if the murderer killed me and left Li Wei, wouldn't it be better, he would be more suspicious than me." The outside world will speculate that I have evidence of Li Wei's violation of discipline, and he wants to silence him. ”

Ran Jing opened the door and only showed half of her head and said, "Is it useful to kill you?" Li Wei was killed only after mastering other people's secrets. And you, you will only destroy other people's secrets. The last time I asked you, did you have any conditions like you couldn't sleep at night, had no energy during the day, wanted to hide when you saw a lot of people, and wanted to hang up to dry after seeing me after taking a shower? ”

Chen Xiao jumped over and reached out to grab Ran Jing with an arrow step, and said, "It's time for you to take medicine." ”

Ran Jing quickly kicked sideways, and Chen Xiao lay down.

Meng Meng just came out of the room after finishing her homework and saw this scene, and shouted loudly: "Mom, you are sick!" ”

Ran Jing went to attend Li Wei's funeral.

At the funeral, in front of so many colleagues, Li Wei's wife Han Xuejuan lost her mind and scolded Chen Xiao for being a murderer. No matter how Ran Jing explained, she didn't listen. Han Xuejuan has been a housewife at home for so many years, and she doesn't have much judgment and recognition ability, and she has heard a lot of rumors in the society about Chen Xiao killing Li Wei, and some people even say that Li Wei has mastered some shady illegal facts about her aunt, Chen Xiao had an argument with him and shot Li Wei in a rage.

Li Wei has done a lot of bribery in disguise over the years, so Han Xuejuan thought that the higher-level police chief would definitely not be clean, so she was convinced of her aunt's claim that she was corrupt and illegal. Ran Jing had no choice but to leave the funeral scene, but Han Xuejuan pulled her and refused to let her go. Ran Jing was angry and slapped her hard, and the friendship between the two families ended.

In fact, the aunt and the task force both guessed that Li Wei's death must be related to the Ocean Group, and now they are just waiting for the day when the case is solved to restore the truth of the matter.

Although Li Wei is not my friend, after all, he often walks around with Chen Xiao, and the two are not brothers in life and death, but they have a very close relationship in the local police circles, and I am also very sad.

Several times I heard Ran Jing and others judge the cause of his death, and when I heard about the Ocean Group, my heart trembled. is even more worried about Meng Xing, and there has been no news from Yunnan. Meng Xing, whose life and death are uncertain, has become the thing I remember the most.

In those days, I thought about it a lot, from the beginning of knowing Meng Xing to so many things that happened in the middle, every time I thought of the moment when Meng Xing fell off the cliff, I didn't even have time to say something else, my heart was as heavy as pressing a stone.

From Wish, Meiyu to Chen Xiao, Meng Xing and Li Wei, there are some people I am not familiar with, I don't know how many more people will die before these things can be over. The people around me have suffered misfortunes, but I have no way to change it, maybe I shouldn't have provoked Zhang Shuai and the guards from the beginning, even if they end up in the law, the dead will not be resurrected.

In this stormy season, Zixuan has also become a piece of my heart.

During the nearly month I went to Yunnan, Zixuan soaked in Lost Place every day to drink, and Li Shang and Junjun persuaded him many times, but he scolded him every time.

On a rainy night, Chu Qing called, saying that Zixuan had drunk too much and called her outside the Lost place, talking incoherently, begging for a while, threatening to kill her for a while, and let me go over and have a look.

Driving to Wutong Square, Zixuan ran back and forth on the square, his mobile phone was shattered on the ground, and the rain couldn't hide the choking smell of alcohol on his body.

I walked up to him and grabbed him, and he stopped, looking at me steadily, as if he was facing me, and he shouted, "I also want to get ahead, and I've been working hard!" In order to do better, I can ignore anything, why do you do this! ”

I went over to give him an umbrella, and he snatched it and threw it aside and yelled, "You know, I'm working very hard and trying hard, how can you be satisfied?" Even you are entitled to play her! Why! ”

I was startled and responded to him loudly: "What are you talking about!" ”

"Don't think I don't know! That night, I stood downstairs all night, and if someone else played with my wife, I put up with it! Why are you! I've always treated you as a brother! You brute! ”

I was stunned and shouted at him: "Since you are a brother, you should believe me, I didn't do anything to be sorry for you!" ”

"Don't mention brother to me! From the night you and Chu Qing were there, you weren't my brother! ”

I couldn't resist slapping him anymore and saying, "Be sober!" I never did anything to be sorry for you, you can go and ask Chu Qing! ”

"Don't mention that bitch!" Zixuan roared and jumped over, his eyes were red, and he jumped up and fought like crazy.

The two of us writhed together in the rain, and he seemed to be trying his best to fight with me, regardless of it, and fell down and got up again. I don't know how many punches I took from him in my face and body, I could only retreat, I didn't want to fight back, and my heart was flustered and sad.

In his eyes, I had become enemies, and we were like mechanical dolls fighting endlessly in this cold and unforgiving world, and he poured out all his hatred for life on me.

In the end, both of them were tired and lay on the ground naked, and Zixuan was lying on the grass not far from me, panting for breath. I was drenched in the rain, and the corners of my mouth were bleeding, but the blood was washed away by the rain for a while.

In this way, the rain poured so that people could not open their eyes, and after a long while, the rain became heavier and heavier, and he got up first, and walked forward with his bare arms, trembling and leisurely. I sat up and tried to say something, but I choked on the rain and couldn't say anything. I watched him walk towards the curtain of rain, towards the end of the dark street, into the night, until he disappeared into the mist, leaving behind the street that had been washed clean by the rain and cratered into the distance.

After that, I knew that in Zixuan's eyes, I would become a complete stranger. In life, there are some misunderstandings that you can't justify at all, so you can only bear them silently.

Looking at his hobbled away, haggard and lost back, I wanted to cry without tears, I couldn't believe that this was a four-year college classmate, and I couldn't believe that after tonight, I was a stranger to the best brotherhood and parted ways, just because of a painful misunderstanding.

Suddenly confused, I don't know how to face all this, and I don't know how long I can be strong.

Standing in the rain for a long time, he staggered into the Lost place, but fortunately Li Shang and Junjun were not there this night. My embarrassment drew the attention of all the guests.

Alcohol does anesthetize everything, and even makes people who experience pain lose their memory for a short time, not because alcohol is magical, but because they are burned unconscious and lose the ability to think, so they don't have to think about things that bother them.

When I got drunk, the rain had stopped outside, and the sky was low and full of unknowns. I had to walk alone on the street for a long time, sad for too long, and a kind of insanity welled up in my heart, the world I saw had been distorted, and the people and things on the street hid one unbearable pain after another.

Passing by a military compound, I drunkenly shouted at the armed police standing guard from behind, "What are you doing... Stand so straight! ”

The armed policeman's legs trembled, looked left and right suspiciously, ignored me, and still stood up straight.

This is the night after the rain in the city, cool, dark, insidious, in short, cloudy enough.
