Chapter 21: Ridiculous
Pango Technology Pantry.
Xiao Qi hung up the phone, turned around and told his colleagues: "I'm not going at night." You guys have fun. ”
"Brother, don't! Let's come together! ”
"Come on! For Christmas, people want to spend it with their sister-in-law. ”
Shen Lingshu lowered her head beside her and didn't say a word.
She saw Xiao Qi hang up his girlfriend's phone, but finally compromised and called back.
Then, he said that he would not come to the Christmas dinner in the evening.
She pouted. Originally, she saw Jiang Luosheng during the day yesterday, and she was convinced, planning to bury her feelings for many years and bless this pair well.
Unexpectedly, this Jiang Luosheng is a beautiful and murderous green tea, slapping a sweet date, and playing with such an excellent man.
She really felt sorry for Xiao Qi, and began to want to pull him out of this whirlpool more and more.
Seven o'clock in the evening. Backstage at the Binmen Grand Theater, the actors are making final preparations before going on stage.
Jiang Luosheng looked at his shoelaces in surprise and broke more than half of his pointe shoes.
She pulled up the remaining half, squinting her eyes to take a closer look at the broken part, which was very flat, obviously cut off with scissors.
It's here again. Harem Battle.
She was pampered by Olinna once, and she was about to be severely beaten and pressed into the dirt.
But she wasn't sure who it was this time. There are not a few colleagues who are openly and secretly jealous.
Although the pair of dancing shoes in her hand has been running in until she is on stage today, it just fits, but at the moment she has no choice but to change to a new pair of dancing shoes.
At the end of the performance, Jiang Luosheng came out of the backstage of the Grand Theater, and after a few words of greeting with fans at the door, it was already nearly eleven o'clock.
It was dark at night, and Land Rover was already waiting at the intersection.
Jiang Luosheng sat in the co-pilot.
Xiao Qi didn't speak, nor did he turn his head to look at her.
Jiang Luosheng put the flowers sent by the fans to the back seat and did not speak.
The Land Rover just stopped on the side of the road and turned off the fire. The two of them sat with their eyes straight ahead. The atmosphere in the car was awkward.
Silence lingered for a minute.
Jiang Luosheng finally decided to be the first to speak. After all, she asked Xiao Qi to come and pick her up.
"Officer Wen, they're coming for me today." She said.
Xiao Qi responded: "What do you ask?" ”
"They found two dash cams, it was November 1st, I drove my colleague's car, followed Jiang Yuan, from his house to ......" Jiang Luosheng said here, paused for a moment, "Jiang Qingyuan's house." ”
Xiao Qi turned his head and looked at her with a frown, as if he was a little surprised. "Are you looking for Jiang Qingyuan's address?"
"Yes. When I went to see Jiang Yuan before, I happened to hear their father and son on the phone. Jiang Yuan said that he went to see his son at nine o'clock in the evening on the first day. I borrowed my colleague's Volkswagen, followed Jiang Yuan all the way, and found ......" Jiang Luosheng paused again, "Jiang Qingyuan's address." ”
"You followed Jiang Yuan upstairs?" Xiao Qi asked her.
"Nope."
"Then how do you know that Jiang Qingyuan lives on the third floor?"
"I parked the car in the community and watched Jiang Yuan walk into the corridor. The lights in the corridor came on layer by layer, until the third floor, and I knew it. Jiang Luosheng explained to him, "Then I left." ”
Xiao Qi looked at her, "Hmm." ”
"When I went over on the fifth floor, the house on the left of the third floor had Fu characters and couplets pasted on the door, and it was lively." Jiang Luosheng smiled, "The right side is deserted, I naturally know that he lives on the right." ”
Xiao nodded at the beginning.
"But I didn't expect even this thing to be dug up."
"Why didn't you tell me before?"
"I heard you say at the time that you and your colleague were only asked for alibi certificates on numbers four and five. So I didn't care about anything else. ”
Xiao Qi was silent for a while, "How did you answer today's investigation?" ”
"I was sure that I was going for a ride that day, and that the route was just a coincidence."
Xiao Qi smiled helplessly, "Do they believe it?" ”
"Definitely not believe it. I don't believe it myself, it's ridiculous. Jiang Luosheng sighed, "But they don't have any evidence." ”
Xiao Qi nodded, "Okay." ”
"Xiao Qi," Jiang Luosheng slowly leaned back in the seat and lowered his eyes, "I'm a little scared." ”
Xiao Qi thought silently, his knuckled left hand rested on the steering wheel, and his index finger tapped lightly again and again.
It was a long time before he spoke, "Is there anything else you haven't told me about the timeline?" ”
Jiang Luosheng thought about it seriously, "No." ”
"Don't be afraid. It's okay. Xiao Qi lowered his left hand from the steering wheel, "You handled it well." ”
"Why did they check me so hard?" Jiang Luosheng is still worried.
Xiao Qi shook his head, "I won't just try to check you. ”
Jiang Luosheng pursed his lips, his brows still locked.
Xiao turned his head, caught a glimpse of her appearance, and said more: "Everyone they investigate will have their own secrets. Secrets are only auxiliary, and what they are looking for is ultimately evidence. ”
"It's been two months." Jiang Luosheng was faintly worried, "A routine investigation, two months of investigation. ”
"The Jiang father and son worked hard, and half of Binmen City had to be surnamed Jiang. That's not what you said? ”
Jiang Luosheng smiled softly.
"The deceased with chaotic interpersonal relationships is not easy to investigate." Xiao Qi comforted her, "Don't worry. If it's a routine investigation, it should be almost over. ”
"Okay." Jiang Luosheng said slowly, "I believe you." ”
Xiao Qi started the car, "Let's go." ”
"Hmm." Jiang Luosheng fastened his seat belt.
Christmas trees lining the road, hung with sparkling ornaments, adorn the city along with street lamps.
When the car passed by the central commercial street, Jiang Luosheng saw a huge Christmas tree in front of the mall, which was the same height as the mall's gate. Colorful lights and ribbons are all over the place, like a dream.
"Look, that Christmas tree is so beautiful." She tugged at her puffed cuffs, "Let's go over and see, okay?" ”
Land Rover turned around and stopped in front of the mall.
Jiang Luosheng opened the car door and was about to go out.
Xiao Qi grabbed her by the back collar and carried her back like a small animal.
"Wear a hat." He said impatiently, "It seems that the head doesn't hurt anymore?" ”
Jiang Luosheng obediently put on his hat, "Obey orders, don't be angry." ”
In front of the Christmas tree, several children are excitedly running in circles, and several couples are taking group photos.
Jiang Luosheng pulled the corner of his clothes, "Let's take a picture together." ”
Before Xiao Qi could respond, she pulled Xiao Qi to stand in front of the Christmas tree and clicked on her mobile phone to take a selfie.
The frame doesn't fit an entire tall tree. But what does it matter? If only there was room for the two of them.
"Come on, get closer." Jiang Luosheng naturally held Xiao Qi.
The two men were arm-in-arm, heads next to each other.
"One, two, three!" Jiang Luosheng pressed the shutter. After carefully examining her results, she felt very satisfied, "Look at the two of us, it really looks good with a casual shot!" It's so photogenic. ”
Xiao Qi glanced at the photo. He didn't smile, but Jiang Luosheng was next to him, smiling like a flower.
Really photogenic.
"Is there any news from Olinna?" Xiao Qi asked her.
Jiang Luosheng was stunned for a moment.
They had a big argument yesterday over this. So originally, she didn't want to tell Xiao Qi.
I didn't expect Xiao Qi to ask.
"Sent me a signing contract today." Jiang Luosheng told him, "Olinna's spokesperson." ”
"Congratulations."
"Thank you."
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward again.
"Let's go back." After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he was about to step forward.
Jiang Luosheng suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.
Then, she slowly stepped forward, wrapped her arms around his waist, and buried her head in his arms.
Even through the thick down jacket and sweater, she seemed to be able to smell the fresh and clean smell of the shower gel on Xiao Qi's body.
Xiao Qi was suddenly hugged by her like this, and was slightly stunned.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Jiang Luosheng was soft and glutinous in his arms, "Don't be angry anymore, okay?" ”
Xiao Qi sighed softly, wrapped one hand around her waist, and the other hand touched the top of her head, patting it gently.
After a while, Jiang Luosheng poked his head out of his arms and looked at him with a delicate little face, "I'll find a chance to compensate you, okay?" ”
Xiao Qi lowered his head and stared at her. After a long time, he replied, "Yes." ”
Jiang Luosheng smiled brightly, and finally hugged him tightly, and then came out of his arms, "Let's go, go home." ”
OK. Xiao Qi is no longer angry.
She turned, put away her smile, and walked to the side of the road.
Xiao Qi also took a step forward and followed behind her.
The child, who was running around the Christmas tree, suddenly tripped and fell to the ground crying.
But he would soon get back on his feet and continue to run with a smile.
The pain when I was a child was so simple that it passed as soon as I cried.
Later, the pain became complicated, but I couldn't cry anymore.
