Evening. Less than seven o'clock.

In the steaming hot pot restaurant, Jiang Luosheng and his father sat face to face.

Jiang Luosheng was holding a rabbit doll ornament in his hand, "It's so cute!" You bought it? ”

"That's right," Jiang Yuan looked at his daughter lovingly, "I happened to see it on the road, and I bought it because I thought it looked good." ”

"The handsome old guy has a good eye. Thanks! Jiang Luosheng pulled his shoulder bag and hung up the doll, which was two-thirds the size of the shoulder bag.

"Come, eat more." Jiang Yuan fished vegetables for his daughter from the hot pot, "Only when you are full can you have the strength to dance." ”

Jiang Luosheng looked at the dishes in the bowl, and then looked at Jiang Yuan opposite. Sure enough, eating hot pot is the happiest in winter.

"Dad, your house is rented?" She cared.

"Not yet." Jiang Yuan replied nonchalantly.

"When does the current contract expire?"

"At the end of this month."

"Isn't that coming soon?" Jiang Luosheng looked at him, "Do you need me to help you find a house?" ”

"Hey, no." Jiang Yuan waved his hand, "I'm going to look for it around there, it's convenient, and my friends are all there." ”

Jiang Luosheng nodded, "As soon as possible." It's not easy to find a cost-effective house in Binmen City. ”

"Yes, now Binmen City is full of land, and a small house of a few square meters can empty your wallet." Jiang Yuan looked at his daughter, "You have to calculate carefully, this rent is not as cost-effective as buying." ”

Jiang Luosheng noticed it.

Jiang Yuan asked her to eat because there was a big need.

"Dad is also old, and he has always been so stormy all his life, in case there is an illness or a disaster in the future, it will be troublesome." Jiang Yuan began to lay the groundwork.

"So what do you want me to do?" Jiang Luosheng is straightforward but not blameless.

"Girl, if you don't have a lot of money, can you borrow some money from your father first?" Jiang Yuan smiled, "Dad, I still have some in my hand, if you lend me some more, I can buy a small single one." ”

"How much do you want?" Jiang Luosheng asked him.

Jiang Yuan stepped forward and whispered: "Lend me 300,000 yuan, and I'll pay a down payment." ”

Jiang Luosheng's eyes widened. Another 300,000?

"Now the housing price in Binmen City is very exaggerated! Don't you know, I'm so remote there, and those second-hand singles are hundreds of thousands! ”

"Dad," Jiang Luosheng was helpless, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but I really don't have that much money." ”

"Just 300,000."

"I don't have that much at once, can I give it to you slowly?" Jiang Luosheng asked.

"No, people need so much down payment, and Dad doesn't have so much money on hand." Jiang Yuan looked embarrassed.

Jiang Luosheng sighed.

She was sure that with the down payment, the subsequent loan would also fall on her.

She didn't want to leave her father behind, but she still had to live in this skyrocketing price of goods in Binmen City.

This time, there is no reason to guide Xiao Qi to take the initiative to pay. With her current financial strength, it is still very difficult to buy a whole house for her father.

"Dad, I really don't have 300,000 now. I helped you lose 300,000 yuan before, gave you a lot of monthly salary, and paid you a lot of money to rent a new house, and I don't have much money to live on. Jiang Luosheng tried to negotiate, "Why don't you find a way to make it up from somewhere else?" I can give it to you slowly later. ”

She thought that Jiang Yuan would show a disappointed look.

But no. Jiang Yuan responded happily: "Understand, understand." Then Dad will think of other ways. ”

This reaction made Jiang Luosheng feel guilty.

She tried to help Jiang Yuan find a way, "Do you want to try to find a job?" ”

Back then, after Jiang Qingyuan committed suicide, he sorted out the evidence of Jiang Yuan's derailment and sent it to the mailbox of Jiang Yuan's colleagues, one for each person, forcing Jiang Yuan to resign and move to a remote place in Binmen City to escape people's gossip.

Since then, he has spent his days smoking, drinking, playing cards, and living on women.

"I'm too tired," Jiang Yuan immediately retorted, "I'm this old, what kind of work do I do?" The little money earned is not enough to drink the northwest wind. ”

Jiang Luosheng blinked, not wanting to force him, "Then what else can you think of?" ”

"Let's find a friend." Jiang Yuan said, "Those who play cards together are quite righteous. ”

Jiang Luosheng rolled his eyes, "Then you talk to that old king last time and ask him to lend you the 300,000 yuan you paid again." ”

Jiang Yuan smiled, "Girl, thank you last time." ”

"Thanks for what?" Jiang Luosheng still felt guilty, "Dad, if you have the ability, I will definitely help you." ”

"Dad knows. My daughter is the most sensible. ”

After that, Jiang Yuan really didn't mention this topic again, but just cared about his daughter's recent life.

Jiang Luosheng even overturned his previous speculation. My father does have a big need, but he wants to get along with her more often.

"By the way," Jiang Yuan was curious, "The young man I saw last time was your boyfriend?" ”

"Which time?"

"The Hammen Police/Bureau."

Jiang Luosheng blinked, "Yes, my boyfriend." ”

Jiang Yuan actually pouted, "I don't like that stinky boy." ”

Jiang Luosheng was amused by him, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's not big or small, it's not educated at all, and I don't know the rules." Jiang Yuan complained.

The stinky boy dared to press his head and pull his hair last time, and he was not polite to him.

"Okay, got it." Jiang Luosheng smiled, "Anyway, we can't go to the end." ”

The store was steaming hot, and the wind outside was biting.

A black Land Rover is parked outside a Japanese restaurant.

Xiao Qi stepped out of the car.

The shop was quiet, save for the small chatter of customers and the slight creaking of the wooden floor.

Xiao Qi walked into the private room, closed the door, and sat opposite Wan Qi.

The dim light framed their cold edges.

"Say it," Wan Qi said, without a word of nonsense, "conditions." ”

Xiao Qi didn't beat around the bush, "Jiang Luosheng's alibi, don't retract your confession." ”

Wan Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, "Retracted confession, does it affect you?" ”

"It has an impact on her." Xiao Qi said lightly, "I just want to make sure she doesn't get hurt in any way." ”

Wan Qi was a little surprised.

was caught with such a big handle, he thought that the condition would be money or power, no matter what the identity of the other party was.

But the condition is only that the confession is not retracted.

How deep is Jiang Luosheng involved in this matter?

Xiao Qi could guess Wan Qi's suspicions.

But if the police continue to investigate, Wan Qi will gradually become suspicious. Retracting a confession is something that will happen sooner or later.

It must be stopped in advance.

Xiao Qi opened his mouth to dispel the other party's concerns: "Jiang Luosheng didn't lie to you. The whole thing, has nothing to do with her. ”

Wan Qi glanced at him, "Give me a reason to believe you." ”

"I'm not here to gain trust." Xiao Qi said lightly, "I'm here to threaten you." ”

Wan Qi narrowed his eyes, "How do you know about me?" ”

"I do information security," Xiao Qi told him, "and it can also be hackers." ”

He thought it strange from the start.

Jiang Luosheng's art director, whose style is extremely utilitarian, agreed to help Jiang Luosheng forge an alibi.

No kind of compassion comes for no reason.

When Xiao Qi accompanied Jiang Luosheng to shoot a web page in Olingna, he heard that Lin Yubai's father had an illegitimate child.

Wan Qi and Lin Yubai have very similar side faces.

In order to catch the other party's handle, even if it is a momentary intuition, dig down thoroughly.

Xiao Qi started with Lin Yubai's network environment and hacked into the Lin family's equipment.

Back then, the Lin family sealed Xiao San's mouth with money, left transfer records and electronic agreements, and restrained Xiao San and his illegitimate child for the rest of his life.

This junior has the surname Wan.

The age of the illegitimate child speculated from the gossip is just right with Wan Qi.

Xiao Qi called Wan Qi half an hour ago to test it. Wan Qi's reaction showed that he didn't want to blow this matter up.

That's easy to do.

Wan Qi said leisurely, "How many times are you going to use this handle?" ”

"Only once."

"You're not afraid that I will retaliate against Jiang Luosheng?"

"I'm afraid. So you can rest assured that I won't need to do it a second time. Xiao Qi looked at the other party, "It's just that in this matter, our purpose is the same: to protect Jiang Luosheng." ”

Wan Qi was silent for a long time.

In order to refuse to recognize him as an illegitimate child, the father did whatever it took to do so.

He took his mother's surname, avoided talking about his father on all occasions, and the "father" column on his personal information was always blank.

He was ashamed of who he was. His father didn't recognize him, and he never thought of acknowledging his father.

Later, he met Jiang Luosheng and even knew about the matter between Jiang Luosheng and Jiang Qingyuan.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are occasionally slightly connected.

And this identity secret that he has been trying his best to protect for many years cannot be exposed.

"I'm not going to retract my confession." He finally spoke lightly.

Xiao Qi nodded, "Thank you." Then, he added, "Jiang Luosheng doesn't know about this, and he doesn't know that I'm coming." ”

Wan Qi looked at the young man in front of him, "Who are you?" ”

This time it was Xiao Qi's turn to be silent.

It took him half a minute before he spoke, "I'm her friend." ”

Wan Qi didn't speak.

That's all that needs to be said. Xiao Qi got up to leave, walked out of the private room, and closed the door again.
