In the early morning of the next day, Qin Man arrived at the city bureau half an hour in advance and found the criminal investigation team by himself, but before he entered the door, he heard snoring one after another.

There was an indescribable smell in the air, the smell of smoke, instant noodles, sweat and feet fermented overnight at the same time, and then floated out leisurely.

When she got closer, she thought that the police station could be burglarized, the unfinished instant noodles were soaked in unfinished cigarette butts, the water was spilled on the table and no one cared, the coat fell on the ground and there were two footprints, and a group of old men were lying staggered, sleeping soundly.

I don't know who looked up at the visitor vigilantly, and then let out an exclamation.

",!"

"There's a girl!"

One by one, the young men sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, popped up from behind the table, looked over with the confused eyes that had just woken up, and then immediately repaired their overindulgent posture without saying a word, trying to establish a good, positive first impression.

Qin Man was dressed in casual clothes, with loose clothes on his slender body, revealing a faint curve.

The long hair just over the shoulder is buttoned behind the ears, the delicate and small goose egg face has soft lines, the beautiful arc of the nose bridge is just right, the thin lips are slightly curled, and the skin is so white that it lacks blood, which is not bright, but it can withstand scrutiny.

It's like a beautiful woman with painted skin coming out of an oriental book.

Her willow-like slender eyes are always half-open, and the whole person exudes a disdain for her surroundings from the inside out, and with indifferent eyes, she stands as a sign that no one is close to.

She was so smoky by the indescribable smell that she glanced around without being surprised, didn't say hello, walked directly through the aisle as if no one was around, opened the window wide for ventilation, and then picked an empty spot in the corner at random, threw the men's jacket on the back of the chair to another empty chair, put down the backpack and walked away again.

Leaving these big men staring at the copper bell and looking at each other.

"Isn't this the girl who was there yesterday?"

"So hanging......"

"Didn't you say that there was going to be a newcomer in the team in the next two days, it was her?"

"Tsk...... I feel that Team Jiang can't control her. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a head stretched back again, and Qin Man asked everyone.

"How do I get to the captain's office?"

They all pointed in the same direction again, and they didn't dare to say a word more.

Qin Man thanked him lightly, and went directly to the captain to report.

Outside Jiang Lian's office, she stood with her long legs folded and her body so lazy that she had no muscles, leaning against the wall of the corridor and lighting the cigarette in her mouth.

At the end of the corridor there was a regular sound of footsteps, and without any delay, a tall and straight figure gradually approached.

In search of prestige, only the silhouette of the man could be seen in the poorly lit corridor.

The jacket is taken off and stacked on the arm, and the three-dimensional cut shirt highlights the figure, and the broad shoulders are well-proportioned, revealing a thin waist line with the natural swing of the arms.

She was fascinated by it, and took a sharp puff of her cigarette, exhaling a white mist into the silhouette, her eyes hiding behind the smoke, staring deadly.

The figure was getting closer and closer, overlapping in trance with some unclear fragment of the memory.

Like a cloudy day in the twilight of the last day, blood and fire spread all over the land, and the eyes were covered with the residue of raging fire, and the crackling explosions continued.

She vaguely remembered how the firelight of tomorrow stinged her eyes, and how the choking smoke of gunpowder smoked into her lungs.

On the ruins after the explosion, in addition to her fast-flowing soul, there was also a vague figure that stepped on fire.

Like a ghost, more like a god.

And at this moment, in the quiet corridor of the city bureau, the footsteps stepped on the exact same pace in her thoughts, step by step, towards her.

"Are you waiting for me?"

Qin Man retracted his gaffe eyes, "Jiang Lian? ”

"It's me."

Qin Man skillfully took out his cigarette case and handed it over, "Do you smoke?" ”

Jiang Lian's eyebrows twitched, "I don't smoke." ”

Qin Man was about to withdraw his hand when he heard this, but Jiang Lian snatched the entire cigarette case, causing Qin Man's head to be full of question marks.

"You also smoke less, it's not good for your health."

Qin Man smiled awkwardly, he didn't have any opinions on the surface, and he was very cooperative, feeling that he had pinched the cigarette butts on his hand.

She stretched out her hand to make a half-grip and said solemnly, "Captain Jiang, I am a newcomer, I don't know the rules, and I still look at Haihan." ”

Jiang Lian stretched out his hand and held it, "Welcome to join, Qin Man." ”

They are quite satisfied with this self-deception and making up for the "re-acquaintance".

Jiang Lian invited her into the office, "Come in and talk." ”

Qin Man fell into the guest seat, went straight in, and asked directly.

"It's you, isn't it?"

Jiang Lian: "What? ”

"I checked your duty records, three months ago, you had a gap of more than 20 days, saying that it was to participate in training camps and go to overseas exchange activities, which was a disguise."

"The operation of Sin Chew Island is a first-class secret, the time, personnel, and location are not exposed, and your gap period coincides with the time of the operation, counting the time of the round trip, there are more than ten days, are you injured?"

Jiang Lian didn't have anything to hide, although none of these could theoretically be mentioned, but Qin Man guessed it himself.

"A little flesh wound."

Qin Man got the expected answer and was silent for a moment.

"Why did you save me?"

Jiang Lian asked rhetorically, "Then why do you have to save that person?" ”

Qin Man's question was knocked back as it was, and he was stunned.

"How do you know?"

Jiang Lian weighed his words and sentences, like a patient teacher.

"Stress responses vary from person to person, and some people will have re-experiencing symptoms in similar situations, and they will be trapped in the illusion constructed by their brains, and they will react in the same way as they did at that time, or what their hearts want, and they will not be able to extricate themselves from that false world.

He looked at Qin Man, "The normal reaction to a sudden explosion is to flee, not to rush inside." ”

After Jiang Lian finished speaking, he waited for Qin Man to explain.

She avoided the important and trivialized, "worthy of being the captain of the criminal investigation team." ”

Jiang Lian automatically filtered out this flattery, still waiting for her answer. But she was so sullen that she lowered her head, and the box she had just opened closed again.

Jiang Lian squinted at her, even if he was itchy in his heart, he couldn't do anything about her.

He changed the subject.

"The case materials should not be prepared so early, and it is estimated that there will be some time before the regular meeting, so I can take you to get acquainted with other colleagues in the city bureau first."

Qin Man is clearly organized.

"I was half an hour ahead today, and at this point, I'm afraid that the only people who have arrived are the criminal investigation team that has stayed up all night. And the office of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, I have already been there. ”

Jiang Lian raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, and there was a strange long silence, they each chose the question they wanted to answer, very insincere, and there was a chat without a match.

Qin suddenly figured it out, and answered him jumpingly.

"I could have dodged the explosion, but I turned back, and as you said, I wanted to save someone. As to why I wanted to save him, I can't answer that question, because I don't know it myself. ”

"Then what questions can you answer?"

Qin Man: "What do you want to know?" ”

"You, your past, your present, your future, everything about you, I want to know."
