Xishi Street is located in the center of the city, it used to be a shantytown street, in 08 years when the urban area was renovated, the shantytowns here were placed on the outskirts of the city, the old houses left behind have been renovated, but it has become a building with a unique flavor, and then after the government's investment planning, now this Xishi Street has become a hot spot in Yuehu City, people come and go on weekdays, and there is an endless stream.

Wanheyuan is not close to Xishi Street, and it is still the peak season. It takes at least 20 minutes to drive there. After hanging up the phone, Yu Guang got out of the car, and after walking forward for a while, he stopped a taxi.

By the time he arrived at the east entrance of Xishi Street, Xu Mingzhi had already arrived.

Before he got out of the car, he saw the man who was playing with his mobile phone with his head down. People who are policemen, especially those who are criminal policemen, always have a temperament that is different from ordinary people, and when they are released into the crowd, they are like a firefly floating in the darkness where they can't see their fingers, not bright, but enough to attract people's eyes.

"Handsome guy, it's here, fifteen yuan, is it paid by mobile phone or cash?" The driver's voice drew Yu Guang's gaze back. After Yu Guang turned over the cash from his bag and handed it to the driver, he got out of the car and walked to Xu Mingzhi's side.

Sure enough, before he took two steps, Xu Mingzhi had already looked up at him.

"What to eat." After the two came together, Xu Mingzhi asked.

Yu Guang replied: "Is it okay to stir-fry?" ”

"Okay."

On the way, neither of them spoke, Yu Guang led Xu Mingzhi into a small restaurant along the river at the back of Xishi Street, found a corner location, sat down and ordered, and asked for two bottles of beer.

The proprietress sent a plate of peanuts, Yu Guang poured Xu Mingzhi a glass of wine, and after the two took a sip of peanuts, Yu Guang asked Xu Mingzhi: "Do you want to ask about Jin Jiaojiao again?" ”

Xu Mingzhi shook his head and said, "I know you can't say it, I understand." ”

Yu Guangyan raised his eyes and stared at him, and after a few seconds, he snorted and said, "You don't have to follow me like this." ”

Xu Mingzhi showed a wry smile and said, "This case is about to be closed." ”

Closed? Yu Guang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Found the murderer?" ”

Xu Mingzhi picked up the wine glass, looked at the foam in the cup that was dissipating, and said, "There is no murderer, Jin Jiaojiao committed suicide." ”

Yu Guang suddenly frowned: "Suicide? ”

Xu Mingzhi nodded: "Jin Jiaojiao's parents came to identify the body today, they thought that they forced Jin Jiaojiao to death, and it just so happened that we have not found strong evidence to prove that Jin Jiaojiao was killed by him, so the above means that the case is closed as suicide." ”

After hearing this, Yu Guang fell silent.

After that, no one spoke again. When he was about to finish eating, Xu Mingzhi was called away by a phone call, and Yu Guang drank the rest of the beer alone.

Walking out of the restaurant, pedestrians outside the door are walking in the evening breeze. Children are laughing and running around, couples are hugging each other and murmuring, everything is so beautiful.

Yu Guang suddenly felt a little trance, as if he had returned to that early summer night, he was eating barbecue on the street with his friends, the evening breeze was so warm, everything around him was so cheerful and happy, and then a phone call came, shattering everything in front of him. Since then, his life has fallen into a dark alley, and the light is obviously not far away, he can see it, but he can't touch it.

He found a stone bench in the shade of a tree and sat down, lit a cigarette and looked at the vivid and beautiful world. The evening breeze carried the tide of the river, wrapped in the sound of frolicking people, like a big wave, and kept lapping on him wave after wave.

The afterglow was in a trance, and it took a long time before I finally settled down.

took out his mobile phone, looked at the time, it was already past nine o'clock, and there were many fewer pedestrians on the street, so he got up and walked outside Xishi Street.

Twenty minutes later, he returned to Wanhe Yuan.

In the underground parking lot, the Audi was gone.

Yu Guang did not rush to confirm who lived in 1601's room, so as not to arouse the other party's vigilance. After returning to the car, Yu Guang called the substitute driver to drive the car back to the parking lot of the Lily Night Market, and then stepped into the field outside the parking lot.

May 10, 2016, 1:20 a.m.

Xu Mingzhi had just returned home after being busy, and his wife had already slept. After Xu Mingzhi tiptoed to wash up, he was about to enter the bedroom, when suddenly the mobile phone rang, Xu Mingzhi was worried about waking his wife, and hurriedly entered the study.

The call was from Yu Guang.

"Lily Night Market for supper, do you want to come?" Yu Guang's voice was cold and indifferent, but there was a magic that people couldn't refuse.

Xu Mingzhi thought that his play was in vain at dinner today, but he didn't expect that the afterglow of the middle of the night gave him a surprise. Xu Mingzhi agreed without hesitation, changed his clothes and prepared to go out.

"Do you want to go out so late?" His wife, Wang Yuning, woke up at some point, standing at the door of the bedroom, leaning against the door, looking at him faintly.

Xu Mingzhi has been very busy recently, especially after Jin Jiaojiao's case came out, he hasn't seen her for several days. Seeing her at this moment, I couldn't help but feel guilty, so I turned around and walked to her and hugged her gently, and after a moment of silence, I explained softly: "I'm going to see an informant, you sleep obediently, and I'll make you your favorite tomato noodles in the morning." ”

Wang Yuning's head was lightly pressed against his shoulder, and he didn't speak, but he just hugged his waist but tightened it a little.

Xu Mingzhi didn't urge, his hands gently soothed her back one by one.

A few minutes later, Wang Yuning finally let go of his hand unwillingly, and after telling him to pay attention to safety, he turned around and entered the bedroom. Xu Mingzhi watched her fall asleep on the bed before leaving.

Xu Mingzhi's car stopped on the side of Xishi Street, and he took a taxi to the Lily Night Market.

At night, fireworks rise and people shuttle, and the Lily Night Market in the middle of the night is bustling as if it were another world.

Xu Mingzhi took a lot of effort to find the rice noodle stall that Yu Guang said, and Yu Guang, who was wearing a gray jacket, sat quietly at a folding wooden table with his back to him, as if all the hustle and bustle around him had nothing to do with him.

Xu Mingzhi walked next to him and sat down, Yu Guang raised his eyes to look at him, and said, "One hour and eight minutes, it's too slow." ”

"It's hard to take a taxi at night." Xu Mingzhi explained.

Yu Guang didn't say anything more, raised his chin towards the dining car, and said, "What to eat, order it yourself." ”

After Xu Mingzhi looked at him, he looked at the handwritten menu hanging on the dining car not far away, there were not many choices on it, Xu Mingzhi picked the most common.

"Have you eaten it?" Xu Mingzhi asked.

Yu Guang hummed in response.

He wasn't in a very good mood tonight, and his desire to speak was low.

Xu Mingzhi saw it, but he was not in a hurry. Since Yu Guang asked him out, he must have said something.

The rice noodles that Xu Mingzhi asked for soon came up, and the heat was wrapped in fragrance, which made him suddenly feel hungry. He lowered his head and blew on the hot air, and then took a bite, which was surprisingly delicious.

"It tastes good." After Xu Mingzhi praised inarticulately, the wind swept like clouds, and in a moment, this rice noodle saw the bottom.

After pushing away the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Mingzhi sighed with satisfaction, and then looked at Yu Guang and said, "What do you want to say about me when you ask me out?" ”

Yu Guang glanced at him and said, "Aren't you just waiting for me to find you?" ”

Xu Mingzhi was debunked the routine, and he didn't feel embarrassed, and said cheekily: "I can't help it, do you really look at the end of this case?" ”

Since Yu Guang had already decided to ask him out, he naturally wouldn't bother with him about this kind of thing anymore, so after considering the wording, he said: "I don't know much, and I don't know what is useful to you, I say you listen!" ”

Xu Mingzhi looked serious when he heard this, and took out his mobile phone to record, but unexpectedly, Yu Guang suddenly reached out and grabbed it, and after turning it off, he threw the mobile phone aside.

"What are you doing here?" Xu Mingzhi frowned.

Yu Guang had a cold face and said, "I still want to mix in Moon Lake City." ”

"Then I won't record, you turn on the phone and return it to me." Xu Mingzhi said, reaching out to get the phone, Yu Guang took the first step to hold it down, stared at him, and said, "You think clearly, whether you want a mobile phone or a clue." ”

Xu Mingzhi suddenly hesitated.

Occupation requires, his mobile phone cannot be turned off. But Yu Guang's words are like a sweet candy, which people can't refuse.

"Then you can turn on your phone!" Xu Mingzhi took a step back.

Yu Guang didn't buy it.

Xu Mingzhi wrinkled his brows, and after struggling for a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and said, "Is five minutes enough?" ”

Yu Guang thought for a moment and said, "Three minutes is enough." ”

"Okay, then you can say it quickly." Xu Mingzhi glared at him, and his tone was somewhat angry.

Yu Guang withdrew his hand, lowered his head and was silent for three or four seconds before opening his mouth.

"Jin Jiaojiao is a thin horse raised by Fangyuan Group......"

"What?" At the beginning of the words, Xu Mingzhi's eyes widened in surprise: "Jin Jiaojiao is a thin horse raised by Fang Kehui?" It was a far cry from what he had guessed.

Yu Guang looked at Xu Mingzhi and said, "If you do this, three minutes is not enough." ”

Xu Ming was stunned, and waved his hand helplessly: "You say, I won't interrupt you!" ”

Yu Guang continued: "Jin Jiaojiao's business ability is good, Fang Kehui has seen her a few times alone, whether there is a deeper relationship between the two people, I'm not sure." On April 29th, after she got off work from the company, she was picked up by Fang Kehui's subordinates and went to Yunman Resort, accompanied by Luo Tiancheng, the boss of Tiancheng Technology, that night. At around 12:40 p.m. on April 30, Luo Tiancheng left after lunch at the hotel. Jin Jiaojiao stayed until the morning of May 1 before leaving Yunman Resort and then went back directly to Qiaoxi Garden, and I don't know if she left Qiaoxi Garden again. The person who entrusted me to check Jin Jiaojiao was a person named Qin Chao. However, I have checked, Qin Chao and Jin Jiaojiao have no intersection, but Qin Chao is the son of a cousin of Fang Kehui's wife Yuanhua, and has been helping Yuanhua take care of a large farm in Sujiang. In addition, since you have found me before, you should have also found that I am not the only one who is following Jin Jiaojiao, but there are also two groups of people. One of them, I've been in contact with, seems to be a debt collector. As far as I know, Jin Jiaojiao's brother seems to owe a lot of money outside, and these debt collectors are likely to have something to do with her brother. Okay, that's all I know. After speaking, Yu Guang returned Xu Mingzhi's mobile phone to him.

After Xu Mingzhi took it, he quickly turned on the machine first, and then put it aside under the sight of Yu Guang. Then, he sorted out the information that Yu Guang said just now, and asked thoughtfully: "When you take the job, will you also check the situation of your employer?" ”

Yu Guang frowned and glanced at him, and after being silent for a while, he still explained: "I knew that Jin Jiaojiao went to check after she died." ”

"You just said that Qin ...... who entrusted you to follow Jin Jiaojiao Qin Chao is a relative of Fang Kehui's wife Yuan Hua, that is to say, in fact, it is Yuan Hua who wants to check Jin Jiaojiao, right? Xu Mingzhi asked again.

Yu Guang took out a pack of cigarettes, smoked one and lit it himself, and said, "This is what you guessed, not what I said." ”

Xu Mingzhi smiled helplessly, and then asked: "You just said that Jin Jiaojiao's brother owes a lot of money outside, and the debt collector came to Jin Jiaojiao, so have they been in contact?" ”

Yu Guang shook his head: "As far as I can see, no." I'm not staring 24 hours a day, though, so I'm not entirely sure. ”

"Have you seen Jin Jiaojiao's brother?" Xu Mingzhi asked again.

Yu Guang shook his head again: "No." ”

Xu Mingzhi fell silent after hearing this, frowned and pondered for a while, then raised his head and asked Yu Guang: "According to your description, you seem to think that Qin Chao's side is the most suspicious. Why? Just because the other party asked you to check Jin Jiaojiao? ”

Yu Guang pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before saying: "At about seven o'clock in the morning on May 2, the other party suddenly contacted me and said that he wanted to terminate the contract, and he also paid the full amount according to the contract. And Jin Jiaojiao died between 11 o'clock on May 1 and the early morning of May 2, right? ”

Xu Mingzhi couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this point in time is too coincidental, and it is difficult for people not to think too much.

Yu Guang also said: "Maybe it's a coincidence, but it doesn't hurt to check it out." ”

Xu Mingzhi nodded, then thought about it and asked, "You just said that there are two groups of people besides you who are checking Jin Jiaojiao, one is to collect debts, so what about the other one?" ”

"I don't know. Those people are very secretive, I don't know. Yu Guang frowned and asked Xu Mingzhi: "Listening to your tone, you don't seem to know about this?" Didn't find it? ”

There was some sarcasm in Yu Guang's tone, although Xu Mingzhi was very unconvinced, but in this matter, he had nothing to refute, so he could only nod his head aggrievedly and admit: "I didn't find out." ”

"Then you can go back and check it out." Yu Guang said and looked at the time, and said, "I've finished everything I can say, let's go!" "Then get up.

Seeing this, Xu Mingzhi got up and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Call a taxi." Yu Guang replied.

"That's together." Xu Mingzhi followed the afterglow and walked out.

Yu Guang didn't give face: "It's not a good way." ”

"All roads lead to Rome, how can it not be a good way!" Xu Mingzhi was cheeky and refused to let Yu Guang go alone, and Yu Guang had no choice but to accept his fate. However, there was still a driver in the car, which was not suitable for chatting about the case, and there was nothing else to talk about, so neither of them spoke along the way.

The afterglow that the driver sent first, when he arrived in Tianhe City, it was almost four o'clock.

When Yu Guang got out of the car, he looked at the sky, and the sky was already starting to turn a little white.

"Afterglow!" Xu Mingzhi suddenly called him behind him.

Yu Guang turned around, Xu Mingzhi was leaning against the co-pilot's window and looking at him, his face was a little serious.

"What's wrong?" Yu Guang frowned slightly.

"Thank you." Xu Mingzhi said softly.

Yu Guang was stunned, and then raised his hand to touch the frame of the mirror with some discomfort, and said, "Only this once." After speaking, looking at the smile on Xu Mingzhi's face, he couldn't help but be ashamed.

"Let's go, bye!" Xu Mingzhi didn't give Yu Guang a chance to get angry, and as soon as the words fell, the car slid out.

Yu Guang watched the taillights fade away, but those vivid expressions on his face quickly disappeared and returned to calm.

He thought that if Xu Mingzhi was not a policeman, maybe they could still be friends.

However, as soon as this thought arose, he suppressed it fiercely.

The word friend has long since disappeared from his life.
