When Zhang Liangcheng came home, his wife sat on the sofa in the living room without the lights on, curled up, facing the window, motionless and silent.

He turned on the light, turned around and saw the figure on the couch, and was startled. After relieving himself, Zhang Liangcheng, who was in a bad mood, asked in an unhappy tone, "Why are you sitting here?" The lights don't turn on either. ”

His wife, Su Ke, looked back at him, with a sad and resentful look on her face: "Your brother did it, right?" ”

Zhang Liangcheng was taking off his shoes for a moment, and then suddenly raised his head to stare at her, and said, "What did my brother do, what do you mean?" ”

Su Ke laughed, laughing and laughing, tears came down.

"How long do you want to hide from me? Have you ever thought about me and Xiaoyu? Let me ask you, have you ever thought about us? The more Su Ke spoke, the more excited he became, and his voice became sharp and high.

Zhang Liangcheng stood at the entrance, looking at his emotionally excited wife not far away, and the anger that had barely been piled up just now suddenly collapsed.

He took off his glasses, pinched his eyebrows, and said softly: "I don't know, the police are still investigating." ”

Su Ke snorted coldly: "You don't know? Do you think I believe it? Five years ago, he was already ...... Do you think I don't know? ”

Zhang Liangcheng was shocked, and looked up at Su Ke in disbelief: "That incident...... How could you possibly know? ”

"Zhang Liangcheng, have you always thought I'm stupid?" Su Ke asked him rhetorically.

Zhang Liangcheng opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

"I'll ask you, what are you going to do? Do you continue to protect that demon, or do you cut off with him and draw a line! Su Ke asked.

Zhang Liangcheng furrowed his brows, hesitating and not knowing how to answer.

Su Ke stared at him for a while, and without waiting for a reply, there was a deep disappointment in his eyes, although such a result had been expected, but after many years of husband and wife, she still refused to believe that she and her son were still not as good as his younger brother after all, even if his younger brother was no longer the well-behaved and lovely boy he was back then.

"Let's get a divorce, sign the agreement now, and go through the formalities early tomorrow morning." After Su Ke finished speaking, he turned around and went to the coffee table to get the divorce agreement that had been prepared, shook his hand and threw it in front of Zhang Liangcheng: "I have already signed, we will divide the property equally, Xiaoyu belongs to me, you don't have to pay child support." After we divorce, I will change Xiaoyu's surname and then take him out of the city, since I chose your brother, I don't blame you, but I hope you will raise your noble hand and leave a way for Xiaoyu to live. After speaking, Su Ke went back to the bedroom without looking back.

Zhang Liangcheng looked down at the divorce agreement at his feet, his face pale.

After a long time, he squatted down and picked up the three divorce agreements, at this time, he still had a glimmer of hope, but when he turned to the end and saw Su Ke's name, all hope was instantly extinguished.

He knew that although his wife was gentle, she was actually stubborn in her heart, and once she decided something, ten cows would not be able to pull it back.

However, he has obviously made a choice, and he is already planning to give up Xueyi, isn't he?

He couldn't understand why he hesitated when Su Ke asked him to choose just now?

There was a knock on the door, so inopportune.

Zhang Liangcheng came back to his senses, hurriedly put the agreement aside, then put his glasses back on, adjusted his mood for a while, and then turned around and opened the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Xu Mingzhi who was wet.

His expression was cold and stiff, and he lost the casual sense of care he had before.

"I'm sorry, things have changed, I have to trouble you to come with me." Xu Mingzhi stood outside the door, looked at Zhang Liangcheng inside the door, and said expressionlessly.

In fact, he couldn't wait to punch the face in front of him at this time.

Zhang Liangcheng didn't resist, but said, "You wait a minute, I'll tell my wife." ”

"Then hurry up." Xu Mingzhi did not refuse.

Zhang Liangcheng turned around and walked to the bedroom, and when he arrived at the door, he didn't open the door directly and went in, but stood at the door and knocked on the door. Then, without waiting for a response from inside, he said directly: "I'm going to the police station now, and I'll do it with you when I come back, but you have to change the agreement, I don't want anything, it's all you and Xiaoyu, I only have one condition, I want to know where you and Xiaoyu are at any time, okay?" ”

In the bedroom, there was silence, as if no one was there.

Zhang Liangcheng stood for a while, not waiting for a response, lost and sad.

Just as he turned to leave, the door opened.

Su Ke stood inside the door, tears streaming down his face.

"Okay, okay?" She asked, choked up.

Zhang Liangcheng couldn't help but reach out and hugged her into his arms, lowered his head and buried his face in her shoulder socket, took a deep breath, and murmured softly: "Don't worry, I have already missed it once, and I won't make a mistake again and again." Wait until I get back, okay? ”

"Okay." Su Ke gently pushed him away: "Go ahead, don't make people wait for a long time." ”

Zhang Liangcheng took a deep look at him, turned around and strode towards Xu Mingzhi at the door.

Out of the door, Zhang Liangcheng followed behind Xu Mingzhi and quickly stepped into the elevator. As soon as he entered, Xu Mingzhi said directly: "I can give you a chance now, you tell me, where is your brother?" He hasn't been back since he left Yuehe City this morning, and I think even if you don't have location software, you should know where he is, right? He raised his eyes and stared at Zhang Liangcheng reflected on the stainless steel door of the elevator, trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

Zhang Liangcheng lowered his head and was silent for seven or eight seconds before he spoke: "There is a farm on the outskirts of the southwest city, which has been closed for several years. In the past two years, he has been going there a lot. ”

Southwest suburbs? Xu Mingzhi immediately thought of the Luzhuang Reservoir, which was also in the southwest. He turned his head and looked at Zhang Liangcheng deeply: "You know the specific location, right?" ”

Zhang Liangcheng's Adam's apple rolled, and he hummed softly: "I probably know." ”

"Let's go, then." After Xu Mingzhi finished speaking, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called Lao Wang: "You find two people to drive to the intersection of the Second Ring West Road and the National Highway and wait for me." ”

Lao Wang didn't say much, and after answering, he immediately went to find someone.

About twenty minutes later, the two sides met at the intersection, and then hurried together to the place Zhang Liangcheng said.

On a rainy night, the group of two cars, after driving for about 40 minutes, finally arrived near the place Zhang Liangcheng said. It was a mountainous area, and the houses were scattered, and it was raining heavily this night, and there was not even a ghost on the road.

Zhang Liangcheng told Xu Mingzhi that he only knew the approximate location. But this 'approximate location', the range is not small, it is a rainy night, the rain is heavy and the sky is dark, if you want to find someone, just rely on them, the difficulty is not much different from the needle in a haystack.

Xu Mingzhi motioned to Lao Wang and they went around the neighborhood first, he sat in the car and didn't move, through the rearview mirror, he looked at Zhang Liangcheng, who was sitting in the back seat and looking out of the window without saying a word, after thinking about it for a while, he said: "By now, you should know very well that even if you want to protect your brother again, you can't protect it anymore." But, you still have a chance, and I can find a way to help you keep your job and minimize the impact, but you have to tell the truth and you can't hide anything, okay? ”

Zhang Liangcheng didn't move, but the hand he rested on his lap clenched silently.

"Where the hell is that farmstead?" Xu Mingzhi asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Liangcheng's mandible moved, but he said, "I really don't know." ”

Xu Mingzhi took a breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "Zhang Liangcheng, this is really the last chance I gave you, I hope you will think clearly before answering." If you are from the Commission for Discipline Inspection, you should know very well what the nature of perjury and concealment for a suspect is. I want you to think about yourself and your son. I heard that your son's grades are very good and he is expected to be guaranteed, you probably don't want to be the first stumbling block in your son's life, right? ”

I don't know if Xu Mingzhi's threat played a role, Zhang Liangcheng closed his eyes and was silent for a while, and when he opened his eyes again, he raised his hand and pointed in a direction.

"There was a fork in the road where we came before, and the fork in the road went in, about two kilometers away, and it was the farm."
