"I fucking said that this kid will have trouble sooner or later, isn't he surnamed Cheng? Fuck—" You Hao cursed, looked up at Jiang Mo for a moment, and quickly twitched his mouth, " Talking about civilization, talking about civilization... This kid looks like a slut, but he is really not a good guy, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. Brother Jiang, what do we say? "

Jiang Mo was half leaning on the car, still holding the bottle of mineral water he had just finished drinking, his eyes fell on Shao Jie first.

Shao Jie raised his head keenly, looked straight into Jiang Mo's eyes innocently, and after a while, it suddenly dawned on him that he frivolously clutched the trash in front of him, murmured in a low voice, "I'm going to find a trash can", stood up and looked around. After a few laps, he took a step, and trotted into the canteen in the residential building.

Jiang Mo silently watched Shao Jie's movements, and waited until the person disappeared from sight, then squeezed the plastic bottle into a ball, and signaled Boss You, who was scratching his head and thinking about how to figure out how to say so as to avoid causing trouble to his upper body: "Really! If I want to arrest you for your achievements, I will bring people to block you, and you can still make you jump around the street like this? Don't be silly, how much do you know about Cheng Ye, tell the truth, and start from the beginning."

You Hao turned his head when he heard the words, always felt that his self-esteem was frustrated in front of this police girl and he had nowhere to hide. As soon as he raised his neck, he caught a glimpse of the crooked handcuffs on the wheel hub from the corner of his eye. The thought of tone quickly died down, and he cooperated with a smile: "Brother Jiang, look at what you said... I'm sure of that - tell the whole story, absolutely not hiding it."

"Cheng Ye came to Donglin West Road for the first time. A few bastards from the same school brought him here. It was more than two years ago."

You Hao rubbed the stubble on his chin, and recalled: "I guess I haven't been to other places before, because those little bastards dragged Cheng Ye, saying that if they want to hang out with them, they must first find a lady to help them." He fucked. But Cheng Ye quit at the time, and there was a lot of trouble in my store, and he ran away without taking off his pants. Those little bastards seemed to be afraid that he would sue the school for his parents, so they put them on the ground when they went out Give him a good beating, let him behave like a man with his tail between his legs, don't make trouble, just keep his mouth shut."

You Hao paused for a while while talking, and he still didn't forget to add a few words for himself, "But they were all underage at that time, I promise I didn't do this business, and then I personally - put those little kids They all went away."

"If you don't do this business, it doesn't mean you don't find a way to earn dividends for your colleagues—You Hao, we are old acquaintances, and we are making up nonsense with me, without conscience?" Jiang Mo crossed his arms and sneered, suddenly thinking What, I took out my phone and flipped through a photo, handed it to You Hao for identification: "I often go to your store, do you have this child?"

"Yes, we could always see each other before last year - he was the one who took the lead in beating up Cheng Ye, but it seems that Cheng Ye came with him just once? This kid looks like he has connections and backgrounds in his family , the hair has not even grown, look at my high-spirited virtue when I speak... Brother Jiang, my arms and legs hurt, smoke slowly." Boss You took a stick of Hongtashan and pointed it, and then took another look One glance at the photo, "Hey—this kid is really called Zheng Fei? He's so brave. He even got a card in my store before, and he actually left his real name."

Jiang Mo withdrew his phone: "Did you lose a lot of regular customers during the six months when Shengdi was seized last year?"

You Hao tilted his hand holding the cigarette, shaking himself hot: "Don't dare to talk nonsense, brother Jiang, I'm really serious about doing business this year, otherwise I can smoke Huazi no matter what."

"It seems that I am blocking your old way of making money..." Jiang Mo slapped the second-hand smoke that had covered her face with the wind, brought the topic back, and said with a frown: "It was the first time Cheng Ye went to How did you become an 'old acquaintance' in your store?"

"Hey, don't dare, don't dare——later, that kid sneaked out to spend money on his own." You Hao first smiled obsequiously, and then raised his eyebrows, as if there were two wriggling caterpillars crawling on his face, " But at the beginning, he didn’t add any extra services. He always came to stay all night on weekends, and he would follow behind when the waiters in the store were off work, scaring our girls so much that they would tremble when they saw him. Then… ...He started to find girls to play with, and gave money very generously, but he was not very serious all the time, insisting on taking people out to play wild, this kid fucking beat people, and several times in the face Come on, a few girls in the store come back to me with bump injuries every time to protest, I can't just ignore these little money trees for the sake of a little kid, can I? Just find someone to teach this kid a lesson, and never Not doing his business."

Jiang Mo nodded slightly, and was silent for a few seconds before asking, "When was the last time he went to your store?"

"I really can't remember the exact time... probably around the beginning of spring last year, because I remember that it was still cold at night, our little girl went out with him, and she was sick for half a day when she came back. It’s been a month, and it’s all pneumonia.” You Hao smoked quickly, took a puff while speaking, and then raised his foot to crush the cigarette butt, “A few buddies on the side of Donglin West Road next to Chemical Street also did it later. Through his business, but it seems that it is because he always hurt the girl, basically he was blocked by our brothers - anyway, as far as I know, last summer's anti-pornography lasted until the end of the year, our film is real I didn't dare to do any business... From the beginning of this year to the present, I definitely haven't seen him in the store, such a person who has caused trouble, the other brothers have never mentioned it. As for those little people who come and go The place where I do my private work... I'll just..."

You Hao quickly glanced at Jiang Mo's face, hesitantly shirked and went back, and patted his chest proactively, "This... I will help Brother Jiang to find out, and I will definitely put Cheng Ye in Donglinxi What kind of sneaky business has been done in the area of ​​Luhe Chemical Street, I will ask you all clearly and clearly—" You Hao promised vowedly, his eyes rolled around, and he quietly wanted to spy on the police Internal information: "But Brother Jiang...is this kid a serious matter? The news is not complete, right? Otherwise, Brother Jiang, you wouldn't come to me in person, would you?"

Jiang Mo didn't speak, frowned slightly, and glanced at You Hao indifferently.

You Hao can't tell what this little girl's film skills are, but he trembled when he saw her face, goosebumps crawled up his arms in an instant, and put away the little abacus in his heart neatly, embarrassingly piled up Smiling, he made a gesture to sew his mouth shut: "Secret, secrecy, I understand, I understand."

"Your daughter-in-law's second child is not yet confinement, and she doesn't want to go to the detention center for two months. It's best to be honest and don't mess around."

Jiang Mo didn't talk to You Hao anymore, he kicked him away after knocking something irrelevant, and drove him back home to watch his wife and children warm up the kang.She sighed heavily, first bent down and removed the basically useless handcuffs on the wheel, got up and raised her eyes to see Shao Jie who was looking out from the entrance of the grocery store, and beckoned to him.

"Thank you for your help just now, otherwise I would have to chase out a street." Jiang Mo glanced at his watch, hurriedly picked up his shattered patience, and patted Shao Jie's delicate shoulder to express his gratitude, "Your house where?"

Shao Jie staggered from being photographed by her, his eyes turned slightly, and he landed on the field vehicle with flashing police lights, and he didn't realize what Jiang Mo meant.

"what?"

"Ah fart?" Jiang Mo couldn't get out of his ferocious state for a while, and coughed softly after shouting, "What, it's getting late, it's not safe for you and a child to stroll outside at night, Where do you live? I'll drive you back."

----

"Dongcheng... Isn't this the street behind the City Bureau? Your family lives here? It's just on the way. I'll go back to the team to deliver the car."

Jiang Mo buckled up his seat belt, first glanced at Shao Jie's mobile phone that was getting ready for navigation, then turned his head to see the 1.8-meter-long child adjust the co-pilot's seat, and pulled out a few empty plastic bottles that were jammed everywhere. While putting it away, he lowered his head and concentrated on fighting with the seat belt buckle, and turned sideways to help him, "The buckle of the co-pilot of this car was broken before, and it has been pried open, and now it is a little loose——"

Jiang Mo suddenly stopped, looked up at Shao Jie who was almost leaning against the car door and shrank back, and laughed angrily: "No, why are you always hiding? Am I so scary? I am also a people's policeman anyway. Make it look like I'm going to eat you?"

"No...it's not..." Shao Jie was dazzled by her helpless and bright smile, his whole face flushed red, and he hummed like a mosquito: "I'm sorry, Police Officer Jiang, I'm sorry for you again. Trouble..."

Jiang Mo originally planned to make a joke to ease the atmosphere, but who would have thought that this kid was serious, blinking at her with an innocent and pitiful little face—Jiang Mo was startled, as a "soft but not soft" A typical representative of "toughness", in a trance, I really feel like an old and immoral bullying children.

Jiang Mo had no choice but to sit back in embarrassment, thinking that this kid might be a bit of a stranger. While reflecting on himself, he turned the steering wheel and took a shortcut into the buildings. When he turned his head to look in the rearview mirror, he saw that the little ancestor was hesitating to speak. peeking at her.Jiang Mo paid attention to the road from the corner of his eye, and saw that the child pursed his lips for a long time to build his mind. When he was still a few blocks away from Shao Jie's residential area, he couldn't hold back: "I just wanted to ask, what do you have?" Want to talk about something?"

Shao Jie suddenly turned his head to look at her, scratched the back of his neck, as if he was still hesitating whether it was appropriate for him to ask this question.

Jiang Mo held his fingertips on the steering wheel and tapped twice, thinking for a while: "You paid Xia Yan's medical expenses in advance, right? That 'red scarf' who ran away after paying the fee?"

"How did you recognize it? 'Red scarf' is just a casual name..."

Shao Jie looked at Jiang Mo in a little surprise, touched Mei Kai's red and hot ears for the second time, and drooped his head in frustration: "Such a big mess on the Internet has nothing to do with me in the final analysis. That girl hurt too much, and I read on the news that the suspect has been pleading not guilty...but that's all I can do to help."

When the red light jumped, Jiang Mo stopped the car steadily, took a serious look at Shao Jie, and raised his eyebrows lightly.

To be honest, many people in the police force are complaining openly and secretly about this sweet pastry who unintentionally attracts flies everywhere.The media's excessive attention has shackled the police. The family members of the victims do not want to make things worse and it is difficult to cooperate. An innocent public figure who strayed into the scene of the arrest was not harsh at all.

But Shao Jie, who could take it for granted to stay out of the matter, blamed himself, which touched Jiang Mo more or less.

"Whether it's the media who make use of the topic, or the suspect who steals and rapes, you can see it every day in the police force. This is not a special case, and you don't have to label yourself as an 'eternal sinner'."

Jiang Mo silently watched the red light jump to green, thought for a moment and said softly: "The media followed suit. We are really under pressure to investigate the case. Those people are trying to gain a high ground in the public opinion by adding fuel to the flames. But is it useful? If everyone can sentence a criminal to death by opening their mouth and typing a few keyboards, what's the use of us in police uniforms?"

Shao Jie lowered his head, didn't speak, only grunted.

"How to deal with the bad guys is something we the police have to worry about. It's not entirely a bad thing to supervise and report with multiple parties. It's just that the brothers of the political propaganda and the Internet police will probably have a headache for a while... You don't have to think too much, and take care of your slightly concussed head. Just do it."

Jiang Mo smiled in relief, intending to restore his image as a caring sister when he went to the hospital to give condolences, and parked the car at the gate of Shao Jie's community, "This is it... Anyway, Xia Yan has to thank you for this matter."

Shao Jie's slightly frowned brows relaxed, and he nodded politely at Jiang Mo, pulled the door handle and pushed it, and was about to open the door and get up to go out, but the co-pilot's door stood still, and Shao Jie didn't get in. His head hit the roof of the car with a loud bang.

"Boom!"

"Ouch!"

----

"This field car is too old. I said they are not willing to drive it. It is idle in the yard. It may suddenly break down with some parts. In the afternoon, nothing happened, really."

Jiang Mo held back his joy, walked around to the co-pilot and opened the car door from the outside, watching Shao Jie get out of the car with his head in his arms and red eyes, "Why don't you lower your head and have a look? Don't fall on the ground two days ago If you haven't recovered yet, let's go to the hospital again..."

Shao Jie obediently lowered his head, and Jiang Mo covered the top of his head and rubbed it lightly twice. Before he could feel the pain, the cold fingertip temperature on his head made him shiver with numbness——Shao ​​Jie Startled, he suddenly raised his head as if thinking of something, without saying a word, just looked straight at Jiang Mo, and tilted his head thoughtfully.

Jiang Mo met his gaze inexplicably, couldn't ignore it, and was terrified by his gaze. He raised his hand and shook his fist in front of his eyes: "Are you stupid? Are you looking at ghosts?"

----

The night wind blew violently, and the moon was surrounded by layers of clouds until only a halo remained.

Shao Jie floated home in a daze, bumped into Teacher Wu who was correcting students' homework by lighting a lamp in the living room, and greeted him half-embarrassedly across a chair.

He stood silently by the dining table for a moment with downcast eyes.

The state of birth and separation between mother and son has lasted for an unknown how long. Shao Jie waited for the other party to say something casually, but the two seemed to have no emotional foundation to care for each other. In the end, it was Wu Jin who drank first. Cleared his throat with a sip of tea, put on the air of being a teacher, and waved his hand casually: "Don't keep playing with your game when you get home, read more when you have nothing to do, and go out to play in moderation, and don't see anyone all day long."

Shao Jie slightly raised his eyelids, his gaze fell on the teacup in Wu Jin's hand, and then quickly lowered it.

Shao Jie is sensitively aware that his career has been classified by his parents as an idle field until now, but he has no thoughts of rebellion and disputes at the moment, so he only responds very lightly, pulls his slippers and returns to the room, feeling angry again. He pressed the door lock and threw himself on the bed in frustration.

Wu Jin seemed to say something outside the door, but Shao Jie didn't hear clearly, pulled the pillow to cover his head, lying motionless under the quilt.

At the moment when he was on the verge of falling into a nightmare, Shao Jie was so excited that he almost jumped up from the bed, took out all the pockets on his body, threw the uncovered ID and bank card on the table, and finally touched the empty trouser pocket—— Only the old wallet with no money, no cards, and no documents did not know where it fell.

Shao Jie messed up his hair, stayed motionless for a while, and frowned tightly.

"Tsk, that's bad."
