Retire from illness.
Although everyone knows that there is such a day, no one can imagine that this day will come so quickly.
Yan Xi didn't know what to say for a while, but Yu Zhu smiled as he looked at him, got up and patted his cuffs: "Go, go to your office and talk about this kidnapping case."
Then she bypassed Yan Xiu and went straight to the door of the deputy detachment captain's office that was closed not far away.
——Jiang Dian is still in the office!
Yan Xi stepped forward, rushing to hold the handle before Yu Zhu reached out and pushed the door, and smiled: "It's a pity that my office is messy. I haven't had time to clean up these days. I'm afraid I'll let Team Yu read the joke... …" As he opened the door, he half-step sideways with great skill, blocking Yu Zhu's sight.
There was a slight movement from the cabinet door, and then there was no sound.
Team Yu walked into the office.
"Isn't this pretty clean?" Team Yu laughed, then took the armchair opposite the desk and sat down, waved his hand to stop Yan Xi: "No need to make tea, I can't drink anything now, take two steps You have to listen to the doctor's advice-I am already a useless person."
Yan Xi also pulled back his swivel chair and quickly circulated around the office through the gap, before smiling: "Where, you have done so much for the establishment of Jianning City, how can you say that to yourself."
——He said this sincerely, because it was the truth.
Yu Zhu is the first female police inspector in the history of Jianning City and one of the highest-ranking female criminal investigators in the province's public security system. More than 30 years ago, she started as a field intern, did trace inspections and technical investigations, participated in anti-drug, smuggling and explosive arrests hundreds of times, and performed more than ten times. More than ten years ago, when Wei Yao, the main criminal investigation branch, sank to the police station for training, she was transferred to the deputy director of the technical investigation department as deputy head of the criminal investigation detachment to lead the criminal investigation work of the city bureau. Soon after Wei Yao came back, she was promoted to the deputy director, and she logically Mentioned the criminal investigation main branch at the disciplinary level.
If it weren't for the heart problems that were found in the previous two years, and it was even serious enough to have bypass surgery, there would be no problem for her to transfer to the deputy bureau-level leadership post.
"The hero doesn't mention the courage of the past year, so don't mention the previous things." Yu Zhu smiled, "Tell me about the kidnapping case this time. I listen to Vice Bureau Wei's opinion, and you insist. Is this not an isolated case, but a series of kidnappings?"
"Oh, that's it."
Yan Xiu was prepared to hand over the information at hand to Yu Zhu for reading. At the same time, he briefly summarized Jiang Ting’s analysis, emphasizing the kidnapper’s unusual sense of role division and ritual desire, and added: “It’s mainly Our original investigative thinking has reached a desperate situation, and it is almost impossible to move forward. The technical investigation revealed that the car rental company employed by Shen Xiaoqi was a WeChat public account that bought soft posts in the circle of friends. It only said that he did not wait for Shen Xiaoqi outside the scenic spot on the night of the incident. , The other one asked three questions, the driver of the black car has been mentioned by Xiaoma in the interrogation room for two hours; there are no doubts about why Shen Xiaoqi wanted to go to the Tianzong Mountain Scenic Area and whether he was affected by any external factors... …"
"The search and rescue personnel at the scene did not find any clues in the mountains and forests?" Yu Zhu asked.
"The trace check, the police dog, and the life detector are all available, and the search and rescue range has been pushed to the limit." Yan Xiu said, "In the primitive mountain forest this season, look for the whereabouts of the two children. It’s like finding a needle in a haystack."
Yu Zhu nodded thoughtfully.
Yan Xiu asked: "Do you think there is something wrong with our thinking of pursuing serial cases?"
Judging from Yu Zhu’s reaction, she probably considered her words before saying: "You can't say something wrong, on the contrary, it makes sense."
Yan Xi's expression is slightly loose.
"But only one thing caught my attention."
Yan Xiu: "Huh?"
"The direction you are good at is organization and interrogation. Behavior analysis is a bit too professional for you." Yu Zhu's upper body moved forward slightly, looking at Yan Xiu's eyes: "Someone in the city bureau gave you Inspiration?"
It was just a second or two. Yan Xi calmly looked back at the gaze on the other side, but countless thoughts flashed in his mind.
What is she testing?
What should I say?
"Oh, this." Yan Xiu blinked, and smiled disapprovingly: "It's really desperate, so I called my dad. Didn't our family invest in a private hospital? He should ask. Several external psychologists have been hired."
Yu Zhu thought for a moment, and finally slowly leaned back on the back of the chair:
"...Well, there is nothing wrong with doing this."
Yan Xi smiled without answering.
"My physical condition is like this, it will be a matter of time before you take the lead on your own. The criminal investigation team leader is the most important position on the front line of public security and the first barrier to confront crime. If you make a wrong judgment, many people will suffer as a result. At the same time, if it can influence your thinking, many people will get illegitimate benefits."
Yu Zhu stood up, Yan Xiu also stood up, and she paused every word if she wanted to:
"I hope that all of your decisions will be free from any external influence, even if the influence comes from the seemingly peaceful city council."
Yan Xiu: "..."
"Okay, I won't bother you with the case." Yu Zhu looked at his watch, reached out and patted Yan Xi's shoulder solemnly: "I'll go to Lu Ju's office, let's talk later."
Yan Xi wanted to say something, her lips moved, but before she spoke, she raised her hand to stop.
Yu Zhu turned around and left the office with her hands behind her back.
Yan Xiu stood behind the desk and watched her leave, his eyes flickering slightly. It took a while until Yu Zhu's footsteps completely disappeared in the hallway before he finally stepped forward and closed the concealed office door.
Then he looked at the filing cabinet: "What do you think?"
When the curtain moved behind him, Jiang Ting got out.
Yan Xiu turned his head abruptly and saw that Jiang Ting moved his stiff shoulder nonchalantly, as if he hadn't heard what Yu Zhu said just now, and only asked: "How is the case file checked?"
·
At the same time, Lu Bureau Office.
The door was knocked twice, and then Yu Zhu pushed in.
Lu Ju’s gaze stuck on the computer screen didn’t even move, he just raised his watch and shook it: "You’re late, what did you do?"
"It's nothing, I talked to Yan Xiu about this case halfway." Yu Zhu walked to the table and sat down and looked at the screen: "--You have already started to watch it?"
Lu Ju pushed the display in her direction: "Yeah."
——I saw what was playing on the screen, it was the internal surveillance video of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the time in the lower right corner was the early morning of May 8.
Hu Weisheng died on the night of drug abuse!
In the dimly lit office, only the screen was lit with a faint gleam, reflected on the dull faces of the two of them, and the four eyes showed the shaking scenes of the city bureau during the surveillance. After a long while, Team Yu took a breath and whispered: "Our Jianning City Bureau will eventually become the next Gongzhou?"
Lu Ju glanced at her and suddenly said: "Speaking of Gongzhou, I think of a person."
"Huh?"
"You and Jiang Ting, the second anti-drug detachment of Gongzhou, have co-directed several operations. What's your comment on him?"
When I mentioned this dubiously, Yu Zhu was slightly stunned: "Jiang Ting?-Isn't he dead already?"
"But it has always been said that Jiang Ting is the number one black policeman in Gongzhou." Lu Ju did not see the joy or anger on his face, and asked: "I want to hear your opinion."
"..."
Team Yu’s face was always restrained and cautious. After a long time of thinking, she slowly said: “Jiang Ting’s case analysis is indeed very powerful, but in addition to the case analysis, anything from him What he said is very unreliable... He has a very special ability, that is, he is easy to believe, and even many experienced criminal investigators can hardly escape. I have seen many criminals in my life, but he is as good as Jiang Ting The master of hiding and inducing people’s hearts is unique."
Lu Ju did not speak, and raised his fingers crossed.
Team Yu said: "I'm sure that the deaths of the deputy mayor of Gongzhou, Yue Guangping and the undercover "rivet" were all related to him."
·
The wall clock and minute hands on the wall passed in circles. Outside the office window of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, the red glow of the setting sun gradually turned into a dark night. The smell of cigarettes and instant noodles flooded the entire corridor, fully saturated everyone's lung.
Ma Xiang weakly leaned against the door frame, and symbolically patted the open door panel twice: "No, Brother Yan, the result is not ideal."
Yan Xiu sits behind the computer, Jiang Ting wears a baseball cap and sits in the file stack. Hearing that they both looked up at the same time.
"A total of 2,864 cases of missing youths were reported across the province in the past three years, of which 216 were unsolved and 19 were determined to be kidnappings. Of the 19 unsolved kidnapping cases, 11 were male hostages and 8 were females. There is no case of double kidnapping, and there has not been any ransom of more than two million yuan.” Ma Xiang threw the information summary on the desk: “As for the double kidnapping cases that have been cracked, there are 63 cases, most of them It is a relative child under the age of ten. The suspect is either squatting in a big jail or has taken a gun. It is even more unlikely that he will commit another crime."
Yan Xi took the material, and just about to open it, Jiang Ting waved at him.
Yan Xi had to go over with the materials. Jiang Ting sat and stood with him, and the two of them gathered together to look through the stack of case files.
"What's going on, I'm going to die again this way." Yan Xiu muttered, leaning forward, "What should I do next?"
"How can it be so easy to die."
"Then what's the matter?"
"..." Jiang Ting was about to turn the page, suddenly he stopped, and looked up at Yan Xiu: "This idea is definitely correct, but the screening method may be a bit problematic."
Yan Xi raised half of his eyebrows and motioned for him to continue.
"Let’s go back and work through this case again. After the six students arrived at the farmhouse, Tan Shuang took Bu Wei to pick up the wood, and Shen Xiaoqi followed behind and left a mark of the return journey so that Tan Shuang could return along the same path. Hotel. During this process, Shen Xiaoqi was alone."
Yan Xi nodded.
"We already know that the kidnappers have a better understanding of the situation of the Shen family, which is a premeditated follow-up kidnapping. However, he did not take action when the target was placed, but waited until Shen Xiaoqi rescued Buwei and Tan Shuang and left. I just kidnapped these two people."
"Wait," Yan Xiu interrupted him: "Are you trying to say that Bu Wei may be suspected of committing a crime?"
"Before the hostages were rescued, even Shen Xiaoqi himself could not completely rule out the suspicion." Jiang Ting said, "I still have this common sense."
Yan Xiu: "Hmm..."
"But let’s not mention the two hostages’ suspicion or not, just discuss the general situation. When the suspect talks with you on the phone as a “kidnapper” instead of a “executor,” he is a bit of a normal kidnapper role. The contradiction is that he didn't take the initiative to mention Bu Wei's existence, and he didn't even try to ask the government for a ransom. On the surface, Bu Wei was just a dispensable addition to him."
Jiang Ting paused, looking at Yan Xiu.
"Yes," Yan Xiu was a little baffled by him: "Because of this, we can't tell if Bu Wei is a pure hostage. If she is a victim, why the kidnappers didn't use her as a hostage to the police at all. Threat? If she is not the victim, or even one of the kidnappers, wouldn't this kind of discrimination arouse the police's suspicion more clearly?-This is too contradictory to the kidnapper’s superb anti-reconnaissance ability."
He made a lot of sense. Even Ma Xiang, who was tired not far away, listened attentively and couldn't help but move his chair closer.
But Jiang Ting shook his head and said, "Why don't you understand what I mean."
"...Hey, you guy," Yan Xi swept his backhand on his shoulders: "Don't put it here to play the puzzle, hurry up."
Jiang Ting paid no attention to the small details of Yan Xiu's hands and feet.
He said: "Bu Wei's existence is useless for the role of the kidnapper, but she was taken away. Could it be that the executioner needs her to exist?"
As if some kind of fog was lifted, the eyes of the other two people in the office changed a little.
"...Notary," Yan Xiu murmured suddenly, "A notary is usually required at the shooting scene."
Ma Xiang slapped his thigh abruptly.
"If the executioner only needs another hostage to appear as a notary, then just like in this case, the parent of another kidnapped person will not receive a blackmail call at all, and even if it is reported to the police, it will only be an ordinary disappearance case. Even ran away from home to deal with it. That is to say..."
Jiang Ting spread his hands, and Yan Xiu immediately followed his words: "——In other words, our screening target should be another disappearance that occurred in the same place and the same jurisdiction as the kidnapping case!"
Jiang Ting threw the thick pile of summaries to Ma Xiang, Ma Xiang "Hang!" He jumped up a hundred times more vigorously, turned and rushed out.
"Brother Yan! Brother Yan!" Half an hour later, Ma Xiang rushed in as he pushed the door, and slammed the material onto the table with a loud bang.
Yan Xi suddenly raised his head, Jiang Ting got up and walked over as if he had a premonition.
"On July 12th last year, a 16-year-old boy named He Liang was kidnapped in Longchang Township, Jiangyang County. The kidnappers extorted one million yuan for 72 hours. The parents pieced together to borrow one. Millions. The money was sent to the kidnapper’s designated location but no one came to take it. On the fourth day, the parents finally went to the police station to report the crime, but it was too late. The police have not found He Liang’s body yet."
Ma Xiang opened the materials and pointed to a few pages: "There are two points worth noting about this case. One is that the parents received the blood coats from the kidnappers, but the post-mortem verification is really chicken blood; the other is that although the materials are The keyword execution does not appear, but that is because the case is not in Jianning, our file is incomplete, and detailed information about the police station is missing."
Yan Xi didn't say anything, he rushed to the outside and raised his voice: "Come on!"
A red-eyed detective rushed in.
"Call the police station in Longchang Town, Jiangyang County immediately and ask them to fax over the transcript of the 712 He Liang kidnapping case last year!"
"Yes!" The detective turned and whizzed out.
Ma Xiang drew out another piece of printing paper: "According to consultant Lu’s speculation, the 110 police center in Jiangyang County received a report from the parent of another 16-year-old girl, Li Yuxin, on the same day, in the same place, and in the same jurisdiction. , Claimed that her daughter was scolded by her family for declining academic performance and disappeared, suspected to be running away from home. The grass-roots police force was tense. The police situation on July 13 did not open the case until 24 hours later, but the family went to the police station to withdraw the case on the night of the 15th. The daughter came back when she lost her anger."
Yan Xi and Jiang stopped and looked at each other.
——I'm back.
"Has this Li Yuxin disappeared afterwards?" Yan Xiu asked.
"No, but she later entered the detention center because of repeated thefts. At the same time, it is worth noting that I checked the map." Ma Xiang flipped through the densely packed paper: "Li Yuxin's Jiang Yangyi In the middle school, the Normal School Attached to He Liang's school, the two schools are separated from each other by a road, and the distance between the two schools is less than 200 meters."
The same youthful boys and girls, the door faces the door, and they are basically mixed in and out of school...
The four words "Zhi Mu Shao Ai" came up in everyone's mind at the same time.
"Jiangyang No.1 Middle School." Suddenly Yan Xiu muttered, "Although I didn't have a good class in high school... But I remember that usually the first middle school in a certain place is one of the best schools in the area. "
Ma Xiang affirmed: "Yes, Jiangyang No. 1 Middle School is quite famous. I just found them who had the top prize in the college entrance examination."
"Why did the girl who was admitted to the best high school in the local area and would be scolded by her parents because of her decline in academic performance? Why did she enter the detention center because of repeated stealing--has she ever had a history of stealing?"
"No, but it may be that there is no record left under the age of sixteen..." Ma Xiang couldn't explain, "It's quite weird."
"It may be a thief," Jiang Ting said lightly.
Yan Xi and Ma Xiang cast their sights at the same time.
"Stealism usually occurs in women. The incidence is more common in women over 15 years old and under 20 years old. Most of the symptoms are psychogenic and induced by external factors." Jiang Ting said: "If she has been a notary People’, then this may be PTSD, a manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder."
He looked a little gloomy when he said the last few words, but no one could read them clearly in the office late at night.
"Deputy Yan, the transcript you want!" The criminal police who called just now came back and rushed into the room with a hot fax that had just been sent: "I just received a fax from the Longchang Town Police Station. This is the first-hand report of the 712 case last year!"
Yan Xi's whole body was immediately excited, he split his hand and opened it, only glanced at it, and pointed to a page in the middle to show Jiang Ting.
That is the extort phone record dictated by the local police to He Liang’s parents——
"The voice said: ‘One million, one point cannot be missed. There are still seventy-two hours before execution.’"
Jiang Ting said: "That's him."
Slap!
Yan Xi and Jiang Ting gave a heavy high-five, although the latter was caught off guard and almost staggered by the slap.
"When Lao Tzu catches that grandson, I must kill him alive!" Yan Xiu was full of joy, completely ignoring his hoarse roar due to lack of sleep: "Ma Xiang will check out Li Yuxin which detention center is far away from Jianning Time drive?!"
Ma Xiang said: "Do you still need your instructions, Jiangyang County Detention Center. If the drive is fast, it will take three hours and one way, can you go?"
Yan Xi glanced at his watch, it was one fourteen in the morning.
"Go!" Yan Xiu grabbed documents, uniforms and guns like a gust of wind crossing the border: "Ma Xiang will send your consultant Lu home to rest, and ask a guy who is not on duty during the day to take me to Jiangyang and inform Lu The bureau greeted the local detention center-I want to interrogate the little girl surnamed Li overnight!"
Suddenly his hand was grabbed from behind. Yan Xiu turned his head and saw Jiang Ting solemnly said: "I will go with you."
"Your body..."
"It doesn't matter, sleep in the car." Jiang Ting replied succinctly: "The case is important."
One twenty in the morning.
The Criminal Investigation Building was lit up all night. Downstairs, Daqie lit up the red and blue police lights and rushed out of the gate of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
"Consultant Lu is still very powerful. Sure enough, this kidnapping is not a solitary case. The kidnapper's anti-reconnaissance ability and precise grasp of time can also prove from the side that he is a veteran." Although Ma Xiang was stopped by Yan Xi several times, he called him back. Going to sleep at home, but Master Ma still took the case files and followed the car, sitting on the co-pilot and slamming: "Now we only need to find Li Yuxin, this little girl must know the information about the kidnappers, at least with that pervert. Have dealt head-on..."
"Not necessarily," Jiang Ting's voice came from the back seat.
Ma Xiang turned his head: "Huh?"
Before leaving, Yan Xi grabbed a small detective named Zhang and drove him. He and Jiang Ting were nestled in the back seat. The carriage was dim late at night, and I could vaguely see Jiang Ting’s face pale because of fatigue, but he still spoke very calmly: "If Li Yuxin had dealt with the kidnapper head-on, or even saw the kidnapper’s face, why was he let go intact? Come back, this is an unexplainable question."
"Then our thinking..."
"The idea itself is correct, but there is one thing: our analysis is not based on facts, but on behavioral logical reasoning."
Ma Xiang "Huh?!" he became nervous with a cry.
"...Don't understand?" Jiang Ting asked, staring at his big, innocent eyes.
Ma Xiang honestly said: "Maybe during the day, but my current IQ is only one-tenth of the day..."
Yan Xi has been looking out of the car window since he got on the car, and didn’t know what to search for along the way. He said coldly: "Listen to him, his daytime IQ is at most 70!"
Ma Xiang frowned extremely aggrieved, Jiang Ting laughed.
"The police conduct logical analysis of suspects' behavior, just like the magical psychological portraits and micro-expression recognition in the legend, they lack scientific evidence and mainly rely on experience. Although we say that criminal investigators have practiced massive amounts of Experience is the basis of behavior analysis, but empiricism is empiricism in the end. If there is a lack of real evidence, even if the criminal psychology profile and behavior logic analysis can achieve 99% accuracy, the 1% fatal error cannot be avoided."
"For example," Jiang Ting saw Ma Xiang's serious appearance, and he was rarely interested: "You think, what is the basis for our inference that kidnapping is not an isolated case?"
"Um..." Ma Xiang hesitated: "In the 712 kidnapping, a shirt soaked in chicken blood appeared, and the execution keyword appeared. At the same time, it basically meets the premise that a man and a woman and two teenagers disappeared at the same time..."
"But we still cannot be sure that the two cases were done by the same person. If there is another group of kidnappers in this world who likes to threaten the family members of the hostages with blood suits, while watching a lot of criminal investigation dramas, they like to use the word execution, and Have some anti-investigation methods? If Li Yuxin's disappearance is really just running away from home, is it just a coincidence with 712 He Liang's kidnapping case?"
Ma Xiang is speechless.
"Moreover, there is an unexplainable part, that is why the white-tailed sea eagle's blood-soaked coat was used in the Shen Xiaoqi case, and the kidnappers extorted 200 million yuan; last year, the 712 case appeared with chicken-blood coats and one million yuan. Ransom.” Jiang Ting said, “We can’t deny that there are all kinds of coincidences in this world, and we can’t rule out the possibility of imitating crimes. Therefore, in the absence of evidence, the so-called criminal psychology portraits and behavioral logic analysis are just gorgeous paper talks. That's it."
Ma Xiang nodded silently if he realized something.
"——But Consultant Lu," he couldn't help asking after a while: "If, as you said, we really met the 1% possibility, all behavior analysis and inferences are wrong... …"
Jiang Ting did not leave him any chance of luck: "Then the two children are dead."
The compartment fell into silence, the air was slightly frozen, and even the detective who was driving could not help but shudder.
"This is normal during the detection of any case." After an unknown period of time, Yan Xiu's hoarse voice suddenly rang.
Ma Xiang looked back at him from the co-pilot.
"Criminal investigators are not gods. In the process of fighting crimes, they will inevitably be incapable of power and even make mistakes in judgment. We will pay a heavy price for this, and even leave a shadow that will never be remembered, but that is what every old criminal police It is inevitable-the most important thing is, next time we face a crime, can we stand up again with scars and shadows and go all out."
Yan Xiu's voice pauses slightly.
Beside him, Jiang Ting seemed to be aware, and glanced at him very unobtrusively.
Suddenly only heard Yan Xiu "hey": "Xiao Zhang, pull over and stop."
The driving detective didn't know why, but he moved to the side with the light and stopped slowly in front of the convenience store. As soon as the car stopped steadily, Yan Xiu pushed the door and drilled down. After a short while, he came back with a bag of things.
"Here, driving at night is refreshing." Yan Xiu handed Red Bull, coffee and snacks to the front row, and stuffed two steaming buns into Jiang Ting's hands:
"You didn't eat instant noodles at night. You are all used to it. Quickly take two bean paste bags to cushion them."
Jiang Ting was slightly startled.
Yan Xiu said: "After eating, hurry up and sleep for a while, and Ma Xiang doesn't look at the materials, and raises the spirit. When Li Yuxin is interrogated, we still have a tough battle to fight."
·
Daqi flashed his police lights on the road in the middle of the night, like a lone boat splitting the Black Sea.
Yan Xiu gathered his clothes and leaned against the rear window. He heard that Ma Xiang was chatting with Xiao Zhang from the front row. After a while, Ma Xiang tilted his head and heard a low snoring sound. ; And the sound of the plastic bags on his side hasn't stopped, it is Jiang stopped gnawing on the buns, the back seat is filled with the smell of sweet bean paste.
After a few minutes, the cat's small movements like eating are gone, and a warm weight is gradually coming from his side.
Yan Xi opened half of his eyelids, and saw that Jiang Ting's sweet buns were half eaten, and people fell asleep, and he was gradually leaning against his shoulders.
"..."
Yan Xi's arm was suddenly as heavy as a giant. After impulsive several times, he finally slowly lifted up, carefully hugged Jiang Ting's shoulder, and made him lean more comfortably in his arms.
The long road seemed endless, the carriages were slightly bumpy, and the dim yellow street lights quickly passed by from both sides.
The night of the city and the lights of Wanjia were left behind, and the city bureau building where they set off was submerged in the sea of lights. And Yuntao's treacherous case, and the dangerous and unpredictable future, seemed like the ebb under the moonlight, retreating very far at this moment.
The only thing left in the whole world is the rear seat in front of you, dark, small and private, and the warmth that calms and rises in the arms with the breath.
Yan Xiu kept his eyes open, even though he didn't know what he was looking at, he seemed to be in a dreamlike void in the dimness.
He slowly tilted his head to look at Jiang Ting.
Jiang Ting's body is softer than imagined. This is a bit beyond Yan Xiu's expectation. In his impression, the Jiang team should be thin, hard and very sharp. He didn't expect the fact to be soft as a fluffy feather. His breathing was light and well-proportioned, and the constantly sweeping street lamp shimmered his dark temples. The hair faintly exuded a good smell. Yan Xiu smelled it for a long time before he was sure it was from his own shampoo. taste.
Washing your hair every day is really particular, Yan Xi thought.
He stared at Jiang Ting's sleeping side cheek, and suddenly thought: Would a person like him have soft and delicate skin?
Yan Xi flicked Jiang Ting's forehead hair with her thumb, and flicked her bangs over and over, her soft hair constantly rubbing her fingertips. He didn't know what he was doing. This action made all sleepiness and fatigue disappeared strangely. When he reacted, his thumb had slowly moved along the corner of Jiang Ting's forehead to the cheek and the corner of his mouth. The lips kept lingering.
Yan Xi thought in a daze, it feels really strange.
I have only been together for less than two months, but it seems that I have known each other for a long, long time. For a long time, as long as I recite the existence of this surname Jiang, I feel as if there is more worry in my heart, both heavy and light, both troublesome and expectant, difficult to get rid of and do not want to leave, as if the whole person is trapped in a slimy dream. .
"You..."
Jiang Ting murmured something, but did not hear clearly, rubbing his face against Yan Xi's shoulder.
Yan Xiu's fingers stopped instantly.
The vehicle was still galloping, the back seat was bumping regularly, and Ma Xiang's unconscious shout came from the front row. I don't know how long it took, Jiang Ting curled up, as if found a more comfortable and relaxed posture in his sleep.
Yan Xi kept looking at him without blinking, until he fell into deep sleep again, his eyes were attracted by the sticky corner of his mouth-it was a rice-sized bean paste.
"..."
Yan Xiu's Adam's apple slid hard, but his saliva seemed to be dry.
He seemed to be under some kind of curse, holding his breath and raising his hand, twisting the little bean paste, and then holding his fingertips fascinatingly.
A hint of sweetness blooms in the mouth.
It's so sweet, he thought in a daze.
Suddenly at this moment, he felt something was wrong.
——Jiang Ting’s breathing stopped for a moment.
The air solidified abruptly, and no one moved. All the reactions were as if the pause button had been pressed. Only the sound of Daqi flying forward steadily was suddenly clear.
Jiang Ting didn't open his eyes, Yan Xiu's hand was hanging in the air.
I don't know how long it took before Yan Xiu asked from his lips very slightly:
"...Are you awake?"
