The colorful neon lights reflect the endless stream of people coming and going, the busy cars, the noisy car horns, and the cries of the vendors...all together, forming a very noisy city night scene, with handsome guys hugging each other.
There are beautiful women and thieves looking around on the side of the road, looking for the next possible prey.
Ling Jie was walking in such a night market. He was still wandering on the street until ten o'clock in the evening. He had no intention of going home. There were fewer vehicles and fewer passers-by. The roads became deserted and the weather became colder.
, the lights on the road are less and darker, the night is getting deeper, and my heart is cold...
Ling Jie never expected that Jiang Ruoli would leave without saying a word. It was said that he went to Las Vegas in the United States without even leaving a basic letter. Her room was still filled with the same atmosphere.
It was as tidy as before, and there was still a photo of him and Ling Jie on the table. In the photo, Jiang Ruoli's face was calm, with a bit of a smile. The two were walking hand in hand by the lake, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the side.
Two bright smiles reflected on the faces of the two people...
A kind-hearted taxi driver who was passing by parked his car next to Ling Jie and rolled down the window, "Hey, young man, why are you wandering alone on the street so late? This area is very dangerous all day long.
Where do you live? I'll give you a ride, free of charge."
Ling Jie raised his head and glanced at the master. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked at him kindly. Ling Jie felt that this master really wanted to help him. He was not the kind who got in the car first and then
The "black master" who robbed people. Ling Jie shook his head, "No need, I can just walk back by myself."
The master said again, "It's getting cold now. You're wearing so little clothing. It's so cold walking on the street. I'd better take you back. It's a drop-in trip anyway. Where do you live?"
Ling Jie was just about to name that community, but then he thought that after Jiang Ruoli left, that home was already in pieces and could no longer be considered a home. But other than that, where else could it be his home? After thinking about it, Ling Jie really couldn't help but think about it.
I couldn't find a place to rest.
Bingtong? It would be better to live on the street if you go to find her. You might be offended somewhere, but she will start beating her again. This woman's strength is really not great, so it's better not to offend her. Xia Tongxin? Her home is far away.
It's too far. Besides, the supermarkets are closed now. It's better to go there.
Why don't you buy some gifts or something, Jiao Jiao? Hey, forget it. Thinking of her father's trying to get her together, Ling Jie felt frightened. After thinking about it over and over, he finally thought of Zhao Beijia. Anyway, the night was not short. Let's go.
Just stay there for the night.
"Wait a minute, Master." Ling Jie took out his phone and dialed Zhao Beijia's number. The guy didn't answer the phone for a long time, and it wasn't until the seventh time that he called. Then a familiar voice came from the other side, "Hello, who are you?
Which one?"
Ling Jie quickly said, "I'm your deskmate Ling Jie, have you slept?" Ling Jie said these words quite gently.
Zhao Beijia started to get impatient, "If you have something to say, tell me quickly. If nothing happens, I'll hang up."
Ling Jie said, "I took my home key. I'm still alone on the street and have no place to stay. Why don't I stay at your house for one night? Is that okay?"
Ha! Daqing, this guy has no place to live, so he came here to stay. Hearing this, Zhao Beijia suddenly felt happy, "You can go directly to sister Ruoli, or sister Bingtong. I'm not familiar with you.
Why did you come to me? You are not welcome in my home."
After Zhao Beijia finished speaking, she suddenly felt a lot better, but the other end of the phone was silent. She didn't hear Ling Jie speak for a long time, "Hey, Ling Jie, Ling Jie, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Beijia clearly felt that the other party's tone was much colder, "In that case, forget it." Ling Jie was about to hang up the phone when he suddenly heard Zhao Beijia's voice from the other end, "Okay, okay, why are you so angry?"
, you are welcome to come."
Ling Jie said, "Where do you live? To be precise, I will come over now."
Zhao Beijia told the address, Ling Jie reported it to the driver, got into a taxi and went there. In the middle of the night, even the wind blowing into the car was cold, as cold as frost. Ling Jie seemed to enjoy the wind very much, and he took the
Open all the windows and let the cold wind blow on your face. The cold feeling seems to calm your mind a lot.
The master also noticed that something was wrong with Ling Jie's thoughts, and stopped talking after saying a few words of concern. The car became silent, and Ling Jie quietly looked out the window, looking at the trees that were rapidly receding in a line.
, her mind seemed to go back to a long time ago, Jiang Ruoli’s mobile phone number became empty, she
None of her colleagues had her contact information, and she seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden. The only thing Ling Jie was sure about now was that Jiang Ruo left Las Vegas. As for how he went there, he went by himself or someone else.
Forced to go? Or for other reasons, Ling Jie didn't know.
After ten o'clock, the road was clear, and Ling Jie quickly got off the car in a remote community. As soon as he got off the car, he saw a beautiful woman in a down jacket waiting at the door of the community, looking around from time to time. Ling Jie was far away.
He shouted, "Hello, where are you moving your eyes? I'm over here."
Zhao Beijia turned around and looked, and sure enough she saw Ling Jie with one hand in his pocket and the other waving to her, slowly walking towards her. She walked up to him, "Didn't you say you'd be here in ten minutes? Look, look, he's already thirteen now."
It’s been a few minutes, I really don’t understand you…”
Ling Jie was dumbfounded, "Being three minutes late is also called being late?"
Zhao Beijia said in astonishment, "Of course, forget it, one second is considered late. Do you know what it means if I stand here for three more minutes?"
Zhao Beijia led Ling Jie inside and said, "Assuming that I can do one big physics question in one minute, three minutes means I have to do three less big physics questions, three big physics questions..."
This was the first time Ling Jie heard such a theory. He smiled and stopped talking. In the past few months, Zhao Beijia's personality has indeed changed a lot. She has become cheerful and lively. In school, Tiantian Bingtong's sister Chang Bing
Sister Tong is short, and her screams make Ling Jie feel sour in his heart...
Zhao Beijia's home is very simple, with a commercial building of about 120 square meters on the first floor, three bedrooms and two living rooms. It is indeed comfortable for a family of three to live there. Today Ling Jie did not see Zhao Beijia's father, Zhao Junhui, the legendary Interpol, Zhao Beijia
Mom
Mother Li Li received Ling Jie very warmly. Li Li knew her daughter's character very well. Her daughter rarely got close to the students at school, but once she got close to someone, that person must be a very trustworthy person.
A very unique and outstanding person.
Li Li didn't seem to be very disgusted with Ling Jie, "Ling Jie, if you're hungry, just say so, and don't be polite."
Ling Jie took a sip of tea and said, "Thank you, Auntie. No, you should go to bed early. I'm sorry to disturb you so late."
Li Li smiled slightly and said, "Don't say that. It's a good thing for classmates to interact with each other. I have to get up early tomorrow and go to rest first. Jiajia, entertain your classmates well. Mom will go to rest first."
."
Li Li wore slippers, made Ling Jie's bed and came out to take a drink of water. Ling Jie asked, "By the way, Auntie, why didn't I see Uncle Zhao?"
When she mentioned Zhao Junhui, a deep frown immediately appeared on Li Li's face, but she soon relaxed. I have to say that this woman really knows how to control her emotions, "He is often not at home, and the children are all here."
Now that he is in college, he should have come back to spend more time with his children."
Ling Jie chuckled and said, "It is said that the people's police are like this. They often run around for others and have little time to take care of their families. Auntie, you have to understand. Uncle Zhao does a profession that ordinary people can't do." Ling Jie deliberately
He said the matter was so great, but in his heart he cursed so many policemen.
As expected, Ling Jie hit home. Li Li sighed, "He is an old antique. I haven't heard from him since he went to the United States last month. I don't know whether he is alive or dead now. He is already so old.
, he doesn’t know how to take care of himself, and he makes us worry about him, which is a disgrace to him.”
"America?" Ling Jie was stunned and said, "Did you go to Las Vegas?"
Li Li was surprised and asked, "How do you know? He has never mentioned his trip to Las Vegas to anyone except me. This is strange. How do you know?"
Sure enough, it is true, Zhao Junhui went to Las Vegas, and Jiang Ruoli also went there. Is this purely a coincidence? Or is there a connection?
"Uh..., Auntie, I just made a random guess. Haha, it's okay. Las Vegas is the most famous capital in the world. There won't be any big trouble. I believe Uncle Zhao will be back soon. Auntie, please hurry up.
Rest, and when you wake up, maybe Uncle Zhao will come back to you."
Li Li smiled when she heard this but didn't say anything. She smiled and went back to the room. She repeatedly told Zhao Beijia not to neglect Ling Jie. Ling Jie felt comfortable hearing these words.
As soon as her mother left, Zhao Beijia breathed out a sigh of relief, "Ling Jie, you are so good. Even my mother was fooled by your tricks."
As soon as the parents left, Ling Jie felt a little more relaxed. He leaned back on the big sofa and took a sip of tea. "You are pretty good at making tea. Who taught you this?"
Ling Jie's tea tasting skills are still first-class. He knows exactly what kind of tea is good tea, what kind of tea is bad tea, and what method of brewing the tea tastes cool and delicious.
Zhao Beijia smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. I have been making tea for my father for five or six years. If I didn't do it twice, how could I do it?"
Ling Jie smiled, and even Zhao Beijia could see it this time. Ling Jie's smile was a little jerky, and Ling Jie's voice seemed to have a touch of sadness, "Zhao Beijia, do you know what your father's real occupation is?"
?”
Zhao Beijia felt a heavy burden from Ling Jie's tone, and couldn't help but become serious, "My father is a good policeman, isn't he?"
Ling Jie smiled, "Do you know where he is from the police?"
Zhao Beijia was confused, what else does this policeman have? Aren't policemen just policemen...
