"?" Feng Qi looked at her right hand pointing at him in confusion, put down the hand that raised the gun, and showed her the gun in his hand: "What do you mean?"
"Never seen it? Can I lend it to you for fun?"
"..." Gu Qingjiu calmed down her excitement and expressed her judgment: "...You are a special police officer."
After she said these words, Feng Qi rarely restrained his playful expression, and stared at Gu Qingjiu with a complicated expression. After a long time, he grinned and made an unsightly smile:
"Girl, this is not funny."
"The TNH-486 model pistol can only be worn by police officers performing special tasks in China." When saying this, Gu Qingjiu returned to his usual indifferent attitude, as if there was just one person in front of her, and she
The police have nothing to do with it.
"I noticed from the first time I saw you that there are calluses on both sides of the index finger of your right hand. This is the mark left by long-term practice of pulling the trigger, but Ishii Koai will not allow anyone else except him.
Equipped with a gun, at first I thought maybe because you were more trusted by him, you were a special case."
Feng Qi lowered his head and fell into rare silence.
"so……"
"Girl——"
"Why did you hide it from me?"
"Girl, can we stop talking about this?!"
Faced with Gu Qingjiu's questioning, Feng Qi chose to escape.
Afterwards, there was a long silence between the two.
In the end, Feng Qi spoke first:
"I used to...have a sister."
"Sister, she is the only family I have left in this world."
"My father was an anti-narcotics police officer and died in the mission. My mother... was killed by those beasts."
When he said this, Feng Qi's body was shaking uncontrollably.
It was obviously in the dark night, and Gu Qingjiu couldn't even see the other person's face clearly, but she could feel:
He cried.
"My sister and I survived...and were adopted by my father's colleague. However, the fact that he is my father's colleague...only I know."
"Because after my father died... my sister suffered from mental illness and hated the police profession. She always believed that it was the police's failure to take action that led to her father's murder, but I don't believe it."
"So I went behind her back and applied for the police academy. I wanted to follow the same path that my father took, and I wanted to ask the people who worked with my father how he died..."
The moonlight shone softly on his face, and a drop of crystal flashed across Feng Qi's stubborn face.
"You..." Gu Qingjiu couldn't say anything after all. She just stayed by his side quietly and looked at him.
"Later, the day I was admitted to the police academy...it was originally a very happy thing,"
Feng Qi raised his head and looked at the dilapidated sky in the unfinished room, as if he was missing something:
"But the uncle who adopted our siblings, my adoptive father, was also killed..."
"Why do you think it was such a coincidence that we just happened to catch up...to catch up with that day..." He was so sad that he couldn't speak, and Gu Qingjiu gently stroked his back.
The young man kept worrying about gains and losses on the path he persisted on, so that in the end, any gain, in his heart, meant losing...
Therefore, he would rather no one know him or his identity. This is a kind of protection for the people he cares about.
"But now that you have made a meritorious service, don't you still want your sister to know your true identity?"
"My sister...is no longer here."
Feng Qi was silent for a long time before finally speaking.
"After my uncle left, my sister's condition got worse and worse, so I had to hide the fact that I became a police officer from her. Later..."
"During an infiltration mission, it was the same as now. It took me three years to go from a low-level gangster to a person trusted by the boss of the organization. You know... what I learned from that black boss.
Intelligence? The organization I am lurking in is the organization where my father was killed back then!"
"And my adoptive father was killed by this organization in order to avenge his father..."
"I have been engaged in ambush work, secretly delivering news to the headquarters. Every day while lurking there, I did not want to cut the people there into pieces! ... Until one day, a group of girls were sent from below."
"My sister, she's in there."
Ignoring Gu Qingjiu's shocked expression, Feng Qi was immersed in painful memories and said to himself:
"You know, she was about the same age as you at that time. She huddled in the corner like you, neither crying nor making trouble."
"But I dare not look directly at her."
"I don't know what I should tell her. Is he a lackey of the black boss? Or an undercover policeman?"
At that time, Gu Qingjiu could not quite understand his thoughts. She was in a different situation from Feng Qi. Feng Qi could not tell his sister his identity because his sister was trapped by inner demons and could not accept her identity as a police officer.
For Gu Qingjiu, although she had many identities at that time, they were all just out of interest. She had never had such a heavy burden as him.
It wasn't until later when the beasts were disbanded that she experienced firsthand what it was like to be "unspeakable".
But that's all for later.
"Later I decided to tell her the truth after everything was over."
"Obviously, I was only one step away from rescuing her... But after she learned my true identity, she couldn't bear it, collapsed and committed suicide..."
The atmosphere suddenly became peaceful again.
After a long time, Gu Qingjiu said:
"I won't."
"?" Feng Qi raised his head and looked at her with a confused look.
"I will not alienate you because of your identity." Gu Qingjiu responded solemnly:
"No matter what, you are still the annoying Feng Qi, aren't you?"
"Girl, this is what you said." Feng Qi suddenly approached her. After hearing the word "nuisance", he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Forget it, you are still young and don't understand anything..."
Gu Qingjiu frowned and looked at him.
She clearly understood that Feng Qi was afraid that she would fear him and alienate him because of his status as an undercover policeman. He had been worried about gains and losses for a long time, and he had to be so careful even when making friends.
After all, if his identity as a police officer were to be known to his friends, it would be equivalent to putting his friends in danger. Therefore, he has never had a real friend, so he refused to let Gu Qingjiu, who he regarded as a friend,
She knew his true identity, but they were "comrades-in-arms" who shared weal and woe, a friendship established in times of crisis. He had saved her life, so how could she be afraid and alienated from him just because of his identity?
Feng Qi has been in jail these years because of his sister's affairs, and he blames himself for being inferior to his identity and bringing danger and ominousness to others. However, if he didn't love the police career from the bottom of his heart, Gu Qingjiu would not see him here.
He chose to dive into danger again.
She looked at Feng Qi with some distress. Has he been alone all these years? Bearing the humiliation and burden, walking alone?
Because of his sister's death, he punished himself, but that was his sister's own choice. He was not wrong, and his sister was not wrong either. It was just fate.
Gu Qingjiu thought, if Feng Qi's parents hadn't died and his uncle hadn't died, would his sister have chosen a different path than now? Would she have blessed Feng Qi who became a policeman?
She didn't know, because just when she was thinking about this, there was a sudden "bang" and blood splashed in front of her eyes——
