Chapter III Appointment

We almost touched everything at the scene, but it didn't go well. Except for the black woven bag, we didn't find any other valuable information, and even fingerprints were not found on the steering wheel.

The old policeman was obviously not satisfied with the result. At this time, his wrinkled forehead showed some sweat. He looked around from time to time, maybe he hadn't given up yet, hoping to find something he hadn't noticed.

There are more and more vehicles outside the warning line. After all, this is the main road, and there are several passers-by around the circle, watching the excitement. The old policeman put away his divergent eyes, took out his mobile phone, staggered 3 or 4 meters away from me and made a phone call.

are you afraid that I might eavesdrop? I couldn't help laughing bitterly, but I would probably do the same.

I was bored playing with plastic gloves. For a moment, a feeling of fatigue occupied my body. I didn't know when the old policeman would call. It seemed unnecessary to wait here, so I wanted to get back to my car, but I didn't take my steps. Suddenly I found that his expression changed. The wily look just now had disappeared, and instead, it was panic and anxiety.

This is the phone. Did you find anything? In such a case with no head or tail, it is estimated that anyone who is in it will become abnormal. This is the world, and unexpected things may happen at any time. Suddenly want to hide far away, what does this have to do with me?

Just as I was about to leave, the old policeman suddenly hung up in a panic and stopped me eagerly, fearing that I would disappear.

as a last resort, I had to stay where I was, drooping my head and responding weakly.

"Young man, your shoulder injury. . . It doesn't look light, "the old policeman looked at my shoulder and asked me in a shady way." That tone, that look, at best, means caring about you, at worst, it means being suspicious of you.

"Nothing, it's just a knock on the brakes, it's not serious." I lied and adjusted my clothes to avoid the wound on my shoulder being seen by him. If this comes out in one thousand, it's not that I'm afraid he'll embarrass me. Can I still be detained for it? I'm worried about the troublesome process like a foot wrap. Just explaining it is enough for me to drink a pot. After all, it's not an ordinary wound.

As expected, the old policeman was skeptical. He wanted to record something in the notebook, but he didn't write down a few words. Then he stared at me straight, as if he could see through my heart, for fear that the prey in my cage would run away again.

"Do you smoke?" The old policeman took out two cigarettes, one for me and the other for his mouth.

"Sorry, help yourself, I can't do this." I scratched my head, thinking that it is really inconvenient not to smoke. Many friends get to know each other by handing a cigarette. At this point, I feel that I am gradually exposing myself, so it is better to leave as soon as possible.

"Oh," the old policeman's eyes tilted, so he took out his lighter, lit his own, and puffed a cigarette turn calmly. It seems that I don't care what I say at all, and the atmosphere is a little dull at this time. After smoking almost half a root, I seem to give up my concern and start sorting out the materials on the spot. My eyes also shifted to other places. Suddenly, the black plastic bag full of residual limbs seemed to move, which made me suddenly excited.

I looked down at my watch. It was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. I want to remind the old policeman that he is still hungry at noon, so can he leave? But before I could say it, his appearance suddenly reminded me of Da Li, and Liu Dui, especially Da Li. His phone couldn't get through, and he hasn't responded yet. What happened? Moreover, the car accident in front of me is now full of doubts. Why did it happen to me? It's confusing Seeing the traffic passing slowly outside the warning line is like all kinds of uncertainties in life and the helplessness of going with the flow. So I didn't speak after all.

At this time, the cleaning engineering vehicle of the Transportation Bureau has arrived, and there are more and more vehicles waiting in line outside. The traffic is getting slower and slower due to congestion, and the scene seems a little anxious.

The old policeman probably thought it was getting late, so he motioned me to go, and told me to be careful on the road. He had to deal with some things with his colleagues in the Transportation Bureau before he could leave. I was a little frustrated, so I made a goodbye gesture and walked to my car.

I drove into the driveway, and before the throttle was lifted, I saw through the mirror what the old policeman was still telling the people in the Transportation Bureau. I couldn't help but feel confused. In fact, it was not easy for him. It was all the years that made people accident and smooth.

I drove carefully this time, instead of going home directly, I went to my favorite noodle restaurant to treat my stomach. It's still the same there, with retro decoration style and retro food taste. And it's not far from the city hospital. I haven't had dinner with Xiaolan for a long time.

at this time, when I turned on my mobile phone, I found that there were three missed calls, all from Xiaolan, and I immediately called back. After ringing twice, the phone was connected.

"Xiao Lan, I just saw your call. Have you eaten?"

"It's a little late. I've already eaten. Have you been at Dr. Chen's?"

"Don't mention it. After coming out of him, I met a car accident. . 。”

"what? ！” Listening to the voice, she became very upset.

So I gave her a rough account of the accident. She breathed a sigh of relief when she knew that there was nothing wrong with me. Then, I wanted to talk about the situation at Dr. Chen's in the morning. Before the beginning, she had to hang up and go to work again.

when I finished eating alone and paid the bill, I found that the cashier had changed. I didn't know until I asked that the little cashier was married.

when I got in the car, I was a little disappointed, so I turned on the stereo and wanted to listen to the radio. Unexpectedly, I dialed the frequency several times, but I couldn't find a normal radio sound. Did the radio get damaged in the car accident? Forget it, this car, like me, is injured, which is regarded as appreciate each other's.

So I turned off the stereo and went straight to my apartment. I didn't go far when my mobile phone suddenly rang, showing a local landline number.

"Hello, is this Mr. Li Xiangdong?"

"and you are? . . 。” I hesitated. It was a strange female voice on the phone, so I asked.

"This is the police service desk. Please come to our bureau immediately to cooperate with the case investigation. Please contact Officer Guo when you arrive."

what officer Guo? Degang Guo? This also limits personal freedom? Just want to ask a few more words, but there has been hung up. Obviously, this is the police call. Maybe there is a new development in the car accident case? I glanced at protective talisman hanging on the windshield, and the way he shook it reminded me that it was not that simple. Maybe I was really treated as a suspect, which made a big deal. I couldn't help cursing the old policeman.

on second thought, did you solve the case? You want to give me an explanation? But the phone clearly said to cooperate with the investigation. What medicine is sold in this gourd? In order to avoid suspicion, I turned around and went straight to the police station.

after a cup of tea, I arrived at the police station. Police stations in every place have similar facades, all in blue and white tones, which is completely different from the solemn black in American police films.

When people come to a place like this, especially those who are called, they must be scared, and there is definitely nothing good. I was different. I naturally came inside and explained my purpose. Instead of being arranged in the waiting room, I went directly to the office. I saw that there was a man in the office, and I couldn't help being stunned. This man had just met me, and I gave a wry smile, which really haunted me.

"Come on, please sit down." The old policeman offered me a seat.

since I am an acquaintance, I am not at all polite and sat opposite him. Put your hands on your knees, and look around the room first. There is actually a prize flag hanging on the wall, which is printed with the four characters "Rectify justice". It seems a little capable. In that case, why did you call me here? Obviously it has nothing to do with me.

The old policeman coughed when he saw that I didn't speak and just stared around the house.

"Guo team, what do you mean by calling me here again? Case solved? Still say. . 。” Seeing that he was going to have a cow, I spoke out my doubts.

"Xiao Li, don't worry! Actually, I asked you to come over. . 。”

"Boy, it's enough to take care of you without asking you to go to the interrogation room. Don't kiss and tell!" The old policeman didn't finish, but suddenly a few words came from behind me. Looking back, an egg shaped thing, who looked gentle, glared at me.

these words are not pleasant to hear, but in normal times, I don't care at all, but today, I suddenly lost my mind. Have I offended any fairy? The emotions that have been suppressed by me have been ignited by this counterparts. At this time, I can't stand this cowardly spirit, thinking that you are the onion, and the bully is bullying me.

I stood up, and my fists didn't feel tight.

"who are you? I wonder, what's the matter with you? " , I have no weakness, harsh voice answered. If it weren't for Lao Guo's sake, I might have shot him at this time.

"Xiao Wang, go and see the dispute case in Hutongkou. If it's not our responsibility, let them go to the police." Lao Guo wiped a desk with his right hand, as if there was something dirty on it.

The new recruit gave me a hard look and turned around and went out.

"Xiao Li, I'm sorry, young people are angry. Ignore him, let's talk about ours." As he said, Lao Guo picked up a cigarette and gave me one, suddenly remembering that I don't smoke, he grinned. "Look at my memory. . 。”

Lao Guo's attitude towards the new recruits and the way he just handed me a cigarette almost calmed my anger, and my affection for him increased a little.

But to my surprise, it seems that he didn't mention much about the car accident today, but he was very interested in me. What is this song? Come to think of it, there are only two kinds of people who have this kind of treatment, either public stars or it's a bit bad. Here and now, there is no other possibility except suspects. Obviously, I'm not the first one, so in the second one, I feel a little cold on my back.

"You can see this skill at the scene of a car accident. You were a soldier?" Lao Guo started asking about my background. There are quarrels from time to time outside.

I didn't hesitate this time. It's all here, and there's no need to hide it. I revealed the identity of the criminal police in A city.

"You said you were from the A City detachment?" , Lao Guo skip an incredible expression, originally bent back stand up immediately.

"well, I didn't want to say this at first, for fear of delaying your work, and I'm on vacation now, so I don't want to get into trouble!" I smiled slightly stiff, especially when I saw his reaction, which made me feel a little unnatural.

"understand. . . Understand, you wait for me, "Lao Guo said, and after a moment of silence, walked out of the office.

My working environment is similar to this one. I am left alone at this time. My mind is blank, and my heart is surprisingly calm. It seems that I am used to walking alone in the dark. Although the route is still vague, I will not be nervous because of it, but I will silently choose to move on in the dark.

About ten minutes later, Lao Guo came back in a panic. I stole a glance, and when I didn't look him in the eye again, his expression seemed unusually heavy. Is there something new?

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, but I'm fine. I'll let you go there and have a chance to treat you to make amends." Although my face recovered some look, I was catching people, which made me feel very surprised.

"Did you just make a phone call? Want to verify my identity? Can this still be fake? " I'm confused by his change. I suspect that he called the team.

"No, it's not. It's something else. . 。 ” Although I still have a smile on my face, I just can't hide that unnatural feeling. Lao Guo, totally changed, is hiding something from me?

I want to pry Lao Guo's mouth again. Before I could open my mouth, the recruit an egg shaped thing came in and looked at me with bitter hatred. In that way, I just hope I can leave as soon as possible.

Originally, I didn't want to stay here for a while. Now Lao Guo hangs his head and seems to be deliberately hiding, and doesn't want to say anything to me. Judging from this situation, there is really no need to stay any longer. When I walked out of the office and passed in the corridor, it seemed that the whole police station looked at me with a strange look. It's like being stripped naked and showing off in the street.

Sitting in my car and taking a long breath, I really don't understand why everything was normal at first. I drove slowly, and outside the slightly deserted window, everything was as usual, nothing special.

the brown exterior wall is really cool. I came to the community, it was afternoon, and some primary school students had gone home from school. The community suddenly became lively. I feel a little lonely more and more.

When I came to my apartment and opened the door, I met a strange thing and found a piece of paper between the door and the floor. I subconsciously looked behind me, and quickly went into the house to check every room, and no one was there.

So I picked up the paper and opened it. There were several machine-printed words on it, "Noon on June 23rd, Kitchen God, Block 4". This date is tomorrow. No signature, no contact information, no font, no content. This is for me to go to dinner at noon tomorrow, but why is it so mysterious? Is it Xiaolan? I immediately denied it, if only she could do this. But who else can she be? Could it be vigorously? He came to B city? I turned on my cell phone and dialed the powerful cell phone number.

"The subscriber you dialed is power off!" The prompt tone reminds me coldly that I can't get in touch with Dali.

then it shouldn't be vigorously. If he wants to see me, he will call me directly. He won't make trouble, and he won't turn off his phone unless the battery of his mobile phone is low. I'm too lazy to think about it. I turned on the TV and watched some boring programs. Suddenly I really hope Xiaolan can come tonight. I looked back at the door. Will Xiaolan come tonight?

I fell asleep unconsciously. When I opened my eyes again, the clock on the wall showed that it was 9 o'clock in the evening. The room was dark, and the only light came from the TV screen. I quickly turned on the light and snapped. The room was full of light, and I looked around subconsciously. I was the only one.

I ate something casually, changed the medicine for the wound, and the smell of sweat reminded me that I had to take a bath. Suddenly I felt really tired of living.

the next day, when I opened my eyes, I found myself alone in bed. What was I thinking? Obviously Xiaolan didn't come last night. So I suddenly looked forward to the appointment at noon. After washing, I changed my clothes and went to my car and went straight to the kitchen god.

on the way, I was still thinking, who wants to see me, and who is not joking? Suddenly I feel a little weak, so I came out. In fact, it's nothing to joke about. What if someone wants to hurt me? Isn't this a sheep in the tiger's mouth? I subconsciously looked at the rearview mirror several times, and there was no car following me behind.
