Zhao Lei was arrested by Lu Li. Xue Gang was also forcibly taken away by Lu Li. Nominally, he was receiving treatment, but in reality, his freedom was restricted and he was imprisoned. The soldiers who died were also handed over to the garrison for interrogation. Lu Li cleaned up the mess with lightning speed, displaying his strong working ability. He was extremely capable.
After that, Lu Li personally escorted the three of them out of the garrison. When they walked out of the gate, it was already 4: 30 in the morning.
The sky was filled with stars, and the bright moon shone down, illuminating the gate of the garrison in white. Xiao Zheng, who had experienced a murderous plot, enjoyed the cool midnight breeze and sighed from the bottom of his heart that it was good to be alive.
The two women had already gotten into the car and were resting inside. Xiao Zheng and Lu Li stood at the gate smoking cigarettes, feeling the cool breeze on their faces, and looked at each other in silence.
After smoking a cigarette, Lu Li stared at Xiao Zheng and said hesitantly, "If I was late just now, would you have killed Zhao Lei?"
Xiao Zheng heard that and a calm smile appeared on his face. "I can't just wait for death, can I?"
Lu Li said helplessly, "I know it's tough tonight, and you've been holding it in. But if you really kill someone, things will be different. Maybe, Yan Shang is just waiting for you to kill someone. "
Xiao Zheng shrugged and handed Lu Li a cigarette. "Didn't you get here in time?"
Lu Li was speechless. He lit the cigarette and took a deep breath. "Xiao Zheng, I don't know what you've been through all these years, but I believe that you're still the same as before, and you'll never change."
Xiao Zheng mocked, "Old Lu, although I'm grateful that you saved me, you don't have to be so polite, do you? Are you jealous? "
Lu Li smiled and punched Xiao Zheng hard. "It's been so many years, and you still don't know how to talk."
"Who has nothing better to do than to talk to men every day?" Xiao Zheng pouted. "Can't you see the two beauties waiting for me?"
"F * ck," Lu Li said angrily. "You only care about the opposite sex! Get lost! "
Xiao Zheng grinned and punched Lu Li back. "Thanks, brother."
"Don't be disgusting, get lost!" Lu Li laughed. His eyes were filled with emotion.
Friends need to be courteous and exchange greetings, but brothers do not. Even though they hadn't seen each other for many years, they still maintained the tacit understanding they once had. Xiao Zheng was once his best comrade-in-arms and his most loyal brother. Whoever was in trouble, the other party was willing to sacrifice his life. This was what Xiao Zheng had done. For this, he had sacrificed his bright future and was expelled from the army. Now, Lu Jun was willing to charge and break through enemy lines for him. This was the meaning of brothers, right?
After watching Xiao Zheng get in the car, Army Commander waited until the car disappeared around the corner before he returned to the garrison.
Xiao Zheng first sent the exhausted Blue Heart home before asking where Zhang Lan lived and sending her home.
Along the way, Xiao Zheng only casually chatted with Zhang Lan, but the latter stared at Xiao Zheng's side profile with a strange expression. He wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Class Leader. In the past, you could scold and hit me whenever you wanted. What's wrong with you now? Could it be that you experienced a failed marriage and developed male phobia? "Xiao Zheng said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"I really don't understand you," Zhang Lan said with a subtle expression. "Xiao Zheng, what have you done all these years? How can you not have any psychological burden after encountering such a huge matter? "
"The most important thing in life is to be happy. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. No one knows if they will be able to open their eyes tomorrow if they close their eyes tonight. Why let things that have already happened affect your mood? "Xiao Zheng said sourly. "Class Leader, you've worked in the government for so long. Don't tell me you don't understand this logic? Even if you don't, you can watch a few Hong Kong dramas and you'll be enlightened. "
"Understanding is understanding, but being able to do it is two different things," Zhang Lan said as she rolled her eyes at Xiao Zheng. "When Tao Ying made things difficult for you last night, you had Boss Lu to help you. This morning, you were tricked by Xue Gang, and you had the help of the garrison officer. I really don't understand, how many big shots do you know? Why is everyone running over to help you and giving you help in your hour of need? "
Zhang Lan had been in the government for a few years, and it wasn't that she hadn't seen strange things. However, Xiao Zheng was able to get through the storm tonight unscathed. That wasn't a coincidence or heaven-defying luck, but real ability.
When they first met, he had left an impression of being down and out, but now, he was incomprehensible and unpredictable. Xiao Zheng was the same as when he was in school, always giving people a feeling of cynicism and omnipotence.
"Because I'm handsome," Xiao Zheng said in a deep voice. His face was full of seriousness.
"Screw you," Zhang Lan scolded with a smile. "In terms of handsomeness, you're not as handsome as that young officer just now."
"Are you interested?" Xiao Zheng asked with shifty eyes. "My brother is also single, why don't I help you matchmake him?"
Hearing that, Zhang Lan's expression suddenly changed, and her tone suddenly became cold, "I will never look for a garrison officer in my life."
Xiao Zheng was slightly stunned, and instantly understood Zhang Lan's pain.
After suffering a loss and getting injured once, Zhang Lan was probably traumatized, right? Not to mention the garrison officer, even if it was a normal man, she probably wouldn't be able to accept a normal marriage in a short period of time.
Back to work, Hua Xia needed someone like Zhang Lan, who would try his best to do practical things within the existing rules of the officialdom. At least she was much better than scum like Xue Gang and Zhao Lei.
After sending Zhang Lan downstairs, Xiao Zheng poked his head out and smiled, "Class monitor, aren't you going to treat me to a cup of coffee upstairs?"
Zhang Lan combed her hair that was messed up by the wind. She was still very young at the age of 25, and her rich experience made her more feminine than other women of the same age. Although she wasn't like Xiao Zheng, she had a unique flavor and was pleasing to the eye.
"There's a lot of trouble in front of a widow's door. Maybe next time. "Zhang Lan smiled, waved goodbye, and turned around to enter the elevator.
…
Xiao Zheng drove home slowly, but in his heart, he was scolding Ma Choi Jun for not having any sense of loyalty. This bastard was too inhumane. If it wasn't for the fact that he was the host and had the obligation to solve the problems of the guests, he would definitely have clearly explained the culprit at the food stall and drawn a clear line between him and Ma Choi Jun.
After working hard for most of the night, Xiao Zheng bought a few fried dough sticks and a cup of soy milk from a roadside stall. He was ready to go home and eat to his heart's content. Then, he would ask for half a day's leave from Boss Lin and have a good sleep.
In all honesty, Xiao Zheng definitely didn't enjoy his privileges unscrupulously because he was the second-in-command of the security department. In the past, when he was a small security guard, under special circumstances like this, Xiao Zheng would still ask for leave. He wouldn't violate the basic principle of enjoying life for the sake of work.
Xiao Zheng had always been a man of principle.
After parking the car in the garage, Xiao Zheng munched on the fried dough sticks while taking out his keys to open the door. Before he could change into slippers, Xiao Zheng was startled by a graceful and dignified female nun dressed in a sea-green dress sitting on the sofa in the living room. His scalp went numb.
