At the beginning of December, the heavy snow that had been brewing for half a month finally arrived.
It was also the first snow of the year.
It was freezing outside, but it was as warm as spring indoors. This was Jiangcheng. The heating system in the north was really a great invention, much better than the stove and fire bed in the past.
"Don't open the door when a stranger knocks. It should be me. Don't open the door when anyone knocks. Just pretend that there's no one at home, even if it's my dad."
Xu Qing tidied up his clothes and instructed. Jiang He sat in front of the computer, engrossed in the game, not knowing if he heard it.
"Did you hear that?"
"Yes."
"Then I'm going out. If I'm hungry, I'll cook for myself."
He looked at the falling snow outside the window, hesitated for a moment, then found a scarf to wear. He instructed again and walked out when Jiang He was getting impatient.
It was like raising a daughter …
It was really comfortable to be an old father.
Since Jiang He came, Xu Qing's social activities had been sharply reduced. He would hide at home and play … Bah, teach Jiang He all kinds of common sense. This was a little weird in the eyes of his friends, and it was also very weird in the eyes of Xu Wenbin.
It was like a fisherman who suddenly fell in love with figurines after fishing every day. He dropped his fishing rod and played with figurines every day, changing from an outdoor enthusiast to a person who never stepped out of the house. Something was wrong.
In this regard, Xu Qing had prepared a very good and real reason: If I have a girlfriend, why would I go out and fool around with you guys?
He had not gone home yet. He planned to go over when it was time to pay the rent and see if he could fight for free rent. Today, he had an appointment with Qin Hao to go over for a meal, and at the same time, to prepare to trick that guy into becoming a mole.
Jiangcheng Square.
Xu Qing got out of the taxi and looked at the hot pot restaurant in front of him. He was about to send a WeChat message when a black Cadillac stopped in front of him. The window rolled down, and Wang Zijun held the steering wheel with one hand, the other elbow on the window edge, and raised his head proudly.
"Am I handsome?"
"…"
Xu Qing looked around. He had to admit that this rich guy was really good at acting and could afford it. "Where's your BMW?"
"If someone says I look like a nouveau riche, I'll get another one."
"Oh … sit on it and lay eggs?"
Wang Zijun shrugged, reversed the car, and parked it. Then, he jumped out of the car. It was only December, and it was already unbearably cold.
"But why did you pick such a day? Isn't it better to stay at home and hug your girlfriend when it's snowing?" he complained.
"Rat doesn't have a girlfriend."
"Oh, that's right."
Wang Zijun laughed, but before he could say anything, he heard Xu Qing continue, "That's why his kidneys are good and he can resist the cold, unlike you, who only has a runny nose."
"Come up! This way! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them heard Qin Hao's loud voice coming from above their heads. They looked up and saw Qin Hao leaning out of the window on the second floor, waving his hand. It was true. He was only wearing a thin shirt, and he was leaning against the window and exhaling cold mist.
"Let's go, Young Master Kidney Deficiency. There's no point in being envious," Xu Qing said.
"Get lost, you're the one who's weak!"
Wang Zijun was disgusted. Who didn't know how to take off their clothes in the house?
They walked all the way to the private room on the second floor. Qin Hao was holding a teapot to rinse the cups. Xu Qing was thinking about what to say later. He took off his scarf, hat, and coat, and sat on the chair.
Jiang He's problem couldn't be solved immediately. No matter what method he used, he had to slowly grind it out and take care of all aspects.
"Have you ordered?"
"No, I'm waiting for you." Qin Hao took a sip of tea and sighed comfortably. "Where's Young Master Kidney Deficiency?"
"Going to the toilet."
Xu Qing said casually. He took the menu and casually flipped through it. "Can I drink?"
"It's okay to drink a little. It's fine as long as there's no smell of alcohol tomorrow."
"Okay, I have to drink less too. There's someone at home to take care of me."
He said in a casual tone. "By the way, you wanted to investigate me last time. What's wrong? Do you think I kidnapped and sold women?"
"Hey, don't give me that!" Qin Hao was angry and amused. "What did you want to do last time behind the police's back? I think you have a guilty conscience. Tell us honestly. "
He went back and forth several times. If Xu Qing was a normal girlfriend, there was no need for her to be so deliberate. Her words and actions revealed one thing: She had a guilty conscience.
"When did I hide it from you?" Xu Qing looked very innocent.
"Sister?" Qin Hao looked at him with a squint.
"That's a long story …"
"Hey, close the window. The heat is gone!" Wang Zijun, who had just finished urinating, came in and was immediately hit by the cold wind coming in from the window.
"Let's order. Boss, order first."
Xu Qing pushed the menu to Wang Zijun. Qin Hao got up and closed the window. Wang Zijun didn't hesitate. He ordered two plates of kidney and pushed the menu back to Xu Qing.
The three of them were in a small private room. Qin Hao was tanned and strong. Wang Zijun was skinny like a drug addict. Only Xu Qing looked like a normal person — but he was the most troublesome one.
Qin Hao knew it very well. Although Xu Qing looked nonchalant, he was probably thinking about how to make up a story in his mind.
"Don't think too much … Look, this guy became a police officer. Everyone looks like a criminal to him." Xu Qing looked at Qin Hao's thoughtful eyes and curled his lips at Wang Zijun.
"Forget it. I'll tell you. That … that girl, I've known her for a long time. She used to do odd jobs. She's quite pitiful. You've met the prince."
"Me? Oh, the one you brought last time. "Wang Zijun was stunned. He nodded and asked curiously," What's wrong? Why are we talking about this again? "
"He thinks she's a criminal."
"How do I think so? It's obvious that you have a guilty conscience. I can see it. If it were someone else, I wouldn't bother with them … "Qin Hao was uncomfortable with Xu Qing's words. He also felt that he was making a mountain out of a molehill. But when he thought of Xu Wenbin's instructions, he felt that this matter must be clarified.
This guy's mind was full of twists and turns. No one knew what he was up to.
"It's a demon. If this is in a novel, you're a brave and fearless detective, and I'm a big criminal boss. We've known each other since we were young. We have a battle of wits and courage. There's a battle of fate. In the end, you'll have to work hard to catch me and lock me up, or you'll die together.
But is this a novel now? No, I'm just an ordinary citizen, and you're just a police officer. Why do you have so much drama? You're always thinking about me breaking the law and committing crimes. Do you have nothing better to do? "
"Don't talk nonsense. Tell me, who is she?" Qin Hao couldn't be bothered to answer him.
"She has no relatives here. I felt sorry for her, so I brought her home to be my girlfriend."
"Pfft … Cough, cough, cough!"
Wang Zijun spurted out a mouthful of tea. "You … Cough, cough, cough, is this what you mean by normal?"
"Yes, is it not normal? Is it against the law to be in a relationship where both parties are willing? "Xu Qing asked.
"…"
"If it's against the law, you should have been shot a long time ago." Xu Qing stretched out his hand and made a gun gesture at Wang Zijun.
"Nonsense. Why did you say it's your sister?" Qin Hao didn't let go of the main point.
"To help her hide her identity."
"…"
Damn!
Wang Zijun was about to take another sip of hot tea, but he quickly moved the cup away from his mouth.
Is he being honest or honest?
Qin Hao narrowed his eyes. "You admit it?"
"I didn't deny it, okay?"
"Then why did you say it's normal? Which normal person would hide their identity? Do you hide it?" Qin Hao asked Wang Zijun.
"I don't hide it." Wang Zijun shook his head and turned to Xu Qing. "Do you hide it?"
"Look, he's acting up again. Didn't I say she has no relatives or friends? No. Relatives. No. Friends. " Xu Qing's tone became more serious as he glanced at them. "She's a little special, but she's not abnormal … She used to be a vagabond and did odd jobs. She doesn't even have a home, let alone an identity.
I've checked everything that needs to be checked. She was even sent to a shelter — you should know what a shelter is like. "He glanced at Qin Hao.
"…"
"So why did she hide it? It's because she doesn't want trouble. It's a waste of effort to send her to a rescue station … I still have to pick her up."
"Keep lying."
"I'm telling the truth."
"Leave it to me. We, the people's police, are helping her find her family. This is our duty," Qin Hao said.
"Don't say she doesn't have a family. Even if she does, can you force her to look for them if she doesn't want to?" Xu Qing smiled. "Why? She didn't break the law. What do you want? "
"It's not up to you to decide."
"It's up to you? Then you go and arrest her. "
"…"
