"Wuwuwu …" Liao Jun's mother's face was lifeless, and there was no light in her eyes. She wiped away her tears with her bark-like hands. She looked like she was going to faint in the next second.
Liao Jun hugged his mother and gently patted her back. He held the old man's shoulders and silently supported him as they walked step by step to the car parked not far away. After sending his mother and father to the car, Liao Jun said to his wife, "Help me take care of Dad and Mom."
The woman nodded slightly. Her eyes were red as she stared at the back of the man in front of her for a long time. She stood in front of the car and cried.
"Police comrade …" Liao Jun walked in front of Gu Xizhou. He had just called out to Gu Xizhou, but in the next moment, it was as if there was a fishbone stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.
He quickly wiped away the tears on his cheeks and said with a sobbing tone, "I beg you to catch the murderer! If you need anything, you can call me at any time! "
Seeing him cry so sadly, Gu Xizhou thought about his suspicion of Liao Jun just now and felt a little guilty. Perhaps the old man was too sad and made a mistake … Liao Jun didn't look like he was pretending. Of course, it was also possible that the other party was too good at pretending.
Gu Xizhou didn't dare to jump to conclusions. He nodded at Liao Jun and said, "Okay, keep the phone connected. I'll contact you if I need anything."
"Okay." With that, Liao Jun's tears fell again. He covered his mouth with his hand and cried silently at Gu Xizhou. After a while, he wiped away the tears on his cheeks and calmed himself down. He pressed his hand gently on his chest and tried hard for a long time.
Fang Zhi stood to the side and handed a tissue to Liao Jun.
He took a deep breath and seemed to be in a better mood. "Thank you. I don't want Dad and Mom to see this … They must be very sad. I'm also … very sad."
Gu Xizhou looked at Liao Jun's back as he left. He frowned slightly. It didn't seem like he was pretending to cry. Maybe he was just overthinking.
Gu Xizhou looked away from Liao Jun and turned to look at Xiang Yuan who was chatting with Si Yu. Xiang Yuan, this guy handed everything to his little disciple Li Yan. This Xiang Yuan was really shameless.
"How did you two meet?" Xiang Yuan's smile was a little strange, as if he had discovered a new world.
Sitting on the front of his Maybach, Si Yu replied, "Last time, the glass in the mall fell from a high altitude and killed someone. I met her when I went to your police station."
"Oh." Xiang Yuan had a look of sudden realization. He remembered that when Gu Xizhou was chasing two fugitives, after the fugitives were smashed to death, one of the fugitives' family members came to the police station to make a fuss. That day, he heard a few female police officers talking about a tall, rich, and handsome man handling the case.
Speaking of which … at that time, he secretly ridiculed these young ladies for being superficial. Now, he carefully looked at Si Yu.
He had to admit that this person was really good-looking. Moreover, he had a clean and unique temperament. There were many handsome people, but not everyone had a unique temperament.
It was no wonder that the young ladies at the police station were reluctant to part with Si Yu after seeing him.
"What happened after that?" Xiang Yuan gossiped.
Si Yu didn't mention anything about the mission world. Instead, he casually mentioned the case of the body hidden in cement. Hearing about the body hidden in cement, Xiang Yuan patted Si Yu's shoulder comfortingly and said in a low voice, "You really have a bad year. How much money did you lose this time?"
"Not bad," Si Yu replied nonchalantly.
Seeing that Si Yu didn't care at all, Xiang Yuan was slightly annoyed. He continued to gossip, "Oh yes, what's the situation between you and Old Gu now? You even kissed. Are you sure you're together? "
Hearing this, Si Yu lowered her eyes slightly. "He and I are just friends now. The kiss was an accident."
"An accident?"
Seeing that Si Yu had no intention of explaining, Xiang Yuan was curious. However, he didn't annoy him by asking further. Instead, he asked softly, "Then do you like Old Gu?"
"I don't know."
"You don't know?" Xiang Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Si Yu. Didn't the two of them kiss? Thinking back to Gu Xizhou's behavior, could it be that he was overthinking things?
Seeing that he was shocked, Si Yu explained, "I've never been in a relationship before."
Hearing Si Yu's words, Xiang Yuan was stunned. His gaze fell on Si Yu and he looked at Si Yu carefully from head to toe.
This dazzling figure was actually the same as Old Gu? Never been in a relationship?
Si Yu looked at Gu Xizhou, who was assigning tasks to the others. Their gazes met unexpectedly in the air and met Gu Xizhou's gaze. Si Yu and Gu Xizhou stared at each other for a full three seconds before looking away and not continuing to speak.
On the other side, Gu Xizhou walked over to Xiang Yuan and Si Yu after assigning tasks. He asked, "What are you guys talking about?"
"Nothing," Xiang Yuan said embarrassedly.
"Alright," Gu Xizhou tugged at Xiang Yuan and pointed at Li Yan, who had already taken off her white coat. He said to him, "You came here to slack off and left everything to a girl. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Xiang Yuan said, "You people from the Criminal Police Unit treat women like men and men like animals!"
Gu Xizhou glanced at him and then turned to look at Si Yu, who was sitting in the front of the Maybach.
"You haven't left yet?" Gu Xizhou walked over and spoke. Perhaps he was overthinking, but Si Yu seemed to be in a daze the moment she heard his voice.
Si Yu got up and let go of the Maybach behind him. She said casually, "Yes, you haven't eaten yet, right?"
"No …" Gu Xizhou glanced at Si Yu, seemingly unable to understand what he was trying to say.
"What do you want to eat? It's my treat. " Si Yu looked down at the time on her watch. It was already past seven o'clock. She continued, "Don't worry, I'll get my men to keep an eye on this place 24/7. I won't let anyone destroy the crime scene."
Gu Xizhou saw Si Yu's actions and also looked at the time. He looked at his colleagues around him and said, "It's already very late. Let's go home after dinner."
The policemen who were still at the scene heard Gu Xizhou's words and looked at each other. They were secretly touched. Their Chief Gu finally remembered the time!
Si Yu glanced at him and continued to ask, "What do you want to eat?"
Gu Xizhou glanced at him and didn't hold back at all. After all, he was used to taking advantage of rich people. "Just eat whatever you want upstairs. Do you mind if I bring a few of my colleagues?"
"Okay," Si Yu smiled and nodded at Gu Xizhou.
After arriving at the shopping mall, Gu Xizhou followed Si Yu to a restaurant upstairs.
Xiang Yuan went in and glanced at the menu. The corners of his mouth twitched. He lowered his voice and said to Gu Xizhou, "You call this' whatever you want '?"
"How would I know that there's no such thing as' whatever 'in this shopping mall?" Gu Xizhou said helplessly. After coming up, he realized that there were only such restaurants in this shopping mall that cost more than a thousand yuan per person.
Xiang Yuan didn't feel good about it. Some of his colleagues left, but there were still more than ten people here!
However, he saw Gu Xizhou ordering the dishes without holding back. His actions were very practiced and he didn't treat himself as an outsider at all.
After dinner, the team members took cabs and left. The remaining few girls took Gu Xizhou's car back. Everyone took the elevator side by side to the parking lot. Just as they reached the parking lot, Gu Xizhou heard the ear-piercing sound of burning tires, followed by the sound of a car crashing.
Screech — —
The sound was ear-piercing and unpleasant. Gu Xizhou saw a car that had just started moving come to a stop. A man got out of the car. Gu Xizhou recognized the middle-aged man as the new CEO that Si Yu had hired, Yuyang.
Yuyang got out of the car with a distressed look. When he looked up and saw Si Yu, he looked like a mouse that had seen a cat.
Si Yu frowned slightly. He glanced at Yuyang and asked, "What happened?"
Yuyang: "Boss Si … It's nothing. I was distracted when I started the car and accidentally broke the headlight of a Land Rover beside us."
Hearing this, Gu Xizhou instinctively looked for his car in the parking lot. His headlight … was broken …
"The headlight is broken. You can't go on the road." Si Yu clearly recognized that it was Gu Xizhou's car. "I'll send you back."
In the end, Si Yu got someone to send all the people in Gu Xizhou's car back. Gu Xizhou got into Si Yu's car.
Sitting in Si Yu's car, Gu Xizhou rubbed his forehead and said, "This is the second time. Do you have a problem with my car? I have to take a cab to work tomorrow. "
"Are you blaming me?"
Gu Xizhou did not deny it. "Yes."
Si Yu drove and asked, "You don't want to take a cab?"
Gu Xizhou rolled his eyes at him. "Nonsense."
Si Yu looked at him deeply and did not say anything. He followed the GPS to Gu Xizhou's house. When they reached the entrance of the neighborhood, Gu Xizhou looked at his house. Thinking about the problem from last night, he suddenly did not want to go home.
"Do you want a drink?" Si Yu stopped the car and suddenly asked Gu Xizhou.
Gu Xizhou looked confused. "Yes?"
"You're not in a good mood. I can accompany you."
"You can even tell?"
Si Yu smiled slightly. He looked at Gu Xizhou and said calmly, "You're not the only ones who are good at observation."
The two of them walked away from the entrance of the neighborhood and followed Si Yu. Gu Xizhou finally noticed that there was a street of bars not far from where he lived. The lights here made it seem unreal.
This place was very noisy and there were some men and women wearing revealing clothes. Gu Xizhou did not like it. Obviously, Si Yu did not like such an environment either. He raised his eyebrows slightly. He grabbed Gu Xizhou's hand and walked quickly for about ten minutes. They quickly passed through the street and arrived at the entrance of a very quiet bar. There was no one inside or outside the bar.
After Gu Xizhou walked in, the two of them ordered drinks and sat in a corner of the bar. Si Yu drank quietly with Gu Xizhou. Every time he drank, he would only take a small sip. Most of the time, he just watched Gu Xizhou drink.
Gu Xizhou was previously worried about how he would answer if Si Yu asked him why he was unhappy. However, his worries were unnecessary. Si Yu, who was drinking with him, did not ask him a single question.
Gu Xizhou's gaze only lingered on Si Yu for a moment because he noticed a man walking over with a glass of wine.
"Hello, I haven't seen you before." The man said politely. At the same time, he placed the two glasses in his hands on the table. "I'll treat you to a drink."
Si Yu glanced at him casually and pushed the glass of wine away. "No need."
The man, who was rejected by Si Yu, did not mind. He wanted to move closer to Gu Xizhou. "I live in the same neighborhood as you. I've seen you many times..."
Before the man could finish speaking, Gu Xizhou interrupted him. "I'm not interested in who you are."
"Alright." The man touched his nose embarrassedly. He did not mind being rejected. He only felt a little regretful.
After the man left, Gu Xizhou, who was sitting in a corner, stared at his glass of wine and suddenly asked Si Yu, "Are there any tools in the mission world that can revive people?"
"No." Si Yu did not hesitate and immediately answered.
Gu Xizhou was stunned when he heard Si Yu's prompt answer. In his opinion, the mission world was indeed very magical. It could even prolong the life of a dying person. In that case, it was possible to revive a person.
Si Yu glanced at Gu Xizhou and added, "As far as I know, there aren't any."
"Oh..."
Two tall figures stood in the corridor.
"Uh... Uh?" Gu Xizhou's footsteps were weak. "This is the place... 705... Thank you... for sending me back."
The man supporting him smiled. His voice was clear, but there was a hint of drunkenness in it. His eyes were slightly curved as he stared at Gu Xizhou. "You're welcome."
After Si Yu found the key on Gu Xizhou's body, he opened the door with a click. He supported Gu Xizhou outside the door.
Inside the room, Gu Zhizhi heard the commotion and turned to look at the two people standing at the door. His eyes were deep and unreadable. He sat quietly on the sofa and watched the man support Gu Xizhou into the room.
After a while, the man walked out of the room. He took out his phone and made a call.
"Yes. Get someone to drive over and pick me up. I drank some wine."
Gu Zhizhi sat on the sofa next to the man and studied him carefully. He recognized him at a glance. This was his friend from school, Si Yaoxing. He was also the Si Yu that Gu Xizhou went to look for every time.
Si Yu glanced at the things on the table in Gu Xizhou's living room. He noticed that there were many used notes, a few pens, and a book.
Gu Zhizhi saw Si Yu take out a bunch of keys from his bag and place them on the table. Then, he reached out to take the things on the table. He frowned instinctively. The notes and notebooks on the table were all written. It would be troublesome if Si Yaoxing saw them... His hand reached out in mid-air to grab something, but Si Yaoxing was faster than him and grabbed the notebooks.
Si Yu didn't look at the contents of the notebooks. He didn't seem interested in the conversation on the notebooks. He picked up the pen and wrote something on the notebooks.
Gu Zhizhi moved his head closer. It said, "My car is downstairs. Return it to me when your car is fixed."
The car broke down?
The expression of the ghost in the house changed slightly.
In less than 20 minutes, Si Yu's car arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood. Si Yu turned to open the door and was about to leave.
Noticing Si Yu's actions, Gu Zhizhi inadvertently got up and was about to check on the hungover Gu Xizhou. He glanced at Si Yu at the door and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"Bang!"
The door closed.
In the room, Gu Zhizhi frowned. He didn't know if he was overthinking things, but when the door closed, Si Yu seemed to be looking at him...
