The Road Home

Chapter 22 - Monuments and tombstones (4)



The summer vacation after they were together, most of them were soaking in the town’s game hall and billiard hall.

There was no air conditioning in the summer of that time, and there were many people in the game hall, which was very boring.

The smell of smoke and sweat melted in the murky air, mixed with the deafening music of large and small game consoles, the figures were shaking, and there was a laugh from a certain corner from time to time. She was wearing shorts, sweaty and sticky under her legs, and was uncomfortable sitting. She moved for a while, thinking of a pending matter, and looked up at the person behind him: “Lu Chen?”

He passed a look and let her say.

“At the pool hall that day, why did you play billiards with me?”

There was a burst of laughter in the distance, and Lu Chen looked at him, “Who knows.”

She pulled his arm: “To be honest, did you fall in love with me at first sight?”

Lu Chen leaned his face back and whispered, “How is that possible?”

Gui Xiao turned her face red, bit her lower lip and stopped speaking, and her Majesty started a new game. When we almost lost, we were about to leave. Unexpectedly, a large box of newly purchased game coins was left in front of our eyes …

She got even more angry, grabbed her hands, and shoved it into the coin slot. Continue to lose Continue to lose.

Lu Chen didn’t care much, chatting with Haidong behind her, and occasionally bored two songs. At first I did n’t pay attention, but I lost a few rounds and sneaked my ears, and immediately she was full of emotions … until now she was able to memorize the lyrics without saying a word: “How can I fall in love with you, I I’m asking myself, I can give up everything, and it’s hard to leave today. You are not beautiful, but you are so cute, Cinderella, my Cinderella … “

Through those long years.

The car whistle sounded.

Gui Xiao looked back and saw the dark red umbrella that white light was solitary.

This instantaneous scene corresponds to the phrase “Life is like a journey, and I am a pedestrian.” It is not right. It should be said that all beings are pedestrians.

A passing driver saw their car park alone on the road and hit the brakes: “Are you helping?”

Gui Xiao seemed to be scorched by the words, and hurriedly broke away from him: “It’s fixed, it’s already fixed.”

The driver was kind-hearted, telling them to drive forward for another half an hour to see Erlianhaote. Since it is repaired, do n’t delay, the night road is not safe at all. Gui Xiao promised to see the people go, and Lu Yanchen got up, packed his luggage and tools, and went on the road.

On the last trip, Erlianhot was covered by snow. By the time they entered the city, the snow had melted.

Lu Yanchen answered the phone for a long time, but he didn’t say a few words.

“Is it my dad?” She whispered.

Lu Yanchen shook her head and annihilated her phone: “Past leadership.”

There are not many cars on the wide road. Occasionally the past few cars are Russian-made cars similar to the Beijing Jeep.

She was guessing how Lu Yanchen felt at this time, even herself, because he had stayed in Xilin Gol League for so long, and had a unique feeling for this place, especially for the city of Erlianhaote.

This is Lu Yan Chen Ding’s hotel.

After the luggage was brought into the room, he told Gui Xiao: “I made a report to leave the country before leaving, and there was a problem, and I had to go back tonight.” It was difficult for the soldier to leave the country to go to heaven, which she knew. When he went through the exit formalities, he also said that his relationship was in the same place, so that she would leave her alone and handle her.

So he said this now, Gui Xiao was worried: “Otherwise you stay in Erlianhaote, I’ll help you meet Qin Xiaonan’s mother and get the account back?”

“Come back.”

“What time do you come back?” Gui Xiao wanted to see if he wanted to sleep first or wait for him.

He looked good: “Soon.”

“Then I’ll wait for you to come back.” She sent him out.

Lu Yanchen left the hotel and drove straight to the address told on the phone.

The night breeze blew into the car through the window. In such cold weather, his blood was hot.

Guixiao is simply a blessing, but he never expected that his biggest wish before falling down into his military uniform would soon be realized. Those car thieves belong to smugglers, and the sales channels are very mature, and they also collude with overseas forces. On that day, the police initially tried a car thief. It was such a treasure that they got a report. The report went up and they just picked up the net just after the Spring Festival.

This caught an unexpectedly big fish.

The squadron leader wanted to recruit Lu Yanchen overnight to assist in the interrogation, but the other person happened to be back, so he started the trial early tonight.

Soon, Lu Yanchen drove to the place.

He drove the car to a random corner of the parking lot, got out of the car, and headed for the door on the right side of the building. Several special policemen who had cooperated in the past saw him greet him, all the way past, they were all called “Road Team”, “Road Team” …

After entering the door, someone came out from the penultimate interrogation room in the corridor and smiled and said, “This time Shun Teng touched me to catch these people, but I have to remember the work of Xunzi.”

Lu Yanchen said very lowly: “Luck.”

They whispered the details and entered the door.

There was no obvious light source in the room, and a glass in the middle separated the interrogation room and the detention room. On the other side of the glass, a row of people stood under the lights.

Lu Yanchen entered the room, and the five people sitting in the interrogation room turned back, nodded to him, and said silently.

At this time, he was all dressed in casual clothes. From top to bottom, he had unretouched and patterned trousers and sports shoes, including warm cotton clothing. Recognition, almost everyone here knows him: This is a nine-year battle in the front line. This year, just because of a major casualty, this year reported the former anti-terrorism squadron leader who asked to leave.

Briefly quiet.

They are fully prepared. If Lu Yanchen is under extreme emotions, what should he do–

After all, Lu Yanchen left the squadron because of these people. The backbone he brought out was killed and injured more than half of the night, and Lu Yanchen’s immediate superiors were just to exchange two innocent ordinary people from this group of people and use them as hostages To exchange, so far the corpse has been broken.

But Lu Yanchen was calmer than they thought.

His figure moved slightly, pulled away from the chair, and sat down, pressing the words one by one: “I’ll cooperate with you, try it.”

In the standard straddle posture, he leaned forward slightly, staring at the faces behind the glass.

It is not polite to say that Lu Yanchen and many of his men have been code-named by these extreme organizations on the Internet, expressing their heads in clear US dollars. Being “favored” by others also shows that he must have known the bones of these people. He, an “outsider”, cooperated with the investigation and did more with less.

Soon Qin Mingyu and Gao Hai arrived, silently stopped halfway behind Lu Yanchen, listening silently.

***

Three hours later, the interrogation room door was opened.

The mouth was pried open smoothly, completely unexpected, and there was worse things behind.

Lu Yanchen went out without a word.

Qin Mingyu took Gao Hai to chase out: “There is still room for discussion here-“

“What a joke!” Lu Yanchen split his head and scolded, smoking cigarettes from his trouser pocket, constantly pulling one under his feet, biting the filter and lighting it, thinking carefully about the next series of preparations, “I have also I’ve only encountered it twice, none of you have experience, and how many lives are there! “It was too late to find someone who had little difference with his experience.

“just in case–“

“Nothing.”

“Would you like to leave something to your sister-in-law?”

Lu Yanchen glanced at him without a word.

Qin Mingyu simply asked knowingly. All the contents of the interrogation were highly confidential and half a word could not be revealed.

He pushed open the iron door at the end of the corridor, hopped into Qin Mingyu’s car, and tossed his car key to Gao Hai: “Send the key and let her wait for me.” They all knew the room he had booked.

Qin Mingyu also followed the car without delay, and rushed to call the team.

The car drove out.

The red lights ran all the way, Lu Yanchen was not ambiguous, only crossing the road downstairs of the hotel, looking through the front windshield to the high place, glanced, and had no time to find her room, and drove past .

There was fine sweat coming out of the palm of his hand holding the steering wheel, and his grip was too tight, but as soon as he sweated, he slipped, even more tightly.

As if venting, Changming the car flute, the jeep in front was bluffed away, and the driver poked out his head and yelled: “Why! Midnight! There are two cars on this road, and you are so urged ?!”

He threw out a cold look, stepped on the accelerator, and rushed out of the night in Erlianhot.

Upstairs at this time, the room was warm as spring.

Gui Xiaoyi pulled the slippers out of the bathroom, looked at the large double bed for a few seconds, and began to change the sheets, quilts and pillowcases.

Lu Yanchen has not yet returned.

Someone was talking outside the corridor. Downstairs, there seemed to be a ballroom. These mundane murmurs were entangled with Gui Xiaojing. She waited another ten minutes, and couldn’t bear to dial his number.

“Sorry, the call you dialed is off …”

Shut down?

Looking down, it was indeed Lu Yanchen’s number, and it was dialed correctly. Dead phone?

Gui Xiao guessed wildly, and wanted to try again, and Xu Yan’s phone came in suddenly.

She picked it up, and there was a call to return, she answered: “I’m in a hurry to make a phone call, you talk short, or I’ll call you tomorrow?”

“I just want to talk to someone,” Xu said, rudely, and said in a low voice. “Binbin’s test result is not very good. It is not the same as the tumor diagnosed in China, but she has not been diagnosed yet, but This is more troublesome. Radiotherapy, which can cure tumors, but once you have this disease, the chance of recurrence is high, and the location is different every time. “

Gui Xiaojing was quiet and didn’t know what to say.

Xu Yan said a few more words, which were all pathological and diagnostic terms she could not understand.

She understood that this was a talking phone, so she pressed down her mind about Lu Yanchen and patiently sounded.

Soon someone knocked on the door.

“You’ll wait, don’t hang, I’ll open the door.” Guixiao didn’t delay for a second, threw the phone into the quilt, ran white slippers and ran to the porch, just added a heart to the door before opening it. go with.

Not Lu Yanchen, but Gao Hai?

After the door opened, the man who had a brief encounter with Gui Xiao was even more embarrassed than when she saw her last time. He stuttered for a long time and handed out a bunch of car keys: “Sister, the road team gave you.”

Gui Xiaoyi: “What about others?”

Gao Hai became increasingly guilty: “There is something, let you wait for him.”

“What’s up? When will you wait?”

“As soon as possible …” Gao Hai took a step back, staring at Guixiao with guilt, not knowing what to say, she couldn’t say anything at all.

The road team never confessed. In the past, they were born and died, and none of their family members were with them. How could they comfort people? The big and small guys had been stunned for half a minute without thinking of any countermeasures. Besides, Gao Hai himself is very messy, the situation is too complicated and dangerous, his brain is about to explode, he is not as calm as Lu Yanchen–

Gui Xiaoben was worried because he was shutting down, and he got the car key inexplicably, and the key deliverer refused to say a half more words, and became more panicked: “… Is something wrong?”

“Sister-in-law,” Gao Haidun said for a moment, exhaling, “you take care.”

She patted the car key in her hand and turned and strode.

Gui Xiao was in a hurry. He reached out to drag the person back, but he didn’t hold it: “High sea!”

Gao Hai was stopped by her, and she paused for a moment to think that the road team members had gone so risky. After nine deaths, her eyes suddenly turned red, and her head did not return. She pushed open the wooden door of the fire prevention channel and ran away.

She was stupid, seeing the wooden door crashing back, a loud noise ran through the corridor.

After standing for such a long time, I remembered it in a vague way, Xu Yan was still waiting for himself on the phone.

Back to the room, I found my mobile phone in the quilt, but I was choked when I wanted to talk, only my own continuous undulating breathing.

“Quiet? You need to talk later when something happens.”

My heart beats again, and I want to cry when I think about it, but I try to comfort myself and come to know, don’t think about it, what danger can a man who has taken off his military uniform have? It must be that he drank too much when he met his old comrades-in-arms, afraid he was angry.

His comrades can’t speak, each is a silly big man, and will fight against terrorism.

I do n’t know what ridiculous words have been spoken, and what words to take care of.

“Xu Yan,” Gui Xiao said in a breath. “You accompany your wife to see a doctor first, life is a matter of life, money is a trivial matter, waiting for you to return to China-“

The sound was terrifying.

“Is there something wrong with you?” The other party heard something wrong and interrupted.

“No,” Gui Xiao said with a gasp in his right hand, and breathed lightly. “Stomach hurts, I’ll hit you tomorrow …”
