Chapter 10 Fireworks

One day later, Yu Ye brought Xu Dongfang back to Hanchuan. It was said that Xu Dongfang had divorced his wife, and asked why.As for the night when the crime happened, he drank with Lao Li at the scrap yard all night without going anywhere, and asked the police to testify to Lao Li at the scrap yard. Lao Li confirmed that Xu Dongfang did drink and chat with him that night. , until very late, and did not go out in the middle.

Although he yelled for grievances, all kinds of evidence pointed to him. He even found the pair of men's leather shoes with herringbone pattern at his home. Xu Dongfang said that Gao Yanliang gave him the shoes because they were not suitable for wearing them.But the key tool for committing the crime was not found, the key evidence could not be mentioned, and the chain of evidence could not be closed, which really made people scratch their heads.

When Gao Zhan called, Xin Yan was scratching his head.

For the past few days, Gao Zhan has been annoyed by being too decisive when he hung up on the phone last time. It was a good intention to say it. Besides, it is not his fault, but it has been so many years. Whenever Gao Yanliang is mentioned, his mood will always turn bad. , He even thought that he could go back to take over, how could it be possible.

Gao Zhan decided that he had to see him again. Apart from apologizing, he also had a little selfishness in wanting to see him again.

Looking at the darkening sky outside, Gao Zhan dialed the phone, and the phone rang for a while before answering.

"Hello."

"Hello." Gao Zhan paused for a few seconds after finishing speaking, "Squad Xin, are you free? I would like to treat you to a meal."

Xin Yan recognized that it was him, "Wait a minute," said to Yu Ye next to him, "That's all for today, continue to search, and we'll talk when we find someone." Turning to Gao Zhan, he said, "Okay, I just happened to be hungry. "

Gao Zhan fixed a good place and sent him the address. At seven o'clock, the two made an appointment at a private restaurant. When they met, Gao Zhan frowned when he saw that he was wearing a thin jacket over a cotton T-shirt and black trousers. , sneakers, just had his hair cut, although he looked capable and neat, what made him frown was the black T-shirt, the color was changed, but the style was still the same, with a round neck and frayed edges.Gao Zhan thought, fortunately he was prepared.

Xin Yan didn't know what he was thinking, and asked after sitting down, "Why did you remember to invite me to dinner?"

Gao Zhan poured him tea, "Xin Detachment, what happened last time, I'm sorry, I didn't control my emotions well, I sincerely apologize to you, I'm sorry, please forgive me."

What?Xin Yan thought for a while, oh, last time he hung up on me so fiercely, cough, I forgot, but this person still remembers.Xin Yan hurriedly said: "It's okay, who doesn't have any emotions, who is in our business, who takes it seriously, last time a big brother from the police station in our jurisdiction worked hard for the suspect's family, but was beaten by the suspect's family After a while, what do you say?"

"Anyway, it's my fault."

"Whoever it is? I don't know who it is, I don't care, it's over."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the waiter brought in the dishes. The dishes were exquisite, with two cold and four hot, and a wild saury.

"There are fish."

Gao Zhan watched him happily move his chopsticks towards the fish, with a smile on his face, his brows were full of joy, it was completely different from the first time we met, did he like fish so much?

Xin Yan felt that it was not easy for someone to take the initiative to call. This person's posture, I guess he would not admit his mistake easily. Since he has built a step, he has to show friendliness. Xin Yan said with a smile, "That's right. , Let’s call it Xin Yan when we meet in the future, what kind of Xin detachment is awkward.” After speaking, he stretched out his hand.

Gao Zhan was stunned for a moment, "Okay, let's get to know each other again, my name is Gao Zhan." After speaking, Gao Zhan held his extended hand and stared at him, feeling that his hand was a little cold.

The two chatted while eating, and Gao Zhan noticed that he carefully avoided the onion, ginger, and garlic when eating fish.Not only that, he seems to avoid the onion, ginger, garlic and pepper in all dishes.

This meeting was different from last time, it was a meal of reconciliation, the atmosphere was relaxed, the two were chatting, Gao Zhan asked about Xin Yan.Xin Yan paused, put down his chopsticks, and talked about the difficult scripture in his family.When Xin Yan's mother and father got married, the family objected. Later, her mother recognized her father and insisted on marrying that man.After the two got married, their personalities were inconsistent, their father cheated, and they got divorced, but their mother didn't tell their family members, and her mother took him on a long trip to remarry in grief, and then her mother passed away.

Xin Yan talked about the past lightly, but her eyes wandered far away.What Gao Zhan didn't know was that for so many years, Xin Yan hadn't told anyone about it. Maybe he was facing a stranger he didn't know very well. He asked and said so, but Xin Yan knew that those people The past that has been shielded hard has always been like a shadow, and it will pierce my heart to bleed at any time.

Gao Zhan asked, "Where's your father? Have you ever looked for your father?"

Xin Yan withdrew Piaoyuan's gaze, "It is said that she remarried, has her own family, and lives well. My mother said that even if my life is not as good as a dog, don't go to him."

Well, this point is very consistent with my thoughts. If I can choose, I don't want to be Gao Yanliang's son. It seems that his situation may not be much better.

After being silent for a while, Gao Zhan suddenly asked: "Xin Detachment Team, are you married?"

"Hey, I said it's Xin Yan." Xin Yan said, this question was a bit sudden, why did you ask this, he quickly picked up his mood, wanted to find a relaxing topic, smiled lightly, with a sly light in his eyes, "Brother I'm single, but I can introduce you to my sister-in-law someday."

Oh—sister-in-law, sister-in-law?Already have a sister-in-law—Gao Zhan paused, staring at the plate in front of him and asked, "First of all, how old are you to be my brother?"

"Tsk—you, don't be dissatisfied, brother is young, don't be confused by his handsome and tender face." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to him, "Have you brought your ID card? Show it to the police uncle. "

Gao Zhan took out his ID card from his wallet, "Please." Xin Yan only glanced at it, "You lost, call me brother—"

?

"Brother 92, taste it yourself." Xin Yan had a winning expression on his face.

92, is this person 2 years older than me?And that "sister-in-law"...

Although Gao Zhan was still immersed in the pit about his sister-in-law and younger than him for the rest of the time, the two of them cleared up all their previous suspicions that day, had dinner in a friendly atmosphere, and when they returned, Gao Zhan still sent him there. At the entrance of an alley, Xin Yan was about to get out of the car, Gao Zhan asked him to wait, then took a bag of things from the back seat of the car, "Here for you."

"What?" Xin Yan took it and opened it, a pile of new T-shirts, "Hey, why give me this?"

"I sincerely apologize to you. I saw your edging last time." Saying that, Gao Zhan pointed to his collar.

"Ah, why do you have the same problem with Lao Yang, you can't get used to my old T-shirt." Xin Yan lowered his head and pulled his fringed collar, "I don't know, it's comfortable to wear like this."

Yes, but every time I see his fringe with high stained obsessive-compulsive disorder, I always want to change it for him, "Maybe I want to change it. If you don't want to wear it, you can give it away."

"Wear it and put it on, it will be comfortable in the end anyway. Thank you." While talking, Xin Yan felt a little warm in this cold night, as if no one bought clothes for him except his mother when he was a child. I have been used to being alone for many years, and suddenly being so cared about by someone feels a little uncomfortable, and there is also——so good.

"You're welcome." Gao Zhan waved at him to signal him to go in, Xin Yan said goodbye and turned to go in.

Gao Zhan watched him enter the alley, turned his head and smiled at himself, his eyes were bent into crescent moons, so bright, his smile was open, like a painting with appropriate shades in the night, the warm yellow lights reflected on both sides of the alley hit him, Traces out a shiny outline.

In this twilight, Gao Zhan heard the sound of his own heartbeat.It was a long-lost fireworks, a reassuring color, and such a real person.
