Chapter 61
After hearing Ye Pulan's words, Gu Beizhi suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.
He stood straight at the door and teased Ye Pulan, who had not yet stood up: "Captain Ye, what wish are you asking for?"
Ye Pulan stood up without caring. He spread his hands and said nonchalantly: "What else can we policemen wish for? Of course, we wish for peace and longevity."
Gu Beizhi obviously didn't believe it: "Oh"
Ye Pulan continued to explain to himself: "Of course, I also told Yue Lao that if a person has an afterlife, I would ask him to do me a favor and ask the King of Hell to give me another life in time."
Gu Beizhi obviously didn't believe it, he said: "Yue Lao is here to help you find your marriage."
Ye Pulan acted as if he had just learned something: "Oh, so the gods in heaven also have different positions. This is the first time I've heard of this."
“Do we also need to follow procedures when doing things across positions?”
Gu Beizhi didn't say anything.
Ye Pulan continued, "Fortunately, I prayed early. When I die, maybe Yue Lao would have asked the King of Hell to add my name to the Book of Life and Death."
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to put his elbow on Gu Beizhi's shoulder, and continued: "You said that even if Yue Lao's legs and feet are not good, he can still contact the King of Hell after walking for fifty years."
"I'm just in my early twenties now. It's not too much to insist on living to over seventy."
Gu Beizhi did not spoil the show, but said cooperatively: "Not too much."
Ye Pulan took out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and put them on, saying, "Then I will just wait for Yue Lao to arrange my next life."
Gu Beizhi joked: "You didn't tell Yue Lao what you want to be in your next life?"
Ye Pulan slapped his head and said, "Oh, I forgot."
After saying that, Ye Pulan bowed twice in front of the statue and said, "Master Yue Lao, in my next life, I can be a first-generation, second-generation, third-generation, fourth-generation, or fifth-generation rich. If that doesn't work, arrange for me to be the world's richest man, and I won't refuse."
"If you really don't have that much ability, just let me be a celebrity in my next life and make a lot of money. As long as I have more money than I can spend, I can accept any industry and will definitely obey the adjustment."
Gu Beizhi: “That’s all.”
Ye Pulan: “Yeah.”
"Let's go back to school. Song Luo is probably about to finish his exams." Gu Beizhi urged.
"Um."
-
By the time Gu Beizhi and Ye Pulan took the bus back to school, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.
It was late at night and students were coming in and out of the school gate.
Song Luo was no exception. She walked out of the school slowly with her cell phone in her hand.
At this time, the news was reporting that a shooting occurred in a foreign region, leaving 14 people dead and 2 injured at the scene. Many local criminal police came forward to investigate, but found nothing. The murderer is still outside and acting like a normal person.
Song Luo frowned, his confusion so unconcealable that he wanted to rush towards the screen.
The nearby shops are brightly lit, the aroma of all kinds of delicious food fills the air nearby, and pairs of young couples and same-sex friends gather together to stroll around the area "looking for food".
"Fuck, so handsome! Hurry up, go get his WeChat," a girl nearby said as she dragged her companion past Song Lue, adding, "He can't be from our school. I thought Jiang Aichen was the only handsome guy in our school."
Song Luo seemed to have heard someone talk about Jiang Aichen they mentioned before.
She happened to look up and saw a lot of people standing on the transparent glass door of a barbecue restaurant.
There are both men and women.
Song Luo didn't want to join in the fun, but when he looked up, he saw two familiar faces in the dim light.
It seemed like they were arguing. One of the men, wearing sunglasses on his head, was holding a pair of scissors and was about to cut into the meat. The other person tried to stop him, and the two of them fought over it, which attracted the waiter.
After being persuaded by the waiter, the man who put sunglasses on his head reluctantly put the scissors in his hand on the table.
Song Luo was stunned for a second, as if he had not expected them to suddenly appear here.
Then, as if in a good mood, she quickly put away her phone and walked over.
Not noticing her coming, the people watching at the door continued to discuss among themselves.
"Yes, these two people are Ye Pulan and Gu Beizhi from Interpol."
"Fuck, so young."
"Yes, Ye Pulan is only two or three years older than us, and Gu Beizhi seems to be even younger."
"I saw them both at the gate of our school this morning. At first I thought they were actors filming a movie."
"Who dares to film in front of the police station? Aren't you afraid of being arrested and taken to the National Security Bureau for questioning?"
"Why did they suddenly come to our school? Are there any activities in the school recently?"
"Recently, there are so many exams and there are no activities."
"Then what are these two big guys doing here?"
"Who knows?"
"Wait," a well-behaved boy in the crowd raised his hand and said, "Since they are here, can I have their autograph?"
His words seemed to open up everyone's Ren and Du meridians. Just as they were about to praise the genius of his idea, before they could open their mouths, a girl's voice sounded behind them.
"Please make way."
"oh."
A few people responded in a daze, and then consciously made way for a small path.
Song Luo had just pushed open the door of the barbecue restaurant when, as if sensing something, Gu Beizhi and Ye Pulan looked up at her in unison.
At the right moment, Ye Pulan said to Gu Beizhi beside him: "I said she would definitely come."
Gu Beizhi said to Song Luo who had just approached: "How did you know we were here?"
Ye Pulan was the first to speak: "I've told you, don't question our little girl's criminal investigation ability."
"Why are you here?" Song Luo was sitting opposite the two of them, and she said directly without any politeness.
Gu Beizhi: "Captain Ye, you pulled me here."
I mean don't ask me.
While picking up the roasted meat, Ye Pulan said calmly: "Our team is looking for new members, and the leaders asked me to come and see if there are any suitable candidates."
Gu Beizhi didn't expose him, he interrupted the topic and asked: "Have you finished the exam?"
Song Luo: "No, there is a physical fitness test tomorrow."
Ye Pulan said nonchalantly: "Your teacher didn't assign you to the boys' group."
Song Luo: "No."
Ye Pulan raised her head exaggeratedly: "Wow, he put you in the girls' group. Doesn't he know that you can beat two Gu Beizhis by yourself?"
Gu Beizhi didn't care and chuckled: "Heh."
Song Luo didn't care about the two people's teasing. She glanced at the table and said, "I want to eat beef."
"Gu Beizhi roasted your beef into a shoe horn. If you don't mind, you can eat it." Ye Pulan said, pointing to the charred beef next to him.
Um
Song Luo was puzzled: "Why did you bake it like this?"
Ye Pulan said disdainfully: "It's still Old Gu."
"He was used to being cautious abroad. When he was eating, he wouldn't let anyone come forward to help him, for fear that someone would poison him," Ye Pulan continued. "I said I would grill it, but he said the beef was raw and insisted on waiting until it was grilled black before eating it."
After saying that, he didn't forget to complain: "Do you think he is sick?"
Song Luo knew very well that this was indeed something that Gu Beizhi could do.

Later, just as Ye Pulan said, the team wanted to recruit people.
Ye Pulan was too lazy to move, so he simply put the task of recruiting people on Gu Beizhi and Song Luo.
After weighing the pros and cons, Song Luo finally selected two people, namely Shen Shuhao and Pei Jingji.
Gu Beizhi had asked her why she didn't choose Jiang Aichen, whose grades were second only to hers. Compared with Pei Jingji and Shen Shuhui, he is clearly the one who has developed in all aspects.
Shen Shuhao only knows how to draw portraits, and his physical fitness and criminal investigation skills are his weaknesses.
Pei Jingji is extremely talented in the field of forensics, but he is not good at shooting.
Although both of them have their shortcomings, compared with other students, their shortcomings are also the ceiling in the school rankings.
But they are all inferior to Jiang Aichen.
Gu Beizhi originally thought that Song Luo’s answer would be “Almighty, one is enough”, or “I am here, why do you need him?”
But she didn't say any of these reasons.
Gu Beizhi only remembered that she pondered for a long time and said: "Because not all geniuses need to be sent out to protect the world, one should also be left to protect our country."
Ye Pulan had no objection to Song Luo's choice. He just said that he should take care of the person he chose, and then went to sleep.
Later, Song Luo met Gu Xingnan when he participated in the World Taekwondo Competition.
It was amazing to see that this kid who was about to take the college entrance exam had great talent and he didn’t show any signs of stage fright during the competition.
Song Luo told him that as long as he could get into the police academy, she would choose him the next time Interpol recruited people.
She taught him Taekwondo herself.
This Taekwondo master, who has been ranked number one in the world for many years, wanted to teach him personally. Gu Xingnan, who was already extremely obsessed with Taekwondo, agreed immediately.
Seeing that his team had grown from two people to six, Ye Pulan, as the captain, naturally could not continue to be a "hands-off boss".
He clapped his hands and decided to take them camping in the African forest.
As international police officers, one of the main training contents of Ye Pulan and his colleagues is the ability to survive in the wild.
He took them to camp in the African forest, with the intention of teaching them some basic skills for survival in the wild and telling them that being an Interpol officer was not easy.
But he was completely wrong. After Song Luo's devilish training, Pei Jingji and others felt that survival in the wild was not as terrifying as Song Luo's "Deadly Three Iron Men".
It was noon. Gu Xingnan and Pei Jingji were assigned to set up tents for several people. Song Luo and Shen Shuqiu went to the forest to collect firewood. Gu Beizhi and Ye Pulan, as the team captains, were naturally not assigned any tasks.
Ye Pulan walked to the lake with a fishing rod.
Gu Beizhi, who was planning to find some odd jobs, saw him just sitting down to fish, so he walked over.
"I heard that Director Wang talked to you about the contract renewal," Gu Beizhi asked.
Ye Pulan, wearing sunglasses, answered nonchalantly: "Yes."
Gu Beizhi: “You refused”
Ye Pulan: “Yes.”
Gu Beizhi asked again: "Why?"
Ye Pulan looked up at Gu Beizhi who was standing next to him, and then he curled the corner of his lips.
He never liked being in a passive position, so he asked back: "Your contract has also expired, Director Wang has also contacted you, right?"
Gu Beizhi: “Yeah.”
Ye Pulan: "You renewed your contract"
Gu Beizhi: “No.”
After that, he added: "When Director Wang said you didn't renew your contract a few days ago, I said I needed to think about it."
Ye Pulan said casually: "Let's continue."
Gu Beizhi: “Why”
Ye Pulan: "I am worried about the little girl being alone abroad."
Gu Beizhi naturally knew who that little girl was referring to.
Gu Beizhi advised: "She still has two years left, why don't you wait for her?"
Ye Pulan sighed deeply: "No more waiting. I don't want to wait any longer."
Gu Bei didn't know what he meant by this sentence.
He knew that no one could stop Ye Pulan from making his decision.
He asked: "Before leaving, I didn't plan to say that to her."
Ye Pulan: "No, let's talk about it after she returns home."
Gu Beizhi: "What if she doesn't want to return to China after her contract expires?"
Ye Pulan said firmly: "No, she is the kind of person who will do her best for a goal."
She studied theoretical knowledge day and night, and insisted on physical training for more than five hours even on rainy days. Everything she did was to learn from him as quickly as possible and then return home.
And from the first time he saw her, he knew that her goal from beginning to end was to protect her country.
She would never give up her goal for anyone.
"Fuck, you tomboy, if you hit me again, I will fight back!" In the distance, Shen Shuhao, who was holding firewood, warned Song Lue.
"Who the hell are you calling a tomboy?" Song Lue approached, "Put down the firewood, let's go to the side and have a fight."
"Who wants to fight you?" Shen Shuhao said fearlessly, "Boss, you are too stingy. I just scared you with a bullfrog."
"Bullfrog is a must-have delicacy in many restaurants in China," Shen Shuhao continued, "You are afraid of delicious food. How can you be more timid than an ant?"
"I feel ashamed for the three of us to train with you."
As soon as Shen Shuhao finished speaking, Song Luo stepped forward and clamped his arm.
Before Song Luo could exert any strength, Shen Shuhao burst out with a heart-wrenching cry for help: "Old Ye!"
Accompanied by a sharp explosion, Ye Pulan and Gu Beizhi slowly withdrew their gaze.
Gu Beizhi, who likes to watch the fun, said: "Your two teammates are fighting, and you don't stop them"
"Young Master Shen is weak and can't take care of himself," Ye Pulan said, adding, "He can't beat him."
Definitely taking sides.
Gu Beizhi, who understood his thoughts, said: "If Shen Shuhao can beat Song Luo, you should stop him."
Ye Pulan: "If Song Luo hears what you said, you won't be able to save your arm."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was still confused: "I taught her self-defense, defense. How did she learn how to remove an arm?"
He looked up at Gu Beizhi: "You taught her Chinese medicine."
Gu Beizhi answered without blushing: "No."
Ye Pulan was puzzled: "Who did she learn this from?"
Gu Beizhi smiled: "I don't know either."
He couldn't say that Song Luo had a fight with Shen Shuhao and came to their dormitory. She looked at the Chinese medicine map of acupuncture points on the human body at the head of his bed and said, "It's quite amazing," and then she knew it.
-
It is night and the sky is full of bright stars.
Six people lay in a row on the ground. There was no noise from the city, only the chirping of insects around them.
The talkative Shen Shuhao asked: "Boss, Lao Ye, Captain Gu, how did you join Interpol before we came here?"
Ye Pulan, who was enjoying a moment of peace, groaned and said impatiently: "Why are you talking so much?"
Shen Shuhao, who had been with them for a long time, knew that in the entire team, Old Ye and his own boss had the worst tempers, but they were also the easiest to get along with.
Typical of a person who appears cold on the outside but has a warm heart.
Facing the reprimand, Shen Shuhao was not at all flustered: "Tell me about it."
Gu Beizhi was the first to speak: "Song Luo was selected by Lao Ye and I when we went to the police force. As for Lao Ye and I..."
Halfway through his words, Gu Beizhi tilted his head and said: "Why don't you just say it yourself"
"Okay," Ye Pulan said, "At the time, my mother had breast cancer and her condition was very dangerous. But my parents had divorced a long time ago, and my mother raised me single-handedly. When she got sick, I became the only one in the family who could earn money. So, in order to pay for my mother's medical treatment, when the school said I could sign up for Interpol, I came."
Shen Shuhao choked up: "But, you won't be able to see your aunt when you go abroad."
Ye Pulan looked at the stars and sighed: "As long as I know that she is receiving treatment in China and is living well, that's enough."
"Whether I can see her in person or not...is not important."
Shen Shuhao: "Where is Auntie now?"
Ye Pulan said implicitly: "It turned into a star."
Listening to all this, Song Luo tilted his head silently. She comforted him, "It's okay. I have connections in heaven. I will ask someone to take care of her."
Ye Pulan didn't ask who her connections were. He put his arms under his head and teased with a smile: "Okay, I'll rely on you."
Chen Shuhao, who was not in the situation, blinked. He turned his head and asked Song Lue beside him: "What does he mean by turning into a star? Old Ye bought a space station and launched his mother's ashes into the sky to become stars. It's not cheap. Which one is worth tens of millions?"
Sure enough, the young master’s thinking is incomprehensible to ordinary people.
Song Luo, who was feeling a little depressed, was pulled back to her senses by his words. She warned him, "If you say one more word, I'll throw you into the river."
"Look at you, why are you still threatening others?"
Shen Shuhao's dissatisfaction made Pei Jingji laugh.
Shen Shuhao: "Pei Laogou, what are you laughing at?"
Pei Jingji: "I'm laughing because I think it's good for the six of us to be like this!"
"Right, Xiaogu."
Gu Xingnan tilted his head and replied muffledly: "Yeah."
【6】
Ye Pulan's contract expires in June.
Shen Shuhui, who was standing at the airport to see him off, burst into tears.
The other five people were speechless when they saw Shen Shuhao holding Ye Pulan.
Finally, Song Luo couldn't bear it anymore. She got angry and grabbed Shen Shuhao's clothes and pulled him off Ye Pulan.
"Shut up." Song Luo warned.
"Oh." Shen Shuhao tried hard to control his emotions.
Ye Pulan tried hard to pat the clothes soaked by Shen Shuhao's tears: "You are worthy of being the eldest young master of the Shen family. You are made of water."
Song Luo looked at him and promised: "I will go back next year, too."
"Okay," Ye Pulan reached out and ruffled her hair. "I'll wait for you at the Narcotics Squad."
Song Luo: "Yeah."
Shen Shuhao, who was crying so hard, seemed to have grasped important information. He choked and said, "Old Ye, why did you switch to drug enforcement?"
As soon as he asked, Ye Pulan pointed with a few fingers.
Pei Jingji and Gu Xingnan immediately understood what he meant, and in tacit understanding, they held his shoulders and covered his mouth with one hand each.
Shen Shuhao, who still didn't understand the situation, said: "Hmm... Hmm..."
Ye Pulan took out a bottle from his pocket and handed it to Song Luo.
"What is this?" Song Lue took it and asked.
"Suicide note." Ye Pulan answered frankly.
As if he thought that what he did was unlucky, Song Luo frowned and said, "I'll burn it for you."
"Why burn it?" Ye Pulan said.
Song Luo: "Unlucky."
Ye Pulan: "What's so unlucky about leaving a suicide note? Being a police officer, how can you believe in this?"
"This is called prevention. Do you know that if you don't write it now, you will regret it when you die, young man."
After that, the airport's boarding reminder sounded.
Ye Pulan didn't linger for long: "Okay, I'm leaving now. See you in the motherland."
Song Luo: "Yeah."
See you in the motherland!
That day, the setting sun shone through Ye Pulan's body and fell on the ground, forming a slender and majestic outline.
The boy walked against the light.
In the end, he broke through the darkness and reached his heroic and glorious ending in an unknown corner.
