May 1983, Zhaojiagou, Huangjia Township, Rong County, Hunan Province.
The sky was gloomy, with dark clouds gathering. The sky seemed like a low black curtain, making it hard to breathe. A bolt of lightning split the sky and struck the fields.
After the muffled thunder, raindrops as big as beans fell on the yellow earth with a crackling sound.
A burst of hurried footsteps came from the edge of the field. A man carrying a thin child on his back was running towards the village in a hurry. Several villagers followed behind him, shouting loudly.
"Hurry up and inform Zhao Erfu's family that Xiang Wan was struck by lightning!"
"Xiang Wan is dead. There's no point in sending her to the hospital."
"Why are you letting your kids out to pick pig grass on a rainy day? That's outrageous."
The child who was struck by lightning was limp, his hands were hanging by his sides and dangling, his arms were as thin as sticks, and he didn't look angry at all.
A bolt of lightning struck down, shining on the pair of drooping hands. They were thin and pale, with marks of frostbite on the back of the hands, a few new scratches on the fingertips, and dirt in the gaps between the nails. It was obvious that they were hands that worked frequently.
The entire Zhaojiagou was shocked.
——Zhao Xiangwan, the third girl of Zhao Erfu’s family, went out to collect pig grass during a rainy day and was struck to death by lightning!
As soon as everyone entered Zhao Erfu's house, they placed Zhao Xiangwan on the bamboo bed in the main hall. Looking at the little girl who was still breathless, Zhao Erfu and Qian Shufen rushed over, stroking the child's face up and down, crying and shouting: "Third sister, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you not to go out at this time? Why did you have to go out? My third sister... my poor sister..."
The extreme darkness suddenly tore open a crack, and the light shone in, and Zhao Xiangwan slowly opened his eyes.
The familiar tiled roof, with two bright tiles covered by cobwebs, still let in dim light, and the raindrops tapped on the tiles.
It turns out it’s raining.
Zhao Xiangwan's eyes moved downward, passing over the cracked beams, the award-shaped adobe walls, the old painting of the rising sun, the round mirror on the table, the feather duster in the vase...
The electric current passed through my body, and I felt as if I was torn apart. After a strong smell of burning, I lost consciousness. I didn't expect that I was not dead?
Zhao Xiangwan had just come to her senses when a figure rushed over and grabbed her hand. Her mother Qian Shufen's voice was so sharp that it could penetrate the roof: "Third sister, you're awake! It's good that you're awake, it's good that you're awake!"
At the same time, my mother's calm voice echoed in my mind, which was completely different from the joy that came from my ears.
[You are so unlucky that even thunder can’t kill you. 】
Zhao Xiangwan was distracted for a moment.
What's going on? How can there be two mothers speaking at the same time, with completely different attitudes, tones, and content?
Thanks to being neglected for a long time at home, Zhao Xiangwan didn't say a word and there was not much expression on his face. He just looked up at his mother blankly, watching her mouth open and close.
"Xiang Wan, please say something. You're really driving me crazy. Why are you running out when it's going to rain? There's no rush to collect pig grass, kid."
The other voice was completely different.
[What should we do? The new village committee director has made three big moves upon taking office. What if he makes an example of our family? We cannot afford to be accused of forcing our third sister to death or abusing her!]
At this moment, Zhao Xiangwan suddenly realized that the slightly vague voice she had just heard was the truest voice from her mother's heart.
——Is this the legendary mind-reading technique?
Zhao Xiangwan raised his eyes and looked at his mother.
There was now a hint of sharpness in those timid eyes.
Ever since she could remember, she was taught: "You are the older sister, so you should give in to your younger sister." She took the initiative to help her parents collect pig grass, wash clothes, collect firewood, and pick rice ears. She was good at all the housework that a country child could do, but no matter how hard she tried, she was never as likable as her younger sister Zhao Chenyang.
Because they were born on the same day, they are often compared by their family members.
"Don't blame me for being partial. Your hands are too rough and silky to learn embroidery."
"Chenyang can earn work points by embroidering flowers, but her hands are delicate and she can't do rough work. Xiangwan, be obedient and help your sister wash the clothes."
"Don't compare yourself to your sister. Some people are born smart and will have great futures, but you are just a workaholic."
After hearing this kind of talk many times, Zhao Xiangwan became more and more introverted. If nothing unexpected happened, she would become a poor person who was honest and dedicated to her work.
But now, Zhao Xiangwan has the ability to read minds.
Everything is different.
Day after day, Zhao Xiangwan listened quietly to everyone's voice and slowly understood many things.
First, she is not the biological daughter of Zhao Erfu and Qian Shufen, but the illegitimate daughter of Zhao Qingyun and Wei Meihua.
Second, Zhao Chenyang is a reborn person.
Third, she should have been taken home by Zhao Qingyun to be a rich and beautiful girl when she was ten years old, but was impersonated by Zhao Chenyang.
What Zhao Chenyang, Qian Shufen, and Zhao Erfu hope most is that Zhao Xiangwan will accept her fate and become an honest rural woman who does not know how to resist when being bullied; what they fear most is that Zhao Xiangwan will discover the truth after she becomes successful in the future.
so.
Zhao Xiangwan refused to accept his fate.
The more they fear something, the more Zhao Xiangwan is willing to do it.
Zhao Xiangwan studied hard and made great efforts to become an excellent policeman and a criminal detective expert that criminals feared.
Although he looks cold and unapproachable, Zhao Xiangwan is actually a warm-hearted person.
She knows that there are still many good people in this world.
Her utilitarian biological parents abandoned her, but Zhao Xiangwan did not choose to retaliate, but to stay away from them;
Her adoptive parents schemed against her first and treated her harshly later, but Zhao Xiangwan did not choose hatred but let it go;
Zhao Chenyang snatched away her own life after her rebirth, but Zhao Xiangwan still gave her a chance to change.
As he gets older and stands taller, the things he cared about when he was young gradually become insignificant.
My biological parents, Zhao Qingyun and Wei Meihua, seem to be just a symbol.
Of his adoptive parents, Zhao Erfu and Qian Shufen, only a blurry silhouette remains.
Having hated Zhao Chenyang for so long, he became like a thorn on a branch. When the time comes, he will naturally wither and fall off, lifeless.
Winter 2006.
Three years ago, Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao were transferred to work in the Ministry of Public Security. The Ji family bought a property in Kyoto, an old courtyard house that was once a royal palace, and hired an ancient construction team to renovate it to its original state. The whole family moved into the courtyard house. The headquarters of the Ji Group also moved to Kyoto.
The heating in the courtyard is sufficient and warm like spring.
Zhao Xiangwan came home from get off work and sat on the sofa. Nine-year-old Pingping snuggled into her arms and began to report what she had done and learned that day, and what the chef had cooked in the evening.
In the large living room, the sound of a peaceful, clear, and pleasant voice echoed.
Old lady Zhou Fangxi was sitting on a chair and laughing. Ji Jinmao and Luo Danfeng were looking at her with a bit of greed. Ji Zhao was quietly helping Zhao Xiangwan organize the materials he brought home today.
A series of cell phones rang.
Zhao Xiangwan took out his hand that was holding Pingping, took out his cell phone from his pocket, looked at the caller ID, and answered the call.
"Brother Zhu, what's the matter?"
"Fraudster gang?"
"Okay, I understand."
"I'll come tomorrow."
After she hung up the phone, everyone in the room stared at her.
[It’s over. Xiang Wan has to go on a business trip again. ]
[It's so cold, it's a pain to be on a business trip. 】
[Don't let mom leave! Pingping wants to be with mom. ]
【Go back to Xing City? I'll go with you. 】
Hearing his family's thoughts, Zhao Xiangwan smiled slightly: "Xing City Police cracked a fraud gang, and the principal offender refused to explain the details, so they wanted me to go back and interrogate the man. Ji Zhao and I came from the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and we are all old acquaintances there. Since Zhu Feipeng has asked, I have to give him this face."
Zhu Feipeng has now replaced Xu Songling as the captain and deputy director of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Xing City Public Security Bureau.
Ji Qingping ran over, hugged Zhao Xiangwan's legs and said coquettishly: "Mom, I'm on winter vacation. If you are on a business trip, please take me back with you. I miss my classmates too."
Ji Qingping attended kindergarten in Xing City for three years and had several childhood friends. When he heard that his mother was going back to Xing City, he immediately ran over to make a request.
Zhao Xiangwan looked at Ji Zhao.
Ji Zhao nodded.
Zhao Xiangwan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."
When Ji Qingping heard this, he jumped up excitedly: "Great! I can go on a business trip with my mother to catch bad guys."
Ji Jinmao and Luo Danfeng exchanged glances: "Okay, let's all go back to the old house." Xiang Wan had to do some serious work, so how could she bring the child with her? Naturally, the veteran had to step in.
Just like that, Zhao Xiangwan and his family returned to Xing City.
With family by my side, business trips become like traveling.
With a butler, nanny, luxury car, airplane, and someone to pick up and arrange everything throughout the trip, the Ji Group's financial strength finally came in handy.
We set out from Kyoto in the morning and returned to the Ji family villa at three in the afternoon.
As soon as Zhu Feipeng received Zhao Xiangwan's call, he drove over at full speed and took her and Ji Zhao to the Public Security Bureau.
Zhu Feipeng was extremely excited to meet his old friends again, and he kept reporting on the situation of himself and his colleagues.
"After her son started primary school, Mingyu wanted to pick up her profession. She was admitted to the postgraduate program of the Public Security University and graduated last year. She stayed in the school as a professional teacher. She has a kind and caring personality and is very happy to be a teacher."
"very nice."
Zhao Xiangwan knew that He Mingyu was preparing for and studying for her postgraduate degree.
After she became pregnant and gave birth to a child, He Mingyu left the Serious Crime Unit and became a clerk in the Law and Order Division, but she was reluctant to leave. Later, when her child was older, He Mingyu wanted to return to the front line of criminal investigation, but found it difficult to adapt. She sought Zhao Xiangwan's advice, and Zhao Xiangwan suggested that she take the postgraduate entrance examination and stay on campus to become a university teacher after graduation, so that she could take care of her family and continue to study criminal investigation technology.
"Liu Liangju is now the leader of the serious crime squad."
"Zhou Rulan has been transferred to the Provincial Department Information Center."
"I wish Kang to be the director of the Yao County Public Security Bureau, get married and have children, and have a busy and fulfilling life."
“…”
The colleagues in the serious crime team have their own development, which makes Zhao Xiangwan smile slightly and feel happy.
寒暄之後，趙向晚問：“一個詐騙團夥，怎麽值得我跑一趟？說吧，還有什麽瞞着我？”
朱飛鵬沉默了半晌，表情變得嚴肅起來：“向晚，這個案子與你有一定的關系。有些事情太過蹊跷，我希望你能夠參與。”
車子快速上前，車窗的景物不斷向後移動。
湘省的冬天，很冷。
蕭瑟的寒風，将梧桐樹的葉子全都吹落，只剩下光禿禿的樹枝，伸向那灰蒙蒙的天空。
熟悉的街景，讓趙向晚有一種回到過去的錯覺。
“涉案人趙晨陽，曾經是你的妹妹，對吧？”
“詐騙團夥的人，騙了趙晨陽財物合計近百萬。可是趙晨陽卻堅稱這些錢是她心甘情願給他們的。”
“團夥的人交代，趙晨陽精神狀态很差，腦子不太清醒，胡言亂語說她是活了兩輩子的人。這些錢，是幫助趙晨陽治病用掉的，不算詐騙。”
聽到朱飛鵬的話，趙向晚有一剎那愣神。
趙晨陽一直守着的秘密，竟然被這麽多人知道，還被認定為神經病？
最後一次見趙晨陽，是十年前回羅縣商議婚事，因為蔚藍被殺審訊她與洛一輝。十年不見，她怎麽混到了這個地步？
半天沒有聽到趙向晚說話，朱飛鵬從後視鏡裏看了她一眼：“向晚，你在聽嗎？”
趙向晚定了定神：“在聽，你說吧。”
朱飛鵬繼續往下說：“其他幾個被騙的苦主，都很配合警方工作，将被騙的過程詳細描述，雙方供述都是對得上的。就是趙晨陽這裏，有點頭痛。趙晨陽被騙金額是最大的，如果她堅持這些錢是自己願意給的，還真不好辦。”
趙向晚點了點頭：“好，我知道了。先見見詐騙團夥的人吧。”
來到星市公安局，趙向晚與季昭受到了熱烈歡迎。
朱飛鵬攔住一大堆要過來敘舊的同事，笑眯眯地說：“好了，各位，各位，今晚我們在食堂給趙向晚、季昭接風洗塵，大家都過來捧個場啊。現在呢，趙警官要審案子，先忙正事。”
聽到朱局長這一說，衆人這才散去。
朱飛鵬帶着趙向晚走進審訊室，一邊走還一邊說：“向晚，你人緣實在是太好。你一去公安部，大家經常念叨你。好不容易見到你和季昭，這歡迎的熱情勁，啧啧啧……”
趙向晚微笑不語。
她從大一開始實習就在星市公安局重案組，一幹就是六年。回到故地，心情還真有點激動。
詐騙團夥的首犯是個三十六歲的男子，名叫鄭毅。
他剃着光頭，身穿棉布僧袍，坐在審訊室的椅子裏，雙手被铐，一雙眼睛骨碌骨碌地轉，眼神過分靈活，一看就是個心思浮動、反應靈敏的人。
趙向晚拿起筆錄本，快速浏覽。
鄭毅是湘省瑤市港東鄉人氏，務農為生，家中老幺，愛好賭博，輸得欠了一屁股債，便和同村幾個團夥跑出來搞詐騙。
他扮過道士、演過和尚、裝過算命先生，一張嘴舌燦蓮花，見人說人話、見鬼說鬼話，編故事編得頭頭是道。
慢慢地，他發現越是大城市，有錢人越多，也越好騙，便慢慢在省城星市安下了家。
這次被警察抓住，也是陰溝裏翻了船，純粹就是手底的人分贓不勻給鬧出來的。
他手底下有兩個年輕姑娘，在美容院工作，專門負責與有錢女性打交道，在團夥裏扮演“撈魚”的角色。
這也是鄭毅在小打小鬧中慢慢總結出來的。
經常來做美容的女人裏，有不少是闊太太，內心空虛得很。做美容的小姑娘只要幾句甜言蜜語，就能哄得她們把心裏話都說出來。
了解到她們的內心需求與擔憂，行騙就變得輕松無比。
兩個美容院的姑娘幫鄭毅撈了幾條大魚，但分到的錢卻只有一、兩千塊錢，她倆不滿意，和鄭毅争吵不休，結果事情鬧大被群衆舉報，就這樣一個帶一個，将整個詐騙團夥一網打盡。
趙向晚坐在審訊室，與鄭毅面對面。
不過幾個問題，便讓鄭毅額頭冒汗。
趙向晚眼神銳利、言辭似刀，即使是殺人如麻的兇犯，與她視線接觸也頂不住心理壓力，更何況鄭毅？
幾個回合下來，鄭毅全都交代。
關于趙晨陽被騙的過程便清晰地呈現在衆人面前。
趙晨陽，是美容院的常客。
也許是因為壓抑太久，也許是因為日子過得不順利，來到這個陌生的環境，躺在美容床上，一個面容樸實的小姑娘輕柔的小手在臉上撫過，趙晨陽忽然有了傾訴欲。
小姑娘說：“姐，你的皮膚真好，長得真漂亮。”
小姑娘誇：“姐，你手指又細又長，軟綿綿的，一看就是個享福的命。”
趙晨陽很愛聽這樣的贊美，嘴角漸漸上揚。
哄得趙晨陽心情愉快之後，小姑娘開始打探她的個人情況。
“姐，你住哪裏？”
“爸媽是當官的吧？”
“你結婚了嗎？”
音樂悠揚，小姑娘聲音柔和，趙晨陽慢慢和她搭起話來，将自己的基本情況都說了出來。
1997年洛一輝入獄之後，趙晨陽一直感覺孤獨。
她雖然讀完了大專，但并沒有認真讀書，一心只想利用自己的重生優勢賺大錢。後來與洛一輝在一起之後，洛一輝開了家夜總會，偏偏又被趙向晚發現夜總會裏有殺手組織出沒，結果夜總會關門大吉，洛一輝及其他相關人員被判刑。
趙晨陽因為沒有參與夜總會具體事務，僥幸逃過牢獄之災，只是她卻陷入恐慌之中。
越接近上一世重生的年齡，她越恐慌。
她的重生優勢随着時間的推移，漸漸消失。
她感覺自己漸漸被這個時代抛棄。
趙晨陽炒股、買房，賺了一些錢，她先後談過幾個朋友，也有過短暫婚史，但重生這個秘密壓得她喘不上氣，她和誰都沒辦法交心。
她既害怕別人算計她的錢，又害怕被人知道她重生的秘密。
她有了錢，但卻孤單得可怕。
半夢半醒之中，美容院的小姑娘問她：“姐，你這麽年輕，怎麽就這麽有錢？”
仿佛被人催眠，趙晨陽閉着眼睛，淡淡道：“你要是像我一樣活了兩輩子，也能賺大錢。”
小姑娘笑了：“姐，你哄我呢，人都只有一輩子，怎麽可能活兩輩子？”
趙晨陽長嘆一聲：“活兩輩子有什麽意思呢？還不如上一世就那樣渾渾噩噩地過着，哪怕窮、哪怕苦，至少還有爸媽、哥哥真心實意地關心。現在……唉！除了錢，我什麽也沒有。”
小姑娘試探着問：“有錢還不好嗎？我現在只想着賺錢，給家裏人蓋磚瓦房呢。”
趙晨陽內心酸苦無比：“如果能重來，我寧可窮一點。”
小姑娘說：“我聽說啊，有些高僧可以給人改命，你要是過得不好，可以到廟裏去拜拜嘛。”
詐騙團夥套路深。
遇到講迷信的人，推薦高僧、道士；
遇到信科學的人，推薦心理醫生。
要是遇到那些對命運感覺迷茫的人，就推薦算命先生。
趙晨陽有些意動。
她的重生本就玄妙，說不定問問高僧，能夠答疑解惑？
于是，高僧鄭毅，法號寂空出場。
寂寞人生，一切如空。
寂空這個名字，精準戳中趙晨陽的內心，讓她感覺自己與佛有緣。
寂空一見到趙晨陽，第一句話就驚呆了她：“唉呀，兩世為人，你怎麽還沒有悟透？”
第一次有人一眼看出她活了兩世，趙晨陽頓時對高僧佩服得五體投地。
寂空一次又一次，變着法子要錢，趙晨陽卻半點都不介意。她願意花錢，只求高僧施法，讓她回到過去。
趙晨陽不只一次向鄭毅表示：如果再次重生，她一定不會眼紅別人的人生。
她會和爸媽生活在一起，老老實實讀書、本本分分幹活，等到十八歲之後進城打工，做生意、賺大錢，然後回鄉下蓋房子。
她會找一個勤勞樸實的小夥子，結婚、生子，組建一個幸福的家庭。
過一段平凡，而充實的人生。
交代到這裏，鄭毅聳了聳肩，一臉的憊懶與不屑：“我看她就是閑的！腦子有病吧。有錢多好，她想過的那種日子有什麽意思？”
案件到此，真相大白。
審訊結束，朱飛鵬看着趙向晚：“向晚，趙晨陽真的活了兩輩子？”
趙向晚不置可否，思忖片刻：“讓我單獨見見她吧。”
朱飛鵬道：“好，我來安排。”
時隔十年，趙向晚再一次見到趙晨陽。
趙晨陽打扮精致華貴，妝容明豔，大冷的天穿一條羊絨長裙，外罩一件長呢大衣，絲襪、高跟鞋，香氣襲人。
只是，她的眉眼之間帶着深深的疲憊，眼睑有些浮腫、嘴角法令紋有點深，看着有幾分愁苦。
趙晨陽走進市局會客室，将大衣裹得緊了點，愣愣地看着眼前身穿警服冬裝、英姿飒爽的趙向晚。
“向……晚？”她的聲音有些遲疑，似乎一時半會沒有認出來。
【She is really beautiful now. 】
[It is more impressive than being the boss of a company in the previous life. 】
[It can be seen that she is living a happy life. ]
Zhao Xiangwan nodded and pointed to the sofa: "Please sit down."
Zhao Chenyang was frightened by her aura and sat down obediently.
Zhao Xiangwan said, "Zheng Yi has confessed everything. He is not a great monk at all. He is just a gambler in the village. Your story was revealed to him by someone at the beauty salon."
The last glimmer of light disappeared from Zhao Chenyang's eyes.
Her back collapsed and she curled up on the sofa, not saying a word for a long time.
【He lied to me! 】
[He can't bring me back to the past? ]
[What should I do? Should I just continue living alone like this? I used to make a little money, but now it’s all been taken away by someone else. What should I do?]
Zhao Xiangwan said nothing and waited quietly.
Zhao Chenyang slowly raised his head, looked at Zhao Xiangwan, and said with a wry smile: "Xiangwan, do you hate me?"
Zhao Xiangwan asked back: "What do you think?"
The bitter smile on Zhao Chenyang's lips gradually expanded, and with the sad expression on his face, he looked a little sad: "Yes, you definitely don't bother to hate me. You are a police officer now, the chief criminal investigation expert of the Ministry of Public Security, with a successful career and a happy family. How can you still remember a villain like me?"
Zhao Xiangwan said calmly: "It's not this case. I almost forgot about it."
It is better for Zhao Chenyangning to be hated by Zhao Xiangwan than to be forgotten and ignored.
She was shivering all over, and she didn't know whether it was because of the cold or anger.
"Xiang Wan, you know what? I regret it."
Zhao Chenyang is really afraid of loneliness.
But now she looked around and found that she had no relatives around her. She wanted to talk to someone, so she opened her heart to the girl in the beauty salon, and that's why she was cheated out of nearly a million dollars by the fraud gang.
It was a rare opportunity to see a childhood sister, and Zhao Chenyang was like a drowning man who finally grabbed a piece of driftwood.
“I really regret it.”
"I shouldn't steal or rob something that's not mine."
"Although I have replaced your identity, I still cannot follow the same path as you."
"Every road is paved by each person step by step, and others cannot replace it. You are a capable person, even if you start from a late start, you can still reach a high point. A person like me who is incompetent, even if I take advantage of the situation and get ahead, I still can't be like you."
Zhao Chenyang hugged himself tightly with his arms, trying hard to control the trembling that was all over his body.
"Xiang Wan, do you know? I am a sinner."
"In your previous life, your parents were loving and happy, and your younger brother would follow your example, get into a good university, and work for your company. But now, Zhao Qingyun and Wei Meihua are divorced, and their company has gone bankrupt. Your younger brother has been abroad for several years, but he didn't even get a diploma. After returning to China, he just eats and drinks and only cares about asking for money all day long."
"But the people around you are getting better and better."
"My eldest brother became a pharmacist, my second brother opened a rice noodle shop, and my eldest aunt bought a house and a car. Our lives are getting better and better."
"Look, you became a criminal investigation expert in the Ministry of Public Security, became famous on TV, married into a wealthy family, and have a happy family. But what about me? I have nothing now. I used to have a little money, but now I have nothing at all..."
Zhao Chenyang changed the fate of many people, but most of them turned things for the worse.
She persuaded Zhao Qingyun to start a real estate company, originally thinking that they could make a lot of money. However, due to their eagerness for quick success and blind expansion, they borrowed money from everywhere to buy land. As a result, they were hit by the financial crisis in 1998, their funding chain broke, and their company went bankrupt.
Wei Meihua had been a wealthy wife for several years. She listened to Zhao Chenyang and used the money to invest in stocks. The more she made, the more greedy she became. She was caught in the stock market crash in 1996 and lost all her money. She almost jumped off a building.
Poor couples have many worries, and after becoming rich, their horizons become more open and their minds become more wild.
In 1999, the couple, who had been together for nearly 30 years, divorced and went their separate ways. Their son Zhao Chengzu was also neglected and achieved nothing.
Zhao Xiangwan looked at Zhao Chenyang, who was feeling frustrated and regretful, and all the past events came to his mind.
Character determines destiny.
Even if he had not been struck by lightning, even if he did not have the ability to read minds, Zhao Xiangwan believed that he could have made a name for himself by taking advantage of the spring breeze of reform and opening up, as long as he worked hard and did business with integrity.
On the other hand, even if Zhao Chenyang were to live her life again, she would never have a good life as someone as lazy, selfish and always looking for shortcuts.
"Zhao Chenyang, this is the path you chose."
Zhao Xiangwan's voice was cold and contained a hint of sarcasm.
Zhao Chenyang slowly stood up, met Zhao Xiangwan's eyes, and finally said the words that had been hidden in his heart: "Xiangwan, I'm sorry."
[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have taken your parents away.]
[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have let my mother bully and oppress you.]
[I'm sorry, I shouldn't have schemed against you. ]
Zhao Xiangwan didn't say anything.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have done it.
Only when you are not doing well will you regret. Only when you encounter setbacks will you know how to turn back.
Sure enough, only when it hurts do you realize you are wrong.
Feeling Zhao Xiangwan's indifference, Zhao Chenyang felt a sharp pain in his heart.
When I opened the door, the cold wind was biting.
Zhao Chenyang pulled his collar and tried to leave in a dignified manner.
With Zhao Chenyang's departure, all the fraud gang members were arrested.
Liu Liangju, the head of the serious crime unit, led his team to intensify the interrogation and sorted out all the confessions.
As dinner time approached, excited cheers rang out in the corridor.
"Let's go! Director Zhu will treat us today!"
"Yes, yes, yes, we have distinguished guests visiting us today, we must celebrate."
"Several leaders from the provincial government have also come, saying they are here to welcome Xiang Wan and Ji Zhao."
For a moment, all the coldness of winter was dispelled by this enthusiasm.
Zhu Feipeng led Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao out of the director's office and walked into the familiar, long corridor.
Zhao Xiangwan participated in the investigation of a major case in his freshman year. He put on a uniform for the first time and walked through this corridor under the guidance of He Mingyu.
Zhao Xiangwan graduated from university and joined the serious crime squad. Accompanied by Zhu Feipeng and others, he walked through this corridor.
Ji Zhao came to the serious crime team, stood next to Zhao Xiangwan, and walked through this corridor.
Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao were transferred from the Municipal Bureau to the Provincial Department, and they also walked out of this corridor.
This corridor connects countless offices.
Serious Case Team One, Serious Case Team Two, Serious Case Team Three...
Archives room, trace inspection department, legal department, household registration department...
Countless public security police officers walked out of their offices and rushed to the front lines of investigation, shedding blood, sweat and tears, punishing evil and promoting good, fighting side by side.
This time, Zhao Xiangwan and Ji Zhao walked side by side and stepped into the familiar corridor.
At the other end of the corridor stood Miao Hui, Xu Songling, He Mingyu, Zhou Rulan, Zhu Kang...
These former comrades-in-arms have provided guidance, help and care for Zhao Xiangwan during his growth. Their faces are filled with joy and their eyes are full of intimacy, as if to say: Xiangwan, Ji Zhao, welcome home.
The corners of Zhao Xiangwan's mouth curled up into a brilliant smile.
