Chapter 177 Chapter 177 I couldn't help teasing when I met her...
As soon as she came out, the two children immediately pulled her to sit down, kneading her legs and comforting her, which really soothed Qiu Jiang's tired heart.
But I am really tired.
Because the case they are dealing with now is really stressful.
It not only troubles them, but also their colleagues in Huaian City.
The reason is very simple. This incident happened at the junction of two cities, and because the case also involved firefighting, they have been busy cooperating with the fire department to put out the fire these days.
After working non-stop for a whole day, the fire was finally put out. She and Deng Xingwang and others she brought with her hurried back to the city and returned home.
Fortunately, she had successfully passed the driving test and got a car, so she didn't have to make others feel so tired before having to take her home.
It's just that they have to run back and forth, and arrange everyone to participate in firefighting, evidence collection, investigation and other tasks. They are also responsible for urgently setting up a special task force with Huaian City and reallocating the areas and contents that each is responsible for.
At the end of the day, she was so tired that she felt numb.
After satisfying my hunger and taking a hot shower, I felt a little more alive.
But it's only a little, not more than that.
Seeing that she was so tired that her eyelids were squinting even when she was sitting on the sofa, and she couldn't open her eyes at all, they didn't have the heart to ask her anything and just urged her to go back to her room and sleep.
Qiu Jiang nodded repeatedly and walked upstairs under the escort of two children.
Just for a moment while lying in bed, she vaguely heard a name. She forced her hazy eyes open and asked her nephew, "Is Team Ji coming today?"
"Yeah, Uncle Ji asked if you were back, and left when he found out you weren't." Qiu Simiao said to her with his little hands on the bed, and asked her if she wanted to tell him that she was back.
Of course I want that.
And not knowing what he wanted to talk to her about, Qiu Jiang stretched out her arm to look for her cell phone. Her little niece knew exactly what she was looking for, and Guaiguai handed her the cell phone on the table.
After several "beep" sounds, Ji Mingcheng's voice came from the other side, and she shouted weakly.
"Team Season."
When Ji Mingcheng heard her voice, he knew that she was exhausted. He didn't say anything else, but just asked her to have a good rest and they would meet before leaving tomorrow.
"good."
After she said this, she couldn't hold back any longer and fell asleep.
Ji Mingcheng knew she was asleep when he heard her long breathing. He just listened to her voice for a while and then hung up.
Qiu Jiang could be said to have a deep sleep every time he slept. After seven or eight hours of good sleep, he finally recovered fully and came down to have breakfast with renewed energy.
Even when I eat, my arm still feels sore, weak and swollen.
After all, they were really busy yesterday. They did a lot of physical work such as carrying water, connecting pipes, evacuating and comforting the crowd.
In addition to these, she and Director Chang were also busy brainstorming with Huaian's leaders and colleagues. It was a double output of physical and mental strength. She felt incredible now and really didn't dare to think about how she got through yesterday.
Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for is that the fire was finally put out, but this is only the first step in a long journey. Investigating the cause of the fire and finding the culprit will not be an easy task.
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became, and the faster she ate. After finishing her meal, she had to rush over there without stopping.
But before that, I still need to meet Ji Mingcheng.
As soon as she got outside the door, she saw a tall figure leaning in front of her beautiful car. Who else could it be but Ji Mingcheng?
As soon as she saw him, Qiu Jiang's eyes lit up and she unconsciously quickened her pace as she ran towards him. When she spoke, her voice softened a few times. She couldn't help but tell him what happened yesterday, and she even cried and said she was tired.
Ji Mingcheng looked at the dark circles under her eyes and felt distressed and angry. "Who told you not to agree?"
He was talking about what happened before she took on this case, when he asked her if she needed a change.
In fact, Ji Mingcheng did not divide the case intentionally, but the two sides had originally divided the cases according to the order of the cases, and this case just happened to be her turn.
At that time, Ji Mingcheng also proposed to take charge of this case, but she knew that his previous case was in the final stage and he had a lot of things to do. How could she bear to pile all the work on him, besides, this case was originally their responsibility.
So she took up her post right away, starting last night and not returning home until dark today.
I didn't have time to eat properly all day, which is why I was so hungry when I came back yesterday.
But even though she was tired, she really didn't regret it at all.
The reasons are very good.
"I know this is going to be very tiring. Captain Ji, you don't want me to get tired, but I don't want you to get tired either."
She blurted out what was in her heart all at once.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it.
Isn’t that too direct??? If she scares him away, how can she pursue him?
That's right, she wanted to pursue him, the kind of pursuit that a boyfriend and girlfriend would have.
She had never been in love in her previous two lives, but that didn't mean she didn't know what it was like to like someone.
In the past, because he was my leader, even though I knew I had some different feelings for him, I didn't want to make it clear at that time, so as not to complicate the relationship between us as superiors and subordinates.
But things are different now. They are now at the same official rank, so she has been secretly thinking about pursuing him.
It's still at the idea stage. It's not that she's hesitant or afraid, but she's really busy.
She was so busy that she didn't even have the chance to see him more than once.
How can I pursue someone like this?
In addition, she is not the kind of person who only cares about feelings, so she naturally puts the case before personal feelings.
The case has not been solved yet, and she doesn't want to break the window paper now.
However, her mouth was much faster than her brain. As soon as she said it, she knew it was over.
As expected, Ji Mingcheng was stunned after hearing this.
His dark eyes stared into hers, clearly seeing her panic at the moment.
Qiu Jiang's heart was pounding. "That I... I mean..."
She was just thinking about making amends when Ji Mingcheng suddenly stretched out his hand. The familiar action made her forehead tighten. She immediately forgot about any words of amends and turned around to cover her forehead, looking at him vigilantly, afraid that he would hit her again.
But I didn’t expect…
Ji Mingcheng ruffled her hair randomly, and the soft hair felt so good in his hands.
But none of this could compare to the shock and joy he felt at the moment.
Is there anything more wonderful than being liked by the person you like?
He was not stupid, but extremely shrewd. Otherwise, he would not have become a trainee police inspector in Hong Kong at the age of only twenty-six or twenty-seven. Naturally, he could understand her expression and the unfinished confession in her words. The overwhelming joy overwhelmed him and made his face extremely gentle.
This is completely different from his usual appearance.
It made her wonder if he was also...
Young people are so bold. I just said that I didn't want to break the window paper at this time, but when I saw the tenderness hidden in his eyes, I became eager to try.
So she boldly hooked one of his fingers and clenched it, then suddenly pulled it away and promised him, "Captain Ji, I will definitely solve this case and live up to the reputation of our Team Five."
She promised cheerfully, as if she had hooked her finger with him just to confirm it, but someone understood her initiative and love beneath her well-behaved appearance.
Ji Mingcheng's throat rolled and his heart softened.
However, at this moment, she waved her hand without leaving a cloud, and got into the car and started it in a flash.
"Team Ji, see you later—"
After saying that, he stepped on the accelerator and flew out.
I have to say, it's no wonder that he taught me personally, and my driving skills are quite similar to his.
He was both proud and lost.
Was she annoyed that she couldn't stay a little longer? Couldn't she let him confirm their status before leaving?
But he also knew that he would never do that even if it happened again.
Because they are the same kind of people, even if they like each other, they know what is important and what is not.
Even though his heart was filled with inexplicable regrets and unfinished tenderness, he could only force himself to retract all the beauty and excitement into his heart.
Fortunately, they still have a lot of time to confirm each other's feelings, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
And now he has to take care of his own affairs.
That is to say, to completely conclude this case.
After getting on his big jeep, Ji Mingcheng called Wang Li.
That’s right, because this mission was urgent, even Wang Li, who was going to get married in three days, was urgently asked to return to the team to work because of his characteristics as a living map.
At the same time, Qiu Jiang had already met up with Deng Xingwang, Chang Xuemin and others, and the group drove towards Daye Village and Shangdan Village at the junction of Anxi and Huaian.
Everyone had a quick breakfast in the car and took the opportunity to catch up on some sleep. After about three hours, we finally arrived at our destination.
Compared with other villages that are full of greenery and vitality, this ancient wharf connecting several nearby villages is charred everywhere, and many houses have been burned down. Even though the fire has been put out, the air is still filled with a strong smell of smoke from burning. Even a slight breath feels very choking. The most important thing is that it feels like a lot of dirt has entered the nose, making it itchy and uncomfortable.
"Here, put this on."
Qiu Jiang took out a pack of masks, and everyone came forward to take masks to cover their faces tightly.
She also put one on herself, and she was very clear about one thing: they probably wouldn't be able to return to the city before the case was over, and masks were absolutely indispensable in the next few days, so all the masks she bought could come in handy, and maybe even be distributed to other colleagues.
Unexpectedly, her words came true. The colleagues from Huai'an arrived earlier than them. Their noses were as black as loaches. When they saw the masks, they were not polite and came up to use them directly.
This also brought the two parties closer together and laid a good foundation for future cooperation.
