Chapter 31 I Want Your Tongue (VII) Finding Red Clay
When Han Jianye returned to the dormitory in the middle of the night, he found that his bed had new sheets and the small dormitory was filled with the fragrance of laundry detergent.
His handsome eyebrows raised, and he felt that when Ye Bai became clean, even the people around him enjoyed it.
Ye Bai just came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. He wiped his short hair as if nothing had happened. The water from his wet hair dripped down his cheeks and delicate chin. He knew that Han Jianye had returned. "I'm done. You go ahead and wash."
"Yeah." Han Jianye took his change of clothes and went to take a shower.
There were still a few hours before dawn, and they had to continue their visit to two villages. Plus, the weather was so hot that if they didn’t take a shower, they would feel smelly.
When Han Jianye came out of the bathroom, Ye Bai had already fallen asleep. In fact, he had always had a curious question that he wanted to ask Ye Bai.
He lay on the bed and asked tentatively: "Can you tell me why you applied to the police academy?"
Ye Bai hadn't really fallen asleep yet. He opened his eyes and answered truthfully, "If I say it's because Yan Yi, the criminal police captain of the Qiyang Branch, is my role model, would you believe me?"
Han Jianye thought Yan Yi's name sounded so familiar. He thought about it carefully, and then suddenly remembered, "Isn't his wife a female criminal police officer with good skills?"
"Yes, her name is Wen Yuexi. She has switched from being a police officer to a lawyer and is now a criminal lawyer."
"I know. I know her. She's very skilled and rare." Han Jianye replied, "But that's not right. How could you know Yan Yi when you were studying? He wasn't the captain yet, was he?"
As soon as he said this, Ye Bai's face looked a little flustered. He regretted saying this to Han Jianye.
Han Jianye looked at the ceiling, as if he had thought of something, and said with an understanding expression, "I think the role model you mentioned is just an excuse. Could it be that you like..."
"No." Ye Bai immediately interrupted what Han Jianye was about to say, "You don't know anything, so don't talk nonsense."
Ye Bai's expression was slightly angry. Yan Yi was very important to him. He was the little brother who had always been with him when he was kidnapped in his childhood.
He heard it very clearly. The young man told him to just call him Brother Yan, and also said that he wanted to be the criminal police captain of Qiyang Branch in the future.
Although he didn't know which Yan it was, he had asked and found out that in the entire Qiyang City, there was only one criminal police captain with the surname Yan, Yan Yi, and both the age and the name matched.
Although Yan Yi had forgotten about him, he still worked hard to catch up with him and fight alongside him.
That's why he gave up the path his parents had paved for him, resolutely took the police academy entrance exam, and then joined Yan Yi's criminal police team, hoping to catch the kidnapper who had kidnapped him and was still on the run.
"You're so brave to yell at the captain." Han Jianye responded loudly.
"Anyway, you are not allowed to say anything bad about Captain Yan." Ye Bai shouted back, unwilling to be outdone.
He regretted it now. He shouldn't have changed his bed sheets. It turned out that dirty work was done by those who couldn't stand watching.
Han Jianye snorted coldly. He didn't say anything bad about Yan Yi. He just suddenly felt that Ye Bai was a bit protective of his child, which was quite cute.
Then he thought about it. He studied in Qiyang City when he was a child. Later, his parents died in a car accident. He was brought to Zhunan City by his aunt and settled down here when he grew up. Otherwise, with his ability, he would also be a criminal police captain in Qiyang Branch.
Because of an unpleasant conversation between the two before going to bed, Ye Bai did not remind Han Jianye to take vitamin tablets until they were in the car on the way to Wuliu Village in the daytime.
But Han Jianye's mind was not here. He just sat there quietly with his eyes closed.
The car was unusually quiet. Bored Liao Wei started listening to an audiobook. The real person's intelligent reading voice echoed silently in the car:
"Tonight is lawyer Dong Ye's wedding, with a beautiful bride and a handsome groom. Many friends and relatives came to the grand wedding to congratulate him.
Just when the bride and groom were exchanging rings, the door of the venue was suddenly opened, and a group of tall men in suits came in. The dark crowd scared all the guests in the venue.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "Oh no! The gangsters are here to snatch the bride."
Dong Ye's face changed drastically. He immediately pulled the frightened bride behind him to protect her. Then he looked at the gangster boss who was walking out of the crowd. His pupils were instantly shocked. "Why...why is it you?"
Xiao Shengmo raised the corners of his lips and smiled evilly at Dong Ye, "You used me, slept with me, then dumped me, and then turned around and married another woman?"
Dong Ye quickly explained, "I...I didn't use you. This is all just your imagination. Please stop being so self-indulgent, okay?"
"Hmph, I don't care about that. I have to take responsibility if you sleep with me. Anyway, without my consent, you can't marry anyone..."
At that moment, the venue was in chaos, and someone was heard shouting: "Oh no! The groom was kidnapped by gangsters!!!"
"!!?? ( . )"
“………(⊙o⊙)!”
“………(_)”
This short audio-visual reading contained a lot of information. Because of the sudden plot reversal, everyone in the car turned their attention to Liao Wei.
Liao Wei also smiled awkwardly, looked at them and said: "Just... just listening casually, the groom being robbed was... quite sudden."
Qi Xiaolei was at the forefront of gossip, whispering in Liao Wei's ear: "I like this novel, but I didn't get enough of it just now. Send me the title later."
Liao Wei nodded and responded softly: "No problem, I'll send it to you right away."
After Qi Xiaolei received Liao Wei's novel sharing, a look of joy immediately appeared on her face that only girls could understand.
There is a cure for your book shortage! (ω)
Twenty minutes later, Han Jianye, Ye Bai and his party arrived at Wuliu Village.
At the same time, Su Wan led another team to Luoyang Village.
They worked in groups of two, each taking action with the goal of finding areas covered with red mud.
The country paths became extremely difficult to walk on after the rain, with mud and puddles everywhere, forcing Han Jianye and Ye Bai to walk carefully along the roadside to avoid falling into the mud.
They did not go too far, focusing their search on the area near the deceased's home.
Ye Bai stopped at a self-built house because there was a pile of red mud next to the house. He stood there and looked at it for a long time, and just then a woman walked out of the house.
Ye Bai immediately smiled and said, "Aunt, can you give me some of this red soil? I made a filter and I'm just short of red soil."
The auntie was also very enthusiastic. "Take them. I bought them to pickle duck eggs. The rest are just extra. You can take as many as you want. Don't be polite with me."
Ye Bai took out a bag from his pocket and walked towards the pile of red soil soaked by rain. "Thank you, Auntie. I'll just take enough."
