Bai Song still fulfilled his promise to his father. He stopped drinking after one glass and ate some authentic local dishes. Since it was noon, no one drank much. After the meal, Bai Song returned to his residence.
When a person is working hard outside, having a small heated cabin where he can have a good night's sleep after being busy and tired is already the simplest happiness.
…
“Boom boom boom!”
"Still sleeping!"
Bai Song had just slept for half an hour when there was a knock on the bedroom door. Fortunately, Bai Song was not drunk, so he went to open the door.
"Brother, I just slept for half an hour!" Bai Song looked at the time on his mobile phone.
"Ah? Half an hour? What were you busy with?" Wang Liang felt a little embarrassed.
"I've been busy with cases since I got up this morning... You too, why are you back so late?"
"I was on duty yesterday and slept until about two o'clock this afternoon... It's not... um, it's only five o'clock." Wang Liang sniffed: "No, have you been drinking?"
"Well, after finishing my work, I had a drink with my colleagues..."
"Shit, didn't you tell me you quit drinking? Traitor! Come on, have a drink with me tonight!"
"I'm not drinking anymore... I really had no choice at noon. Two leaders from the institute came to visit, so I had one drink." Bai Song explained.
"Then come and have some food with me. I didn't eat at noon... No, I haven't eaten all day."
"..." Bai Song touched his stomach. He had eaten from about two to four o'clock. His stomach was full of "Laobao San", "Shrimp Brain Braised Cabbage", "Crab", "Unique Gluten", "Eight Treasures Tofu"... "I'm still full now. Okay, I'll eat with you."
"It's okay, you don't have to treat me." Wang Liang glanced at Bai Song.
"Go away, go away. I'm really not hungry. You've spent half of your money now, right? I'll treat you." Bai Song said unhappily.
"Okay, let's go. I have money for food." Wang Liang did not comment.
When the two went out, it was already dark. They randomly found a Sichuan restaurant and ordered a grilled fish, a plate of authentic twice-cooked pork, and four bowls of rice.
There is no doubt that these four bowls were all eaten by Wang Liang.
"Boss, two bottles of beer, please." Wang Liang called out.
"Don't order beer, I don't drink it. I really ate a lot, and I can't drink it even if I drink it straight." Bai Song quickly declined.
"I didn't order for you. Two bottles. I can finish them." Wang Liang said.
"What's wrong with you? Drinking alone?" Bai Song gradually discovered that Wang Liang was in a bad mood.
"It's okay, I just want to drink a little." Wang Liang took the beer handed to him by the waiter and bit open the bottle with his teeth. "Tonnel tonnel", he drank one third of the bottle. Putting down the bottle, Wang Liang burped and wiped his mouth with beer foam.
"What's wrong with you? If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating?" Bai Song asked.
"I'm really fine." Wang Liang said, then picked up the wine and took another big sip from the bottle.
"You don't mind the cold..." Bai Song showed his motherly concern, "Come, I'll get you another bottle of white wine."
"Boss!" Bai Song shouted to the boss, "Do you have 67-proof Hengshan Laobai Gan or 68-proof Mendaolu?"
"No..." The boss saw Bai Song was a little drunk before he even had dinner, and thought that he might be an alcoholic. Even if he was, he wouldn't dare to say so. If he got drunk and started to make a scene, with his body, most people wouldn't be able to handle it. "How about some low-alcohol wine?"
"Boss, don't listen to him. Bring two more bottles of beer." Wang Liang said to the boss, then turned back to Bai Song and said, "What are you doing? A life-or-death game?"
"No, I see that you are in this state, so you should get drunk, cry to me for two hours, and then tell me what happened, right? What happened? Tell me quickly." Bai Song also opened a bottle of beer, "Come on, I'll drink with you."
"Oh..." Wang Liang was always very optimistic and always smiled no matter what he did. But this time he changed his behavior and took a big sip of wine, and the bottle was empty.
"Bai Song, how long have we been here?"
"More than two months." Bai Song thought for a moment and replied.
"Well, it's been more than two months. How many police calls have you made?" Wang Liang asked.
"One hundred?" Bai Song thought for a moment and said, "I haven't counted them. I was in the task force for about a month, so I didn't respond to many calls."
"Well, I'm with the image detection department, but as you know, there are not so many cases in the police station, so I also have to go out on patrol. Bai Song, don't you think that this is a little different from the profession we once imagined?" Wang Liang sighed.
"You said it just after working for a week... It's definitely different. In my imagination, after graduation, we all go our separate ways and as a man, we take Wu Gou and conquer the fifty states. In my imagination, we fight wits and courage with bandits every day. But in reality, I just argue with uncles and aunts every day." Bai Song was open-minded and poured himself a beer.
"Well, I had some feelings when I just started working. I encountered something today. You know a little about this matter. When you first came to the institute, do you still remember the dispute with the taxi driver when you first came to our institute?" Wang Liang said.
"If you really want to make a scene about this, that's fine. At about 2 o'clock last night, someone called the police and said that his wife beat him. I took an auxiliary police officer with me. Our station was also busy last night. There were several fights, so there was really no one left.
When I got there, it happened to be the one who was screaming the loudest among the two women I met last time, the one who beat the driver on the street last time. She beat her husband, and her husband called the police. This was not a big deal. When I arrived at her house, there were broken glass all over the floor. Fortunately, I was wearing leather shoes. I didn't dare to go into the house. I found a chair in the hallway at the door and chatted with the two of them. The auxiliary police officer who came with me moved a chair next to me and sat together.
For family disputes, you can persuade them to make peace with each other. If you can’t, either the police station will handle it or the court will solve it, right? The police station was busy, so I definitely wanted to solve it on the spot. Then I talked for more than an hour, and my mouth was dry. The couple finally reconciled. When I saw this, I left directly. Family disputes are different from other things. There is no need for on-site mediation. I went back to the police station directly.”
Having said that, Wang Liang paused, finished the first bottle of wine, and then opened the second bottle of wine.
"Isn't this considered a solution?" Bai Song asked in confusion, "I've also encountered similar situations, where a couple quarrels, or a woman beats a man, and they reconcile and leave. What does their business have to do with us?"
"Oh, right," Wang Liang suddenly thought of something and said directly, "Why weren't you on duty last night? Why didn't I see you?"
"Why did you see me?" Bai Song was puzzled: "We were both on duty yesterday. Why did you come to our office?"
"Yes, I went to your station and the police took a statement from me." Wang Liang took another big sip of wine.
