Chapter 288 [New Volume, New Case] Name Change
Another thing Qian Hongxing mentioned was helping change the child's name.
He said he spent a lot of money to find a master to tell his child's fortune.
The master said that the child’s name was not good and would easily bring disaster and trouble, and suggested that he change the child’s name.
He originally wanted to ask a master to give his son a name, but the master said that his son was destined to be helped by a noble person, so it would be better to let that noble person decide the name.
Qian Hongxing said: "Then there can't be anyone else like you who can be this noble person."
Zhou Yi was half-believing and half-doubting. Did this master really figure it out, or was he just shirking responsibility and deceiving Qian Hongxing?
Zhang Qiuxia listened with great interest and echoed, "That's right, it must be you. Son, let me tell you, some masters are very accurate."
Well, as soon as the topic of fortune-telling comes up, I, as a mother, get excited.
Seeing everyone looking at him eagerly, Zhou Yi said, "Okay, then I'll change the child's name."
In Zhou Yi's opinion, changing the name actually has a greater psychological effect.
The purpose of a name is simply to bring good luck, make people happy, and provide psychological comfort.
If changing your name could really change your destiny, then why bother working so hard?
It’s not that Zhou Yi completely disbelieves in such things as fate and metaphysics. The world is so big, and he believes that there are many things that are difficult to explain, such as the piece of intestine in the septic tank of Donghai Community.
He believes that there is God's will in all things.
Including my own rebirth.
He just didn't believe that those "masters" who made a living from this had the ability to see through the secrets of heaven.
If you really have this ability, wouldn't it be great to trade stocks? Wouldn't it be good to do business?
Why are you just standing there giving advice on life?
Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "Why not just call him Qian Jin from now on? It's simpler and means that his life from now on will be unstoppable and invincible."
Qian Hongxing pondered, "Money coming in...all the money coming in..."
He immediately smiled and said, "Okay, okay, the name Qian Jin is good. Not only does it have the same meaning as Qian Lailai, it's even more auspicious."
"Your full name is Qian Jin, but you can call him Lailai by his nickname. This way, when you adults call him by his name, the child won't feel strange."
"Yeah, Officer Zhou is really thoughtful. I'll go to the police station tomorrow to change the child's name."
Zhou Yi reminded: "The household registration window of our Hongcheng Police Station is open from Monday to Saturday. It does not handle household registration business on Sundays."
"Then I'll go early on Monday morning."
At this time, Yao Yuling's voice came from the restaurant: "You can come to the table to eat."
Qian Hongxing ran over excitedly and said, "Yuling, Officer Zhou just named the child."
"Come on, let's go and have dinner." Zhou Yi patted his butt and said.
Qian Lailai immediately jumped off him and pulled him towards the restaurant.
Yao Yuling was wiping her hands, Sister Yang was busy setting the table, and Qian Hongxing asked them to sit down quickly.
Zhou Yi discovered that Qian Lailai was much more well-behaved than he had imagined. He didn't make any noise and was very well-behaved. When Sister Yang served him food, he would even say thank you.
There is a fact that may not be pleasing to the eye, that is, the better the family conditions of children, the better their quality and academic performance will be from childhood to adulthood, because the education and concepts they receive, as well as the resources they have access to, are beyond the reach of children from poor families.
It’s just that there are always some rich second-generations who cause some trouble, which leads people to have some stereotypes about rich people’s children.
Although the police's duty is to save people, saving a good person is definitely more comforting than saving a bad person. This is a person's potential instinctive reaction.
Zhou Yi discovered that although Yao Yuling had prepared a table full of dishes, just as Qian Hongxing had said, they were indeed all home-cooked meals, without any delicacies from land or sea.
However, Qian Hongxing didn't know that even this table of home-cooked meals was only available to ordinary people like Zhou Yi during the Chinese New Year and other festivals.
"These are just some home-cooked dishes, please don't be disgusted, elders," said Qian Hongxing.
Then he took out another bottle of wine and said he wanted to drink with Zhou Jianguo.
Zhou Yi wanted to dissuade him, fearing the wine he brought out was too expensive, but after a closer look, he almost laughed out loud.
It turned out to be a bottle of Niulanshan Erguotou in a glass bottle. It seems that Qian Hongxing really put a lot of effort into it.
Everyone ate and chatted in harmony.
During this time, Yao Yuling asked a question, that is, does Zhou Yi have a partner?
If not, introduce one to him yourself.
But Zhang Qiuxia immediately said, "No need, our Zhou Yi has a partner."
"Really? Is he Officer Zhou's colleague?" Qian Hongxing asked.
"A great top student." Zhang Qiuxia said with a smile.
Zhou Yi didn't want to become the subject of discussion, so he could only tell Qian Hongxing that they were still in contact and had not confirmed their relationship, and then changed the subject.
After dinner, Qian Hongxing said it was still early and asked them to rest for a while. He would ask Xiao Sun to take them home later.
Qian Hongxing took out a cigarette case and said to Zhou Yi, "Officer Zhou, would you like to have a cigarette with me?"
Zhou Yi nodded, knowing that he must want to say something, so he followed him out.
The villa area is particularly quiet at night.
Qian Hongxing handed Zhou Yi a cigarette, lit it, and then lit one for himself before asking, "Officer Zhou, the news that day said two gangsters were shot dead. Was the main culprit who kidnapped my son one of them?"
After the lockdown ended, the authorities informed the general public of the reasons for the lockdown and the cases behind it through the "Questioning the Heart" program.
But firstly, the details of the case were not presented, and secondly, the information of all people involved in the case was concealed, whether it was the murderer or the victim.
The main purpose is to calm the panic of the citizens and inform them that two gangsters were killed and four related suspects were arrested.
Therefore, even Qian Hongxing, the person involved, is not clear about the specific information.
Zhou Yi didn't answer directly, but said, "Don't worry, those captured alive will receive the most severe punishment under the law. You don't have to worry about retaliation one day."
Zhou Yi exhaled a puff of cigarette and said slowly, "They don't have this opportunity."
With Zhou Yi's words, Qian Hongxing was completely relieved. This was what he was afraid of.
"Yuling and I went to Su Jun's house yesterday," said Qian Hongxing.
Zhou Yi was a little surprised.
"We left 20,000 yuan for Su Jun's parents. After all, it was Yuling and I who wronged him first." Qian Hongxing smoked a cigarette, wanting to say something but stopping himself, but in the end he could only sigh.
Zhou Yi patted his shoulder and said, "Death is the end of all debts. By doing this, you've repaid his debt for risking his life to save your son."
Qian Lailai ran to the door and shouted, "Dad, Uncle Zhou Yi, Mom is calling you to eat cake."
Qian Hongxing smiled and replied, "Okay, son, I'm here."
The two men put out their cigarettes and turned to go into the house.
In the night sky, dotted with stars, a shooting star streaked across the sky.
…
On Sunday, Zhou Yi didn't go anywhere and stayed at Ergang's house all day.
I slept until I woke up naturally in the morning, cooked a bowl of noodles, and then went straight into the secret room.
Today is April 21st, and there are only two weeks left until the grand case.
Whenever Zhou Yi thought of Lu Xiaoshuang, his heart ached.
It's not just because a huge case that shocked the whole country is approaching.
Moreover, Zhou Yi discovered that he had fallen in love with Lu Xiaoshuang.
At first, his attitude towards Lu Xiaoshuang was completely between that of a police officer and a victim, but the impact of the grand case was so great that he paid special attention to Lu Xiaoshuang.
But since the food street incident, that night in the hospital ward, Lu Xiaoshuang opened her heart to him, which made him feel good about this kind and positive girl. He felt the presence of a living person, which made him have a stronger belief in protecting her.
In the frequent interactions that followed, he and Lu Xiaoshuang grew closer. Most importantly, Zhou Yi felt very natural with her, like family, without any burden. He didn't have to deliberately say or do anything; he could just be himself.
Having experienced life once, he knows that the best emotional relationship is one where getting along naturally and without pressure.
So he knew that he had fallen in love with Lu Xiaoshuang.
But the grand case was not prevented and not solved, the cruel and perverted murderer was not caught, and the guillotine hanging over Lu Xiaoshuang's head would always be there.
Before solving this most difficult case, he felt that it was meaningless to have a relationship with Lu Xiaoshuang and break this window paper.
That's why he made an appointment with Lu Xiaoshuang during dinner that day. When everything was calm, he would take her to climb Yunxia Mountain.
Only Zhou Yi himself knows what this calmness means.
However, Zhou Yi looked at the whiteboard with an extremely serious expression.
The purple light illuminated the dense invisible words he had written, but he still had no direction.
Who is the murderer of the grand case?
What was the murderer's motive?
Why did the murderer want to kill Lu Xiaoshuang?
I have tried to find out about the situation around Lu Xiaoshuang many times through indirect means, but I really haven't found anything suspicious.
What is the mystery behind this case?
Zhou Yi stayed in the secret room for most of the day, and only came out when his eyes became so sore that he could no longer bear it.
Looking at the inky night outside the window, Zhou Yi's face was as gloomy as water.
The next morning, he came to the Municipal Bureau, intending to go to the archives department to look through old case files related to Hongda to look for clues.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yongcheng was already sitting in the office of the Third Brigade, looking through the case files.
"Captain Wu, you're here so early?"
"My schedule has been a bit messy these days in the provincial capital, so I got up early today and came here thinking I'd have nothing to do."
Zhou Yi discovered that Wu Yongcheng was looking through the case file of Tang Xue.
"I heard... Shi Tao caught a wanted criminal from Luohe, and it seems that the clue came from the case of investigating Donghai Community?" Wu Yongcheng asked.
Zhou Yi played dumb: "It seems to be the case."
"Does this matter have anything to do with you?" Wu Yongcheng asked casually.
Zhou Yi knew he couldn't keep it a secret, so he said, "I just followed them to arrest someone. I was hoping to get some credit."
Wu Yongcheng raised his eyebrows and nodded, "I thought you were doing a favor for Team Two."
Sure enough, nothing could be hidden from Wu Yongcheng.
Zhou Yi didn't respond and changed the subject, asking, "Captain Wu, when did you come back?"
"I came back yesterday afternoon in Director Xie's car."
"Captain Wu, your voice is a little hoarse." Zhou Yi said.
"Oh, don't mention it. I've been so exhausted from all the meetings this week."
Wu Yongcheng put down the case file and said, "It's a good thing you're here. I have something to tell you."
