Actually, Xu Mengshan had no choice. He could not avoid the fifteenth day even if he got lucky. Not to mention his childhood friends and the older sisters in the police station, who especially wanted to find a match for him, an older and high-quality young man, his parents were so eager to see him that they could hardly sit still. This time, it was Ding Xiongwei who came forward and acted as a matchmaker for his parents, saying that the girl was an elementary school teacher who was intelligent, pretty and gentle, and that the girl was particularly loyal and sensible, and that he would definitely satisfy them. With three huge mountains pressing down on him, Xu Mengshan had no choice but to come.
In fact, even now, facing such a thing, Xu Mengshan didn't show it on his face, but somewhere deep in his heart, he still felt a little annoyed.
He quickly finished a cup of tea and called the waiter to add water. His fingers were drumming on the table and his expression looked a little grim. Just then, several young girls at the next table were heard bursting into cheerful laughter.
Xu Mengshan held the cup filled with tea, but did not drink it immediately. He looked at it quietly for a while and then looked up.
There were several unfamiliar girls, all in their early twenties, but exuding a unique youthful exuberance. Xu Mengshan looked for a while, and suddenly his eyes became hot and he lowered his head and smiled.
The originally restless heart seemed to be soothed by something, gradually becoming calm, and the mood suddenly improved. I even felt a little curious and expectant about the strange girl I was about to meet.
After a while, he looked up and saw a slender young figure walking towards him in the opposite corridor. There was still some distance between them, people were coming and going, the store was filled with steam, and for a moment he couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but somehow, the peaceful feeling in his heart was still spreading.
As he saw the person getting closer and closer and could see his face clearly, Xu Mengshan suddenly became nervous and his face turned red. He coughed twice and stood up, feeling a little nervous.
…
On the same night, it was raining heavily in the sky on the Yunnan border, soaking the entire lush tropical rainforest.
Jing Ping, dressed in camouflage, with his hands hanging down and holding guns, hid in the dense forest with several colleagues, silently, like a few cheetahs waiting to hunt.
No one spoke.
No one spoke.
Rain and sweat slid down their cheeks, making them extremely itchy, but no one reached out to scratch them. Among them, the one with the most cruel and gloomy eyes was Jing Ping, who was commanding this operation.
Heavy rain continued to fall.
The sound was hidden in the heavy rain, and if you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear it at all. But Jingping's ears were developed in this environment, so he can hear everything clearly. He frowned and made a gesture. Several anti-drug police officers were like taut bows, with every inch of muscle under their camouflage uniforms storing strength.
The target appeared.
The two young men seemed completely unaware of their situation. Both of them carried a backpack, wore a felt hat, and stared at their heads as they trudged through the woods. There are bulges around his waist, where he hides a gun.
Jing Ping looked even more like a stone sculpture at this moment, leaning against the cold, hard and damp tree trunk, glancing at them from the side, and walking step by step into the encirclement.
Almost in an instant, in the dark rainforest during the day, lights came on and several policemen pounced out like tigers. Gunshots rang out.
…
This arrest operation was very successful.
Although there were only two people on the other side, they were two notorious and experienced drug dealers. This time, due to the large amount of goods being transported, they went into battle personally. However, they did not expect that the police had already made arrangements and arrested the two gluttons in one fell swoop.
The rain had stopped, and the policemen's leather boots clattered back and forth in the woods, making a crisp sound of folding leaves. Several policemen, escorting two drug dealers, walked towards the police station parked not far away. The two men looked ashen and had completely given up struggling. But when they reached the edge of the woods, one of them suddenly turned his head and yelled hysterically: "Jingping! You caught us today and ruined Brother Bo's plan. He will never let you go! Just wait for the reward to be put on the table and you will be hunted down! Damn it..." His mouth was blocked by the policeman next to him.
All the police officers present looked over, some at the bandit, some at Jing Ping, but no one spoke.
Jing Ping had been lying in ambush for the entire night, and had just personally chased and captured someone, so he was already exhausted. He was leaning against a big tree, with several brothers next to him who had lived and died together for many years. He had one arm on his knee, smoking a cigarette, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he didn't hear anything, still looking extremely lazy yet cold. He gave each of his brothers a cigarette, and they discussed the follow-up arrangements.
The two drug dealers were taken into the car and their ears were cleared.
Jingping raised his head and looked at the sky which was gradually brightening after the rain, with azure blue as the background and white clouds flowing. Just high up among those trees, an eagle came from nowhere and soared through the sky with its wings spread.
Jingping didn't know why, but he suddenly felt very happy. He raised his head and smiled.
…
Have you ever seen an eagle in the sky?
Of course I have seen it.
We criminal police, like eagles in the sky, can only spread our wings and soar. All the passing, parting, pain, excitement, fearlessness, sorrow and joy are the destined scenery on this road.
Even if the wings are broken, the limbs are severed, and the body is soaked in blood and tears, one can only continue to fly forward firmly.
On this road, everyone is guilty and no one is innocent.
Desires are hard to satisfy, but the child is still innocent.
Then let me fly with you, okay?
good.
Please see my love and admiration, oblivion and unforgettableness. That person has always been you. You can’t change anyone else, no one else in this world can.
Only you.
As dazzling as the stars, their cold light illuminates my path.
Can defeat all demons and monsters,
Take me to a beautiful and kind world.
