To not let others down, Xi Junhong got here to the Bureau on daily basis, extra punctual than the precise Bureau staff. 

Rao Feifei angrily hid from the pestilence Xi Junhong. Lu Hui introduced three or 4 luggage of potato chips on daily basis however didn’t watch his cleaning soap operas. He reclined within the workplace chewing the fats with Xi Junhong and Ji Fanyang. 

“The DNA check report got here out.” Rao Feifei positioned the check report on the desk, “There was a match, however he’s nonetheless dwelling.”

“What?” Ji Fanyang straightened up. 

Lu Hui languidly leaned over: “I recall that we discovered a dismembered corpse, useless for 2 years.”

“Mm, they checked thrice. Positively dwelling.” Rao Feifei answered. 

Lu Hui lifted his eyebrows in disbelief, then reached out to seize the report and flipped via it: “Somebody from Liangang Metropolis?”

“Sister Dongshan discovered some info referring to him.” Rao Feifei handed over one other paper file, “Two years in the past, he introduced his daughter to go sight-seeing in Linhua Metropolis for seven days.”

“So he’s nonetheless alive, and we discovered a corpse with the very same DNA as him?” Lu Hui clearly acknowledged his disbelief, “Contact Liangang Metropolis’s Public Security Bureau.”

Now, Lu Hui was lastly . The dwelling useless: at first pay attention, it seemed like a weird xuanhuan[1] plot. It couldn’t have suited Lu Hui’s pursuits extra. 

“So, we’re going to Liangang Metropolis?” Ji Fanyang requested, “That’s two thousand kilometers from right here.”

“Appropriate. Prepare, we’re touring.” By the tone of his voice, Lu Hui was ecstatic. He turned towards Xi Junhong to say, “Does the Younger Grasp Xi need to include us?”

Xi Junhong was a bit dumbfounded: “You need to convey me alongside?”

“Chief Lu, you need to convey him alongside???” Rao Feifei raised her voice. 

“Why not?” Lu Hui laughed lowly. He patted Xi Junhong’s shoulder, “A strolling ATM, who wouldn’t like him?”

“Aren’t you afraid I’ll maintain up your work…” Xi Junhong had a bout offstage fright. 

Lu Hui’s eyes curved as he smiled and shook his head: “You’re much more fascinating than TV dramas.”

Rao Feifei’s eyes widened: “Chief Lu, didn’t you say you weren’t homosexual?”

Lu Hui adjusted his facial features: “Xiao Jun’s goal is you, not me. Don’t change the subject.”

“Yeah, I’ve all the time preferred you.” Xi Junhong added hurriedly. 

Rao Feifei held the report back to her chest: “Like I’d consider your lies.” She walked out of the workplace. 

Ji Fanyang stood up and dragged Lu Hui out of the workplace into an empty interrogation room and shut the door. He stared at Lu Hui and requested: “Why are you bringing Xi Junhong?”

“His stupidity is entertaining.” Lu Hui stated. 

Ji Fanyang frowned: “Nonsense. You identical to making battle, proper?”

“Can concord push issues alongside? No.” Lu Hui stated, “The quickest option to resolve an issue is inciting battle.”

Ji Fanyang all of a sudden understood: “So that you need to intensify the battle. You need to see Rao Feifei’s ethical character, so ultimately, you’ll get two outcomes…”

“Both Xi Junhong pesters Rao Feifei into softening her character, they usually find yourself collectively.” Lu Hui stated, “Or Rao Feifei cleanly cuts off all reference to Xi Junhong.”

“An experiment?” Ji Fanyang wished to sigh, “A love experiment?”

“A match-making experiment.” Lu Hui was in excessive spirits. He reached into his pocket to tug out his pockets, withdrawing two purple payments[2], “A guess?”

Ji Fanyang smiled sardonically: “Somebody who’s by no means even fallen in love goes to guess towards me in a love experiment?”

“What you simply stated sounded such as you really beloved your ex-girlfriends.” Lu Hui refuted, “I’ll guess they don’t find yourself collectively.”

“Positive, I guess they’ll.” Ji Fanyang agreed readily. 

“It’s too boring with simply the 2 of us betting on it.” Lu Hui opened the interrogation room’s door and walked into group one’s workplace, “Anybody need to place a stake on whether or not or not Younger Grasp Xi can get Miss Rao.”

The workplace was quiet for a second, then group one’s captain circled to ask: “How a lot?”

“2 hundred.” Lu Hui stated. 

“I guess he’ll.”

“Positively not.”

“The chaste lady fears the pestering gentleman[3]. He’ll.”

…

In a brief afternoon, Lu Hui had gathered all the groups into the guess. The entire Bureau appeared to be spectating Xi Junhong and Rao Feifei’s relationship progress. 

Director Gao swiftly accepted the paperwork for them to go to Liangang Metropolis to deal with a case. The intense crimes squad would have a half-day’s depart to go house and pack their issues. 

Lu Hui and Ji Fanyang drove house to their shared condominium. 

“You’re certain you solely want a backpack?” Ji Fanyang pulled a trunk out from beneath his mattress and opened it, “Hey, don’t put your stuff in my trunk.”

Lu Hui shrugged: “It’s just some small issues.”

“No small issues, both.” Ji Fanyang lifted his eyebrows, “Are you incapable of bringing a razor?”

Lu Hui ran his hand alongside the darkish stubble on his jaw: “Little children wouldn’t perceive.”

“Bullshit. You simply don’t need to adjust to the looks rules.” Ji Fanyang poked holes in his roommate’s considering, “Deliver a couple of extra jackets. It’s damp close to the coast.”

“Understood, Mr. Policeman.” Lu Hui agreed obediently. 

Males’s baggage wasn’t an excessive amount of bother; they didn’t must convey any cosmetics, in any case. When Lu Hui noticed Ji Fanyang’s cologne, he raised his eyebrows: “If there comes a day if you don’t placed on cologne, I’ll assume it’s the tip of instances[4].” 

Ji Fanyang picked up a bottle of the cologne and put it in his trunk. He slanted a have a look at Lu Hui: “You need to strive some?”

“Positive.” Lu Hui fortunately agreed. 

“…What?” Ji Fanyang thought there was one thing unsuitable along with his ears, “You. need. to. strive. some?”

“I need to strive one thing completely different.” Lu Hui stated actually. 

Ji Fanyang stood up. He grabbed a bottle of the remaining cologne and handed it to Lu Hui: “Do this one.”

Lu Hui sprayed a bit on his wrist. The perfume’s high notice dispersed faintly between them. 

It was the lingering scent of the ocean. Lu Hui sniffed: “Not dangerous.”

“Congratulations in your first step into the realm of straight males.” Ji Fanyang stated paradoxically. He leaned all the way down to proceed packing. 

Early the following morning, Lu Hui led the squad as they boarded their scheduled flight. 

They sat in two rows: Lu Hui and Ji Fanyang within the first, and Yang Jie, Rao Feifei, and Xi Junhong within the subsequent.

“Did you do that on function?” Ji Fanyang stated, his voice low, “Isn’t Feifei sitting near Xi Junhong an explosion ready to occur?”

“No, Sister Yang’s there too.” Lu Hui shut his eyes calmly, “Cease being noisy, I’m catching up on some sleep.”

Ji Fanyang shut up. 

After a two hour flight, Lu Hui was sleeping contently along with his head slanted on Ji Fanyang’s shoulder. 

The aircraft had not exploded. They’d landed safely. 

Ji Fanyang shook Lu Hui awake: “We’ve landed, get up.”

“Mm? Mm.” Lu Hui was dazed and responded vaguely. 

Ji Fanyang stated coldly: “You drooled on my jacket.”

“…” Lu Hui subconsciously darted a look at Ji Fanyang’s shoulder. The jacket was completely clear. “Subsequent time, I’ll do my finest to fulfill your necessities.”

They stood up. Rao Feifei’s expression seemed alright. 

The group disembarked the aircraft. The Liangang Metropolis Bureau’s individuals have been ready within the terminal to obtain them. 

After he picked up his checked baggage, Lu Hui walked to the exit and met with the individual from the Liangang Metropolis Bureau. 

“You’re Lu Hui, then?” The individual assembly then stretched out a hand, “I’m the captain of group seven, Liangang Metropolis Bureau, Zhong Yuxiu.”

“Zhong Yuxiu, ‘to be endowed with pure skills’[5]. An excellent identify.” Lu Hui stated, an enormously false smile on his face, “I’m Lu Hui.” He shook arms with Zhong Yuxiu. 

Ji Fanyang, who was following behind, shuddered. This type of perspective from Lu Hui was actually revolting. 

Rao Feifei and Yang Jie averted their eyes, wanting off in a random path. The expression Lu Hui made as he praised individuals was sufficient to depart behind everlasting psychological injury. 

Xi Junhong, nevertheless, appeared to take all of it in with relish.
