On Gu Lingyan's side, the progress was also relatively smooth.

In order to facilitate the transportation by helicopter, Captain Xing and Xiao Su were there, carefully paying attention to prevent the trash can from vibrating too much, while tying the trash can with a firm rope.

While working, generally speaking, people who are not very familiar or close to each other will not casually strike up a conversation.

But Captain Xing, who had been patient for a long time, first concentrated on cooperating with Xiao Su to carefully tie every knot on the trash can. After confirming that there was no problem, he began to talk to Gu Lingyan.

"Are you dating?"

But it's also quite straightforward.

There is no specific name reference, but both parties know it well.

In fact, Gu Lingyan had vaguely noticed before that Captain Xing's gaze frequently fell on Xiang Huanian. Xiang Huanian, who was extremely insensitive to people who were not very relevant, did not notice Captain Xing's gaze, but Gu Lingyan was not blind.

So, in front of everyone, or in front of Captain Xing, he made subtle physical contact with Xiang Huanian, which he would not normally do, but was so obvious.

Although it has not reached the level of sovereignty declaration, it is not far from it.

However, up to now, they have experienced the experience of expressing their feelings to each other, and even kissing and hugging each other beyond the limit, but they have not been able to successfully develop a romantic relationship. Faced with the provocation of Captain Xing, Gu Lingyan was annoyed in his heart, but he could do nothing.

However, just talking about it——

"not yet."

Gu Lingyan deliberately faced Captain Xing directly, smiling with a look of happiness, making people think that although he and Xiang Huanian had not yet "achieved the goal" and he did not have a formal status, they were almost there...

Captain Xing: “…”

He licked his back teeth, ignored Gu Lingyan's silent "show of force" and warning, and replied with a smile:

"Really? No wonder you weren't around when I was on duty last time and encountered this little girl being insulted by a criminal..."

Gu Lingyan’s smile froze on his face: “…” This is the first time I’ve heard of this.

"Besides, she didn't even bother calling you to pick her up at the police station. I thought you were just ordinary friends..."

Tea talk, after watching Team Xing for a lot, he uses sarcasm and hints to perfection.

After tying the ropes, Xiao Su sensed the strong tension between Captain Xing and Gu Lingyan: "..." I'd better remain silent...

"That's a misunderstanding. It shows that the little girl is very independent. Even when I'm not around, she can handle problems on her own. Isn't that a great ability? She's not just a clinging dodder..."

Captain Xing, who had just spent some time together, agreed with this point: "..."

Although, what Gu Lingyan said is right.

In the silent contest, when one side is at a disadvantage or shows a slight sign of decline, the opponent who has been patiently waiting for this moment will seize the opportunity and force the other side to retreat inch by inch.

"By the way, Captain Xing said he ran into a little girl during his last police call. I won't ask about the details. The little girl can tell me if she wants to, but... the little girl didn't seem to recognize you..."

Masters exchange moves, and their moves are fatal.

Captain Xing's initial question hit Gu Lingyan's sore spot precisely.

Gu Lingyan's counterattack now was extremely accurate, hitting the pain point that Captain Xing cared about the most and was most helpless about at this stage.

"..."

From Xiao Su's perspective, Captain Xing and Gu Lingyan, two mature men, were evenly matched in strength, but between their smiles as they looked at each other, one could faintly see crackling lightning and thunder.

"Ah, here it comes!"

Hearing the sound of air being torn apart by the fan blades, Xiao Su finally raised his head from the fierce but silent battle between Captain Xing and Gu Lingyan and saw the official camouflage helicopter.

Competition is competition, but when it comes to official business, neither Captain Xing nor Gu Lingyan are the kind of people who would delay the progress of things because of such personal emotions.

So, after just looking at each other, they both looked away with disgust, walked to Xiao Su's side, and helped the helicopter to accurately locate itself.

In such an environment, there is no large enough flat ground, and it is surrounded by trees... landing is impossible.

The way to move the trash can is that the helicopter follows the instructions of Captain Xing, stops right above the trash can, and drops ropes and locks.

Then, Captain Xing and Xiao Su from below tied the trash can securely.

Finally, after receiving the signal, the helicopter took the trash can directly to the nearest police station.

"Suddenly..."

With the tacit cooperation of Captain Xing, Xiao Su and Gu Lingyan, the helicopter quickly and steadily grabbed the trash can containing important evidence, and then flew away.

"Okay, the first thing is done, let's go back..."

Having said that, it was obvious that Captain Xing and his men still had a mission, but the other party didn't say it, and Gu Lingyan wouldn't ask about it.

"Let's go."

------

"Hmm...what should I do..."

The villager who picked up Xiang Huanian’s mobile phone took the phone back to his home and placed it solemnly on the table.

The villagers looked at the black bricks on the table, their faces filled with sorrow and a bit of solemnity, as if they were afraid of something and were avoiding something.

"Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou... Lao Zhou, what are you doing? Um, what is this? Whose phone is this? It's the latest model. Why did you pick up something in the mountains again?"

The villager's name was Lao Zhou. When he was worrying about Xiang Huanian's cell phone alone, a peasant woman outside the house, carrying a basket of vegetables from her own field, called Lao Zhou's name several times. When there was no response, she stepped over the threshold and walked in. Then, she saw Lao Zhou's cell phone on the table.

In this village, because of income from certain sources, every household has considerable financial resources, so the peasant woman could tell at a glance what model Xiang Huanian's mobile phone was.

"However, if you can't find the owner, you can just break the data and the phone will be yours. It looks brand new and in good condition. It has a few dents, but it will be brand new after repairs. How about selling it to me for a discount if you break it?"

The peasant woman looked around at the cell phone on the table, and after confirming that there was no serious damage, she revealed a greedy face.

"No, do you know where this fell from?"

"Hmm? Where? It must have been a guest on the mountain who accidentally fell down..."

The peasant woman, who was still assessing the situation, responded nonchalantly.

“…It fell from the direction of that platform.”

Peasant woman: “……!”

"That place has been deserted for a long time. Besides, most customers won't stray from the main path... I don't think so..."

"Speaking of which, what brings you here now?"

Putting aside the topic that was giving him a headache for the time being, Lao Zhou took a puff of his cigarette, rubbed his forehead, and changed the subject.

"Oh, by the way, these are some freshly picked vegetables from my vegetable garden this morning. Can you help me go up the mountain? I'll give you 40% of the proceeds from the sale as usual."

"The mountain...yes, I'll go there."
