Chapter 13

Zhou Yiyao took Lu Xiaoxiao to a high-end western restaurant near her home.It is located on the top floor of the tallest building in the city, surrounded by bright and clean floor-to-ceiling windows, sitting at the table can directly overlook the night view of City B.There were not many people when they came, so Zhou Yiyao sat directly at the table by the window and called the waiter to order.Zhou Yiyao dragged her cheeks and looked at the menu, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Lu Xiaoxiao sitting opposite her drinking water uncomfortably, blinking her eyes and asking, "Ah Xiao, what do you eat?"

Lu Xiaoxiao twitched the corners of her mouth and tilted her head to look at Zhou Yiyao: "No...it's okay, you can order. I'll do whatever I want."

Zhou Yiyao ordered casually, then looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and asked: "What's wrong? Your expression looks weird." Then she smiled again: "Don't be afraid, I'll treat you to this meal. It won't make your wallet empty."

Lu Xiaoxiao hurriedly shook her head: "No...not..."

"Then you..." Zhou Yiyao looked at Lu Xiaoxiao strangely, then looked at her tilting her head and not looking outside, and smiled suddenly: "Isn't it, you are afraid of heights?"

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded awkwardly: "A little bit."

"You're a policeman, are you afraid of heights?" Zhou Yiyao stared at Lu Xiaoxiao incredulously, "How did you become a policeman?"

"I didn't before." Lu Xiaoxiao took another sip of water: "A year ago, I had a case and was chasing a fugitive. The man panicked and fell from the tenth floor. I rescued him. I almost fell with him. .Later, when it was too high, I...I just..."

"The tenth floor." Zhou Yiyao looked at her dumbfounded: "What crime did the fugitive commit?"

"Intentional homicide."

"Such a person, you still save him? If caught, he will be sentenced to death." Zhou Yiyao poured another glass of water for Lu Xiaoxiao slowly: "You are really not afraid of death."

"The death penalty is a fair decision of the law." Lu Xiaoxiao shook his head: "But I have the responsibility to protect his safety before handing it over to the court. This is also part of my duty."

"You are really a good public servant of the people." Zhou Yiyao chuckled lightly, "Then you are not born with a fear of heights, it is a psychological effect. You will get better if you take your time."

"Yeah." Lu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and nodded, clenched her fists and looked outside again, with sweat dripping from her brow, she leaned on her seat and smiled: "I think I'd better take my time."

"Why don't we change seats?" Zhou Yiyao felt a little pitiful seeing her like that, so she asked the waiter to change seats.But Lu Xiaoxiao said again: "No, no, no. It's not necessary."

Zhou Yiyao didn't force her, she cut the steak slowly, and said indifferently: "Is there any new case at work recently? Let me hear it?"

"Huh?" Lu Xiaoxiao bit her fork in a daze, then said, "Didn't you say that you don't want to hear about lawyers after work?"

Zhou Yiyao was paused by Lu Xiaoxiao's words, and then said: "You mean, what you think is interesting has something to do with the legal profession? I suddenly want to gossip again."

Lu Xiaoxiao made Zhou Yiyao amused by the ever-changing way of talking, and nodded, "That's right, there was a police call a while ago, domestic violence."

"Domestic violence." Zhou Yiyao raised her eyebrows, thinking that the world is really small, there are several police stations in City B, and every time she encounters a case with Lu Xiaoxiao, she will encounter Lu Xiaoxiao, but she pretends to be calm and says : "Cases like domestic violence are dealt with by the court with certainty. It's not new."

"Originally, that woman was broken by that man. When we went there, her face was covered with blood." Lu Xiaoxiao said, looking at Zhou Yiyao's steak that was about to be delivered to her mouth. , and said: "Why don't we talk about it after dinner?"

Zhou Yiyao directly put the steak into her mouth and chewed it, and said vaguely: "It's okay, I haven't seen any scenes, you go on. I'm waiting for the next article."

"Then the woman sued him." Lu Xiaoxiao muttered, "In the end, the man was released without charge."

"Acquitted? Why?"

"There is a mental problem. There is a hospital certificate and the signature of the attending physician." Lu Xiaoxiao shrugged, "When I went to their house, I made sure that the man had absolutely no mental problems. It was normal."

"Oh." Zhou Yiyao nodded, "I see. This kind of thing is very common."

Lu Xiaoxiao took a bite of the steak angrily: "I'm very angry."

"Why are you angry? You don't know that woman." Zhou Yiyao glanced at Lu Xiaoxiao, and continued to eat as if nothing had happened.

"Why do you think there are so many unscrupulous lawyers now? Are they indiscriminate for money?" Lu Xiaoxiao was filled with righteous indignation and tried to compete with the steak on the plate, but she didn't see Zhou Yiyao's brows seemed to disappear after she finished saying this. Picked it up, and said: "Is money more important than conscience?"

"That's not what you said," Zhou Yiyao took a sip of the red wine in her glass: "Look, it's like last time you caught that murderer, your sacrificed colleague, your goal was to catch the criminal, but No one expected her to have an accident. Every industry has its own difficulties."

Lu Xiaoxiao's movements obviously stopped, and she looked up at Zhou Yiyao: "That's different. The boy was sacrificed. That lawyer knew the law and broke the law."

Zhou Yiyao laughed dryly: "Don't think too much, maybe that man is really mentally ill? Who would tell others if he is mentally ill. Maybe he was not ill when you went. Do you think it is possible? Let's When you do things, you have to pay attention to evidence, and you can't just rely on your own judgment to say that he is not sick, after all, you only saw him once. Isn't it?"

Lu Xiaoxiao blinked, then nodded again: "What you said also makes sense." She said with some embarrassment: "This is nothing new, and I have to ask you to give me psychological counseling if I say it. Let's Let's talk about something else."

Zhou Yiyao nodded knowingly, and said, "It's okay, I just like to give you psychological counseling. I minored in psychology when I was in college, maybe I can cure you of your fear of heights."

Lu Xiaoxiao smiled: "Yiyao, you said that if all lawyers were as good as you, there would be fewer unjust, false and wrongly decided cases in the world."

Zhou Yiyao took a bite of the steak and stuck it in the middle of her throat, choking so much that she raised her head and drank all the red wine in the glass.That's all right.Seeing Lu Xiaoxiao's pure and clear eyes still looking at herself, she held up her cup and said, "I just said this to you, and I did it."

So during the remaining half of the meal, Zhou Yiyao drank two bottles of red wine by herself, dragged Lu Xiaoxiao into the KTV private room and insisted on singing.There were only the two of them in the spacious box, she was a drunkard, she ordered a large table of beer and drank it bottle by bottle, she just wanted to drink.Especially want to drink.

The more she drank, the more questions she asked, the more endless she asked. Sometimes she asked about Lu Xiaoxiao's interesting stories when she was in college, and then asked her if she had thought that this profession was too dangerous to change to another job after being a policeman for so many years. When she was older, did her parents let her go on a blind date and get married? While talking, the topic turned to their two mutual good friends, Lin Che and Chen Mo.

"When did you know about the relationship between your master and Sister Lin?" Zhou Yiyao held up the wine bottle and shook it at Lu Xiaoxiao: "Does it feel like you have found a bosom friend?"

"Bosom friend?" Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then said in deep thought: "Not exactly. I just think the two of them look so beautiful." She said, with a smile on her lips: "It's just that they look very beautiful." good."

Zhou Yiyao put down the wine bottle, quietly looked at Lu Xiaoxiao's calm profile, stroked her chin and asked, "You look like you're looking forward to having that kind of emotion. Don't you?"

Lu Xiaoxiao blinked and smiled: "Yes. I hope too. But it's hard to talk about this kind of thing."

When it was nearly twelve o'clock, Lu Xiaoxiao answered the phone, Zhou Yiyao was leaning on the sofa and watching the automatically played songs on the TV, finally feeling a little dizzy.Lu Xiaoxiao sat beside her and said, "Let's sing."

Zhou Yiyao cast a sideways glance at Lu Xiaoxiao: "Didn't you just talk or not?"

"Just now I wanted to chat with you for a while. I think you must be too busy at work and don't have time to chat with friends, so I will chat with you for a while. But I heard the news just now, I feel a little happy, and I plan to sing." Lu Xiaoxiao did not hide the happiness on her face, she pursed her lips with a smile.

"Why are you so happy to hear the news?" Zhou Yiyao leaned on her head with one hand, her long loose hair hung loosely on her shoulders, "Come on, tell me to make me happy too."

"A colleague of mine just came back from a business trip. I saw a group of people beating someone at the airport." Lu Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and said, "Guess who that person is?"

"Who?" Zhou Yiyao squinted at Lu Xiaoxiao.

"The one who was acquitted of domestic violence." Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help the smile on her face: "My colleague went up to fight."

"The psychopath?"

"Yeah." Sitting in front of the computer, Lu Xiaoxiao said while choosing a song, "I'm going to leave right after it's released. There's no trace of illness at all. Could it be that I'm a guilty conscience and want to run away?"

"Lu Axiao," Zhou Yiyao leaned on the sofa and looked at her back dazedly: "I thought you had a sense of justice, why don't you say that someone intentionally hurt someone?"

"Eh..." Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment: "Do you need to act in a hurry?"

Zhou Yiyao stood up unsteadily and moved behind Lu Xiaoxiao, pulled her body towards her, grabbed her by the neck and approached her and said: "So, you also think that lawyers and police can't solve everything in this world. crimes. Is it not?"

"Then..." Lu Xiaoxiao was a little dizzy from Zhou Yiyao's strong smell of alcohol, and since the distance between the two of them was less than five centimeters, she felt a little hot on her face: "Then some people, he can't get the law Sanctions, this, this necessary punishment, must be accepted.”

"Hmm..." Zhou Yiyao felt that her head was a little heavy, and she lazily pressed it against Lu Xiaoxiao's head, completely unaware of the ambiguous posture of the two of them at this moment, and said, "You finally got a little enlightened. Many things in this society are either black or white.”

"That..." Lu Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly: "Yiyao, why don't we stop singing and let me take you home?"

Zhou Yiyao stared in a daze and didn't answer her question: "You think our posture is awkward, don't you?" She said and smiled: "I also feel a little embarrassed. Don't you like women? Are you blushing? ah?"

She reached out to touch Lu Xiaoxiao's face, squeezed it and nodded: "Well, it's quite hot." She giggled again as she spoke.Lu Xiaoxiao was made to sit or stand by Zhou Yiyao's inexplicable drinking and talking, and stayed in place: "Yiyao, you...you drank too much..."

Zhou Yiyao lazily raised her head, looked at Lu Xiaoxiao under the dim light, and opened her mouth as if the sound of music came from her ear: "I didn't drink too much. I'm just a little happy."

Lu Xiaoxiao's head was dragged by Zhou Yiyao, but she didn't dare to move, she sighed: "People who drink too much say they don't drink too much."

"What does it feel like to like a woman?" Zhou Yiyao thought for a moment and asked, "I kissed a woman before, does that count?"

"Ah?" Lu Xiaoxiao didn't expect Zhou Yiyao to talk about this issue at all, she was stunned for a moment and said: "This...not...not necessarily...this...you have to feel it...to... Just..." She was halfway through her speech and felt that what she said really shouldn't be the content of her conversation with Zhou Yiyao, so she took Zhou Yiyao's hand away and said, "No more singing, I have to take you home. After a while You're so dizzy, I don't even know how to open the door."

However, Zhou Yiyao is now in a state of being completely drunk, and her brain is completely out of control, and she pushes Lu Xiaoxiao on the sofa again with her temper: "If you can't open the door, then pry it. What do you feel? What is it?" Feel?"

With Lu Xiaoxiao's strength, Zhou Yiyao can be carried out by force.However, it's not easy for her to start a fight with a drunk girl at this time, so she said patiently: "How about, I said it, and you let me take you home?"

Zhou Yiyao hummed and said, "You speak first."

"It's just..." Lu Xiaoxiao hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's just the feeling of heartbeat."

"Have you tried it?" Zhou Yiyao squinted her eyes and looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with a smirk: "Have you tried it with that Zhang Xiaoya?"

Lu Xiaoxiao blushed when she was told, and shook her head: "I haven't tried it..."

Zhou Yiyao smiled, and grabbed Lu Xiaoxiao by the collar: "Then let's try..."
