River Breeze Night Sparrow

Chapter 86 Marguerite Grier

The first snow of this year in Jingdong City arrived on New Year's Eve as scheduled.

It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year, and the first snow is the beginning of all good things.Although it is still the end of the old calendar, it does not hinder people's good wishes. Social software is full of sharing of "first snow check-in".

Some time ago, the bureau had been busy with the annual summary and commendation meeting of the city's public security work, and Jiang Yi couldn't get away for a while.During the New Year's Day holiday, he didn't go back to see the old man.

This year, the criminal investigation detachment handled many cases, and was highly affirmed by the superiors. Jiang Yi was asked to speak at the conference as an outstanding comrade representative, to comprehensively summarize the work and experience of the criminal investigation detachment this year, and to propose new goals and prospects. .

This is not only the honor of Jiang Yi alone, but also the affirmation and praise of the whole year's work of the Criminal Investigation Detachment.Therefore, this is the time when Jiang Yi is most serious throughout the year.

Although Jiang Yi didn't come back to see Mr. Jiang, the old man was not annoyed. Looking at the photo of Jiang Yi speaking in the auditorium wearing a police uniform, he was beaming with joy.

But after this period of busy work, the police did not slack off.As the year approached, they had to be even more vigilant.Although the Public Security Bureau has also arranged holidays, the duty schedule is also clearly arranged.Jiang Yi even set an example, and tried his best to personally check the big and small matters.A busy is busy until the end of the year.

This year's family banquet was still lively, and the old man's smiling face never stopped.

"Mr. Jiang, your eldest grandson is really this!" The visitor compared his thumbs. "You are young and promising, you are the captain of the dignified detachment, and he looks so handsome! You are worthy of being your descendants, and you have the legacy of your past!"

After this year's commendation conference, Jiang Yi also accepted an exclusive interview with Metropolis Daily. He told the reporter not to post photos, but the reporter turned around and secretly asked Director Zhao for instructions.Bureau Zhao also likes to be lively. Considering Jiang Yi's appearance, it would be a waste of money not to show it to the police for publicity.

As a result, the readers of Jingdong Metropolis Daily knew that there was a handsome criminal investigation team leader in Jingdong City.This story was widely circulated, and it almost became a trending search, but Sun Xiaoqu found out quickly and helped Jiang Yi get it down.

"Hey, I'm still a brat. There's still a long way to go!" Mr. Jiang smiled, apparently only showing modesty on the surface.

The visitor knew immediately after hearing the words that if he wanted to curry favor with Mr. Jiang, who had the most eccentric temper in Jingdong City, his old-fashioned professor's son would no longer be able to get through, so he had to deal more with this young Mr. Jiang .

However, it is not easy to find Jiang Yi's figure first.Everyone was quietly looking for Young Master Jiang, but he seemed to be invisible and never showed up.

And this captain Jiang, who is so inexplicable, didn't even stay in the Jiang residence at the moment, but was looking at the front mirror of the car in front of a secluded villa in the depths of the Emerald Villa and straightened his impeccable hairstyle.

The snow started falling at three o'clock in the morning and didn't stop until four o'clock in the afternoon.There is already a layer of snow on the ground.Vehicles on the road near the gate of Jiangzhai come and go, and people have been sweeping them all the time, but Lin Qiu's yard has no marks at all, the evergreen trees are covered by the white snow, and it is empty and lonely, quite reminiscent of the world.

Only one person stamped his unique seal on this immaculate snow field.

I saw Jiang Yi walked to the door of the villa with straight and slender legs, holding a bag of gift boxes, and knocked on the door.

When Lin Qiu just opened the door, her face was paler than usual, but when she saw it was Jiang Yi, she warmed up a bit.

"Why are you here at this time? I wanted to come and visit later."

Jiang Yi said: "The house is too lively, I can't bear it. In case there is a special situation at night and I have to be on duty, I will bring you the gift first."

"Gift?" Lin Qiu looked surprised.

"We meet again after a ten-year absence. Teacher Lin has benefited me a lot this year. I should, I should." Jiang Yi smiled.

Lin Qiu really didn't expect Jiang Yi to give him a special gift.He prepared the annual gift, but only for Mr. Jiang.Jiang Yi's New Year's ceremony seemed to imply that he was regarded as half an elder.But in this way, should Lin Qiu return a red envelope to Jiang Yi?

The only grandson of the Jiang family, Lin Qiu couldn't bear the weight of this red envelope.

"Brother policeman?"

There was a smile on Jiang Yi's face, and he didn't say anything, only a clear female voice came.When he looked up, he saw Su Xiaoya sticking her head out from the kitchen, smiling innocently.

"I'm making New Year's Eve dinner! Brother policeman, do you want to stay at our house to eat?" Su Xiaoya raised the stuffing bowl in her hand and said, "I'm making dumplings now. There is still soup made by Dad in the kitchen. It's delicious."

dad?Jiang Yi frowned slightly.How could Su Xiaoya call Lin Qiu's father?

Lin Qiu's complexion also darkened. He only heard Su Xiaoya giggle, paused intentionally or unintentionally, observed the faces of the two adults, and then said slowly, pretending to be embarrassed: "Oh, our hometown is in charge. Uncle is called Little Daddy. Don’t misunderstand the police brother!”

Jiang Yi caught a glimpse of the cunning on Su Xiaoya's face.This little girl is full of thoughts, and sometimes people feel that she can observe words and expressions while being delicate and lively, and she is a little more sensible than her peers; eccentric.Jiang Yi suddenly understood what Steward Miao had said earlier that Lin Qiu's life might not be easy.

He was keenly aware of Lin Qiu's somewhat restrained anger and embarrassment, so he wisely did not disturb their family affairs for the time being.He put the gift on the porch table and said, "Mr. Lin, put the gift here first, and see if you like it later."

He paused for a moment, with a frank but somewhat cheeky smile on his face: "However, I have put in a lot of effort, and of course I hope Teacher Lin will like it."

"Thank you, Jiang Yi. I...I'm a little busy recently, let's get together some other day."

Jiang Yi just smiled: "Okay. Then I'll write it down. Teacher Lin, I have something to do later, so I'm leaving first. Happy New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve."

"happy New Year."

"Safe and healthy, good luck."

Looking at Jiang Yi's bright eyes, Lin Qiu finally showed a smile on his face, nodded, and said, "Safe and healthy, good luck."

Jiang Yi nodded with satisfaction, and said goodbye to Lin Qiu.

Seeing that Jiang Yi reluctantly left and finally left, Su Xiaoya said in a teasing tone, "Uncle, it's rare to see you so nervous."

Lin Qiu went upstairs with the bag, without tilting his head, and said in a clear and cold voice, "Have you spoiled enough?"

Su Xiaoya stuck out her tongue and said, "I'm still working on it. Cook the dumplings later, you know how to eat them?"

Lin Qiu didn't return.Su Xiaoya continued to shout downstairs: "I washed my hands! If you don't say anything, you agree!"

Su Ting also likes to say this sentence: "If you don't say anything, you agree."The tones of the mother and daughter are so similar that Lin Qiu will always be in a trance for a moment.

He opened Jiang Yi's things when he returned to the room.

A fountain pen lies quietly in a delicate box with jet black velvet lining.The whole body of the pen is pitch black, looks calm and low-key, but very weighty.There is a ring-shaped ornament at the end, which seems to be studded with broken diamonds, but it does not look stingy, but it looks elegant and elegant because of the unique arrangement of diamonds.

Lin Qiu picked up the pen and looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help but touch the ring lightly, but for some reason, the ring came loose, fell from the end of the pen barrel, and landed on the suede satin of the gift box. superior.

Lin Qiu's heart skipped a beat.

It was also the first time for Lin Qiu to destroy someone's gift just after receiving it, and she couldn't help feeling a little flustered all of a sudden.

Where can I go to repair the pen... Jiang Yi's pen looks expensive, but there is no information about it, let alone after-sales service.According to Jiang Yi's flamboyant style, maybe this pen is the only one in the world.

He has rarely received any real "gifts" in his life.Just now when the box was opened, something went wrong, and Lin Qiu only felt a little more depressed in his heart.

With a bit of pity and annoyance, Lin Qiu put away all the things, put the box in the drawer of the bookcase and locked it.

Sometimes people are really afraid of something.Just as Lin Qiu stopped, he received a message from Jiang Yi.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, how about the gift?"

Jiang Yi really put a lot of thought into this gift.Estimating the circumference of Lin Qiu's fingers, asking a designer to design, contacting the brand for production...Although he was very busy, Jiang Yi participated in almost every link. After waiting for several months, he finally got it. Dedicated to Lin Qiu.

As for this gift, whether it is heavy or not, it is far from being priceless; it is definitely not light if it is light...as long as Lin Qiu can understand a little bit what it means.

As for Lin Qiu here, regardless of whether he could understand Team Jiang's intentions, he felt a little guilty when he saw Jiang Yi's message, so he replied bravely, "Thank you, I like it very much, and I have already put it away."

When Jiang Yi saw these few words, he felt a little uncertain.

Put it away?What do you mean by put it away?Reluctant to wear it, or don't want to wear it?But I added "I like it very much" in front of it.What does he mean?

Jiang Yi's heart was also mixed, and he was secretly happy and confused for a while, only to see Lin Qiu replied after a while: "It's because it is too precious. I will keep it well."

His heart suddenly fell.However, the entertainment at the Jiang residence has already started, and Jiang Yi was wrapped up by the crowd without paying attention, and by the time he got away, it was almost midnight.

This year, Mr. Jiang discussed with Emerald Villa that New Year's fireworks will be set off in the small square near Jiang's house.A large group of people crowded into the small square, and some outliers stayed on the second floor of the villa by the window to watch the fireworks.

When Jiang Yi hid in the attic, it was just in time for the second round of fireworks to bloom.Brilliant and colorful fireworks burst out one by one to reflect the sky, transforming into various patterns on the sky, no matter how boring people are, they can't deny its romance.

For a while, this dignified and stable villa area became lively, and there was a warm noise from the small square, among which the laughter of the children was the most prominent.

Jiang Yi thought about it, turned around and looked, and sure enough, he saw Lin Qiu's mansion hidden by the snowy mountains and forests, with a warm yellow soft light shining through a window.The aftertaste of the fireworks' phantom light and shadow is imprinted in the scenery. Although the fireworks may not be clearly visible, viewing them from Lin Qiu's window must have a special charm.

At this moment, the snow that had stopped for several hours suddenly began to float again, like catkin sprites spreading blessings all over the sky.

"Hey?"

Lin Qiu's voice was a little blurred on the other end of the phone, as if the background sound was a little noisy.

"Did Mr. Lin watch the fireworks?"

"I happened to meet for a while."

"That's good. Watch the fireworks on New Year's Eve, and the troubles of the past year will disappear like fireworks."

Lin Qiu's voice contained a bit of the coldness of winter: "Why must it be troubles? Maybe it's something that I finally got, but in fact, like fireworks, it comes to nothing."

"Ms. Lin, quickly pooh twice. You can't say such unlucky words."

"Okay, then don't say it." Lin Qiu's tone contained a bit of a smile.

Jiang Yi's eyes fell on the hour hand, and it will be the New Year in 2 minutes.

"Mr. Lin, do you have any New Year's resolutions?"

"I have no wishes."

Desire, in other words, is actually an extravagant wish, something that one knows is destined not to be realized.It's just that if the "obsession" becomes "wish", the weight will be much less, and the heart will be much more relaxed.

Lin Qiu had already given up making wishes.If the wish is known by God, it is easier to be torn apart by reality.He doesn't believe in God, neither good nor bad.

"Ms. Lin, don't be like this. Just say something auspicious. My grandfather's fireworks came true, and all my New Year's wishes since I was a child have come true."

"So smart?"

"Yes, yes." He made a wish every year to be safe and healthy in the coming year and not to die early. So far, it seems that it has indeed come true. "Teacher Lin, let's try it too, it must be enough to achieve."

"Is it sure to be possible?" Lin Qiu murmured.

He looks to the sky.For some reason, Jiang Yi's words always seem to have magical power, challenging his original views and making him involuntarily do things that he would not do before.

Well, then just beg God one more time...or, just swear to yourself one more time.

If I can, let me bear all the pain alone.

Another burst of fireworks began to pour into the sky.

Jiang Yi saw the time change with his own eyes, put his mobile phone to his ear, and tried his best to say loudly in the noisy background: "Mr. Lin, Happy New Year!"

"Am I the first person to say blessings to you?" His tone was very excited.

The sound of fireworks was too loud, and Lin Qiu still had a bit of difficulty speaking, but Jiang Yi still couldn't hear clearly.

"What? Teacher Lin, what are you talking about, I can't hear you!"

Jiang Yi waited for a long time but didn't hear what Lin Qiu said clearly, so he hung up the phone on the other side.Jiang Yi glanced at his phone anxiously, only to see a message flash in.

"Yes. And the first person to say it in person."

Jiang Yi's heart skipped a beat.He opened the window, only to see a very tall and straight man standing in the garden downstairs outside the window.He was wearing a dark gray scarf, his black hair was like ebony, his face was as white as snow, and he was as quiet and calm as a landscape painting.

Lin Qiu saw Jiang Yi, put down the phone by his side, waved at him with the other hand, and smiled.

Jiang Yi's heart froze.He thought, God, this year's wishes came true too quickly.
