WTO accession

It was completely dark when Tan Yanxiao and the leaders of the provincial department finished the meeting. The people from the province went back to the hotel. Tan Yanxiao and the two deputy bureaus sent them off. When they came back, they saw that the office of the criminal investigation team was still on.Tan Yanxiao went over to take a look, Xiao Guo was sitting alone at the conference table.

He seemed to have no expression on his face, but in fact his eyebrows were lowered, conveying a very bad aura.Tan Yanxiao frowned and knocked on the door frame.

"Xiao Guo, why haven't you left yet?" Tan Yanxiao was still in good spirits after working all night. She held the folder in one hand and took off her glasses in the other, and asked, "Didn't you receive the notice?"

Xiao Guo said, "Got it."

In the afternoon, Jue Ting called him, saying that it was Tan Bureau's notice that he was given another week's paid leave, which was compulsory, before the rest after withdrawing from Teng Cuo was over.After Xiao Guo hung up the phone, he carried Bai Sui back to his home, and then went straight to the city bureau.

"Are you still here on compulsory leave?" Tan Yanxiao said, "Xiao Guo, you are violating discipline."

Xiao Guo did not have any fluctuations, and said "En".

"Go back when you know." Tan Yanxiao looked at Xiao Guo's expression, hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "What do you need from me?"

Tan Yanxiao hesitated for a moment, but sat on the side of the table anyway.She put the folder in her hand beside her, and sat upright looking at Xiao Guo.There seemed to be a confrontation between the two.The room was very quiet, and the circuit of the overhead light made a very small sound for a few moments from time to time.

"Teng Cuo——" Xiao Guo's voice was still very steady, not fast, but with an imperceptible tremor.He asked: "Teng Cuo is Agni, the outsider lurking in the garden, right?"

His face was tense under the lamp, his eyebrows and lips were full of pressure.The stalemate lasted for a long time. Tan Yanxiao had never felt that Xiao Guo's appearance had a kind of aggressiveness before. After all, his usual style is not the kind of person who is calculating or fighting sharply.But probably because this matter involved Teng Cuo, Xiao Guo changed completely once he got involved with that person.

She leaned back slowly and said, "Don't make such absurd imaginations and conclusions just because it's difficult to accept the facts."

"Absurd?" Xiao Guo's eyes were very deep, and when he asked the leader back, he even twitched the corners of his mouth, a half-smile.

Tan Yanxiao felt unprecedented pressure, but she remained calm.And Xiao Guo didn't expect any answer from her, he was very calm and said in a steady tone: "In the previous Fan Dayuan incident, we originally suspected that the person who injured Fan Dayuan was to save people rather than silence them. The successful collection of evidence and the note confirmed this point. Before Xiao Lu saw the shooter as a woman, Teng made a mistake, and the ballistic report has come out, and the gun that injured Fan Dayuan was a 9x19mm Glock."

He took a deep breath and continued: "The gun Teng mistakenly pointed at me last night was an original Glock. He took this gun away, but I trust my judgment."

Tan Yanxiao was silent for a few seconds and said, "This is a coincidence."

Xiao Guo said: "Glock updates and iterations are very fast. The design and production of the first generation were both in the 90s. It stands to reason that it should have been eliminated long ago. Such a gun appeared twice in a row. I can't just interpret it as a coincidence."

Tan Yanxiao was silent for a while, then raised her head slightly and sighed.Then she looked at Xiao Guo and asked, "What else do you want to say?"

"Regarding Peter Xiao's arrest," Xiao Guo's eyes leaked a cold sense of oppression, "Yesterday evening, Peter's goods arrived at Xianfang Pavilion, and he himself was arrested in the hotel. Not to mention How did you know exactly when and where the second transaction was made? The arrest is an indication that you have the evidence. Anti-narcotics is not arresting people. Passport, if it is really a misunderstanding, it is not worth alarming the embassy. Such accurate information cannot be obtained simply by tracking the location."

He paused for a while, and then said: "Of course, there is another point. I know your ability. The possibility of Teng's escape is very small if you personally command the arrest. And he can go back to his residence after escaping." Take something, and fight with me..." He swallowed suddenly, and then continued: "Fighted with me. Such a long time, it does not meet our usual speed."

Tan Yanxiao was calm, her sitting posture and expression didn't change, and Xiao Guo didn't move either. Both of them leaned on the back of the chair, showing their confidence and firmness with their posture.They looked at each other with complicated eyes, Xiao Guo was eagerly waiting for an answer, while Tan Yanxiao was amazed at the short time it took for this young man to discover the truth.

She finally sighed heavily, and said, "Xiao Guo, everything you said just now is conjecture and conjecture. You are a policeman, so you should know the importance of evidence."

Xiao Guo laughed when he heard the words, the man who usually rarely has emotional ups and downs suddenly showed warmth and softness, the contrast was very attractive.He lowered his eyes, and then looked at Tan Yanxiao again.

"You're right. Evidence is needed in handling a case." He said with a smile, "But between Teng Cuo and I, it's enough to talk about feelings."

"Xiao Guo, you are telling me that everything you say now is based on your wishful thinking." Tan Yanxiao frowned slightly, and warned coldly: "You wishful thinking that Teng Cuo is a good person, and you put everything together again." The details of Xicou are put together to prove it. You have violated the basic principles, and the police academy did not train you to let you all come out on your own will!"

Xiao Guo's expression showed a little disappointment, then he put a bulging envelope on the table, he didn't say what was inside, Tan Yanxiao put on his glasses again.The female director's eyes shone sharply behind the glasses, and she asked, "What is this?"

"The evidence you requested," Xiao Guo said, "was found in Teng Cuo's apartment."

Tan Yanxiao was taken aback, and said, "Search without permission, you are violating discipline!"

However, Xiao Guo didn't change his face, and pushed the envelope over.Tan Yanxiao hesitated for a moment, took it over, opened it, browsed it, and showed a surprised expression.She looked up at Xiao Guo and said, "This is—"

"The suicide note," Xiao Guo said calmly, "this is the suicide note he left as Agni ready to sacrifice at any time."

In the bedroom filled with sunlight, Xiao Guo stood in front of Teng Cuo's bed, pushing the cotton wool out of the pillow.

Inside the pillow were Teng Cuo's suicide notes, a total of 39 letters.

Teng Cuo became a raging fire nine years ago, and began to write a suicide note every few months. From then to today, he wrote from his hometown to his hometown.He drew his unknown fearlessness and steadfastness on large and small letter papers, and he hid them all in his pillow, and went to sleep with his last words on his pillow every night, feeling no regrets while clearly knowing the truth behind him. great danger.

Some of these suicide notes are like diaries, with no object of dialogue, and most of them read like letters, written by Teng Cuo to Nan Zhuo, Teng Yongan, and Xiao Guo in the past.

"Nan Zhuo, please live until the day when you write a suicide note next time. There is nothing else to explain, just...don't give up."

"Uncle Teng, Agni is reporting to you."

"I don't have any complaints about this world. The only thing is that I feel that the happiness I have obtained is too fleeting. Uncle Teng and Xiao Guo are like this. I don't know if it is God's arrangement or I have not grasped it. By the way, it has been a long time I haven’t seen Xiao before, I don’t know how he is now, please ask people who see here to help me find out, he should still be in Yufang City. But it seems useless to ask, and I won’t know. Also, After I die, please help me pay homage to Officer Teng Yongan, the former captain of the anti-drug brigade in Yufang City."

"Thank you for being in my life."

"I started to do research with the project. The students who studied finance didn't know my identity and taught me to invest. I played with them and really made some money. Please donate all my savings to more than Fang City Orphanage."

"I voluntarily donate my body to medical programs in need in our country."

"Xiao Guo, four years have passed, and I can finally write about you here calmly. I have long since let go of what happened back then. How can I bear to blame you? I hope you live a long life."

"If I am unlucky (or lucky) to die as a fire, please help me find Xiao Guo and tell him my story. I hope he can be proud of me."

"Please be proud of me."

"Xiao Guo, I want to tell you that I still like you."

The words on the paper are scribbled and simple, and the inscription is the flame of that small group of stick figures, burning vigorously.The ink flowing from Teng Cuo's pen tip is printed on the paper. He is well aware of the shortness and perishability of life. He looks forward to the dawn when the darkness clears up, and fears the regret of not seeing that day.

Xiao Guohua knelt down on the ground, his red eyes overflowed from his throat and growled, he seemed to be able to see Teng Cuo who wrote these words, what a lonely person he was, hiding his pain with intimacy, even standing at the end of his life , There are only two people who are thinking about it.And of these two people, one has long since passed away, and the other has lost contact.

Xiao Guo put these suicide notes together according to the date of signing, and the fragile paper made up Teng Cuo's path towards him step by step.The writing time of the last letter was the night before yesterday, before Xiao Guo went home.

"Brother Xiao, if I'm right, from tomorrow until my death, we will never see each other again. I'm sorry, I have to leave in this way. I said a long time ago that I don't live long. Don't you Hate me, I know you are a policeman, you are a good person, but I am not a bad person. You must see these words, I am afraid you will always think that I am a bad person.

In fact, I am not a good person. Over the years, I have seen life go by on the battlefield without gunpowder smoke, and I have not been touched in my heart. The Fox Hunting Office gave me a psychological test and said that I have psychological problems. I don’t understand.Some things I don't know how to say, no one taught me, but I know you are different, I treat you differently than others.

They say that to die is to sleep, but I don't think so. Sleep may be meaningless, but death is meaningful.It's obviously a one-shot thing, but it can make a lot of sense.In fact, I don't want to die either, but if death is more meaningful, I am willing to die.A few years ago, a psychiatrist said that I could not integrate into this society. I had never entered this world. I think he was right.So my death should not affect anyone in this world, including you, Brother Xiao.If I can't come back, you can find someone to live with, okay? It's been too hard for you to live alone in the past ten years, and it will be good to find someone to accompany you.

I don't know if death will hurt, but if I close my eyes and open them again, maybe I will be a new person.If I can do it all over again, I hope I can be more ordinary, either because I don’t want to contribute, or because this life is a bit bitter.Let me say that, Brother Xiao, don't think I'm selfish.I want to call good people Mom and Dad, I want to study and go to school, I want everyone around me to be alive, I want to have no worries, I want to have the confidence to join this world, I want to sleep peacefully, very peacefully.Brother Xiao, you may not know that in these years, I have not lived a day that is completely down-to-earth.I'm not complaining, just a little reconciled.

Don't miss me if I don't come back.

All the money I saved over the years was given to Chen Qi, the man you saw talking to me outside the Maoyan Bar that night.He is also a very hard-working person, with scars on his face, it is difficult to find a job. I don't have much money, so I will give it to him.Brother Xiao, I don't have anything for you. I regret that I couldn't take a photo with you.

But that's fine too, hurry up and start a new life.

Brother Xiao, I wish you peace and joy, every step of the way, and a long life.

Brother Xiao, goodbye. "

The inscription is still the same flame, with the word "Xiaozhuo" neatly written next to it.

Xiao Guo finally couldn't suppress his crying, he knelt in front of Teng Cuo's bed, remembering the sadness and pleading of that person when he murmured "you hug me" in his arms.The autumn wind is whistling outside the window, and the sky is extremely light blue.The sun and death are the same color, as white as an old man's hair.The sun shone into Xiao Guo's eyes, everything became blurred.He stretched out his hand, his fingertips slipped in the air, and there was an indescribable pain in his chest. This was a gentle and cruel dream.

His little Zhuo, his Teng Cuo, the boy who was looking for light did not die.Under the endless publicity and madness, there is desolate loneliness and unpredictable profundity.The dark night faded into the sky, and the man grew from the decayed place where the sun could not reach, and after experiencing the countless sins in the heart of people, he survived the dark nights alone.

Xiao Guo raised his head, his eyes were lit up by the overhead light in the office.He maintained this posture, and said to Tan Yanxiao: "Take it and compare it with the note in Fan Dayuan's house, if you think it is still needed."

Tan Yanxiao piled up the letter rafts and tidied them up. Her movements were very slow, with a heavy solemnity.Then she said, "I knew it."

Xiao Guo kept his neck upright, Tan Yanxiao smiled, sighed, and said: "Teng Cuo told me not to tell you, but in fact he and I both know that it is impossible to keep it from you. He designed Such a 'misunderstanding' was only because he wanted to leave without looking back, but I didn't expect you to react so quickly."

Xiao Guo lowered his head to look at her, Tan Yanxiao repacked Teng Cuo's suicide note in an envelope and handed it back to him.Xiao Guo took it, as if touching the past ten years of Teng Miss.

Tan Yanxiao observed his expression and asked, "Why do you want to search his residence again?"

Xiao Guo raised his eyes slowly, as if he didn't understand Tan Yanxiao's question.

Tan Yanxiao asked: "In the face of such solid evidence, why are you still unwilling to accept that Teng Cuo would be a criminal?"

Xiao Guo smiled, with a sad expression on his face.He seemed to have an answer in his heart, but he didn't say it when he got to his lips, and finally shook his head.

Tan Yanxiao didn't force it, she said: "Agni is our most valuable informant, this time he became a 'fugitive', and he wanted to go to Mr. Chen's side by tying up with Lan Die. This is his own plan. Passive became active, but he also asked for two things at the same time."

She paused and said, "It's actually one thing. He asked us to keep his identity a secret from you while ensuring your safety. This matter is highly confidential. The leaders of the provincial department came just now to arrange follow-up with me." plan. Now that you know it, you too will be included in our plan."

Then she opened the folder beside her, took out a document from it, and handed it to Xiao Guo across the table.Xiao Guo flipped through the pages, and Teng Cuo's photo appeared on the first page, that face was still charming on the cold photo paper, his eyes were soft and seductive, and he was smiling at him.However, this person's soul is deep and hot, sealed in a cold chest, supported by a frail and pale body, with a hot and sincere longing for light.

Beside the photo is the information of the informant. After reading it, Xiao Guo smiled lightly.

"Teng Cuo, male, 27 years old, a chemical engineer with a mysterious background. This man has a male body and a female appearance. He comes out of the closet publicly. He often hangs around sensual places, and his behavior is perverted and violent. His real identity is our secret lurking in the 'Garden' criminal group The undercover agent will assist us in locating and destroying the group's drug production and trafficking base."

In the office of the Second Criminal Investigation Detachment of Yufang City, Xiao Guo closed the file and added a few words in his heart.

"A sweet-loving, extremely seductive little lunatic with a dark mind."

And—"I love him so much."
