Balancing

The city, which has been washed by rain for a week, shines crystal clear under the long-lost sun. The scent of grass that has disappeared for a long time permeates the surrounding air, revealing a trace of sweetness. The glass windows on both sides of the street are illuminated like a piece of A mirror reflects the comfortable and bright faces of passers-by on the road.

Lu Heng, who was still lying on the bed, was woken up by the noise outside the window. He hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time. The coolness came out from his pores. He closed his eyes and listened to the noise outside as music. There should be some uncles there. Walking the birds, there are twittering birds chirping in the sound of laughter, and intermittent children's crying, laughing, barking, and... Which girl is walking the dog, saying "Don't run, Come back" screamed heart-piercingly, woof woof woof...

It's so beautiful.

Lu Heng rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, opened them reluctantly, sat down and lit a cigarette, and stared blankly.

Suddenly, I remembered that my uncle asked him to go to the team to find him at noon, and he kindly asked him to ask for leave from the unit. He took the phone and checked the time. It was still enough for a shower and a meal.While thinking, a beautiful leap jumped off the bed.

When he opened the curtains, a blinding white light rushed over his face. He closed his eyes reflexively and blocked it with his hands, but his body was warmed by the sunlight.After adapting to the light, look out the window. The window is facing the main exit road of the community, extending straight for a long distance without any bends. The view is very high-end. Compared with the grade of this community, it is already worth the money.

Thinking of going to the SWAT team, Lu Heng specially chose a neat and elegant dress today.

Just as I was about to go downstairs, I heard a "ding" notification tone on the phone, "Xiaoheng, I will be at the gate of your community in 5 minutes." It was a message from my uncle.

Why did he come here? Didn't he go to the team?

Lu Heng has kissed this uncle since he was a child, not only because he is his mother's favorite brother.After the father passed away, the helpless and helpless mother had been taken care of by this uncle. At that time, he had only joined the army for a few years, and almost all of his meager monthly salary was sent to them. I don't know how he survived.

Lu Heng was also afraid of this uncle, because for a long time, he was like a signboard, guiding and influencing every choice he made, almost never daring to make mistakes in front of him, wishing to step on his mark with every foot Let's go, until that mission three years ago...

Just as Lu Heng walked to the gate of the community, Gu Tao, who was wearing a special police uniform, was already leaning against the car door and waiting for him.

"Hey, Captain Gu, are you so energetic today?" Lu Heng has long been used to this name during those years in the SWAT team, and he often couldn't change it in private, so he simply kept calling it that way.

"Haha, I went to the city for a meeting in the morning, so I didn't have time to change." Gu Tao knew that he was referring to the uniform that he didn't usually wear when going out. "Get in the car, I'll take you to a place." Then he opened the door and sat on it.

Lu Heng was very surprised by Gu Tao's mysterious behavior, and asked: "Where are you going? Didn't you tell me to join the team?" In fact, I really wanted to go to the team to see those brothers who were born and died, although every time After returning, I will be lost for several days.

"I won't go today, let's have a meal with me." Gu Tao turned his head and looked at Lu Heng with a scrutinizing look.

"That's right, this outfit looks nice and handsome." There was a conspiratorial smile on his lips.

Lu Heng had a vague premonition that something was not going well.

"How are you doing recently? From Lao Jiang's point of view, he is quite wronged." Gu Tao looked at the front and drove at a constant speed.

"Isn't he always wronged? If I don't leave for a day, he will be wronged every day."

Gu Tao laughed out loud, "What are you doing to him? I don't want to see you so much?"

"Annoyance, let's not talk about him, uncle, when can I go back to the team?" Lu Heng called uncle very affectionately.

It's not that Gu Tao doesn't want to take this nephew with him, but it's really distressing to see him trembling and his limbs trembling when holding a gun.

"Xiaoheng, Lao Jiang probably told me about your current situation. Although you are not as aggressive as you were back then, you know whether you are thorough. You fell in the head, you have to cooperate with the treatment, I want you to come back sooner than anyone else." Gu Tao turned the steering wheel and drove into an extraordinary restaurant.

"I also have nightmares occasionally. Is there anything wrong with me? If you let me go to the team to practice two shots someday, I can do it." Lu Heng knew that he was still worried about his reaction when he took the gun, but he still wanted to Try hard.

Gu Tao found a parking space, stopped the car, turned off the engine, turned sideways with one hand on the steering wheel and one hand on Lu Heng's shoulder, "I believe in professionalism. Lu Heng, when will your rehabilitation assessment report be handed over to me? , I promise to put on the police rank for you personally." His eyes were solemn and firm.

Lu Heng didn't speak any more, and sighed heavily.

"By the way, did Lao Jiang tell you about letting his son take over from him?" After getting out of the car, Gu Tao suddenly turned around and asked.

"Son?" Lu Heng was startled, and stared at Gu Tao with rounded eyes.

Jian Ming?Is it Lao Jiang's son?No, his surname is Jane, he was changed temporarily?Lu Heng pondered back and forth in his mind for a long time.

"Well, you still don't know about this? Blame me. I should have told you earlier. His son should have just returned to China. When Lao Jiang sent the materials that day, the above qualifications and resumes surprised us. It seems to be something... Yale University in the United States What... Ph.D. students, and I have participated in several so-called..." Gu Tao stopped, tapped his forehead, tried to remember, but finally gave up.

For him who stayed in the small army and hadn't studied for a few years, it was very strenuous to just read the densely packed words on the stack of materials.

"Anyway, it's quite...an awesome man, his name is Jian Ming, I remember this." After speaking, he started to walk into the hotel.

Is it really Jian Ming?Lu Heng was surprised.That overly handsome face appeared in my mind.

I still remember that day when Jian Ming was about to leave the consultation center, Jian Ming looked at him with breathtaking eyes like a perspective instrument.After that, he didn't ask anything, and directly issued a medicine order and asked him to go to the hospital to get the medicine.At that time, I was still confused, and I only remembered the last sentence he said.

"Come to see me next Tuesday. I don't accept any reason not to come. If you don't come, I will go directly to the police force to find you."

Lu Heng was distracted all the way, and when he entered the box of the restaurant, he came to his senses.But it seems...too late.

There was a large round table that could seat at least twenty people, eighteen of which were empty. My aunt was sitting facing the door with a big smile on her face, and beside her was a young girl who looked gentle, average-looking, and temperamental. It's not bad, he looks like a scholarly family, when he saw him and Gu Tao coming in, he immediately got up shyly to say hello.

"Hi, uncle."

His eyes moved to Lu Heng's side, he paused, and his voice dropped a decibel, "Um... hello".

Oh, this is not the meaning of my name?Okay, it seems that I can't run today.Lu Heng thought to himself.

It's just... the blind date banquet is too extravagant, Captain Gu and his wife are really willing to spend money.

"Xiaoheng, come and sit here. Let me introduce you. This is Liu Dan, the daughter of Dean Liu of our Southern District Court. She is the Dean Liu who visited our house during the Chinese New Year last time. Do you remember?" the aunt called He Sisi, in her [-]s, is good at everything, but she always likes to follow young girls chasing celebrities and gossip. Recently, I don't know where I am empty, and I am actually obsessed with the work of soliciting matchmakers and securing lines.

"I don't remember." Lu Heng didn't go there, and sat down next to the seat outside the door, his cold tone made the scene a little awkward.He took out his mobile phone and lowered his head to send Gu Tao a message, "Captain Gu, what's the situation? Don't tell me you were coerced."

Gu Tao's cell phone vibrated on the table, but he didn't look at it.After exchanging a few simple greetings, they all pointed at his wife to smooth things over.

With He Sisi at the dinner, there was actually no need to worry about being left alone, so after the meal, Lu Heng didn't say a word, but everyone ate well.

When walking out of the hotel, He Sisi angrily whispered in Lu Heng's ear, "Stinky boy, you'll be a bachelor for the rest of your life," and took the girl away after saying that.

"Captain Gu, don't attack so suddenly next time, it's scary." Lu Heng followed Gu Tao and prepared to go to pick up the car together.

Gu Tao turned his head and looked at him, "Tell me, will you come? It doesn't mean that you will behave like this."

"I don't want to be in a relationship."

This is true.Looking back on the past many years, Lu Heng really never thought about this kind of thought. He didn't know if he was in the police academy and then in the police force. He was surrounded by rough old men. Anyway, girls are involved in this matter. , he has no pursuit at all.

However, when I was in high school, I really teased a cute little squad leader, but I graduated and went my separate ways.

"I heard about your... situation, it might be good to have a relationship. I also consulted Lao Jiang, and he said that it would really help, so why don't you try?" Gu Tao felt that this nephew was getting more and more stubborn, I used to listen to myself more than a child.

"I don't believe this, Captain Gu, you believe me, I will definitely let you personally give me the police rank this time." Lu Heng suddenly approached Gu Tao, looking at him with a solemn expression, as serious as a military order .
