Regardless of the inside story, the sensational R&D fund embezzlement case ended hastily with "an officer surnamed Gu surrendered himself".

Gu Huaiyu was in prison and had no definite news.Reluctantly learned from fragmentary news that Gu Huaipei's plan was going well, forcing his political opponents to take the blame and resign.

But Friedrich, who caused this turmoil, has long since faded out of public view, and the news of the case review did not mention him at all.

A month later, Gu Huaiyu sat at the dining table in the prison, slightly raised his head to look at the dilapidated display screen diagonally above.

In front of him was the watery soup and the unpalatable hard bread in the prison, which took away most people's appetite just by looking at it.The anchor's voice above his head was sweet, and he was announcing that the trial of the principal culprit involved in the case would start soon.

Perhaps because the case involved so many things, the news briefly mentioned the trial arrangements, and the focus was all on discussing the Wang family who was the main culprit.

The content is boring and misses the point.Gu Huaiyu put down the spoon, got up slowly, and planned to walk back to the prison room.

The news anchor's cadenced voice was interrupted at this moment, and then he solemnly broadcast another major news break, "This station has a special news, a major car accident occurred in the suburbs of the southern district of the imperial capital, and several people were killed or injured..."

Gu Huaiyu stopped in his tracks, and turned his head to look at the screen with some interest.

The side door of the dining room suddenly opened, and two soldiers came over, mechanically conveyed the order to him, and escorted him to the secret meeting room of the prison without any explanation.

The furnishing of the meeting room is still the cold style of the Supreme Bureau of Investigation. The tables and chairs make people feel uncomfortable after sitting for a while.Gu Huaiyu sat down and waited for a while before someone opened the door and came in.

Friedrich was wearing the three-button suit he had seen at the base that day, looking mature and serious.Behind him were two assistants, put a few lunch boxes, and took them out the door.

We met again after a lapse of one month, and the atmosphere was not tense.

The two sat at opposite ends of a table, Gu Huaiyu didn't show much surprise or resentment, he was no different from the obedient and easy-going child in Fritz's memory.He said calmly, "I didn't expect that Mr. Fu would come to visit my prison."

Friedrich leaned on the back of the chair, pretending not to hear the subtle irony, pushed the exquisite meal in front of him, and said, "Since I said I would have a meal, I still count on it."

He looked at the person in front of him. Gu Huaiyu was thinner than before, his hair was longer, and the stubble on his chin seemed not to be shaved. Together, he looked pale and weak, and he was easy to control.

Because the injury on his left shoulder is still not fully healed, it is not very convenient for Gu Huaiyu to use a knife and fork.Holding the spoon in his right hand, he took a symbolic bite and put it aside without moving.

"What? Do you think the dining environment is too bad and you don't have an appetite?" said the person opposite.

Gu Huaiyu leaned back a few inches, raised his hand to straighten the messy hair on the right side of his face, shook his head and said, "I'm going back first."

When he spoke, his tone was warm and soft, hiding a taste of refusal to be thousands of miles away.Friedrich naturally sensed it, frowned and called him, "Xiao Yu."

Gu Huaiyu didn't really stand up either, he leaned on the edge of the table with one hand, turned his face and looked at the man, "Is there anything else?"

No oil and salt.

People in front of them are easily unwilling to follow other people's thinking, and it is extremely difficult to coax them.Friedrich thought for a few seconds, then said, "I'm just doing things for Gu Huaipei."

He caught a glimpse of the brown eyes shrunk slightly on the pale face, and continued, "You should be able to guess who decided to involve you in this matter."

Gu Huaiyu snorted, blinked, and leaned forward slightly, "Are you explaining to me?"

The person who was choked was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect him to ask such a question.After looking at each other for a long time, Friedrich simply admitted it.He leaned back and said lazily, "Yeah."

"I have no right to object to your brother's request just like you." He spread his hands and said, "People know the favor. I have to cooperate with your Gu family."

Gu Huaiyu's lips moved, and he sat back and asked, "Why did you leave that note?"

"That shouldn't be in my brother's plan."

Friedrich looked at him flat, with a vaguely ambiguous tone, and replied, "It's dangerous for you to stay alone in a place like no man's land."

Some parts of the words are true and some parts are false, but the tone is very well grasped, as if he is really considering how to put himself in other people's shoes.

After Fritz finished speaking, he lit a cigarette and started smoking.

The gray-blue smoke rose slowly, making it difficult for the two to see each other's expressions clearly for a while.

Gu Huaiyu seemed to be really dizzy by his few words, he lowered his head and stopped talking.Fritz smoked halfway through the cigarette, and just as he was about to stifle it out, the thin arm stretched out towards him, "Is there any more?"

Gu Huaiyu knew that he was a heavy smoker, so he must have some.

Fu Lize stood up, took out a cigarette and handed it to him, bowed and used the sparks from his own half of the cigarette to light the cigarette near Gu Huaiyu's lips.

The two faces were closer than ever, but Gu Huaiyu refused to meet his gaze, took down the cigarette with a trembling hand, and exhaled a shallow smoke ring.

Friedrich had a panoramic view of his movements, chuckled, leaned aside, and pressed the communicator behind his ear.

Over there, he briefly reported the situation to him, and said that it is best to go to the hospital to find out.

While giving an affirmative answer, Friedrich glanced at Gu Huaiyu who was always hanging his head from the corner of his eye.After finishing the communication, he put his remaining half pack of cigarettes on the table, turned around and said, "I will come again."

He opened the door, and suddenly turned around and smiled at Gu Huaiyu, "Maybe... soon, I won't need to come here to see you."

The vague words that Friedrich dropped before leaving were quickly confirmed.Gu Huaiyu, who had been in custody for more than a month and no one cared about him, suddenly became a hot and frequent visitor in the interview room of the Prison Division of the Supreme Investigation Bureau.

Most of the people who came to see him were from his father's old department. After several conversations, what happened outside gradually became clear.

The car accident in the southern area happened strangely. Gu Huaipei was in the car and was seriously injured. It took him a long time to save his life in the hospital.But it is said that the brain is injured, and it is still unknown when he will wake up.

He was lying peacefully on the hospital bed, but inside and outside the Gu family was already in chaos.

When the guards came again to escort Gu Huaiyu to see Friedrich, it was at dusk more than half a month later.It was midsummer, and he walked slowly through the long corridor with small transom windows in the prison, looking up at the sunset glow floating on the wall while walking.

The weather was hot and dry, and Gu Huaiyu had a thin layer of sweat on his chest and back.The ends of his hair were soaked in sweat and clung to his neck like a tight shackle.

Turning to the corridor where the meeting room was located, he saw Special Assistant Xu who often followed Fritz.The other party nodded to him politely and opened the door for him.

Friedrich was sitting inside waiting for him, looking tired.

Gu Huaiyu sat across from him, "What's the matter?"

This was almost the first sentence he said every day when he came to this meeting room.

"It's about Gu Huaipei," Friedrich said.

Gu Huaiyu noticed a subtle change in his wording, so he didn't speak immediately, but just nodded and said, "I know."

Friedrich stared at him, trying to see some looseness or some special movement from the face, but unfortunately Gu Huaiyu was still the same as usual, there was no wave in the stagnant water on his face.

Friedrich's sharp eyes glanced around him, and finally formally stated his intention, "Xiao Yu, do you want to go out?"

Gu Huaiyu lowered his head and didn't look at him. He didn't know what he was thinking, and answered in a low voice, "Can you help me?"

The voice is not loud, if you don't listen carefully, you will almost miss this sentence.

Friedrich thought, Gu Huaiyu really didn't have any scheming, he didn't even know how to gain the upper hand in the negotiation, so he just gave up the initiative to negotiate the terms.

He was very close to the person again like last time, but he didn't stand up straight after lighting the cigarette, and still kept a few inches away from Gu Huaiyu, exchanging smoke and breath with him, "Of course."

"But Xiaoyu, what will you give me?"

Gu Huaiyu was much calmer than last time, he smoked skillfully, and the smoke rings were blown out much more evenly.But there were tens of thousands of thunderous drums in his heart, and he couldn't stop thinking about what it was like to kiss.

That's what it is, intimacy, warmth, exchange with a little moist breath.

Gu Huaiyu had never kissed Friedrich before, so his imagination of kissing was as unstoppable as liking him.

He bit the cigarette holder and took a big drag, then said in a low voice, "What do you want?"

The answer is obvious.Fu Lize didn't take advantage of the situation to rob, and the price he offered was very reasonable, he just wanted Gu Huaiyu to help him get back what he had lost to his uncles these days.

As he expected, Gu Huaiyu agreed without hesitation.

Friedrich is very satisfied with the attitude of his new partner, "There is a lot of competition outside, and I will help you get bail as soon as possible."

"I'll pick you up in two days."

He noticed that during this sentence, Gu Huaiyu's eyes became wet again like they were at the dinner party a month ago, with a faint light that had just been ignited.

Friedrich thought it was very funny, brushed the cigarette ash with his right hand, leaned over and called him softly, "Xiao Yu?"

Together they listened to the midsummer emptiness of cicadas singing for a while, and after a long time, Friedrich finished his cigarette, stretched out his hand to brush the wet and sticky strands of hair wrapped around his neck, and said naturally, "It's time to cut it. "

Gu Huaiyu sat there motionless, and after a while he said, "Yes."
