spy on

At exactly eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, the proprietress of the small hotel in the town took the key and opened the door to the last standard room.

"This is the only room, take a look.

Air conditioning and 24-hour hot water are available.

If you can live in it, you have to pay, a deposit of 200, which is 85 per day.

How many people live there and how many ID cards they need to register.

If you feel uncomfortable sleeping in single beds next to each other, I will call my man to fix the two beds in the middle. It will be very strong."

Shen Qingrang and Fang Ning stood at the door and looked inside the house.

The lights in the room were dim, the quilts and pillows on the bed were still piled up randomly, and some unknown objects were scattered next to the trash can on the floor. It seemed that they had not been cleaned up after the last guest left.

Seeing that the two people were hesitant, the lady boss quickly added.

"The only hotels in our town that can be accommodated are small hotels like this, and usually at this time they are full of big truck drivers coming and going on the expressway. Even if you go out to look for them again, you may not be able to find a suitable one.

Maybe if I look back and try to open this one again, this one will no longer exist.”

Fang Ning sighed in compromise.

"Stop fussing, just let it be."

She turned back to look at the landlady.

"Boss, please take care of things."

The landlady immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly handed the key to Shen Qingrang.

"Okay, don't worry, our new ones are clean and disinfected four-piece sets.

You go down and register your ID card and pay the money, and I’ll take care of it right now.”

Shen Qingrang handed the key to Fang Ning again and turned to look at the landlady.

"I can't help it, it's just her.

Please change all the items and disinfect the bathroom."

The landlady was stunned, but what she was thinking was that she brought such a beautiful girl to the hotel in the middle of the night, why couldn't she stay there?

While they were stunned, the two of them had already turned around and walked downstairs.

"Are you really not going back?

How about you just listen to me and I'll borrow a car to take you to the airport tomorrow? You'd better go back to Shenzhen."

Fang Ning shook his head lightly.

“I’ll think about it again if I can’t go back.

I didn't have much interest in this trip originally. I only came because of repeated invitations from the association. I can't find reasons not to cooperate with every activity just because I took some money.

But now that such a commotion has occurred, I have begun to become curious about the people here.

As you said, it is not that no one has paid attention to these remote places in the past few years, and they have also actively tried their best to improve the lives of the locals.

But what is the reason that makes so many people so resistant? This cannot be explained by a single conservative concept.

There are also people like Jia Peng.

Is he really an old bachelor who can't stand his loneliness, or does he have some other reason to deliberately scare these young teachers who have just left school?"

Shen Qingrang frowned.

"You mean, Jia Peng is"

Fang Ning hummed.

"I can't say, it's just a feeling.

But these are all things for later, and we will wait until the person is caught.

Why don't you just stay here for the night, there are two beds anyway, and the town is so big and we can't find any empty rooms."

Shen Qingrang shook his head.

"You're right to remind me, if that's the case, I'd have to go to the police station myself.

Brother Li and Pan Zhi are determined to make this project a success, but most of the time they just muddle along and it is impossible to delve into the reasons for this.

Especially Brother Li, he was hesitant when he mentioned Jia Peng just now. He must have known something but didn't want to say it.

The teacher is one of the initiators of this event. I can't just watch this matter pass by in a daze.

We have spent all our money and this grievance is unbearable."

Shen Qingrang nodded firmly.

"You should pay more attention here. There is no need to go back these days. Leave the rest to me. If you need anything, call me.

I will go to the hospital to pay for the expenses first, and then go to the police station to meet Pan Zhi and Brother Li, who are still taking notes there.

It is estimated that after this back and forth, it will be dawn.

It would be easy for Jia Peng's grandson to hide in the mountains and try to catch him.

Brother Li has transferred a few people from several villages who are familiar with the road conditions and will gather to go into the mountains early tomorrow morning."

Fang Ning heard his firm tone and stopped trying to stop him.

"Then you should be careful in everything. The situation in the mountains here is complicated. It's best to leave everything to the local police.

And I always feel that the people in this place are weird, so this matter may not be over yet.

I'll ask the boss to leave two more empty rooms tomorrow morning. Zhao Zhiyan and another girl probably won't dare to go back to stay after their transfusion in the hospital."

Shen Qingrang raised his arms to smooth Ning's hair, and hesitated for a long time before turning around and leaving.

After Shen Qingrang left, Fang Ning waited downstairs for about ten minutes before the landlady walked down the stairs wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"Girl, clean it up.

Let me help you take your bag up."

After putting away the registered ID card, Fang Ning followed the landlady upstairs again.

At this time, the room was indeed much better than the messy scene just now. The sheets and pillows were all newly replaced, and the bathroom floor was still moist. It must have been washed recently.

"I see that you are also very particular, so I disinfected the bathroom for you.

When you take a shower, let the water run for a while before it is hot.

There are several small supermarkets and restaurants nearby that are open at night. If you want to buy something, go out from the gate and go to the right, and you will see them only twenty or thirty meters away.

Just say that you are my guest and I will give you a discount on your purchases."

Fang Ning nodded and thanked him.

"thank you."

The landlady smiled warmly.

“I’m really from a big city, and my words are so pleasant.

Okay, you can rest, I’m going down to look at the store.”

After the landlady left, Fang Ning stood in the middle of the room for a long time, still feeling that he had nowhere to stay.

Although everything in the room has been tidied up to the naked eye, there is always a bad smell everywhere.

Sighing, she pulled the scarf out of her backpack and sat down on the edge of the bed.

Then I took out my mobile phone and started to be stunned when I saw several missed call notifications on the screen.

While the police were taking notes on Fang Ning, Jia Peng ran away.

What bound his hands was Pan Zhi's waistband, which was torn off somewhere. Before he ran away, he knocked out a passing volunteer teacher.

Shen Qingrang took her, Zhao Zhiyan and the fainted teacher down the mountain in a police car.

First, he sent the two girls to a small hospital in the town, and then took her to find a place to live. After visiting several houses, he finally found the only one with an available room.

Fang Ning slowly unlocked the screen and switched back and forth between the phone and WeChat pages for a long time, without thinking about how to lobby Lu Ling.

Or tell a lie?

Fang Ning reflexively rubbed her two thumbs on the edge of the phone case. The feeling of the skin on her fingertips sinking into her eyeballs couldn't be washed away, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

While he was hesitating, the phone in his hand suddenly rang.

The three characters "Lu Lingyou" appeared on the screen so starkly that she was startled.

After taking two deep breaths and wiping his hands twice on the scarf beside him, Fang Ning pressed the answer button and pretended to be calm and gave a feed.

"Hey?"

The call finally got through, and Lu Lingyou on the other end was obviously stunned.

"You're going to hold an event and donate your phone?"

Fang Ning pursed her lips.

Somehow, it was nothing serious, but the moment I heard Lu Lingyou's voice, my nose suddenly felt sore.

"I didn't hear it, maybe the signal is not good.

Have you just gotten off work? Why are you so late?"

The other end of the phone was silent for two seconds and asked.

"What's wrong?"

Fang Ning felt that her hand holding the phone suddenly started to shake a little, and she coughed several times but couldn't make up one, two, three.

This inexplicable feeling of grievance really shouldn't happen to her now.

"Fang Ning, speak."

The corners of Fang Ning's eyes turned slightly red and she opened her mouth. Before she could say anything, several loud screams suddenly came from the next door.

"."

Lu Lingyou was packing his newly unpacked luggage when he suddenly stopped when he heard the sound.

"Not in the school dormitory?"

The screams climbed higher and louder step by step.

Fang Ning hummed awkwardly, covered the phone with one hand and replied hoarsely.

"Well, something unexpected happened.

Not staying in a dormitory, but in a hotel in a town not far away."

After thinking for a while, she quickly added.

"It's okay, I'm going to take a shower and go to bed now."

Lu Lingyou raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already past eleven o'clock. He had nothing to do so he could run out of the mountains and stay in a hotel in the middle of the night?

"Give me the name and address of the hotel."

Fang Ning didn't react for a while.

"This is a regular hotel, nothing happens, I just lock the door.

And less than a hundred meters away is the town police station."

Lu Lingyou walked to the window and opened the curtains to take a look outside.

"The police station in Liujia Town?"

Fang Ning was stunned for a moment and then stood up with a thump. The bed creaked twice with this force, matching the high-pitched rhythm next door.

"you"

Her heart was beating a little fast.

"Are you over here?"

Lu Lingyou hummed softly.

"There's some clues here. We just arrived tonight."

Fang Ning suddenly became excited for no reason. She held her phone between her face and shoulders, and quickly stuffed the scarf and charger back into her bag with both hands.

"Where are you."

Lu Lingyou frowned, as if he was trying to escape for his life when he heard the tinny voice on the other end of the phone.

"It's about a hundred meters south of the police station.

Just stay there and don't move, and send me the name of the hotel."

Fang Ning shook his head, his voice revealing some of his true emotions.

"No, I'm going to find you.

I don’t want to live here.”

She didn't care whether the other person agreed or not, she grabbed her bag and ran downstairs.

The proprietress who was watching a drama and eating melon seeds at the front desk was startled when she heard the rapid footsteps.

What's wrong with this girl? She was so tired just now but now she's very energetic. She ran downstairs with such force that she was crushing the floor.

"Hey girl, what's wrong?"

Fang Ning pressed the keys and a small pile of cash on the front desk.

"Boss, keep the room and leave two more vacancies tomorrow. Thank you."

The landlady opened her mouth in disbelief. Before she could respond urgently, the man had already opened the door and rushed out.

“Hey, you’re not a girl, why are you opening so many rooms when there are no people to live in?

Besides, it’s raining, where can you go?”

Her voice was immediately drowned in the heavy rain, and Fang Ningren disappeared.

"Good guy, do you dare to come to my place and throw some money?"

As soon as Fang Ning rushed out of the door, a crisp thunder sounded above his head.

She didn't care whether it was raining heavily or not, she looked left and right and started running.

There were not many shops still open on both sides, and not many had lights on. After running for a while, she saw a sign with a light on the right side of the road from a distance.

It was raining so hard that she couldn't open her eyes and couldn't see clearly the words on the plaque.

But no need to confirm.

Because she had already seen the eye-catching, tall, smoking figure at the door.

She quickened her pace again, until she was in front of Lu Lingyou, and then she stopped in a daze.

Lu Lingyou was also stunned.

"Don't you know there is something in this world called an umbrella?"

Fang Ning looked at Lu Lingyou's surprised and helpless face and suddenly smiled.

She was now wet all over like a drowned rat, but she was feeling happy for no reason.

"So close."

Lu Lingyou took the bag that looked like a drowned rat and also noticed the scarlet marks on her neck.

Fang Ning was still smiling and raised her hand to point in the direction behind her.

"It's really close. I was just at the house at the end of the road."

Lu Lingyou threw away the cigarette butt and stretched out his hand to wipe the rain from her face.

"Go up first."

Fang Ning obediently followed Lu Lingyou, entered the door and went up two flights of stairs.

The room he lived in was at the very back of the top floor. The room was actually not much different from the hotel she just stayed in. They both had the same cramped layout, old furnishings, and eye-catching posters of family planning supplies.

She was looking around at the furnishings in the house, and Lu Lingyou had already opened her bag and checked the contents.

The clothes in the bag were soaked, but the underwear had a sealed bag outside and could still be worn.

He pulled out the towel he just bought from the plastic bag in the supermarket nearby, covered her head and pushed her into the bathroom.

"Take a shower and change out of your wet clothes.

I'll find something for you to wear outside."

Fang Ning pursed her lips and nodded, then suddenly poked her little head out from the bathroom door.

"I can't wear synthetic clothes because I'm allergic."

Lu Lingyou snorted angrily.

She rummaged through her bag and pulled out a pure cotton T-shirt, stuffed it in along with the sealed bag containing her underwear, and then closed the door with a clang.

More than ten minutes later, Fang Ning put on the big nightgown-like T-shirt and slowly moved out of the bathroom.

"Come here." He pointed to the spot on the sofa where his coat was cushioned.

"Sit here."

Fang Ning groaned and moved over in small steps.

He sat on the coffee table opposite with his long legs propped up and a cigarette in his mouth.

"Speak now, daddy."

Fang Ning wiped his hair with a towel, thinking that he couldn't hide it since others were here, so he simply recounted what happened.

Bang, a piece of cigarette ashes accidentally fell on my pants/crotch.

Lu Lingyou quickly dusted his hands twice and said nothing for a while.

He did make a few guesses in his mind just now. He thought he suffered a bit of a dumb loss there, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

When Fang Ning saw that he was silent, he hurriedly made amends.

"It's really okay, I just pinched my neck for a while and touched it twice.

But I didn't hold back when I kicked him. I used everything you taught me before.

It is estimated that his eyes are disabled and he will never even think about it in this life."

Lu Lingyou raised his eyes to look at her, stretched out his hand to hold her chin, and looked around at the increasingly ferocious pinch marks on her neck.

Because of the large neckline of the T-shirt, I could see a few strawberry-shaped red marks on my chest when I moved.

My heart became more and more panicked.

If someone else hadn't happened to be here, Fang Ning probably wouldn't have even thought of telling him the truth on the phone.

Standing up, he pointed to the bed opposite.

"I know, let's rest first."

After saying that, he walked out the door.

Fang Ning was not sure what he meant now, so she quickly kicked off her slippers and chased him to the door.

"Why are you going? It's still raining outside."

"Buy cigarettes."

Fang Ning pulled his sleeve and turned to look at the unopened cigarette in the plastic bag on the coffee table.

"No, I'm really fine.

How could I, a psychiatrist, be affected by such a trivial matter?

And isn’t there smoke?”

Lu Lingyou turned around and looked at the green-white knuckles on his sleeves.

"Go buy something to eat."

Fang Ning shook his head and refused to let go.

"I'm not hungry. I had dinner in the school cafeteria tonight."

Lu Lingyou lowered his eyes and turned half a circle to face her, just staring.

After a long while, he hummed.

"Then, I'll go out and have a cigarette."

Fang Ning still shook his head.

"You can smoke in the room, I'm not afraid of the smell."

Lu Lingyou suddenly smiled, but his voice was surprisingly cold.

"Right.

You are an expert in emotional stability and don't have to cry for comfort like other little girls.

I am a policeman who has been working as a police officer for many years, and I cannot perform a show of incompetence and rage for you on the spot.

But you came here in the middle of the night in the rain, downplaying your grievances in front of me, and now you are holding me back and refusing to let me out.

What result do you want, and what do you want me to do?"

Fang Ning pursed her lips and turned her head away from looking at him, but she still held on to him.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Lingyou pinched her wrist and pulled out her clothes.

"Can't answer again?

Then just stay here for the next few days and think about it slowly.

I'll go next door."

Fang Ning then raised his head.

"We asked here when we were going down the mountain and there were no rooms available."

Lu Lingyou pointed to both sides of the room.

"Song Sen and Wang Zhao are on the left and right, I'll squeeze in."

Seeing that he was really about to leave, Fang Ning used all four limbs to hang himself directly on Lu Lingyou.

"no."

Lu Lingyou didn't help his hands and just hung them, while Fang Ning hung like a koala.

"Why not?

It's boring for you to be alone, just make a fuss once.

And don’t you really like watching me play this gentleman’s role now?

But Fang Ning, you know it very well, am I?

The collar of this dress is quite wide without having to pull it up, so please put it away."

He held her armpits to pull the person on her away from him, and started to leave again.

Fang Ning gritted his teeth.

I had thought about it before I came, so there was nothing to hesitate about now.

No matter whether they take the Yangguan Road or the single-plank bridge in the future, it is impossible for the two of them to leave each other alone.

Whatever.

Why can't she get what she wants?

Thinking of this, Fang Ning once again applied it to Lu Lingyou's body like a dog-skin plaster, tightening her arms around his neck.

The movement was too big, and a sharp stabbing pain suddenly came from my shoulder.

Hearing the person in his arms suddenly hiss in pain, Lu Lingyou bit his back molars and held the person firmly with one hand.

"I seemed to have pulled my shoulder when I hit someone with a stick."

Fang Ning suddenly changed his expression completely different from before, and the corners of his eyes immediately turned a little red with aggrievedness.

"A little pain."

This sudden, long-awaited act of coquettishness.

Anyone who touches it will feel a tremor in their heart.

But no one in the world knows Fang Ning's bad character better than Lu Lingyou.

Grievance is real, and coquettishness is also real.

But if she doesn't want to show these subtle emotions, she won't spit them out even to death.

To put it bluntly, the movie queen is working hard.

Although he knew the trick was deep, Lu Lingyou finally sighed and dragged him back to the sofa to sit down.

Fang Ning sat obediently on his knees, thinking eagerly for a while, then quickly picked up the cigarette case on the coffee table, pulled out a cigarette and stuffed it into Lu Lingyou's mouth, and wanted to light it for him herself.

Lu Lingyou turned his head and hid, not wanting to follow this trick at all.

"You have such a stupid mentality, can you let someone beat someone like this, but you can't yell at someone?"

Fang Ning pressed the lighter again and again.

"At that time, everyone went to the village to distribute supplies. It was after I tied his eyes that Shen Qingrang and Pan Zhi rushed back first."

Lu Lingyou raised his eyebrows.

"Who?"

Fang Ning was speechless, knowing that he had stepped on another thunderbolt.

"."

Lu Lingyou laughed so hard that her scalp went numb, and Fang Ning pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Fang Ning.

Shen Qing asked him to major in psychology, and also in criminal psychology.

The cases or prisoners he has handled may be more than those of us criminal policemen who have been working for many years.

It's impossible for him not to understand that you used his goodwill and love for you as your own refuge abroad.

But even if he is willing to fight and suffer, now, shouldn't you also accept it?

Be a kind person."

"not like this"

Fang Ning quickly raised his head and considered his words for a long time before continuing to explain.

"I admit, I did take advantage of him a little bit at the beginning.

His teacher is a well-known figure in the industry at home and abroad, and Mr. Qin is the only disciple he loves.

At that time, I was surrounded by dead ends and unfamiliar people. Whether he kept a low profile in school or continued to investigate the case later, if I could hold him back, it would only be good for me.

and"

Fang Ning turned his head and looked at the ashtray aside.

"And when I first met him, I thought he was just a playboy from a well-off family.

Who sums him up?”

This was indeed the case when I first met Shen Qingrang. He was emotionally intelligent and sociable, and there was no one in the school from all over the world that he couldn't talk to.

Who would have thought that such a versatile young man could also be a single-minded lover.

"But after he knew that I was investigating a family case, I made it clear to him."

Fang Ning looked at Lu Lingyou very seriously and solemnly.

"real.

I made it clear why I took the initiative to talk to him, why I asked him to go to the hospital to help, and I also apologized.

Later, when he wanted to help me investigate the case, I refused, and I didn’t even mention the details of the case to him.”

Seeing her looking like she was about to swear a poisonous oath, Lu Lingyou wanted to laugh, turned his head to the side and coughed.

Fang Ning held his face with both hands, turned his gaze back to her, and raised three fingers to make an oath.

"Really, Shen Qingrang and I only have pure friendship now.

Moreover, he also donated money to these schools for this charity event.

He came here on behalf of Teacher Qin, not for me."

Lu Lingyou nodded cooperatively.

"Oh, business."

Fang Ning guiltily grasped the corner of his clothes and circled it twice with her fingertips.

"That's true, it's partly my fault.

But I really made it clear to him that even without you, he and I would not be possible."

Speaking of this, Fang Ning suddenly realized something and quickly lowered his head.

"No one?"

Fang Ning's ears burned red and he gritted his teeth and stopped answering.

Lu Lingyou put his big hand on her waist, and unconsciously followed the texture of the T-shirt with his thumb.

After being silent for a long time, he gently patted the waist that was tightly grasped.

"Okay, you stay alone for a while, I'll go out and buy something."

Fang Ning's face turned even redder, and she looked nervously at the row of family planning supplies displayed on the acrylic shelves on the cabinet beside her.

Lu Lingyou suddenly understood and couldn't help laughing.

"I went out to buy medicine for bruises. Doesn't your shoulder hurt?"

Fang Ning really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, or commit suicide with her undried hair.

She wanted to stand up from his lap, but Lu Lingyou took her back and pushed her into his arms with her knees.

"What are you thinking about?"

It's all Jiang Moyu's fault. He's been feeding her rubbish all day long, saying there's definitely something wrong with them if Lu Lingyou is allowed to walk out of the room completely.

But what she said is right.

Wasn't Lu Lingyou just waiting for her to give in first?

Thinking of this, Fang Ning suddenly stopped being coy, raised his head, looked directly into Lu Lingyou's eyes, and said bluntly.

"You seem to have changed."

Lu Lingyou raised his eyebrows in an angry manner.

"Huh? Why has it changed?"

Fang Ning stretched out her hand and lightly scratched his raised Adam's apple twice with her sweaty fingertips.

"You couldn't bear it for so long before."

The dim light above the head suddenly flashed twice, seeming to be a little more impatient than the two people who were currently fighting over each other.

Lu Lingyou remained motionless, but there was a faint darkness in his eyes, and his voice was low and dry.

"Well, you have also made progress.

I wasn’t so thick-skinned before.”

Fang Ning leaned forward again, wiping the fabric of his pants and moving up.

The closer their faces got to each other, the faster their breathing became.

Fang Ning traced the bulging veins on his forehead with her fingertips, smiled and rested her head on his neck, calling his name softly into his right ear.

"Luling Tour."

This soft call came after many years.

What happened was that the world was spinning, the whole person was turned upside down and hit hard on the sofa, and there was a passionate and urgent kiss after many years.

It's two minutes later.

Lu Lingyou was hanging above, laughing heartily in his chest.

"Fang Ning, you have really improved."

He raised his bloody finger and handed it to Fang Ning.

Fang Ning covered her red cheeks with both hands.

"No, I really don't know.

My aunt is never allowed."
