"Don't talk nonsense. If you don't mind living too long, don't ask too much. Nolan Lampson said coldly.

"Tsk, so cold and heartless."

The doctor unbuttoned his white coat and elegantly crossed his legs in the back seat.

"When I went there, Amos was still having a nightmare. I heard him say 'Cheng Ling, leave me alone'. Cheng Ling - is it your arrogant former captain you told me about before? Didn't you often complain to me about how ruthless she was when training people, just like treating steel? She died, you were freed, you didn't have to endure her hellish special training, and you became the new captain. Shouldn't you be happy?"

"Damn it! How could I be happy! I wish I could die with her! "Nolan Lampson punched the steering wheel, and the car whistled sharply. The pedestrians on the street were startled and pointed at the car that was driving away and cursed.

"Die together?" The doctor's tone was not at all tactful, "You are too slow. You just like her. You have dated so many girls, don't you know what love is?"

"I don't know. It's too late now, everything is over. She's dead... These days, I haven't seen her in my dreams for a day... I regret it so much. The last time I saw her, I was arguing with her and said she was conceited. The saddest thing is that I later found out that she was right."

Nolan's voice was hoarse, and the veins on the back of his hand holding the steering wheel were throbbing.

"I wanted to come back and apologize to her, but... I buried her with my own eyes. She... Such a powerful person, broken like a rag doll cut by a lawn mower, the top embalmer couldn't sew her up. ”

“Amos told me that she and the drug lord died together. I thought he was joking... but she was really dead. It was broken into so many pieces that I couldn't pick them all up..."

The doctor's eyes behind the glasses flashed a sharpness: "Since she is dead, why are you still investigating Amos? Are you suspicious of something?"

“Doctor, you are such a talkative guy."

“I can't help it. Life in the United States is too boring. I can find some new and interesting things here. I am a very qualified listener. If you tell me, maybe I can find something you overlooked."

Nolan licked his lips: "I'm afraid I can't go on without the strongest whiskey."

“Tsk,” the doctor took off his gold-rimmed glasses and put them in the glasses case in his bag. "It is agreed that this part is not included in the commission you give me."

Nolan took out a handful of banknotes from his chest pocket and threw them into the back seat without even looking at them. "Are these enough! "

The doctor was not angry. He bent down and picked up the bills one by one. "Whoever hates money is a fool! No one can be trusted, only money can be trusted..."

The doctor kissed the bill he picked up and said seriously: "Money will not betray you. Ten dollars is ten dollars. You don't have to imagine that it will become a hundred dollars, nor do you have to worry about it becoming one dollar. It is there, forever unchanged."

Ten minutes later, the two sat in the doctor's private wine cellar.

"30-year Macallan." The doctor took out a bottle with a silver deer head from the wine cabinet, and took out a few ice balls from the freezer and put them into the whiskey glass.

The amber liquor collided with the beautiful ice balls in the glass, making a pleasant sound.

The doctor poured two glasses and handed one to Noah.

Nolan raised his head and drank it all.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't waste my famous wine like this!"

"I have already spent money. I want to drink it. That's my freedom. "Nolan drank a glass of wine, his eyes became darker.

"Drink slowly," the doctor poured another glass for Nolan distressedly.

This time Nolan didn't drink it all in one gulp. He took a small sip, letting the alcohol numb his tongue, and said bitterly: "I may be crazy... I always feel that she is not dead... She always said that she wanted freedom. I even guessed that she used the bomb to escape. In the end, I secretly took a piece of her tissue and did a DNA comparison..."

The doctor didn't ask the result.

Tears slid down the corners of Nolan's eyes.

"This shouldn't be her ending. She should be as free as the wind, and no one can stop her. Instead of lying in a hard marble coffin! "He roared.

This was the first time the doctor saw Nolan cry.

In his heart, Nolan was a tough guy.

The doctor waited quietly for him to calm down.

Nolan quickly regained his composure and took another sip of wine.

I don't know if it was because of the wine or something else, but his voice was a little nasal.

"I also suspect that she died so tragically, was it to cover up the wound and hide the real cause of her death? This thought lingers in my mind. "

"So, you started investigating Amos?"

"Amos has been having nightmares recently and can't eat. He said he missed Cheng Ling too much... But I always feel that his sadness is a bit of a performance... Of course, everything is my guess. I can't investigate directly."

"I advise you to be cautious and never let Amos see that you are doubting him." The doctor said seriously, "He is a tough guy."

"I know." Nolan put down the wine glass, looked at the doctor, and said lightly, "But I can't stop the crazy thoughts in my heart. I want to find out the cause of Cheng Ling's death. Even if it will bring me into big trouble... Do you think I'm stupid?"

“Maybe.” The doctor also took a sip of wine, “But I believe that if there are more stupid people like you in this world, it will definitely be a better place.”

Nolan clinked glasses with the doctor.

“To this fucking world.”

“To this fucking world.” The doctor took a sip, “What are your plans next?”

“Find a way to secretly investigate without attracting Amos’s attention. As far as I know, Cheng Ling met a teammate the night before she died. I want to talk to this teammate.”

“Seeing how hard you work, Ling in heaven will surely be touched.”

Nolan smiled bitterly, “That woman will not be touched. She is a heartless person! You don’t know that when she trained me, she almost tortured me to death. It was a hellish devil training...”

The doctor silently added wine.

The next two or three hours will be the same as before, Nolan complaining about how crazy Cheng Ling is, how desperate she is, how iron-fisted she is, and how outrageous she is.

The doctor listened silently, and a trace of yearning emerged in his heart.

It's a pity that she didn't know this amazing and interesting person when she was alive.

*

Cheng Ling opened her eyes.

She had a melancholy dream.

In the dream, she was still the captain of the special forces, sitting around the fire with her teammates in the dense forest, talking nonsense.

They can also barbecue, but it is definitely not so delicate and elegant.

A group of rough men and women just cut the meat with knives and put it on the fire casually, regardless of whether some places were burnt black or some places were bloody, and they didn't bother to season it, just sprinkle some sea salt and put it in their mouths.

Bitter, really bitter.

But it also makes people miss it.

Should I secretly see how they are doing?

Cheng Ling thought.

Or just take a look.

Just one look.
