[In order to meet the word count as soon as possible today and tomorrow, the next three days will be updated at 12 noon, and will resume the update at 8 o'clock every night on the 13th. I hope you know, Momo!]
Tang Hongye and Du Juan hurried back to the square in front of the train station, but they found the remaining two people who followed Du Juan without much effort. The main reason was that the two people did not walk around, and just guarded their suitcases in the square, waiting for them to find them back.
The two men and women who came with Du Juan were both colleagues from the same unit. However, unlike Du Juan, Du Juan was formally transferred, while they were temporarily seconded, and their work relationship was still in their original unit and they still had to go back sooner or later. Tang Hongye met them for the first time. His attitude was a little more polite and enthusiastic than Du Juan, his childhood sweetheart.
The male colleague who came with Du Juan was named Huang Shuai. He was not very tall. He probably passed the enrollment physical examination and could pass the height line almost almost. When standing with Tang Hongye, Huang Shuai's figure seemed a bit solid, with a round head and a pair of round eyes. He looked like a very honest person. Faced with Tang Hongye's repeated apology, Huang Shuai showed an open-minded attitude and said it was okay. If he hadn't been too much of his luggage, he would have rushed up to help.
The other female colleague named Yin Mei, facing the apology expressed by Tang Hongye, only looked dull and pulled the corners of her mouth in a hurry, shook her head and said it didn't matter, and she didn't say much.
How did Tang Hongye think about being a policeman with such a timid personality? However, out of politeness, he certainly would not ask this question. Since everyone has arrived, the next task is naturally to settle these three people first, especially Huang Shuai and Yin Mei who were seconded.
Tang Hongye took them to the parking lot and helped them put their luggage into the trunk of their car. Then he drove Huang Shuai and Yin Mei to the guesthouse that the Public Security Bureau had already booked for them. Although the environment here is not as luxurious as the hotel outside, after all, being seconded is not solved in just a few days like a business trip, so the expenses need to be taken into account. More importantly, the guesthouse is closer to the Public Security Bureau, and there is also a very simple open kitchenette in each room, with a small induction cooker that can be used for people to cook simply. For those who need to live for a while, it is naturally much more practical than a hotel.
Huang Shuai and Yin Mei's room had been booked long ago, so when he arrived at the guesthouse, Tang Hongye helped them complete the procedures and delivered their luggage to the room. After doing these things, he realized that the luggage was actually belonged to these two people at the station just now, and Du Juan's luggage was only the crossbody bag he carried with him.
"Where is your stuff? How did you solve your accommodation problem here?" Tang Hongye asked in confusion.
Du Juan shook her head: "I don't know. My parents, uncles and aunts said that I will be here for a long time in the future. I need to bring too much luggage. I don't let me take it with me and I have to express it for me. I also said that they have arranged everything and told me not to care about anything. Just come here. I haven't made any clear problems yet."
When Tang Hongye heard this, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition. Before he could ask Du Juan anything, his cell phone rang. He answered and learned that the other party was a courier, and told him that there were many boxes of things that he needed to sign for and were about to deliver to his residence.
Tang Hongye felt something was wrong, so he greeted Huang Shuai and Yin Mei and asked them to settle down first and rest. He called Du Juan to hurry to drive to the residence. When he got there, the courier happened to catch the delivery truck and also arrived downstairs. The courier unloaded eight large cartons from the car in one breath. Tang Hongye moved four of them upstairs, and the other four boxes were taken up by Du Juan himself. After moving them into the door, the two opened the boxes and saw that they were indeed Du Juan's luggage.
Tang Hongye called his mother without saying a word and asked why Du Juan's luggage was packed and sent to her residence. Tang's mother answered this question on the phone very immense.
"Where will I send it to you if I don't send it to you? Du Juan is a little girl. She is a newcomer and unfamiliar place. It's so unreliable. Our family is an old neighbor, an old neighbor, and a good friend. Can you not take care of this kind of thing? Isn't your house a two-bedroom apartment? It's just right, you and Du Juan's room. In this way, your father and I can give an explanation to the Uncle Du's family." said Tang's mother.
"You have an explanation to Uncle Du, but don't you need to explain to me? Why do you want to live here forever? Du Juan's strange strength, who can hurt her? If she doesn't accidentally hurt others, it's considered burning incense?" Tang Hongye glanced at Du Juan, who had just moved four boxes and went upstairs, but he didn't see much tiredness. His eyebrows were just tied a knot in the middle of his forehead. "I don't agree anyway! I object!"
"The objection is invalid!" Tang's mother responded firmly, "Why do you think we bought you such a big house? Isn't it just... Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense to you. Anyway, Du Juan and the things are on your side, so you have to take good care of it. If you do something to disobey me, be careful that your father and I will sell the house for you and let you sleep on the road! Du Juan is such a good girl. She is beautiful and has a good personality. She is better than you in everything. She hasn't even disliked you yet, so you should..."
"Okay, okay, mom, let's talk about this matter again. My unit called me. Maybe there was something urgent, so I'll hang up first!" Although Tang Hongye didn't like to listen to his mother's nagging, he was not perfunctory this time, but his other work phone was ringing constantly.
After finishing the call with her mother, Tang Hongye hurriedly answered the work call. When he answered the call, Du Juan was also worried. She knew the little thoughts of her parents and the Tang family's parents, and also knew the intention and kindness they arranged in this way. But she inexplicably stuffed herself into Tang Hongye's home. Thinking about it from the perspective of others, it seemed a bit abrupt, which made people not so easily accept. She was also unwilling to leave herself in other people's homes as if she was a burden. Although it was indeed more opportunities to get along with Tang Hongye, which was indeed in line with her expectations.
"Okay, I understand. Let's go and arrive as soon as possible. I will meet with the others there again." Tang Hongye's phone call was very concise, but his attitude was very serious.
"Is there any case? Can I go with me?" Du Juan asked quickly. On the one hand, her personality is a type that is more idle. On the other hand, the current situation clearly shows that Tang Hongye does not welcome her, the "invader", to live in with a bunch of luggage. If Tang Hongye is on the scene now, then her stay and stay is a little embarrassing. It's better to just ask and see if she can go with me. Anyway, since she has been transferred, she will be integrated into her work sooner or later.
Tang Hongye was also a little unsure. He knew that there were other cases in the team that were under investigation and the staff was not particularly sufficient. Team Yang said on the phone that he would try to draw others over. Although he was a little resistant to Du Juan's arrival, Du Juan's performance in his original unit was so remarkable. He also heard about it. He should be able to act as a helper if she followed her. However, Du Juan had just arrived here and had not completed some of the procedures for joining the company. He did not dare to make a promise if this was possible.
To be on the safe side, he called Yang Cheng to ask about his opinions. After getting Yang Cheng's approval, he nodded to Du Juan and signaled her to set off with him.
Du Juan took the bag she carried with her off her and put it on the ground. Without saying a word, she followed Tang Hongye. Fortunately, when she came to City A, she chose to wear jeans and T-shirts for the convenience of taking the bus. Now she is wearing this outfit and going to Tang Hongye to appear on the scene.
On the first day of her official stay in City A, Du Juan caught up with the work task of the new unit. Du Juan followed Tang Hongye downstairs to pick up the car and felt a little excited. She looked at Tang Hongye, who was walking in front of her, about one head higher than her. The turmoil in her heart surged a little, and she felt a little mixed.
This time, he turned his bets to him, and I don’t know whether it was right or wrong.
Tang Hongye didn't know that Du Juan was in a state of twists and turns behind him. He only knew that although Du Juan's arrival was like putting huge pressure on him, now that Team Yang has agreed to take Du Juan over to act as a helper, he must introduce to her what he had just learned on the phone.
"Just just now, someone reported the case to a village below and found a dead person. The local police station and the district branch had visited the scene. The situation was said to be a bit strange, so he moved to the city bureau." He opened the car door and sat in, and said to Du Juan, who followed him into the passenger seat, "The deceased died in a small warehouse in his house. The window was sealed from the outside, but the door was locked from the inside."
"Is it the so-called secret room?" Du Juan asked a little surprised.
