Roadside, small restaurant.

After ordering a table of dishes and a bottle of white wine, Ling Yi quickly helped Li Chengfeng and I fill a glass each, and then ordered a can of coconut juice for herself.

"Here we come, let's have a drink first." Li Chengfeng said.

I raised the cup and drank it all in one gulp. The hot liquid suddenly entered my throat, and I choked and almost coughed up.

Without even eating the food, Li Chengfeng continued to ask Ling Yi to pour the wine.

The second cup, the third cup, just drink it dry.

It wasn't until he had finished five glasses of wine that he put down his glass and said, "If you have any unpleasant feelings, you can tell me now. I promise I won't be angry."

I smiled: "No more."

"Hahaha~~~" He also laughed, looked at me, then looked at Ling Yi, and said: "This stall in Qiuli District will be supported by the two of you from now on. Mr. Luo Ju, there are many

I’m not so motivated anymore to do things.”

I frowned and said, "You are the director of the Public Security Bureau. Why do you need to go there in person when you can solve the problem with just a phone call?"

"no way."

He smiled bitterly: "One thing goes up and another goes down. Do you think I can really command this group of people while sitting in the provincial office? Ding Muchen, look at me, I am sitting here before I am thirty years old this year.

Position, and which director below is not more senior than me? To put it bluntly, if I want to really get things done, I must hire my own people."

Ling Yi smiled and said: "So, Captain Ding and I will be considered members of Hall Li from now on?"

"You can say that."

Li Chengfeng said calmly: "If you have any important matters, you can contact me directly, but you must also take care of the relationship with the branch. After all, you still belong to the branch."

After saying that, he paused and said, "I came to Suzhou this time for another reason."

"What's up?"

"Visit Lu Chen."

I was stunned: "How... is Lu Chen doing?"

Li Chengfeng's eyes turned red, and the hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, saying: "The second attack was even more serious. Now his body is very weak and he needs to rest for a long time. Fortunately, Lin Yixin and He Yi are with him.

"

"Lu Chen is lucky and will get better." I said softly.

"Um."

Li Chengfeng took a deep breath and said: "Because of Lu Chen's health, he didn't enter "Tianxing" at all. The burden as big as the Ancient Sword Soul Dream can only be carried by me, Gui Guzi, and Bei Mingxue. In addition,

Most of my energy is actually devoted to work, so my level is very low. I am only level 62 now. Ding Muchen, how old are you?"

"Level 66."

"Damn." He touched his nose and said, "That Jinxihexi from Julu City, is that you, right?"

"Well, how did you know?" I asked with a smile.

He also laughed: "There are not many people who can play knights to this level in the national server. Guiguzi is in Gujian, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties are in Hunter Moon Dynasty, so you, the Beichen Riding God, are the only one left wandering in the wild."

"Returning to the police force..." I pondered and said, "Procrastinate it if you can. I enjoy my life now and fight in the game with everyone. I'm afraid that once I really return to the police force, this kind of thing will happen."

The days are gone and never come back.”

"Can."

He nodded: "This matter is not urgent. In short, I leave it to you and Ling Yi. I will give you all the power you can use."

Ling Yi smiled and said: "Don't worry, even the list of members of the action team hasn't been drawn up yet. I just let you know in advance. You don't have to worry."

"Well, that's good, keep drinking."

"drink!"

…

After drinking until after eight o'clock, Li Chengfeng took a taxi and drove away. He had to rush back for a meeting.

Standing on the roadside, wisps of rain suddenly drifted in the sky. The first autumn rain came, and it felt cool on my face. I raised my head, looked at the dark night sky, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly I woke up from the drunkenness.

A few points.

"Is it okay?"

Ling Yi held my arm and chuckled: "You can't drive anymore. Where do you live? I'll take you back, right? After I drop you off, I'll take a taxi back."

I turned to look at her and asked, "Ling Yi, do you think I should come back?"

She opened her beautiful eyes and looked at me: "Yes, because we all need you."

I was stunned, took out the car keys and threw them to her: "Let's go, take me back."

"Um."

When she returned to the studio, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. From outside, she could see the lights from upstairs shining in the woods. Ling Yi couldn't help but tilted her head and smiled: "Wow, the place you live in is really luxurious. Being a professional player is indeed better.

Being a police officer makes a lot of money~~~”

I couldn't help but laugh: "Ling Yi, have you played "Tian Xing"?"

"Not yet, I can't afford a helmet~~~"

"Damn, stop pretending, your family is so rich."

"..."

I parked the car and stood downstairs until Ling Yi's taxi came over. I watched her get in the car before I walked into the studio.

I just felt my head was groggy, so I didn't bother anyone and went back to my room to wash up and sleep.

…

The next morning, after an autumn rain, the weather became much cooler. The air was filled with the fragrance of jungle and lake water. The moment I opened the window, I felt refreshed. After washing up, I went out for a quick five-kilometer run. I felt great after running.

After sweating, we returned to the studio. Everyone got up at this time. Su Xiran ordered breakfast and ate together.

"Aren't there any fried dough sticks? I want to eat fried dough sticks. Xiao Che, come with me to the street across the street to buy some." I said suddenly.

Lin Che was so smart, she smiled slightly: "Let's go."

Come outside and walk on the forest path.

"Tell me, Brother Chen, what's the matter?"

"Li Chengfeng came to see me yesterday. He planned to set up a special operations team and asked me to recall you at the same time. I don't know what you mean?"

"Ah?" He was surprised: "Have you forgotten about Sister Yiran? What did you do wrong? I gave you a serious punishment and detained you for a month, and now you want us to go back?"

"The past is past, we still have to look forward."

Lin Che took a deep breath: "I don't care. In short, if you go back, I will follow you back. But this time, no matter what happens, we brothers will bear it together."

"Well, let's take it together!"

"Hey, let's go buy fried dough sticks!"

"I bought shit and went back. Why are you eating such greasy dough sticks so early in the morning? Just tell them that the fried dough sticks are sold out."

"Damn, I'm mentally prepared to eat fried dough sticks!"

…

After dinner, Su Xiran and Xu Jiacheng were all dressed up and ready to go online. I was a little surprised: "Did you put on lipstick before going online?"

"Yes!" Su Xiran chuckled: "Fighting monsters beautifully, maybe there will be a bonus to the explosion rate."

Xu Jiacheng smiled and said: "Boss, will you level up with us today?"

"No."

I shook my head: "I'll go solo today and see if I can catch a decent phantom beast for you. Chengcheng, your equipment and skills are fine, even if the phantom beast is too weak and needs to be strengthened."

"Thank you in advance!"

online.

"Swipe" a ray of light flew away and appeared in Julu City. The old rules were to repair the equipment, replenish the blood recovery powder and Qi Gathering Powder, then summon the ghost war horse, leave Julu City at lightning speed, rush straight into the butterfly forest, all the way to

North, I galloped to the vicinity of the Ganhe River, and saw an NPC army building a pontoon bridge on the Ganhe River. They used warships to transport troops before, but this time they directly used the pontoon bridge. Rows of heavy cavalry were advancing into the Ganhe River from the built pontoon bridge.

North of the river.

I also blended into the crowd and crossed the river from the pontoon.

At this point, the map north of the Jianhe River should have been fully opened to players. I have even found a team of leveling teams in the Crystal Forest. The average level of mainstream first-line players has reached level 60, and they can form teams.

Leveled up in the contested territory.

Not far away, a group of people appeared in the dense forest ahead, bearing the title of Dynasty Hegemony Team.

I immediately entered the dense forest on one side and walked forward quietly. When I got closer, I discovered that Liu Qiang was among them. There were about thirty people in the group. They advanced straight into the depths of the crystal forest. Even their chat could be heard clearly.

clear.
