Chapter 152 The Mysterious Person
"It's so late now, how much time will it take for you to send me there? You still have to run around for this case, how can you solve it if you keep going back and forth? I'm going the same way as Teacher Wu, just ask her to give me a ride, and you don't have to bother me."
Gu Nankai said something in the manner of a captain, and Wu Qingluan quickly took over the conversation when she heard what he said: "Yes, yes, I'm going the same way as him, I can just send him there, you guys are wasting time going back and forth, we still have a lot of work to do tomorrow, and it will be dawn if you keep going."
Although everyone was worried about Gu Nankai, this was also a fact. After Wu Qingluan finished speaking, everyone felt that what she said made sense. After all, this case was still in a state of confusion. Everyone wanted to go back and have a good rest before continuing to work hard tomorrow.
Gu Nankai continued to urge them, and suddenly remembered that Yang Dong seemed to be going in the same direction as them. It was already late at night, so he finally issued an ultimatum: "It's decided. Yang Dong is going the same way as us, so we'll pick him up. You should all go back home and have a good rest. We'll see you tomorrow."
Yang Dong didn't seem to expect Gu Nankai to mention him. In fact, he had already prepared to take a taxi back. Although it was not easy to get a taxi at this time, he had no intention of traveling with Gu Nankai and the others. He didn't expect that Gu Nankai would actually remember where his home was.
The young man was deeply moved.
"Captain Gu, actually I..." Even so, Yang Dong knew that this was not a reason for him to be arrogant. When he was in the hospital, he was flattered by Gu Nankai's promotion of him in front of Chen An Ning. What she didn't expect was that Gu Nankai would still remember her in such a small matter.
"Okay, get in the car!" Gu Nankai did n't give him a chance to refuse. He said it directly, and then quickly and naturally said: "Come and give me a ride, let's go home."
Yang Dong felt a lump in his heart and didn't say anything more. He quickly helped him into the car. Wu Qingluan also got in quickly. Seeing that Gu Nankai and the others' car had already started, Gao Yuan and the others didn't stay any longer.
In the car, Gu Nankai looked at Yang Dong, who was obviously a little reserved, and found it a little funny. In order to adjust the young man's mentality, he relaxed his tone and asked, "How is it, can you handle a day in the serious crime team?"
Yang Dong has been working on the front line all along, and he usually feels that he is really tired dealing with those trivial matters. But in this Chen Hui case, he has witnessed the work of Gu Nankai and others from the very beginning, and he has also seen how these people behave differently at work and in private. But what makes him feel more is the hard work of their work, which is a combination of mental and physical effort, and they have to be prepared to accept the danger of death at any time.
For the first time, he realized that the dangers and difficulties that accompanied this sacred work in his eyes could actually be so close to him.
"Captain Gu, now I understand why you asked me to learn more and do more at the grassroots level." Yang Dong smiled, looked at Gu Nankai and said sincerely.
Gu Nankai was slightly stunned, as if he was thinking about it, and soon he smiled softly: "It's good that you understand. You should know that you are more likely to find subtle differences in the trivial things in life. You can exercise a lot of skills at the grassroots level, so don't refuse, but choose to accept. In the end, you will always find that you have gained the most."
Yang Dong nodded heavily, thinking carefully about what Gu Nankai said. At this time, Wu Qingluan's voice came from the front with a chuckle: "I didn't know that Captain Gu still has the spirit of teaching tirelessly."
Gu Nankai chuckled and didn't answer, but Yang Dong couldn't wait to say, "Officer Wu, Captain Gu has had a great influence on me!"
Wu Qingluan saw the young man's excitement in the rearview mirror and knew that he had reached a level of admiration for Gu Nankai. She also laughed and said, "Then you must remember that it's okay to learn from him how to solve cases, but don't learn other aspects of his skills, otherwise you won't even be able to find a girlfriend in the future."
Yang Dong frowned, not understanding what Wu Qingluan meant. The little guy looked at Wu Qingluan, then at Gu Nankai, and wanted to ask something, but when he saw that he had already arrived, he quickly asked Wu Qingluan to stop the car.
After Wu Qingluan parked the car, Yang Dong got out and went home. When he turned the corner and could no longer see her, he started the car again and left.
After Yang Dong got off the car, only Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan were left in the car. The atmosphere suddenly fell into a weird state. The two of them tacitly stopped talking. Wu Qingluan hesitated, not knowing what to say, and Gu Nankai had the same feeling. Both of them had something on their mind, and were thinking about whether to say it out loud.
“Um…you…”
The voices rang out simultaneously in the small carriage, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward again.
"You speak first." Gu Nankai took a step back and spoke to Wu Qingluan.
Wu Qingluan still had uncertainty on her face. After thinking for a while, she pushed the conversation to Gu Nankai: "You should speak first. I haven't made up my mind yet."
Gu Nankai frowned slightly, but fell into a brief silence. Finally, he slowly spoke: "What happened today..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Qingluan corrected his mistake: "It was already yesterday."
He was slightly stunned and chuckled, "Okay, you found out something about yesterday, right?"
Wu Qingluan was driving, her body slightly stunned, the expression on her face was hard to discern. Gu Nankai couldn't see clearly what she looked like from behind. After a brief silence, Wu Qingluan hummed.
"Then don't you have anything you want to ask me?" Gu Nankai asked her.
Wu Qingluan pursed her lips, looked at the road ahead, and waited for a while before saying, "The injuries on your body are far less severe than those people's viciousness at the time."
The problem was very clear after she said that.
Then Gu Nankai heard her say, "I have seen those people, so I know they want to kill us, but Cao Cang and the others don't know that, so you can fool them, but you can't fool me. Even if your fighting skills are first-rate in the police force, with so many people attacking you, your injuries will not be just superficial like now."
Gu Nankai listened to her quietly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Of course, I won't force you if you don't want to say it." Wu Qingluan's voice became a little cold, and another sentence came from the front.
Wu Qingluan was actually a little nervous, because her hands were gripping the steering wheel with force at the moment, and she was quietly waiting for Gu Nankai's next answer.
Gu Nankai sneered in the back row: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
Wu Qingluan frowned, and before she could say anything, Gu Nankai continued, "It's just as you said. When those people joined forces, no matter how strong I was, I couldn't stop their attacks. In fact, I felt like I was going to be beaten to death by them at that time."
Hearing what Gu Nankai said, Wu Qingluan frowned.
"But a person appeared at that time." Gu Nankai said in a deep voice, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Alone?" Wu Qingluan didn't expect this to be the case, she asked back in confusion.
Gu Nankai nodded affirmatively: "Yes, a very mysterious man, fully armed, with a body shape and size similar to Li Meng, but more powerful than Li Meng. I never told you that although my fighting and grappling skills are indeed among the best, after an accident, my body, how should I put it, is far from being as obedient as I thought. But just when I was in danger, that man appeared."
Wu Qingluan was extremely shocked.
Gu Nankai added: "That person's strength is even higher than Li Meng. I intuitively think he is a very powerful person.
