Chapter 52 Haircut
Not long after Chi Xia returned, she received a call from Qiao Life.
After a few words, Chi Xia told Qiao Lifu: "Uncle Qiao, in order to get out of this situation, I hinted at our relationship in front of Luo Xun."
Qiao Lifu laughed at the other end of the phone: "Why hint? It's fine even if you say it explicitly. But Chi Xia, I know that Luo Xun is a stubborn kid. Are you sure it's okay?"
"No problem." Chi Xia put down his phone, turned on the speaker, and poured the sleeping soup into the bowl: "Captain Luo is a man of measure."
"Um."
Qiao Lifu thought about it and told her: "In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I have deleted all the content on the hard drive that is not related to the case. But child, before the time comes, I will remain the same and don't want you to take risks."
"I know." Chi Xia's voice softened: "Don't worry, I know my limits."
Qiao Lifei on the other end of the phone smiled, asked about her recent work, told her to take care of her health, and then hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Chi Xia looked at the intricate red lines and densely packed contents on the wall with a deep and cold gaze.
After a long while, she suddenly picked up a dart on the table and threw it over. The dart landed steadily on a big question mark.
In the brackets under the question mark, the word "murderer" was written.
She withdrew her gaze, drank the bowl of soup, got up and went back to the bedroom.
Although this night was not as restful as yesterday, it was still much better than usual. Chi Xia only woke up for about ten minutes and soon fell into a deep sleep again.
I did dream about Luo Xun.
Written on his forehead were the words "You can't escape". He was running around her like a shaman, holding the book in his hand , his messy hair fluttering in the wind. He was smiling neurotically and staring at her in her dream with ill intentions on his face.
Chi Xia thought about it over and over again in his dream, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he raised his leg and kicked the man on the head.
So annoying!
When she woke up she was still a little embarrassed. But when she was sober again, she thought it was all a dream and she wanted to go back to sleep and kick him twice more to satisfy herself.
Because of this kick, Chi Xia is in a better mood today.
I was even happier when I saw Luo Xun.
At this time, Captain Luo had a very bad face and was standing in the yard being lectured by Chang Youwei. Chi Xia listened for a while and found that the topic mainly revolved around Captain Luo's hair.
"Look, you hate going to the barber shop, why don't you just take a razor and shave it yourself, right?"
"Then I will become a bald head?" Luo Xun defended himself seriously.
"You look better with a bald head than you do now! You look like a stray dog!"
"I have a home and a job, why would I be wandering around!" Luo Xun yelled and then lowered his head.
Chang Youwei stared with his eyes wide open, and suddenly took out a pair of scissors from somewhere: "If you really can't do it, I'll do it! I'll cut it for you! I must cut it for you today!"
Luo Xun immediately took a big step back, his palms facing outward, his whole body showing resistance: "Director Chang, Director Chang, don't be impulsive, you must not be impulsive, I will cut it, I will cut it tonight!"
"I believe your lies! I'll cut it now! No discussion"
Chang Youwei moved the scissors. In Luo Xun's eyes, this action was as deadly as a scissors. He got goose bumps all over his body.
"You are thirty-two!" Chang Youwei chased him: "You are twelve years old, isn't it difficult to cut your hair?"
Luo Xun avoided him: "Director Chang, haven't you heard that some people use their whole life to heal their childhood?"
"What a shitty childhood!"
Chang Youwei stopped and put his hands on his hips: "It's just that your ears were cut by a barber when you were twelve years old. So many years have passed. Why are you so scared as a grown man?"
"If I had known I would have cut it a long time ago."
Luo Xun hid behind a pillar and begged for mercy: "Please have mercy on me and let me go. I'm in a hurry to go out on a mission! I'm busy investigating a case!"
"Cut it first! There's no need to rush for a few minutes!" Chang Youwei moved the scissors again: "You look like this and it will affect the image of the bureau!"
Luo Xun was extremely helpless, but this old man was standing alone against ten thousand men and he would not let him go today. He looked around and saw Chi Xia who was watching the fun with a smile on his face.
Meeting his gaze, Chi Xia even grinned.
It was a blatant mockery. No matter how well she pretended, it was still a blatant mockery.
But he was flexible and his eyes looked at Chi Xia for help, conveying a message to her: Save me!
What made him happy was that Chi Xia quickly received his message. She nodded and walked towards Chang Youwei.
Then she said, "Director Chang, I'm pretty good at cutting hair. Let me help Captain Luo cut his hair."
Luo Xun was struck by lightning.
Chi Xia, you are so cruel!
Chang Youwei smiled happily: "Hey, Chi Xia, that's great. I was worried that my skills were not good enough. If you can do it, come and cut his hair quickly. I have a clipper here, can you use it?"
"It's best to have one." Chi Xia took the scissors from his hand and said to Luo Xun, "Captain Luo, let's make a quick decision. We still have to go out on the field."
Luo Xun was so angry that he was fuming.
Just at this time, Zhang Jinguo also came to join in the fun: "Yes, Luo Xun, the weather is getting hot, you should be careful of heatstroke if you do this."
"Come here! Sit down and cut!"
Chang Youwei agreed with this, put the stool on the ground, and pointed at Luo Xun: "Luo Xun, I order you to come here !"
After hearing this roar, Luo Xun almost stood at attention.
Finally, he came over reluctantly.
"I really know how to cut it." Chi Xia saw that he was really resisting: "I have learned it."
Luo Xuncai didn't believe it.
Chang Youwei and Zhang Jinguo each held one side of him, pressing his shoulders and pinning him down onto a stool. Fearing that he would run away, the two men stayed put.
Chang Youwei grabbed his hair and took a look at it, then nodded and said to Chi Xia, "Xiao Xia, it's been washed, so you can cut it without worry."
Chi Xia held back his laughter and nodded.
Luo Xun didn’t know what fate was waiting for him, so he simply closed his eyes, his whole body tense.
Chi Xia really knows how to cut hair. Once, my father complained that the barber’s haircut was not good-looking, so she bought a model and designed a new hairstyle for Comrade Lin Yushan. After that, she was the one who cut my father’s hair.
When cutting Luo Xun's hair, she just thought she was facing a model.
After a few cuts, Chang Youwei and Zhang Jinguo nodded repeatedly: "Well, this girl is really good at it."
Luo Xun moved his ears, and Chi Xia discovered that there was indeed a deep scar on his right ear.
For half an hour, Luo Xun had been in a tense state. At this time, he heard Chi Xia say, "Okay."
Chang Youwei and Zhang Jinguo let go of his hands, and Luo Xun immediately jumped up like a spring and ran towards the office.
Chang You wanted to get rid of a worry, so he said to Chi Xia with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Xia. Okay, we will clean up here, and you can go to work."
Chi Xia put down the scissors and razor and entered the office building.
Zhang Jinguo swept the floor with a broom and dustpan: "This kid is getting more and more worried. Look at his hair, it has grown so long."
Chang Youwei sighed: "He hates himself in his heart. It's strange. Others get better as time goes by, but he is different. The longer time goes by, the more difficult it becomes for himself."
"Who said it wasn't true?" Zhang Jinguo straightened up and glanced at the office where the task force was located. "He can make decisions on other people's grievances, but he can't make decisions on his own sister's. It would be the same for anyone."
Chang Youwei was silent for a long while, not knowing what to say: "His parents were busy with work at that time, so he lived with his sister. Ever since he injured his ear when cutting his hair, his hair has been cut by his sister."
"People." Zhang Jinguo swept the floor clean, walked to the trash can and dumped the hair in it: "It's better to live a relaxed life. If you worry about so many things, you will collapse."
Chang Youwei nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'm going to work. You're not on duty tonight, right?"
"Yes." Zhang Jinguo asked him, "Is Director Chang free?"
Chang Youwei glared at him and said, "Director, you are making fun of me again. Wait for me after get off work and go to your house for a drink."
"Okay." Zhang Jinguo limped towards the security booth: "I'll prepare good wine and food for you!"
Although Chang Youwei was smiling, I still felt sad when I saw his back.
He was such a high-spirited man back then, isn't he making things difficult for himself?
