Li Xin'er's home is as neatly organized as his office. The magazines on the coffee table are all sorted into categories and placed on the lower level. Above is a fruit basket and storage rack. The fruit basket contains a bunch of green grapes and three apples. Dragon fruit, some dried fruits in the bag on the shelf, remote controls for household appliances are placed next to it, and there is also a set of purple sand tea sets for entertaining guests.
Recalling Mary's messy living room in "Eavesdropping", the corners of Lin Yue's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. After he finished rummaging through the shelves, he took out the remote control of the TV and turned on the power.
The initial channel was Phoenix TV, which was broadcasting current affairs news during this time period. He changed down several channels and stopped at Asia Television Hong Kong.
Li Xin'er looked at him with a smile on her face. When she came to her own home, she came to her own home. She just said openly that she wanted to come to her home to have a look. What was the result? With such a poor excuse, she wanted to see what Inspector Lin could do with watching TV.
When the clock hand pointed at the number "7", the screen flashed after the skin care product advertisement ended, and two big words popped up - Warning.
Then came the plainclothes female inspector with a great figure and the male senior inspector in uniform.
The two simply greeted the audience in front of the TV and talked about some recent hot events in the Hong Kong police system. Then they changed the subject and talked about a drug trafficking case that occurred last year, and then talked about organized crime and three crimes. Popular science from the Hehui Investigation Section.
In order to let everyone understand the work of this department more intuitively, the Police News has brought a short drama adapted from a real case.
Before the video started to play, multiple clips of less than five seconds flashed, including scenes of drug traffickers meeting, drug addicts suffering pain, and upright plainclothes police detectives quickly attacking...
When Li Xin'er saw the man walking at the front of the police detective team, his eyes widened.
Because in the short film, the protagonist with a revolver in his hand and an energetic appearance was sitting next to her, watching TV with a smile on his face, and putting the spaghetti bolognese she made into his mouth with a fork.
"You...you were on "The Alert"?"
Now she knew why Lin Yue used watching TV as an excuse to come to her house.
He really wanted to take her to watch TV.
A corny excuse, a lame excuse?
No, not at all, this guy really got good at "watching TV".
"Yes, because we were pressed for time, the production team reduced the content that could be shot from two episodes to one episode. When Sir Huang found out about this, he even complained."
Lin Yue took out a piece of tissue and wiped his mouth: "How about it, am I photogenic?"
More than just being on camera, from the beginning of the short film when he entered the serious crime team, to receiving the case information from the female police officer, to holding a combat meeting, and then leading the police officers to carry out operations, his aura and acting skills were so strong that people thought he was a police officer. An excellent actor who has been doing this for many years.
Li Xin'er held his hand: "You acted really well."
"Of course, I'm going to act like myself."
In fact, not only is he acting in his true colors, but he is also acting in his own profession. Inspector Lin has been a promising actor for more than a year, and with the bonuses of [I am an Actor LV3] and [Teacher's Killer LV2], conquering female audiences is something that is easy to do, isn't it?
"Fortunately, there is only one episode. If you have to act in a few more episodes, I'm afraid a talent scout will come and look for you to make a movie."
Lin Yue smiled and shook his head: "Actually, it's all because of you that I took the exam for inspector and got into the "Police News"."
"because I?"
"Yes, you are so good. If I am just a little policeman, how can I be worthy of you?"
Li Xin'er knows that those who can be on "Police News" are all rising stars who are favored by the top brass of the police force. As long as no major changes occur, their subsequent promotions will be given the green light.
Lin Yue always spoke in a toneless manner, but he could always stir up her emotions when he suddenly said something serious.
"Actually, I really don't mind who you are."
"It's your business if you don't mind. It's my business whether you are proactive and have a correct attitude."
Li Xin'er stretched out her fingers to press his mouth: "A man's sweet words."
Lin Yue leaned towards her finger: "Sweet words? This is not sweet talk. If you like it, I will tell you another day, but today..."
"What...what are you going to do today?"
"Didn't I just say that? If you guess wrong, you will be punished."
"Don't...don't be on the sofa, the curtains...the curtains are not..."
…
Two hours later, Lin Yue got off the double bed, walked to the window with a glass of water, looked at the city that never sleeps opposite, and swallowed a large amount of water.
Li Xin'er leaned against the bed board and looked at the tall figure in the dim light. I don't know why, but I always felt that there were many stories hidden in that body, which accumulated all the tastes of life. At this time, he had something that was inconsistent with his age... How should I put it? ? It is an indescribable temperament, or magnetic field.
If there is another cigarette, or a light splash of whiskey in the glass.
She shook her head, wondering why she had such strange thoughts?
This question flashed through her mind, and she smiled helplessly. It seemed that she had really fallen in love with the man in front of the window who was sometimes indifferent and sometimes very interesting, and it was always unpredictable.
She is a psychiatrist. She understands this feeling better than ordinary people and has more authority to define this feeling.
"What are you looking at?"
Lin Yue took a sip of water and said slowly: "Go over."
"past?"
"Um."
…
On the morning of March 20th.
Apliu Street, Sham Shui Po, Kowloon.
The pink wall has become mottled due to the erosion of the rain. Below it are electrical appliance store signs that can't be reached into the center of the street. The most common ones have red letters on a white background, but there are also white letters on a black background, and eye-catching rich gold backgrounds.
The streets are crowded with people, and the shelves of roadside stores are filled with a dazzling array of CDs, tapes, headphones, mice, and cameras. Stores selling mobile phones will be deeper, because some business must go into the inner room to discuss.
Lin Yue met the person he wanted to see in the "Xiangwei Audio" store.
Liu Jianming was stunned as soon as he entered the door: "Lin Yue from the crime team?"
Standing among a bunch of loudspeakers, Lin Yue straightened up and pretended to be surprised: "Officer CIB Liu."
Liu Jianming said: "What a coincidence, you also come to see the stereo?"
"The speaker at my girlfriend's house is broken. I came over here to take a look."
"How's it going? Did you choose the one you like?"
Lin Yue pointed to a pair of speakers on his right: "The boss recommended this one and I'm about to give it a try. What about you? Are you here to buy speakers too?"
Liu Jianming said: "Yes, Mary and I have moved to a new home and want to buy a better set of speakers."
"Mr. Lin, I found the song you chose." At this time, the owner of the audio store with a Mediterranean hairstyle turned around and made an OK gesture.
Lin Yue pointed to the sofa behind and the two sat down.
Who is knocking on my window~
Who is playing the strings~
That period of time, forgotten~
Gradually it comes back to my heart~
…
Liu Jianming was stunned for a moment: "You also like to listen to this song?"
Lin Yue said: "Ten years ago, the woman who lived above my house played this song every day, and then I fell in love with it. Why, Sir Liu also likes to listen to it?"
"Yes, I like listening to it." Liu Jianming said: "This kind of old song has high requirements on the machine."
Lin Yue pointed to the speakers in front and said: "I think this pair of speakers is pretty good. The treble is sweet, the midrange is precise, and the bass is steady. In two words, transparent."
Liu Jianming was stunned again. He recalled the experience just now and felt like he had seen a ghost.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yue saw that his face was not good and asked worriedly.
"No, it's nothing? I just feel that your words are strangely familiar."
"Has anyone else said something like this to you?"
"Just now, the place where I bought the tube amp."
"It seems that I am quite destined to be with that person."
Liu Jianming smiled.
At this time the boss came over and asked him: "How is it?"
"Yes, I want it." Lin Yue said to Liu Jianming, "What about you?"
Liu Jianming stood up and said, "Boss, if I want a set too, is there any discount?"
The middle-aged man looked thoughtful.
"Aren called me here and said it would be cheaper to mention his name."
"In that case, I'll give you a 10% discount."
Liu Jianming nodded and was about to pay when Lin Yue spoke.
"Wait a minute, since it was introduced by an acquaintance, why is it only a 10% discount? I also know the Aren he mentioned. Are we all friends who came to take care of your business? What do you think? Are you familiar with me?"
The boss looked embarrassed: "That's 15% off."
"Twenty percent off, or tell Aren that you won't give him face."
"Okay, 20% off is 20% off." The boss gritted his teeth and ordered the boy who was organizing the audio cables to go to the warehouse to pick up the goods. He walked to the counter and issued the invoices to Lin Yue and Liu Jianming.
Ten minutes later, the two walked out of the store holding the speakers.
Liu Jianming said: "How did you get here?"
Lin Yue said: "I came here by taxi."
"I drove here to give you a ride?"
"OK."
The two put the speakers into the trunk, and Liu Jianming drove away from Apliu Street.
"So you know Aren."
Lin Yue shook his head: "Who is Aren? I don't know him."
Liu Jianming glanced sideways at him: "Then just now..."
After saying this, he suddenly woke up, pointed at him and said, "Sir Lin, you are so cunning."
"I saved you thousands of dollars, but instead of saying thank you, you still call me cunning. Sir Liu, you can't behave like this."
"Am I not driving you home?"
Lin Yue stretched out his finger and pointed at him, showing an intriguing smile.
Isn't it appropriate to repay someone with a few thousand dollars for taking away their opportunity to appear on "The Alert"? What's more... he didn't come here specifically to get close to Liu Jianming.
