The unresolved case of Huo Jiang's partner

Chapter 13 Chu Xiao

The two brothers came back from Holland and slept in the old courtyard until dark.

"Grandpa, grandma." Jiang Wuyi yawned while rubbing his chicken nest head, swinging his arms and going down the stairs, this kid didn't wear contact lenses, but put on a pair of black-rimmed frames, his skin was white and glowing, he was alive Take off the image of a melancholy otaku.

Just half a year ago, when Attorney Jiang moved back from the United States, he was still a young talent and a fashion elite, with shiny leather shoes, a neat suit, and meticulous hair.No, in less than half a year, the style of daily wear is more and more self-indulgent, and the overall style is getting closer and closer to Huo Junxi. In his words, this is called bohemian and comfortable style at home, and it is also called close to Mo Zhehei.

"Look at him." Grandma shook her head.

"Why don't you care, it's good for the young man to be sloppy, why are you so neat and tidy, the appearance of gold and jade is ruined." Grandpa doesn't care about the clothes of his grandchildren, anyway, he has always worn military uniforms all his life, and he has never had any other choice .

Grandma: "You old man, you have taken care of me the most since you were a child, and now you're messing around again."

Grandpa: "Didn't you say that, your precious grandson is back, whoever dares to make him unhappy, who are you in a hurry with?"

"Hehe, it turns out that I still have this kind of treatment, which makes me tremble every day, with a self-protection index of [-] points. Grandpa, I will not be afraid of you in the future." Jiang Wuyi picked up a cup of tea, without talking about tea drinking etiquette, and slammed , Gudong poured down directly.

"Okay, okay, okay," the old man picked up his crutches and hit Jiang Wuyi's upturned Erlang's leg with a bang: "Whether you sit or not, drink or not."

"Ah!" Jiang Wuyi immediately jumped up, clutching his leg and spinning in pain, "Grandpa, can't you be gentle? Can I still go to work tomorrow?" He complained, "Grandma, look, Grandpa is going to work again. Hit me."

Grandma pushed the reading glasses, put down the fashion magazine in her hand, and said unhurriedly: "There are still rules, and you must drink tea with a gentleman's demeanor."

Jiang Wuyi pouted and sat down: "Hmph, you have treated me like this only half a year after I came back, I think I can consider moving back to the United States."

Grandpa stared: "You dare."

Grandma nodded: "Well, old man, I think you hit it a little lightly. If your leg is broken, he won't be able to move it back."

After three seconds,

"Grandpa, grandpa, stop beating, grandma, grandma, I was wrong, can't I be wrong?"

"Do you think my old man can't touch you anymore?"

"No, no, grandpa, don't fight, I was really wrong, I will never go back to the United States, I swear, I will not go to the United States for travel."

The old man was getting old, and he taught his grandson that he was not weak at all. Jiang Wuyi was scared and ran all over the room.

"Brother, save me!" Just as Huo Junxi came down from downstairs, Jiang Wuyi finally grabbed the straw and hid behind Huo Junxi so that he could not come out.

"Grandpa, calm down, I'll help you educate him." Huo Junxi helped the old man sit down, and poured good tea for the old man.

The old man took a breath and complained to Jiang Wuyi: "If you are half as obedient as Xiaojun, my old man can close his eyes with a kick."

"Grandpa, why do you always mention it after three or forty years?" Jiang Wuyi didn't dare to move forward, rubbing his thighs and grinning.

Huo Junxi glared at Jiang Wuyi, Jiang Wuyi remembered that there was something else to say, Jiang Wuyi sang and talked to Huo Junxi to make the old man happy, finally seized an opportunity, Jiang Wuyi hurriedly said: "Grandpa, grandma, we two go out to eat at night. "

Sure enough, grandma objected: "It's hard to go home, and you are dragging Xiaojun to run outside again, you are not allowed to go."

Jiang Wuyi had no choice but to use his undefeated trump card for thousands of years. Acting like a baby in front of grandma is an absolutely feasible tactic. Jiang Wuyi hugged grandma's arm: "Grandma, I have already dated Shunzi and the others."

Huo Junxi shook his head, this kid should have a doctorate in acting, it would be a pity not to give him an Oscar statuette.

Grandma really smiled happily, but the old lady didn't seem to be caught up, she patted Jiang Wuyi's hand and said, "Good grandson, let them all go home to eat, grandma hasn't seen those children for a long time."

Jiang Wuyi felt a sense of frustration. Jiang is still old and hot. Whether or not he gets on with his grandma depends entirely on his mood, and has nothing to do with his performance level.

"Why don't you care about the young man's affairs? If you have an appointment with a buddy, how can you say that you can't go." Mr. Jiang has always thought that the loyalty of buddies is the most important thing, not to mention that Shunzi and his group of children are all old people. Looking at those who grew up, they all know the basics, and the family education is relatively strict, so they can't play any tricks.

"You are not allowed to drink when you go out, and those who drink are not allowed to drive." Mrs. Jiang simply ignored them and let them go.

The two brothers dawdled for a long time, packed up and prepared to go out.

In fact, it was Jiang Wuyi who was doing the cleaning by himself, taking a bath, applying face coverings, shaving, and changing clothes, which lasted for more than an hour.Huo Junxi knocked on the door three times, and finally couldn't help but yelled directly: "Jiang Wuyi, are you finished?"

"It's over." Jiang Wuyi opened the door with a smile, completely changed.

Huo Junxi pulled his face, it was almost frozen: "Leave when it's over. Blind and smug."

Jiang Wuyi stroked his Korean-style short hair: "How about the Korean version of Obama's style? They say that there is a beautiful little sister at night, and all the girls now eat this."

Jiang Wuyi cut this hairstyle after returning from the United States. In his own words, the fashion of Europeans and Americans is very different from that of East Asians. He must always be at the forefront of fashion.

Today, he specially matched a Korean-style dress, which was not sloppy at all from head to toe, and it really looked like that.

"Let's go." Huo Junxi turned and went downstairs.

"Drive my car?" Jiang Wuyi took his car keys.

"If you want to show off, you can drive your car, I save fuel."

Huo Junxi sat directly in the co-pilot, closed his eyes and rested his mind. He squinted for a while in the afternoon, but he didn't sleep well.

"What are you still writing on?" Huo Junxi was really angry after 5 minutes. "If you don't go, there will be a traffic jam."

Jiang Wuyi sat there and kept fiddling with his hairstyle in the rearview mirror.

"Let's go right away, what's the rush, I know." Jiang Wuyi is in a particularly good mood today. Not only is his hair combed meticulously, his clothes and shoes are high-end custom-made, he also put on the limited edition new watch and perfume that Jiang Simian gave him on his birthday a few days ago Of course, I didn’t forget to spray it, the whole car was vaguely filled with that faint fragrance.

The only thing that made Jiang Wuyi feel a little regretful was that Huo Junxi didn't even give him a birthday gift for his birthday, it's really going downhill.

Huo Junxi's reason was that he had no money.

"Forget it, I'll go back to sleep." Huo Junxi got up.

"Let's go, let's go." Jiang Wuyi started the car, and rushed out with a "buzz".

"Slow down, scare me!"

"Let's go fast for a while, and slow for a while, it's really hard to serve."

"Get off, I'll drive."

"You're late for your schedule."

"Aha?"

……

"Huo Junxi, don't play tricks, you will rub my baby car against me in a while, and I still have to drive to a date. Slow down, slow down, do you hear me?"

"Sit down, let's get started, I can't guarantee whether your car will be sent to the repair shop!"

sweat!

When Jiang Wu noticed, Shunzi and the others were already waiting for them in the box, and there were several rows of wine glasses neatly stacked on the table, a total of forty or fifty.

"Jiang Wuyi dared not go home for eight years. After returning for more than half a year, Shenlong never saw the end. Tonight, let him make up for the wine we have had every gathering in the past eight years. Don't go out if you can't finish drinking."

"Yes, after entering the door, do three rows first, and you will be fined 10 yuan for one less drink. It is said that the lawyer circle is very prosperous now, so if you don't punish him, you will punish someone."

A few people were conspiring to collude, and there was a shout at the door: "Brothers, I'm coming!"

As soon as the brothers looked up, Jiang Wuyi was standing at the door and smirking at them.

"Xiao Wu~ Come and hug me! My brother is getting more and more energetic!"

"Have you grown up, kid? Remember I was taller than you when I graduated from high school."

"Get out, I've always been taller than you, okay? I forgot when I was playing basketball to cap your hat?"

"Did you come back from America or Korea? Were you so handsome before?"

"You're a bit forgetful. I think I made an appointment for you in Class [-] back then? If I hadn't been so handsome, would you be able to watch a movie with him? Why don't you let me Buy a ticket."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, your sister-in-law is here."

"Where? Let me introduce you."

A group of people were making a fuss, when suddenly the room became quiet, Jiang Wuyi stretched his neck to take a look, Huo Junxi parked the car and came in.

"Brother Jun!"

"Brother Jun!"

"Brother Jun!"

A large group of people let go of the enthusiastic Jiang Wuyi, and stood up to greet Huo Junxi politely.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, well, let Jiang Wuyi take advantage of it again today.

Shunzi and his group are Jiang Wuyi's children, they are all younger than Huo Junxi, and have been afraid of Huo Junxi since childhood.

Huo Junxi is good at kung fu and tall, and after a few years of life-and-death teachings when he was young, he will never forget it. Moreover, Huo Junxi has a cold temper, unlike Jiang Wuyi, who is carefree and easy to get close to.Especially after he entered the Public Security Bureau, he let these young masters see him walk around, for fear of offending him by inadvertently.

Huo Junxi nodded, and looked at the wine on the table with a smile: "Everyone sit down, you are welcome. Hehe, this is all for Xiao Wu. It seems that I am the right driver today."

These words were originally a polite opening, but no matter how they sounded like a threat, don't bully my brother.

Today's game was indeed prepared for Jiang Wuyi. He lost his nerve in the wechat group in the middle of the night a few days ago, lamenting that no one celebrated his birthday.

Those few days were when Huo Junxi was in a bad mood, and he completely forgot about his birthday.In fact, even when he was not in a bad mood, Huo Junxi never celebrated his birthday at all. In Huo Junxi's words, what kind of birthday do two motherless children celebrate?

"Ahem... Brothers haven't been together for a long time. The most important thing to drink is to be happy and comfortable, not to drink more and drink less, just to tease him. Come on a few brothers, let's toast Brother Jun first."

"Brother Jingjun."

"Brother Jingjun."

……

"Okay, thank you for your face. Today I took the order of my grandfather to be the driver for this kid. I won't drink the wine. I will replace the wine with tea, and I will do it first as a respect." Applause.

"Yes, let me accompany you." Jiang Wuyi picked up a glass of wine, and the glass bottomed out.

Shunzi took his wine glass, turned it upside down and poured it upside down: "Okay, you are a good read, and you can practice your drinking well. I remember you used to pour it in a glass. Tell me honestly, don't you?" Do you often hang out in bars and catch girls?"

Jiang Wuyi leaned on the chair, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Guess?"

"Just kidding, we Xiaowu still use his good looks to go to the bar? The girls waiting in line are all from the Pacific Ocean to the Pacific Ocean."

"You are the most insightful person on this table, come on, let's go!" Jiang Wuyi picked up the wine and took another glass.

Several girls present at the party as female companions looked at each other in blank dismay. They were all stunned by Huo Junxi and Jiang Wuyi at the moment. These two masters really don't seem to be from the same world.

That "Xiao Wu" looked like a son of a rich family, with good taste and a lot of money, and his whole body was covered with limited editions, and the watch in his hand cost seven figures no matter what.

The guy called "Brother Jun" was handsome, but he was dressed in very casual clothes, but this guy was quite cold and unsmiling, and looked like a good-looking bodyguard.

"Hey, you guys, what are you looking at? I've never seen a handsome guy." Someone noticed that a few girls had eyes on Jiang Wuyi and Huo Junxi, and made a joke.

"Who hasn't seen a handsome guy, but he hasn't seen such a handsome guy, and they come as a pair." A bold girl joked.

"Damn, when you two brothers come, we're all a decoration. Come, Xiao Wu, the decorations will toast you again and make up for your birthday."

"Xiao Wu, happy birthday."

"Happy birthday."

……

It was only then that Huo Junxi remembered that Jiang Wuyi's birthday had indeed arrived. He picked up the cup and glanced at Jiang Wuyi. Jiang Wuyi was laughing and clinking glasses with everyone. His clean and fair complexion was slightly reddened by the alcohol, and his red phoenix eyes seemed to be smudged with mist. .

Jiang Wuyi used to have a moderate capacity for drinking, and he belonged to the type of pouring a glass. Now he seems to be able to take charge of the wine table. Today he is very happy, and with Huo Junxi at the bottom to carry him back, he gradually drank more and more.

"It's almost over, I have to go back to the old home today, be careful that grandpa will fix you again." Seeing that Jiang Wuyi was drinking too much, Huo Junxi reminded him in a low voice, don't go back and be scolded by grandpa.

Jiang Wuyi: "I'm happy today, brothers and sisters, let's get drunk. Anyway, we will be repaired when we go back, so just drink to your heart's content."

"No, Xiao Wu, is your old man still doing it?"

"I'm scared of that old man of yours. Do you remember that when we were in junior high school, because we dug out a bird's nest, he chased us all over the street with a whip and scared me to death."

"There was another time when you and Chu Xiao sneaked out to a bar to drink, and were beaten half to death by the old man. Chu Xiao was so frightened that he didn't dare to go home for three days, for fear that your grandfather would ask the Chu family to settle the score."

"Hahaha, that time was perfect. It's a pity that Chu Xiao didn't come today. That kid can drink, and he can definitely knock you down."

Jiang Wuyi picked up the wine glass: "Drink as long as you drink, why mention the past!" Huo Junxi annoyed Chu Xiao the most, Jiang Wuyi never dared to mention Chu Xiao's name in front of him.

They didn't know that once Chu Xiao was beaten up by Huo Junxi because he went to a bar to drink with Jiang Wuyi. After that, the Jiang family strictly prohibited Jiang Wuyi from getting involved with Chu Xiao.After that, Jiang Wuyi never dared to play with Chu Xiao again, even when he saw him playing basketball, he hurried to take a detour.

"Yeah, don't mention Chu Xiao soon, he is being locked up, and it looks like he won't be able to get out for a while."

"Prisoned again? Their old man has ignored him for a long time. What kind of moth is he doing this time? Since he was a child, he has been the most troublesome?"

"It's not a small matter this time... It's not their old man who locked him up."

"Drink, drink, drink today, let's talk about those messy things later." Shunzi interrupted their conversation.

Shunzi knew that Jiang Wuyi and Chu Xiao didn't talk to each other after middle school, and Huo Junxi bothered Chu Xiao the most, so he just stopped talking.

"Hehe, look at your mysteriousness. What is he doing that is so shocking? Is it possible that he killed someone?" Jiang Wuyi felt that they were all classmates before, and it seemed too stingy not to mention their names. , He was also a little drunk at the moment, so he said so casually.

The people at the table suddenly became dumb, and all of them had strange expressions.

"It can't be true, right? Don't scare me." Chu Xiao was a little unreliable, but Jiang Wuyi had the impression that he would do something slightly out of line, not too much.

"He deserves to be unlucky. I thought I wouldn't spoil your interest today, but now that you're a lawyer, Brother Jun is here, so you can give me some advice to see if there is room for maneuver."

The Chu family started with finance. Mr. Chu is a troublesome master. He has been married and divorced four or five times, and has a dozen children.

Chu Xiao was the third child at home, and his mother was not very well received by the old man, so he also did not receive him very much.Chu Xiao didn't bother to fight, so he simply started his own company after graduation, and he did well.

Unexpectedly, he was involved in a rape case recently. The other party was an [-]th-line female artist with a history of drug abuse. Hasn't it been six or seven days since he went in and there was no movement.

"It might be a little out of character to say that Chu Xiao is out of tune, but rape is really not something he can do, and murder is even more unreliable. Is there any girl he wants to find? Does it need to be so hard? Besides, he doesn't treat women... Well, anyway, he just stays in there now. After Chu Xiao went in, Shunzi and I went to visit him once, and the old man didn't care much about it. Right now, his mother alone will help him find a lawyer to Zhang Luo for bail."

Shunzi said: "He told us that he was tricked by Immortal Tiao, but now the evidence is particularly against him."

Jiang Wuyi asked: "How is that girl?" He hangs high.

Shunzi: "I'm not out of danger yet, it's said that it's relatively close."

Jiang Wuyi asked Huo Junxi: "Brother, have you heard about this?"

Huo Junxi is not an unreasonable person, and he doesn't care about the old sesame seeds and rotten millet with Chu Xiao.

Huo Junxi thought for a while: "I really haven't heard of it. I'll inquire tomorrow."

Huo Junxi hasn't seen Chu Xiao in ten years. When he was in school, he was tired of playing games with Jiang Wuyi in Jiang's house every day. Later, he even tricked Jiang Wuyi to go to the bar to drink. Ever since Huo Junxi annoyed him once, he later I will never come to Jiang's house again.

But no matter what, Huo Junxi felt that Chu Xiao didn't seem to have the guts to kill people. Who knows, after ten years, everyone is changing, and years of experience in handling cases told Huo Junxi that it is difficult for criminals to use their appearance. It is judged that after many cases are solved, the real suspects are surprising.

Jiang Wuyi said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Shunzi: "Didn't it mean that you have been abroad for the past few days? We will wait for you to come back and discuss with you."

Jiang Wuyi: "I'll go see him tomorrow, but there is really no suitable lawyer, so I'll take this case." Jiang Wuyi picked up a glass of wine and got bored, and everyone lost interest, so they just broke up.

"You are too impulsive." On the way home, Huo Junxi mentioned Chu Xiao's matter, "If you take the case without investigation, you may fall into a trap."

Jiang Wuyi shook his head: "It's okay."

Huo Junxi: "I am acting on my will."

Jiang Wuyi: "Using emotions? Huo Junxi, this is not like what you said. Who knew that I was bullied by senior classmates back then, and they directly beat people into the school doctor's office with a stick."

"Can it be the same? How old was it then, how old is it now. You can't listen to what you say now. Go see Chu Xiao tomorrow, and I will understand the situation clearly before making a decision."

It is true that Huo Junxi is not a person who is afraid of troubles, but it will be different if Jiang Wuyi is involved in what matters.

"Thank you brother, I knew you were the best for me." Jiang Wuyi hugged Huo Junxi excitedly. This man is really handsome. He would stand behind him to support him since he was a child.

Huo Junxi: "Don't come here, I just help you understand the facts of the case, so that you can have a solid foundation in your heart."

"I know, I know, brother is the best." Jiang Wuyi quickly flattered and followed, after all, Huo Junxi still protected himself.

If it were any other man on this earth who would flirt with Huo Junxi every now and then, Huo Junxi would definitely kick him out without hesitation.Not only the earth, but also men from alien planets, it's too fucking disgusting.

However, there is an exception to everything, and Jiang Wuyi has had this special treatment since he was a child.
