Reborn in 1993, Dark Sea

"An Xiaohai."

A soft call interrupted An Xiaohai's thoughts. An Xiaohai looked up and saw that it was Xia Jing. She pushed the door of the detention cell open a crack and seemed to be holding something in her hands.

The detention cell was too dark, and the corridor outside was too bright. An Xiaohai could only see Xia Qing's silhouette, but he couldn't make out what she was holding.

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"An Xiaohai, the director has taken Captain Cao and Captain Wang on a mission. It's already past 7 o'clock. I saw that you haven't had dinner yet, so I made you some wontons."

"Is it already past 7 o'clock?" An Xiaohai was a little surprised. He had been thinking and hadn't noticed the passage of time. Before he knew it, several hours had passed.

"Yes, it's already past 7 o'clock. Before Director Zhou left, he asked me to stay and look after you. I noticed you were thinking about something, so I didn't disturb you."

But it's already past 7 o'clock, so I..."

"Oh, okay, give it to me. I'm a little hungry. Thank you!" An Xiaohai said with a slight smile.

Xia Qing breathed a sigh of relief, walked in, and handed the lunchbox in her hand to An Xiaohai. An Xiaohai didn't say much, opened the lunchbox, and started eating.

Since that operation, Xia Qing's opinion of An Xiaohai has been completely changed.

Xia Qing participated in the operation a little more than the others. After summarizing the information from various sources, Xia Qing vaguely guessed the whole picture of the operation and had a completely new understanding of An Xiaohai's identity.

The more Xia Qing recalled that operation, the more intense the shock became! Xia Qing simply couldn't imagine how An Xiaohai had planned such a complex operation.

Moreover, on the day of the operation, An Xiaohai commanded with composure, and with the concerted efforts of so many departments, the enemy was completely outmaneuvered.

Just thinking about this feeling makes Xia Qing so excited that she can't sleep all night!

When Xia Qing first joined the police force, Wang Tiejun asked her to be An Xiaohai's contact person, but An Xiaohai later refused. It's impossible for Xia Qing not to be angry about this.

Xia Qing has rarely been rejected in her life, especially by men.

But now, that little bit of resentment has long since vanished without a trace, and Xia Qing feels ashamed whenever she thinks about it. Compared to this junior brother who is a few years younger than her, she is indeed far inferior.

An Xiaohai ate very quickly, and Xia Qing only had time to think about random things for a short while before An Xiaohai had already finished more than half of the wontons in his lunchbox.

"Xia Qing, did you bring your phone?"

"What?" Xia Qing was taken aback by An Xiaohai's sudden question.

"I asked you if you had your phone on you, not your work phone, but your personal phone."

"I brought it..." Xia Qing nodded gently, her cheeks inexplicably feeling hot.

"Can I borrow your phone?"

"Okay," Xia Qing quickly took out her phone and handed it over.

An Xiaohai took the phone, which had a sweet, girlish scent. He didn't notice it at all; he just quickly dialed a number and put the phone to his ear.

After the phone rang five or six times, Pan Zhuangzhuang answered it.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

"Pan Zhuangzhuang, that's me, An Xiaohai."

It's getting a bit cold, and my mom asked me to bring a thick quilt to Xuan'er. I was planning to go today, but something unexpected happened, and I was detained by the police.

Go to my house and get me a blanket to take to Xuan'er. Ask my mom to come with you; it's not convenient for you to go up to the girls' dormitory, so have my mom bring it up, understand?

"Understood. Leave it to me. Do you need me to go to the police station to bail you out after this is all over?"

"Get lost, it's not necessary."

"Then I'll hang up."

"Okay, hang up."

An Xiaohai hung up the phone, thought for a moment, and then dialed Kunji's number again.

"Who are you?" Kun Ji asked arrogantly.

"It's me. Are you two together? Where are you now?"

"Big brother! Haha! Why did you change your phone number? I'm with Ah Lai, we're in the city now. What's up? Is there anything we can do for you?"

"Do you have anything particularly important to do right now?"

"No, we've finished everything today, nothing's wrong. We're playing cards at the hotel now."

"Alright, I'm being held at the Municipal Public Security Bureau. You need to take a taxi here right now and tell them you're looking for me and want to see me."

They will definitely refuse you. You just sit at the reception desk and wait for me. Don't leave unless it's something very important. Wait until I come out, understand?

"Understood, we're coming right now!"

After hanging up the phone, An Xiaohai frowned, thought for a moment, and then made a third call.

"Hello! This is Peng Li. May I ask who you are?"

Ali's formal, scholarly question came through the phone, almost making An Xiaohai choke on his wonton: "Ali, it's me. Why are you talking so strangely?"

"Ah! It's the boss. Did you change your phone number?"

"No, this is a friend's phone number."

"Oh, I see. I thought the boss changed his phone number! Boss, didn't you say we're all bosses now? So naturally I have to be polite!"

……

"Alright, are all the brothers here?"

"Boss, everyone's here. Just say the word if you need anything!"

"Okay, I'm currently being detained at the Municipal Public Security Bureau. You all need to call all your closest brothers and have them wait for me at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau."

"Hey! Boss, you got arrested by the police? Wait here, we're coming to rescue you!"

"What the hell are you talking about?!" An Xiaohai was in a real bind. "Listen to me carefully. You guys, immediately call all your closest brothers and wait for me at the entrance of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Don't bring any weapons, and absolutely no trouble!"

Just wait quietly at the main gate. If anyone tries to drive you away, don't fight them. Just stay away and wait for them to leave before coming over.

The most important thing you must remember: you must find a place where you can be seen by the surveillance cameras outside the police station, understand?

"Got it, boss, I understand!" Ali was stunned for a moment, but finally realized what was going on.

"Alright, hurry up and get over here. You can make a big scene, but absolutely no trouble. Wear more clothes, and get some food for the brothers. Don't leave until I come out, understand?"

"Understood, boss, don't worry!"

After hanging up the phone, An Xiaohai breathed a sigh of relief. He returned the phone to Xia Qing and then quickly finished the rest of the wontons.

"It tastes great, thank you again. Please wash the dishes!" An Xiaohai said with a smile as he handed the lunchbox back to Xia Qing.

The pink plastic lunchbox clearly belonged to Xia Qing herself.

"You're welcome! An Xiaohai, I'm the one who should thank you. Thank you for letting me participate in the last operation..."

"Shh!~"

Before Xia Qing could finish speaking, An Xiaohai pressed his index finger to his lips to make a shushing gesture.

"Forget about that operation, just pretend it never happened."

"Okay... Oh, I'm sorry!"

Xia Qing stuck out her tongue, feeling a pang of discomfort in her heart!

I'm so curious! I really want to have a good chat with An Xiaohai about that operation... but judging from An Xiaohai's expression, I definitely can't bring it up again...

Xia Qing knew in her heart that An Xiaohai was right, but she just couldn't help thinking about it.

"Well... I'm leaving."

"Okay, thanks again!" An Xiaohai nodded with a smile.

Xia Qing picked up the lunchbox, turned around and left, but when she reached the door, she heard An Xiaohai calling her. Xia Qing quickly turned around.

"Xia Qing, is your phone number very important?"

"This...it's not important, I just picked the number randomly," Xia Qing said, not expecting An Xiaohai to stop her and ask such a question.

"Change it."

"What?"

"You'd better change your phone number."

"Change your phone number..." Xia Qing tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded gently: "Okay, I understand, I will change it."

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's okay, then...I'm leaving."

"goodbye."

Xia Qing closed the door behind her, lowered her head slightly, covered her chest, and left. After she walked away, the door to the detention cell next door was gently opened.

Liu Cong slowly walked out of the detention cell. He glanced at the cell next to An Xiaohai's, then looked back at the direction Xia Jing had left in, his eyes filled with suspicion.
