Li Qing was silent. Time passed by, but he didn't say a word.

Qiao Xue was impatient and said, "how about returning Molly to you?"

"OK." Li Qing answered without hesitation. Qiao Xue was stunned by such a happy and neat manner.

After a while, Qiao Xue suddenly woke up. Li Qing knew that her side would not hand over Nick, so she took the initiative to catch a big fish and took the opportunity to return to Molly. But as soon as the words were exported, there was no room for redemption. Qiao Xue had to say in a slightly unwilling whisper: "drive, director Zhou is waiting for you."

Li Qing nodded, started the car and drove onto the road. Pretending to be careless, he asked, "you just said that the recovery ability beyond ordinary people will shorten the life span. What's the matter?"

Qiao Xue seems to be still regretting her rash decision. She propped her jade arm on the window and said with a small mouth: "Human cells will not replicate indefinitely. The more cycles, the shorter the telomeres in the gene sequence. Normal people will die directly when they are seriously damaged, but Nick is different. His cells will multiply in large numbers and return to a healthy state. However, this explosive proliferation will accelerate the shortening of telomeres in genes and he will age rapidly. In other words, this powerful recovery energy Force is not infinite, it needs to be at the cost of life. "

Li Qing nodded slightly: "that is to say, if I kill him a few more times, even if he can rise again, he will die of old age in the end..."

Qiao Xue was silent for a while, and finally nodded reluctantly. She had to admit that Li Qing was right. After being hit hard by Li Qing many times, Nick's physiological state is now equivalent to that of a 45 year old middle-aged man, and his joints also have the unique inflammation of older talents. If Li Qing kills him several times, his strong recovery ability will be consumed It's all gone.

However, Qiao Xue always felt that the way Li Qing said this sentence made her very unhappy, so she deliberately warned: "don't forget, you two are almost the same. Li Qing, you won't never die."

"That's fair." Li Qing said faintly, and he already had a bottom in his heart. He doesn't mind staying with Nick for more time. The more news he knows, the more Li Qing knows about his physical condition.

"I want to get off and make a phone call." Qiao Xue suddenly said.

Li Qing silently parked her car on the roadside. Qiao Xue got out of the car, went under the billboard and took out her mobile phone to make a phone call. She dialed two calls. If Li Qing didn't expect it to be bad, the first call should be to inform people to deal with the chaos in the island cafe, and the second is to call Zhou Wenhao to report the current situation and the agreement reached with Li Qing.

With both hands on the steering wheel, Li Qingjing stares at Qiao Xue's slim and graceful figure under the billboard, and her eyes twinkle slightly. He only knows that Qiao Xue is also a power, but he doesn't know her at all. But anyway, Li Qing doesn't worry that Qiao Xue will cause trouble to herself. Instead, she thinks that the weak scholar Zhou Wenhao behind her is more difficult to deal with.

After so many years of life experience, Li Qing deeply understands that the storms formed in his mind often have unspeakable great lethality.

After calling, Qiao Xue returned to the car: "drive forward, turn left on the seventh street, go up the viaduct and turn Dongshan all the way."

Li Qing started the car and said faintly, "there is a cemetery there."

"Dead people don't eavesdrop," answered Qiao Xue.

Shrugging her shoulders, Li Qing drove to the seventh street, turned left on the viaduct, walked out of the downtown of Gangbei along the expressway, and drove to the dark Dongshan Road half an hour later.

After driving forward for a while, Li Qing saw another car on the road ahead.

Qiao Xue said, "stop here."

Parked the car on the roadside, Li Qing got out of the car, walked in along the white stone road and entered a cemetery.

"This way." suddenly there was a man's voice. Li qingxun went away and saw a vague shadow waving at him more than 20 meters away.

"Does director Zhou like to lie in such a place and count the stars?" Li Qing asked Qiao Xue not without evil interest.

Qiao Xue ignored Li Qing and walked in the direction of Zhou Wenhao, followed by Li Qing.

Zhou Wenhao was leaning against a tombstone with several empty cans at his feet. Li Qing narrowed her eyes and swept around. She was stunned to find that the goods had brought a plate of peanuts for wine and vegetables.

"I've been waiting for you for 20 minutes, but I'm almost impatient." Zhou Wenhao said with a smile and threw a can of beer to Li Qing.

Taking the beer in his hand, Li Qing said strangely, "director Zhou's treat is really creative, but compared with the previous one, I can't help wondering if you're bankrupt."

After drinking some wine, Zhou Wenhao suddenly showed some heroic scholar spirit and burst into laughter.

"Brother, take your seat." Li Qing turned and nodded at the tombstone behind him. Then he sat on the stone platform in front of the tombstone, opened the pull ring of the can, looked up and drank a beer.

"You talk slowly, I'll go around and have a look." Qiao Xue said softly, and walked around to watch the wind.

Li Qing stared at Qiao Xue's back: "have you been so careful? I've encountered some things recently and gradually realized that the dead man's mouth is not necessarily tight." Zhou Wenhao said with a smile: "it's really embarrassing to choose this place to meet Master Li so late. Although there are many meeting places we can choose, I still think it's more meaningful here." "Oh?" with a slight pick on the tip of Li Qing's eyebrows, he couldn't help looking around again. "Does this cemetery have special significance to Director Zhou?" Zhou Wenhao suddenly sighed, turned and patted the tombstone behind him: "this is the main reason why I came to Lingang." "Mr. Li doesn't know. In fact, I had a military background for several years before I entered Yanjing Judicial Bureau." Li Qing tugged at the corners of his mouth: "I really don't see it..." Zhou Wenhao naturally understood Li Qing's meaning. He immediately grinned and explained in a low voice: "it's a civilian, teaching in a political training school." "the people buried below are my last students." Zhou Wenhao looked up and breathed a sigh of relief, "He is three years older than me. He has a low level of education and is rude. However, every time he meets, he will stand at attention and salute and call the teacher. He is very polite. He envies me for my high education and culture. As for me, I also envy him for daring to think and do and his forthright temperament. We are both teachers and students and good friends. In the years after the half year training period "Ten years ago, Brigadier General Zhong Ruoxi of Longxi military region was transferred to Lingang as the director of the supervision department. At the same time, in order to consolidate the control of the troops stationed in Lingang, many young cadres of the military department were transferred to the Hong Kong army, and he was one of them." Li Qing crunched the tin in his hand and looked up at the tombstone behind Zhou Wenhao for a while. He only vaguely distinguished the two red inscriptions of Zhengjun, which should be the name of Zhou Wenhao. "In the autumn of the second year when he was transferred to the Hong Kong army, he was shot and killed. Because he was an orphan and had no relatives, his body was not returned to the mainland. Since then, he has been sleeping here." Zhou Wenhao said in a deep voice, "Look where this is? This is the most common civilian cemetery along Dongshan Road. The people buried here have experienced all kinds of life, but they are also mediocre. But I know that he is different. He should be buried in the martyrs' cemetery for people to respect. This is not where he should stay." The sound of pinching the can suddenly stopped, and Li Qing gently pursed her mouth. Through the thick night, he couldn't see the expression on Zhou Wenhao's face, but Li Qing could imagine that the latter should be quite excited at the moment. "Since he was transferred through the military headquarters, his position must be not low." Li Qing said lightly, "It's unreasonable to be buried here as an ordinary person after death." "the shooting that caused the shock of the military headquarters did not appear in the newspapers because it was too bad." Zhou Wenhao said in a deep voice, "After his death, he was accused of being involved in the arms trade of Lingang underground gangs. He was killed because of the uneven distribution of stolen goods. At that time, the situation in Lingang was volatile, and all sides demanded stability. Therefore, he only made a face-to-face investigation and hastily closed the case. The direct person in charge of handling the case more than a decade ago was major general Zhong Ruoxi." "I have always respected major general Zhong Ruoxi. Although she failed to clear the case, she did her best for it. It was she who sealed the evidence related to the case and reported it together with the investigation report that enabled me to access the files and understand what absurd things happened in those years. It was also she who chose this bone burial place for my students Although it always made me unhappy, it was the best place in the current situation. "Li Qing said in a dull voice," that's why you came to Hong Kong? "" yes, when I came to Lingang, I was not only the superior expatriate, but also I volunteered. "Zhou Wenhao said in a deep voice, "From the moment I heard of his death, I took it as my duty to eliminate the chaos in Hong Kong. After fighting for it for so many years, I finally had a chance." Li Qing was silent again. According to Zhou Wenhao, nine times out of ten his student died in the Qi family, which occupied an important position in the military and political affairs near Hong Kong. As a result, Li Qing could not know. Zhou Wenhao's new official set fire to the Qi family residence at the first time when he took office. Is it righteousness or favoritism?
