Chapter 158

When Chen Pu and Li Qingyao went downstairs, Zhou Yangxin followed them.

"I'll go too," he said. "The thought of this being a serial killer will keep me awake for the rest of my life."

Chen Pu and Li Qingyao looked at each other and laughed. Chen Pu threw the keys to Zhou Yangxin: "You drive."

Zhou Yangxin was a little surprised: "Okay."

This is really rare. Chen Pu drove his own car. His car has better off-road performance, and he never reimburses for fuel and maintenance. No one has any objections when the warning lights are on. However, Chen Pu rarely lets others drive his car. Like other men, he also thinks that cars and wives cannot be lent out. But today he actually took the initiative to let Zhou Yangxin drive.

Li Qingyao got on the back seat, and Zhou Yangxin got on the driver's seat, thinking that Chen Pu would definitely sit next to him, but Chen Pu turned around and also got on the back seat. Zhou Yangxin thought it was because the back seat was spacious and good for rest, so he didn't think much about it.

It was late at night, and everyone was very tired, so no one was talking. Zhou Yangxin was completely relying on the mental opium of criminal psychology, driving in a falsely excited state.

Li Qingyao yawned.

Chen Pu said: "If you are tired, just take a nap. The journey will take an hour and a half."

"Well, you should take a nap too." Li Qingyao said.

Looking at her clear eyes, Chen Pu's mind moved, but he could only move once. So he smiled at her in the dim back row.

Li Qingyao's eyes circled his face and fell on his lips. He also smiled, closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Chen Pu tilted his head to look out the window, laughed softly and cursed, "Damn it."

Li Qingyao fell asleep peacefully. Chen Pu patted Zhou Yangxin on the shoulder and said, "You've worked hard. Come back and let me take over."

"it is good."

Chen Pu also tightened the collar of his coat, glanced at Li Qingyao who was sleeping with his head tilted to one side, crossed his arms over his chest, leaned his head back, and went to sleep.

The car drove off the elevated highway, out of Xiangcheng, and into the mountains, passing through dark mountain roads. Before we knew it, we were almost there.

Zhou Yangxin had been concentrating on driving, and now he relaxed a little and rubbed his forehead. At this moment, the car was passing through a tunnel, and it was getting darker inside the car. Zhou Yangxin glanced at the rearview mirror inadvertently, and his eyelids jumped. Then he quickly looked back to confirm, but happened to meet Chen Pu's sober eyes.

Li Qingyao's head had been sleeping on Chen Pu's shoulder. Not only that, she was lying in his arms with one hand on his chest. Chen Pu went even further, holding Li Qingyao's shoulder with one hand and holding her hand with the other.

She was asleep and he was awake, his eyes clear and motionless.

Zhou Yangxin: “…”

Chen Pu just said softly, "Don't tell anyone." As if he was afraid of waking up the person in his arms.

Zhou Yangxin: "Oh." He came back to his senses, smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Chen Pu also smiled: "Thank you."

Zhou Yangxin became depressed again and whispered, "Damn, I used to have you as my companion, but now I'm the only single guy in Team Two." Even Yan Yong has a fiancée who is his childhood sweetheart from high school and they are talking about marriage.

Chen Pu felt very comfortable. He had no sympathy for Zhou Yangxin, his former nemesis. He said in a mature manner, "What's the point of being anxious? It's not that easy to find a girlfriend."

Not long after, Li Qingyao woke up. She was startled to find herself leaning on Chen Pu's shoulder. She immediately looked up and saw Zhou Yangxin concentrating on driving. She looked at Chen Pu and asked.

Chen Pu whispered in her ear, "It's okay." Seeing that they were about to arrive, Li Qingyao didn't ask any more questions.

There were two construction vehicles parked on the road, and a team of armed police were digging. Two people from Team 10 were also there. The three got off the car, and Chen Pu asked the people from Team how the progress was. They replied that everything was going according to plan and it was expected to be open to traffic around am.

Chen Pu asked them about the situation in the mountainous area. After learning that there was a stone bridge that was destroyed by the water, Chen Pu said to Li Qingyao and the others, "Let's go over there and take a look."

It was 2 a.m. when they arrived at the stream. A bright moon hung coldly in the night sky, and the broken slabs and stones stood in all directions, silently amid the noisy and rushing rapids.

Seeing this scene, Li Qingyao and Zhou Yangxin came to the same conclusion as Fang Hao: it was indeed impossible to get through. Let's wait until the highway is cleared.

But Chen Pu rubbed his chin with his index finger and thumb and said, "I think I can pass it."

The moonlight reflected on his face, and the water flowed happily under his feet. The young man's handsome face was full of eagerness to try.

Li Qingyao was not optimistic: "How to survive? Fly?"

The cold response pleased Chen Pu's warm heart. He stretched out his hand and pinched the back of her neck: "I'll fly for you to see later."

Anyway, Zhou Yangxin knew that Chen Pu did this as he pleased. Li Qingyao's neck stiffened slightly, and he glanced at Zhou Yangxin who was smiling beside him, and sighed inwardly, OK, another clear path was passed.

Chen Pu immediately called the scenic area management office and asked for some relief supplies. These supplies were always available in the scenic area, and coincidentally, the nearest storage room in the back mountain was not far from them. Twenty minutes later, someone delivered the supplies.

Chen Pu and Zhou Yangxin first tied a power rope to a thick enough tree by the river, and tied the other end to Chen Pu's waist with a figure eight knot. Zhou Yangxin wanted to put a life jacket on him, but he waved his hand and said, "I really can't get through if I wear this thing."

Then Chen Pu carried the things he needed, such as power rope, climbing hook, rock hammer, etc., and warmed up and stretched by the river.

Li Qingyao watched from the side, his face slightly gloomy, and he didn't say anything. Zhou Yangxin saw it, walked over and said, "Don't worry, when Chen Pu graduated from the police academy, he ranked first in the physical fitness category. He also received special rescue training before, and it is said that his results blinded the eyes of the armed police. Others can't get through, but he won't."

After a pause, Zhou Yangxin said, "At worst, if he falls into the water, we can get him back. Even if he is washed away, you see the current downstream is not too fast, it won't kill him."

Li Qingyao glanced at him and said, "You are really good at comforting people."

"Just average."

While the two were talking, Chen Pu got ready, adjusted the rope around his waist, and said to them, "Then I'll go over."

"Wait a moment." Li Qingyao walked over and looked him up and down carefully. He felt that he was OK, so he looked up into his eyes and asked, "Are you sure? There will be no danger?"

Seeing the difficulty in front of him, Chen Pu's hands had been itching for a long time. He just smiled and said, "Just watch."

Li Qingyao groaned and said, "I'll record it. If you get soaked, I'll play the video over and over again every day to relive the experience, and make a short video to share in the second team group."

Chen Pu laughed loudly, lowered his head, put his hands on her shoulders, and shouted, "Zhou Yangxin, turn around."

Zhou Yangxin said "Fuck" and said, "I'm not a child." But he still turned his head to look at the lonely water surface.

Li Qingyao was also generous and put his arm around his neck. It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night and they had already left work. They could always encourage each other after work. Chen Pu kissed her and said, "I'll pick you up across the street later."

Li Qingyao said: "Be sure to pay attention to safety. If you can't get through, go back. Don't force it."

"I have my measure."
