catch the dream

Chapter 148

Yu Hao vaguely sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, it seemed that there was a secret rivalry between Lin Ze and Huang Ting, and Lin Ze was not in a good mood today, his attitude became more serious, although his face was as usual, his brows were slightly furrowed.Seeing Yu Hao glance at Lin Ze, Situ Ye nudged him and said, "You are busy with your work."

At [-]:[-], Yu Hao packaged the pictures and sent them to the cloud, put away his computer, went out with Huang Ting, and said goodbye to them.

"Call me anytime if you have anything to do." Before going out, Lin Zebi made a gesture.

"Okay." Yu Hao knew that sentence, it was Lin Ze who said it to Huang Ting.

There was a motorcycle parked outside the office, Huang Ting handed Yu Hao the helmet.

"Is it Zhou Sheng?" Yu Hao said.

"Zhou Sheng is on a business trip," Huang Ting replied, "I won't be in Beijing for two days."

Yu Hao: "..."

Yu Hao looked at Huang Ting, Huang Ting motioned, "Let's go?"

Yu Hao looked down at his phone, Zhou Sheng sent him a message: [Honey, I went to Baoding on a two-day business trip to help investigate an economic dispute, and I came back on the evening of the ninth day of the lunar new year. 】

"What day is it today?" Yu Hao said.

"Chu Qi, what's the matter?" Seeing that Yu Hao didn't get in the car, Huang Ting just waited.

Yu Hao asked suspiciously, "Where do you want to take me?"

Yu Hao couldn't see Huang Ting's expression clearly in his helmet, but he could see a smile in his eyes.Huang Ting said, "Are you afraid that I will lock you up?"

Yu Hao knew that it shouldn't happen, unless the central government directly ordered Lin Ze to be fearless, if he was really going to be locked up, Qinghua Times would not let Huang Ting go so easily.In just a moment, Yu Hao thought of Zhou Sheng's words again. In his plan, there were some things that required Yu Hao's unknowing cooperation in order to deceive the whole group of people.

"All right." Yu Hao replied, put on his helmet, and stepped onto the back seat of Huang Ting's motorcycle.

"When is Liqun coming to Beijing?" Huang Ting asked with his driving skills steady.

Yu Hao replied, "Tomorrow night."

Huang Ting said, "Be careful."

"I'm paying attention." Yu Hao said.

"This is a hint that you hold me tight." Huang Ting said, "Afraid that Zhou Sheng will be jealous? It doesn't matter that he can't see the surveillance cameras at the intersection."

Yu Hao originally wanted to sit up straight, but Huang Ting's car had to bend slightly, and Yu Hao would be blown violently by the wind if he sat up straight, so he had to bend down slightly, holding Huang Ting's waist temporarily.Huang Ting turned around a few roads, chose a spacious one, and increased his speed. It seemed that he planned to leave Beijing.

"Nicky didn't look for you?" Huang Ting said.

Huang Ting's windbreaker was buttoned tightly, showing a slim waistline, and his legs were straight. When I met him in Nanlu a few years ago, Yu Hao didn't take a closer look at him. He felt that he had lost a lot of weight since he came to Beijing. He sat in the office for a long time , the skin is also much whiter.

"We made an appointment to have dinner together in a few days." Yu Hao said.

"Xiao Ou is going too?" Huang Ting asked casually, "When will your party take care of the civil servants who get up early and go into the dark?"

Yu Hao: "I called you several times, but you didn't come by yourself."

Huang Ting said, "So you stopped barking, I'm very sad."

Yu Hao sighed and said, "Usually when the word 'thank you' is scratched out of a prize, it won't be scratched again. This is human nature."

Yu Hao kept looking at the road, while Huang Ting drove his motorcycle, turned into an alley, stopped outside a small three-story building, took off his gloves, and parked the car.After entering the building, where there was heating, Yu Hao saw a few muscular men with shirtless shirts and long trousers, walking up and down the corridor, and greeting Huang Ting from time to time.

"My brother." Huang Ting introduced to them.

"Yo, your brother is working as a reporter."

"How many brothers do you have?"

Huang Ting: "Everyone in the world is a younger brother."

Huang Ting took out the key to open the door, Yu Hao said, "Yo, Qihang has been here too, more than once?"

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, brother Xiao Yu. Do I look like a bad person?"

Huang Ting's place was not as big as the living room of Yu Hao's house. The living room was tidy, like a staff dormitory shared by several people. Huang Ting said, "Don't touch their things, the people living here are all expatriates."

In this living room with three bedrooms and one living room, there is nothing at all, only a coffee table and a sofa.The playing cards are stored in a transparent box, and several police uniforms are hanging on the balcony.

Huang Ting took out another key, opened the door, and said to Yu Hao, "Come into my room."

"Go to bed, quick."

"..."

"You can lie down if you want."

Yu Hao followed Huang Ting into his bedroom. The bedroom was even smaller. There was only a bed, a small refrigerator, no windows, and posters on the wall.Huang Ting asked Yu Hao to take off his shoes and sit on the bed, while he went out to change his clothes. Yu Hao looked at the bookshelf, there were many photos on it.There are photos of him with the leader, some with Shi Ni, Liang Jinmin and Chen Yekai, and Ou Qihang outside the Forbidden City... It should be that Huang Ting took Ou Qihang out to play when he first came to Beijing to go to university.

A group photo of the three-person basketball team, a group photo with Chen Yekai on an outing in junior high school...

And that picture of each of them—backstage at the Academy celebration.

Yu Hao had folded it back then and put it in the music box that Zhou Sheng gave him, Zhou Sheng's was in his wallet, Fu Liqun's was hanging on a rope at home, Ou Qihang and Chen Yekai didn't know how they kept it, Huang Ting Then I made a picture frame and put it on the bookshelf.

Yu Hao opened the bookshelf, saw a corner of a photo exposed in the row of books, and pulled it out. On it was a photo of Xiao Yujun taking a photo by the river, and Huang Ting secretly took a photo of her beside him.

Yu Hao heard Huang Ting's cough coming from the hall, so he quickly stuffed the photos back and closed the bookshelf door.

Huang Ting brought some fresh-keeping boxes from outside and came in for Yu Hao to look at: "Hot pot? I'll wash the vegetables."

Yu Hao has always liked eating hot pot, so he said, "I'll come."

"I heard that Zhou Sheng's cooking is delicious." Huang Ting followed Yu Hao to the kitchen, "You should have been taught well."

"The kitchen is a sacred place for Zhou Sheng." Yu Hao smiled, "I try to avoid causing trouble for him, but the preparation of dishes is okay. According to his evaluation, it can barely be used."

Yu Hao took the vegetables to wash. Huang Ting's hot pot was very simple, only a lot of beef and mutton rolls plus fresh Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum.But the simplest ingredients can restore the deepest and most original experience of "eating".Of course, this must also be fresh ingredients.Yu Hao took a look at the vegetables that Huang Ting bought at noon, the ingredients were pretty good, the fat cow and the fat sheep had distinct layers of fat and lean, and the Chrysanthemum chrysanthemum was picked fresh in the morning.

Meanwhile, Zhou Sheng sent him a message, and Yu Hao answered truthfully, and began to mix fermented bean curd, sesame paste and chili sauce.Zhou Sheng didn't ask a single question, Yu Hao gave him a cryptic signal, it was an agreement between the two of them, and Zhou Sheng's answer proved that everything was completely normal.

Huang Ting put the dishes on the table, turned on the induction cooker, came over to clean up and wash his hands, and coughed again.

Yu Hao patted him on the back, feeling something was wrong, and asked, "Are you sick? Shall we go and see?"

"Civil servants have regular inspections." After coughing, Huang Ting resumed his serious look, and said, "I caught a cold a while ago, and I coughed a few times after I recovered. It's not viral, and it won't be contagious."

Huang Ting took out two bottles of Arctic Ocean from the refrigerator outside and opened them. Yu Hao glanced at the living room and instinctively reminded him, why is there a small refrigerator in the room?What's in it?

A small table was set up on the bed, Huang Ting set out the food, Yu Hao mixed the seasoning and handed it to him, just after eating, Huang Ting put down his chopsticks, feeling a little bit embarrassed.

"This hot pot meal is pretty good." Huang Ting nodded in praise.

"I just mixed a seasoning and washed the vegetables!" Yu Hao couldn't laugh or cry, "You don't usually cook, do you?"

Huang Ting said: "Seasoning is the soul of hot pot. Although colleagues live together, they are always busy with different tasks."

Yu Hao said, "What kind of organization is this?"

"Special Investigation Center." Huang Ting replied, "It's a non-public organization. Unfortunately, we don't have any big news for you. We only obey a few specific leaders, and everything else is kept secret."

Yu Hao boiled the meat and put it in Huang Ting's bowl. Huang Ting said, "How are you and Zhou Sheng?"

"He takes care of me at home," Yu Hao said, "It's just a matter of feeding me."

"It's easy to live with boys." Huang Ting added, "It's hard to change your sexuality, otherwise it's really good to start a family like you two."

Yu Hao replied: "You can't get married, it's not a matter of being with a man or a woman."

"So, little student, what do you think is my problem?" Huang Ting said seriously.

"You're fine, there's nothing wrong with you." Yu Hao thought to himself that I used to be a classmate, but now I'm not, and I'm not afraid to play tricks with you.

Yu Hao looked at him carefully and said, "You are like our big brother who is not so approachable and serious."

"Compared to the intellectual, sexy and personable Nicky Chan," Huang Ting said, "Of course you don't like it that much."

Yu Hao said, "However, occasionally I can still feel your gentleness."

"For example?" Huang Ting gave Yu Hao some fat beef and looked at him.

Yu Hao replied: "For example, the sentence just now, asking how Zhou Sheng and I are doing, can I understand that you are concerned about whether I will be bullied by him?"

"He often bullies you?" Huang Ting continued to eat his food.

"Of course not." Yu Hao now feels that it is indeed a little difficult to deal with Huang Ting, and he must always be on guard against whether he will catch you somewhere suddenly, and then start questioning.

"You're chatting with me with investigative ideas, so I won't talk about it." Yu Hao said, "The last sentence was obviously about you."

Holding the chopsticks, Huang Ting raised his hands slightly, signaling surrender, and said, "Continue."

Yu Hao spread his hands and continued to cook the meat. The two of them didn't speak for a moment. Huang Ting looked at the meat seriously, then looked down at his watch, counting the seconds.

Yu Hao: "..."

Huang Ting glanced at Yu Hao, and said, "I don't have many friends."

"It can be seen." Yu Hao replied.

"You and I, you and Zhou Sheng," Huang Ting thought for a while, picked up the meat from the pot, and said, "According to the order of acquaintance, who comes first?"

Yu Hao didn't expect Huang Ting to suddenly mention this question, and replied, "You and I first. Teacher Chen hadn't come yet."

Huang Ting said: "At the gate of your college, if I remember correctly, you were wearing a sportswear jacket that day. It was very cold, and you were carrying a black backpack with a lot of things in it. You just came back from a professional class, and in your hand Take this thought and moral cultivation."

"Yes." Yu Hao slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "You remember it really clearly."

The corner of Huang Ting's mouth curled up slightly, and he said, "The first time I saw you that day, I knew that you were not the one who stole things."

Yu Hao said, "Thank you."

"But because of my job," Huang Ting replied, "I can't draw conclusions directly."

Yu Hao said: "It's okay, you sent a voice message to Teacher Chen later, I know you believe me."

"Oh?" Huang Ting nodded thoughtfully, "Oh."

"Actually, you didn't go to be a criminal police officer at all, did you?" Yu Hao frowned, "You were in Ying City back then, what did you want to investigate? You were sent by the central government?"

Huang Ting answered irrelevantly, and said, "There are many things you didn't think about at first, but after you became a reporter, you gradually thought about them."

Yu Hao just asked casually, and now his heart was beating violently. His purpose was to investigate the Golden Crow Wheel?No, this is inconsistent with what he and Zhou Sheng guessed, it is impossible for them to know the existence of the Golden Crow Wheel so early.

"Eat." Huang Ting said, "Don't let the meat get old."

Yu Hao roughly guessed the purpose of this meal, and had to admire Huang Ting's sophistication. If he tried to talk to Yu Hao one-on-one, although Yu Hao couldn't completely hide it from him now, he was no longer the foolish and sweet person he was back then. There will definitely be disruptions to Huang Ting's rhythm.But he chose to have such a hot pot meal at home. People are the weakest when they eat. The hot pot is in their hands, their eyes drift, and they have to chat while eating. Anytime a movement pauses, they will betray Huang Ting accurately captured all the moments of astonishment and surprise as he thought in his heart.

"Ou Weihong's case is very involved." Huang Ting said, "Of course, there are other corruption cases. I am relatively familiar with Ying City. It is normal to send me back and hope that I can serve as an informant."

"Yeah." Yu Hao said, "Scared me, I thought you were after the Golden Crow Wheel from the very beginning."

Yu Hao didn't want to hang around with him anymore, so he decided to throw a bomb at Huang Ting and see his reaction.

Sure enough, Huang Ting was stunned for a short while, and immediately recovered his composure, and said, "Yu Hao, can we follow the script? I haven't finished laying the groundwork yet, are you sure we're going to get to the point?"

"Which one of us is with whom?" Yu Hao said with a smile, "Isn't it better to get straight to the point? So, let's play a game?"

Huang Ting stared at Yu Hao, Yu Hao thought for a while, and said, "I'll answer your question, and you answer my question."

Huang Ting: "It's really powerful of you to turn your back on others. Yu Hao, you have to understand that I have always regarded you as my friends and my younger brothers from the beginning to the end..."

"Don't talk about those nonsense." Yu Hao said, "Do you want to play? Brother Huang Ting."

Huang Ting put down his chopsticks, fell silent for a short while, rolled up his sleeves, and made a fist gesture. Yu Hao didn't understand, Huang Ting temporarily brought the food outside the door, anyway, he was almost finished.

"Come." Huang Ting lifted the quilt and said, "Since this is the case, why don't you just cover up with the quilt and chat?"

Yu Hao: "Brother Huang Ting, I think you're not mentally normal recently."

"That's what everyone says." Huang Ting replied, and patted the pillow beside him.

Yu Hao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Huang Ting already knew how to use the Golden Crow Wheel?He didn't refuse anymore, and lay down on the bed. Huang Ting gave him a pillow for him to lean on, covered him with a quilt, and said, "If you have enough food and drink, it's best to just lie down..."

Yu Hao: "..."

Then, Huang Ting took a remote control from nowhere, and turned off the lights, and the room was pitch black.He pressed the remote control, and a blue light lit up on the opposite wall.

Yu Hao: "I'll fuck you... I thought what were you doing!"

"What do you think?" Huang Ting looked at Yu Hao, but Yu Hao was staring at the opposite wall. Huang Ting's room was too small, and the projection was projected on the wall opposite the bed. Huang Ting usually used the projection to watch movies. entertainment.

"Watching short movies like this should be a good way to solve the problem of being single." Yu Hao said.

"Immersive."

Huang Ting and Ou Qihang happen to be two extremes. Ou Qihang can chat to death at any time, while Huang Ting can talk about any topic.

Huang Ting pressed a button, and in an instant, a huge Golden Crow Wheel appeared in the projection, covering the entire wall.

Yu Hao: "!!!"

The Golden Crow Wheel is very bright, and its surrounding edges are like prominences, exuding flames and light.Yu Hao even had an illusion that he saw the real Golden Crow Wheel in reality!

Huang Ting said, "Surprised?"

"Indeed." Yu Hao replied, "I didn't expect that at all."

"This thing appeared from my hand." Huang Ting continued.

Yu Hao: "No, I didn't expect at all that you would actually put this kind of GIF animation in the PPT, won't it be very laggy when you open it?"

Huang Ting: "..."

Yu Hao: "Keep flipping through, why are you showing such a strange expression?"

Yu Hao knew the trick to keep in touch with Huang Ting, that is, not to be led by him by the nose, absolutely not to make moves according to common sense, otherwise he would lead him away in no time.

Huang Ting pressed the remote control again, and Yu Hao snatched it back. Huang Ting wanted to grab it, but Yu Hao started to press it himself. Huang Ting coughed violently, and gave up trying to get the remote control back.Yu Hao turned down, and the second page was the analysis report that Chen Yekai sent the Golden Crow Wheel at STA, which he had read.

Yu Hao frowned, Huang Ting said, "Since when did you start following you?"

Yu Hao murmured, "When Ou Qihang lost his memory."

"No." Huang Ting replied, "Earlier, when Nicky decided to give up everything and go to Argentina to end his own life."

Yu Hao fell silent. He pressed the remote control and continued to scroll down. Immediately afterwards, the second page of the research report appeared, and the report was all in English.When Yu Hao saw that page, he immediately became nervous, but he just glanced at it calmly, then pretended not to understand, and switched the page.The next page is a photo of him, Chen Yekai, and Zhou Sheng having breakfast in the hotel. The angle Huang Ting took the photo seemed to be in the hotel garden.

Yu Hao said, "It's really hidden."

"To each other." Huang Ting stretched out his hand, and Yu Hao stopped insisting and returned the remote control to him.

"It shouldn't be difficult for you reporters to understand," Huang Ting said. "Unearthing the truth requires perseverance and a little bit of luck. Ye Kai had quite serious mental problems during that time... I suggest he find a psychological counselor to see." You see, things are going from bad to worse.”

"You know he wants to go to Argentina to commit suicide," Yu Hao said, "you never thought about stopping him?"

"Of course." Huang Ting said, "What misunderstanding do you have about me? It's just that it is not easy for the criminal police to apply for an Argentine visa. You know, I have already bought my air ticket. Before I left, I found out that he was back. The three of you got a room in this hotel." Huang Ting suddenly laughed and said, "Can you explain why?"

"Don't you already know?" Yu Hao looked sideways at Huang Ting, the two of them were lying on the bed under the quilt.

"Yu Hao." Huang Ting said, "I'm on your side. It may not be easy to build this trust, but when we first met, I gave you my trust without reservation."

Yu Hao recalled what Huang Ting had said to Chen Yekai on WeChat in the case of being wronged by Shi Liang for stealing a watch, under the premise of insufficient evidence.

"Yes, I was very moved." Yu Hao said, "At that time, not many people believed in me."

"I'm looking for you, not Zhou Sheng, that's the reason." Huang Ting said calmly, "Ye Kai, Zhou Sheng, you, Xiao Ou, among you, you are the only one who might be willing to tell me the truth. , although I have pieced together a rough idea, I hope to hear the whole story from your mouth."
