Chapter 2 Wish by the Lake

July 2008, 7 p.m.

Zhaoan Botanical Garden, Songjiang Province.

When receiving the report on the case, Li Guanlan was leading a team on vacation in Zhaoan Botanical Garden.Zhaoan Botanical Garden is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery. Jiatang Lake at the foot of the mountain is a branch of Juliu River. There is a special product in the lake, a black carnivorous fish called bearded fish. The meat is tender and delicious, which is the attraction of Zhaoan Botanical Garden. One of the selling points for tourists.

At this time, Li Guanlan had just served as the head of the Quzhou Criminal Police Detachment for one year. During more than 300 days, he fought hard day and night with more than a hundred criminal policemen, and solved 33 murder cases, 5 drug-related cases, and serious injury cases. Fifteen cases, including two gangster-related cases.With the special approval of the Party Committee of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, [-] yuan was invested to send [-] criminal police officers to Zhao'an Botanical Garden, which is [-] kilometers away from Quzhou City, for a three-day vacation.Unexpectedly, I only arrived in Zhao'an yesterday afternoon, and I received the case notice today.Li Guanlan thought that it was rare for the criminal policemen to come out to play once, so don't spoil their interest, and the case at the scene is still unclear, maybe it was just a false alarm, so she decided to go back with Su Caixuan and Xu Tianhua first, and see the situation before talking.

At this time, Xu Tianhua was cuddling with his girlfriend He Xiaoshun by the lake in his family's pond, making love with each other tenderly.Xu Tianhua is from Zhao'an City, and he and He Xiaoshun were high school classmates. He joined the Quzhou Criminal Police Detachment after graduating from the police academy a year ago. He is highly regarded by Li Guanlan for his flexible mind, keen observation, diligent thinking, and hard work.He Xiaoshun is currently a second-year student in the Department of Pharmacy, Songjiang Provincial Medical University, and is on summer vacation.Coincidentally, He Xiaoshun's family lives at the foot of the Botanical Garden in Zhao'an City.Xu Tianhua took advantage of the opportunity of vacation to meet her.

He Xiaoshun's mother died early, and she and her father He Honghai depended on each other for life.When He Honghai was young, he was hit by a car and broke his leg. His right foot became disabled and he limped when he walked.Due to the lack of labor ability, they took advantage of the development of the botanical garden to vacate their own house and divide a few small rooms as a family hotel, renting it out to tourists, and named it "Rugui Inn". Just to make ends meet.

Xu Tianhua was a bit shy on the issue of love between men and women, and he didn't reveal to his colleagues about his relationship with He Xiaoshun, otherwise Li Guanlan might not be in a hurry to call him back to handle the case.Xu Tianhua sneaked out during lunch, came to He Xiaoshun's home, had a hearty meal of braised bearded fish cooked by He Honghai, and then left the house holding hands with He Xiaoshun, strolled to the Jiatang Lake, bathed in the summer afternoon Warm sunshine, ears and temples rubbing each other, the indescribable love is long and deep.

Xu Tianhua was immersed in the sweetness of love when Li Guanlan's phone call suddenly broke the quiet and romantic atmosphere.On the phone, Li Guanlan asked Xu Tianhua to meet him immediately at the hotel where he was staying, and planned to return to Quzhou overnight.Xu Tianhua received an urgent order, knowing that there must be a case, and the case was serious, so he had no choice but to stand up reluctantly.

He Xiaoshun was a little reluctant to say goodbye after meeting his lover for a short time, suddenly remembered something, took out a bottle from his satchel, and waved it in front of Xu Tianhua's eyes.Xu Tianhua asked: "What is this?"

He Xiaoshun said with a smile: "This is a drift bottle, and there is a note with my wish in it."

Xu Tianhua's heart moved, and he said, "Let me see what your wish is."

He Xiaoshun withdrew his hand, protected the bottle on his chest, and said coquettishly, "I won't show it to you."

Xu Tianhua smiled and said, "Keep it a secret. The drifting bottles I saw in movies are all made of glass, why is your bottle made of plastic?"

He Xiaoshun said: "What do you know? There are many stones in Jiatang Lake. Glass bottles will break, but plastic ones are much safer. This bottle is made of environmentally friendly plastic and will not pollute the environment. Don't stare your eyes like Like a bull's eye." The last sentence was teasing Xu Tianhua.

Xu Tianhua said: "Okay, I hope someone can find your drift bottle, as long as it doesn't sink into nothing."
