Chapter 11 Chapter 1

happy Birthday!macro Chen Lang silently stared at the line of words on the phone screen.Hong is the abbreviation of "Hongzi", her good friends seem to call her that, but Chen Lang only called her by her last name, and it still has the suffix of "Miss".He also thought about calling her Hong or Hongzi one day, but every time he saw her, he felt timid. Women are really difficult creatures. At one forty-five in the afternoon, both alarm clocks rang simultaneously.It took him seven minutes to get out of bed.Before bed, he stuffed a change of clothes into his travel bag and took a shower so he could leave the house quickly when he got up.But at this critical moment, he found that his hair was messed up, wasting precious minutes for it.

I didn't have time to take good care of it, so I had to dip it in some water and sort it out with my hands a few times.Hair is still wet. He didn't find the text message until he got on the tram.Normally, when he opened his eyes, he would browse through the received text messages and missed call records. This is his habit, but today is too hasty.It's a shame that a weak heart makes him lose his pace when he sees the sender's name. After getting off the train, before arriving at the Shinjuku East Office, he opened the text message several times and read it.It was just a simple line, but he hoped to read some subtext from it.

At first, he thought it was just an ordinary birthday wish for a friend.If it's just a simple blessing, he should also say "thank you" lightly.But what if there was some misunderstanding in the text message a few days ago, and she changed her mind after sending "keep distance"?If he only replied with one sentence, he would definitely not be able to fully express his feelings, and wouldn't that be a missed opportunity? But he felt that it would be better to be colder. He once heard that when women face suitors, no matter whether they like it or not, they will deliberately show indifference.So men should not chase women, but let them chase them.

However, he has no such courage. He wants to let Hongzi know that he still likes her through text messages.After much difficulty, Hongzi took the initiative to contact him once. If he didn't seize this opportunity well, he might never have another chance, and he would regret it for the rest of his life. Chen Lang pressed the "Reply" button and began to reply to text messages.Thank you for your text.This is the blessing that makes me the happiest. Does this express my thoughts?Do you want to insert an emoji at the end?Shall I explain it more clearly?Is the last signature Chen Lang too blunt?Since the other party signed "Hong", shouldn't I also write "Chen"...

Thousands of thoughts came to his mind, and he deleted the written words again.If her text messages were just greetings to friends, wouldn't her own emotional text messages be too exaggerated? It would be fine if he was just laughed at as a self-made sentimental guy, but if it made her sick, she might never see her again... "Aren't you alright?" He looked up and saw Kato Yuko standing beside him with his bag on his shoulders, looking straight at him. At this moment, the world lost its voice and time stopped running.The heart beat violently in the body, and the face became hot all of a sudden.His nostrils were flaring, and he was panting heavily.

It's like masturbating while hiding in the bed, and at the moment of orgasm, the sheet was lifted.His mouth was moving, but he couldn't speak. After humming once or twice, he began to speak. "Good morning." "It's 2:32 in the afternoon!" Yuko raised his eyebrows, "Finish sending the text message! Anyway, I've been waiting for two minutes, and it's okay to wait another two minutes." "No, it's not a big deal." With a flattering smile, he hastily shut down the phone and put it in the pocket of his jacket.Of course he knew he was sweating, and it was about to drip from his temples.

"It's really sweltering today!" Chen Lang touched the pocket on the bottom of his trousers, but there was no handkerchief in it, so he put his hand into the pocket of his jacket. "Really? I think it's raining and it's a bit cold. If there's nothing else, let's go!" "OK." He carried his luggage and followed Yuko on the road. Yuko was wearing black suit trousers with thick fabrics clinging to her body, and a pair of rough black boots on her feet, which made no movement when she walked, probably with rubber soles, and a short linen jacket on her upper body.

Inadvertently, Chen Lang saw her round butt dangling between the hem of the jacket that was divided into two pieces.Whether it's the leather trousers you wore last night or the chinos you're wearing today, the curves of your hips are clearly on display.Is she confident in her figure, or is she simply choosing clothes that are easy to move around?Chen Lang couldn't help thinking about it. Her hair was still coiled as it was last night, tied into a bun behind her head.It was only after seeing her during the day that she realized that her hair was dyed a plain brown color.The hairpin is still inserted like that.

Chen Lang glanced at the hairpin and secretly exclaimed, it's probably ten centimeters long! "What is this? Our department also has this kind of gun?" Glancing at the pistol in front of him, Chen Lang couldn't help saying.Although I knew that I would use my predecessor's pistol, I didn't expect it to be a silver automatic pistol. During his shift at the Hachioji Police Station, Chen Lang always wore an S&WM37 revolver on his waist.With its short barrel and aluminum casing, the pistol weighs less than other pistols of its size, and has gained rave reviews among police officers who carry their guns with them while on duty.Since they don't draw their guns and don't shoot, of course it's better to be lighter.

"Lao He is a fan of pistols, and he hopes to use a different gun." The head of the firearms department looked at the gun and said with deep emotion, "So this S&WM3913-----" "Wait, S&W's pistol is supposed to be a revolver, right? Isn't this an automatic pistol?" The bald head of the section stared at Chen Lang, his lips curved into a figure eight. "You are really ignorant! S&W also has automatic pistols! S&WM3913 has a 9mm caliber, a single row of ammunition, and a magazine capacity of eight rounds. It was specially developed by S&W for women's self-defense."

"Huh? Is it for women? It can hold eight bullets, which is pretty good! We only use five bullets until now." "Oh! Don't just talk about layman's words, you are only allowed to load five bullets according to the regulations." "yes?" It's like hearing this for the first time.Although these may have been learned in the lectures at the police school, the knowledge of guns really didn't leave much in his mind.He thought it unreasonable that a pistol that could hold eight rounds at the same time could only hold five rounds. The section chief seemed to understand Chen Lang's expression, and continued to explain: "The year before last, our department made changes to this regulation, you should know that! Pistols with a capacity of less than ten rounds still only hold five rounds as before. , but if the ammunition capacity is more than ten rounds, ten rounds of ammunition can be loaded." "Ah?" Chen Lang's eyes almost popped out, "And a pistol that can hold ten bullets?" "My God!" The section chief frowned, with an expression on the verge of tears, "Be serious! Are you a policeman?" "I used to touch a gun only when I was on duty..." "The M3913 is actually specially equipped for the fourth department of search. As I said just now, your predecessor, Lao He, is a gun fan. After knowing that the higher-ups equipped us with this pistol for the fourth department, he directly discussed with the chief of the fourth department. , apply for the use of this gun. The machine search team is more flexible, and it is also the same for guns, and the top will give priority to the latest models." The section chief stood inside the service desk, behind him was the gun storage with the door open.Just now, there were other automatic pistols on the gun rack. "The machine search team can also use the SIG/SAUER-P230 pistol, which makes gun fans very obsessed. But this pistol is too big, and it is inconvenient to walk under the clothes. It is better to use something smaller. " "Indeed." Chen Lang folded his arms, looking at the silver gun.At first, he made all the fuss because he thought it was rare, but when he thought of having to carry it with him 24 hours a day, he would inevitably feel a little bit strenuous. Chen Lang looked up at the section chief with a flattering smile on his face, and said, "That..." "No." The section chief put the five rounds of bullets and the pistol in the plastic box on the service desk, "The section chief of the fourth section was overjoyed when he heard Lao He's application. Now the fourth section already has a P230 , you don’t know how much effort it takes to make written materials!” "Oh!" After telling Chen Lang the location of guns and Nako, Yuko didn't know where to go.Now she came back and stood beside Chen Lang, putting the yellow plastic card on the service desk. The card had the firearm's registration number and staff number written on it. "This time seems to be a big case." The section chief took out a revolver from the vault and said, "Eight people died yesterday alone." Seeing the gun placed in front of Yuko, Chen Lang turned his head to meditate. It was an old long-bore New Southern pistol.It is very inconvenient for plainclothes policemen to carry long guns, and the New South is no longer used in the Metropolitan Police Department, and most of them have been replaced by S&W guns.What's more, it was said just now that the machine search team would give priority to the latest pistols. Yuko put away the gun and bullets and walked towards the door. "Hey, hurry up!" Chen Lang hastily put away his silver automatic pistol and went after Yuko.The chief cashier shouted: "Hey! Leave the registration card behind." "Shoot the gun!" Yuko ordered, and opened the holster pinned to his waist with his right hand.The gun holster has two layers. After both layers were opened, she pressed the gun holster with her left hand and pulled out the gun handle with her right hand. Chen Lang who was standing aside also drew out his pistol according to her order.It was the first time for Yuko that someone would act on his own orders, but she didn't feel anything special.The two men held guns facing the wall, the body of the gun and the upper arm were in a straight line, the distance between the hammer and the face was ten centimeters, and the angle between the upper arm and the limb was 30 degrees. Police, repeat this action every day. "Open!" She pushed the control handle of the triangular cylinder unique to New South, and the lotus root-shaped chamber opened. "Reload!" She switched the pistol to her left hand, and took out five rounds of 38-caliber bullets in her jacket pocket with her right hand.For right-handed people, the left-handed gun cannot be loaded. In the mobile search party equipped with the latest pistols, Yuko uses the ancient Xinnan pistols. New Nanbu pistols that use 38-caliber special bullets, with 51mm and 77mm barrels.For plain clothes searchers, a holster is required under the clothes, so a small pistol is more convenient.The New Southern 51mm gun has an alias for this - a special gun for civilian police. New South has been discontinued, and the police have gradually replaced special guns with S&W revolvers.Although 70 percent of the police in the country still use the New South, the equipment is being updated.Especially the Metropolitan Police Department, whether it is uniformed police or plain clothes police, most of them have begun to use lightweight M37 pistols. Now, the New Southern 77mm pistol is used only by competition shooters. The M36, the mother body of the M37, can be said to be the prototype of the New Nanbu, but after all, the New Nanbu is a pistol developed by Japan for the Japanese, so it is slightly different from the M36 in terms of frame and handle size. The pistol is the most sensitive, and the feeling brought by subtle differences is completely different. The person who gets the gun must first hold the gun in his hand and try to see if it fits.If you are a player participating in a shooting competition, you will pay more attention to the feeling of your fingers.Among ordinary police officers, there are also people who prefer the feel of the new southern part. Yuko insisted on using the New Nanbu seventy-seven.Of course there is a reason for that. She loaded five rounds into the chamber and switched to holding it in her right hand. "Close the chamber." She gave the command while slowly closing the chamber and returning it to its original state.A light touch from the cylinder control handle confirms that the chamber is closed and seated in the holder. "Close the gun!" The muzzle of the gun was facing upwards, and her right arm returned to her side again. Yuko stared at the pistol, serial number 779635, by his nose.Because it was produced in 1977, this gun has a history of more than 25 years. There were countless white scratches on the dark brown plastic grip.When returning to the factory for maintenance, Yuko made a request. —Don't change the handle! The guns used by the police must be returned to the factory regularly. Check whether the frame and body of the gun are distorted, check whether the gun has any fatal injuries or inappropriate places, and peel off a layer of film protecting the surface of the gun, and reinstall it. Apply a coat.Cuts or visibly damaged grips are replaced during maintenance, but Yuko wants to keep them intact. Even if the gun is full of scars and severe corrosion, it will be trimmed to perfection at the manufacturer and will be reborn. No wonder the gun gets scarred.It had been buried in snow and ice for half a year, and when it was discovered, people even thought it had become scrap metal. Yuko's former crush works in the Ministry of Public Security and is a sniper.He has a soft spot for domestic guns. The rifle is a modified version of the 64-style rifle used by the Army Self-Defense Force. The auxiliary gun he carries with him is the New Southern 77mm gun. A man died in an avalanche in Hokkaido, but the pistol buried with him was found in summer. Yuko managed to acquire this new Nanbu pistol with production number 779635.In the mobile search team, members can make some demands on their own guns, and Yuko makes full use of her privilege. She only asked that the handle of the gun not be replaced with a new one, and that it should be kept as it was when the man used it.She felt that the checkered pattern engraved for anti-slip and the scars on the gun handle were all covered with the man's blood and sweat. She put the tip of her thumb in the notch on the back of the hammer and felt it, then put the gun back in the holster and buttoned the double holster. She lowered the hem of her jacket and looked at Kishimoto. Kishimoto frowned, pretending to be about to cry, and looked at Yuko with a loaded gun. "what happened to you?" "I've only used a revolver so far, and even if you asked me to reload it I would..." Kishimoto looked at the gun, then at the bullet, and finally returned to Yuko. He held the gun in his right hand and the bullet in his left hand, but he couldn't load it into the gun. "I don't have enough hands..." "Don't you know how to use an automatic pistol? Didn't you learn it in police school?" "When I was on duty at the police station, someone told me to forget everything I learned in school, so..." Kishimoto's voice became weaker and weaker.
