Chapter Seventy-Seven: Twenty-Seven Glasses of Wine


There is an old ballad in the Federation called Twenty-Seven Cups of Wine.

The song goes like this: The first glass of wine, the sun is shining, and the green vines outside the window climb into my eyes.

The second glass of wine, the spring breeze was gentle, and the leaf tips brushed my eyebrows.

The third glass of wine, the chirping of birds, pecked at my heart.

The fourth glass of wine, shadowed on the lintel, made me forget who I was.

In the fifth glass of wine, the boy will fly, through the layers of greenery Eleven glasses of wine, the mountains are verdant, and there is an old man who is drunk with a stone.

Twelve cups of wine, peeking into the abyss, the cliff is still old.

Thirteen glasses of wine, snails with horns, the other world is as tired as this world.

Fourteen glasses of wine, the eyes are getting tired, and the people by the fire are gradually falling asleep Twenty-five glasses of wine, remembering my father, the raindrops outside the window fell.

Twenty-six glasses of wine, black flies do not fly, if you and I are palpitating hide under the leaves to watch the autumn rain fade.

Twenty-seven glasses of wine, a few tears, gently put down the glass.

This ancient song has always existed in the public textbooks of the federal national elementary schools, and it is a poem that probably all federal citizens have learned.

This poem uses ordinary simple and even somewhat humble language to tell the story of a young man who drinks alone in the rain, looking at the scenery outside the window, his mind gradually flies into the mountains, rivers and rivers, and after several generations of imagination, he finally returns to his own body, recalls the death of his relatives, and tears alone This simple and moving poem, the original author has long been verifiable, and in today's highly developed scientific and technological civilization, not many people will still remember this little poem in their hearts.

When Xu Le was in Donglin Region, he rarely had the opportunity to hear this song, except in the movie of the great director Lin Longji, who cleverly used twenty-seven glasses of wine as the background music throughout the whole movie.

The last time Xu Le heard twenty-seven glasses of wine, it was in the same bar in Linhai Prefecture.

Shi Qinghai, who drank an extremely large amount of alcohol, finally got drunk after drinking two glasses of strong liquor in a quiet bar on that rainy night.

He struck the wine bottle with chopsticks, and sang the song soothingly and very emotionally to the rhythm of Dangdang.

The singing is not very good, but the somewhat hoarse voice tortured by tobacco and alcohol, accompanied by these lyrics, seems to be particularly vicissitudes, and it is about to make people cry.

And when he finally sang and remembered his father, the flies didn't fly, and when he put down the wine glass, Shi Qinghai finally cried and lost his voice, and let the tears crisscross Xu Le's clothes.

So when he saw the text message and saw the five words of twenty-seven glasses of wine, Xu Le immediately understood that this text message was sent by Shi Qinghai.

It's been almost a month since he couldn't contact Shi Qinghai, Xu Le's heart was already a little anxious, but because there was a big problem in his own brain, and some time ago, Shi Qinghai had disappeared mysteriously for dozens of days in order to carry out some secret mission of the political axe, so Xu Le was not too worried.

At this time, he finally began to worry, Shi Qinghai used a new number, and used the pronoun of twenty-seven glasses of wine, in this world, except for himself and the other party, probably no one can understand who twenty-seven glasses of wine refers to.

What made Xu Le feel even more confused and nervous was that Shi Gongzi asked him to be careful of Zhang Xiaomeng Zhang Xiaomeng has been secretly serving the Medellín councillor, and on the last day of last year, she had already seriously violated discipline and told Xu Le.

Xu Le secretly thought to himself that Shi Gongzi was an official of the Political Axe FBI after all, could it be that the Political Axe found Zhang Xiaomeng, so he specially sent a text message to warn himself But Medellín is now a federal congressman, and on the news a few days ago, the old man and the governor of Jingzhou issued a joint statement, even if the political axe knows that Zhang Xiaomeng is serving the Medellín parliamentarian, Zhang Xiaomeng should not have any problems Xu Le was lying on the hospital bed, his eyes narrowed slightly, he thought for a long time, and gave up the idea of pulling back the strange number, there was something strange in this matter, he had to be more careful.

His finger pressed on the number two of the phone, but he didn't press it down, and finally he pressed it down.

"There's something I'd like to ask you for."

"What's the matter" Tai Zhiyuan's voice on the other end of the phone was very calm.

"I have a friend named Shi Qinghai, he is the head of the fourth section of the FBI's Linhai Overseas Service Office, and I haven't contacted him for many days, and I don't know if he knows or not, and I don't know if he knows the news that I am hospitalized."

"Go on."

"I know that your family has a good relationship with the political axe, can you please help me to check if there is something wrong with him, if he is carrying out some secret mission of the political axe, please help me confirm it, at least I don't have to worry too much."

Tai Zhiyuan's voice on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and he half-leaned on Xu Le, who was sitting on the hospital bed, squinted his eyes, and felt a hint of not being very good.

"I know Shi Qinghai is your friend."

Tai Zhiyuan took the phone and said calmly: "I knew about him a few days ago, and I thought I would tell you at that time, but your current health is too bad, so I didn't say it." ” A puzzle flashed in Xu Le's squinted eyes and asked, "What happened to him?"

"That friend of yours is wanted by the FBI."

Tai Zhiyuan said: "In this case, you naturally have no way to contact him. ” "He is an official of the Investigation Bureau, how can he be wanted" Xu Le's expression changed drastically and asked in surprise.

"I don't know exactly what the charges are, but I think it has something to do with intelligence and something."

After Xu Le was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, he asked very seriously: "I will be discharged from the hospital immediately, can you help me buy the fastest ticket back to Linhai?"

Tai Zhiyuan on the other end of the phone frowned slightly, he didn't expect that Xu Le, who had always been calm, would make such a decision immediately after hearing the news.

He said in a deep voice disapprovingly: "Don't forget what you want to do, you are still a seriously injured person, and one leg is still a cripple" "The injury is almost healed, although my legs can't move, at least I can use crutches and use a wheelchair."

Xu Le heard the concern in the other party's angry tone, so he was not angry and explained.

Tai Zhiyuan said categorically: "Impossible, the general hospital will not let you be discharged." ” "So I need your help."

Xu Le said: "Shi Qinghai is in trouble, I have to go back to see what is going on." ” "I can help you find out what's going on."

Tai Zhiyuan didn't tell Xu Le all the truth, because he knew Xu Le's surname, if Xu Le knew that Shi Qinghai was investigated by the federal political axe because of him, and was finally wanted, I was afraid that Xu Le would go back more resolutely.

"But you calm down, you're just a student, even if you return to Linhai immediately, what's the use" Tai Zhiyuan frowned and persuaded him: "And don't forget, he is now a wanted criminal in the Federation" Xu Le, who was on the other end of the phone, said after being silent for a long time: "I always have to go back." ” Federally wanted criminals, in the minds of ordinary federal citizens, are certainly the object of avoidance.

However, Xu Le himself is the most hidden wanted criminal, not on the list, he believes that if he can return to Linhai, he is in a crisis at this time, presumably Shi Qinghai, who is very lonely, will definitely find himself as easily as he did when he sent a text message just now, and he has the ability to help the other party.

Tai Zhiyuan on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time and said, "The matter in Linhai Prefecture is very complicated, don't go back." ” He was thinking about it for Xu Le, but Xu Le didn't think about anything at all at such a tense moment, and replied directly: "I have to go back." ” Tai Zhiyuan's voice rose in annoyance, and he reprimanded: "Can you calm down and be more mature?"

Xu Le on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, his voice did not become louder, let alone angry, but he said calmly: "Shi Qinghai is my friend, and so are you."

I can't be too calm or mature when something happens to my friend.

If you're in the gym, I'm calmer and more mature and you're dead. ” There are many concepts about friends, but in Xu Le's mind, when the other party has a big problem related to life and death, he has to appear by the other party's side and help the other party without thinking about it, which is called a real friend.

I have to say that although Tai Zhiyuan has always deliberately let his conversations with Xu Le be as natural as an ordinary federal citizen, he is not an ordinary person after all, but the top class in this society.

Tai Zhiyuan's control is naturally strong, and occasionally in his speech and demeanor, there will always be a slight posture of a superior, which is exactly what Xu Le is not used to.

When he found out that Xu Le was beyond his control, he couldn't help but sigh when he was in a complicated mood.

He looked at the phone in his hand that had been hung up, and smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking that it was precisely because that guy had saved himself more than once that he had to stop the other party's unwise actions.

"Let the people in the hospital strengthen their control, and don't let Xu Le sneak back to Linhai."

Tai Zhiyuan calmly explained to Steward Jin beside him: "The investigation of Zhang Xiaomeng has begun, and Shi Qinghai has become a fugitive Xu Le returned to Linhai at this time, which can only make everyone misunderstand and not do him any good." ” "Do you want to use coercive measures?"

said Steward Jin on the side.

A hint of mockery flashed between Tai Zhiyuan's delicate eyebrows: "Fortunately, he is injured now, otherwise if he really wants to be discharged from the hospital, with those bodyguards of our family, who can stop him" Steward Jin smiled slightly, understanding what the young master meant.

After experiencing the gymnasium, the security personnel of the Tai family all knew that the young master had a student friend next to him, and what amazed them the most was that this student showed a more powerful combat ability than a special soldier in that assassination incident.

"Then it's not a measure, it's just that people follow him 24 hours a day and block him in the hospital with a wall of flesh."
