The police car drove slowly on the snowy road. The wipers automatically swing once in a while to sweep away the snow and water on the window glass, making the road in front of you clearer. Tom held the steering wheel and tapped his fingers lightly. Fast-paced rap music came from the radio, which was also his favorite music style. However, after driving for a while, he turned his head and looked at Qiao Xue sitting in the passenger seat. She was just holding her chin upright, looking out the window at the snowy sky, without saying a word. "Hey, hey, hey, it's rare that you come out to handle a case with me. Do you feel disgusted by me that much? I heard that China has been opening up for a long time, right? Are Chinese women still so conservative?" Tom's words made Qiao Xue stunned for a moment. , and then looked back. She seemed to be looking at Tom in a trance. After a while, Qiao Xue nodded slightly, stretched out and pinched her neck. "It's nothing, I just remembered some things from the past. But, Tom, have you come into contact with a lot of Chinese women?" Seeing Qiao Xue finally starting to smile and speak, Tom finally breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyebrows, and smiled Said: "Oh, to be honest, I feel a little nervous about contacting you Chinese people. Because my mother often tells me that you Chinese people are very mysterious and have many strange powers. And each of them is very capable of fighting. " Qiao Xue laughed out loud. This kind of laughter made Tom feel a little embarrassed. "Oh~oh~oh~~My lovely brother Tom. Don't tell me that you have been a New York policeman for so many times, but you have never entered Chinatown and dealt with us Chinese?" Tom shrugged. Said: "That's not true. But let me tell you, Xue. Every time I try to sit in the police car and try to leave quickly before problems arise! My mother often tells me that you Chinese people call themselves 'some kind of terrorist' Descendants of ancient beasts. Like druids, claiming to have the power of animals and nature, or a very strange shamanistic sect that has some kind of ancient worship of their ancestors. With such strength, a child can even stop a speeding police car with just a raise of his hand. Do you think I'm scared?" Qiao Xue shook her head and smiled bitterly. She didn¡¯t know how she should explain the words ¡°descendants of the dragon¡±. Or maybe it's just not a well-explained phrase. but. Think of the Chinese self-proclaimed "descendants of the dragon" as a Druid sect or a shamanic sect Hmm Thinking about it this way, it seems to be a little similar? "It seems that your mother has instilled in you a lot of strange concepts about us Chinese. What else is there?" The police car encountered a red light. Tom slowly stepped on the brakes and said with a smile: "There are many more. For example, the Chinese can make people vomit blood through space, and the Chinese can fly over walls and cling to walls like Spider-Man. Moreover, there are many supermen of yours who can fly around in the sky. By the way, Xue, I have a question that I have always wanted to ask. When you come to the United States for police training, can you actually fly here directly? I heard that you have something called (Immature) Chinese) The magical power of "Yu Jian Hui Xin"?" Qiao Xue slapped the car door and said with a smile: "That's called (Chinese) 'Flying with a Sword', but you are really very imaginative. During my police training in the United States, I will try to tell you as much as possible about Chinese culture and stories. I hope you can come to China in the future, and I will definitely entertain you well." The police car continued to move forward on the snow-covered road. He laughed and said: "That's good! Ah, can't you tell, you are actually a person who is very good at chatting? We used to divide the work and cooperate. I didn't know that it was quite pleasant to go on missions with you. " Qiao Xue continued to hold her head and said with a smile: "Have I given you such a rigid impression? " Tom: "Of course!" He turned around and said seriously - "You have always been very serious. You seem to be full of mystery. Did you know that when you first came to our aphorism training, we secretly bet that you must be the legendary 'mysterious Chinese'? Anyone who takes the initiative to chat with you will win fifty dollars. As a result, I won!" Qiao Xue couldn't help but dig her mouth and smiled. It seems that his usual behavior is really too cold. Ah However, I seem to have been so cold in the past few years. When did your personality start to change like this? ?Remembering that before, when I had nothing to do, I would go find someone to chat witheven strangers "By the way, Xue, I never knew that your fighting ability was so good. I heard that you are in China When I was there, I subdued three strong drug dealers by myself? "Without a pistol?" It was actually quite nice to chat with Tom. This guy likes to joke and is an optimist. As for the treatment of the relationship between men and women America's sexual concepts are indeed relatively open, which cannot be said to be unique. Qiao Xue nodded. Seeing her nod, Tom seemed even more excited. Tom: "Sure enough! You are really good! How did you do it?" Qiao Xue shrugged: "Maybe it's because the concepts of our Chinese police and your American police are different. The concept of our Chinese police is to 'subdue crime' ', emphasizing on standing up when encountering criminals and protecting the lives and property of ordinary people. The concept of the American police is to 'protect yourself'. When encountering criminals, the concept is to protect your own safety first, and then protect citizens. . Of course, I am not saying that either of these two concepts is better or worse. Both have advantages and disadvantages. How to integrate them is one of the goals of my study. "Tom eased off the accelerator slightly: "So, Is it a different concept?¡± Qiao Xue said after a moment, ¡°Maybe it¡¯s also influenced by my father.¡± Tom: ¡°Oh? Your father?¡± Qiao Xue continued to look out the window. Xue said slowly: "Yes. My father was once a killer. He told me that at the moment of life or death, the first thing to remember is definitely not the police rules, but whether you can have the person you really want to kill. The other party's belief. Although I was one against three, at that time, perhaps it was because my desire to kill them was much stronger than theirs, so I succeeded in defeating them. In other words, I was stronger than them in terms of momentum. Much stronger." "It's so cool!" Tom patted the steering wheel and shook his head. "My father is a killer? It sounds like a Saturday night popcorn movie! ? Don¡¯t tell me what special identity your mother has!¡± The police car whizzed by, but Qiao Xue, leaning on the car window, showed unexpected silence in response to Tom¡¯s question. Driving through a street, Tom noticed that Qiao Xue had not answered for a long time. He seemed a little embarrassed, and the atmosphere in the police car was a little cold, not as relaxed as before. "AhI'm sorry if I snooped on your a**." Tom lowered his head and apologized. "No, I was in a trance." Qiao Xue hugged her arms, rubbed them, and continued to look out the car window. Watching the falling snow flakes being picked up by the breath of the passing vehicle, they made spins in the air, flying backwards as if being pulled by something. "My mother is a very ordinary woman. Very simple and kind. She is not good at lying, but she is the best mother in the world." Tom nodded: "I can understand this. I believe it. , She will definitely be proud of you as her daughter!" A wry smile appeared on Qiao Xue's lips. "No I don't think she will be proud of me." Tom was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding: "What do you mean?" "It means" Qiao Xue shook her head, with a slight look in her eyes. The sadness caused the flying snow outside to be reflected in her pupils, whistling past - "If it weren't for her death, I wouldn't have worked hard to become a criminal police officer and work hard to investigate the cause of her death." Tom exclaimed softly. "Yes. My mother, Xia Yu, died twelve years ago on a snowy day like today." Outside the window, the snow was still floating (To be continued. . )
