REDPEAFOWL, Chapter 20: Memory Lane
After the rain fell on that full moon night, the temperature gradually decreased until various colored winter jackets appeared all over Hong Kong Island.
“This year, the cold winds came early.” Duan Feng said, tightening his black winter jacket that had “Police” written on the back. Lu Yipeng nodded and blew into the cup of hot tea in his hand, white steam rising immediately. Both were in the middle of conducting a routine inspection in their assigned area and were taking a break in front of a coffee stand.
“It’s so cold, I wish someone was here to cuddle with me.” Duan Feng continued after taking a sip of tea, “Getting into bed alone on a chilly night like this, it feels lonely no matter what, inspector, do you have someone with you or not?”
Lu Yipeng looked at his junior before blinking a few times. Seeing that, Duan
Feng immediately continued, “Oh, don’t tell me your bed is cold now, or someone is already sharing it with you.”
“Oh, no.” Lu Yipeng replied, shaking his head, “I was about to tell the sergeant to boil some hot water and put it in a bottle, it will keep us warm.”
“Wow… the inspector ruins the atmosphere.” Duan Feng moaned, “And in this way, when will I ever see your fiance again? Last time you let that girl go off somewhere.”
Lu Yipeng chuckled, “No woman wants to marry me.”
“That’s a bit cynical, inspector. I’m sorry, if you haven’t found anyone to marry, what chance do I have?” The other person said with a hint of disappointment. Lu Yipeng looked at his companion and smiled again, “It’s not about finding the right person, getting married doesn’t guarantee happiness.”
“It’s true, inspector.” The other person nodded in agreement. Lu Yipeng fell silent for a moment before asking, “But what about the singer from the other day, did your pursuit of her go anywhere?”
“Well… it didn’t really go anywhere.” Duan Feng replied with a troubled expression, “She had to go back to take care of her sick mother in another province. We’ve been apart since then. Maybe now I’ll get to meet a nice woman who has time to take care of me.”
“Why do you want to find a girlfriend?” Lu Yipeng tried to say but couldn’t. Duan Feng turned to look at him and made a big face.
“Oh, inspector, have you given up on the single life already? Don’t you think about it? When we come home tired after work, it’s nice to have someone waiting, a friend sitting down for a late dinner, ready to heat up some hot water for a bath, sleeping warmly next to you on a cold night. It’s good to have someone by your side when you die.”
“Well… I don’t think it’s that simple.” Lu Yipeng said, and a thought came to mind that he hadn’t considered before.
…
Going back almost four years. After escaping from the clutches of Hong Kongque, enduring the shame of his leg wound, along with the vow never to return to that hellish place again. One day in winter, while he was working, his mobile phone rang loudly. Lu Yipeng quickly answered.
“Is this inspector Lu Yipeng?” The voice at the other end was unfamiliar to him. Lu Yipeng furrowed his brow, wondering if he had left his number to be a bother to someone as old as this.
“Yes. I’m Lu Yipeng. What can I do for you?”
“My boss, the Peafowl, wants you to meet at the fortress this evening. Please come as scheduled. You will be provided with dinner.”
Lu Yipeng’s hand trembled as he held the phone before finally answering, “I’m not going.”
That phone call made the young police officer furious and took Lu Yipeng to the point where the wound on his leg hurt almost half a day, but by nightfall it was forgotten. However, when he walked to the car, he saw a big man waiting.
Seeing Lu Yipeng’s face, the man immediately assumed an aggressive stance. If he remembered correctly, this guy was also in the employment of that scoundrel house just like him.
“I’m here on the boss’s orders, please let me take you to meet him.” The man with a wound resembling a surgical scar on the center of his forehead spoke, bowing to him, “Boss said I should ask but be nice, so there won’t be any issues.”
“I’m not going.” Lu Yipeng replied sharply, “If you have a problem, then settle it with me right here.”
The man listened, shaking his head, “My duty is only to inform you.”
“Okay.” The young police officer sighed, “Then you can go back, tell your boss this. If he wants to see me, then he can come.”
“Yes.” The tall man accepted, then quietly walked away. Lu Yipeng let out an angry sigh before opening the car door and starting the engine to drive back home.
What will that scoundrel peacock do next?
…
Angrily, the young police officer stopped by the game center to vent his emotions because the wound on his leg made him have to avoid almost all types of evening outings, afraid that when he got close to a woman and then will have to flee later, he didn’t want to show that embarrassing wound. In the end, the young police officer found his way to relieve stress at this game center.
He played until three in the morning, then drove back home. But as he parked the car and walked to the front door of the house, Lu Yipeng’s steps suddenly hesitated.
He remembered before leaving the house in the morning, he had intentionally locked his door by tilting the keyhole a bit. Why was it now perfectly straight like this?
Surely someone did something with the key.
Lu Yipeng slowly took out a gun from the belt buckle at his waist before inserting the key to unlock the door. Then he pushed it open.
“…”
Inside the house still looked the same as it did in the morning before leaving.
However, Lu Yipeng felt that something was off.
The young police officer cautiously entered his own house, barely able to suppress a smile. He never thought that one day he would have to sneak into his own home.
Inside the house, nothing seemed out of place. There wasn’t even the sound of dripping water. As he entered the kitchen, Lu Yipeng felt like he had walked into a web of threads. In a split second, a knife flew towards him, a knife he was certain had never been in his house before. He dodged it just in time, feeling the sharp edge of the knife pass by his shoulder. As it collided with the wall and fell to the ground, it made a loud clang.
His grip on the gun tightened instantly.
Some psychopath must have snuck into his house and set up traps, Lu Yipeng thought to himself.
The young police officer took slow steps, trying to feel for any strings or anything that could be used to trap him low to the ground. And just like that, the house he thought was small suddenly felt much larger. He reached the stairs to the second floor and found three more traps – both knives and pots ready to fall and impale him at any moment.
The staircase that used to have only a few steps now seemed to stretch on forever. Each step had to be scrutinized. Only when he could see the faint strings tautly in place did he continue climbing. Even before reaching the top step, he spotted another trap waiting just at his neck.
The young police officer wondered if there was a criminal he had caught before who enjoyed setting up traps like these. It could even be a form of revenge.
Lu Yipeng decided he would thoroughly search his house and then call the person at the department. With the potential intruder still lurking, he may have taken advantage of a moment of carelessness to harm him.
The young police officer now stood still in front of the two doors on the second floor. One door led to a storage room, and the other was his own bedroom. After a brief hesitation, he decided to open the door to his bedroom first.
As I reached out to twist the knob, the creaking sound grew louder and the adjacent storage room door swung open, along with a chair that was violently pushed out. Lu Yipeng managed to dodge just in time, but had to widen his eyes when he saw four or five sharp iron bars falling from the ceiling. The young police officer decided to quickly dive into the bedroom. As he raised his head, he saw someone sitting on their bed.
“Inspector-Lu, you are truly amazing. It only took you ten minutes to arrive at this room. It’s truly a wonder you dare to intrude into my territory.” The person clapped admiringly, causing Lu Yipeng to frown as if he was about to come out.
“Hong Kongque.” The young police officer said with a stern tone. His expression, even in death, he would never forget. As he finished speaking, he lunged at the person sitting down. Hong Kongque was taken aback, “Inspector, you are truly impatient.”
Lu Yipeng jabbed his fingers on the neck of the person sitting down, but before he could confront them, he had to lower his head almost to the point of kissing the other person’s feet.
“Ouch!” The young police officer groaned, and only then did he realize there was another trap in the room. Lu Yipeng tried to stand up, but found that his legs were tied together. As he struggled to get up, Hong Kongque walked in, and grabbed both of his arms. Lu Yipeng was still unsteady because his legs were tied together, so he had to lower his head once again. This time, his body half collapsed onto the bed. The young police officer then heard a faint noise.

The black-eyed Lu Yipeng stared blankly before attempting to pull both his hands, which were handcuffed to the headboard, together. The sound of metal clashing together could be clearly heard. Hong Kongque sat down beside him before using his hand to raise his face.
“You’ve been caught again, inspector.”
Lu Yipeng turned to look at the person in front of him before speaking, “Why did you do this? Do you want to get caught?”
The person being asked shook their head before smiling, “What’s the matter, inspector? You called me here yourself, didn’t you? You said if I wanted to see you, I should come to your house. I just followed your instructions, inspector.”
Lu Yipeng glanced at him again before speaking, “I will charge you with invading, attempting to kill a police officer, and you.”
The person was threatened and frightened to the point of trembling, “It’s really scary, you, mister inspector, like to threaten people my age. If I tried to kill you I could do it wherever I want. Just wanted to make you feel a little bit excited, that’s all. Look, you are still in good condition and even a hard on.”
After speaking, he jumped up. Then he bent down to take off Lu Yipeng’s belt buckle.
“What are you going to do!!” The young police officer shouted as Hong Kongque lifted his hand to release the handcuffs and unzip the pants of the other person, “I miss the Red Peafowl on your leg, want to see it again.”
After speaking, he dragged down the other person’s pants and pulled out. Lu
Yipeng shouted, “Hey!!”
“Inspector, you look sexy in underwear.” The other person said as he pulled down the police officer’s underpants and let them go, hearing the sound of a clicking as Lu Yipeng blushed embarrassedly.
“I will file charges of perversion against you.”
“Calm down, just taking off pants doesn’t count as perversion.” The other person said with a relaxed tone before moving his hand down to stroke the soft and scarred part of the police officer’s inner thigh.
“Very beautiful.” Hong Kongque murmured, then wriggled down under the body lying half on the bed, Lu Yipeng was shocked as his underwear was pulled off. That tongue was hot and eagerly circled around his erected shaft, forcefully and moistened by the warm and moist mouth cavity causing the police officer’s moaning voice, Hong Kongque’s technique was so good that it was shocking. After a few minutes, Lu Yipeng felt like he was walking towards the gates of heaven. The waist of the young police officer stiffened, shivering, swaying up and down to fit with the edge of the couple’s lips, while the emotional void was stimulated to its peak. The couple’s lips were then released immediately.
Lu Yipeng then slammed his head against the bed, his waist still shaking slightly, feeling dizzy to the point of dreaming, and then. He heard something being spoken, “Inspector, your thing is spewing really thick stuff. You don’t often release steam, do you?”
The brain that was in a fog suddenly returned to full operation almost instantly, “What are you looking at?!”
“Look at this, inspector.” The other person replied in a calm and nonchalant tone before raising the semi erect thing in his hand to face him, “Tell me, do you have time to play with this?”
Lu Yipeng looked at the hand that was holding the white mucus fluid before speaking, “Let go, before I press additional charges against you.”
The threatened person shut his mouth, “Look again, do you know how scary it is when you threaten me like this? I’m even more afraid, so afraid that I dare not release you semi erect.” After finishing speaking, Hong Kongque clapped his hands on the waist of the tall figure, “Come on, go lie down on the bed first, inspector.”
Lu Yipeng had never been under someone’s control before, especially not as much as today. Apart from clapping his hand, Hong Kongque also used his foot to push him. The young police officer was lifted onto the bed and almost hit the wall on the other side. Luckily, he had a handcuff key locked on, so only the tip of his foot hit the wall. But before he could regain his composure, Hong Kongque jumped up onto the bed as well.
The sound of the bed groan was terrifying, as if it would break at any moment. Lu Yipeng turned to look at the person straddling above him, who was looking down at him with a secretive smile.
“Inspector-Lu, how was it last time when you were tied up and blindfolded?
Good?” Hong Kongque asked, bending his face closer, and then grabbing his chin before using the tongue to lick his lips lightly. Lu Yipeng flinched and tried to escape, but that person squeezed him lightly before inserting their tongue.
Lu Yipeng was reluctant to be kissed, especially by a man, which was never in his thoughts. Worse still, this man had hurt him and threatened him before. The young police officer resisted, but the person holding him was so powerful that he made the young man shed tears. Eventually, Lu Yipeng had to let the other person kiss him before he was let go.
After forcing the kiss, Hong Kongque withdrew his lips and then ran his hands down between his legs, “Inspector, you are easily aroused, huh.”
Lu Yipeng looked at the person above him, trying to move away, but to no avail. Hong Kongque’s hand rested on that part of his body. The young police officer stiffened once more.
“Do you know what you’re getting yourself into?” The other person whispered, using their other hand to open the young police officer’s shirt and bent down to kiss his chest, moving down to his abdomen before stopping and teasing the part that was still hard.
“What do you plan to do with me?” Lu Yipeng asked, trying to control his sighs and not let them follow the jerking rhythm. Hong Kongque licked the dark tip until he heard the other person inhale sharply, then answered the question,
“Soon you will find out for yourself. I’m sure you wouldn’t want to press any charges against me.”
Lu Yipeng immediately sighed as he saw Hong Kongque raise his head, his dark eyes gleaming as he stared at him with a mysterious smile. He then stood up, inserting his hand into his pocket and adjusting his stiff posture.
…
“Inspector?”
Lu Yipeng was startled, blinking rapidly as he looked at Duan Feng and blinked a few times, “Inspector, what are you thinking? You look strange.”
“Uh… nothing.” Lu Yipeng replied, feeling embarrassed and not knowing what to say. Why did he have to think of such ridiculous things at a time like this? Maybe it was because it was the first time someone was waiting for him at home other than his father. What if that someone was Hong Kongque? Would he refuse to sleep in the warm bed provided for him? The guy would definitely cause more problems by making him sleep in a better bed.
“Um… I think you are secretly thinking about someone for sure.” Duan Feng observed seriously, his face taking on a stern expression, “Or maybe it’s that senior relative that the inspector likes to talk about.”
Lu Yipeng almost choked on his tea and quickly responded, “Nonsense. A senior relative is just that, a senior relative.”
The person being teased chuckled heartily, “Haha, I was just kidding. You look suspicious, that’s all.”
Lu Yipeng looked at his colleagues before speaking, “I think we should head to District C. Standing here for too long is starting to get cold.”
“Haha, inspector you are shy, but I actually feel cold too. That’s why.” Duan
Feng said, tightening his coat around himself, “There’s a great noodle shop in
District C. Let’s stop by and have something to warm us up.”
“Um.” Lu Yipeng nodded in agreement before furrowing his brow in confusion when he saw Duan Feng raising his hand.
“I’ll drive this time, inspector. We agreed on that, remember? District C is just nearby. We can keep driving if you prefer.” Lu Yipeng smiled, “I’ll drive, it’s close by. You can keep driving if you want.”
“No, not now, Inspector. I want the noodles I ate to stay in my stomach and not end up all over my stomach. Inspector you just chased a thief around and now this.”
“Maybe there’s another thief.”
“I can chase him myself, please give me the keys.”
Finally, Lu Yipeng had to give the car keys to Duan Feng. The two police officers walked to the inspection line, Duan Feng pressed the remote to open the car door. Then he frowned.
“Inspector, is the remote not working?”
“No, it’s fine.” Lu Yipeng replied, “It was still working when I was using it for parking.”
The two police officers looked at each other instantly.
Boom!!!
