black under lights

Li Li and Feng Qing sat in the last row of the movie theater, the light and shadow contours on their faces danced with each frame of the movie.

On the big screen is Leslie Cheung's face in the dark room.

His facial features are not surprising, and he is by no means a standard handsome face, but it still fascinates countless women, as if every outline of his face is just right.In the movie, he stood in front of the mirror and turned on the music, dancing with a song with a cigarette in his mouth, with an intoxicated expression on his face.His dance moves are dreamy, sexy, obsessive, and 100% staged as the prodigal son of the season.

He said that there is a bird in this world that has no feet, it can only fly and fly, and when it is tired, it stands in the wind and sleeps.The bird only lands once in its life, when it dies.

Li Li subconsciously turned her head to look at Feng Qing.She thought that at least he would fall into a deep sleep, but she didn't expect him to stare at the screen intently.It's like she thought he would take her to watch martial arts movies, gunfight movies, horror movies, but definitely not like now, sitting in the movie theater and watching "Days of Being Wild".

After the movie ended, Li Li was immersed in the endlessly evocative story for a long time, but she hadn't recovered, so she didn't realize the unprecedented silence and harmony between the two.

Until she walked out of the cinema, the summer wind woke her up.

Only then did Feng Qing ask, "Do you like Leslie?"

"Of course." She replied subconsciously, her tone so excited that she forgot that the person who was talking to her was the heinous gangster in her heart, "Girls like him, and no one can refuse him. The characters he played live like that, you see more Find the answer in a few parts.”

When she came back to her senses, she saw Feng Qing looking at her with a half-smile, and that look made her feel ashamed.Li Li immediately turned her eyes away, and stared solemnly at the glass door: "This is farewell, Mr. Feng, I hope you will keep your word, goodbye."

It was rare that Feng Qing didn't bother, but read a gentleman's gesture again: "Goodbye, Miss Li. It's a pleasure watching a movie with you."

After walking out of the gate, Li Li realized that it was completely dark. The Call machine is quietly in the palm of my hand, like a ticking time bomb.She realized it later, and couldn't believe that she had watched a movie with Feng Qing in peace.

But what is there to be happy about?She frowned and walked forward quickly, remembering Feng Qing's last words.

She didn't even say a word to him in the whole room.

Half a month passed in a rare and uneventful manner.

In the past half month, Xin Mo concentrated on recuperating, and Liu Fangfang was a professional escort; Li Xueying worked hard on the internship, and then quit her internship to work in a nearby coffee shop. By the way, she studied in advance the homework for the upcoming university—he had successfully obtained the ideal The university's offer, for which Li Que also brought his siblings to a celebration banquet in Lianxianglou.

Li Li didn't know anything, and his father was still silent, and Xin Mo was unexpectedly not troubled by anyone, and all this was abnormal in Li Xueying's eyes.Yes, uncharacteristically calm.

The days that have been so peaceful for half a month seem to have been stolen.

This reminded him of a sentence, the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building.

But he prayed anyway.At least he didn't want all this short and warm calm to be a harbinger of a storm.

Every one or two days, Li Xueying went back to visit Xin Mo.Or sometimes Xin Mo couldn't help but come to him.

Love makes people stupid and mediocre.

I didn't realize it at the time, but when I think about it after a long time, Li Xueying really loves this mediocrity that makes the world dismissive.

Xin Mo went through the discharge procedures after being hospitalized for a week. Instead of going back to the cramped public housing, he temporarily lived in his tea restaurant.Liu Fangfang forced him to do this, so that he would go smoothly when he came to see him, and he would not go hungry or continue his irregular work and rest routine.He is sick and he needs to recuperate.

Not only for Li Xueying, but also for Xin Mo, this half month was enough to surprise him.Surprised that he mistakenly thought that there was a stormy sea, but there was not a single splash left behind.

On the bustling night market street in Yau Ma Tei, Xiangjiang neon lights are everywhere, lighting up every corner of the city, including the dirty corners.Flowers, wines and greens are the eternal theme of Xiangjiang, which is also due to the neon signs that fill every inch of the sky.They seem to never stop, never go out, always brilliant, and always lost.

The night of this city is always more beautiful than the day.

Under the shining golden signboard of "Harbor Corner Sparrow", many prostitutes standing on the street are full of laughter, skillfully confusing every passer-by, preferably decent people wearing gold and silver, most of them are world-class people.

Going deeper, in the sparrow hall, the chaotic and ear-piercing noises poured into the brain like sea water.Laughing and cursing, cheering, and celebrations can be used for parents and family problems, and more often they are bragging about who is rich and who is powerful.Mahjong Hall is a never-fading entertainment venue for Hong Kong people. It gathers men and women together, and is suitable for all ages.

If you want to dig deeper, it is the intertwined and complicated passages in the mahjong hall. Each passage has an independent private room, which is usually a space that rich people are willing to book in advance.

Someone threw the Pai Gow out, yelled loudly, and collected money.

After lighting a cigarette, everyone experienced the joy of looking at flowers in the fog in the curling smoke, and it was rare to be calm.

"If I want to say that it is better to get rid of Asarum sooner or later, I don't know why Ah Qing is hesitating. Could it be that he waits for others to recharge their batteries and prepare for it after they are discharged from the hospital? Where? I think Ah Qing underestimates the enemy, and sometimes he suffers." The uncle with half-gray hair in his 60s said.

Tang Guochuan was also at this mahjong table, and he was laying out the tiles in his hands at this time, without frowning: "What else can you think about? The list in Xixin's hand, don't talk about Feng Qing, it's you Are you not tempted? You want to be him after getting the list... Feng Qing is just planning to kill two birds with one stone."

"What do we have to do with our old bones?" The elderly man sitting in the corner snorted, and his conversation was eccentric. "In a few years, we will close the mountains and go to Tsuen Wan for the elderly. The family property will not be left to the younger generation."

"Why don't I believe that you are so magnanimous. You leave all your wealth to the younger generation. Why are you going to Tsuen Wan to sit and eat? Don't forget that there are two debt collectors in your family."

The old man was annoyed when he thought of his two sons who were unlearned and incompetent: "If you don't talk about those two poor boys, you will lose your luck."

"We have to plan. Why don't we hold a meeting and force Ah Qing to make plans early." Tang Guochuan was dissatisfied.

"Forget it, forget it." The old uncle said again, "Now it's the world of young people, and if you point out the country, it will be annoying."

As for the protagonist of the topic they were discussing, he was sitting on the office floor of the Kowloon Building at the moment.He just turned the entertainment city on the right track at the beginning of the year, and since then he has been more unscrupulous in buying porn and heroin.Pros and cons of the company is just a name, large sums of money into the bills and go around, come out all is clean money.The monthly sales volume of Kowloon Nightclub is huge, and even the people of Whitehall can't find out the name of the club if they come to check it in person.

Feng Qing only cares about one thing.

He picked up his cell phone and dialed Xing Shihuai's number.

The phone was picked up quickly.

"Mr. Feng"

"Detective Xing"

"What are you doing?"

"The information I handed over to you half a month ago, I haven't recalled it until now, I think I should ask."

"The Police Department is not your private CIA, Mr. Feng can't sit still for half a month." Xing Shihuai said in a low voice on the other end of the phone, "I heard that you saw Mr. Li's siblings, and you surprised the children , and want Li Li to be your daughter-in-law. You'd better not play tricks on him, even if Mr. Li has a problem with his identity, he has been in the police for many years, and he should be under the care of our Police Department."

"I didn't expect Inspector Xing to turn around and close the door as a family, and treat me as a joke?" Feng said with a smile, and he could hear the anger, "Don't forget, Inspector Xing, whose hands did the former Inspector fall into in the end? Isn’t he a [-]-year-old who has been lurking in the Police Department for many years? You have confidence in Mr. Li and regard him as one of your own, which does not mean that Hongmen also recognizes him.”

"Don't forget your position. Since you call me Inspector Xing, you should also know my position. Mr. Feng has to be patient enough to seek skin from a tiger." After Xing Shihuai said this, he hung up the phone, and Feng Qing silently held his phone and looked at it. Night outside the window.

It took him a long time to let go of his hand, staring uncertainly at the bright lights flowing under the moonlight outside the window.

In the silence, someone knocked on the door. It was his long-haired pony boy who carefully reported the situation in the West District. He also said that there was a new white powder shop in Kowloon Tong, and it was Zhenqing who helped his subordinates get up.

Feng Qing was in an irritable mood, but before he could hear the words, the ashtray flew out and almost landed at Ma Zai's feet, which made people tremble with fear.

"Trash, street boy! You can't do this well! Get rid of his place tonight, and send him to the sea!" Feng Qing didn't know when the small gang had established a foothold in the Eastern District. In his eyes, as long as their boss is fine, it seems that he has no fear of slashing and beating a few people, let alone retribution.All he has in his heart is a wimpy turmoil, and his temper is so bad that he needs someone to vent his anger tonight.After thinking about it, I added viciously, "If you miss it again, you will have no fans for a month, and if you throw it into the water, the sharks will eat it up and it will be worth more!"

He dropped the phone and stared at the streamer night world under his feet again.

Of course, no matter how good his eyesight is, he still can't see a young man with a cloth bag slanted across his body, weak and white, struggling to push through the crowd and go to the other side.It was very difficult for him to swim against the current, and it was almost impossible for him to take a step.The neon lights flickered on his face, each with a variety of styles, which made his slightly immature face more delicate.

After a lot of effort, Li Xueying finally stood still in front of a restaurant, looking around hesitantly, as if looking for someone.He couldn't find the target for a long time, and was pushed back and forth, like a boat in the sea, which made him anxiously clutch the cloth bag tie.

Suddenly someone blindfolded him from behind and put on a pose: "Little boy, come back to my house tonight, and I'll give you a lot of money, can you do it?"

"Brother Mo." Li Xueying took Xin Mo's palm to cover her eyes, but the corners of her mouth under it were already curled up, and the voice was even more trustworthy, and anyone who heard it would soften their hearts, "I forgot to bring the phone when I went out. Worried, afraid that you can't wait to go away, and afraid that you won't be found, you are in a hurry."

Xin Mo simply took Li Xueying's hand, and led him into the restaurant with big strides: "I arrived early, and I pretended I couldn't find you if you haven't come for a long time, so I came out to smoke a cigarette and squat at you. Seeing you staring at the door for a long time, is it Find someone for me?"

Li Xueying withdrew her hand as soon as she entered the room, and when she saw the room full of people, she looked around embarrassedly: "I thought you were leaving, after all, it was already half an hour late, and the road is too difficult."

"I think so. Come by bus? Fortunately, I didn't ride a bicycle, otherwise it would be even more difficult to move. I dare not leave the car outside the door." Xin Mo led him to the table for two by the window, "After ordering the appetizer, we will serve the curry. "

"Why did you come to eat curry from such a far place? Your tea restaurant has different ones. Brother Mo can make it for me." He said, holding up the menu and flipping through it twice, looking at the crowd outside the window uncomfortably, "It's chaotic here, and there are a lot of people."

"It's right to be lively. How can there be no reason why Yau Tsim Mong is not lively? You will enter school in two months, so you may not have time to come. I even ordered a table and waited for the disco? I got a ticket for a Rave. I heard it was good to watch." .”

Li Xueying put down her chopsticks in shock, her eyes widened, and she waved her hands quickly: "Brother Mo, I can't go, I can't dance."

"What do you think, Disco doesn't mean a nightclub. You should see the nightclub here sooner or later. It's better for me to take you than to go alone in the future." While talking, the curry was on the table, and Xin Mo gave Li Xueying a piece of beef brisket, "I've eaten it all Kowloon, it’s the one with the most authentic taste and the most attractive, you’ve tasted it every day, try it.”

Li Xueying no longer shied away, and took a bite suspiciously. The rich curry coconut aroma lingered on her lips and teeth, and the soft beef brisket on the tip of her tongue seemed to melt in the mouth.

"Delicious!" Li Xueying's eyes widened again, like a small animal that eats its marrow and knows its taste, lowered its head and quickly took two mouthfuls of rice.

Xin Mo often feels that he has changed a lot after meeting Li Xueying. For example, he used to be dismissive of food and sex, but now he always finds ways to find delicious food in every corner of Xiangjiang.And the unintentional discovery will be even more surprising, and the first thing that comes to mind is still Ah Ying.Another example is that he claims to be self-reliant and believes in the truth that he never pleases others, but now he feels the supreme honor because of a delicious curry, and he can't wait to take him to taste all the delicious dishes he has eaten before.
