Chapter 35
When Han Xin found Zhuge Liang with the pile of things in his hand, he was leaning on Zhao Yun's shoulder with his eyes closed.There is no expression on his face, no emotion can be seen, but the low air pressure emanating from his body can freeze to death people in a corridor.
"Zhuge Liang, I have something to ask you."
Zhuge Liang turned his head and buried himself deeper into Zhao Yun's arms.
"Don't look for me now."
"But I want to know the answer now."
Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, impatient for the first time in his words: "Can you let me be quiet for half an hour."
"..."
"Han Xin, don't speak so harshly, no one owes you." Zhao Yun felt uncomfortable listening to Han Xin's tone, and finally inserted a sentence, "You should go and see Li Bai first."
Li Bai was no longer lying on the hospital bed, and sat up leaning on the pillow, his eyes were blank, he didn't know what he was thinking.
This time, Han Xin didn't ask questions first, but walked in and sat gently beside the bed.
"The doctor said you need to rest now, lie down and sleep for a while."
Li Bai slowly raised his head. In a short time, his face seemed paler and haggard than before, and his eye sockets were even sunken.
"...You know all about it..."
Whispering, with trembling sounds, he was obviously afraid of knowing the answer, but he still forced himself to ask.
But in fact, the answer has been known for a long time, so it is a declarative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.
Han Xin stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms, and answered irrelevantly: "It's all over."
Li Bai was dazed and didn't struggle, lying on Han Xin's chest in a daze, with a pair of numb eyes open.
"I wanted to tell you," he murmured, "I've wanted to tell you—"
"It's okay," Han Xin interrupted him quickly, "It doesn't matter, I don't care."
"But there is a price to be paid for killing people," Li Bai raised his head, his eyes were swollen with despair and confusion, "That feeling has tortured me for so many years, but I don't think I can forget it after a long time. On the contrary, they -"
Before Li Bai finished speaking, Han Xin suddenly lifted his chin and sealed it with a kiss.
This kiss was affectionate, tender and cautious. Han Xin took the opportunity to embrace him in his arms. Li Bai's legs were folded on his, and half of his body was leaning on his upper body. The sun shone in from outside and shone on both of them. .
Han Xin's body is like a wall, keeping all the sunshine for him.It was also like a cradle, making Li Bai feel as if he had fallen into the softness full of security, and fell asleep quickly as hell, with his eyelids as heavy as a mountain.
Before falling asleep, only Han Xin could understand the vague hesitation.
"...I'm so sorry..."
"There's nothing to regret."
Li Bai closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "I regret that I am not as strong as you."
"...Go to sleep for a while, be obedient."
Li Bai buried himself greedily into Han Xin's neck, rubbed the man's glands across the thunder pool, took a deep breath, and sucked in the man's pheromone smell.
He is looking for security.
Han Xin's body stiffened instantly.
But this time, he was in control.No matter how Li Bai smelled it, it would no longer have an attack.Instead, in the end, he even stretched out his hand to press the opponent's head hard on his own neck.
If it makes him feel at ease.
——Han Xin turned his head slightly, aimed at Li Bai's gland, and bit down gently.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhuge Liang's figure appeared at the door of the ward.
Li Bai had already fallen asleep with Han Xin on his pillow, and the nurse came in and reinserted the drip needle for him. This time, sleeping medicine was added to the nutrient solution.
Just as Han Xin wanted to make a move, the person at the door stopped him with his lips.
Zhuge Liang shook his head, and said with his slightly parted lips, "Come out, I can't go in."
At that time, Han Xin put him back on the bed and covered him with the quilt, staring at his slender eyelashes that were still trembling in his sleep, reluctant to part.
"Who will be in charge of guarding the ward next?" Han Xin asked as he walked to the door.
"Lv Bu and Zhao Yun will make arrangements."
"Is it reliable?"
"It's better than you alone. And I saw your father on the phone just now, so he should be planning to take care of this?"
"...Okay then, let's go and talk in another place." Han Xin glanced at Zhao Yun beside him, "It's just the two of us."
"That's what I meant too."
While walking, Zhuge Liang had already begun to explain calmly: "I asked just now, Cheng Yu is in the orphanage, and nothing happened. A while ago, the orphanage had a group medical examination, so his blood should have been stolen from the hospital like this of."
"I have to go find him, you go with me."
"...It's okay for me to go with you, but I must bring the third team of bodyguards that Zhao Yun arranged for me. And he will definitely come with me."
"Then let him ride in the same car with the bodyguards. Li Bai only told you what happened back then, but he chose to entrust these things to me for safekeeping. We must respect him and not let more people know."
"I know. So what did Li Bai give you, can you let me see it?"
Han Xin hesitated for a moment, but handed it to Zhuge Liang.
"Did he poison anyone when he was a child?" Unlike Zhuge Liang who was honestly told by himself, Han Xin made a reasonable and well-founded guess based on the current situation.
"...Well. On the face of it."
"What is superficial?"
"After he told me these things back then, I immediately went through the files and checked secretly. I found that man... No, the two men he thought he killed didn't die because of him at all."
"..."
When Zhuge Liang was thinking, the frequency of blinking would increase, "The first man he 'killed' was around eight years old. His name was Wen Guoxiong. He was a man of the hour in City C. He was an entrepreneur. He was around 45 years old. The real cause of death was a heart attack at home, and it is true, the poison Li Bai bought was not poison at all, but ordinary vitamin C tablets."
"?!" Han Xin was surprised, "How do you know?"
"I sealed up that illegal pharmacy in the old town," Zhuge Liang said indifferently. "During the interrogation, they said that they had never sold any 'poison' or 'elixir'. They were all deceitful, especially the area that belonged to the slums. Often the child is the head of the house, and the parents are sick in bed, so they earn black-hearted money to deceive the child and be ignorant. As long as the child comes, no matter what they buy, they only give him vitamin C tablets. I checked that month and went to him to buy medicine. It is true that all of the children’s families are vitamin C tablets, which is consistent with the statement of the arrested store manager.”
"Have you told Li Bai?"
"I said it, and I also said that the other man was not killed by him, but he still can't forgive himself."
"...What about the second one?"
"The second person is Wen Jingyun. He is the same age as the first deceased in the same village. He is also powerful. He and Wen Guoxiong often colluded together after they made a fortune and went to the red light district to have fun. They both once...cough , continued to harass Li Bai's biological mother. Speaking of which, this person suddenly found Li Bai's new home to entangle with Li Bai and the others two years after Wen Guoxiong's death. Wen Jingyun's only son also ran away from home and disappeared. Wen Jingyun's profit chain suffered heavy losses, and it took a long time to make a comeback."
"Then how did he die?"
"On the surface, he was hit on the head by a heavy object, and died after being unconscious. But in fact, he woke up the next day. The injuries he suffered in Li Bai's house were not that serious at all. Being entangled by the media, he found a substitute to lie down in the hospital, and continued to release false news that he was in a coma. In fact, he secretly went abroad to avoid the limelight, but more than ten days later, he was assassinated abroad. So the news became that he was hospitalized Died in a coma for half a month after treatment was invalid. These materials are the truth that I found out after a lot of effort. You can choose not to believe it, but it is true that the deaths of these people have nothing to do with Li Bai strictly speaking...he just killed people Attempted."
But for so many years, because he had murderous intentions, he was tortured by nightmares day and night, and he regretted it endlessly.
The hospital is relatively close to the orphanage, and it takes less than 10 minutes to arrive.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a few children squatting in the yard to make snowmen. The principal wrapped himself tightly and stood aside, warming the children with handbags from time to time. The yard was full of joy.
Han Xin walked over quickly and greeted politely, "Dean."
"Eh? Police officer Han, why are you here?" The dean looked away from the children, and was shocked when he saw Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang, who were unfamiliar faces, and the bodyguards of the three groups behind them. Slow down: "...this...you are?"
Han Xin sighed, turned his head and looked at the two people: "I just said that you bodyguards are scary, and you have to bring them to the orphanage. What should I do if I scare the children."
Sure enough, Zhao Yun, who insisted on following, coughed lightly, waved at the group of people, and signaled them to wait outside the door.
"Dean, is Xiaoyu there?"
"Oh, yes, but he seems to be in a bad mood these days," the dean thoughtfully, "Huihui was adopted away, and he has been posting for several days. Speaking of which, Li Bai Why didn't the police officer come? I was thinking that if he came, Xiaoyu would be in a better mood if he liked him so much..."
"Huihui?" Han Xin thought about it carefully. It should be the girl who played with Xiaoyu that day. Li Bai also joked that he was envious of their early love, "Well...then where is he now?"
"Should be sitting in the backyard, he has been doing this for the past few days."
"understood."
The weather in January was really freezing. The little boy sat on the swing, and his thick clothes were piled up, making his small body look fatter.The other children in the backyard ran past laughingly, but he was also indifferent, quietly flipping through the picture album on his lap.
"Xiaoyu, do you remember me?"
The little boy raised his head slowly, remained silent for a few seconds, and closed the album, "Are you here to find me?"
Han Xinxin was still thinking about the people in the hospital, so he didn't have the time to go around, and passed the things straight to the point, "You gave these to Li Bai?"
Cheng Yu nodded: "I gave it to him."
"So," Han Xin frowned gradually, "What do you want to tell him..."
"He called me that night." Before Han Xin could finish speaking, Cheng Yu interrupted him first, his face so calm that he didn't seem like a child should react, "It was the time you came together last time. "
"...What did he tell you?"
"he ask me……"
……
"Officer Li Bai?" A few months ago, on a night in late autumn, the dean received an unexpected call from Li Bai, who had just arrived during the day. something?"
There was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time. The dean stood in the empty corridor, inexplicably feeling a sudden wind behind him.
"...Officer Li?"
"Dean." Li Bai finally spoke, his voice was very soft, and his state was very strange, as if his consciousness was wandering outside his brain, "Is Xiaoyu there?"
"Oh... Xiaoyu, I'm going to check if they are asleep, I... are you in a hurry? I'll go there now."
"Excuse me, I have something to ask him."
"Good good..."
For some reason, Li Bai's tone made the dean inexplicably nervous. He kept on talking and ran towards the child's room.
"Xiaoyu, Officer Li is looking for you."
The child was still asleep, sitting at the table drawing, still calm, not surprised by Li Bai's call, and took the phone with his hand.
"Hey?……"
Looking up, the dean at the door was still staring at him closely. The child pretended to pause for a while, jumped off the chair, and said to the dean, "I want to whisper to my brother, is that okay?"
His innocent and harmless smile conquered the dean immediately, and he nodded and let him go out of the corridor.
Cheng Yu went to the stone chair in the backyard and sat down. He looked around and made sure that there was no one there, so he took the initiative to say, "You saw it."
"Xiaoyu, what do you mean by giving me these...?"
"That's what I mean, brother, you are very good to me, so I don't want to deceive you."
"So... you really killed..." Li Bai on the other end tried his best to suppress his emotions, he found that at this moment, he was not as calm as a child.
"Well, I voluntarily went with the traffickers on the condition that they help me kill that man."
Li Bai fell into an ice cave. He curled up beside the sofa, his body was still covered in mist and water droplets from the shower, his head was deeply buried in his knees, and he was in excruciating pain.
And the child on the other side, how could he think that his unintentional frankness brought back the other party's painful memories of the past.
"Brother, don't you like me doing this? I just don't want to deceive you..."
Li Bai never answered.
"Or, do you want to catch me?"
……
"He didn't answer me that night and hung up the phone."
Back to the present, Cheng Yu recounted it to Han Xin and the others while recalling,
"I thought he was angry, but after thinking about it... the state is not right, and anger should not be like this.... So what happened to him?"
Li Bai's phrase "I am the same as him" originally meant this.
But what did Zhou Wen want to do by stealing Cheng Yu's blood sample?
One of the elements to reproduce Li Bai's "murder scene" is blood, which comes from the man's disgusting bloody smell, which once filled Li Bai's safe area-wardrobe, making him no longer able to hide in the only place where he felt safe. A place of security.
And using Cheng Yu's blood, are you mocking these two mobs?
Han Xin closed his eyes, "Something happened to him, he is in the hospital."
"Can I go and see him?"
"He doesn't want to see anyone right now. I'll convey it to you. If he agrees, you can go there again. By the way...the last question." Han Xin put all his things back into the iron box and took out his mobile phone. "Do you know?" This person?"
Cheng Yu looked at Zhou Wen's photo on the phone screen and shook his head in confusion.
Zhuge Liang carefully observed the expression changes on his face. As a person who has studied for a doctorate in psychology, even if it is a specially trained disguise, as long as there is a slight flaw, he will be caught by himself. However, this time, Zhuge Liang did not find this child Something is wrong.He didn't know Zhou Wen, so it should be true. ...Unless, the child's city is unfathomable, it would be terrible.
"We'll get back to you."
"Are you going to arrest me?" the child asked, provocative in his words.
However, Han Xin made a private decision to cover up in front of the two colleagues, "No one else will know about this matter. From now on, you..."
"Thank you brother." Then the child's tone became even more arrogant.The arrogance made Han Xin feel a little uncomfortable, but for Li Bai's sake, he managed to be calm towards him, and even thought of caring about his "personal feelings" for a few moments.
"I heard from the dean that you were very sad after that girl was adopted?" He shouldn't have asked this question.
The little boy smiled slightly, "I'm not sad, I don't like her."
"...you don't like her, why do you act like you like her?"
"Everyone thinks that I like her, and Li Bai also thinks so. I am trying to please everyone, right?"
"..."
"Brother, I was originally an orphan. Orphans have no human rights, let alone the right to choose how to live. Only by pleasing others can we continue to survive."
These few words obviously made Zhuge Liang, who was also from an orphanage, uncomfortable. He took a deep breath, turned his head and left without saying a word.He didn't like the kid from the bottom of his heart.
Han Xin looked back at the back of Zhuge Liang leaving angrily, and couldn't help admiring the person who could annoy him. At the same time, he felt that this child seemed to be too mature. If he saw a little innocence in him when he came back last time, then the The disappearance once only shows that these are all faked by the other party.
"But if you have to say someone you like, it's not like there aren't any."
"..." Han Xin was slightly stunned. In an instant, the instinctive alarm bell made him look serious and stared at Cheng Yu.
Facing his sharp scrutiny, the child was not afraid, let alone dodged, and even raised his head slightly. For a moment, there was a subtle and strange aura between the two of them, and the situation was fierce.
In the end, Han Xin still didn’t get his answer, although he didn’t want to know, so he just ended the conversation by saying, “You can take care of yourself in the future.” For nothing else, if Cheng Yu’s matter is exposed, the police can follow suit after investigating To Li Bai's head.
After finishing speaking, he walked away.
Han Xin stepped on the thick snow and left. The trees he passed were so bare that there was no leaf left. It was clear that the last time he came, it was still full of shade.
At this moment, his mood was as heavy as the dead leaves scattered under the tree that no one cleaned.
After leaving the gate of the orphanage, Zhuge Liang was sitting on the front cover of the car waiting for him.
"...There is one thing I still can't figure out."
As soon as Han Xin asked, Zhuge Liang raised his head in response.
"Why Zhou Wen injected Li Bai with Veritaserum... instead of..."
"Instead of what?"
"That night he was in the hallway, and told me clearly that he made Li Bai 'become like him'. I thought it was drugs, or a potion that could tamper with pheromones."
Who knew that Zhuge Liang immediately vetoed Han Xin's conjecture, with a serious face, "No, it can't be morphine. In other words, it is absolutely impossible for him to make Li Bai become like him. In my impression, he is an extremely egotistical person." , do not allow others to have the slightest similarity to himself, because in his eyes, he himself is a model standard, and all those who imitate others must be eradicated, so as to maintain his uniqueness. Didn’t you find it? His behavior style is also in this way."
"...So he was fooling me that night?"
"It also looks like something he would do. It's not surprising. On the contrary, it makes sense to inject Veritaserum. He wants Li Bai to admit what he did in front of everyone."
"..." Han Xin was silent for a long time, and suddenly jumped to the next topic: "You know where Li Bai's mother lives, right?"
Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, apparently not knowing whether he should answer truthfully, so he also chose not to speak.
"Take me there, I have to let them meet."
"What do you want to do? Li Bai seldom goes home. He just doesn't want to disturb the life of his mother and stepfather. Now you suddenly..."
Han Xin realized that Zhuge Liang was obviously trying to avoid this incident, and immediately bit him, because he knew that he might have found a key clue.
"Before the ambulance came that night, before he passed out, he was calling for his mother. Zhuge Liang, it's already this time, what are you trying to hide from me!"
"...I can't say."
"What else can't be said!?"
"I said I can't say it," Zhuge Liang turned his head evasively, took a deep breath, his tired eyes were full of helplessness, "I promised him what he couldn't say, and I made an exception to tell you. What do you think of me? ?”
"..." Han Xin was silent for a while, and finally couldn't bear to drag him off the hood of the car, pulled Zhuge Liang and pushed him into the passenger seat, "You take me to find his mother now, I will ask myself! "
TBC
"Zhuge Liang, I have something to ask you."
Zhuge Liang turned his head and buried himself deeper into Zhao Yun's arms.
"Don't look for me now."
"But I want to know the answer now."
Zhuge Liang took a deep breath, impatient for the first time in his words: "Can you let me be quiet for half an hour."
"..."
"Han Xin, don't speak so harshly, no one owes you." Zhao Yun felt uncomfortable listening to Han Xin's tone, and finally inserted a sentence, "You should go and see Li Bai first."
Li Bai was no longer lying on the hospital bed, and sat up leaning on the pillow, his eyes were blank, he didn't know what he was thinking.
This time, Han Xin didn't ask questions first, but walked in and sat gently beside the bed.
"The doctor said you need to rest now, lie down and sleep for a while."
Li Bai slowly raised his head. In a short time, his face seemed paler and haggard than before, and his eye sockets were even sunken.
"...You know all about it..."
Whispering, with trembling sounds, he was obviously afraid of knowing the answer, but he still forced himself to ask.
But in fact, the answer has been known for a long time, so it is a declarative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.
Han Xin stretched out his hand and pulled him into his arms, and answered irrelevantly: "It's all over."
Li Bai was dazed and didn't struggle, lying on Han Xin's chest in a daze, with a pair of numb eyes open.
"I wanted to tell you," he murmured, "I've wanted to tell you—"
"It's okay," Han Xin interrupted him quickly, "It doesn't matter, I don't care."
"But there is a price to be paid for killing people," Li Bai raised his head, his eyes were swollen with despair and confusion, "That feeling has tortured me for so many years, but I don't think I can forget it after a long time. On the contrary, they -"
Before Li Bai finished speaking, Han Xin suddenly lifted his chin and sealed it with a kiss.
This kiss was affectionate, tender and cautious. Han Xin took the opportunity to embrace him in his arms. Li Bai's legs were folded on his, and half of his body was leaning on his upper body. The sun shone in from outside and shone on both of them. .
Han Xin's body is like a wall, keeping all the sunshine for him.It was also like a cradle, making Li Bai feel as if he had fallen into the softness full of security, and fell asleep quickly as hell, with his eyelids as heavy as a mountain.
Before falling asleep, only Han Xin could understand the vague hesitation.
"...I'm so sorry..."
"There's nothing to regret."
Li Bai closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "I regret that I am not as strong as you."
"...Go to sleep for a while, be obedient."
Li Bai buried himself greedily into Han Xin's neck, rubbed the man's glands across the thunder pool, took a deep breath, and sucked in the man's pheromone smell.
He is looking for security.
Han Xin's body stiffened instantly.
But this time, he was in control.No matter how Li Bai smelled it, it would no longer have an attack.Instead, in the end, he even stretched out his hand to press the opponent's head hard on his own neck.
If it makes him feel at ease.
——Han Xin turned his head slightly, aimed at Li Bai's gland, and bit down gently.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhuge Liang's figure appeared at the door of the ward.
Li Bai had already fallen asleep with Han Xin on his pillow, and the nurse came in and reinserted the drip needle for him. This time, sleeping medicine was added to the nutrient solution.
Just as Han Xin wanted to make a move, the person at the door stopped him with his lips.
Zhuge Liang shook his head, and said with his slightly parted lips, "Come out, I can't go in."
At that time, Han Xin put him back on the bed and covered him with the quilt, staring at his slender eyelashes that were still trembling in his sleep, reluctant to part.
"Who will be in charge of guarding the ward next?" Han Xin asked as he walked to the door.
"Lv Bu and Zhao Yun will make arrangements."
"Is it reliable?"
"It's better than you alone. And I saw your father on the phone just now, so he should be planning to take care of this?"
"...Okay then, let's go and talk in another place." Han Xin glanced at Zhao Yun beside him, "It's just the two of us."
"That's what I meant too."
While walking, Zhuge Liang had already begun to explain calmly: "I asked just now, Cheng Yu is in the orphanage, and nothing happened. A while ago, the orphanage had a group medical examination, so his blood should have been stolen from the hospital like this of."
"I have to go find him, you go with me."
"...It's okay for me to go with you, but I must bring the third team of bodyguards that Zhao Yun arranged for me. And he will definitely come with me."
"Then let him ride in the same car with the bodyguards. Li Bai only told you what happened back then, but he chose to entrust these things to me for safekeeping. We must respect him and not let more people know."
"I know. So what did Li Bai give you, can you let me see it?"
Han Xin hesitated for a moment, but handed it to Zhuge Liang.
"Did he poison anyone when he was a child?" Unlike Zhuge Liang who was honestly told by himself, Han Xin made a reasonable and well-founded guess based on the current situation.
"...Well. On the face of it."
"What is superficial?"
"After he told me these things back then, I immediately went through the files and checked secretly. I found that man... No, the two men he thought he killed didn't die because of him at all."
"..."
When Zhuge Liang was thinking, the frequency of blinking would increase, "The first man he 'killed' was around eight years old. His name was Wen Guoxiong. He was a man of the hour in City C. He was an entrepreneur. He was around 45 years old. The real cause of death was a heart attack at home, and it is true, the poison Li Bai bought was not poison at all, but ordinary vitamin C tablets."
"?!" Han Xin was surprised, "How do you know?"
"I sealed up that illegal pharmacy in the old town," Zhuge Liang said indifferently. "During the interrogation, they said that they had never sold any 'poison' or 'elixir'.

"Have you told Li Bai?"
"I said it, and I also said that the other man was not killed by him, but he still can't forgive himself."
"...What about the second one?"
"The second person is Wen Jingyun. He is the same age as the first deceased in the same village. He is also powerful. He and Wen Guoxiong often colluded together after they made a fortune and went to the red light district to have fun. They both once...cough , continued to harass Li Bai's biological mother. Speaking of which, this person suddenly found Li Bai's new home to entangle with Li Bai and the others two years after Wen Guoxiong's death. Wen Jingyun's only son also ran away from home and disappeared. Wen Jingyun's profit chain suffered heavy losses, and it took a long time to make a comeback."
"Then how did he die?"
"On the surface, he was hit on the head by a heavy object, and died after being unconscious. But in fact, he woke up the next day.

But for so many years, because he had murderous intentions, he was tortured by nightmares day and night, and he regretted it endlessly.
The hospital is relatively close to the orphanage, and it takes less than 10 minutes to arrive.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a few children squatting in the yard to make snowmen. The principal wrapped himself tightly and stood aside, warming the children with handbags from time to time. The yard was full of joy.
Han Xin walked over quickly and greeted politely, "Dean."
"Eh? Police officer Han, why are you here?" The dean looked away from the children, and was shocked when he saw Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang, who were unfamiliar faces, and the bodyguards of the three groups behind them. Slow down: "...this...you are?"
Han Xin sighed, turned his head and looked at the two people: "I just said that you bodyguards are scary, and you have to bring them to the orphanage. What should I do if I scare the children."
Sure enough, Zhao Yun, who insisted on following, coughed lightly, waved at the group of people, and signaled them to wait outside the door.
"Dean, is Xiaoyu there?"
"Oh, yes, but he seems to be in a bad mood these days," the dean thoughtfully, "Huihui was adopted away, and he has been posting for several days. Speaking of which, Li Bai Why didn't the police officer come? I was thinking that if he came, Xiaoyu would be in a better mood if he liked him so much..."
"Huihui?" Han Xin thought about it carefully. It should be the girl who played with Xiaoyu that day. Li Bai also joked that he was envious of their early love, "Well...then where is he now?"
"Should be sitting in the backyard, he has been doing this for the past few days."
"understood."
The weather in January was really freezing. The little boy sat on the swing, and his thick clothes were piled up, making his small body look fatter.The other children in the backyard ran past laughingly, but he was also indifferent, quietly flipping through the picture album on his lap.
"Xiaoyu, do you remember me?"
The little boy raised his head slowly, remained silent for a few seconds, and closed the album, "Are you here to find me?"
Han Xinxin was still thinking about the people in the hospital, so he didn't have the time to go around, and passed the things straight to the point, "You gave these to Li Bai?"
Cheng Yu nodded: "I gave it to him."
"So," Han Xin frowned gradually, "What do you want to tell him..."
"He called me that night." Before Han Xin could finish speaking, Cheng Yu interrupted him first, his face so calm that he didn't seem like a child should react, "It was the time you came together last time. "
"...What did he tell you?"
"he ask me……"
……
"Officer Li Bai?" A few months ago, on a night in late autumn, the dean received an unexpected call from Li Bai, who had just arrived during the day. something?"
There was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time. The dean stood in the empty corridor, inexplicably feeling a sudden wind behind him.
"...Officer Li?"
"Dean." Li Bai finally spoke, his voice was very soft, and his state was very strange, as if his consciousness was wandering outside his brain, "Is Xiaoyu there?"
"Oh... Xiaoyu, I'm going to check if they are asleep, I... are you in a hurry? I'll go there now."
"Excuse me, I have something to ask him."
"Good good..."
For some reason, Li Bai's tone made the dean inexplicably nervous. He kept on talking and ran towards the child's room.
"Xiaoyu, Officer Li is looking for you."
The child was still asleep, sitting at the table drawing, still calm, not surprised by Li Bai's call, and took the phone with his hand.
"Hey?……"
Looking up, the dean at the door was still staring at him closely. The child pretended to pause for a while, jumped off the chair, and said to the dean, "I want to whisper to my brother, is that okay?"
His innocent and harmless smile conquered the dean immediately, and he nodded and let him go out of the corridor.
Cheng Yu went to the stone chair in the backyard and sat down. He looked around and made sure that there was no one there, so he took the initiative to say, "You saw it."
"Xiaoyu, what do you mean by giving me these...?"
"That's what I mean, brother, you are very good to me, so I don't want to deceive you."
"So... you really killed..." Li Bai on the other end tried his best to suppress his emotions, he found that at this moment, he was not as calm as a child.
"Well, I voluntarily went with the traffickers on the condition that they help me kill that man."
Li Bai fell into an ice cave. He curled up beside the sofa, his body was still covered in mist and water droplets from the shower, his head was deeply buried in his knees, and he was in excruciating pain.
And the child on the other side, how could he think that his unintentional frankness brought back the other party's painful memories of the past.
"Brother, don't you like me doing this? I just don't want to deceive you..."
Li Bai never answered.
"Or, do you want to catch me?"
……
"He didn't answer me that night and hung up the phone."
Back to the present, Cheng Yu recounted it to Han Xin and the others while recalling,
"I thought he was angry, but after thinking about it... the state is not right, and anger should not be like this.... So what happened to him?"
Li Bai's phrase "I am the same as him" originally meant this.
But what did Zhou Wen want to do by stealing Cheng Yu's blood sample?
One of the elements to reproduce Li Bai's "murder scene" is blood, which comes from the man's disgusting bloody smell, which once filled Li Bai's safe area-wardrobe, making him no longer able to hide in the only place where he felt safe. A place of security.
And using Cheng Yu's blood, are you mocking these two mobs?
Han Xin closed his eyes, "Something happened to him, he is in the hospital."
"Can I go and see him?"
"He doesn't want to see anyone right now. I'll convey it to you. If he agrees, you can go there again. By the way...the last question." Han Xin put all his things back into the iron box and took out his mobile phone. "Do you know?" This person?"
Cheng Yu looked at Zhou Wen's photo on the phone screen and shook his head in confusion.
Zhuge Liang carefully observed the expression changes on his face. As a person who has studied for a doctorate in psychology, even if it is a specially trained disguise, as long as there is a slight flaw, he will be caught by himself. However, this time, Zhuge Liang did not find this child Something is wrong.He didn't know Zhou Wen, so it should be true. ...Unless, the child's city is unfathomable, it would be terrible.
"We'll get back to you."
"Are you going to arrest me?" the child asked, provocative in his words.
However, Han Xin made a private decision to cover up in front of the two colleagues, "No one else will know about this matter. From now on, you..."
"Thank you brother." Then the child's tone became even more arrogant.The arrogance made Han Xin feel a little uncomfortable, but for Li Bai's sake, he managed to be calm towards him, and even thought of caring about his "personal feelings" for a few moments.
"I heard from the dean that you were very sad after that girl was adopted?" He shouldn't have asked this question.
The little boy smiled slightly, "I'm not sad, I don't like her."
"...you don't like her, why do you act like you like her?"
"Everyone thinks that I like her, and Li Bai also thinks so. I am trying to please everyone, right?"
"..."
"Brother, I was originally an orphan. Orphans have no human rights, let alone the right to choose how to live. Only by pleasing others can we continue to survive."
These few words obviously made Zhuge Liang, who was also from an orphanage, uncomfortable. He took a deep breath, turned his head and left without saying a word.He didn't like the kid from the bottom of his heart.
Han Xin looked back at the back of Zhuge Liang leaving angrily, and couldn't help admiring the person who could annoy him. At the same time, he felt that this child seemed to be too mature. If he saw a little innocence in him when he came back last time, then the The disappearance once only shows that these are all faked by the other party.
"But if you have to say someone you like, it's not like there aren't any."
"..." Han Xin was slightly stunned. In an instant, the instinctive alarm bell made him look serious and stared at Cheng Yu.
Facing his sharp scrutiny, the child was not afraid, let alone dodged, and even raised his head slightly. For a moment, there was a subtle and strange aura between the two of them, and the situation was fierce.
In the end, Han Xin still didn’t get his answer, although he didn’t want to know, so he just ended the conversation by saying, “You can take care of yourself in the future.” For nothing else, if Cheng Yu’s matter is exposed, the police can follow suit after investigating To Li Bai's head.
After finishing speaking, he walked away.
Han Xin stepped on the thick snow and left. The trees he passed were so bare that there was no leaf left. It was clear that the last time he came, it was still full of shade.
At this moment, his mood was as heavy as the dead leaves scattered under the tree that no one cleaned.
After leaving the gate of the orphanage, Zhuge Liang was sitting on the front cover of the car waiting for him.
"...There is one thing I still can't figure out."
As soon as Han Xin asked, Zhuge Liang raised his head in response.
"Why Zhou Wen injected Li Bai with Veritaserum... instead of..."
"Instead of what?"
"That night he was in the hallway, and told me clearly that he made Li Bai 'become like him'. I thought it was drugs, or a potion that could tamper with pheromones."
Who knew that Zhuge Liang immediately vetoed Han Xin's conjecture, with a serious face, "No, it can't be morphine. In other words, it is absolutely impossible for him to make Li Bai become like him. In my impression, he is an extremely egotistical person." , do not allow others to have the slightest similarity to himself, because in his eyes, he himself is a model standard, and all those who imitate others must be eradicated, so as to maintain his uniqueness. Didn’t you find it? His behavior style is also in this way."
"...So he was fooling me that night?"
"It also looks like something he would do. It's not surprising. On the contrary, it makes sense to inject Veritaserum. He wants Li Bai to admit what he did in front of everyone."
"..." Han Xin was silent for a long time, and suddenly jumped to the next topic: "You know where Li Bai's mother lives, right?"
Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, apparently not knowing whether he should answer truthfully, so he also chose not to speak.
"Take me there, I have to let them meet."
"What do you want to do? Li Bai seldom goes home. He just doesn't want to disturb the life of his mother and stepfather. Now you suddenly..."
Han Xin realized that Zhuge Liang was obviously trying to avoid this incident, and immediately bit him, because he knew that he might have found a key clue.
"Before the ambulance came that night, before he passed out, he was calling for his mother. Zhuge Liang, it's already this time, what are you trying to hide from me!"
"...I can't say."
"What else can't be said!?"
"I said I can't say it," Zhuge Liang turned his head evasively, took a deep breath, his tired eyes were full of helplessness, "I promised him what he couldn't say, and I made an exception to tell you. What do you think of me? ?”
"..." Han Xin was silent for a while, and finally couldn't bear to drag him off the hood of the car, pulled Zhuge Liang and pushed him into the passenger seat, "You take me to find his mother now, I will ask myself! "
