dead innocent

Wu Yaowen walked out of Tianwailou Jucha House and stood on the sidewalk amidst the rushing crowd.Under the scorching sun, he looked like a weathered and worn-out stone sculpture, with dark skin and a sallow complexion.The gray eyeballs are like two stones embedded in the cracked black earth, full of solid and invincible strength.

He stood on the sidewalk, bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, covering his face, making him feel sore at the corners of his eyes, dripping all the way to his chapped and white lips.Passers-by looked at him with the eyes of beggars or dementia, and then hurried past him.

He licked his rough and chapped lips, wiped off the sweat on his face with his hands like a migrant worker, his rotten wood-like eyeballs moved slightly, and walked towards a black Haval parked on the side of the road.

He came to the car window and knocked on the dark car window. In an instant, the car window slowly lowered to half the height, and the man sitting in the driver's seat showed the upper half of his face wearing sunglasses.

Wu Yaowen looked at the cold, dark sunglasses, bowed his waist and said humbly: "I am Wu Xiaoshuang's father, I am looking for Mr. Jiang."

The black Haval got into the traffic and disappeared as quietly as it came.

Beiling Street and Shuwanggong Avenue are not far away. There is only a pedestrian street between them. It takes only 10 minutes to walk to reach the distance. At this time, the afternoon rush hour has not yet passed. If you drive, you will be stuck on the road for more than [-] minutes. , so Chu Xingyun decisively chose to abandon the car and walk, crossing the intersection and walking straight to the east.

He Cheng originally wanted to drive, but Chu Xingyun insisted on walking, so he followed him on foot, followed by two plainclothes bodyguards ten meters away.

Chu Xingyun looked back at the two bodyguards who mixed into the crowd. They were tall and dark-skinned, with serious faces and resolute expressions. They walked squarely and squarely, and even their steps were almost the same.

"General He's soldiers?"

he asks.

He Cheng didn't care and said, "I don't know, I arrived last night."

Chu Xingyun glanced at him: "You have to appreciate it."

He Cheng curled his lips and smiled perfunctorily: "Who do you want? General He?"

The relationship among He Cheng's family members is a bit cold. His parents divorced early in his life, and his father used the military region as his home all the year round. The number of times he has returned home in the past twenty years or so can be counted by hand.When I came home and saw my son, I still did not change the style of the head of the military region who followed orders and prohibited.

He Cheng was in poor health when he was a child and had been sick all the time. His father thought it was because the living environment was too comfortable and comfortable that he fell into a sick body.In order to exercise his physique, he threw He Cheng's stripped underwear into the yard in winter when there was heavy snow and goose feathers. As a result, He Cheng became seriously ill and had a high fever for a week. He almost didn't burn to death. Chu Xingyun was so anxious that he almost went with him.

His father still thinks he is squeamish, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside, he is nothing compared to his brother.His elder brother is He Ying, who is seven or eight years older than him, and was sent to the military academy early to study and hone his skills.He Cheng didn't have a deep impression of his brother at all, but when he was compared by his father, he gradually loathed and hated He Ying.

One year He Ying came back, he was eighteen or nineteen years old, he was handsome and charming, and he looked amazing in a military uniform. At that time, He Cheng was only eleven and Chu Xingyun was fifteen.When Chu Xingyun met He Ying for the first time, he felt that he had found his direction in life. During the days when He Ying came home, he worshiped He Ying wholeheartedly like every big boy would have a neighbor who adored him. .

He Ying cared more about his younger brother at home, and used the broken parts of tanks in the military academy to pinch He Cheng a lifelike little monkey.Because He Cheng is a monkey, He Cheng has been indifferent and withdrawn since he was a child, and he never smiled at anyone except Chu Xingyun. He even smiled at him for the first time after receiving his brother's gift, which is quite gracious.But it didn't take long, and he quickly locked the little monkey in a drawer and didn't want to look at it again.

Because Chu Xingyun was not as affectionate to him as before, one night Chu Xingyun came back after a long time after dinner.His body was stained with dirt, his clothes were scratched by a wild animal, his face was blue and red, and there was still blood on his lips. It was obvious that he had fought with someone, and the battle was very fierce.

Although Chu Xingyun was very skinny when he was a child, he seldom fought with others. Today, he obviously caused a beating.

Everyone was taken aback and gathered around to greet him.He Cheng, who was the smallest, couldn't squeeze through, so he stood in the living room and stared blankly at him.

Chu Xingyun gritted his teeth and buried his head without saying a word. He didn't say anything when he asked him, his fists were clenched tightly, and he seemed to want to go out and fight again.Suddenly, as if he remembered something, his drooping eyes suddenly lifted up, and he aimed at He Cheng who was standing not far away. A layer of blood suddenly appeared on his green and red face, and blood was dripping from the roots of his red ears. .He broke through the crowd and ran up to the second floor, rushed into He Cheng's room and moved out all his belongings, and thus 'separated' from He Cheng.

He Cheng still doesn't know who Chu Xingyun fought with that day and why.It was also from that day that Chu Xingyun moved out of his room, and he was not as close to him as before. He Cheng put this account on He Ying, thinking that Chu Xingyun had found a better partner, so he distanced himself over him.

This is just his guess. What is the real reason? He only asked Chu Xingyun when he was drunk last time, and the answer is still a mystery.

In short, He Cheng doesn't have deep feelings for his father or his brother.The only one who is close is his grandfather, which is relatively speaking.

He Cheng is extremely vengeful, and it seems that he has not yet come out of the shadow of the past.Chu Xingyun saw him sneering with frost all over his face, and suppressed the words 'your brother called me in the morning to ask about your situation' back word by word.If he said it out, He Cheng would definitely be even more angry, and then sneered and said, "Why did you call you to ask me about my situation?"Your relationship is really good! '

Sometimes Chu Xingyun really doesn't understand, whether He Cheng can't understand him getting close to He Ying, or he can't understand He Ying getting close to him.

He Cheng has been looking at him from the corner of his eye, seeing that he is thinking carefully and keeping his head buried in silence, he can guess what is going on in his mind, so he said: "Shut up."

Chu Xingyun: "... What did I say?"

He Cheng quietly tensed his jaw with a cold look on his face, and said coldly: "I know what you want to say."

Chu Xingyun pursed his lips hard, closed his eyes to take a breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were filled with the holy light of the priest full of benevolence and forgiveness, and said: "Okay, I won't say it, I won't say it. "

Unexpectedly, He Cheng didn't appreciate it, so he stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at him directly, his eyes were full of needles, and he said aggressively: "Then you planned to say it?"

Chu Xingyun has a deep understanding of what is meant by 'the crown prince told you to take the blame, you have to take the blame, you have to take the blame, you have to take the blame if you don't take it'!

"If you don't let me say it, I won't say it."

"Then what if I don't say it? You just say it?"

"No what if! I didn't fucking say anything!"

"Oh, you didn't say it on your mouth, but you must have said it in your heart!"

"You don't care if I said it in my heart, but I didn't say it!"

"Even if you don't say it, I know what you're thinking, so don't say it, don't even think about it!"

"Then you're saying that I have to get your consent for what I think?"

"I didn't say that, you don't go online, I mean you can't think about what you just thought in front of me, let alone say it!"

"You—do you know what I was thinking just now, so don't let me say it!"

"Why don't I know, everything you want to say is written in your eyes!"

"Then tell me, what's written in my eyes?"

"I do not want to say!"

Chu Xingyun's head was muffled, and he felt tens of thousands of wasps lined up in circles in front of his eyes, making him dizzy.Before the debate of 'talking or not' turned into the ninth largest unsolved mystery in the world, he raised his hand to end the debate, and hurriedly stopped the debate: "Why do I feel that we have diverged? What do you mean?" Who is it?"

He Cheng stared at him as if he was an enemy, panting heavily with his chest heaving unsteadily, biting his back teeth with his jaw tensed and not speaking.

Chu Xingyun waved away the hornets in front of him, and found the center of the problem: "You mean He Ying?"

He Cheng: "You still talk!"

Chu Xingyun was inexplicably guilty, after all, he really planned to talk about He Ying just now.Seeing He Cheng's appearance of being about to bleed to death after being touched by Ni Lin, I couldn't help but start worrying about his injuries, so I quickly raised my hands to promise: "Okay, I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't say it in the future, and I will never say it again." explain!"

As he spoke, he pulled him under a row of palm trees on the sidewalk, avoiding the crowds, and fanned him a few times with his hand as a fan, and said with a smile: "Calm down, calm down."

He Cheng's bloody complexion softened slightly, his eyes brushed past Chu Xingyun's face like a row of sharp swords, he took off his sweat-drenched suit jacket and waved his hands away, and raised his feet to move forward gone.

He and He Cheng always quarreled like this, they quarreled out of nowhere, the beginning was confused, the process was extremely intense, and the end was always rushed, after the quarrel, looking back, I was at a loss, and had no idea what the quarrel was about just now.

He Cheng rushed forward for nearly [-] meters, suddenly turned his head and saw that Chu Xingyun was far behind, so he stopped and stood under the shade of a tree to wait for him.

Chu Xingyun walked to him slowly, looked at his face, smiled like a cat and said, "Don't be angry anymore? Let's go, it will take a lot of time."

Before he knew it, he had arrived at Shugong North Street. North Street was still more lively than other places during the day, and it was more attractive for men and women to go shopping and spend. He Cheng took him into two bars.Walking to the cash register at the counter, he took a look at a box of lighters on the counter, and found that it was very similar to the one on Wu Yaowen's body, both with red lines on a black background, but not exactly the same. The one on Wu Yaowen's body was still There are imprints of colored feathers.

"It is the same?"

Chu Xingyun asked.

He Cheng picked up one and looked around under the light that was still on during the day, and said, "No, a feather is missing."

The girl at the bar saw that they came here with impure intentions, so she asked three questions with a cautious attitude, and said they were newcomers when she asked again.

Chu Xingyun calmed down like a child and said: "You just need to tell me that the nearby store has this kind of lighter with feathers."

"I really don't know, why don't you go to the front and have a look, this street is not just our bar."

Chu Xingyun said in his heart that there are too many nightclubs to ask clearly. If you ask every family, it will be dark.

It was daytime at this time, and the bar was not half full. I asked a few customers, but none of them knew, so I had no choice but to ask one by one.

Walking to the Shu Palace entertainment club, they came today by coincidence, a group of young people gathered in the small square diagonally opposite the Shu Palace, all young men and women who had deliberately dressed up.The costumes are weird, the faces are heavily made up, the women wear colorful headbands, and apply a few gorgeous eye shadows, and the men paint a rainbow-like oil paint on their faces. There are always hundreds of people who are eloquent.The last time Chu Xingyun saw such a dress was at the opening ceremony of the World Cup in Brazil.

These people were all colorful, and they came to meet them in groups from the small square, and the crowd was very impressive.

The locomotive convoy of cheering and howling men and women flew past them, Chu Xingyun looked at the huge crowd coming towards him, but couldn't hear what they were shouting, so he asked He Cheng: "What's going on? "

He Cheng didn't seem surprised, he pushed his glasses calmly, changed the suit jacket in his hand from his left hand to his right hand, and said, "Have you never seen it? A gay group parade."

This—he had never seen it before.

He has seen quite a few comrades, but this is the first time he has seen a comrade parade.In a blink of an eye, they merged with the parade team. Because the street was wide, it was not crowded. The men and women painted with rainbows turned a blind eye to the two people who broke into their team, and walked around them cheering.While looking at the crowd around him, Chu Xingyun played with the lighter he took out from the bar.

Soon, he noticed a line of sight in front of him was watching him.He looked closely, and saw a tall man with shoulder-length hair and a tall figure looking at him with a smile. The man looked very outstanding, and the rainbow flag on his face did not conceal his handsome appearance.

Chu Xingyun was about to stop him to ask for clues, and kept his eyes on him. The man seemed to be approaching him intentionally, and deliberately moved a few steps in his direction.

The man quickly walked in front of him, Chu Xingyun raised his hand, and just when he was about to speak, he saw the man suddenly leaned over, and quickly kissed the corner of his lips near his chin.

Chu Xingyun raised his half-lifted hand, and suddenly froze——

At the same time, He Cheng was also stunned, and that man had already walked away laughing loudly amidst the whistles of his companions.

He Cheng froze on the spot, as if he was being struck by lightning, he noticed that Chu Xingyun had met a man, and was about to express something, when he saw Chu Xingyun was kissed by that man.

Chu Xingyun was kissed by that man...

Chu Xingyun was kissed by a man...

Chu Xingyun was kissed...

He Cheng heard very clearly the sound of strings breaking in his head, very crisp and very loud.Then a piece of spark fell in the middle of the broken string, as if the sun-dried dry wood was ignited by a torch, and it burned up overwhelmingly with a 'boom' sound.

Chu Xingyun was the first to react. Before he had time to express himself, he heard He Cheng roaring: "What are you doing! What are you doing with long eyes? Can't you hide?!"

He Cheng was crazy, indeed he was crazy, he was able to restrain himself from catching up with that person like a shrew, punching and kicking him and uttering wild words to him was already keeping his bottom line.All other dignity and pride were burned up, and they didn't exist.

Chu Xingyun shuddered from being yelled at by him, and took a step back while clutching his throbbing heart. It was nothing to him to be treated lightly by a man, but He Cheng's rage-shattering voice almost knocked his soul out of him. scared fly.

Chu Xingyun covered his heart and wrinkled his face, looking overly frightened and frightened, he couldn't speak fluently: "You, you, you, keep your voice down, I didn't do it voluntarily."

He Cheng grabbed his wrist and dragged him into the sidewalk, blocking him from the flow of people outside, pointing to the two bodyguards standing not far away: "You two go find that bastard and chop him up!"

The two Marine Corps soldiers couldn't help but look at each other, thinking that the second son of the He family really looked a bit like the thunderous General He when he got angry.

"I asked you to chop him up! Didn't you hear that?!"

Chu Xingyun was afraid that he would really chop a bunch of people if he went crazy, so he quickly grabbed his hand and squeezed his palm tightly: "There is something wrong with you, wait for me to die and you will avenge me no!"

He Cheng turned his head and stared at him, his eyes were filled with red light, and his eyes were full of the brutality and blood in the eyes of primitive beasts: "It's not all your fault!"

Chu Xingyun: "Blame me again?"

"Do you think men don't have unreasonable thoughts about you? I told you who they are, and you don't even know how to hide!"

Chu Xingyun grinned and smiled: "Don't you also like men? Then I should hide from you too?"

At this moment, He Cheng's face also started to turn red, red for a while and then turn pale, turn white for a while and turn red again.After a long time, the arrogance all over his body was relieved, and he felt that the hand held by him was constantly hot, and the surface of the skin was almost burned.

He pulled out his hand forcefully, and turned his head to avoid Chu Xingyun's gaze. Although his tone was still scorching, he was much calmer: "Why are you hiding from me, I have never forced you."

Chu Xingyun felt that he was already confused, so confused that his words were disorganized. In order not to anger him, he, as a 'victim', turned to persuade a 'bystander'. He felt that this world is really hopeless.

Before he could say a few words of persuasion, the cell phone in his trouser pocket rang, and he took two steps away to answer the phone, not noticing that just as he walked away, He Cheng's cell phone rang too.

It was Qiao Shishi who called him, and Qiao Shishi's tone was very anxious: "Boss, there is a kidnapping case."

Chu Xingyun's face turned cold: "Who?"

"The person who posted the post and planted the bomb, he said that if He Cheng doesn't arrive at Building [-], Yiyang Road Development Zone, Huxi Lane within half an hour, he will live broadcast tearing up tickets!"

Chu Xingyun hung up the phone, and was confused for a moment, that person pointed the finger at He Cheng again, threatening He Cheng with his life to walk into the trap he set.

He turned around and saw He Cheng put away his phone and was also looking at him.

"Did you get the message?"

He Cheng asked.

Chu Xingyun nodded: "What about you?"

He Cheng smiled extremely coldly, and said, "This is the beginning."
