"Hey, don't look at me like that, I have already paid back the favor I owe you." Ding Chengye saw that Su Xian's eyes were full of hostility, but he couldn't move for a moment. He felt a little proud and a little bit sad, the two were completely different. His emotions were intertwined, which made his mood quite complicated. He knelt down, leaned close to Su Xian's ear, and said softly, "You blame me too, and I am just obeying orders."

Su Xian's expression was indifferent, his eyes were like two deep pools with thin ice floating, cold and dark, but the tight jaw line and lip line still exposed his inner anxiety.

He probably guessed the intention of the Comprehensive Management Bureau. If so, how could he let Zhong Yuncong be taken away?

But what can he do now?

Su Xian tried hard to raise his hand, but the end result was that his arm convulsed violently a few times, and he still couldn't use his strength.

Under the anger, his throat was sweet again.

For the first time, Su Xian found himself useless.

Fortunately, there are companions. After hearing the news of Zong Zhengzheng's death, Xie Cheng obviously lost his previous composure and patience. Although Ren Jie has a grudge against Zhong Yuncong, he can't just sit back and watch him be taken away by the pickets.

After all, in his current situation, if he fell into the hands of the Comprehensive Management Bureau, he might lose his life.

The two people stopped in front of Zhong Yuncong by coincidence, and confronted a group of pickets with unfriendly expressions, and the other party was not a fuel-efficient lamp, not only had a large number of people, but also carried a large number of weapons.

For a moment, armed guns and live ammunition were aimed at them eagerly.

Taking advantage of the moment when the sword was on the verge of breaking out, Yirou hastily pulled Zhong Yuncong back.

Zhong Yun has been tortured by illness from death to life. His flesh and bones are stiff, but his mind is clear. When the two sides are in a stalemate, Yirou's rash actions can easily break the balance. He said weakly: "Yirou, Leave me alone..."

"Where is this going..." Yirou naturally disagreed, but before she could finish her sentence, a gunshot rang out, and a bullet dangerously grazed her cheek, leaving a red mark.

Yirou was frightened and froze in place, looking pale at the shooter, Ding Chengye was still pointing the gun at her, and said in a casual voice, "Fortunately, you are a woman, so you are so lucky."

After Yirou was terrified, Zhong Yuncong closed his eyes tiredly, knowing that things would not be let go.

Ding Chengye thought he was merciful, but he didn't expect to touch Ren Jie's inverse scales. He sneered, and immediately after, the two pickets opposite him, holding their hearts in pain, fell to the ground and twitched. After a few moments, there was no sound.

He killed two people in a row in an instant, Ding Chengye was startled and angry, and with a wave of his hand, all the pickets immediately turned their guns, he gritted his teeth: "Shoot me!"

Unexpectedly, Xie Cheng gave a light snort of disdain, and then, all the gun barrels in his subordinates' hands disappeared, leaving only a flat cut, and naturally they all went silent.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and they never expected that the gun that was decisively killed a second ago turned into half a scrap of iron.

Xie Cheng said in a deep voice: "If there is a next time, your head will disappear."

Ding Chengye felt humiliated, and in desperation, he grabbed Su Xian's neckline with his backhand, and the hot muzzle directly touched his carotid artery. Su Xian trembled involuntarily, and Ding Chengye didn't look at Xie Cheng and the others. , looking directly at Zhong Yuncong gloomily: "Do you want to make a bet with me-see which side is faster?"

Zhong Yun's chest rose and fell continuously, and his breathing was short and heavy. He naturally understood what Ding Chengye meant—whether he broke Su Xian's neck or Xie Cheng cut off his head?

Of course he didn't dare to use Su Xian's life as a bargaining chip.

But the person who was taken as a hostage shook his head slightly at him. Zhong Yuncong knew what he meant, but turned a blind eye.

"...Stop it all for me." He took a deep breath and exhausted all his strength to forcefully stand up against the wall. The eyes of Xie Cheng and Ren Jie were fixed on his face, and Zhong Yun never paid attention to their aggrieved words His eyes just looked at Ding Chengye: "Let them go, I'll go with you."

Ding Chengye smiled triumphantly: "Officer Zhong Zhi'an is really interesting."

"You...!" A strong resentment gradually rose in Su Xian's heart, but it was not against Zhong Yuncong or his decision, but because of himself.

He dragged him down like a piece of trash.

He suddenly had a great desire to die.

Su Xian's lips moved: "You kill me."

Ding Chengye knew that these words were spoken to him, and he was slightly taken aback. Although his whole body was stained with blood and he was in a terrible state of distress, Su Xian was still pale and handsome, but his eyes were too hollow and depressing. It is not the depression that comes with disappointment, but the kind of depression that makes people lose their yearning for the light and hope.

It seems that he really thinks that Zhong Yuncong's death is more beneficial to Zhong Yuncong than living.

Ding Chengye raised his eyebrows, and his eyes drifted to the other side playfully. Zhong Yuncong obviously heard Su Xian's words, and his face turned pale in an instant.

This is interesting.

It's been a lot of fun watching them torture each other.

Such a situation obviously pleased Ding Chengye a lot. His finger was still on the trigger, but he didn't intend to fulfill Su Xian's wish.

The main reason is that it is unnecessary. After all, he still doesn't want to make things too big.

What's more, from its point of view, it would be difficult for Su Xian to survive tonight without him doing it.

"Since Magistrate Zhong cooperates with our work, I will naturally not embarrass Magistrate Su. But the premise is..." Ding Chengye smiled complacently, but his eyes still flitted past Ren and Xie with fear, Zhong Of course Yun Cong could see his concerns, he looked at the two of them: "Do as I say."

Xie Cheng wanted to say something else, but Zhong Yuncong's face turned cold: "Zong Ju said that after he left, I will be the next director of the Management Bureau——I am now ordering you as the director, to stand where you are. , no resistance is allowed, including you, Zheng Fei."

Zheng Fei was hesitant at first, because his supernatural power was too lethal, but after Su Xian was hijacked and Zhong Yuncong cast himself into the trap, he couldn't hold back any longer. Just when he was about to move, he was caught by Zhong Yun. Yun Cong was stunned by his words.

In fact, not only him, but the rest of Xie Cheng were also shocked.

"Don't you believe it?" Zhong Yuncong's eyes were as calm as water, "You can ask the Magistrate Su for verification."

Everyone turned their suspicious gazes to Su Xian, but he just stared at Zhong Yuncong, pursed his lips tightly and said nothing, after a while, he closed his eyes, leaving only a numb expression on his face.

Zhong Yuncong smiled: "Look, he didn't deny it."

Xie Cheng seemed to want to say something else, Zhong Yuncong shook his head at him: "Protecting you is also one of my responsibilities."

Ding Chengye was also surprised by his new identity, but this did not prevent him from continuing to perform his mission: "Let's not say whether it is true or not, but to take a step back, even if it is true, you haven't taken office yet, and since your illness has flared up, Even the director of the Administration Bureau cannot make an exception..."

"I know." Zhong Yuncong stretched out both hands to Ding Chengye, "So can we go?"

Such cooperation made Ding Chengye feel a little uneasy. He narrowed his eyes and waved his hands. Immediately, someone locked Zhong Yuncong's hands and feet.

While Xie Cheng and the others were surrounded by groups, they replaced a batch of new short guns. Zhong Yuncong glanced at the picket leader, who shrugged: "Don't worry, when we walk out of the hospital safely, my people will naturally will disperse."

Zhong Yun never made a sound, but exhaled slowly.

Although it was likely to be a trip that never came back, he didn't look at Su Xian again, whether it was because of reluctance, or because he didn't dare, he no longer wanted to distinguish.

Maybe both.

Just as the pickets were leading him to leave, a low-pitched cough suddenly came from the corner of the aisle: "Wait a minute."

When Zhong Yuncong heard this voice, his footsteps faltered, and the old man kept silently huddling in the dark, almost ignoring his existence.

What is he thinking?Zhong Yun jumped from his right eye and turned his head to look at him with difficulty.

"Captain Ding... Didn't that person let you take me with you?"

Ding Chengye was taken aback by Zhang Jiahe's question, the old man still had the same appearance of exhaling more air than inhaling, but it did not make Zhong Yuncong lower his vigilance at all, he stared at him warily: "... who?"

Zhang Jiahe smiled slyly: "Son... you are in danger of protecting yourself, so what do you care about so much?"

Zhong Yuncong responded mockingly: "Isn't it the same for you old man?"

Ding Chengye seemed to have thought of something when he heard the quarrel between them. He called a subordinate and whispered a few words. Immediately afterwards, the picket pulled Zhang Jiahe up from the ground and took him with him.

Ding Chengye had no intention of answering his questions at all, but at least one thing was exposed - the Zhang family and Ding Chengye and even the Integrated Management Bureau behind him were all connected.

Zhong Yuncong watched their actions coldly with gloomy eyes.

Zhang Jiahe lowered his head and coughed a few times, then raised his head under his complicated and unspeakable gaze, and smiled: "Son, today may be the last time our father and son meet... Do you want Dad to tell you a secret? It can be regarded as fulfilling our father-son relationship."

Zhong Yuncong staggered when being dragged by two pickets, and said angrily: "You bastard, don't listen to the scriptures."

Zhang Jiahe pointed to the person who was still sitting on the edge of the wall, and said softly: "Don't you listen to those who are related to him?"

Zhong Yuncong's breath stagnates: "...what?"

"Do you know how he was blind?"

Zhong Yuncong's hairs stood on end, and he instinctively yelled at him not to listen, but he still couldn't help but ask: "...what?"

"When you were a few months old, your right eye was infected, causing leukoplakia, and you were almost blind." Zhang Jiahe told him with a smile, "I can't bear to let you go blind in one eye, so I'm begging you A familiar doctor will help you find a suitable match.”

Zhong Yuncong's knuckles were stiff and his fingertips turned white. He vaguely guessed the follow-up, but he didn't want to believe it.

"My acquaintance is very face-saving and quickly found a suitable partner. He showed me the picture of the child. I still remember that he looks good and has a mole on his cheek... By the way, my acquaintance , named Xu Wenxin."

Zhong Yun turned his head back in panic, but he couldn't see Su Xian's expression clearly. He lowered his head, and the broken hair on his forehead covered most of his face.

Zhong Yun trembled from his hair like sifting chaff, and the bone-piercing cold humming filled the veins of his whole body.

It turned out that his eyes were blind because of me.

"But losing one eye is not the worst thing for him..." There was an unpredictable smile on Zhang Jiahe's lips, he carefully captured every expression on Zhong Yuncong's face, with great interest He continued vigorously, "Guess what happened after that?"

When Su Xian heard this, his eyelids moved slightly. After that... what happened?

At that time, when the epidemic just broke out, although the virus spread at an astonishing speed, there were still some people in the city who survived the disaster... Su Xian was one of them.

That should be attributed to his mother's strict protection of him, so there was still hope in the hearts of Mengchuan people at that time - after all, there were still healthy people among them.

But later, no matter how strict the defense was, the virus still eroded those people one by one. Su Xian felt that if there hadn't been that accident, his fate would not have changed much.

But he should have lived happily for a few more years if he hadn't had that horrific surgery.

Yes, he was accidentally infected with the "Paradise Lost" virus during that extremely crude operation.

Thinking about it now, it is still a nightmare that is hard to break free.

After listening to the cause and effect now, he actually has a feeling of irony.

But his eyes and mouth were like dry springs, and he could not shed tears or cry out.

Su Xian arched his back blades abruptly, like an old man in his dying years, there was a burning pain in his lungs, a fishy and warm liquid rushed up his throat, and turned into a string of bright red blood bubbles that overflowed from his lips and teeth .

Zhong Yun listened drowsily to the sinful debt that year, his head was about to split open, and seeing Su Xian vomiting blood, the picture in front of him seemed to be sprinkled with a layer of carbon powder, blurring into a black shadow, Gradually they all moved away from him.

It seems to be in the deep sea, surrounded by extreme cold and thick darkness, like an invisible giant hand choking the throat, breathing like a gossamer, dying.

Zhong Yun fell down heavily.
