Mountains and seas close at hand

Bai Xunhua could hear every word Pan Xiaohong said clearly, but his brain froze and couldn't think at this moment.

"...low temperature in the basement."

"The scientific research team has not yet issued a final report"

"This is an Ion Trap LC-MS..."

"...When Bai Ye dies, all he has left is the money in his bank card.

French fries, sandalwood chopsticks, Jinxiu five-grain rice, Kong Yuyi, ion trap liquid mass spectrometer, Ji Xian, tomato sauce, helicopter... Countless freeze-frame shots flashed in Bai Xunhua's mind, like countless photographic papers Flying all over the sky, the last one fell and sank into the lake.

Seeing that she was silent, Pan Xiaohong didn't rush her.He dug out the hemostatic gauze in the medical cart and wrapped it up for himself. Hearing the sound of Bai Xunhua standing up, he grabbed a handful of bottles and stuffed them into the large pocket of the hospital gown.

Without saying a word, the two walked out in a tacit understanding.

The heavy steel door opened slowly, and stepped into the elevator with one step.Pan Xiaohong pressed 3 hard, the round button marked B2 flashed three times, and the elevator slowly rose up.

In the silence, the sound of the elevator running was clearly audible.

Pan Xiaohong and Bai Xunhua leaned against the elevator wall on the left and on the right, looking through each other's shoulders - a face was reflected in the silver mirror.

There was tension between the brows, exhaustion in the eyes, and a resolute arc on the bloodless pale lips.

The round button marked "3" lights up, and the elevator pauses slightly.Pan Xiaohong's chapped lips opened a crack, and the stiff curve softened.Bai Xunhua returned a smile, and the tense atmosphere eased silently.

The elevator door opened slowly, and the air flow brushed over Bai Xunhua's cheeks, with a hint of warmth.

Pan Xiaohong leaned forward to look left and right, and walked out first.Bai Xunhua followed closely and stepped out of the elevator carefully.

When the elevator door is closed, there are two rows of bookcases.

This is a study room.

Rows of bookshelves are neatly arranged, an oak desk and a high-back chair are in the corner, and there is a floor-to-ceiling coat rack next to it.These small rooms are elegantly and compactly arranged.But it wasn't in the Ji Mansion, Bai Xunhua couldn't be sure.

"Downstairs is the laboratory." Pan Xiaohong said softly, "The person on duty has been killed by me."

Bai Xunhua's heart skipped a beat, and her tone was flat enough to scare her recently: "Well, there are people on duty and they probably won't come to inspect, and the timing of things being exposed will be greatly delayed."

Pan Xiaohong nodded: "Yes."

Bai Xunhua breathed a sigh of relief at his subconsciously accentuated tone, but then he couldn't bear it again.

When the two were talking, they had already left the study room, walked quickly along the narrow passage to the stairs.Pan Xiaohong leaned forward and glanced down, but it was very quiet.Bai Xunhua pulled the hem of his clothes, pointed to the window at the end of the passage and said, "I'll go and have a look, you guard here."

Needless to say, Pan Xiaohong immediately understood what she meant.Going out in the dark with both eyes is like a fly without a head. The height vision on the third floor is enough to see the nearby path clearly.

Bai Xunhua approached the window carefully, leaning against the edge of the window and looking out.It was already dark outside, and the ivy leaves blocked some sight, but none of this prevented Bai Xunhua from seeing the brightly lit main building clearly.

Ji Mansion old house.

She collected herself, took a closer look, and turned away from the window.

In less than half a minute, Pan Xiaohong waited anxiously.Seeing her come back, he walked down the stairs and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

Bai Xunhua said, "I know the way out."

She was surprisingly calm, as if everything had been arranged.Pan Xiaohong was influenced by her, and his rapid heartbeat eased a bit, jokingly said: "I have an idea, if you are accidentally caught, you take me as a hostage."

Bai Xunhua turned the surgical saw in his hand and said with a smile, "You should take me as a hostage."

While talking, the two had already reached the second floor, pushed open a half-closed secret door, passed through an office, and saw an upward staircase in front of them.Pan Xiaohong hurried up, followed by Bai Xunhua.

Stepping on the last flight of stairs, she was amazed by the sight in front of her—the entire second floor was empty except for the outer circle.

Bai Xunhua stepped onto the platform, and through the smooth glass floor, he could have a panoramic view of everything downstairs.

This place is no stranger to Bai Xunhua.She and Banyan have been here before.The first time I came to see Ji Xian, he was in the sterile room under his feet.Later, I came to visit Ji Bao several times, also in the sterile room under my feet.

The hospital bed was still in the middle, but it was empty.The instruments have moved angles, and it seems that new machines have been added.All changes cannot be concealed, and all details are unobstructed.

Standing here, looking down on the world like a god.

"This way, go down here." Seeing her hesitation, Pan Xiaohong quickly shouted softly, "It's okay, there is no one below."

Bai Xunhua was not worried about this, but was surprised by what Bai Jimo had promised Ji Xian so that he could stand here, a seat that even Ji Xian's cronies could not achieve.

Ji Xian's involvement made things more complicated.Bai Xunhua didn't want to think too much, and didn't have time to think too much.She followed Pan Xiaohong quickly to the first floor.The two hurried through the hall, but when they got to the door they found it couldn't be opened.

Pan Xiaohong said in a low voice, "The man on duty must have an access card in his hand."

Bai Xunhua said, "Okay, we'd better change clothes."

The on-duty researcher who was killed by Pan Xiaohong was lying on the ground, surrounded by bloodstains. It is not known whether it was the blood of the deceased or Pan Xiaohong's blood.

Seeing Bai Xunhua staring at the dead person on the ground, Pan Xiaohong couldn't help explaining: "I didn't want to kill her, but I couldn't help it...Actually, she is better than those people...I didn't expect her to die."

Bai Xunhua endured the pain and turned over the body that had lost its temperature.

The blond-haired, blue-eyed girl still had the horror of struggling before death on her face.It was Sophia who had met Bai Xunhua once.

"..."

Bai Xunhua exhaled lightly, and raised his hand to brush Sophia's eyes.

I don't know if the soul in a foreign country can travel across the ocean to return home.

Pan Xiaohong turned his face away, staring blankly at the electric shock device, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.Bai Xunhua took off Sophia's white coat, turned around and saw him like this, and quickly changed the subject: "Xiao Pan, let's leave as soon as it gets dark."

"Walk?"

Suddenly a familiar voice sounded, and the two of them were startled.

Deliberate footsteps came from the direction of the gate, and Bai Jimo's figure flashed around the corner, appearing in front of Bai Xunhua and Pan Xiaohong.Holding the gun, he asked with a smile on his face, "Where do you two want to go?"

Bai Xunhua took a step forward: "Just leave here."

Bai Jimo also took a step forward: "I'm afraid not."

Bai Xunhua smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter what you say. Of course, you can consider shooting."

Bai Jimo frowned and said nothing.

The two sides were separated by more than ten meters and confronted each other for 27 seconds.Bai Xunhua counted the time silently, feeling more and more anxious in his heart.She is not Bai Jimo, she can't waste time here.

"You just want my blood." Bai Xunhua gestured to the surgical saw in his hand, then raised his left hand.When the sharp saw blade touched the wrist, blood immediately overflowed, and the blood beads rolled and dripped to the ground.

"You!" Bai Jimo's eyes turned red.

Bai Xunhua looked calm: "Do you think I dare to die?"

Bai Jimo tugged at the collar of his shirt and growled irritably: "Are you forcing me? Don't you really think I can't do anything! Let me tell you, it's really not because I care about the relationship between siblings. I have hundreds of ways to make you die." Please die!"

Worried about the relationship between siblings?

Pan Xiaohong couldn't help but rolled his eyes, he understood what it means to have never seen such a brazen person.

"I told you, I told you!" Bai Jimo was obviously driven into a hurry, and said angrily, "I just want the mediocre happiness of ordinary human beings, why are you unwilling to fulfill your dear brother? Yes For you, this loss is completely negligible!"

Listening to his nonsense, Bai Xunhua's lips curled up slightly: "Let me go, this can be ignored by you at any time."

Bai Jimo shook his head, his tone extremely desperate: "No, no. Do you know how our father maintained enough food? Do you remember what I said?"

Seeing him threatening himself again, Bai Xunhua replied coldly: "So?"

Bai Jimo's hand dropped, with a weird smile on his face: "Do you know how lucky you are? No, you don't know, of course you don't know. Do you think your luck started when you met Ji Bao? No, You've been lucky, luckier than all your brothers and sisters."

Bai Xunhua was startled when he heard the words, and Pan Xiaohong was also stunned.

Bai Jimo laughed at himself: "Do you know what kind of life the chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep live in the farm? Do you know what they think about every day?"

"Of course you don't know, compared to the fact that you have never lived such a life." Bai Jimo narrowed his eyes, as if he could see his former self through the void, "Our father, that old thing called father in blood. That The old immortal thing, that monster, that devil! He treats children as food, as medicine! Do you know! Do you know!"

When the thin layer of veil was suddenly lifted by Bai Jimo, revealing the disgusting carrion underneath, Bai Xunhua was the only one who remained silent.She was lucky to have a mother who was in a trance like a frightened mouse all day long.

No one knows the grievances and grievances decades ago, but there is no doubt that this woman is smart and decisive.She may not have insight into all the truth, but for the sake of her daughter, she chose to be suspicious, and she chose to put all her eggs in one basket.Leaving that well-dressed man, hiding in poverty and fear for the rest of his life.

Everything is for my daughter.

Bai Xunhua pursed the corners of his lips tightly, looked at the crazy Bai Jimo, and persuaded: "Then you shouldn't make the same mistakes again. I'm lucky, aren't you lucky?"

"Lucky? Do you know what luck is?" Bai Jimo suddenly showed a strange expression, shook his head and said, "Guess why I'm lucky."

Before Bai Xunhua could answer, he laughed: "Because he always picks the best one first."

Pan Xiaohong shivered, and an indescribable strange feeling rose in his heart.He looked at Bai Jimo and felt that the one in front of him just looked like a human, but he didn't know what kind of monster it was.

Bai Xunhua felt more helpless in his heart: "He is dead..."

"I don't want to die if he's dead! I don't want to die!" Bai Jimo hissed, "I want to live! I want to accompany Ji Bao to chase the aurora, to black and white sand sea, to --------"

"You calm down!"

Looking at Bai Jimo, whose face was flushed with excitement.Bai Xunhua frowned, thinking of the empty hospital bed in the sterile room behind her, a bad thought came to her mind.

Is it difficult?

Bai Xunhua quickly collected himself.

Pan Xiaohong saw that there was something wrong with the two of them, so he tried to slow down his voice and asked Bai Jimo: "What can you do to let us go?"

Bai Jimo smiled sarcastically: "What are you, what's your business here."

Bai Xunhua immediately said: "There is nothing wrong with him here, let him go."

"No." Bai Jimo said without hesitation, "The reason for arresting him is to research ways to cure Ji Bao's disease."

Bai Xunhua frowned, Ji Bao was unconscious because of poisoning, so what if he dissected Pan Xiaohong?

Bai Jimo was clearly talking nonsense.

Bai Xunhua said: "Don't make trouble out of no reason. Before, you said to save Ji Bao and shake Shengmu Mandui."

Bai Jimo disdained: "Yeah, did you bring it back? You didn't, you never thought of Ji Bao. You forgot that Ji Bao went up and down for you, and tried everything for you at home and abroad. Look at Sophia, it's just for You, she will die here!"

The more Bai Jimo said, the more strange it became. Bai Xunhua was about to interrupt, but saw a small black figure rushing towards her behind her.

Ji Bao suddenly stopped, staring at Sophia on the ground, his thin face was full of panic.She staggered forward to both sides, threw herself on Sophia, and sobbed uncontrollably: "...uh... woo...sorry...sorry..."

Bai Xunhua was surprised and happy, happy and angry, turned his head and gave Bai Jimo a look.Bai Jimo had a happy smile on his face, cupped his hands like an old pedant, and said two words with a movement of his thin lips: Thank you.

Bai Xunhua ignored him and walked over to Ji Bao.

From the moment Ji Bao appeared, she knew that this was a big drama planned by Bai Jimo.

Sophia is on duty, Pan Xiaohong kills and escapes, confronts a deadlock, reveals his true feelings, and Ji Bao appears... This scene has been sung until now, and the dust has settled.

Bai Xunhua stood beside Ji Bao, not knowing how to redeem it.Once a gap is formed, even the best mason can't smooth it out.

Ji Bao carefully held Sophia in his arms, kissed her cold forehead, and said in a hoarse voice, "Jimo, help me book a ticket to Los Angeles tomorrow."

"Okay." Bai Jimo stepped forward, squatted in front of Ji Bao and said softly, "Little Baoer, it's cold on the ground, shall we let Sophia sleep on the bed?"

Bai Jimo's hypocrisy made Pan Xiaohong feel nauseous.He just couldn't figure out why everyone knew that this guy was a complete villain, but let him jump until now.

This fake face should have been torn off a long time ago!

Ji Bao didn't speak, but hugged Sophia tightly.After coming over for a while, she suddenly looked up at Bai Xunhua as if she had come to her senses.Just as Bai Xunhua was about to speak, he saw Ji Bao's gaze fall on his arm, and then he lowered his head to avoid it as if he was electrocuted.

Bai Xunhua sighed in his heart, and felt that his arms were as heavy as lead.

Obviously just wearing a white coat.

The air froze, Ji Bao gasped twice, and said indiscriminately, "Xunhua, why are you here? Where is Banyaner? Did that bastard run away again?"

Ji Bao hugged Sophia's body but never mentioned it, which made Bai Xunhua feel even more uneasy.This is a misunderstanding that is not a misunderstanding. There is no way to explain it, and there is no way to shirk it.Because death is the most intuitive and terrible injury, which cannot be changed, irreversible, and unforgivable.

"Captivity" is nothing compared to "death", even if it is a terrible injury.

"Ji..." Bai Xunhua was about to speak when he was interrupted by Bai Jimo.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Bai Jimo caressed Ji Bao's back, and said in a soft and steady voice, "Didn't the doctor say that you shouldn't get too emotional." He raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Xunhua.

Ji Bao responded blankly: "Well...I'm not excited."

Bai Xunhua frowned into Sichuan characters, she understood the meaning in Bai Jimo's eyes.Ji Bao's weak and trance state is not just a simple recovery from a serious illness.Perhaps what I just said about researching Pan Xiaohong's treatment of Ji Bao is not all nonsense.

Bai Xunhua bit his lip, and replied in a deep voice: "Ban Yan'er was taken away by Kong Yiyi, I'm going to rescue her."

"Ah?" Ji Bao was stunned for a moment, extremely anxious, "Quick, hurry up and save that guy."

"No!" Bai Jimo was so excited that he stood up abruptly, "Little Baoer, if she never comes again after she leaves, I... I... can't let her go. I can't let her go!"

Ji Bao was startled: "Jimo, what are you doing? Put down the gun."

Bai Xunhua looked at the pitch-black muzzle of the gun, and then at Bai Jimo, feeling a little dull in his heart.Pan Xiaohong, who was next to him, became anxious, and pulled Bai Xunhua behind him, and sneered at Bai Jimo: "What kind of man is he to point a gun at a girl!"

"Click", the bullet is loaded.

Ji Bao hurriedly put down Sophia and stood in front of Bai Jimo's gun.She looked at Bai Jimo without saying a word, and Bai Jimo sighed and slowly put down the gun: "If it weren't for you, this world would be meaningless."

Ji Bao's eyes were red, and he let out a choked sob.She turned around and looked at Bai Xunhua, sniffing: "Xunhua, you...you go find Banyaner."

Bai Xunhua smiled wryly in his heart, but couldn't stop being moved.She nodded, stepped forward to hug Ji Bao, and whispered forcefully in her ear: "Ji Bao, we are best friends. I will come back, you must wait for me to come back. If you have anything to say, wait me back."

Ji Bao blinked and nodded obediently: "Yes. Xunhua, I'll listen to you."

Bai Xunhua's nose soured.

Bai Jimo held Ji Bao's shoulders, and said to Bai Xunhua, "Sister, I prepared a car for you, it's at the west gate, you know it."

Bai Xunhua took a deep look at him and smiled: "Okay, I understand. Take care of Ji Bao and wait for me to come back."

After she finished speaking, she got up to leave, and Pan Xiaohong followed closely behind her.

I don't know if Bai Jimo has already arranged it, or he and Ji Xian have reached an agreement.The road was unimpeded. Pushing open the half-closed iron gate, the two saw an unremarkable white car.

After getting into the car and driving for a few miles, Pan Xiaohong finally took a deep breath and cursed angrily, "You motherfucker!"

After cursing, he fell back into the car seat, was startled a few seconds later, and turned to look at Bai Xunhua.Bai Xunhua said indifferently: "It's okay, he and I are half-brothers at most. Well, I want to scold him too."

"Hahaha." Pan Xiaohong laughed loudly, pouted his mouth, and couldn't help saying, "If Miss Ji knew earlier..."

Bai Xunhua replied: "It's useless."

Pan Xiaohong was surprised: "Why?"

Bai Xunhua said lightly: "If Ji Bao told me that Banyan murders people and set fires, I will not choose to believe it."

Pan Xiaohong didn't understand for a while, but instead said naturally: "We can show me the evidence, as long as there are clues, we will become suspicious."

The light from the street lamp fell, and swept across the windshield, illuminating the corners of Bai Xunhua's raised mouth: "I can choose not to see, or I can choose to doubt Ji Bao."

Only now did Pan Xiaohong come to his senses, and let out a long sigh: "Love makes people blind, and women always choose love first."

"Not necessarily." Bai Xunhua turned the steering wheel and began to analyze in detail in his mind.While chatting nonsense with Pan Xiaohong, I hope he will not think of the blonde girl, "Men also love first, but people are more affected by the mainstream consciousness of society."

Pan Xiaohong nodded: "That's true. Think about those kings who have lost their country. What kind of beacon fire plays with the princes, what is sending lychees from thousands of miles away. Sigh, it's so troublesome. I suddenly feel that it's good to be a single dog, at least I have a brain."

Bai Xunhua smiled without saying a word, thinking of Bai Jimo.

Thinking of his thank you, the smile on the corner of Bai Xunhua's mouth gradually froze.

Lianai makes people lose their minds?

not necessarily.

Just look at Bai Jimo.Perhaps because he is born cunning, cruel, and omnipotent, love does not affect his IQ anyway.

Can Bai Xunhua not go back?

No.

For Ji Bao, Bai Xunhua couldn't let him die.

Of course, this was by no means Bai Jimo's only purpose.He played enough drama in front of Ji Bao, causing Bai Xunhua to owe a lot of debts both emotionally and rationally.Even if he turns against Bai Xunhua in the future, Bai Jimo is not afraid that it will be difficult for Ji Bao.

After all, Bai Xunhua is no longer a pure and flawless white lotus.There is a stain, but it can't be wiped clean.

Not only that, but he and Kong Yuyi worked hand in hand, and sold him off.And Bai Xunhua still had to go, and by going there, he was helping him erase his stains.

Thinking of this, Bai Xunhua sighed softly: "He is the only winner in this mess up to now."
