I caught the murderer
Chapter 40
In fact, Pei Yuzhou didn't go to any dangerous places, he just went to the cemetery in City B, and then returned home on the way.
his own home.
The renovated commercial housing looked expensive and exquisite. Because of the hiring of a housekeeper, even though Pei Yuzhou hadn't been back for a month, the room was still spotless and full of warmth.
But Pei Yuzhou still felt that this house was not as good as that of Shen Zheng's house: it was too big and too spacious, so it looked unpopular.
After confirming the safety of the home, Pei Yuzhou used a series of complicated passwords to open the safe in the study.
There was nothing special in the safe, just a photo album and a stack of CDs.
There is also a small photo frame above the album. A woman in a hospital gown is holding a black-haired, blue-eyed baby in her arms with a gentle smile on her face. The man standing next to her has deep features and a scar on his face. The long scar looks rather sinister.
Pei Yuzhou lightly brushed the woman's face on the photo with his hand, then he flipped the photo frame over and began to rummage through the CDs.
These are all his family memories, which naturally include the various movies that Pei's mother has acted in. Although they are no longer the original version, they are still a way for Pei Yuzhou to understand his mother.
Drama is like life, and life is like drama, actors always put their own feelings into their performances, and Mother Pei is no exception.
Pei Yuzhou took the CD with the words "Jiangshan Liyuan" on it and returned to the living room. He closed all the curtains and let himself immerse himself in his mother's video in the darkness.
December's babbling vocals opened the curtain of the movie. Pei Yuzhou looked at the man on the screen who flung his sleeves and flirted with all kinds of flair, and couldn't match him with Jiang Heng.
This was originally a movie with December as the protagonist, but Pei's mother's acting skills were too strong back then. She played a brave and resourceful rich lady who dared to love, hate, and plan so well. After the hero's December limelight.
When seeing the face very similar to himself appearing on the big screen in a foreign dress, Pei Yuzhou inevitably had an illusion again—as if he had really returned to that era and experienced his mother's joy in the play. Angry and sad.
"December, let me take you away." Du Mingzhu's charming voice reached Pei Yuzhou's ears, "I know you don't want to be trapped on this small stage."
At that time, December and Du Mingzhu had already fallen in love, but the pressure from family and secular life made it difficult for the lovers to get married.
Du Mingzhu's eyes were full of love, and she put her hands on December's shoulders: "Let's go, where can't we go?"
Twelfth Yue's eyebrow-drawing hand paused: "In troubled times, where can you and I, two pieces of duckweed, go?"
The two reflected in the mirror were intimate yet distant. It was not the first time Pei Yuzhou watched this movie, nor was it the first time he felt that this movie was not just a movie.
"Liyuan Jiangshan" was not the last work of Pei's mother, but Pei Yuzhou had never seen such loving eyes from Pei's mother in other films.
Sentimental and fiery, those are the eyes of first love.
His old man also complained intentionally or unintentionally that he was not the first to capture the beauty's heart. Pei Yuzhou stared at the image on the big screen in a daze. Could it be that his mother really fell in love with "December" back then?
Perhaps the only thing that made him guess this way was this scene: December covered with heavy makeup, and Du Mingzhu who was pretty and decisive. Only when the two of them were reflected in the mirror did Pei Yuzhou feel that the two were in love. .
It's just that Pei's mother has passed away, and the famous "December" has long since disappeared. No matter how curious Pei Yuzhou is, he can only guess everything about that year through the cold screen.
This time "Jiangshan Liyuan" was remade, a Liu Zhenfeng who claimed to be his mother's old friend has appeared, and I don't know how many so-called "old friends" will appear next.
A few more will be traps set by "he".
Pei Yuzhou looked at Du Mingzhu, who was fiddling with guns alone in the boudoir, and tapped the back of his hand. After all, the other party always believed that what Pei's mother left behind was on him, the only person who inherited the blood of the Pei family. Otherwise, how could "he" only Want to catch him instead of kill him?
Controlling him or even pulling him into the gang, I'm afraid this is the result the other party wants most, right?
If the other party knew that half of those things were hidden by his old man in a place that even he didn't know, would "he" be so angry that he vomited blood?
Pei Yuzhou made a wicked smile. Du Mingzhu in the movie also hid the pistol she finally got at this time, and the curved corners of their mouths were exactly the same.
Even if they are temporarily at a disadvantage, it is not certain who will win.
*
Pei Yuzhou felt dizzy.
He found himself lying on a soft wool rug, and the rhythmic rocking of the floor beneath him made him want to retch all the more.
Pei Yuzhou looked at the pattern on the carpet, and the next second he understood where he was now.
It was the luxury liner where celebrities gathered, and a mysterious masked dance made him come into contact with "him" for the first time.
At this time, Pei Yuzhou was feeling unwell because he had just vomited the glass of red wine with spices. Even if he found out in time, the ecstasy still made him feel very uncomfortable.
His body seemed to be naturally more sensitive to the drug.
Pei Yuzhou was clearly aware that he was in a dream, but he seemed to be in a nightmare and couldn't wake up at all.
He could only look at the self in his memory standing up against the wall, forcing a natural expression.
At this moment, an elegant and magnetic male voice suddenly came from behind him: "The curvature of your jaw is very similar to that of an old friend of mine."
Pei Yuzhou looked back, and saw a man wearing a silver mask was looking at him unscrupulously, with full curiosity in his eyes: "It's a pity that you are too young to have any charm from her."
Although the man seemed to be only 40 years old, according to Pei Yuzhou's eyesight, he could tell that the man was at least [-] years old.
At this age... Pei Yuzhou's heart suddenly tensed up.
Pei Yuzhou nodded slightly at the other party, as if he didn't take the other party's rude words to heart: "You also remember the curve of your chin so clearly, it must be an old friend who is very important to you."
"It's very important. After all, she stole a lot of things from me, and I have been looking for them for more than ten years." The man shook the red wine glass in his hand, "Life is short, how many decades can a person have?"
Pei Yuzhou chuckled, "Oh? I've been looking for more than ten years? Could it be that your old friend stole your heart?"
Apart from his pale face, no one could tell that Pei Yuzhou was the young man who was curled up on the ground because of the discomfort just now.
"This plot is too clichéd, I don't like it," the man shook his head, "She stole something more important."
"Things related to my family and life."
"So serious?" Pei Yuzhou was surprised, "Then have you found that old friend?"
"I know where she is, but she is too far away from me, I can't do anything to her at all," the man took a sip of red wine, and then smiled happily, "Fortunately, she is dead, and it's not in vain for what I have done all these years effort."
Pei Yuzhou, whose consciousness was floating in mid-air, had already seen the teasing and provocation in the man's eyes, but the Pei Yuzhou who was really in this memory and needed to be tempered didn't notice anything.
He clenched his fists and was successfully provoked by the man.
The man sneered: "You are really like your rude father."
"I don't know why Pei Yun fell in love with such a man," the man read out Pei's mother's name in an extremely familiar tone, "A simple-minded reckless man, no wonder he would do such a low-level job as a mercenary .”
Pei Yuzhou faded the smile on his face: "Do you know who I am?"
"Obviously," the man smiled, "Pei Yuzhou? It sounds like Pei Yun's naming style."
The ship was still rocking gently with the waves, and seeing Pei Yuzhou's increasingly pale face, the man laughed happily: "Look, you are still young, not to mention comparing with your mother, even your father is better than you." You are much stronger."
"Why do you want to fight me?"
Pei Yuzhou looked straight into the man's eyes without flinching: "With what my mother left me."
The man's laughter stopped abruptly. Although the man was wearing a mask covering most of his face, Pei Yuzhou could still sense the change in his face: "Those things are in your hands?"
Instead of customers, Pei Yuzhou's face did not show any complacency: "Otherwise, what do you think is the reason for my return to China?"
"Presumably you also know that only the Pei family can take out the things that the Pei family has deposited in the bank of country R, and I happen to be the last blood of the Pei family."
He took a step forward and approached the man: "Of course, you can also choose to kill me or imprison me, but you must have experienced the integrity of the Pei family from my mother, right?"
The man lowered his voice: "Are you threatening me? Don't think that he can protect you by relying on Zhao Qiming's command."
"At least I'm a member of the Police Department of City B, and I'm still on special missions. No matter how powerful you are behind you, I don't think you dare to directly conflict with the state apparatus."
Pei Yuzhou touched the watch on his hand: "You should know that although my action this time has nothing to do with you, it has already been recorded on it."
Facing Pei Yuzhou's pressing step by step, the man suddenly relaxed: "Having said so much, you actually don't have those things in your hand, right?"
"If there is, you can just hand over those things directly to the higher-ups, why bother talking to me here?"
"Because I want to find out who is one of the forces behind you." Facing the man's rhetorical question, Pei Yuzhou calmly said, "Otherwise, what if I give something to the wrong person?"
As soon as the words fell, Pei Yuzhou quickly reached out to take off the man's mask. He had been looking for him for so long, and it would be a pity if he still couldn't see his true face.
However, the man's skills were also very agile. He dodged Pei Yuzhou's hand, and took advantage of the situation to grab Pei Yuzhou's both hands sideways.
"I still have something to do today, so I won't play with you for now. I think you have some criminal talents in your bones. Maybe joining us is a better choice for you. After all, your mother also..."
Before the man finished speaking, the fierce struggle of his subordinates made him lose his patience.
"What? What's the matter?" The man sneered, and he slashed at the back of Pei Yuzhou's neck with a knife, "For Pei Yun's sake, I can't move you."
"But if you continue to fight against me, you will make everyone unhappy."
"I promise."
*
The man's nightmarish words woke Pei Yuzhou up from his sleep. There was no cruise ship or mask. He was still leaning on the sofa at home, and the movie on the screen had already finished playing. The whole room was empty of nothing but darkness.
That dream was too real, he fainted in the darkness, and woke up in the darkness again, the seemingly doomed ending made him a little powerless.
At this moment, Pei Yuzhou felt an unprecedented killing intent in his heart.
Why be obsessed with catching that person, he can kill the other person with everything he has learned.
Whether you do it yourself, hire mercenaries or killers, is it really that difficult to let "him" die?
Obviously there are many shortcuts to get revenge without suffering, but he chose the most stupid one.
A thin layer of cold sweat broke out on Pei Yuzhou's body, and his hands trembled involuntarily.
Maybe it is true what "he" said, maybe he is more suitable for crime by nature.
"Click."
The door of Pei Yuzhou's room was suddenly opened, and the bright lights in the corridor spilled in together with the voice of the person at the door, indiscriminately dispelling the seemingly deep-rooted darkness.
"You are indeed here." Seeing the blurred figure on the sofa, Shen Zheng, who was covered in chills, finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, I guessed correctly."
Pei Yuzhou stared blankly at the figure against the light at the door, and suddenly reached out his hand foolishly to grab it.
You see, that's light.
his light.
The author has something to say: we will talk about the reason for going to the cemetery later.
It's not that Zhou Zhou is weak, it's just that he was still young and hadn't grown up at that time.
It revealed a little entanglement between Zhou Zhou and "him". When I wrote this chapter, I was always afraid that my writing skills were not enough, and I hope I didn't embarrass the little angel.
his own home.
The renovated commercial housing looked expensive and exquisite. Because of the hiring of a housekeeper, even though Pei Yuzhou hadn't been back for a month, the room was still spotless and full of warmth.
But Pei Yuzhou still felt that this house was not as good as that of Shen Zheng's house: it was too big and too spacious, so it looked unpopular.
