The long covered bridge connects the two buildings, the front is the work area, and the back is the dormitory. Two sentry posts and two monitoring gates stand quietly like sphinxes.The two walked to the east end of the covered bridge one after the other, a place known as "Altair".

"That...Ye Mo, store your things first." Yi Shuihan reminded softly.

Ye Mo sighed, took out the phone from his pocket, turned it off and put it in his locker.The two raised their feet again, passed the monitoring door, and walked towards "Vega".

The overly depressing atmosphere made Yi Shuihan speak with difficulty, "Ye Mo, let's go to the infirmary first, and go to eat after we're done, shall we?"

Ye Mo stopped, looked at him sadly, lowered his head, and followed him downstairs.When the doctor was cleaning the wound with disinfectant, Ye Mo had to close his eyes, and Yi Shuihan beside him also closed his eyes.He didn't want to look directly at the wound.The light red liquid trickled down and dripped into the plastic bucket marked "Medical Waste". Yi Shuihan took a deep breath, thinking what would happen if it was him.He was afraid of those big shots.

"Okay, change the dressing tomorrow." The doctor said.

"Thank you, thank you. Let's go then."

The two walked out of the infirmary and walked into the elevator. Yi Shuihan pressed "8".There are 15 floors in total, and the canteen is right in the middle.

[I don't eat.I go back to the dormitory. 】Ye Mo pressed "15".

"Ah... so what can I do? It's not good to not eat, is it?"

[Team leader, I really can't eat, you go and eat.I'll go back and pack up, and I'll move to your place later. 】

"Oh...then—be careful yourself."

This dinner, Yi Shuihan ate without taste, thinking of the "24-hour surveillance" order, he was restless.On the one hand, he resented the boss's domineering, on the other hand, he was worried that Ye Mo would do something against discipline in the dormitory, which would end badly for him.The purpose of Director Xu supporting him as the team leader is to train newcomers.Once I got acquainted with him and started to bully him, I was transferred to another group.His only advantage is his strong skills. It is really embarrassing for him to manage people, let alone surveillance?

Yi Shuihan returned to the 15th floor with an awkward mood.He lives in 1510, at the end of the corridor, when passing 1505, he had to stop.He raised his hand and knocked on the door. After waiting for a while, "One-Eyed Dragon" Ye Mo opened the door from the inside, dragging two boxes in his hand.

"Let me get you something."

Ye Mo moved out of the way, Yi Shuihan went in and dragged another yellow box, and the two came to 1510 together.Ye Mo didn't have many things, so he finished moving them in two rounds.

"You sit down first, I'll contact the logistics staff, and I'll send you a bed later."

Ye Mo nodded, and leaned against the dining table in frustration, propping his head with his hands, as if he didn't want to talk to him.Yi Shuihan waited, but couldn't think of anything to say, so he retreated to the bedroom for a lunch break.

Yi Shuihan looked at the LED light on the bedside, it was 2:12 in the morning.There was the sound of tossing and turning from outside, and Yi Shuihan also turned over following the rhythm.He thought of the five roommates in the high school dormitory who took pleasure in bullying him. He still couldn't understand why they were so cruel, but he didn't know it.I don't say they are bad people, and they are friendly to other students, but they always like to play "pranks" with him.Of course, pranks are their talk.If you resist, they will label you "can't joke".He seemed to exude a "come and bully me" smell, and it didn't take long for the recruits to dare to make fun of him.What a frustrating experience!

As a leader, you can't show "narrow-mindedness," Director Xu advised him.

But his mind is getting smaller and smaller, so small that he can only accommodate two people: his father and himself.Everyone else, including his mother, is unstable.You don't know when they explode.Only loneliness, indifference, and an attitude of refusal can avoid it.

After many years of hard work, I finally got a small world, but suddenly a person broke in.While sympathizing with the other party, he felt that his boundaries had been violated again.

He turned over again, wondering what to do tomorrow?

Upon waking up, Yi Shuihan pushed open the door and saw a figure from behind.A second later, he remembered what happened yesterday.

"Morning!"

Ye Mo stood in front of the easel, and when he heard the voice, he turned his head and nodded at him as a greeting.

Yi Shuihan glanced at the pencil in the opponent's hand.Ye Mo stroked the pencil with his fingers, as if he wanted to draw but didn't dare.Yi Shuihan politely said habitually, "You can paint. Anyway, I'm free." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head, regretting it, as he always does, actively inviting the other party to invade his territory.Mouth!He slapped himself in the heart, but when he looked up and saw Ye Mo bowing his hands to thank him with a faint smile on his lips, he felt a little moved in his heart.Yi Shuihan smiled sheepishly, scratched his head, and walked into the bathroom.

After finishing, he opened the bathroom door and said, "Let's go eat together. You didn't eat last night, it's not good for your health."

2B pencil traces the composition of an apple on the sketch paper.

"Don't forget to see a doctor after dinner."

The pencil quickly slid across the paper, and the gray side of the shadow came out.The two-dimensional apple has a three-dimensional effect.

"Hey, have you learned it?"

[learned.And you? 】

"I learned it when I was a child. Now my hands are born again."

[Just keep drawing. 】

"Yeah, yeah, persistence is the most important thing. Um... let's go to dinner?"

Ye Mo lowered his head and thought for a while, then wrote, 【Leader, thank you for caring about me so much.I know that in this situation, no one wants to talk to me, only you have the best heart, moving to live with you will cause you trouble, thank you! 】

"Oh...that...it's nothing...hehe..." Being praised is a rare thing for Yi Shuihan, he felt at a loss and wrung his hands, not knowing how to answer.

[Don't worry, I won't commit suicide because of my overthinking, and I won't commit crimes against the wind and make things difficult for you and the director.I will stay in the dormitory honestly, eating, exercising, and seeing a doctor.You just go to work and don't worry about me. 】

"Oh... don't worry, don't worry, just... it's not good to not eat, right? Hehe..."

Ye Mo sighed helplessly, put down the pencil, and went out with him.After eating, Yi Shuihan sent him to the infirmary. After finishing, Ye Mo asked him with his eyes, is this okay?Yi Shuihan scratched his head awkwardly, and said, "Then... you go back. Think about it! I'll come back at noon to accompany you...to have dinner with you."

Two days later it was the weekend, Yi Shuihan wrote a note and went out with another subordinate named Ling Fan.It is the rule of the base to pair them in pairs, which is convenient for reporting and exposing.Before leaving, he asked Ye Mo what he wanted, and Ye Mo said no.Ye Mo's mood has always been good, neither sad nor happy, and he doesn't care about his colleagues' pointers.The whole day is either sweating profusely in the gym or standing in a daze in front of the easel.Either an apple or a beagle on white sketch paper.

Yi Shuihan and Ling Fan walked from the farmland to the hillside, staring at the snow-capped mountains in the distance in a daze, imagining the distant desert where they are not allowed to set foot.Then I looked up the watch to see that the time was almost up, then walked down the hillside and walked along the main street in the direction of "Big Bowl of Vegetables".It's nothing more than eating.These boring people have nothing to do in this boring town.

"Team leader, the things here are too bad, where can I buy nicer sheets?" Ling Fan asked.

"Online shopping!" Yi Shuihan replied weakly, "You send the link to Sister Wu, she is in charge of collective purchasing."

"Hey, the control is too strict. I won't let you buy anything!"

"Do you understand secrecy? We are a key secrecy unit."

"Oh, I really regret it. It would have been nice if I had gone to a private company!"

"Stop, Ling Fan, you can't say this in front of the leader." Yi Shuihan suddenly smiled strangely, "It's too late. You are a soldier now, and our slogan is to give and not to take, hehe... It's easy to come in It's hard to get out, hehe."

"Excuse me, do you two know Ye Mo?" Suddenly an uncle blocked the way and asked with a smile.

The two looked at each other, and Ling Fan said quickly, "Leader, I'll order food first!" Sa Yazi ran away.

Yi Shuihan smiled awkwardly, and hummed to the uncle as an answer.

"Oh, please allow me to introduce first, my name is Qin Jiangwei, and I am the younger brother of your Captain Qin. What is your surname?"

"Oh... that... my surname is Yi, easy Yi."

"Oh, it's Team Leader Yi, I'm sorry, I just want to inquire about Ye Mo's recent situation. Ask him..."

"He's fine."

"Did my brother give him any orders?"

"Ah... this..." Yi Shuihan turned his head in embarrassment, he didn't want to answer but couldn't refuse.

"Oh, I see," Qin Jiangwei nodded immediately, "So he did give the order." After a moment of silence, Qin Jiangwei smiled again, "Is he okay? I mean, except for not allowing him to Going out, is there anything else?"

"Hmm..." Yi Shuihan guessed that this person was the "Serena" Qin Dui was talking about, so he delayed for a while, and said in a low voice, "Qin Dui hit him in the face with the butt of a gun... "Qin Jiangwei's complexion suddenly changed.Yi Shuihan was a little startled, and he quickly added, "But he's not disfigured, and his eyes are fine, don't worry."

"It's okay, it's okay, you say, you say." Qin Jiangwei said calmly.

"Temporary suspension. But it should be temporary."

"Oh...suspended! Then...is he okay? I mean, is there any mental fluctuation?"

"It's okay, I can eat and sleep. I usually draw and do exercises, it's okay."

"Oh, that's good." Qin Jiangwei lowered his head and thought for a while, and said to himself, "He is stronger and should be able to hold on. Oh, yes," Qin Jiangwei raised his head and stared at Yi Shui eagerly Han said, "Please tell him secretly, tell him not to be discouraged, I will definitely find a way to get him out. Please tell him, okay?" Qin Jiangwei grabbed the opponent's hand with both hands, making Yi Shuihan Very uncomfortable.He hurriedly said yes, tried his best to pull out his hand, trying to walk around this person quickly.But Qin Jiangwei grabbed his hand again and told him, "Tell him, there was a little misunderstanding between me and my second brother, and I'm sorry for hurting him."

"Okay, I'll let you know. I'm sorry, I have to go, I have to go."

Yi Shuihan got rid of that sticky big hand and walked towards the restaurant.

After eating, you can play again, and you can return to the team at five o'clock.Ling Fan wanted to go to the video room to watch porn, it seemed unreasonable not to meet the physical needs of his colleagues, but thinking of Ye Mo, Yi Shuihan spent seconds like years in the dim video room.

4:23, finally finished watching.Yi Shui Hanfei also ran into the base, sold his leave at the front desk, rushed into the elevator, and returned to 1510.Pushing open the door, Ye Mo sat in front of the easel again in a daze.

"Uh, that...Ye Mo... Someone told me to send a message, saying that I will definitely find a way to get you out, so don't be discouraged."

Ye Mo turned his head suspiciously, as if asking "Who?"

"A man in his 50s, oh, he said his name is Qin Jiangwei, the younger brother of Team Qin."

[He hasn't left yet? 】

"Ah—you know him...? Well, he stopped me on the road and asked me about you and told me to tell you this. And said he was sorry for bothering you."

Ye Mo hesitated for a moment and asked, 【Is he okay? 】

"Him? What do you mean? What do you want to ask?"

【I mean, does he seem to be in a good state of mind? 】

"Oh, this one, it should be okay." Yi Shuihan couldn't grasp the point of Ye Mo's words.There are no missing arms or legs, so they should meet good standards.As for what was on his mind, how could he know.

[Team leader, can I trouble you to repeat what he said?I want to know the details. 】

"Okay." Yi Shuihan repeated the conversation.While he was talking, he looked at Ye Mo's face, Ye Mo turned his head to look at the window, with a blank expression, as if he didn't listen.Until he finished recounting, the person involved did not respond, which made the onlookers quite boring.Yi Shuihan coughed dryly, got up and prepared to go back to the bedroom.Suddenly, like a snow mountain collapsing and a river of tears gushing out, Ye Mo hugged the shaking triangular easel tightly, as if hugging the last straw.Yi Shuihan half stood up and had to sit back.He listened quietly, listening to the humiliating, painful, and helpless crying, as if it also contained the sadness that he could not cry out in his heart for many years.
