Natural enemies
Chapter 33
Tang Ji's residence is a duplex apartment with two floors, spacious and bright.Especially the living room, it is enough to hold a small party.However, he obviously planned to live alone in this house, so there were not enough bedrooms.So it's allotted...
Gu Yi stood in the master bedroom expressionlessly, looking at the large bed.The bed is big enough, not to mention two people, even three people can sleep there.But the problem is - there is a witcher next to him, how can he sleep!
Undead creatures, from another perspective, are no longer living creatures.When they are awake, they look like ordinary creatures, but as long as they close their eyes and fall asleep, without breathing or heartbeat, they are just dead bodies.From this point of view, it is true that sleep is the brother of death.
Of course, the vampires are also undead creatures. For them, heartbeat and breathing are unnecessary, but most of the vampires are transformed from the first embrace of human beings, so they still maintain the habits of being human.But after falling asleep, the brain rests, and the heart and respiratory system no longer work consciously.And to a witcher, whether the person lying next to him is breathing or not is as easy to tell as day and night.
Outside the door, Li Tianyi had a sour fight with Tang Ji, and finally calmed down.The door slammed lightly, Tang Ji walked in, and closed the door behind his back.
"Mr. Tang—" Gu Yi turned his head to look at him, "Is this considered overtime?" He just wanted to see how Tang Ji could fool him!
"Ah—it's double today." Tang Ji didn't change his face, but walked over and put his hand on Gu Yi's shoulder, "This bed is quite spacious, so I can sleep for a few days."
"How many days" do you need to sleep?
Gu Yi was silent for a while, and asked, "Mr. Tang, how many days am I going to sleep here?"
"It should not be a few days." Tang Ji rubbed his chin, "Speaking of which, I really want to thank you tonight for providing the key clues."
Gu Yi was silent for a while before asking: "That's why Mr. Tang let me live here?"
Tang Ji sat down on the bed and stared at him: "Aren't you afraid? Daniel peed in fright, and Li Tianyi was also very scared, but he didn't want to lose face and just held on. What about you? Are you not afraid?"
"Daniel is scared like that because he inhaled hallucinogens?" Speaking of this, Gu Yi felt a little guilty. He really wanted to use Daniel to attract Tang Ji's attention, but he really didn't expect to scare Daniel into a panic. In that way, he thought that these people who came out to mess around were all courageous.
"Hallucinogens—hehe, that's right." Tang Ji smiled meaningfully, "But Li Tianyi is also scared."
"Because that person was after Li Shao from the very beginning." Gu Yi shook his head, "I am a small person, I have no money, and I have never seen his face. What is there to be afraid of?"
Tang Ji smiled again: "You think so? But for some people, they would rather kill by mistake than let it go. Besides, you, Daniel and Li Tianyi were together at the time. If Daniel saw him, you would also be implicated. of."
Gu Yi thought for a while: "I don't think what you said, Mr. Tang, is entirely correct. Killing someone to silence him is also worthwhile. If this person is lurking beside us, for example, he is disguised as Mr. Zhang, then I can see his face, It is tantamount to destroying his hiding plan. Before more people find out, he must kill me, because then he can continue to hide. But if I don’t know him at all, let alone his whereabouts, Does it make sense for him to kill me? Especially now that his whereabouts in the bar have been exposed, including the characteristics of his eyes, but as long as he leaves the bar, what use is it for me to know? If he wants to come It would be easier to kill me and leave far away. In fact, Daniel is the same, sometimes Li Shao—does he think too much.” Li Tianyi never thinks too much when he should think too much, and when he shouldn’t think too much, His head was spinning upside down.If it wasn't for his meddling, he wouldn't have to face Tang Ji at close range now.
Tang Ji obviously understood what he meant, and laughed: "It's rare for you to talk so much. Indeed, Young Master Li, his idea is quite...but even if ordinary people can understand this truth, it is difficult to do it like that. Are you so calm?"
As he spoke, he stared at Gu Yi with a hint of inquiry in his eyes: "For example, you never asked me a word, how did you know Interpol? Or, what exactly do I do..."
That's because Wu Peng and Du Quan are not Interpol at all.Gu Yi thought lightly.But in some ways, they are still very similar to Interpol.
"Mr. Tang, it's not easy for me to find a suitable job..." Gu Yi lowered his head slightly, avoiding Tang Ji's gaze, "Otherwise, I wouldn't accompany you to work overtime tonight. "
The word "overtime" was a bit long, Tang Ji heheed twice: "Okay, I admit, I'm not here to discuss business tonight. Uh--in fact, I'm just here to inquire about news... Me, I'm nothing Interpol, but I've known them before, so—"
"Fengyu Company, are you going to keep opening it? You won't be closing in a few days, right?" Gu Yi interrupted him, or else he didn't know how many irrelevant things he wanted to say later, and he wanted to poison himself ears.
"This is to be opened. After all, I have to eat too." Although Tang Ji was interrupted, he didn't mean to be unhappy at all, and replied with a smile, "Now you can rest assured to work in the company?"
"Yes, that way I can feel at ease. I also hope to live in peace and stability." Gu Yi looked at him with a calm face.
"Live peacefully..." Tang Ji rubbed his chin again, "Yes, who doesn't want to live peacefully. But there are always some people who stir up trouble..."
Gu Yi pondered for a while: "This——I can only say that there must be a tall man supporting the sky falling."
Tang Ji burst out laughing: "This doesn't sound like what you would say." He looked Gu Yi up and down, and said meaningfully, "Besides, you are not short..."
Gu Yi was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Mr. Tang, if given a choice, no one wants to be tall."
"Really?" Tang Ji raised his eyebrows, got up and went to the corner of the bedroom to bring out a bottle of wine, "Speaking of which, we have never had a good talk. Come, have a drink, and tell me about your family?"
As he spoke, he filled the glass with red wine and handed it directly to Gu Yi: "Sit down. Let's chat."
The wine in the glass was bright red, and Gu Yi stared at it for a moment before taking it: "Actually, there is nothing to say...my family—Mr. gone."
Tang Ji shook his wine glass lightly: "How long have you been in Shanghai?"
"Eight years." Gu Yi quickly calculated in his heart, "I heard that there are many opportunities in big cities, and there are fellow villagers here, so I defected here."
"What about my hometown?"
"A few years ago I went to Guangdong again." Gu Yi replied flatly, "He met a girlfriend on the Internet and left. I heard that he got married last year, and he should be living a pretty good life now."
"I heard?" Tang Ji raised his eyebrows, "You have not been in touch now?"
"Too far away and less connection."
"It sounds like you don't have many friends?" Tang Ji propped his chin with one hand, and asked with a half-smile, "I've stayed in Shanghai for eight years, but haven't made many friends?"
Gu Yi really wanted to ask him: How did you come to this conclusion?Just because he lost contact with a fellow villager?Where is the logic in this?Unfortunately, although this conclusion was completely illogical, it was surprisingly correct, so he could only acquiesce.
However, Tang Ji did not intend to stop the topic here, and continued to ask: "Why?"
Didn't make friends, do you still need to say one, two, three?Gu Yi felt a little helpless: "It's because I'm a little withdrawn..."
"It doesn't look like it at all." Tang Ji was still smiling, "I think you have a good personality and outstanding talents, so many people should like you."
Gu Yi only felt a sudden pain in his heart.This sentence sounds so familiar, it seems that someone said it many years ago.But he quickly suppressed this memory: "Mr. Tang is too generous, I'm just an ordinary person."
"Ordinary people?" Tang Ji laughed, "Then you are too modest." He looked excited, "Seriously, with your talent, how come you don't have a girlfriend yet?"
This is really which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.Just as Gu Yi pressed down the pain in his heart, he felt another arrow hit his knee. Although the target of this arrow was a bit crooked, the damage was not small: "Mr. It’s in the basement. There’s only one good face, and it’s nothing.” Maybe if it wasn’t for this face, he would be living a completely different life now.It's a pity that this face can't be changed now, unless he is willing to change his blood of Nofiler.
Tang Ji chuckled twice, not realizing that what he was talking about was a very annoying topic: "You can't say that. Good looks, this is also an advantage, and it is born." He said, and touched Touching his face, "Sometimes, it actually works quite well."
How narcissistic this man is.Gu Yi's face was expressionless, and he couldn't help scolding his mother in his heart: "For Mr. Tang, this is the icing on the cake." So what matters is not your face at all, but your wealth.
Tang Ji winked at him: "You mean if I have no money, no one will look at my face? I don't think so..."
"Isn't it—" Gu Yi couldn't help it anymore, "I think Young Master Zhang won't care about Mr. Tang's money."
"Cough!" Tang Ji coughed hard, raised his wine glass to cover the corner of his twitching mouth, "don't talk about this. How are your parents now?"
Gu Yi hit the third arrow of today.He had to pause for a while before he could answer: "It's not bad. We all live in our hometown."
"Go back to see them once a year?" Tang Ji said casually, "It's far enough away, isn't it hard to go back and forth?"
He raised the wine glass in front of his face and shook it slightly, as if he was looking at the liquid in the glass, but Gu Yi found that the rhythm of his shaking was very steady, which reminded him suddenly of that conversation in Fengyu Company.When the words came to his lips, he swallowed suddenly, and Gu Yi abruptly changed his sentence: "I haven't been home for many years."
"Oh?" Tang Ji raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you always miss home and send money back from time to time? Why—you don't go home during the Chinese New Year?"
A witcher usually needs to have an excellent memory.Gu Yi thought indifferently, the last time he just said that Haitian's salary needs to be sent home, so he can only live in the basement, obviously Tang Ji remembered it, and he is still waiting for him here.
The real Gu Yi’s hometown is thousands of miles away, it’s just a remote small town, Tang Ji can’t go there to check if he goes home every year, but if he wants to check, he can find out if Gu Yi leaves every year Over the magic capital.
Sure enough, Tang Ji would never do meaningless things.Gu Yi felt that he should be thankful that Haitian did not have the habit of leaving a copy of his ID card, otherwise Tang Ji would only need to check the ID card he used before...
"Huh?" Tang Ji was still waiting for his answer.There was a little smile in his eyes, and the wine glass was reflected in his pupils, as if they were dyed blood red.
Gu Yi suddenly felt that this smile was very dazzling: "My relationship with my family is not very good."
"Ah? Why?" Tang Ji raised his eyebrows again, "Blood is thicker than water. How can a family have an overnight feud? You keep sending money home, why haven't you returned for several years?"
He spoke one sentence after another, as if a hunter was approaching his prey step by step.Gu Yi looked at him for a while, then lowered his eyes: "My family doesn't want to see me."
"Really?" Tang Ji raised his eyebrows even higher, "How could he not want to see such a good son? What's wrong?"
Such a conversation is interesting?Gu Yi suddenly felt bored.There are always such endless temptations, and there is a deep meaning hidden in every sentence.Back then he was too naive to hear it, but now—even if he wants to be an ordinary person again, he doesn't want to be patient anymore. Maybe this is an opportunity, if it can't dispel Tang Ji's suspicion, at least it can disgust him.
"I'm afraid that if Mr. Tang finds out, I won't be able to keep my job."
"How could your relationship with your family interfere with your work?" Tang Ji looked curious.
"Actually, my family hates me because—" Gu Yi paused, raised his eyes and looked straight at Tang Ji, "Because I like men."
Gu Yi stood in the master bedroom expressionlessly, looking at the large bed.The bed is big enough, not to mention two people, even three people can sleep there.But the problem is - there is a witcher next to him, how can he sleep!
Undead creatures, from another perspective, are no longer living creatures.When they are awake, they look like ordinary creatures, but as long as they close their eyes and fall asleep, without breathing or heartbeat, they are just dead bodies.From this point of view, it is true that sleep is the brother of death.
