Delusion Master

Bai Yuan sat in his car and waited for Wei Lin, and saw him walking over while talking on his cell phone from the rearview mirror.

But the conversation didn't seem to connect, and he hung up quickly.

Bai Yuan poked his head out of the car window and said, "Get in my car."

Wei Lin said, "I'm going to drive home after dinner, and I have to go to work tomorrow, Friday."

Bai Yuan: "Before I took over the task, I told the old fat man that we took up our vacation today and had to pay it back tomorrow, and he immediately agreed. I'll take you home at night, and I'll pick you up on Monday morning."

Wei Lin got into his car and said with a smile, "Why do I feel that Mike Liu is a little afraid of you...well, he is afraid of you."

Bai Yuan said lightly: "He is just eager to save Yan Yujiu."

While speaking, Wei Lin made another phone call, but still no one answered, and felt something was wrong: "I have eleven missed calls on my mobile phone, all of which were from Li Minxing when I was doing tasks in the afternoon. I don't know why I am so anxious. Now When I went back, no one picked up.”

"Probably busy. It's not surprising that the guy has a relapse of his old illness and makes more than a dozen phone calls a day. Didn't you already help him submit the application for rehabilitation, and it will probably be approved in two or three days. Let's take a look at his 'absolute domain'." Bai Yuan started the car and drove out of the gate of the unit.He wanted to take Wei Lin to a French restaurant known for its elegant style and exquisite food, in order to make up for the regret of not being able to invite guests last time, so he naturally didn't want Li Minxing to come and disturb the situation again.

"I'm a little worried." Wei Lin frowned, feeling ominous in his heart.

Bai Yuan had no choice but to comfort him: "Well, call him after dinner, if there is still no answer, we will turn to his house and have a look."

Wei Lin nodded: "Okay."

+ + + + + +

In the private room of the restaurant, Wei Lin looked at the outrageously expensive prices on the menu and felt a little toothache. He really wanted to ask Bai Xiansen: Can we not force the price and eat something affordable?But the waiter was waiting respectfully aside, he was not ashamed to say it.

Bai Yuan likes to see his blinking eyes, hesitating to speak, and feels that it can affect Wei Lin's emotions and make him reveal his true defenseless side more, which is really a great achievement for him emotional thing.

Zhao Weilin gave a look of "Don't worry, I'll pay the bill", Bai Yuan didn't even look through the menu, and directly ordered pigeon breast salad with artichoke and truffle, fried scallops with foie gras sauce, braised veal in white sauce, and lamb saddle steak Drizzle mint juice, Bordeaux lamprey, caramel custard, and a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon.

To be honest, every dish is quite delicious, but Wei Lin always has the illusion that every bite is on the banknotes - even if it is not his own banknotes, it is quite painful.

"You don't eat big meals out three times a day, do you?" He asked Bai Yuan while chewing slowly, and at the same time remembered the brand new kitchen utensils in the other's house.

"How is it possible? I'm not a billionaire." Bai Yuan explained, "The housekeeping aunt usually takes care of breakfast and dinner, but she quit her job and went back to her hometown a few days ago, so I'll make something for myself first, and wait Let's find the right man."

"You know how to cook?" Wei Lin looked at him incredulously.

"Knowing some simple dishes, of course, is completely incomparable with your craftsmanship."

"Me, I can't cook three meals a day. I often oversleep in the morning and order takeaway at work at noon. Only dinner is carefully prepared. I'm just alone, so it doesn't matter what the dishes are."

Bai Yuan said pointedly: "I'm used to getting up early, so it's completely fine to make a nutritious breakfast or something. It seems that we are quite complementary."

Wei Lin was stunned, and laughed: "You won't think about dragging me to live in your house again, and use it for dinner to pay the rent?"

"Isn't that good?" Bai Yuan looked at him seriously, "I'll make you breakfast too, and then we'll go to work together. Look, you've even saved money on gas."

Wei Lin laughed happily: "Bai Xiansen, I'm not so short of money!"

Bai Yuan: "You are not lacking, I am lacking."

Wei Lin: "Are you short of money? Stop joking!"

Bai Yuan: "I'm not short of money, I'm short of you."

Wei Lin fell silent like a cat whose throat had been strangled.

The roots of his ears were very hot, and the red wine he had just swallowed burned like a flame in his stomach. "...I said Bai Yuan, you are a good straight man, how can you bend?" He sighed in a rare serious tone, "Have you thought it through yet?"

With a serious face, Bai Yuan held Wei Lin's left hand which was resting on the table with his right hand.He held it very hard, his palm was dry and warm, as if he wanted to use this movement and strength to convey his firm and warm feelings to the other party.

Wei Lin remained motionless, with a complicated expression on his face. He stared fixedly at the man in front of him, and seemed to lose focus, seeing the precarious and unpredictable future through the front.

He didn't speak, neither did Bai Yuan, they just held the back of his hand tightly and stubbornly.

After a long while, Wei Lin let out a long breath, turned his hands over, and interlocked with Bai Yuan's palms, "Can we still be partners?"

"Yes, but not just as a partner." Bai Yuan said.

Wei Lin smiled slowly: "Bai Xiansen, you are really greedy."

Bai Yuan asked back, "What about you?"

"I decided not to fall behind others, and let myself go for once." Wei Lin replied.

Bai Yuanteng stood up and locked the door of the box.

Wei Lin unconsciously moved towards the back of the bench: "What are you doing... This is a public place..."

Without further ado, Bai Yuan knelt on the chair cushion with one knee, stretched out his hand to support the back of Wei Lin's neck, bowed his head and kissed it.

This kiss was both impatient and lingering, with a rich aroma of red wine, which almost drunk people's bones.

Wei Lin felt that he had lost his balance and was about to fall into the void. All the fulcrums were on the palm of Bai Yuan holding him, and the only connection with the world was the damp heat between his lips and teeth.The place licked by the tip of the opponent's tongue was numb, and it radiated hundreds of times to the whole body, turning into an uncontrollable shivering feeling, and finally even the heart and soul trembled.

Unknowingly, he stretched out his hand and climbed up the back of the other party, his fingertips clasped the strong and elastic muscles through the shirt, and he was dizzy from being kissed.

Bai Yuan's lips and tongue drove straight in, exploring the long-awaited territory more deeply, seducing and coercing the other party, and sinking together with himself.He wrapped Wei Lin's waist with the other hand, and fell back on the bench seat, his knees squeezed into Wei Lin's legs without flinching.

Wei Lin suddenly regained his senses, pushed the man on him a little bit, and said out of breath, "Bai Xiansen, you are an old house on fire, it's out of control...Although I think I'm not thin-skinned, I'm not It's going to be a live erotica in a crowded restaurant."

Bai Yuan supported the chair cushion with his upper arm, breathing quickly, the tide of lust had not yet subsided from his face, the hair hanging down stuck to his wet forehead, it looked amazingly sexy, it was quite different from his usual coldness and sharpness It's like two different people.

"I'm sorry..." His voice was low and hoarse, revealing an unwilling restraint, "You taste so good, I couldn't hold back."

Wei Lin covered his face with one palm, thinking: Where the hell did he learn this trick!In the past, it was obviously a frigid style of painting, but now it looks like an old altar that has been held back for 30 years, and it suddenly opened (meat)!

"How about it, without the cup, does it feel different to kiss?" Bai Yuan took advantage of the victory and pursued.

Wei Lin continued to cover his face, not ashamed to admit that the feeling was better than last time.

Bai Yuan lowered his head and nibbled on the back of his hand covering his face. Before he let go, he couldn't help licking and sucking again, creating an olive-shaped, wet bright red mark with a ring of tooth marks on the side, like a personal seal. .

"give you."

Wei Lin sneered, and wiped the drool on the back of his hand on the other party: "Who wants it, take it back!"

"You've eaten all of it, so why do you dislike it?" Bai Yuan teased, allowing him to spoil his famous brand shirt.

Wei Lin was speechless, and urged: "Get up. You look thin, and it weighs so heavily."

The coat hanging on the clothespost by the wall, and the phone ringing loudly in the pocket.Bai Yuan got up reluctantly, returned to his seat, and let Wei Lin touch the phone.

"It's Li Minxing." Wei Lin looked at the screen and chose to connect.

There was no sound on the other end of the phone, and it was silent. "Li Minxing? Is that you? Speak up, what happened?" Wei Lin asked repeatedly, and at the same time pressed the voice button.

Then they heard a very small gasp, like a staccato sob, or an exhausted breath before choking.Wei Lin's face changed slightly: "Are you at home?"

The voice twitched in response.Wei Lin immediately said: "Hold on, we'll come right away!"

Bai Yuan had already picked up his coat, the two quickly left the box, went to the underground parking lot after paying the bill, started the car and drove towards Li Minxing's rented house near Greenwood Park.

The evening rush hour after [-] o'clock is the time when the roads in the urban area are the most congested. They raced against time as much as possible, received at least two tickets, and still took more than half an hour to reach their destination.

Li Minxing's house was dark, it seemed quite peaceful, Wei Lin knocked hard on the door twice, but there was no response from inside.The anti-theft door is a copper wall and iron wall that is not easy to pry, so he turned to the living room window facing the green belt. In the past, Li Minxing used to leave a palm-wide seam as a cat hole in order to facilitate the entry and exit of stray cats. It is estimated that it will not be changed in a while. This habit—working together with Bai Yuan to remove the window glass.

In order to prevent being attacked in the dark, they were full of vigilance when they sneaked in, ready to counterattack at any time, but the room was empty.

Wei Lin turned on the lights, searched every corner, and confirmed that there was no one inside.

All the furniture and utensils are in place, there is no trace of being turned over, and the floor is also very clean. It looks like an ordinary empty room where the owner is not at home.

Where did Li Minxing go? Did he call here?Wei Lin clicked his tongue in doubt and walked into the kitchen.

The kitchen was as clean as it had just been cleaned.Wei Lin turned his head and asked Bai Yuan: "When we came last time, did Li Minxing love being clean so much?"

Bai Yuan said: "I don't think he has done a big cleaning since he moved in."

The trash can moved slightly, Wei Lin walked over, bent down and took out a kitten with yellow and black stripes: "—Isn't this 'propeller'?"

Bai Yuan took it, Huamao recognized its new owner, rubbed it against his palm, raised its chin to beg to be stroked.

"Before going to work at noon today, I left enough cat food and water for it, and closed the doors and windows tightly. How did it slip out?" Bai Yuan stroked its dirty fur unhappily.

"Nostalgic." Wei Lin touched the cat's ears, "Propeller, have you seen Li Min?"

The propeller rolled in Bai Yuan's arms, and his little paws scratched his belly from time to time, which seemed uncomfortable.Bai Yuan said helplessly: "Don't look for food in the trash can in the future, what do you want to eat and I didn't buy it for you?"

Wei Lin called Li Minxing again, but this time the phone was turned off.

"In all likelihood, something happened to him." Wei Lin looked around worriedly, "This house has obviously been cleaned up thoroughly, and all traces have been erased."

"I want to cover it up." Bai Yuan said.

Wei Lin nodded: "I'm thinking about a very absurd possibility - what if what Li Minxing said last time about car accidents and fires were not accidents, but someone really wanted to put him to death?"

Bai Yuan: "But we have entered his spiritual world, those monitoring, tracking and hunting are indeed from his delusions."

Wei Lin: "But you also know that the pulse signal given by the brain is the same when dreaming and experiencing the same thing - if the delusion and the reality are mixed together, Li Minxing's heart is already nervous. How can I tell the difference between my brains?"

Bai Yuan frowned: "You mean, some of the real events were covered up and merged by his delusions, which caused us to be negligent?"

"It's very rare, but it's not impossible." Wei Lin rested his elbow on one hand, tapped his temple with the index finger of the other hand, and lowered his eyes, thinking, "Supposing there really is such a 'man in the dark', it would take a lot of trouble to deal with it." Li Minxing, then there must be a strong motive—what does he want? Or, for an ordinary programmer like Li Minxing, what should others covet or hate?"

"—Technology." Bai Yuan interjected tacitly, "I once thought, is the semi-finished brainwave decoding program in the 'Absolute Realm' a fantasy of Li Minxing's self-obsession, or a real existence in his subconscious? "

Wei Lin said: "The last time we came here, I also discussed it with him. I told him that the mind and the reality are two completely different worlds, 'Some memories you can bring out, while others are hidden deeper in the subconscious. that touches a part of our brain that we don't know about, that belongs to the Creator, you can't take it away'. But now, I'm also starting to wonder if someone can actually bring them out—could The ones who turn the mundane into the miraculous are called 'true geniuses'."

"Is Li Minxing a real genius?" Bai Yuan asked.

Wei Lin went to the study room again. After searching carefully, he smiled wryly: "I don't know. But compared with the last time I saw it, there is one less laptop here."
