The phone kept vibrating in his pocket. Chen Fangyu just got into the car and took it out to see that it was an unknown call. He couldn't help but sneered and answered the channel: "The news is fast enough, I called so urgently."

"What did you tell him?" There was an electronic voice on the other end of the phone that made people sound uncomfortable.

"Do I need to report to you what I told him?" Chen Fangyu's tone was very cold, "You and I are just a business partnership. Don't use your leadership airs to suppress me. If you want to show off, go find someone else."

The other party was not irritated by his words, perhaps because he couldn't hear the emotional ups and downs because of the voice changer, "I just want to warn you, you and I are in the same boat, if I capsize the boat, you will also run away No. So don't try to play tricks on me."

"You still have time to threaten me. You seem to be in a good mood?" Chen Fangyu's eyes sank. "I heard that he is still alive and dead after falling off the cliff, so you can sit still? Is he your son?"

The electronic voice was silent for a moment, and then said: "I didn't ask you to investigate this matter, but you brought it up? Did he really fall off the cliff by himself? Wasn't he pushed down by someone?"

"If thinking this way can make your conscience feel better, I'll tell you that he really jumped down by himself. As for the reason for his suicide, you know best in your heart."

"That's enough!" The cold electronic voice rarely heard any hint of anger, "This is my family business, and it's not up to you to take care of it. Anyway, remember, don't make extra trouble, or don't blame me for being merciless." After the other party finished speaking Just hung up the phone.

"Relentless?" Chen Fangyu's eyes became colder, showing a faint murderous intent. "Don't you already want to do something? Pretend to be a wolf with a big tail."

Chen Fangyu recalled what happened yesterday.

At about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, he received a call from Musize at home.

"Let's meet, Xishan Park at four o'clock, I'll send you the location." Musize cut to the chase.

"Why are you looking for me all of a sudden?" Chen Fangyu asked.

"I have something to do." Mu Xi Ze obviously didn't want to say more.

"I won't go unless you make it clear." Chen Fangyu was also polite.

Mu Xi Ze was silent for a while, Chen Fangyu heard him sigh softly, and finally the voice came again, "Fang Yu, just use the friendship we have known for more than [-] years as a guarantee, trust me once , see you for the last time."

"The last side?" Didn't hear a response, Chen Fangyu thought for a moment, and agreed, "Okay, but I will only see you alone, if I see other people around, I will leave."

"Okay, see you there or leave." There was a kind of determination in Mu Xi Ze's voice, which made Chen Fangyu feel flustered suddenly.

"Brother Kang, come with me later and bring the real guy, in case something changes—" Chen Fangyu didn't finish speaking.

The man standing quietly looked at him and asked, "Are you going to kill him?"

Chen Fangyu didn't make a sound for a while, turned her head and stared out of the window silently, after a long time, she said, "As long as he doesn't intend to kill me, don't touch him. Go and find out what's going on with him first."

"Yes." Brother Kang replied briefly.

At 45:[-], Chen Fangyu and Brother Kang arrived at the positioning location, but Mu Xize hadn't been seen yet.

Chen Fangyu gave Brother Kang a wink, and he took the initiative to step aside.Because the view from the cliff is relatively wide, there is no place to hide people. He also arranged for his younger brother to come to clear the field in advance, so there is no need to be too guarded against stabbing people in the back.

At 55:[-], Muxi Ze also arrived, and he was alone.

"You are very thoughtful in your work." On the way here, Mu Xi Ze met Chen Fangyu's people pretending to be maintenance workers and coaxed away other irrelevant people. At this time, he saw Brother Kang standing aside again, and couldn't help but sigh One sentence.

"You didn't say anything clearly, and I've done you a lot of face by coming." Chen Fangyu put her hands in her pockets and said impatiently, "Why did you ask me to come?"

"Come to kill you." Mu Xi Ze said lightly.

Chen Fangyu's face suddenly changed, and almost at the same time, Mu Xize heard a clear sound of bullets being loaded from his side, and turned his head to see that the muzzle of a black gun in Brother Kang's hand was facing him.

"Mu—Xi—Ze—" Chen Fangyu gritted her teeth.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Mu Xi Ze shrugged and smiled, "I was released for this reason. However, I didn't intend to actually execute it."

"Be released? What do you mean?"

"In the past two days, my personal freedom has been restricted. All communication devices have been confiscated, and I can't run. If it wasn't for me to get rid of you today, they might still lock me up." Mu Xi Ze still smiled, but the smile began to become helpless.

Chen Fangyu is not an idiot, he has already heard some tricks, "The 'they' you mentioned are those two? Just when the rumors got a little tight recently, they were anxious to silence them?"

Mu Xi Ze pouted noncommittally, "Compared to this, I find it even more unbelievable that they actually asked me to do it. Seriously, do you think I look like a murderer?"

Chen Fangyu felt that Mu Xize's appearance was a bit strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he frowned and looked at him a few more times before saying, "Since you told me everything, then I want to ask, if you don't kill me, What are they going to do? Keep trying differently?"

Mu Xi Ze shook his head, but did not answer his question, but continued what he said just now: "I always feel that I am not, even when I was studying with Master, although I knew the things I might come into contact with in the future, I I have always resisted in my heart, and I have been thinking, is there any way to get rid of this established fate without hurting my loved ones? But, no. I resisted for so long, and finally compromised. For To save my sister's life, I killed an innocent girl, they are about the same age, why should one have to let the other die in order to live?"

"You have done everything, is it useful to be sentimental now?" Chen Fangyu said with a firm tone, but in fact he was a little uneasy at this moment, always feeling that something big would happen next.

Mu Xize walked towards Chen Fangyu slowly, completely ignoring Brother Kang's still straight arm behind him, and smiled softly: "I'm not sentimental, but I think these things are ridiculous. Fangyu, why do you do such a thing? Why trample on the lives of those innocent children? They are orphans, and you were an orphan once, and you should empathize with what happened to them, why did you do such a murderous thing?"

"If you want to educate me, don't talk about it." Chen Fangyu looked gloomy, "Business is business, don't talk about so many moral rules. Moreover, because I am also an orphan, I know even more that orphans are not worthy of sympathy. Perhaps At some point in the past, when they were abandoned, they were indeed poor. But after that, because of such experiences, such lives, how many of them can grow up to be sane? Long-term lack In an environment without love, care, or even a little attention, their psychology will be distorted sooner or later. Look at me, isn't it a typical example? People like us, if they grow up unfortunately , Entering the society, I am afraid that I am not destroying myself or harming others. In this case, why not get out of the sea of ​​suffering earlier, and help those children who are really cared about and cared about. I am helping them, helping everyone. "

"Is this the reason you used to convince yourself?" Mu Xi Ze shook his head, his expression became a little sad, "Perhaps what you said makes sense, children who grow up in orphanages, because of lack of care since they were young, will indeed be older than ordinary children. Children who grow up in a family are more special, but this does not mean that they will definitely become bad people. And you have no right to choose whether they can survive for them. Over the years, what you have done is wrong .”

Chen Fangyu's expression was already ugly, "You came here today just to say this? You must be sick."

Mu Xi Ze laughed helplessly, "It's just the last piece of advice as a friend. From now on, what you do has nothing to do with me, and I have no chance to express my opinion again, so I will say it today." come out."

While speaking, Mu Xi Ze had gradually circled behind Chen Fangyu, almost standing on the edge of the cliff.

Chen Fangyu suddenly realized something, and stretched out his hand to pull him: "Hey——"

"Don't come here!" Mu Xi Ze took another small step back, the heel of one foot was already hanging in the air, he kept this posture and looked at Chen Fangyu, the slightly forced smile just now was gone.

"Cesis—don't mess around! You come back first, let's talk if you have something to say..." Chen Fangyu's face turned pale, and she wanted to get close to Mu Xize but was afraid that it would be bad if she moved too much, so she had to persuade him first: "Even if it is I did something wrong, and this shouldn’t be the reason why you can’t think about it! Based on what I know about you, you are not a person who would commit suicide. Think about the many people you care about around you, are you willing to let them go? And Su Ji—yes! Didn't you always want to protect him? Without you, he would be in danger!"

Mu Xi Ze turned his head slightly, and looked at Chen Fangyu with confusion and disappointment. "Until now, you are still using him to threaten me? Why do you all like to use threats to get me to do things for you? My biological parents are like this, and so are the brothers I grew up with... Obviously you are the ones. My closest person!"

"That's not what I meant just now—"

"Yes, Su Ji is my teacher's son. The teacher treated me well. He is dead now. I just want to save his son's life. This is the only way for me to repay him for his kindness in nurturing him for so many years. But who am I? Protect him with your hands?" Mu Xi Ze's eyes were red when he said this, he paused for two seconds, and then continued: "You, and my so-called biological parents, time and time again, use Su Ji's safety as a bargaining chip to threaten I do things. You are inseparable in my heart, like relatives, but I am just a chess piece that is easy to use to you. For more than [-] years, besides grandpa and teacher, you still have Who really treats me as a family member? In order to maintain this false "family" and "friendship", I have done so many things that should not be done, but what is the result? The result is that until today, I still have to do it for "Su Ji's safe and sound', accept the order of my biological parents to kill the first friend I've ever met in this life!"

"Cesis..." Chen Fangyu stared at the precarious man standing on one foot on the edge of the cliff, and begged: "Don't be impulsive, you should have told me these words a long time ago, if you could know your true thoughts earlier , I won't force you that much..."

"What's the point of saying this now." Mu Xi Ze lowered his head, looked at his feet, seemed a little dizzy, shook his body slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'm really tired, and I've had enough, that's it Bar."

"do not--"

"Murder pays for life. I killed that innocent child. If I do this, it will be regarded as atonement." After saying this, Mu Xi Ze suddenly leaned back and opened his arms. His whole body was like a wounded big animal. It fell rapidly like a bird, and disappeared from Chen Fangyu's sight in an instant.

"Wait...in the end..." Chen Fangyu lay on the ground blankly, staring at the calm water surface at the bottom of the cliff, trying to see something, but there was nothing.

"We have to go." Brother Kang came over and pulled him up at this moment. "Someone fell into the water. It's hard to guarantee that they won't be seen. Maybe the police have been called. We must leave here as soon as possible."

Chen Fangyu knew in his heart that Brother Kang was right, but his body was resisting leaving.He's never been one to be indecisive, nor is he likely to be tied down by emotion.But the scene just now had a big impact on his heart, and he couldn't accept the fact that Mu Xi Ze resolutely left in front of him.

"Let's go." Brother Kang almost lifted him up by the waist this time, tucked him under his elbow, and dragged him down the mountain like an eagle catching a chick.

Until the two got into the car, seeing that Chen Fangyu was still looking out of his mind, Brother Kang said again: "If you are really worried, just tell the person on the other side, they will definitely come to find someone. In our capacity , it is not convenient to come forward at this time."

After waiting for a long while, I heard Chen Fangyu respond quietly: "I see."

Then he took out his phone, turned it up and down several times, and finally landed on the name "Su Ji".

"Li Changsheng, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous."
