I quietly watch you play

Friday, December 12, 29:9pm

Zhou Wei has been curled up in this small space for a whole day and night, and the time has been infinitely elongated in the silence and darkness.

He even looked forward to Lin Mu injecting him with the drug, which would make him fall asleep unconsciously, and pass the time much easier. He would not feel hunger and cold for a while, and he would not feel the numbness of staying in an awkward position for a long time. .

It should be night now, Zhou Wei felt some temperature changes slightly with his cold-numbed senses, they were most likely hiding outdoors, so Lin Mu had to let him sleep as a dead man during the day.

He supported his elbow and moved it a little, the scabbed strangulation on his ankle was worn away again, the familiar pain climbed up his calf, and the warm blood slid down his ankle.

The box board under him swayed slightly, and Zhou Wei stopped immediately.

He opened his empty eyes in the darkness, and he could vaguely see a little bit of light pouring in from the direction of his feet, which was quickly covered by the black shadow.

He calmly tried to distinguish the position and shape of the light, and guessed what kind of light source it was, low, long, horizontal...

Lin Mu tore off the tape on Zhou Wei's mouth, as if he had pulled off the skin on his lips, he gasped in pain.

Then, a piece of hard straw stuck into Zhou Wei's mouth, and he immediately took a sip, it was milk, hot milk.

Zhou Wei stretched his neck and sucked milk. He had long since lost the toughness of "not being able to eat what comes from you" when he was ten years old. He understood the truth that "you have a chance to win if you live".

Still not full—this was the first bite of food he had eaten since he was taken away. The kidnappers were always so stingy. In the past, the [-] yuan a day's living allowance was deducted.

After drinking the warm milk, Zhou Wei felt that he had come back to life a lot, and even his frozen brain turned around again. He seemed to know what the light source was just now!

The box returned to darkness, Lin Mu locked him up again, but...he actually forgot to seal his mouth again!

Zhou Wei still didn't dare to call for help. In the wilderness in the dark night, let alone whether anyone would hear him, he was afraid that the tree would stab his throat with the dagger if he made a sound.

It's safer to live on, Seventh Brother and the police will come to rescue him... coming soon, right?

Lin Shu leaned against an old poplar tree that was as thick as a three-person hug. In the past 24 hours, he had become significantly thinner than Zhou Wei. He didn't wear glasses, and his face was full of stubble. It was almost an out-of-shape change.

There is no lighting around, but the moon is good tonight. On the alternate night of the [-]th and [-]th of the lunar calendar, there is a diversion channel of a landscape river next to it, and the moonlight is reflected on the calm water.

There are many tall poplar trees growing on both sides of the road. Yes, these are poplar trees... When I was a child in Molin, there were many poplar trees planted there. Teacher Lin said that if he could adopt himself, he would like to change it for him. The name is "Lin Yang".

Yang, tall and straight, stands upright. Its advantages are easy survival, fast growth, and severe cold resistance.

But now few cities like this kind of tree. Poplar will fly a lot of poplar catkins in spring, which is its life-continuing form, but people hate them and even try to castrate them.

Teacher Lin, he secretly called him Dad in his heart.He often went to the old house in Linjiaxiang to play with Lin Yulinzhen. There was also an old tree in front of the old house, and the three children had to hold hands to hug each other.

It was a really good time. He didn't understand why Lin Zhen hated his parents' discipline so much, because he enjoyed the feeling of being restrained very much, which just reached a delicate balance with his inner sense of loss of control.

If he is Teacher Lin's child, he must be his most obedient child.

Lin Mu gradually grew up, and he knew that he was different from other children in many ways. He did not grow as fast as a poplar as Mr. Lin expected, and he would wet the bed like a baby when he was a teenager.

From time to time, he would hastily cover up those bad deeds, and if he was not careful, he would be laughed at by everyone.Smiles can also be malicious.

Then one day, he wets the bed horribly again, but this time it seems different, with a secret excitement that makes him both ashamed and obsessed.

Ji Qing was Lin Muzhi's first object to Mu Shaoai, she had a smell similar to his, that kind of wetness that had been pickled in rot for a long time without seeing the sun.

They are like the same kind who meet by chance in a different race, they are attracted to each other, and they quickly find a way to get along.

In that era when puppy love was regarded as a scourge, he and her carefully kept a safe distance, so that they could feel each other's temperature without letting the spikes on their bodies hurt each other.

Lin Mu stained her with the first splash of blood. He killed her animal father with his own hands on the night after the college entrance examination. That man often beat her, especially hard in those few days.

She cried and told him that her father used to force her to do that kind of thing with other men to repay her debts, that's why her mother went crazy and committed suicide; now that she is grown up, her father will force her to do that kind of thing, Make money for him to buy wine, maybe she will go crazy and die like her mother.

Lin Mu became Ji Qing's hero, and became a disobedient child of the Lin family. He dared not face Teacher Lin again. He even led Lin Yu to teach him to lie to cover himself. He was sorry for the Lin family.

But what Lin Mu didn't expect was that the girl he rescued with dirty hands didn't listen to his words and stayed in the orphanage cleanly, but soon came to Danyang with Ji Jinfu.

Ji Qing said that he helped her, and she also wanted to help him. People like them must help each other if they want to survive!

Lin Shu raised his head and looked up at the thin branches of the withered poplar. There were snowflakes falling from the sky, and it was snowing.Rong, it's snowing——

He seemed to hear Wei Lerong's laughter like a silver bell, and her smile like a warm sun, which could dispel all darkness and cold.

The first time he saw Xiao Rong, it was such a snowy night, but there was no moon that night... No, Xiao Rong was his bright moonlight.

If it wasn't for Ji Qing, Lin Mu and Wei Lerong might never have met each other. Looking back now, Ji Qing probably deliberately created the opportunity for them to get to know each other.

Ji Qing is very good at grasping people's hearts. She has long known that she is just like trees, and a girl like Wei Lerong who is as sunny as Wei Lerong is his dream.

When Lin Mu meets Wei Lerong, it's like life meets sunlight. He can no longer keep a distance rationally. He can't help approaching, like a singing nightingale, even if roses and thorns pierce his chest and heart, because separation is death.

Lin Mu took out the phone that was warmed by body temperature from his arms, and re-watched the 13-second video for the umpteenth time.

In the picture, Wei Lerong is wearing a plain white dress, curled up on the hospital bed with her small bag in her arms, and a maid-like figure approaches with food. She calls her wife and wants to feed her.

Wei Lerong shrank back towards the head of the bed in fear, his eyes were wary, and his arms hugged even tighter.She was whispering in a low voice, her voice was hoarse, but Lin Mu could understand her lips, she was repeating: go home, I want, home... good home, I go home...

The maid raised the spoon, she shook the bowl and knocked it over, the soup spilled on the bedding and stained her skirt.

Wei Lerong was even more frightened, she shouted one word in a hoarse voice: Lin——

The video from the candid perspective stopped abruptly on Wei Lerong's vague expression, the word "Lin" was still in her mouth, her expression was full of panic and asking for help.

Lin Mu leaned there smiling and weeping, rubbing Wei Lerong's cheek on the screen with his thumb, accidentally touching the progress bar and dragging it back a little.

Lin, he heard Xiao Rong calling him. His Xiao Rong wanted to go home. When he fed Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong would always finish eating obediently. His Xiao Rong didn't like it there and just wanted to go back to him.

You see, why did you run away before?Now that I go back, I realize that you can’t live without me, right?You also want to be with me forever.

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Rong, don't be afraid," Lin Mu said softly into the phone, "I'll take you home soon, we will never be apart—"

Friday, 10:19 p.m.

"He didn't drive his own car." In front of Jiang Xiaoqi was Ji Qing's statement and the complete file of Zhou Wei's kidnapping case 13 years ago. "You also checked all the vehicles that came in and out of the clinic or passed by around the time of the night..."

Jiang Xiaoming squeezed an egg yolk pie through the packing bag irritably: "Yes! There is no suspicious vehicle. We have checked all the toll booths and highway entrances and exits since the incident last night and found no trace of Lin Mu and Zhou Wei. Last time he had Ji Qing's dark villa under the lights to hide, and he could come and go freely with the car key in the basement of the villa, but this time? What kind of ability does the old bastard have to escape all investigations! "

Boom!The plastic bag was crushed by him, and the cake crumbs were sprayed all over the table.

Jiang Xiaoqi frowned, he must have used some method to transfer and hide Zhou Wei, but they hadn't thought of it yet.

Brother Baike, who was wearing the earphones, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up straight from the chair. The next second, Jiang Xiaoqi's phone rang, and it was the number of Lin Mu's phone!

Jiang Xiaoqi counted to three silently in his heart, and answered: "Lin Mu! Let Zhou Wei go, return him to me!"

"I told you how to get him back," Lin Mu said, "Where is Xiao Rong? Did you find her for me?"

"She is at Zhou's house, bodyguards and police are protecting her, I need time." Jiang Xiaoqi glanced at Consultant Pan's gesture of paying attention to the rhythm, signaling him to try to delay the conversation as much as possible, and the positioning of the technical investigation will take more time.

"Let me see him, let me see how Xiao Wei is doing? Lin Mu, you are a doctor, you know that he is not in good health, he has had a craniotomy... Please, please don't hurt him, what am I I can promise you that you will not hurt him..."

"That's very easy," Lin Mu said in a smug tone, as if he was confident when facing a patient, "The blood coagulation injection you used only needs 0.5ml to be injected through his carotid artery twice. The little hemangioma popped open—”

He made a mocking plosive sound, which seemed very humorous.

The five fingers of Jiang Xiaoqi's hand propped on the edge of the table suddenly tightened, his masseter muscles tensed and trembled, and the veins on his forehead burst out, as if a huge equivalent nuclear/explosion occurred in his body. Except for the copper wall and iron wall, which was barely supporting it, the inside had already exploded. A bloody mess.

Jiang Xiaoming was also shocked by the sudden confession. It turned out that there was an unknown crime behind Zhou Wei's illness.He wanted to touch his younger brother comfortingly, but he didn't let go, as if even the slightest force would trigger his emotional dominoes, and then trigger a landslide and tsunami-like eruption.

Lin Mu continued: "How deep is the love between men? You don't understand feelings at all! Can you treat him like I do to Xiaorong? He is deaf, blind, and dumb. , Disabled...you can do it and still love him? Do you need me to test you?" He laughed contemptuously.

"Lin Mu," Jiang Xiaoqi's eyes were bloodshot, with the madness before the bloodthirsty beast, "Lin Mu, I want to see him, right now, right now!"

"If you hurt a single hair of his, I promise... I guarantee that you will never see Wei Lerong again in this life, until you die, go to hell, and go to ashes, and you will never say a word to her again! I will also treat you to Xiao Wei Tell her in everything you do that if she loves her child so much, she will definitely hate you so much that you will never see each other again, and you will never be reborn forever! I, I will do what I say."

"Xiao Rong won't hate me! She wants to see me, she wants to be with me, it's you who don't let me, it's all you! You are the first to make mistakes, force me to drop out of school, break us up..."

Lin Mu growled and retorted, as if he couldn't accept the ending of being invisible and regretting forever, and he was obviously confused about what happened in the past and what happened in the present, and his mental state was rapidly collapsing.

Consultant Pan held up a reminder board to Jiang Xiaoqi: Don't provoke him anymore!calm!

"That's right, Wei Lerong really wants to see you, she doesn't like staying here at all." Jiang Xiaoqi took deep breaths again and again, trying to keep his tone as calm as possible, "Don't hurt her baby, I can try to help her escape. "

Lin Mu seemed to accept the proposal: "I can show you him. I'll give you another four hours." Then he hung up the phone.

Complicated calculations and searches that ordinary people cannot understand are still being carried out on the technical investigation computer, and the Baike brother still has not given up: "The scope is not specific enough, it covers about 1.5 square kilometers, which is equivalent to [-] times the size of Dong'an District ……wipe!"

The computer screen returned to calm. An area located in the east and south of Danyang was drawn by the dynamic circle of the red dotted line. It straddled the fourth and fifth ring roads. It was not under the jurisdiction of Dong'an. Residential, commercial, entertainment, and parks were composed of various functional blocks. There are many overlaps, and the joint search and arrest is very difficult.

Jiang Xiaoqi propped his arms on the table without moving, looking down at his mobile phone screen, he was waiting for Zhou Wei's video, and trying to calm himself down.

He felt like a smoking motherboard, starting any wrong process could lead to a complete crash of the system.

He has to hold on for Xiao Wei, he has to take him home himself——

"Here we come!" The technical detective projected the video on the screen, and everyone turned their heads to look at it.
