Jiang Lai calmed down a little, and felt that it was really ugly to pull a girl on the street like this, so he pushed Chi Xiaohong into a KFC near the station.

The two sat in the corner, and Chi Xiaohong wept and drew the attention of passers-by.

Jiang Lai went to the counter where the food was ordered, took some napkins and stuffed them for Chi Xiaohong, watching her cry silently.

Chi Xiaohong had cried enough, and said with red eyes: "Brother, I can't bear to part with grandma and auntie, and also you and Xiao Wu, but, but I don't have the face to stay in that house anymore."

Jiang Lai took a deep breath, turned his head to one side, saw his messy hair from the reflection in the window, and hurriedly pressed it down with his hands.

"Chi Xiaohong," Jiang Lai pressed a few times but failed to suppress the stunned hair, feeling a little annoyed, "Do you believe in fate?"

Chi Xiaohong sniffled and looked blurred, "Huh?"

"I didn't believe it before, but I believe it a little bit in the past year." Jiang Lai gave up fighting against Dumao, retracted his hand and tapped on the table, "I started to believe in cause and effect, and fate. I think God has eyes, and all evil consequences are not. It’s just that it’s not time to report. If you didn’t come to our house, Xiao Wu and I might spend several times longer to find those bastards. I know what you think, but we have long been a family.”

Chi Xiaohong cried even more sadly when she heard this, she shrugged her shoulders, obviously there were not enough napkins.

"Go home, grandma needs you, and my mother also needs you. We are still waiting for you to take me and Xiao Wu out after the live broadcast becomes popular, wipe away our tears, and go home together."

In fact, before this, Jiang Lai had doubts about Chi Xiaohong's sudden appearance.During the time when his nerves were most sensitive, he even guessed that Chi Xiaohong was sent by Boss Qiu to confuse him and Xiao Wu.

But when the case was sorted out and everything was settled, Jiang Lai realized that Chi Xiaohong was the lead sent from heaven, the angel who solved the whole mystery.Therefore, Jiang Lai said that he began to believe in fate.

This is probably the case with good and evil, and the villains who are at ease for a while can't escape the shackles of law and morality in the end.

"Let's go, go home, we have to pick up Xiao Wu tomorrow." Jiang Lai patted Chi Xiaohong's hand and motioned for him to give him the backpack.

In the end, Chi Xiaohong returned to Shuangjiao Hutong, returned to Mrs. You's room, and returned to her single bed.

Mrs. You and Xue Man didn't mention the typo-filled note she left behind, but just looked at her with a smile.

Chi Xiaohong put away her bag, stuffed the bedside clothes back into her cupboard, and rubbed her eyes to massage Old Madam You's shoulders and legs.

Jiang Lai put his heart down, went back to his room and sat in front of the desk in a daze.

The desktop is messy, and there is a hand-painted book that stands out.Jiang Lai opened it and saw that it was Bei Xiaowu drawn by himself.Bei Xiaowu's sharp yet gentle eyes, clearly drawn by himself, still make one's heart beat faster at first glance.

Outside the window, the New Year's sun is golden and warm, the air is clean and clear, and magpies jumping on the walnut trees are chirping.

Jiang Lai opened the window a little, looked up at the bald canopy, and was surprised to find that a bird had built a nest on the top of the canopy.

Early the next morning, Jiang Lai rode a motorcycle to pick up Bei Xiaowu. This was Jiang Lai's first visit to the suburban detention center.Judging from the appearance alone, it is much more humane than I imagined. The gilt characters are serious and mighty, and the green tiles and red walls are very in line with the temperament of the ancient city.

The agreement was at 12:[-] noon, Jiang Lai arrived half an hour early and squatted on the flower bed by the roadside looking at the mountains in the distance.Probably because the weather was really good, he actually saw the area belonging to the cemetery at a glance.

Moving his sight, Jiang Lai vaguely saw a protruding place, where a pine tree stood proudly.

"Uncle," Jiang Lai raised the corners of his lips and smiled, "You know that, we have finally redressed your grievances, and the villains will be brought to justice. You can sleep in peace."

There was no cloud or wind in the thousand miles, Jiang Lai looked at the void quietly, for a long time until his eyes were sore.

"Jiang Lai!"

At some point, someone called him from behind, his voice was hoarse and hoarse as if it had been honed by rough stones.

Jiang Lai turned his head and looked at the person in front of him, somewhat genuine and somewhat ethereal, Jiang Lai finally confirmed that the person standing opposite was his child.

"Brother." Jiang Lai's voice was equally dry.

Then the two laughed at the same time, took a step forward in tacit understanding, and hugged each other tightly.

It's only been seven days since I saw Bei Xiaowu. A light beard has appeared on Bei Xiaowu's lips, and his hair is a bit messy and greasy. He looks sloppy and downcast.But Jiang Lai felt that Bei Xiaowu seemed to have matured a bit overnight, and the smell on his body had changed from a milky child to a male creature with a complex smell.

The two chests were tightly pressed together, and the heartbeat was almost crazy. Jiang Lai squeezed Bei Xiaowu's lower back, and Bei Xiaowu raised his hand to press Jiang Lai against his neck.

"It's finally over." Bei Xiaowu whispered in Jiang Lai's ear with an airy voice.

With a sore nose, Jiang Lai nodded slightly.

This year, they have experienced too much together. In the gaze of each other, they want to let go of everything and follow the tide of life and look forward countless times, but they also want to seek justice for Bei Tiangui, who died unjustly, and gritted their teeth countless times. persist in.

Those police officers who handled the case, those family members and friends who finally learned the truth, they only knew that the real culprit of a murder case was uncovered because of the persistence of the two children, but few of them could really understand the pain they suffered in their hearts.

At this moment, Jiang Lai hugged Bei Xiaowu tightly, and Bei Xiaowu also hugged Jiang Lai forcefully. They were not only hugging each other tightly, but also hugging the only person in the world who knew himself and was worth relying on.

In the long distance between heaven and earth, it happened that they met and experienced so much together. They had misfortune but were lucky in the end.

"Let's go, go home." The corner of Jiang Lai's lips brushed against Bei Xiaowu's earlobe, the important thing about the past is to look forward.

Bei Xiaowu smiled, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. It had been a long time since he smiled with relief, "Go home."

The two went home while talking, but they first arrived at a hotel that was closer to home.Jiang Lai used his ID card to open the room, and he had to let Bei Xiaowu wash it first, so as not to go home in ruins and make the old lady feel distressed.

Bei Xiaowu understood what Jiang Lai meant, and bought a change of clothes from inside to outside in the shopping mall next to the hotel.

They went upstairs together, in the mirror-like elevator, Jiang Lai quietly hooked Bei Xiaowu's finger with his little finger.He didn't know if what Bei Xiaowu said to himself at the New Year's Music Carnival still counted.

Now that they have confessed to each other, can they have the rest of their lives in another capacity?

As soon as Jiang Lai tentatively touched Bei Xiaowu's fingernails, Bei Xiaowu squeezed his smile and turned his head aside. He pretended to scratch his nose and lightly avoided Jiang Lai's hint.

Jiang Lai felt that he was rejected, and he didn't know what it was like, anyway, a blush spread from his cheeks to the roots of his ears.

"Ding..." The elevator arrived at their floor, and the two boys walked out of the elevator one after the other. In the dark corridor, Jiang Lai walked behind Bei Xiaowu, and a little sour and warm flame burst out of his heart unconsciously. , he had to admit that Bei Xiaowu was a bit stalwart and a bit inviting to rely on.

The door opened, and Bei Xiaowu turned around and went into the bathroom to wash up. The week in the detention center was very difficult, especially the unbearable thing was that he couldn't take a bath.

The sound of splashing water sounded, and Jiang Lai walked towards the window.He has been in the ancient city for more than a year, but he rarely has the opportunity to stand on a high ground and look down at the ancient building street where he lives.

At this moment, the most precious old and ancient buildings in the city are right under my eyes, and they are neat and orderly at first glance, and the small alleys cut a square piece into several square cakes horizontally and vertically.

There are old men and old ladies basking in the sun in the small square, the milk tea shop at the entrance of Shuangjiao Hutong is getting a new signboard, Xueman’s studio is in another alley, and a group of idle students are standing outside the self-study room of the community library, clam| The alley of Toad and Huangmao's house is being replaced with monitoring...

It turns out that we live in such a network.Jiang Lai smiled and drew with his fingers in the void.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, there was a rustling sound, and the hair dryer started working.

Jiang Lai went to the bathroom door and knocked, "Open the door and I'll blow it for you."

The sound of the hair dryer stopped, the bathroom door swung open, and a boy wearing only a thin T-shirt stood in the mist.The slightly longer wet hair hangs on the forehead, the eyebrows are crooked and the smile is bright.

Bei Xiaowu handed the blower to Jiang Lai, "Thank you."

Jiang Lai pushed Bei Xiaowu to sit on the edge of the bathtub, turned on the fan and began to blow the boy's hair.The hot wind passed between the fingers and the hair, taking away the water vapor but disturbing the hearts of both of them.

Bei Xiaowu didn't say a word, he stared straight at himself and Jiang Lai in the mirror, smiling sweetly.

Jiang Lai's face turned red uncontrollably again, and he turned his head away, obviously to avoid Bei Xiaowu's gaze in the mirror, but when he turned around like this, he was face to face with Bei Xiaowu.

Bei Xiaowu raised his hand, hooked Jiang Lai's hair-stretching hand, grabbed the hair dryer from the opponent's hand and threw it aside.

"Jiang Lai?"

"Ok?"

"You heard that the other day, right?"

"what?"

"I won't say it, but this time you say it first."

Both of Jiang Lai's hands were tightly held by Bei Xiaowu, and there was nowhere to hide.

"What did I say?" Jiang Lai's cheeks were hot, and the tips of his ears were red as hell.

"Say you like me." Bei Xiaowu's eyes were clear, the young man had no distracting thoughts at the moment, he was a pure and transparent glass bead.

Taking advantage of Bei Xiaowu's ecstasy, Jiang Lai withdrew his hand and patted the other person's head lightly, "Little boy, you're only a little older to learn how to tease people. You know that if you tease me, the consequences will be very serious."

Bei Xiaowu withdrew his gaze, curled his lips slightly, loosened his grip, and let Jiang Lai escape.

A few minutes later, the two of them took the elevator downstairs together, Jiang Lai stubbornly refused to confess his love, but intentionally or unintentionally leaned on Bei Xiaowu with his arm.As the elevator went down from floor to floor, he felt warm between his fingers, and his five fingers were held firmly by a big hand, and he tried to clasp his fingers tightly.

Jiang Lai tilted his head shyly, and coughed lightly, "Someone didn't let me touch just now."

"Ha," Bei Xiaowu took advantage of Jiang Lai's hand to relieve his strength and clasped Jiang Lai's ten fingers together, laughing, "I didn't take a bath at that time, I won't dare in the future."
