the shadow

Come everything goes well. "

Yin's complexion was not very good, he held the safe tightly with his fingers, nodded and got into the car, "Yeah. Let's go."

The decent German man closed the car door for the boy himself, and then signaled the gods and Mo Xie to get into the car.

Coming out of the hospital empty-handed, Yin's complexion was better than before, but still lacklustre, which seemed to bring some worry.

Walking slowly into the car, Shenji and Mo Xie wanted to comfort him, but they didn't know how to speak until the phone in Shenji's pocket rang.

The boy looked at his master in embarrassment, "It's Kamiya."

Yin rubbed his forehead, "Go ahead."

The god answered the phone, "...Hello, Aya."

On the other end of the phone was Kamiya's angry voice, "Where are you? Why didn't you contact me when you got off the plane? Where is Master Yin, why is the phone still off?"

The boy bit his lips and secretly looked at his master, "We just got off the plane...the master hasn't had time to turn on the phone..."

Kamiya suppressed his anger, "Would you say first if you want to leave? What's the use of making so many people worry about the masters wanting you?"

The conversation between the two could be heard clearly, and they reached out to pass the phone, "Kamiya, it's me. Don't blame me, they are just following my orders. Brother, I will call him back immediately when I get home." I explained it clearly on the phone, and you told him not to worry."

The other end of the phone paused, "...Kamiya understands. If you have no other orders, please ask Kamito to listen to the phone again."

Yin handed the phone to the god again, and the boy gave the owner a bitter look, "Aya..."

This time, Kamiya lowered his voice to make sure that Akane would not hear him again, and Akane only heard "Yes" a few times before hanging up the phone.

After returning to the manor, he didn't care about dinner, so he went upstairs and locked himself in the room.

After dialing her brother's phone number, Yin was ready to bear her lover's anger.

"Hello." There was no emotion in the sad voice on the other end of the phone.

The boy stood with his head bowed, "Brother, I'm sorry for making you worry."

"No, don't apologize just yet, as long as you have a reasonable explanation, we won't blame you." Qi Xi's cold and unkind tone said, "Speak, I'll listen."

"...I, I'm sorry I didn't think carefully," the young man closed his eyes, his fingers turned white, "...Because before returning home yesterday, I went to the airport right after the banquet to save time. I also carry all the documents with me. I didn't expect that the other party would advance the signing time, and all the documents required for the signing are with me, so I can only come back as soon as possible. Sorry, I left without having time to talk to you and my parents ...to make you worry..."

After listening to it completely, Qi Chou was silent for a few seconds, "Xiao Yin, you shouldn't make such a low-level mistake."

From the voice of my brother, I can faintly hear that my brother is really angry.But when he thought of the real reason for his return, the young man didn't even dare to think about it. One day his brother would know, and at that time, the brother who knew the truth would be so disappointed in himself...

"I'm sorry, I know I did something wrong, there will be no next time." The boy pinched his thigh with a white face, trying to cover up his panic with pain.

silence.Qi Xi didn't speak.

"Brother..." The young man called out cautiously, "I was really wrong, you punish me—"

"Remember to call your mother to tell her you're safe. Rest early."

Qi Chou ended the call without giving his lover a chance to continue, because he wanted him to know that not all mistakes can be made up for with punishment.

This was probably the first time in my life, and I secretly felt that I might have done something bad.

The mood has never been so heavy, even at that time when his limbs were broken and changed into the king's clothes as a scapegoat standing on the empty roof and all weapons were aimed at him, Yin's heart was not as flustered as it is now.

However, he has been thinking about this decision for a long time, and until today, he has actually made it, and there is still no wavering.So, only

——I'm sorry, pity, this time, forgive my selfishness, let me be completely self-willed.

During the usual bedtime, the boy tossed and turned unable to fall asleep.

Deceit, lies, truth, misunderstanding.The product of all these connections between people is an experience that Yin has never had before, and his brother's attitude of "not punishing" makes this simple boy with habitual thinking always feel a little owed in his heart.

1:[-] in the morning, in the dead of night.

The boy, who really couldn't sleep, planned to go downstairs to drink a glass of water. He passed the door of Shenshen and Mo Xie's room, paused, and said to himself, "I don't know if the two children remember to close the window when they are sleeping." He opened the door gently.

The room was pitch black, but Yin Yin's night vision was excellent, so he was startled by the figure of the god who suddenly jumped up from the ground.

He turned on the light extremely quickly, and his body subconsciously put on a defensive posture, but the situation in front of him made him feel completely inexplicable...

"you--"

The god was standing staggeringly on the ground at the end of his bed. Mo Xie was kneeling, but he stood up tremblingly at this moment, but this was not the strangest thing. Neatly wearing daytime trousers, but the upper body is naked|striped.

"Master, subordinate, did we wake you up..."

Yin was stunned for two seconds, "So what are you guys doing?"

Mo Xie was weak-tempered, his knees softened and he knelt down again, "Master, calm down, your subordinates disturbed your rest, please punish."

The god gave Mo Xie a sneaky look, but knelt down without any excuse.

Seeing the abnormal expressions of the two of them, he realized that there might be something that he had overlooked during the day.

Lifting his foot to enter the door, Yin sensed the faint smell of blood with his unusually sensitive sense of smell. Frowning, he quickly walked around behind the two of them. As expected, both of them had scars on their backs. Mottled and dazzling.

The feeling of protecting the calf in his heart was inexplicably aroused by the scene in front of him. The young man asked coldly, "Is it Kamiya? Who gave him the right to punish me?"

The god was worried that Kamiya would be hurt, so he stepped forward anxiously, "Master, calm down. The subordinates are just slaves. You don't have to be angry about such a trivial matter. Besides, what happened today, in the final analysis, is because of our dereliction of duty. So many people followed in fear..."

"You follow me and follow my orders. I'm the one to decide whether or not I've neglected my duties. What right does Kamiya have to touch you, huh?" Alluding to the scars on the backs of the two, which were obviously pulled out by belts, "Could it be that this is what my brother meant?"

Yin seldom gets angry on weekdays, and he and Mo Xie, who have only been together for more than two months, have never seen it before, and never expected that the master who has always treated everyone with a pleasant face would actually reprimand him with a straight face and neck. other people.

"Master, calm down," Mo Xie said in a low and weak voice, calm and steady, "The subordinates are terrified to receive such pity from the master. And this matter, if the subordinates receive the punishment, it will be considered as an end, the master Don't worry about it anymore, if you make a big fuss because of a little flesh and blood of your subordinates, it will be too worthless if you make the master angry."

Listening to Mo Xie's explanation, Yin didn't understand. The two of them were just taking the blame for him, but because he understood this, how could Yin, who was the initiator of the whole thing, feel at ease.

"Get up quickly and lie down on the bed."

Before the two of them could react, Yin had already turned around and left the room to get the medicine box.

"70? Or 80?"

Immortal asked the god who was lying on his stomach while dipping cotton in alcohol, which made the two big boys look confused.

"Ah? Master... what 70, 80?" The little claw on the god's head flickered as he turned around.

"Don't move." Yin slapped the boy not lightly but hard, "I asked, how many belts did I take?"

Speaking of this topic, the boy was a little embarrassed, and his voice was muffled, "100 times..."

Hidden paused for a moment, then thought, Mo Xie didn't know martial arts, and his strength was weak, so the traces drawn out should look lighter.Comparable to Mo Xie's injuries...

Mo Xie seemed to see his master's doubts, and explained, "Ah, the same as his subordinates, he only needs to be punished 50 times, but Mr. Qu also called later, so the punishment for Ah, was doubled..."

He felt that after listening to Mo Xie's explanation, he became even more confused.

The author has something to say: Please comment!

☆, Daqian

Far away in the sky | Qu, who had just finished his morning exercise in Chao H City, sneezed inexplicably. Before he could complain about the hot and cold weather in the south, he was embraced by the tall man behind him.

"Why did you catch a cold?" Rao frowned and hugged him tighter, "How many times have I told you that you are not allowed to wear so little for morning exercises."

Qu wiped the sweat off his neck casually, remembering the clothes his lover left at the end of the bed last night, and gave the man an elbow, "Did you prepare me sports clothes?"

Rao didn't dodge and was hit by his lover, but fortunately the force wasn't too strong, he laughed, "Okay, don't be angry. Go back and take a hot shower, I'll see if the masters are up."

Qu nodded and let him go, but he couldn't help but think happily that since the young master was found, his two masters finally got over their differences and reunited.The hostess naturally moved back to the Qi family's old house, and he and Rao finally didn't have to worry about their emotional life where they got together less and separated more.

Ever since Ji Jinyi moved back to the old house, Rao almost never had the chance to enter his master's room, and it was the same today, as soon as he knocked on the door, he was kicked out by Qi Zun.

Qu, who just changed his clothes after taking a shower, looked up and saw the lover who said "what's so great, I have a wife" on his face opened the door, and then walked straight over and hugged him.

Qu looked helplessly at the young man, and complained, "Those two little bastards are enough for me to worry about, and you still make me mess up every day."

The big man with long hands and long legs leaning on his lover snorted, "It's just that I got hit by the belt a few times, so there's nothing to worry about."

Qu squinted at his lover, "It's not your fault? Xiaojiu was only fined 50 belts by his brother, but you asked me to call at that time, and the penalty was doubled. The child didn't understand the situation. I don’t know why I feel wronged.”

The tall man curled his lips indifferently, and climbed higher with his lover's hand in his arms, "It's either Xiao Jiu or Xiao Ten all day long, what about me, huh? How much weight do I have in your heart?"

Qu seemed to have never thought that a man could be naive enough to be jealous of his son, so he was stunned for two seconds, then pushed the man away, "Get lost!"

It was already two o'clock in the morning local time after the medicine was given to the gods and Mo Xie.

Under the urging of the two men's fearful eyes and euphemistic pleading, Yin didn't show too much concern, and after a few words, he turned and went back to his room.Left and right couldn't sleep, and went to the small study in the cubicle.

There were less than four hours before the morning exercise time, the boy silently counted the time, took out a brand new notebook from the drawer, opened it, took out a pen, and wrote a self-criticism in the middle of the first line Three big characters.

Although I had been forced to write my written reflection several times at home, Yin was still not used to this form.

I remembered that when I was a child in the mercenary regiment, I made a big mistake once and was punished to hunt alone in the woods at midnight when I couldn’t see my fingers. I was not allowed to bring a gun, only a dagger. If I didn’t bring back enough prey the next morning , Continue to punish at night.Yin can't remember how many nights he was punished that time, how many nights he fought against wild beasts on the verge of death without sleep, and how many mornings he walked out of the woods with bloody animal corpses.

No matter how difficult it was at that time, in the end, I was forgiven after all.

What about this time—my brother was so angry that he didn’t even want to punish himself—can he be forgiven like before?

The boy looked at the three words "Review" in front of him, picked up a pen and started writing.

The empty restaurant made Qi Xi feel quite lonely, thinking of his lover who left without saying goodbye, Qi Xi let out a sigh of relief—could this be the younger brother's belated rebellious period?

Kamiya took a few sips of breakfast in the kitchen and then returned to the dining room. The untouched breakfast on the table showed that his master did not have a good appetite.Knowing that the master had been sulking all night because of Master Yin's affairs yesterday, he didn't want to get into trouble at this time, so he stood quietly behind Qixi and pretended to be a wooden man.

There was nothing abnormal on the surface of Kamiya, but he was thinking in his heart that it would take some time before the low-pressure breakfast scene would clear up. After all, since Master Yin went to Austria and Master had to eat breakfast alone, he didn’t How come I have seen the smiling face of my master.

Qi Lan didn't know the thoughts of the people behind him, so he filled his stomach by himself, and was about to get up when he remembered, "Have you reported to God today?"

Vienna is 6 hours slower than in China. Generally, the gods and their sleep time coincides with the breakfast time of Kamiya and Chisei. The practice of the two parties is that the gods will report the big and small matters of the day to Kamiya before going to bed, so that the domestic side can keep abreast of them. dynamic.But today, it wasn't until Qi Chou finished his breakfast and didn't listen to Shenya's report that he took the initiative to ask.

"...Never." Kamiya's reply seemed a little hesitant, "Last night, my subordinate——"

Seeing his subordinates hesitating so much, how could he not understand, frowned and scolded, "Make up your own mind."

Kamiya was stunned, and lowered his head, "This subordinate knows his mistake."

Qi Xie glanced at him, got up and went out the door.

In the morning, I went to the company to listen to the report and hold a meeting without any hesitation. When Qi Si had time to return to his office, it was already approaching lunch time.

Kamiya went downstairs to buy lunch, remembering that he still had to receive several proposals, Qi Chou's idea of ​​going to lie on the sofa for a while was overturned, so he had to sit back and open the computer to log in to the mailbox.

After downloading a bunch of files and putting them aside, Qi Chou habitually logged into his private mailbox to check recent emails.

Ok?

Qi Xi raised his eyebrows and looked at the signature of the latest email lying in the mailbox, who is it if it's not his brother?But the sending time, 10:29, is 04:29 Vienna time, did his dear "rebellious" lover not sleep at all?

Suppressing his anger, Qi Xi still clicked on the email.

For the scanned picture in pdf format, Qi Chou didn't even have time to wonder, but was stunned by the full text on the picture and the three words on the top.

Review book.

Kamiya went to buy lunch and came back to see Qi Chu staring at the computer screen intently. He was puzzled, but he didn't dare to disturb him, so he had to quietly close the door, put down the meal, and wait by the side.

Yin's self-criticism was written after the first draft, copied it again, and then scanned it out. It can be seen that the young man must have copied it very carefully.

There are two full sides of notebook-sized paper, and Qi Chou just read the beginning, and his heart is already unhappy.

Between the lines, Qi Chou seemed to see the humble and thin back of the young man through the paper. He stated his mistakes in a clumsy way, and asked for forgiveness in the most frank manner.

At this moment, Qi Lan suddenly realized that his "cold treatment" of his younger brother yesterday seemed to have gone too far, after all, he clearly knew what a delicate and sensitive person Yin was.

After pondering for a while, Qi Xie took out his mobile phone and sent a message to his lover who hadn't slept all night.

After sending an email to his brother, the boy who was sitting with his arms folded on his knees picked it up almost as soon as the phone vibrated——
