Against the current Hengdao

The rain finally stopped.

Yan Xiaodao was very worried when he returned home.He has always been a person who is reluctant to show his emotions. When he went upstairs, his head and upper body were as heavy as if they had been poured with lead, but his feet were as light as stepping on clouds.

He didn't know what to do, and he couldn't figure out many things. It was this kind of entanglement and unclear state of mind that made him very uncomfortable and unhappy.He is the kind of person who likes to see everything around him thoroughly and clearly, and take care of him steadily and thoughtfully. However, one day he suddenly discovered that the person he cares about beside him does not need his self-righteous care. Reversing the situation and moving the universe, the ability is so strong that it is almost going to heaven, as if playing with him!

The villa is floating in the melodious and beautiful sound of the piano.The combination of the expensive Steinway and the elegant Mr. Ling, how could the piano sound not be pleasant?It's just that listening to it now makes him feel even more sad and unacceptable.

Yang Xifeng winked at Yan Xiaodao warily and nervously, then shook his head, and mouthed: "I haven't been out of the room."

Yang Xifeng reported to his boss in a low voice, and Mr. Ling said to his brothers: "Don't hang around the door, it makes me upset too. I know Mr. Yan won't let me out of the room, so I'll just sit here and play the piano. You all should leave the room." !"

This man really didn't move the nest, and the sound of the piano continued throughout the night.

Yan Xiaodao looked at the back of the familiar figure sitting upright, Ling He was sitting at the end of the piano bench, beside him, there was still a vacant seat for him to invite someone to play with four hands!

Yan Xiaodao couldn't bear his emotions, and strode like a wind, carrying the wind, cloud, thunder and electricity momentum that wanted to roll up his sleeves and torture the truth. However, when he walked behind this person, facing Ling He's peaceful back and the undisturbed sound of the piano, All the aura of the stock was diluted by this move of Hua Gu Mian Zhang.

At the end of the song, Yan Xiaodao slammed his hands up and pressed the keys, causing the low and high registers to emit a vibrating roar. The ups and downs of the two voices shook lines in the eyebrows and eyes of the two, with complex and deep layers...

"Small knife." Ling He said softly.

Yan Xiaodao's gesture is to embrace the person from behind. It can be interpreted as an intimate gesture, or it can be understood as a restraint of Ling He, ready to be strangled at any time. How to interpret it all depends on the mood of the two.Ling He didn't resist, what else could he do in the face of the knife?

Yan Xiaodao pressed his chin to the top of Ling He's head, feeling the warmth of the other's long hair with a fingertip-sized square inch. Originally, a series of opening questions should have been "Did you send those tickets?", "There is your arrangement in Red Square." Arrangements" and "What are you planning?" However, these roundabout nonsense to cover up the nonsense in the final analysis point to one question: Did you actually kill Mai Yunliang?

He couldn't ask, because he didn't believe this at all, and Ling He was wronged!

After a while, Yan Xiaodao changed his mind and asked: "Ling He, you have always hated Mr. Mai, let alone Jian and You, why did you have to go to the concert that day? Why did you see Mai Yunliang?"

Ling He answered simply and straightforwardly: "It's purely at will, Mr. Yan, I didn't do anything that day."

Ling He never admitted what he did, and there was no need to pester and torture him, Yan Xiaodao was disappointed.

His thousands of words turned into a sincere sentence: "Master Qi is coming back soon, why don't you leave?"

Ling He was not afraid at all: "The piano that Mr. Yan just bought has not been played for two days. It is so expensive, and I want to cherish it for a few more days."

Ling He also rested his hands on the keys, his four hands were almost closed but hesitantly unable to hold each other.

Ling He laughed bitterly, he had nothing to say, his heart was already full of waves and huge waves.

Xiaodao, I didn't do anything in Red Square that day, and I had the audacity to stay at your house and never leave. Isn't the reason for the two the same?

I want to stay with you for a few more days.

I want to play the piano with you.

It is rare to find a confidant in this world, I am separated from you, I Linghe, it is very difficult to find another caring confidant, and I am also reluctant!

Yan Xiaodao withdrew his arm and sat beside Ling He without saying a word.The two of them are familiar with the road now and don't need to talk nonsense. With four hands on the keyboard at the same time, what they burst out is a passionate and soul-stirring combination of "Carmen".Now Yan Xiaodao can't miss a single sound, and he can do a job with ease, because even when Ling He is not by his side, he often replays the exercises in his mind, and the coordination between the four hands is impeccable, and this natural sense of tacit understanding is also helpless!

At the end of the song, Yan Xiaodao said good night in a very gracious manner: "Go to bed early."

With a cigarette between his fingers, he strolled to the balcony on the second floor.The tall camellias and rhododendrons are almost out of season, and the gorgeous big flowers are spread all over the ground, but the flower buds of irises and roses are about to emerge, one crop after another, there is always a fresh and lively scene that is unexpected.

It was also a coincidence that night, in the middle of the night, President Yan usually wouldn't come out for a stroll, he usually went to bed early and woke up early, but today he was so preoccupied that his muscles were so tense that his muscles ached.The outdoor humidity was heavy, and the moonlight shone on the wooden terrace. He walked slowly to the edge of the railing, wanting to see the falling flowers below and the ruthlessly overturning sea water.

His villa happened to be on the edge of the entire community, completely facing the sea, and it was an out-and-out villa with a sea view.This row of villas is also the most expensive in the community, and Lord Qi reserved the one with the best location for his godson to live in.The villa follows the terrain subtly and is built on a natural rocky elevation by the beach.The outside of his terrace happens to be suspended above the black rock, and it is built in a similar way to the Hanging Temple. A dozen logs are inserted into the gaps in the reef below to completely support the terrace and some components of the villa.

Thus, from the beach, their house stood far away on the black reef, like a unique viewing platform on the misty peaks.

The villa room overlooks the beach and a vast wave, the golden light and the red sun, the water and the sky line, it is too beautiful to behold.

However, there are very few people who would grab the railing and look straight down every day. Mr. Yan is so busy that he doesn't have time to take care of these small details.He really happened to glance out while leaning on the railing, and suddenly his heart sank and he settled there.

The joints of the corners of the armrests have extremely slight wear and tear, which is usually formed by the reciprocating strokes of the soles of the shoes, and two tiny barbs are lifted from the wood.

Looking further down, there seemed to be a trace of stepping on the edge of the log supported underneath.The log itself is straight up and down, slippery, and there is no place to grab your hand or step on your feet. If someone tries to climb up and down from here, Yan Xiaodao made up his mind, that is, he needs to use the side of the upper and sole to hold the log, so It is easy to leave "grabber" marks.

Looking down, the light is very dim, and we can only use a garden decorative lamp wrapped in the canopy of the maple tree in the yard.On the black reef below, there seemed to be half a footprint faintly.

……

At that moment, there was a kind of fright that cannot be described in words!

Yan Xiaodao laboriously stared down at the faintly visible traces hidden among the natural landscapes, staring until his eyes hurt, and his eyeballs almost broke through the red, swollen and bloodshot wrapping and blocking.He grabbed the railing with both hands, unbelievable, and his heart trembled...

Because it is not far from the beach and the sea, sea breeze and water mist invade all year round, the reef should be slippery, covered with dark green microorganisms and moss, which is a typical coastal ecology.Those footprints are clear and shallow, and it should be that a piece of moss happened to be rubbed off when stepping on it, revealing a large cross-sectional trace of the rubbed palm.After being washed by the heavy rain before, the traces are blurred, and the surrounding dew and mist are lingering.

The night was too deep and the light was not enough, so he really couldn't see farther, but judging by common sense, there should be more traces of shoe soles passing through the reef.This natural stone mountain is neither high nor short. The key is that the edge is steep and rugged. It is a section of cliff that has not been repaired, and it is a natural barrier for the villa area.When it was built like this, there was no preparation for people to climb up and down from here.

If he really climbed, Yan Xiaodao visually estimated the degree of steepness and slippery, he would probably have to work hard to get up and down, it would definitely not be easy!

……

Under the moonlight, Yan Xiaodao was leaning on the dangerous fence alone, his face was pale, and his black eyebrows and shining eyes still firmly maintained their original dignity under the weak light, not twisted and ferocious, nor violent and out of control.

The five fingers of his right hand were still tapping quickly on the railing subconsciously, like tapping a piano key, and a bone-chilling chill rolled down his spine.

It was as if a slender blade had been inserted into the gap between the softest and most defenseless ribs. It quietly gouged him open, split him, and then gently stirred him, causing a faint pang of pain to emerge from his throat. Sweet and fishy.

is it possible……

is it possible……

Right in his house, right under his nose.

There used to be a camera in the corner of the terrace, but Yan Xiaodao didn't even need to look at it. The camera must have "coincidentally" broken recently.

Who always likes to linger on the terrace to watch the scenery these days, and it takes half a day to spend?Who always waited on that high place for him to come home from get off work, looking to the left and seeing him driving home and entering the electric gate, and going to the right to see the reef, sandy beach and sea water?

……

Yan Xiaodao bit the metacarpal bone of his right hand uncomfortably, his habitual action when he was thinking hard.Even now when he bends and raises his right elbow, he can still feel the muscles and ligaments of the elbow joint tighten.The injury in that area is healed, but it will take a long time to completely restore the original ability and neatness.

Now, however, if this most important quality about a man is a sham, an out-and-out sham, everything that has happened before, even their dangers and battles together, his wounds, All could be a trap.

Why is this happening?

……

The pure and flawless sound of the piano is still going on, swimming melodiously from the room, floating across the sea, covering the entire beach with dark tides and turbulent waves.

The piano piece was not messed up at all, at least for a junior player like Yan Xiaodao, he couldn't hear the slightest bit of startle or tremor or wrong sound or leaked sound. His hands and heart were steady, so steady that it made people shudder.

In the middle, I could hear Xiong Er and San Niang, two obsequious bastards sneaking into the room, trying to please Mr. Ling and be good.Ling He should have moved his left hand to tease the dog. The two bastards were petted comfortably, and they groaned for a while before walking away, while Ling He's right hand was still playing the tune easily and naturally, perhaps with a smile on his lips Mind is such a powerful and invincible mind.

Yan Xiaodao couldn't look back, he felt that there were eyes behind his back, and those eyes were everywhere.At this moment, when he turned around, he could meet his eyes, and they both knew each other well.He moved his steps cautiously, slowly left the most important location on the scene, put one hand in his pocket, and scanned the field of vision lightly. The night was getting darker and darker, and he could only wait until tomorrow morning to take a closer look.

Now rushing back to the room and grabbing the client by the collar to question him, Ling He will not admit it.

At the beginning, the two shared a room on Ilu Island, and Ling He refused to admit it in the bathroom with his ruthless hands, how could he change his words now?

He must find out about this matter, whether he misunderstood it by catching wind and shadow, or whether he was played by others from the beginning to the end, and he cannot be reconciled until he finds out.

……

Mr. Yan wasn't the only one who didn't sleep all night. It was also this night that the special case team worked overtime overnight to check the surveillance cameras in various places, trying to narrow down the scope of suspects.

Captain Xue Qian put his legs up on the desk, and beat hard on his head, which was congested with various complicated information.The man sipped half a cup of coffee, took out a new cigarette, put it under his nose and sniffed it vigorously, his eyes lit up like a drug dog smelling K powder.

Liang Youhui was not suspected in the first place, but the case is at an impasse now because the list of relationships they investigated is too long, and it takes a lot of time to go through them one by one, and the team of two people can't arrange it.And most importantly, the surveillance cameras on the hotel's relevant floors and garages were sporadically broken at key locations, leaving no information about who entered that room that night.

Most of the surveillance cameras in the hotel are still useful. According to Xue Qian's judgment, the tweezers seem to have made a hasty plan, and they can only pick the most important locations to attack.If the hotel is likened to a big maze, the correct passage is blacked out at several key positions in the middle, making it impossible to walk through.Did the suspect intentionally break it before committing the crime, or did someone else deliberately turn off the monitor to muddy the water? ...

Some of the guests who checked into the hotel that night may have used false names and fake IDs to confuse the police. According to the check-in register, the real names of the guests who had entered Liang Youhui's room could not be found.According to common sense, Liang Youhui should not and cannot allow other guests to stay in the room that Liang Youhui has already booked. High-end hotels can make mistakes in this kind of thing. If two groups of guests are put together in one room, the front desk doesn't know what to do. A bunch of idiots!

When Xue Qian questioned the front desk at the hotel, he was so angry that he wanted to slap his mouth.Those few gentlemen and ladies at the front desk were idle and chatting and swiping their phones to pass the time when nothing happened. When something happened, they tried to make excuses, and none of them admitted that they had ever received guests in Liang Youhui's room.The waiters in the six-star hotel really put on the airs of a six-star hotel. Before seeing the police officer's card, they ignored these plain clothes carrying small black satchels with a look of disgust.Damn, do you know that we can't afford a six-star apartment?It is true that Captain Xue, who has never lived above a four-star hotel on a business trip, wanted to throw off his arms and curse at people.

The field staff strode into the office: "Captain Xue, we found the car!"

Xue Qian: "... Liang Youhui's missing Bentley?"

"Yes, it's the luxury car. It was in the northern suburbs far from the hotel where the crime occurred. It didn't flee to other provinces through the inter-provincial highway, so the previous search was negligent! The people in the nearby village reported that there was blood in the car, but people had already Run away." The policeman replied.

"Blood DNA test."

"I hope it's Mai Yunliang's blood, guess it should be."

Xue Qian slapped a thick stack of documents on the table, and the excitement of solving the case engulfed his nerve center again. He bit his cigarette butt and yelled at everyone in the room: "Check and check! All the surveillance along the way, who drove this car?" Arrived at the last car abandonment location!"

It's impossible for the whole city's surveillance system to be broken.

There is a clue to this matter, it just needs some time and manpower to look through the boring and lengthy surveillance videos along the line, and it takes a lot of time to do this.

"Let's find a way to narrow the scope and bypass those annoying surveillance cameras." Xue Qian took out half of the cigarette, folded it back a few times, and stuffed it back into his mouth, "Check if there is any Bentley with Liang Youhui in the garage." Cars that look alike, regardless of license plate, model or exterior color."

He is a wild and unconstrained idea. People who live in this kind of hotel are either rich or expensive. Does anyone else drive a Bentley?

The hotel garage is such a big place, and we quickly got feedback: there is no similar car on site.

"In the evening before the accident, did any similar vehicles enter the garage; and in the twenty-odd hours after the accident, did any similar vehicles sneak out without us sealing off the underground garage?" The captain continued to give orders, directing his subordinates work.

This time Captain Xue was really taken aback, he just felt that this matter was strange.

The garage monitoring is broken, but there are good cameras at the intersection leading to the main road after leaving the garage.The policeman pointed to the video and kept zooming in to a clearer map: "Captain Xue, this one was an hour before the time of the crime estimated by the forensic doctor. After passing this intersection, it is possible that it ended up in the garage. This is also a car. Bentley is about the same color as Liang Youhui's car!"

"The driver looked at the color of the jacket and it was a woman."

Xue Qian really wanted to run to the intersection and climb up the traffic light pole to kiss that precious camera baby, how much time he would have saved!He poked the screen with a cigarette butt: "Zoom in and zoom in, find a technician to check, who is the rich wife who is driving this woman!"

The mobile phone on the desk happened to be excited when a text message sounded, and Liang Youhui said: [Officer Xue, good evening, have you found my car? 】

Xue Qian: [There are eyebrows. 】

Liang Youhui: [Great, thank you Officer Xue. 】

Xue Qian: [Do you feel sorry for the car?You can't take away important physical evidence for a while. 】

Liang Youhui: [I don't feel distressed, I'm not in a hurry, I don't take it away, I just store it with Officer Xue, I feel at ease, it's more reassuring than stopping anywhere! 】

Young Master Liang rubbed his fingers after typing, wondering why my heart hurts, I have nothing to say.

Xue Qian read a line of small characters in WeChat, and hummed "There is something wrong".Don't feel bad, don't worry, why are you talking so much nonsense?It's not that your family can't afford it, young master, you can buy Bentleys in seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple, make a bunch of gourd dolls, switch them every day, and they won't repeat the same for a week!

……

Yan Xiaodao was dressed in a white sweater and sports pants, specially put on light running shoes, and drove out of the community in the early morning when the sky was shining golden light, and drove to the parking lot by the sea.

The dense fog covered his car with a layer of water droplets that were about to fall, covering the mood that was about to fall to the bottom of the valley at this time.His hair and shoulders were quickly wet by the seaside water vapor. He bowed his head and tried to light a cigarette but couldn't light it. His hands were slippery and the cigarette was wet... There was still a ray of luck and tenderness in his heart, and there was still a figure in his heart that belonged to those two days. In his mother's house in Ma Town, that shadow is pure and beautiful, leaning close to him, and the rhythm of the heartbeat is the same.

He wiped the dew on the tip of his nose, and ran towards the beach on foot in a certain direction, looking for the location of the cliff of his villa.

There are sporadic people running and exercising on the beach, and some people come out early in the morning to dig clam shells and razor clams from under the wet sand.Yan Xiaodao stepped on the sand and ran all the way, a pair of shoes quickly lost their true colors, and a dull pain appeared on the soles of his feet.

"Mr. Yan, do morning exercises!" I even ran into a neighbor.

"Yes, morning." Yan Xiaodao smiled uneasy.

He quickly ran under the black reef, looked up intently, and visually measured the terrain and distance. He was a little shocked and shocked... His heart was full of emotions, and he had nothing to say.

I have nothing to say about my own stupidity, ego, negligence, and recklessness.

This steepness, this height.

He used his experience to figure out which path the opponent would choose. Some huge rocks seemed to require the skill of free-hand rock climbing, and there was a pile of rubble that was tightly intertwined. A little climbing might touch the rubble and fall...

To be able to play like this is not only not lame, but it's fucking easy to fly over the wall.

……

Yan Xiaodao wasn't annoyed at all, only disappointed that he was not worthy of the other party telling him the basic truth.

There are also two points of consolation, at least, no one here is a paralyzed person with disabled legs, and the brain is still alive and strong!

He liked someone, and he still loved him deeply until this moment. I am afraid that he will not change or forget him for a long time.

Yan Xiaodao also doesn't think it's because of some kind of unwillingness and entanglement that "it's best not to get it". , mentality, maturity coincides with many ideas.He doesn't think that he can achieve tacit understanding and harmony with many people on the spiritual level. He is also a person with a bit of self-esteem and arrogance in his bones. Hate it!

He sincerely hoped that Ling He would live well, as long as he thought of this person in his mind, his heart would ache.The one-sided friendship really chilled him to the bone.

Half an hour later, Mr. Yan, who is extremely efficient in his work, has arrived in the old city, the best general hospital for orthopedics and sports injuries in this city.

Yan Xiaodao directly registered a special expert number of [-] yuan in the International Department.If you are willing to spend money, there is always a way to shorten the waiting time and improve the service quality. You can come to the expert number at four o'clock in the morning for general outpatient clinics!

Holding the registration slip, he walked through the corridors. He seemed to be the one with the most agile legs and feet in the whole corridor of this department.Surrounded by patients on crutches, hanging arms or sitting in wheelchairs.Looking back now, Yan Xiaodao has pushed Ling He's wheelchair many times...

"Director, I just want to ask you, what is the possibility of a person with a missing patella?" Yan Xiaodao asked the seemingly experienced old director in the office.

The director looked at Mr. Yan's extremely intact arms and legs and wondered: "The possibility of missing the patella is much higher...how about the patient?"

"I'm sorry the patient isn't here." Yan Xiaodao sat down on the patient's stool, bit the bullet and pressed the prescription slip on the old director's desk, "It's like the patella can't be felt, is it missing or atrophied? Or is it born without growth? is it possible?"

The director side is also frowning and pondering hard. After all, Mr. Yan has registered and made an appointment for the conversation: "Congenital patellar atrophy and hypoplasia are also quite common in our clinical cases, and there are also bone problems caused by the abuse of injectable drugs during puberty in children. , and there is... are you sure it is missing or atrophied? Show me the patient's film?"

Yan Xiaodao was suddenly stunned by the question.

He sure is a ghost.

Can he be sure that the patella is missing or atrophied?He just touched it with his hands, and he didn't even have professional orthopedic knowledge or massage theory. He was completely conceited that he could feel it out based on his own hand feeling!He has never seen any medical records or X-rays of Ling He.Watanabe Yangshan Jian Mingjue is also a few confused people, echoing what others say, who was the first to conclude that Mr. Ling is a cripple?

The old director looked at him as if he saw something strange: "That's right, there are no films, how can we be sure that it is a bone problem? If the patient has difficulty walking and cannot bend his knees, there may be muscle problems, ligament joints, or even bone problems. Mental problems!"

"It's my IQ problem." Yan Xiaodao looked out the window and came to a conclusion lightly.

"...Huh?" The old director really wanted to give Mr. Yan a few doses of calming Chinese medicine on the diagnosis sheet, and then transfer to the psychiatry department.

Yan Xiaodao resisted the psychological defense line that was full of holes and completely collapsed, and asked again: "Director, can I understand the situation of any patients with atrophy or loss of patella? Can these patients usually walk? Rehabilitation exercises to restore lower body ability?"

The director casually pointed to a boy who looked like a high school student walking in the corridor outside the door, and said in a low voice: "Did you see that kid? , the knee joints are weak, the lower limbs are weak, they are definitely not as agile as normal people, and they cannot participate in strenuous sports activities, but they can still take care of themselves after recovery... The key is that you have to bring the patient for me to see!"

"I understand."

"Thank you, Director, for bothering you."

"The patient won't be coming...he's in good health."

Yan Xiaodao withdrew the stool and stood up, still maintaining a cultivated smile on his face, and bid farewell to the doctor.

……

Yan Xiaodao really understood.He had euphemistically proposed several times to take Ling He to see an expert, but Mr. Ling cleverly rejected them in a few words. Now it seems that with Ling He's pride and strength, if this person is really lame, he must go to heaven and earth to read all the famous doctors in the world and spare no effort. You must heal yourself. How could this person be willing to sit in a wheelchair?

He just had a soft heart and didn't force the other party.He has seen the old-fashioned scars on the knees of Ling He's legs, even thick needle holes, obviously suffered physical abuse and injuries in his youth, those scars made him soft-hearted and even blinded.

Ling He must have been lame before, so he knew how to disguise his disability cleverly.However, this person must have been cured!
