Born in the dark, Ended in the dawn

When he woke up, the sun was already shining brightly, and the air conditioner was still blowing cold wind. Wei Lan lazily lay on the bed for a long time before he woke up.

He felt that he had a very wonderful dream. In the dream, there was a guy with cool skin hugging him. After venting, his body was limp and didn't even bother to move. His body was hot and sticky with sweat. The moment he got close to the cold skin, he felt comfortable all over his body, and the dryness and heat were all gone.

Just when she was so comfortable that she was about to fall asleep, Wei Lan felt a cold hand touch her body, from the cheek to the chin, along the neck to the chest, and then to the waist, and then, the hand seemed to respond to him. Just like the expectation of him, it covered the things that had just settled down just now, and once again let him go to ruin.Such a wonderful way of stroking gave Wei Lan the illusion that it was not teasing, but more like being cherished, and the lingering feeling made people tremble all over.

"It's really not that bad..." Wei Lan murmured softly, with his arms resting on his face, blocking the glare of the light, what is this? Could it be that he loves work too much and neglects his personal life?Otherwise, why would I have such an exciting dream.

Grabbing a few balls of rotten paper that exuded its own smell by the pillow, and throwing them into the toilet, Wei Lan hurriedly tidied up his appearance, made out with his pet dog Dapi, and asked Lu Yang to borrow a new one. Passat, Pidianpidian rushed to the hospital.

Every Sunday is the day when Wei Lan visits Xiao Zixian, which has almost become a legal day for visiting the sick, and he persists unshakably.It's the same Cantonese-style boat porridge, but it's nondescript with a few thin-skinned meat buns with [-] pleats and a serving of cold skin. He didn't make a special trip to wake up Xiao Zixian today. He only got up at noon and had two meals. Meals are all settled by these things in front of me.

"I can sleep, but you can sleep better than me. How long do you plan to sleep?" Wei Lan complained vaguely, chewing on the buns, "It is said that there is no dutiful son before the bed for a long time. I am an apprentice. Is it enough to give you a long face?"

Six steamed buns and a bowl of porridge bottomed out in a while, and Wei Lan held the Liangpi in his hands and pulled it back and forth, "Just listen to me talking to myself, you can also get up and talk to me, I recently I have encountered evil and seen ghosts, and it is almost the ghost moon, so why not be more disturbed than now?"

"I don't know how to handle this case." Wei Lan pushed away the small table, lay lazily on the side of the hospital bed, and poked Xiao Zixian's arm, "I know it's not an ordinary accident or suicide case, but There's nothing I can do, I feel like there's going to be more of this happening, what would you do if it were you?"

The answer to him was the same silence as always. Wei Lan lay on his stomach with his head tilted, staring at Xiao Zixian's tall nose in a daze, and stretched out his hand unconsciously to pinch that beautiful nose. Even if you pinch your nose, you can't resist, who told you not to wake up."

People who are overwhelmed by silence can't breathe. Wei Lan doesn't like this kind of silence, "Even if there is no other way, I will investigate. If there is a wrong and a debtor, I don't believe I can't find a culprit. Also dig it out and crush it to see how it can harm people!"

A knock on the door interrupted Wei Lan's soliloquies. It was the first time that he met someone else when visiting a sick person, so he was unavoidably a little nervous. Wei Lan reluctantly moved to open the door. Unexpectedly, there was a People he knew but hadn't seen for a long time, or rather, he didn't dare to meet.

"Uncle Xiao, Aunt Sun!" Facing Xiao Zixian's parents, Wei Lan was somewhat uncomfortable. Regardless of whether the rumors in the bureau were true or not, he must have something to do with Xiao Zixian's coma. It's my father's colleague Tie Buddy, watching him grow up, and after his father disappeared, Uncle Xiao also paved the way for him, and the guilt in Wei Lan's heart can be said to grow exponentially.

Naturally, Xiao Chengan could see Wei Lan's embarrassment, and patted Wei Lan's shoulder with comfort, but he didn't say anything to comfort him. The child in front of him was so strong that it made people feel distressed, and he always had a fearless smile on his face, laughing and joking all day long , but what was suppressed in his heart, Xiao Chengan knew it well.

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other, aren't we unfamiliar?" Xiao Chengan put on an attitude of admonishing his son, pulled Wei Lan to his side with a half-smile, and naturally threw the crutch into Wei Lan's hand, "Help me sit on the chair, Ion Xian can get a better look if he gets closer."

Wei Lan obediently and respectfully supported Mr. Xiao, and sat on the chair he had sat on before, while he obediently stood aside.

"You child, you have a heart. You often come to see our Zixian. We all know it."

"How do you know?" Hearing Xiao Chengan's words, Wei Lan was very surprised. To put it bluntly, he was a little scared to meet Xiao Zixian's parents. No one, try to avoid running into them.

Seeing Wei Lan's surprised look, Xiao Chengan laughed, with a deep and sonorous voice, "I know you avoid us, I saw you a few times, and we didn't want to disturb your purity, so we went back first, or we just didn't know the door. There are people outside, you only have time to see your back when you open the door."

Wei Lan stopped talking, and it was easy to do if he didn't see it. It was so embarrassing for people to see him running away, so he had to use his housekeeping skills to continue smiling, "Uncle Xiao, I'm afraid I'll disturb your conversation , I finally came to see Brother Xiao and talk, how much trouble is it for me, an outsider, to be here."

"Look at you child, what are you talking about!" This time it was Aunt Sun who was not happy, "We watched you grow up to this age, and we didn't see you as a son. Zixian doesn't like to say that he doesn't love you. Laughing, you don’t get close to us, how can you be likable, I wish you would always come to our house to eat and have fun with us, why do you still treat yourself as an outsider. "

What you said is correct. Wei Lan is several years younger than Xiao Zixian. When he was a child, he went to Xiao’s house with Wei’s father. It is not an exaggeration to say that we have "know each other" for so many years and haven't seen each other much.

Later, something happened to the Wei family, and Xiao Chengan was injured and lost his left calf. The whole family was too busy taking care of Xiao Chengan, so they couldn’t care about Wei Lan. When Wei Lan entered the orphanage, there was no news of Xiao Zixian. Later, Xiao Zixian went to university. , lived in school, lived in the police dormitory after graduation, and never met Wei Lan again. No wonder when Xiao Zixian returned to school to give lectures, Wei Lan had no idea that the "Mr. Xiao" and "Senior Xiao" in front of him were the ones he had never met. The eldest brother of the Xiao family who met.

"Aunt Sun, don't be angry. I'm not afraid of causing trouble for you. Since you said so, I'll go to your house for dinner if I have nothing to do. Don't think I eat too much."

Hearing what Wei Lan said, Sun Xueling smiled, "Actually, seeing you here today, we also planned to leave, but after thinking about it, it's not a problem to avoid it like this. The longer you avoid, the more serious your relationship will be. There are some things to say That’s all right.” Sun Xueling took Wei Lan’s hand and sat on another empty bed, “We’ve heard those rumors too, whether it’s true or not, we can’t depend on you, this is a disaster of fate, see Look at your Uncle Xiao's legs..."

"Because of my injury, we originally didn't want Zixian to be admitted to the police academy. Police is a dangerous profession. It's good to have less legs. Maybe you will die at some point." Xiao Chengan took up the conversation, "But some people , I was born to do this job, and I can't avoid it, Zixian is, and you are too, and I still have to walk into this circle, no one can help me."

Xiao Chengan habitually took out a cigarette, and just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he was slapped away by Sun Xueling, "Oh, I forgot to be in the hospital, don't smoke, don't smoke." Putting away the cigarette, Xiao Chengan said again, " I decided to knock on the door today because I want to tell you something."

"Tell me, I'm listening." Wei Lan replied in a rare and obedient manner.

"In this line of work, you have to be able to restrain yourself. Not all cases can be handled by you. If you can intervene, you should intervene. If you can't, it's best to stay away and don't involve yourself in it."

Wei Lan sensitively sensed that there was something in Xiao Chengan's words, and her playful eyes sharpened instantly, and she asked in the face of the wind and mine, "Do you know anything about the two recent cases?"

Xiao Chengan is not shy, "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, I don't know if there are too many, after all, I quit this business after being injured, and I can get very little news. I just heard that these two cases happened in Hehe Building No. [-] in the community, this building itself is not right, and these two cases both happened in Building No. [-], which is even more wrong. I have been in this business for a long time, and I have seen those weird things before. I should stop or stop Come on, don't end up becoming a useless person like me."

It turns out that it's not just these two cases that are at issue, but Building No. [-] in the Muhe Community?This is quite useful news for Wei Lan. Although he still doesn't know where to start the investigation, it doesn't hurt to know the direction.As for Xiao Chengan trying to dissuade him so earnestly, Wei Lan was too embarrassed to disobey others' good intentions, so he could only verbally agree, "It's fine, don't worry, I also know how much I am, so I won't make fun of myself."

After sitting for a while, chatting about some trivial matters in life, knowing that Wei Lan is doing well now, the old couple returned home contentedly.

Wei Lan has already done scrubbing and muscle massage as proficiently as the nurse. He chose to visit Xiao Zixian on Sunday because the nurse had a rest on Sunday.After serving the patients, Wei Lan herself was sweating from the heat, and her clothes were sticking to her body, making her uncomfortable.

It was getting dark, and Wei Lan and Lu Yang made an appointment to go back to have dinner together in the evening. When they opened the door, they smelled a strong aroma of braised noodles. Before they could speak, their stomachs growled.

"Yangyang, you are so virtuous, whoever marries you will die happily." Looking at Lu Yang who came out of the kitchen with three delicacies stew, Wei Lan did not make fun of him. Usually at this time, Lu Yang He would always stare at him as if he was mentally retarded, but today, Lu Yang's expression was a little strange, and he even stood there staring at him, forgetting to put down the big bowl in his hand, "What are you looking at? I just found out today that I am handsome. Yeah?"

Lu Yang completely ignored Wei Lan, frowning and staring at the fuzzy mist behind Wei Lan, wondering if it was an illusion, the mist was slowly surging, making the door behind Wei Lan look distorted.

"Did something follow you in?"
