Kneel down

The fan in the dark basement was humming, and the air was so stale that it was disgusting.

"Squeak-"

The rusty iron door was roughly pulled open, and the door hinges rubbed against the door leaf, making a screeching sound.Immediately after the knocking sound of heels and the ground, someone walked into the basement, and the dim light illuminated the other party's expensive suit.Another person came in from behind the door. His clothes were shabby but clean, his eyes were sunken, his face was yellow and thin, and he looked malnourished.

"You asked me to kidnap Wei Wuxian?" The person who entered the basement behind spoke, his voice hoarse and unpleasant.

"Did I not express clearly enough before?" The man in the suit and leather shoes glanced around in disgust, found a chair that was still complete and sat down, took out a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his nose.

The man behind sat down on a bed in the corner, looked around with cloudy eyes, and twisted his hands together, feeling very uneasy.

The two people in the basement fell silent, and the air was so difficult to circulate in the room.

The basement is very damp, everything exudes a musty smell, and people are the same, rotting alone in the dark place.There are no windows for gout, only a long and narrow road leading to the outside. Once the iron door is closed, the fresh air is kept outside. It seems that if there is no electric fan to move the air, it will be suffocating after a long time.

Every city will have such a place, dark and damp, inhabited by a group of people who have no work and are just waiting to die.They may be terminally ill patients, homeless vagrants, or escaped criminals, looking for such places to live in various cities.After living in these places for a long time, people will also mold and rot, and bacteria that cannot see the sun will take root in these places.No normal person is willing to come to these places, and the musty smell they get after staying for a long time makes normal living people sick.

Wen Chao, who ran into Jiang's family with his car and escaped from the city, found such a place to stay.Look for cheap hourly jobs during the day, and eat and drink with the money you earn during the day at night. There will be no savings. If you have no money, you will find something to do.The furniture in this basement was all dug up from the garbage dump next door. After all, Wen Chao, who lived a wealthy life, knew how to clean it. Most of the other people moved it back and used it, no matter what disgusting things were stuck on it.

After all, Wen Chao was still wanted by the police station. He lived in the same place for a long time and was suspected of being noticed by others, so he changed places and hid everywhere.

Wen Chao changed places like this, but was still found by Bai Cheng.The lion opened his mouth to ask Wen Chao to help him kidnap Wei Wuxian.

"When you are kidnapped, hand over the person to me and you can leave. I have prepared a new identity and money for you, and arranged for a cargo ship to take you abroad. In just a short while, you can escape from the police and go abroad to live a happy life Why not?" Bai Cheng spread his hands, he just wanted to talk to Wen Chao quickly about leaving this place, and immediately throw away this smelly suit when he returned.

"I...I'm still a prisoner." Wen Chao muttered in a low voice, his voice was so small that he could barely hear it.

Back then, with the help of the rest of Wen's people, he came back from abroad through all kinds of hardships, just to kill one of the leaders of the four major groups. He squatted for a long time and never found a suitable opportunity.Before he was discovered, he had no choice but to drive into Jiang's car in a hurry. He knew that it was impossible to kill someone with the strength at that time, so he went back to the city and hit Jiang Yanli's car.He thought he would succeed this time, but who knew that Jiang Yanli was only seriously injured and unconscious.Originally, the police station had been keeping a close eye on his whereabouts. After he injured Jiang Yanli and was almost arrested, Wen Chao had no choice but to escape from the city. Without the help of the rest of the Wen family, he had no choice but to wander around Fleeing.

"Don't you hate the members of the Big Four Groups? Now that you're a fugitive?!" As a fugitive, Wen Chao couldn't do this better. Anyway, no one would believe what he said. If he succeeds, he can also find a way to get out of his body.

Wen Chao clenched his twisted hands instantly, and looked up at Bai Cheng, "Okay! I promise you! But first you have to promise me that you can ensure that I can go abroad safely!"

"That's for sure." Bai Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, stepped forward to shake Wen Chao's hand, and said with a smile, "It's a pleasant cooperation."

Bai Cheng turned around and went out, the handkerchief that he had wiped and shook hands with Wen Chao was thrown in the trash can at the exit of the basement, his eyes contemptuously looked at the basement, and he sneered, "The pampered son is easy to deceive, Still dreaming of leaving the country safely? It would be nice to leave a whole body after the court trial."

Bai Cheng's wishful thinking was very loud, using Wen Chao to kidnap Wei Wuxian, and then using Wei Wuxian's relationship with Jiang Jialan's family to blackmail him.The blackmail is the best, and if the blackmail is not enough, Wen Chao will tear up the ticket, and then he will report Wen Chao. Anyway, Wen Chao has nothing to prove, he just said something, and the judge will believe it.This not only solved Wen Chao, but also severely suppressed the Jiang family, alleviating worries and hatred.

"What's going on here?" Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng got together, looking at an email on the computer screen with solemn expressions.

"I don't know." Jiang Cheng shook his head, and swiped up to call up the sender's name, which was just a string of meaningless numbers.

"Go to hell, you guys." Wei Wuxian read out the contents of the email, "How could your private email be leaked?"

"I don't know either. There are only a few people who know my private email address, and they won't play such casual pranks." Jiang Cheng frowned. After all, something with such a bad meaning can be used as a joke if it is not meant to be used as a joke. of.

"Think about it again." Wei Wuxian sat aside and rubbed his temples.After finally calming down a bit, such a mess happened again.

"No clue, it can't be someone who knows my email address."

"This is weird, so can I find the IP address of the email?"

"It should be able to find it. I'll ask someone to help me try."

The next day, when Wei Wuxian was chatting with Lan Wangji in the office, Jiang Cheng walked in with a dark face.

"Find it?" Wei Wuxian hung up the phone, picked up a few pieces of paper that Jiang Cheng threw on his desk, "Isn't this... this IP address is from outside the province? Isn't Bai Cheng in the city these days? ?”

"Look at the second and third pictures." Jiang Cheng sat down on the sofa beside him, his face terribly gloomy.

"'Guess who's going to happen next?', 'You all go to hell, it's best if you're all dead'." The content of these three consecutive emails put together is extremely vicious, and the sender of the next two emails The id is different, but the ip address is also displayed outside the province.

From the content of these three emails, Wei Wuxian probably guessed who it was.Wei WuXian crumpled up the three pieces of paper, threw them into the wastebasket beside him, and said angrily, "Wen Chao? How dare he fucking come back? Didn't die outside and still want to come back to find trouble?"

Jiang Cheng slapped the armrest of the sofa, gritted his teeth, and said, "It's his ability to escape so that we can't catch him, yet he dares to come back to me! I called the Jin family and asked Jin Ling to ask for leave to come back these few days." Jin stay here, don't go out if you have nothing to do. Take my sister to Jiang's private hospital, and tell the police station, asking them to send some people to guard the hospital."

"For the time being, that's all we can do. In the past two days, we'll try not to go far except for the hospital. It's best to keep it safe, so as not to cause any trouble."

"Who asked you to take annual leave to return to China!" Lan Wangji was sitting in the office, with Lan Qiren's furious face on the computer screen.

This phone call has been going on for half an hour, and this half hour is basically Lan Qiren scolding Lan Wangji for meeting Wei Wuxian abroad.But the one-year deadline for Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian to see each other has come to an end, no matter how angry Lan Qiren is, he can't help Lan Wangji.Just when Lan Qiren's anger was about to dissipate, Lan Wangji just rightly brought up the matter of going back to China on annual leave, and Lan Qiren, who had just calmed down, exploded again.

"You said that." No matter how scolded by Lan Qiren, Lan Wangji still looked as if nothing had happened.Listen calmly and answer calmly.

"When did I say that!"

"'If you don't have any contact with China within a year, you can arrange your own annual leave when working abroad', that's what you said."

Although Lan Wangji spoke lightly, his tone was very firm.Having said this, Lan Qiren also remembered, this is what Lan Wangji said to Lan Wangji unintentionally after Lan Wangji went abroad, and he didn't expect Lan Wangji to remember it until now.Now Lan Qiren dug a big hole for himself, and he jumped into it with a happy smile.

"You! You said it's not good to be with someone, you have to be with a man, and it has to be Wei Ying!"

"Wei Ying is fine."

"What's wrong with him! He looks like a fool!"

"Everywhere is good."

"Okay, okay, I really can't tell you if you're old enough! If you like it, you like it. Don't bring me to Lan's house in the future!"

"Uncle, I want to take Wei Ying to worship my father and mother."

"Impossible! You dare to take him to your father's and mother's grave. I won't take care of you when you come back!"

"Uncle, I am a grown-up."

"How old are you? Huh? How old are you?"

"Father said that you should be with the person you like."

"..."

Lan Wangji's father had indeed said this to Lan Wangji before his death. At that time, Lan Wangji's father was seriously injured and could only hang on his breath. He insisted on saying the last sentence to Lan Wangji before closing his eyes. Qi Ren was also present, of course he had heard all these words verbatim.Lan Qiren got a headache from being blocked, and forced himself to calm down, but his tone was still bad, "The next family dinner, if Wei Ying doesn't behave well, he won't even think about stepping into Lan's house in the future."

"It's uncle, thank you uncle."

"Hang up, really, everyone is an adult, it's really not worrying."

"Goodbye uncle."

Lan Qiren hung up the video, and Lan Wangji clicked on the dialog box with Wei Wuxian to tell him the good news, but he hesitated for a while and decided to leave it as a surprise.

----------

Here Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian are still in a messy situation. A few days ago, they sent people to the location of the sender’s IP address in other provinces, but when they went, they found that it was just a private Internet cafe, and the environment was dirty. Poor, can't even tune out a monitor.The police sealed off the internet cafe, and brought the internet cafe's network manager back to the city for interrogation. Who knew that the network manager was so frightened that he cried before the questioning began. At that time, seven or eight people in the interrogation room were looking at this [-]-something old man. Cried and fell asleep.Only when someone later came to pick him up did he know that the network manager of this Internet cafe is the boss's son. He held his breath when he was born, so he had mental problems. Because he couldn't find a suitable job, he asked his son to watch over the private Internet cafe opened at home.Of course, there was no way to find out why, so the police station had no choice but to let him go, and the clue to the Internet cafe was also cut off.

Later, Jiang Cheng and the police station in the city came to monitor the Internet cafes along the road. A group of people stayed at the police station and watched for several days and nights, but they didn't find anything suspicious.This is too time-consuming and labor-intensive, Jiang Cheng suggested that the police station should only monitor Jiang's surroundings, and leave the rest to Jiang to find someone to deal with.After all, this matter has allocated too many people from the police station. Since Jiang Cheng proposed this, the police station agreed.

"Wen Chao will be invisible? I've checked the surveillance so many times and still haven't seen anything." Wei Wuxian was lying on the sofa with a deep-fried dough stick in the corner of his mouth, and he had been complaining all morning.Because of this shit, he hasn't had a good rest for a long time, and even had to cut off contact with Lan Wangji for a few days.

Next to Jiang Cheng's hand was a cup of soy milk, which had become cold after a long time.Last night, Wei Wuxian and Wei Wuxian stayed up late and checked the surveillance again quickly. The breakfast was brought by Lan Xichen, who came to visit Jiang Cheng. You rushed back.Wei Wuxian couldn't help but feel sorry for his brother's long road to chasing Jiang Cheng.

"You said there's no one to be found in this monitoring, so he doesn't live near the internet cafe, does he?" Jiang Cheng took a sip of soy milk, and realized that the soy milk was cold, quickly drank it up in two or three gulps.

"But I showed the photo to the owner of the Internet cafe, and said that I haven't seen Wen Chao around. Do you think Wen Chao has changed?"

"How can he change? The whole face?"

"What if we've been wandering outside for a long time, got tanned and lost weight or something. Shall we go over and see for ourselves?" Wei Wuxian finished eating the fried dough sticks. Obviously, such a small amount of food was not enough to fill his stomach. The biscuits he had stuffed in the end table drawer turned out.

"No, I'm afraid something will happen as soon as I go out." There have been a lot of things going on with the Jiang family recently. Jiang Cheng has already postponed several meetings that need to go out of the market, and he has to investigate this Wen Chao's matter again. His mental state is already very high. Worse.

"Hey, I don't believe it. This Wen Chao alone can do something to so many of us."

"He really can't do anything by himself." Jiang Cheng looked up at Wei Wuxian, "Did you forget how he escaped our surveillance and returned to China last time by relying on those lackeys left behind by the Wen Sect?"

"But didn't those people have been monitored by the four major groups again?" Wei Wuxian threw a bag of biscuits to Jiang Cheng, tore open the package and ate it first.

"Jiang's tree is very popular, and there are too many people secretly wanting to bring down Jiang's family. Let Jiang's own family members die and be injured first. Isn't this fulfilling the wishes of those who secretly watched the show? It's not easy for them to make a move on the surface, so it's most appropriate to let Wen Chao, who attacked the Jiang Corporation before, do this. Last time the Jiang Corporation reshuffled, some of the shareholders who were washed out probably held grudges, but there were too many of them, and we didn't If you can’t do it, you have to investigate and monitor them one by one.”

"Then let the Lan family and the Jin family help?"

"No way. This is the Jiang family's own business. It will be difficult if the Lan family and the Jin family intervene and implicate them."

The Nie family's company moved out of the city after the Wen's Group went bankrupt. Even if the three companies in the city had an accident, they couldn't rush over to help immediately.Moreover, the relationship between the Jiang family and the Nie family is mediocre, and it is not suitable for others to help with such matters. If something happens to the Lan family and the Jin family, the Jiang family will really be isolated and helpless.

"This Wen Chao is really unrepentant. Last time he was not caught, he should have been rolled away, but this time he dared to come out and make trouble. If he is really caught, I really want to kill him." Beat to death."

"Who wouldn't. It would be best to die."

After staying in the company to process some documents, Wei Wuxian went home to rest, and he didn't even have time to say good night to Lan Wangji, and as soon as he got home, he fell asleep and fell asleep. When Wei Wuxian woke up, it was already the first It's noon the next day.Wei Wuxian woke up and checked his phone. There was no news of Jiang Cheng's phone number, which meant that there was nothing wrong with Jiang's. He checked out the address book and wanted to call Lan Wangji, but after several calls, it was still turned off.Wei Wuxian calculated the time, and it should be around eight or nine o'clock in the evening at Lan Wangji's place. He thought it was because Lan Wangji went to bed early, so he didn't care.

After cooking lunch and cleaning the apartment, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, Wei Wuxian leaned on the sofa and watched TV for a while, and when he was sleepy, he turned to bed and fell asleep for a while.When I woke up, day and night turned upside down, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

"It seems that I've been really tired these past few days, and I've never slept so much before." Wei Wuxian rubbed his "gurgling" stomach, and opened the refrigerator to see if there was anything to eat.He hasn't been at home much this week, and he still found out the eggs for lunch, steamed some egg custard and made it with the rice, and when he looked for it at night, he really found nothing.Wei Wuxian hesitated for a while, he was so scruples that he was afraid that a large living person would starve to death, so he decided to go downstairs to buy something to eat.

"Hey Lan Zhan, why didn't you answer the call I gave you at noon?" Wei Wuxian was shopping in the supermarket downstairs, when his phone, which had been quiet all day, finally rang.

"I'm on a plane."

"On the plane? Where are you going?"

"I'm back home."

"What?! You went back to China? That's great! You won't go abroad after you come back!" Wei Wuxian was taking out money to pay, when his sudden voice startled the cashier.

"Just taking annual leave."

"Ah... I thought you wouldn't go abroad anymore, how long will you stay in China?"

Wei Wuxian walked into the building with his things, and found that the elevator was not working for some reason, and even the lights in the corridor were off, and the surroundings were pitch black.

There will still be a power outage, Wei Wuxian condemned the unreliable property in his heart, but he didn't realize that only their building in the whole community was out of light.

"One month."

"So you've got off the plane now?"

"Well, I'm going to your house."

"You didn't tell me in advance! I'll pick you up!"

"I wanted to surprise you, but still..."

"You still can't help but call me, right? I don't know how little you think about it~ Okay, I'll go upstairs first, hurry up and I'll wait for you at home!"

"it is good."

Wei Wuxian hung up the phone, and was looking down to turn on the phone's flashlight function to illuminate it, when suddenly a gust of hot air blew from the back of his neck, Wei Wuxian's heart trembled, and before he could turn around to see who was behind him, his waist and eyes hit him. Something stiff. With a sound of "Zi bang", a burst of numbness spread from the spine to the brain, Wei WuXian's eyes darkened, and he fell backward into someone's arms.
