Fangs

Mausoleum City.

Dark clouds rolled and the wind howled.A bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky above Mausoleum City, and the torrential rain was accompanied by the thunder that rolled across the sky and splashed on the ground.

The water flowed down the gutter along the cracks in the stone slabs of the sidewalk, and the world was filled with mist.

I don't know if it's because of the rain that the building built in the deep mountains and dense forests looks extraordinarily cold and gloomy.

Vehicles passed by the one-way road, making a clattering sound, the rain mixed with mud, and the mud was stained on the tires.

The black car stopped, and a man with a black umbrella who couldn't see his face got out of the car.Walked to the duty room where the door was still lit.

This place is really too weird. Through the thick black iron gate nearly three meters high, one can vaguely see the huge fountain in the center of the open space.In front of the building, apart from two stone roads, there are green lawns and tall sycamore trees on the edge of the wall.The whole building is completely a Gothic construction template, with a steeple, narrow windows, solemn shape, simple style, and looks majestic and imposing.But this does not prevent it from being ranked No.2 and occasionally third in the most wanted renovation building in the college vote every year.

Because the number one place is always the college's crappy library, and new students have to arrange sanitary sheets to clean the dust, mop the floor and so on, and they can't get away.The problem is that there are nine floors, and only the first and second floors have toilets. The most important thing is that there is no elevator.The reason for the beautiful name of the college is that the road to knowledge often needs to pay a price, and there is never such a thing as something for nothing.So this is also a system for the books on the seventh, eighth and ninth floors not to accumulate dust.

Probably because of the rain and lightning and thunder, the duty officer in the duty room was drowsy. The man knocked on the glass, raised the black umbrella, and revealed a slightly cold and handsome face hidden in the shadows.

The person on duty yawned and looked over in a daze, "Oh, Bai Chu, what's the matter?"

"I'm here to check something, please give me the registration form."

Although the staff on duty is still a little sleepy now, who makes this place often not come to this place for ten days and a half months?But the action was quick, and he immediately took out the registration book and pen, then opened the small window and handed them to Bai Ye who was standing under the eaves of the duty room.

Bai Ye registered his personal information, handed it back, and asked softly, "Is the household registration manager resting now?"

The staff on duty nodded, "It's okay, although there are quite a lot of information, you can just search the information you want to check on the control panel in the lobby on the first floor. However, we can't help you with permission issues."

Bai Ye smiled politely and said softly, "I understand."

He turned around and walked to the black door that was being drenched by the pouring rain, pushed open the small door on the left, and walked in.

·

"Aunt Dan, is uncle okay?"

"Oh, Xiaodong, what are you talking about when you come here? It's okay, what can I do, his body is strong, now he's fine, let's take a rest."

"I just heard about it. Aunt Dan, don't worry too much. The hospital's medical technology is quite good. In our team, we report here every now and then, and everything gets better very quickly."

"Okay, okay, you kid is just talking to please you. It seems to be raining outside, so you should go back quickly, before it's too late, you have to toss around when you get home."

"Okay, goodbye, Aunt Dan." Zhao Dongdong waved goodbye to Ms. Zhu Dandan, then turned out of the corridor of the inpatient department and turned into the down elevator.

The night was particularly dark because of the rain. It took about 10 minutes to get home from the city doctor because of the rain. It took more than half an hour to arrive. Fortunately, it is no longer the evening rush hour after get off work, otherwise it may take longer.

Zhao Dongdong stopped the car in the parking lot of the community, and then touched an umbrella from the back seat. Even so, the trouser legs were inevitably wet by the rain.

"Ding!"

The elevator door opened, and Zhao Dongdong held the dripping umbrella in one hand, and took out the key from his coat pocket with the other to open the door. The key was inserted into the lock and hadn't turned, but Zhao Dongdong suddenly raised his head and looked at the cat's eye on the door, his heart suddenly became irregular. The ground tightened, and the sound of his breathing seemed to disappear, but the rising and falling arc of his chest became larger.

He lowered his eyelids, his brows were slightly raised without any emotion, and there was a faint smile in his eyes.Then turn the key, slowly unlock the lock, and push the door open with a "squeak—" sound.

Zhao Dongdong did not change his shoes, but hung the key on the hook on the wall of the entrance. The living room was not lit, but the light coming from the downstairs of the community showed that the interior decoration was modern and simple in black, white and gray. The complete set of furniture looked brand new and beautiful. It's perfect, but although it's beautiful, it doesn't have the slightest popularity.There was a photo on the TV cabinet. The man in a well-fitting black suit with a gentle smile raised his hand slightly, one up and one down, as if resting on their shoulders. Unfortunately, the chair in front of him was empty.

"From the very beginning, the vast majority of people in the world have a sense of morality, justice, kindness, and compassion. Based on the maintenance of blood relatives, at least they can guarantee that walking in the world will not violate their inner principles. Of course, if this thing starts from It doesn't exist, so there won't be such a saying." A slender figure hidden in the junction of light and shadow, looking at the photo on the TV cabinet, said softly.

Zhao Dongdong seemed to find it interesting, closed the door behind his back, raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brows, took off his coat and hung it up, then walked to the sofa and leaned the umbrella against the armrest to drain the water, then sat down and asked with a smile, "No I know what you said didn't exist from the beginning, is it the so-called sense of moral justice or blood relatives?"

The figure turned his head, and it was Xie Jing.

Zhao Dongdong moved his shoulders, and there was a clear and crisp sound of bones rubbing under the shirt. He pointed to the seat opposite, which could be called polite, "Please sit down."

He has always been out of shape, but now it's different. It's hard to say whether it's a certain emotion or aura, and even his whole body has undergone a chilling change.Even the pupils became obscure, as if they were hiding blades, and when you looked at them, you couldn't hide even the slightest expression.

Xie Jing said, "Oh!", and sat across from him, "What should I call you?"

This point surprised him a bit, "I thought you should have found out?" He raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled softly, "I've heard the name for a long time, Mr. Huai Ge."

——I have heard about the name for a long time.

No one knew how ironic the specific meaning of these words was to Xie Jing.

It was as if a heavy bomb exploded in the void, and the lingering power of the shock spread around. After several seconds, Xie Jingcai smiled awe-inspiringly. There are so many people."

"No, no, no." Zhao Dongdong bent down slightly, raised his hand to cover his lips, his shoulders trembled with a smile, and then leaned back on the back of the sofa, "Mr. Huai Ge is a very attractive person, after all, with you I am afraid that Wei Yao will call you brother when he sees you. Even if he calls you brother, you can bear it."

Xie Jing didn't think this was a compliment, he shook his head slightly, "I'm not as good as you think."

He seemed to find it very interesting, "Be more confident in yourself. After all, if I were you, I wouldn't have the courage to go to Jin'an by myself more than ten years ago. But—" He paused, "I What went wrong?"

"I didn't doubt you at first, because you have no position. Your conditions are too good. So I can only use the most stupid way to associate from the beginning."

Zhao Dongdong nodded, raised his right hand and waved his palm, motioning for him to continue.

"I think it's strange that Zhou Man's death was just because the school had just started at that time, and she planned to repeat it, she must have the idea of ​​wanting to start again, so I found it strange that she would commit suicide. And the reason why Bai Ye decided to investigate this matter The reason is that a USB flash drive was found in Zhou Man’s mouth. Indeed, before that, we never considered why the deceased must have put the USB flash drive in, not someone else? Because If this is really the case, there are not many people who can do this silently. At that time, the people who came to carry the corpse——you were among them.”

"Of course, since you dare to let it go, you must take sure steps to avoid being discovered. So this point can be said to be unfounded. But you probably didn't think that there is no absolute If there is irrefutable evidence that the cause of suicide is abetment or involuntary behavior, the case cannot be filed, so you can only start elsewhere. This is the scene that I accidentally heard about Zhu Jianbin's case when I came home in the rain and took a taxi that night. After all, you It is clear that Zhou Man has something to do with this matter, even the girl who died next door to me a year ago is involved, and that Kuang Fei is actually yours, right?!" Xie Jing is not too sure about this, but this The timing of the person's appearance, now that I think about it, is indeed a bit of a coincidence.

Xie Jing paused and said, "According to the basic screening method, looking for motives and clues for relevant interpersonal and social relationships is the most basic way to handle criminal cases, so as long as we persist in handling it, we will definitely notice something is wrong."

Zhao Dongdong held his forehead and smiled bitterly, feeling a little helpless, "I really didn't want to tell you anything about this case, but I just wanted to remind you. After all, you had already entered the special situation team at that time. This is not what they would like to see. As for Zhu Jianbin That white gall pig is purely his own fault, and has nothing to do with me. Besides, Kuang Fei is not one of my people. He opened a bar in that area, so he is looking for connections. I will help. I sorted it out. So it's understandable to ask him for a favor. From the beginning to the end, it's a pity that Zhou Man is the girl, because she is the only one who can be more or less connected with you, so she was selected. Of course, I didn't choose it. As for who did it, you should be able to guess."

——Zou Xinwan has already confessed that he has never touched Zhou Man at all. Zhou Man has been with other people from the beginning to the end!And this person is the one who confronted you upstairs in Jin'an!

"As for the case of Tianzhu Mountain, it's even simpler." Xie Jing twitched his eyebrows and said, "You can't die three times, you don't involve guns, you don't involve drugs, and you won't be able to get into the Municipal Bureau at all. But didn't you happen to be dragging me at that time?" Do you want to go shopping?" As long as you grab a corner of everything, you can immediately peel off the cocoon and uproot the mystery hidden in the mist.

"Well, you are right." Zhao Dongdong spread his hands and admitted generously.

"Including when we found out the contact between the deceased and Jin'an, you told us the address and let Bai Ye and I go there. Although according to what Bai Ye said at the time, you found out the relevant information, but this is just what you said. I believe it's not just me, maybe even Bai Ye hasn't verified whether this information is true or not." Xie Jing looked down at the stagnant air in front of him, with a trace of hidden sadness and anger in his eyes.

"This matter?" Zhao Dongdong rarely frowned, "I just agreed to give Wei Yao a gift, and he wants to see you. I didn't expect this lunatic to attack you. I feel very sorry for this. Sorry, sorry." He sincerely apologized.

sorry?

Bai Ye was lying in his arms at that time, Xie Jing even felt that he could feel his blood draining bit by bit.After a long silence, he took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions again, stared at Zhao Dongdong's face, and asked slowly, "Do you know that you almost killed him? Haven't you considered that Bai Ye knew about it?" How disappointed will it be?"

"How should I put it?" Zhao Dongdong took out the cigarette and the lighter from his pocket, "Crack!" With a sound of ignition, it seemed that he was slowly suppressing himself from the sporadic temperature brought by that spark. Bitter taste, "Bai Ye is a very good person, whether he is a leader or a brother. He is not a capitalist leader who is very bureaucratic in the system and will always criticize and squeeze employees. You also know how good the welfare in the team is. I still remember the first time I came to Gonghai to look for him, I dragged a few big snakeskin suitcases, compared to reporting work, it was more like fleeing from famine, and the city bureau looked at me as crazy." Zhao Dongdong laughed, "Then Bai Ye came to pick me up. At that time, he had just finished a meeting. He wore a three-piece uniform, as handsome as he could be. He walked down from the gate of Gonghai City Bureau, his hair was like black ink in the sun. The same black, bright eyes, dark blue police uniform draped over his shoulders, blowing back with the wind, there is no flaw. Even I can't help but think in my heart, shit, my boss is awesome , so handsome that he has no friends!"

His tone of sincere praise, even Xie Jing could glimpse the handsome and clear appearance of that high-spirited man at that time from his words.

"Hahaha..." Zhao Dongdong laughed uncontrollably, and said, "Can you imagine him dressed like this, and then helping me carry the snakeskin bag? It's hard to see. Another time, it was our side and Yanjiang. The time we jointly handled the case, Bai Ye and I were supposed to lie in ambush on the zenith, lying on the other side of the window. I discussed with him to go quietly. As a result, I found that the glass he was lying on could be rotated on the central axis That kind, you know? I reminded him not to move around, or he would slide down. But I didn’t dare to speak too loudly, for fear of being heard. He didn’t hear clearly, so he leaned over and asked me what to say , I patted the window to show him, and then I just opened the window. As a result, he went down and took care of the two robbers. This legendary deed is still widely circulated. It's all thanks to me."

Zhao Dongdong, "Puchi—" said, "Another time, I was called over by the anti-pornography brigade to help, and then a young lady thought I was a bully, so she grabbed me and told me not to take her away, she didn't want to fine me .I haven’t dealt with this kind of situation before, so I let her go. When I went back to the Deng Bureau, I don’t like it, saying that I must be interested in sex. In the end, Bai Ye gave me a guarantee. I asked him if he believed me. Character, but that bastard actually said that it was because I couldn’t have such a long time, damn it!” He said so, but the smile on his brow could not be stopped, “How should I say it, talk to him In fact, we have known each other for quite a long time, and this period of time should be regarded as a memorable part of my life. But it is nothing more than that."

"That's why you found out that Bai Ye had rushed over that night, so you just ran away, right?"

Zhao Dongdong's heart was hit hard, with a tingling pain of numbness, "Yes, you didn't recognize me, that's because I'm not very familiar with you. But Bai Ye is different, if I stay around Dou, he will definitely find out that that person is me. Besides, I don't have to save Shi Ya, anyway, my employer is not her." He shrugged, very indifferent.

There was silence everywhere, Xie Jing was a little speechless.

"Why? You can live well without doing this, why do you do this?" Xie Jing obviously couldn't understand this, otherwise he wouldn't say that he didn't doubt Zhao Dongdong at the beginning.Because he has a good family, of course, when Xie Jing didn't know that he was not his own, Xie Jing thought so.In addition, he has a group of brothers and friends who are born and died, and a stable job, so he doesn't need to do these things to find a so-called way out for himself.

"You may not understand." He seemed a little regretful, "How should I put it, your previous life was a knife-edge life, so probably for you, the stable status quo is far more attractive than any power in the world , I shouldn’t be wrong about this, right?”

Xie Jing's chest rose and fell, as if an invisible hook was violently hooking the nerve endings, what should he say?Zhao Dongdong's analysis was really good.He really felt that living a safe and stable life was more difficult than anything else, and it was what he longed for in his heart.

Zhao Dongdong's eyes finally showed a slight sense of relief and self-mockery, and he said casually, "It seems that I guessed it right? So you see, for me, who has always lived a stable life, those things are like- —" He paused, thinking about his words, raised his eyebrows for a while, and spit out two words, "Drugs!"

Xie Jing looked at him in astonishment.

"Yes, it's drugs. After all, isn't it hard to satisfy people's desires?"

Bai Ye also said this when he was interrogating Zhu Jianbin. For some reason, when I heard it now, there was an indescribable sense of irony.

"And don't you all know? After all, I am not my own. Do I still think that after the two elders go west, the family property will be left to me? Compared with the grassroots employees who get their salary every month and wait for the quarterly allowance , I prefer to be a middleman, after all, it’s easy to make a difference.”

Xie Jing looked at him, and asked lightly, "When did you have contact with him?"

Zhao Dongdong probably felt that he had explained everything well anyway, and it was not bad, "It's too early, the first time we met was when I was eight years old."

Xie Jing was taken aback, if calculated according to this, they would have known each other more than ten years ago!

"No, I know what you're thinking, but it's not what you think." Zhao Dongdong raised his hand and pressed down to stop him, "It was just a meeting. I really got involved with him, it should be on June Years ago, when I was just transferred to the bioengineering class."

Xie Jing narrowed his eyes, with a strange look on his face.six years ago?He just escaped from that place at that time.

He was immediately rescued by Dai Ting, and then followed Dai Ting's side and became his thug.

"The bioengineering class mainly talks about the young researchers who are specially recruited. Those who know a little bit at the institute are all gray-haired old men. They are basically sent to Linggang to perform research tasks. Therefore, there is an urgent need to replenish young researchers. blood so that it can be cultivated into a figure who can conquer the world in the future. And I am very honored to be selected as one of them."

"You guys are mainly doing research?" Actually, Xie Jing could guess a little bit, but he wasn't sure.

"What else can it be, such as the bloodline function of the mixed blood. And how to extract the monster gene, so that it can be transplanted into the mixed blood, so that the blood becomes more pure and powerful." Zhao Dongdong sighed, "But this thing is not at all I can’t figure it out, but it’s quite effective to use blood as a drug, but the side effects are a bit big. You should know this, after all, isn’t that what Dai Ting did for a living in Jin’an at that time?!” Although it was a doubt words, but his tone was declarative.

The air seemed to be frozen, the city was covered with dark clouds, the raindrops kept beating the windows, all the furniture in the room seemed to be covered with a layer of gray veil, and gradually became blurred, but the outline of the two people looking at each other was still clear.

"So he came to you at that time, just to make a deal? Specialize in blood drug sales?"

"It's almost the same thing. He has basically mastered most of the trading and selling networks for hunting monsters. But after all, in this world, there are still a small number of mixed-races and monsters, and there are more people. To make money, you have to rely on people." Earn, do you think that’s the reason?” At some point, just talking, the cigarette in Zhao Dongdong’s hand had burned to the point where only the butt was left, and the long ash trembled with him, faintly tinged with a little red. Shimmer fell to the ground.

Some kind of cold guessing like a dark shadow at the bottom of the water gradually surfaced in Xie Jing's mind, "So you started to cooperate with him? Don't you think that..." Xie Jing's voice was difficult and hoarse, and he couldn't even think of how to describe it for a while. .Language seems pale at this moment.He paused for a long time before continuing, "Why do you want to do this?"

Zhao Dongdong put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, turned to look at Xie Jing, and asked, "Why not? I just provided him with a way to refine the blood potion, and by the way, help him research which kind of blood potion is effective for use It is more stable and the time limit is longer. You worked under him back then, and you should have learned that most of his business is exported, because it is not easy for Shendu and even the academy to find out. But the same Although Dai Ting was aware of these businesses in Jin'an, he didn't purify his technology, and he was just doing things in Jin'an. It's not difficult to understand that he can be targeted. My employer is indeed smart. That idiot will do a lot of business on behalf of the court."

It was as if the tide of fate swept across, engulfing everyone in it, unable to escape.

Xie Jing was like being immersed in ice water, from the nasal cavity to the throat to the lungs, it was filled with biting ice balls, even breathing hurt the nerves of the whole body.

Zhao Dongdong's eyes flashed with a mixture of mockery and pity, and he said, "So, you see, what was the reason for your desperate escape? If you followed him honestly, you might not be able to escape now You have already made a fortune, maybe even when I see you, I have to be polite?"

Xie Jing ignored his sarcasm and asked, "Then why did you come out suddenly?"

Zhao Dongdong tilted his head, "Do you know when the Special Intelligence Team was established and why?"

Xie Jing was stunned for a moment, and his pupils dilated sharply. The special situation team established a system to facilitate their handling of mixed-race jurisdictional matters, but this would also bring great interference to those so-called monster hunters.

In other words, if he can install his people in such an institution, it will undoubtedly bring great benefits in all aspects.Although Zhao Dongdong is only the second in command, in fact, Bai Ye trusts him very much, and is even willing to tell him anything.

"Hahaha..." Low laughter echoed in the room, Zhao Dongdong supported his forehead, even his shoulders were trembling, and it took dozens of seconds before he stopped laughing, and looked up at Xie Jing jokingly, "You really are I guessed it, then I will tell you one more thing." He tilted his head back, then raised his hand to caress the corners of his eyes, as if wiping away the tears from his laughter, "I actually didn't know that Bai Ye's parents were coming. "

Xie Jing's back was as straight as a sword halberd, but his elbows, shoulders, and even half of his body were trembling unknowingly under the windbreaker, and the muscles and bones of his fingertips covered by the cuffs protruded inch by inch.

——His goal from the beginning was not Bai Ye's parents, but Bai Ye.Indeed, at first, Xie Jing only considered that if something happened to Bai Ye's parents, then Bai Ye would inevitably have a rift with him.But if something happened to Bai Ye instead, as long as the people above investigate, they will be able to find out the existence of his strange identity immediately.As for Zhao Dongdong, not only is he fine, he may even be promoted directly!

Zhao Dongdong didn't seem to see Xie Jing's trembling, but said softly, "But when you came to find me today, I remembered all the things I had experienced with Bai Ye before, and suddenly realized that I was actually quite lucky that the person sitting in the car wasn't his."

Immediately afterwards, he took out the cup from the coffee table and poured two cups of cold tea, "Although it's already cold, but the condition is simple, please don't dislike it." He gently pushed a cup to Xie Jing's face, then lifted Taking another sip, he put down the glass again.

Indeed, it doesn't taste good when it's cold.
