Every following Friday, after school in the afternoon, Gu Yantang would wait in front of Wen Shu's house with the groceries he bought on time.

During the second visit, Wen Shu didn't work overtime and returned home at 05:30.As soon as Gu Yantang rang the doorbell, someone opened the door for him, and he was very happy.

On the third Friday, Gu Yantang still didn't say hello in advance.Wen Shu worked overtime that day, and he struggled all afternoon, should he tell him what time to get off work? He didn't want the children to wait for a long time. Whose time is not time?

But if he really sent a message, the child told him that I didn't plan to go to your place, so what should I do? Wouldn't that be self-indulgent again?

After struggling for a few seconds, Wen Shu decided to send the edited message. "Working overtime, I won't be there until at least eight o'clock."

Gu Yantang replied almost instantly: "Okay".

Wen Shu faintly felt that something was wrong, but every time the child came over, he happily cooked, washed dishes, and cleaned the room for him when he left, and he didn't say anything beyond the limit.

As the saying goes, you don't hit someone with a smiling face when you reach out your hand, not to mention that Wen Shu only has a hard mouth and a cold face, but his heart is actually quite soft.Se Li Nei Ren said it was him.

Gu Yantang is so kind to him, even a fool can feel it, but why is he so kind to him?Wen Shu was a little uncertain.

Wen Shu once wanted to ask around, but Gu Yantang is smart. He usually talks a lot, but he won't reveal a single word of his true thoughts to you.

Seeing that Gu Yantang really doesn't regard himself as an outsider anymore.

I think it was because of the access control of the dormitory when I first came to live in his house, but today I obviously didn’t work overtime, and it was only 08:30 after dinner.

He was sweeping, mopping, and running around in the room again, with a full sense of presence. You said he worked so hard, should you let him go immediately after finishing the work?Is it a bit too much of that.

But as long as he doesn't mention it, Gu Yantang will never mention the matter of leaving.

It's April, it's already spring, but in April in T City, the cold spring still occurs from time to time, for example, it's still quite cold today.

Wen Shu looked at the thin air-conditioning quilt on the sofa, had an idea, and hinted: "Hey, will you be cold when you sleep at night?"

Gu Yantang, who was mopping the floor, agreed without raising his head: "There will be a little bit in the middle of the night."

"Do you think this will catch a cold? There are so many flus in spring..." Wen Shu thought about trying to make the process of expelling people less obvious and humane.

The child followed his words and continued: "Do you have any extra quilts at home?"

"No." Wen Shu thought that he should retreat in spite of the difficulties.

"Then you—" Gu Yantang just dragged the floor to Wen Shu's feet, so Wen Shu just lifted his foot, unexpectedly Gu Yantang's head also moved towards him, because they were too close, Wen Shu instinctively dodged, The child's center of gravity was unstable and he was about to fall down.

Seeing this, Gu Yantang immediately stretched out his right hand, hugged his waist forcefully, and said in a joking tone, "Do you want me to sleep with you?"

Wen Shu was hugged by his waist, looked down on by him condescendingly, the distance was so close, and the smell of male hormones made him stunned for a moment, his mind froze for several seconds, and then he pushed him away. "Go back to the dormitory and sleep!"

Seeing this, Gu Yantang immediately threw down the mop, at a loss what to do and admitted his mistake: "Wen Shu, are you angry?"

Because he was really angry at this time, even the word "Wen Shu" in his mouth became a reason to make him even more angry.

He was obviously much older than him, but when Gu Yantang was unfamiliar with him at the beginning, he called him Prosecutor Wen, and after getting acquainted with him, he always called him by his first name, and never called him brother.

Seeing Wen Shu still had a cold face, Gu Yantang didn't know what to do, he stood there alone, scratching his head in a daze.

In fact, Wen Shu didn't really want to drive him away, at least not tonight.

He beckoned him to sit down, and then asked, "Can't you sleep well in the school dormitory? Why do you come here every weekend?"

Gu Yantang sat down next to him, and saw that he was shaking his shoulders and neck unnaturally, so he volunteered to give him a massage.

So while helping him press his shoulders, he explained: "There are four people in our dormitory, and there are three locals. They go home every weekend. I feel lonely in the dormitory by myself. I like your place very much."

People in T City have a little love for home in their bones. At best, it is called relocating to the land, and at worst, it is called not thinking about making progress.That's why the locals are reluctant to go to universities in other places. If they believed what Gu Yantang said, it would be great if they understood it in this way.

Wen Shu did not expect that his empty house would also become a place where a homeless child seeks the warmth of a home.

In fact, the child is quite pitiful.

Under such psychological control, after Wen Shu got off work on Thursday, he went shopping in the supermarket and unknowingly bought a set of pajamas and a quilt for the second bedroom for Gu Yantang.After I bought it, I piled it on the bed, and when he came on the weekend, I cleaned it up by myself.

Before going to bed at night, I saw some silly questions sent by Gu Yantang, such as some strange case studies in the law school class.

He'll even post some philosophical questions.For example, the classic question of "where do you come from, where are you going, and who am I" is the kind that makes you dizzy at every turn.

Wen Shu's comment on this is: I'm still in adolescence, so I still have so many questions about myself and the world.It is precisely because there are so many doubts that the eyes are still clear.

But I am not. When I first started working, I was full of enthusiasm. Of course, this enthusiasm mainly came from the decades-long red revolution education of veteran prosecutor Wen Shengli.

Wen Shu remembers that the first novel he read when he was in elementary school was "Red Rock" about Sister Jiang and Little Luobotou.

After growing up, he followed the blueprint drawn by his father step by step, and became a prosecutor after finishing his graduate studies.

Although he was serious about his work, he was self-denying and dedicated to public service, and even won the advanced worker in the district twice, but Wen Shu still couldn't find Wen Shengli's passion for the work of prosecutors from the bottom of his heart, like a sense of mission.

When working in a criminal investigation position, I come into contact with all kinds of strange people and cases every day. Those people are the so-called "bad guys" in people's mouth.

Some people commit crimes because of compulsion. For example, a woman who has been subjected to domestic violence by her husband for many years is forced to kill her husband who has been abusing her. Wen Shu can understand.

But some people can't find a reason for their crimes, as if they were born for crimes, so they are called "antisocial personality".

Some cases are so weird that you wonder if there is any logic in the real world.

After a year of anti-corruption work, it opened his eyes even more.The mayor of a small district may have several villas at home, and most of the children of these people will emigrate overseas.

And sometimes the clues are obvious, but after checking and checking, the investigation is not allowed.

There are countless gray areas, and forces representing the interests of all parties are intricately intertwined.

Wen Shu often has the idea that the whole society seems to be controlled by an invisible net.

Every time the case comes to a critical point, you know very well that it is screaming at you secretly, but you can't find where it is on the surface.

During that time, Wen Shu often had nightmares.Whenever I can't figure it out, I will think of the oath I swore on the day I first joined the job, "Maintain fairness and justice, and maintain the unity of the legal system", but does fairness and justice really exist?

Later, Wen Shu and Wen Shengli had a heart-to-heart conversation.Wen Shu told him that he had the idea of ​​quitting his job as a prosecutor and becoming a lawyer.Wen Shengli persuaded him to continue working and let him stick to his ideals and beliefs.

Wen Shu wanted to say that he didn't actually have any special ideals or beliefs, and all along, he just wanted to fulfill his father's expectations.

What Wen Shengli said that day left a deep impression on him.

He said: "Everyone who studies law always has a dream of fairness and justice in his heart. I am sure that every case I handle is correct, and most of the things I do are meaningful, so although my Compared with the illegal income of those corrupt officials, the salary is really low, but it can still bring me a strong sense of job satisfaction.”

Mr. Wen Shu felt that his father was a hopeless idealist in his bones, so ideal that he was a bit out of tune with the bleak reality of this society.

So this is why, as a college student in the 80s, he has not been promoted and is now just an ordinary prosecutor.

Wen Shu thought about it, even if he worked hard all his life, he would probably be like Wen Shengli in the end.

Wen Shu asked himself that he was not a very ambitious person, because he didn't have this gene in his bones, but he could see what he looked like when he was retired when he was in his 20s. Looking at it this way, he felt a little sad.

But this kid named Gu Yantang is different, he is obviously a genius in computer, if he didn't choose the major he is best at, why would he risk his life and apply for the most tiring major in the university - the law department?

Although smart people can make achievements in whatever they do, if they can learn a major that interests them and can maximize their potential, it is the correct way to make life interesting.

Realizing that she had already started to worry about him, Wen Shu felt a little uncomfortable.

For a moment of drowsiness when he was about to fall asleep, Wen Shu suddenly realized that he was looking forward to this child who came to visit every week.Do you like him?

He is good-looking, tall, handsome, and caring, but he is much younger than himself, and his life experience is more complicated.

I grew up in a single-parent family, and I know that I also have many such and such stinky problems.

An orphan whose parents both died, grew up in a bad environment, so it seems understandable that he has various problems.

The reason why he is so kind to himself is probably because no one cares about him and he lacks love.If someone treats you a little bit better, you should be grateful to Dade to reciprocate.

Gu Yantang was like this to Lin Hao before, and it is probably the same to himself now.Thinking about it this way, it probably makes sense for me to be kind to myself who seems a little too much and is a little bit deliberately pleasing.

In this way, if I don't have any brothers or sisters, I should consider myself a younger brother.

Before going to bed, Wen Shu was lying on the bed, and Mr. Rui sent him another photo of a cocktail.

Gentle strings: "Why drink? Are there any troubles?"

Mr. Rui: "No, a colleague got divorced and his wife cheated."

Gentle string: "My deepest sympathy." Wen Shu thought to himself, I always heard that men are easy to cheat, are women now so unreliable?

Thinking of Mr. Rui's 30-year-old age, Wen Shu tentatively asked, "Will your family force you to go on a blind date? Will it be a lot of pressure?"

Mr. Rui: "No, I came out straight away when I was 16."

"16 years old, you are so brave." Wen Shu thought, I am 27 years old and I dare not come out.

Mr. Rui: "Yeah, because I met my first love that year."

Gentle string: "Then you must be very happy."

Mr. Rui immediately made a shy expression. "To be precise, it's a secret love. People may not know it until now."

Wen Shu: "Then why didn't you tell me?"

Mr. Rui: "That man is so outstanding, and he is several years older than me. I'm afraid he might look down on me."

? ? ?Wen Shu didn't know why he suddenly thought of Gu Yantang, and thought, anyway, Mr. Rui is far away in Beijing, and he is not in the circle of friends, so he asked: "Do you also think Wangnianlian is unreliable? After all, there is a gap between three years and one generation. "

Mr. Rui: "There is nothing unreliable. The sky is big and the earth is big, and love is the biggest. People like us can even have a different gender from the average person. Why do we care so much about age?"

Wen Shu replied, "Yes, what does Mr. Rui do?"

"Professional moving bricks."

Wen Shu: "..."

Mr. Rui: "But I guess you do work related to the law."

! ? ?Wen Shu thought to himself how do you know.

Mr. Rui: "Because I am a professional magician."

Wen Shu just chatted with such an unreliable magic stick until he fell asleep.
