Ghostly Eyes [Tomb Raiders]

Li Qiu gasped in pain, lying on the ground, but there was no sound in his ears, but the cough was too shallow, it passed away so quickly that it was impossible to judge the identity of the other party.

After a while, the bodyguard spoke again, but this time the voice was much softer.

"Boy, we don't make it difficult for you. You call him now and ask him to come to Shang's house, understand?"

Li Qiu nodded with difficulty.

Soon, a mobile phone was stretched out in front of Li Qiu, and the bodyguard added: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you dare to say one more word, I promise you will make your life worse than death."

Blindfolded, Li Qiu whispered a series of numbers, and the bodyguard entered them in person.

The phone rang twice, and it was connected. A hoarse, sleepy male voice came from the opposite side: "Ali... what's wrong?"

Li Qiu coughed violently, and said intermittently: "Ah Jiu, it's me."

"..." There was silence on the other side.

"Ah Jiu, I'm with Shang's family right now... Cough cough, Master Shang said that he wants to see you and wants you to come to Shang's house alone."

"..."

In the small dungeon, only Li Qiu's intermittent and frivolous cough echoed, and the others were so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that the person on the other end of the phone would notice something.But the strange thing is that Li Qiulu continued talking for a long time, but Tong Jiu didn't answer a word.

The bodyguard was impatient, Li Qiu was talking to himself for a long time, and the person opposite was always silent, which made him unable to hold his breath: "Tong Jiu—hey, listen and talk!"

After a few more seconds, Ah Jiu's voice finally appeared as promised: "I'm listening."

"Just listen, then there's nothing to say." The bodyguard pushed Li Qiu away, and said in a conversation, "At 05:30 this afternoon, the Shang family's mansion is waiting for you."

But Ah Jiu said, "What if I don't go?"

"You..." The bodyguard almost choked. In the conversation he imagined, Tong Jiu really didn't refuse this one on the spot.

They... aren't they lovers?According to the investigation, the first time the missing Tong Jiu appeared in the public eye was with this kid. The two were lovers, inseparable and living together.Why do you look at it today, so it turns out to be so insignificant?

"You don't care about this kid's life at all!? If you don't come, wait for his body to be collected at sunset!"

"OK then."

Oh well……? ?The bodyguard was so angry that his nose was almost crooked. If it wasn't for the big man standing behind him, he really wanted to scold and scold the damned head of the Tong family regardless of his image.

Before the bodyguard could say anything else, the other party hung up the phone neatly.

WTF! ?

The bodyguard stared straight at the busy tone of "Dudu", and turned his head to see Li Qiu on the ground, and suddenly had a point to vent his anger.But before he could make a move, the "big man" who had been silent behind him made a gesture, signaling them all to back down.

The atmosphere of the dungeon suddenly became much more empty, and the bodyguards dispersed. Li Qiu pressed half of his face to the ground, clearly feeling that there was one person left behind.

"Your name is Li Qiu?" After a long time, the man spoke with a deep and pleasant male voice.

But just these four words fell on Li Qiu's ears like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, making his heart beat like thunder—this person is not Shang Yunkuang, nor Shang Wei, but Shang Fei, the young master of the Shang family. Jay.

Shang Feijie put down Li Qiu's unconscious hands, and wanted to remove his blindfold, but Li Qiu dodged back as if startled, and staggered away.

"What do you want to do."

Shang Feijie's hand froze in the air, but he didn't take it back: "I want to see your appearance."

Li Qiu glanced at his face, not facing him face to face: "What kind of information does the Shang family want? Since they have found out my relationship with Tong Jiu, don't you have a close-up photo?"

"There is a difference between a real person and a photo."

"I refuse." Li Qiu pressed his body against the wall, and calmly distanced himself from Shang Feijie: "Master Shang must not have any shady privacy preferences, to be so interested in a man's appearance." interested in."

"You don't have to provoke me, I just don't watch it."

Shang Feijie sighed and stood up, everyone said that the eldest son of the Shang family is the most like Shang Wei, but only those who really know him know that Shang Feijie has not completely inherited his father's aggression without anger and prestige, or perhaps inherited , but cleverly hidden under the dignified elegance of a handsome young man.

After a pause, the atmosphere in the dungeon eased a little, and Shang Feijie spoke first: "Do you know, I have a younger brother."

Li Qiu curled his lips without emotion: "What a coincidence, I have an older brother."

"But my brother died."

"Unfortunately, my brother is still alive and well."

Shang Feijie's eyes fell on Li Qiu's face and body, as if he wanted to find out the similarities and commonalities with the black and white portraits on the tombstone from such a direct view.

So in the next second, Shang Feijie simply tore off Li Qiu's blindfold.

In the backlit dungeon, there was a hazy halo in the air. Shang Feijie stood in front of the door with his hands behind his back, patiently waiting for Li Qiu to endure the sourness of seeing the light for the first time, and tremblingly opened his eyes.

Those were a pair of red and beautiful eyes full of vigilance and alienation.

"See it? Satisfied?" Li Qiu shook the iron chain on his wrist mockingly, and said, "It's better to be a good man, Young Master Shang, and remove the things in my hands."

"You know it's impossible."

"Humph."

Shang Feijie raised his eyebrows: "Huh, what do you mean, are you expressing contempt for me?"

Li Qiu raised his head coldly: "The one who arrested me was Master Shang, and the one who imprisoned me was also Master Shang. The young master Shang is in vain bearing the title of the current head of the family, but in the end he dared not disobey the old man's casual order, of course I despise it. "

Another provocation.Shang Feijie found that the young man in front of him seemed to maintain a subtle hostility towards him. In addition to disgust and vigilance, the eyes he looked at him also contained some intense and depressive emotions, borrowed from the cold stab of the dialogue , revealed from time to time.

"Don't talk about brothers anymore, let's change the subject and talk about Tong Jiu, shall we?"

Hearing this, Li Qiu's eyes grew more wary.

"I think you already know that the Shang family needs to meet Tong Jiu, not only because of the conflict that happened in the Yuan Chaodou last time, but also because he was the last contact with Changshengqi in the Southern Diandou. In fact, this meeting happened as early as the accident in the Diannandou It's time to realize it. But this year, we haven't looked for Tong Jiu again, do you know why?"

Shang Feijie paused intentionally, and then said: "Because Tong Jiu died, all of us saw with our own eyes that Tong Jiu died in the Dinan Dou."

Li Qiu raised his head and met Shang Feijie's eyes.Shang Feijie took a step closer, and the shadow covered Li Qiu on the ground: "But what we have seen so far, it doesn't seem to be the case. The appearance of Tong Jiu this time was nearly a year after the accident. Where he went, what happened, and why he came back to life in a year, we don't know anything. The only thing that is certain is that this time in this world, there is an extra person beside him out of thin air—— That's you."

"So, you are the real key to unraveling Tong Jiu's mystery. How could the patriarch of the Tong family, who has always been a loner, have an extra follower by his side? No, it's not a follower, but a lover, right?"

Silently staring at each other, exchanged under the halo of the transom.

"It's not as complicated as you said," Li Qiu said bluntly, "I met him and fell in love with him, that's all."

"Meet? Where did you meet?"

"A café."

"And before that?"

"I don't know where he is either."

Shang Feijie examined Li Qiu's expression over and over again, but Li Qiu's calmness made him feel invulnerable.

True, false, how to believe.

"You... are indeed qualified to be his lover." After a long time, Shang Feijie finally put away his questioning posture: "But there is one thing I want to remind you, my father arrested you to lure Tong Jiu, but if he fails to When you arrive as promised, you will no longer have any use value. At that time... I'm afraid your end will be miserable."

"How miserable, did you kill me?" Li Qiu asked suddenly, with a faint interest on his face that was completely different from fear, "Although it is a society ruled by law, the dignified Shang family wants to get rid of an ordinary person quietly. , it should be easy."

Provocation, another provocation.

Shang Feijie didn't talk to him any more, and closed the cell door behind his backhand.

"Master! How's the situation!"

As soon as Shang Feijie came out, the bodyguards waiting outside greeted him one after another. Shang Feijie was still immersed in the conversation with Li Qiu, meditating silently, and everyone looked at each other, not daring to disturb him casually.

"That phone call, where is the number that he was asked to call Tong Jiu earlier?"

Immediately, a bodyguard handed over a mobile phone with a long mobile phone number displayed on it.

"Go and check immediately, the source and user of this number, and preferably the communication records and address."

"The young master is suspicious. Didn't the phone call just now be for Tong Jiu?"

"I can't believe that Tong Jiu will be indifferent to his life and death anyway,"

"... But young master, the time may be a little too late." The bodyguard said truthfully.It's nothing to use the relationship to check the number, but the time agreed with Tong Jiu is at 05:30 in the afternoon. In order to deal with possible conflicts, the villa has already begun to ambush in full swing.

"Let's look it up first, and we'll talk about the rest later. I always have a bad feeling that this Li Qiu...may be more troublesome than Tong Jiu."

+ + +

In the mansion, Shang Yunkuang leaned on a cane, and climbed the stairs not very neatly but very quickly.

"Hey Uncle Yun, why are you here? Aren't you in the hospital? The gunshot wound on this leg hasn't healed yet. Slow down."

"Where is Tong Mei? I heard that Tong Mei is coming!"

"In the master's study, the master is talking to him."

Shang Yunkuang was about to break into the study on the second floor without saying a word, but the bodyguard at the door naturally stopped him, Shang Yunkuang straightened his neck and shouted: "Master! Please let me in, Master!"

Shang Wei's response quickly came from the door, and the bodyguards then put down their hands.

"master!"

Shang Yunkuang ran in sweating profusely, the first thing he saw was Shang Wei, the master of the Shang family, who was sitting on the sofa, and standing beside the sofa was Tong Mei, who was traveling with him in Inner Mongolia.I haven't seen him for a while, but Tong Mei is still wearing a black hood, the shadow covers half of his small face, and he leans lazily on the bookcase, as presumptuous as ever.
