Temporary Bodyguard

Di Chen put on some clothes casually, and rushed downstairs like his butt was on fire.It was pitch black outside, night blindness could only turn on the flashlight, and make do with the dim street lights.

The street is sparsely populated, only a drunk man wanders around, singing loudly as he walks: "To die is to love—"

Zhai Chen called an online car-hailing car, but no one took the order, so he could only stand on the side of the road and stop the night shift for a taxi.There are not many night shift taxis, and it takes about 5 minutes to catch one.He couldn't see very clearly, as long as it was a spot of light, he waved his hand.Fortunately, I was lucky, and it didn't take long to see a green light spot, which should be the "empty car" light of the taxi.

"Hey, you're blocking the way!" A drunken voice came from behind, reeking of alcohol.Di Chen turned his head and took a photo with his flashlight, only to find that it was a middle-aged bald man.

I don't know if I was laid off by the company, or my wife ran away with someone, and I looked unhappy.His eyes were dazzled by the flashlight, and he immediately yelled: "What kind of photo are you taking, you little bastard!"

The taxi stopped, and Zhai Chen was in a hurry to get in the car, too lazy to argue with the drunk.Unexpectedly, as soon as the passenger door was opened, the drunk slid into the back seat and lay still.

"I stopped the car first." Di Chen dragged him down.

The drunk man laughed, with his feet still hanging out of the car, he patted his stomach and let out a loud belch: "This car is mine now, drive!"

The taxi driver didn't want to pull such a drunk man, and he refused to start the car for a long time.

Zhai Chen thinks he is a good-tempered person, so maybe it's okay to encounter this kind of thing in normal times, but today is not normal!Taking a quick breath of oxygen, he grabbed the drunk man's ankle and dragged him down.

"Aww!" The middle-aged man screamed like a pig being killed.

Di Chen threw the man onto the sidewalk with one hand, ignored the man's more violent abuse, clapped his hands and got into the car and closed the door, and politely replied: "I'll kill you again."

The taxi driver didn't dare to look any further, he stepped on the accelerator and jumped out: "My little brother is quite strong, ahaha."

"It's okay, that's what I usually rely on for food," Di Chen said in a sinister tone, he was so anxious that he didn't bother to make jokes, so he directly threatened to prevent the other party from taking a detour, "Go to Yutang Bay, drive fast, there is something urgent."

"Okay." The driver didn't dare to think about which bowl of rice he ate, he deserved it very neatly.Regardless of speeding or not, he rushed up the elevated highway with a swish, turning the taxi into a midnight race car.

After getting out of the taxi, Zhai Chen ran all the way into the house.

Gao Yusheng was still sitting in front of the workbench, his face pale.Hearing the sound, he raised his head mechanically, and the moment he saw him, his eyes were obviously brightened.

"What's going on?" Zhai Chen walked over quickly, looked up and down by pressing his shoulders, made sure that he was not injured, and then looked around vigilantly.

The house remained empty, with no signs of being invaded.In the color printer on the table, there is a photo that has just been typed.Complicated programs are running automatically on the computer interface, and countless letters are jumping crazily.

"It's okay." Gao Yusheng shook the hand on his shoulder, as if he could draw strength from it, put his hand on the keyboard again and typed, "Someone sent me an anonymous email, and I'm tracking the source. "

Zhai Chen tore off the photo from the printer, took a closer look, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils.On the five-story office building, there are big red characters - "Gao Yuan", half of the word "Yuan" is not captured.Although the woman standing on the top of the building couldn't see clear facial features, he was sure that it was Gao Yusheng's mother - Ye Rong.

He often saw Ye Rong wearing this business suit, and it was his first impression of city work clothes.Clean, flat and decent, Auntie Ye likes this suit very much. She wears it every day when she goes out early and returns late. When she comes back, she will bring them all kinds of delicious food.Perhaps it was because of the reward of food that Zhai Chen looked at this suit very pleasing to the eye.

The scrolling interface on the computer stopped, and a red exclamation mark popped up.

"I didn't catch up." Gao Yusheng pursed his lips slightly.

"Since the other party dares to send it to you, they must be wary of your skills," Zhai Chen mentioned Gao Yusheng's wrist that was still typing on the keyboard, and said hoarsely, "Don't do it."

Gao Yusheng looked up at him, moved his bloodless lips, but said nothing.

"Get up, let's go to the bedroom and talk." Di Chen forcefully shut down the computer and pulled him away from the environment.

Gao Yusheng stood up obediently, but just as he stepped forward, his eyes went dark and he fell down.

Di Chen received it into his arms with swift eyes and quick hands: "Yu Sheng!" Probably his consciousness disappeared for a moment. After leaning on his shoulder, Gao Yusheng opened his eyes and insisted that he was fine and refused to go to the hospital.

Just now, in order to run faster, Zhai Chen inhaled oxygen on the road, but luckily it was not exhausted, so he simply picked him up.The lights in the bedroom were not turned on, and he walked towards the bed in the dark without holding anyone in his arms.When he reached the bedside, the oxygen was exhausted, and he fell into the quilt room with the person in his arms.

Just as he was about to get up, he was suddenly hugged by two arms that were clasping his neck, and stuck firmly to Gao Yusheng's body, making him unable to move.

"Don't make trouble." Di Chen didn't have much strength at the moment, and couldn't break free for a while.

"Did you see that photo?" Gao Yusheng refused to turn on the light, and asked Di Chen's ear in the dark.Holding him tightly with both hands, like a dying person holding the last straw, he would not let go no matter what.

"En." Seeing him like this, Zhai Chen could only relax his body and let him hold him.

Gao Yusheng's voice was still calm, as if he was talking about other people's affairs: "I used to always dream that I was standing on a tall building, and there were many people downstairs, and they told me to die. The psychiatrist said that it was caused by autism when I was a child. The dream repeats and doesn't make any sense."

"This psychiatrist is unqualified, he doesn't know how to interpret dreams." Zhai Chen joked, and didn't remind him of the leak.Earlier, Gao Yusheng had sworn that he was not autistic, you little stubborn donkey.

Gao Yusheng smiled softly: "It's my mother in the photo, right?"

Di Chen was deliberating and didn't know what to say. The scene in the photo was obviously not a "rooftop confession" or "conference speech", but a scene of suicide: "Yusheng..."

"is not it?"

"If I remember correctly, it should be." Zhai Chen felt that the arms around him were trembling slightly, and wanted to adjust himself and drag him into the bed, but he was suddenly hugged even tighter.

"I always thought it was my subconscious fear of heights, because I always dreamed of jumping off buildings because I was afraid of heights." Gao Yusheng's breath became extremely unstable, and he spoke angrily.

Before Zhai Chen could react, he seemed unable to control himself, and suddenly amplified his voice: "I just realized now that it's actually not me standing on the tall building, it's my mother! All the information I found said that she She committed suicide, but she didn't say she jumped off a building. And, I'm sure, I've seen this picture!"

"Heavenly gift!" Zhai Chen called out to him loudly, and turned on the overhead light with a wave of his hand.

The bright light made Gao Yusheng close his eyes, and the painful and helpless expression on Jun's face could not be hidden under the light.Like a small animal abandoned in a rainstorm, shivering wet in the bitter rain, if it doesn't get help, it will be swallowed by the endless darkness.

Seeing that his arms were relaxed, Zhai Chen immediately dragged him into the bed and hugged him tightly: "Don't be afraid, brother is here."

Regret two words, Zhai Chen now knows how to write.He shouldn't have left tonight, that's good, something will happen if he walks away.

"I'm not afraid..." Gao Yusheng raised his head, his uncontrollable expression hadn't fully recovered just now, and his brows were still frowning.

"Okay, don't be afraid." Teacher Zhai responded in a coaxing tone, pulling the quilt over him.Seeing the picture of his mother before his death in the middle of the night, anyone would be emotionally broken, let alone Gao Yusheng, a child who had psychological problems when he was young.

But now I can't continue to discuss this issue with him, Zhai Chen gently patted his back through the quilt: "Hey, I will teach you a way to deal with nightmares."

"what?"

"In the future, if you encounter danger in your dreams, just shout to the sky, 'Brother, save me', and I will wear a red cloak and fly over to take you away." These words were used by Zhai Chen to coax Zhai Mengmeng before. , after Xiao Zhai's experiment, it is proved that this method is worth a try.It is that the uncle in the dream often does not wear a red cloak, but wears the powder blue apron of the uncle in the kindergarten, which is not particularly heroic.

Gao Yusheng thought about Superman Brother Chen wearing a small apron: "..."

The childish reassurance was surprisingly effective for Gao Yusheng.His complexion was much better than before, and his lips were also colored.After laying in Zhai Chen's arms for a while, he was finally able to speak normally: "Gao Yuan used to be Ye Fengqiu's company, my mother standing on Gao Yuan's building, is it related to the accident in that mine..."

Gao Yusheng also told Di Chen about the news he heard in the detention center.According to what Lu Changhua said, it was probably because of an accident in Gaoyuan Mining many years ago, which led to the birth of a large number of orphans. Ye Fengqiu became the director of the orphanage out of guilt.

"Don't think about it yet," Zhai Chen wanted to touch his face, but when he thought of Gao Yusheng's thoughts, he turned a corner and rubbed his hairy head, "People are prone to anxiety at night, and most of the reasons they think about are extreme. So children should go to bed early to avoid crying."

Gao Yusheng was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and put his arms around his waist: "Are you leaving soon?"

Being asked such a question, Zhai Chen was really dumb for a moment.I warned myself in my heart that I should stay away, but my hands hugged him uncontrollably: "I'm not going anywhere, I'll stay with you."
