The professional quality of the male protagonist

Chapter 37 The Past and the Killing Ghost

However, the case of underage abduction and trafficking is really difficult to investigate. After Zhang Xuan passed by for about a month, no results were found.In the end, I had to find a place to settle down the child first, and began to receive regular psychological counseling.

Qian Fan was also convicted, but he was sent to a detention center, and his father was given a heavy sentence for abduction and trafficking.

One month after the incident, Li Yancheng's magazine company began to promote winter tourist attractions. Therefore, as one of the few photographers in their magazine, Li Yancheng inevitably began to get busy. The major tourist attractions in several cities around Li Yancheng He has traveled all over the place, and he took pictures of all kinds of winter scenery in every scenic spot, and then sent them back to the magazine.

However, City G is an offshore city, so the autumn and winter seasons here are not very obvious. Although it is already winter in this city, there is no winter mood at all.Everywhere is green, as if it is still in summer.

Li Yancheng had studied in this city for several years, so he was used to the climate here and didn't think there was anything special about it.

But the magazine office is not satisfied with this plain winter scenery, what their magazine office pursues is the unique features of the tourist attractions, such a featureless place like this naturally cannot catch the eyes of the magazine office, Li Yancheng is among the top few people After discussion, he was sent to the Northeast region where the winter scenery is colder and clearer.

The place Li Yancheng was sent to was already covered with ice sculptures, the sky was covered with snowflakes, and the street was full of people wearing thick padded jackets.

Don't say that these scenery are specially selected scenic spots, even some scenery on the side of the road can become a unique scenery.

This scenery greatly met the current needs of the magazine, so Li Yancheng did not spend too much time looking for some special tourist attractions, but started to shoot the surrounding street scenes.

The approachable street photos are, to some extent, also a characteristic of a city’s attractions.

The person who accompanied Li Yancheng this time is An Xiang. An Xiang has been working in a law firm since he returned to China. He is usually not very busy, but once he gets busy, he is always free to go home sooner or later. This time, An Xiang happened to be free, so he accompanied Li Yancheng to come here to appreciate the winter characteristics of this eastern city.

An Xiang is a native of G City. He has always remembered that autumn is just adding a few more clothes. He has never seen snow, and he has never even seen the real cold. This time, Li Yancheng was arranged to come After entering the city, I immediately trembled and didn't dare to step out of the hotel.

Zhang Xuan has been working in the police station all the time, so he naturally doesn't have time to accompany Li Yancheng to walk around outside. Over the years, he has already gotten used to Li Yancheng going out alone. This time, with An Xiang accompanying him, although he felt a little worried, he was also more worried than before. It's a lot more comfortable, and it's better to have someone to take care of than no one around.

Liao Qun, who had stayed at his house for nearly a month, looked at Li Yancheng for a while after hearing that Li Yancheng was going to another city, and then packed up his things and left Li Yancheng's house the next day. Farewell to anyone.

Even if it was Li Yancheng, he never said a word about leaving, let alone where he would go after leaving this time.

Just like when he came, he disappeared without a trace.

Li Yancheng knew from the very beginning that he came here to find him not because he wanted to stay with him for a long time. Liao Qun came here purely to express the depressed emotions in his heart. Now that his mood has calmed down, he naturally has no need to stay. There is no plan to stay.

Liao Qun was different from him, he was a very cheerful person, he couldn't stand Li Yancheng's silent temper and routine way of life.

It is impossible for him to stay by Li Yancheng's side all day and become a boring gourd together with Li Yancheng.

Liao Qun's departure immediately emptied the house, but it's a pity that Li Yancheng didn't stay for a few days before leaving the house again and going to another place.

This time they are traveling by air at public expense, and the itinerary has already been booked.

Traveling, An Xiang has long been used to this and is not very excited. Li Yancheng also kept silent until he got on the plane. His face was very ugly. An Xiang didn't notice it at first. I asked the flight attendant for a plastic bag and started vomiting.

Li Yancheng once suffered damage to the soft tissue in the ear bone due to an accident. An Xiang has only heard Li Yancheng talk about this matter a few times. An Xiang is not very clear about the exact location of his injury. He only knows about Li Yancheng's balance ability Very bad, so for transportation such as planes and trains, he is usually more prone to motion sickness than ordinary people.

After Li Yancheng got on the plane, he already knew that he would definitely get motion sickness. He had already prepared some water. When he vomited and his stomach was empty, he carefully drank some water to relieve his fatigue. Seeing this, An Xiang was helpless , He didn't think of this matter before, so he didn't have time to take any defensive measures.

When on the plane, An Xiang was only concerned with taking care of Li Yancheng, and didn't think about the temperature difference between the two places at all. After getting off the plane, An Xiang immediately rubbed his arms together.

There was snow floating outside the airport, and the white flowers were very beautiful, but it was not only the snowflakes but also the icy air that came together.The cold came, and the snowflakes all over the sky brought goose bumps.

He opened his mouth to breathe, and the mist exhaled from between his nose and mouth was all white. This was the first time he had seen such a large amount of snow. Although it was not lightly frozen, he was also very excited.

"How do we get to the hotel you booked?" An Xiang asked.

At the airport, he didn't find any direction signs. He looked around in a daze, not understanding how Li Yancheng planned to get to the hotel they had booked before.

Li Yancheng had been traveling around in the past few years, and he was already used to various situations, so he pulled his suitcase and took An Xiang out of the airport familiarly, and then walked to the bus stop next to the airport.

I bought a ticket at the station next to the airport, got on the train and changed trains, and finally arrived at the hotel booked by the magazine.

The hotel is not very big, but it is also a good hotel, small and medium.

After entering the hotel, Li Yancheng took out the voucher of his online order and handed it to the waiter, in exchange for a room card for a double room.

This time Li Yancheng came out to take photos as a task assigned by the company, so all the accommodation expenses were reimbursed by the company, but because An Xiang came with him, an extra expense was added, so all his expenses were accounted for separately. The portion is paid for by themselves.

After entering the door, An Xiang rushed into the room immediately. The first thing he did was to look for the heater. After turning on the heater, he seemed to be alive again.

An Xiang put down the luggage in his hands, and then took off the thick and outrageous coat.

His hands and feet were already trembling from the cold, and as soon as he took off his clothes, he immediately lay down on the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt like a rice dumpling, but his mouth didn't stop, he trembled so much that his teeth were chattering and said: "Oh my God, Why is it so cold here? It's so cold... What on earth is your magazine thinking, and you are allowed to come to this kind of place to suffer."

Li Yancheng didn't say a word, he entered the room calmly, put down all the luggage, and then pulled An Xiang's luggage aside and put it away, then he took off his heavy coat and put it on the hanger.

Li Yancheng went into the bathroom and washed his hands and feet with warm water, and his whole body became warm immediately.

An Xiang covered himself in the quilt for a while and felt that his hands and feet were still cold, so he couldn't help but want to talk to Li Yancheng so as to divert his attention.

"You're going to stay here for a few days this time. If I had known it would be so cold, I wouldn't have come. It's still fun in G City. It never snows in G City."

Li Yancheng finally took a look at him, then Li Yancheng sat on the bed, and he rummaged through the bedside table for a while.

He easily found what he wanted. It was a map of tourist attractions. Basically, every hotel would put such a map. Most of the tourist attractions have a cooperative relationship with the hotel, and the hotel placed advertisements for them. A certain fee is charged.

"I'm going to a place tomorrow." Li Yancheng said suddenly while looking at the brochure in the instruction area of ​​tourist attractions.

"Where are you going? Be careful by yourself. I won't go. The weather is too cold. I'll stay here with you. We'll go back sooner when you're done." With some retreat, he didn't know that it would be so cold here.

Before coming here, the city of G was still sunny, and the average temperature was around [-] to [-] degrees. Although some people had started to wear overcoats, a single piece of clothing was fine, but compared with here, there is no comparison at all. .

When he was abroad, the surrounding environment was also very warm. This was the first time he had experienced such cold weather.

But Li Yancheng spoke again at this time and said, "I wanted to take you with me."

An Xiang was a little surprised when he heard this. This was the first time that Li Yancheng offered to take him somewhere.

But think about it the other way around, although Li Yancheng usually has a very dull personality, but when he also has a childlike heart, maybe this time he is playing with him like before!

An Xiang thought about the things that Li Yancheng had played on him before, and his heart was shaken. He asked, "Where are you going? If you are going to take pictures somewhere, then forget it. I'll just stay here."

Li Yancheng put down the travel guide in his hand, looked back at An Xiang, he nodded after thinking about it, and didn't continue talking about this matter.

That night, the two of them slept peacefully with the heater in the same room.

It's okay to turn on the heater, it's not as cold as outside, but An Xiang couldn't hold back his shivering and hid on Li Yancheng's bed after sleeping until midnight.

Before dawn the next morning, Li Yancheng had already searched out all the things he needed from the luggage. An Xiang was sleeping in a daze at that time, and he didn't see what Li Yancheng was searching for. After taking a nap, he continued to sleep.

When he woke up in the morning, he realized that Li Yancheng was no longer in the house, but Li Yancheng's video camera remained where it was.

An Xiang raised his eyebrows and took out his mobile phone from under the blanket to call Li Yancheng. After waiting for a long time, the other party answered, but there was no sound from the other side. An Xiang was already used to Li Yancheng's appearance, so he took the initiative to ask : "Didn't you go to take pictures? Why didn't you bring the camera over there?"

There was wind from the other side of the phone, An Xiang listened carefully for a while before he recognized Li Yancheng's voice, he said: "I didn't go to take pictures today, I will go tomorrow, it's snowing here today so it's not convenient to take pictures."

An Xiang kicked off the quilt, ran to the window and opened the curtains to look out the window.

Sure enough, the entire ground of this city was painted white overnight, and white paint kept falling from the sky, coating everything with a layer of white.

An Xiang was a little excited. It was his first time seeing snow. Although he was very afraid of the cold, it didn't affect his love for snow.

"Where are you, it's snowing so hard today, why don't we find a place nearby to drink tea and sit for a while!" An Xiang said excitedly, he had already forgotten the fear of the cold at this moment, only thinking about It's good to go out with Li Yancheng to see the snowflakes.

The wind continued to sound over there, and after a while, Li Yancheng's voice came over, and he said, "...I'm at the cemetery."

An Xiang, who was still very excited at first, fell silent immediately after hearing this, and he was a little uneasy holding the phone.

cemetery?

How could Li Yancheng run to the cemetery so well!

Although Li Yancheng didn't say anything yet, An Xiang felt a little uneasy in his heart. Li Yancheng always had something to hide from him, so every time Li Yancheng said something he couldn't understand, An Xiang immediately wondered whether the other party was in danger .

After being silent for a while, when An Xiang spoke again, his tone of excitement was gone, but with a touch of worry, "Why did you go to the cemetery?"

Because of the heavy snowfall, the signal on their side is not very good. When talking, I always feel that there is a rustling sound in the voice, which is the sound of electronic interference. The snow is not very heavy now, otherwise the signal may have been cut off. up.

Li Yancheng on the other end of the phone didn't answer. An Xiang took off the phone and looked at it. The signal was already a little dissatisfied. He wondered if the sentence just now was not conveyed to Li Yancheng because of the dissatisfaction of the signal. Then he put the phone to his ear and said to Li Yancheng on the other end, "Wait for me, I'll go right over."

This time Li Yancheng didn't stay silent anymore, he readily reported an address to An Xiang, and then hung up the phone.

After An Xiang put on enough clothes, he mustered up the courage to walk out of the hotel gate.

He hailed a taxi, and then reported an address to the driver. The driver seemed to be very familiar with the route here, and drove around in a circle, and stopped outside a community gate not long after.

An Xiang quickly took out the address that Li Yancheng had sent him before, and gave it to the taxi driver, asking him to show him the way.

Maybe it was because of the bad business due to the heavy snowfall, the taxi driver patiently showed An Xiang the way, and told him that the community on this side used to be the place where the police lived, and it was very easy to find, but now the police are all It has been moved to a new accommodation area, and this area has gradually become a place where some elderly people often live.

After hearing what the driver said, An Xiang was very puzzled. He didn't understand what Li Yancheng was doing here?

After entering the community, he easily found the small coffee shop that Li Yancheng mentioned. This coffee shop is not big, on the contrary, it is very small, and the decoration is not exquisite, and most people will not notice it on the side of the road.

It was such a small shop, and Li Yancheng was sitting outside the window looking at him from the outside.

Inside the house, Li Yancheng's exhaled gas sprayed on the glass window, turning into a mass of white liquid. Seeing this, An Xiang hurriedly ran towards Li Yancheng.

After entering the room, An Xiang ordered a cup of warm coffee and sat opposite to Li Yancheng.

Today's Li Yancheng is a bit different from usual, although Li Yancheng usually likes to be silent, but for some reason, An Xiang feels that today's Li Yancheng is a bit cold, which makes people feel a little awkward.

He didn't pester Li Yancheng all the time to ask what happened, but just stayed with Li Yancheng quietly, thinking that as long as Li Yancheng was willing to speak, he would definitely tell him.

He also knows that such an opportunity is basically impossible to exist.

Today's Li Yancheng is indeed a little different from usual. After a moment of silence, he pointed out the window and said, "It used to be my home."

An Xiang looked in the direction Li Yancheng pointed at. It was just an ordinary residential area on the fourth floor. From their perspective, it seemed that someone had already moved in there, and there were still some changes of clothes hanging on the balcony.

However, because of the snow, there must be no way for the clothes to dry in a short time.

An Xiang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

He knew very little about Li Yan's family.

It has been several years ago, when they were still in college, Liao Qun who knew Li Yancheng earlier than them, because his mother had to have an operation, and the time for the operation was not waiting for anyone, Liao Qun In addition, he couldn't afford the money for a while, so he took the risk and did some criminal things in the gray area and was arrested...

Afterwards he heard that Li Yancheng sold his house and used the money to perform surgery on Liao Qun's mother.

An Xiang knew about this, but it was a long time later, when he had already graduated from university.

Now that Li Yancheng mentioned it abruptly, An Xiang thought about it again.

But facing Li Yancheng like this, An Xiang didn't know how to comfort him, or did Li Yancheng really need him to comfort him?

Li Yancheng's temperament has always been solitary, like a lone wolf, will he really be weak enough to need comfort from others?

An Xiang looked directly at Li Yancheng, trying to see from the other person's eyes whether the other person was sad at the moment or just regretful, but he couldn't tell the difference.

An Xiang's bewilderment made Li Yancheng feel a little ridiculous, he put down the warm cup in his hand, and said to An Xiang, "Would you like to sit up?"

An Xiang immediately panicked when he heard the words. In the panic, he put down the cup in his hand, then looked at Li Yancheng with wide eyes, and asked, "Can we go up?"

As soon as the words came out, he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for him to ask this question, so he said again: "You have already sold the house to others, isn't it a bit rash for us to go like this?"

But Li Yancheng said: "You don't really want to go? If you want to go, you can knock on the door and ask."

Regarding Li Yancheng's proposal, An Xiang just gritted his teeth secretly, but failed to make any response.

Li Yancheng's past life was indeed a fatal temptation for An Xiang, but even so, could he really knock on the other's door and let him in to have a look?

An Xiang swallowed, and finally lowered his head to play with his phone.

Obviously, he can't do it now.

Not to mention knocking on the door so suddenly, even if the house still belongs to Li Yancheng himself, he might not have the guts to step into Li Yancheng's house at this time.

After An Xiang stopped talking, Li Yancheng also stopped talking.

The two sat quietly on the spot for about an hour, until the cups were cold, and then they went out and took a taxi back to the previous hotel.

After arriving at the hotel, An Xiang was still a little gloomy. During this day, neither of them had much time to talk. They were sitting on the bed, doing their own things.

Because of the snow, the sky quickly darkened. After eating dinner and washing up, An Xiang lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep.

After tossing and turning until midnight, An Xiang took out his phone from under the pillow, and then sent a text message to Zhang Xuan: Have you ever been to Li Yancheng's house?

An Xiang asked Zhang Xuan nonchalantly.

However, Zhang Xuan immediately called after seeing his text message, and An Xiang was so scared that he immediately refused to answer. After hanging up the phone, he sent another text message: He is by my side, have you been there?

After a while, the phone vibrated, and Zhang Xuan's text message came back: no.

In the bed, An Xiang continued to send text messages to harass Zhang Xuan: I saw that Li Yan got married, and he went today.

This time Zhang Xuan didn't answer immediately, his text message was silent for nearly half an hour before Zhang Xuan replied to the text message and asked: Is his home in City X?

X City is where An Xiang and the others are now. Before Zhang Xuan didn't know that this was Li Yancheng's family.

Both Zhang Xuan and An Xiang heard about Li Yancheng from a bureau chief who used to take good care of Zhang Xuan. The bureau chief said that Li Yancheng lost his parents and younger brother when he was a child, so he went to school alone while working and studying, and later came to their place. The city knew them, and they also knew what happened afterwards.

But the bureau chief never mentioned anything about Li Yancheng before, like where did Li Yancheng live?What city are you from?They basically don't know.

Although they also thought about asking Li Yancheng after getting acquainted, they didn't want to bring up the things that Li Yancheng kept silent, so they never took the initiative to ask.

At this moment, he would not ask Li Yancheng why he didn't tell them before.

But the silence and calm that An Xiang chooses will only make him excited but unable to vent at all.

The mood was too complicated, including excitement and trance, but also anxiety and hesitation. An Xiang stared at the phone screen under the covers: Do you want to come over?

After sending this message, without waiting for a response from the other party, he wrote down their specific addresses on his phone and sent them together.

He couldn't describe the feeling in his heart at this moment, so he urgently needed to find someone to share it for him. The feeling was too heavy for him to breathe.

Zhang Xuan didn't answer his question again, but An Xiang knew that at least one person would be as sleepless as him tonight.
