He Long rushed back to the hospital without chatting with He Shan for too long.

He walked to the front of the ward with clean clothes and pushed open the door, only to find that the sickly young man got out of bed by himself and slowly rolled the wheelchair to the balcony.

After autumn, the temperature drops sharply, and there are lingering rains from time to time. The heavy humidity is not friendly to people with leg injuries, as the doctor told.

"Yan Xiao!" He Taki's heart sank, and he blurted out, but the name rolled on the tip of his tongue and suddenly became difficult and unfamiliar, and he changed his words abruptly: "... Yan Jinyun."

The young man froze for a moment, then turned around in astonishment.

"Why did you come down by yourself?" He Ting was not used to seeing him, so he walked over quickly, bending over as if to hug him to bed, the young man was startled, and he leaned back to dodge.

"You...you don't..." He didn't know how to explain, and he stuttered in shock.

Fortunately, He Long stopped his movements in time, leaned on the armrest of the wheelchair awkwardly, and tilted his head helplessly and distressed, "Okay, I won't touch you, don't be afraid." He comforted in a low voice: "Are you hungry?" Hungry? I'll go buy you something to eat."

"No need, police officer Xiao Zhong brought me food just now, I'm full..." The young man replied awkwardly and obediently.

"Really?" He Taki smiled: "What did you eat?"

"I ate..." The young man honestly recalled it, and rubbed his thin white fingertips: "There is salted crispy chicken, braised pig's ears..."

"You ate these?!" He Taki asked in surprise.

The young man stopped his mouth timidly when he was frightened, and asked in a low voice, "Ah...have I eaten too much?"

"No, no." He Taki laughed, and waved his hands mockingly: "I thought you would eat sweets."

The young man's expression froze for a moment. After a while, he bit his lower lip and said in a low voice, "What did you... call me before?"

"Yan Jinyun." He Taki looked seriously into his light-colored eyes and said, "This is your real name, isn't it?"

Yan Xiao's lips parted slightly, his throat rolled with his ups and downs of breathing, but he didn't speak.

His helpless and bewildered reaction fell into He Taki's eyes and landed on his heart, like a sprinkling of sharp broken glass, causing He Taki's heart and lungs to tingle.

He couldn't help but think of the question he asked He Shan a few hours ago. After a long time of deliberation, He Shan finally told him the huge and secretive story about "Yan Jinyun".

"Actually, as early as a few years ago, the "Freedom App" you mentioned appeared, but in a different form, but that system hides criminals in a certain alien space until they exceed the time limit. The maximum time limit for the police to file a case was released. This method allowed prisoners to escape sanctions. Later, the judicial system became a mess, and we had to set up a special team and sent our best people to investigate in that system. Some people familiar with the matter It is revealed that that alien space is exactly the same as the real world. People in it wake up in the morning and sleep in the evening, eat and drink three meals a day, and even communicate with each other as companions. If it is not for knowing that it is not realistic In the world, they can't tell which ones are real and which ones are fake, let alone distinguish which ones are disguised criminals and bring them to justice... They even joked that if there is no task, people can stay in it safely for ten years. It doesn’t matter if you don’t come out for a few years.”

"Later, we had to change our strategy and let our people simply settle down in the alien space, integrate into that world, and judge which people are aborigines and which people are outsiders through long-term observation of the behavior of the people around them. This task of selecting pests from ordinary people is called the 'Reverse Transcription Project'."

"This is a very difficult job. Firstly, the scenes of those different dimensions are different. It is a test of undercover skills to blend in without being discovered. Secondly, behavior analysis itself is not easy and requires meticulous observation. Ability, the most terrible thing is... We don’t have the technology to check who is the real criminal in advance, which means that if you catch people inside and execute them, it is very likely to be a manslaughter.”

"So what if it's a manslaughter? The people in the alien space... are just NPCs." He Long said.

He Shan smiled bitterly, "No one knows where the people inside come from, whether it is data or reality, but this is actually not the most harmful thing... Do you know He Long, people are social animals, no one Can survive in a closed space for a long time. Due to the nature of the work, the people we sent in need to stay in it for a long, long time. The longest stay in it is ten months. Later you will I found that... they were homogenized to a certain extent. In that world, they could not get in touch with the people they were familiar with in reality, and they could only inevitably interact with the people around them, even if they warned themselves countless times That world is false, and it will also establish a network of relationships and produce emotional support. So manslaughter... is actually a very cruel experience."

"When selecting personnel to enter, we deliberately conducted assessments in many aspects, because we wanted to select those with the strongest professional ability and the most determined mind, but... even so, after performing tasks repeatedly, those people returned There are still varying degrees of psychological trauma in the real world. We tried to send them all to a nursing home for psychiatric treatment, but it was useless. Some of them committed suicide because of extreme guilt, and some always believed that they had not returned to the real world. , choose to lie on the rails or jump off the building to end this nightmare. To put it bluntly... they are all crazy."

"Then what about Yan Jinyun?" He Taki heard his voice trembling restrainedly.

"He is... a very special existence." He Shan's tone shifted subtly, full of emotion: "We have dispatched nearly a hundred undercover agents, and he is the youngest one among them, and he is also the number of missions completed. The one with the highest and lowest accidental injury rate... You must know that before him, our accidental injury rate was as high as 60.00%. The most amazing thing is that he received a psychological evaluation after completing the task, and there was no problem. Powerful, so... he also became the only survivor."

"We all feel guilty about these undercover agents, so after Yan Jinyun withdrew from the 'Reverse Transcription Project', we gave him generous compensation and allowed him not to participate in dangerous field work. He should have returned to his hometown later. , In fact, this is also very normal, if it is different, I guess I don't want to work in the field anymore..."

"Did you say the name Yan Xiao? I guess it should be the alias he used when he was an undercover agent. The General Administration of Planning has been keeping secrets, and their previous files have been sealed, because although every undercover officer is voluntary. Participated, but the sacrifice is really huge, and if it spreads out, it will definitely be regarded as a scandal by interested people, and it will be evidence of the incompetence of the General Administration. Moreover, people like them who have personally killed people are likely to be viewed with colored eyes, and this is for their own good... ...But for a person like Yan Jinyun, whose name should always be on the Honor Roll of our General Administration, and is the object of key commendation and protection, how could Wei Ruiming hurt him? This is too strange."

After He Taki finished listening, apart from the shock, there was nothing but endless heartache.

He was right in guessing that Yan Jinyun was a police student who was supposed to have a bright future, but was forced to go back to his hometown... What happens after he goes back to his hometown?What happened again, why did it become like this.

He couldn't figure out anything else, he only knew that the General Administration was sorry for Yan Jinyun.

He suddenly felt that he was extremely ridiculous. He said he liked and loved him, but how much did he actually know about this person?He only gave such superficial love, how could he ask Yan Jinyun to give him full sincerity?

I don't know what Yan Jinyun thinks of him.

Thinking of this, his heart split into several petals like being chiseled by an awl, feeling guilty and sad at the same time.

"You know?" Yan Xiao asked in a murmur, with a little cautious probing.

"Well, I went home and met my dad." He Long smiled and said, "Do you remember my dad? Old Director He, he used to take public classes at the OUHK."

Yan Xiao hesitated: "Remember, remember..." He was coping, but he thought of something more important: "Are your parents okay? Are they implicated? I heard from Xiao Sheng that you are wanted."

"It's not a big deal." He Taki bent down and touched the top of his hair, and said softly, "You don't have to worry about it."

"How can this not be a big deal?" Yan Xiao said anxiously: "Is it because of me? Are you unable to return to your post? What should you do if you cannot return?"

"I said don't worry about it, why are there more and more problems?" He Ting didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he sighed softly, "Isn't it just right not to go back? I can always be with you and be your umbrella."

"No, I don't want you to be my umbrella! This is inappropriate!" Yan Xiao was anxious.

"Why not?"

"That's right, it's not appropriate!" Yan Xiao's anxious face turned pale, and he said loudly, "You have so many responsibilities on your shoulders, if you don't fulfill them, what will happen to those who need you?"

"Don't you need me?" He Ting interrupted him, firmly: "No one needs me more than you now!"

"But...but!" Yan Xiao almost cried.

He Taki's heart was about to be worn down, he could no longer restrain the turbulent passion in his heart, he bent down and kissed the other party suddenly, he pressed the back of the young man's head hard, wanting to take away the burning passion The warmth and firmness are transmitted through the intimate contact of lips and teeth, turning into the wings of a huge angel, protecting his lover and giving him a sense of security.

The young man suddenly stiffened, his eyes widened, and every eyelash trembled under the stimulation.

"Hmm..." He struggled weakly, and the intensity became bigger and bigger with the reaction, and finally broke free fiercely.

"Pa" he slapped He Long uncontrollably.

He Taki's face was turned slightly away from the beating, he paused, and didn't speak for a long while.

A silence.

Yan Xiao was stunned.

He suddenly pressed the wrist of his right hand with his left hand, trembling like a disease spreading in his flesh and blood, he was really terrified, and he didn't know how to explain it, so that he was so afraid that he was stressed...

He Taki was not angry, but slowly lowered his eyes, his eyes filled with heavy and dark emotions, like the rain at the end of the sky, he was severely injured.

The wind blows outside the window, swirling with the fallen leaves, and the coolness bursts, soaking the silence even more unbearable.

"I..." Yan Xiao spoke incoherently in a panic, her eyes were forced to be moist and scarlet: "...I didn't mean it! I just—"

He Taki raised his hand and lightly leaned on his cheek, mocking himself: "I know...you don't need to explain." He let out a long breath, expressing his heart: "It's all my fault, I can't control myself, I I always...so self-righteously liking you." He shook his head and said apologetically, "I won't offend you anymore."

Yan Xiao was in despair, he drooped his head, biting the corner of his lips tangled up, his ravaged lips were slightly red and swollen, and still had watery luster.

He Taki couldn't help but take a few more glances, the supple emotions rippling in his heart like waves of boiling water, and the restlessness like magma ebbed and flowed.

"But you can't drive me away." He said word by word, "From now on, I will be like this mobile phone and this keychain with you." He took the mobile phone beside the bed and shook the pink Plush Rabbit: "I'm counting on you, Yan Jinyun."
