Qilin Jue [Tomb Raiders Notes]

When Huo Xiuxiu woke up, it was already bright outside the window.She waited all night yesterday, but fell asleep without knowing it.

Walking out of the room, Huo Xiuxiu called a waiter and asked, "Where's Brother Xiaohua? Didn't he come back last night?"

"Master Hua has returned." The man replied.

"What, you don't call me when you come back." Huo Xiuxiu pursed her lips and walked towards Xie Yuchen's room.

Slowly pushing open the door, Huo Xiuxiu looked inside and said softly, "Brother Xiaohua, are you there?"

No one answered.

Huo Xiuxiu walked into the room, still didn't see Xie Yuchen's figure, walked around the screen, and was about to shout again, but when she saw the scene in front of her, her voice stopped in her throat.

Xie Yuchen was half bent over the table, leaning against the back of the chair, with his legs curled up, his curled up body was a little thin, and he seemed insecure.He seemed to be asleep, his breathing was very shallow, his eyes were tightly closed, but at the corner of his eyes, a wet wet mark was very clear.He held a black ancient knife tightly in his hand, his cheek was pressed against the blade, as if he was attached to something, his expression was solidified with expectation and pain, but also pale with despair.

Huo Xiuxiu was stunned, and stood in front of the table blankly, unable to respond.

In her memory, Xie Yuchen has always been on his own, confident and proud. He can be cold, humorous, strong and ruthless, and gentle and approachable.But she had never seen such a Xie Yuchen, fragile, desperate, and insecure.

What made him like this?Huo Xiuxiu thought, and slowly approached.Xie Yuchen was thinner than before, and his face was always pale.

When Huo Xiuxiu saw clearly the ancient knife in Xie Yuchen's arms, he was startled suddenly.

She recognized that knife and had seen it before. There were two of them put together, and the other half was in Zhang Qiling's hand.

Xie Yuchen moved suddenly, Huo Xiuxiu was taken aback, and was about to back away, but he seemed to be muttering something, which could not be heard clearly.

Huo Xiuxiu slowly moved closer, and leaned her head closer, trying to hear what Xie Yuchen was going to say. After listening to it for a long time, she finally understood what he was talking about.

"Wake up..."

……

"Boss, someone is looking for you!"

Wu Xie raised his head from the computer, and replied impatiently: "Who is it? No see!" After speaking, he lowered his head and continued to fiddle with the keyboard.

For the past few days, he has been searching for the background of that photo and the origins of the people on it, but he has received little effect.And what confused and depressed him was that when he came back, he went to collect the letter from the mysterious person, but the administrator told him that the letter had been taken away.

Who would have taken the letter? Wu Xie had no clue at all, and he didn't get many clues when asked.Now we can only start from the relevant people in the photos and explore step by step.

Wu Xie searched out the information of the expedition team, and when he was about to take a closer look, there was a sudden roar above his head, and then the computer was turned off.

"Stinky boy, did you hear that?" Wu's mother stared, "I called you so many times and didn't answer!"

"Mom?" Wu Xie was taken aback, "Why are you here?"

Wu's mother sat aside and said, "I asked the waiter to call you, but you still said that you didn't see me, why, you are not welcome?"

"I didn't know it was you, and you didn't say you would come." Wu Xie said helplessly.

"See if my son still needs to say hello in advance?" Wu's mother said angrily, "I told you to go back if you don't return, I have to come to you."

"I don't have time." Wu Xie turned on the computer and continued to fiddle with it.

"Brat, do you just play computer when you don't have time?" Mother Wu came over and was about to turn it off for him again.

"Hey don't!" Wu Xie stood up abruptly and covered the computer with both hands, "I have something to check, so don't ask."

"How much time will it take you to go home," Wu's mother grabbed Wu Xie's ear, "When you can't surf the Internet, you can go back with me today, and you can do whatever you want in the future."

"It hurts!" Wu Xie hurriedly broke free, but seeing her mother's attitude of refusing to give up unless she agreed, she had to compromise and said: "Okay, I will go back when I go back, but I can't stay long, I have to come back in the afternoon."

"It's okay, just have breakfast. Let's go now, or it will be too late." Mother Wu smiled, turned and walked outside.

Wu Xie was depressed, and muttered: "Is it necessary to arrest people in person just to have breakfast? It must be nothing good..."

"What did you say?" Mother Wu looked back at him.

"No..." Wu Xie turned off the computer helplessly, and followed.

At first, I wondered why my mother came here so abnormally and called me to go back, but when I got home, Wu Xie immediately understood.

Sitting on the sofa was a delicate and delicate girl, with long hair softly draped over her shoulders, she looked very well-behaved.

"Brother Wu Xie, do you still remember me?" She smiled and looked at Wu Xie.

"Xiao Xie, do you remember her, Shu Yun, you two knew each other when you were young." Mother Wu said with a smile, then leaned into Wu Xie's ear and whispered, "I was talking about her before, how is it?"

Wu Xie frowned tightly, and understood her mother's purpose this time, but she couldn't say anything in person, so she forced a smile and nodded to the girl, "Hello."

"Shu Yun still remembers Xiao Xie?" Mother Wu smiled.

"Well, I have a little impression." The girl said shyly.

"Where's dad?" Seeing that there were only three of them at home, Wu Xie asked Mother Wu suspiciously.

"I've got something to do." Mother Wu walked into the kitchen, "Sit down first, and I'll cook."

When eating, Wu Xie kept silent, and when asked, he would hum a few times at most. Although Wu's mother tried her best to stir up the topic, she was still very cold, and Miss Ren had to stay for a while before leaving.

"Xiao Xie, what's the matter with you, why don't you say anything, and let me put on airs." After Wu's mother sent the girl away, she looked at Wu Xie dissatisfied.

"Mom, calling me back isn't just as simple as eating." Wu Xie didn't turn his head, watching TV, "I've made it very clear before."

Mother Wu was stunned for a moment, then sighed, walked over and sat down, "Then you should also understand why I did this, you are such an old man, do you want me and your father to worry?"

"This is my own business and I have a measure." Wu Xie lowered his head, "I have no such plans for the time being."

"No plan?" Wu's mother frowned, "I'm already in my thirties, when will I have a plan, my father and I are worried. Shu Yun is a nice person, why don't you think about it?"

"This kind of thing is not enough to think about it." Wu Xie scratched her head irritably, "I don't know her well at all, and besides, I don't like her."

"What's wrong with being a person? He looks good and has a pleasing personality."

"Anyway, I just don't like it." Wu Xie said in a broken jar.

"I said you child..." Mother Wu was about to reprimand, but seemed to think of something, paused, and then asked tentatively: "Is it because you have someone you like that you refuse to agree?"

Wu Xie lowered his head in silence for a while, then nodded: "En."

"It's not something you can't talk about!" Wu's mother's eyes lit up, "Oh, why didn't you tell mom about it? Tell me, what kind of person is the other party? What does he look like? Do you have a good personality?"

"Uh..." Wu Xie's mouth twitched, and his eyes moved to one side, "He... is relatively quiet, doesn't like to be noisy, has a flat personality, is relatively distant, very powerful, good-looking, not very talkative, I like to be alone," Wu Xie couldn't stop talking, "but in fact he treats people very well, but he is worried that no one will say anything, and he is used to hiding everything in his heart, bearing it alone, never Put others in danger, take care of those around you..."

"This girl has a good temper," Wu's mother said thoughtfully, "although it's a bit weird. But what did you say that you were in danger? What do you mean?"

"Oh... that just means that he never drags others down." Wu Xie picked up the cup guilty and pretended to drink water, but he forgot that it was empty.

"According to what you say, she's quite sensible," Wu's mother nodded, not paying attention to Wu Xie's strange behavior, "Since you have someone you like, why didn't you tell me and your dad earlier, let us be anxious. "

"It's not that I didn't think about how to say it." Wu Xie coughed.

"What's not to say?" Mother Wu rolled her eyes, and then leaned over again, "Bring someone here to have a look?"

"That..." Wu Xie scratched his head in embarrassment, "We don't...we don't even know how people feel about me..." His eyes darkened when he said this.

"Chase harder." Wu's mother patted him on the head, "Hurry up, bring it back and have a look."

"It's easy for you to say." Wu Xie smiled wryly, "He..."

"What's wrong?" Mother Wu noticed her son's strangeness, and asked worriedly, "Did something happen?"

Wu Xie lowered her eyelids, shook her head, then stood up, and said as she went upstairs, "I'll go back to my room to rest for a while, don't call me."

"This child..." Wu's mother looked at the closed door suspiciously, "Why doesn't it seem like he didn't chase after him, but it looks like he's broken in love."

Of course, Wu Xie didn't hear what his mother said behind him. After entering the room, he sat by the bed in a daze, not knowing what to think.

After a while, he took out his mobile phone, and found the only saved photo. Looking at the person on it, he seemed a little absent-minded.

Suddenly, the phone interface popped up and the bell rang.

Wu Xie was taken aback for a moment, then came back to his senses, saw the strange caller ID on it, hesitated for a moment, then pressed the answer button: "Hello?"

"Xiao Tianzhen, do you know who I am?" A carefree voice came from over there.

Wu Xie was speechless for a moment, "Why did you call, you fat man? Didn't you say that you would plant land in Banai for the rest of your life to pay homage to your lost cloud?"

"For farming, you can do it at any time, but this brother is in trouble, how can I sit idly by and let the fat man do nothing!"

"What do you mean?" Wu Xie was puzzled.

"You're making such a big noise, and the investigators have found Fatty's territory. How could I not know about it?"

"You know?" Wu Xie raised his eyebrows.

"Tell me, what are you planning to do with such a big fanfare? Fatty, I have been surfing the Internet recently, how could I not know? Didn't you ask about the news from Beijing, and my buddy told me."

"Hey, don't join in, just go plant your land." Wu Xie rolled his eyes.

"Hey, I'm naive, but don't underestimate me, fat man, don't think that I don't know that you are looking for things related to my little brother again."

"You also know?"

"Cut, with your straight mind, no one can see it. In the past, as long as it was related to the little brother, you must be the first to punch. Fatty, I don't even have the sharpness of eyesight. What's the matter?" Mix it up."

"Then what can you do?" Wu Xie smiled wryly, "I have no clue now, and I don't even know where my little brother is."

"Fatty, I'm going back to Beijing. I'll let you know when the time comes. You first tell me what you know."

Wu Xie had no choice but to be patient and told Fatty the whole story. Of course, he would not tell certain plots.

The fat man was silent for a long time after listening.

"Fatty, talk, are you dead?" Wu Xie called out in doubt.

The fat man took a deep breath as if someone who was about to suffocate had finally recovered, and then howled in a very beating tone: "Oh, hey, I said you guys have been hit by a magic horse, even the flower The same is true for the son, this little brother is not a fairy daughter who came down to earth, fascinated you one or two, do you want to live?"

"You're going to die," Wu Xie darkened, "Can you be more serious?"

"Why am I not serious? Fat Master, I can hear it. You guys are all so serious for my little brother. Where can I be serious. Hey..." The fat man looked up to the sky and sighed, "No wonder the Zhang family is so fast. There is no more queens, and the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are all men."

"Get lost!" Wu Xie didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Hurry up and get down to business!"

"Okay, okay," the fat man said slowly, "I'm afraid that the little brother will settle the score if I neglect the fat master."
