I Just Came to Borrow a Light

When Lin Chengbu went to work in the afternoon, he didn't call the elder sister over again, and of course he didn't handcuff Yuan Wu in the toilet.

Although Yuan Wu said that he would not run or die alone, Lin Chengbu still had a profound conversation with him before going out, expressing his strong desire for him to calm down, and also expressing his strong wish to him. He made it clear that if he is not honest with himself, he will lose patience and become a pervert.

"Let's go." Yuan Wu was a little impatient.

"I made the food and put it in the refrigerator. When you eat it, just put the bowl in the microwave oven and you'll be fine. And, I'm serious," Lin Chengbu said while changing his shoes, "I'm going crazy. Doctors are afraid to see him.”

Yuan Wu sighed, fell down on the sofa, and waved at him: "Work hard, old man."

Lin Cheng stepped downstairs, took out his mobile phone when he got there, and opened a monitoring software.

The screen showed that Yuan Wu was lying on the sofa, holding the remote control and pressing it, presumably preparing to watch TV.

It's okay, it's the first time for Lin Chengbu to use this thing. When he bought a network set-top box before, he gave a surveillance camera that he had never used. He didn't fine-tune it today because he was afraid that Yuan Wu would find out.

The angle is not very good, but you can see the doors of the living room and bedroom, and you can see a corner of the bed. If there is anything wrong with Yuan Wu, you can almost see it.

With this gadget, Lin Chengbu felt much more at ease. After working in the kitchen for a while in the afternoon, he took time to take a look at his phone.

Yuan Wu is in good condition today, lying on the sofa watching TV, drinking yogurt, smoking two cigarettes, nothing abnormal.

Is this normal now?

Although it is still not the same as the previous Yuan Wu, his temper is better than before, and he talks more than before, but he has no convulsions, basically like a patient with amnesia.

If Lin Chengbu hadn't already contacted his former classmates, it would not be bad for Lin Chengbu to maintain it for a while even when he felt that he couldn't solve it.

After the time when the number of visitors was the most in the evening, Lin Chengbu had some free time, went to the backyard to light a cigarette, and took out his mobile phone to check the monitor.

Yuan Wu was still sitting on the sofa, but there was a plate and a bowl on the small coffee table in front of him, both of which were empty, probably because he had warmed up the dishes and eaten.

I don't know what TV to watch at this time, Yuan Wu is still watching it seriously, sitting there without changing the channel, watching while yawning.

In the past, Lin Chengbu felt that Yuan Wu was a person who could calm down. Except for bartending at night, he was very quiet when he saw him at other times. He could maintain a posture for a long time, and sometimes even make people forget his presence.

Yuan Wu performed well today, and Lin Chengbu was quite at ease when he drove to the 18th after get off work.

The nightlife on the 18th hadn't even started until after nine o'clock. When he entered, there were only two or three tables of guests sitting in the hall under the eerie blackened lights.

Someone at the innermost table raised his hand: "Xiaobu."

Lin Chengbu looked over, the three people at that table, Jiang Chengyu and two people he didn't know, should be that friend and Yuan Wu's classmate.

He was a little nervous and walked over quickly.

Jiang Chengyu introduced him, that friend was Hu Jian, and Yuan Wu's classmate was Guo Xiaoshuai.

Lin Chengbu was very impressed with Guo Xiaoshuai, not only because this person might know about Yuan Wu's past, but also because this person really didn't look like a good person. He belonged to everyone except the protagonist when he appeared in the TV series. Everyone recognizes him as the villain of the bad guys.

"What would you like to drink?" Jiang Chengyu asked.

"Boiled water, I drive," Lin Chengbu said, hesitating for a while and then added, "I can't stay too long, at home..."

"I know, let's go straight to the point." Jiang Chengyu raised his chin at Guo Xiaoshuai, "I asked Xiaoshuai, he knows Yuan Shen."

"Do you want to inquire about Yuan Shen or Yuan Wu?" Guo Xiaoshuai lit a cigarette.

"I want to know, do you know them well?" Lin Chengbu asked.

"I was in the same class as Yuanwu, class 173. We were quite familiar with each other at that time. We went home together," Guo Xiaoshuai puffed out his cigarette. , and go to and from school together every day, I feel that no one is particularly familiar with him, we were still willing to play with Yuan Wu at that time."

"No one knows him very well?" Lin Chengbu was stunned, "You mean Yuan Shen? Can you tell me about them?"

With Yuan Wu's personality, everyone actually wants to stay with him?

"You know they are twins," Guo Xiaoshuai said, "Identical twins, they look very similar. It took me a month to tell them apart."

"Really." Lin Chengbu said, he had never met Yuan Shen, but when Xiao Ni saw Yuan Wu's evasive expression when he was looking for Yuan Wu to get something, he could guess that the two brothers should look alike.

"But his personality is not like that at all." Guo Xiaoshuai blew a smoke ring, failed to blow it out, and pulled it away with his hands, "Yuan Wu has a hot temper and doesn't like to talk, but well, it feels like... a normal one people."

"Is Yuan Shen abnormal?" Jiang Chengyu asked from the side.

"I think it's abnormal, it's very strange," Guo Xiaoshuai clicked his tongue, "If you don't get in touch with him, you will think that this person is nice, has a good temper, loves to laugh, and looks like he can talk to everyone, but in fact he is not. so."

"What kind?" Lin Chengbu immediately asked.

"I can't say it, it's just weird. When I'm talking to you with a smile, you still feel that he is very... quite... how do you say that word, distance... distance? No, no, distance...vegetables, No, Jiang Shuying, no no no..."

"Alienated." Jiang Chengyu sighed.

"That's right! That's the word, alienation!" Guo Xiaoshuai gave Jiang Chengyu a thumbs up with his smoke between his fingers, "Brother Chengyu is still educated."

"It's enough to just say alienation," Jiang Chengyu poured him some wine, "Don't drag your words, save time."

"What else?" Lin Chengbu asked again, "Does he have a good relationship with Yuan Wu?"

"It's hard to say, Yuan Wu basically doesn't mention him, but he talks a lot with Yuan Wu. I'm not sure if their relationship is good, but the relationship between the two brothers is not much different."

"Then... do you know the situation at his family? What about his parents?" Lin Chengbu hesitated when he asked this question, as if he had torn apart Yuan Wu's net.

But he really wanted to know why from the moment he knew Yuan Wu, Yuan Wu was like an orphan and didn't mention his family, and the family didn't care about him even after his accident.

"Know it," Guo Xiaoshuai took a puff of cigarette, "how should I put it, when we were in high school, they both lived with their grandparents, like Yuan Wu lived with his parents when he was in elementary school, and Yuan Shen lived with the old man all the time. Ma'am, their parents didn't know what happened, so Yuan Wu came here, and I haven't seen his parents anyway."

"That's it." Lin Chengbu frowned.

"But I don't know much. I don't want to go to his house. I only went there once. I didn't say that the old man and the old lady's partiality is too obvious. Outsiders can tell at a glance that they are partial to Yuanshen." Guo Xiaoshuai With a tut, there was some annoyance on his face.

"Maybe he didn't bring up the child himself. Is it normal to be a little biased?" Hu Jian said aside.

"That can't be like that, I feel like the child of the enemy family sent them to the front." Guo Xiaoshuai pinched the end of his cigarette, and immediately lit another one, "You know, when it rains, we get wet in the rain." It’s okay to go back, it’s all drenched, and the old lady came to pick it up, you can forget it, just take an umbrella and give it to Yuan Shen! Do you think this partiality is a bit too much!”

Lin Chengbu was a little surprised, he was stunned for a while before asking again: "Then what happened after that?"

"Later? Wasn't it still the same later? What happened later," Guo Xiaoshuai spat to the side, Jiang Chengyu quickly turned his head away, he smiled a little embarrassedly, then looked at Lin Chengbu, "Later Yuan After applying for university, Yuan Wu went to work, so I didn't have so much contact with him. Anyway, he didn't come to the class reunion, and I didn't know much about his later affairs, except that he was a good bartender. "

"Why did Yuan Wu go to work?" Jiang Chengyu asked, "I think he should have good grades."

"Both of them have good grades," Guo Xiaoshuai said. "I don't know if the family only provides for Yuan Shen or Yuan Wu doesn't want to miss him anymore. Anyway, he didn't go to college."

"Then you... know Yuanshen..." Lin Chengbu took a sip of water, "What happened later? Where is he, he..."

"He," Guo Xiaoshuai interrupted him, suddenly approached him mysteriously, and said in a low voice, "I heard he committed suicide."

"What?" Lin Chengbu was a little shocked. Although he had guessed about this because Yuan Shen had no news, he couldn't help being shocked when he heard such words suddenly, "Suicide?"

Jiang Chengyu on the side also raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"I heard it, but I don't know if it's true. Anyway, he hasn't heard from him for several years." Guo Xiaoshuai played with the lighter, and the flame flashed on his expression, "And Yuan Wu didn't say anything, and their family didn't mention it either." , it seems that the funeral was not done, or it was done without people knowing."

Lin Chengbu felt that it was okay if he didn't inquire, but after inquiring, he became even more confused, staring at Guo Xiaoshuai for a long time, not knowing what else to ask.

"Did you bring photos?" Jiang Chengyu asked Guo Xiaoshuai.

"That's right, I almost forgot," Guo Xiaoshuai took out a photo from his pocket, "This was taken when we were playing. He will go to the game whenever there is one.”

Lin Chengbu felt his hands tremble a little when he took the photo.

There were seven or eight people in the photo, some in basketball uniforms, and some in school uniforms. Lin Chengbu saw Yuan Wu at a glance, but he broke out in a sweat after a moment. He actually recognized the wrong person.

Yuan Wu was squatting in the first row in a basketball uniform, and what Lin Chengbu saw at a glance was Yuan Shen standing behind him.

And Yuan Shen's smile... What scared him a little was Yuan Shen's smile.

The kind of smile that looked happy, he had seen on Yuan Wu's face, the kind of smile he had never had before.

He looked at the photo for a long time, closed his eyes and pinched his eyebrows: "Brother Guo, do you know that Yuan Shen writes novels?"

"Writing novels? I don't know, but he published a lot of articles when he was in school, and the Chinese teacher liked him," Guo Xiaoshuai said, "He wrote novels later?"

"En." Lin Chengbu responded.

In the notebook before Yuan Wu, there are all the novels written by Yuan Shen, including the one that has not been sent out after writing.

The notebook Yuan Wu is using now should belong to Yuan Shen.

But since he already has all of Yuan Shen's novels, why does he still need Yuan Shen's notebook?

Is it to...to make myself more like Yuan Shen?

Lin Chengbu only felt chills running down his back. All his previous guesses might have become facts at this moment, and he couldn't accept it.

Even though he had thought more than once that Yuan Wu was no longer Yuan Wu, he had become Yuan Shen little by little, and he was struggling hard not to let anyone know, trying to deceive everyone, including himself, but when all the guesses came true When the dots became clear, Lin Chengbu felt scared.

terrified.

He didn't know whether he was facing Yuan Wu or Yuan Shen.

Which moment is Yuanwu, and which moment is Yuanshen.

Was it Yuan Wu who bit him?

Was it Yuan Shen who calmly said to him not to let the eldest sister come again?

And Yuan Wu gradually no longer resisted his meddling in his affairs, did Yuan Wu want to get rid of this kind of life?

Or an illusion?

After all, Yuan Shen has a much better temper than Yuan Wu.

That's about all Guo Xiaoshuai can provide. As for what happened to Yuan Shen, no one seems to know.

Only Yuan Wu knows.

Only Yuan Wu knows.

Does Yuan Wu really know?

Jiang Chengyu called Lin Chengbu aside, handed him a cigarette, and helped him light it up: "Is there anything else you want to know?"

"Too much." Lin Chengbu was smoking a cigarette, his brows were so frowned that his forehead felt sore, "but he doesn't know anything else."

"Do you want that photo?" Jiang Chengyu asked, "If you want it, I'll ask him to come over."

"Yes," Lin Chengbu said, "if there is a suitable opportunity, I would like Yuan Wu to see which of the two is the right one."

Jiang Chengyu nodded: "Do you need to check anything else? His parents and so on, the main thing is that they don't know where they are, so it might take a while to check, you..."

"No," Lin Chengbu shook his head, "There's no need to investigate. I think his biggest problem is with Yuan Shen. I don't want to find out too much about his family's previous affairs. I think...he hasn't mentioned it all the time, and he doesn't want people to know. If he knows in the future that we have investigated him, he may feel very uncomfortable."

"Alright then," Jiang Chengyu sighed, "What are you going to do?"

"I don't know," Lin Chengbu leaned against the wall, remembering Yuan Wu's terrible suicide attempt, "Yuan Shen may have drowned, I think he...has a psychological problem, he may have been on a suicide forum before The gangsters, there... are all people who want to commit suicide, and many of them are already dead."

"Fuck," Jiang Chengyu rubbed his arms, "Why do I feel so cautious?"

"I'm afraid too." Lin Chengbu said.

"Come here to keep warm." Jiang Chengyu opened his arms.

"Give me a break soon," Lin Chengbu said, took out his phone and clicked on the monitoring software, "I have to go back... hey!"

As soon as the surveillance screen was turned on, Lin Chengbu saw Yuan Wu's face. He was very close to the camera, and felt that his eyes were on the same line. He was suddenly nervous, was Yuan Wu spotted?

"What are you... You two are videoing?" Jiang Chengyu leaned over to take a look and was stunned, and immediately waved his hand at the screen, "Hi Xiaowu!"

"What ghost video are you watching?" Lin Chengbu stared at the screen, "Didn't you see that this is a camera?"

"Surveillance?" Jiang Chengyu glanced again, "I was discovered by you?"

"It seems to be." Lin Chengbu was a little nervous.

Yuan Wu seemed to be still studying the camera. After a few seconds, the camera swayed dizzily. When it stopped, the picture showed Yuan Wu sitting on the sofa, with the back of the sofa and the paintings on the wall in the background.

Yuan Wu smiled disdainfully, and raised his middle finger at the camera.

"Who do you think this is?" Lin Chengbu couldn't judge Yuan Wu now.

"Yuan Wu," Jiang Chengyu said, "I'm too familiar with this expression. When I'm having fun, I just point my finger at someone, and I won't change it for ten thousand years."

"That's good," Lin Chengbu heaved a sigh of relief. Jiang Chengyu is familiar with Yuan Wu, and he hasn't experienced the period between Yuan Wu and Yuan Wu. His judgment of Yuan Wu will be more accurate, "I have to go back. I'm afraid he'll get angry and smash my house down."

"Well," Jiang Chengyu nodded, and went to ask Guo Xiaoshuai for the photo, "If you think the time is right, bring him here."

"What?" Lin Chengbu looked at him.

"I don't know if it will work. I just take him around familiar places. You can forget many things, but you won't really forget."

"Got it," Lin Chengbu said, "I'll try it then."

Yuan Wu found the camera. When Lin Chengbu drove all the way back, he didn't dare to put the phone away. He put it on the phone holder in the front of the car, kept the monitoring software on, and glanced at it from time to time.

But Yuan Wu took the camera and studied it for a while, then put it on the coffee table, and pointed the camera at himself, and continued watching TV.

When Lin Cheng walked home and took the key to open the door, he was still watching TV.

"I'm back." Lin Chengbu opened the door and poked his head inside.

Yuan Wu didn't speak, but turned to look at him.

"You..." Lin Cheng stepped into the room, looked at the camera on the coffee table while changing his shoes, and said with some embarrassment, "Did you find this?"

"Well," Yuan Wu yawned, "You really have a lot of tricks when you become abnormal."

"I'm just worried," Lin Chengbu felt that Yuan Wu's mood was okay, so he sat beside him, "I'm sorry."

"Let me see how I did it?" Yuan Wu stretched out his hand, "Did you use a mobile phone?"

"Well," Lin Chengbu took out his phone, opened the software and handed it to him, "I'll just check it out every once in a while."

Yuan Wu picked up the camera and pointed it at him, looking at the phone screen: "It's quite clear, but there is a delay?"

"A little bit," Lin Chengbu got up and poured himself a glass of water. Yuan Wu kept pointing the camera at him, so he had to turn around and face the camera too, "Do you want to eat late at night?"

"Don't eat," Yuan Wu said, "Where did you go? Didn't you say that you got off work after nine o'clock?"

"I went...to meet a friend," Lin Chengbu said, "I don't know if you still remember."

"Who?" Yuan Wu looked at the screen.

"Jiang Chengyu, and..." Lin Chengbu stared at his face, "Guo Xiaoshuai."

Yuan Wu's hand holding the camera trembled slightly: "I don't remember."

"You lied to me," Lin Chengbu walked up to him and turned his face to the camera, "Yuan Shen knew Guo Xiaoshuai, and Yuan Wu knew both of them, how come you don't remember any of them?"
