Special Case Files of Rebirth

Walking out of Newark Airport, Guan Jin squinted his eyes under the sunlight.The familiar smell of maple wafts in the wind, carrying the breath of New York.

"It seems that you know the way well, isn't it the first time?" Tony switched to English to communicate with him.

"Of course, I am as familiar with this place as you are." Guan Jin also replied in English.

Tony froze for a moment: "Why does your accent look so similar to Ethan's? You couldn't have learned English from him, did you? You really got the wrong teacher. See how pure I speak."

"Your taste of Texas is almost killing people. Also, if you don't hurry up and drive, I'll take a taxi and drive away."

Tony drove his flamboyant red Lotus convertible back to their villa on the Upper East Side.The reason why they are mentioned is because Guan Jin, adhering to the idea of ​​hiding in the city, found a villa near the Central Park, but when it was renovated, it was designed to be half of one person, because Tony used to come to his apartment often, rushing to catch up. don't go.However, most of the time they don't live here, Guan Jin is usually in the apartment in Queens, while Tony is indulging in the gentle countryside.Only when there is a long gap between missions, Guan Jin will return to live in the villa for a while, and often stroll around the Metropolitan Museum during the day.

The more and more familiar city came into view, and the car finally stopped in front of the simple-looking villa, and Guan Jin realized that he was really back.

"This is the place where Ethan used to live, you wouldn't have been here too—" Tony watched as Guan Jin dropped his luggage and went straight to the kitchen. After a while, he came out with a bottle of iced Coke, swallowed what he wanted to say, "Sure enough, you have been here. Ethan, when did you get together? I don't know at all, it's so embarrassing!"

"You order food, I'll go take a shower." Guan Jin drank his coke, picked up his luggage bag and walked upstairs, "A sandwich number 75, no onions."

Tony was stunned on the spot, and for a moment, Guan Jin's back overlapped with that tall and stern man.Tony shook his head, it was so weird.

After eating, drinking and sleeping, Guan Jin felt energetic.Tony seemed to have gone out, Guan Jin strolled around the bedroom, finally pulled out a box with complicated decorations from the hidden compartment of the cabinet, and took out a photo.There is a grey-haired old man on the top, thin but hale and hearty, with clarity in his gray eyes. Behind him are other dazzling artworks and antiques. Beside him stands a 10-year-old oriental boy with a smile on his face. Indifference and awkwardness towards the camera that don't belong to this age.Guan Jin stroked the photo lightly with his fingers, "Old man, I almost went to be your company. But God doesn't seem to want to accept me. Didn't you make a deal with him?"

Imagining the old man bargaining with God, a smile appeared on Guan Jin's face.

At this time, there was a noise downstairs, and Tony came back.

"Hey, how is your rest? I'm not here tomorrow. I'm free today. It's only two o'clock. Do you want to go to Ethan's place?" Tony said cautiously at the end.

Guan Jin didn't show any expression, it doesn't matter if he sees it or not, it's just a tombstone. "Go."

The car drove to an old cemetery in the suburbs of New York and stopped.In the afternoon, the sky suddenly became gloomy, and the scenery of the cemetery was even more solemn and bleak.

Sitting in the car, Guan Jin looked at Tony who had already got out of the car, his face twitched a little: "You didn't bury them together, did you?"

"Why? There's no place next to the old man. I finally found a good place for Ethan in the corner." Tony looked like he didn't need to appreciate me.

Guan Jin had no expectations for that good position.

Guan Jin didn't rush to see his own tomb first, but went to the old man's tomb.He brushed a dead leaf off the tombstone with his hand, and looked at the epitaph engraved on the tomb: This is a free man, and he will still be after death.After standing silently for a while, he signaled Tony to leave.

Walking to a short tree in the northeast corner of the cemetery, "I said, do you want me to avoid it for a while, so you can cry happily or something." Tony asked thoughtfully.

Guan Jin didn't answer, he looked at the gray tombstone with only one name and date in confusion.Is he buried here?What is it like now?Bone-strewn or rotting?

Guan Jin had no sense of reality, he suddenly took two steps forward and pressed on the tombstone.He hadn't seen himself after death, and he probably wouldn't be much better than those he had killed, but before he saw the bones, he still seemed to have a hope that one day he could go back to the past.No, he had to see it before he could give up. He didn't believe that he was rotten, so he just fell asleep in the cold soil.

"Go find a shovel, two." Guan Jin clasped his fingers firmly on the stone tablet.

"What?" Tony didn't understand.

"Go, anything, anyone who can dig here. Anything!" Guan Jin roared.

Tony was taken aback, and he asked dumbfoundedly: "Dig it out? Are you crazy! You can't even dig him up alive! I saw him buried with my own eyes. He is really dead. Shut up."

"I don't believe it! How the hell could I be buried in such a damned place, there is not even a single bird here! Damn it, damn it!" Guan Jin kicked the tombstone like crazy, and was hugged by Tony. Live and drag back.

"Hey, calm down! Everyone is going to die, the soul has gone to see God, and what is buried here is just the body."

"Bullshit god, I'm not dead yet, I'm still fucking standing here! Still standing here!"

Guan Jin broke free from Tony's restraint, turned around and panted heavily, staring at Tony like a beast with red eyes.

"What, what?" Poor Tony felt as if he had just heard something terrible, and his mind was a little knotted.

Guan Jin vented a bit, and gradually calmed down.He sat down in front of the tombstone, leaning against the stone tablet, and fell silent.

After a long while, Guan Jin said slowly, "Dude, I'm still alive, I'm not dead."

Tony had a bloody look on his face.Well, actually, it really is hell.

Outside a cafe in the town where the cemetery is located.

"It sounds like a fairy tale." Tony calmed his frightened little heart with ice lemonade, "Are you sure you don't miss too much and have a split personality?"

Guan Jin gave him a slap in the face, "Sooner or later you will die from this stinky mouth."

"Hey, don't curse me." Tony sighed, and then remembered to look at Guan Jin carefully, "Tsk tsk, look at your small appearance now, if I take you out of the scene, they must think that I have changed sex, start Obsessed with little boys."

"This is the best way." Guan Jin unexpectedly didn't attack, "No one will associate me with Hei Xiao. They can't even dream of it. I live in another body."

Tony raised his eyebrows: "You came back with me to start a revenge plan."

"Didn't you come back for this?"

"Sure enough, you still understand me, good man, let's have a drink!"

Tony contacted some people in the organization and wanted to find out about the spider from the side.Guan Jin can only stay in the villa, he really wants to go back to his apartment in Queens to get some things, but it is not wise to go back in this state.

Before coming here, Guan Jin always felt that his life was like a realistic dream, or that he was acting in a real and lengthy play. One day the dream would wake up and the play would end.But at the moment when he saw his tombstone, he realized that he would never wake up.The traces of the past 30 years were completely obliterated by a bullet. Since then, there has been one less black owl in the world, and one more Guan Jin who doesn't know who he really is.No matter how strong his heart was, at this cruel moment when he was face to face with his own bones, he couldn't help but lose control of his anger.

Tony asked him what he planned to do in the future, he laughed at himself, the future was too illusory to him, all he thought about was the present.He wants to bring back the price of those who obliterated his life.In the eyes of others, he is just a puppet attached to the organization, but he himself knows that the organization is just a mutually beneficial intermediary for him, and he never takes it seriously.He doesn't want to use those hidden powers lightly, but just wants to be alone and seek peace, but the matter has come to this point, and he can't help himself.In the eyes of the other party, he was just a little killer used to scare chickens and monkeys. Unfortunately, they underestimated him, and it was really a huge mistake to provoke the owl of the night.
