Warm Water Spirits

As the memory deepened and the hidden self-protection became more acute, Jiang Yunqi suddenly realized at a certain moment——

Someone is stalking himself.

More than one person.

Almost immediately, Jiang Yunqi knew that there must be someone arranged by Jiang Zhenghe, and it wasn't very difficult to tell them apart after a little observation.

Because one of the stalkers made him feel like a caretaker.

Through the rearview mirror of the vehicle, the reflector at the intersection, or the glass of the shopping mall, Jiang Yunqi carefully looked at the man who occasionally drinks a cup of milk tea, occasionally smokes a cigarette, occasionally leans against the wall and yawns. Uncle Nian.

It looks no different from the pedestrians around it.But Jiang Yunqi felt that he should have served in the military based on the familiarity in his memory.Not less than three years in time.

Appearance can hide some things, especially when it is still, it makes people feel the same.But once in action, the standard action of checking back, front, left, and right, paying special attention to sudden sounds and crowds, and the vigilant action of touching the back waist with one hand when dealing with emergencies——for so many years in Suihu, Jiang Yunqi I have long been familiar with the military's set of behavior patterns.

Thinking about it further, it is not difficult to guess the motives of the people behind the arrangements.

Jiang Zhenghe is currently on the run, and there should be no other person in this world who is closely related to him except himself.

The middle-aged uncle didn't seem to know that the oriole was behind, but the one arranged by Jiang Zhenghe obviously knew of the existence of the middle-aged uncle.In many cases, they deliberately hide their traces, and their behavior is surreptitious and unpredictable, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

If it wasn't for Jiang Yunqi who was too familiar with the operations of Jiang Zhenghe's gang - he had used them before - he would not have noticed the existence of such a stalker at all.

At the end of the game, Jiang Yunqi went to that street again.

The small supermarket is not closed.

Jiang Yunqi went in and bought a box of playing cards, drew out an ace of spades, folded it in half slowly according to the shape he got, and looked at it for a long time.After doing this, he threw the remaining box of playing cards into the trash can and put the Ace of Spades he made into his pocket.

After that, on the way back, the No.2 stalker never appeared again—he had already got the information he wanted: Jiang Yunqi would come to see Jiang Zhenghe.

The middle-aged uncle didn't know what Jiang Yunqi was doing. When he found out, it was already a week later.

This scene was recorded in the encrypted email sent to Pei Zhe.

Pei Zhe restricted Jiang Yunqi's freedom the next day.

And what Jiang Yunqi said about breaking his leg almost came true.

When Jiang Yunqi got home, Aunt Song called him into the study when she heard the door open.

The live broadcast of Jedi Sniper defaults to the barrage mode. Aunt Song said that she was not comfortable watching it at all, "It's all floating on it! What a mess!"

Jiang Yunqi smiled, "It's all over, why don't you watch it again after closing it?"

Aunt Song insisted on watching it again, right after dinner.

He didn't take off his coat after entering the door.

At this moment, Jiang Yunqi took off his coat and went to close the bullet screen. Aunt Song happened to take it and took it out of the study to hang it up.

After that, Jiang Yunqi sat down and prepared to do homework for the winter vacation.

It's full of papers, Chinese, Mathematics, English, plus sub-subjects, it's scary enough to pile up.Back then, Lin Xiyao asked Jiang Yunqi how much he had made, and Jiang Yunqi said he hadn't started yet.Lin Xiyao stared at him for a long time without a word.

When Aunt Song was hanging his clothes in the hallway, she raised her voice and asked a few words, how was the game going, how were his teammates, and whether he was happy.

Jiang Yunqi answered all the same.

Aunt Song lost her voice in the middle of the journey, and Jiang Yunqi got into a state of reading English, and didn't notice it for a while, thinking that Aunt Song was cooking.

Aunt Song looked worriedly at the cigarettes she took out from Jiang Yunqi's jacket. The plastic packaging was crumpled, and it looked like it had been put in her hands countless times.

Several times of psychological construction failed, and Aunt Song anxiously looked at Jiang Yunqi, who was immersed in homework several times, pondered for a while, then turned around and went to make a phone call.

The phone didn't get through.

Aunt Song went back and sniffed Jiang Yunqi's coat carefully inside and out. There was really a very faint smell of smoke, and her complexion became very bad. Turning around, she saw that Jiang Yunqi was really serious about her homework, so she didn't ask any questions in the end.

After dinner here, Pei Zhe called.

Jiang Yunqi jumped out like a rabbit and asked if it was Brother Pei.

Aunt Song rarely looked stern, "Go back and do your homework well. I have something to say to Mr. Pei."

Jiang Yunqi squinted and smiled, without thinking much at all, "Then you don't watch the live broadcast?"

Aunt Song was upset and wanted to say a few words, but when she saw that painful little face, she reluctantly said, "Auntie will watch later. Yun Qi will go back to do her homework first."

Jiang Yunqi bargained coquettishly: "Can I talk after I finish talking?"

"Your brother will call you when you finish your homework."

Aunt Song looked at him seriously, Jiang Yunqi didn't understand, but she was very obedient: "Oh."

"Mr. Pei." Aunt Song was very cautious.

On the other end of the phone, Pei Zhe had just left the meeting, and Yu Chengan was tidying up materials on the table, and there was a little noise in the background.

Aunt Song's tone made Pei Zhe return to the negotiating table again, "What's wrong?"

Aunt Song glanced back at the closed door of the study, and sighed, "I found a pack of cigarettes in Yunqi's pocket. His clothes also smelled."

Pei Zhe didn't expect it, and paused slightly, "What did Yun Qi say?"

"I haven't asked yet." Aunt Song hesitated: "I guess it's because the pressure of the competition is too much? Or maybe it's the pressure of the third year of high school. I see that his desk is full of papers, which is too much..."

Pei Zhe walked to the tea room, "I'll ask him tonight."

Jiang Yunqi's lungs were injured, so he was already weaker than ordinary people.If you smoke, you are really ignorant, Pei Zhe's tone became a little darker.

Aunt Song felt that Pei Zhe's words were an understatement, "Ask?"

"Mr. Pei, no way—"

"Aunt Song, you can't get used to this."

I don't think that both ends of the phone misunderstood the meaning of the other party.

Aunt Song reacted angrily and amused, "Accustomed? Can I have the habit of Mr. Pei?"

"I said, you can't just ask about this matter! How can you just ask! Yun Qi is too ignorant! This child has healed and his scars have forgotten the pain. At this time last year, he was still taking oxygen in the hospital. Learn to smoke!"

"Used? What are you used to? Mr. Pei, it's you, ask, ask... Just ask? You have to be trained! You are really used to it!"

Pei Zhe: "..."

Aunt Song scolded the older one unceremoniously, then turned to look for Jiang Yunqi in the study, met the younger one's smiling face, and held back the words without paying attention, at the end, she suddenly felt that she had wronged Pei Zhe.

After Jiang Yunqi finished his homework, took a shower and climbed into bed with a towel on, Pei Zhe called.

Jiang Yunqi laughed as soon as he opened his mouth, "Brother Pei".

As soon as I heard it, I knew that Aunt Song didn't say anything at all.

Pei Zhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and the elders in the family also said one thing and thought the other.

"Yeah." Pei Zhe said directly, "Smoking?"

Jiang Yunqi said "ah", "What are you smoking?"

At this moment, he had thrown away the pack of cigarettes he bought in the small supermarket.

Hearing his inexplicable tone, Pei Zhe knew that Jiang Yunqi was not lying, so he was relieved and explained: "Aunt Song found a pack of cigarettes in your coat, let me ask you what's the matter."

Jiang Yunqi remembered, "Oh...it's nothing, someone gave it to me. Brother Pei, I don't smoke."

Pei Zhe didn't talk about it any more, "How was the game?"

When mentioning cigarettes, Jiang Yunqi was distracted.

What he made up his mind to do, at this time, he was repeatedly entangled in one point - Pei Zhe told him more than once that he should not make a decision alone, any decision should be discussed with him.

"Yun Qi?"

No one spoke on the other end of the phone for a long time, and the smiling voice did not appear again when the phone was connected. Pei Zhe smiled and said softly, "What's wrong?"

"Brother Pei..."

It's not that Jiang Yunqi didn't want to tell Pei Zhe what he was going to do, but it turned out that he didn't have to think about it, and Pei Zhe would definitely not agree.

Having dealt with Jiang Yunqi for too long, even if Pei Zhe only listened to his voice, he could detect Jiang Yunqi's very subtle mood swings.

"What did you do?"

Pei Zhe's words were clear, and as usual in the questioning, Jiang Yunqi's grasping power shocked Jiang Yunqi's heart.

"No, nothing."

Lying and denying this matter, as long as you start, you can only continue.

Jiang Yunqi quickly said: "It's nothing, really nothing. It's just that today's game was not very smooth. I made a mistake at the beginning and was eliminated before the end. Later, I missed half the game and was quite flustered. Fortunately, I won in the end. hey-hey……"

Pei Zhe believed that there was a ghost in him, so he focused on it firmly, "Why did you miss half the game?"

Jiang Yunqi: "..."

Fortunately, Pei Zhe couldn't see it.

Jiang Yunqi bumped his head on the bed at once, and his whole body was not well.

Is Pei Zhe human? !

"Brother Pei...I will never do bad things in my life."

"Not always."

Pei Zhe knew that he was changing the subject, so he was not in a hurry. Hearing this, he sneered, "I think you can do bad things at any time as long as your leg is not broken."

Jiang Yunqi: "..."

"Brother Pei is really ruthless."

Pei Zhe didn't talk nonsense with him, he would breastfeed endlessly, grinding and clinging, and he could be fooled by this little liar if he wasn't paying attention.I have to say, it's really a test of willpower.

"Say, what did you do?"

"Nothing. Nothing."

Jiang Yunqi couldn't fool Pei Zhe, so he could only play tricks on the writing.

What Pei Zhe asked was "what to do", but he really didn't do anything this time.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Yunqi was confident enough to speak righteously: "I swear, I didn't do anything. Nothing, nothing, nothing."

After the words fell, Pei Zhe didn't speak immediately.

After a while, amidst Pei Zhe's silence, Jiang Yun raised his heart in his throat.

It's not necessary to hide it from Pei Zhe, in fact, Pei Zhe will know sooner or later.Regardless of whether Pei Zhe agrees or not, Jiang Zhenghe must meet him.What Jiang Yunqi was worried about was that this time, with only one poker card, no one was alarmed.If you don't go to see him, then next time, Jiang Yunqi doesn't know if he will confront him and Pei Zhe in a terrifying way like he did in the finals in S city.

Although Jiang Yunqi didn't have much confidence in going to see Jiang Zhenghe, but if he didn't go, things would only develop in a direction beyond his control.

This is what he doesn't want to see.

So, let him keep it a secret this time.

After waiting for Pei Zhe to speak for too long, Jiang Yunqi's flustered heart gradually calmed down somehow.

After a long time, Jiang Yunqi whispered into the phone: "Brother Pei, I can't bear you."

The sound was too soft, Pei Zhe closed his eyes and held back for a while before saying, "Then be good."
