you are my tomorrow
Chapter 71
Before the concert was over, Han Qing took Meng Qinghuan and left the venue early. Meng Qinghuan was a little bit unsatisfied. It was the first time he heard such a concert, but seeing Han Qing's expression was serious, and he didn't talk to himself in the car. , Meng Qinghuan didn't dare to say that he was a little disappointed. When he got out of the car, Han Qing just smiled reluctantly and waved to him, and then left quickly. Meng Qinghuan didn't know what happened, but he could keep smiling This is the first time that Han Qing is so serious. Meng Qinghuan still feels a little uncomfortable, feeling... like being used, and he dare not mention it to Han Qing. In fact, during the days when he didn't see Han Qing, He was looking forward to Han Qing going to the clinic or his house every day, and it would be good to contact him. Although he didn't let Han Qing take him home at the beginning, Han Qing never appeared in front of him after that day and before today. Not even a phone call.
Meng Qinghuan felt that she must be crazy.
Han Qing drove to the box of the cafe, Zhongyi and Comet were already waiting inside, seeing him coming in, Comet who was sitting on the sofa greeted himself, although the smile was always on his face, but it was very reluctant, Han Qing Sitting next to Comet, the two shook hands. He and Zhong Yi took turns asking about Comet’s situation at Zhao Rongzhen’s house, but Comet said very little. Although he didn’t live well, it wasn’t too bad. He just knew that Comet could no longer play the piano. When it happened, both of them were startled, and then their hearts sank.
Nearly midnight, the three of them left the cafe. Zhongyi and Comet told Han Qing to be careful. Han Qing said that the mission was almost completed and he would go home to join them soon. Before Han Qing left, Zhongyi remembered seeing him today. Han Qing's "friend" asked one more question.
It was difficult for Han Qing to define what kind of "friend" Meng Qinghuan was. He couldn't think of an answer for a while, "...it is a very 'special' friend, and I will introduce it to you when I have a chance." After speaking, Han Qing drove away in a hurry Only the astonished Comet and Zhongyi remained.
On the way home for the two of them, Comet seemed to be sleepy. He fell asleep shortly after getting in the car. Zhongyi drove at a constant speed on the lonely road home. There were only street lights and cars passing by his car occasionally. Zhongyi saw Looking at Comet sleeping next to him, he finally calmed down. Every time Comet went out to complete a mission, Zhongyi was not worried. For some reason, he was extremely worried this time. Maybe he felt guilty for not taking Comet with him at the time. Bar.
But, finally, Comet returned to her side, and the heart that had been hanging for a long time was finally let go.
At the door of the house, Zhongyi didn't have the heart to wake Comet up, and was afraid that he would be cold, so he turned on the heater in the car and covered him with his own coat. In the quiet car, Comet fell asleep peacefully, and Zhongyi was smiling. Looking at Comet, it seems like when two people were tired after training when they were young, they would lie side by side on the lawn to rest. Comet would always rest his hands under his head and close his eyes, and Zhongyi would always lie on his side, resting his head with one hand Watching the comet quietly.
However, this tranquility did not last long, and was cut by the ringtone of Zhongyi's mobile phone. Comet also woke up, and Zhongyi pressed the answer button in a little disappointment, "Aunt Miho, what's the matter?...I got it, I've arrived at the door, immediately Go in...en." Zhongyi hung up the phone, glanced at the sleepy-eyed Comet, "I told Aunt Miho to rescue you today, she is still waiting for you, get out of the car."
The two got out of the car and entered the house. Miho was already waiting at the door. As soon as Comet walked in, he stepped forward and hugged him, tears streaming down his face, "You child, you are so worried about me," Miho looked up. After seeing that the comet was intact, she felt relieved, "It's good when I'm back, it's good when I'm back..." Miho patted her chest.
"Aunt Miho, I'm fine." Comet smiled faintly, "But I'm a little tired, you should go to bed earlier, it's past 1 o'clock."
Miho nodded, let go of Comet, and let him change his shoes into the house, but she felt that Comet seemed a little different, at least to her, every time he came back from a mission, no matter how late, Comet would ask her to make him a bowl Noodles, but not this time.
"He doesn't seem to be in a good mood, what happened?" Miho asked Zhongyi who was changing shoes, Zhongyi paused with his head down.
"His shoulder injury has recurred, and he won't be able to play the piano anymore, so he's in a bad mood." Miho was stunned when he heard the news, and couldn't help but feel sad. She knew how much Comet loved the piano.
Returning to the comet in the room, facing the familiar layout and atmosphere, he felt a little strange sitting by the bed. Instead, he thought of Zhao Rongzhen’s bedroom and sofa, and he couldn’t help sighing. What would he think, would he look for himself, Huixing remembered that before the concert, Zhao Rongzhen said "don't forget me" in his ear, as if he knew that he would leave, and remembered that Han Qing came backstage, just now he forgot Ask Han Qing why he knew Zhao Rongzhen.
Comet sat by the bed and only turned on the bedside lamp. Maybe the light was too dim, and it couldn't illuminate his mood. He looked at the boundless night outside the window, and his heart sank into the boundless darkness.
After the concert, Zhao Rongzhen drank some wine, then secretly left from the celebration banquet. When he came out of the hotel, there was a familiar car parked at the door, and he looked through the window. Zhang Wei was looking at him with a smile. Also responded with the same smile.
"He's gone? You let him go?" On the way to send Zhao Rongzhen home, Zhang Wei knew the news that Comet had escaped. For a while, he didn't know whether to be happy or find a way to get him back.
"That's right..." Zhao Rongzhen's muffled voice sounded after a few seconds of contemplation. The car was driving in the downtown area, and when passing vehicles passed by their car, the headlights of the cars flashed past Zhao Rongzhen's face.
"What do you mean by 'is it right'? Don't you want to keep him useful?"
"Anyway, we have someone following Uncle Song's shipment now, so it's useless to keep him around." Zhao Rongzhen didn't drink very well, and felt dizzy after drinking a little, "But, help me get a gun tomorrow. , I want to take it with me."
"Hmm." Zhang Wei didn't say anything, just glanced at Zhao Rongzhen who was looking out the window, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
It was already midnight when we got home, Zhao Rongzhen left Zhang Wei to live in his house, Zhang Wei agreed without hesitation, the two went upstairs, Zhao Rongzhen opened the door, and let Zhang Wei in, as soon as he entered the room, Zhang Wei saw There was a pillow and a folded quilt, Zhao Rongzhen locked the door, and looked back at the pillow and quilt.
"Take it in, no one will use it anymore."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Rongzhen went back to the bedroom, Zhang Wei walked to the side of the sofa, sighed silently at the quilt on the sofa, picked it up and went back to the bedroom.
Comet came out of the bedroom at noon the next day. When he returned to the room last night, although he felt sleepy, he couldn’t fall asleep. Unsteady, I have been having some messy dreams, suddenly it was when I was rehearsing the piano with Zhao Rongzhen, and suddenly I was sitting in the front hall of a palace, admiring the fresh manjussa on the table Hua, the chaotic dream makes Comet feel groggy even when he wakes up.
After waking up, Comet was a bit hungry, so he went downstairs and went directly to the kitchen. Zhongyi and Miho were sitting face to face at the dining table, chatting happily, seeing Comet coming in, they both smiled and looked at him.
"I'm going to make you noodles. I prepared noodles for you yesterday, but you didn't eat them." Miho got up and walked to the stove, and Comet stood next to Zhongyi.
"Auntie Miho, I don't want to eat noodles anymore, just do the same as you." Comet looked at some kimchi soup and side dishes left in front of Zhongyi, "Auntie Miho, do you have any rice? As long as there is rice, I will eat what Zhongyi left. "
"Huh?" Both Zhongyi and Miho looked at Comet who was putting the leftovers in front of them in surprise, but Comet had a calm face. He touched the soup pot, it was still warm.
"Is there no more rice?" Comet saw that the two of them had been silent for a long time, so he turned to look at Miho with a surprised face, "I'm really hungry..."
"Oh, and rice." Miho turned around and filled a bowl of rice, and placed it in front of Comet. The two quietly watched Comet chew and eat slowly. The moment of silence made Comet feel a little uncomfortable. He looked up. He glanced at the two of them, "What do you guys want to talk about and continue, don't all look at me."
"Now that you're back, Zhongyi is also happy. When he came back a while ago, he always had a sad face." Seeing Comet's return, Miho laughed unconsciously.
"I... How could I? Aunt Miho is the one?" Zhongyi immediately denied, "I'm also guilty because I didn't come back with Brother Comet, okay..." Zhongyi's voice became lower and lower, Comet glanced sideways at Zhongyi, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"I knew loyalty was the best for me, and I should be rewarded."
"Auntie Miho too." Zhongyi immediately looked at Miho with a smile, and Comet glanced at Miho, but the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared.
"...Yes." Comet took a sip of the soup, "In this world, Aunt Miho, you and Brother Han Qing are the best to me."
For a moment, Miho's expression was a bit complicated, but immediately changed into a smiling face.
"Who made you all my children?"
After dinner, Comet went to the study, and sent an email to Uncle Song to report what happened during this period. Although he didn’t get any useful information, neither of the initial tasks——Zhao Rongzhen’s arms channel and his life—had been completed. Instead, his identity was exposed. He had to say something. After all, this mission was a failure.
No, to be precise, from the very beginning, he was transparent to Zhao Rongzhen, and it wasn't until later that he revealed his identity. Comet hesitated for a while whether to tell Uncle Song about this, so that Uncle Song would know that there might be people around them. In the end, he still deleted the content about Zhao Rongzhen knowing his true identity from the beginning, and only said that he exposed his identity when he intercepted Zhao Rongzhen's arms.
I don't know what punishment Uncle Song will have for his mission failure this time. Comet also feels like his chest is blocked by something, not because of the failure of the mission, but because of the failure of the mission, but as if he lost something and cannot let go.
Later, Uncle Song replied to Comet’s email half a month later, and it was Tony who answered it for him. He said that Uncle Song was busy with a batch of munitions recently, and he didn’t have time to reply to the email, so he asked himself to reply, Song Uncle didn't blame much, last time Zhao Rongzhen's batch of goods was discounted in half as a punishment, and the remaining half will be discussed later, and let Comet rest for a while before giving him other tasks.
Comet was a little surprised that Uncle Song would skip his punishment so easily. After all, before the mission started, Uncle Song still gave him thousands of instructions. After the incident, it was so simple. Comet really didn't know that Uncle Song was there what to think.
However, for the past two weeks, Comet has not been able to sleep well every day. He always feels that even if he is sleepy, it is difficult to fall asleep. At Zhao Rongzhen's house, they were used to sleeping together, and even called Zhongyi to sleep together in his room, and went to Zhongyi's room by himself, but it didn't help.
Still having messy dreams, those dreams are almost not related to Zhao Rongzhen and the piano, but there are some things between the ancient self and Zhao Rongzhen, which bothers Comet very much, there has never been a "goal" that would affect him in the past, It's just that this time it's very different from before, and Comet's appetite is not very good, and the flesh that grew a little at Zhao Rongzhen's house has lost weight. Both Zhongyi and Miho can see that Miho cooks Comet's favorite food every day, But Comet, who seemed to be in a bad mood, only ate a little bit, and Zhongyi asked Comet to go to the hospital to check if he had any illness, but Comet kept saying that he was fine, but he didn't sleep very well.
Comet emailed Tony back, telling him to be on call at any time. The computer interface was stuck on the words "email has been sent". Comet stared at the screen for a long time, and didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't even know that Zhongyi had entered the door.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Zhongyi's voice made Comet tremble, and he turned his head to see Zhongyi sitting on the sofa by the window behind him.
"It's nothing." Comet shook his head, got up, walked to the sofa and sat down, resting his head on the back of the sofa and closing his eyes.
"What about your piano when you come back like this?"
For a long while, Comet did not speak. Zhongyi thought he was asleep, so he took off the thin blanket on the armrest of the sofa. As soon as it covered Comet, he raised his head, and instead of taking off the blanket, he curled up his legs and buried himself in the bed. Under the blanket, "Eric also changed the door lock of that house, I can't get in, let's talk about it."
In fact, Zhongyi wanted to ask what happened to Comet during these days, because when he saw Comet again, he felt that he was different from before. Where to ask, also had to give up.
"Did you know? Eric told me that he already knew me before he met me."
"There have always been rumors about the three of us on the Tao." Loyalty is not unusual, and Xixing knew that he didn't understand what he meant.
"I mean, before he met me, he'd seen my picture, and he knew the bookstore where I used to buy sheet music, and that's where we first met."
Zhongyi looked at Comet in surprise, "How? Our photos have never been published, how could he have your photo?" Comet turned his face and looked at Zhongyi with a little deep meaning, "...you mean, Do we have an inner ghost?" Zhongyi thought for a while, and expressed his thoughts half-believingly, Comet didn't nod, but his eyes confirmed Zhongyi's answer, "No, Uncle Song and Brother Han Qing definitely won't, our coach They all left when we went to Vietnam, and Tony was with Uncle Song every day..." Zhongyi murmured to himself, excluding the people around him, and finally there was only one person left, "You mean..." Comet muffled He closed Zhongyi's mouth, shook his head gently at him, and then let go, "How is it possible? She is just like our mother." Zhongyi lowered his voice and looked at Comet with disbelief, "Besides She doesn't know how to use a computer, how could she?"
"I'm not sure, and I can't believe it, but I really can't find anyone else who has a picture of us." Comet sighed softly, lowered his head, "Do you remember? Aunt Miho once told us , we are the only ones in this world who can trust Han Qing, no one else is worthy of our trust, even her, I didn't understand at first, but now, I seem to be beginning to understand."
Zhongyi felt that his hands and feet were slowly becoming cold and trembling slightly. At this time, Miho, who was holding the freshly baked cake, stood in despair outside the study door, her hand that was about to knock was still raised on the door. In the middle of the air before her, in the end, she still didn't knock down, turned and left.
In the past half a month, Zhao Rongzhen asked the team leader for annual leave, and slept at home for 2 days and 2 nights. Every time he got up and went to the living room to drink water, he would look to the other side of the bed, and when he found no one, he would go to the kitchen In the place connected to the living room, I glanced at the sofa and found that there was still no one there. Then I remembered that the comet had left. After repeated several times, I really remembered the fact that the comet had left.
Zhao Rongzhen spent the rest of the vacation in the company because he promised Zhang Wei that he would go to the company. In addition to contacting other arms business, he and Zhang Wei mainly waited for the news that Uncle Song had imported a batch of arms from the United States until At the end of the vacation, their informant also faxed a breakthrough news—the total value of this batch of goods was 2000 million US dollars. They set sail in two days and arrived in City I in about half a month. The name of the goods on the bill of lading was woolen toys.
Looking at the contents of the fax, Zhao Rongzhen finally fixed his eyes on the "wool toys", and he sneered disdainfully, "It really is a 'toy tycoon', even if it is arms, do you have to use children's toys as a cover?"
Zhao Rongzhen went home on the first weekend of the holiday. Zhao Qian also asked about his "friend". Zhao Rongzhen said that he was on vacation and his friend had returned to his hometown, and he would come back when he was at work.Zhao Rongzhen also asked Zhao Qian about the source of the information about the three killers of the Song Group, and whether the photos on the information had been passed on to him by Zhao Qian before. I sent him the photos, and only told him to be careful of the three people on the file, and not to try to associate with Uncle Song and his people. Zhao Rongzhen didn't go into the reason any further. He just thought that if his father knew that he had contacted the three people on the file, After meeting each other, and living with one of them for more than a month, I don't know if my father would think he was crazy.
As if on purpose, Zhao Rongzhen is busy at the company until midnight every day, sleeps in the company when he is tired, or asks Zhang Wei or the driver to take him home, he is a little afraid of going home, afraid of the empty house alone, afraid of going home Sometimes I can't see someone sleeping peacefully on the sofa, I'm afraid of having breakfast alone, I'm afraid...there is no one else in the co-pilot position.
Zhao Rongzhen felt that he must be crazy.
When Comet saw Uncle Song and Tony, about 20 days had passed. He had just gotten used to the life at home. He dreamed that when Zhao Rongzhen’s nights were shrinking, Uncle Song, who seemed more ruthless than before, gave His task made him fall into confusion and confusion again - he must get the Tiger Gang's arms purchase channel, as well as the lives of Zhao Rongzhen and Zhao Qian, the time limit is as long as it can be completed, it can be as long as it takes.
"...Uncle Song, as you know, Zhao Rongzhen already knows my identity, how can I go back to him..." Comet really couldn't understand Uncle Song, Tony who was standing beside him shook his head secretly at Comet , to signal him not to contradict Uncle Song.
"This is your punishment. If you don't accept it, you have to accept it." Uncle Song's face was sullen, and the scar on his face seemed to be getting deeper. Comet lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Uncle Song, but resisted silently. He was afraid of going back to the days when he couldn't sleep well every day.
After a short silence, Tony still spoke, "Last month, sir, he imported a batch of arms from the United States, but because of an insider, the shipment was robbed after it arrived in Hong Kong a few days ago. Brother, someone saw the The person with the tiger head logo is at the port, so it is speculated that the tiger gang intercepted the goods, probably to avenge the last time." Tony briefly described what happened a few days ago, he said that the ghost Comet thought of Miho all of a sudden, these days he had been observing her secretly, but he didn't find anything, so he still suppressed it, because he wasn't sure, or rather, didn't want to be sure.
"Then how do I get close to Zhao Rongzhen..."
"You figure it out on your own, what I can do is to save you when you are dying." Uncle Song opened the drawer at hand, took out a necklace from it, and threw it to Comet, "Don't throw it away again. "
Comet fastened the necklace, "Uncle Song, must I go? If punishment is required, can it be included in the next mission?" Comet looked at Uncle Song beggingly.
"You go out, there is no need to discuss, the mission will start next week." Song Shu raised his hand, signaling Comet to go out.
"I..." Comet wanted to say something, but seeing Uncle Song's serious expression, he and Tony signaled him not to say any more, so he could only leave the study.
Zhongyi and Miho were surprised when they heard that Comet would go back to Zhao Rongzhen again, everyone thought it was an impossible task, Comet could only smile wryly, and his heart was pounding.
After dinner, Tony called Comet into the garden, and the two walked along the path lit by street lamps.
"Mr. attaches great importance to this batch of goods, but it is normal to be unwilling to be intercepted by the Tiger Gang. Recently, Mr. is feeling restless, so you should stop putting the blame on him, and he will be even angrier." Tony put his hands in his trouser pockets, slowly Walking down the corridor, Comet followed behind him.
"Uncle Song has assigned a mission, and I have to accept it. Now I'm just thinking about how I can return to Zhao Rongzhen's side and gain his trust. But are arms so important to Uncle Song?"
"Everyone on the road knows that the Tiger Gang's arms are the most advanced. There are also rumors that the military department and the Tiger Gang have arms deals. This is one of the reasons why the Tiger Gang has been able to stand firm for 30 years. When Han Qing comes back, he It will also bring back an important drug production and sales chain, if the Tiger Gang's arms and this drug industry chain are all under the banner of Mr. Song, the kingdom of the Song Group will be almost unmatched." Comet stared blankly With a glance at Tony, it was the first time he heard about the Song Group from Tony so formally. They never knew that Uncle Song had such ambitions, "However, in the past month or so, you have nothing What? It's a bit inappropriate." Tony glanced at Comet, his tone a bit harsh.
Comet recalled his previous life at Zhao Rongzhen’s house. It seemed to be the most relaxing day in the past 20 years. Although he was grounded, he lived a life without thinking about anything every day. He even occasionally thought that such a life was not bad. It's just that he can't talk to others.
"I can't figure out Zhao Rongzhen's thoughts. It's unrealistic to say that he absolutely believes in me, otherwise he wouldn't let me lose contact with the outside world. If he doesn't believe me at all, it doesn't seem to be the case. He once had an idea He took me to his old house to meet his father, but he might have thought of my identity, and went back home halfway, so I still can't figure him out for the time being."
Tony seemed to be thinking about something, and at the end there was only one conclusion: "Zhao Rongzhen is just like his father, with uncertainties." Comet raised his eyebrows.
"Have you ever had contact with Zhao Qian?"
"No...no, I just heard that." A trace of hesitation flashed in Tony's eyes, but it disappeared immediately, but the comet caught it.
The two kept walking slowly in the garden, "Tony, when did you start working with Uncle Song? When did Auntie Miho come here?"
"I started doing things on my own with my husband, and I followed him about a year later. When I followed him, Miho was already his nanny. Later, he made a plan to train killers. In fact, Han Qing was only older than you." It was included in the husband's plan for two years. At that time, the Song Group was still on the rise, and the husband's residence was uncertain, but his main residence was in the United States, so Han Qing was sent there. In the next year, the Song Group passed the toy The business has achieved great success, and my husband also bought the current villa in China, and after adopting you in the orphanage, he also let Miho live in China, mainly to take care of you." Tony told Uncle Song's past in a low voice Only then did Comet discover that he didn't know anything about Uncle Song. He only knew that Uncle Song used the toy business to cover up the arms and drug trade and trained the three of them to be killers.
"According to what you said, Uncle Song didn't do it by himself from the beginning, but was hired by someone? Do you know who that person is?"
Tony stopped, looked at Comet and smiled faintly, "You seem to have changed a little bit. Today, you seem to have a lot of problems. You were not like this before. You seem to have no interest in anything except the piano." Comet was embarrassed. He lowered his head and grinned, "I'm a little tired, but I can answer your question. Is there anything else I want to ask?" But Tony didn't seem to be bored, he still looked at the comet peacefully.
"...What kind of person was Auntie Miho before? Why would you be willing to follow Uncle Song for so many years without getting married?" Comet thought for a while and asked cautiously.
"It's two questions." Tony smiled faintly, and continued to walk forward. Comet followed him step by step, waiting for the answer. "Mr. was a soldier before, and Miho was his comrade's wife. The comrade in arms sacrificed to protect him, so it was the husband who brought the news to Miho. The heartbroken Miho thought that she would have no children anyway, so she wanted to die. The husband saved her. After retiring, he said that he would do a great job , Let her be your nanny, although there is no love between the two of you, but out of gratitude, Miho has been following your husband and doing her best to take care of you and Zhongyi, plus later Han Qing."
Tony's words caused Huixing to fall into chaos again. If Uncle Song was Miho's savior, she couldn't betray Uncle Song. Then who sent the photos that Zhao Rongzhen had seen?On the second day after I came back, why did Miho at the dining table feel a little flustered again?Who would the inner ghost be?
Meng Qinghuan felt that she must be crazy.
Han Qing drove to the box of the cafe, Zhongyi and Comet were already waiting inside, seeing him coming in, Comet who was sitting on the sofa greeted himself, although the smile was always on his face, but it was very reluctant, Han Qing Sitting next to Comet, the two shook hands. He and Zhong Yi took turns asking about Comet’s situation at Zhao Rongzhen’s house, but Comet said very little. Although he didn’t live well, it wasn’t too bad.

But, finally, Comet returned to her side, and the heart that had been hanging for a long time was finally let go.

The two got out of the car and entered the house. Miho was already waiting at the door. As soon as Comet walked in, he stepped forward and hugged him, tears streaming down his face, "You child, you are so worried about me," Miho looked up. After seeing that the comet was intact, she felt relieved, "It's good when I'm back, it's good when I'm back..." Miho patted her chest.
"Aunt Miho, I'm fine." Comet smiled faintly, "But I'm a little tired, you should go to bed earlier, it's past 1 o'clock."
Miho nodded, let go of Comet, and let him change his shoes into the house, but she felt that Comet seemed a little different, at least to her, every time he came back from a mission, no matter how late, Comet would ask her to make him a bowl Noodles, but not this time.
"He doesn't seem to be in a good mood, what happened?" Miho asked Zhongyi who was changing shoes, Zhongyi paused with his head down.
"His shoulder injury has recurred, and he won't be able to play the piano anymore, so he's in a bad mood." Miho was stunned when he heard the news, and couldn't help but feel sad. She knew how much Comet loved the piano.

"Hmm." Zhang Wei didn't say anything, just glanced at Zhao Rongzhen who was looking out the window, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
It was already midnight when we got home, Zhao Rongzhen left Zhang Wei to live in his house, Zhang Wei agreed without hesitation, the two went upstairs, Zhao Rongzhen opened the door, and let Zhang Wei in, as soon as he entered the room, Zhang Wei saw There was a pillow and a folded quilt, Zhao Rongzhen locked the door, and looked back at the pillow and quilt.
"Take it in, no one will use it anymore."
After finishing speaking, Zhao Rongzhen went back to the bedroom, Zhang Wei walked to the side of the sofa, sighed silently at the quilt on the sofa, picked it up and went back to the bedroom.
Comet came out of the bedroom at noon the next day. When he returned to the room last night, although he felt sleepy, he couldn’t fall asleep. Unsteady, I have been having some messy dreams, suddenly it was when I was rehearsing the piano with Zhao Rongzhen, and suddenly I was sitting in the front hall of a palace, admiring the fresh manjussa on the table Hua, the chaotic dream makes Comet feel groggy even when he wakes up.
After waking up, Comet was a bit hungry, so he went downstairs and went directly to the kitchen. Zhongyi and Miho were sitting face to face at the dining table, chatting happily, seeing Comet coming in, they both smiled and looked at him.
"I'm going to make you noodles. I prepared noodles for you yesterday, but you didn't eat them." Miho got up and walked to the stove, and Comet stood next to Zhongyi.
"Auntie Miho, I don't want to eat noodles anymore, just do the same as you." Comet looked at some kimchi soup and side dishes left in front of Zhongyi, "Auntie Miho, do you have any rice? As long as there is rice, I will eat what Zhongyi left. "
"Huh?" Both Zhongyi and Miho looked at Comet who was putting the leftovers in front of them in surprise, but Comet had a calm face. He touched the soup pot, it was still warm.
"Is there no more rice?" Comet saw that the two of them had been silent for a long time, so he turned to look at Miho with a surprised face, "I'm really hungry..."
"Oh, and rice." Miho turned around and filled a bowl of rice, and placed it in front of Comet. The two quietly watched Comet chew and eat slowly. The moment of silence made Comet feel a little uncomfortable. He looked up. He glanced at the two of them, "What do you guys want to talk about and continue, don't all look at me."
"Now that you're back, Zhongyi is also happy. When he came back a while ago, he always had a sad face." Seeing Comet's return, Miho laughed unconsciously.
"I... How could I? Aunt Miho is the one?" Zhongyi immediately denied, "I'm also guilty because I didn't come back with Brother Comet, okay..." Zhongyi's voice became lower and lower, Comet glanced sideways at Zhongyi, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"I knew loyalty was the best for me, and I should be rewarded."
"Auntie Miho too." Zhongyi immediately looked at Miho with a smile, and Comet glanced at Miho, but the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared.
"...Yes." Comet took a sip of the soup, "In this world, Aunt Miho, you and Brother Han Qing are the best to me."
For a moment, Miho's expression was a bit complicated, but immediately changed into a smiling face.
"Who made you all my children?"
After dinner, Comet went to the study, and sent an email to Uncle Song to report what happened during this period. Although he didn’t get any useful information, neither of the initial tasks——Zhao Rongzhen’s arms channel and his life—had been completed. Instead, his identity was exposed. He had to say something. After all, this mission was a failure.
No, to be precise, from the very beginning, he was transparent to Zhao Rongzhen, and it wasn't until later that he revealed his identity. Comet hesitated for a while whether to tell Uncle Song about this, so that Uncle Song would know that there might be people around them. In the end, he still deleted the content about Zhao Rongzhen knowing his true identity from the beginning, and only said that he exposed his identity when he intercepted Zhao Rongzhen's arms.
I don't know what punishment Uncle Song will have for his mission failure this time. Comet also feels like his chest is blocked by something, not because of the failure of the mission, but because of the failure of the mission, but as if he lost something and cannot let go.
Later, Uncle Song replied to Comet’s email half a month later, and it was Tony who answered it for him. He said that Uncle Song was busy with a batch of munitions recently, and he didn’t have time to reply to the email, so he asked himself to reply, Song Uncle didn't blame much, last time Zhao Rongzhen's batch of goods was discounted in half as a punishment, and the remaining half will be discussed later, and let Comet rest for a while before giving him other tasks.
Comet was a little surprised that Uncle Song would skip his punishment so easily. After all, before the mission started, Uncle Song still gave him thousands of instructions. After the incident, it was so simple. Comet really didn't know that Uncle Song was there what to think.
However, for the past two weeks, Comet has not been able to sleep well every day. He always feels that even if he is sleepy, it is difficult to fall asleep. At Zhao Rongzhen's house, they were used to sleeping together, and even called Zhongyi to sleep together in his room, and went to Zhongyi's room by himself, but it didn't help.
Still having messy dreams, those dreams are almost not related to Zhao Rongzhen and the piano, but there are some things between the ancient self and Zhao Rongzhen, which bothers Comet very much, there has never been a "goal" that would affect him in the past, It's just that this time it's very different from before, and Comet's appetite is not very good, and the flesh that grew a little at Zhao Rongzhen's house has lost weight. Both Zhongyi and Miho can see that Miho cooks Comet's favorite food every day, But Comet, who seemed to be in a bad mood, only ate a little bit, and Zhongyi asked Comet to go to the hospital to check if he had any illness, but Comet kept saying that he was fine, but he didn't sleep very well.
Comet emailed Tony back, telling him to be on call at any time. The computer interface was stuck on the words "email has been sent". Comet stared at the screen for a long time, and didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't even know that Zhongyi had entered the door.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Zhongyi's voice made Comet tremble, and he turned his head to see Zhongyi sitting on the sofa by the window behind him.
"It's nothing." Comet shook his head, got up, walked to the sofa and sat down, resting his head on the back of the sofa and closing his eyes.
"What about your piano when you come back like this?"
For a long while, Comet did not speak. Zhongyi thought he was asleep, so he took off the thin blanket on the armrest of the sofa. As soon as it covered Comet, he raised his head, and instead of taking off the blanket, he curled up his legs and buried himself in the bed. Under the blanket, "Eric also changed the door lock of that house, I can't get in, let's talk about it."
In fact, Zhongyi wanted to ask what happened to Comet during these days, because when he saw Comet again, he felt that he was different from before. Where to ask, also had to give up.
"Did you know? Eric told me that he already knew me before he met me."
"There have always been rumors about the three of us on the Tao." Loyalty is not unusual, and Xixing knew that he didn't understand what he meant.
"I mean, before he met me, he'd seen my picture, and he knew the bookstore where I used to buy sheet music, and that's where we first met."
Zhongyi looked at Comet in surprise, "How? Our photos have never been published, how could he have your photo?" Comet turned his face and looked at Zhongyi with a little deep meaning, "...you mean, Do we have an inner ghost?" Zhongyi thought for a while, and expressed his thoughts half-believingly, Comet didn't nod, but his eyes confirmed Zhongyi's answer, "No, Uncle Song and Brother Han Qing definitely won't, our coach They all left when we went to Vietnam, and Tony was with Uncle Song every day..." Zhongyi murmured to himself, excluding the people around him, and finally there was only one person left, "You mean..." Comet muffled He closed Zhongyi's mouth, shook his head gently at him, and then let go, "How is it possible? She is just like our mother." Zhongyi lowered his voice and looked at Comet with disbelief, "Besides She doesn't know how to use a computer, how could she?"
"I'm not sure, and I can't believe it, but I really can't find anyone else who has a picture of us." Comet sighed softly, lowered his head, "Do you remember? Aunt Miho once told us , we are the only ones in this world who can trust Han Qing, no one else is worthy of our trust, even her, I didn't understand at first, but now, I seem to be beginning to understand."
Zhongyi felt that his hands and feet were slowly becoming cold and trembling slightly. At this time, Miho, who was holding the freshly baked cake, stood in despair outside the study door, her hand that was about to knock was still raised on the door. In the middle of the air before her, in the end, she still didn't knock down, turned and left.
In the past half a month, Zhao Rongzhen asked the team leader for annual leave, and slept at home for 2 days and 2 nights. Every time he got up and went to the living room to drink water, he would look to the other side of the bed, and when he found no one, he would go to the kitchen In the place connected to the living room, I glanced at the sofa and found that there was still no one there. Then I remembered that the comet had left. After repeated several times, I really remembered the fact that the comet had left.
Zhao Rongzhen spent the rest of the vacation in the company because he promised Zhang Wei that he would go to the company. In addition to contacting other arms business, he and Zhang Wei mainly waited for the news that Uncle Song had imported a batch of arms from the United States until At the end of the vacation, their informant also faxed a breakthrough news—the total value of this batch of goods was 2000 million US dollars. They set sail in two days and arrived in City I in about half a month. The name of the goods on the bill of lading was woolen toys.
Looking at the contents of the fax, Zhao Rongzhen finally fixed his eyes on the "wool toys", and he sneered disdainfully, "It really is a 'toy tycoon', even if it is arms, do you have to use children's toys as a cover?"
Zhao Rongzhen went home on the first weekend of the holiday. Zhao Qian also asked about his "friend". Zhao Rongzhen said that he was on vacation and his friend had returned to his hometown, and he would come back when he was at work.Zhao Rongzhen also asked Zhao Qian about the source of the information about the three killers of the Song Group, and whether the photos on the information had been passed on to him by Zhao Qian before. I sent him the photos, and only told him to be careful of the three people on the file, and not to try to associate with Uncle Song and his people. Zhao Rongzhen didn't go into the reason any further. He just thought that if his father knew that he had contacted the three people on the file, After meeting each other, and living with one of them for more than a month, I don't know if my father would think he was crazy.
As if on purpose, Zhao Rongzhen is busy at the company until midnight every day, sleeps in the company when he is tired, or asks Zhang Wei or the driver to take him home, he is a little afraid of going home, afraid of the empty house alone, afraid of going home Sometimes I can't see someone sleeping peacefully on the sofa, I'm afraid of having breakfast alone, I'm afraid...there is no one else in the co-pilot position.
Zhao Rongzhen felt that he must be crazy.
When Comet saw Uncle Song and Tony, about 20 days had passed. He had just gotten used to the life at home. He dreamed that when Zhao Rongzhen’s nights were shrinking, Uncle Song, who seemed more ruthless than before, gave His task made him fall into confusion and confusion again - he must get the Tiger Gang's arms purchase channel, as well as the lives of Zhao Rongzhen and Zhao Qian, the time limit is as long as it can be completed, it can be as long as it takes.
"...Uncle Song, as you know, Zhao Rongzhen already knows my identity, how can I go back to him..." Comet really couldn't understand Uncle Song, Tony who was standing beside him shook his head secretly at Comet , to signal him not to contradict Uncle Song.
"This is your punishment. If you don't accept it, you have to accept it." Uncle Song's face was sullen, and the scar on his face seemed to be getting deeper. Comet lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Uncle Song, but resisted silently. He was afraid of going back to the days when he couldn't sleep well every day.
After a short silence, Tony still spoke, "Last month, sir, he imported a batch of arms from the United States, but because of an insider, the shipment was robbed after it arrived in Hong Kong a few days ago. Brother, someone saw the The person with the tiger head logo is at the port, so it is speculated that the tiger gang intercepted the goods, probably to avenge the last time." Tony briefly described what happened a few days ago, he said that the ghost Comet thought of Miho all of a sudden, these days he had been observing her secretly, but he didn't find anything, so he still suppressed it, because he wasn't sure, or rather, didn't want to be sure.
"Then how do I get close to Zhao Rongzhen..."
"You figure it out on your own, what I can do is to save you when you are dying." Uncle Song opened the drawer at hand, took out a necklace from it, and threw it to Comet, "Don't throw it away again. "
Comet fastened the necklace, "Uncle Song, must I go? If punishment is required, can it be included in the next mission?" Comet looked at Uncle Song beggingly.
"You go out, there is no need to discuss, the mission will start next week." Song Shu raised his hand, signaling Comet to go out.
"I..." Comet wanted to say something, but seeing Uncle Song's serious expression, he and Tony signaled him not to say any more, so he could only leave the study.
Zhongyi and Miho were surprised when they heard that Comet would go back to Zhao Rongzhen again, everyone thought it was an impossible task, Comet could only smile wryly, and his heart was pounding.
After dinner, Tony called Comet into the garden, and the two walked along the path lit by street lamps.
"Mr. attaches great importance to this batch of goods, but it is normal to be unwilling to be intercepted by the Tiger Gang. Recently, Mr. is feeling restless, so you should stop putting the blame on him, and he will be even angrier." Tony put his hands in his trouser pockets, slowly Walking down the corridor, Comet followed behind him.
"Uncle Song has assigned a mission, and I have to accept it. Now I'm just thinking about how I can return to Zhao Rongzhen's side and gain his trust. But are arms so important to Uncle Song?"
"Everyone on the road knows that the Tiger Gang's arms are the most advanced. There are also rumors that the military department and the Tiger Gang have arms deals. This is one of the reasons why the Tiger Gang has been able to stand firm for 30 years. When Han Qing comes back, he It will also bring back an important drug production and sales chain, if the Tiger Gang's arms and this drug industry chain are all under the banner of Mr. Song, the kingdom of the Song Group will be almost unmatched." Comet stared blankly With a glance at Tony, it was the first time he heard about the Song Group from Tony so formally. They never knew that Uncle Song had such ambitions, "However, in the past month or so, you have nothing What? It's a bit inappropriate." Tony glanced at Comet, his tone a bit harsh.
Comet recalled his previous life at Zhao Rongzhen’s house. It seemed to be the most relaxing day in the past 20 years. Although he was grounded, he lived a life without thinking about anything every day. He even occasionally thought that such a life was not bad. It's just that he can't talk to others.
"I can't figure out Zhao Rongzhen's thoughts. It's unrealistic to say that he absolutely believes in me, otherwise he wouldn't let me lose contact with the outside world. If he doesn't believe me at all, it doesn't seem to be the case. He once had an idea He took me to his old house to meet his father, but he might have thought of my identity, and went back home halfway, so I still can't figure him out for the time being."
Tony seemed to be thinking about something, and at the end there was only one conclusion: "Zhao Rongzhen is just like his father, with uncertainties." Comet raised his eyebrows.
"Have you ever had contact with Zhao Qian?"
"No...no, I just heard that." A trace of hesitation flashed in Tony's eyes, but it disappeared immediately, but the comet caught it.
The two kept walking slowly in the garden, "Tony, when did you start working with Uncle Song? When did Auntie Miho come here?"
"I started doing things on my own with my husband, and I followed him about a year later. When I followed him, Miho was already his nanny. Later, he made a plan to train killers. In fact, Han Qing was only older than you." It was included in the husband's plan for two years. At that time, the Song Group was still on the rise, and the husband's residence was uncertain, but his main residence was in the United States, so Han Qing was sent there. In the next year, the Song Group passed the toy The business has achieved great success, and my husband also bought the current villa in China, and after adopting you in the orphanage, he also let Miho live in China, mainly to take care of you." Tony told Uncle Song's past in a low voice Only then did Comet discover that he didn't know anything about Uncle Song. He only knew that Uncle Song used the toy business to cover up the arms and drug trade and trained the three of them to be killers.
"According to what you said, Uncle Song didn't do it by himself from the beginning, but was hired by someone? Do you know who that person is?"
Tony stopped, looked at Comet and smiled faintly, "You seem to have changed a little bit. Today, you seem to have a lot of problems. You were not like this before. You seem to have no interest in anything except the piano." Comet was embarrassed. He lowered his head and grinned, "I'm a little tired, but I can answer your question. Is there anything else I want to ask?" But Tony didn't seem to be bored, he still looked at the comet peacefully.
"...What kind of person was Auntie Miho before? Why would you be willing to follow Uncle Song for so many years without getting married?" Comet thought for a while and asked cautiously.
"It's two questions." Tony smiled faintly, and continued to walk forward. Comet followed him step by step, waiting for the answer. "Mr. was a soldier before, and Miho was his comrade's wife. The comrade in arms sacrificed to protect him, so it was the husband who brought the news to Miho. The heartbroken Miho thought that she would have no children anyway, so she wanted to die. The husband saved her. After retiring, he said that he would do a great job , Let her be your nanny, although there is no love between the two of you, but out of gratitude, Miho has been following your husband and doing her best to take care of you and Zhongyi, plus later Han Qing."
Tony's words caused Huixing to fall into chaos again. If Uncle Song was Miho's savior, she couldn't betray Uncle Song. Then who sent the photos that Zhao Rongzhen had seen?On the second day after I came back, why did Miho at the dining table feel a little flustered again?Who would the inner ghost be?
