Chapter 55 Fetters

Su Mo seemed to be tired, he didn't speak any more, just looked at the courtyard in a daze.

Lu Yuanhua sat on the floor in the corridor, his whole body seemed to be exhausted, and his clothes were soaked in sweat. He couldn't digest those fragments in his mind. unprecedented.Although he has dealt with corpses for several years, he has seen corpses in different shapes, and imagined the state of these corpses when they died, but this is completely different from actually facing this scene.

"Su Mo," Lu Yuan adjusted for a long time, looked up at Su Mo whose back was facing him, "that person is Uncle Qi, right?"

"Ah."

"Why is he looking for me?"

"I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for something on you."

"What's inside this pendant?" Lu Yuan held the pendant in his hand, "Why does everyone want it? Where did this thing come from?"

"I'm tired." Su Mo said softly.

"Can you tell me?" Lu Yuan slowly stood up against the wall and walked behind Su Mo.

"It can change everything." Su Mo turned around and smiled, "If you want to know more, ask Meng Fanyu."

Lu Yuan was a little surprised. Meng Fanyu once said that he didn't know Su Mo, but at this moment Su Mo easily said Meng Fanyu's name.Before he could ask any more questions, he suddenly felt something strange about Su Mo. The light was very dark. In the dimness, he found that Su Mo seemed to have become a little blurry, or...transparent.

"Su Mo, you..." He stretched out his hand to touch Su Mo, but was surprised to find that his hand passed through Su Mo's body, as if flying through the air.

"Go and ask him," Su Mo slowly dissipated into the air, his voice faded in his ears, "The things belong to him."

Meng Fanyu seldom sleeps, maybe once or twice a month, but every time he rests, he is serious.

Today he planned to sleep for half an hour, but just after 10 minutes of sleep, he was woken up by the hasty doorbell.He quickly sat up from the sofa, it was Lu Yuan.

"You are..." Meng Fanyu opened the door, and saw a pale Lu Yuan standing outside the door.

"If you still refuse to tell me anything today," Lu Yuan pushed Meng Fanyu hard, walked into the room, took out a knife from his body, and put it on his neck, "I will die." Here, then you die with me."

Meng Fanyu raised his eyebrows, looked at the knife in Lu Yuan's hand, and closed the door gently: "What do you want me to say."

"This pendant," Lu Yuan pulled the pendant off his neck, and raised his hand to Meng Fanyu's eyes, "Who does it belong to?"

"Isn't it yours?" Meng Fanyu didn't look at him, walked around him, sat down by the sofa, and lit a cigarette.

Lu Yuan felt that his emotions were a little out of control. Meng Fanyu and himself have been friends for more than ten years, but now their relationship has become weird, as if he was experiencing a nightmare that Meng Fanyu had expected long ago. , I was deeply involved, but Meng Fanyu stood aside to watch the fun, the bottom line is not to let myself die.

He couldn't control himself when he thought of this, he kicked the wine cabinet in Meng Fanyu's living room, and reached out to sweep all the clinking and shaking bottles in the wine cabinet to the ground.With the sound of glass shattering, the ground was full of wine and glass stubble.

"Fanyu, I don't know who you are, and I don't know how many things you haven't told me," Lu Yuan said hoarsely, "Maybe you don't think it's necessary to say anything, but you know that the most helpless thing a person is What does it feel like to watch a play with good friends!"

Meng Fanyu frowned, turned around, and looked at him with his hands on the back of the sofa: "Why do you think I'm watching a play? What's so good about your play? There are so many people who have suffered more than you and experienced more, Why do I have to look at you."

"Then tell me, you know, I don't want to check anymore, I can't stand it." Lu Yuan sat on the ground directly, with the knife still in his hand, but it was no longer on his neck.

"If you know the beginning, I can tell you the process and the result," Meng Fanyu replied calmly, "This is the rule."

"Where did the shit rules come from?"

"You'll find out later."

Lu Yuan thought for a while, stood up, walked in front of Meng Fanyu, threw the knife on the coffee table, and sat beside him: "The first beginning is, you know Su Mo, he knows you."

"Well, I know him, but I hope I don't know him." Meng Fanyu lit a cigarette, and the expression on his face was a little unreal in the puff of smoke.

"The pendant belongs to you." Lu Yuan's gaze stayed on the wall of the living room. There was a photo hanging there, which was taken when he and Meng Fanyu went to the beach during the summer vacation of their sophomore year of high school. At that time, both of them were smiling brightly.

"Yes."

"Why don't you want it when I give it to you?"

"After you know what it does, if you are willing to give it to me..."

"What is this for?"

"This cannot be said."

Lu Yuan put his legs on the coffee table, but he couldn't say, in fact, the most important point is the function of this pendant. If you don't know its true function, you won't be able to understand many things that happened around it. He sighed: "Get me a can of beer."

Meng Fanyu got up and opened the refrigerator, Lu Yuan turned to look at him: "What's in that bottle?"

"I can't tell." Meng Fanyu handed him the beer.

"Does it have something to do with Su Mo?"

"Yes."

Lu Yuan took a sip of beer, the current way of questioning and answering made him a little confused, he had to guess the first step correctly, and then Meng Fanyu would say the following related things, but the clues were messy, and what he saw was also true False.Lu Yuan closed his eyes, he had to figure out a clear idea.

"Good news..." Lu Yuan said slowly, "I can't come back."

"She no longer exists."

Lu Yuan's heart seemed to be stabbed by a needle at the same time, and he felt a sharp pain: "She got involved with this matter because of this pendant, someone wants her to use this as an exchange..."

"Yes."

"Who is looking for her, you, or Su Mo." Lu Yuan stared at Meng Fanyu.

"neither."

"Well, neither." Lu Yuan pinched his brows, Meng Fanyu's answer made him secretly relieved, if Meng Fanyu did this, he didn't know how he would react, "Who is that? "

"What do you think?" Meng Fanyu smiled. Lu Yuan is a smart person. If he pushes it like this, many things will slowly surface. He looked down at the palm of his left hand, and the black lines were faintly visible.

"If it's not you and Su Mo, then it might be Uncle Qi, it might be Xiao Yu, it might be Lu Jie... No, it won't be Lu Jie, Lu Jie... has some kind of relationship with Su Mo," Lu Yuan squeezed the beer can and said, "Lu Jie is Qi Hongwen, right, that's the name."

"Yes."

"What is their relationship?"

Meng Fanyu was silent.What is the relationship between Su Mo and Hongwen? He really can't describe it accurately. They are brothers, and they are also lovers who desperately lived for each other and died without any scruples.

"Brother." Meng Fanyu thought for a long time.

"Not only that," Lu Yuan lay down on the sofa with his feet behind Meng Fanyu's back, "Sometimes, I have a very unusual feeling towards Su Mo, like...someone of mine, I mean, this It should be Qi Hongwen's feelings, and this is not a brotherhood."

Meng Fanyu smiled, but said nothing.

"Is Su Mo a ghost? I mean, is he dead?" Lu Yuan put his hands behind his head and asked softly.

"He is obsession." Meng Fanyu replied.

"what?"

Just as Meng Fanyu was about to speak, he was interrupted by the sudden swelling pain in his body.First, a feeling like an electric shock emanating from a certain place in his body made his whole body go numb, and then every inch of his skin felt like something was about to sprout from his body. This kind of pain was something he had never experienced before. Yes, he frowned, did he say too much?

"Go to sleep for a while." Meng Fanyu didn't care about acting, and stretched out his left hand to caress Lu Yuan's forehead.

Lu Yuan felt sleepy for a while, and his vision immediately blurred.

Before he closed his eyes and fell asleep, he saw the red net pattern on the palm of Meng Fanyu's left hand, as if woven with blood.

Meng Fanyu fell forward to the ground, the black smoke rising from his body slowly solidified, pouring out like black mercury, the black slowly spread out under his body, and then slowly gathered.

"You are looking for death." A hoarse voice sounded, and the blackness gradually merged into a black human figure, but like him, he fell on the ground.

"It doesn't matter anymore." Meng Fanyu's voice became hoarse, but the expression on his face was calm.

Meng Fanyu disappeared.

In other words, Lu Yuan couldn't find him.

When Lu Yuan woke up, he was still lying on the sofa at Meng Fanyu's house. He felt that he had slept soundly and deeply, and the feeling of fatigue before had disappeared after this night.

But Meng Fanyu was not at home, nor did he leave a note for him as usual.Calling his office, Lin Xiaoman said that Meng Fanyu had canceled all the appointments within a week, and didn't say where to go, but the phone was turned off and he couldn't be reached.

Lu Yuan faintly felt that something was wrong. He still remembered the scene he saw before he fell asleep, Meng Fanyu's weird left palm.

left hand.Su Mo also uses his left hand.

Lu Yuan didn't know the secret of Meng Fanyu's left hand, and he was not in the mood to think about it, because Meng Fanyu left him unreasonably and disappeared.They have known each other for more than ten years, and there has never been such a situation. It has never happened once that Lu Yuan couldn't find Meng Fanyu.

He didn't return to the 19th, he stayed at Meng Fanyu's house for a few days, he was more concerned about Meng Fanyu's disappearance than knowing the truth.

Meng Fanyu's cell phone was placed on the coffee table, in the same position as when he came that night, and it had not been touched.

"Where have you been?" On the fifth night, Lu Yuan finally couldn't hold it anymore, and smashed a can of beer on the TV screen of Meng Fanyu's house, and the cracks on the screen spread out like spider webs.

Lu Yuan looked at the screen, despair and fear welled up in his heart little by little, he was afraid, he could not care about anything, but he was afraid, he was afraid that there would be no news from Meng Fanyu from now on.

Meng Fanyu is like a part of his life, sometimes he doesn't feel how important it is, and only after losing it does he realize that this is an indispensable part. Without this part, he doesn't even have the courage to persevere.

He was lying on Meng Fanyu's bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze, not knowing what to do next.From the beginning of his pursuit of these matters to the present, he has not actually considered Meng Fanyu too much. He will not ask Meng Fanyu for help unless it is a last resort, but he knows that this person is always by his side, and he even self-willedly feels that he can completely ignore it. Regardless, because Meng Fanyu said, I will not let you die, if you die, I will die with you.

But now, before he died, Meng Fanyu had disappeared.

The phone was ringing, and Lu Yuan listened for a long time before he realized it. He took out the phone, and the number on it surprised him. He had hoped that it was Meng Fanyu calling, but when he saw the caller ID, it wasn't Meng Fanyu, but it was more than Meng Fanyu. The call surprised him even more.

"Come here later," Han Xu's voice came from the phone.
