death waltz

On New Year's Eve, on the roof of Yunzhou Building.

The whole city is lit up with stars and lights, and colorful lights and lanterns are hung everywhere. The festive atmosphere of the New Year permeates the air, and every breath is filled with a strong flavor of the New Year.

In the darkness, he stood quietly on the roof of the building, isolated from the light, and seemed to see everything in front of him clearly.

Gently rubbing the traces left here that day, such a high place, even if it is overhauled, it will not be found in a short time.

Standing on the railing with both hands, the changing lights flickered in his eyes, and even his breathing was smooth and quiet, as if he had completely integrated himself into the night, lonely and silent.

Subtle footsteps sounded in my ears, and another black figure stood beside me, and a familiar smell filled my nasal cavity.

He didn't even turn his head to look, but just smiled faintly: "Mr. Zuo, why do you still have time to come up to blow a breeze on New Year's Eve?"

Zuo Wenqi casually leaned against the railing, turned his head sideways to look at the other person's face, which was so beautiful that even though it was hidden in the dark, it was still so beautiful that people couldn't bear to look away, and his voice was as soft as the wind: "From the day Bian Lv disappeared, you Come here, Yige, Bian Lu will never come back here again."

"I know wow," Ji Yige smiled softly: "Of course I know he won't come back again, but instead of going to his house and waiting, it's better to come here to blow some air, maybe after a long time, you will give up."

Zuo Wenqi looked at the side face of the other party pretending to be relaxed with distress, and called softly: "Yige, you..."

Ji Yige took the initiative to interrupt him and changed the subject: "Don't talk about me, let's talk about the affairs of the bureau. I'm taking leave for this period of time. Has Director Cai's body been found?"

Shaking his head: "No, Bian Lu will not leave Master's body to us. He is gone, and it is impossible for the police to find Master's body."

"Hehe" smiled softly, with a touch of tenderness in his tone: "It's good if you can't find him, otherwise he is alone, too lonely."

Aren't you alone?Zuo Wenqi almost blurted out uncontrollably, but so what if he asked?Can Bian Lv be brought back after asking?

Before Zuo Wenqi could answer, Ji Yige asked again: "Today is New Year's Eve, don't you need to go to Director Zhao? No matter what the plan is, you should do it."

The wind in winter should be like a sharp knife, blowing on people's faces bitingly, I don't know if it's because tonight is New Year's Eve, even standing on a high place, Zuo Wenqi still feels the breeze, cold, but not painful.

"Director Zhao's matter has been resolved. When Master decided to tell Bian Li the truth, the real goal of the whole Hell-o case was about to be achieved."

Ji Yige turned his head to look at the other party, and asked lightly: "Then can you tell me everything now? For example, why did Director Cai adopt you?"

This time Zuo Wenqi did not refuse or remain silent, turned over, put his hands on the railing, and looked at the city full of fireworks.At the end of the eyes, fireworks have already started to be set off, and the colorful colors warm up the cold winter.

The voice was ethereal: "When Bian Lu's parents were killed 20 years ago, I happened to be outside the door."

Ji Yige's pupils shrank suddenly, unable to believe it: "What did you say?"

Knowing that the other party might have misunderstood what he meant, Zuo Wenqi quickly explained: "I just happened to pass by the door to go back to the orphanage, and I happened to see a man in police uniform walking out of the house, walking in a very strange manner. In a hurry, and a little frightened, but I didn't see the man's face."

"and then?"

"After a while, when I almost forgot about it, I saw in the news that the case had not been solved. I was young at the time and didn't understand anything. I thought that if I saw something, I would tell the police uncle That's good, so I went to the police station. Who would have thought that a little policeman on guard threatened me not to lie, and I ran out as soon as I was afraid. Later," thinking of this, Zuo Wenqi smiled helplessly: "Later I don’t know who knocked me out, and when I woke up, I was at Master’s house, and later he adopted me.”

"That is to say, the policeman you saw that night was Director Cai?!"

"Actually, I didn't know it at first. It wasn't until I arrived at the police station and worked with you that I probably learned about the case of Bian Lu's parents. Then you will know what happened later. I checked all the files of that night. Went to Bian Lu's house, and also quietly went to Master's house."

Ji Yige was startled, how could he almost forgot about this matter: "What book did you take away from Bian Lu's house?!"

"Book?" Zuo Wenqi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's not a book, it's a diary written by Bian Lu's mother. Once when Master was drunk, he accidentally talked about Bian Lu's family affairs. He said that Bian Lu's father He is a nervous university professor, but his mother is a very organized and planned person. At that time, I didn’t go abroad, and I didn’t take it to heart. Later, after I went abroad to study psychology, I recalled that passage , I suspect that with Bian Lul’s mother’s personality, people who have a plan in doing things will definitely get used to keeping a diary, so I guess that there must be a diary in Bian Lul’s home.”

This is actually the case, Ji Yige also has to admit that there are so many coincidences in this world, if Bian Lu can return home again after becoming an adult, maybe he can find that diary, and he won't have toiled him for so many years .If Director Cai hadn't sent Mr. Zuo abroad to study psychology, maybe he wouldn't have discovered so many problems from a little detail.

This is fate, the fate that went around and returned to the original point.

"Then why did you go to Chief Cai's house?"

"Master killed people for money. Since he will regret it all his life, with Master's character, he will neither hide the money nor spend it. The only thing he will do is to bring it Be there and remind yourself all the time.”

"So that money...."

"It's in the safe next to Master's bedside. I'm going there just to confirm my inference." As if thinking of something, Zuo Wenqi smiled a little bleakly: "When I was young, Master adopted me, but really I don’t spend much time with me. When I often come to see me, many times I have a painful and helpless expression. At that time, I always wonder if Master thinks it’s annoying to adopt me. In order to prevent him from being so unhappy all the time. I’m happy, I study hard and don’t make trouble for him.” Suddenly smiled: “You know, Yi Ge, sometimes I’m jealous of Bian Lv, why can he have Master by his side all the time, I It can only be in the dark. It wasn't until I started to understand this matter that I realized that Master is spending his whole life torturing himself."

Yeah, what better way to torture yourself than to take with you the children of your brother you killed with your own hands?

The turbulent heart gradually calmed down, and Ji Yige asked again: "What about Director Zhao?"
