Bai Ji closed his eyes and recuperated, lying on his back on the sofa, stepping on the ground with his toes disorderly.

The air conditioner in the room was turned on at an extremely low temperature, and the fan blades were facing Bai Ji, making his arms cold.

Seven or eight cigarettes were extinguished on the coffee table, and the living room was smoky like a temple, which made Bai Ji's impatient brows look a little more Buddha-like.

It was already 02:30 in the afternoon, and Qi Xiang was late for a full hour and a half.

From the bottom of his heart, Bai Ji began to think about the possibility of Qi Xiang's untimely death.

In the past, when I was late, I would send a message in advance, making up a half-true and half-false reason. Unlike today, there is no movement at all.

It's not dead, it's more or less unreasonable.

"Cough cough."

He opened his eyes, straightened up, splashed water to extinguish the still burning cigarette butt, and turned off the air conditioner by the way.

Bai Ji got up to open the window for ventilation, his patience was exhausted, and he was not going to wait any longer.

The window was pushed open, and the heat waves from outside swarmed into the house. Through the layered shadows, he squinted his eyes and keenly caught Qi Xiang's passing shadow.

"Not dead." Bai Ji snorted coldly.

He stood by the door with folded arms early on, waiting for Qi Xiang to give him some reason.

Three minutes later, Qi Xiang knocked on the door of Bai Ji's house under the scorching heat of summer.

Bai Ji waited for him to knock for the third time before slowly opening the door. The moment he opened the door, he was greeted with the smell of roasted tobacco and alcohol, as well as the smell of knocked-over inferior perfume, all kneaded into a drum, Soak Qixiang all over, and Qixiang is soaked thoroughly.

In contrast, there was no clean smell of smoke in the room, like an air freshener.

Bai Ji couldn't help the nausea that almost retched in his throat.

"I had something to do yesterday..."

Qi Xiang looked haggard after a hangover, his face was slightly pale, his eyes were thick with dark circles, and he was still in yesterday's clothes, crumpled and curled up on his body, he seemed not ready to take care of himself, and there were still two locks of hair sticking out at the back of his head.

Bai Ji's pupils narrowed sharply, as if he saw something terrible and loathsome through Qi Xiang's skin.

"..."

He took a big step back, and before Qi Xiang finished speaking, he took out some toilet water from the sofa, and splashed it on Qi Xiang without thinking.

"Did you...did you take the wrong medicine?" Qi Xiang hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, but was still choked, and took a deep breath of fresh air outside the door.

Bai Ji ignored Qi Xiang, and walked towards the bedroom without looking back, his brows were tightly frowned, his eyes were full of unhappiness after being rejected, and an inexplicable excessive anger.

Qi Xiang can be late, or even not come.

He didn't need to take notes, and when he came the next day, he looked at the two papers he wrote carefully and laughed at himself as an idiot, trusting his character.

He can go to work drunk and burp loudly in front of Bai Ji.

In this way, Bai Ji will only be upset and scold others.

But... when all the factors were mixed together and turned into a muddy mud, Bai Ji saw the shadow of another person from the apologetic expression on his face.

A person who makes him disgusted, uncomfortable, uncontrollable shaking hands, and even responding to stress.

For a moment, he didn't know whether it was Qi Xiang or that person who disgusted him.

They're alike, both smooth-talking liars with only one way to go in the end-drinking and cheating and maybe hurting?

The hypocrisy wrapped in a glib tongue is still hypocrisy.

Suddenly, Bai Ji's footsteps stopped, he grasped a slight difference, and instantly sobered up, even the anger disappeared slowly, and the whole person was slowly calming down.

What does Qi Xiang have to do with him?

He's just a little liar who's "thriving".

Not interesting.

"Que'er, Que'er..." Qi Xiang also saw that Bai Ji's mood was wrong, so he hurriedly changed his shoes and chased after him.

He thought it was because he was late and Bai Ji was unhappy, so he put on a face and opened his mouth to coax people, "I bought slippers from the Hualushui supermarket as a gift, spit me all over my mouth."

"The little face is cold, it's bluffing." He still smiled, "I had something to write about the note yesterday. Do you have a free notebook here? I'll write it for you now."

"yesterday…"

Before Qi Xiang's fingertips touched Bai Ji, he was swung away by the back of his hand with a slap, just like Qi Zhengcheng's slap yesterday.

"..."

Qi Xiang's complexion also darkened, he rushed here in a hurry, was sprayed and beaten, and had to coax others, he wasn't a thousand-year-old bastard, how could such a thick shell cover his face.

"Bai Ji!"

"no need."

Bai Ji finally raised his head to face him squarely, and his thin lips provoked a fleeting smile, curved like a scimitar, shining with the cold light that had been restrained.

"..." Qi Xiang's misfire was extinguished by this laugh, "Bai Ji..."

"I don't want to learn anyway."

Qi Xiang's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but fell silent.

Because Bai Ji didn't see the imaginary questioning of the teacher, he was not even disappointed, but indifferent.

"I'm sorry." Qi Xiang bowed his head.

"fine."

"I…"

"Get out to get rid of the smell." Bai Ji turned his back to Qi Xiang, "It stinks."

He also needs a person's space to calm down.

"..." Qi Xiang was irrefutable.

He turned and walked away like a big dog limp.

Qi Xiang can't explain it, and he won't open up to explain it, after all, it's a family matter.

Did he want to say that my circus started yesterday, and he couldn't see the clown's behavior, so he ran out, went to find a group of idiots to drink, and watched another wave of clowns perform comedy.

Then I was so drunk that I fell asleep until almost two o'clock.

From the north of the city to the south of the city, it was an hour's journey, and he kept telling the driver to drive faster, almost flying over.

"Oh shit."

Qi Xiang flushed his face in the bathroom, the water droplets rolled down his side face and over the jaw line, seeing himself in the mirror, Qi Xiang gritted his back molars tightly and lost his smile.

He didn't sleep well all night, and was splashed with toilet water and smelled of alcohol.

What made him even more irritated was the feeling of guilt that scratched his heart.

He originally thought that he was justified, and he was more or less a victim, but the sudden extinction of the light in Bai Ji's eyes made him feel that his crime was unforgivable.

"What's the matter?" Qi Xiang murmured.

"Really! The police are here!"

"Ah... the south of the city has seven turns and eight turns. If you hide in any corner, it's hard to catch."

"No, anyway, I'll take a taxi back today."

"I'll take a taxi..." Xiao Ma was chatting with another waiter, when he heard the wind chime at the gate, and caught a glimpse of Bai Ji's figure out of the corner of his eye.

Just as she was about to say hello, she caught a glimpse of Bai Ji's gloomy face, and fell silent again, shrinking her raised hand back inch by inch.

"You don't look good." Xiao Ma grabbed a handful of toffee from the drawer, and then hit the people around him, "Make some milk tea for Que'er, I don't know who messed with him."

Bai Ji changed into his overalls and came out to take the candy that Xiao Ma had peeled. After swallowing it for half a minute, his complexion improved a little, and he adjusted to his normal cool state.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Ma asked, "Tell my sister, who bullied our baby?"

"..." Bai Ji shuddered with goosebumps all over his body, "It's okay."

"Is it Qixiang?"

"Yeah." Bai Ji took the milk tea from another waiter's sister, and after saying thank you, he continued to say to Xiao Ma, "He's sick."

For more than an hour in the afternoon, Qi Xiang was like urinating frequently and not being able to find a toilet. If he had nothing to do, he would go to his side for a while, but he didn't dare to talk.

It's fucking annoying.

Bai Ji doesn't mind Qi Xiang fooling him anymore.

But Qi Xiang didn't have any insight, so he just wanted to come over, "queer" for a while, and "Brother Bai Ji" for a while, making Bai Ji's face more and more stinky.

"Oh." Xiao Ma probably guessed it, and turned to tell Bai Ji what happened yesterday, "Let me tell you, there was an exhibitionist in the corner alley behind our shop yesterday."

"Huh?" Bai Ji didn't know what it was.

"That's the one." Xiao Ma made an international gesture, "I heard that it happened before, but it used to scare people. Yesterday he scared people and was ready to do it."

"Did you call the police?" Bai Ji frowned, "Are you on the night shift this week?"

He knew that Xiao Ma's house was in the depths of the alley, no matter which way he went, he had to go into the alley, and there were no lights or monitoring in the alley, and when he worked the night shift at night, stumbling and stumbling was a trivial matter, if that pervert...

"I reported it, but I haven't caught it yet." Pony pursed her mouth, "Just now I asked my dog ​​if he could come to pick me up."

Xiao Ma's boyfriend seems to be working overtime recently, and his work place is far away.

"Go back early, I'll see you off." Bai Ji said, "I'll cover the night shift for you."

After he finished speaking, he got up and went to find another girl who was also on night shift.

Xiao Ma stared at Bai Ji's back.

Her brother, who is young but reliable, has a cold face and a warm heart, and is extremely gentle.

At eight o'clock in the evening, it was already dark.

There are still lights outside, and when you enter the depths of the alley, you really can't see your fingers, and the road is narrow.

"Well, it's not as good as a brick."

Qi Xiang fiddled with the phone, but still failed to boot.Walking to such a dark place, he had already confirmed the fact that he was lost.

After class, he called Qi Qi, who said that the farce at home had not stopped, and even intensified, and Qi Qi himself went to live at the children's house, so that Qi Xiang could come back later if he could.

Qi Xiang didn't have the kind heart to go back to mediate the conflict between the husband and wife, so he simply booked a homestay in the south of the city, and then went to the commercial street to change into dirty clothes.

After doing all this, he was still thinking about Bai Ji, and wanted to have a meal before going to Cha Fei to find Bai Ji. He was tossed and turned all day because he hadn't eaten yet, his stomach was empty and only smelled of alcohol.

It was precisely this act of eating that made him fall into the alley in the south of the city.

After eating, the red light of the mobile phone battery was on. Is there a shared power bank around? He followed his memory to go out, but he walked to a place without lights without knowing it.

Farther away, it's dark, and the phone is also dark.

As Qi Xiang walked, he kicked the pebbles under his feet, and the pebbles landed in the empty alley, echoing with eerie echoes, like a ghost film.

Suddenly, the stone fell into the light and shadow, and a beam of bright light suddenly appeared at the corner in front. The shadow, which was magnified several times, was walking on the earth wall. The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the shadow seemed to be kicking the stone.

someone!

Qi Xiang's eyes lit up, and he hurried forward, he could probably get out.

"Friend!" he said as he walked, "I'm lost."

The strong light shot on Qi Xiang's face in an instant, he squinted his eyes, and could only see Bai Ji's asura-like white face, as if he was born in the darkness.

"..."

Qi Xiang made a swallowing movement, the words got stuck in his throat, turned back and forth, and finally turned into one - hey, what a coincidence~

"Why are you here?"

"I'm lost."

Bai Ji lowered his hand lamp, trying to push Qi Xiang away, but the alley was too narrow, so he had to stand behind Qi Xiang if he couldn't get through. It was annoying to be in front of such a big man.

Bai Ji wanted to kick him.

"Oh." Bai Ji said flatly, "Get out of the way."

"Que'er." Qi Xiang didn't retreat but advanced.

"Tsk, are you annoying?"

Bai Ji twisted his collar, pushed him against the wall, then walked past him, and stood in front of Qi Xiang.

The alley was deep, Qi Xiang was not a local, and he couldn't get out if he was so smeared. No matter how much I hated this person, I would take him out out of humanitarianism.

Maybe it was dark, Bai Ji was obviously half a head shorter than Qi Xiang, but he was extremely reliable.

Qi Xiangban is deliberately clinging to people while walking.

"Stay away."

"I have no smell, smell it?"

"..." Bai Ji rolled his eyes in the dark, "None of my business." It wasn't for him to take a bath.

"I still have to explain to you what happened in the morning."

"you--"

"Ah! Help—woo!"

The echoing screams from Turn Nine appeared suddenly, and then disappeared in a flash, turning into faint sobs.

not good!

Bai Ji thought of something, he was about to run forward, but then he remembered that there was an oil bottle behind him, he didn't care so much, so he grabbed it back, not knowing where Qi Xiang was, and even dragged it towards the voice direction to run.

in the dark.

His hand was held by someone, and that person's hand was cooler and bigger than his.

Afraid of being left behind?Grip so hard.

The hooligan tightly covered the girl's mouth, sprayed foul breath into the girl's ear, and threatened disgustingly: "Shhh, if you talk again, I will strangle you to death!"

There are so many alleys here, I should... probably not find him!

will not!

A ray of light suddenly shone in, and the light dispelled the darkness.

Someone stood against the light.

"You are surrounded."
