On November 21th, 11st year of the new calendar, at 29:9 p.m., Bai Hanming entered the room and stepped onto the entrance of Qin Yu's house.

Qin Yu's home is located in an old apartment left over from the old era. The nearby buildings are similar, with peeling walls, sparse lights, strangely colored clothes and bed sheets hanging out to dry outside the iron windows of the residents, which is similar to the noise that floats every day outside the gate of the alliance headquarters. There is an unassuming resemblance to the flags.

There is no elevator in the apartment, only iron stairs connected to the outside.When you step on the leather shoes, there will be an overwhelmed creaking sound.Qin Yu's room is at the back of the third floor.A tattered iron door with strange patches around the lock.Qin Yu's way of unlocking the lock was also very strange. He took out a small iron piece, put it into the keyhole and turned it left and right, and the door opened with a click.

"This is the first time I've seen such a door lock." Bai Hanming's eyes fell on the iron plate, "Is this specially made?"

"It's not... just picked it up casually." Qin Yu handed him the iron sheet and walked in the door first.In fact, Bai Hanming's expression was very serious, and he didn't mean to be joking, but Qin Yu was still a little embarrassed, feeling like he was a thief.

In order to prove that this was indeed his home, he quickly checked the room, and after confirming that all the blackout curtains were drawn, he turned on a dim light on the coffee table.

This is a very old house, not as bad as Berhamming expected.He had a lot of speculation about Qin Yu's identity, thinking that Qin Yu should live in a very hidden place, and the living conditions would not be very good.But in fact, Qin Yu's room is quite spacious. The living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom are fully equipped with all internal organs. The bed is a small bed covered with a dark gray quilt cover. The quilt is folded in three and placed aside, looking very neat.

The only problem was that there were a lot of cardboard boxes of various sizes piled up in the room.It is roughly estimated that there are at least twenty or thirty of them, stacked together in pairs, making the indoor passage narrow and single.

In addition, the ceiling was so low that Perham had to keep his head down.

Qin Yu walked across the living room to the bed, took out a brand new toothbrush from the small drawer beside the bed, and went to the box near the bathroom to find a white towel.

Finally he went back to the living room and rummaged through a cardboard box about his height.The box was too big, almost half of him was buried in it, Bai Hanming stood behind and observed with great interest, until Qin Yu took out a set of crumpled old clothes from the box.

"Will you wear it for me?" Bai Han understood what he meant, both of them were soaked and needed to wash up as soon as possible.He shook off his clothes and looked at them. It was a two-piece style, with a black T-shirt with a round neck on the top, and loose overalls made of unknown fabric.

Judging from the logo on the chest of the jacket, this should be the overalls of a chain fast food restaurant, selling junk food mainly fried chicken.It's a pity that Bo Hanming's status is special, he has never worn such rough clothes, and has never eaten such rubbish food.

"This is the only one at home." Qin Yu looked guilty, "The other clothes are too small, can you just make up for it? I'll go out and buy new ones tomorrow."

Bai Hanming didn't say any words of refusal, but just asked him: "Is this your clothes?"

"Well. I wore it when I was working." Qin Yu nervously considered his words, "It has been washed and is clean, and I don't wear it much."

"Okay, thank you."

Bai Hanming took the toothbrush and towel, Qin Yu was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he laughed again, suddenly lowered his head and approached Qin Yu, and said in a low voice: "But compared to this... I may need personal clothing more. After all, it’s too impolite to be a guest at someone’s home.”

"...!!!" Qin Yu's blood rushed to his forehead, and he almost crashed on the spot.He wrote the words "panicked" on his face, quickly took two steps back, and stammered, "I, I'm going to buy it now... You take a shower first, you go in!"

He pointed to the direction of the bathroom, motioned for Bai Hanming to go in, and before Bai Hanming could say something again, he fled out the door with his shoes in his hands.Even if Bai Hanming had seen his skills, he should also admire his astonishing speed at this moment.

After Qin Yu left, Bai Hanming took off his wet clothes, took off his wristwatch, and put it on the coffee table.

Before entering the bathroom, he reconfirmed the safety of the room.A closed space, very tidy, but hides a lot of things.And most importantly, there really are no "eyes" in this room.

Qin Yu is too mysterious, a dull but beautiful Beta, living alone in a remote slum.It's nothing, but he has a nice gun, and a violin case with hidden compartments.There is no "eye" in the place where he lives, which means that he is out of the control of the government, which is simply a fantasy in the Northern League——

Besides, he also plays the violin.

Music is relatively safe, but playing itself is not, and instruments are only allowed to be learned in academies that are strictly supervised.While Qin Yu works in a fast food restaurant, he can also play music belonging to the upper class.This is very contradictory. Bai Hanming has a deep understanding of the state of this country. Under such a state, people like "Qin Yu" should not exist.

The hot water rushed through the body, stinging the wound.But Bai Hanming didn't care, he brushed his hair back and let the hot water wash over him.

The water smelled of bleach.

This is common in the Northern Union. The government's explanation is that water is a precious resource that needs to be recycled through repeated sterilization.Citizens should accept and understand this approach, because the earth needs to be environmentally friendly, and the Northern Alliance has always been at the forefront of environmental protection. Compared with the political | corrupt | benefit mankind.

It's good publicity, old-school but useful.In the 21 years since the new calendar, almost no one has questioned the water quality, and at the same time, a sense of identity with the political system has arisen spontaneously. "Environmental protection" is a very good word. It represents justice and also means concession. "For the sake of environmental protection, we have to", as long as this sentence is used, many social|contradictions will be easily resolved.

Qin Yu came back soon.

Bai Hanming heard the sound of the door opening and closing outside, as well as Qin Yu's slight footsteps.He stayed in the kitchen for a while, then approached the bathroom, stood outside and politely knocked on the door, and said, "Can you open the door for me? Just a little, I'll pass it to you."

No inconvenience.If it wasn't for the fact that the foam on his body hadn't been washed off, Bai Hanming could even walk out directly.He always looked like a gentleman, like a respectable man with a high education, but it was all a pretense, and pretense is not a constant thing.He had a premonition that Qin Yu didn't look smart, but kept some secrets.Berhaming needed something more aggressive to deal with him.

He opened a crack in the door, and Qin Yu handed things in.A pair of A-style underwear that had not been opened from the packaging box. They didn't look very good-looking and didn't meet Bai Hanming's taste. Fortunately, they were big enough.

"First... don't put on your shirt," Qin Yu said through the crack of the door, "The wound needs to be rubbed with medicine."

Bai Hanming followed good advice and went out topless after taking a shower.Qin Yu knelt on the small cushion next to the coffee table. On the coffee table was a jar of ointment, gauze, bandages, and two glasses of water.

As Bai Hanming approached, Qin Yu was obviously very nervous, and knelt up a little more straight, not daring to squint.Bai Hanming sat down on the sofa and said, "Your house is complete."

"It's, it's okay... some of them were bought together just now." Qin Yu felt that there was something wrong with him, and he seemed to stutter easily when talking to Bai Hanming, like a fool.

"Is that so?" Bai Hanming said, "But at this time, I remember that the retail department should have closed."

"It's not a retail department." Qin Yu explained, "There are people doing this kind of business nearby, and they are open 24 hours a day."

His expression was a bit strange, and the pauses between his words were unnatural. Bai Hanming noticed his articulation, "this kind of business", sounds very broad and cannot be defined precisely.Bai Hanming picked up the ointment jar on the table, and found that the label had been peeled off, and only a date of use was roughly written with a black pen.

"Won't your neighbors suspect you if you buy these all of a sudden?" Bai Hanming moved closer to him.

"No." Qin Yu said, "People often buy these things here."

"That's good." Bai Hanming fixed his eyes on him, "I hope you won't get into trouble because of me."

He was very gentle when he said this, so gentle that Qin Yu couldn't help but look up at him.Bai Hanming was shirtless, and his skin was very warm after bathing. He stretched his shoulders and sat there casually, with his abdominal muscles facing Qin Yu's direction.

He is really handsome, and everything about him has a natural attraction to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu felt like a piece of metal, while Bai Hanming was like a magnet.He had to restrain himself vigorously so as not to let himself be led away.

The skin on the back of the neck started to get hot again, and Qin Yu felt a little uncomfortable. He picked up the gauze and asked a foolish question: "I'll help you apply the medicine, can I?"

"Okay." Bai Hanming thought it was cute that he asked himself everything, so he laughed, "But you also need to take a shower first and change into clean clothes. Then we will take medicine together. more serious than me."

"..." Qin Yu paused, embarrassed and at a loss.Immediately he got up from the mat, Bai Hanming thought he would say something, but he didn't.He walked around the room with his head down, quickly found dry clothes for himself, and carried a towel into the bathroom.

The electric heating pipe started working again, making a slight buzzing sound.

It was only then that Bai Hanming discovered that the pipeline layout of Qin Yu's house was very strange. The pipelines for heating and running water were not connected from the outside of the house, but from top to bottom, penetrating from the ceiling, and arranged straight in the corner next to the exhaust fan. .

After observing along the pipeline route for a while, Bai Hanming had a guess in his mind.

A few minutes later, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and before Qin Yu came out, Bai Hanming scribbled some medicine on himself and put on his shirt.
