Li Peifeng sat on the chair, Li Xinyun sat on the edge of the bed, and the two sat looking at each other. After a while, Li Peifeng threw the wooden stick in his hand aside, and asked Li Xinyun suspiciously: "Brother Yun, why are you here?"

Although it was Li Peifeng who lent the key to Li Xinyun himself, and agreed that he would come to his brother's office to investigate, but he didn't expect to see Li Xinyun sleeping here early in the morning. Li Peifeng should feel disgusted and angry, but looking at Li Xinyun's face, Li Peifeng still couldn't feel any negative emotions.

Because the person in front of him is so similar to his brother.

Although due to the biological and adopted relationship, there is always an untouchable gap between him and his brother, and the relationship is not close, especially after his brother works, the number of times he meets can be counted on the fingers.It has been two years since Li Xinyun's accident, Li Peifeng's memory of his appearance is actually very blurred—even if it is blurred, from the appearance, although the person in front of him is very similar to the brother in his memory, but Still can see the obvious difference.

But their similarity is not only in appearance, but something deeper.

For example, the attitude of the person in front of him towards him—a natural intimacy with alienation, is exactly the same as Li Xinyun in Li Peifeng's memory.

So Li Peifeng couldn't feel dissatisfaction with the person in front of him, even though he was full of doubts.

Faced with Li Peifeng's question, Li Xinyun was silent for a moment, and finally he could only say vaguely: "It just so happened... I just came to take a look, because it was too late, so I rested here for a while, I'm sorry."

Whether it's words or gestures, Li Xinyun knows that he reveals a very obvious suspiciousness, even if Li Peifeng is innocent and innocent, I'm afraid it's hard to believe-as Rong Yun, even if there is "Li Xinyun", it is very likely that he has been separated for many years The excuses of his fellow brothers, what he did was too far.

But Li Xinyun was exhausted. From yesterday to today, Li Xinyun felt as if he was having a long nightmare. Even when he woke up, he was still living under the shadow of this nightmare.He felt that he was a clown through and through—he had always lived in the identity of Rong Yun, making a disguise in front of Chen Hongting like walking on thin ice, pretending to be Rong Yun, he was afraid that he was not like Rong Yun, and he was also afraid I am too much like Rong Yun.

But all of this was unnecessary in the first place, and he didn't need to pretend in the first place, because he was always in front of Chen Hongting's eyes, and Chen Hongting had always seen him clearly, looking at Li Xinyun aloofly It's ridiculous and futile to play a puppet that is inherently soulless.

Li Xinyun no longer has the strength to pretend to be himself.

"But... didn't you have class today? Why did you come here?" Li Xinyun changed the subject very bluntly, and asked why Li Peifeng came to the office.

For some unknown reason, Li Peifeng didn't pursue the matter of why Li Xinyun appeared here - because Li Xinyun looked too tired, even if he just woke up from sleep, it seemed like the next moment About to faint.Before Li Peifeng woke up Li Xinyun, he found that his face did not look like he was sleeping peacefully. Even though Li Xinyun was in a deep sleep, Li Peifeng called him several times without waking him up, but his face was always frowning. It looked like a nightmare.

Although Li Peifeng didn't know what happened to him, he instinctively felt that he shouldn't ask.He answered Li Xinyun's questions very cooperatively, and it seemed that he had completely "turned the host into a guest", as if Li Xinyun was the owner here naturally-although this was the truth.

Li Xinyun listened to Li Peifeng's reason for coming here.

It turned out that the demolition announcement for this street had been officially issued.Most of the residents here have already accepted the compensation, and began to move out one after another according to the arrangement, except for a few who did not negotiate compensation and refused to move - this is also the reason why Li Xinyun didn't have electricity here yesterday.For the few companies that did not agree, the developer is not a fuel-efficient lamp. I heard that the developer hired someone to destroy some nearby lines and water sources.Today, because Li Peifeng's school was preparing for the mobilization meeting for senior high school students, it gave other students a holiday. Li Peifeng and his mother took this opportunity to come and do the relocation work for Li Xinyun's office.

Because the alley is narrow, a lot of sundries have been thrown away these days to occupy the narrow alley, so it is inconvenient for the moving company's car to come in.So the adoptive mother waited at the entrance of the alley for the moving company to send a small trolley from the company into the alley for transportation, and asked Li Peifeng to come in and open the door first, remove all the dustproof cloths, and mark the furniture to be moved first.

But when he arrived, he found that the door of the office was unlocked. Li Peifeng suspected that a thief had entered, so he took a stick to defend himself, and then went in to check. Unexpectedly, Li Xinyun was here.

It was probably because I was too dazed last night and forgot to lock the door after I entered.

"Did you find anything in my brother's place?" Li Peifeng asked cautiously.

Of course, Li Xinyun found out a lot, so much that Li Xinyun's entire life had been overturned.But these are too heavy, neither the case related to Lin Jingxian nor the heavy secrets of Chen Hongting can be told to Li Peifeng.Li Xinyun pinched his palm, smiled reluctantly and said: "I didn't find anything, probably...your brother and I just look alike."

"Really?" Li Peifeng said.

Li Xinyun said: "I'm sorry to bother you too much, I'll go first." He got up and wanted to leave, more like fleeing in a hurry, but as soon as he stood up, Li Peifeng called him: "Brother Yun."

He looked at Li Xinyun, looking very uneasy, as if he had something to say, and after brewing for a while, he seemed to muster up his courage, and said: "Brother Yun, since the last time we met, I have been thinking about the last question you asked me. Question...I was thinking, why do you care about my brother's... corpse." Li Peifeng faltered a little, and then paused for a while after speaking, as if he didn't know whether to say the next thing.He looked at Li Xinyun with a hesitant expression full of anticipation, "Brother Yun, you are really my brother, right?"

As soon as Li Peifeng finished speaking, Li Xinyun was stunned.After Li Peifeng finished speaking, he probably felt that his words were a bit absurd. He said: "I'm sorry, maybe I was thinking too much. My brother left too suddenly. I have never had any real feeling about this matter, especially you and brother Yun. My brother is so similar, and it happens to be such a coincidence, I..."

"I am." Li Xinyun suddenly interrupted Li Peifeng and said.

As a private detective, what he is best at is observing and listening, so Li Xinyun seldom interrupts others, but at this moment, Li Xinyun has an unprecedented urge to get rid of Rong Yun and Chen Hong completely. Ting built this airtight cage for him.

He interrupted Li Peifeng's words and answered Li Peifeng's last question.

Li Peifeng was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Xinyun's words.

Although he asked the question himself, he never thought that he would get an affirmative answer from Li Xinyun. Therefore, when Li Xinyun said "I am", Li Peifeng didn't even react to the two simple words Li Xinyun said. What does the word incomparable mean.He was stunned for several minutes, and at the same time, Li Xinyun was also entangled in the answer he blurted out—should he really admit that he is Li Xinyun?

The crisis related to Lin Jingxian has not yet been resolved. It is uncertain whether what Chen Hongting said about Lin Jingxian is true or not, but it is true that Lin Jingxian wants to kill him.If I recognize Li Peifeng and adoptive mother, will it bring them any danger?

After realizing the meaning of Li Xinyun's answer, Li Peifeng's heart was pounding. He felt that his hands and feet were stiff and he could hardly move. The huge shock made him unable to turn his brain. Confidently asked: "You are... are you really my brother?"

Before Li Xinyun could continue to say anything, there was a burst of noise coming from the door, and several people were talking vaguely, which could not be heard clearly from a distance.After a while, someone's footsteps walked from the outside door all the way in, and the sound of footsteps gradually became clearer and clearer, until the footsteps finally stopped at the door of the bedroom.

Then Li Xinyun saw a thin middle-aged woman standing at the door. She was talking to people outside with her face sideways. The dust cloth is lifted, what are you doing—”

The moment her eyes met Li Xinyun's, her voice stopped abruptly.

Li Xinyun looked at her, stood up, looked at this middle-aged woman's face covered with fine lines due to the years, her vocal cords responded before her brain, and a syllable rolled out on the tip of her tongue: "Mom."

She is Li Xinyun's adoptive mother.

The adoptive mother stood at the door of the bedroom, her lips parted slightly, her expression was dazed, and her voice was slightly shallow, as if she was in a trance and surprised: "Xiao Yun?"

She seemed to want to say something more, but the mover behind her had already stepped forward and asked, "Ma'am, which ones are you going to move?"

And Li Peifeng tugged at Li Xinyun's sleeve, his expression was full of complicated emotions, as if he had a lot to say, but in the end he only called out cautiously and uncertainly: "Brother?"

Maybe Li Xinyun really couldn't pretend anymore, and he finally came to this step.

It's just that the current situation is not a good time to reminisce about the past or to be honest. Li Xinyun has not thought about how to explain the current situation. He himself is still in a mess and can't sort out everything about himself.So Li Xinyun said: "Let's move things first, and we'll talk about it after we're done, okay?"
