Into a parallel world

"That shop...is it called 'Flowers Falling in the Wind'?" Qiao Yechi asked.In his mind, he tried to recall whether he had met this person in that store four years ago. The memory was like a mosaic, except for the outline, he could no longer see the details clearly.

"Yes, do you have any impression?" Shen Liming put out the cigarette and said, "He and I can be said to be two people living in the same body, and we can see all the emotions. The white snow in winter makes you even more beautiful. Beautiful eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, happy and shy. I think that's how I like you."

Qiao Ye squinted his eyes slightly, trying to recall, that snowy winter was the time when he and Lu Fengluo got along very hotly, and the days of long streams of water fascinated him, and he didn't leave a deep impression on anyone except Lu Fengluo. .

"Can you give me some specific information? I don't really remember what happened so long ago, because there were a lot of accidents in the middle." Qiao Ye said apologetically.

Shen Liming nodded, covered his forehead, looked at Qiao Ye and said, "At that time, you were sitting by the window and looked at the waiter sitting in front of the piano with a smile on your face. That waiter was not a simple person. You come to this store at a fixed time every day, and you have a very close relationship with him. I was very unwilling to do that, so I tried every means to get the right to operate this store, but this store was opened by that so-called waiter.

Knowing from an acquaintance that this waiter's background is not ordinary, he had no choice but to give up this idea unwillingly, and sat not far from you every day waiting for you. "

Shen Liming sighed, and continued: "The first time I talked to you was when I saw your anxious and uneasy expression. That day left a deep impression on me. It was snowing heavily outside, and Lu Fengluo didn't go , You sat there by yourself and waited all afternoon, I advised him to go up and talk to him if he liked it, and leave if he was timid. He chose to go up and talk to him. "

Qiao Ye thought about the heavy snowfall in the first half of his freshman year four years ago. It was Christmas Day. He and Lu Fengluo met at "Flowers Falling in the Wind", but the other party did not come as promised.Taking a deep breath, the bone-chilling scene, like dust from the past, once again covered the front of my eyes.

When the exhaled breath met the air, it turned into a white mist, which dissipated after a few seconds.Qiao Ye frowned and looked around, did he probe out the French windows? Five or six hours had passed, and it was already dark outside in the cold weather. The streets that should have been empty were extremely lively at the moment, and the crowds were mostly couples in twos and threes.The lights on the huge Christmas tree in the center of the square were twinkling, which dazzled him.The heating in the store was fully turned on, and the warm light from the ceiling made him feel sleepy, but he still propped his chin up, waiting for those who didn't arrive.

"Hi sir, are you waiting for someone?" A strange voice came, low and mellow like a cello, which brought Qiao Ye back to his senses.

When I looked up, I saw a middle-aged man sitting on the opposite seat. He had an outstanding appearance, his face was sharp and angular, with a mature aura and a sharp aura on his body. Although he was smiling at him, he still It made him cringe involuntarily.

"If it is, I happen to be waiting for someone, why don't we go together."

The temperament of this man's gestures left a deep impression on him, this is the first time he has come into contact with such a person.

Qiao Ye's eyes froze for a moment, and when he came back to his senses again, Shen Liming looked at him with deep eyes, as if he knew that he had remembered.

"You... are from Christmas Eve?" Qiao Ye wasn't sure, because he never saw that man again after Christmas Eve that day, and he completely disappeared into his world like he had evaporated. During that time, he thought that that man Human beings are just the startling side of Christmas Eve, just like Santa Claus driving elk past the moon, hidden in the dark clouds at night, it's just a blink of an eye, so you can't expect him to remember it clearly.

Shen Liming smiled and nodded, "Since that night, we have been disconnected. No matter what I try, I can't succeed. I tried to go to that store to find you, but my memory became more and more blurred. Even the store I can't find the exact location, no, it should be said that I can't get close at all."

"So the first time I saw you that day, the feeling of loss came back immediately. Putting this kind of thing on the table is against the core values ​​​​of socialism. Therefore, I have been secretly investigating for many years about incidents that seem to be scientific but not scientific. If I bump into you this time, do you think I can let go of this clue?" Shen Liming approached Qiao Ye, lifted Qiao Ye's chin, and asked in a low voice.

Qiao Ye frowned and broke away, dissatisfied: "Pay attention to your behavior, Minister Shen."

Shen Liming smiled lightly. This appearance made Qiao Ye feel like a person, but this feeling was fleeting and could not catch a trace.

"So, what are you going to do to me next? Or what do you want to do?" Qiao Ye looked at Shen Liming coldly.

"I want to prove a bold idea. I need you." Shen Liming looked at Qiao Ye and said firmly. He straightened up, put his hands in his pockets, and looked at the paintings on the wall.

Qiao Ye narrowed his eyes, the emotions in his eyes were tumbling, and the smoldering anger seemed to rush out, spraying the self-righteous man in front of him to death.

"Why, do you think I will let you do whatever you want without being indifferent?"

Shen Liming turned his head, "Of course I won't treat you like a little white rabbit from four years ago. I will find a way to make you useful."

"You want to abuse your private power?" Qiao Ye raised his eyebrows.

Shen Liming smiled, walked to the desk, turned on the computer, and motioned for Qiao Ye to come over.The latter stepped forward with patient dissatisfaction.There was a surveillance scene on the computer screen, there were three people in the picture, a man was sitting on the left, it was Lu Fengluo, and two men in police uniforms were sitting at the table on the right.Looks like it's under interrogation.

"What do you mean?" Qiao Ye said flatly.Shen Liming turned down the surveillance screen and said, "What do you think of Lu Fengluo?"

"Scumbag and fake." Qiao Ye said these three adjectives in a flat tone, and Shen Liming was a little surprised when he heard it.

"He has the right to be rich and powerful, and he has a different mind. It can be said that he is the favorite of God. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are still serving beside such a capable person. How can you feel this way?" Shen Liming was rather curious. Anyone who had been in contact with Lu Fengluo admired and admired him, but this Qiao Ye was very disdainful.

"God's darling... If there is a God, why does he only favor this one person? Prosperity is bound to decline, and one day Lu Fengluo will pay the price for his mistakes." Qiao Ye sneered.

Shen Liming glanced at Qiao Ye inexplicably, and turned off the video, "Your thinking is still in the past."

Qiao Ye's eyes flickered, and he asked tentatively, "You know?" This Minister Shen knew about the scandal between him and Lu Fengluo back then?
