mask [strong]

The dank basement is brightly lit by scorching white light, the only half-sized window is tightly sealed by iron bars and wooden boards, and the small room is covered with two layers of white transparent tiles from the floor to the ceiling. Plastic sheeting, the refraction of white light through the sheeting becomes hazy.

The clear sound of rubber gloves snapping was particularly abrupt in this quiet small room.

"We grew up together, he didn't want to go abroad, I stayed. He wanted to climb up, I chose to be a veterinarian. He didn't want to stay in Mingzhou, I helped him found Lu Yu. He wanted to get married, and I always Just me and my dog."

Laughter spread from the chest cavity, and the sound became more and more crazy, as if even the surrounding membranes were trembling.

"The woman died and I was covered in blood. Do you want to know where the bloody clothes went? The dog ate it. He went crazy."

"Do you think I love him?"

"I don't love him. Homosexuality is dirty. That's not love. Those who have fallen into it should be redeemed."

"Do you think I'm crazy?"

"I'm not crazy, I'm just a minority who deviate from the stupid masses. They don't allow heterogeneous people, because they are afraid of comparing them to make them weak and pathetic. Playing with them is really a boring and interesting contradiction."

"You can understand me right?"

"Yeah, of course you are the one who understands me best. We are all the same, aren't we? So you can't give love either. No one around you will have a good result."

The silver needle pierced into the skin that was slightly pale due to very little exposure to the sun, and the person who hadn't said a word finally spoke when pulling out the needle on the other person: "We have never been the same."

"Not the same? Do you mean because I'm going to die and you're still living alone?"

The silent person chuckled, with great sarcasm, "I mean, no matter whether you are an ordinary person or a heterogeneous person, you have failed too much, you have lost everything, and the loss is terrible. But you can use your useless life to Give it a perfect performance."

Chu Yi picked out the vegetables and rice in the lunch box, and he didn’t have much interest in eating. He had been in the detention center for 30 days before Chu Yi really didn’t think the matter was so serious, but his anxiety grew naturally after a long time. .The interrogation by the police continued almost every day. On several occasions, it was probably because of his steadfast attitude that he irritated the interrogators, and he was even beaten.It's not particularly heavy, but you don't have anywhere to talk to someone.

His case was a special case, and he was not allowed to be released on bail, and he was not allowed to see his relatives or lawyers.However, the lawyer did not bring him any good news. He is still stuck in this detention center and cannot get out, which means that firstly, the relationship has not been established, and secondly, the indirect evidence is indeed quite harmful to him.

There are always times in life when you have no choice but to use your strength. This year, Chu Yi has experienced ups and downs. Perhaps it was because of Chu Feng's accident before that his impatience settled down a lot. When he fell into this trough of life, he saw it more Take it easy.He couldn't come up with any ideas, so he could only quietly wait for the result, which was always something he had never done, and he was always confident in his heart.

But these days, what he thinks most about is not the result, but the little things between him and Qin Rui in the past two years.

When he was impetuous, he didn't have time to calm down and think. When he fell into the cell and was free, those memories were like floating weeds, scattered in large pieces on the lake and sea.The hormone dopamine pursues passion, and when all these things dissipate, what is left is nothing more than ordinary, just the lives of two people.

He should feel lucky, apart from the tricks and traps played in the mall, his and Qin Rui's life couldn't be more harmonious.Others say that the person who knows you best is your opponent. Even though he is not a very qualified opponent, he is confident that he knows Qin Rui well enough.Without understanding, there would be no Qin Rui's concession, without understanding, there would be no Qin Rui's accommodation, without understanding, he would not give up the entire forest and hang on to this single tree.

There's actually nothing bad about it.

He just likes Qin Rui.I like his every move, like the gentle face he pretends, like his strong bottom line always leaves a retreat for both parties, a retreat that he knows well.

So he shouldn't insist on winning or losing. There are ups and downs in life, but there is no winning or losing.Go through ten years, 20 years, 30 years together, turn one person's ten years, 20 years, 30 years into two people's ten years, 20 years, 30 years, enjoy double time in the impermanent world, double Double happiness, this is a win-win situation.

At this moment, Chu Yi, who was full of fantasies about the rest of his life, did not know that a mass storm broke out in City Z outside. Someone pushed the gate of the city hall, smashed the windows of the city hall, and the public security bureau was also blocked. .

Circles of candles were lit on the downtown square of Z. Young men and women clasped their palms together and prayed silently with their eyes closed.

What is group psychology?One-sided, dogmatic, and childish, but at the same time fanatical and destructive.

And this riot caused by the march and silence originated from the discovery of a box in the square in the center of Z this morning. On the box, there was a sentence: "I heard that you have caught me? Is that so?"

The box contained body parts.The same method, the same scene.

Just the day before, the public security department announced the arrest of suspects.

This is undoubtedly a great humiliation and provocation to the government and the police by the serial murderer. He is not only provoking the police and the government, he is provoking the lives of every ordinary public.

From silent mourning to questioning, from questioning to shouting.Mixed with purpose, non-purpose, slowly fermented in the group.

When Captain Yao received the emergency release notice from above, the person next to him said, "Could it be an accomplice? It doesn't matter if there is no evidence. So let's release it?"

Team Yao folded the notification document and glared at the man.Such a large-scale battle is impossible without the behind-the-scenes pushers, and the emergency notification time above is also very well stuck.The attitude of the local media to avenge the criminal suspect is already worth pondering, and even some mouthpieces have made it clear that a good person cannot be wronged because of this, which shows the complex nature behind this case.

He sighed and said, "Let's arrange it, it's not our turn to take care of it."

The next day, all the procedures in the bureau came down. When Chu Yi walked out of the detention center, the feeling was like the feet and calves that had been numb from squatting. Feel unobstructed by the end.

He took a deep breath and thought, the air outside is fresher than the air inside.

The whole family of the Chu family had been waiting outside for a long time. Seeing him coming out, Chu Guangjing hurried forward a few steps, first patted him on the shoulder, and finally landed on his shoulder and paused for a while. I couldn't help but leaned forward and hugged Chu Yi.

"It's good to come out, it's good to come out."

Chu Yi's eyes swept across the faces, and when it was over, he frowned, looked at Chu Guangjing again, and said with a puckered mouth, "What about him?"

Before Chu Guangjing could speak, Chu Yi pulled him aside and whispered, "I'll discuss something with you."

"Can't we wait until we get home?"

"I can not wait anymore."

Chu Guangjing was silent for a while, nodded, and sighed, "Let's talk."

"The matter between me and Qin Rui, I lied to you before. I know you definitely disagree, but after so many things have happened, no matter what you think or think, I think I should at least confess to you in a serious manner. This attitude, Dad, I want to live with him."

Chu Guangjing turned around and didn't answer him. He couldn't say he agreed or disagreed.

"I see what you mean. Go back."

Chu Yi's ups and downs can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune, and the family members were also very happy, having a lively meal, and at night, Chu Yi couldn't hold back.

He didn't know why Qin Rui hadn't appeared at this time. If Qin Rui wanted to restore their relationship, shouldn't this be the moment when he had to be present?From the moment he left the detention center, he waited all the way, and waited until Qin Rui appeared, and then he could follow the steps thrown by the other party to stage a change of heart.

But Qin Rui didn't show up, and no one answered the phone.

Chu Yi was lying on the bed, but he couldn't sleep peacefully. He felt that he couldn't wait for a moment, and didn't want to wait.He still got up, got dressed, and drove to Qin Rui's house.

The white duplex building in my memory looked monotonous and cold in the chaotic night, except for the yellowish street lamp that brought a little light, the whole house was so dark that it made people feel numb.

Chu Yi felt that something was different, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly. The approaching headlights illuminated the empty front yard, and all he saw were broken flower pots and mud splashed everywhere.

Chu Yi suddenly had difficulty breathing, as if someone had pinched his heart.He snatched the door and ran down without even stopping the car. He thought something happened to Qin Rui.

Before he reached the gate, he stopped.

Standing outside the car light was a man in a white shirt, black suit jacket, meticulous hair, and spotless shoes.

He just stood there straight, for no idea how long he had stood, or how long he would have to stand.

He is waiting for Chu Yi.

He has so much to say, but he can't say those words.

He has too many feelings to express, but those feelings are only suitable to be buried deep in his heart.

He has too many things he wants to do for Chu Yi, but there are too many, and the time for a moment is not long enough.

For a moment, there is only enough for a tight hug.

"Qin Rui."

"do not speak."

He has suffered for this moment for too long, he just wants to feel Chu Yi's heartbeat and tell himself that he is still alive.

Even living as an extraordinary human being, even if everything about him will never be recognized.

"Qin Rui, let's be together." Whoever speaks first, whoever pays first, so what?The important thing is that we walk and live together for the rest of our lives.

Qin Rui hugged him even tighter.

After the serial murders in Z city ended with the death of Lu Yu's president Peng Yu as the last unsolved case, it seemed that the waves of time were getting farther and farther away from everyone's memory.Those who are interested often use it as an after-dinner talk. As the pain gradually fades away, this unsolved case that shocked the whole country has also been included in the dusty archives.

After several ups and downs, Chu Yi, the young master of Chufeng Group, appeared on the covers of various financial magazines as the CEO of a new IT company five years later.

At the golden age of 33, he is in the limelight and shining brightly.From the peak to the trough, and from the trough to a higher peak, he is the most newsworthy young person of the author.He is the proud son of heaven who has been endowed with a halo of social status and wealth.

Qin Rui put down the book in his hand, looked at Chu Yi who was being interviewed on TV, and couldn't move his eyes.He was a little careless about Captain Zhang of the criminal investigation team sitting opposite him.

Zhang Hao also glanced at the TV, and soon came back to his senses: "It's been five years in a blink of an eye, time flies so fast. But no matter how long it has been, I have never given up looking for clues to those cases.

Because I always believed that what I discovered was the truth.

You once taught me that all serial murderers have their own label, which is a unique crime mark.But Doctor Qin, do you know?

In the last case, I saw two labels, one of which was very concealed and not very concealed.No one thinks that's a label, but I firmly believe that it is a label.Until last night, when I saw the news, I was even more convinced.

It was the letter R made of corpse parts.

The same letter R as Mr. Chu's customized mark on the neckline and cuffs. "

Qin Rui raised his eyebrows and said warmly: "Your so-called label without reference may be a kind of misreading and misunderstanding. Although the most important comparison in criminal profiling is to use the criminal label, but your comparison It’s not valid, which is why you think it’s a label and other people don’t.”

"Do you think my comparison is not valid? Is the reason that one is a corpse and the other is a living person? I think my comparison is valid. If R is the criminal label of the murderer, then the living and the dead have different meanings." How big of a difference is it? Maybe death will happen sooner or later.”

Qin Rui tidied up the book on the table, then gently stroked the dust that might be on his face with his hands, and carefully took out a photo from the book.

It was a photo of two people, and the photo is a bit old.In the photo, Qin Rui is sleeping, and Chu Yi is smiling on the other side.He put the photo flat on the table and said: "Any subjective guess may not be reasonable, if you want me to give you a relatively professional opinion because of business, then I have just told you.

If you wish to communicate with me purely for personal reasons, then I would like to tell you that you are mistaken.He never needs me to make any labels, he is my label. "

The interviewer on TV asked Chu Yi a question.

"What do you think is the reason that you survived the low point of your life and rushed to the high point again?"

"Only the one who laughs last is the winner."

Qin Rui chuckled and picked up the book again.

The title of the book is Abnormal Psychology, and he found it when he was looking for the physical evidence left by Peng Liang in Chu's family.Opening the first page inside, there are a few large characters written, knowing yourself and the enemy, you will never end in a hundred battles.Afterwards, each page has written a lot of attention, which shows the master's level of care, and a photo is inserted at the end, which is the one that Qin Rui repeatedly took out to look at.

"The one who laughs at the end is the winner. Only fools believe this sentence."

Chu Yi is that fool, but he is also willing to cooperate. It is not difficult to pretend to be asleep, and it is not necessarily so painful to hand over control.

Of course, there is a premise for all of this, even the chessboard is in his hands, no matter how black and white pieces are played, he is not afraid of turning over the sky.

I can't afford to lose you, Chu Yi.
