Deer in the forest

Li Jibai pursed his lips tightly and froze in place.

Lin Shen, who was crying and begging him in front of him, coincided with countless Lin Shens before him, outlining an illusion of being strong, cold and indifferent.Putting aside these illusions, the real Lin Shen is only 25 years old, fragile, sad and helpless.

Not even crying loudly.

Li Jibai felt that his heart was squeezed into a deep well, cold and biting.He used all his strength to block it, but the mouth of the well was getting bigger and empty.

He vaguely remembered the boy who followed behind him at the age of 18, calling his brother with a voice like a clear spring under the moon.

Suddenly woke up.

He stood up, strode to the bed, took two pieces of clothes from the simple wardrobe, turned back, lifted the man on the ground without saying a word, and put them on indiscriminately.

Then he opened the door, threw the person to Luo Yi who was waiting outside, and left without looking back.

He didn't look at Lin Shen again the whole time.

The car drove into the ship silently, and left with broken freedom, leaving the hope and new life far away on that small island.

Lin Shen turned his head and took a last look.

In the cabin, Luo Yi came over with a glass of water and stopped in front of Lin Shen.He was half lying on a sofa, his wrists were bloodstained from struggling, his forehead was also injured, and his ankles were still swollen. No matter how he looked, he had no ability to escape.

Luo Yi's hand holding the water glass was steady, and there was no expression on his face. He just took a deep look at the other party and said softly "I'm sorry".Hold his jaw with one hand, stuff a pill in, and feed him a few sips of water.

Lin Shen cooperated very well, without any resistance during the whole process.

Luo Yi was sure that he had really swallowed the medicine, so he started to undo the soft whip on his wrist.Then he cleaned the wound, applied medicine, and wiped his face with a towel.

After finishing all this work, before Luo Yi left, he hesitated for a second, and said, "Don't be afraid, this is a tranquilizer."

Lin Shen closed his eyes and turned his head away, a tear rolled down and hit the bandage that had just been wrapped.

Luo Yi was stunned for a moment.

This was the second time he gave him medicine, the first time he almost died, and the first time he was ashamed.

Luo Yi clenched the water glass in his hand, and didn't dare to stop any longer.

After drinking the medicine, Lin Shen was in a daze all the way.I don't know how long I walked, it feels very long at one moment, and very short at the other.He could feel that he was carried off the boat, then carried into the car, bumped all the way, and finally lay in a soft bed.

He tried to open his eyes, but couldn't.Nightmares also came one after another along with the weakness of the body. The third sister with a dagger stuck in her body, the cruel and ferocious Li Qingluo, and Jiang Hai who patted him on the shoulder with a smile and told him to live a good life, finally turned into a face engraved in his heart.

——Li Jibai's face was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred, one moment he was smiling and calling him Ah Shen, the next moment he strangled his neck and told him to die.

The heavy sadness overwhelmed him, he didn't dare to think about anything else, he just wanted to be like an ordinary person and try to live for himself for the rest of his life.

It's so difficult.

In the study, Lao Ding stood upright.After reporting the situation in detail, wait for the next step.

Li Jibai had just come back, so he was not taken in this operation, and he also took a special passage when he came back, instead of entering through the gate.Looking at the expression on his face, he was very calm. The old man thought about it carefully, and he didn't know whether he had brought it back.

Li Jibai glanced at Lao Ding who was already looking a little anxious, and said with a vague emotion: "He brought it back."

Lao Ding was taken aback, and immediately opened his mouth to say something.Li Jibai waved his hand, but he swallowed the words abruptly.

"Look for what you want outside, don't stop. At the same time, give the old man and the Wei family some clues, and let them look further away." After Li Jibai finished speaking, he raised his eyes to Lao Ding, with a warning in his eyes, "Lin Shen No one should know the news of his return."

"Also, you have to remember," Li Jibai tapped his index finger on the desk, "since he defected, you are no longer companions. No matter what happens to him, it has nothing to do with you. You are the Li family first, so don't be redundant. thing."

Clear blood vessels can be seen under Lao Ding's green-skinned head, jumping up and down following Li Jibai's words.

He was not sure about Li Jibai's feelings for Lin Shen, but he knew Li Jibai's methods for traitors.For a moment, he regretted that he followed the young man who went to buy dinner in that border town.

Lin Shen woke up profusely in sweat.When I opened my eyes, the room was dim and fuzzy. The effect of the sedative was like a hangover, my mind was dizzy, and my chest felt tight.He was at a loss, where is this?What time?

He took a long breath, slowly shook his stiff head, and a thought popped out of his mind that it was time to go to work at the cold drink shop, and the boss should be in a hurry.

wrong!Seems like something happened before going to work.

What's the matter?Consciousness gradually cleared up, and memories came back like a flood: he was caught.

"woke up?"

Suddenly, a deep question came from the side, which scared him almost into cardiac arrest.He turned his head abruptly, squinted his eyes hard, and found the figure who had been sitting on the sofa.

The man didn't know how long he sat there, quietly hiding in the dark, observing his every move since he woke up.

The floor lamp was turned on, and a dim yellow light flooded the room instantly, not dazzling, but indescribably dark and frightening.A pair of black and deep eyes appeared in the light, staring at him bluntly.

Li Jibai was wearing light gray comfortable home clothes, his hair and face looked wet, he must have just taken a shower, like a big cat hiding its claws, lazily relaxing.He counted the time and watched the person on the bed go from deep sleep to sober, from dazed to frightened, every subtle movement and expression was magnified several times by him to examine and study.

Lin Shen seemed to want to say something, so he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything in the end.Soon, his expression changed again because of something on his feet.

He dully discovered that there was a black ring buckled on his right ankle. The clear metal had a faint luster, making the ankle pale and thin.

He is too familiar with this thing, it is electric shock shackles.

As long as the wearer goes beyond the designated range, the shackles will alarm, and the terminal is connected to the mobile phone. If they escape, the radio waves emitted by the shackles can knock down an adult within a second.As for whose mobile phone the terminal is in, it goes without saying.

Lin Shen unconsciously scratched the sheet under his body with his fingers, and then found another problem: he was in a strange room.

The floor was covered with thick carpets, as were the walls. Apart from the double bed under him, the only furniture in the room was a sofa in the corner, where Li Jibai was sitting now.

"Now that I'm awake—" Li Jibai slowly stood up, dressed at home, looking much gentler than usual, and sluggish, walked up to Lin Shen, looked down from a high place, like an eagle patrolling the territory, "Then let's get started!"
