mask personality

As the words came out, Wen Dong clearly saw in the peripheral vision that Ji Lin's slender fingers holding the steering wheel tightened slightly.

A moment later, when the light was red, Ji Lin braked, turned his head to look at Wen Dong, he smiled, and said without answering: "My little rose, you say that a blind person will feel that the color is different from him. Is it a hindrance?"

Wen Dong was stunned.

Before that, he never expected Ji Lin to say such a sentence.

Wen Dong asked Ji Lin if he also felt that emotions were obstacles, but Ji Lin inexplicably compared them to "blind people" and "color".

Wen Dong vaguely felt that this analogy was correct and appropriate, but he couldn't figure out where it was appropriate for a while.

And obviously, Ji Lin didn't give him time to think carefully.

After saying this, he naturally turned the topic back to before, and said in a gentle voice: "You haven't told me your taste, you like seafood, Japanese food, Cantonese food, and don't like heavy oil and salt. The taste is light, not very spicy, is there anything else?"

Wen Dong's attention was successfully diverted.

Of course, there are also reasons for his deliberate indulgence.

In the current situation, in the words of Tang Chu, who had just won a phased victory, was about to have a dinner to celebrate, and was still on the way to pick up midsummer, Wen Dong really didn't want to let himself think deeply about Ji Lin's words.

He intuited that if he really figured it out, the consequences might not be something he could accept calmly now.

and...

And to be honest, when I heard Ji Lin detailing his taste preferences, I knew it was not difficult for Ji Lin. He is such a thoughtful person, and he probably knows the tastes of Xi Yingzong and Tang Chu very well. , but probably people who are in love are inevitably like this, knowing it is knowing, Wen Dong still can't help it, and feels a little sweet in his heart.

He temporarily put aside the previous topic, and continued to chat following Ji Lin's words: "It seems that there is no more? If you don't say it, I think I'm not picky eaters."

-

The Municipal Bureau was not far from Wen Dong's house, chatting along the way, and soon arrived downstairs at Wen Dong's house.

Ji Lin turned off the car and parked it on the side of the road, turned his head to look at Wen Dong, and asked warmly: "Have you sent a message to my brother? You can let him go downstairs."

Wen Dong nodded and hesitated for a moment. Although he knew that Ji Lin had always been a very polite person, Wen Dong couldn't help but take a vaccination in advance: "My brother...he is not in good health, you wait Don't be too surprised."

Ji Lin rarely understood what Wen Dong meant immediately, but he still nodded without hesitation.

Before he could ask any more, the door of the unit not far in front of him opened.

Two people came out.

Midsummer sitting in a high-back wheelchair, and Uncle Zhang, the nurse behind him pushing the wheelchair for him.

Wen Dong rolled down the car window and poked his head out, waved at Sheng Xia, and unconsciously raised his voice: "Xia Bao!"

Sheng Xia also smiled, her soft brows and eyes were bent, and she raised her only arm that could move and waved at Wen Dong.

Wen Dong raised his hand to open the door and get out of the car to help Sheng Xia get in the car, but when his fingers touched the door handle, he suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to look at Ji Lin.

However, unexpectedly, Ji Lin stared at Sheng Xia in a daze!

It seemed that the politeness engraved in his personality instinct had all left at this moment.

If you look closely, you will find that his pupils are slightly constricted.

Wen Dong didn't know why, so he frowned subconsciously, and couldn't help coughing softly as a reminder.

Midsummer has arrived at the car, Wen Dong didn't have time to say more with Ji Lin, so he had to open the door and get out of the car.

He walked to the back seat and opened the rear door, and then skillfully cooperated with the nurse, Uncle Zhang, to half-lift and half-carry Sheng Xia into the back seat of the car.

During the movement, Wen Dong felt that Sheng Xia's waist and abdomen, which were originally soft and weak, now had a hard touch.

He frowned, and couldn't help but blame: "Didn't I tell you not to wear a waist support? You will feel uncomfortable."

"It's okay...it's okay," Sheng Xia slumped in the back seat. Just such a passive transfer had already made him not breathing well again, and he gasped slightly. He rubbed his cheeks to please him. On the back of Dong's hand, he whispered, "Don't wear it... don't wear it, ugly, here you go, shame..."

Sheng Xia's paralysis position is too high, his waist and abdomen are completely weak, and he is completely supported by a wheelchair, and he looks like he is trapped in it. Wearing a lumbar support will at least look relatively normal on the surface.

"Stupid or not?" Wen Dong poked his cheek lightly, and asked, "Would I care about this?"

Sheng Xia stopped talking, just blinked her round eyes at Wen Dong, and smiled flatteringly at him.

Knowing that Wen Dong doesn't care, she still wants to maintain a basic decency to outsiders as much as possible, especially in front of Wen Dong's new boyfriend.

I don't want others to think that Wen Dong has such a younger brother who can't take care of himself.

Of course Wen Dong understands what Sheng Xia doesn't say.

He sighed softly, fastened Sheng Xia's seat belt, turned around and walked to the other side, and opened the rear door on the other side.

"I'm not, it's okay," Sheng Xia couldn't help but speak again, his voice was weak, but his words were extremely considerate, "I can, I can sit, brother Dongdong, yes, sit in the front."

Usually the two of them ride in the car together, if Sheng Xia doesn't wear a waist support, he won't be able to sit alone in the back seat, so Wen Dong needs to sit together, wrap his arms around his waist, and act as a support for him.

But today he doesn’t need it, he can sit still with a waist support and seat belt on.

But Wen Dong didn't listen to him, and had already sat in and closed the car door, before he snorted and said, "I'm happy."

After finally getting it done, Wen Dong raised his eyes to look at Ji Lin.

But it's very strange that Ji Lin, who has always been well-mannered and thoughtful, hasn't taken the initiative to say hello to Sheng Xia, and is abnormally silent.

Wen Dong couldn't help but call out to him, hesitantly said: "Ji Lin, what are you thinking?"

Ji Lin suddenly came back to his senses.

He raised his eyes and looked back through the rearview mirror, but Wen Dong keenly noticed that his eyes were not on himself, but on Sheng Xia...

With Sheng Xia's physical condition, he has naturally received a lot of attention from others outside, so he is actually very sensitive to the gazes that fall on him.

Now when Ji Lin came over, Sheng Xia noticed it.

He pursed his lips, and said in a low voice: "Sorry... My body, didn't it scare you?"

Before Ji Lin could speak, Wen Dong raised his hand and patted Sheng Xia's paralyzed thigh lightly, annoyed him: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

But saying this, Wen Dong really felt strange in his heart.

After seeing Midsummer, Ji Lin's reaction was too abnormal.

Wen Dong had never seen him like this before.

"Sorry," Ji Yan closed his eyes, and finally opened his mouth, his voice was still gentle, and he said apologetically, "I was rude, and you misunderstood me. I keep looking at you just because..."

After a slight pause, as if hesitating whether to say the next thing, Ji Yan's eyes slowly moved to Wen Dong's face through the rearview mirror, and then turned back to Midsummer after freezing for a moment, he finally said frankly : "It's because I think you look like someone I've seen before."

This answer was obviously beyond Wen Dong and Sheng Xia's expectations.

Wen Dong was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously turned his head to look at Sheng Xia.

But Sheng Xia shook his head, saying that he didn't know and had no impression.

But before Wen Dong could ask, Ji Yan started the car. Amidst the sound of the engine, he seemed to have returned to his usual calmness, and added in a natural tone: "It's been many years, it must be my memory. gone."

After a short pause, he sincerely apologized again: "I've misunderstood you, I'm really sorry."

After the words fell, the black Cayenne started and drove out of the community.

Wen Dong soon discovered that at this time, Ji Lin's car was driving much slower and more stable than usual.

Obviously taking care of Midsummer.

From this point of view, his previous gaffe seemed to be just a brief moment, an episode, after all, what he showed now was still thoughtful and polite.

It can be heard that Dong's eyebrows are still slightly frowned unconsciously, and he intuitively feels that this is not the case.

After all, Wen Dong didn't think that Ji Lin would lose his composure for a person he wasn't sure if he had ever met.

After thinking about it for a moment, Wen Dong didn't think much about it, so he stopped thinking about it for the time being. He casually asked Ji Lin: "Did Police Officer Tang send you the address? Where should we go for dinner?"

However, the voice fell, but Ji Lin didn't wait for an answer.

Wen Dong looked up, and saw Ji Lin looking straight ahead, his hands holding the steering wheel were still steady, and at first glance, there seemed to be nothing unusual.

Wen Dong raised his volume slightly and called out again: "Ji Lin?"

After another two seconds, Ji Yan finally responded as if he had come to his senses: "Sorry, I just lost my mind, what did you just say?"

Wen Dong immediately realized that Ji Lin was only pretending to be "normal" on the surface.

But in fact, it is obvious that midsummer did give Ji Lin a big impact.

It's just that Wen Dong really couldn't figure out where this shock came from.

Wen Dong's thin lips pursed slightly, and he had to repeat again: "I said, did Officer Tang send you the address?"

This time Ji Yan deserved it quickly: "I posted it, it's a restaurant I've been to, so I didn't turn on the navigation, it's a comprehensive cuisine, the environment is good, and the hygiene is guaranteed."

Wen Dong replied "Okay", and suddenly didn't know what to say to Ji Lin. He could see Ji Lin's abnormality, but Ji Lin had already clearly said "he was wrong". When Shengxia was still in the car, it was really hard for Wen Dong to ask again.

This kind of feeling can't go up or down, which makes Wen Dong inexplicably feel that his heart is congested and very uncomfortable.

He simply stopped talking to Ji Lin, and turned slightly to chat with Sheng Xia.

The restaurant is not too far away, and Wen Dong never said a word to Ji Lin along the way, and Ji Lin was also silent from the beginning to the end, and never spoke.

When we arrived at the parking lot at the entrance of the restaurant, the car stopped. Wen Dong was about to open the door, but he suddenly heard Ji Lin open his mouth, and heard him whisper: "Wen Dong, that anklet..."

Speaking of this, Ji Lin raised his eyes and looked at the rearview mirror again, as if asking with his eyes, now that Sheng Xia is here, can he say this.

Wen Dong nodded, and asked along the way: "What's wrong with the ankle ring?"

This is what it means not to shy away from letting Sheng Xia listen.

Ji Yan continued in a gentle voice: "I mean, if you feel that the device in the ankle ring makes you uncomfortable, you can return the ankle ring to me first, and I will remove it, or re-customize a normal one. I'll give you the anklet again."

He didn't mention the word "positioning", probably because he was afraid of scaring Midsummer.

But of course Wen Dong understood.

But after understanding, Wen Dong became even more puzzled.

He couldn't understand why Ji Lin suddenly mentioned this.

Not to mention...

Wen Dong asked inexplicably, "When did I say that it made me feel uncomfortable?"

Ji Lin would be honest with him before, wouldn't it mean that he would not feel uncomfortable at all after seeing through it, but would be excited...

It feels strange to say such things suddenly now, as if I was pretending to be a good person...

Good people.

These two words bumped into Wen Dong's mind again, and the sense of familiarity flooded his heart again, and it was linked to Ji Lin's abnormality after seeing Midsummer...

Some fragments of memory quickly flashed through Wen Dong's mind.

His raised eyes widened slightly, but before he could fully recall that episode clearly, the phone in his hand suddenly vibrated twice, interrupting his train of thought.

Wen Dong subconsciously unlocked it to look, but found that it was a message from Tang Chu.

I probably knew that Ji Lin could not reply in time while driving, so I sent it to him, a series of——

Officer Tang: Shit, the dinner party today is going to be fucked up again.

Police Officer Tang: But Mr. Ji's prediction is really accurate, the mask actually has a new movement, it's a big one!

Officer Tang: I received a report 2 minutes ago that a child from a rich family was missing, a six-year-old boy, and I received this 2 minutes later.

Officer Tang: [Video];

The situation was urgent, Wen Dong didn't avoid midsummer, but just turned off the volume, and wanted to click on the video to take a look.

But the moment he clicked on it, Wen Dong regretted sitting in the back seat.

Because, a face that Wen Dong will never forget suddenly appeared on the phone screen——

It's a mask.

It was the same mask that was tattooed on every victim.

It was the mask in Wen Dong's nightmare.

The person in the video was wearing the same scarlet cloak that Wen Dong remembered.

The next second, Sheng Xia beside him suddenly had a severe convulsion.

The author says:
