Death Progress Bar

After saying this, Xu Chuan shut his mouth, as if he didn't want to talk anymore, and even lowered his head again, not looking at Shi Weichong and Shi Jin anymore.

Shi Weichong provoked Xu Chuan with a few words, but it had no effect.

Xu Chuan has been Shi Xingrui's lawyer for many years, he knows the situation of the Shi family very well, and he is a very capable lawyer, and he has nothing to worry about. If he doesn't want to speak up, no one can do anything about him.

There was no progress in the conversation, Shi Jin looked at Xu Chuan, and said the second sentence after coming in: "Who are you looking through me?"

Shi Weichong frowned upon hearing this.

Xu Chuan moved, raised his head again, looked at Shi Jin without speaking.

"When I was fat before, you never looked at me like this." Shi Jin looked directly into Xu Chuan's eyes, asked Xiao Si to add some buffs to himself, and asked in a slow voice, "Third Brother Say I look like my mother, do you know her?"

Xu Chuan's eyes moved, his gaze moved inch by inch, from Shi Jin's eyebrows to the bridge of his nose, and finally landed on his lips, his Adam's apple moved, and said: "The most similar place is the lips...why did you lose weight! You don't deserve this face! Go to hell! Go to hell!"

He suddenly exploded, reaching out his hand to grab Shi Jin's face, Shi Weichong's expression changed, he got up to block Shi Jin, stretched out his hand and pushed Xu Chuan back forcefully, and shouted: "Calm down!"

Xiang Aoting, who was outside the door, also pushed the door and rushed in, picked up Xu Chuan who was lying on the ground with a sullen face, and handcuffed him to a chair.

"Tch." Xu Chuan suddenly calmed down again, leaned on the chair, looked back at Xiang Ao Ting, then at Shi Weichong, but didn't look at Shi Jin again, and said maliciously, "Shi Weichong, I admit that you are very resourceful. The brothers said they would woo you and they wooed you. It was clearly an equal share, but Swiss Bank ended up in your hands. But you are so ridiculous, encouraging other people to play the game of holding together and crowding out younger brothers. It's you, why are you pretending to be brotherly love now?"

Shi Weichong's face was as deep as water, and he didn't refute his words, he just said: "I owe Xiaojin a debt, I will pay it back naturally, what are you, you want to sow discord if you can't do harm to others?"

"Instigate discord? No, I just think it's too ridiculous." Xu Chuan lowered his head and lowered his voice, with a sense of emptiness in life, "Shi Weichong, you can do it yourself. You are a kind of trash, not worthy to be your younger brother. And Shi Jin, you are really a typical example of being sold to help count money, you deserve to be a trash."

"Enough!" Shi Weichong got up, went around and punched Xu Chuan directly, then walked back and pulled Shi Jin who was still sitting, and led him outside, not wanting to listen to Xu Chuan's crazy talk anymore.

Xu Chuan was beaten to the side of his head, stuck his tongue against his cheek, looked at Shi Jin who was walking and looked back, suddenly smiled, and said silently: They want to kill you, run away.

Shi Jin frowned fiercely.

"Damn it, what did you say!" Xiang Aoting pulled Xu Chuan over and prevented him from looking at Shi Jin again.

Xu Chuan lowered his head and laughed, his voice grew louder and louder, his expression crazy like a lunatic.

Shi Jin slowly retracted his gaze, and followed Shi Weichong out of the interrogation room, shutting Xu Chuan's laughter behind the door.

Just now, after Xu Chuan uttered the silent reminder, his progress bar dropped to 700. This is the most one-time drop in the progress bar since he entered City B—there is no doubt that this time the progress bar The decrease of the rate of death is related to the reduction of the lethal factor, but has nothing to do with the survival factor.

Xu Chuan must be one of the murderers who wanted to kill him, but Xu Chuan's attitude was too contradictory, he clearly hated him, but the last reminder seemed to be helping him.

What does that hint mean? Is it implying that Shi Weichong and the others are bad?

He looked at Shi Weichong who was walking in front of him, and shook his head again - no, Shi Weichong and the others would not be the murderers.Maybe the "they" in Xu Chuan's mouth did not refer to Shi Weichong, but someone else, such as...Xu Tianhua?

And Xu Chuan's strange attitude after seeing his face, what's hidden in it?

"Little Jin." Shi Weichong stopped suddenly, let go of Shijin's arm and turned around.

Shi Jin was thinking about Xu Chuan's words, but he didn't react for a while, and bumped into Shi Weichong's arms directly.

Shi Weichong was taken aback for a moment, then raised his hand to press his shoulder, hugged him lightly, and said, "Xiao Jin, I'm sorry about the past..."

Shi Jin came back to his senses, raised his hand and patted Shi Weichong's shoulder reassuringly, and said, "Needless to say I'm sorry, I can understand that Xu Chuan just wanted to provoke our relationship, and I won't be fooled."

Shi Weichong hugged his hand tightly, then let go of him, raised his hand to touch his head, and said, "Thank you, Xiao Jin."

Shi Jin shook his head and smiled at him.

Since he chose to believe in Shi Weichong, before there is conclusive evidence that Shi Weichong really has another heart for him, he will never overthrow the trust he has built up so hard because of the crazy words spoken by others.

On the way back, Xiang Aoting also got into the car and sent Shi Jin off with Shi Weichong.

Seeing that the two of them had calmed down, Shi Jin asked, "Big Brother, Fourth Brother, Xu Chuan seems to know my mother, and also hates me because I look like her. Do you know anything about my mother?" ?”

Xiang Aoting shook his head directly, and replied: "I only know that your mother was brought back from a remote town by your father. She was with Dad for two years and passed away not long after giving birth to you. It seems that she hurt her body during childbirth. .”

The information he gave was very vague, all of which were mentioned briefly in the original plot, and there was no valuable information.

Shi Jin looked at Shi Weichong - as the eldest son, Shi Weichong had more chances to get along with Shi Xingrui than other brothers, and he should know more detailed information.

Sure enough, Shi Weichong thought about it for a while, and said something different: "Your mother is not very old, she was less than 20 years old when she gave birth to you, and I didn't have many opportunities to see her. Since she appeared, Dad I seldom look for us, especially after you were born, Dad almost completely ignored us brothers, and didn’t meet us again until your mother passed away. And before your mother appeared, Dad hadn’t seen us for a long time I've found a woman, I remember Dad had the idea of ​​holding a wedding ceremony with your mother and getting married."

Shi Jin felt complicated when he heard it, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

Because of a young woman who suddenly appeared, his father neglected and even almost abandoned him. Shi Weichong and others must have felt very uncomfortable. Back then, Shi Weichong and others were just a group of ten-year-old children.

"It's nothing, we're used to it." Comforting Xiang Aoting, when he mentioned Shi Xingrui, his tone softened, "Whether your mother appeared or not, Shi Xingrui never regarded me and elder brother as his sons."

Shi Weichong's expression also faded, and he drove quietly. After a while, he continued: "Actually, I always thought that when Dad said that he wanted to marry your mother, it was just another way to coax women. Until your mother passed away, I changed my mind when Dad took care of you by his side. You mean something different to Dad, and this has never changed. "

Shi Jin was silent, not knowing how to respond.

He is also a son, but the original owner has always been a special one. This is the root cause of the conflict between the original owner and his five brothers. No matter what he says now, he feels like standing up and talking without pain in his back.

"Xu Chuan knew your mother probably during the two years when your mother was with your father." Shi Weichong suddenly changed the subject, and his tone returned to normal, "If you want to find out the origin of his weird attitude, you must learn from those two years. Start."

Shi Jin came back to his senses, nodded in response to his words, and did not continue this topic that made people feel uncomfortable.

After returning to the clubhouse, I went in to find Mr. Lian to report the situation, and told about Xu Chuan's strange attitude and my own speculations, trying my best to tell everything I knew, and to talk endlessly.

He sighed at the end, and lowered his tone: "I originally wanted to ask my elder brothers about their father's attitude towards their mother before my mother appeared, but the appearance of my elder brother and fourth brother at that time made it difficult for me to ask. .”

Lian Jun still looked down at the document, neither answered nor interrupted, and didn't know if he was listening.

Shi Jin simply lay down on the table and muttered to himself: "Actually, I heard some rumors that my father was looking for his eldest brother's mother not because he liked them, but because he wanted to have more sons. As far as I can remember, , I have never seen their mother, my dad intentionally avoided my meeting with them, blurring their existence. Before they were adults, every time they came to play, dad sent someone to pick them up, waiting for them When they are adults, they are the ones who come here by themselves, there are never any women in the house, and Dad rarely mentions them, as if he has no contact with them, and looks like he has completely cut ties with them."

"An eccentric father, a mother who was neglected and abandoned by his father, a younger brother who was loved alone, but still unknowingly wanted to get care from them... No wonder the eldest brother hated me, and even hated me. If it were me, I guess I also want to beat my irresponsible father to death, and then beat my ignorant younger brother to death."

Lian Jun finally raised his head from the document and said, "You won't."

"What?" Shi Jin didn't hear clearly and looked up at him.

"Based on your personality, even if you stand in the position of Shi Weichong and the others, you will only stay away from that mess, instead of getting together to cooperate with the acting." Lian Jun closed the document, picked up a pen and poked the time. Pushing his forehead, he slid the wheelchair and said, "It's time to eat, let's go to the restaurant."

Shi Jin touched the poked forehead, his eyes lit up, he leaned over to support Lian Jun's wheelchair graciously, and asked happily: "Young Master Jun, are you not angry with me?"

Lianjun did not refuse his hospitality, and folded his hands on his abdomen, with a motionless expression: "I'm not angry."

"You are obviously angry." Shi Jin happily pushed him forward, and said to himself, "Then you are not angry now, can you eat more? You obviously want to eat, right? , why hold back and not eat."

With a straight face, Lian Jun said coldly: "I can't bear it, you are too stupid to eat, it affects your appetite."

"..."

Shi Jin gritted his teeth and accepted the evaluation that eating looks too stupid, and said with condescension, "Well, I will try to eat more politely in the future."

Lian Jun tilted his head slightly and ignored him, but he ate half a bowl of rice and drank a few sips of soup this day.

Shi Jin became happy again, looking at Lian Jun like a child who was pleased by his old father looking at him who was finally obedient.

……

A few days later, Xu Tianhua, the former deputy director of Ruixing, was tricked back to the country by the police. He was secretly arrested at the airport and locked up next door to Xu Chuan.

Facing Xu Chuan's kidnapping accusation, Xu Tianhua bit him to death and refused to admit it, but Xu Chuan was like a broken jar, contrary to his previous silent attitude, he was not soft-spoken at all when he shook up the black material, and crackled Xu Tianhua He revealed everything he knew, from the little tricks he did in Ruixing to the evil things he did outside, and he also revealed the account number Xu Tianhua used to pay the deposit for the kidnapping case.

Xu Tianhua was so angry that he went crazy. After being bitten, he kept on doing nothing, and even tore Xu Chuan off the stage, and made it clear that he had sold secrets to him behind Shi Xingrui's back.

The two were dog-eat-dog, both were convicted, and received a pair of "silver bracelets". They will face a lot of charges in the future, and it is estimated that they will spend the rest of their lives in prison.

When Shi Jin got the confession from Xu Tianhua and Xu Chuan, he was in a complicated mood. At that time, he thought Xu Chuan was lying and deceiving others. He guessed that the person standing behind him should not be Xu Tianhua, but he didn't expect that these two people really worked together. Yes, they have colluded together hundreds of years ago.

He watched his progress bar drop to 600 directly after Xu Tianhua was arrested, and he didn't know what to say.

Judging from the two waves of decline in the progress bar, Xu Chuan and Xu Tianhua must have murderous intent on the original owner, and they really want to do something to the original owner, but they don't seem to be the most lethal factor for the original owner's death, because although the progress bar has dropped to The safety line, but there is still a large part of the rest that has not moved

"Aren't the kidnapping and car accidents caused by a wave of murderers?" Shi Jin slumped on the sofa, went through the ups and downs of his progress bar in his mind, and raised his hand to rub his forehead, "It seems that most of the ups and downs of the progress bar It makes sense to blame Xu Chuan and Xu Tianhua for the reason. For example, when we first arrived in City B, the progress bar skyrocketed, and when we met Weichong and the others, Xu Chuan confessed in the confession that Xu Tianhua had Xu Tianhua sent people to watch the movements of Shi Weichong and others. Xu Tianhua was very unwilling to be squeezed out of Ruixing by Shi Weichong. He tried to find out my whereabouts and used me to fight Shi Weichong. It can be regarded as entering Xu Tianhua's field of vision, and Xu Tianhua is also powerful in City B..."

Xiao Si was also analyzing hard, and said: "In the plot, the car accident happened after you contacted Shi Xingrui's old department and wanted to play tricks on Shi Weichong. Xu Tianhua wished that you and Shi Weichong were against each other. The car accident should not be him. Let's do it."

"So it's basically certain that Xu Tianhua didn't do the car accident. He has no motive." Shi Jin agreed with Xiao Shi's speculation, and then flipped through Xu Tianhua and Xu Chuan's confessions. Wei Chong, it wasn't Xu Tianhua either, so who did the car accident? Who took the opportunity to stir up trouble?"

Xiaosi thought hard, and then regretted that the machine stuck.

Shi Jin took a long breath to empty his mind, his thoughts wandered for a while, and finally decided to give up, got up to collect the confession, got up and left the room, and decided to go to have dinner with Lian Jun first.

The new year is getting closer and closer, and the club finally has a bit of a new year flavor. Various new year goods have been bought, and some blessings have been hung up. Dumplings appear frequently on the dining table, fried dumplings, steamed dumplings, soup dumplings, and dumplings of various flavors. It is very satisfying to eat well.

He put the last three delicacies dumpling on Lian Jun's plate with his chopsticks, and took the initiative to find a topic and said, "How is Chen Qing doing? Is there any movement?"

After deciding to take a conservative approach to saving people, Lian Jun has been standing still, betting that the leader of Black Rose will definitely come back again after digging a hole to harm people once.

Now half a month has passed without knowing it, but there is no follow-up news from Chen Qing's side. Fortunately, Chen Qing's two children are still locked up, let them know that Chen Qing should not be regarded as a waste by Black Rose Chess is dealt with.

Lian Jun glanced at the white and fat dumplings on the plate, and finally picked up the chopsticks again, ate the three delicacies dumplings, then wiped his mouth again, and replied: "The leader of the Black Rose is not a reckless person, and he will definitely do it in a thorough manner. After confirming that the last failed attack did not arouse my suspicion, I will plan the next operation, so wait, he will act sooner or later."

Shi Jin nodded to express his understanding, and then carefully suggested: "Then if Chen Qing comes to ask you out again, can you take me with you?"

Lian Jun looked at him sideways, and shook his head without hesitation: "No, the next meeting with Chen Qing is not just for eating, but also involves the rescue of Chen Qing. It is very likely that there will be a firepower conflict with Black Rose. You lack actual combat experience , can't take you."

Shi Jin did not give up: "I can hide in the periphery and not interfere with your actions."

"Then there's no need to take you with me, you stay in the clubhouse." Lian Jun's tone could not refuse.

Shi Jin wanted to say a few more words, Lian Jun directly reached out and picked up a piece of honeydew melon from the fruit plate and stuffed it into his mouth, then slid the wheelchair and left without looking back.

Crack clap.

Shi Jin shut up and gnawed on the melon, frowned, raised his hand to take off the leftover melon, and said vaguely: "Well, this melon is quite sweet..."

Little Death: "..."

For the next two days, Shi Weichong began to call Shijin every day, asking him about his arrangements for the New Year.Shi Jin considered again and again, but still declined Shi Weichong's invitation to take him home for the New Year, expressing that he wanted to stay in the clubhouse with Lianjun.

Shi Wei was so angry that he directly killed him.

Faced with Shi Weichong's face-to-face questioning, Shi Jin remained unmoved, and refused with reason: "How can I go to your house to celebrate the New Year with my identity? In the past few years, you have been forced by your father to go abroad and spend the New Year with you every year." We have never been with your mother and your mother's family. This year, you can finally accompany your mother. I will go again. What do you make your mother think? Anyway, I will not go unless you take me Broken leg, drag me over."

Shi Weichong was speechless, this year he really wanted to spend time with his mother, but he couldn't let go of Shi Jin, in this world, he still had relatives from his mother's side to accompany him, but Shi Jin's parents had both died. He was left alone.

Seeing that he still didn't let go, Shi Jin's tone softened, and he said earnestly: "Brother, I know you are worried about me, but it's okay, I still have a lot of people with me, not alone, you should spend good time with your family, I will send you a blessing text message, and you remember to return the red envelope to me." After speaking, he smiled at him and made a relaxed look.

The more he laughed, the tighter Shi Weichong frowned, and finally couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch his face and tugged, saying: "Don't laugh...the red envelope will definitely not miss you, then you are good, I will come It's up to you."

"I'm sure I'll be fine. It's not New Year's Eve if I don't gain a few pounds." Shi Jin said vaguely, pulled his hand off, stepped forward to give him a hug, and said, "Brother, Happy New Year, be safe every year."

Shi Weichong patted his back and sighed inwardly.

In the next few days, Shi Jin received phone calls and text messages from Xiang Ao Ting and Rong Zhouzhong one after another. Like Xiang Ao Ting and Shi Weichong, he wanted to invite Shi Jin to celebrate the New Year together, but Shi Jin still refused.Rong Zhouzhong only sent a text message, the content was the name and time of a TV station, saying that he would be on this station's live Spring Festival Gala that night, and Shi Jin could watch it in front of the TV.

Shi Jin replied happily: I will lock the channel on time to watch Monkey.

Rong Zhouzhong's reply was still short: Get lost.

Shi Jin collapsed on the sofa with his mobile phone in his arms, overjoyed, he found out the phone numbers of the other two brothers who hadn't met yet, thought about it, and sent a New Year text message one by one.

In the original plot, the second brother Fei Yujing and the fifth brother Li Jiuzheng have always been fascinated by the original owner.

The second elder brother Fei Yujing was a busy man. Before Shi Xingrui died, although he was flying all over the world, he would try his best to find time to meet the original owner, and would usually take pictures of interesting scenery around the world for the original owner to see. From time to time, he sent the original owner some special products from various places, which greatly satisfied the original owner's desire to travel around the world and take risks. He is a good brother who "although he is busy, but still cares about his younger brother".

After Shi Xingrui's death, Fei Yujing quickly disappeared from the original owner's life, did not answer the original owner's phone calls, did not reply to the original owner's text messages, and did not see the original owner. Far away, even if the original owner took the initiative to talk to him, he always had a cold attitude, looking at the original owner as if he was looking at a stranger, the kind of stranger he didn't like much.

He has never shown any strong love or hatred for the original owner. He is very reserved when he cares, and withdraws quickly when he is away. How nice it would be in this world” attitude.

In his eyes, the original owner was probably like a wrong ink dot on the document. It was not particularly annoying, but he wanted to erase its existence. Unfortunately, the ink dot could not be erased, so he ignored it as much as possible.
