liar

When it was almost one subway station away from the school, Lan Le asked the driver to stop, and led Xu Huaiyan, who had an incomprehensible expression, out of the car.

"What's wrong? Did you leave something in the store?"

"No." Lan Le shook her head and pointed to a building opposite: "Brother Yan, can you accompany me back to get something? I was too anxious to go out in the morning and forgot. It's not far, it's right there."

"Where?" Xu Huaiyan looked in the direction he pointed, it was an apartment building: "Why didn't I know you still have a house here."

"My dad bought it for me after the college entrance examination. He said that my brother's friends like to be lively, and he was afraid that it would be inconvenient for me to live with my brother."

It turns out that Lan Le is really noisy, sometimes he can't stand it, not to mention the quiet Lan Qin, Uncle Lan is very considerate.

"Let's go then."

Xu Huaiyan followed Lan Qin upstairs and returned to the apartment. The two-bedroom house was not too big, but it was decorated exquisitely and beautifully. As soon as you entered the door, you could see the bookshelves that occupied almost the entire wall, filled with all kinds of books. The gentleman Lan Qi on the balcony There is a neat row, and the whole inside has a particularly strong literary and artistic atmosphere.

As soon as Lan Qin got home, he got into the kitchen, and when he came out, he handed a bottle of soda that had been pulled off the tab to Xu Huaiyan, who had consciously sat on the sofa: "Brother Yan, wait for me, my room is a bit messy, It will take a while to find, but I promise, it will be fine soon."

"It's okay." Xu Huaiyan waved his hand indifferently: "Go, I'll wait for you."

Lan Chin smiled apologetically, picked up his phone and went back to his room.

Unlike the full living room, the room was exaggeratedly empty.Lan Qin closed the door and sat down on the tidy big bed. He didn't do anything with his mobile phone, but stared at a clock hanging above the front in a daze. After a while, he got up and opened the door and went back to the living room. Xu Huaiyan had already He fell asleep on the sofa, with half a can of soda left on the coffee table, and a black jewelry shopping bag at his feet.

He walked over to open the bag with a blank expression, the sparse sound did not affect the sleeping person in any way, Xu Huaiyan was in a deep sleep, and his brows did not move.

There are two red velvet boxes, each of which contains two necklaces converted from rings. The design and color are symmetrical, and you can tell that they are a pair of rings at a glance.

Lan Qin pulled the corner of his mouth abruptly, took out one that was on the middle finger of his left hand, it was too big, he took it off and threw it back on the coffee table, and took out the other one that was stuck on the middle finger, it was too small, stuck on the second joint and couldn’t be put on .

Annoyedly throwing the ring on the ground, he turned to stare at the heavy man with a gloomy expression. After a long while, he raised his hand to caress his browbones, and his cold fingertips brushed across the tip of his nose, resting on the broken skin of his lips. Wound.

"Brother Yan, are you angry with me on purpose?"

Of course Xu Huaiyan didn't respond to him, he was still breathing steadily, unshakable.

Lan Qin moved closer and touched the beautiful cinnabar mole at the corner of his eye: "If only you could be so obedient all the time, why do you have to provoke others? You know I saw you smiling at others, talking to others Wouldn't you be unhappy if someone was so close to you, or even touched by others?"

"I wanted to wait a little longer. After all, it's been so long, but who made you so disobedient."

The low-pitched whisper was like the most intimate whisper between lovers. Lan Qin closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against his forehead to relax for a while. When he opened his eyes again, the frightening color of Fan Yong in his eyes had been completely hidden, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed. , regained the appearance of a clean and shy boy.

The arm passed through the bend of the leg and carried the man back to the room and put him on the bed. Then he found a metal handcuff from the bedside table, one end was handcuffed on Xu Huaiyan's slender white wrist, the other end was handcuffed on the head of the bed, and he pulled up the spotless white quilt cover. On him, before leaving, she reluctantly dropped a kiss as light as a feather on the top of his hair.

"Brother Yan, wait for me obediently, I will be back soon."

Xie Shu waited until three o'clock and didn't wait for the person to come back. He waited patiently for another half an hour, and finally couldn't help calling him, only to find that the other person's cell phone was turned off.

After changing hands, he immediately called Lan Le again. After ringing for a long time, the other party answered slowly, speaking intermittently, obviously unconscious: "Crooked...that..."

"I'm Xie Shu, is Xu Huaiyan with you?"

"Xie Shu... um..."

"Lan Le!"

The person who was still awake on the bed was frightened by the suddenly cold tone, and tried to recall the memory of last night: "Hey... Isn't the other person already picked up by you... What? Will you be with me?"

"He left this morning, and now the phone has been turned off and can't get through. I can't reach him."

"I can't get in touch, I guess I'm just sleeping at home..."

Xie Shu simply hung up the phone, handed over the dormitory key to Lu Yue, and told him to keep an eye on it. If Xu Huaiyan came back, he would be notified immediately. Then he walked quickly to the parking lot at the school gate to find his car, and went directly to Xu Huaiyan's house. go.

When Xu Huaiyan moved out last time, he asked him to put the keys on the bar, but he didn't do so, and now the keys are still safe in his trouser pocket.

When he arrived at the door, he took out the key and opened the door with ease, glanced at the sofa and saw no one, then went straight to the bedroom, but even the bedroom was empty and no one was there, Xie Shu frowned and searched the master bedroom and the second bedroom one by one, making sure that Xu Huaiyan was not at all not at home.

Where will you go.

Could it be that she deliberately avoided seeing him?

This idea only flashed in my mind for a moment and was immediately dismissed.

Xu Huaiyan is emotionally cowardly, but he will never take his words seriously. He dared to answer his phone after running away, and he would definitely come back after he said he would come back to him, just like the last piece of paper he was handed to him back then. Tiao, saying goodbye is goodbye, he is such a person, he loves to lie, but he never promises others empty words.

Where did it go?Xie Shu's palms became cold, and his heart flustered violently.

On the other side, Lan Le, who was dizzy and threw down his phone and rolled himself back into the quilt, closed his eyes and squinted for an unknown amount of time. After recalling Xie Shu's words in his dream, he suddenly felt violent Opening his eyes, he lifted the quilt and sat up quickly, because his temples throbbed a few times because he got up too quickly, and his blood vessels almost burst.

Pressing his temples, he quickly called Xie Shu.

"Great talent, did you find anyone?"

"No." Xie Shu's voice was still mixed with the whistling wind, Lan Le subconsciously glanced out of the window, the black clouds were low, and the treetops were about to be snapped off.

"I went to his house and searched all the way back to school from his house but couldn't find him. I have contacted all possible classmates, but there is no news."

His voice sounded exhausted, mixed with a sense of helplessness that was completely out of tune with him.

Such Xie Shu made Lan Le's throat choke. Although the next words were cruel, he still had to tell him: "Xiao Xu's mobile phone will never be turned off!" He said: "Auntie was seriously ill that year He couldn't reach his father, and he didn't receive a call on his mobile phone because the battery was exhausted. He almost didn't see his mother for the last time. At first, he never turned off the phone! As long as the battery of the mobile phone is lower than 20.00%, he can panic to the sky, It is impossible to shut down for such a long time, something must have happened!"

There was silence for a long time, and Lan Le heard him take a deep breath, trying to suppress his emotions: "The police station did not allow the case to be filed within 24 hours of his disappearance. Where else would he go? Where else can I find him?" he?!"

Lan Le asked him, "where are you now?"

"School." Xie Shu thought of a place: "Where's the Xu family? Is it possible for him to go back?!"

"Impossible." Lan Le immediately denied his thoughts: "His family has gone to the United States except him, and he has moved out of that family a long time ago. There is nothing in it, and it is impossible for him to go back. I am now I'll come to you right away, and we'll talk when we meet."

Having said that, Lan Le couldn't help sending Xu Huai'an a message on the way to find Xie Shu, asking him cryptically if Xu Huaiyan agreed to go to the United States with him. After getting a negative answer, although it was unexpected But it still made him feel like his heart was hanging in the air.

In the past, the brothers Lan Le, who used to make appointments with each other, called and sent messages to greet each of them, and the answers they got were all disappointing.

When seeing Xie Shu leaning against the side of the car with a gloomy face, Lan Le clearly saw that the other party's eyes lit up when he saw him, and when he found that he didn't bring good news, they darkened again, his face was so gloomy and scary, like He is a black panther who is so angry that he has nowhere to vent, and his calm is superficial. If someone accidentally steps on his tail, he will rush over and tear him to pieces in the next second.

Lan Le suddenly understood why Xu Huaiyan, who had been flaunting his might for so many years, was subdued by Xie Shuyi.

He stood still half a step away from him: "Calm down first, maybe our thoughts are too pessimistic, disappearance is just the worst outcome among [-] possibilities, maybe he really just ran out of battery. .”

Xie Shu stood up straight, and his indifferent eyes swept across his face. If it weren't for the fact that the call records in the phone did not exist, Lan Le would have suspected that the person on the phone who was obviously not calm just now had nothing to do with him. This one is not the same at all.

"Don't waste your time giving me this kind of useless comfort. I don't need it. I just want to know where else he might go now."

"I asked everyone who could go, no." Lan Leqiang's spirit was punctured sharply, his eyebrows drooped and he was dejected: "I even asked his brother, but he said he didn't see anyone. "

"What about other places?" Xie Shu tried to keep his mind clear: "Is there any place where he likes to be alone, such as his mother's cemetery."

"No!" Lan Le was categorical: "He doesn't like to be alone, every time the sadder the mood, the more exciting it is, and he has always known how to measure in this respect, he will never play and disappear for no reason, and he will never be angry again Yes, I dare to use people to guarantee it.”

"And then?" Xie Shu asked him.

When Lan Le panicked, he would be in a daze and couldn't find any logic, let alone think about countermeasures. Facing Xie Shu's questioning, he couldn't choose what to say: "Why don't we wait and see? Maybe there is no big problem at all. , Is it because we have too much brains and worry too much? If Xu ran back by himself just after making a fuss, it would be a waste of manpower and material resources. He could blame us to death, and the police also said that it would be meaningful to file a case if he disappeared for more than 24 hours. Isn't it?"

"If he likes to blame, let him blame!" Xie Shu suddenly growled, the knuckles holding the phone were completely white, trembling with the most invisible: "Waste is waste, as long as he can be found now , I don’t want to think about anything else, everything is insignificant compared to him.”
