Death of the Rhino

Xu You was awakened by a burst of bright light and found himself lying on the steering wheel.Unexpectedly, he, who has always been conscientious and conscientious, would be passive and sabotage his work for the first time as a substitute driver.

Qu Buyan didn't know if he was waiting for him in the underground parking lot, or if he didn't plan to pick him up at all?Xu You didn't know, he was asleep and didn't have a cell phone.From the moment they recognized Qu Buyan, they were passively waiting for him to come.

Speaking of which, Xu You seems to have never seen Qu Buyan using a mobile phone.He is like an ancient man living in a modern society.A nobleman who loves noodles.

At 01:30 in the morning, Xu You started the car and used the underground parking lot of Wanping Building.Wanping Building is not far from Shuilin Bay. Xu You's memory is so good that he can't forget the road after only walking it once.

Xu You parked the big car downstairs in the community, and before going upstairs, he turned his head to pay attention to it.At this glance, Xu You only felt that there was still a lot of room for improvement in his backing into the garage.

The elevator went up to the 21st floor, and Xu You stood in front of the door, wondering whether to knock on the door, or what he should do if there was no one inside.But his hand involuntarily turned the doorknob, and the door opened.Again the door was only ajar.

Xu You didn't go in, and stood outside the door with one hand open. There was an anxious powdery smell in the room.Polluted the faint fragrance in the room that he was reluctant to contaminate.If that wasn't enough for Xu You to stop outside the door, the lady's sun hat on the coat rack at the door completely labeled him an intruder.

"I'm back." Qu Buyan came out of the study, glanced at Xu You who was standing outside the door, pointed to the Rhinoceros sofa and said, "There is a convenience store downstairs, go shopping."

As soon as Xu You looked away from the sun hat on the coat rack, Qu Buyan entered the guest room.Xu You pushed open the door and went in, passed between the faint scent of fragrance and the anxious scent of powder, and came to the rhinoceros head sofa.Under a red Zippo lighter on the sofa, there are several hundred yuan coins pressed.Xu You pulled out the banknotes from under the lighter, and put the lighter back to its original position.

He stared at the RMB in his hand, and moved his eyes to the guest bedroom with the door closed.The sound of running water came from the bathroom, which had not been closed carefully. This sound made Xu You go out in a hurry, and quickly pressed the button of the elevator to go downstairs.

He tightly squeezed a few renminbi in his hand, and the sudden sharp pain in his middle finger made him subconsciously bite his lower lip.The pain in the middle finger has never been so severe. He stared at the changing numbers on the elevator, and then he said in his heart: "...18,19,20,21, [-], [-], [-], ding!"

Xu You had never felt that the elevator's notification sound was so pleasant. He almost got in impatiently when the elevator door just opened a crack, and quickly pressed the button that illuminated the first floor.

After the elevator door closed, Xu You saw himself on the elevator door—a dumpling that fled.Xu You didn't take a second look at the dumpling, but shifted his gaze to the lit buttons of the elevator one by one, and said loudly in his heart: "...4, 3,2,1, [-], [-], ding!"

Xu You almost broke out of the door again, as if there was some terrifying monster in the elevator.He didn't want to stay in it for a second.

Xu You went out of the building and searched frantically in the community.Finally, Xu You, who was sweating profusely on a sweltering night at the end of June, saw the convenience store that Qu Buyan was talking about.He strode towards the convenience store, stopped suddenly in front of the door, adjusted his breathing, and opened the door to go in.

"Welcome!" The cashier at the counter had a clean voice, probably a girl.Xu You didn't look at it, so he wasn't sure.As soon as he enters the door, he needs his target very impolitely - something that is unspoken.

The air conditioner in the convenience store was turned on a little low, which calmed down Xu You who was sweating in the community just now.Just standing in front of rows of colorful packaging boxes on the shelf, Xu Youyou began to sweat profusely.

This is Xu You's third purchase of condoms.The last time I bought it for my starling girlfriend, and the last time I bought it for my starling to confess to the goddess.This time, it was for his employer.Xu You looked at the colorful killers standing in rows, and suddenly wanted to ask himself if he was being too professional?

Xu You didn't know which one to buy, nor how much to buy.He lowered his head and glanced at the renminbi in his hand, and counted them with one hand, there were 21 in total.Xu You suddenly didn't know what to do.His previous two purchases hadn't taught him that a box of condoms cost so much.

Xu You stared at these murderers for a long time, and finally used the most stupid method - buy a box of each brand.As for the style, he also used a method that has no basis at all—all of them are packed in vermilion, and if there is no vermilion, choose the one that is closest to vermilion.In Xu You's opinion, this method is not stupid, but it does not make any sense at all.

He came to the counter with five boxes of vermilion suspects who were about to kill, and the cashier was indeed a little girl.Xu You placed the suspects who were about to kill in front of the cash register. The little girl stared at the five boxes of condoms in front of her with wide eyes, and looked at Xu You who was still sweating in panic and disbelief.It took a full ten seconds before the little girl paid the bill with her head in her mouth and her face blushing slightly.

Xu You also blushed slightly and pretended to look at the small commodities on the counter. He was familiar with the expression on the girl's face, much like the expression of the taciturn female doctor in the prison when she examined him.After scanning the suspects who were about to kill, the little girl took the initiative to sweep a convenience bag for Xu You.

Xu You settled the bill, carrying the convenience bag containing the suspects who were about to murder in one hand, and the remaining few RMB and the change in the other hand, and left the store.The night in June was really a steamer, and Xu You felt like a steamed dumpling covered in sweat.His steamed dumpling with long legs seemed to hurt his legs, and he couldn't walk fast.

Xu You came downstairs at a normal to no longer normal pace, and he didn't forget to turn his head to care for everyone in the parking space downstairs before going upstairs.He stood in front of the elevator door and pressed the elevator button without haste.

This time he didn't stare at the constantly decreasing numbers on the elevator, he just set his eyes on the elevator door, as if watching a dark scene in a movie that didn't know when it would start, just waiting blankly.

"Ding." After a reminder, the elevator door slowly opened.Xu You felt that the sound of the elevator was not so pleasant.After the elevator door was fully opened, Xu You entered the elevator and pressed the button for the 21st floor.The elevator door closed slowly, and Xu You's eyes were on the elevator door. This time, he seemed to be waiting for the curtain of a silent movie to end.

But he didn't know if he wanted to let him end the curtain.Because he doesn't know what will happen after the movie ends?Will there be a next one?Or, the audience needs to leave?

Xu You didn't hear the elevator's warning sound, and the elevator door opened slowly.The elevator door opened to the maximum and closed halfway, before Xu You got out of the elevator.The door should not be locked, just closed.So Xu You turned the doorknob again, this time not out of control, but on purpose.This time, what stopped him outside the door was Shi Hezi who had just come out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe.

Shi Hezi was startled at first, and then laughed casually.Xu You didn't stay on her for too long, he entered the door, closed the door behind his back, and came to the rhino head chair with a convenience bag.

What Xu You was thinking about was whether to put the unused renminbi and the change back under the red Zippo, but perhaps Qu Buyan didn't want to touch this kind of change that had been passed by so many people.

While Xu You was thinking, Shi Hezi took away the convenience bag in his hand with one finger. She supported her waist with one hand, and hung the convenience bag on her shoulder with the other, and walked towards the guest room step by step.It looked like a wrapped snake twisting its body and shedding its skin.

The sound of the guest room door being closed, the tumbling sound, the muffled sound of the impact, and - intermittent panting.Xu You's eyes lost focus on the nonchalant door of the guest bedroom, and he felt as if he was wrapped in a layer of airtight and smelly snakeskin, his hands were clasped tremblingly, and the banknotes in his hands were rustling.

Xu You suddenly felt out of breath. When this voice, this voice mixed with it, he wanted Wolfe.

where is wolfXu You searched everything within reach in the living room with his eyes in a panic.No, there is no Wolfe here.Where is he?

Xu You rushed into the study, throwing the change in his hand on the sofa in the study.He grabbed the canvas bag and opened the zipper, flipping through the neatly folded clothes one by one.again and again.No, not here.

Xu You put down the canvas bag and searched one by one on the neatly arranged bookshelves in the study.He didn't touch these books, the one he was looking for could be seen at a glance, he just stared at these books and searched.It's like the prison warden examining every single prisoner.

No, not on the shelf.Neither does the study.Xu You returned to the living room. He ran across the kitchen, checked the balcony, and swept the bathroom, but nothing.Under the 20-degree air conditioner in the room, Xu You was sweating profusely.Out of breath, he bent over and kept turning around the living room.He felt like the whole world was turning.This dizzying feeling made him even more panicked.

The sound of the guest room continued, and Xu You's rotation speed increased, and suddenly he saw the door.It's like seeing a precarious candlelight in the dark night, more like a gasping hole pierced in the snakeskin bondage.Xu You rushed to the door.

"What's the matter?" Xu You heard the sound of the door opening, as well as the soft rustling sound.Xu You's hand just touched the doorknob, so the opened door was behind him.

Xu You's hand was still on the doorknob, he turned his head hastily, glanced at Qu Buyan who was straightening his tie at the door of the guest room, then lowered his head and whispered, "Wolf is gone."

"I'll go out and look for it." Xu You didn't wait for Qu Buyan's permission, and directly opened the door and rushed out.In front of the elevator door, he kept pressing the button with his palm, eager to hear the elevator reminder.

When the number on the elevator changed to 21, which he was anxiously looking forward to, he almost broke open the elevator door and got in.Xu Youyou in the elevator kept pressing the button for the first floor.When the elevator's reminder sounded again, Xu You opened the elevator door and rushed out.

He didn't drive, he knew the way from Shuilinwan to Wanping Mansion.He rushed all the way to Wanping Building, walked through the noisy and chaotic underground passages, brushed through the garbage bags that fell asleep all day long, and finally was exhausted outside the billiards shop.

At 02:30 in the morning, the billiard shop was closed.Xu You knew that Wolf could not be in the store.How could he have left that book here when he left the store.But he still came, and he still ran all the way, because he had nowhere to go except here.It is more because he needs a destination to go to.

Xu You didn't look at the store again, he turned around and passed the sleeping garbage bag again.No goodbyes, no after-hours period.He just went back the same way.It's just that when he returned, he walked back slowly.

Wolfe was gone.He lost Wolfe.
