Chasing the Mist

There was a faint moonlight in the room, and Gu Xun's sword-browed and star-eyed eyes looked extraordinarily handsome.

Originally, Lin Yiran had no idea, but Gu Xun got so close and immediately had it.

This kind of unintentional teasing is obviously playing with fire, and one day Gu Xun will catch fire, Lin Yiran thought about it wildly, knowing that the kiss that day made Gu Xun angry, he dared not do it again, "You are afraid, I will go out and sleep in the living room .”

Let alone the fact that the bench is short and hard, sleeping curled up all night, the whole body is sore and unable to recover from fatigue, even if Lin Yiran really takes action, Gu Xun is not afraid, because Lin Yiran is not as skilled as him, so he pushes Lin Yiran back, "Sleep!"

Lin Yiran didn't speak, and lay back on the bed.

Gu Xun turned on the light, pulled the quilts to both sides, revealing a gap, and drew a line on the gap, "Be honest, don't cross the line."

"..." Lin Yiran was also speechless to this kind of elementary school student's behavior, so he just sat up and folded the quilt into a pile in the middle, like a low wall.

After turning off the lights, Gu Xun still couldn't sleep. Although it's May and the weather is much warmer, it's still cold at night. Sleeping without a quilt is guaranteed to catch a cold.

He touched Lin Yiran's low wall built with quilts, and bursts of irritability poured out. After living together for nearly 13 years, something has grown into his bone marrow. Whether it is love or hate, Lin Yiran's attitude can't change his deep-rooted habits. For many years, the cat, whether it is acting like a baby in the arms or madly scratching people, can't change the habit of taking care of it every day.

He sighed secretly, gave up struggling, sat up, kicked off the "low wall", and said angrily, "Cover it."

Lin Yiran had just fallen asleep, and was woken up by the yelling. At this moment, he was full of rage, pulled the quilt over his body, and said angrily, "I'm sick!"

Gu Xun heard that he was angry, somehow he felt better, he smiled silently, lay back and fell asleep.

The next day after Gu Xun finished washing, he saw a cup of warm milk on the dining table. He thought it was Lin Yiran's warm milk, so he took it up and drank it all in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yuan came out of the kitchen with a sandwich, looked at the empty milk glass on the dining table, and scratched his messy hair, "Who drank my freshly warmed milk?"

Gu Xun: "..."

Lin Yiran, who was making breakfast, secretly laughed when he heard this.

Gu Xun raised his hand to grab Gu Yuan's pink hair, and frowned habitually, "Why don't you dye it green?"

Gu Yuan: "..."

"How's your internship going?"

Gu Yuan felt uncomfortable with his brother's sudden concern, and glanced at him, "It's pretty good."

"You have only been in Baicheng for a few days, where did you make those friends?" Gu Xun asked.

Gu Yuan gnawed on the sandwich and said vaguely: "What friend?"

"The guy who goes to the bar with you"

Gu Yuan rolled his eyes, remembering the day he met his cousin, he poked his thumb and index finger, "As long as you have money (money), you will be friends everywhere."

Gu Xun: "..."

Gu Yuan has never left his parents since he was a child, and his habits and ideas are deeply influenced by Gu Renli. Some of his ideas run counter to Gu Xun's. If it weren't for the same blood in his body, Gu Xun would never have any intersection with his younger brother.

"Dye your hair back for me." Gu Xun said in a bad voice.

Gu Yuanbai glanced at him, went into the kitchen with an empty plate, and patted Lin Yiran on the shoulder, "How did you live with that manic man all these years?" pointing to the living room."

Lin Yiran smiled and raised his eyebrows: "Use violence to control violence."

Gu Yuan opened his mouth. In his memory, Lin Yiran's eyes were always indifferent, as if it was written that strangers should not get close. He couldn't imagine his irritable appearance. He repeated in doubt, "Use violence to control violence?"

Lin Yiran didn't explain much, and rolled up his sleeves to reveal a scar, "We got hurt in a fight before."

Gu Yuan clicked his tongue, turned his head to look out of the window, his gaze melted into the morning light, his expression was vague, and he said without thinking: "That's all."

With a "touch", Lin Yiran closed the refrigerator door, unable to hear what Gu Yuan said, "Huh?"

Gu Yuan smiled: "Nothing" and turned to leave the kitchen.

After moving to be Gu Xun's neighbor, Zheng Yuan's condition is better than before, and she takes the initiative to come to Gu Xun's house with Yuan He as a guest.

When she was in high school, she accompanied Wu Shanshan to Gu Xun's house a few times, and each time she waited downstairs. It was the first time she stepped into the house. She looked around curiously. The house was not big, but it was clean and tidy. There is a sense of age, with many yellowed old photos hanging on the wall.

In one of the photos, the old man was wearing a police officer's uniform, standing straight as a pine, with a serious expression and serious brows, holding a five or six-year-old boy in his arms. The child was also wearing a police uniform, with a straight face and sharp eyes. of light.

Zheng Yuan suddenly understood the reason for Wu Shanshan's obsession with Gu Xun. He grew up in a police family with strong roots, and he has been influenced by his ears and eyes.

That kind of strength makes people feel safe. With him, the wind and waves have become calm. Wu Shanshan's fate is too shallow to be the woman in his arms. Over the years, the women around Yuan He have changed one after another. But he has always been alone, and he has never been attracted to any woman. Zheng Yuan can't imagine what it will be like to spend the rest of his life with him.

Looking down at the photo, the teenager Gu Xun is holding the child Lin Yiran in his arms. Gu Xun's eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and his white teeth are shining brightly. Suddenly, Zheng Yuan feels disgusted and stops looking at the photo. His eyes follow the white wall and extend to The door to the second bedroom, the double bed is facing the door, and a pair of pillows on the bed are eye-catching.

She thought that Gu Xun and Gu Yuan lived in the same room, "Are you two brothers sharing the same bed? No one lives in my second bedroom, so Gu Xun can move to mine."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yiran's hands in the coat were visibly stiff, and he couldn't help but glance at Gu Xun. At the same time, Yuan He was also taken aback, and stood up directly, "That's not okay, the second bedroom is mine, and Gu Xun and I Sleeping together is more crowded."

Lin Yiran breathed a sigh of relief, for the first time he had an indescribable liking for Yuan He, and then continued to dress indifferently.

Zheng Yuan glared at Yuan He, but said nothing.

After Gu Yuan finished blowing his hair, he shook his pink hair in the mirror, and corrected him: "Sister Yuan, Gu Xun slept with Brother Xiaoran, not me."

Zheng Yuan raised her eyes to look at Lin Yiran, with deep disgust in her eyes.

Lin Yiran was used to her gaze long ago, and focused on arranging things without taking it seriously.

Gu Xun can't do it, he has protected the child for more than ten years, he can fight and quarrel with the child, even if others look at him lightly, even if Lin Yiran is gay or perverted, he can't.

There were sporadic flames in his deep eyes, he stopped playing with the lighter fingers, pressed the fire to light the cigarette, and took a deep breath, "The two of us sleep well in that bed, squeeze a little to keep warm."

Lin Yiran: "..." Throwing away a quilt is warmer.

"Gu Xun." Zheng Yuan called his name in a long voice, staring at the "true murderer" who killed Wu Shanshan with disbelief.

"Let's get down to business, what's going on between you and Gao Meiyue?" Gu Xun ignored her reaction, with impatience in his eyes.

Zheng Yuan didn't answer, she followed her own train of thought and said, "Is this worthy of Shanshan? I'm really not worth it for Shanshan."

Gu Xun threw the Zippo lighter on the glass coffee table and said coldly, "If you don't want to tell me at home, tell me at the police station."

These years, Gu Xun's indifference to Wu Shanshan, Zheng Yuan, as a bystander, saw it clearly, and often complained about injustices for her girlfriends. After Wu Shanshan died, the resentment was directly directed at Gu Xun.

Hearing what Gu Xun said, her spoiled young lady suddenly lost her temper, "I don't want to talk about my mouth, and it's useless to go to the police station."

Gu Xun got up and put on his clothes, "Ok! Then wait to be the next victim."

"How do you know that the next person to be killed must be me? It might be Xin Chang or Meng Fan." Zheng Yuan refused to let go.

Gu Xun didn't say a word, ignored Yuan He's persuasion, and walked out, leaving home for work.

After being busy for a long time, Zheng Yuan ran to the police station by herself in the afternoon, "Gu Xun save me, someone seems to have entered my house."

Gu Xun didn't care about the morning's affairs, handed over a glass of water, and said lightly: "Let's explain clearly about Gao Meiyue first."

Zheng Yuan took a sip of water, calmed down, and talked about the past ten years ago.

At that time, in Dormitory 306, Gao Meiyue was the most beautiful and had the best grades, but her family conditions were the worst. Girls who were too outstanding were the most likely to cause jealousy.

One time when they returned to school on a weekend, the three of them returned to school early, and when they returned to the dormitory, they ran into the homeroom teacher ruining Gao Meiyue in the dormitory. She was ignorant and ignorant at that age, and was terrified of this matter. Li Mengmeng called the police and Wu Shanshan refused to let her go. Later, the homeroom teacher talked to the three of them, using hard and soft tactics, intimidating and seducing at the same time, Cheng Ruo as long as they don't say anything about it, the three of them will choose seats in the class at will, this successfully traps Wu Shanshan, in order to get closer to Gu Xun, she He promised the head teacher to keep this matter to himself.

Afterwards, Gao Meiyue wanted to call the police, fearing that the class teacher would not admit it, so she asked her roommates for help in the dormitory, hoping that they would go to the police station to testify for her, but Wu Shanshan flatly refused.

There are more than [-] girls in the class, Wu Shanshan doesn't pay attention to them at all, Gao Meiyue is different, she is more beautiful than Wu Shanshan, and she has better grades than her, Wu Shanshan has seen her discussing mathematics with Gu Xun talking and laughing Wu Shanshan can't feel at ease with her existence, if she can transfer or drop out of school, that would be great.

Wu Shanshan watched Gao Meiyue's experience coldly, and even used it to humiliate her. Zheng Yuan had no idea. She heard that she liked Wu Shanshan. Li Meng wanted to help her, but she couldn't resist Wu Shanshan's stop.

That incident didn't affect them at all, and they got benefits and excuses because of it. They looked at the dazzling flowers in the class indifferently, withering and withering a little bit. Gao Meiyue's smile became less and less, and she never asked Gu Xun for advice. , her pride collapsed little by little.

Everyone is busy with schoolwork, puppy love, chasing stars... No one noticed Gao Meiyue's temper became more and more eccentric.

Gu Xun was born with a keen insight. He discovered Gao Meiyue's abnormality, but he was not sure about the girl's good and bad emotions, so he never asked. Once in a physical education class, he sat aside after playing basketball Drinking water, I accidentally caught a glimpse of Gao Meiyue who was alone, her eyes were dry and lifeless, and she was no longer as radiant as before.

There are too many secrets of girls, he has no intention of exploring them, he just hopes that the comrades who are fighting for the first place together will not be sluggish.

He stepped forward and handed Gao Meiyue a bottle of water, without asking anything, and sat quietly with her for a while, Gao Meiyue suddenly couldn't help crying, she hugged her knees with her hands, bowed her head, her shoulders trembled violently.

Gu Xun took a tissue for her.

When Gao Meiyue picked up the paper, she saw a muscular and powerful arm that seemed to be able to pull her out of the quagmire. She tightly grasped Gu Xun's wrist, squeezed the grievances in her heart for many days, and cried out .

Her sadness was so real, Gu Xun couldn't bear to pull out his hand, and let her hold and cry.

There was no affection between them, nor each other, and they didn't even feel their hands. Gu Xun didn't feel at ease at all, but was relieved by the girl passing by, who hurried to tell Wu Shanshan.

Wu Shanshan trotted all the way over, seeing Gao Meiyue grabbing Gu Xun's wrist, she was so angry all over, she tried her best not to lose her temper, and went back to the dormitory after school.

The anger during the day was doubled, she pulled Gao Meiyue's hair and slammed it against the wall, and slapped her face a few more times, humiliating her with all her ugly voices, she had a handle in her hand, she was sure that Gao Meiyue would not dare to do anything, and acted even more recklessly .

Wu Shanshan's two good friends, one helped her guard the door, and the other watched cowardly and stood by. As she thought, Gao Meiyue did not fight back or speak out the whole time, like a walking dead at the mercy of others.

The hope that Gu Xun brought to Gao Meiyue was completely shattered into powder, and was blown away without a trace by the wind. The next morning, she jumped off the window sill of the class without a trace.

The police once suspected that Gao Meiyue suffered an injury to her forehead. No one in the class knew the cause. The girl in the same dormitory insisted that she was under a lot of pressure from studying. She studies stressful and often emotionally unstable situations.

Gao Meiyue comes from the countryside, and her family conditions are not good. Her parents went to the city to study high school and gave everything to support her. She is the only hope in the family and the spiritual sustenance of her parents.

Based on her family situation, the police believed what they said, and the suicide case was closed.

Wu Shanshan, Zheng Yuan, and Li Meng continued their high school life, but went back to the dormitory to sleep every night. Li Meng had nightmares. She dreamed that Gao Meiyue turned into a ghost and came back to claim her life. She became suspicious and almost told Wu Shan several times. Shan bullying|Ling Gao Meiyue's matter, after the college entrance examination, she had a quarrel with Wu Shanshan, and they parted ways.

After work, Wu Shanshan took the initiative to ask her to get back together, and Gao Meiyue became a secret that the three of them kept silent, keeping her heart shut until Wu Shanshan's death, which cast a shadow over Zheng Yuan and Li Meng.

After hearing about Gao Meiyue, Gu Xun never dreamed that the act of handing water back then would kill a girl. He gasped and smoked two cigarettes before he calmed down and returned to the case. How many people know about this?"

Zheng Yuan: "After being questioned by the police, Gao's family had suspected it and approached us many times in private. We didn't admit it. They had no evidence and had to give up. I never said anything to anyone. Wu Shanshan told Zhang Yanchen after drinking that Li Meng didn't Clear, but according to her personality, she won't tell the outside world."

Gu Xun immediately arranged for someone to check Gao Meiyue's family. It turned out that Gao Meiyue also had a younger brother—Gao Xilin, 25 years old, graduated from junior high school, and a shoe factory worker.

Gao Xilin and his father Gao Guochang quickly became the latest suspects in the disembarkation case.

However, the case was far more complicated than Gu Xun imagined. On the night when the police found the Gao family and his son, Liu Yifeng had another finger chopped off. Meng Fan, who disappeared on the day Li Meng was murdered, was searched all over the city by the police and could not be found. His whereabouts are still unknown. Uncertain.

The author has something to say: I have been too busy these days, so I have been waiting for a long time.
