Chen Nian was sitting on the edge of the flower bed at the school gate. He blocked the sun with his hands, his eyes were half closed, and he was sending some messages on his mobile phone with his head down.

The black off-road vehicle slowed down and drove towards this side. Wei Liao lowered the window and put one hand on the steering wheel. His shirt sleeves were rolled up at the elbows, exposing his strong forearms.The young professor turned his head to look, his pale face was in stark contrast to Chen Nian's flushed cheeks outside the car.

Chen Nian clenched the strap of his backpack tightly. After thinking about it for a while, he went around the rear of the car and opened the passenger's door.

The air-conditioning in the car was so strong that the young man shivered suddenly.

Holding the bag in his arms, Chen Nian nestled on the seat, his nostrils moving, carefully discerning the fragrance in the air.

It has a cool, unique scent with a bit of cedar.

Complimenting Wei Liao's taste in his heart, Chen Nian moved his eyes around, and finally found a small bottle of car perfume in the glove box.

Wei Liao raised the temperature inside the car a bit. He looked at the restless young man, gripped the steering wheel tightly, and reminded, "Seat belt."

The car drove smoothly, Chen Nian lay on the window, watching the figures flashing by outside, his eyelids began to feel heavy again for some reason.

Covering his mouth and yawning, the water vapor in Chen Nian's eyes began to surge again.

If you can't sleep, you can't sleep, you'll be a pig if you sleep any longer!

Slapping his face with his hand, Chen Nian bit the tip of his tongue, and the instant tingling pain woke him up.

The water mist that was about to disappear in his eyes gathered again because of the pain, filling his entire field of vision in the blink of an eye.

The dilapidated buildings with mottled lights and shadows appeared in the blurred vision. After Chen Nian hastily wiped his eyes, he realized that the car had stopped, and Wei Liao, who was beside him, turned sideways and approached him.

Stretching out his hand to take out the napkin beside him, Wei Liao looked at the young man with an inexplicable panic on his face, and said in a concentrated voice, "What's wrong?"

Chen Nian felt that his mind was suddenly a little dull. He let the other party wipe the tissue over the corner of his eyes, and finally watched the man unbuckle his seat belt.

The young man didn't dare to move, so he could only move his eyes to divert his attention.

Looking at it, he found a person.

A light yellow long dress appeared from the corner, and the woman was playing with her fluffy hair, and the sunglasses on her face made it difficult to see her expression clearly.Behind her was Du Heng in a police uniform. The man lowered his head and was moving his mouth. He didn't know what to say, but his face was serious.

"You said you knew Xu Fang and the others before?"

Liu Yu is 40 years old this year, but with proper maintenance, her actual age can't be seen at all. She raised her red lips slightly, and said firmly: "Yes, I only found out not long ago that Wu Di, Xu Fang, and Li Quan used to be neighbors. "

"And Wu Di is at least ten years younger than us, so logically speaking, we don't have any practical contact."

Du Heng followed her forward and frowned at the same time: "Then what did Li Quan and Xu Fang do?"

Liu Yu's red nails swayed in the air, "Aren't you a policeman? I can't even find clues about your identity. How could I know?"

Silently approaching the building together with her, Du Heng raised his eyes and saw a car parked in the distance.

Because this area was under construction, occasionally someone would randomly find a seat in the open area here, so Du Heng took it easy and turned into the alley with Liu Yu, intending to go to the school to meet someone.

Chen Nian saw the whole process in the car, and he quickly opened the app while Wei Liao was not paying attention, and at a glance he confirmed that Liu Yu was one of his only remaining teammates.

Although he didn't know what Liu Yu and Du Heng were doing here, Chen Nian suddenly gained confidence.

So Chen Nian, who was full of vindictiveness, didn't see the weird curvature of Wei Liao's mouth, but pushed the car door open, got out of the car and urged, "Aren't you going?"

Wei Liao suppressed the excitement in his eyes. He lowered his eyes and put his coat on his arms, then closed the car door, and walked to Chen Nian with long legs.

"Of course."

Wei Liao led Chen Nian into the door, and Chen Nian looked around, feeling familiar.

Sure enough, when they went up the stairs to the third floor, Chen Nian looked at the gleaming white seal on the innermost door, and realized where it was.

Wu Di's home.

Wei Liao seemed to be okay, he took out a key and stood in front of a door, and with the rotation of his wrist, the dilapidated door opened.

"This is where I lived for 18 years as a kid."

The furniture in the house was frighteningly sparse, but it was surprisingly clean.It's just that the scratches and dents on the wall were extremely conspicuous in the small house, and the black spots of blood dried up alone in the corner, and even splashed a lot on the furniture beside it.

The story I know from other people's memories is different from the feeling of observing it with my own eyes.

The only windows in the house have been sealed by wooden boards, and there are still a lot of sawdust on the edges of those small narrow slits, which were obviously dug out by hand.

No wonder the young Wei Liao looked like that.

Chen Nian could imagine that more than ten years ago, the skinny teenager was curled up in a corner, maybe even hugged his sister, and stared at his violent father with wide eyes.

"Are you surprised?"

Wei Liao's words brought Chen Nian back to reality. He took the glass with a blink of an eye, and sat down on a low stool.He looked up at the man who was obviously out of place in this place. The latter also lowered his head, and the broken hair on his forehead blocked his beautiful eyes.

"Can't you imagine that I have such a terrible childhood?"

Holding the cup tightly, Chen Nian looked at the corner of the table that had already changed color. He didn't answer the man's question, but just sniffed and asked, "Did it hurt at that time?"

The corners of his mouth curled up in sarcasm, and Wei Liao's eyes were dark, "It hurts, but the more I yell it hurts, the happier he is."

Chen Nian took a sip of water, he opened his eyes wide and comforted, "It's all over."

"Yeah, he's dead." Wei Liao leaned back against the edge of the table, playing with the sharp cufflinks, and smiled with his eyelids half-closed, "But I still have to thank him..."

Chen Nian turned his head, he was dizzy and curious to know what Wei Liao would like to thank, but his eyes started to wander, and the man in front of him spun around.

He wrinkled his face and tried to regain his senses, but he couldn't move his fingers as if they were out of control.Everything in front of him began to fade, and finally gradually sank into darkness.

The glass in his hand slipped instantly, and the fragments from the explosion splashed to Wei Liao's feet.

Wei Liao looked at the comatose young man with a cold look in his eyes.He picked up the man by his waist, and then walked into the dark room.

With the weak light outside, Wei Liao knelt on the bed with one leg, and flexibly unbuttoned Chen Nian's collar with his slender fingers.

His hand landed on the swollen pinch mark on the young man's neck, and the man sighed.

"You shouldn't be so curious."
