Nine Prison Rings

Chapter 112 Rashomon

Chen Can suddenly launched an attack without beginning or end, which made Luo Xiu unprepared; he was caught off guard.Thanks to him, he is considered a veteran in the battlefield, and he has long practiced the combat skills of opening his eyes and talking nonsense. .

"Do I have it?" Luo Xiu pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, with a puzzled expression, he did it impeccably.Like a textbook, it is an example of the best on-the-spot response without error.

Chan, with his black shiny eyes open, blinked with a smile, and nodded affirmatively; that shrewd and agile appearance is so cute, so cute.

"Well. You have."

Luo Xiu immediately displayed his actor-like acting skills and laughed loudly: "That only shows that you have a fatal attraction to me."

"There are bandit gentlemen, who are as sharp as they are sharpened, as sharp as they are sharpened... A beloved man is as good as the first glance, and his beauty can be eaten—"

A few words cobbled together, neither fish nor fowl; Although Can was dumbfounded, it couldn't stop the slightest sweetness in his heart.After all, there are few people in the world who can resist being praised by others.

The sweet words Luo Xiu said to Can can be measured in terms of tonnage; there are also more nasty things than this.It can almost be assembled into a book and printed into a collection of love poems.But it was the first time that he was disgusted by what he said.The rhetoric that comes out of the mouth is just a slow poison that creates doubts and uncertainties about the relationship.Worst of all, it seems to be a logical part of professional skills, and it has been fully utilized.

Accidentally, Luo Xiu was surprised to realize the hypocrisy of his own nature.

"Really? I, am I still so attractive to you?..."

A double negation is an affirmation.

Chen Can blinked, and the smile on his face was erratic and dim...but indeed, it was a smile.

"You, today is weird—"

"Me? What's so strange?" Luo Xiu was overwhelmed with admiration for Chen Can's intuition; even his elf-like clear eyes had the power to hide lies.He had no choice but to resort to the usual way of coaxing children, looking at each other with piercing eyes in an infinitely pampering gesture.

You know, as a psychiatrist, the last thing you are afraid of is making eye contact with people.

Chen Can squinted his eyes clearly, and said in a mysterious tone: "I can't tell, it's weird anyway. It's different from usual."

"If you stay at home for too long, it's really not a good thing. I've started to make up stories."

Luo Xiu sighed with a smile, trying his best to disguise his emotions and keep his face clean.This is hard for him to say, and it doesn't take much effort to do it.

Chen Can is a smart person with a crystal heart from the inside out.Even if he saw Luo Xiu's strangeness, it was hindered by his evasive avoidance; he also wisely chose to ignore it.

In fact, Luo Xiu hated playing this kind of "guess" game with Chen Can.It is a waste of energy and emotion, and the gain outweighs the gain.How much he wanted to ask Chen Can straight to the point, and listen to him tell him the clear truth.Who lied, he is not entangled, he is just afraid of the purpose behind the lie.

However, he did lack that courage, and was also afraid to face the consequences of the truth.He didn't want to stimulate Can, and he didn't want to hurt him himself; even if there was only a one-thousandth possibility, he didn't want Chan's already damaged heart to get worse again.He let his brain go, unconstrained "Goldbach conjecture"; the result of every argument, Can is the person who needs to be protected most.

This one never fails.

It's the past tense after all, isn't it?After all, what can you get?Apart from increasing troubles in vain, what can be changed...

Luo Xiu had persuaded himself in countless nights when he was sleepless.The positive meaning of thinking about it is that he really thinks he has let go of this matter frankly and doesn't think about it anymore.

No matter how you look at it, the nightmare experience can be listed as one of the "Top Ten Worst Things in Life", why bother to find out?It is simply the most wasteful behavior of brain cells that can be exchanged for cash at any time in the energy society!

After Luo Xiu detested himself for a while, he said to let go, and he let go.

On the surface, he was relieved.There are only two things I do on weekdays: one is to go to the clinic to make an appointment for treatment; the other is to hide in the study, look through materials, and do purely academic research.

In addition, I don't know when it started: once his line of sight touches Chen Can's arm, he always subconsciously avoids it.It was as if he was afraid of inadvertently triggering a secret switch in his brain-unleashing Keres, the unimaginable beast in the dark world.

On the contrary: It is hard to say whether it is intentional or unintentional.Since Luo Xiu left the bar that day, he came here for a drink every now and then between 2:3 and [-]:[-] pm when there were few customers.

Usually order a cup of hot drink, you can sit for two hours.Yixi didn't want to get involved with him too much, and didn't want to neglect him too clearly.Having lived with this person for so long before, Yixi didn't realize that he would be so keen on that half-bitter and half-sweet compound drink; moreover, it's still a girly drink.

His knowledge of Luo Xiu is refreshed every day; the speed of change is changing with each passing day, and sometimes he can't help questioning his IQ.Over time, Luo Xiu's patronage has become normalized: it's only a matter of Yixi recording his fingerprints, clocking in at work, and receiving his salary.

Probably because there is no previous entanglement, Fang Yixi can finally sit in front of him calmly, as an equal friend; tell all the past, from the beginning to the end, like a storytelling story. he listens.

Everything in the past: every point in time, every character in the scene, every place; Yixi still remembers it vividly, and speaks impeccably.It can be seen what a profound and terrifying experience this is.

From his detailed description, Luo Xiu roughly restored what happened in his mind.Every detail in the process is impeccable and lifelike.What he and Chan said, in general, were the same; except for the questionable role of the victim.

Both of them bear the scars of the past, and the details of the tragic memories are also exact.There is only one real victim.

Among them, someone lied.Using the method of resurrecting the dead, he told a perfect, unsubstantiated big lie.

Whoever told this lie was not just for sympathy.The sinister intentions and terrible intentions hidden behind the lies are the highlight.

On one point, Fang Yixi's thinking was astonishingly consistent with his: Chen Zhirong must be the one who killed the three bastards who did evil and wiped out harm for the people.With his many years of rich experience in handling cases and his calm mind, he subtly disguised three deliberate murders as accidents caused by natural disasters and man-made disasters.

It is reasonable to assume that what he did was to avenge his son; but it would be difficult to be convincing if he said that he was venting his anger on Fang Yixi's behalf.

Fang Yixi didn't want to understand this either.He can only guess whether something happened between those few people and Can, it may be unspeakable obscenity, or it may be verbal insult.In short, it caused great distress to Can and formed an irreversible negative impact.

After all, Chen Zhirong's behavior of being jealous and like an underground judge; to them personally, it is a just act of non-violence and non-cooperation.If Chen Zhirong hadn't endangered Fang Yixi's life several times later, he wouldn't have set a trap on this matter and forced him into a whirlpool of trouble.

To put it more vulgarly, this is: people are drifting in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed.

In terms of literature and art, that is: whoever sows the cause must reap the fruit.

Now, Chen Zhirong was able to comfort himself at any rate, and it was also a blessing to retire unscathed.As long as he lives a peaceful life with his duties, it will not be a problem to spend his old age peacefully.

Talking about so many dusty past events, and looking at the foreseeable future——Luo Xiu and Fang Yixi were delighted to find that they could also speak freely and be honest with each other calmly.Throwing away the old shackles full of hatred and revenge in the past, removing the entanglement of emotions and desires, the confrontation between the flesh and delusion; through the appearance to the essence, each other finds the settlement of the soul in each other.

Although Luo Xiu still had doubts about Yixi, even though the trust between them was still relatively fragile; at least, he saw a glimmer of hope.

Negative is positive.Perhaps, you and I are not born good people; but, it will not hinder our pursuit of kindness.

Such a fresh experience made their hearts feel a kind of warmth, comfort and detachment that they had never had before.

These two people only cared about indulging in the wonderful feeling of gaining a confidant after the relationship between their lovers ended.As everyone knows, Luo Xiu's strange whereabouts recently fell into Chen Can's eyes.

Chen Can had no intention of following Luo Xiu.It's just Luo Xiu's recent schedule, which is suspiciously regular.Although he still went out on time, he came home on time; the time was set like an alarm clock.Can, still see the inconspicuous abnormality from the subtle changes in his expression after returning home.

Can, I can clearly feel that Luo Xiu and him seem happy, content, and content with the status quo; in fact, they are drifting away and lackluster.

How many times Luo Xiu hesitated to speak, how many times his words flickered; even his tenderness, soft words and gentleness;Due to the stylized habits and obligations, I don't see any fierce love swaying; it's just a responsibility, just a burden.

Therefore, Can shrewdly realized that he and Luo Xiu were already at odds.

Consistent with his prediction: they will eventually go to the end of the mountain.

He hid in a corner of the shopping mall where people were coming and going, looking at the two people who were having a good time talking and describing themselves at ease: the lips were beautifully raised——in the cold smile, there was a resolute resoluteness... There is no sadness or joy , without resentment.

Yes, but when Yixi was hospitalized with pneumonia, Luo Xiu secretly visited him without telling him; and the oath he made to himself-Luo Xiu, you only have one chance.In the end, you ruined all my thoughts... The consequences may not be what you can imagine...

A week later, the joint investigation team of the Economic Investigation Brigade of the Public Security Bureau and the Anti-Corruption Bureau took Luo Xiu away from the apartment - under secret custody.

Luo Xiu disappeared without a trace.
