Demon in the world

After recovering from illness and going to work, Ah Jiu was surrounded by colleagues from the entire logistics department, and some younger ones deliberately imitated his lisp.

One of them joked: "It's really rare. People often say that dog teeth are pulled out at the age of eight. Why do you only start to replace teeth when you are an adult?"

Master Yu rolled up his sleeves and said, "There are many wonders in the world. My younger brother and sister took too much calcium when they were pregnant last year. The child was born with two front teeth. He couldn't breastfeed, so he had to pull out the pain."

Ah Jiu closed her mouth tightly and dared not interrupt, but after a while, she felt itchy at the root of her teeth, and she couldn't help wanting to lick them.

He can only chew on one side when eating a work meal. Although he is not used to it, it is much better than the previous two days, and the chopsticks stuck in the gap also gave him a strange sense of comfort.

Master Yu asked him to take out the chopsticks, and reminded him not to lick them anyway, otherwise crooked teeth would grow in the future.

So Ah Jiu was in a trance throughout the day, focusing all his attention on Xiaoya's gap.After finally getting off work, the service desk delivered a package, saying it was for Ah Jiu to sign for it.

Ah Jiu opened it curiously, and it turned out to be a box of exquisitely packaged oval iron biscuits, milky white in the shape of small bones, and smelled very faintly milky.

Pick one up and taste it, it's as hard as wood, and it's not delicious if you can't bite.

After thinking about it, he dialed Wen Renchu's number to confirm, but it took a long time for anyone to answer it.

Ah Jiu was very nervous when she heard Wen Renchu's voice, "Brother, I just received a bucket of biscuits, did you send them?"

"Ah."

"Thank you brother."

Wen Renchu ​​asked: "Is there anything else?"

Ah Jiu hurriedly said: "No, no, you should be busy."

Since it was a gift from my brother, it must be a good thing, right?Although it didn't suit my taste, Ah Jiu was still very happy.

After hanging up the phone, Ah Jiu heard a few sharp horns from behind him, turned his head and saw that it was a striking yellow sports car slowly following behind him.

Ah Jiu stopped, looked at the young man wearing sunglasses sitting inside, and barely recognized it after a while, "Brother Xiaoman?"

Lu Xiaoman lowered the windshield and said in a commanding tone, "Get in the car."

Ah Jiu hadn't seen him since the Spring Festival.

Now his image has changed a lot, he is thinner than before, his short blond hair has become a black cut, with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, a small blue diamond decoration in the middle of his left ear, and cool clothes on his body Black and white motorcycle leather jacket.

Thinking of Aunt Xue's reminder, Ah Jiu asked hesitantly, "Where are you taking me?"

The corner of Xiaoman's mouth slightly turned to one side, "Don't you know when you come up?"

Ah Jiu felt no malice from him, so she sat on it after thinking about it.

Xiaoman glanced at the tin bucket in his arms, "Why are you still eating this when you're so old?"

Ah Jiu said, "Brother gave it to me."

Xiaoman let out an oh and stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing, so Ah Jiu opened the box and handed it over, "Brother Xiaoman, do you want to eat?"

"I don't want to eat a child's teething stick."

teething stick?No wonder it was hard and had no taste. Ah Jiu pinched a piece and put it in his mouth. The small bone was just stuck in the gap where the tooth was missing. A little force was just enough to relieve the itching. It was neither soft nor hard and very comfortable.

Xiao Man asked, "What happened to your tooth?"

"It was pulled out, and a small one grew inside."

"The prince took you to pull it out?"

"Hmm." Ah Jiu looked out the window, "Where are we going?"

Xiaoman said lightly: "Go to my house."

Xiaoman lives at the foot of a remote mountain. The white villa looks very leisurely and comfortable, but there are no neighbors around, so it looks a bit lonely.

The car drove to the yard and stopped. After Xiaoman got down, he poured him a drink and went out with the phone.

Ah Jiu just looked at the furnishings in the room, and didn't pay attention to what he said.

The room is empty, all the windows are sealed, the walls are painted dark blue, and various fish and coral groups are painted on the ceiling. When people look up at the top, it seems that the whole body is immersed in the deep sea. There is a beautiful and hopeless shock.

While Ah Jiu was observing with great interest, Xiao Man came back. After taking off his sunglasses, his face was unhealthy white, and there was a faint blue color around his eyes, as if he hadn't rested for a long time.

"Brother Xiaoman is really beautiful here." Ah Jiu said sincerely.

Xiao Man sat down beside him, looked at Ah Jiu and said calmly, "Really."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to touch his face, leaned over, and the tips of their noses were almost touching.

His warm breath blew over, Ah Jiu shrank his neck subconsciously, and said uncomfortably: "Brother Xiaoman..."

"I quite like you," Xiaoman stroked lightly with his fingertips on the contours of his ears, "but you appeared at the wrong time and place."

Ah Jiu blushed and murmured, "I don't understand what you mean."

Xiao Man smiled coldly, "Aunt Xue should have reminded you, right?"

"Ok?"

"Say I'm a lunatic, and you're not allowed to approach me...is there?"

Ah Jiu's black and white eyes were full of persistence, "Brother Xiaoman is a good person."

Xiaoman looked at him mockingly, "Good man? You are so innocent and cute...do you know what I'm thinking now?"

Seeing Ah Jiu shaking his head hesitantly, the smile on his face gradually deepened, he wrapped his arms around his neck tightly, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, you will know soon."

An hour later, Wen Renchu ​​came to Xiaoman's residence, and he was sitting on the sofa alone smoking a cigarette.

Hearing the all-too-familiar footsteps, Xiaoman's face was filled with unconcealable excitement.

Wen Renchu ​​walked up to him and stopped, "Where are the others?"

Xiaoman's smile gradually faded, "If it wasn't for him today, you wouldn't have come to see me, would you?"

Wen Renchu ​​frowned and looked at him, "I asked you where he is?"

Xiao Man raised his lips, "We haven't seen each other for 98 days, why don't you ask me if I'm doing well?"

Wen Renchu ​​said to the assistant who was following him: "Xu Nan, please go find me."

Xiaoman smiled lazily: "You can't find it, don't waste your time."

Facing his provocation, Wen Renchu's face was as dark as water, never showing the expected tension and anger.

Not long after, Xu Nan came back and shook his head, "I've searched every corner, nothing."

"Where's the refrigerator?" Xiaoman said casually, "Maybe I dismembered people and hid them in it..."

Xu Nan's complexion changed drastically, and he ran to the kitchen dripping with cold sweat, hesitantly opened the refrigerator, and let out a long sigh of relief to the empty interior.

How could a living person be hidden and completely lost?Could it be that Lu Xiaoman is lying?

Wen Renchu ​​raised his hand to stop his speculation, "Needless to say, wait for me outside."

When there were only the two of them left in the living room, Xiao Man stood up, put his arms around his waist from behind, and rubbed his face greedily on his back.

"Ah Chu, I miss you so much... After so many days, if you don't come to see me, I can hardly survive."

"So you use this method to coerce me to come?"

"No, it's not a threat... I just want to see you, there is no other way."

Wen Renchu ​​opened his fingers, "You have seen it now, you can return him to me."

Xiaoman was shocked and said: "Return it to you? Why do you use repayment? No, he is not yours, so you don't have anything to do with it, right? As long as you nod, I will let Ah Jiu go..."

"No," Wen Renchu's voice pierced his heart like a blade of ice, "In my heart, he is much more important than you."

Xiaoman was shaken by this cruel fact, and fell into the sofa in a daze, deceiving himself: "No, it's impossible, it's absolutely impossible."

Wenren Chuyu said impatiently: "One last time, hand over Ah Jiu."

Xiaoman smiled darkly, "He is no longer in this world, and you will never find him again. Now in this world... I am the most important person in your heart."

Wen Renchu ​​tore off his tie, and began to search every corner of the room seriously. He knocked on the table, cabinet, even the walls and the floor, but found nothing.

Time passed silently, Xu Nan couldn't help but come back from the outside to confirm, "Master, could it be..."

Wen Renchu ​​insisted: "No, he must be here, I can feel it."

Seeing Xiaoman playing with the pillow as if nothing had happened, Xu Nan's head was covered with cold sweat. He suggested to ask the police to help, but Wenrenchu ​​refused.

When it was eight o'clock in the evening, the sky was completely dark, and the two of them still didn't find anything.

How could this small villa hide a person so well?But since Wen Renchu ​​was sure that he was there, he must be there.Seeing Lu Xiaoman's seemingly innocent appearance, Xu Nan couldn't bear it anymore and rushed to him, grabbed his collar, "Tell me, where is he hiding?!"

Xiaoman blinked innocently, "Who? I don't know."

Xu Nan punched his delicate facial features, "Say it?"

Xiaoman wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced a smile, "I really don't know."

Xu Nan took out a gun and pointed it at his forehead, "This is the last chance, do you want to say it or not?"

As Wen Renchu's confidant, he clearly knew how troublesome and perverted this lunatic was.

Wen Renchu ​​on the side seemed to be lost in meditation without any disturbance. Lu Xiaoman, who was in a trance, was fascinated by his handsome and steady profile, and couldn't help saying his name, "Ah Chu..."

When Xu Nan was about to pull the trigger, Wen Renchu ​​suddenly opened his eyes and said coldly, "I already know where he is."

Xiaoman shouted loudly, "No, it's impossible!"

Xu Nan put down his pistol in surprise, and followed Wenren Chu to the swimming pool in front of the villa.

The water inside is very clear, and the light blue bottom of the pool becomes clearer when the lights are turned on.

Wen Renchu ​​had already started to take off his coat, Xu Nan hurriedly said: "Master, let me go down."

"I'll do it myself, you take care of Lu Xiaoman here." Wen Renchu ​​handed him the clothes, and jumped into the water like a vigorous flying fish.

Xu Nan firmly locked Xiao Man who rushed out, "Warning you not to move, I don't know how to be sympathetic!"

Wen Renchu ​​dived into the bottom of the pool, and began to grope along the surrounding cobblestone walls with both hands, as if looking for some mechanism.

Five minutes later, he pushed down a red pebble, and the two seamless stone slabs in the center of the pool slowly slid away, revealing a one-meter-wide concave square pool. A mask was worn on his face, and an oxygen-supplied respirator was stuck in his mouth.

Wenren Chuyou went over, and carried him out in twos and threes.

After taking off Ah Jiu's mask, he looked at him with dark eyes, and his skin was blistered and white, and he could still smile, "I knew that brother would definitely come to save me."

Compared to his optimism, Wen Renchu ​​was much more ruthless. Xu Nan looked admiring, while Xiao Man looked ashamed.

"Take him to the car first, I still have things to deal with."

Xu Nan carefully took Ah Jiu from Wen Renchu, wrapped him in a blanket and put him in the car.

Ah Jiu lay on the car window and looked into the villa. Xu Nan observed him for a while, and asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of?"

"You were almost...killed by someone." Xu Nan showed a choked expression. Seeing that Ah Jiu was still confused, he couldn't help touching his forehead, "I don't know whether to say you are lucky or lucky. Fortunately, the one who came today is Young master, otherwise you are definitely doomed. Lu Xiaoman is really perverted to hide people in the swimming pool."

Under Wen Renchu's gaze, Xiaoman took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, lit it several times with trembling hands but failed.

He pinched down the cigarette a little annoyed, and explained incoherently, "I, I didn't intend to kill him... I just wanted to meet you, that's all."

Wen Renchu's eyes showed a little sarcasm, and his black pupils were faintly cold and aloof and pale blue, "I know, otherwise, do you think you can still sit here now?"

"Ah Chu..."

"Lv Xiaoman, I'm not your property, don't bring your delusions into real life. I don't love you now, and I can't love you in the future. The reason has been answered before, because I don't have that kind of thing at all. .I don't want to pursue today's matter any further, but I will never let it go. Please leave this house before noon tomorrow, and I will have someone come to check and accept it on time. "

Xiaoman watched his cold back go away in a daze, and asked loudly: "Since you don't love me, why did you save me back then? You still have to tolerate me in every possible way?"

Wenren Chutou didn't reply, "I don't regret anything in my life, except for this one."

Because if you don't love, you can easily trample on other people's feelings. Those exhausting care and entanglements, in the eyes of the parties, are all superfluous warts.

If given a choice, the Lu Xiaoman of eight years ago would never have appeared in that nightclub, but... there is no if.

Darkness and despair surrounded from all directions, slowly swallowing up the room and all the people in it.

There was a faint fragrance in the car, and when Ah Jiu squinted her eyes and was about to fall asleep comfortably, Wen Renchu ​​sat in with a gust of cold wind.

Ah Jiu immediately leaned over, "Brother... can you take me back to the dormitory first, I have to go to work tomorrow."

Wen Renchu ​​closed his eyes and said nothing, Xu Nan took a sneak peek through the rearview mirror and felt a chill running down his back.

I have followed Wen Renchu ​​for five years, and I am very familiar with his mood swings. Although there is no obvious anger on his face, it can be seen from the tight lip line that his mood must be extremely bad.

But there are some people in the world who don't know how to live or die, and even use their hands to pull his arm, "Brother..."
