He has never had anything to do with Sui Yuesheng, it was the same ten years ago, and it will be the same ten years later.

At the end of the summer vacation, Jing Ning took Tao Fengche into his private research room, where he described the harmfulness of artificial pheromones to Tao Fengche.

Jing Ning spoke harshly, describing it as Pandora's magic box, saying that it should never appear in this world. Tao Fengche listened attentively, but in fact he didn't quite understand it.

When he first learned about the existence of artificial pheromones, Tao Fengche even had a somewhat childish thought - if human beings could freely choose their own second gender, wouldn't everyone be happy?

Before that, he had just learned about the tragic events that happened to Sui Yuesheng, and now that technology is advanced, as long as he is connected to the Internet, he will be in a sea of ​​information. Tao Fengche has seen too much sexism, and he has also seen Too much damage done by having a second gender.

Although the artificial pheromone is just a disguise and cannot really change the second gender of the human body, it can make the beta after the injection become alpha or omega in the eyes of others, which is already stealing the day.

Tao Fengche didn't understand it at first, he thought it was just self-deception, he didn't understand why those injectors were willing to pay such a high price for a lie, even if they could deceive others, could they still deceive themselves?But then he calmed down and thought about it, and he could understand it.

——In life, there are too many pains and too many unavoidable things. After telling a lie too many times, the liar gradually believes it, and brings the people around him together to live a life of lies In a woven world.

In the eyes of bystanders, living like this may be too absurd, but in some things, people need to lie to themselves in order to continue to grit their teeth and live.

The more sober people are, the more painful they are, and it is human nature to avoid pain.

The choice made by the individual under the manipulation of self-will, bystanders will never have the right to criticize - age, gender, living conditions, and encounters are different, everyone is an independent individual, no matter how hard you try, the rest Some people are also unable to achieve empathy and empathy in the true sense.

Tao Fengche sympathized with these betas who chose to inject artificial pheromones, and wanted to try to respect their choices, just like Zhao Jiayang and Tao Zhixing respected Chu Yin's choices back then.

...But the artificial pheromone finally killed Chu Yin. In a sense, it also took away part of Zhao Jiayang's life.

So Tao Fengche could also understand the Tao family's move to close the production line and collect and destroy all the artificial pheromones in the market.

Two completely different attitudes and emotions mixed together, and a fierce tug-of-war unfolded in Tao Fengche's mind. He was unwilling to choose a side between the two, and he didn't know how to choose. In his heart, if artificial pheromones were restarted, he would actually be a little happy to see it happen.

But if things are really as he expected, the mastermind behind Liu Tianlei is Sui Yuesheng, but he has been kept in the dark and played like a monkey...

Apart from being angry, Tao Fengche was still at a loss - he didn't know how to face Sui Yuesheng.

Ten years ago, Sui Yuesheng came to Tao's house. At that time, Zhao Jiayang took Chu Yinfei to the warm southern hemisphere to recuperate according to the usual practice. Friendship and the death of a friend, thus choosing to close the line.

But Tao Zhixing was the one who rescued Sui Yuesheng from the warehouse, brought him to Tao's house, and gave him a new life.

The order to close the production line was also given by Tao Zhixing.

And after Tao Zhixing passed away, Sui Yuesheng took over Tao's full management in less than four months, and he had already left behind his previous instructions, and the speed of this change of course was really too fast.

What's more, Tao Fengche had been to that production base before, and from the bodyguard's description, he roughly understood the situation of that "Chinese medicine factory". A very mature production line had been formed there, and it only took four months. This level of completeness is difficult.

...Maybe, before Tao Zhixing was alive, Sui Yuesheng had already made arrangements in secret, obediently obediently and secretly contravened, or maybe, even Tao Zhixing's death could not be separated from him, otherwise, otherwise, how could he come back so quickly?

After all... he's always been good at deceiving people, hasn't he?

The old man is not omnipotent, maybe he is also deceived sometimes...?

Tao Fengche blinked blankly, and subconsciously squeezed the pen tightly in his hand, so hard that even his knuckles turned white.

After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest, and the wandering consciousness returned to his body. He woke up from the dazed state, and only then did he realize that there was a breath stuck in his neck—the part just now For a while, he even forgot to breathe.

... No, I can't think about it anymore.

Tao Fengche tried to restore the rhythm of his breathing, and then threw the gel pen in his hand aside. The paper that was scratched like a heavenly book was also wrinkled by him during the time when his soul was out of his body. , he patiently smoothed them slowly, and then heaved a long sigh.

His current thinking has entered a dead end, and there is an increasingly extreme trend. So far, there is no evidence to prove that Tao Zhixing's death is related to Sui Yuesheng.

As for artificial pheromones... No matter what, since Wang Yuan hasn't found out the name of the payee, no matter how suspicious Sui Yuesheng is, he can't just convict him so hastily.

Even in court, the defendant still has the right to appeal.

Tao Fengche made a decision, took the paper in his hand, found a lighter from the corner of the desk, and walked into the bathroom.He squatted down next to the toilet, lit the paper with a lighter, watched the flames devour the writing on it, and then pressed the flush button, flushing the ashes into the sewer.

Then, he opened the window of the toilet and let the rustling autumn wind blow in, sweeping away the residual smell in the bathroom.

After cleaning up the scene, Tao Fengche took off his bathrobe and put on pajamas, raised his hand and pressed the summons.

Within 5 minutes, Xu Song opened the door: "Master."

Tao Fengche had already returned to the desk, and a half-read reasoning book was spread out on the desk. Hearing Xu Song's entry, he said without raising his head, "Uncle Xu, please help me get a new mobile phone." Come up."

Under Xu Song's puzzled eyes, he explained calmly: "Just now when I was taking a shower, I put my mobile phone on the shelf to listen to music, but I accidentally dropped it and broke the screen."

This is a very reasonable reason, and the mobile phone with a broken screen into a spider web on the edge of the desk also proves that his words are true. Xu Song had no intention at all. He nodded and closed the door, and put a brand new packing box on the On Tao Fengche's desk.

——At present, mobile phones are already an indispensable tool, and there are always various accidents in life, which will inevitably cause damage to mobile phones. Tao’s storage room has several latest mobile phones all year round. in case for need.

Tao Fengche glanced over it, and didn't pick it up, but raised his head to look at Xu Song, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "There is no positioning device inside, right?"

"No." Xu Song lowered his head, with a very respectful attitude, "Master, you don't like this, it's not installed on your mobile phone."

Tao Fengche twitched the corners of his mouth, and he didn't say yes or no. He just opened the packing box and checked the phone from the beginning to the end in front of Xu Song. After confirming that there was no positioning device and software, he said " Uh" sounded.

He nodded slightly, raised his hand and waved again, motioning Xu Song to back down.

The door was carefully closed by Xu Song, and the room returned to silence. Tao Fengche changed the calling card into the new phone, transferred the data from the old phone, and finally restored it to factory settings.

He stared at the retired mobile phone for a while, and wanted to throw it directly into the trash can and inform the servants to destroy it, but in the end he suddenly changed his mind, opened a certain drawer of the desk, and hid it in the deepest place.

...Who knows if there will be any new technology to restore data, it is safest to keep it.

He closed the drawer door, packed his schoolbag and returned to the bedroom, opened the curtains and looked out.

The dark clouds all over the sky covered the stars and the crescent moon in the sky. After losing the moonlight, the courtyard was completely lit by street lamps, so it inevitably looked a little dark, but there were not more bodyguards standing guard and patrolling than yesterday. At least, Tao Fengche narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate, but he didn't see the familiar Karlmann? King.

Even though he knew this earlier, he still felt bored for a while, unconsciously licked his chapped lips, and then used his teeth to tear off a piece of dead skin on his lips.The blood scrambling to overflow from the damaged place also called Tao Fengche's attention.

He licked the wound on his lip indifferently, rolled the blood into his mouth with the tip of his tongue, then closed the curtains and turned on the bed.

A night without dreams.

Early the next morning, as expected, Tao Fengche did not see Sui Yuesheng at the dining table. He pursed his lips imperceptibly, forcing himself to finish his breakfast. When he stood up and was about to go out, he found that Sui Yuesheng was following behind him. Three shadows.

——The three bodyguards standing in the restaurant moved with him.

He turned his head slightly, glanced at them, and lowered his face: "What? Now you even follow me to school?"

The leader lowered his head, with an neither humble nor overbearing attitude: "This is an extraordinary period, please understand, young master."

"Suiyuesheng again?" Tao Fengche raised his eyebrows slightly.

For a long time, he no longer used the affectionate title of "brother" as a reference, but chose to call him by his first name. If Xu Song hadn't set off for the winery early in the morning, he would definitely wink with the bodyguards right now. A few words of turnaround.

It's a pity that Xu Song was not there, and these bodyguards hadn't seen how Tao Fengche and Yuesheng got along with each other, so they didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, they just stood there with embarrassment and didn't answer.

This is the default.

"The driver is here, isn't that enough?" Tao Fengche's voice could not hear any emotion, "I just go to school."

"...Master." The bodyguard didn't say much, and lowered his head even lower.

Tao Fengche stared at them, pursed his lips, and narrowed his eyes.

The surrounding air pressure was so low that it seemed to become a substance, pressing heavily on everyone's heart. After a long time, Tao Fengche suddenly sneered.

"Okay, just follow if you want to."

He walked out of the restaurant first.

From this moment on, Tao Fengche didn't say a word, but everyone present could feel the anger contained in this silence, it was so strong that it took everyone's breath and tongue away.

No one dared to breathe loudly, and no one dared to answer his words. The Maybach maintained a chilling silence the whole time, and it just drove all the way to the school.
