Crossflow

At the end of the meeting, the hour hand has crossed the number "11" on the dial and started to move towards "12".

Sui Yuesheng turned off the computer, loosened his tie, stretched his neck again, picked up the snack packaging bags scattered on the table, and threw them all into the trash can.

Today's work is over early, so I can go back to my room and take a shower before going to bed.He went through the work schedule in his mind, thinking about it like this.

Immediately afterwards, the mobile phone he placed on the desk sang cheerfully, Sui Yuesheng glanced at it, and saw the caller with three words written brightly - Jiang Jingyun.

He put on the Bluetooth headset, reached out and pressed the answer button: "Hello?"

"Didn't disturb your rest?" Jiang Jingyun's voice was full of smiles.

"No, just finished the meeting." Sui Yuesheng rubbed his sore and swollen temple with one hand, closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair to rest his mind, "It's so late, why didn't senior brother rest?"

"How can the people's servants get off work before twelve o'clock." Jiang Jingyun sneered, did not continue to exchange pleasantries with him, and returned to the subject, "I've finished my work."

"Ok?"

Jiang Jingyun completed the words: "I asked the secretary to create a new identity for the mother and child. He called me back just now and said that he had already sent him abroad. He saw the plane boarding with his own eyes, and the school over there has also been closed. arranged."

The mother and son came forward to sue the freight company, which aroused great repercussions in the society, and at the same time, it would inevitably expose their existence to the red gang again.

After this battle, they found that they were not as easy to control as the Red Gang as he imagined. In order to avoid being involved, the best choice was to kill people to silence them and wipe out the roots.

Sui Yuesheng has been worried that they will die because of this incident, and he has promised them that they will give them a new life after the incident is over.Now that Jiang Jingyun has given them a new identity and sent them abroad, no matter how long the red helpers are, they will not be able to reach the Western Continent.

A big stone in Sui Yuesheng's heart fell to the ground, and he hurriedly said: "Brother, thank you for your hard work, if I have a chance in two days, I will treat you to dinner."

"It's really not urgent. Even if you don't talk to me about life-threatening matters, as long as I can help, I can help." Jiang Jingyun was a little helpless, "As for the case... This is mutual benefit, I will help You solved the freight company, and my public support rate has skyrocketed after the incident is over, not to mention the 'senator's mailbox', which was originally written by you."

"After so many years, you finally found me for a favor. I thought it was time to repay the favor, but now it's good. The favor you owe is like a snowball, and it's getting bigger and bigger."

Jiang Jingyun made a joke, Sui Yuesheng laughed twice, and the two exchanged some pleasantries, he suddenly said seriously: "But I really have something to do recently, I need your help."

His voice was serious, and Jiang Jingyun on the other end of the phone also put away the smile on his face, slowly sat up straight in the office, and said in a deep voice, "Say it."

"This matter is over, and it's the turn of the other side." Although Sui Yuesheng didn't say it clearly, the two of them knew the person behind him, "Tao Fengche called me suddenly two days ago. After that phone call, my people came over and said..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes covered by his slender eyelashes were cold, and he paused every word: "Some people finally couldn't bear the loneliness, and quietly emerged."

"So fast?" Jiang Jingyun was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously asked back, and then suddenly realized something, "Do you have someone to suspect?!"

"Probably, but I'm not sure yet." Sui Yuesheng lowered his eyes, and slowly turned the emerald wrench on his right thumb.Under the illumination of the light, the fingers look extraordinarily transparent.

Before Tao Zhixing died in a car accident, he already had a suspect and was ready to take action.During the daytime on May 24th, he took off his finger in advance, handed over the will to Lawyer Li, and went to the notary office together for notarization.Afterwards, he notified Sui Yuesheng before he went to visit the grave, and if he had an accident, he would rush back to Jingpu as soon as possible to inherit the Tao family.

Tao Zhixing had planned meticulously, but in the end it was still a step too late.

Before he could say the name of the suspect, he died unexpectedly, and what Sui Yuesheng faced after returning to China was simply a fog.

Fortunately, after more than a month, the fog that covered people's eyes and made people invisible finally showed some signs of dissipating.

Could it be that person?Sui Yuesheng thought about it slowly, and turned the wrench around again.

···

At 11:30, Tao Fengche finished his day of study and exercise. When he was packing his schoolbag after washing up, he suddenly remembered something.

When Sui Yuesheng came to check his homework tonight, although Tao Fengche hadn't finished all the homework, he had already written the items that needed to be signed and brought them to him for signature, but now he saw that he had missed a notice.

Tomorrow is the June exam. In order to prevent students from cheating during the exam, the school will send out an exam notice before each exam, asking parents to sign.

Although Tao Fengche felt that this was a useless formalism, the few players on the basketball team said that it was quite useful, at least every time he did a cheat sheet before the exam, he would be terrified for fear that his parents would find out.

When Sui Yuesheng came over to check his homework just now, he forgot to give this to him.

Sui Yuesheng is busy with work, even if the two of them live in the same house now, they may not meet each other tomorrow morning... Tao Fengche thought about it, and finally decided to go to the study to find him with a notice and a pen .

But when Tao Fengche went upstairs and pushed open the door of the study, it was empty inside, no one was there.

Where did this go?Can a living person be born with the moon and disappear at home?This house will not eat people.

Tao Fengche was a little dazed, he walked back to the second floor along the stairs, but suddenly heard a faint movement in the guest room—since Sui Yuesheng came to Tao's house ten years ago, it had always been his room.

Is this going back to the room after work?

Tao Feng plucked up the courage to knock on the door, but no one opened after waiting for a long time.

If we wait any longer, Sui Yuesheng will fall asleep... According to Tao Fengche's understanding of him, this person is very active in sleeping after finishing his work, and when he is woken up, he still has an astonishing aura of getting up.

Tao Fengche didn't understand when he was a child, and he often went to trouble Sui Yuesheng in the morning, asking him to get up to eat with him and then go to class together.

However, after deliberating for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to push the door open.

After all, the guest room is a guest room, and the layout is not quite the same as the one Tao Fengche lived in. There is no supporting study room, and the bedroom is directly opened when the door is opened, and the cloakroom and bathroom are next to the bedroom.

The bedroom at this time was the same as the study on the third floor, there was no one in it, only the bathroom door was closed tightly, and there was the sound of dripping water from inside.

——Sui Yuesheng is taking a bath.

After Tao Fengche came to his senses, his whole face turned red, like a red-hot iron rod.

He was a little embarrassed, and always felt like he had broken some secret, so he wanted to go out on a conditioned reflex.But he thought about it again, brother is brother after all, the two of them slept in the same bed more than once ten years ago, and now they are just taking a shower through the door, there is no need to be so bewildered.

Take it easy, take it easy...it's not right if you're too nervous, what's wrong with brother closing the door and taking a shower?It's not washing with the door open!Tao Fengche desperately brainwashed himself.

After a while, Tao Fengche's heartbeat finally stabilized, and the temperature of his face dropped a lot. He held the notice and pen tightly in his hand, and looked around the room curiously and apprehensively.

When Sui Yuesheng just disappeared, he couldn't find Sui Yuesheng anywhere, asked Xu Song and Tao Zhixing, but didn't get an accurate answer, so he started running to Sui Yuesheng's room from time to time.

It was as if Sui Yuesheng would suddenly appear one day, lean on the bed and read a book as usual, and when he saw him come in, he smiled and said "Xiao Che".

The general furnishings in the room are still the same as ten years ago, but after Sui Yuesheng moved in again, the empty room obviously became more popular.

Although the pheromones born with the moon had completely disappeared, Tao Fengche always felt that the room at this moment was full of the smell of his brother.

He suddenly missed the sudden smell of lychees, so sweet and greasy that water dripped out, engraved with Sui Yuesheng's name, it was his unique taste.

Even Tao Fengche only smelled it once, but every time he dreamed it at midnight...

Would Jiang Jingyun have heard of it?

He suddenly appeared for such a year, and then his heart felt sore, like eating a large lemon with the peel in empty mouth, it was sour and bitter, and the irritation made people's facial features tightly wrinkled together.

No, don't think too much about it.He warned himself so, and turned his eyes to the room he was familiar with once again.

etc.Tao Fengche keenly realized something was wrong.

There seems to be something extra on the bedside table.He wanted to figure it out out of nowhere, and tiptoed over to take a look, only to find a few medicine bottles and a wooden photo frame turned upside down.

He carefully straightened the photo frame. The photo inside seemed to be quite old, and the edges were slightly yellowed. In the photo was a strange old lady leaning on the bed, with gray hair and a loving expression.

Her facial features are somewhat similar to Sui Yuesheng's, but those blue eyes are darker than Sui Yuesheng's, like a deep lake.

And she looked... bad.

Probably Sui Yuesheng's grandma?

Tao Fengche speculated, and instead of looking closely, he turned his attention to those medicine bottles.

They are all opaque packages, and the contents inside cannot be seen. The medicine bottle closest to him is written in unfamiliar English. The bold and enlarged line is probably the name?

Tao Fengche was really curious. He was about to take out his mobile phone to search for what was written on it, when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"What are you doing in here?"

Tao Fengche hastily turned his head.Sui Yuesheng's hair was still wet, wrapped in a set of pure white bathrobes, the exposed half of the calf was shiny white, and the ankles were well-defined, so slender that they could be grasped by one hand.

He had just taken a shower, and his whole body was still covered with steam, and he was staring at him with a frown.

Only then did Tao Fengche react belatedly... the sound of water in the bathroom had stopped for quite a while.
