Rebirth of the Uncrowned King

stop, stop!

I watched Ren Min walking towards me step by step, the knife in his hand reflected a dazzling silver light.I had no way to retreat. There was a solid wall behind me. My hands and feet were handcuffed at some point, and my hands were behind my back. My shoulders were so stiff that they hurt.No matter how much I twist my body, there is no way to get a little loose room.

He had come up to me with a mixture of pity and sarcasm on his face.Seeing him raise his hand and point the knife point straight at me, I cried loudly: "No, please, don't kill me! I don't want to die!"

But he turned a deaf ear to it, and without even the slightest hesitation, he just tied the hand holding the knife.At that moment, I didn't know where the strength came from, but I raised my feet in a daze, and kicked the knife in his hand away in an extremely twisted posture.

so close!Panting heavily, I glanced at the knife that had been kicked far away, then looked at Ren Min again, and waited for his next move vigilantly—if he went to pick up the knife, he would leave me a certain distance, This may be my last chance.

However, Ren Min didn't take a step away, he just raised the corners of his mouth and smiled brightly at me, while putting his right hand into the jacket, after a while, he took out a black thing, and pointed it at me...

That's a gun.

I sat up abruptly, and seeing the quiet and dark environment around me, I realized that I was just having a terrible dream.

Hehe, I couldn't help laughing when I calmed down.

No matter how I pretend to be in front of people, I can't lie to myself when I'm alone. My psychology has reached its limit. If this continues, I will go crazy sooner or later.

No more sleepiness, I got out of bed, walked to the window and opened it, letting the cool night wind blow on my face.This place has always been quiet, but now it adds a bit of deep atmosphere. There are a few dim yellow lights in the small garden downstairs. Occasionally, two bodyguards pass by, and the black shadows are drawn very thinly. long.

I leaned on the window sill and just watched quietly, one, two, three... The bodyguards had already passed by me several times, and my legs felt a little sore, so I wanted to drag a chair to sit and watch.

After turning around, I realized that my body was a little disobedient, my whole body was stiff enough, and my brain became dizzy for a while. I shook my body and reached out to hold the wall.

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and two tall black figures rushed towards me at an extremely fast speed.Before I could react, I was already pushed to the ground.

Suddenly, the chandelier on the ceiling was turned on. I lay on the ground and looked towards the switch, only to see Ren Min crossing his arms and looking down at me condescendingly.

"Let me go." I struggled to move my tightly held arm, and said to the two bodyguards on the left and right, "What are you doing?" I don't like being looked at so high, especially By Ren Min.

"Let him get up." Ren Min ordered softly, and the bodyguard let go after leaving.I struggled to stand up and asked Ren Min inexplicably, "You broke into my room all of a sudden, why are you doing this?"

Ren Min froze for a moment, showing a thoughtful expression, he was silent for a while, then turned and left the room, leaving only two words: "Let's go."

Two bodyguards followed him and walked out slowly, and I heard one of them muttering, "I thought he was going to commit suicide, but it turned out to be an oolong." Then, there was the sound of the door being closed.

suicide?I thought back to the scene just now, maybe someone was on the monitor and saw me standing in front of the window for a long time, thinking I was going to jump off the building.In addition, I shook it twice, and it seemed that I really wanted to commit suicide.

It seems that I have caused trouble for them... I laughed at myself, gave up the idea of ​​continuing to sit in front of the window in a daze, got under the quilt again, and opened my eyes to look at the gorgeous and bright crystal chandelier above my head.

In this way, sleepless all night until dawn.

The next day, I was able to go to work in good spirits. I really admired myself.

Opening the mailbox, the first unread email was sent by my queen informant, Xiaotao.At the beginning of his article, he used several hundred words to express his joy at my "coming out" again, and then changed the subject, saying that there are still several informant fees for reports, which he has not received yet.

He is really a money fanatic... I quickly sent an email to the financial department, asking them to send money to Xiao Tao as soon as possible, and then went to the director, intending to have a good talk with him.

Recently, I especially like work, and I especially like the kind of business trips, or those who have to stay in a remote and desolate place from morning till night.In short, I like all the jobs that allow me to return to Ren Min's house later.

But I don’t know what’s wrong, maybe Ren Min told them, the newspaper office only arranges me to pick up insignificant things all day long, and the manuscript can be delivered at two or three in the afternoon when I go out in the morning, so that I can leave work on time.There were even one or two times when I was glued to the chair and didn't want to leave after get off work time, and the director would actually come over and urge me to leave work...

"Director, I'm still young, and I still have some aggressiveness in my career. I don't think the news I'm running is not good, but I haven't run a big article for a long time, and I feel very itchy. Do you have any news on hand? What can be done on special topics? I want to do both newsletters and in-depth reports.”

It would be best if I could be so busy that I would eat three meals a day outside. Once I got back to Ren Min’s villa, I would be so tired that I could fall asleep immediately; go out.

The director stared into my eyes for a while, sighed slightly, and waved his hand: "Go find it yourself, report to me if you find any clues, and I will approve."

"Thank you, Director!" I stood up and bowed deeply to him. I knew that this was already the biggest concession he could make.

As soon as I got back to my desk, Xiao Tao's call came.

For the first time, the efficiency of the Finance Department was high. Not long after my email was forwarded, they contacted Xiaotao.With the money in the account, Xiaotao was of course in a good mood, and clamored that he had an important report to report to me.

"What's the matter this time?" I clamped the microphone between my neck and shoulders, and opened a packet of biscuits.

"Do you still remember the PX project that caused a lot of trouble in the past two years? I heard that it is in a place on the outskirts of our city, and this project will also be launched! Now the relocation has begun, and this time they are very low-key. Nobody knows."

Hearing Xiao Tao's first two words, my hands were already clenched, and the biscuit was crushed into pieces.

This project, this was the project back then, which caused me... But, why did it start so early? I remember that in the last life, it would take more than half a year before Xiaotao would call me. Tell me about this project.

Is it because the world has changed, so it is ahead of schedule?But why, do I have such a strong sense of ominousness in my heart?
