[Full-time master] mottled
Chapter 12 Surrender
Tempered, at the moment, he kept a distance of about one meter from his guide.Jiang Botao smiled helplessly, and while secretly tugging at the corner of his clothes, he was talking to Ma Jianlin: "Captain Ma, 'Qiu Lan' has confessed additional details of the case, when will you go to re-investigate the scene? Take the two of us?"
"Well... about two days." Ma Jianlin said, "When the trace team withdraws from the Yan Shaoli case, we can go to re-investigate. I will notify you when the time comes."
"Thank you, Captain Ma." Jiang Botao exchanged some polite words with Ma Jianlin, ending today's "one-day tour of the police department".
At that time, it was already past the meal time, Jiang Botao, who was so hungry, dragged his children who were still throwing tantrums to find a random restaurant, and prepared to deal with the meal.Although Zhou Zekai was losing his temper, he also understood that Jiang Botao was thinking about his physical condition. After such a long time, half of his anger was already gone, and the other party kept putting his favorite sweet and sour short ribs into his bowl with a smile. , the other half of the gas is naturally self-defeating.
"Are you angry?" Jiang Botao threw the last piece of sweet and sour ribs into Zhou Zekai's bowl, while tilting his head and looking at him cautiously.
Even though his anger had subsided, the wicked Zhou Zekai still replied, "I'm angry."
Seeing that Zhou Zekai was teasing him, Jiang Botao deliberately drooped his brows, and prolonged his tone of voice, both distressed and half teasing: "Oh, what should I do if my child loses his temper, wait online, hurry up."
"Thank you for the invitation." Zhou Zekai replied solemnly, "A kiss will be fine."
Facts have proved that Zhou Zekai's "kiss" is not just a simple "kiss".
——Damn, false answer, report.
Wrapped in the duvet, Jiang Botao lay prone on the pillow, rubbing his lower back with one hand, and brushing his phone with the other, thinking this angrily.
Maybe it's because they haven't been close for a long time, or maybe it's because the two of them had been at the gate of hell not long ago, and when they got close, they were very affectionate and pity. They all turned into a trickle at each other's fingertips.The flowing water is full of love and fire, instigating the idiot blinded by love to give up everything and entangle with the person in front of him, so charming and happy, until even the soul melts together.
At the beginning, it was indeed a hearty and romantic affair, until the round of torture was over, and Zhou Zekai's passionate panting in Jiang Botao's ear not only failed to calm down, but intensified, the latter slowly Suddenly felt something was wrong: This is not a normal emotion, Zhou Zekai is simply induced to bond fever!
Just as Jiang Botao opened his mouth, before he could say anything, Zhou Zekai's scorching kiss was covered again. Jiang Botao, who was already a little dizzy because of the aftertaste of the orgasm, was immediately softened by the kiss, and he didn't resist at all. There was no room for him, so he was pushed on the bed by Zhou Zekai as a matter of course.
Zhou Zekai, who fell into the frenzy of bonding, was driven by instinct, and his strikes were not serious at first, and even carried two murderous ruthlessness in his final movements.Jiang Botao, who was almost suffocated in the parade, knew well that if Zhou Zekai hadn't been able to survive such a toss, if he hadn't been a guide with extraordinary physique, he might have to go straight to the funeral and report in the funeral parlor.
Fortunately, although Zhou Zekai was deeply involved in bonding fever, he was not as ignorant of the surrounding situation as he was in sensory overload. When two rounds of massage failed to relieve the heat in his body, Zhou Zekai also felt that something was wrong.Before his passion got out of control again, he hurriedly got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom. His running back looked like some scumbag who was caught on the spot when he was messing with men and women outside.
While playing Xiaoxiaole in boredom, while listening to the sound of running water in the bathroom that has not stopped for nearly two hours, Jiang Botao deeply felt that their water and electricity bills this month might not be in triple digits—he was not right. Zhou Zekai is insensitive to the current predicament, but the guide's unlimited tolerance for the sentries is not a good thing at certain times - the combination of heat and light cannot be solved by relying on sex, and unrestrained sex will only make the sentries more and more in the heat of combination. The deeper the trap, the more it evolves into sensory overload and abnormality of the empathy system, eventually destroying two people at the same time.
The tower has developed related sedative injections for the sentinel's fusion fever, but now that the east tower has disappeared, they have no resources at hand, and this sudden fusion fever can only be overcome by Zhou Zekai himself.
At around 02:30 in the morning, the sound of water in the bathroom finally stopped.Zhou Zekai, who was tormented by the alternation of the high temperature in his body and the cold water on his body surface, was almost collapsed. He dragged himself out of the bathroom. When he looked up, he was surprised to find that Jiang Botao was still awake.
"Ah, Xiao Zhou, just right." Jiang Botao caught a glimpse of Zhou Zekai coming out, and quickly reached out and patted the bed beside him to let him come over.Zhou Zekai shook the towel tied around his waist for some unknown reason, climbed onto the bed calmly and leaned towards him, and kept a little distance from Jiang Botao—he was soaked in cold water for more than two hours, and now his whole body was like ice. It was terribly cold—Jiang Botao didn't care about it at all, he posted it and stuffed the phone into Zhou Zekai's hand, eagerly said: "Look, is this something you met in the East Pagoda?"
Hearing this, Zhou Zekai regained his energy immediately. He took the phone and took a closer look. There was an opened document on the screen.The document is not long, but it introduces a kind of underworld creature called "King" in detail——
"Jie" is a very rare protoplast-like slime mold organism, the molecular matrix, the parent "King" will undergo mitosis after absorbing enough nutrients, and the separated sub-kingdom will be attached to the shadows passing through the mother "King" (including biotic and abiotic) for migration and transfer.Due to being separated from the mother body, the activity of the sub-world is very limited. After several transfers, the sub-world will be trapped in the shadow of the object it is currently attached to.
The sub-realm is the main nutrient provider of the parent "realm". All creatures in the shadow inhabiting the sub-realm (hereinafter collectively referred to as the shadow) are the predation targets of the sub-realm, and the sub-realm will alienate the shadow into a kind of swamp-like substance , once swallowed by the "swamp", the prey will be transported to the vicinity of the mother through the sub-realm, and become the source of nutrition for the mother "realm".
It can be inferred that there is still a connection between the separated sub-world and the parent "kingdom", and this connection can cut space.
The activity of the sub-world is proportional to the desire to attack and the concentration and size of the shadow, and it changes with the change of the shadow; when multiple shadows inhabiting the sub-world overlap, the activity of the sub-world and the desire to attack increase geometrically; The overlapping of shadows and ordinary shadows will not extend the attack range of the sub-world; the sub-world will not attack the owner of the shadow inhabiting it; people outside the shadow will not be actively attacked by the sub-world.
The best way to kill the subworld is to directly kill the owner of the shadow and cremate his body; if the owner of the shadow is non-living, then the area where it is located must be forcibly isolated to prevent all living things from entering the shadow.
Theoretically, a sub-world that has not been predated within a month will fall into a dormant state, and the intrusion of creatures will wake up the sub-world. At this time, the activity and desire to attack of the sub-world is low, but there is still a certain degree of aggressiveness; A sub-realm that has not carried out predation behavior for three months can be judged as dead, and creatures can enter and exit it safely and freely, and the blockade of the shadow area can be lifted as appropriate.
……
"That's right," Zhou Zekai read the document back and forth twice, and combined with his previous personal experience, he was very sure that the "sub-world" mentioned in the document should be the "shadows" he encountered in the East Pagoda that day.While handing the phone back to Jiang Botao, Zhou Zekai paused and asked a little longer: "Where did you get it from?"
"Senior Xiao sent it to me." Jiang Botao closed the document, and the screen automatically switched back to the communication software. Zhou Zekai glanced at it, and it was indeed Xiao Shiqin who sent the document. Bored, I thought of the East Tower, so I dug up some 'inside information' for me, which was dug out from the second batch of special investigation teams stationed in the East Tower."
Zhou Zekai opened his mouth hesitantly, but finally closed it without saying anything.Jiang Botao didn't pay attention to him, but continued on his own: "With this document, we can basically confirm that the disappearance of more than 100 people in the East Tower and the first batch of special investigation team members are related to the 'Related, they were probably attacked by the 'sub-realm' and were transferred to the vicinity of the mother body by it."
"Now our starting point is very clear. As long as we find the mother body of the 'sub-world' in the east tower, the case may be half solved."
"And there is another piece of good news. Because of the discovery of the 'Zijie', the restrictions on our movement from above have finally been lifted. The special investigation team will temporarily replace East Tower to provide us with logistical support. Although there is no notification yet, Senior Xiao The relevant documents have been found, and the official notice may come down tomorrow...Xiao Zhou? Are you listening?"
Jiang Botao, who was still passionately typing and chatting with Xiao Shiqin, turned his head to look, only to realize that Zhou Zekai had curled up next to him and fell asleep at some point. Wet a large piece.
Jiang Botao smiled helplessly, thinking that tonight's sudden combination fever really tormented his sentinel, not to mention it was almost three o'clock in the morning, and it was really time to go to bed.
Thinking up to this point, Jiang Botao said good night to Xiao Shiqin, and without waiting for his reply, he put his phone on the bedside table and got out of bed in his pajamas, went to the bathroom to find a dry towel, folded it back carefully and Help Zhou Zekai wipe his wet hair as thoroughly as possible.Zhou Zekai, who was already in a drowsy sleep, snorted unconsciously. He didn't know if he was calling him or just dreaming, but Jiang Botao replied softly.
"Sleep, I'm here," he said.
The consequence of staying up late was that the two of them slept until one o'clock in the afternoon. If Jiang Botao hadn't been woken up by starvation, they might have been able to sleep until night fell.
Jiang Botao, who had finished ordering takeaway sleepily, turned his head and wanted to apologize to Zhou Zekai who was woken up by him. Who would have thought that Jiang Botao would wake up laughing at this glance—because he didn't dry his hair last night. He just fell asleep, and now Zhou Zekai was wearing a head of fluffy and bursting hair. At first glance, he thought it was a murderous boy from some village—Jiang Botao, who couldn't stop laughing, made Zhou Zekai who was still sitting on the bed in a daze Grabbed into the bathroom, combed with the right hand, gelled with the left, and took care of it in front of the mirror for 10 minutes before returning Zhou Zekai's "fashionable hairstyle" to normal.
After filling their stomachs with spicy hot pot takeaway, the two nestled on the sofa and waited for their reinstatement notice. Looking at the sentence at the end of the notice, "The organization research agrees that Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao will be officially reinstated since the notice was delivered." Zhou Zekai suddenly felt his shoulders lighten, and his whole body felt much better.
Jiang Botao, who had only been reinstated one second ago, was typing reports non-stop the next second, preparing to apply to the special investigation team for a general-purpose wizard sedative mixture and two injections for sentinel binding fever.Watching Jiang Botao's report from the side, Zhou Zekai felt very puzzled: Forget about injections for binding fever, since his guide is by his side, why does he still need a spare such as the general-purpose wizard sedative mixture?
"Oh, be prepared, be prepared." After delivering the report, Jiang Botao put his laptop aside, half-lyed on Zhou Zekai's body and began to act like a baby, with a hint of distress in his tone: "It's all my fault that I was not prepared. You suffered so much in vain when you were not here."
"That's a special situation." Zhou Zekai, who had nothing to do with Jiang Botao, could only reach out and pinch his nose, "You will always be here."
The two of them squabbled on the sofa for a while, and finally they were ready to get down to business—now that the two of them have been reinstated, they have their identities, their handles, and their backup. Now let’s investigate the “11.12 large-scale The collective disappearance incident", I feel that the whole person has become a lot more rigid.It's a pity that Ma Jianlin's phone call came in before the two of them got tough. At that time, the on-site investigation of Yan Shaoli's case had been completely investigated. According to the arrangement, the trace team of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the police department will go to Tang Jianbo tomorrow morning The villa under his name conducted an on-site re-investigation of the Guan Lei case.
According to their agreement, Ma Jianlin called at this time to agree with Jiang Botao on the meeting time and place tomorrow. Since he and Zhou Zekai were not familiar with the address reported by Ma Jianlin, Jiang Botao and Ma Jianlin agreed that Shi Wengao would drive here tomorrow. Take the two to the scene.
"Okay, I'm going to show up in the police car again." Jiang Botao casually threw his phone on the sofa, and said to Zhou Zekai in a half-joking and half-worried way: "It seems that the image of us two in the mouths of grandparents will never get better. .”
"If it's not good, it's not good." Zhou Zekai rubbed Jiang Botao's bangs, leaned forward and kissed the corner of his lips lightly, "I don't care."
Turning around, I don't know if Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao were impatient, or because Shi Wengao was indeed late.The two stomped their feet in the cold wind and waited for nearly 10 minutes before Shi Wengao drove a police car to the gate of the community to pick him up.Seeing the two conspicuous young men in the 19th building got into the police car again, the elders and aunts who were sitting on the side of the road basking in the sun really got together and muttered for a while.
The two people who had already boarded the car naturally couldn't hear these gossips and groundless arrangements. They slept too much during the day yesterday, so they couldn't sleep that night. They stayed up until one in the morning with boring online games.They didn't feel it when they were waiting in the cold wind, but now the two of them arrived in the warm car, and as soon as they were smoked by the heater, they began to feel sleepy again.
——So, the side effects of staying up late are persistent.
Zhou Zekai felt that he and Jiang Botao hadn't slept long in the back seat when the car had already arrived.This is a villa area called Depu Qingyuan located in the southwest of Depu District. The entire project area is almost as large as the Forbidden City, and more than 200 single-family villas are scattered in it.It is said that the feng shui here is one of the best auspicious veins in S City. The villa area is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The people who live here are either rich or expensive. Some villas facing the water even have private docks.
Shi Wengao, who belongs to the middle class, felt guilty after taking two extra steps in the villa area, but Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao, who were still renting a house, walked straight to the villa with the police car parked in front of it—wanted to come there It is Tang Jianbo's villa.
"Here we come." Ma Jianlin stepped forward to greet the two of them, "We have just arrived, and Xiao Zeng has gone to the property to get the keys. Wait a minute."
Jiang Botao responded, only to find that Zhou Zekai beside him had been staring at the garage of Tang's villa with the police seal on it. His breathing rate was not normal, and his mood swings also had abnormal ups and downs.Not knowing why, Jiang Botao said something bad, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Zhou Zekai, pulling the latter back to his senses. He could clearly see the uneasiness and disbelief in his sentinel's eyes.
"Xiao Zhou, look at me, look at me." Jiang Botao quickly spread out the mental barrier to temporarily protect Zhou Zekai from being disturbed by external information, and then he stretched out his hands to hold Zhou Zekai's cheeks, forcing him to look directly at him. To myself, "Breathe slowly, slowly, here I am, not going anywhere."
With Jiang Botao's help, Zhou Zekai easily relieved the overbreathing symptoms caused by excessive shock: he slowly exhaled the last breath of stale air in his chest, and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Botao asked with a slight frown.
"I dreamed of this place," Zhou Zekai said in a low voice, as if he couldn't believe it himself: "They are behind the door."
"What, what?" Jiang Botao didn't react for a while.
"When I was with you in the hospital," Zhou Zekai pointed to the sealed white steel tile rolling door of the garage, and explained to Jiang Botao, "I dreamed about it, and they asked me for help from behind the door, they in the East Tower."
Jiang Botao was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Did you have a precognitive dream? What else did you dream about?"
"A strange child, a boy." Zhou Zekai recalled, "He told me not to open the door. If the door is opened, the butterfly will die, and so will he."
After hearing this, Jiang Botao was stunned. Such an inexplicable answer made him wonder if Zhou Zekai who dreamed about the rolling door had a precognitive dream, or if it was just a coincidence.
Just when Jiang Botao was struggling with how to comfort Zhou Zekai, Xiao Zeng, who went to the property to get the keys, came back with the property manager.The property manager looked smug, looking for the keys, and complaining about why the police department came again. Ma Jianlin, who couldn't listen to it, scolded him for a few words on the grounds that "police affairs are the most important thing", and the property manager angrily dismissed Tang Jianbo. Give him the spare key of the villa.
Although Zhou Zekai wanted to prevent Ma Jianlin from tearing up the seal and reopening the garage, he swallowed the words when he got to his lips—after all, a strange dream is not a convincing reason.
Accompanied by the sound of the motor of the rolling shutter door, the garage door of Tang's villa, which had been closed for more than a month, slowly opened again under the watchful eyes of a group of people.However, before the shutter door could be fully opened, everyone present exclaimed, and the property manager, who was still arrogant, was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
——In the first scene where Guan Lei was killed a month ago, there was an extra male corpse out of thin air!
The male corpse was wearing a thin hospital gown, leaning against a blood-stained mobile dissecting bed in the garage, facing the garage door, and there was no visible trauma on the exposed skin, only his hands and ten fingers His fingertips were dripping with blood, and even his nails were turned out, as if he had experienced a painful struggle before his death.
Just when Ma Jianlin and his group cordoned off the scene because of the sudden appearance of the male corpse, and called the police department to look for foreign aid, Zhou Zekai, who had seen the appearance of the male corpse, read a name softly: "...Li Yin."
The face of the male corpse was very familiar to both Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao. It was a colleague they had been with day and night in the East Tower, a guide who was as good as Jiang Botao, and a special dual ability user.
"Li Yin is dead...?" Zhou Zekai murmured such a cruel fact in disbelief. Before he could recover from the shock of his former colleague's sudden death, a strong abnormal mood swing hit him. Sympathetic system.
——This abnormal emotion came from Jiang Botao.
Zhou Zekai, who had never received abnormal emotional feedback from a guide, couldn't help turning his head to look at Jiang Botao who was standing beside him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Xiao Zhou, I, I, I, I..." His guide didn't look at him, Jiang Botao's eyes were still fixed on the garage, his lips moved several times, but he still couldn't say a word Complete sentences.
It was evident that his guide was now more disturbed and frightened than he himself was.
Since sentinels can't deal with the negative emotions that appear in the empathy system, Zhou Zekai can only forcefully suppress the discomfort caused by the abnormal fluctuations, and start to do what Jiang Botao has always done, to support his guide. After clearing the mental barrier to isolate interference, Zhou Zekai broke Jiang Botao's shoulder and forced him to look at him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, okay? I'm here."
"..." Jiang Botao looked straight at Zhou Zekai, and finally found his voice after several attempts: "Okay."
Feeling that Jiang Botao's mood had eased, Zhou Zekai stretched out his hand to give him a hug, but Jiang Botao didn't respond to him—he let Zhou Zekai hold him and stood there for a few minutes, and then Jiang Botao silently cleaned up the empathy system. Negative emotions put in by him.
"Li Yin is gone, but everyone else will be fine." Zhou Zekai comforted him.
"It's not because of that, Xiao Zhou, no." Jiang Botao shook his head, he pushed Zhou Zekai away, his movements were slow and tired, "It's because of that."
Following Jiang Botao's fingertips, Zhou Zekai saw the words painted in red on the wall facing the garage door that he hadn't seen before because Li Yin's corpse had attracted all his attention.
——73, Dad is waiting for you.
"Before I got the name Jiang Botao," at the same time, Jiang Botao said softly beside him, with a tear in his trembling voice, as if he was being forced to tell a nightmare that he never wanted to mention: "My The code name is 73."
"Well... about two days." Ma Jianlin said, "When the trace team withdraws from the Yan Shaoli case, we can go to re-investigate. I will notify you when the time comes."
"Thank you, Captain Ma." Jiang Botao exchanged some polite words with Ma Jianlin, ending today's "one-day tour of the police department".
At that time, it was already past the meal time, Jiang Botao, who was so hungry, dragged his children who were still throwing tantrums to find a random restaurant, and prepared to deal with the meal.Although Zhou Zekai was losing his temper, he also understood that Jiang Botao was thinking about his physical condition. After such a long time, half of his anger was already gone, and the other party kept putting his favorite sweet and sour short ribs into his bowl with a smile. , the other half of the gas is naturally self-defeating.
"Are you angry?" Jiang Botao threw the last piece of sweet and sour ribs into Zhou Zekai's bowl, while tilting his head and looking at him cautiously.
Even though his anger had subsided, the wicked Zhou Zekai still replied, "I'm angry."
Seeing that Zhou Zekai was teasing him, Jiang Botao deliberately drooped his brows, and prolonged his tone of voice, both distressed and half teasing: "Oh, what should I do if my child loses his temper, wait online, hurry up."
"Thank you for the invitation." Zhou Zekai replied solemnly, "A kiss will be fine."
Facts have proved that Zhou Zekai's "kiss" is not just a simple "kiss".
——Damn, false answer, report.
Wrapped in the duvet, Jiang Botao lay prone on the pillow, rubbing his lower back with one hand, and brushing his phone with the other, thinking this angrily.

After filling their stomachs with spicy hot pot takeaway, the two nestled on the sofa and waited for their reinstatement notice. Looking at the sentence at the end of the notice, "The organization research agrees that Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao will be officially reinstated since the notice was delivered." Zhou Zekai suddenly felt his shoulders lighten, and his whole body felt much better.
Jiang Botao, who had only been reinstated one second ago, was typing reports non-stop the next second, preparing to apply to the special investigation team for a general-purpose wizard sedative mixture and two injections for sentinel binding fever.Watching Jiang Botao's report from the side, Zhou Zekai felt very puzzled: Forget about injections for binding fever, since his guide is by his side, why does he still need a spare such as the general-purpose wizard sedative mixture?
"Oh, be prepared, be prepared." After delivering the report, Jiang Botao put his laptop aside, half-lyed on Zhou Zekai's body and began to act like a baby, with a hint of distress in his tone: "It's all my fault that I was not prepared. You suffered so much in vain when you were not here."
"That's a special situation." Zhou Zekai, who had nothing to do with Jiang Botao, could only reach out and pinch his nose, "You will always be here."
The two of them squabbled on the sofa for a while, and finally they were ready to get down to business—now that the two of them have been reinstated, they have their identities, their handles, and their backup. Now let’s investigate the “11.12 large-scale The collective disappearance incident", I feel that the whole person has become a lot more rigid.It's a pity that Ma Jianlin's phone call came in before the two of them got tough. At that time, the on-site investigation of Yan Shaoli's case had been completely investigated. According to the arrangement, the trace team of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the police department will go to Tang Jianbo tomorrow morning The villa under his name conducted an on-site re-investigation of the Guan Lei case.
According to their agreement, Ma Jianlin called at this time to agree with Jiang Botao on the meeting time and place tomorrow. Since he and Zhou Zekai were not familiar with the address reported by Ma Jianlin, Jiang Botao and Ma Jianlin agreed that Shi Wengao would drive here tomorrow. Take the two to the scene.
"Okay, I'm going to show up in the police car again." Jiang Botao casually threw his phone on the sofa, and said to Zhou Zekai in a half-joking and half-worried way: "It seems that the image of us two in the mouths of grandparents will never get better. .”
"If it's not good, it's not good." Zhou Zekai rubbed Jiang Botao's bangs, leaned forward and kissed the corner of his lips lightly, "I don't care."
Turning around, I don't know if Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao were impatient, or because Shi Wengao was indeed late.The two stomped their feet in the cold wind and waited for nearly 10 minutes before Shi Wengao drove a police car to the gate of the community to pick him up.Seeing the two conspicuous young men in the 19th building got into the police car again, the elders and aunts who were sitting on the side of the road basking in the sun really got together and muttered for a while.
The two people who had already boarded the car naturally couldn't hear these gossips and groundless arrangements. They slept too much during the day yesterday, so they couldn't sleep that night. They stayed up until one in the morning with boring online games.They didn't feel it when they were waiting in the cold wind, but now the two of them arrived in the warm car, and as soon as they were smoked by the heater, they began to feel sleepy again.
——So, the side effects of staying up late are persistent.
Zhou Zekai felt that he and Jiang Botao hadn't slept long in the back seat when the car had already arrived.This is a villa area called Depu Qingyuan located in the southwest of Depu District. The entire project area is almost as large as the Forbidden City, and more than 200 single-family villas are scattered in it.It is said that the feng shui here is one of the best auspicious veins in S City. The villa area is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The people who live here are either rich or expensive. Some villas facing the water even have private docks.
Shi Wengao, who belongs to the middle class, felt guilty after taking two extra steps in the villa area, but Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao, who were still renting a house, walked straight to the villa with the police car parked in front of it—wanted to come there It is Tang Jianbo's villa.
"Here we come." Ma Jianlin stepped forward to greet the two of them, "We have just arrived, and Xiao Zeng has gone to the property to get the keys. Wait a minute."
Jiang Botao responded, only to find that Zhou Zekai beside him had been staring at the garage of Tang's villa with the police seal on it. His breathing rate was not normal, and his mood swings also had abnormal ups and downs.Not knowing why, Jiang Botao said something bad, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Zhou Zekai, pulling the latter back to his senses. He could clearly see the uneasiness and disbelief in his sentinel's eyes.
"Xiao Zhou, look at me, look at me." Jiang Botao quickly spread out the mental barrier to temporarily protect Zhou Zekai from being disturbed by external information, and then he stretched out his hands to hold Zhou Zekai's cheeks, forcing him to look directly at him. To myself, "Breathe slowly, slowly, here I am, not going anywhere."
With Jiang Botao's help, Zhou Zekai easily relieved the overbreathing symptoms caused by excessive shock: he slowly exhaled the last breath of stale air in his chest, and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Botao asked with a slight frown.
"I dreamed of this place," Zhou Zekai said in a low voice, as if he couldn't believe it himself: "They are behind the door."
"What, what?" Jiang Botao didn't react for a while.
"When I was with you in the hospital," Zhou Zekai pointed to the sealed white steel tile rolling door of the garage, and explained to Jiang Botao, "I dreamed about it, and they asked me for help from behind the door, they in the East Tower."
Jiang Botao was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Did you have a precognitive dream? What else did you dream about?"
"A strange child, a boy." Zhou Zekai recalled, "He told me not to open the door. If the door is opened, the butterfly will die, and so will he."
After hearing this, Jiang Botao was stunned. Such an inexplicable answer made him wonder if Zhou Zekai who dreamed about the rolling door had a precognitive dream, or if it was just a coincidence.
Just when Jiang Botao was struggling with how to comfort Zhou Zekai, Xiao Zeng, who went to the property to get the keys, came back with the property manager.The property manager looked smug, looking for the keys, and complaining about why the police department came again. Ma Jianlin, who couldn't listen to it, scolded him for a few words on the grounds that "police affairs are the most important thing", and the property manager angrily dismissed Tang Jianbo. Give him the spare key of the villa.
Although Zhou Zekai wanted to prevent Ma Jianlin from tearing up the seal and reopening the garage, he swallowed the words when he got to his lips—after all, a strange dream is not a convincing reason.
Accompanied by the sound of the motor of the rolling shutter door, the garage door of Tang's villa, which had been closed for more than a month, slowly opened again under the watchful eyes of a group of people.However, before the shutter door could be fully opened, everyone present exclaimed, and the property manager, who was still arrogant, was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
——In the first scene where Guan Lei was killed a month ago, there was an extra male corpse out of thin air!
The male corpse was wearing a thin hospital gown, leaning against a blood-stained mobile dissecting bed in the garage, facing the garage door, and there was no visible trauma on the exposed skin, only his hands and ten fingers His fingertips were dripping with blood, and even his nails were turned out, as if he had experienced a painful struggle before his death.
Just when Ma Jianlin and his group cordoned off the scene because of the sudden appearance of the male corpse, and called the police department to look for foreign aid, Zhou Zekai, who had seen the appearance of the male corpse, read a name softly: "...Li Yin."
The face of the male corpse was very familiar to both Zhou Zekai and Jiang Botao. It was a colleague they had been with day and night in the East Tower, a guide who was as good as Jiang Botao, and a special dual ability user.
"Li Yin is dead...?" Zhou Zekai murmured such a cruel fact in disbelief. Before he could recover from the shock of his former colleague's sudden death, a strong abnormal mood swing hit him. Sympathetic system.
——This abnormal emotion came from Jiang Botao.
Zhou Zekai, who had never received abnormal emotional feedback from a guide, couldn't help turning his head to look at Jiang Botao who was standing beside him, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Xiao Zhou, I, I, I, I..." His guide didn't look at him, Jiang Botao's eyes were still fixed on the garage, his lips moved several times, but he still couldn't say a word Complete sentences.
It was evident that his guide was now more disturbed and frightened than he himself was.
Since sentinels can't deal with the negative emotions that appear in the empathy system, Zhou Zekai can only forcefully suppress the discomfort caused by the abnormal fluctuations, and start to do what Jiang Botao has always done, to support his guide. After clearing the mental barrier to isolate interference, Zhou Zekai broke Jiang Botao's shoulder and forced him to look at him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, okay? I'm here."
"..." Jiang Botao looked straight at Zhou Zekai, and finally found his voice after several attempts: "Okay."
Feeling that Jiang Botao's mood had eased, Zhou Zekai stretched out his hand to give him a hug, but Jiang Botao didn't respond to him—he let Zhou Zekai hold him and stood there for a few minutes, and then Jiang Botao silently cleaned up the empathy system. Negative emotions put in by him.
"Li Yin is gone, but everyone else will be fine." Zhou Zekai comforted him.
"It's not because of that, Xiao Zhou, no." Jiang Botao shook his head, he pushed Zhou Zekai away, his movements were slow and tired, "It's because of that."
Following Jiang Botao's fingertips, Zhou Zekai saw the words painted in red on the wall facing the garage door that he hadn't seen before because Li Yin's corpse had attracted all his attention.
——73, Dad is waiting for you.
"Before I got the name Jiang Botao," at the same time, Jiang Botao said softly beside him, with a tear in his trembling voice, as if he was being forced to tell a nightmare that he never wanted to mention: "My The code name is 73."
