The tall black iron gate in front of him was tightly closed.

Xi Nian glanced at the gate with some hesitation, then at the mobile phone in his hand that could only be used as a watch and a flashlight without a card.

It's almost eight o'clock...

A voice sounded in my mind: "You don't want to go back to the team, and you don't want to go to other places, but you have to find a place to spend the night!"

Then another voice retorted: "This is Jin Chao's house! Isn't Jin Chao the last thing you want to see now? If he asks about those things, will you explain it? How will you explain it?"

"But Jin Chao must be at the base at this time, how can he go home?"

"Then what do you say when you go in and see his parents? What if his parents contact Jin Chao immediately? Or what if his parents also read the hot search?"

"Then it's okay to go in secretly?"

"Sneaking in where do you live? If they are all sleeping in the wild, why not just find a place outside, and you don't have to bear the risk of being discovered by his parents."

The two voices in his mind were arguing very fiercely, and Xi Nian felt that he had been divided into two halves. One half walked through the iron gate, while the other half turned its head and walked in the direction it came from, until——

"Who said you're going to sleep in the wild? Didn't Jin Chao take you to a small house by the river? You don't have to disturb his parents, and you can find a place to stay. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

Xi Nian's eyes lit up, and another voice in his mind that tried to refute was thrown out of the sky by him.

Yes, how could he forget that place!

In a small two-story building not far away.

"Are the cameras installed?" Jin's mother asked Jin's father who just came back while serving food from the kitchen.

Recently, this area is not peaceful. There are often thieves who drive a car with electric fishing tools to steal fish. One steal can cost hundreds of thousands of catties. There is a circle of hidden cameras on the periphery of the fish pond. If the thief dares to come again, he can take the surveillance video and go directly to the police station.

Today, Father Jin and several workers installed cameras for a day. At [-]:[-] pm, Father Jin asked the workers to get off work first, and he installed the remaining two cameras by himself. It is precisely because of this that he has been so busy until now. .

"It's ready! If anyone who doesn't have eyesight dares to steal fish this time, I'll make him pay for his underpants!" Father Jin, who was tired and fulfilled after installing the camera all day, patted his chest. , said solemnly.

"That's good." Mother Jin put the last casserole with chicken soup on the table with a smile, and suddenly became curious, "How do I watch the real-time video of the surveillance?"

"Hey, isn't this simple?" Father Jin, who had a rare opportunity to answer his wife's questions, stroked his non-existent beard, and his tail almost went up to the sky.

He took out a mobile phone from his pocket that was said to be new for a month at a certain brand counter, but it was obviously a bit worn out. Through the double unlocking of iris and fingerprint, he directly reached a very simple app interface, and explained in detail Dao: "I designed a small program and installed it in each camera. As long as you use this app, you can see the real-time surveillance video, and all the video will be synchronously transmitted to a network cloud backup made by myself. Absolutely There will be no problem that it will be covered by new videos after ten days and half a month."

"This small program also has a very powerful function." Jin's father raised his chin proudly. "Except for the data of us and workers excluded in advance, as long as a humanoid creature appears within the three-meter range of the camera, the data on the phone will The app will automatically trigger the alarm bell..."

Before the words were finished, the mobile phone in Jin's father's hand suddenly made a piercing sound——

"Di-di-di-di-"

Mother Jin: "..."

Father Jin: "..."

Mother Jin: "...cough, is that the voice?"

Father Jin: "..."

Xi Nian realized that he had really underestimated the height of the iron gate, and he had really overestimated his climbing ability... he was sweating profusely and almost fell twice... before he was able to climb over the iron gate.

He sat on the top of the iron gate, wiped the sweat from his brow, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and looked down with the dim light——

It looks about two meters long.

Xi Nian: "..."

A little dizzy.

Xi Nian regretted his decision to climb the iron gate.

...What if the barbed wire fence around here actually has dog holes?

Isn't drilling a dog hole less laborious than climbing an iron gate?

This wave is still careless!

Xi Nian regretted it.

However, at this time the ducks had already been caught up, and it was too late to regret...

You can feel the darkness when climbing up, but you have to see clearly when climbing down, otherwise it is no joke to step on the air.

Xi Nian sighed, put the end of the mobile phone in his mouth, and used the flashlight on the mobile phone to shine down. He clasped the top of the iron door tightly with both hands, and then stretched out his feet and carefully groped down for a place to step on.

Just as he climbed steadily step by step, the light of the mobile phone suddenly went out.

... Tsk, I guess it's out of power.

Fortunately, he just glanced down before the lights went out——

One meter away, there is a thick haystack at the lower left... Jump there for sure!

Just when Xi Nian took a deep breath and was about to jump down, a bright and almost glaring light suddenly appeared directly behind him, and at the same time, a majestic and angry voice sounded:

"Little thief! This time I was finally caught!"

When Xi Nian panicked, he lost all strength in his hands and feet, and fell off the iron gate all of a sudden——

"hiss--"

After deviating from the direction of the original thick haystack, Xi Nian fell heavily on the concrete floor behind the door... and felt that his buttocks were probably broken into eight petals, and even the tailbone felt a faint pain .

Misfortunes never come singly, but before he could react, the light shone directly on his face...

The next second, the majestic and angry voice became quite surprised:

"Are you... the friend Jin Chao brought back last time?"

Xi Nian: "..."

Died on the spot.jpg

"...I asked other members of the previous LG team, but Xi Nian has not contacted them." You Shuai looked frustrated.

Luo Gaoyang also shook his head: "I also contacted the people in the youth training camp who had a good relationship with Xi Nian before... nothing came of it."

The atmosphere in the conference room froze again.

Yu Xingxing looked at the crowd and asked cautiously: "Then...does anyone have the contact information of Xi Nian's family? Will he..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by two simultaneous voices:

"will not."

"impossible."

It was Jin Chao and coach Mo Qi who spoke, and they looked at each other.

Jin Chao temporarily put away the doubts in his heart, and briefly explained: "The relationship between Xi Nian and his family...is not very good, and he will never go home."

"Hey wait, I thought of it!" Manager Huangfu's eyes lit up, "He doesn't need to find friends and relatives, he can stay in a hotel!"

Mo Qiqi nodded: "I'll ask my friends to check the occupancy status of the major hotels in Xijiang City later to see if there is any record of Xi Nian... But I think it's unlikely," he turned to look at Jin Chao, "Xi Nian didn't bring his ID card when you went out, right?"

"……Um."

Xi Nian was temporarily notified by the manager to accompany Jin Chao to buy a mobile phone. Apart from his own mobile phone, he probably didn't bring anything with him...

Let alone a hotel these days, even going to an Internet cafe requires an ID card. It's so late, where can Xi Nian go?

Is there any place in Xijiang that they didn't think of and didn't need an ID card?

Jin Chao's brows were tightly furrowed, thinking carefully about every detail of his relationship with Xi Nian, trying to find clues... until a place suddenly appeared in his mind——

"I know where he went!!"

Clutching his tailbone that was still aching, Xi Nian walked peacefully beside Jin's father who was holding a flashlight, obediently...listening to his lecture:

"...you kid, you really didn't see the big doorbell next to the iron gate? You have to climb up! Fortunately, it fell halfway. If it fell from the top, you won't break a bone. Huh? You youngsters are not serious or serious!"

Father Jin, who was almost scared to death by the person falling in front of him just now, was still puzzled after scolding him a lot, and added a strong "judgment" at the end: "You think you are climbing the door? You are committing a crime! "

Xi Nian, who knew he was wrong, nodded obediently, and confessed to his "criminal behavior": "I'm sorry uncle, I was wrong."

Xi Nian was very annoyed, but what was annoyed was not the choice of climbing the door, but that he really didn't pick a good time... If he didn't climb sooner or later, why did he have to climb when Jin Chao's father was patrolling the fish pond? ?

What a mistake!

Jin Chao beside him snorted coldly as if he had heard Xi Nian's thoughts: "Hmph, don't think I don't know what you young people are thinking! Actively admit your mistakes and never repent, right?"

"..." Xi Nian quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead from an angle he couldn't see, "No, uncle, you are overthinking."

However, Jin's father didn't care what he said, and started talking again: "You young people, you are more active than anyone else in admitting your mistakes, and you are more diligent than anyone else in making mistakes blablabla..."

Xi Nian: "..."

Help QAQ

……

Father Jin trained all the way, and Xi Nian listened to the training all the way, until he was about to reach the small building on the second floor, Xi Nian suddenly stopped: "Uncle...then what, I won't go back with you. "

Hearing what he said, Jin's father was a little puzzled: "Didn't you come to play at home? Where do you live if you don't live at home?"

Knowing that Father Jin's "home" didn't mean what he thought, Xi Nian couldn't help being startled, and answered after a while: "I, I didn't come here to play..."

There are some things that Xi Nian really can't say, he pursed his lips, and explained to Jin's father in a tactful way: "...I have encountered something, and I want to stay here for two days, please don't tell auntie, or ...Don't tell Jin Chao, sorry for the inconvenience!"

Even with the peripheral light of the flashlight, Xi Nian could feel Jin's father's inquiring eyes on him, and he was a little nervous and uneasy.

But the inquiring eyes didn't last long, Jin's father quickly turned his head back: "All right, I won't tell them, but...there are fish ponds here, what will you do at night if you don't live at home?"

Xi Nian breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "It's okay, I know there is a small house by the river, and I will live there."

……

Father Jin glanced at the back of the child walking towards the river in the dark, then at the brightly lit two-story building, at the back, and at the text message he just received from someone saying he would be home in the middle of the night... ...Father Jin shook his head, and said to himself: "One is from the surveillance video, and the other is that I want to go home. I didn't say anything..."

The author has something to say: Xi Nian: ... Uncle, how could you betray me?

Father Jin: I didn't say anything. [Innocent.jpg]
