Shen Baizhou slept very deeply. When he woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. It was the time when the sun was dazzling. Fortunately, the white curtains were drawn and the light in the room was moderate. Shen Baizhou slept very comfortably.

He yawned, he didn't see Lu Shihuai in the room, maybe he was busy with something.Shen Baizhou glanced at the time, then stared at his unfinished homework, and couldn't help crying silently in his heart.

I ate a lot of snacks, but I didn't do much homework at all.

How would he go back to work for his mother?Shen Baizhou's head hurts just thinking about it.

He packed up his homework and prepared to go back, by the way, he said hello to Lu Shihuai before leaving.When Shen Baizhou walked outside, he found that the door was not completely closed, but only a small gap was left, through which the voices from outside came in.

"How will it be handled then?"

"It's all up to your arrangement." Lu Shihuai said.

"Did you come back this time specifically for this matter? Please trouble yourself." The boy continued.

Shen Baizhou didn't hear what the man continued to say, his mind was so occupied with "the 25th birthday", that he didn't even notice when Lu Shihuai came in.

"How long have you been listening?" Lu Shihuai asked him expressionlessly.

"Just for a while." Shen Baizhou looked at Lu Shihuai cautiously, "Brother, are you in a bad mood?"

Lu Shihuai looked down at this child who could easily detect his emotions, changed his mood very quickly, and returned to his previous indifferent face: "No."

Shen Baizhou remembered the first time he saw Lu Shihuai before, the back of his hand was full of wounds just left, it was horrifying.

He wanted to ask again, but Lu Shihuai didn't give him the chance.

"I'm a little tired, you should go back today." Lu Shihuai said, anyway, Shen Baizhou planned to go home.

"Brother—" Shen Baizhou was a little dissatisfied, and wanted to ask more questions, but Lu Shihuai's attitude was very firm, and he even opened the door for him.

Before leaving, Lu Shihuai packed the pile of snack bags and stuffed them into Shen Baizhou's arms.

After Shen Baizhou left, Lu Shihuai's room was the same as before, cold, dead, unable to speak.

He was picked out from the orphanage by Lu Chen when he was five years old, but more than one was picked out, and they had to face countless training and elimination, biting and chasing each other.

Those who fall last never benefit.

To the outside world, Lu Shihuai is Lu Chen's child and the only legal heir.

And the heir has always only needed weapons, not more emotions.

He took out the small recorder from the drawer, put on a Bluetooth headset, and clicked to play.

"At that time, my wife was pregnant with dystocia and died after giving birth to the child. But the child was weak at the time. After a few days of observation in the hospital, he said that he might not live for a year. As a result, the child was not breathing within a week." The owner of the voice heard With a certain age, he still trembled a little when he spoke, and he couldn't spit out as if there was a piece of phlegm stuck in his throat.

The words inside made others feel cold.

He knows Lu Chen too well, he doesn't need any extra feelings, many things are the same in his eyes, they can be used and calculated.

What he needs is a healthy, smart knife that can do everything for him, not a piece of scrap metal.

And the 25th is not his birthday, it's that child's.

A group of people selected in the orphanage at that time had to live in the shadow of No. 25, all of them were substitutes, without exception.

After Shen Baizhou returned home with a bunch of snacks, Chu Xueli and some neighbors around the table were playing mahjong on the table. The sound of mahjong colliding was especially obvious in the living room, and it was extremely noisy.

Chu Le and his group are still watching TV around the living room. There is no computer here, and the elders don’t let them play with their mobile phones. Before, Chu Feng downloaded online games on Chu Xueli’s mobile phone and deducted hundreds of dollars for clothes and equipment. Later, he said Nothing to play with the phone.

They watched Shen Baizhou come back with a big bag of things, and asked with interest: "Did that brother give you this?"

"Hmm!" Shen Baizhou put the snack pack on the table, tilted his head and asked, "Do you want to eat?"

"Then I'll take two bags." Chufeng said.

He took out two boxes of small cakes from it, and when Chu Fei saw them, he said, "This one is very expensive, it costs more than a few hundred in a small box, you can just take one."

Chufeng was shocked, the movements in his hands stopped, and he asked in surprise with wide eyes: "It's so expensive?"

"The class flower in our class, I saw her eat it last time, and the label under it hasn't been removed yet."

The children’s voices were very loud, and the sound of automatic mahjong shuffling could not be blocked. One of the older sisters, who looked quite honest, smiled and said: “Nowadays, children’s food is getting more and more expensive. In our previous era, Wowotou Too hungry."

"Vegetable roots are good!" Someone went on and laughed.

Shen Baizhou saw that they were pushing back and forth, so he took out the cake, jelly, and biscuits from the bag and gave them one by one: "I've eaten it! This is what my brother asked me to bring back!"

The mahjong player over there saw it and teased him: "My little friend, Auntie is also hungry. Would you like to share some with Auntie?"

After hearing this, Shen Baizhou walked over there with the bag in his arms, took the initiative to take out food from it, and said in an obedient tone that you are welcome.

A few aunts couldn't help laughing when they saw it. Seeing this, they asked the children to put away their things and started a new round of playing cards.

Chu Xueli also laughed, and said: "This kid is very clever and slippery. He coaxed the young master who lives in the villa next door to buy him food. Unlike the few in our family, they are so stupid."

"Mom, I'm not stupid." Chu Fei immediately became dissatisfied.

Children can't tell the smell, but the poker players are all good people, so they quickly found a topic to talk about, and then continued to play cards.

Shen Baizhou didn't want to stay here any longer, and went upstairs with his treasured small treasury. When he went up the stairs, he was still thinking about what to give his brother for his birthday.

Before Shen Baizhou entered the room, he was still thinking about what to give, but when he opened the piggy bank, he saw that there were only a few five-yuan bills in it, and some scattered bills and coins.

Usually, the money Qiu Ya gave was used to buy all kinds of candies and snacks, so that until now I haven't been able to save much money.

What frustrates and embarrasses Shen Baizhou is no longer choosing a gift, but also where the funds for buying the gift come from.

It may be that the depression is too obvious, Shen Baizhou couldn't say anything when Qiuya asked him, but when Chu Fei and the others asked, Shen Baizhou said everything like pouring beans.

Chufeng stroked his chin: "It turns out that I want to buy gifts and lack money."

Shen Baizhou was distressed: "If I knew it earlier, I would have bought less food."

Chu Fei was thoughtful: "I used to run errands in Internet cafes for others, just to cook instant noodles and help buy something. The trip cost five yuan a time."

Chufeng disagreed a bit: "He is only eight years old, so it's not good to go to an Internet cafe at such a young age."

"I've been fighting landlords in Internet cafes since I was seven years old. What's wrong with that? It's not about playing. I'm running errands with others to make some money. We'll be watching."

Shen Baizhou didn't hear them chatting, but he just calculated in his mind, one time was five yuan, ten trips would be 50 yuan, and ten trips within five days would be 250 yuan!

250 bucks!Shen Baizhou's eyes were shining.

The three of them discussed and left Chu Le at home first. He was too young to qualify for an Internet cafe, so the group slipped out under the name of playing around with Shen Baizhou.

The Internet cafe is a bit far from home, and it takes two stops to take the bus, but in order to save money, the group walked for more than ten minutes to the Internet cafe.

This is Shen Baizhou's first visit to an Internet cafe. He looked at the words "Feiyue Internet Cafe" above his head, and then at Chu Fei and the others, "Is it here?"

The two nodded, and Shen Baizhou walked in with them.

This Internet cafe was very ordinary, and when he entered, it was filled with smog, and the unbearable smell of smoke wafted through his nostrils, and he couldn't help coughing twice.

The two brothers of the Chu family saw that they were veterans, so they threw money at the front desk and turned on two machines.He walked inside with Shen Baizhou, and said: "This Internet cafe has been open for many years, and there is no snack area here. If you want to buy snacks, you have to walk a few minutes nearby to eat."

"You can ask them one by one at that time, and just clarify the travel expenses. Some are generous, and they give as much money as you, and they don't want any money back."

Shen Baizhou listened attentively.

When Chu Fei walked up to the computer he was running, he turned it on swiftly, and gave Shen Baizhou a perfunctory slap: "Okay, I've told you almost everything I know, go and try it first."

After Shen Baizhou left, Chufeng looked at him and frowned and said, "Did you use him to go online on purpose?"

Chu Fei smiled, "Uncle doesn't have a computer to play at home, aren't you tired from watching TV all day? Get online soon, I heard that the district opened yesterday."

"okay"

The two of them played until they were almost in arrears, and their eyes were a little sore after a few hours. It was only when they were about to go home that they suddenly remembered that there was Shen Baizhou.

Chu Feng and Chu Fei were shocked again, and quickly ran to the next row of computer desks to find Shen Baizhou's shadow.

At this time, he was holding a bag of Coca-Cola Sprite in his hand, and around his neck was a chicken chop bought from a nearby stall, with the words "Zheng Xinjin Chicken Chop" printed on the bag.

The sweat on his face trickled down his neck, which was as white as snow, and dripped onto the delicate collarbone.He was out of breath because of running back and forth, and his back was soaked with sweat, and his clothes were sticking to the skin to reveal a layer of flesh color.

He saw Chu Fei and the others and greeted them. Chu Feng felt a little uncomfortable seeing Shen Baizhou like this, so he took out a tissue from his pocket to wipe his sweat.

The three of them returned the same way, and Shen Baizhou counted the money in his hands along the way, full of surprises: "There are more than 100 yuan!"

Chu Fei proudly said: "Of course, I used to earn more by running around!"

In the next two days, Shen Baizhou counted the money he earned in the past few days, and it was nearly 300 yuan, but the watch he was looking at seemed to cost about [-] yuan, and there were not many holidays, so there were still two days left.

But Chu Le and the others took Shen Baizhou out every day, and they would always arouse suspicion if they told a lot of lies.

When Qiuya asked, Chu Fei said that he actually went to the video game city, and he didn't mention the Internet cafe at all. He said it so vividly that even Qiuya believed it.

On the penultimate day of the National Day, when Shen Baizhou followed them out again, he met Lu Shihuai who was watering flowers at the door.

Shen Baizhou ran over in surprise and called out to his brother.

Lu Shihuai put down the watering bucket, and glanced at Shen Baizhou and the two brothers of the Chu family behind him without emotion. Chu Fei was inexplicably terrified by his gaze, and his body seemed to be chilled.

He picked up the handkerchief and wiped his wet fingers, responded to Shen Baizhou, and then inadvertently asked, "Where are you going?"

Shen Baizhou couldn't tell the truth, and he didn't want to lie. While hesitating, Chu Fei put his arm on Shen Baizhou's shoulder and said, "He went out with our brothers to buy something."

Shen Baizhou racked his brains and didn't know how to answer. After hearing Chu Fei's rescue, he nodded in a daze and stuttered his answer: "Well, go, go out and play."

Lu Shihuai smiled softly, the laughter was so weak that it seemed that the wind could not hear it.

Such laughter reached Shen Baizhou's ears, making him feel like he was suffering in his heart.

So much so that he bought the wrong brand of Coke when he was running errands for others in an Internet cafe.

Fortunately, the young man didn't blame him, and said in a gentle voice that he was fine.

"Then I don't want your traveling expenses this time." Shen Baizhou took out ten yuan from his pocket. He remembered this person. Usually, everyone else gave five yuan, but this young man in a denim jacket gave him ten yuan. .

Shen Baizhou handed over the money to the young man, but the young man grabbed the back of his hand and stuffed it back, "No, brother, you can buy a drink later."

Shen Baizhou took the ten yuan and walked towards the toilet to wash his face and wipe the sweat off his body with a paper towel. He ran five or six times this morning and was as tired as if he had run 800 meters in school.

There are not many toilets in Internet cafes, there are only toilets, the kind of mixed toilets for men and women.

The style of the toilet is also very old. It uses the kind of mortise lock. When the door is pushed open, it will make a creaking sound, similar to the sound of the board being stuck and being shaken around. It is almost the same as the plot in the horror movie. the difference.

Shen Baizhou was a little scared, he was not familiar with the place, and the shadows of leaves fluttering outside the window swayed back and forth.

He hastily turned on the faucet, picked up a handful of water and wet his face.

The cool water washed off the unclean sweat on his face, making him feel much more comfortable.

When Shen Baizhou raised his head again, he was about to look at his face in the mirror to see where it was not cleaned. He was suddenly taken aback by the young man who appeared behind him. It was the man Shen Baizhou had bought for him and missed the coke.

The young man took off the denim jacket he was wearing at the beginning, and there was only a white short sleeve inside.

Shen Baizhou originally wanted to say hello, but the way this man stared at him made him shudder, as if he was being stared at by something terrible.

He picked up the tissue and walked out of the door in a muffled voice. His pace was getting faster and faster. Every step was like walking on the edge of a knife. The forehead that had been wiped clean began to sweat because of fear and panic.

When he opened the door with trembling hands, the youth's voice sounded, "Little friend."

"What are your hands shaking?"

With a bang, the sugar that Shen Baizhou always had in his pocket fell on the tiled floor, making a crashing sound.

"Have you found someone?" Chu Fenglai walked back and forth in the Internet cafe several times without seeing Shen Baizhou.

"I didn't find it." Chu Fei wiped his sweat with the back of his hand, and because he was too hot to run, he lifted the hem of his clothes to fan the wind.

In the cramped toilet, Shen Baizhou's hands were grabbed, and there were red marks on his fair wrists, which contrasted very clearly with his skin tone.

The young man raised the hem of his clothes with his hands, and the wind outside the window passed through and blew on his delicate skin, causing trembling tiny bumps.

Shen Baizhou's mouth was blocked by the clothes that the young man took off, and he could only utter a few weak whimpers, like a young cub crying in the corner.

The young man's turbid eyeballs looked at Shen Baizhou's neck, and he tapped a few times with his hands to indicate that the place was more delicious. Every time he touched it, the person imprisoned by him trembled and trembled.

Shen Baizhou's eyes were red from crying and swollen like peaches overflowing with juice.

He is too young, and the power gap between the two sides is too great. Even if he has learned a little taekwondo, he can't protect himself at all.

Shen Baizhou didn't know what the young man was going to do to him, but he could realize that it was a bad thing.When the young man pulled his trouser waist down with his hand, revealing most of the white and delicate skin, Shen Baizhou suddenly collapsed and struggled desperately.

Even though he was slapped, he didn't seem to feel the pain, and his hands were already numb, as if he would be dying for a long time in the next second.

Lu Shihuai went around looking for people with a cold face, and Chufeng's expression behind him was even more embarrassing. If something really happened to Shen Baizhou, he really didn't dare to think about the consequences.

"Nothing should happen." Chu Fei comforted from the side.

Lu Shihuai stopped suddenly, and the people behind him also stopped.

He was about the same age as Chufeng, both thirteen or fourteen years old, but his eyes were hazy, Lu Shihuai stood in front of them, even if he didn't speak, it made people tremble.

"If something happens to him." Lu Shihuai's gray eyes swept between them as if he was looking at a dead object, "I'll take your skin off."

It was a bit ridiculous to say this sentence from the mouth of a teenager, but none of the two brothers from the Chu family dared to laugh, and seemed to think that he really dared to do this.

The atmosphere dropped to zero for a moment, Lu Shihuai's whole body was filled with low air pressure, his chest was throbbing violently, and it seemed to be occupied by emotions that did not belong to him.

He was cranky to the extreme.

"Master, there is no monitor at the Internet cafe, but the monitor at the opposite supermarket shows that the children have not gone out..."

"Yeah." Lu Shihuai quickly surrounded the Internet cafes and started searching one by one.

Lu Shihuai walked towards the toilet, his subordinates first took a look, and when they came out, they shook their heads to show that they didn't see it.Lu Shihuai lowered his eyebrows and suddenly stepped on a hard colored candy on the sole of his foot.

He took a deep breath, went back to the bathroom and inspected it round and round, opening all the doors of each toilet, and it was indeed empty, except for tiny flies buzzing non-stop.

Lu Shihuai was about to go out, but suddenly stopped, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath to recognize various breathing sounds.

There are even ones.

There is a rush.

What's more... the ones who are afraid of crying.

Lu Shihuai opened his eyes suddenly, and stretched out his hand to the side. The bodyguard took out the black gloves he carried with him and handed it over.

Lu Shihuai quickly put it on, locked his eyes, and took down the only mirror in the bathroom, which was half a meter wide. Inside lay his hands and feet bound by ropes, and he huddled into a ball and cried into tears. Shen Baizhou who was unable to move.

Shen Baizhou hugged the man down expressionlessly, Shen Bai's small hands tightly gripped the clothes on Lu Shihuai's chest, tears were all on them, and the snot flowed uncontrollably.

The thing stuffed in his mouth was removed, and he hiccupped and said, "Brother, brother, I'm afraid."

Lu Shihuai noticed the imprint left on the child's exposed stomach, and the pants on the back were even sagging down to reveal half of the white shorts.

Lu Shihuai finished tidying him up silently, and carried him out the door. The child's head was resting on Lu Shihuai's shoulder along the way, sobbing and crying non-stop.

After carrying him into the car, Shen Baizhou raised his teary eyes and called out to Lu Shihuai.

But Lu Shihuai's face was almost gloomy, the expression on his face was not good at all, and his already cold face was even colder now.

"Brother." Shen Baizhou wiped away his tears, wanting to hold his arm, at least to gain a little comfort and warmth.

But Lu Shihuai slapped him away, just like the first time Shen Baizhou touched him.

Shen Baizhou was stunned. From his perspective, he could only observe Lu Shihuai's cold jaw line, and his lips opening and closing, uttering two cold words:

"idiot."

The author has something to say: Don't scold your brother, don't scold your brother!

He really didn't dare to think about what that pervert would do to his younger brother if he went late!

He didn't dare to think about what would happen if he couldn't find out that his brother was hiding there!
