Where can people be?

The air is silent and solemn.

Gu Heng looked back at the stairs under his feet. Some time ago, he even hugged Lin Xingcheng's waist on this staircase, smelling the faint scent of pine on his body, and now the stairs are empty.

He patted the door vigorously again, but the door remained motionless, only the dull sound and the pain from his hands responded to him.

Zhou Li's words were still ringing in his ears, "Maybe he went to a competition in another city?"

Contest?

Gu Heng thought for a while, and immediately ran downstairs. He had to go to the underground mech arena to ask, maybe that was the last hope.

And maybe Lian Jun happened to be there too.

The car crashed on the way here, so Gu Heng could only take a taxi.Holding a yellow rose in one hand and 20 cash in an exquisite gift box in the other, he boarded a taxi he hadn’t sat in for a long time—the league has long stopped using cash, but still issued a small amount of banknotes , One is to use it as a currency symbol, and the other is that a small number of people use it in some fields because of nostalgia, or collect it.

So 20 in cash is actually not that easy to collect, because it has some collection value.

What Gu Heng thought was that since he wanted to give it away, cash is better than a cold card.

After finally arriving at the mech arena, Gu Heng discovered that there was a notice board posted at the entrance of the arena stating today's off-season.

The door was ajar, and the bald man who blocked him last time was smoking.Gu Heng wanted to go inside to take a look, but was stopped by the bald head again, "It's you again. There is no game today, please go back."

Gu Heng frowned and said, "I'm looking for Xing, there is something urgent, is he there?"

The bald head looked at the flowers and the gift box in his hand, "How could he be here without a game. Last time he said he was a friend, I think you are his fan, do you want to send flowers?"

Gu Heng didn't answer, but asked instead: "Is there any competition in other places today? Do you know how to contact him?"

"I don't know. Otherwise, fans like you chase him every day, who can stand it. He can compete wherever he wants, and he won't notify us."

Gu Heng pursed his lower lip, "What about Lian Jun, is your boss there?"

If Lian Jun was there, he would go directly to Lian Jun to try.Said that he was Lin Xingcheng's classmate, the two had a good relationship, and he even took Lin Xingcheng in... Maybe Lian Jun would change his mind.

Bald head: "Boss, you probably aren't here."

"I'll go in and see."

Gu Heng felt that he was being perfunctory, so he opened the door and wanted to go in, but the bald and thick arm directly grabbed the collar, "Sir, what do you think I am doing here, there is no game today, idlers are not allowed to enter. "

Gu Heng turned around angrily and shook off the bald-headed hand, trying to pull the door again, but the bald-headed took out the cigarette in his hand and directly clasped his arm, "Sir, do you not understand people's words? If you can’t enter, you must force me to do it.”

There was a sudden pain in his shoulder, and Gu Heng finally couldn't help shouting, "You fucking don't touch me, you'll hurt me, Gu's entire legal team wants you to look good!"

The bald head thought for a while, then let go of him, "Okay, as long as you don't go in."

Gu Heng was sullen and helpless, so he could only carry his things back to the side of the road, but he was aimless with the cars passing by in front of him.

Yellow roses swaying gently in the wind, charming but ironic.

After thinking about it, he called his secretary, "Do everything possible to find Lian Jun's private communication number. Also, find a way to find someone to hack into the communication operator's system and locate Lin Xingcheng's communicator."

Lin Xingcheng and Lian Jun must find one.

The secretary was stunned, "Mr. Gu, this is illegal."

"Do as I say." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone irritably.

The moment Gu Heng hung up the phone, a heavy retro motorcycle passed by with a bang, and the flying dust that was rolled up caught Gu Heng's eyes.He cursed under his breath, and the motorcycle turned around again.

The two people in the car were wearing helmets, and when they passed by his side at high speed, the people in the back seat deliberately bumped him again.

The gift box in Gu Heng's hand fell to the ground, and the lid was lifted, revealing the cash inside instantly.He was about to pick it up, but the man on the back of the motorcycle grabbed the box.

Gu Heng instinctively wanted to grab that person, but the rear of the car was thrown violently, and the motorcycle flew out quickly.

"Wow!" The excited voice drifted past his ears, followed by a whistle, "It's rich!"

Gu Heng didn't catch the man, but was thrown to the ground by the inertia of the motorcycle's forward movement. His elbows and knees were so painful that he could only watch the motorcycle go away.The yellow rose was also knocked off by those two, and its petals scattered all over the ground.

A feeling of suffocation, grief and indignation surged up instantly, and he trembled involuntarily with anger!

A passer-by saw this and wanted him to call the police, but when Gu Heng looked up, banknotes were scattered in the wind—the two people did not take the money, but scattered the cash all over the place.

There were already a lot of homeless people near the underground arena, or people who were opportunistic in order to make a living. When these people saw the banknotes flying all over the sky, they frantically rushed forward to loot them.

Before Gu Heng could react, someone stepped on his shiny leather shoes, and the sharp pain in the cold weather went from his toes to the top of his head——

The cold wind blows gently, and a sense of desolation and bleakness that has never been felt hits the face...

Gu Heng suddenly wished that a hand would reach out in front of him, and Lin Xingcheng appeared beside him, and said softly to him, "Come, come home with me." It was like being in the phone booth on a snowy night.

However, Lin Xingcheng was not in front of him, and he did not appear suddenly to comfort his lost and exhausted heart from frantic searching.

There are only bills floating around and crowds of people in disarray.

Lin Xingcheng, where are you...

The communicator rang, and Gu Heng got up in embarrassment, and managed to answer the call with some effort.

Fortunately, the secretary found out Lian Jun's private communication method.

After getting the number, he immediately dialed the other party, but after calling twice, the other party did not answer.

Because it's an unknown number?

He thought for a while, and edited a message: I'm Lin Xingcheng, is it convenient to answer the phone?

As a result, just three seconds after the message was sent, the other party dialed back.

Looking at the flashing red dot on the communicator, Gu Heng's heart couldn't help being a little excited.

Lian Juan's cheerful voice came from over there, "Xingcheng, have you changed your number?"

Gu Heng paused for a second before saying: "I'm Gu Heng, the chairman of Gu's Group... and Lin Xingcheng's friend, we met at the investment meeting last time."

"Oh, it's Mr. Gu."

"Ah."

Lian Jun put down his teacup and raised his eyebrows, thinking that you used Xingcheng's name to find me, and you don't know how to apologize?

"Can we meet up? Now." Gu Heng asked.

Hmm... I want something from others but it seems hard to say it, I can't lower my head.

"Okay, where do you want to meet Mr. Gu?"

Gu Heng: "I'm outside the underground mech arena."

Lian Jun smiled lowly, "It's such a coincidence, then come in. I'll wait for you backstage."

……

Gu Heng returned to the arena and glanced at him with his bald head, "Where are you spending?"

He pursed his lips, lowered his head, entered the door, and went backstage.

It was the first time for Gu Heng to enter the backstage, and only after he entered did he realize that there was something wrong with it.Especially Lian Jun's office, the decoration is cool and individual, and there is a mecha model on the display shelf above.

Lian Jun was wearing a rivet leather jacket, sitting on a swivel chair with his legs hanging on the table.

"President Gu, please sit down."

Gu Heng sat down, glanced at Lian Jun and pointed at the soles of his shoes, and asked, "Lin Xingcheng didn't come today? Do you know where he went?"

Lian Jun: "No, these two days off, he said he just had a rest, moved house or something."

"Where did you move to?"

"I don't know about that, I didn't ask." Lian Jun said, then paused, "Oh yes, he also said that he wanted to go shopping, see art exhibitions and so on."

"Art exhibition? Whose art exhibition?" Gu Heng asked impatiently.

Lian Jun still shook his head, "I didn't say anything. What, you are in a hurry to find him? Call him."

"Yes. He didn't answer."

"Oh." Lian Jun smiled, "Maybe I had fun. Mr. Gu came to me just to ask where Xingcheng is? Then maybe... I can't help you."

"I actually want to find you too."

Gu Heng said, pausing for a while, "You may also know why I came to you. Even the fund suddenly wanted to withdraw its capital. We were very passive... The two sides actually talked for a long time in the early stage."

Lian Jun nodded with a serious look on his face, "What Mr. Gu said is indeed true, it was a bit sudden. However, something happened to Gu's consciousness bracelet, which caused you to be covered in negative news and the stock price plummeted. We are indeed very embarrassed. .”

"In fact, the stock price didn't fall that much at the beginning. The big drop was after you withdrew your capital...Even the fund is like this, which is even worse for us..."

"This... I'm really sorry. I was about to sign the contract, but it's a pity to catch up with an accident." Lian Jun said helplessly, "Although I am the manager of this fund, the money is not the same. I voted alone, and there are other partners, and I need to be responsible for them. So..."

There are indeed other partners, but in fact there are only three in total, including him and Lin Xingcheng.

Gu Heng: "I know your background is very mysterious, you should have some decision-making power, and other partners, please help me communicate..."

On the negotiating table in the shopping mall, Gu Heng has almost never spoken in such a low voice.But with the current situation and today's experience, his former vigor has completely disappeared.

Lian Jun blinked and smiled: "Mr. Gu checked my old background very clearly. But... I'm really sorry. Mr. Gu should go back. I know your time is precious now, so I don't want to waste your time."

After speaking, he stood up, "I'll take you out."

"Wait!" Gu Heng suddenly said.

Lian Jun leaned on the table and smiled slightly, "Is there anything else Mr. Gu can do?"

"I know you have a very good relationship with Xingcheng. He... We were good classmates before." Gu Heng had to move out Lin Xingcheng's card, "I took him in when he was down and out. In this case, we He's also considered a friend of a friend, so can you take it for his sake..."

"Ah, is that so?" Lian Juan said in surprise, "So you and Xingcheng have such a good relationship."

Gu Heng blinked slightly, "...well. I originally brought him a gift today, but I couldn't get in touch."

Lian Jun raised his eyebrows, "What about the gift?"

"The gift... was robbed."

Lian Jun was even more surprised: "Who even dared to snatch Mr. Gu's gift, Mr. Gu was robbed of something, did you call the police?"

Gu Heng shook his head, "Some cash, it's okay. Those people ran away on a motorcycle. Don't mention it."

However, Lian Jun still asked: "Cash, how much cash, I didn't expect such an old-fashioned thing like stealing money to happen today. No, what happened outside my stadium, I must call the police first. Mr. Gu, wait a moment."

Gu Heng hurriedly said: "Don't be too busy, it's only 20, let's talk about investment first."

"20? Are you going to give Lin Xingcheng 20?" Lian Jun was even more surprised, "Mr. Gu...you are so generous."

The market value dropped by 200 billion in a few days, and asked Lin Xingcheng for help with 20?

Gu Heng: "...I just want to buy him some clothes or something. When I went to the mall with him that time, he didn't like any of them."

"Well... so that's how it is." Lian Jun smiled, "Mr. Gu is bothering about Xingcheng. Well, I actually have a piece of clothing here, which can be given to Mr. Gu."

As Lian Jun said, he got up and came to the closet next to the wall, opened the closet and took out a set of clothes, and put them on the table in front of Gu Heng: "See if you like it?"

Gu Heng looked at the "clothes".

Lian Jun: "I bought it from the Internet yesterday. I carefully selected it for a long time. It has spots, a tail, and a dog's head. It's also very cute..."

Faced with this Dalmatians cosplay props, Gu Heng's face suddenly changed, "What... do you mean?"

"I like Dalmatians, but it's a pity that I don't have the time to raise them, so Mr. Gu is willing to imitate them for me, and I may consider not withdrawing the investment." Lian Jun said, touching the tail of the prop, "This fur feels so good, it suits you .”

Gu Heng's lips trembled slightly, he opened and closed, but he didn't say anything.

Lian Jun admired the expression of the person in front of him, and said with a smile: "Mr. Gu thinks this scene is a bit familiar. He once did the same thing to Lin Xingcheng, right. Mr. Gu is really a person who likes small animals, and so do I."

Gu Heng's face turned pale, "...how did you know?"

"Gu's head office has several 10 people in the league. There should be quite a few people who know that you like small animals." Lian Jun touched his chin, "Puppy dogs are actually very cute."

"Does it have to be like this?"

"It's not mandatory. It's okay if Mr. Gu doesn't like it. I'll send you out..."

After two seconds of silence, Gu Heng said again, "If I put it on, you won't withdraw your capital."

"I will seriously consider it, I should, I won't disappoint you?" Lian Jun said, looking at the spotted suit, "Mr. Gu, do you want to try it now?"

Three seconds later, Gu Heng stretched out his hand, trembling slightly when his fingertip touched the spot, "I hope you don't break your promise."

Lian Jun smiled, "How could that be?"

Gu Heng took a breath and picked up the suit.

People are like this sometimes, until the last moment, they never know how soft their bones can be.
