born criminal

The dark room was extremely gloomy, Yangzhou dared not fall asleep, afraid of dreaming about that distant ghost again.It has a young and handsome skin and the most ferocious expression. It is Daniel, the devil who eats his blood and soul.

The shameful joy not long ago is still lingering in my heart, it seems that there are two forces in the body fighting and competing, and the fight is fierce.Of course it was the demon who had the upper hand, but another weak voice continued to resist, it longed for the company of others, and hoped for intimacy.

Should you be ashamed or happy?

Yang Zhou turned over on the bed.The moonlight was dim, and the night seemed endless.The gray mist-like wall on the opposite side looked like a man-eating swamp after looking at it for a long time.

Gradually, a black shadow emerged from the swamp. It twisted, kneaded and pulled by an invisible hand, and gradually evolved into a human shape, peeling off from the wall.

It's it!

Yang Zhou's nerves stretched to the limit in an instant, he rolled his Adam's apple, and closed his eyes tightly amidst the violent heartbeat.

This is the only thing he fears in this world.Yangzhou has not been entangled by it for a long time since he used drugs to suppress his desire.But it lives in the bottom of my heart, like a shadow, once it senses that he is emotional, it will jump out and viciously destroy everything beyond recognition.

The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, as if something cold and from hell was approaching step by step.where is it?Are you standing by the bed, staring down at yourself with hole-like eyes?

Yang Zhou clenched the bed sheet tightly, desperately realizing that the world is so big, but there is no way to avoid it.He suddenly had the courage to throw all his eggs in one bet, gasped for breath, and opened his eyes suddenly.

No, nothing.

The ceiling is dotted with a few dim fluorescent stars, the walls are plain, and the bedroom is still like a dark jungle, and the black shadow seems to have never appeared.

Yang Zhou exhaled intermittently and turned on the bedside lamp.He rested for a while, then went to the drinking fountain in the corner to pour a glass of warm water.

In the silent night, suddenly there was a "dong dong" knock on the door.Yang Zhou couldn't tell if it was a hallucination, subconsciously clenched his water glass tightly, and stared vigilantly in the direction of the door.

"Yangzhou, are you asleep?" It was Chen Jian's voice, magnetic and clear in the quiet environment.

Yang Zhou put down his water glass and was silent for a while, not knowing whether he should respond or not.It is obviously not a wise decision to stay in the same room with Chen Jian late at night.But... After experiencing the scene just now, he really wanted to have more breath of life in the room.

While hesitating, Yangzhou heard slight, leaving footsteps.

"What's the matter?" He asked eagerly.

Chen Jian froze for a moment, confirmed that there was indeed a voice coming from inside, and replied, "I'll just ask you. It seems that your condition was not very good before."

Yang Zhou hesitated for two seconds, then walked over and opened the door of the suite.Standing in the middle of the corridor, Chen Jian was yawning halfway, but he stopped abruptly when he saw him, and there was a little sparkle in his eyes.

He smiled at Yangzhou: "Want to chat?"

Staying up late at night... Is this person guilty or worried?Surrounded by an awkward warmth, Yangzhou asked lightly, "What are you talking about?"

Chen Jian shrugged nonchalantly: "Your illness."

Yangzhou's face darkened, and his voice was dry: "I'm not sick."

"What kind of medicine do you take if you are not sick? Children know the truth." Chen Jian leaned close to him, forcing Yang Zhou to push his shoulder with his palm.There seemed to be an invisible spring between them, and after stretching several times, it was finally fixed at a position not too far away.

For a moment, Yangzhou really wanted to confess everything, wanted to tell him about the 20-year-long nightmare, all the pain and struggles he had endured, but this thought was fleeting, and finally failed to cross the layers of heart walls.

After all, who was he?

Yangzhou has always been very defensive. Half of this is due to his professional habits as a policeman, and the other half is due to his personality.After arriving at the base, he contacted his parents and friends, always avoiding Chen Jian.But isn't Chen Jian the same?He looks honest, isn't the important plan still hidden from him?

The weak light from the bedside lamp in the bedroom spread to each other, and they exchanged a dull look. Chen Jian suddenly sighed wistfully: "Today is New Year's Eve."

He pushed Yang Zhou's arm away, came to the two single sofas at the door, and sat down very naturally.

Yang Zhou was stunned for a moment, then closed the door.

Judging by his posture, will he leave in a while.Yang Zhou inexplicably felt lighthearted, and even being in this dim room was a little bit amiable.

The single sofa was very narrow, Chen Jian twisted his legs uncomfortably, then took out a pack of modern cigarettes from his pocket, and shook Yang Zhou, "Do you want it?"

He knew that Yangzhou didn't smoke, so he just asked politely, but he didn't expect Yangzhou to nod his head.

Chen Jian shook out two cigarettes, took out a lighter from his pocket, and took out a mini ashtray under Yangzhou's astonished gaze.

Yang Zhou sat down next to him, held a cigarette between his fingers and asked Chen Jian to light it, and persuaded without sincerity: "You should smoke less."

"It's okay." Chen Jian said, "I guess I won't live long."

When the cigarette was lit, Yang Zhou put it in his mouth, Chen Jian pressed his shoulder to prevent him from getting up, and then moved over with the cigarette in his mouth.

One second, two seconds, a faint red light flashed.

Yang Zhou lowered his eyelashes, and his expressionless face also had a kind of cold look.For some unknown reason, Chen Jian suddenly sprayed a puff of smoke at him.Yang Zhou raised his eyes to stare at him, his glass-like eyes rolled, as if the beauty in the mural had come to life, looking bright in an instant.

Chen Jian raised his hand to touch his face, Yang Zhou turned his head reflexively, and the soft and delicate touch disappeared instantly.

The two were silent for a while, and each leaned on the sofa and finished smoking.

Chen Jian's joking "I don't think I'll live long" just now echoed in Yangzhou's mind. He felt uneasy, and asked tentatively, "Do you really want the No. [-] base to be independent?"

"Did you make a mistake?" Chen Jian glanced at him lazily, and said with a smile, "I should be the one to torture you now." He turned to Yang Zhou, looked carefully for a while, and then asked him if he would join What an ascetic evil religion.

His tone was somewhere between seriousness and joking, Yangzhou felt his chest tight when he heard it, and he whispered no after a while.

Chen Jian gave a clear "um" and asked again: "Have you been raped?"

His words were so straightforward that people were shocked, Yang Zhou bit his lower lip, his eyes were completely darkened.He scratched the sofa with his left hand, trying to hold something to find a sense of security, but unfortunately the sofa was made of leather, so smooth it was hopelessly smooth.At this moment, a sigh came from beside him, and then his trembling fingertips were wrapped in a warm palm.

"Who is it?" Looking at Yang Zhou's reaction, Chen Jian believed in this guess.He felt like a fire-breathing dragon, but he had to worry about the other party's emotions and suppressed it, "Tell me, I must have cut him."

Yang Zhou didn't speak, Chen Jian felt distressed, and the anger that had no place to vent poured out towards him, "Isn't he good at fighting, what happened..."

He was as irritable as a red-blooded boss in the game, Yang Zhou looked at him blankly first, then smiled helplessly, "No."

Chen Jian's tense muscles finally showed signs of relaxing. He stared at Yangzhou for a moment, let out a heavy gasp from his nasal cavity, and asked persistently, "Why is that?"

Yangzhou's Adam's apple twitched, his tongue seemed to froze, and he only uttered a vague "Don't ask."

Chen Jian didn't force him.It's good for Yang Zhou to say it himself, but it's a human instinct to avoid pain, so he can't be harsh on Yang Zhou.Anyway, he has asked Eric to help with the investigation, and it's not too late.

"What about you?" Yang Zhou withdrew his hand and turned the topic back to him, "Do you really want the base to be independent?"

"Yes." Chen Jian's tone seemed to be talking about dinner, "No?"

"You..." Yang Zhou paused for a long time, "Don't do that."

Regarding his objection, Chen Jian was not surprised: "I knew you would say that."

Base No. [-] does not have the conditions to become a country at all, Yangzhou does not believe that Chen Jian will not see such a simple fact.How could the base become an independent country without its own territory, army, or even a sound economic foundation?

Seeing his indifference, Yangzhou couldn't help but get a little angry, "Do you think independence can be achieved by saying a slogan? Even if independence is declared, how long can you sustain it? The United Nations will sanction you, and no country is willing to establish diplomatic relations with you. The base will be besieged on all sides! Even if you have some advanced genetic weapon in your hand, how long can you maintain your advantage? There are so many scientists out there, and they will soon find a way to restrain you, and by then—”

Yang Zhou felt that he couldn't hold back his emotions, so he coughed twice.

Chen Jian looked at him with focused and gentle eyes, but said: "Do you know why you are annoying?"

"I know." Yang Zhou twitched his lips, "Because I'm always right."

"No." Chen Jian said, "Because you are too sensible."

"Isn't it rational?" Yang Zhou frowned, his ivory skin turned into a nearly transparent cold white under the light, his brows and eyes were frosty, and there was a faint affection hidden in his indifference, which suddenly reminded Chen Jian of Changju in fairy tales. The god of the snow mountain.He is lofty, compassionate, clean and holy, but Chen Jian is always impulsive and wants to drag him down into the world of mortals.

Seeing that Chen Jian was staring at him silently, Yangzhou couldn't figure out what he was thinking for a while, so he talked about the issue of the independence of the No. [-] base.

"Even if the residents support you now, they will definitely regret it when the base is truly independent. Industry, service industry, and manufacturing industry, none of you can serve as the economic lifeline to support an independent country at present, and they are no match for the economic sanctions of the United Nations. At that time, supermarkets and stores will be empty, and even basic life cannot be guaranteed. People who support you will definitely turn to the United Nations. They will hate you and betray you. It has been recognized by a small number of countries, and the economy has gradually developed, but a modern country must be a democratic country, so your rule... will definitely be overthrown one day."

Chen Jian heard him say a long paragraph, and replied lightly: "So what?"

"You're taking a risk!" Yang Zhou said angrily, "And you're bringing more than 2 people from the base with you!"

Chen Jian took out another cigarette, crushed it with his fingertips, fiddled with the thin shreds of tobacco, and said: "The law does not punish the public, and they will be fine."

This time the silence was long and difficult.

In the end, Yang Zhou asked in a low voice, "What about you?"

"Didn't you analyze everything clearly?" Chen Jian smiled freely, with a somewhat tragic meaning in it.

There was a buzzing in Yang Zhou's ear, and he looked at Chen Jian in disbelief, the first time he looked at him so carefully and solemnly.He never knew that there was a heroic soul in that body.

"You said reason is right." Chen Jian had exhausted the scourge of cigarettes, so he had no choice but to play with the lighter.He tossed it up in the air, caught it firmly, and said—"But there are many things that are true. Like dreams, liberty, equality, like love."

free.This makes all Yang Zhou's excuses look pale.

He tried in vain to convince Chen Jian: "Separation from the United Nations will not bring you freedom, but it will make natural-born criminals more disadvantaged. Just wait, the "Segregation Act" will eventually be repealed."

Chen Jian sneered: "How long will we have to wait? It's been 30 years, my dear Yang Zhou."

It has been a long time since Yang Zhou was ridiculed by him like this.He tried his best to persuade calmly: "Rose faction is gaining power now, try harder to push—"

Chen Jian interrupted him impatiently: "Hasn't this kind of situation happened before? But every time it's "almost", "almost"! Do you think I don't know what Rose Pie is thinking?"

Both of them were emotional and confronted each other without giving an inch.The more Yang Zhou said, the more anxious he became: "The quality of life in the base has been improved with great difficulty. Do you insist on bringing everyone back to the era when supplies were scarce?"

"Be nice to the dog, just want him to forget that he is also a human?"

At that moment, Yangzhou was really going crazy, and he slapped him suddenly: "You know that's not what I meant!"

The night was like a mirror, shattered by that earth-shattering sound.Chen Jian clenched his fists and stood up, standing in front of Yang Zhou like a hill, looking at him murderously.

Yang Zhou arched his body slightly, ready to fight, but he heard Chen Jian gritted his teeth and asked, "Then what do you mean?"

The bitterness from the tip of the tongue spread to the eye sockets, which is obviously very unreasonable, but Yangzhou has such an illusion.He took a very light breath, feeling very tired, "It's not interesting."

Chen Jian looked down at him for a moment, then gradually loosened his fist.The light was chasing after him, the darkness spread in front of him, and Yangzhou was wrapped around him like a cloak.

"Those who celebrate Chinese New Year shouldn't say these things." Chen Jian smiled, and he didn't know who he was blaming, his tone was extremely gentle.

"Hey," he patted the back of Yangzhou's hand lightly, "how about a kiss?"
