Gu Nianyi followed him out of the elevator: "...then why did you help him take the blame?"

"Officer Gu, I don't think you can experience this feeling." Xu Luo took the key and opened the door, and the house was still deserted.

"Change your shoes." Xu Luo brought him a pair of disposable slippers.

"How does it feel?" Gu Nianyi asked.

Xu Luo changed his shoes by himself, turned on the air conditioner, and the room became more comfortable.He took off his coat, with a short sleeve inside, Gu Nianyi saw the scars on his thin white arms.

It seems that after Gu Nianyi met him once, Xu Luo stopped covering him up.

Those traces of skin deposited on his arms were in stark contrast to his fair and beautiful face.

After watching it for a while, he felt that his appearance just now was a little impulsive.

Could it be that Wu Li brought these scars that Xu Luo covered up on weekdays?

"I guess I told you that you don't understand." Xu Luo held two bottles of beer between his fingers, put them on the table, and teased him in a relaxed tone, "Little brat~"

"..." Gu Nianyi glared at him.

"Drink, little brat?" Xu Luo opened the bottle cap directly with his teeth, but such a sturdy action was quite beautiful to him, and it was done in one go.

The bottle caps were left on a small plate in front of the refrigerator, and a lot had accumulated.

"Don't drink, I don't even know you stabbed me tonight if I drank it." Gu Nianyi said.

"Look, that's why you're a child." Xu Luo pinched the wine bottle with his left hand, and looked at him with a smile on his head with his right hand, "While saying that he didn't believe me, he exposed such an important thing as drinking capacity to me , so do you really hate me?"

Gu Nianyi held back his breath and slapped the table with one hand with a serious expression on his face: "Can you be serious! Talk about the case! Don't have anything to do with me here!"

He paused, feeling a little impotent and furious just now, touched his nose: "Aren't you talking about Wu, Wuli?"

"He didn't have anything to say. A few years before his death, he obviously didn't care about me, so I moved back to live in Baijin." Xu Luo said, "My classmate opened a psychological counseling institution, and I work in his institution, and the salary is not bad. .In fact, the year Wu Li died, I had already figured out a lot..."

He pinched the body of the bottle with his fingers, leaned his head on it, his voice was a little procrastinated and lazy, with a self-deprecating smile: "I know I'm sick, but I can't let him go. He will scare me when he calls When I deliberately avoided him that year, he would also fully grasp my whereabouts, suddenly appear and take me away, and lock me up like before."

"I'm keeping you locked up, you won't call the police, won't you run away..." Gu Nianyi said.

"Run away, and I'm not as obedient as I was a few years ago, maybe because he realized that I was a little different from before, he started to try to use drugs or du///products to control me..." Xu Luo said There seems to be some lingering fear here, "So in order to behave obediently, I dare not take any more aggressive actions. I know that if one day I am really controlled by him with drugs, I will be finished, and no one can save me..."

Unknowingly said a lot, Gu Nianyi couldn't digest the amount of information in his words, so he opened his mouth slightly with a dull look on his face.

"Did it scare you?" Xu Luo raised his head, and looked at him with a smile on his face, "We have such a sick relationship."

"Then...are you alright now?" Gu Nianyi asked cautiously.

Xu Luo shook his head, tilted his eyes to the other side, avoided the question, and just replied: "Lv Fan's case is essentially a kind of 'behavior control'. Although it looks a little abnormal, it is a kind of The simplest, crude, low-level but effective control method, if artificial control cannot achieve their goals, the next step is 'drug control'."

He tapped the table with his fingernails, making Gu Nianyi focus.

"In that basement, there are about seven or eight people, all men and women raised by Pei Junwen. They should live in it, but their freedom is not restricted. Pei Junwen doesn't treat them as human beings, he gives them xi/// control their bodies." Xu Luo gritted his teeth, "Pei Junwen must have thought about this when he planned this area. He has a criminal record, so he should have planned it this way on purpose. So it's a pity that those people were so quick at that time. was transferred."

"What is Pei Junwen doing raising them?" Gu Nianyi couldn't understand, "du//The products are so expensive, and you can't go out if you raise seven or eight of them crowded together. The money won't really depend on his bar business, he... "

"He doesn't just close it, he should use them for other businesses, such as producing//drugs, such as selling//yin, do you think Pei Junwen really wants to have anything to do with them? I can even guess Pei Junwen What kind of words did you use to confuse them." Xu Luo said, "That's another story, so if you don't come that day, I guess I..."

Xu Luo didn't continue.

"..." Gu Nianyi sighed, "But why does he know you?"

"He knew Wu Li, and the people in Wu Li's circle were very good at playing this kind of 'manipulation'. It took me a long time to figure out that this method can continuously control people, because no matter what you are in What class, what position, what family..." Xu Luo murmured, "Poverty and wealth, kindness or cunning, psychological manipulation and control, seem to be false propositions, but are actually a truth that has been experienced for a long time and has been honed over a long period of time. Theory. It's real, it permeates every corner of us."

Gu Nianyi listened intently: "Psychological manipulation..."

"Then why did you go to Professor Lu Fan?" Gu Nianyi leaned forward and asked him, "You said you met Lu Fan once..."

"I'm not lying. I did listen to Professor Lu Fan's class before, but I didn't know he was involved in the 'experiment'. I didn't know that Lu Fan was involved until I told you that I saw the photo of the party. This is the person, Wu Li's former mentor." Xu Luo said.

"So you plan to find him." Gu Nianyi said, "You were arranged to meet him in the hospital, but I don't understand, what happens after you find him?"

"I hope that as a survivor of the experiment, he can announce the contents and secrets of this experiment to the world." Xu Luo said, "If he dies, it will be difficult to find the next survivor, but he is really dead. Before contacting him..."

"Do you think this case is tricky?" Gu Nianyi asked.

"I don't know, it's hard to say, maybe it's just a coincidence, it's my bad luck." Xu Luo lowered his eyes.

"Is there any other information about their experiment?" Gu Nianyi remembered the inexplicable number Lu Fan left at the scene, and the two locators in the watch, "For example, the number left at the scene."

"I don't know." Xu Luo shook his head, "If I knew, I should have told you by now."

He said in a deep voice, squinting his eyes: "Besides, I have always suspected... Wu Li's death was not accidental."

Gu Nianyi took a breath when he heard the words.

"...He might have been murdered. I don't think he is such a powerful person... He died for no reason on the way to escape? He was shot before and didn't die..." Xu Luo said here, with an expression on his face There was a short pause in confusion, as if caught in a memory, "I can't figure it out..."

As he said that, he returned to God and said, "But you know, he committed a heinous crime back then, and no one would pursue this matter deeply."

Xu Luo slowly got down on the cold marble of the bar counter, poking his pointed chin at the table and smiling: "Maybe I was overthinking it, it was really an accident."

"Professor Lu Fan is also dead, who else is left in the experiment?" Gu Nianyi asked, "Is that Pei Junwen?"

"No." Xu Luo lay on his stomach, stretched out a hand and shook it, "He just learned some superficial tricks. Imprisoning people and controlling those women and children who are unable to fight back with drugs is the lowest and most indecent. Means. I think those people in Wuli are disdainful..."

Gu Nianyi said, "Then your bastard..."

"Don't talk about him, let's talk about it later." Xu Luo slapped the table and sat up, and said, "Are you hungry, order a takeaway? To celebrate your...suspension?"

Gu Nianyi was very irritable when he said this: "..."

Xu Luo didn't know if he felt his irritability. After drinking two bottles of beer, he was obviously in a good mood. He didn't bother to ask Gu Nianyi for advice, so he ordered a few dishes, turned around and took out two bottles of beer from the refrigerator.

Seeing this, Gu Nianyi waved his hand again and said, "...I won't drink if I tell you."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Luo lowered his head and pried open a bottle, and said inexplicably, "...No one told you to drink it, so don't be sentimental."

"..." Gu Nianyi was speechless, his handsome face was distorted, "You can really drink..."

Just now, I still felt sorry for Xu Luo, but when I turned around, I felt that this person was bad.After Xu Luo finished ordering, he said to Gu Nianyi, "Captain Wang obviously didn't want to suspend you, he wanted to keep you out of it for the time being, if you are really suspended, can you still carry your mobile phone with you?"

He shook his head: "It's too casual, I guess the suspension approval report hasn't been filed yet, so I'll count it as a leave of absence for you."

"I know, but I don't know when I can go back." Gu Nianyi scratched his hair, "It's really annoying, this is a critical moment."

"Soon, within a week at most, the bureau wants to reorganize this case, because it is obviously more complicated." Xu Luo said, "As for me... the calculation system will end in a week at most, and now I can The name is justified, and Pei Junwen's name is put in."

"Not enough." Gu Nianyi said, "We don't have enough evidence, and there is no way to obtain legal evidence now. What is the use in the calculation system?"

The two fell silent again.

"Actually, I'm quite worried about those locked up, and I don't know what they're going through now." Xu Luo shrugged and smiled, looking a little lonely under the light, "I'm not a kind person, but seeing them locked up , I always think of myself. That kind of uncomfortable feeling that I can't escape... Others can't understand it, and they will definitely ask, you have a hundred ways to escape, why don't you run?"

Xu Luo shook his head: "It's hard for me to explain, do you understand?"

He took a sip of wine, looked far away and said, "I have a friend who is a criminal lawyer in Baijin. He once showed me a similar case. After a man and his wife were arrested, they raised four children in his house." A female college student, when the police went to arrest them, they were sitting together watching TV harmoniously in the room. His wife, because of infertility, gave the first girl who came here to use drugs to be his man's lover When she was arrested, the girl said that she also thought about calling the police, but ironically, two years later, the last girl was her old classmate who tricked her in...the five of them lived together and went in and out of the room every day. It was only revealed after the suspected group rented a report.”

"Because of this kind of case, the reason why you think it's absurd is that you can't empathize with the victim, but just when you feel empathy, it's often the beginning of this kind of control." Xu Luo shook his head, closed his eyes and took another sip of wine .

Just when the phone rang, he glanced at Gu Nianyi and answered, "Hello?"

"You want to scare me to death!" the other party yelled, "Are you okay! Where's the idiot policeman!!"

The voice was so loud that it was like a hands-free speaker. Gu Nianyi, who was drinking water, paused for a moment, then frowned and said, "...you idiot? Me?"

Li Xi said: "Why are there voices next to you?"

"Because the stupid policeman is here." Xu Luo glanced at his fingers.

Gu Nianyi: "..."

"Oh, he's at your house? Damn, you actually let him go home with you." Li Xi said, "You don't want to see him as young, so what about him? Are you old and you like young... ..."

Gu Nianyi could hear it clearly, holding the cup in his hands, his hands had veins all over the back.

Xu Luo sighed, "What do you want from me?"

"Chou Hu told me all about your thrilling night." Li Xi's tone didn't mean to be joking, "If you're really bored, you can go back to Baijin and help me make money."

"No..." Xu Luo said, "Pei Junwen recognized me, he is 100% related to Wu Li."

"But the man is gone now, what about you? How are you doing now?" Li Xi said, "Qiu Hu has been undercover for so long and has not found anything. You can imagine how difficult this man is. Are you delusional?" It's hard to do it with two little policemen."

Xu Luo curled her lips, watched Gu Nianyi take a pack of cigarettes, raised her hand and pushed the ashtray in front of her, and said, "Give me some more time."

"This is your business. I just care about you. I'm afraid that something will happen to you." Li Xi said.

"Thank you for your concern." Xu Luo laughed, just as a call came in, "Ah, my takeaway is here."

"It's so late, why don't you eat supper? Then you can eat." Li Xi said, "I'll be free in a few days, and I will go to Heixi with Lawyer Lin to see you."

"Okay." Xu Luo said, "Goodbye."

He hung up the phone, went to the door to get takeaway, and when he came back, he saw Gu Nianyi staring at him.

"What are you looking at?" Xu Luo spread the things on the table, untied the plastic bag with his fingers, but did not undo it.

Seeing this, Gu Nianyi took it over, tore it apart roughly, and said, "Just now...a friend?"

"Yeah." Xu Luo said, "Bai Jin's friend."

Gu Nianyi didn't speak, but Xu Luodao took the initiative to mention: "...After Wu Li's death, at least the past few years have been happy, because I have met many friends, they are all good people, and they tried their best to help me out of the predicament. And these People, some are quite similar to you..."

"Me?" Gu Nianyi was stunned.

"Although you are quite stupid." Xu Luo blinked slowly, looking at him under the light, "but you are a good policeman."
