Gu Nianyi was a little dizzy, and could only change his pants with his back to him. He felt that he was dressed like a fugitive from a mental hospital. His dirty pants were taken off, but Gu Nianyi still didn't dare to sit on his bed.

Embarrassed, he quickly charged his phone and looked at his dead screen.

"Ahem..." Xu Luo coughed twice, Gu Nianyi tilted his head and poured water for him.

Xu Luo came over and took two sips with his hand, holding the bottom of the cup with his fingers.

Gu Nianyi couldn't help but saw his wrist again, he raised his hand hanging in the air and dared not put it down, and asked as calmly as possible: "...Did you cut the wrist yourself?"

"Yes." Xu Luo patted the bed again, "Come up."

"No need." Gu Nianyi shook his head.

"Did you...don't hurt?" He finally couldn't help asking, as if his brain couldn't control his limbs at that time, he finally covered his wrist, and his fingers slowly moved down along his wrist, "... ...If you really died inside at that time..."

"You're thinking too much, I didn't intend to commit suicide. If I don't bleed, the police might never find me." Xu Luo said, "Sit up, it's okay."

Gu Nianyi still sat on the edge of the bed, and digested what he just said in a short time.

"...What kind of logic is this? We have asked to search for signs of life, and we also have police dogs. You can dig them out three feet underground. Why do you think I can't find you in the small compartment?" Gu Nian Yi said this in a hurry, and felt more and more that his guess was possible. Xu Luo just wanted to commit suicide. He heaved his chest and said, "Do you know the danger of doing this?"

"..." Xu Luo smiled and said, "You want to stay with me today because you want to tell me this?"

He looked at his wrist: "I thought you came to ask me who kidnapped you when I saw it that night."

Of course Gu Nianyi wanted to ask, he wanted to ask this question the first time he saw Xu Luo.But when he saw his wrist, he swallowed these words again. He didn't want to admit that now he was more worried about Xu Luo than the case itself.

It's not right, it shouldn't be.

He never cared which side of his brain he used to think about problems, but now he clearly felt that his rationality was being continuously compressed, which made him give up thinking, which seemed strange.

He even wanted to find out if Xu Luo wanted to kill himself.

Xu Luo was calmer than he thought, even indifferent. He looked at his arm expressionlessly, as if he didn't care: "Or have you forgotten about it?"

"I haven't forgotten... It's just that it's useless for me to know the answer now." Gu Nianyi lowered his head, and slowly leaned his face against the cold pole at the head of the bed, "I still remember, you seem to have something to say to me."

Xu Luo looked up at him, his delicate and small features were as gentle as melted butter against the light of the bedside lamp.

But his expression soon became dull, and then he lowered his eyes to look at his arm, Gu Nianyi was holding his arm with one hand, with his head down, he couldn't see his expression clearly, then his other hand came up and grabbed it in the same way. Hold Xu Luo's hand.

Only then did Xu Luo feel that his palms were scorching hot, like they were on fire.

"I thought I'd never see you again." Gu Nianyi's hands trembled, his voice was full of uncontrollable gasps, and he could hear fear, threat and grievance, "When I picked you up from the floor, , you were motionless at the time, your hands were covered with blood, and the wound on your arm hadn't stopped bleeding. I thought you were going to die..."

Xu Luo had messy long hair on his forehead, his face was calm, the shadows of his eyelashes were under his eyes, and his hands stayed in the air.He didn't pull back his hand, feeling that Gu Nianyi's words didn't match his words, and he said something that was completely different from his previous image.

He seemed like a child who was overwhelmed and on the verge of collapse.

"I was locked up and interrogated for an entire afternoon. My master was not there, and I couldn't go home. I couldn't change my clothes and my phone didn't have battery..." Gu Nianyi grabbed his hands, but his face was pressed against the cold railing. He rubbed his forehead against the railing, "I've been regretting it all the time. If I had a chance, I would definitely not have dinner with you last night. I don't understand why it was me?..."

He murmured: "...and why is it you."

Xu Luo pulled his hand away, and Gu Nianyi's hand fell heavily on the bed.He stared at the front without focus, his mind was in a mess.It took a while to feel Xu Luo's hand holding his forehead, the cool and comfortable feeling, and he heard Xu Luo whisper: "...Do you have a fever?"

"No." Gu Nianyi immediately denied.

There was a thermometer next to Xu Luo's bed, and he measured it against Gu Nianyi. It was 37 degrees 4, which is indeed a low-grade fever.

"..." Xu Luo put the things back on the bed, and just as he turned to go back, Gu Nianyi sat up slowly, and then took advantage of the situation to stand up.

"Where are you going?" Xu Luo said.

"Going back." Gu Nianyi lost his energy, "I still have a lot of things to do..."

"It's almost early morning, and you still have a low fever." Xu Luo said, "The police are guarding outside, they must know that you are here, if you want to let you go back, go back early, the city bureau is so chaotic, don't leave."

"..." Gu Nianyi shook his head.

He knew he couldn't be here, he was weird, and not just because he was a little hot.

Xu Luo's tone was cold and tough all night: "If you insist on leaving, then go."

He lifted the quilt: "I'll go with you."

"..." Gu Nianyi turned his head to look at him, and found that Xu Luo didn't seem to be joking, and was already preparing to get out of bed after speaking.Gu Nianyi panicked when he saw it, and turned back: "What are you doing out of bed? Go back and lie down."

"If you dare to go out, I dare to follow you." Xu Luo smiled, "How about it, do you want to try?"

"Okay, I'm not leaving... Then what about this case." Gu Nianyi said.

"Are you the only one in your serious crime team?" Xu Luo reached out and grabbed him by the collar, and shook him like a chicken, pushing him to the bed, "One hour is rest, two hours It's also a rest, you sleep for a while."

"I'm dirty..." Before Gu Nianyi finished speaking, Xu Luo was already lying on one side, pulling him down by his collar again.If I hadn't seen him dying more than ten hours ago, I really couldn't imagine where he got so much strength.

Gu Nianyi was dragged by him and had to prop up the bed with his hands and kneel on top.

"I'll go with you at dawn." Xu Luo approached him and patted his face, "You'd better wake me up and be prepared to continue fighting this case. I won't say anything tonight and have a good rest. You need to rest now."

"Go to sleep." Xu Luo sighed, "Good night."

Gu Nianyi's face sank into the pillow, he looked at Xu Luo and said angrily, "I'm sorry...I don't know what's wrong with me."

"..." Xu Luo didn't speak, turned his back to him and turned off the light.

Gu Nianyi began to have persistent nightmares that night, he slept so deeply that he couldn't wake up at all, he was dreaming dreams within dreams, and the alternating hot and cold dreams made him feel that his whole body was soaked in magma and frozen and pulled back and forth.Even though he knew it was time to wake up, his body seemed to sink into a deeper and muddier place.

Then he seemed to hear Xu Luo's voice. Xu Luo was right in front of him, facing him, hugging him tenderly, and whispering something in his ear.Gu Nianyi couldn't hear clearly, but he let go of his hand, and Xu Luo left his arms, fell into the abyss in front of him, and was never seen again.

"!!——"

Gu Nianyi let out a long cough, and then jumped up from the bed: "Ahem, cough——"

It was already bright, and the whole room was covered with sunlight. When Gu Nianyi sat up, he found that half of his body was on Xu Luo's side.

He brushed his hair and panted, and gradually began to realize that he and Xu Luo slept in the same bed last night.

awake.

Finally sober.

"Fuck..." Gu Nianyi couldn't believe what he was doing yesterday. He would recall what he said and did yesterday, as well as the words he said when he faced Xu Luo and grabbed the other's hand, the hairs all over his body All stand up.

And Xu Luo... Where's Xu Luo?

"Xu..." Gu Nianyi looked up, only to see someone standing at his door.He was startled at first, but soon after realizing who it was, he must have lost control of his volume: "Master——!"

"Don't yell, don't yell." Wang Cheng came in from the door and waved his hand, "This is the ward, please be quiet."

He still had the same unshaven face, even more scruffy than before, Wang Cheng lost a lot of weight, and these days are probably not easy, he is visibly shriveled.

He sat on the side of the bed, looked around, and sighed pretendingly: "My apprentice still overwhelmed other people's good cabbages..."

"Master!..." Gu Nianyi didn't care about his teasing at all, and stepped forward to squeeze his shoulders with both hands. He was very happy and relaxed all over, "You are back! You don't fucking know about my days How did it go?"

"Can I not come back?" Wang Cheng crossed his feet and folded his arms and said, "Li Tai is a two hundred and five. I knew he was a two hundred and five from the first day I knew him. What happened to him?"

"I was interrogated by him yesterday morning." Gu Nianyi continued to pinch his shoulder, and his mood improved.

"That's right, ai ai ai, take it easy." Wang Cheng said, "Your hands and feet are really heavy."

Gu Nianyi hurriedly asked: "Will you go back to the bureau with me today?"

"Ah." Wang Chengdao, "It should be possible. Tell me about the current state of the case."

"Last night, I didn't know what was going on at the scene. I didn't have time to look at my phone this morning. The good news is that although Li Tai said he was shutting me down, he didn't bother to look for me once." Gu Nianyi said, " Uncle Wei is here, how serious is the calculation system..."

"He can't take care of it. The things he takes on himself must be stressful." Wang Cheng said, "Is there any water to drink? Pour a glass of water for your master."

Gu Nianyi responded and got out of bed to pour a glass of water for Wang Cheng. Just as he walked to a small table beside him, he heard the door open.

He looked up, and it was Xu Luo who had returned.

"Xu Luo." Gu Nianyi wanted to share the news with him immediately, "Master is back..."

"Kang——" Xu Luo just closed the door, took a step back, and hit the door heavily with his heel.His expression tightened, like a cat with its back arched in an instant, watching the room vigilantly.

"Hey, Doctor Xu is here." Wang Cheng stood up and walked towards him, "Good morning, did you sleep well last night?"

Gu Nianyi noticed Xu Luo's abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?"

"What's the matter, Dr. Xu?" Wang Cheng walked in with a smile on his face.

Gu Nianyi seemed to have sensed the subtlety of the atmosphere and the change in Wang Cheng's tone just now.

Xu Luo watched Wang Cheng approaching slowly, and when he was about to reach Gu Nianyi, he raised his hand and pulled Gu Nianyi back, blocking himself in front of him.

"?" Gu Nianyi stood behind him, looked at his ears, and looked at Wang Cheng who was not far away.

Wang Cheng was wearing a black collared T-shirt and black pants, standing against the light in the ward.

Gu Nianyi inexplicably felt his heart beating very fast, because he suddenly remembered that the last time he saw this expression on Xu Luo's face was the night before yesterday when he closed his eyes and saw Xu Luo's last look.

"Master..." Gu Nianyi called out tentatively.

Wang Cheng didn't answer, but there was no smile on his face.
