straight to heaven

Li Yangming's case is very difficult. I am Pei Yanlai's assistant. Although I only work as an assistant and handle trivial matters, I am as tired as a dog.

In the legal profession, if you don't have enough energy, you really can't do it.

More than two weeks passed quickly in a busy schedule, and most of my time was delayed on the road.

For subways, taxis, and even buses, it starts in four or 10 minutes, and there is no upper limit.So much so that when I see the four-wheeled one, I feel frightened from the bottom of my heart.

Under normal circumstances, I would not have any rest time until the Li Yangming case is over.In the legal circle, the working hours of [-] are not common, and the working hours are more than [-].

——Work 24 hours a day, without sleep, seven days a week.

But there are surprises.

This Sunday evening, just as it was getting dark, Xie Yi and I ate a few skewers of roasted kidneys by the roadside, and before we had two mouthfuls of snowflakes, we received a WeChat message.

It is a work group.Pei Yan came to send a notice, saying that it was released at night, and let us go back and have a good rest.

"Grandma's." Xie Yi's drooping eyes widened: "Isn't today April Fool's Day? It's different when you come back from abroad, and you pay attention to combining work and rest."

I was also surprised: "Ancestor. You are not dreaming."

Xie Yi picked up a shiny and plump peanut for me: "Come on, thank your old classmate for me."

"..." I swallowed, "Thank you, old classmate."

As soon as he returned to Dingrun downstairs, he saw a Lexus speeding past him.I subconsciously chased after him, and stopped after taking two steps.

"What are you doing, chasing the car with two legs? It's very dreamy." Xie Yi glanced over and said, "Isn't this Lawyer Pei's car?"

"Yes." Time has passed, he is too fast, I can't even catch up with his back.

Leaving the law firm with my bag, I walked 300 meters in the direction of Lexus.

A fast-moving bicycle sprang out from the alley. The owner was wearing a school uniform and looked like a male high school student.He was driving so fast that he couldn't stop the car when he was turning, and almost ran into me.

He said, "Excuse me."

I also replied: "I'm sorry."

It was his intention to ride too fast, but it was my fault to stand in the middle of the road. No one is innocent, and everyone should apologize.

He and I looked at each other, with a little kindness in embarrassment, and quickly brushed off and rode away.I realized that it was time for me to go, at least it was inappropriate to stand here.

But I don't want to go back to the shared house, where should I spend my time?

It was getting dark, this time it was completely dark.

I looked up and accidentally saw Polaris.Probably the wind was too strong, and the haze was blown away.The light of the building is very dazzling at night.

I walked my mind, letting my muscle memory control my body, walking slowly among the pedestrians coming and going in the capital like a walking corpse that is not very stiff.Even though I was still wearing a decent suit and leather shoes, and I was still carrying a bag on my back, on this evening when I was pardoned from work, I became an outlier among the crowds of social animals, and gained a subtle sense of loss and peace.

Like a not-so-typical homeless man, I finally stopped in front of an archery gym. The name of the store was HART, and it was spray-painted on the door in the form of graffiti. It was full of personality.

This store has a great reputation. I opened the door and walked in. The facilities in the store are excellent, and the environment is also excellent. The owner must have some wealth.

At the front desk was a girl with a cropped head, her name was written on the nameplate, her name was Haiyang, she was no more than 20 years old, and she had a pair of sly and clever eyes.

It seems that I came by accident.When she saw the new guest, she didn't even have time to say hello, she just glanced at it briefly, and then hesitated to speak, and wanted to go inside.

Out of curiosity, I opened my mouth and knocked on the counter twice, asking, "What's wrong?"

She finally turned her head, her eyes glistened, and she explained in a nutshell: "My boss is back, and he is discussing with his friends. Many people are watching."

Lifting her chin at me, she added another sentence: "My boss is awesome! It's a loss if you don't look at it."

Chasing excitement and danger seems to be my instinct.When I came back to my senses, I had followed her to the arena.

Because it was the weekend, there were surprisingly many people. The viewing seats were already full, and there were several circles of spectators around the corridor.Haiyang and I stood at the door, we could only watch from afar.

"Which one is your boss?" I asked.

Haiyang is not tall, jumping up and down: "Oh, I can't see clearly."

I saw that she was struggling, so I patted her on the shoulder: "Follow me."

"Give way."

I led her forward to the front, and she finally raised her chin and pointed to the ring: "That, the one in the vest!"

I looked over, it was a little far away, and I couldn't see the facial features clearly.

The bag behind him slid down for a while when he squeezed into the front row, and the bag strap was hanging loosely on his arm at the moment.It was bumped by someone who passed by behind and easily hit the ground.

There was still my laptop in the bag, and there was a dull and heavy sound when it landed.

Some people around heard the movement and cast meaningless glances at me.

I didn't care about these, and suddenly I grabbed the fence as if my butt was on fire, and my neck was covered with sweat.

It's a moving target.The target car is a one-meter target car developed by the Olympic Games. It has a very low fault tolerance, a majestic appearance, and a uniform and stable driving speed.When an arrow hits the target, there will be an electronic sound to announce the score, and the big screen will also show the picture of the target in the animation.

There were only two people standing on the field.

The one wearing a vest and shorts is the boss, standing in the second lane on the left, with a thin and slender figure, and looks young.

The other is in the second lane on the right, tall, with broad shoulders and long legs, wearing a white short sleeve, with beautiful and fierce arm muscles, and smooth and sexy shoulder and neck lines.

A total of ten arrows, eight arrows have been shot.

I can't see the face or the details clearly, I only know that the boss is leading by a slight advantage of [-] points.

Bows and arrows represented strength and hunting in ancient civilizations.

They were all advanced players. They raised their arms one after another, nocked their arrows, and drew their bows. The bowstrings were as tight as a crescent moon.The moment the arrow shot out, it seemed to tear the vacuum, and there was a short low hum.

The two arrows hit the target back and forth, and the boss's score popped up first.

Haiyang gripped the fence tightly and jumped a few times, "That's great! It's the nine o'clock six ring road!"

Nine point six, very good result.But I couldn't take my eyes off her boss's opponent, so I murmured perfunctorily.

The game was clearly at the point of the match, and I could even hear a few terrified gasps in my ears amidst the loud cheers, but from the beginning to the end, this man was terribly calm, and his eyes never moved from the target, reminding me of the rainforest The poisonous python coiled inside waits for an opportunity to reveal its deadly sharp teeth.

Soon, the picture of his target was displayed on the screen.

Nine seven.

The red light comes on.In the case of only the last arrow, the scores of the two sides reached balance for the first time.

The applause almost knocked the roof off.Haiyang nervously scratched the hard metal with his fingernails, and there were also discussions one after another.

"Damn, it's kind of evil."

"This buddy is aiming at points, right? There is something."

"...It's hard to say, maybe it's just a coincidence."

The crowd of onlookers moved forward involuntarily again, flesh to flesh, almost pushing me out of the auditorium.

After 1 minute, the machine beeps.

The two people off the field once again set up their bows one after the other.

"Help." Haiyang took a deep breath: "I'm so nervous."

I vaguely thought that I was the target of that one on the court, I was too busy to take care of myself, and I didn't have time to respond to her.

When the bowstring is fully drawn, the noise is silent, and the swallowing is harsh.

I stared at a barely visible spot on the arrow's tip and almost forgot to breathe.

But at this critical second, someone's cell phone rang suddenly.The ringtone is very strange, it's a fumbling harmonica, and if you listen carefully, it's a familiar nursery rhyme.

little stars.

Haiyang sighed heavily, his shoulders slumped, and he said dejectedly, "Why are you calling at this time, sir..."

I didn't understand, but the game ended because of this accident.

The boss withdrew his hands, and the string bow was like a stomach bag that had been digested, and the arc deflated again.

He put down his bow, said something, put on his finger gloves and gave his opponent a high-five, and then left in a hurry, fumbling for his phone from his bag.

Haiyang pursed his lips, turned his head, and shouted like a trumpet with his hand: "Okay, okay! Everyone is gone! This is a draw, and we will compete again when we have a chance!"

The surrounding crowd slowly dispersed, and my lungs finally gained room to breathe, and I only heard a piece of sigh.

The crowd gradually moved away, but the man who stayed on the field was taking off his hair tie.

The distance was still far away, and I couldn't see his half-hidden face in the shadows clearly. I could only use the light from the headlights to instinctively chase the small movements of his hands.

He straightened his sweat-drenched hair back casually, bowed his head, pressed it with one hand, and moved his wrist a few times.

Subtle sexy.

——This is Pei Yanlai.

I opened and closed my lips several times, silently calling out his name.

Strange to say.It was completely different from the state when the brain froze and couldn't recognize the person at the reunion. With just one glance at the end, I confirmed his identity.

If I have to ask why I almost didn't recognize him before, it's because nine years is really too long a difference.Whether Pei Yanlai has changed or not, and if he has changed, how much he has changed, I don't know at all, and I don't even dare to guess what he looks like.

As for why I can recognize him now, it is all because I have been obsessed with the past for so long that every detail of the past seems to be vivid in my memory.

The small movements of his wrists overlapped with a certain memory related to him.

Watching his back disappear through the short door downstairs, an inexplicable impulse surged in my chest, hitting my chest with pain.

I didn't have time to think, and ran out with my bag.

Because I was new here, I didn't know anything about the structure of the museum, and I only touched the bathroom after bumping into walls.During the period, I accidentally bumped into the shoulders of a few passers-by, and even the word "sorry" seemed to be squeezed out of my stomach, not very clear.

Regardless of the surprised eyes of passers-by, I rushed into the bathroom in a neatly dressed and rampant manner.

The bathroom is a single room, filled with mist, and the glass partition has just been opened. Pei Yanlai's upper body is bare, with fierce and beautiful muscles, and a short old scar on the side of the waist looks sexy.

Seeing me, he raised his eyebrows slightly, a moment of obvious surprise, which quickly dissipated completely.

Only then did I feel embarrassed, I opened my mouth not knowing what to say, and ran out blushing again.

This way ran to the gate of the archery hall.

Pei Yanlai's body is so attractive to me, and his abdominal muscles are fierce. Waiting at this time is extremely difficult. I was afraid of embarrassment, so I could only squat down and lean against the door to calm my hot breathing.

Twenty minutes later, Pei Yanlai opened the door and came out.

The distance was very close, and he looked at me as soon as he lowered his head.

I was worried that my attitude was not sincere enough, so I waved at him like an idiot: "Pei Lu."

Pei Yanlai looked at me with a weary look on his face. In the short few seconds, I could feel the unexplained gloom in his eyes.

Before I could dig a step deeper, he had already looked away.

He has a calm and handsome face, and his nodding is made elegant: "It's a coincidence that I met here."

I nodded stiffly and said, yes.

I thought he would have something to say, such as asking me why I was here, but he didn't.

"It's not early." He smiled, but his smile was shallow: "I'll go first, you can do whatever you want."

This is not the situation I want to facilitate.

It's a pity that God led me here today, and it ended like this.I have many things I want to say to him, and many questions urgently need to be answered by him, and only he can give the answers.

"and many more."

When Pei Yan came to leave, I quickly grabbed the hem of his clothes.

He lowered his eyes suddenly, his expression was very calm, but I clearly felt that I was locked.

The person is still the same person, but the eyes are completely different.His arm suddenly exerted strength, and the line on the side of the neck became deeper because of this, and I was almost staggered.

Fortunately, I gripped tightly, and my clothes were pulled into a straight line like a tug-of-war hemp rope.

But the stalemate didn't last long, and the offense made the weary Pei Yanlai even more unhappy.

His eyebrows were lowered, as if he had completely taken off a layer of fairy mask surrounded by clouds, mountains and mists. He was reborn and ate five grains. A mortal with joy and anger, his words were quenched with cold air.

"Lin Xiaoshan." He asked softly, "What do you want to do?"

Maybe I was a bit of a slut by fate, and I was born to shake M, but I got the long-lost happiness in this sarcasm.

I am like a prey threatened by a wild beast, but the difference is that I am not afraid of death.

"Reminiscing about the past."

——even wanted to send a throat to curry favor with the cruel and unkind hunters.

I let go of my fingers one by one, and the corners of the clothes were held into clear folds.

"After all, we used to be... friends."
