hostage

"so what?"

Hearing the sound, Miyano Shiho, who was immersed in his own confusion, was startled by it, and when he came back to his senses, he looked for the sound, and it turned out to be Xu Mo who had turned back.

But even if he was frightened because he was not vigilant enough, Miyano Shiho's reaction ability was well-trained after all, and he returned to his normal state of calmness after a little surprise.

"Shouldn't it be time to rescue the reckless little girl?"

"Comparatively speaking, it's better to wake up those who want to watch me all the time." He raised his eyebrows and looked at Miyano Shiho meaningfully, "Or, instead of you continuing to follow me later, why don't you continue to follow me?" Be generous, together?"

Hearing this, Miyano seemed to be looking at Xu Mo with a serious expression of invitation, what are they now?Did they formally reach an agreement and become a cooperative relationship?However, there seems to be something different, it is the established connection, but why in the end, all the subtle connections between them have deviated from the track of the huge black shadow behind each.

But no matter whether it was the cooperative mission stated in the initial organization, or the current confrontation between the enemy and the friend, there are different demands, but in the final analysis, it can be regarded as the same goal in the end.

Miyano Fu pressed his head against the building wall again, and looked up at the sky. Today's sky is blue and cloudless, and his eyes are full of bright light, but this kind of light does not belong to him after all, and it doesn't even belong to the side. The scenery that man should have.

"What kind of sky do you think I will see?"

The man seemed to be able to sense what he was thinking, so he asked such a question. Miyano looked back at him again, unable to read one or two things in his calm and good-looking expression, Miyano knew that the eyes are the most true reflection, But from the first time we met, Miyano also knew that there was no story in this man's eyes, and the story in his heart or even in his mind could not be discovered by others after all. This may be his strength, he can study everyone, But after all, no one can study a complete Xu Mo.

But... Miyano snorted slightly, so lightly that perhaps only he could hear it.

"It's the haze." Miyano replied.

Xu Mo didn't seem to be surprised by her answer, and smiled with the corners of his mouth pulled up, "No matter what kind of sky, I only see haze and darkness in my eyes, but she appeared..."

"Tao Youran?"

"Guess what I can see in her eyes?"

"Color?" Miyano Shiho was a little surprised. Xu Mo couldn't distinguish the colors. This was a fact she had known and confirmed for a long time, but could there be such a strange exception in this world?

"No, it's light."

"..."

Seeing that Miyano Shiho seemed to be looking at him leisurely, Xu Mo smiled lightly, more self-deprecating.

"Is it hard to understand? Before I saw her, my world was gray and white. Not only was it colorless, but it was also dull. Every day was just acquired mechanically. Knowledge and skills were fame and achievements. Life was just a machine. ..."

"No, it's not difficult to understand." Miyano interrupted Xu Mo, "but, even so, she is not your responsibility."

"But she, maybe it's the light that drives me away from the darkness. She knows that I can't get close to her, but there is an inexplicable bond that keeps dragging her..." Xu Mo recalled those fragments of his childhood that were still incomplete. Or it was Mr. Tao's deliberate arrangement. In short, since we have reunited, how can we let it go.

"Let's go then."

Miyano sighed, and didn't want to dissuade any more. Maybe she wanted to find out about some things. What she couldn't tell Xu Mo at the moment was that she had already doubted Mr. Tao's identity, or in other words, had another guess .But looking up at Xu Mo, no matter how the relationship with Xu Mo has changed in the past few days, no matter what, for her, it is best not to have any deeper ties with anyone.

What's more, the person in front of her is still too unpredictable, she doesn't do things that she is not sure about.Then perhaps, Tao Youran is indeed a crucial key figure.

"what?"

"Didn't you go to the police station to pick her up?"

"it is good."

Tao Youran followed Xu Mo with her head drooping. She never thought that sister Anna would ask Xu Mo to come to the police station to sign to pick her up in the end.The moment she saw Xu Mo, Tao Youran couldn't tell what she was feeling. She was definitely surprised, but Tao Youran seemed to be a little surprised by the deer's bumping mood. Maybe she hoped to see this person again, but for To meet again under such embarrassing circumstances, she had to feel ashamed of her impulsiveness.

She thought of his indifference and determination on that rainy night, and when she apologized to him later, she couldn't ignore his expression of love and affection. After thinking about it, she still failed Xu Mo's care for her.

Leisurely followed Xu Mo in the aisle in the direction of the exit of the police station, but it took only a few steps, but it seemed to her that a century had passed. The silence finally turned into an alienation in the air, so that Tao Youran could almost hear the echo of her own heartbeat, and her ears rang again and again, making her pause involuntarily.

Xu Mo seemed to be able to feel Tao Youran's sluggishness, so he also stopped, turned around and looked at her, but she lowered her head, tangled and hesitant, and it took a while for her to muster up the courage to look up.

"Xu...Xu Mo..."

Tao Youran changed her name after turning around her throat.Since we met, in Tao Youran's eyes, he is the superior person, not only his status, but also the distance that can only be perceived by each other at a glance. teacher.Then, when she couldn't help calling him by his name when she couldn't help asking him that rainy night, she saw a different side of Xu Mo from what she had seen before.

"Well, you can call me by my name directly, in the future."

Surprised, Tao Youran was finally able to look directly at the man in front of her, her big eyes seemed to ask him why he knew what he was hesitating about? !

"What's the matter? Are you unwilling again?"

"No, it's not."

"No one will blame you, let's go and take you back."

In my impression, he said "send you back" to her too many times, but every time he sent her off, it seemed that the distance between each other was further shortened, or the entanglement was entangled with a deeper layer of involvement, but it seemed that every time It is always me who brings trouble in the same way.

The road, no matter how long it feels, will still come to an end. Tao Youran suddenly felt a glare of light jumping over her eyes, she raised her head and squinted her eyes involuntarily, and saw the reassuring figure behind her. In front of him, he had already reached the gate of the police station.Tao Youran took a small step, chased after him, tugged at Xu Mo's sleeve, and said timidly,

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be disobedient and go to the TV station."

"Fool, I know all about it."

"No, I saw a woman..."

"What woman?"

"...It was mentioned by the HBS people who were at the scene before that a woman wearing a mint green scarf appeared on the day my father disappeared. After a while, she was not among the people investigated by the police, but HBS did not have such a person. "

pat-

As if the sound of some landing interrupted what Xu Mo was about to say, following the sound, Miyano Shiho was standing not far from them, holding a cup of hot drink in one hand, while the other hand was full of dark water. The brown liquid is like coffee, the cup has already been poured on the place, and the coffee is gurgling out, flowing on the clean street.

"So... you met her, I'm the woman in the mint green scarf."

"Dr. Miyano? Why are you here?"

Leisurely didn't seem to notice Miyano Shiho's question, but was just curious about her.

"She came to pick you up with me. She just went to buy you something to drink."

Xu Mo stepped forward slightly, as if he wanted to sideways to block Tao Youran behind him. Hearing Tao Youran's narration, Xu Mo guessed who the woman was. However, it's not suitable for Miyano Shiho and Youran to have too much contact now. No, not just now.But the movements were not very obvious, after all, he was not sure whether Leisurely would have any doubts about his behavior.

However, Miyano Shiho seemed to have lost his calm judgment in the past, and didn't care what Xu Mo's every move represented, but just repeated her question in a daze.

"Have you seen her? Where have you seen her?"

"Just today, I mentioned it to the police before, but they said it was just my deduction based on the rumors from HBS, and they would not go after that woman who just appeared out of nowhere, but I saw her today, I followed her when I saw her in HBS!"

"and then?"

"Then? Disappeared at the scene... So it turned out that I destroyed the scene... Heh, Dr. Miyano knows her?"

"She, she is..."

"Shibao!"

Xu Mo's unusual address awakened Miyano Shiho, she calmed down, no, no, explaining her identity casually might also put Mingmei in the dark in danger, she raised her eyes to examine Xu Mo in front of her. Mo, before he had time to add, he discovered that Tao Youran was also looking at Xu Mo with very different eyes, but it didn't seem to be suspicious, but more puzzled and unexpected, and there was a faint sense of sourness, which made his tears seem to be filled with tears. In the eye sockets, before Xu Mo could speak, she couldn't help but continue to ask,

"Dr. Miyano, if you know her, I want to ask you who she is, and does it have anything to do with my father's disappearance?"

"Youran!" Xu Mo grabbed Tao Youran's arm, turned to look at her solemnly, shook his head slightly at her, and said, "Stop asking, this matter has nothing to do with Dr. Miyano."

Miyano didn't want to answer any more questions, so he turned around and left. Seeing this, Xu Mo immediately let go of Youran's hand, and followed Miyano's footsteps.

"Shiho Miyano!"

Hearing the sound, Miyano paused the trotting movement, stood still and regained his senses, and said to Xu Mo calmly,

"Tao Youran, who is optimistic about you, you'd better not meddle in my affairs."

Tao Youran who followed seemed to be cast on the spot, fixed on the spot, not knowing which sentence he was shocked by, and looked at Xu Mo slightly trembling.Xu Mo hurriedly turned around and noticed Youran's discomfort, gently hugged her shoulders, took her into his arms, patted her to comfort her, and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid! I will tell you something, But not now, be good, okay..."

She seemed to be very tired, and she was indeed very tired. Being stranded in the police station without closing her eyes for almost a day and a night, Tao Youran gradually fell asleep in Xu Mo's arms.

On the other side, Miyano Shiho, who had just turned around and left a short distance away, received a call at this moment. The male voice on the other end of the phone was deep and hoarse. Just calling his name, the coldness could penetrate people's hearts, and Miyano couldn't help it. Holding onto the electric pole by the side of the road, he listened to the other party's instructions and said,

"Sherry, it's time to come back, immediately!"
