Jia Ming

"Ain't nobody bringing us down down down down down down down..."

Jia Ming, who was sleeping, was woken up by the phone ringing.He stretched out his hand from the quilt, touched the phone on the bedside table and pressed the answer button.

"Hello?" Jia Ming couldn't open his eyes, and said weakly.

Jiaming's familiar voice came from the phone: "It's already 9 o'clock, and you are still sleeping, little slob? When did you become so sleepy?"

After being woken up, Jiaming didn't have a temper, but was sleepy.He reluctantly opened one eye, looked at the time on the phone, and lazily said: "Mom, it's only two o'clock here, it's two o'clock in the morning..."

The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a few seconds and then repeatedly apologized: "Mom forgot, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You see, my mother just can't remember things. I just picked up the phone and checked the time. I felt something was wrong. Why is it night? It will be transferred back at two o'clock later. I only remember now that it is two o'clock at night on your side."

"Mom, why are you calling?" Jia Ming was really not angry, but he had just lay down for more than an hour, and he was extremely exhausted physically and mentally. He wanted to know what could be resolved quickly, so he continued to lie back.

"It's nothing, it's just that my birthday is a week away. I want to ask if you are really coming back?"

"I told you last month. I finished my work ahead of schedule today and took half a month off. I just want to go back to celebrate your birthday with you. I'll fly back the day after tomorrow."

"Oh yes." The woman on the other end of the phone sighed, "Your child said he would go to Germany, and he didn't discuss it with me. He didn't come back for the Chinese New Year, and he only visited your mother once on my birthday. Hey , you don’t know if you’re doing well there alone, or if you’re used to eating.”

"I live very well by myself, and I cook my own meals, and I eat on time. You can pinch me as a fat person when you go home."

"Huh, your meat is so hard, I might as well brush the dog's hair. Then you have the heart to let your mother here alone?"

"In another year, I'll pick you up to live with me." Jia Ming was a little sleepy already.

Jiaming's mother said coquettishly: "I'm not going, I don't know anyone, and there are neighbors I know here."

Jia Ming almost exhaled this sentence out of breath: "Didn't you just relocate last month? Besides, there are so many handsome brothers and uncles here..."

"That's right! After I moved, I found that many neighbors live here, but it's a pity..."

At this time, Jiaming was still humming along, but in fact he couldn't listen to it any longer, and just fell asleep holding his mobile phone.

After that incident, Jia Ming told the counselor that he wanted to be an exchange student. Originally, the dean of the department also preferred Jia Ming, and he agreed without much consideration, and then reported his name.After Jia Ming passed away, he only focused on reading sage books, and at the same time considered going to Germany for postgraduate entrance examinations.Later, when he succeeded in the postgraduate entrance examination, Jiaming worked while studying.

It has been 1655 days since the confession that day, and in the past four years, there seems to be no major changes except for the surrounding environment... In fact, there is also my unfulfilling heart that still loves Xie Weiwen.

Over the years, he also tried to have a girlfriend, but he always felt guilty, and broke up every time he didn't get along for a long time, and the longest was only a month, and now he will obediently accept his fate and stop wasting the youth of other girls .

It's been too long since that day, but as long as I recall the pain of not being chosen by the one I love, it feels like yesterday, like a thorn in my back and a thorn in my throat.So he wants to get busy, so busy that he has no time to think about other things, so busy that he is exhausted, so tired that he can fall asleep when he lies down, forcing himself not to think about it.

It just seems that the effect of doing so is not very good. Just tonight, Jia Ming dreamed of him again.

……

Jiaming is hidden deep under a lake, which is clear and transparent, with nothing in it.He swam alone in the lake, free and unrestrained, and the majestic water kept sliding over Jia Ming's body, which was indescribably beautiful and pure.

Later, he found a man standing on the lake.Jia Ming struggled to go upstream, and he could see clearly near the lake that this person was Xie Weiwen.

Xie Weiwen always looked at Jia Ming, or squatted down or sat and talked to him.Telling happy stories, talking about novel things, talking about distressing thoughts, talking about everything and everything.Jiaming is also willing to listen to him, likes to listen to him - likes him, and then gradually gets close to him unconsciously.

But when Jiaming confided his heart, Xie Weiwen on the other side of the lake couldn't hear or feel it.Just when Jiaming's hand was about to stretch out the lake to touch Xie Weiwen with his own hands, someone suddenly took Xie Weiwen away.Xie Weiwen and that person walked too fast and too far, no matter how Jia Ming swam or shouted, he could never catch up or call him back.In the end, Jia Ming made a desperate move, jumped out of the water like a dolphin, and shouted Xie Weiwen's name loudly.The moment that person turned his head, the whole world began to crack, the lake water evaporated, and the sky was torn apart.And Jiaming turned into a beautiful white horse and flew to the sky...

……

"I'm really out of my mind."

Waking up from sleep, Jia Ming sat on the bed and hid his face laughing at himself.

But this kind of dream is not the first time, Jiaming is more or less used to it, and immediately gets up to make breakfast and pack things.After all, his vacation has begun!

Jia Ming first made himself something to eat, then took a shower, and then began to pack his luggage for returning home.After working around, Jia Ming picked up his phone and saw that his mother had sent him a lot of messages, all of which asked him to pay attention to his body, and his heart warmed.

"Go buy some presents and take them home today." Jia Ming picked up his wallet, and when he was about to go out, he heard a knock on the door.

The person outside the door asked in English if anyone was there.Jiaming immediately recognized that it was the landlady's wife, so he opened the door and asked her what was the matter.

The landlady said quickly: "Have your letter." Then she handed the letter to Jia Ming.

letter to me?

Jia Ming took it, and saw that the address and recipient were written in English on the envelope, but under the stamp was written in Chinese, "Mr. Jia Ming personally".The handwriting is very beautiful, and it looks like it was written by a girl.But who would have written it to him... Jia Ming couldn't figure it out.

"Thank you." I would like to thank the landlady for sending the letter.

The landlady smiled and said: "Happyholidays." Then she turned and left.

Jia Ming wondered: "Who sent it?" The letter was sent two months ago. I really don't know what took so long to reach me. "It was sent in France?" I was not in France either. My friends...don't write your signature either.

Jia Ming opened the envelope, and on the white A4 paper was written only the words "Don't go to the appointment".

What's the meaning?Don't go to the appointment?

He thought about this inexplicable letter for a while, but he still couldn't figure out what the "appointment" was.He hasn't dated anyone this year either... If it refers to going back to China to celebrate my mother's birthday?It seems that this person really doesn't know me very well. In the past two years, he rarely went out except for work, let alone had an "appointment".

But this beautiful character, in traditional characters, must be a native of Z and knows me.Because I haven’t spoken my Chinese name to anyone abroad, and I haven’t made any good friends personally…

"puff."

Jia Ming couldn't help laughing, and decided to ignore the letter.Because he really didn't have any clue, if he was referring to spending his mother's birthday with him, he could only "go to the appointment".Because I suddenly came to Germany to leave her alone, I feel ashamed in my heart, and this time I have said that I will spend a week with her on her birthday and a week with her, but it will definitely hurt if I suddenly can’t say it because of this inexplicable letter In her heart, she must not be able to bear it.

Jia Ming dropped the letter, hummed a song and went out to choose gifts.

"Jia Ming! It's already 10 o'clock, you still don't get up!"

Jia Ming lay on the bed, dragging the quilt tightly and coquettishly said: "Well... I haven't slept in for a long time, let me sleep more."

"I can only sleep for another half an hour!" Jia Ming's mother smiled, let him sleep for a while, and quietly closed the door.

It's already the third day of Jiaming's return to China. This kind of place where someone cooks for himself and there is no work is really too dreamy, so that he becomes a little lazy.Jiaming himself is still very conscious. If he is addicted to this pace of life, he will definitely delay his work after returning home, but at this moment he chooses to enjoy such a lazy and beautiful time.

However, it seemed that God didn't want him to be lazy. Just two minutes after his mother went out, Jia Ming's cell phone rang.

"Hmm... hello?"

"Hello, Jiaming." A strange voice came from the phone.

This cold, thick and electric voice woke Jiaming up at once——a voice changer.Jia Ming looked at the phone number of the other party. It was a number he had never seen before, and it looked like a call from a public phone booth.

Jia Ming suddenly became cautious, and smiled on the surface: "I have graduated for a long time, who are you? Why do you use a voice changer?"

Unexpectedly, the other party snorted and said in a low voice: "You disgusting gay." The voice that was originally made deep and thick because of the voice changer was even more heavy, and it was just pressed deep in Jiaming's heart The weakest of strings.

"...Who the hell are you?" Only he and Xie Weiwen knew that he liked Xie Weiwen, and he firmly believed that Xie Weiwen would never tell anyone else.Because if he wanted to say something, he could have said it as early as when he was an exchange student, so why wait until today.Then who could this be...

The other party still said coldly: "It doesn't matter who I am, as long as you know who Xie Weiwen is."

These words stepped on the chord in Zhong Jiaming's heart again, and hearing the other party's tone, he faintly felt that something was about to happen.

"Let's get straight to the point." Jia Ming didn't want to talk nonsense.

After the other party snorted, Jiaming's mobile phone immediately reminded him to receive a MMS message, "See you at your original home at 10 o'clock tonight." Then the other party hung up.

Jia Ming felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart, and clicked the MMS message nervously.

"This is..." Jia Ming gasped.

The picture in the MMS message shows a person tied to a chair, with his hands tied behind his back, his legs tied to a chair leg, his mouth sealed with tape, and his tear-filled eyes terrified—this person is It's Xie Weiwen.

Although he has no contact with Xie Weiwen at all, he still uses various channels to learn about his situation.The last time I asked was six days ago, when I heard that Xie Weiwen was on a business trip.If Xie Weiwen hasn't been contacted for a while, because of Jiaming's relationship with him, Xie Weiwen will definitely contact Jiaming's mother.And Jia Ming's mother didn't say anything, which means she didn't know.

Based on this information, Jia Ming preliminarily concluded that Xie Weiwen's kidnapping happened only in the last two days, and the first person contacted by the criminals was probably himself.The reason is unknown, I can only guess that this person is very familiar with him, and he learned his secret under some circumstances.At the same time, this person is also very familiar with the current situation of his own family - "the original home".

This reminded Jia Ming of the inexplicable letter that day - "Don't keep the appointment".Does it mean this?Does this person know something, or that the letter was a warning not to return to the country...

Got to save him.

No matter what, no matter what he says, he is his best friend. Even if he rejects me, it will not change the relationship between the two of us for so many years.Even if there is a fire pit in front of him, he has to jump, and he has to be brought back.

When Jia Ming was ready, his mother just brought out the lunch.

"Dinner Jiaming."

"Okay! Here we come." Jia Ming changed his clothes and came out, "It's beef tenderloin with green peppers! I can smell it in the room." Then he reached out to grab a piece of beef and eat it.

His mother rushed over and slapped her, "Wash your hands!" After taking a look at Jiaming, "Are you going out later?"

Jia Ming stuck out his tongue and went to wash his hands obediently, "Yes... By the way, Mom, do you still have the key to our previous house?"

"I haven't thrown it yet, why are you going back?"

"It's nothing. I was looking for something in the room just now and found that one thing was missing. Maybe you didn't move it here for me."

Jiaming's mother thought about it, and there were indeed some things that she didn't plan to move here because they were too old and broken, and they would probably be disgusted if given to others, so they put them there.She said: "Let's eat first, I will find it for you after eating."

"Okay~ By the way, Mom." Jia Ming probed, "How are Uncle Xie and the others doing?"

His mother suddenly yelled: "You are heartless, how dare you say that? Didn't your uncles and aunts treat you like their own son when they were young? Don't you get a share of all delicious and fun things? You are good, you don’t even say hello to people when you go abroad. You didn’t know how embarrassing it was when they asked me, do you know? You’re capable, right? Forgot this? How did I teach you before, To be a man is to..."

Jia Ming knew that he was wrong, and said with a guilty conscience: "Yes, yes. My son knows that he is wrong, the mother should be angry, and the mother should be angry."

His mother glared at him, and her anger subsided a little: "In two days, we have an appointment to have a barbecue together, and then you will stand out and apologize to your uncle and aunt, you know?"

Jiaming simply admitted his mistake: "Yes! Where is Ah Wen?"

His mother sneered: "Isn't he on a business trip? You two have the best relationship and asked me. Fool, ouch, have you cut your hair? It's waist-length and longer than your mother."

"Oh, yes. I'll go when I'm busy with work."

In this way, it seems that no one else knows about Xie Weiwen's kidnapping. From the photos, Xie Weiwen has no scars on his body other than being tied up, presumably he has not been abused.It is estimated that it was indeed what the person on the phone said, and he was only targeting himself, a "disgusting person".

It's just that Jia Ming has never been with Xie Weiwen.The other party probably hates me very much... Originally, if this kind of thing was caught and the evidence was handed over to the Z government, the Z government would personally eradicate such a person.However, since the other party did not have any substantial evidence, he could only threaten himself by kidnapping Xie Weiwen.

But I have never offended anyone, who on earth hates me so deeply.

While walking on the road, Jia Ming kept analyzing and thinking.The final conclusion is that this time is very dangerous, but I don't know how many people are on the other side, I don't know what the other party will do, and I don't even know where Xie Weiwen is.Because the background of the photo is definitely not the place where they originally lived.

But if you don't go, you will definitely not get other news from Xie Weiwen, and now Jia Ming can only play by ear.I hope the pocket knife I keep hidden in my body won't come in handy.

"Is it Jiaming?" An old man came over and asked.

It's after eight o'clock in the evening, because the night is too dark and the street lights are not bright enough that Jiaming can't see clearly. When the other party approached, he smiled and said, "Hey. Grandpa, I'm Jiaming."

This old man sold breakfast at the gate of the school when Ming was in elementary school, so he lived upstairs in his house.The old man likes Jiaming very much. Every time he comes to buy steamed noodles, he will beat an egg for him personally, so that when Jiaming goes to other stores to buy steamed egg powder, he only brings enough money without any other ingredients, which is embarrassing. .

Jia Ming didn't forget the old grandpa, and said with a smile, "Did grandpa move here?"

"Yeah, that building over there." The old man pointed in the direction, "It's also close to the original place, and I don't want to leave after living in a familiar place for a long time and feeling attached."

"Is it time to go home after a walk?" Jia Ming remembered that the old man would take a walk after eating.

"Yes. What are you doing here? Didn't you all move?"

Jia Ming suddenly became nervous, and said bluntly: "Uh. I came back to get some things, but there is a small thing that hasn't been removed."

The old man didn't hear anything either: "Oh. By the way, I also forgot something at home. Please help me get it."

"Okay."

"Just a small red book, in that rotten cabinet in the bedroom next to the kitchen. It was my grandson's composition "My Grandpa". When I see you, I will think of my grandson and I will think of that little composition." The old man raised his brows and eyes with joy.

"Okay. I got it and sent it to you at this time tomorrow." If everything can be resolved, "Grandpa, let's go home first, it's a bit cold at night."

"Time flies. You all grew up in a blink of an eye, and the young man surnamed Xie is also married." The grandfather said as he walked home.

yes.He has been married for more than a year...
