The people who hired me are dead

Yun Xinzhuo sometimes feels that he has no need to live anymore, he can't contact the system, he can't catch the god of death.He thought about ending his life in a corner, as he often did in his dreams.

But when the people around him smiled at him, Yun Xinzhuo felt that he should not leave.He believes that something is wrong with him, and when he recovers, he will be able to see the beauty of the world again.He waited for that day, for himself to heal, for the day when the rain would no longer smell bloody.

Grandma Miller didn't know what happened, but it was just an effort to make a small cake, and Yun Xinzhuo needed someone to help her walk.

"Oh... what's wrong with him." Grandma Miller pulled out the dentures from the cake and looked at Yun Xinzhuo in Reid's arms with distress. She thought for a while and said vaguely: "It's the care Is the courtyard exhausted? That’s right, it’s such a big house. You should pay someone to come, and it’s not very expensive.”

"I'm fine." Yun Xinzhuo said weakly, leaning on Reid.

Rhett didn't have the strength to reply to Grandma Miller, the sheriff and Sidney were inconvenient to help, and after sending them back by car, they handed Yun Xinzhuo to Rhett.

Although the distance was short, Yun Xinzhuo put all his weight on him along the way.It was only today that Rhett knew how heavy Yun Xinzhuo was, and the smell of blood, dust and sweat was really unpleasant.

"You can send him to the bedroom first. I have a lot of rooms here." Grandma Miller looked at Rhett and said, "I have three rooms... Oh! I'm such a rich old lady."

Reid couldn't help Yun Xinzhuo a little bit, he knew that Yun Xinzhuo's muscles were not for display.He looked around and said to Grandma Miller, "Can you lend me the wheelchair?"

As he spoke, he planned to go over and help Grandma Miller get up.

Grandma Miller stood up suddenly, hugged the blanket and pushed the wheelchair in front of Reid flexibly.Before Reid could react, he dragged Yun Xinzhuo and put him on the wheelchair.

"Your leg?" Rhett asked in surprise, panting heavily, "Didn't you say..."

"There is nothing wrong with my legs. It's just that I am old and I don't want to move. I bought a wheelchair for myself." Grandma Miller pushed the wheelchair and said with a smile: "I met kind people on the road. Push me all the way. Relying on this wheelchair, I can walk a long way slowly."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and rubbed Yun Xinzhuo's wet hair, and said softly: "You always have to learn to ask others for help. Many times what I need is not someone to push my wheelchair, I just want to feel the warmth. After all, I am alone Life is always going to be lonely, trust me, it makes you feel a lot better."

Rhett was pushing the wheelchair, and Grandma Miller was chattering along the way. Rhett felt that she was like a walking humanoid chicken soup, constantly pouring her life insights into his and Yun Xinzhuo's mouths.

To be honest, Rhett didn't hate this feeling, so he sent Yun Xinzhuo into the bedroom.This is the bedroom where Grandma Miller poured chocolate sauce.

The sheets had been replaced with new ones, and Rhett helped Yun Xinzhuo to put him on the bed.Grandma Miller was helping Yun Xinzhuo's slippers. She touched Yun Xinzhuo's forehead and said worriedly, "How is he? I also have a private doctor. I can call them over."

"They?" Rhett asked back.

"Several, probably...my husband left it to me." Grandma Miller pushed the reading glasses, took out a small book in her pocket, and began to look for the number on it, "I haven't contacted them for a long time, I will look for them. Which still works."

"No, he doesn't need it for now." Rhett unbuttoned Yun Xinzhuo's shirt just as he was about to take off Yun Xinzhuo's pants.Yun Xinzhuo, who had been silent with his eyelids down, sighed, and he stretched out his hand to grab his pants.With a light cough, she said helplessly, "Grandma Miller...don't look at me like that."

After hearing the words, Rhett looked back at Grandma Miller, who was just pretending to cover her eyes with her hands, and stared at Yun Xinzhuo intently from between her fingers.

"Grandma didn't see what silly things you were talking about, but I covered them tightly with my hands." Grandma Miller said with a smile, "Are you shy, Yun, do you know that your neck is also red when you are shy?" You are so cute, what are you hiding, grandma can't do anything."

Yun Xinzhuo was startled by Grandma Miller's fiery gaze. He wanted to cover his chest, but thought it was too strange.He grabbed the quilt beside him, trying to cover his upper body.

Rhett silently covered Yun Xinzhuo's bare/exposed chest muscles with a quilt, and then pushed Grandma Miller out together with her wheelchair.

"Grandma wants to see it too..." Grandma Miller said pitifully, holding on to the door frame, "There is no gym nearby. Grandma hasn't seen it for a long time..."

Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Rhett broke away from her hand and closed the door.

"How do you feel?" Reid wiped the sweat on Yun Xinzhuo's forehead with a wet towel and asked, "Go take a shower later, and then go to sleep."

Yun Xinzhuo opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, he hesitated for a while and whispered: "Can you stay with me, I think this bed is big enough."

Reid pursed his lips, he pondered for a moment and said, "Of course, of course."

Reid tried to relieve Yun Xinzhuo's pressure from sports music and other aspects, but finally found that as long as he was with Yun Xinzhuo, Yun Xinzhuo would be much more relaxed.

Although it sounds like good news, Reid has to think about what Yun Xinzhuo will do when he leaves.

He brought little Liv back from Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and then bit the bullet, and took the initiative to invite Sidney and a few policemen to Grandma Miller's house for dinner.

Grandma Miller's house hasn't been this lively for a long time since her husband passed away. She made a lot of snacks to entertain these people.She also said that she has a lot of vacant rooms here, and they can come in and live in them at any time.

Yun Xinzhuo didn't drink a lot of wine, he sat on the sofa and braided Liv's hair, looking at Reid with closeness and dependence.

The sheriff told Yun Xinzhuo that he could no longer continue to be a police officer.Yun Xinzhuo did not fluctuate much, he has already made new plans for the future.He has a place he wants to go and a new purpose in life.

Reid's vacation was not long, and he couldn't stay with Yun Xinzhuo all the time.Fortunately, after beating Gary hard, Yun Xinzhuo recovered a lot.

It only took him one night to become lively again, and he seemed to have forgotten the previous unhappiness.The sheriff and Sidney who came to visit him were happy to see him, and only at night would he put his arms around Rhett and chat with him in a low voice.

Rhett was willing to listen, and gradually he didn't mind Yun Xinzhuo's hug so much.Because Yun Xinzhuo won't do any unnecessary actions, he will only look at Reid's face seriously, and then express his negative emotions in the most gentle tone.

When sober, Yun Xinzhuo is very good at controlling his emotions to avoid letting his emotions affect Reid.

"You can vent out and say what you want to say most directly, I'm sure I'm ready." Reid leaned on his arm and looked sideways at Yun Xinzhuo and said.

Yun Xinzhuo pretended not to hear the sound of the wheelchair outside the door. He thought for a while and said, "Actually, I have nothing to complain about. After all, things are impermanent. But I always feel sad suddenly, and I can't explain the reason myself."

"It sounds like you've recovered a lot. Now you just need to continue taking the medicine." Reid closed his eyes and pulled the quilt and said, "What are you going to do in the future? You can no longer be a policeman."

Yun Xinzhuo habitually leaned against Reid to absorb his body temperature.He said softly: "I already have a place I want to go, but I plan to stay with Grandma Miller first. She said two days ago that she doesn't like to be alone, so I can stay here with Liv for a while. "

Reid flew back to Quantico in the afternoon of the second day. Little Liv looked at the plane in the sky, held Yun Xinzhuo's hand and asked doubtfully, "How did Uncle Reed leave?"

"He's going back to work." Yun Xinzhuo said.

"It won't be long before you come back?" Little Liv asked.

"I won't be back for a long time." Yun Xinzhuo picked up Lifu and walked to the taxi he had booked.

"Just like mother?" Little Liv asked again.

Yun Xinzhuo is not as uncomfortable as it was at the beginning, he is trying to learn to accept life and death calmly, after all, he often experiences these.

"It's different, you'll understand when you grow up." Yun Xinzhuo said casually.

In the taxi, little Lifu was very quiet, she frowned and thought about things seriously.After returning to Grandma Miller's house, she tugged at the hem of Yun Xinzhuo's clothes and made him bend down.

"I've decided. I'm going to grow up quickly starting tomorrow. I'm going to go to school, and then I'll be admitted to university." Little Liv pouted.

"Why?" Yun Xinzhuo asked casually.

"Because if Liv doesn't grow up soon, you will marry Uncle Rhett." Little Liv folded her arms and said with a serious expression: "When you go to college, Liv is a college student, and a college student is an adult. The time of adulthood It’s too long, I’d better go to college and hurry up.”

"What are you talking about?" Yun Xinzhuo knocked on Lifu's head and said helplessly: "Your little head is full of nonsense, don't talk nonsense next time."

"Then why didn't Uncle Yun let Lifu sleep with you?" Little Lifu said angrily, "You guys secretly kissed behind Lifu's back. Lifu will be four years old in a few months. Liv what? I understand."

"Where did you learn these things?" Yun Xinzhuo said in surprise.

"On TV, they will kiss when they get married, and Liv has seen it." Little Liv poked Yun Xinzhuo's lips with her finger and said, "Aunt Smith told me that you can only kiss when you are in love. I secretly fell in love, and when I fall in love, I will get married."

As she said that, Little Liv held Yun Xinzhuo's cheeks and said, "Yun Xinzhuo, you are mine, you are not allowed to marry Spencer Reid."

"Uncle, Liv, this is a matter of politeness." Yun Xinzhuo pinched Liv's face and said, "And we are not in a relationship, we are just friends."

Little Lifu looked at Yun Xinzhuo suspiciously, and finally muttered in a low voice: "But Grandma Miller said you kissed."

Yun Xinzhuo looked up at Grandma Miller in the wheelchair, Grandma Miller giggled, took a bite of the cupcake and pretended she didn't hear anything.

After Ruide left, little Lifu shared the bed with Yun Xinzhuo, and he habitually reached out to hug the people around him at night, but he didn't feel the familiar body temperature.

Yun Xinzhuo opened his eyes vigilantly, and saw that Lifu was sleeping with her mouth open.He looked at little Lifu in a daze, until little Lifu snorted and slipped into his arms.He just stretched out his arms to hug little Liv. He took out his mobile phone and turned to Reid's mobile number. After looking at it for a long time, he didn't press it.

He lay on the bed and read over and over again the emails Rhett had sent him, and there were still a few photos of him and Rhett in his phone.Although Reid looked very stiff when facing the camera, Yun Xinzhuo still enjoyed looking at these photos.

Listening to the sound of little Lifu smacking her lips, Yun Xinzhuo hugged little Lifu tightly in her arms, and fell asleep holding the phone.

He has enough savings, and he no longer needs to see a psychiatrist so often, he can live a leisurely life.

One evening, Grandma Miller looked at Yun Xinzhuo who was tidying up the kitchen and asked, "Do you want to see Rhett?"

"It's okay, what's the matter." Yun Xinzhuo paused, and he turned around and asked.

"You don't look like 'it's okay'." Grandma Miller tilted her head and said, "You have to learn to fight for what you want, Yun, as long as you behave well and don't cause trouble to the other party, then you have to let it go do it."

"What do you want to say?" Yun Xinzhuo put down the plate in his hand and said softly.

"You don't have to look forward and backward, Yun, grandma's body can still take the plane."

..............................

"Good night, my baby." The woman kissed the girl's forehead and said softly.

"Mom, I don't want to sleep separately from my brother." The little girl hugged her teddy bear tightly, pouted and said, "Why can't I sleep with my brother?"

"Because my brother has grown up, and you are a girl, and my brother is a boy." The woman turned off the bedside lamp, pulled the girl's quilt, turned and left.

The night wind blew in from the window, gently caressing the girl's cheek.She tilted her head and looked at the stars in the night sky, hugged the teddy bear tightly and fell asleep.

The night was long and peaceful as usual, until a scream woke the girl up.

"Mom?" The girl looked at the door of the bedroom blankly, she rubbed her eyes and called softly, "Mom, are you there?"

The gentle wind blew past her ears, bringing the fragrance of leaves, but did not tell her any news.The girl hugged the teddy bear, opened the door and walked out of the bedroom.

When it was daylight, there were noisy voices in the street.The police car stopped in front of a two-story private house and cordoned off the surrounding area.

"Sir, no survivors have been found yet." A little policeman ran out and said.

The sheriff looked at the broken body of the hostess on the living room floor, frowned and said: "The body is wrong, there are only two adults. Where are the two children now?"

The sheriff put on his gloves, avoided the blood on the ground, walked to the second floor, and searched from room to room.

There was no trace in the two children's bedrooms, and they eventually found the boy's body in a second-floor hallway.

"My brother is here, and my sister is here." The police chief squatted on the ground, observed the boy's body, sighed and said, "We need to wait for the forensic doctor to determine the fatal injury. To be honest, I hope the wound on his body is posthumous..."

He stopped suddenly in the middle of his words, and he raised his hand to signal the policemen around him to be quiet.

"Did you hear anything?" The sheriff listened carefully, gripped his gun and pushed open the bathroom door.

He stopped in front of the mirror, and there were small knocking sounds and childish cries for help from behind the mirror.

"Mom... I'm afraid..."

........................

Ron Street in Quantico was as calm as ever, and the morning sun shone down on the street, on the plaque in a candy store, on Jeffrey's young face.

He came to Quantico alone from Nebraska to go to college. Living alone in a strange city is not an easy task.Fortunately, the law and order in Quantico is good, and the students at Oud Sovereign University are also very friendly.

The only thing that makes him uncomfortable is that the toy store downstairs from his house has been turned into a candy store.He has been saving money and wants to buy a gift for his girlfriend.

The owner of the candy store is a strong Asian man, he has a beautiful little daughter, and an old lady in a wheelchair who likes to joke.

"Hello, do you have any chocolate?" On Valentine's Day, Jeffrey pushed open the door of the candy store and asked the old lady who was teasing the cat.

"Louder—I can't hear you," said the old lady, tilting her head.

"I want to buy some chocolates for Valentine's Day," Jeffrey said, raising his voice.

"Over there." The old lady pointed to a shelf and said, "The most beautiful ones are made by myself, and the dim sum I made is very delicious."

In fact, there are not only beautiful chocolates there, but also two lumps of invisible shapes that were carefully packed in a box. There is a small card drawn by crayons on the bottom, and the price is one dollar.

Jeffrey glanced at the two boxes of chocolates in disgust, and when he was picking out a box in the other row to pay, two people walked in.

They looked around vigilantly and determined that there was only one old man here.One of them walked over and took out a gun, took out a black pocket, and said to the old lady sitting behind the counter, "Put the money in your pocket, quick."

Jeffrey took two steps back to avoid being affected. He hid behind the shelf and watched the guns in the hands of the two men did not dare to speak.

"Don't worry, don't worry, what's the rush, it's not that I can't hear you." The old lady slowly grabbed the money and put it in the bag, and said in a rambling voice: "Why are young people nowadays so impatient? Grandma moves slowly. Just poke grandma with a gun..."

"Hurry up, what are you talking about." Robber/Bandit said nervously, "I'll kill you if you're moaning."

"Grandma won't listen to you talking like that." The old lady stopped, and she raised her head and shouted to the door behind her: "Xiaoyun, stop practicing boxing, Xiaoyun, there are guests."

Before she could finish speaking, the door was pulled open.A man came out panting heavily. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked up at the robber who was half a head taller than him in front of him, grinned and asked, "Good morning, what do you two want to buy?" ?"

The robber looked at the short Asian man, pointed his gun at his chest, and said fiercely, "I want money, put it in quickly, or I will kill you."

"What did you say?" the man asked in surprise.

"Robbery," repeated the robber.

"Are you crazy, rob me." The man smiled contemptuously, holding the robber's wrist and his face slowly sank.

Jeffrey, who had just reported to the police, heard the screams of the robbers, and tremblingly made another emergency call.

Before he hung up the phone, a man appeared in front of him, pulling him up with his arms.

"Hello, Yun Xinzhuo." Yun Xinzhuo stretched out his hand and said friendlyly, "I hope you are not injured."

"Jeffrey Sam..." Jeffrey whispered while holding the chocolate, looking at the blood on Yun Xinzhuo's clothes.

"Have you bought what you want?" Yun Xinzhuo asked with a smile.

After Jeffrey left, Yun Xinzhuo squatted on the ground and picked up the robber's teeth and blood.The two robbers were tied up by him and thrown aside. Grandma Miller was plaiting their beards with a smile.

There was news on the TV on the wall, and a female reporter said to the camera: "Recently, a serious murder occurred in our city. Three people were killed and one was seriously injured. Residents, please try to avoid going out late at night and lock your doors and windows to prevent accidents. Our reporter understands that the BAU has stepped in to assist in the investigation."
