[mouse cat] doll

Bai Yutang looked like he was talking in his sleep, his expression was very comfortable, and his behavior was very rascal.

But Zhan Zhao didn't immediately push him away like before, "You will live well." He patted him on the back, as if comforting him.After a pause, he let go, "Who knows what will happen after so long."

"Cat, what happened tonight..."

Bai Yutang looked at the carefully tied gauze around his wrist, gritted his teeth, wishing to pour out all the things in his heart like beans.But Zhan Zhao looked over with a puzzled look, "What's wrong tonight?"

There are actually a lot of flaws tonight, isn't it?Seeing Zhan Zhao nonchalantly calling the property owner to report for repairs to the damaged door locks and balcony, Bai Yutang felt an oppressive feeling that "the rain is about to come and the building is full of wind".In the later conversation with Jiang Ping, he also fully expressed his feelings.

"Fourth brother, help me find out the background of the gang that came to my door last night. Although these people were vague at the time, I always feel that things are about to be revealed."

Jiang Ping on the other end of the phone responded in surprise, "Understood, but has Zhan Zhao already suspected you?"

"He didn't say anything for the time being." Although the weather outside was fine and sunny, Bai Yutang had no time to appreciate the gift of nature. Not only did he not look out of the window, but he also closed the curtains All pulled up.

"But some things have to be arranged. Although I guess what happened last time probably won't happen again, I've already asked Su Hong to tell her father that some people under the management of the tune company came to Zhan Zhao's house. Around the residential area, step up inspections for suspicious visitors."

"Yo, it seems that you didn't become the son-in-law of the Su family. Su Hong's father actually promised you to abuse his resources. Those people can't be hired casually with money." Jiang Ping was half joking, but he Haha laughed twice but suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

Before Bai Yutang could speak, he continued on his own, "Yutang, I have something to tell you."

"What?" Feeling that Jiang Ping suddenly became serious, Bai Yutang was surprised. "The godmother did a divination a few days ago, and that 'rotten doll' is not you." Jiang Ping whispered.

Bai Yutang frowned, he was silent for a minute, Jiang Ping also shut up and remained silent. "It's... Zhan Zhao?" He could only think of this possibility.

"En." Jiang Ping responded, and asked Bai Yutang tentatively, "What should I do? Or do you intend not to give up on Zhan Zhao?" This matter was no small matter, and he was worried that Bai Yutang would not be able to bear it. "What can I do? Of course I won't give up. I have never seriously wanted to be with someone forever, so I will never let him decay."

Bai Yutang breathed out almost imperceptibly, "Godmother is just a magician, not a god. I'm afraid even she can't do anything about the trajectory of Tarot and stars." He lay down on the bed and put his hands under his head. "If she predicted that Zhan Zhao would 'decay', it must be a helpless process."

"I thought you would be worried to death when you heard the news, but your reaction was just the opposite." Jiang Ping couldn't understand how calm Bai Yutang was. "Fourth brother, dying in a hurry won't solve the problem." Bai Yutang was a little lost in thought, "I never believed in this world that you have to accept your fate. The godmother must have given other hints, right?"

"Zhan Bozhong, Zhan Zhao's adoptive father." Jiang Ping said these words solemnly.

Bai Yutang was thoughtful, "Is Zhan Bozhong..."

"What do you think?" Jiang Ping heard the clue, "Let's hear it."

"Fourth brother, you must not know the relationship between Zhan Bozhong and Zhan Zhao?" Bai Yutang's words made Jiang Ping suspicious. He..." The words blurted out, and Jiang Ping suddenly realized something was wrong, "Is the relationship between them not good?"

"Outsiders definitely don't know how their relationship is." Bai Yutang replied quickly, "Zhan Zhao doesn't have many friends, so there must be very few people who would take the initiative to look for him at his house, and Zhan Zhao lives alone outside, so they will know. The probability of the number of people in their relationship has been reduced by half. But I can tell you that Zhan Bozhong treats Zhan Zhao very badly. From my impression of him and Zhan Zhao’s words, I can feel that this person is simply It's not as good as a beast. The last time Zhan Zhao and I had a falling out, I didn't continue talking when I told you about it, so you don't know the inside story."

"But as far as I know, Zhan Bozhong adopted Zhan Zhao because of Zhan Zhao's mother. He loves Zhan Zhao's mother very much. As usual, since he is willing to adopt a son of a woman he loves, he shouldn't abuse him no matter what?"

Jiang Ping was shocked when he heard Bai Yutang's words, "Maybe it's because of Zhan Zhao's biological father?" Bai Yutang thought for a while, "The woman I love had a child with another man...although I don't know what happened to Zhan Zhao's mother. He is pregnant, but this incident must have offended Zhan Bozhong, he is so perverted that he absolutely cannot accept such a result, so he took all his anger on Zhan Zhao."

"Since he hates Zhan Zhao so much, why should he adopt him?" Jiang Ping still couldn't figure this out. "A few days ago, Zhan Zhao had a fever and was confused. He inadvertently revealed that he was born with traces of experimental products. He also mentioned that Zhan Bozhong thought of adopting him because he could not find his biological father. some kind of purpose."

Bai Yutang slowly recalled the conversation that day, and said to himself, "Although I still don't know what traces Zhan Zhao said, I guess it's not that Zhan Bozhong can't find Zhan Zhao's biological father. It took several years to find it, but even if I found it, I couldn’t bring it with me.”

Jiang Ping rubbed his chin, "Could it be that person is in a prison or something?" He thought this inference was reasonable, and Zhan Bozhong couldn't use it for himself even if he found someone in prison.

Bai Yutang was noncommittal, "Fourth brother, help me find Zhan Zhao's biological father." While thinking about the plan, he discussed with Jiang Ping, "Let's not mention whether Zhan Zhao would like to reunite with his biological father, but the true identity of Zhan Zhao's biological father must be It has a common connection with Zongheng's old laboratory and the real cause of Qi Musha's death.

Zhan Zhao was also investigating those matters, and Bai Yutang didn't say anything further. Zhan Zhao didn't say a lot of things, but it didn't necessarily mean that he didn't know anything about it. "You must help me with this matter." "

"Even Su Hong is willing to help you, of course I have to help." Jiang Ping shrugged while holding the phone, a thought flashed through his mind.I thought of a way, if the godmother's prophecy really starts to come true, if Zhan Zhao really doesn't get a good result, I want to..."

"Ah?" Bai Yutang looked strange, "How is it?"

"I'm going to buy a few tons of dynamite, blow up the Owl Café, and see how the so-called messy fate unfolds."

Bai Yutang's phone almost fell to the ground. "...I'm looking forward to it. Tell me before you blow up. I'll help the godmother find a new house to decorate. Then I will buy a life accident insurance for you and me."

Zhan Zhao took two days of sick leave, but Bai Yutang felt that two days was not enough, so he continued to ask for annual leave and stayed at home for a week.It is rare to rest at home these few days, Zhan Zhao probably made up for the lack of sleep in the past few years.

He was already used to falling asleep by Bai Yutang's side. Bai Yutang's company was more effective than sleeping pills, so he didn't need to worry about being unable to sleep late at night.

On the fourth day, the orphanage where Zhan Zhao stayed before called and said that they had found a necklace behind a cabinet in the reference room with a photo of Zhan Zhao's mother embedded in it.Back then, when a careless person was sorting out the things Zhan Zhao's mother sent, he accidentally dropped the necklace in the gap of the cabinet. The cabinet was immovable, and the necklace couldn't be taken out no matter what.

It wasn't until the beginning of this month that the orphanage adjusted the internal layout and demolished the original decorative cabinets in the reference room, and the necklace was accidentally seen again.Because it is an old photo from many years ago, the management personnel of the orphanage have also changed several times.After many twists and turns, she was able to remember all the children in the orphanage and the old director. After she identified it, she finally confirmed that the woman in the photo was Zhan Zhao's mother.

Zhan Zhao's mood became complicated by what the person on the other side said, and after a while, he took off the line.

"That's it, goodbye."

A piece of clothes was put on him, "I tell you to wear more clothes, I don't listen every time." Zhan Zhao turned around, and it was Bai Yutang who put the clothes on him. "You think you're not sick enough?" Bai Yutang held his slightly cold hand in his palm, and cast a dissatisfied glance at him.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "I know, I will take care of myself, don't worry about me." Then he patted the back of Bai Yutang's hand with his other hand, and the held hand struggled slightly, but there was still no struggle in the end In the end, but Bai Yutang had already let go.Now he no longer has obvious objections to Zhan Zhao's actions, Zhan Zhao doesn't say anything, so he doesn't say anything, the two of them tacitly adopt a secretive attitude towards certain things.

Bai Yutang fixed his collar, Zhan Zhao said, "I want to go out for a while."

"No, you can't blow the air." After finishing speaking with raised eyebrows, Bai Yutang's movements in his hands were unrelenting.

"Then you help me?" After finishing his collar, Zhan Zhao turned around and found a pen and paper to write a few words, "Here is the address and phone number on it. The orphanage I used to live in asked me to pick up a mother's necklace. Since I If I can't go out, I can only ask you to run for me."

"Okay, it's a trivial matter." Bai Yutang took the note and put it in his pocket, "I'll take it back and give it to you."

Zhan Zhao didn't want to, but said, "Just put it in your place!" When Bai Yutang looked at him suspiciously, Zhan Zhao seemed to look at him with a deliberate look, paused, and said categorically, "I'm not sick. Well, I’m not very smart, I’m afraid that if I put something somewhere, I won’t be able to find it later.”

"Would you? You're not a child." Bai Yutang frowned in surprise. "Of course it's not a problem for me to keep it for you, but since this necklace belongs to your mother, it's good for you to keep it by your side as a souvenir."

"She has passed away for so many years, and I have always kept her in my heart. It doesn't matter if I have a necklace or not." Zhan Zhao said these words to himself, and he poured himself a glass of water. The scenery here is colorful and dreamlike.

"Actually, no one has to live the same way. The fate of a person is predestined in the dark." Zhan Zhao smiled faintly, his tone completely disapproving, unquestionably disapproving.

"Don't say this kind of thing a second time in the future." The man was actually able to laugh.Bai Yutang's heart suddenly trembled, he already felt in a very bad mood, as if something was pressing down on his heart and he couldn't relieve it, it was an even more annoying feeling than watching the other person catch a cold and have a fever.A doll that decays quickly... He frowned again, hesitant to speak, lingering, really, really annoying.

"Yeah." Zhan Zhao's voice was a little bit backward, he just smiled and went back to his room.I don't know whether to agree with Bai Yutang's rebuttal or to confuse his rebuttal.Bai Yutang always felt that Zhan Zhao was hiding something from him, but he knew that if Zhan Zhao refused to tell, it would be useless to pry his mouth open.

Orphanage Director's Office

Zhan Zhao's mother's necklace was carefully placed in a velvet box, and an exquisitely crafted pendant hung under the pendant, like a unique photo frame.After Bai Yutang put the chain back into the box and stuffed it into the pocket of his coat, a photo on the table caught his attention.

This photo seems to have been taken a long time ago, after many years, with slight yellowing on the edges. The content on it is an old-fashioned French-style building.The director saw Bai Yutang staring at the photo without blinking, "Mr. Bai, is there anything special about this photo?"

Bai Yutang's eyebrows twitched slightly, "It's nothing, such buildings seem to be rare now." He answered decently on the face, but was full of surprise in his heart.This photo he remembered should be...

"This building used to be next to the orphanage. I heard that it was a nursing home, but it was demolished in a hurry. Because of the unique style of the building itself, the old director took a photo in advance as a souvenir. This is also a beautiful scenery. If you don't Just dismantle it." The dean's tone of voice fluctuated, and he seemed to narrow his eyes regretfully.Presumably she hasn't mentioned this to many people.

"It was demolished suddenly? Why?" Bai Yutang believed that his face was full of question marks. He had never forgotten the building in that photo—as expected, it was the nursing home!Although Qi Musha's murder case is closely related to the nursing home, after all, some incidents have taken too long and the clues have been interrupted. It is not easy to investigate, and the consideration may not be too thorough.But today he learned that the building was demolished suddenly...a feeling that something was wrong immediately surfaced in Bai Yutang's heart.

Looking at the photo, the director immediately shook his head: "I don't know the specifics. After all, it happened so many years ago. If you want to know, you can ask about the private hospital rebuilt on the original site of this building. It is the first private hospital in China. A large pharmaceutical company called Zongheng sponsored the reconstruction before, and originally had a cooperative relationship with that company, but judging from the current situation, it will be a matter of time before the two companies separate.

"Zonghengheng? Bai Yutang's eyebrows were furrowed into knots. He took out his mobile phone to take a picture, and he said goodbye and left.

On the way, Bai Yutang dialed a number, said a few words to the person on the other end of the phone, casually walked into a coffee shop that looked pretty good by the side of the road, went in to find Zhang Zuo and ordered a cup of coffee.

When he was halfway through his second cup of coffee, someone pushed the door, walked up to him, and handed him a folder.

When Bai Yutang came back, it happened to be about the time for dinner.

The rain outside the door and window was getting heavier and heavier, gradually turning into heavy rain, Zhan Zhao seemed to be busy with something in the kitchen, Bai Yutang was about to call him, but remembering the file folder in his hand, he turned and went into his room.The rain outside was hitting the open window, and a burst of cold passed through the room and blew on his cheeks. The family next door seemed to have relatives visiting recently, and they always played some records from time to time to enliven the atmosphere.

Bai Yutang put away the file folder, closed the window, and the sound of a song drifted over, a Cantonese song whose lyrics he couldn't understand, the tune was beautiful but inexplicably sad.He actually felt that he was in the realm of that song for a moment, and was touched sadly, but he didn't understand what he was feeling.

But when it rains, if there is only one person in the house, it will feel very quiet.

Turning on the light, he put the file folder on the table and opened it. Under the shadow of the light and the window sill, half covered by Bai Yutang's arm, the handwritten documents vaguely revealed the words about XX Hospital's operation and economic status.

After a while, he heard movement from the kitchen, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat, almost causing him to scratch the paper with a pen.Then the footsteps of slippers rubbing against the floor could be heard, slow and orderly, and one could tell it was Zhan Zhao.Bai Yutang stopped writing and stuffed the information into the file folder, and then put the file folder away.

When he opened the door, he suddenly understood his mood just now, probably because the truth of many things was about to come out, and no matter what he thought about, he would unconsciously pay attention to a person's feelings, thinking about what would happen if he knew, Regardless of whether he is present or not, it cannot be forgotten in any way.

At night, after Zhan Zhao went to bed, Bai Yutang quietly got up and went back to his room to read the materials.

After a quarter of an hour, Zhan Zhao got up and turned on the light with the sound of "Geda".At this time, the hour hand of the wall clock on the wall points to twelve o'clock.He glanced at the slightly sunken sheets around him, put on his clothes, and opened the door to get a water glass. The sound of a horn from the high shelf outside perfectly covered up the sound of his footsteps.

Passing Bai Yutang's room, he saw that the light was on in the room with the unclosed door. He had never seen Bai Yutang completely serious, but he saw him flipping through some documents, thinking about something wholeheartedly. He stared at those documents intently, and occasionally wrote something on a piece of paper on the table with a pen.

Zhan Zhao paused, then blinked slowly, feeling that he actually saw something he shouldn't have seen.This was the first time he looked at Bai Yutang from this angle. Such a Bai Yutang should be regarded as a very valuable man, or... a puppet?

Zhan Zhao lightly hooked the corner of his lower lip, everyone has a side that he doesn’t want to be known, and he didn’t actually see anything, the snail—this thing that walks around with its snail house on its back, is really because it doesn’t want to face the world, Is that why you ran away?

Being too lazy to face it is really its biggest sin!

The sound of the horn outside was still going on, Zhan Zhao quickly went to pour a glass of water and took a few sips, after thinking for a while, he gave up the idea of ​​taking the glass back.He never looked at Bai Yutang's room again, and gently pushed the door open to enter the room.
