Chapter 10 The last stop
Austria. Graz. Armor Museum
Graz, the second largest city in Austria, is located on the border between Austria and Hungary. This city was once an important border defense point for Austria in the Middle Ages.Different from other museums, the exhibits of the Graz Armor Museum are not based on types, but on quantity. This museum, built in 1642, still has more than [-] pieces of armor and cold weapons.
In fact, the museum is an armory.
Zhong Ye stood quietly in front of a wall, which was the armor display room on the third floor.The room was densely packed with display items such as breastplates, helmets, neck armors, face armors, etc., but there was only an unnaturally large area where Zhong Ye stood.The moment Zhong Ye stepped into the room, he knew that the message he was looking for was here.
Lifting the spray can in his hand, he gently sprayed the liquid inside on the wall.This is the luminol reagent for testing blood, and Gilgamesh was instructed to do so by a message on the tablet.
After spraying, a chemical reaction occurred on the wall immediately, and a line of fluorescent English words appeared on the surface.Staring at this line of English, Zhong Ye's dark pupils were soaked in a layer of mist.
──Vatican Museums, Spiral Staircase──
This is his next stop, the final stop.All mysteries will be answered there.
"Let's go as soon as you get the message." Jin's voice came from behind. He was holding a plastic bucket in his hand, and the smell of blood wafted out of the bucket.
"What is this?" Zhong Ye covered his nose in disgust.
"Pig blood, you definitely don't want this message to be seen by others, right?" Jin said as he splashed the blood on the wall, and the sticky dark red immediately covered the fluorescence.
Zhong Ye turned and left. The museum was very quiet, and it seemed that Mathilde's men hadn't arrived yet.After escaping from the train, Zhong Ye and Jin rushed to Austria overnight, and finally got the last message before the organization.The outcome has been decided, as long as the English on the wall is covered by blood, the organization will never know the whereabouts of Zhongjing and the artworks.
"What's the matter, you don't seem very happy?" Jin asked in a low voice after catching up with Zhong Ye and walking side by side.
"I don't know... I can find Brother Zhongjing soon, but my heart suddenly feels empty." Zhong Ye lowered his head and pressed his chest.
JIN smiled and kissed him on the face: "The thieving career is coming to an end, it makes you feel empty. But don't be too happy, chasers may appear at any time, the battle is not over yet."
Zhong Ye also smiled, but the smile soon froze on his face.Listening to the flow of air with a tense expression, he kicked JIN: "You crow's mouth."
He is very sensitive to sound, in the supposedly empty museum, there was a slight sound of footsteps at some point.There was more than one person on the other side, there might be dozens of them. He knew that these people could never be security guards.The organization's pursuers came, and he and JIN had to escape, otherwise the organization would have countless tortures to make them speak the content of the message on the wall.
"Get the gun out." He pushed Jin's arm.
"Where is the gun? The sniper rifle used to save you was left on the way." JIN shrugged.
"Why didn't you prepare in advance?" Zhong Ye frowned. He always thought that Jin was omnipotent, but he didn't expect that he would be unable to help at a critical moment.
"What kind of eyes do you have!" Jin pinched him on the face, "I have to find a way to save you, get a sniper rifle, take you away, and arrange a route in advance to catch Matil De came here before. I don't have time to get weapons? Do you think I'm a universal robot?"
"Aren't you?" Zhong Ye rolled his eyes at him, "If you can't help, please stop talking nonsense, I will find a way by myself."
"Forget it, what's the use of you, a little thief who can't even step on ants to death? What else can you do but run away?" Jin said, pulling out two long guns from his backpack as if by magic, and threw them at Zhong Ye. Come here, "Go on!"
"This is...?!" Zhong Ye was holding the gun, and suddenly his face turned pale with shock. What JIN threw to him turned out to be an old matchlock gun, which was exhibited in the museum!
"You can't destroy cultural relics!" He grabbed Jin's shoulder, who was tinkering with a flintlock.The principle of this kind of gun is to ignite the charge with a flint action, which is faster than the matchlock gun, has a small caliber, light weight and low recoil.But no matter what kind of guns are priceless, Jin actually wants to use them to attack Mathilde's men?
"Your Excellency 'Dark Blue', please don't pick and choose at such a critical moment," Jin glanced at him helplessly, "This museum is a ready-made arsenal of weapons, why do we bother to bring weapons in from outside? As long as It is enough to drive away the pursuers, and we must use the resources available around us as much as possible.”
"but……"
"After the matter is over, I will send a check to compensate for the loss of the museum. Is this okay?" Zhong Ye's hesitation was a headache, and Jin pushed him to the corner of the room, "Quick, pile up these things."
"These..." Zhong Ye stared blankly at a pair of armor in the corner, and immediately understood what Jin meant.Each piece of these armors weighs tens of kilograms, thick and strong, and it is perfect for defense.
A few minutes later, a group of men in black suits broke into the third floor.They were dressed exactly like those in St. Petersburg.At this time, the room was completely silent, and there were no figures of Zhong Ye and Jin.
In the middle of the room, several pairs of armor were lined up, and the leading man raised his gun and approached slowly.At this moment, a gunshot sounded from the armor, and a burst of flames exploded in the crowd, and all the black suits immediately retreated to the corner.
Zhong Ye let out a surprised sigh, he didn't expect these ancient cultural relics to be still usable.He and Jin are hiding behind armor, and these metal armors are natural barriers.Unless it was a bazooka, no amount of bullets would hurt a single hair of his head.
"Should we kill them all?" he asked Jin.
"It's not necessary, we'll just hold on until the police arrive."
"The police?! You actually notified the police?"
"The Italian mafia invaded the Austrian museum late at night, why can't passers-by with a sense of justice notify the police?" Jin winked at him, "Tonight's protagonists are those black suits, not 'Dark Blue'. 'Dark Blue' doesn't have any at all." Come."
"...Pfft," seeing the cunning flash in Jin's eyes, Zhong Ye laughed dumbly, and nodded vigorously, "Yes, 'Dark Blue' didn't come at all today, we are passers-by with a sense of justice!"
At this time, there was a violent gunshot in front of him, it was a machine gun!Countless bullets hit the precious armor and were bounced on the ground. The tragic scene made Zhong Ye's heart bleed.The only time, he swore it really was the only time!From now on, he will never attract such a large amount of firepower and let these bastards brutally damage the artwork!
The sound of machine guns and muskets filled the room, and the pungent smell of gunpowder was everywhere.The limestone on the wall was scattered and splashed, and sparks kept splashing from the metal armor.This museum is far away from the busy city, otherwise Zhong Ye would doubt that such a big movement would wake up the residents in a radius of several kilometers.
Just then, behind him, outside the open window, he heard the faint sound of sirens. It was the police.
Red and blue police lights cut through the night sky, and dozens of police cars rushed towards the museum frantically.Unexpectedly, the police would arrive so quickly, and the attacks of the black suits froze for an instant.They never imagined that Zhong Ye and Jin, who were also intruders in the museum, had the guts to contact the police, and they called the police in advance!
The bullets of the matchlock gun in Zhong Ye's hand were almost finished, and he admired Jin's precise calculation from the bottom of his heart.The two exchanged glances, and under the cover of their armor, they slowly backed away from the hail of bullets in their black suits, and jumped out of the window one after the other.
The ropes that Zhong Ye had prepared in advance were hung on the window sill, and there were dense bushes downstairs, and a tall fence with wires next to it.Such a wall couldn't stop Zhong Ye and Jin at all. The two easily crossed the wall with climbing tools, jumped into the forest beside the wall, and quickly disappeared under the cover of trees.
A few hours later, Zhong Ye was already sitting on the bed in the bedroom.This is a villa located in the outskirts of Vienna, Austria, which is JIN's private property.
Zhong Ye was wearing a white bathrobe.The wet black hair was still dripping.He silently stared at the desk in front of him in a daze, the stagnant fog lingering in his pupils.
There are a lot of things randomly thrown on the table, including Zhong Ye's own backpack, a bunch of tools for theft, a laptop, and JIN's and Zhong Ye's own mobile phones.There was a note lying in the middle of the table, on which was written the message that Zhong Ye got from the Armor Museum.
Is this the end?Clues about Zhong Jing are hidden somewhere in the spiral staircase of the Vatican Museum.In a little bit, he will end his career as a thief and reunite with his longing brother.
But what about the feeling of emptiness inside?He has a more sensitive intuition than ordinary people, which brings him a slight fear.
he is afraid?
"What are you staring at alone?" JIN's warm voice came from beside him.He walked out of the bathroom, only wrapped a towel around his waist, and while wiping his hair with the towel, he approached Zhong Ye, leaned over and kissed him on the face.
Zhong Ye dodged uncomfortably, with a slight blush on his cheeks.At this point, it is impossible for him and he is too embarrassed to speak harshly to Jin again, but he has long been used to being alone, and he doesn't know what the right reaction is.
The organization taught him how to live in harmony with strangers and win their favor, but did not teach him how to treat friends.
Jin is his friend ─ ─ should be considered.
"Suddenly you don't look at me like you used to all day long. I'm really not used to it." Jin tenderly bit his ear, stretched his hands restlessly into Zhong Ye's bathrobe, and stroked his body.
"Let go of me... nasty!" Zhong Ye frowned, twisting his waist to resist slightly, "Don't think that when you forced me to say that sentence in the forest that time, it became a fact!"
"That sentence?" Jin deliberately pretended not to understand, "Oh, is it the sentence 'I love you'?"
"You ask the question knowingly!" Zhong Ye felt annoyed.
"Don't worry, I didn't take it seriously, I just wanted to hear what you said," JIN smiled, "I know your personality, although you look innocent and enthusiastic, it's easy for strangers to have feelings for you Favor, but those are the skills that the organization teaches you. In fact, you don’t know how to make friends at all, and you don’t know how to get close to others, do you? So I have to teach you to be friends with me first, and then I can make you become my lover."
"Who will be your lover!" Zhong Ye stood up fiercely, "Don't forget that my work is not over yet! Your task is not considered until you get the final message from the Vatican Museum and find out the whereabouts of Brother Zhongjing Finish!"
Jin looked at him silently, a warm smile slowly disappeared from his face.Zhong Ye felt that he was a little unhappy, why?
"... Zhong Ye, I still mean that," Jin said slowly, staring at Zhong Ye's pupils, "You shouldn't be looking for Zhong Jing so frantically, after so many years, he may not be what you imagined. You’ve wasted ten years of your youth in the criminal world, it’s time to find a new life, you shouldn’t always be living in the past.”
"I have already said that you are not allowed to insult Brother Zhongjing!" A burst of blood surged in his chest, and Zhong Ye was furious, "Don't think that you saved me, and it is nothing special if you help me! Don't always pretend to be you You know everything! What qualifications do you have to judge the current Zhongjing brother? Have you seen him? Do you know what he looks like now? Are you a bug in his stomach, or are you simply him! "
In a fit of anger, he expressed his confusion for a long time, and Zhong Ye was a little flustered for a moment.But Jin's expression didn't change at all, and he shook his head firmly without even hesitating.
"I haven't seen him now, and of course I'm not him. Do you want me to be? Are you interested in sleeping with your own brother?"
"It's none of your business! Since you are not him and have never seen him, what right do you have to suspect that he is different from before? How much hatred do you have for him, and you want to slander him and doubt him like this all day long! Why do you ...Do you want me to give up looking for him? What kind of heart do you have!」
The more Zhong Ye spoke, the more angry he became, as if a big stone was stuck in his chest.
He doesn't want this, he doesn't want to quarrel with Jin, he doesn't want to always have bad words with a person who has helped him many times.He had a little hope that he could live in peace with Jin. JIN has many advantages. He knows a lot of things that Zhong Ye doesn't understand. After Zhong Ye retires, they may become partners. Besides, Zhong Ye has no cleanliness in body and spirit. JIN can make him very comfortable. The current physical relationship It doesn't matter if you keep it up.
But the only thing he doesn't understand, and he can't tolerate, is that Jin seems to have a strong hatred for Zhongjing.
JIN, he seems to hate Zhong Jing.
"Okay, don't talk about this for now." Seeing Zhong Ye's red eyes, JIN shook his head, stretched out his arms and hugged Zhong Ye, and slowly pushed him down on the bed. Seung, let's celebrate first."
Zhong Ye didn't speak, just looked at the ceiling silently.He knew what JIN meant by celebrating, and there was always only one thing he wanted to do.
The nightgown was gently taken off, and the fingers were slowly inserted into the backyard with cold wetness, and spun slowly.When the sensitive part was touched, Zhong Ye gasped provocatively, and began to twist his body. Jin always makes him feel comfortable and happy, and he wishes they could be so happy when they talk.
Soon, the fingers withdrew.When the hard and hot giant was inserted in, Zhong Ye cried out in a low voice, opened his feet actively, and clasped Jin's broad back with his arms.
At this moment, Jin's mobile phone on the table suddenly lighted up silently.
***
Zhong Ye woke up sweating profusely, panting quickly.There was the sound of heart beating in his ears. He seemed to have had a nightmare just now, but he couldn't remember anything.
The side is empty, JIN is not on the bed.The faint light penetrated through the gaps in the curtains, and the night has passed quietly.Zhong Ye couldn't remember how many times he had sex with Jin last night, and in the end he was so weak that he couldn't make a sound, and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep during the process of being inserted.
However, the feeling of uneasiness in my heart still lingers, or in other words, it is more serious.Zhong Ye felt that a corner of his subconscious was ringing an alarm, but he didn't understand where the danger lay.Everything has passed, and the organization does not know the whereabouts of Zhongjing and Artwork, nor where he and Jin are now.Soon he will be reunited with Zhong Jing, what is the cause of this uneasy feeling?
At this moment, Zhong Ye caught something out of the corner of his eye, and Zhong Ye turned his head, only to find that it was Jin's cell phone that had lit up.He knows Jin's habits, his mobile phone has always been kept in a silent state, never disturbing anyone.
Who is looking for him?
Zhong Ye stared fixedly at the phone.
Twenty minutes later, Jin walked in wearing a nightgown.He smelled like food, and he seemed to have gone to make breakfast just now.
Zhong Ye was still sitting by the bed like last night, looking at the pile of things on the table.The laptop was on, but the screen was pitch black.
"Why are you in a daze again? After escaping from the museum, you seem to be not quite right," JIN smiled and hugged Zhong Ye's shoulders, and sat next to him, "You don't look very good either, are you tired? Yes. , when you were in London, you still had a high fever, and you didn't have a good rest all the way..."
"How do you know that I had a high fever when I was in London?" Zhong Ye asked suddenly.
JIN froze for a moment, then smiled confusedly: "Is it strange? I've been tracking your movements, otherwise how could I save you from the train?"
"That's right." Zhong Ye also smiled. He stood up and walked to the desk, gently stroking the keyboard of the laptop with his fingers.
"JIN, I remember you said that I rely on my intuition, the instinct of this animal, to live safely until now. You are right, I can feel maliciousness and danger, this is my relationship with life. The inherent talent is also one of the reasons why the organization chose me. However, after leaving the Armor Museum, I have always felt very uneasy and felt that I was in a huge crisis.”
"What crisis? Did Mathilde discover our hiding place?" Jin frowned.
Zhong Ye shook his head and moved the mouse lightly.The laptop's screen lit up, and a large number of communication records were scrolling quickly on it. Jin's expression froze for a moment, and he noticed that there was a data cable connected to the back of the notebook, and the other end was plugged into his mobile phone.
What was displayed on the computer were his call records in recent months.
All records show the same number.
"I finally understand now, who has been tracking me, trying to sanction me, and even assassinate me," Zhong Ye sneered, "This is Mathilde's dedicated phone number, and you have been talking to me these past few months. She contacted. The one who wanted to kill me was never the fake police in St. Petersburg, nor the men in gray and black suits, the one who really wanted to kill me was—you!"
Jin's lips moved, he wanted to stand up, but Zhong Ye suddenly took out a gun from behind and aimed it at him.
"Zhongye..." Jin called out his name softly.
"Don't call me, you disgusting thing!" Zhong Ye gritted his teeth hard, and the corners of his red eyes overflowed with a little moisture, "You are really scheming, what a sophisticated plan you conceived with Mathilde! In fact, you not only Didn't intend to let me go, didn't even intend to let me continue to live, right?! You told me that you didn't have a weapon on you, so what happened to the gun I found in your luggage?! "
"Midnight..."
"Shut up! Tell me honestly, Mathilde...what is she going to do to me! Where are you going to kill me! Is it in the Vatican Museum? Or...just here!"
"No, you misunderstood." JIN shook his head, and he didn't intend to hide the matter at this point, "Matilde is just helping me, this series of things is my own plan from beginning to end .”
"Zhong Ye opened his eyes slightly, his shoulders were trembling violently, "You...why did you do this...!"
"I want you to forget Zhongjing, I want you to fill my place everywhere in your heart," JIN raised his head, his light gray pupils stared deeply at Zhongye, "Zhongye, I love you. Only this , I never lied to you."
"Do you think I will still believe you!" Zhong Ye exclaimed excitedly, and the muzzle of the gun pressed hard against JIN's forehead, "If you are also a member of the organization, you will not forget our biggest limit, which is more important than harm. , insult, slander, murder, what is more unbearable? It is deception! You have been deceiving me from the beginning to the end, and I am a fool who even thought of trusting you! I... will not let you live in this world again superior!"
"Then shoot." To Zhong Ye's surprise, Jin opened his mouth without hesitation.
Zhong Ye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I won't kill people. You stand up and go outside the house."
Jin didn't resist, stood up obediently and left the bedroom.Zhong Ye pointed a gun at him from behind, and the two left the villa one after the other and walked to the lawn outside.
The slightly cold morning wind made Zhong Ye's whole body tremble. He didn't know whether it was because of the cold or anger.Peeking at JIN's cell phone was the only time he peeped into other people's privacy, but this despicable act saved his life.
He finally knew what was causing the uneasy feeling in his heart. He hated Jin for being cruel and ruthless, but hated himself even more for being stupid.He actually held a sliver of expectation, hoping that Jin would become a special person in his heart.
Be the first and be unique to him.
What a stupid idea!
Being pointed at by Zhong Ye's gun, Jin walked slowly across the lawn and towards the cliff away from the villa.From here, you can see the endless forest in the distance, as well as the steep and rugged rocks under your feet.The distance between the cliff and the forest is hundreds of meters, if you fall from here, you will be crushed to pieces.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhong Ye asked in a cold voice, forcing Jin to walk to the edge of the cliff.
"No," Jin shook his head, "Zhong Ye, all these plans are my own will, and I have prepared for your anger. Since it is destined that you will discover my true face, there is no need for me to resist."
"You fucking... you still have the face to pretend to be a victim!" Zhong Ye was furious, "You are so fucking disgusting! I... I have never seen such a Despicable and shameless people!"
"Yeah, I'm despicable and shameless, you don't have to hesitate anymore, just shoot."
"You're so beautiful! You know that I never kill people. Do you want me to kill you and live in regret and guilt for the rest of your life?! I won't be fooled!" Zhong Ye was furious, "You—jump down! From here Jump down! Since you like fate and games so much, let’s take a final gamble! Bet that you will fall to your death, or get lucky and get your life back!”
Watching him silently, Jin took a step back.
A small stone fell from the cliff at his feet and fell into the bottomless abyss.
"Jump quickly!" Zhong Ye took another step closer, the gun in his hand trembling.Tears overflowed from the bottom of his eyes, blurring JIN in his vision, and he blinked desperately to keep the tears from falling.He is a thief, not a killer, and he never puts his enemies to death.But this time he won't forgive JIN, he can't be soft-hearted, if he forgives JIN, if JIN doesn't die here today, Zhong Ye can't imagine how he will seduce and deceive himself!
Staring at Zhong Ye's expression about to cry, Jin's eyes were full of sadness, he shook his head and sighed.
"Zhong Ye, I'm really sorry. It's not my intention to make you so sad, sad, and angry. The truth of everything, you can get the answer at the end. If I can escape from death, I will come again I'm looking for you. At that time, I hope you won't reject me again."
"you……"
Zhong Ye wanted to say something, but it was too late.
Jin's body fell backwards slowly.
The scene of falling in the air was like a slow motion in Zhong Ye's eyes, the cold wind blew the corner of JIN's clothes, and in the blink of an eye, his body fell off the cliff and disappeared from Zhong Ye's eyes.
"JIN!──" Zhong Ye dropped his gun and rushed to the edge of the cliff, but he stopped at the last moment.He forced himself not to look at it, and stayed at the moment of anger, he couldn't regret it.
Facing this liar, he can never regret it.
There was a moment of happiness in the stern cold wind echoing on the cliff.But "Dark Blue", who was destined to be alone, eventually became a lonely person.
Kneeling on the grass, Zhong Ye's fingers grabbed the grass hard.
Sleeping Love Epilogue Zhongjing's Secret (1)
Italy. Rome. Vatican Museum
The Vatican Museums, formerly known as the Pope's court, were built at the end of the fifth century.It has the world-famous Sistine Chapel and the exhibition hall of Raphael, one of the three masters of Renaissance art. The spiral staircase at the exit was designed by Michelangelo himself, attracting countless tourists every day.
And here is the end of Zhong Ye.
In a movable stone slab at the foot of the stairs, Zhong Ye found a bag of things.It contains the famous painting "Venus Dressing", the ruby "Fei Ji", the amber necklace of the Winter Palace, and the authentic clay plate of Gilgamesh.
In addition, there is a video tape.
Jin's death didn't make Zhongye feel relieved, and the mystery surrounding him still hasn't been solved.who is he?Why has his name never been heard in the organization?He has so much information and is so capable, why didn't he kill him right from the start? ...Also, who was the mysterious sender at the beginning?
──The truth of everything, you can get the answer at the final end. ──
Zhong Ye had to pay attention to JIN's last words before jumping off the cliff. He seemed to know what was in the Vatican Museum and concealed it.
Zhong Ye left the museum with that bag of things, and instead of returning to his apartment in Hong Kong, he went to Milan, the capital of fashion.That was the stronghold of the organization, and it was also the place where he was picked up by members of the organization.Mathilde was probably still watching him, he couldn't go home.
Fortunately, he used his savings to buy a property in Milan. Out of nostalgia for the past, he planned to settle here after retiring.The most dangerous place is the safest place, and the organization never thought that he would hide here.
Back at the residence, Zhong Ye stuffed the video tape into the rented VCR, then nestled into the sofa hugging the cushions, staring nervously at the TV screen.The flickering picture in the dark illuminated his pale face, his heart was beating violently, and his lips were a little dry. Even when he debuted and worked for the first time, Zhong Ye had never been so nervous.
After a few seconds of snowflakes, an old picture appeared on the screen.
Zhong Ye opened his eyes slightly, and stood up abruptly.
The cushion bounced a few times against his feet, but he didn't notice it.He had guessed countless times what kind of picture he would see, but he never expected such an ending.
What appeared on the screen was him, the young him, the young him... until he grew into a handsome young man.He staggered through Mathilde's favorite garden, holding someone's hand.
And that person is──JIN.
Jin in the video is much younger than now. He is gentle, handsome and charming, but he is definitely not the appearance of his own brother in Zhongye's memory——Lan Zhongjing.
The content of the screen is almost all scenes of him playing in the garden holding JIN's hand, with no sound in the middle.It was only at the end that Zhong Ye heard himself say a word. It was the last conversation they had before Zhong Jing went out to perform a mission more than ten years ago.
After that, Zhongjing never came back.
In the video, Zhong Ye heard himself say-
"Brother Zhongjing, if I don't recognize you the day you come back, please treat me in the roughest way. Although I can't see with my eyes, I will remember you with my body."
He said this to JIN.
Yes, his eyes couldn't see then.
Zhong Ye slumped to his knees on the floor.He forgot the most important thing, which is also the most critical link to unravel the relationship between Jin and Zhongjing.He couldn't recognize the Zhongjing who appeared now, but he remembered how he was when he was a child. This was not because Zhongjing had changed now, but because he had only seen Zhongjing when he was a child.
From being picked up by members of the organization to when he turned 15 years old, his eyes were blind for several years.
He finally understood everything.
All truths can be answered at the end of the journey, Jin did not lie to him.
The mysterious thief "Dark Blue" has disappeared from the world since that day, and no one knows his whereabouts anymore.He was rumored to have been shot dead by the police in an operation, but this rumor has never been confirmed.
And Zhongye, far away from the criminal world, settled in Milan as ideally, leading a lonely and peaceful life.The terrible organization and Mathilde seemed to have disappeared, never appearing in front of him again.
The apartment in the GE Twin Towers in Hong Kong has become vacant, but every month, Midnight will go there and stay for one night.
Not in his own apartment, but in JIN's room.
It was easy for him to pry open the door, and it was to be expected that it would be empty.He doesn't believe that falling from the abyss can save a life, but Jin is omnipotent, maybe he can really...
no, I can not. JIN is dead.
Zhong Ye didn't regret it, it was Jin who lied to him, he chose the path of death, everything was his own fault.If he could have told the truth earlier and honestly, he would not have ended up like this today.
Drenched in the world of crime since childhood, Zhong Ye believes that he has long forgotten kindness.But he can't forget JIN, if he forces himself not to go to JIN's apartment for a month, he will toss and turn and have nightmares.
This is the punishment he deserved after forcing Jin to death.
This kind of life lasted for more than half a year. That year when Christmas was approaching, Zhong Ye returned to Hong Kong and came to Jin's apartment.He was lying alone on the bed in his bedroom, where the smell of Jin lingered.The smell reminded Zhong Ye of the bits and pieces of their time together, there was life, but also joy.
A familiar heat rose in his body, and the smell of Jin made Zhong Ye feel restless.As he once said, even if his eyes can't see him, his physical senses remember him.
Slowly moving his hands between his legs, Zhong Ye's breathing became a little short.
At this moment, he heard the clicking sound of the door lock being opened.
He jumped up from the bed suddenly: "JIN, is that you?"
There was silence outside the bedroom for a while, and the uninvited guest who entered the apartment did not speak.These few minutes of silence felt like a lifetime to Zhong Ye.He held his breath, hearing the beating of his heart.
Immediately afterwards, he heard that soft, silky voice.
The voice that fascinated him.
"It's me, Zhong Ye. I came back from hell to find you."
A slender and tall figure appeared at the door of the bedroom, and Zhong Ye immediately moved his hand to the lamp switch.However, JIN stopped him with a voice: "Don't turn on the light, I don't want you to see me now."
"why?"
"My face was hurt when I fell off the cliff."
There was a dull pain in his chest, and Zhong Ye lowered his head guiltily.But JIN didn't care, the soft voice was still as leisurely as Zhong Ye remembered: "Isn't this good? It's just like the past. Although you can't see me, you love me deeply."
"JIN, I actually don't understand," Jin's words immediately excited Zhong Ye, "Why did I always regard you as Brother Zhong Jing during the years when I was blind? Where is the real Brother Zhong Jing? Has he already... "
"That's right, the real Zhongjing, he's already dead."
Jin told the truth without hesitation. Although Zhong Ye was prepared, he was still a little sad.
"I was the one who found you in the slums of Milan." JIN continued unhurriedly, "At that time you were huddled together against the trash can in the heavy rain, all of you had a high fever. The one who brought you back Zhongjing passed away on the way, and you burned your optic nerve and became blind in both eyes.”
"Zhong Ye, you don't know how lovable you were at that time, I fell in love with you immediately. I stayed with you for days and nights by the hospital bed, but when you woke up, you held my hand hands, desperately calling me Zhongjing.”
"I don't want to be mistaken by you, but I don't want to make you sad. At that time, you were not yet ten years old, and you were not very sensible. And Zhongjing and I are about the same age. When you are blind, you don't even know that you have mistaken someone. In order to stay by your side, I beg Mathilde not to tell you the truth, let me pretend to be your brother, so that you can live happily."
"I love you very much, but I don't want to love you as an older brother, and I won't use plastic surgery or other things to change myself in order to deceive you. The false brother between us
Graz, the second largest city in Austria, is located on the border between Austria and Hungary. This city was once an important border defense point for Austria in the Middle Ages.Different from other museums, the exhibits of the Graz Armor Museum are not based on types, but on quantity. This museum, built in 1642, still has more than [-] pieces of armor and cold weapons.
In fact, the museum is an armory.
Zhong Ye stood quietly in front of a wall, which was the armor display room on the third floor.The room was densely packed with display items such as breastplates, helmets, neck armors, face armors, etc., but there was only an unnaturally large area where Zhong Ye stood.The moment Zhong Ye stepped into the room, he knew that the message he was looking for was here.
Lifting the spray can in his hand, he gently sprayed the liquid inside on the wall.This is the luminol reagent for testing blood, and Gilgamesh was instructed to do so by a message on the tablet.
After spraying, a chemical reaction occurred on the wall immediately, and a line of fluorescent English words appeared on the surface.Staring at this line of English, Zhong Ye's dark pupils were soaked in a layer of mist.
──Vatican Museums, Spiral Staircase──
This is his next stop, the final stop.All mysteries will be answered there.
"Let's go as soon as you get the message." Jin's voice came from behind. He was holding a plastic bucket in his hand, and the smell of blood wafted out of the bucket.
"What is this?" Zhong Ye covered his nose in disgust.
"Pig blood, you definitely don't want this message to be seen by others, right?" Jin said as he splashed the blood on the wall, and the sticky dark red immediately covered the fluorescence.
Zhong Ye turned and left. The museum was very quiet, and it seemed that Mathilde's men hadn't arrived yet.After escaping from the train, Zhong Ye and Jin rushed to Austria overnight, and finally got the last message before the organization.The outcome has been decided, as long as the English on the wall is covered by blood, the organization will never know the whereabouts of Zhongjing and the artworks.
"What's the matter, you don't seem very happy?" Jin asked in a low voice after catching up with Zhong Ye and walking side by side.
"I don't know... I can find Brother Zhongjing soon, but my heart suddenly feels empty." Zhong Ye lowered his head and pressed his chest.
JIN smiled and kissed him on the face: "The thieving career is coming to an end, it makes you feel empty. But don't be too happy, chasers may appear at any time, the battle is not over yet."
Zhong Ye also smiled, but the smile soon froze on his face.Listening to the flow of air with a tense expression, he kicked JIN: "You crow's mouth."
He is very sensitive to sound, in the supposedly empty museum, there was a slight sound of footsteps at some point.There was more than one person on the other side, there might be dozens of them. He knew that these people could never be security guards.The organization's pursuers came, and he and JIN had to escape, otherwise the organization would have countless tortures to make them speak the content of the message on the wall.
"Get the gun out." He pushed Jin's arm.
"Where is the gun? The sniper rifle used to save you was left on the way." JIN shrugged.
"Why didn't you prepare in advance?" Zhong Ye frowned. He always thought that Jin was omnipotent, but he didn't expect that he would be unable to help at a critical moment.
"What kind of eyes do you have!" Jin pinched him on the face, "I have to find a way to save you, get a sniper rifle, take you away, and arrange a route in advance to catch Matil De came here before. I don't have time to get weapons? Do you think I'm a universal robot?"
"Aren't you?" Zhong Ye rolled his eyes at him, "If you can't help, please stop talking nonsense, I will find a way by myself."
"Forget it, what's the use of you, a little thief who can't even step on ants to death? What else can you do but run away?" Jin said, pulling out two long guns from his backpack as if by magic, and threw them at Zhong Ye. Come here, "Go on!"
"This is...?!" Zhong Ye was holding the gun, and suddenly his face turned pale with shock. What JIN threw to him turned out to be an old matchlock gun, which was exhibited in the museum!
"You can't destroy cultural relics!" He grabbed Jin's shoulder, who was tinkering with a flintlock.The principle of this kind of gun is to ignite the charge with a flint action, which is faster than the matchlock gun, has a small caliber, light weight and low recoil.But no matter what kind of guns are priceless, Jin actually wants to use them to attack Mathilde's men?
"Your Excellency 'Dark Blue', please don't pick and choose at such a critical moment," Jin glanced at him helplessly, "This museum is a ready-made arsenal of weapons, why do we bother to bring weapons in from outside? As long as It is enough to drive away the pursuers, and we must use the resources available around us as much as possible.”
"but……"
"After the matter is over, I will send a check to compensate for the loss of the museum. Is this okay?" Zhong Ye's hesitation was a headache, and Jin pushed him to the corner of the room, "Quick, pile up these things."
"These..." Zhong Ye stared blankly at a pair of armor in the corner, and immediately understood what Jin meant.Each piece of these armors weighs tens of kilograms, thick and strong, and it is perfect for defense.
A few minutes later, a group of men in black suits broke into the third floor.They were dressed exactly like those in St. Petersburg.At this time, the room was completely silent, and there were no figures of Zhong Ye and Jin.
In the middle of the room, several pairs of armor were lined up, and the leading man raised his gun and approached slowly.At this moment, a gunshot sounded from the armor, and a burst of flames exploded in the crowd, and all the black suits immediately retreated to the corner.
Zhong Ye let out a surprised sigh, he didn't expect these ancient cultural relics to be still usable.He and Jin are hiding behind armor, and these metal armors are natural barriers.Unless it was a bazooka, no amount of bullets would hurt a single hair of his head.
"Should we kill them all?" he asked Jin.
"It's not necessary, we'll just hold on until the police arrive."
"The police?! You actually notified the police?"
"The Italian mafia invaded the Austrian museum late at night, why can't passers-by with a sense of justice notify the police?" Jin winked at him, "Tonight's protagonists are those black suits, not 'Dark Blue'. 'Dark Blue' doesn't have any at all." Come."
"...Pfft," seeing the cunning flash in Jin's eyes, Zhong Ye laughed dumbly, and nodded vigorously, "Yes, 'Dark Blue' didn't come at all today, we are passers-by with a sense of justice!"
At this time, there was a violent gunshot in front of him, it was a machine gun!Countless bullets hit the precious armor and were bounced on the ground. The tragic scene made Zhong Ye's heart bleed.The only time, he swore it really was the only time!From now on, he will never attract such a large amount of firepower and let these bastards brutally damage the artwork!
The sound of machine guns and muskets filled the room, and the pungent smell of gunpowder was everywhere.The limestone on the wall was scattered and splashed, and sparks kept splashing from the metal armor.This museum is far away from the busy city, otherwise Zhong Ye would doubt that such a big movement would wake up the residents in a radius of several kilometers.
Just then, behind him, outside the open window, he heard the faint sound of sirens. It was the police.
Red and blue police lights cut through the night sky, and dozens of police cars rushed towards the museum frantically.Unexpectedly, the police would arrive so quickly, and the attacks of the black suits froze for an instant.They never imagined that Zhong Ye and Jin, who were also intruders in the museum, had the guts to contact the police, and they called the police in advance!
The bullets of the matchlock gun in Zhong Ye's hand were almost finished, and he admired Jin's precise calculation from the bottom of his heart.The two exchanged glances, and under the cover of their armor, they slowly backed away from the hail of bullets in their black suits, and jumped out of the window one after the other.
The ropes that Zhong Ye had prepared in advance were hung on the window sill, and there were dense bushes downstairs, and a tall fence with wires next to it.Such a wall couldn't stop Zhong Ye and Jin at all. The two easily crossed the wall with climbing tools, jumped into the forest beside the wall, and quickly disappeared under the cover of trees.
A few hours later, Zhong Ye was already sitting on the bed in the bedroom.This is a villa located in the outskirts of Vienna, Austria, which is JIN's private property.
Zhong Ye was wearing a white bathrobe.The wet black hair was still dripping.He silently stared at the desk in front of him in a daze, the stagnant fog lingering in his pupils.
There are a lot of things randomly thrown on the table, including Zhong Ye's own backpack, a bunch of tools for theft, a laptop, and JIN's and Zhong Ye's own mobile phones.There was a note lying in the middle of the table, on which was written the message that Zhong Ye got from the Armor Museum.
Is this the end?Clues about Zhong Jing are hidden somewhere in the spiral staircase of the Vatican Museum.In a little bit, he will end his career as a thief and reunite with his longing brother.
But what about the feeling of emptiness inside?He has a more sensitive intuition than ordinary people, which brings him a slight fear.
he is afraid?
"What are you staring at alone?" JIN's warm voice came from beside him.He walked out of the bathroom, only wrapped a towel around his waist, and while wiping his hair with the towel, he approached Zhong Ye, leaned over and kissed him on the face.
Zhong Ye dodged uncomfortably, with a slight blush on his cheeks.At this point, it is impossible for him and he is too embarrassed to speak harshly to Jin again, but he has long been used to being alone, and he doesn't know what the right reaction is.
The organization taught him how to live in harmony with strangers and win their favor, but did not teach him how to treat friends.
Jin is his friend ─ ─ should be considered.
"Suddenly you don't look at me like you used to all day long. I'm really not used to it." Jin tenderly bit his ear, stretched his hands restlessly into Zhong Ye's bathrobe, and stroked his body.
"Let go of me... nasty!" Zhong Ye frowned, twisting his waist to resist slightly, "Don't think that when you forced me to say that sentence in the forest that time, it became a fact!"
"That sentence?" Jin deliberately pretended not to understand, "Oh, is it the sentence 'I love you'?"
"You ask the question knowingly!" Zhong Ye felt annoyed.
"Don't worry, I didn't take it seriously, I just wanted to hear what you said," JIN smiled, "I know your personality, although you look innocent and enthusiastic, it's easy for strangers to have feelings for you Favor, but those are the skills that the organization teaches you. In fact, you don’t know how to make friends at all, and you don’t know how to get close to others, do you? So I have to teach you to be friends with me first, and then I can make you become my lover."
"Who will be your lover!" Zhong Ye stood up fiercely, "Don't forget that my work is not over yet! Your task is not considered until you get the final message from the Vatican Museum and find out the whereabouts of Brother Zhongjing Finish!"
Jin looked at him silently, a warm smile slowly disappeared from his face.Zhong Ye felt that he was a little unhappy, why?
"... Zhong Ye, I still mean that," Jin said slowly, staring at Zhong Ye's pupils, "You shouldn't be looking for Zhong Jing so frantically, after so many years, he may not be what you imagined. You’ve wasted ten years of your youth in the criminal world, it’s time to find a new life, you shouldn’t always be living in the past.”
"I have already said that you are not allowed to insult Brother Zhongjing!" A burst of blood surged in his chest, and Zhong Ye was furious, "Don't think that you saved me, and it is nothing special if you help me! Don't always pretend to be you You know everything! What qualifications do you have to judge the current Zhongjing brother? Have you seen him? Do you know what he looks like now? Are you a bug in his stomach, or are you simply him! "
In a fit of anger, he expressed his confusion for a long time, and Zhong Ye was a little flustered for a moment.But Jin's expression didn't change at all, and he shook his head firmly without even hesitating.
"I haven't seen him now, and of course I'm not him. Do you want me to be? Are you interested in sleeping with your own brother?"
"It's none of your business! Since you are not him and have never seen him, what right do you have to suspect that he is different from before? How much hatred do you have for him, and you want to slander him and doubt him like this all day long! Why do you ...Do you want me to give up looking for him? What kind of heart do you have!」
The more Zhong Ye spoke, the more angry he became, as if a big stone was stuck in his chest.
He doesn't want this, he doesn't want to quarrel with Jin, he doesn't want to always have bad words with a person who has helped him many times.He had a little hope that he could live in peace with Jin. JIN has many advantages. He knows a lot of things that Zhong Ye doesn't understand. After Zhong Ye retires, they may become partners. Besides, Zhong Ye has no cleanliness in body and spirit. JIN can make him very comfortable. The current physical relationship It doesn't matter if you keep it up.
But the only thing he doesn't understand, and he can't tolerate, is that Jin seems to have a strong hatred for Zhongjing.
JIN, he seems to hate Zhong Jing.
"Okay, don't talk about this for now." Seeing Zhong Ye's red eyes, JIN shook his head, stretched out his arms and hugged Zhong Ye, and slowly pushed him down on the bed. Seung, let's celebrate first."
Zhong Ye didn't speak, just looked at the ceiling silently.He knew what JIN meant by celebrating, and there was always only one thing he wanted to do.
The nightgown was gently taken off, and the fingers were slowly inserted into the backyard with cold wetness, and spun slowly.When the sensitive part was touched, Zhong Ye gasped provocatively, and began to twist his body. Jin always makes him feel comfortable and happy, and he wishes they could be so happy when they talk.
Soon, the fingers withdrew.When the hard and hot giant was inserted in, Zhong Ye cried out in a low voice, opened his feet actively, and clasped Jin's broad back with his arms.
At this moment, Jin's mobile phone on the table suddenly lighted up silently.
***
Zhong Ye woke up sweating profusely, panting quickly.There was the sound of heart beating in his ears. He seemed to have had a nightmare just now, but he couldn't remember anything.
The side is empty, JIN is not on the bed.The faint light penetrated through the gaps in the curtains, and the night has passed quietly.Zhong Ye couldn't remember how many times he had sex with Jin last night, and in the end he was so weak that he couldn't make a sound, and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep during the process of being inserted.
However, the feeling of uneasiness in my heart still lingers, or in other words, it is more serious.Zhong Ye felt that a corner of his subconscious was ringing an alarm, but he didn't understand where the danger lay.Everything has passed, and the organization does not know the whereabouts of Zhongjing and Artwork, nor where he and Jin are now.Soon he will be reunited with Zhong Jing, what is the cause of this uneasy feeling?
At this moment, Zhong Ye caught something out of the corner of his eye, and Zhong Ye turned his head, only to find that it was Jin's cell phone that had lit up.He knows Jin's habits, his mobile phone has always been kept in a silent state, never disturbing anyone.
Who is looking for him?
Zhong Ye stared fixedly at the phone.
Twenty minutes later, Jin walked in wearing a nightgown.He smelled like food, and he seemed to have gone to make breakfast just now.
Zhong Ye was still sitting by the bed like last night, looking at the pile of things on the table.The laptop was on, but the screen was pitch black.
"Why are you in a daze again? After escaping from the museum, you seem to be not quite right," JIN smiled and hugged Zhong Ye's shoulders, and sat next to him, "You don't look very good either, are you tired? Yes. , when you were in London, you still had a high fever, and you didn't have a good rest all the way..."
"How do you know that I had a high fever when I was in London?" Zhong Ye asked suddenly.
JIN froze for a moment, then smiled confusedly: "Is it strange? I've been tracking your movements, otherwise how could I save you from the train?"
"That's right." Zhong Ye also smiled. He stood up and walked to the desk, gently stroking the keyboard of the laptop with his fingers.
"JIN, I remember you said that I rely on my intuition, the instinct of this animal, to live safely until now. You are right, I can feel maliciousness and danger, this is my relationship with life. The inherent talent is also one of the reasons why the organization chose me. However, after leaving the Armor Museum, I have always felt very uneasy and felt that I was in a huge crisis.”
"What crisis? Did Mathilde discover our hiding place?" Jin frowned.
Zhong Ye shook his head and moved the mouse lightly.The laptop's screen lit up, and a large number of communication records were scrolling quickly on it. Jin's expression froze for a moment, and he noticed that there was a data cable connected to the back of the notebook, and the other end was plugged into his mobile phone.
What was displayed on the computer were his call records in recent months.
All records show the same number.
"I finally understand now, who has been tracking me, trying to sanction me, and even assassinate me," Zhong Ye sneered, "This is Mathilde's dedicated phone number, and you have been talking to me these past few months. She contacted. The one who wanted to kill me was never the fake police in St. Petersburg, nor the men in gray and black suits, the one who really wanted to kill me was—you!"
Jin's lips moved, he wanted to stand up, but Zhong Ye suddenly took out a gun from behind and aimed it at him.
"Zhongye..." Jin called out his name softly.
"Don't call me, you disgusting thing!" Zhong Ye gritted his teeth hard, and the corners of his red eyes overflowed with a little moisture, "You are really scheming, what a sophisticated plan you conceived with Mathilde! In fact, you not only Didn't intend to let me go, didn't even intend to let me continue to live, right?! You told me that you didn't have a weapon on you, so what happened to the gun I found in your luggage?! "
"Midnight..."
"Shut up! Tell me honestly, Mathilde...what is she going to do to me! Where are you going to kill me! Is it in the Vatican Museum? Or...just here!"
"No, you misunderstood." JIN shook his head, and he didn't intend to hide the matter at this point, "Matilde is just helping me, this series of things is my own plan from beginning to end .”
"Zhong Ye opened his eyes slightly, his shoulders were trembling violently, "You...why did you do this...!"
"I want you to forget Zhongjing, I want you to fill my place everywhere in your heart," JIN raised his head, his light gray pupils stared deeply at Zhongye, "Zhongye, I love you. Only this , I never lied to you."
"Do you think I will still believe you!" Zhong Ye exclaimed excitedly, and the muzzle of the gun pressed hard against JIN's forehead, "If you are also a member of the organization, you will not forget our biggest limit, which is more important than harm. , insult, slander, murder, what is more unbearable? It is deception! You have been deceiving me from the beginning to the end, and I am a fool who even thought of trusting you! I... will not let you live in this world again superior!"
"Then shoot." To Zhong Ye's surprise, Jin opened his mouth without hesitation.
Zhong Ye was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No, I won't kill people. You stand up and go outside the house."
Jin didn't resist, stood up obediently and left the bedroom.Zhong Ye pointed a gun at him from behind, and the two left the villa one after the other and walked to the lawn outside.
The slightly cold morning wind made Zhong Ye's whole body tremble. He didn't know whether it was because of the cold or anger.Peeking at JIN's cell phone was the only time he peeped into other people's privacy, but this despicable act saved his life.
He finally knew what was causing the uneasy feeling in his heart. He hated Jin for being cruel and ruthless, but hated himself even more for being stupid.He actually held a sliver of expectation, hoping that Jin would become a special person in his heart.
Be the first and be unique to him.
What a stupid idea!
Being pointed at by Zhong Ye's gun, Jin walked slowly across the lawn and towards the cliff away from the villa.From here, you can see the endless forest in the distance, as well as the steep and rugged rocks under your feet.The distance between the cliff and the forest is hundreds of meters, if you fall from here, you will be crushed to pieces.
"Do you have anything else to say?" Zhong Ye asked in a cold voice, forcing Jin to walk to the edge of the cliff.
"No," Jin shook his head, "Zhong Ye, all these plans are my own will, and I have prepared for your anger. Since it is destined that you will discover my true face, there is no need for me to resist."
"You fucking... you still have the face to pretend to be a victim!" Zhong Ye was furious, "You are so fucking disgusting! I... I have never seen such a Despicable and shameless people!"
"Yeah, I'm despicable and shameless, you don't have to hesitate anymore, just shoot."
"You're so beautiful! You know that I never kill people. Do you want me to kill you and live in regret and guilt for the rest of your life?! I won't be fooled!" Zhong Ye was furious, "You—jump down! From here Jump down! Since you like fate and games so much, let’s take a final gamble! Bet that you will fall to your death, or get lucky and get your life back!”
Watching him silently, Jin took a step back.
A small stone fell from the cliff at his feet and fell into the bottomless abyss.
"Jump quickly!" Zhong Ye took another step closer, the gun in his hand trembling.Tears overflowed from the bottom of his eyes, blurring JIN in his vision, and he blinked desperately to keep the tears from falling.He is a thief, not a killer, and he never puts his enemies to death.But this time he won't forgive JIN, he can't be soft-hearted, if he forgives JIN, if JIN doesn't die here today, Zhong Ye can't imagine how he will seduce and deceive himself!
Staring at Zhong Ye's expression about to cry, Jin's eyes were full of sadness, he shook his head and sighed.
"Zhong Ye, I'm really sorry. It's not my intention to make you so sad, sad, and angry. The truth of everything, you can get the answer at the end. If I can escape from death, I will come again I'm looking for you. At that time, I hope you won't reject me again."
"you……"
Zhong Ye wanted to say something, but it was too late.
Jin's body fell backwards slowly.
The scene of falling in the air was like a slow motion in Zhong Ye's eyes, the cold wind blew the corner of JIN's clothes, and in the blink of an eye, his body fell off the cliff and disappeared from Zhong Ye's eyes.
"JIN!──" Zhong Ye dropped his gun and rushed to the edge of the cliff, but he stopped at the last moment.He forced himself not to look at it, and stayed at the moment of anger, he couldn't regret it.
Facing this liar, he can never regret it.
There was a moment of happiness in the stern cold wind echoing on the cliff.But "Dark Blue", who was destined to be alone, eventually became a lonely person.
Kneeling on the grass, Zhong Ye's fingers grabbed the grass hard.
Sleeping Love Epilogue Zhongjing's Secret (1)
Italy. Rome. Vatican Museum
The Vatican Museums, formerly known as the Pope's court, were built at the end of the fifth century.It has the world-famous Sistine Chapel and the exhibition hall of Raphael, one of the three masters of Renaissance art. The spiral staircase at the exit was designed by Michelangelo himself, attracting countless tourists every day.
And here is the end of Zhong Ye.
In a movable stone slab at the foot of the stairs, Zhong Ye found a bag of things.It contains the famous painting "Venus Dressing", the ruby "Fei Ji", the amber necklace of the Winter Palace, and the authentic clay plate of Gilgamesh.
In addition, there is a video tape.
Jin's death didn't make Zhongye feel relieved, and the mystery surrounding him still hasn't been solved.who is he?Why has his name never been heard in the organization?He has so much information and is so capable, why didn't he kill him right from the start? ...Also, who was the mysterious sender at the beginning?
──The truth of everything, you can get the answer at the final end. ──
Zhong Ye had to pay attention to JIN's last words before jumping off the cliff. He seemed to know what was in the Vatican Museum and concealed it.
Zhong Ye left the museum with that bag of things, and instead of returning to his apartment in Hong Kong, he went to Milan, the capital of fashion.That was the stronghold of the organization, and it was also the place where he was picked up by members of the organization.Mathilde was probably still watching him, he couldn't go home.
Fortunately, he used his savings to buy a property in Milan. Out of nostalgia for the past, he planned to settle here after retiring.The most dangerous place is the safest place, and the organization never thought that he would hide here.
Back at the residence, Zhong Ye stuffed the video tape into the rented VCR, then nestled into the sofa hugging the cushions, staring nervously at the TV screen.The flickering picture in the dark illuminated his pale face, his heart was beating violently, and his lips were a little dry. Even when he debuted and worked for the first time, Zhong Ye had never been so nervous.
After a few seconds of snowflakes, an old picture appeared on the screen.
Zhong Ye opened his eyes slightly, and stood up abruptly.
The cushion bounced a few times against his feet, but he didn't notice it.He had guessed countless times what kind of picture he would see, but he never expected such an ending.
What appeared on the screen was him, the young him, the young him... until he grew into a handsome young man.He staggered through Mathilde's favorite garden, holding someone's hand.
And that person is──JIN.
Jin in the video is much younger than now. He is gentle, handsome and charming, but he is definitely not the appearance of his own brother in Zhongye's memory——Lan Zhongjing.
The content of the screen is almost all scenes of him playing in the garden holding JIN's hand, with no sound in the middle.It was only at the end that Zhong Ye heard himself say a word. It was the last conversation they had before Zhong Jing went out to perform a mission more than ten years ago.
After that, Zhongjing never came back.
In the video, Zhong Ye heard himself say-
"Brother Zhongjing, if I don't recognize you the day you come back, please treat me in the roughest way. Although I can't see with my eyes, I will remember you with my body."
He said this to JIN.
Yes, his eyes couldn't see then.
Zhong Ye slumped to his knees on the floor.He forgot the most important thing, which is also the most critical link to unravel the relationship between Jin and Zhongjing.He couldn't recognize the Zhongjing who appeared now, but he remembered how he was when he was a child. This was not because Zhongjing had changed now, but because he had only seen Zhongjing when he was a child.
From being picked up by members of the organization to when he turned 15 years old, his eyes were blind for several years.
He finally understood everything.
All truths can be answered at the end of the journey, Jin did not lie to him.
The mysterious thief "Dark Blue" has disappeared from the world since that day, and no one knows his whereabouts anymore.He was rumored to have been shot dead by the police in an operation, but this rumor has never been confirmed.
And Zhongye, far away from the criminal world, settled in Milan as ideally, leading a lonely and peaceful life.The terrible organization and Mathilde seemed to have disappeared, never appearing in front of him again.
The apartment in the GE Twin Towers in Hong Kong has become vacant, but every month, Midnight will go there and stay for one night.
Not in his own apartment, but in JIN's room.
It was easy for him to pry open the door, and it was to be expected that it would be empty.He doesn't believe that falling from the abyss can save a life, but Jin is omnipotent, maybe he can really...
no, I can not. JIN is dead.
Zhong Ye didn't regret it, it was Jin who lied to him, he chose the path of death, everything was his own fault.If he could have told the truth earlier and honestly, he would not have ended up like this today.
Drenched in the world of crime since childhood, Zhong Ye believes that he has long forgotten kindness.But he can't forget JIN, if he forces himself not to go to JIN's apartment for a month, he will toss and turn and have nightmares.
This is the punishment he deserved after forcing Jin to death.
This kind of life lasted for more than half a year. That year when Christmas was approaching, Zhong Ye returned to Hong Kong and came to Jin's apartment.He was lying alone on the bed in his bedroom, where the smell of Jin lingered.The smell reminded Zhong Ye of the bits and pieces of their time together, there was life, but also joy.
A familiar heat rose in his body, and the smell of Jin made Zhong Ye feel restless.As he once said, even if his eyes can't see him, his physical senses remember him.
Slowly moving his hands between his legs, Zhong Ye's breathing became a little short.
At this moment, he heard the clicking sound of the door lock being opened.
He jumped up from the bed suddenly: "JIN, is that you?"
There was silence outside the bedroom for a while, and the uninvited guest who entered the apartment did not speak.These few minutes of silence felt like a lifetime to Zhong Ye.He held his breath, hearing the beating of his heart.
Immediately afterwards, he heard that soft, silky voice.
The voice that fascinated him.
"It's me, Zhong Ye. I came back from hell to find you."
A slender and tall figure appeared at the door of the bedroom, and Zhong Ye immediately moved his hand to the lamp switch.However, JIN stopped him with a voice: "Don't turn on the light, I don't want you to see me now."
"why?"
"My face was hurt when I fell off the cliff."
There was a dull pain in his chest, and Zhong Ye lowered his head guiltily.But JIN didn't care, the soft voice was still as leisurely as Zhong Ye remembered: "Isn't this good? It's just like the past. Although you can't see me, you love me deeply."
"JIN, I actually don't understand," Jin's words immediately excited Zhong Ye, "Why did I always regard you as Brother Zhong Jing during the years when I was blind? Where is the real Brother Zhong Jing? Has he already... "
"That's right, the real Zhongjing, he's already dead."
Jin told the truth without hesitation. Although Zhong Ye was prepared, he was still a little sad.
"I was the one who found you in the slums of Milan." JIN continued unhurriedly, "At that time you were huddled together against the trash can in the heavy rain, all of you had a high fever. The one who brought you back Zhongjing passed away on the way, and you burned your optic nerve and became blind in both eyes.”
"Zhong Ye, you don't know how lovable you were at that time, I fell in love with you immediately. I stayed with you for days and nights by the hospital bed, but when you woke up, you held my hand hands, desperately calling me Zhongjing.”
"I don't want to be mistaken by you, but I don't want to make you sad. At that time, you were not yet ten years old, and you were not very sensible. And Zhongjing and I are about the same age. When you are blind, you don't even know that you have mistaken someone. In order to stay by your side, I beg Mathilde not to tell you the truth, let me pretend to be your brother, so that you can live happily."
"I love you very much, but I don't want to love you as an older brother, and I won't use plastic surgery or other things to change myself in order to deceive you. The false brother between us
