night escape

·

Pingnan is located in the south of my country. Winter has always come relatively late. January has just entered winter. The temperature is 20 minus 10, and it drops to [-] degrees overnight.

Liang Ye, who worked on the case all night, no matter how healthy he was, he was no match for the low temperature.He came to Xie Li's house wrapped in cold air, and with the last bit of strength, he only had time to say a few words before falling on Xie Li's body.

He said, "Ah Li...I'm so cold..."

He also said, "Ah Li, I brought you breakfast..."

"Hello, Liang Ye?" Xie Li supported his shoulder with one hand to prevent him from falling down, and touched his forehead with the other hand, it was really hot.

Dr. Xie, who hadn't planned to let people into the house at first, couldn't refuse to see a doctor. He quickly dragged Liang Ye into the house, put him on the sofa, and took out the temperature measurement from the medicine box at home. Yi swept Liang Ye's forehead, and when he confirmed that the temperature was 37.8 degrees, he was slightly relieved.Xie Li found an antipyretic patch and applied it on Liang Ye's forehead. He didn't have a high fever, and he didn't need to go to the hospital for a while. He probably had to work overtime overnight. This morning, his temperature dropped and he caught a cold. Let him stay at home first. Take a break. .

Xie Li took out two quilts from the room and wrapped them heavily around Liang Ye.

After setting up the patients, Xie Li's gaze shifted to the breakfast Liang Ye brought. He touched it with his hand, and it was still very hot. He must have bought it when he came nearby.

I was so dizzy from the fever that I still remembered to buy breakfast.Although Xie Li didn't understand what Liang Ye was thinking, he still calmly took the breakfast to the kitchen to keep it warm.

"Liang Ye, can you hear me? Get up and drink some water." Xie Li handed the water glass to him, seeing that there was no response, he patted his face again, but there was still no response.

Probably because of the fever, Liang Ye slept soundly, only the slightly raised wrinkles between his brows expressed his discomfort.Such a morbid appearance is far from his usual hippie smiling face and unrestrained.Xie Li silently looked at Liang Ye who was sleeping soundly—with such a flamboyant face, he must have caused troubles since he was a child, right?Was it that someone with his personality was born in a solid and warm family, grew up under the care and love of the elders, and was a student surrounded by a large group of friends?

It is said that what kind of growth environment breeds what kind of people, Xie Li spent his childhood in an orphanage, and has a withdrawn personality since he was a child.After he lost his sight when he was a teenager, he basically cut off contact with the outside world. Except for Jiang Qiu and Jiang Heng, no one ever spoke to him for more than ten words—no, there should have been another person in the past, who was very silent like the scorching sun in summer. Just broke into his dark life.

If it is said that everyone has some irreparable regrets in their hearts, then one of Xie Li's "some" is definitely about the boy who has never met.

Why can't I see him when I meet him?

Why did he not exist in the human world after he regained his sight?

Wouldn't that proud and rebellious but affectionate young man feel regretful because Xie Li never saw him?

Xie Li's eyes moved away from Liang Ye's face, and he lowered his eyes and sighed softly.

"Ah Li...why are you sighing?" Liang Ye opened his eyes at some point, and he happened to meet Xie Li's lost eyes - Liang Ye was a little surprised, he read a trace of regret in this eyes.

"Drink some water." Xie Li didn't care about being bumped into by Liang Ye when he was out of order just now, in other words, he didn't care about Liang Ye's opinion of him.

Liang Ye pulled out his hand from the two layers of quilt to take the water glass, took a sip, his eyes were still fixed on Xie Li: "Doctor Xie is in his prime, why is he so old-fashioned like a little old man?"

"Take your cat with you when you recover." Xie Li stood up and sat on the sofa on the other side. They were too close just now.

"Ah Li is so ruthless. My fever hasn't subsided yet, so I'm in a hurry to drive him away." Liang Ye put his hands under the quilt again, rustling, pretending to be afraid of the cold.

Xie Li watched his performance coldly, indifferent.

Suddenly, a small ball of coal jumped onto Xie Li's thigh, stared at Liang Ye with wide eyes, and then carefully "meowed" a few times at Xie Li.

Seeing this, Liang Ye shook his head and sighed, "Oh, look, even cats feel sorry for me!"

Xie Li patted the cat's head, bypassing Liang Ye's nonsense, and asked bluntly, "How do you know I live here?"

Liang Ye smiled and said, "I'm a police officer, Dr. Xie. There have been so many coincidences with you, and now you are my focus."

This is true. Xie Li has indeed been involved in some cases for no apparent reason recently, but he can always pass by key evidence. Even he himself cannot explain this coincidence, so Liang Ye suspects that he is normal .

But Xie Li is not completely clueless, he has a terrible idea in his heart, but he has not dared to confirm it yet.

"What are you thinking about, Ah Li?" Liang Ye lay sideways on the sofa, staring straight at Xie Li, "Do you know that you are very bad at disguising, and you can easily reveal your thoughts?"

Xie Li adjusted the frame of his glasses: "Then Officer Liang, tell me what I'm thinking about?"

"Are you also curious about Yang Zixian's case?"

Xie Li was noncommittal.

At that time, the real Zhao Zhen really looked at Liang Ye with flustered eyes.

"I... I I know..."

"what do you know?"

"Zixian...has...sex...gender cognition disorder since he was a child."

This was what Zhao Zhenzhen told Liang Ye himself before he set off to catch the murderer.

When he was about ten years old, Yang Zixian had already realized the difference between himself and ordinary boys.

When he was in kindergarten, he was very envious of girls who could wear braids and skirts. He also sneaked through girls' skirts and carefully borrowed girls' dolls to comb their hair.He likes everything a girl likes.

In elementary school, he grew up a little bit. He had a quiet personality, gentle manners, and a low voice. Some mischievous boys in the class began to call him "sissy" and call him not a man or a woman.He even asked his mother seriously, is he a boy or a girl?His mother said he was a boy.

He asked again, can he be a girl?His mother said no, he could only be a boy.

He has everything a boy has, but he longs to be a girl.

Since that day, Yang Zixian has been suffering incomprehensible pain.

Soon he followed his mother and remarried to Pingnan. He found out that his stepfather was taking drugs and even led his mother astray.He was still young at that time, and he only knew that if his mother resisted, both mother and child would be beaten to death.Later, my mother stopped resisting and smoked with her stepfather, and didn't care about him much.

After a year or two, Yang Zixian grew up a little more. He went to the police station and reported his stepfather for drug use and domestic violence.The police came and took the stepfather away. Before going to the drug rehabilitation center, the stepfather threatened him: "I knew you didn't want to be a man. You have the ability to wait for me to come out. I will let you be a woman."

Yang Zixian didn't understand what this meant, but he was very scared. He wanted his mother to take him away, but she was already unconscious, and she would also be sent to a drug rehabilitation center.

Not a year later, when his stepfather returned home after quitting drugs, Yang Zixian finally understood what he meant that day.

After that day, he never wanted to be a girl again.

But I don't want to be a boy...

Later, his mother also came back. He didn't know if his mother knew what he had experienced, but the way his mother looked at him also changed. She hated him and didn't want to care about him anymore.

In this way, he grew up to high school day after day under the torture of his stepfather and the numbness of his mother.

He read a lot of books and took a lot of exams, but he failed to have a better life.However, he met new people on campus, such as Zhao Zhenzhen who was marginalized like himself.

"He...he told me...he wanted to die..." Zhao Zhenzhen anxiously wrote and drew on the paper, explaining her stupid mouth, and two lines of tears flowed from her eyes.

After learning about Yang Zixian's experience and suicidal thoughts, Zhao Zhenzhen didn't know how to persuade him.Because of her stupid mouth, Yang Zixian has always said that she is responsible for being a "trash can" and listening quietly.

She didn't tell anyone about Yang Zixian's secret. Her twin sister Zhao Jiajia had met her sister and Yang Zixian a few times, and occasionally slipped some words out of Zhao Zhenzhen's mouth, which gave her the opportunity to lie later.

"What happened next?" Liang Ye asked patiently.

Later, Yang Zixian told Zhao Zhenzhen that he didn't want to die. If his stepfather and himself could only live together, he hoped it would be him.Yang Zixian got the contact information of "Reaper" by accident, and "Reaper" also agreed to help him formulate a careful murder plan.

Later, through the channel provided by "Reaper", Yang Zixian successfully purchased poison from another supplier in the "Blind Spot" and brought it home... However, Liang Ye did not tell Xie Li the following details, he was just vague generalized.

Xie Li asked: "Then how did his mother die?"

Liang Ye shook his head and sighed: "Based on the physical evidence at the scene, his mother probably relapsed from drug addiction, so she ate it by mistake."

After listening to Yang Zixian's story, Xie Li was silent for a long time, his expression didn't change much, he just lowered his head and stroked the smooth fur of the little black cat for a while.

"A Li, aren't you curious, how did Yang Zixian get the contact information of 'Death'?"

Xie Li came back to his senses: "How did you get it?"

Liang Ye was lying on the sofa with his back facing the sky. He didn't look at Xie Li again, but smiled slightly at the blank ceiling of Xie Li's house: "According to Zhao Zhenzhen's testimony, we learned that the first time Yang Zixian contacted 'Reaper' was at After seeing the ophthalmologist for the first time."

Xie Li stopped stroking the cat, and looked at Liang Ye inexplicably.

"What do you mean?"
