It is suspected that some people make counterfeit medicines, make fake receipts, and sell domestically produced medicines as targeted medicines purchased from agents to patients.The first thing he suspects is the discarded packaging box and a page of water-soaked orders that he found in the garbage dump outside Tao Yibo's small workshop.Pei Xu has already managed to get the pills to be sent for testing. Although the test results haven't come out yet, he already feels that the results are in line with what he guessed—a scum like Tao Yibo cannot suddenly change his temper.That small workshop that produces health products must be hiding darker transactions.

"Is it boring to hear what I'm talking about?" Pei Xu said a little embarrassedly, "If you were talking about writing codes with me, I would have rolled my eyes a long time ago."

"Of course it won't be boring." Zhong Jurui used to be a family member of a cancer patient, and he had a burst of empathy, hating this kind of criminal who made money from life.He understands the feelings of these families very well. Firstly, imported medicines cannot be afforded, and secondly, it may take several years for imported medicines to enter the domestic market and pass clinical tests and approvals. No patient can afford this time.Such a family is pitted, it is really devoid of conscience.

Pei Xu stared at Zhong Jurui's expression, as expected, only saw gentle eyes, and finally felt relieved.

An emergency phone call, Pei Xu signaled Zhong Jurui to take care of himself. "You should watch TV first." Pei Xu pressed the remote control casually, then walked back to the bedroom to answer the phone.

Zhong Jurui clicked on a channel at random, and didn't pay attention to the plot, just staring at the screen.

——Pei Xu, full of vitality and sense of justice, is so fucking charming.

Investigative journalists are sometimes like detectives - looking for clues in the garbage, sometimes like secret agents - go undercover when needed, sometimes like the police - some messy informants provide clues that don't work , Sometimes it's like a neighborhood committee - while making clichés, you need to mediate at the same time.For Pei Xu, most of the time, he is ordinary and nothing special. After the conference call with the boss, he still has to answer Pei Han's phone call.

Probably because Tao Yibo, who was investigating recently, had some connection with Pei Han, so he replied absent-mindedly with a guilty conscience.

"Will you go home next weekend for the winter solstice? Cook glutinous rice balls at home." Pei Han, a southerner, said.At the same time, his wife, a northerner, protested from the other end of the phone: "No! Eat dumplings during the winter solstice!"

Before Pei Xu could reply, he heard Pei Han say to Sister Xue again: "You guys eat dumplings every day, aren't you tired? We two southerners are against you and a northerner, 2:1, listen to us."

Sister Xue yelled again: "I'm one against two, 2 to 2 tie, what you say doesn't count."

Pei Xu scratched his hair speechlessly, opened the bedroom door, and saw Zhong Jurui standing in front of a pair of words in the living room, standing upright, and said impatiently: "I will bring another southerner back, now it is 3 to 2, We eat glutinous rice balls."

Pei Han was very wary of the words "bringing people home", and asked, "Who are you taking? Male or female?"

Pei Xu sneered at him: "You say it's a coincidence, my ex-boyfriend and I met again. After a long time, with my old ticket, I probably still have to board that broken ship."

Zhong Jurui turned around when he heard the words, saw Pei Xu's radiant expression, and suddenly smiled too.

The words hanging in Pei Xu's living room are not poems or auspicious words, but like names.Wang Keqin, Liu Hu, Jian Guangzhou, Qiu Ziming, Jing Jianfeng, Fan Youfeng, Cheng Yizhong, Qu Changying...

"What is this?" Zhong Jurui asked.

"My calligraphy looks good, right? I will write Spring Festival couplets for you for free in the future." Pei Xu said.

"Who are these people?"

"The watchman at the bow, the person who warned me. Let's not talk about this." Pei Xu sat back on the sofa and saw that "The Temptation of Going Home" was broadcast on TV, so he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Look, this is your Is it your intention?"

Zhong Jurui said frankly: "I tuned it casually, this one seems to be quite nice."

Put the slap plot on the screen.

Zhong Jurui sat next to Pei Xu and said, "This is really a big scene. It's interesting. In jargon, isn't this called dramatic tension?"

Pei Xu felt his eyes go dark, and couldn't help but confirm it again: "Do you really think this is good? What other dramas do you think are good?"

Zhong Jurui recalled it for a while, and said a little shyly: "Have you heard of "Unforgettable"? I used to watch it with my mother-in-law."

Pei Xu said: "What kind of middle-aged and elderly movie-reading aesthetics are you? Look down on you."

Zhong Jurui said: "Then what do you say looks good?"

He looked a little unhappy, his brows were furrowed and his lips were pursed.But it may not be unhappy, Zhong Jurui looks like this when he has no expression.

Pei Xu traced the shape of Zhong Jurui's lips with his eyes for a while, and said, "You look good." He rubbed his thumb against the pulp of his index finger, as if he wanted to suppress the inexplicable itch in his blood, and he watched Zhong Jurui's gradual changes. The red ears are like a cat staring at the thread ball intently.

The atmosphere became weird, and Zhong Jurui couldn't help swallowing.

Pei Xu lowered his head and licked his tiger teeth, looking at Zhong Jurui's sharp knuckles, wondering what he was thinking.

Perhaps the alarm had been lifted, Zhong Jurui adjusted his sitting posture slightly, and was about to sit upright, but was held down again, and the next second, Pei Xu kissed his slightly moving Adam's apple.

Pei Xu is a master when it comes to having flowers and beards.

When Zhong Jurui left, he still maintained the expression of "I am a person who has seen big scenes, a mere kiss can do nothing for me".

—Something else might happen if the kiss goes back.The two of them are familiar with each other and know each other well.But tacitly, nothing happened.

Zhong Jurui just messed up Pei Xu's hair, and put his hand on the back of Pei Xu's neck without taking it off. The two of them even watched an episode of "The Temptation of Going Home" quietly.Probably because he was afraid that Zhong Jurui's ruthless hands would break his own neck, Pei Xu didn't say a word of nonsense.

Zhong Jurui went downstairs in a rather happy mood. It was too cold outside, so he didn't ask Pei Xu to see him off.

He walked quickly in the cold winter wind, thinking happily: "Oh, what's the matter with him being so obsessed with me? I won't be ashamed to call him a scumbag from now on."

☆、Chapter 64

Zhong Jurui dreamed of her mother-in-law.

In fact, he doesn't often dream about his mother-in-law.He used to hope that the little old lady would be more attentive when he was dreaming, but later he felt that it would be better if he didn't come. If he lived well there, he would probably not think about him.But he actually dreamed at night.

He dreamed that his mother-in-law asked him to hunt pagoda trees, and he said it was winter, so there were no pagoda trees. The mother-in-law stood at the door with her waist in her arms, and said that she saw them on the way home, and there must be some, and urged him to go.Zhong Jurui had no choice but to find a plastic bag and a slender bamboo pole, and went to the embankment.

The big locust trees by the embankment were in full bloom, rustling when the wind blew.He was almost fainted by the aroma.

The mother-in-law was standing below as a supervisor, and they happily made a lot of flowers.The mother-in-law stroked the low branches.When picking up the flowers into a plastic bag, Zhong Jurui became a little puzzled, her mother-in-law had passed away a long time ago, what happened.He stared at the old lady, wanting to see some clues, and then asked if there was any shadow or feet on the old lady, but there was no clue at all!Pinch yourself hard, it hurts!Pain is not a dream!Zhong Jurui became happy, it turned out that her mother-in-law was fine!

He said to his mother-in-law: "I seem to have a dream. In the dream, you died of illness and scared me to death. Fortunately, you are fine."

The mother-in-law laughed and scolded him: "What are you talking about, am I standing right in front of you?"

"You won't leave this time, will you?" Zhong Jurui said.

The mother-in-law said: "I won't leave now!"

The scenery on the road became blurred, and their grandparents said something, and their words became very soft.Zhong Jurui seemed to be sitting on the rattan chair in the yard again, and her mother-in-law came in on a bicycle and said, "The winter solstice is here, let's make glutinous rice balls."

The glutinous rice balls at Zhongjurui's house are all handmade by her mother-in-law. They are big white glutinous rice balls with no fillings. They are boiled and eaten with sugar.Zhong Jurui sat there eating glutinous rice balls, and vaguely remembered that Pei Xu had also invited him to spend the winter solstice, so he told his mother-in-law that he had to go to Pei Xu.

The mother-in-law said: "Go! Call him to come home later. I planted a lot of Sophora japonica flowers today. I will make some cakes. Ask him if he eats anything else. Call home and tell me. I will prepare it first." .”

Zhong Jurui agreed and went, walking slowly in the alley, looking back several times worriedly, he saw the old lady watching him with a smile at the door.

"Go to Xuxu's house first! Come back earlier!" The mother-in-law waved her hands from a distance.

Zhong Jurui was walking alone in the alley, and suddenly he wondered, where are the Sophora japonica flowers in the winter solstice!Turned around and ran home again, but couldn't find the old lady no matter what, ran and woke up.He touched the small tapestry, but he still couldn't tell whether he was in a dream or in reality.Sit up and gradually regain consciousness.

Such an endless dream.Zhong Jurui thought, if you come to see me, you should tell me how you are doing. If you are short of money, I can burn more paper money for you. What are you doing here to make some glutinous rice balls?You seldom dream, it is rare to have a warm one, and it is so short, why are you so busy in your dream, and you refuse to rest?

He suddenly felt uncomfortable.I don't really want to cry, just uncomfortable.

The pain of the loss of a loved one disappeared, and there was no more grief, and those thoughts were turned into extremely ordinary fragments, which pierced my heart hard in the middle of the night, and I had no sleep all night.

This year, the winter solstice dropped sharply, and Pei Han's family finally had dumpling stuffing and glutinous rice balls on the table.Pei Han yawned while making dumplings, and the overlord who yelled that she had to eat dumplings during the winter solstice stayed up all night to hand in the drawing, so she would still be sleeping in bed, sleeping indiscriminately.The windows were covered with fog due to the huge temperature difference between inside and outside. Pei Han raised his eyes to look out, but couldn't see anything.

The TV news broadcasted that the Food and Drug Control Bureau's test results of the drug powder of a certain targeted drug showed that the purity of the drug was seriously not up to standard, and the Market Inspection Bureau has intervened in the investigation.

Pei Han was busy with work a few days ago, so he didn't pay attention to the latest current events, so he didn't know that a small stone was thrown into the lake a few days ago, and some family members of the victim surrounded a factory in another place, causing three or four police cars to go to maintain law and order. This made a lot of noise on the Internet, which caused today's waves.And this little pebble replied to him in the family group yesterday that he would be home in the evening.

He made dumplings in an orderly manner, carefully kneading the dumpling skins together, but he didn't wait for the boy Pei Xu and Pei Xu wanted to bring back.

Pei Xu stood behind Sang Xiaojun, looked at the materials Sang Xiaojun had collected, ate a piece of ham sausage with relish, and was called into the office by Zhong Nanping.

Zhong Nanping is also an old smoker, and has a lot of good cigarettes hidden in the cabinet in the office.

Pei Xu watched him take out a pack of cigarettes and sighed: "Mr. Zhong, my sister-in-law told us about the shadows in your lungs during the physical examination last time. If you see you smoking, you will be rewarded if you report it to your sister-in-law."

Zhong Nanping threw a box for Pei Xu to catch: "Shut up if you take it!"

Pei Xu took a look, and it was indeed a good brand that he was reluctant to buy. He stuffed the cigarette neatly into his coat pocket, and said solemnly: "I am upright and professional, how could I be bought by such a small favor like you? I have to sue my sister-in-law."

"Virtue. Then return the cigarette to me." Zhong Nanping scolded with a smile.He and Pei Xu are both teachers and friends, and they don't usually put on airs.

Zhong Nanping called him here because he wanted him to be careful.Over the years, he has seen too many colleagues fail to end well, and those who have changed careers in frustration have already ended well.Originally thought it was just an ordinary counterfeit drug case, Zhong Nanping got wind that someone wanted Tao Yibo to take the blame.

——The big case a few years ago was not small, especially after Pei Han's accident, many colleagues in the industry were outraged and fanned the flames very high. At that time, a large number of people were involved. Tao Yibo was able to stand alone in it, which can be seen in the background very hard.Now that he has more power than before, but there are rumors that he is going to do the job, Pei Xu smells something unusual.

If it was because Tao Yibo didn't end in the past because beating dogs depended on the owner, then now Tao Yibo is going to end because the owner can't keep him, or... the owner will soon become a dog in the water.

Zhong Nanping has a wide network of contacts, and he heard some secret letters. Although they have not been confirmed, it is estimated that the crime will happen in the next two days.He had heard of Tao Yibo, he was not a man with a bodhisattva heart, although he was full of Rinpoche, he was the most ruthless, and it was hard to guarantee that the dog would jump the wall and do something.

Pei Xu smiled and said: "He will be lying in ambush from all sides and he will not be able to protect himself. I am afraid it will not be easy to get rid of himself in a hurry. How can he want me? If he has time to think of me, he might as well pray to God and worship Buddha."

Zhong Nanping sighed, and said: "A good literary worker, how can he live like a knife-edge licking blood, and he is worried." He also said, "My first junior was joking with me two days ago, saying that we should pray to God and worship Buddha. One is to pay homage to Avalokitesvara to ensure safe entry and exit, and the other is to worship Li Guang, after all, Li Guang is hard to seal."

Both of them smiled wryly.

After chatting with Pei Xu, he was about to leave, Zhong Nanping said: "The small room in our office has bunk beds and quilts. Anyway, Xiaojun has taken root in the office recently, why don't you hang out here for a few days, come and do it with him. A partner, let’s wait for the muddy water to pass. Now that the storm is on the cusp, you live alone in such an old and dilapidated community, which makes people worry."

"It's okay. Today is the winter solstice. I'm going back to my brother's house. If I didn't come to explain to you, I wouldn't come to the office at noon on the big weekend. I didn't even have lunch."

Zhong Nanping said: "Tao Yibo has a criminal record. Don't you know what's going on in your heart? What happened to your brother... If it wasn't for the hard background, would the only one be in prison be the driver? Be careful driving like a million years."

"Okay, why are you so old, you are less courageous than a mouse." Pei Xu smiled, and was about to leave with a ragged backpack on his back very chicly. When passing by, Sang Xiaojun also blew a kiss, wishing him an early escape from the sea of ​​suffering.Originally, he wanted to meet Zhong Jurui directly and go back together, but Zhong Jurui was still working overtime today, even though he asked for leave and said he would leave early, he had to leave at five o'clock at the earliest.Pei Xu suddenly freed up for another period of time.He wandered around to find a restaurant with braised chicken and rice, and after eating two large portions, he hiccupped and found a small book stand on the side of the road to buy books.

After wandering around for two hours, Zhong Nanping's call came after him again.

"Something happened. Tao Yibo's secretary died."

Standing in front of the suspense novel bookcase, Pei Xu asked, "When did it happen? How did you die?"

"Not in the morning. Someone called me just now, and I don't know anything about it now, I only heard that he died at home."

"Don't scare yourself, maybe it's a heart attack?" Pei Xu comforted palely.

When Zhong Nanping got new news, he immediately informed Pei Xu that the internal rumors that had not been confirmed before were probably confirmed, and that Tao Yibo was also involved in the fake vaccine incident.

"Fake vaccine?" Pei Xu had never heard of this.His previous investigations were all limited to targeted drugs, and he only found fake targeted drugs involving more than 07 million yuan. He didn't find that the small factory also made vaccines. Who knows what is involved in this.However, when it comes to vaccines, the first reaction in his mind is Wang Keqin. In 3, many child deaths caused by vaccines in Shanxi were concealed and not reported until three years later, Wang Keqin of the China Economic Times finally revealed the chaos of the vaccine after half a year of on-site investigation. Less than two months after the disclosure, the General Manager of the Economic Times The editor was removed, the incident investigation team was disbanded, and Wang Keqin himself was dismissed. The iron fist formed a chilling effect. This incident became an opportunity for the decline of investigative journalists in mainland China.However, this is not the first vaccine issue, nor will it be the last. Pei Xu has counted the past ten years, and it has been endless.Now there is another one?I really don't know whether to mourn for my colleagues or for the common people.

Pei Xu's heart was cold.

Drinking ice for ten years is hard to cool your blood.Really?Is it really not cold?

He was no longer in the mood to buy books.

"This is really a desperate situation." Zhong Nanping commented.

Zhong Nanping received limited news, so he hung up the phone and told him that there were new developments before we would let him know.

Pei Xu took the bus home with a cigarette in his mouth.It gets dark early in winter, at four o'clock in the afternoon, the sky is a little blue.There are no people in the community - this community is old and dilapidated, except for a few local elderly people, most of them are rented to migrant workers, and they may not be able to rest on Sundays.

Pei Xu went back with heavy steps, and found out the vaccine reports that he had sorted out before, wanting to see the previous cases.

Someone knocked on the door, and Pei Xu opened it. It was a dark-skinned middle-aged man, wearing a down jacket with a shiny collar, holding a notebook, and smiling honestly: "Hi, I read the water meter."

Pei Xu let out an "oh" and stepped aside.The man nodded and bowed and had to close the door.

The phone rang again, and it was Zhong Nanping who picked it up.

"Fuck! The secretary was strangled to death in the study. It's not an easy matter."

Pei Xu's heart suddenly tugged.It suddenly occurred to him that he had rented a house here for a few months, and he had never encountered anyone entering the house to check the water meter. In their broken community, in order to prevent residents from stealing water, the water meters were installed outdoors on the first floor!Then where did the water meter come from!

Goosebumps crawled up his back, and he was about to turn around to question when a hemp rope was strung around his neck. Before he could turn around to see the man's face clearly, he was pushed against his knees and threw himself on the ground, unable to move. tense.

☆、Chapter 65

Looking out from the floor-to-ceiling windows, it was another gloomy day, and I don't know when it started to rain lightly.Zhong Jurui didn't bring an umbrella, and was a little inexplicably irritable.I didn't sleep well last night, and the sequelae are swollen and sore eyes.

Du Ang packed his things furtively.Zhong Jurui took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, and asked, "Why are you going?"

"There is something at home, my wife asked me to go back." Du Ang said, "The big leaders are all on business trips to the capital, so it's okay to leave one day early."

"I have something to do today, can you give me a ride?" Zhong Jurui took out his satchel from the drawer at his feet, "Just take it to the nearby subway station."

"That's too much to see, I'll send the Buddha to the west, where are you going?"

Pei Xu struggled hard.But because of his distorted posture, he still couldn't escape the restraint. The assailant was undoubtedly a rough man who worked hard, and he was more than enough to deal with a scholar like Pei Xu.

The moment he was thrown down, the phone fell from his hand and slid out of reach of his arm, and the screen was shattered.Pei Xu couldn't expect Zhong Nanping on the other end of the phone to come immediately after hearing something, maybe he would hang up the phone automatically the moment the phone fell.

Pei Xu's vision began to blur, and he hit the man's eyes hard with his elbow while turning over. In exchange for a few seconds to relax, he quickly got up, endured a severe cough, picked up a chair, and went to attack Pei Xu staggered to open the door while the person was staggered.

However, the broken door was broken at this critical moment, Pei Xu yanked the doorknob but failed to open it.

Hold!Pei Xu scolded ten thousand words in his heart.

In just this second, the assailant regained the upper hand, picked up the chair on the ground, and slammed it on Pei Xu's head with a bang. There was a muffled sound in the back of Pei Xu's head, and he almost knelt down in pain.The man came over panting, held him down again, put on the rope again, and tightened the moving knot.

Pei Xu's face was flushed red, the veins on his forehead were bulging, his eyes were almost filled with bloodshot eyes, he was suppressed, his chin was slammed on the floor, and he could smell the damp smell of the ground.The deep fear of death filled the whole heart in an instant.

Pei Xu's brain lacked oxygen, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down quickly because of being strangled by the rough rope, trying to squeeze in a trace of oxygen.His hand groped blindly, and suddenly he reached for a small knife handle—it was an extremely small fruit knife. He threw it on the side of the tea table after cutting the apples someday, and he couldn't find it later. It fell on the foot of the sofa.But the handle of the knife was one centimeter short, so I couldn't hold it in my hand.

Maybe I'm going to die here today.

Pei Xu thought so.His face had turned purple, and tears flowed unconsciously from the corners of his eyes.

He kicked his legs hard, and finally crawled forward a little bit, this time he held it!

Backhand poke back!

- dong dong dong!

It's a knock!

Is it a hallucination or a real knock?

Zhong Jurui ran all the way into the building from the gate of the community. The community looked deserted, probably because of the rainy weather in winter, and there were few people walking outside.

He called Pei Xu, but no one answered, and no one came to answer the door.

"Pei Xu?" Zhong Jurui knocked on the door.

There was a muffled sound from inside.It's like someone fell on the ground.

Zhong Jurui knocked on the door again suspiciously, suddenly having a very bad premonition in his heart.He didn't wait for Pei Xu to open the door, just like Pei Xu pushed open the door last time, he twisted the doorknob with one hand and slammed his shoulder in.

Pei Xu's backhand knife didn't hurt the assailant, but because he was holding the knife handle too hard, he cut his palm open.The assailant wanted to take the knife, but the two were deadlocked.Due to being distracted from grabbing the knife, most of the strength in pulling the rope was lost, Pei Xu finally had a chance to breathe, and his face softened a little.

The banging on the door grew louder.

The strength in holding the knife is also comparable——Pei Xu's survival instinct prevailed. Although his strength is not as strong as that of the middle-aged man, but at this moment, the middle-aged man is worried that someone will come in outside the door. He is half-hearted and falls behind for a while .

boom--

Zhong Jurui crashed in, because there was no buffer, he fell a big somersault the moment he came in, his elbows landed on the ground, a layer of oily skin rubbed off his wrists, and he grinned in pain.He saw the situation clearly at a glance, crawled and rolled over to help, still shouting "Come here!".

The assailant knew that it would be impossible to get anything done, so he simply gave up on the rope, grabbed the knife with his hands, and stabbed Pei Xu in the stomach.Zhong Jurui hugged the man from behind, feeling a coldness in his heart, he had no experience in fighting, his chin was hit by someone and he struggled away, thinking of Pei Xu curled up beside the sofa, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't have the heart to chase him. The man broke through the door and ran away.

Pei Xu's hands and face were covered with blood.

Zhong Jurui's hands were shaking all the time, while shouting for someone to come, while tremblingly calling for an ambulance.

"I'm fine." Pei Xu turned over with difficulty, the blood on the palm looked profuse, and there were no bones, so it probably wasn't a serious injury.Zhong Jurui quickly opened Pei Xu's clothes to check if he was injured. Fortunately, the winter clothes were thick, and the knife was mostly blocked by the sweater. Only the tip of the knife was stabbed obliquely into the waist, and a hole could be seen. It was not long, but a little deep.

Zhong Jurui stammered to report the location to 120, pressed to stop the bleeding under the command of the dispatcher, and quietly hugged Pei Xu from behind.

His hands were cold, so he could only breathe out to warm his palms, and touch Pei Xu's face.

Pei Xu sighed, and said, "I don't think I'm that serious, why do you look like you're going to be a widow?"

"You feel ass, are you a doctor? You just feel it. Don't talk." Zhong Jurui said, "Be honest and don't move, or I won't deal with more blood."

"Scared you?" Pei Xu's face was pale, and his lips were bloodless, but he still forced a smile and said, "If I confessed here today, would you regret it all your life, and would you be a little bit of the joy of the rest of your life? Don't you have a few words to confess?"

Zhong Jurui said with a cold face: "Please tell me that you are paralyzed. You have been a scourge for thousands of years, but you can still live."

His voice was so calm, as if he had recovered from the fright, and there was no trace of abnormality, but if Pei Xu turned around, he would see him crying.

Pei Xu took the time to call the police before 120 arrived.He felt that he was too heroic. He received the sword with his bare hands, punched the town of Kansai, and could calmly cover the bleeding hole while calling to report the crime, very much like a Hong Kong film boss.

The chest of Zhong Jurui's clothes was already a small patch of dark red—the back of Pei Xu's head was also cut open, and he didn't notice it at first, but when he saw the dark brown blood clot on his chest, he felt his feet go limp for a while.It wasn't until Pei Xu entered the emergency room that his processor started to work again, and he began to act step by step.

Say hello to Pei Han, lest they wait in vain.Fortunately, although the screen of Pei Xu's phone was cracked, he didn't delay making calls. The lock screen password of this phone is still the same as before, and it hasn't been changed over the years.Zhong Jurui found Pei Han's number and told them about the accident.As expected, Pei Han and his wife were so frightened that they were about to leave immediately.

Greet Pei Xu's leader again.This was what Pei Xu told him to call Zhong Nanping quickly and tell him about his situation.In fact, Zhong Nanping had already arrived near Pei Xu's community - the phone was hung up suddenly before, and no one answered when he called back, Zhong Nanping was also very upset.Knowing that Pei Xu was just traumatized, a stone fell to the ground and hurried back.He said that Tao Yibo had nothing to do with this matter, and Zhong Jurui didn't know more about the inside story, so the two of them couldn't go on talking.

Zhong Jurui asks for leave for himself again—and suddenly finds that the annual leave he has saved is very considerable, which is probably the only thing to be happy about in a gloomy day—although the inhumane company has a series of requirements for vacation, Zhong Jurui cannot immediately become a shopkeeper , I have to go to work as usual tomorrow.

After making scattered phone calls, Zhong Jurui finally took the time to wash off the blood on his hands.His mind seemed to be overloaded and hot, and it would be empty.

Zhong Jurui never thought that one day he would bump into the crime scene, and when he recovered, he was afraid to start.He thought a lot, but didn't dare to think too much, so he scratched his hair anxiously, thinking, as soon as Pei Xu came out, he would have an open and honest talk—wait a minute is the biggest bullshit in the world, you and me They are all ordinary people, there is no chance to wait, those beautiful things are not waiting for others.I can't wait, I have to grab it now.

— yet he was not able to talk about it either.

Pei Xu's head was shaved bald, and the wounds on his head and left waist were debrided and stitched a few times.I don't know if it was because of the anesthesia, or because I was tired from bleeding too much and had already fallen asleep.The doctor said that he was worried about intracranial hemorrhage and would be hospitalized for observation for a few days.There were no other major traumas, which was lucky.

Zhong Jurui just looked at his sleeping face in a daze.

When Pei Han and his wife came, Pei Xu still didn't wake up, and no one called him. Several people watched him for a while, and then tiptoed to the corridor again.

Pei Han didn't expect to see his "sister-in-law" in this situation, and he didn't have Pei Xu in the middle, so he said rather embarrassingly: "Thank you for your hard work, you are also frightened, go back and rest quickly, we will take care of you here."

Zhong Jurui said: "I...can I not leave? I will also be out of my mind when I go back, so I might as well stay here."

When he replied, he stood upright, like a student who deserted in class and was called up to answer the teacher's questions.Sister Xue couldn't help but want to laugh.

They saw Pei Xu turn over with frowning through the window, and turned back in pain.

Zhong Jurui wished he could suffer for Pei Xu, and he should not talk to Pei Han anymore, his eyes only stared inside.Seeing that the pair of mandarin ducks were inseparable, Pei Han stepped back and said that they would stay with them for a while, and let Zhong Jurui change clothes and have dinner before coming back.Who knew that Zhong Jurui would not go out to have a good meal, bought a box of fried rice and came back.

"I don't have any appetite now either." Zhong Jurui smiled bleakly.

So the three of them sat down around Pei Xu again, silently staring at Pei Xu's sleeping face.Fortunately, after ten o'clock, Zhong Nanping came.Zhong Nanping knew Pei Han, he gestured to Pei Han, and the two walked away to talk.

Sister Xue saw Zhong Jurui's staring eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Is he usually mean-spirited? Do you ever want to beat him to death?"

Zhong Jurui: "..."

——The psychological quality of this family is too strong.Before, there was Pei Xu who was holding his wound and smiling, and later, there was Sister Xue who asked such inappropriate questions.Zhong Jurui found it difficult to cope.

Pei Xu woke up earlier than usual.His brother and sister-in-law went back last night and came to pick up Zhong Jurui's shift in the morning.Zhong Jurui dozed off in a daze in the middle of the night, washed his face with cold water early in the morning, and guarded it like an old monk in meditation.

Pei Xu rolled his eyeballs and opened his eyes. Zhong Jurui held his fingers and asked him if there was any pain, whether he was hungry or thirsty.

Pei Xu seemed very weak and said: "Water..."

Zhong Jurui quickly poured a small cup, blew on the hot air, and brought it to Pei Xu's mouth.

Pei Xu looked at Zhong Jurui, blinked his eyes, and after drinking enough water, Pei Xu asked with deep doubts: "Who are you? Who am I?"

As if struck by lightning, Zhong Jurui stood up numbly.

Pei Xu looked around and said, "What year is this? Why can't I remember anything?"

Zhong Jurui frowned and stared at Pei Xu's face, then suddenly Zhanyan sat back, took an apple, and slowly began to peel it.

"You may have lost your memory." Zhong Jurui said, "Yesterday the doctor said that there may be blood in your head, which probably pressed your hippocampus."

Pei Xu said "Oh" and said, "Hippocampus? Why do I only know about the cavernous body?"

——The person who claims to have amnesia, Huang Huang does not change.

Zhong Jurui said, "Do you still remember me?"

"You look very kind, but I really can't remember who you are." Pei Xu grinned from the pain of the wound.

"Oh, I'm your father." Zhong Jurui said.

"You lied to me. How could my father be so young?" Pei Xu said.

"It's true, I am your adoptive father, and I picked you up from the trash."

Pei Xu blinked and said, "Really? Then why do I feel that we have an unusual relationship? Look at my hand, hey, I can't help but want to touch your thigh. What's going on?" said As he spoke, he stretched out his gauze-wrapped hand dishonestly.

Zhong Jurui moved the stool closer, let others take advantage of it, and said: "Oh, that's why you are lying here. You fell in love with me and insisted on being with me. If I refuse to agree, you can use it to kill yourself." You came to threaten me, accidentally tripped your left foot over your right foot, and stabbed yourself."

Pei Xu was silent for a while, and said, "I can't be such a bold and crazy handsome man, can I?"

"Why don't you be so bold?" Zhong Jurui stuffed a slice of apple into Pei Xu's mouth, "You dare to soak it in me."

"Oh? Then did I make it?" Pei Xu laughed narrowly.

Zhong Jurui said: "I told you before you lost your memory. If you forget, I won't repeat it."

Pei Xu gave up acting as an amnesiac, and coquettishly said, "Zhong Jurui, you are so boring!"

Zhong Jurui kissed his forehead with a smile, and replied with full tenderness: "It's time. You have won a big victory. This small city has already planted banners surnamed Pei all over the mountains and fields, and written a letter of surrender. I will never let anyone else in again. You scared me out of my wits, so you should be honest and be good, what should I do if something happens to you?"

Pei Xu didn't expect to wait for such a sentence, and even forgot to chew the apple slices in his mouth.Zhong Jurui lifted his chin with a smile and helped him open and close his mouth manually.

The more Pei Xu thought about it, the happier he became, and he said, "When did you write your letter of surrender? Why didn't you tell me? I thought, in your heart, you felt that both of us would have to change and adapt. It turns out that you have felt that it is almost okay recently. Already."

"Not recently, but several years ago."

——Since several years ago, this lonely small city has always surrendered unconditionally to you.

Pei Xu turned his head, the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red.

When Pei Han and his wife came, Pei Xu closed his eyes instantly.

"I brought you breakfast." Sister Xue said to Zhong Jurui, "Is he still awake?"

Zhong Jurui couldn't figure out Pei Xu's routine, so he took the thermos and nodded vaguely.

Pei Xu finally opened his eyes slowly, and said weakly: "It hurts so much..."

Sister Xue leaned over distressedly and asked where the pain was.

Pei Xu glanced at her and said, "Is this a hospital? Who are you? Who am I? My head hurts so much, I don't remember anything."

Sister Xue quickly looked at Zhong Jurui, Zhong Jurui smiled slightly, and spread his hands helplessly.Pei Han's eyelids twitched, and he felt that the bear boy deserved a beating today.

Sister Xue patted Pei Xu's hand and said, "Look again, who am I? If you can't remember, I'll throw you down from this floor."

Pei Xu said weakly: "I really can't remember, how could there be such a violent and old woman like you in my social circle—you seem to be a little bald?"

Sister Xue said, "Come here, is there any euthanasia? I'll give this little boy a shot."

Pei Xu laughed heartily, and hastily surrendered.

His inconspicuous play made Pei Han and the others relax a lot, Zhong Jurui thought, this little brat is also a little thoughtful occasionally.
