After dinner, Zhang Yuanqing diligently helped his grandmother clean up the dishes, carried the kitchen waste downstairs, and threw it into the garbage pool in the community.
Remembering that I hadn’t gone to see my aunt yet, I went to the fruit shop opposite the community and bought a few kilograms of seasonal fruits. I then sent a text message to my uncle and asked him to prepare a box of foreign skin care kits. He was going to see his aunt in five minutes.
When he returned to his bedroom carrying the fruit, there was an unopened box of skin care product set on his desk.
A complete set of skin care, moisturizing, anti-wrinkle, whitening and freckle removal.
Zhang Yuanqing took the skin care products and knocked on the door of his aunt's house.
"Motoko is back?" My aunt, who was wearing a night mask, opened the door and saw her eldest nephew standing tall and graceful at the door, and she suddenly smiled.
"Come back and see grandpa and grandma," Zhang Yuanqing handed over the skin care products and fruits: "Of course there is also my young and beautiful aunt."
When my aunt saw the skin care products, her smile became brighter:
"How do you know I use this brand of skin care products? I happen to be running out of them. Recently, there is a virus all over the world, and the purchasing business has stopped. I am worried. Motoko, you are interested."
Uncle is interested! Zhang Yuanqing opened his arms and asked, "Is uncle at home?"
The aunt held skin care products in one hand and held her nephew's arm in the other, saying angrily:
"Where else can he go if he is not at home? The virus is so serious outside. He is so scared that he is at home every day. He only goes to the bathroom more and more often. He went to the bathroom again just now."
Uncle went to the bathroom to buy skin care products for you! Hearing this, Zhang Yuanqing turned his attention to the bathroom.
"Crack!"
The bathroom door happened to open, and my uncle, who was wearing a burgundy suit and narrow-cut tights, walked out. The uncle and nephew looked at each other, invisible electric sparks crackling, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.
The aunt wisely let go of her nephew's arm and stepped aside.
The uncle took a deep breath, twisted his waist and lifted his hips, with his middle finger pointing down: "You useless Motoko, you are carrying something to see your uncle, but you still spent your uncle's money, yo yo!"
Zhang Yuanqing also raised his two middle fingers, pointed downwards, and took two steps back, imitating the exaggerated posture of fighting dance: "Rich brother-in-law, I have already laid the trap. You can spend some more money to lure out those dogs."
When my uncle heard this, he shook his head repeatedly: "Look at how greedy you are. You want to rely on your brother-in-law for everything. You always look like you have no future."
Zhang Yuanqing danced tap dance around his uncle and sang loudly: "Promising brother-in-law, do you still remember the blond girl from ten years ago?"
Before he finished speaking, his uncle interrupted his follow-up with two loud "yoyo" sounds: "Useless Yuanzi, it's rare for him to look reliable, so it's a deal!"
Zhang Yuanqing waved his hands happily: "Aunt, I'm leaving!"
Back at the opposite door, he carried the clean clothes prepared by his grandmother into the bathroom. After washing up, Zhang Yuanqing used the power of the sun to steam dry his hair, put on his furry pajamas, and sat at the desk to wait quietly.
My grandparents, who went to bed early, had already gone into their room to rest, and the house was quiet.
Less than half an hour later, Zhang Yuanqing's door quietly opened, and Jiang Yuyi, wearing a small vest and hot pants, sneaked in.
"What kind of monster are you doing in the middle of winter? Aren't you afraid of the cold?" Zhang Yuanqing looked sideways.
Jiang Yuyi wrinkled her nose and said, "Auntie, wouldn't it be more attractive to you if you wear something like this?"
Why are you deducting points for your speech? You, a woman, don’t even want to act? Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart, but when he saw Jiang Yuyi walking straight towards him, he still cooperated by sliding his wheelchair and giving up his thigh.
Jiang Yubai turned sideways, placed her round buttocks on his thigh, and hooked his neck with both hands.
Zhang Yuanqing raised his head and looked into those beautiful black eyes that were as bright as stars.
After looking at each other for more than ten seconds, my aunt snorted:
"Why didn't you bring Guan Ya home? Your grandma misses this grandson-in-law very much."
There was no trace of jealousy in his tone.
"She didn't send the jade talisman. The airport in Xinyue County was also damaged. It will take a few days before she can return to China." Zhang Yuanqing said with a smile: "When she returns to Songhai, I will bring her to my house for dinner. You will be my aunt.
, but you have to entertain me well."
Before he could finish speaking, he received a sharp slap on the forehead.
Jiang Yuyi's eyes were cold and he sneered: "I will kill her sooner or later."
Zhang Yuanqing originally wanted to skip this topic, but after thinking about it, he still asked stubbornly:
"You know everything, why didn't you tell me earlier? It's neither my fault nor Guan Ya's fault."
Jiang Yuyi knew everything, but never confessed to him. Instead, he appeared next to him as the master of the palace to stop killing, and now he blames Guan Ya for stealing his love.
Jiang Yuyi's eyes were suddenly covered with mist as she stared at him:
"In order to sew up your torn soul, I have been crazy for many years. In order to let Jiang Yuyi live a normal life, in order not to hurt his parents and you, I made a clone. I have to hypnotize myself in the mirror every night before going to bed.
Being a normal person can suppress chaotic thoughts and emotions.
"Do you know how strongly the blood stimulated me when I was having a caesarean section in the hospital? The bloody wounds, the stillborn children, the dead patients, all of these would remind me of the extermination of the Chu family, further irritating me.
of madness.
"But I have to endure it. I want to continue to live in this home and next to you. In the dead of night, I will also think that someone can come out to save me. I am in pain and pain."
Warm tears fell on his face drop by drop.
Zhang Yuanqing felt like his heart had been stabbed, and the sting was sharp.
Jiang Yuyi smiled sadly: "What if I tell you? I don't even know how long I can hold on. Confessing this to you will only increase my worries. I have already thought about it. Once I reach the limit, I will leave this home.
Let the scum of the family take me into the secret copy of the Five Elements and call myself an abyss."
Zhang Yuanqing stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Jiang Yuyi's cheek, and held her face in his hands. He had thousands of words in his heart that merged into one sentence: "I'm sorry."
Jiang Yuyi pursed her lips and closed her eyelashes tremblingly. Regardless of the pain and helplessness in the past, her heart was happy at this moment.
The lips of the two people were getting closer and closer. At this moment, the sound of the door handle being turned came from the living room, followed by the sound of rapid footsteps approaching the bedroom door.
Jiang Yubai bounced up instantly, and Zhang Yuanqing immediately straightened up and sat upright.
The bedroom door was pushed open with force, and it was my cousin Chen Yuanjun who looked haggard.
Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath to calm down, and deliberately joked in a joking tone: "Cousin, I haven't seen you for two months, and you can switch identities with your uncle."
He was teasing his cousin about getting older.
Chen Yuanjun, who originally wanted to say something, stopped talking when he saw Jiang Yuyi: "Auntie, why are you in Yuanzi's room?"
He immediately glanced at her beautiful figure in a vest and hot pants, frowned and said, "Aren't you cold?"
It’s almost the end of the year, and the nights in Songhai are very wet and cold.
"Oh, come here to play the Switch fitness game with Motoko." Jiang Yu used "Appease" without changing her expression, "You guys can talk, I'm going back to the room to sleep."
Chen Yuanjun instinctively thought that this was the case, and without thinking much, he watched his aunt leave the room. When he heard her enter the boudoir and close the door, he quickly closed the door and walked to the bed with a serious face.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yuanqing's face also became serious.
Chen Yuanjun said in a deep voice:
"Motoko, I've been proofreading files at the Public Security Bureau recently."
He briefly talked about his work, wording and thinking.
"During the process of proofreading the files, our technicians recovered a deleted electronic file. It was a missing person file from 2019, and the missing person was Lei Yibing!"
Zhang Yuanqing was stunned. Brother Bing disappeared three years ago?
How the hell didn’t I know?
Although brother Bing went to college and the two brothers gradually lost contact due to the separation between the two places, it did not mean that they severed contact. He and brother Bing would occasionally chat online and share pictures and license plates.
Chen Yuanjun continued:
"The electronic files were forcibly deleted by someone using their authority. The case has not been closed, and the files have not been restored to their original appearance. Yuanzi, I suspect that this matter is related to the recent disappearance of Lei Yibing.
"If we can find out who deleted the electronic files three years ago, maybe we can find out the truth and help us find Lei Yibing."
Chen Yuanjun's consciousness is still stuck on the case of Lei Yibing's disappearance in April.
Zhang Yuanqing thought a lot. He had investigated Brother Bing and found out that Brother Bing was somber and low-key in college. Even if he had a conflict with his classmates, he would take the initiative to give in and take revenge afterwards.
This is not in line with Brother Bing's character of "taking life and death lightly and doing whatever he wants".
At that time, Zhang Yuanqing suspected that Brother Bing had encountered an accident during the summer vacation after graduating from high school. It was during that summer vacation that he became a prisoner and was controlled by Judge Sly Eyes.
Now that this missing persons file appeared, it confirmed his suspicion.
"Brother Bing was indeed born during the summer after graduating from high school, and then was controlled by Judge Sly Eyes. So after going to college, his temperament changed drastically and he became vicious." Zhang Yuanqing thought to himself.
Seeing that he was silent, Chen Yuanjun comforted him: "When the aftermath work is completed, I will visit Lei Yibing's house again and ask what happened in the disappearance case."
Although the electronic file cannot be restored, since the crime was reported to the Kangyang District Public Security Bureau, the person who reported the crime must be Lei Yibing's family.
Chen Yuanjun nodded, stood up and said, "It's okay. You should rest early."
When he reached the door of the room, he suddenly paused and looked back: "Motoko, what do you think of this disaster?"
Zhang Yuanqing replied: "Experts have said that it is a virus. Once a vaccine is developed, there is no need to be afraid."
"Is it a virus?" Chen Yuanjun snorted, "Yes, you don't have to worry about it when the vaccine comes out. Yuanzi, the Public Security Bureau pulled a piece of data yesterday. The places where terrorists attack are concentrated in banks, Public Security Bureaus, shopping malls, and wealthy areas.
The old city, suburbs, and rural areas have basically not been attacked. I plan to buy a house in the suburbs of Songhai and let my grandparents and parents move there. What do you think?"
Alas, sometimes poverty is the best protective color. Zhang Yuanqing said: "Guan Ya called me tonight and said that she wanted to bring my family to the capital. Cousin, I think it is better to go to the capital than to the countryside. You can
Don't worry."
You are the weakest in the whole family, so why worry about it?
After seeing his cousin off, Zhang Yuanqing glanced at his aunt's room, hesitating and hesitating, tangled and tangled, and finally returned to the room silently.
Late night, zoo.
A cat and a dog squatted in front of a laptop. The green plants beside the table grew long green whiskers. They clicked on the keyboard and entered information:
"Elder Miao, I want to ask you something."
Ms. JOJO tilted her head and stared at the dog beside her with bright light green pupils, "Who is Elder Miao?"
"The first batch, my immediate boss, the Level 9 Spring God, is the best person to ask about the past." Elder Dog replied.
They checked the official database and found no information about the boat association. Elder Gou thought for a long time and planned to attack directly and ask the first group directly.
Upon hearing the ninth-level Spring God, Ms. JOJO's eyes lit up: "Is he familiar with Yuanshi Tianzun?"
The elder dog heard the song and understood the cat's intention, and said with a smile:
"Don't even think about changing the master. He hates Yuanshi Tianzun very much. He hates Wujiwu. He won't like you either."
"Why?" Ms. JOJO asked. Cats have always been very curious.
"It's a long story. I won't go into the private affairs of the superior. If you want to know, you can ask Yuanshi Tianzun." Elder Dog was as steady as ever.
"Anyway, Yuanshi Tianzun is not afraid of offending this elder Miao again?" Ms. JOJO understood.
At this time, Elder Miao replied:
"What's the matter?"
The elder dog perked up and took a look at the green plants beside the table. The green plants immediately danced with their young whiskers and crackled as he typed:
"I want to ask you about the boat club."
Elder Miao was silent for more than ten seconds and replied: "What are you asking about Tongzhouhui?"
Elder Dog pondered for a moment, then manipulated his tender whiskers to respond:
"Inquiring about an old incident."
He did not explain in detail, wanting to see how sensitive Elder Miao was to this matter.
If Elder Miao continues to ask questions, it means that the other party knows the Tongzhou Association very well, and at the same time, it is taboo for anyone to inquire about this organization.
The superior is not a very curious cat. If you ask repeatedly, there must be something fishy.
"The Together Boat Association was an organization established during World War II. It is said to be a local organization established by the Freedom Covenant with the slogan 'When the family and the country are in trouble, we will help each other in the same boat'. In the name of patriotism, it has attracted a group of local people and elites from the political and business circles. On the surface, it is to resist the war.
The real purpose is to take advantage of China's weakness to secretly control the country and become the master behind the curtain." Elder Miao replied.
A cat and a dog looked at each other, and they both saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
"Why did the Tongzhou Association disappear later?" Elder Dog asked.
"I don't know." Elder Miao's answer was concise and to the point.
"Do you know the members of the boat club? I mean the members who are still alive." After Elder Gou typed this line, he was afraid that Elder Miao would reply: You didn't expect that I am a member of the boat club!
Elder Miao: "Leader Jiang, the Lord and President of the Atrium."
The president here refers to the president of Baihua Club, the current Qing Emperor.
The elder dog looked at the computer screen, and the dog's paws began to tremble.
The three leaders are all in the same boat!
"What the hell? Out of the five leaders, three are from the same boat?"
In the early morning, beside the bed in the bedroom, Zhang Yuanqing, who had just woken up, looked at the message sent by Elder Gou, his eyes a little dull.
According to the Free Covenant's method of cultivating spies, these three alliance leaders must all be young men. Well, first of all, exclude Gang Leader Jiang. He cannot do such delicate work as a spy. I remember my uncle said that the reason why the former marshal of the White Tiger Soldiers and
The Xiaoyao organization teamed up to steal the Compass of Light because they couldn't trust the other alliance leaders. Why did I do this? Hey, this is terrifying.
Zhang Yuanqing secretly gasped, and then thought about it again, and felt that his worries were unfounded. If there were details about the Free Covenant among the five alliance leaders, then the incident of the Wind and Thunder Gods would not be properly resolved at all.
And if there is an out-of-control level 12 demigod causing chaos all over the world, the lawful demigods will definitely be in dire straits. At this time, Lingtuo will use the authority of the Lord of Taiyin to swallow up the moral value.
The lawful camp exploded directly on the spot.
Zhang Yuanqing put away his cell phone and planned to discuss it with his boss or uncle when he had time. He put on his shoes, washed briefly, left the house, entered the unmonitored corridor, and disappeared into starlight.
In an old community full of age, Zhang Yuanqing knocked on the door of Lei Yibing's house.
The person who opened the door was Lei Yibing's mother. Compared to April, her expression was no longer haggard and the dark circles under her eyes were gone, but she was getting older and her eyes lacked sparkle.
"Motoko?"
Seeing Zhang Yuanqing, Aunt Zhou's eyes burst out with a little light.
"Aunt Zhou, let me see you." Zhang Yuanqing raised the fruit in his hand and entered the room with a smile.
After sitting down in the living room, Aunt Zhou took the fruit and went to the kitchen to clean it.
Zhang Yuanqing said hurriedly: "No, Aunt Zhou, I will leave in a moment. I came here today to ask you something about Brother Bing."
Aunt Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up, but her expression became tense. She was in a state of excitement and nervousness, and she said cautiously: "Look, have you found A Bing?"
"No." Zhang Yuanqing shook his head.
Aunt Zhou let out a heavy breath, her expression was complicated, and she couldn't tell whether she was relaxed or solemn.
Sensing her emotions, Zhang Yuanqing sighed silently. After missing for eight months, the family members themselves may not be able to tell what their mentality is. They want to find him but don't want to find him.
Zhang Yuanqing asked: "Aunt Zhou, Cousin Yuanjun said that the Kangyang District Public Security Bureau received a report of Brother Bing's disappearance three years ago. Do you remember the specific month and day, and how did Brother Bing come back later?
Maybe this time, he himself will come back."
Hearing this, Aunt Zhou looked confused: "Yuanzi, what are you talking about? A Bing has never disappeared before."
At this moment, Zhang Yuanqing's pupils shrank into needles.
