The night is deep and quiet.

The night wind was gentle, and it was caressing through a window.

This is a dim living room, a piece of sand, a person, and a cigarette.

The red light flashes like the stars in the night sky, and the light is indefinitely destroyed.

"Another day has passed, Xiaoxi, where are you!"

A sigh, with a little loneliness, disappeared into the wind.

The place illuminated by the red light was a pale face, with a narrow and hideous scar on it.

Then, the wind stopped and the smoke disappeared.

The entire living room was silent.

Wu Zhiyuan slowly closed his eyes...

"Ah!" At this moment, a soft cry came from the room.

"Sister Mengran!" Wu Zhiyuan opened his eyes, rose up, and headed straight for the room.

He pushed open the door, but immediately stood there in a daze.

Liu Mengran was wearing a light shirt, like an elf at midnight. At this moment, she was churning things, full of anxiety.

"It's fine!" Wu Zhiyuan let out a long sigh, came to Liu Mengran and asked, "Sister, what are you looking for?"

"I... one of my bracelets is gone!" Liu Mengran stood up, "I searched through them all, but I didn't find them."

"So!" Wu Zhiyuan smiled slightly, "It's getting late now. You should take a break early and take a look tomorrow. Sometimes, when you look for this thing? It's not there, and when you don't look for it? It's popping up again!"

"But..." Liu Mengran wanted to speak, "I really searched all of them... Maybe it's in the room we used to live in!"

"Sister, is that bracelet very important?" Wu Zhiyuan said seriously, "Or why I will take you to buy one tomorrow!"

"It's not like this!" Liu Mengran's eyes dodged and lowered her head, "That was...that was given to me by a friend!"

"Friend?" Wu Zhiyuan's eyes flashed, and then he grinned, "Since it was given by a friend, it's very important. I'll go back and take a look. Maybe it's still in that room! Sister, don't worry, rest with peace of mind, I'll come here after a while!"

"Don't!"

Liu Mengran grabbed Wu Zhiyuan's arm, "If you go back, I don't know if there is any danger. Those people may still be waiting for you to fall into the trap!"

"No!" Wu Zhiyuan said, "They have gone to me once, but they will not go there again. They thought I had moved away, and the people from the Public Security Bureau would never leave anyone to stay there. There have been frequent crimes recently, and their police force is not enough!"

"Sister! Don't worry! I'll come when I go!" Wu Zhiyuan patted the back of Liu Mengran's hand and turned around.

"Xiaoyuan!" Just as Wu Zhiyuan walked to the door, Liu Mengran shouted.

"What's wrong?" Wu Zhiyuan turned around, not sure.

"That bracelet..." Liu Mengran slowly raised her head and whispered, "That bracelet... was given to me by Baishitong!"

"What?" Wu Zhiyuan's face suddenly collapsed, and he gritted his teeth, "This bastard!"

"Xiaoyuan, don't get me wrong!" Liu Mengran said hurriedly, "I...he and I are nothing, just ordinary friends, just..."

"Sister!" Wu Zhiyuan walked forward and said softly, "I didn't blame you. The past has passed. Don't be upset! Don't think about those unhappy ones, I..."

"No, Xiaoyuan!"

Liu Mengran interrupted Wu Zhiyuan's words, plucked up the courage, faced Wu Zhiyuan's gaze, and said, "I'm really nothing with Baishitong. He used to... He came to my store before, but he never touched me... We were together, just chatting, and every time he finished speaking, he left!"

"So..." Wu Zhiyuan murmured to himself.

He lit a cigarette and sat on the bed with a complicated expression.

He was very disgusted with Pepsi at first.

At that time, just as Wu Zhiyuan was desperate to find Chen Xi's clue, Liu Mengran mentioned this person. Wu Zhiyuan still remembered Liu Mengran's expression at that time, which was extremely unnatural.

His disgust was naturally not because of Baishitong's own identity, but Liu Mengran.

At the beginning, if he hadn't seen that because everyone knows it's useful, he would have wanted to kill this person.

After a period of contact and getting along, he realized that everyone is not useless. Although this person is a gangster, he is extremely smart and bold, and very loyal.

He thought that Baishitong must have done something too extraordinary to Liu Mengran, but he didn't expect that it would be like this.

"He is different from others!" Liu Mengran came to Wu Zhiyuan, "He respected me very much. At that time, you also knew that except for my younger brother, I was helpless. Every time he came, he would talk about his own affairs. Although those things were not glorious, he told me and had no hesitation to me at all. Finally... In the end, a few girls died on the Wujiang River one after another. He came and gave me a bracelet. He said we might not see each other again. He told me to take good care of him, and advised me not to do it..."

"Sister! I understand!" Wu Zhiyuan said softly, heartache as if stirring a knife.

He also knew how desperate Liu Mengran was in the past. She naturally cherished such a person very much.

Wu Zhiyuan understood, and understood why Liu Mengran was so confused when she talked about everything.

Originally, it was not that Baishitong had bullied her, but that she was regarded as a confidant.

Mengran is very quiet on weekdays and doesn't talk much, but she values ​​friendship and is worried about his safety.

"Sister, why didn't you say it earlier? I met him not long ago, and he is helping me with things now!" Wu Zhiyuan said.

"You are busy looking for Xiaoxi, I don't want to distract you!" Liu Mengran smiled slightly, "I just need to be able to stay by your side. Everything else, let it go!"

"I..." Wu Zhiyuan was speechless and silent for a while. He stood up, "Sister, I'll go back and help you get the bracelet back. I think even if I'm not there, I must be at the landlord's house or the new tenant, and I'm going to come back!"

"Be careful!" Liu Mengran nodded gently until Wu Zhiyuan walked out of the room. She whispered, "I'll wait for you to come back!"

The night was quiet, but Wu Zhiyuan walked out of the room, but his heart was filled with twists and turns.

He did not tell Liu Mengran that this morning, Baishitong betrayed him.

He was afraid that she would be in a low mood!

Because, Pepsi was the only person she had to heart with when she was at the darkest and darkest time, and was her only friend!

From Liu Mengran's words, Wu Zhiyuan couldn't hear it. Baishitong liked Liu Mengran. Maybe Liu Mengran didn't notice this, but just regarded him as an ordinary friend and close friend, but they were all men. Wu Zhiyuan knew Baishitong's thoughts.

But this person is not a good thing!

Mengran, you must not be with him!

This was Wu Zhiyuan’s first reaction!

She should have her own life and a new life of her own.

Wu Zhiyuan knew that Liu Mengran had himself in her heart!

But, following him, he is destined to be displaced and has no future.

But she was too sensitive. Every time, he tried to make it, her first sentence always said, don't drive her away.

Because I care too much, this is why.

So, Wu Zhiyuan had to find an opportunity to leave her.

Only by leaving her can she truly live her own life.

But it is definitely not that he pushed her to someone irresponsibly, such as Baishitong. Besides, in Wu Zhiyuan's opinion, he is not worthy of her!

"It's so fucking nonsense!" Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but laugh at himself. Baishitong was a bastard and even gave Meng Ran a bracelet, but what about himself?

There is nothing but a gun.

Wu Zhiyuan came to a three-way intersection, looked around, and confirmed that there were no policemen around, got on a tricycle and headed south.

...

Wu Zhiyuan once again came to Xishui Street, Jixiang Community, and downstairs of Building 3, Unit 3.

This is a lonely building, dozens of meters away from Building 2, and is incompatible with the surrounding buildings.

Wu Zhiyuan stood with his hands behind his back, standing downstairs, with nostalgia on his eyes. This was once where he and Mengran lived. Although it was short-lived, it was very warm.

He saw that there was light on the third floor, and there was the house where they once lived.

"Will there be a new tenant so soon?" Wu Zhiyuan stepped forward, walked into the stairwell, and went straight to the door of 3o1.

Wu Zhiyuan took out his pistol and hid it behind him, and he knocked on the door.

He had to be careful, it was not normal.

Because, before he lived here, this house was not rented out for a long time.

Perhaps, the so-called tenant here is Wu Yudie's person, or perhaps, he is from the Public Security Bureau! Just wait for him to come back here!

"Who!" A lazy voice came from the room, and his steps were getting closer and closer.

"Hmm?" Wu Zhiyuan did not wrinkle. This voice was very familiar.

But at this moment, the door opened and a man in a well-suited suit appeared in front of him.

He hid one hand behind him, pulled the door open with the other, and a narcissistic smile appeared on his face.

"Uncle Lin Feng?"

"Zhiyuan?"

The two of them were stunned at the same time, then smiled at the same time, tacitly put away their pistols.

"Haha! Zhiyuan, I didn't expect it was you, come in and sit down! We are..." Lin Feng laughed loudly, preparing to invite Wu Zhiyuan in, but the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
To be continued...
