One of the important reasons why human beings can become the spirit of all things is that they have the ability to accept new things very quickly.
It's incredibly fast.
After Xu Zhiyong finished speaking, he quickly became serious and said suspiciously: "You can't be... sent by the higher-ups to conduct overt and covert inspections, right? I hate it, how can you test my working ability with questions like yours?"
Yi Lin: "..."
Thus, Yi Lin could confirm that the world would never be the same again.
Or maybe, in fact, the world has been different from what he remembered since unknown time, but he only discovered the clues at this time.
But why?
There are countless question marks in his mind.
It took a while.
Yi Lin took a deep breath and smiled: "You are overthinking, I am just teasing you."
Xu Zhiyong immediately breathed a sigh of relief and patted Yi Lin on the shoulder: "I'm just telling you, why are you joking about something like this, hahahaha."
The experienced Lao Xu did not notice this time that Yi Lin's smile suddenly faded, but was replaced by a strange calmness.
I remember that in many movie scenes or novels, when the protagonist learned the bad news about his parents' sacrifice to heaven, he always showed a look of grief and grief.
But Yi Lin suddenly felt that when this situation happened to him, he only found it funny.
When the concept of "parents" completely faded from his memory and he could not even recall any information about "parents", this sad emotion was just a joke.
Do not know why.
Not sure why.
I don't know how serious it is.
Therefore, Yi Lin could only bear everything.
Accept all questions.
Bear all the strangeness.
Bear all sudden changes.
There is no other way and no reason to refuse.
At this time, a young police officer saw that Xu Zhiyong was busy and did not come to disturb him. He just said hello to the two chatting from a distance.
"Captain Xu, I'm leaving first. Captain Xu, you should go home and rest early."
Unknowingly, Yi Lin went shopping until after get off work that day.
"Captain Xu?"
Yi Lin looked at Xu Zhiyong with a half-smile.
"Hey, hey, everyone is giving me face, giving me face." Xu Zhiyong's expression was stern, as if he had something to hide.
Yi Lin thought about it carefully.
"Gu...what is Gu here? Where is she? Died in the line of duty?"
"Gu Sinan." Xu Zhiyong said a name that had almost faded out of Yi Lin's memory. Hearing the second half of Yi Lin's sentence, he immediately showed a dumbfounded expression: "What are you thinking! How can it be so easy to die in the line of duty! It's just that kid Gu Sinan.
, something happened."
"oh?"
Yi Lin had no interest at first, but the chatter box had opened up and the topic had reached this point. Yi Lin followed Xu Zhiyong's words and spoke a syllable.
Xu Zhiyong hesitated for a moment, as if he had something to hide. But when he remembered Yi Lin's mysterious background, he finally didn't hide it and told the story in a storytelling tone.
"This matter is a long story..."
"Please keep your story short."
"Uh... I shouldn't have told you originally, but, well, some time ago, when Gu Sinan was still the captain, something started to get... wrong."
Xu Zhiyong seemed to have considered it for a long time before using the adjective "something was wrong."
"Something's wrong?"
"It's just that... the way we do things is getting weirder and weirder. You know, in our industry, we generally need evidence to handle cases. If there is insufficient evidence, there is no way to convict. But when Gu Sinan was on the job, he was also very powerful, so powerful.
Unlike people, in many cases, there is no need to find evidence at all, and the prisoner can basically be locked up."
Um?
Yi Lin recalled the feeling of being targeted by Gu Sinan.
Xu Zhiyong continued: "Although she is very awesome, it is very difficult for us to deal with her doing this!"
"Many times we know that there is something wrong with the prisoner, but after locking the prisoner, we are unable to find the evidence. Gu Sinanna may have lacked some experience and had a bad temper...until that incident happened..."
When Xu Zhiyong's tone became hesitant again, Yi Lin smiled and guessed: "She beat the suspect?"
"Hiss—" Xu Zhiyong suddenly took a breath of cold air, subconsciously took a step back, and stared at Yi Lin with a monster-like look: "You, you, how do you know?"
"Uh... is it difficult to guess? I feel like she is the kind of person who will punch hard and punch out the evidence if she can't find it."
Yi Lin told the truth and acted from the heart.
Ah this?
Xu Zhiyong was stunned.
But after thinking about it, he found it difficult to refute.
Because in fact... Gu Sinan also got beaten up, and it was a million-ton punch.
"Some time ago, a pedophile appeared in Qingcheng area, you know. Oh, you don't understand, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that." Xu Zhiyong suddenly realized that the meaning of his words seemed to be wrong, and he quickly changed his words.
"In short, the suspect has been identified and caught. Gu Sinan is very sure that it is him, but because of that scumbag, he struck too cleanly and did not leave any tail."
"Moreover, he also has... a considerable background. If we can't find evidence, we will have to release him in the end."
"Then that night in the prison, Gu Sinan stepped on his balls and crushed them on both sides. She beat the prisoner so hard that the shit came out."
"It's been a month and I'm still lying in the hospital. Although I woke up, my spirit seemed to have been severely damaged. I kept shouting, 'I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore'. It seemed like I was scared out of my mind."
really.
Talent.
Awesome.
Yi Lin secretly gave a thumbs up.
"Then what?"
Xu Zhiyong shrugged: "What else can be done? This matter has indeed gone too far. Gu Sinan seems to have some family background...it has something to do with the superiors. The superiors are also thinking of transferring her first, after all, this matter is really difficult to handle.
, but Gu Sinan resigned directly and left the company without saying a word."
Xu Zhiyong took a sip of wolfberry tea to moisten his throat and replenish his kidneys, and continued: "Although later, amidst that scumbag's nonsense, we found various tools for his crimes in the basement of an abandoned garage outside the city.
.”
"In the end, it was proved that Gu Sinan's intuition was correct, but it is said that the superiors were really afraid of Gu Sinan's inexplicable way of handling cases, and did not dare to bring Gu Sinan back again. In addition, she herself did not have the will, so she gave up.
That’s it.”
Yi Lin finally understood what happened.
But he only listened to it to save face, and Yi Lin actually lacked interest.
Finally, Yi Lin looked calm and concluded: "She did the right thing and deserves to be killed."
Xu Zhiyong looked at Yi Lin's calm expression with a look of shock.
But he found it difficult to refute.
Finished talking.
Yi Lin prepares to leave.
Before leaving, Yi Lin casually said: "Lao Xu, congratulations, congratulations."
Xu Zhiyong instantly understood what Yi Lin was referring to. He originally wanted to say something modest, but when his words came to his lips, they turned into: "Hi, you're welcome, you're welcome."
Yi Lin chuckled and walked out of the police station.
Xu Zhiyong was also very practical and took Yi Lin all the way to the gate.
Before leaving, Xu Zhiyong suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, Gu Sinan said something a little weird before leaving, which made Lao Xu me a little concerned."
"Huh? What did you say?"
Xu Zhiyong scratched his head: "She just said: 'You don't understand, you don't understand at all.' After finishing her words, she ran away."
Yi Lin took a deep look at Xu Zhiyong, was silent for a moment, and reminded: "It will be fine in the future... have less contact with her."
Xu Zhiyong: "?"
After Yi Lin finished speaking, this trip seemed to have left Xu Zhiyong with more question marks, and she left gracefully.
But no one can understand Yi Lin's ups and downs in her mentality.
After leaving Qingcheng Police Station, she returned to this city that should have felt very familiar, but everything around her felt strange to Yilin.
Obviously this is a small city where I have lived for three years.
Obviously this is a world that has been relived for three years.
Obviously, this is a time that has been experienced before.
Everything seems similar.
But everything is very different.
Yi Lin had countless question marks deep in her heart at this moment.
But I don’t know which question mark to start with.
Because there are no answers to all the question marks.
Yi Lin could only use his usual approach. There was insufficient information, so he put it down for the time being.
In the evening.
Yi Lin returned home.
After all, it’s not too miserable to have a place to stay in this city.
Before entering, Yi Lin checked carefully and found that there were no signs of intrusion by outsiders, so she took a shower and heated up a quick meal.
——"b taste".
This brand of instant meals is the only one that tastes delicious.
While eating, another ridiculous idea flashed through Yi Lin's mind.
Could it be that even the fact that he trained for three years and finally followed the historical trajectory and successfully killed Henry Zhang in a specific place at a specific time and in a specific weather was an illusion?
So in the end, what else is real in his memory, and what is an illusion?
After the meal, Yi Lin lay on the bed. Yi Lin closed her eyes and meditated, and seemed to be fast asleep.
suddenly.
Yi Lin suddenly jumped up from the bed with a solemn expression. After a while, he slowly lay back down.
"There is another place..."
In the dark night, only Yi Lin's murmuring words remained.
The next day.
it's clear.
It's early autumn now.
When Yi Lin moved before, she bought a batch of autumn clothes. After putting on the equipment suitable for the season, Yi Lin left Qingcheng alone.
I don’t know when I will come back next time.
Before stepping onto the entrance of the underground network, Yi Lin looked back at this strange yet familiar city.
"Goodbye, Qingcheng."
A simple sentence is a farewell.
Originally, Yi Lin was not such a sad character, but in the past two days, Yi Lin had suppressed many emotions in her heart, making it difficult to express them to anyone.
Taking the Diwang, Yilin arrived directly at Yiwu County.
The moment she stepped out of the underground network, Yi Lin seemed to have returned to the previous century.
The bluestone road continues forward, with withered yellow leaves floating down from time to time on both sides, exuding the desolation of early autumn.
With a calm expression, Yi Lin arrived in front of the Yiwu County Welfare Home.
Inside, all kinds of old men were wearing brand new autumn clothes and playing in the yard.
"Eh? Xiao Lin, why are you back? Hahaha, why do you have time to come back to visit us old men and women?"
When the old dean saw Yi Lin step into the orphanage, he was surprised and overflowing with joy.
A group of old men gathered around.
Yi Lin also smiled and told them about her recent life.
Of course, most of them are fabrications. These old men never went to college anyway, so they believed them and expressed their envy.
When mentioning Ling Yiyi, Yi Lin simply said.
"Yiyi is fine. She is currently undergoing treatment for her eyes at the best hospital in the capital. I believe she will be able to see things soon."
The various "good news" Yi Lin brought seemed to make the old men and women look a lot younger, and the wrinkles on their faces have faded a bit.
After the pleasantries, Yi Lin immediately got to the point and brought up the business.
"Old dean, I would like to ask, do you still remember my life experience?"
When the old dean heard this, he was suddenly startled, and immediately looked at Yi Lin with a look that was becoming more and more familiar to him.
This look has a meaning: something is wrong with you.
In the past two days, everyone had almost the same look in their eyes when they heard Yi Lin's question.
Everyone thought something was wrong with Yi Lin.
The old dean smiled and said: "Did you forget? I told you when you were playing here when you were a child! And you still complained over and over again about why I gave you such a weird name, hahaha."
As a child?
play?
Yi Lin once again felt chills running down her spine.
ten minutes later.
Under the leadership of the dean, Yi Lin returned to his "childhood" room, which happened to be next door to Ling Yiyi.
Everything in the room seems to have experienced the passage of time and is full of old smell, but it is still spotless, clean and tidy.
In front of the door, in crooked handwriting, there is a sign belonging to "Yilin".
Under the word "Yilin", two numbers "10" are written.
Wait, next door?
In Yi Lin's memory, there was no such "room belonging to Yi Lin" next door to Ling Yiyi.
And he clearly remembered that there was also a sign hanging at the door of Ling Yiyi's room, and the number under her name was "01".
In the past, he always thought that this number referred to the room number.
The old dean Youyou said: "I remember when you and Yiyi were sent to the orphanage, except for the two numbers on your body, there were no other clues about your identity. The number on your body was No. 10, so you took the name 'Yilin'
name."
"As for Ling Yiyi, I used a redundant word for her name to make it sound better. Hey, I have a good taste in naming, right? You kid used to say that I have a bad taste in naming."
I see.
Yi Lin suddenly realized.
But more questions emerged.
Yi Lin..."10".
Ling Yiyi..."01".
It turns out that this is the real bond between him and Ling Yiyi.
In my memory, Ling Yiyi always said their names with a smile, they were very destined.
In this familiar yet unfamiliar world, he who has the number "10" has the memory of rebirth.
A picture flashed in Yi Lin's mind.
But there is only a picture.
It was actually difficult for him to combine countless scenes into coherent memory fragments.
