Port Klang, adjacent to Kuala Lumpur, is one of the most important ports in Malaysia.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, where there are harbors, there are downtown and bars, and sailors returning from the sea, if there is no place for them to sway freely, they will definitely go crazy. In a cosmopolitan port like Port Klang, the bar flood is comparable to mushrooming.

Zhang Ran took Richard the monkey and sat in the corner of a bar at this time, watching TV.

A person like Zhang Ran, although he is not very old, but he has a wealth of experience in his life, and it is almost as thick as a sea of words to write a book, even if the monkey Richard is almost ten years older than Zhang Ranlai, but what he has just experienced still makes him sit down, and pour whiskey into his stomach one after another.

"If you drink it any more, you'll get drunk."

Although Zhang Ran was also holding a glass, it was not filled with wine, but water, the best bottled water in this bar. But to outsiders it looked like he was drinking, because he drank very slowly, slowly, one sip after another, as if he was tasting some supreme delicacy.

"Drunk?" Monkey Richard's face showed a hint of enlightenment for the rest of his life, and he laughed loudly: "If you are drunk, you will be drunk, and God will ......bless you to be able to come back alive this time."

Just as Richard the Monkey was giving his speech, Zhang Ran didn't listen at all, his attention was drawn to the TV hanging above the bar, and the news was playing on the TV at this time.

"Stay here!"

Zhang Ran just glanced up, then got up and slapped Richard on the shoulder, and then left the bar in a hurry.

Bars and hotels are often not separated, Zhang Ran came out of the bar and entered the small hotel next door. Although this hotel does not look very glamorous, it was recommended by Richard and it is good for money.

In fact, the most important thing in staying in a hotel is hygiene and safety, and in these two aspects, even Chen Xinyi is difficult to find faults. Standing outside the door of Chen Xinyi's room, Zhang Ran raised his hand and knocked but no one came to open the door, fortunately, this kind of door was still difficult for Zhang Ran, when he opened the door and went in, he saw Chen Xinyi staring at the TV in amazement.

"I knew ......" muttered in a low voice, Zhang Ran found the remote control and turned off the TV. However, even so, Chen Xinyi still stared at the pitch-black screen as if she had lost her soul.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Shaking his head, Zhang Ran stepped forward and hugged Chen Xinyi in his arms, and at this time Chen Xinyi trembled and cried loudly.

"My family...... That's my family......"

"Well, I know, there's a fire." Zhang Ran gently patted Chen Xinyi's back and comforted her.

"It's not a fire, it's an explosion, an explosion!"

Chen Xinyi struggled to stand up straight, her eyes were red with blood, tears couldn't stop flowing on her cheeks, and her eye sockets, which were deeply sunken because of the experience at sea, looked more and more bruised.

"Lie down and rest, it's okay, when your body recovers, I'll accompany you back to have a look." Although Zhang Ran didn't have much expression on his face, he felt that his heart was a little twitching, he hadn't felt this way for a long time, he was not used to it.

"No!"

I don't know where Chen Xinyi got the strength to break free from the shackles of Zhang Ran's hands, get out of Zhang Ran's arms, and yell: "I want to go home, I want to go home!" ”

"No! As soon as you go out now, you risk being targeted! Don't you want to live? ”

Zhang Ran pressed Chen Xinyi again, and the result was that the two fell on the bed together! But at this time, no one could think about that aspect, Chen Xinyi was not Zhang Ran's opponent after all, she was tired after a few struggles, she gave up and lay down, her eyes looked at the ceiling without focus, and she just muttered in the air, "I want to go home...... I'm going home......"

If he encountered such a thing in the past, Zhang Ran would definitely stick to his decision, and most of the time, impulsiveness would only make mistakes.

But today, when he looked at Chen Xinyi lying on the bed, with a poignant look and two lines of tears that never dried, his heart softened.

"Why don't we leave in the afternoon."

From Phama to Kualumpur, it is said that it is not far away, and it is not close to say that it is not close. With the current traffic situation, it is not easy to arrive immediately, not to mention that Zhang Ran has no transportation in his hands.

Chen Xinyi, who was on the bed, heard Zhang Ran say this, and sat up with her hands wiped from her tears, "Really? Leaving in the afternoon? ”

"I'll leave in the afternoon!"

Nodding, Zhang Ran stood up and said, "I'll get a car." ”

"I'm just a phone call away, ......"

"You forgot, you can't contact the outside world, and now the situation is unknown."

"Yes......"

When Zhang Ran agreed to Chen Xinyi to go to Kuala Lumpur, Chen Xinyi calmed down instead, and she walked into the bathroom while wiping the residual tears on her face. Zhang Ran had just walked to the door when Chen Xinyi's voice came out of the bathroom, "Can you, help me buy a set of clothes." ”

"Hmm."

After answering lightly, Zhang Ran closed the door and left.

……

Although Malaysia is not a very developed country, there is still a highway connecting the two places from the important port of Klang to the center of Kuala Lumpur.

"Zhang Ran, do you really believe that guy and won't expose us?"

"Of course not, he's a smart man, and he should know that on the freighter he sees too many things he shouldn't see. The best way for him to do this is to find a place to hide until it's over. ”

Staring at the road surface at high speed, Zhang Ran said calmly.

At this time, Chen Xinyi seems to have finally returned to the mentality of the past, and there is finally that kind of calm and wisdom in her eyes. Looking at Chen Xinyi from the rearview mirror, Zhang Ran didn't know which of Chen Xinyi's faces was more worthy of his appreciation, was it the little girl who heard the nightmares, or the female president Fan most of the time?

"Go down at the front exit."

Of course, Chen Xinyi couldn't guess Zhang Ran's thoughts, and she stared at the street signs most of the time, for fear of missing the exit. Because she didn't stay in Malaysia for much, when she took this road home, it was even more rare.

In fact, there is no need for Chen Xinyi to remind Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran will not go wrong, for people like him, the ability to find the way is almost his instinct, the instinct that he has trained the day after tomorrow.

Zhang Ran drove the "borrowed" car and just drove off the highway, when he found that the speed of the traffic dropped significantly, that is, half an hour's effort, and it was like three fire trucks.

"The fire in my house hasn't been extinguished yet?"

Obviously, Chen Xinyi did not ignore these firetrucks, and she couldn't help but feel worried on her face again.

"Who else is in the house?"

"Parents."

Chen Xinyi, who looked at Chen Xinyi in front of her with her eyes, replied without turning her head.

Zhang Ran actually wanted to remind Chen Xinyi not to have too much hope, but he couldn't say the words when he came to his lips. Judging from Chen Xinyi's expression, Zhang Ran felt that he should have accepted this reality, but he still had strong expectations in his heart.

And Chen Xinyi's expectation was completely shattered when they arrived at the periphery of the fire, the white cloth corpse placed on the side of the street.

As calm as Chen Xinyi, who was not controlled by Zhang Ran at this time, rushed over and lifted the white quilts one by one.

Zhang Ran couldn't stop Chen Xinyi because he was busy inquiring about another thing - why the body was still here after most of the day. After inquiry, Zhang Ran learned that he was willing because Chen Xinyi's house was too big and there were too many servants, and when the explosion occurred, the entire main building and the podium on both sides burned, and there was no time to transfer these corpses away, so they could only be placed like this first.

And the fire is still burning, the podium on the left has burned and collapsed, the podium on the right is slightly better, but it is also crumbling, as for the main building, I am afraid that because it is the core of the explosion, it has already been burned into a pile of ashes.

According to Zhang Ran's judgment, as long as Chen Xinyi's parents were still in the main building at the time of the explosion, there was absolutely no possibility of survival, although Zhang Ran was unwilling to accept this result, but the facts are the facts, in that case, even if Zhang Ran was in the main building, there was nowhere to escape.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ran looked at Chen Xinyi, and just saw Chen Xinyi lift a white sheet, but the whole person shook suddenly, as if he was about to fall.

"Oops!"

While secretly frightened in his heart, Zhang Ran started at the same time, as if a cheetah rushed over and held Chen Xinyi in general.

"Mother's ......"

Under the sheet that opened a corner, there was a charred corpse, Zhang Ran didn't know how Chen Xinyi judged, but at this time he was not in the mood or there was no need to verify it, because a black high-end car convoy was driving in under the guidance of the police.

Needless to say, the high-end team starting with Mercedes-Benz 600 is by no means a relevant department, but Chen Xinyi's "family", and in Zhang Ran's view, the most unreliable at this time is Chen Xinyi's family.

"Gotta go, your family is here."

Chen Xinyi was still a little hesitant, she reached out to touch the cheek of the charred corpse, Zhang Ran sighed, and looked up at the convoy.

The Maybach in the center happened to pass by Zhang Ran's side. When Zhang Ran saw the window in the back seat of the Maybach slowly lowered halfway, he secretly screamed in his heart again.

"Let's go!"

I can't let Chen Xinyi remember here anymore, Maybach's gloomy eyes made Zhang Ran feel threatened, a huge threat!

"That's my uncle, my own uncle!"

Chen Xinyi, who was stuffed into the car by Zhang Ran and calmed down, said while combing her messy hair.

"He must have come to see the results......" Zhang Ran said secretly in his heart.

"Kill him, whatever you want."

Chen Xinyi turned her head and looked at Zhang Ran with both eyes.

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Ran took five seconds to digest Chen Xinyi's change. He had just met Chen Shanren, a former employer, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't contact Bai Ge for the time being, Zhang Ran really wanted Bai Ge to get a photo of Chen Shanren, enlarged it and hung it on the wall, so that Chen Xinyi could vent it first.

"Let's go, your uncle has already found you."

Zhang Ran started the car, and the expression on Chen Xinyi's face did not change at all, but nodded silently, and then honestly fastened the seat belt and waited for Zhang Ran to start.
