After leaving the pine forest, Li Dongsheng's speed immediately increased a lot without blocking. When he passed the ditch at the edge of the farmland, he threw the dagger in his hand with great force.

Before long, it was completely dark, but this did not affect Li Dongsheng's speed. On the contrary, he was a few points faster. The reason is that he has an indescribable intimacy with the night, which gives him a certain increase in strength.

It wasn't until he left the farmland and got onto the wide gravel road that his speed slowed down. Because at this time, he no longer has to worry that someone will follow his footsteps.

Li Dongsheng didn't know that when he walked into the center street, Hu Yunfang and Chen Shudeng were following his footprints. However, due to the darkness, their vision was affected, so they had to stop and wait for help.

The central street, which is very busy during the day, seems a little deserted at night, and this is exactly what Li Dongsheng wants, and he runs towards his house as fast as he can. When he was about to get home, he poked a hole in the dagger and took off his bloodstained long-sleeved T-shirt and held it in his hand. This is done so that parents don't see the clues.

The supermarket at home is generally not open at night, and when the neighbors are in need, they will shout below. As long as someone is home, they will go down and open the door to sell things.

The iron door had been locked, and because he was in a hurry, Li Dongsheng did not bring the key. When he got to the door, he let out a long breath, and then he shouted, "Mom, I'm back." ”

Soon after, the door of the parents' room opened, and the mother, dressed in cotton silk pajamas, appeared at the door, and as soon as she came out, she complained: "Why is it so urgent that you can't even take care of eating?" ”

Knowing that lies are easy to be exposed, Li Dongsheng simply said: "Mom, don't ask, I'm so old, I always have some secrets of my own, don't I?" ”

"No matter how old you are, you have to call me Mom." As Yang Liu spoke, he casually closed the door and walked towards the stairs.

Although Li Dongsheng had already tidied up his appearance, Yang Liu still exclaimed when he saw him: "What did you do, how did you make it look like this?" ”

"I didn't get in the car and ran back." When Li Dongsheng spoke, his mother had already unlocked the door, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll come, I'm sweating, I'm going to go up to take a shower, and I'm going to report to the county tomorrow." ”

Seeing his son open the door, Yang Liu said, "I'll lock the door, you hurry up and take a bath, so as not to catch a cold." ”

Li Dongsheng naturally didn't insist, so he went upstairs to take a bath. When he left, Yang Liu remembered that he forgot to ask him if he was hungry. Then he thought that since he didn't say it, he should have already eaten, so he locked the door and turned back.

In the bathroom, Li Dongsheng first turned on the cold water and rinsed for a while, and then, suddenly remembered something, and turned the faucet handle to the hot water.

He did this to try the hot water, the reason is naturally that the various sensations in his body have returned to their original state after sucking blood, and he wants to try to see if the hot water is also the same as before.

The solar water heater is very slow to get hot water, and it takes nearly ten seconds to get out of the pipeline, despite the short lines. Because of the anticipation, these ten seconds were still a long time for him, so much so that he didn't even notice when the water temperature of the shower head changed drastically. By the time he reacted, the water temperature was already very high. And he didn't feel any discomfort, on the contrary, he relived the comfort of pouring hot water in the past.

At this moment, he understood that everything he had endured before had to do with not sucking blood. In the future, as long as he continues to absorb fresh blood, he will say goodbye to all kinds of discomfort he experienced before.

After taking a bath, Li Dongsheng, who had not been so relaxed for a long time, felt a thick tiredness, he didn't do anything else, picked up his mobile phone and set the alarm clock and lay down.

As soon as he lay down, Xiao Ming's crisp voice sounded in his head: "You sucked blood?" ”

Li Dongsheng turned his head to look at the windowsill, and when he saw Xiao Ming lying on the windowsill looking at him, he nodded, but did not speak.

"It looks like it's working well." As he spoke, Xiao Ming's words changed: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and there is always a first time in everything." ”

"What do you know as a worm?" Li Dongsheng couldn't help but say.

"What's wrong with the bugs? Looking down on bugs? Besides, am I the same bugs as you know? Xiao Ming was very angry, so he asked three questions in succession.

"No matter how special you are, you're still a bug."

"Ignore you." When Xiao Ming spoke, he directly turned around and left his ass to Li Dongsheng.

Li Dongsheng, who hadn't slept peacefully for a long time, didn't speak, so he turned off the light directly, and it didn't take long for him to breathe evenly.

Xiao Ming, who noticed this, immediately turned around, and then flapped his wings and flew above the bed. I want to do something to teach Li Dongsheng a lesson, so that he can pay more attention to his next speech. But it hovered above Li Dongsheng for a while, but in the end it didn't find a suitable way, so it had to give up helplessly. However, it has already made up its mind in its heart that once it has the opportunity, it must find its way back. After making this decision, Xiao Ming flew back to the windowsill and crouched there looking at the sky outside.

It wasn't raining outside, but it wasn't sunny, so there was no moonless night or even starlight. So Xiao Ming had nothing to do, it wasn't that he didn't want to go out and have a look. But because of the mosquito control, although the window is open, there is a screen to block it, and it can't get out at all. It had no choice but to dismiss the idea of going out to see, and continued to lie motionless. It looked the same way it did when it absorbed the moonlight.

The alarm clock woke up Li Dongsheng, who hadn't slept well for a long time, and after stretching his waist, he sat up suddenly, and then turned over and got out of bed. Getting enough sleep makes him feel refreshed.

During breakfast, Li Dongsheng didn't feel that uncomfortable, although his nervous mood was relaxed, he didn't completely relax. Because his ease is only temporary, and the fundamental problem is not solved. He didn't know how long he could suck blood, and besides, the source of the blood hadn't been resolved. These questions were like a big rock weighing on his heart, making him unable to relax.

Because it is still some distance away from the county seat, Li Dongsheng packed up and prepared to set off after breakfast. At 7:40, he took his mobile phone key or something and prepared to go out.

But Xiao Ming stopped the way, looking at Xiao Ming who was fluttering his wings and staying in front of him, Li Dongsheng immediately asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"I'm going out with you."

For Xiao Ming's request, Li Dongsheng immediately hesitated, as if he knew his worries, Xiao Ming immediately said: "Don't worry, no one can see me except you." ”

Li Dongsheng knew that what Xiao Ming said was the truth, and every time he looked for Xiao Ming, he didn't rely on his eyes, but on his feelings. He could feel the special connection between him and Xiao Ming.

Therefore, he said, "I'm not worried about you being seen by others, but I want to know what your purpose is." ”

"There's no purpose, just to see the outside world, and besides, I can't always stay in the house."

"Well, how are you going to go? Flying after me? ”

"Fly, aren't you tired? I'll fall on your shoulder. ”

"It's up to you, let's go, it's not good to be late."

At half past eight, Li Dongsheng met Pan Luyao, who had called him, in the office of the Personnel Section of the Organization Department, and through inquiry, he knew that Pan Luyao was the section chief.

Knowing Pan Luyao's identity, coupled with what he said before, a leader wanted to see him, combined with what Du Zhuqing said to him, he couldn't help but have some expectations for his future. Of course, it's more apprehension. The reason why he was worried was because he didn't understand why he, a civil servant with no background, would encounter such a strange situation. Although he knew that he always wanted to know the truth, he was still very puzzled before that. It's more about curiosity, and there's more about worry. Although it is not inferior to officialdom, I have heard of officialdom ruthlessly. He was worried that he would become a tool of some people's struggle, and that he would not even know how he would die when the time came.

Just as Li Dongsheng walked into Pan Luyao's office, Hu Yunfang and Chen Shudeng appeared at the west end of Zhongxin Street with three uniformed policemen and a police dog seconded from the Xichu City Public Security Bureau, from where Li Dongsheng left and came back yesterday.
