This chapter: Actually, it's also the last few chapters, Eason Chan, the night is no longer coming

Only then did he open his eyes when the vibration of the surrounding air disappeared and Brother Jiu felt his feet on solid ground. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Looking at his surroundings again, he almost burst into tears.

At this moment, he and Sjepan landed on a polished marble floor, in front of a round conference table, a large room, several men in suits and leather shoes were sitting around the table, with computers and laptops open in front of them, and people were doing displays

The sound in the room was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the two of them, and everyone stopped, staring at the two people on the ground in amazement.

Someone slowly stood up and asked in a frightened voice, "Ninth Master?!" ”

Brother Jiu tried to squeeze out a smile: "Good morning." ”

Sjepan struggled twice before he got up from the ground, staring at the man who had spoken, stunned: "Who is he?" ”

Brother Jiu took a breath and stood up with the chair next to him: "It's the vice president of my company." ”

The place where they fell was the company that Brother Jiu built with the strength of the research institute, and they just fell into the conference room!

Brother Jiu knew that he couldn't cause panic, he took a deep breath and smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, everyone, I'm uh, I'm participating in the filming of a costume drama." Let's leave this alone, oh yes, please get Andre here, okay? ”

He regretted a little that he explained to his subordinates that it was difficult to leave his job temporarily to study abroad, and he went to Hengdian to study abroad?

But at this moment, he didn't care about the expressions of those vice presidents, and grabbed Sjepan with his hand: "Come here, go to my office first." ”

In front of everyone's eyes, Brother Jiu led the stunned Sjepan in official robes, like a tattered tractor, and clicked to the elevator room. As soon as the elevator opened, Brother Jiu's administrative secretary was standing inside with a stack of materials, and when she saw his strange appearance of dragging braids, her face turned white with fright! stammered: "Nine, Nine"

Brother Nine smiled at her: "SS, trouble to the sixteenth floor." ”

The little girl quickly came back to her senses and hurriedly pressed the button on the sixteenth floor.

The elevator of a group of people, silently.

SS finally couldn't help but ask: "Ninth Master, what are you?"

Brother Jiu smiled hard: "I'm uh, filming, Qing palace drama." ”

He pointed to Sjepan: "You see, there are foreigners. Very grand plot. Kowloon wins the heir, you know? ”

The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand, and she stared timidly at Brother Jiu's shoulder: "Then, this is on your shoulder"

Brother Jiu turned his head sideways and looked at the knife stuck in his shoulder: "Props." ”

"Why is there still blood?"

"This is a shooting error."

Finally got to the sixteenth floor, the two of them came out of the elevator, and Brother Jiu carried the knife on his shoulder, grabbed Sjepan and limped into the president's office, closing the door.

The other department director in the elevator barely retracted his gaze for a long time, he looked at the ss next to him, and coughed unnaturally: "The knife on the shoulder of the ninth master is so realistic." ”

Andre rushed over as soon as possible and sent Brother Jiu, who was stabbed in his shoulder, to the hospital.

The development of the space-time breakthrough and the true identity of the Nine Elder Brothers, these secrets are only known to the core small group where Andre belongs, and the people in the Nine Elder Brothers' company do not know.

Brother Nine was sent to the emergency room, during which Andre found someone to place Sjepan down, he bent down, looked at Sjepan and said softly, "You don't remember me?" ”

Sjepan looked up blankly and looked at him for a long time, his eyes full of confusion and weariness.

Andrei had already learned about the situation over there through the equipment, and he also knew that Sjepan was an official over there, but at this moment, seeing him wearing the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty and standing in front of him with a confused face, Andrei still couldn't help but feel sad.

The knife on Brother Jiu's shoulder was quickly pulled out, and the doctor gave him sutures and bandaged, but fortunately, the injury was not serious. He came out of the emergency room and told Andre about the general situation, and Brother Jiu said that because the incident was urgent at that time, the two of them really couldn't escape, so he had to bring Sjepan over.

Andrei asked tentatively, "Do you want me to bring Sjepan back?" I don't think he's emotionally stable. ”

Brother Jiu shook his head: "I'll take him back." He was scared, didn't you see that he was stunned? I'll have to make it clear to him. ”

Andrei nodded: "It's okay." In addition, on the side of the Qing Dynasty, the fourth master has already learned about it. ”

When Brother Nine pressed the converter button, because there was a chain reaction between the two devices, once he disappeared, Brother Ten, who was also wearing this special necklace, would immediately know.

"The fourth master said that at present, the eighth master is pacifying the copy. The gang of gangsters who broke into the House of Internal Affairs were caught, and they had already confessed that they belonged to the Heaven and Earth Society, and had been plotting to kill Sjepan. ”

Brother Jiu nodded: "I guessed, this kid has been killing people like hemp in the past ten years, and the anti-Qing and Ming restoration organizations have long hated him." ”

When he said this, the two of them were speechless for a while.

Brother Nine perked up and said, "I'll change the medicine again tomorrow and go back, the copy will cause trouble over there, and I can't be appeased by my starling brother alone." ”

Andrei nodded, he thought for a moment, and then asked, "Will Sjepan stay?" ”

Brother Jiu raised his head, he looked at Sjepan, who was standing in the corridor outside, hanging his hands and staring at the street scene in a daze, shook his head, and said in a dumb voice: "I'm afraid, he won't." ”

Brother Nine changed his clothes, and Andre called another subordinate who knew about it, and drove Brother Nine and Sjepan back.

Brother Jiu bought an apartment by himself, and the single-family elevator went up to the seventh floor, he took out the key to open the door, and then looked at Sjepan who was following him: "Come in, my house has arrived." ”

This is the residence of Brother Jiu alone, Brother Ten bought a house and moved out by himself in the third year after he came, he was engaged in painting creation, his schedule was inconsistent with Brother Jiu, and living together disturbed each other This is Brother Ten's rhetoric, but Brother Nine felt that this was not the main reason.

Brother Ten needs space alone, Brother Nine's temperament has changed greatly in recent years, and he has long lost his former cheerfulness and positivity, but Brother Ten can't help it, which makes him feel extremely painful.

But he still cares about Brother Jiu, and comes to take care of him from time to time, buy vegetables and cook, and clean up the house for him. Later, he began to take medicine again, and Brother Ten was very worried about him, as long as the medicine was taken out of Brother Nine's room, Brother Ten was not happy, and either called Brother over and over again, or simply informed Andre that Brother Nine was abusing drugs. It annoyed Brother Jiu, so he had to hide those tranquilizers in the company.

When he was leaving this time, Brother Jiu was worried that he would not bring any medicine back to Daqing, and his body would probably not be able to bear it. Unexpectedly, when he returned to Daqing, his emotions were miraculously appeased, and although he still had a lot of pain in his heart, he didn't take any more medicine.

The two of them came into the room, Brother Jiu closed the door, the room had been cleaned by the people from the nanny company, Brother Jiu put down the bag, he looked back at Sjepan: "Change your clothes, go take a shower later, it's inconvenient to wear this at home." ”

Sjepan stood there, looking at him with no expression on his face, he was still wearing the same official uniform, although it looked a little dirty, but Sjepan refused to take it off.

Brother Jiu had no choice but to open the bag he brought, take out the clothes inside, and put them on the sofa one by one.

"You see, Andrei has everything ready for you, even underwear. Change out of the official uniform first, and I will ask someone to send it to the nanny company for dry cleaning, and I can get it back for you at night. ”

Maybe it was Brother Jiu's sincere tone, or maybe it was the past few hours, when Sjepan kept seeing these modern clothes, he finally hesitated and unbuttoned his official uniform.

Brother Jiu handed him the clothes: "The bathroom is at the top of the corridor, the red is hot water, and the blue is cold water." ”

He didn't say anything more, and Brother Nine decided that Sjepan knew how to use the shower, and that he must have read the English on the shampoo bottles, and not drink them as drinks.

Sjepan took his clothes and looked at him again before heading to the bathroom.

Brother Jiu looked at his back and sighed softly.

From here to now, for several hours, Sjepan has never said a word, no matter what Andre and Brother Jiu said to him, he didn't respond, including sitting in the car just now, Brother Jiu looked surprised when he saw him staring at the scenery galloping outside the car window, but he didn't ask a word.

That night's dinner was made by Brother Jiu himself, maybe unintentionally, or maybe it was a coincidence, the fried dishes were exactly the ones he made last time he went to Si Jiepan's house: chopped pepper fish, stir-fried kale, green pepper beef, and broad bean and egg soup.

Sjepan came out of the bathroom, he looked at the dishes on the table, but he didn't move.

"Sit down." Brother Jiu pointed to the table opposite, and then scooped up the hot rice and put it in front of Si Jiepan, "Taste the rice in four hundred years, no, seventy years later, it is said to be an improved rice seed, I can't taste the difference anyway, I guess you can't do it." ”

Wearing the gray cardigan that Andrei bought for him, he walked to the dining table, sat down slowly, did not reach for the chopsticks, but suddenly said, "Why did you save me?" ”

Brother Jiu was stunned, he didn't expect Si Jiepan to ask this for the first time.

"Because you saved me." He said lightly, "Saved me many times." Although you have forgotten. ”

Sjepan frowned: "I didn't save the Ninth Master. ”

"You forgot." Brother Jiu was not angry, and still said lightly, "Don't talk about these old sesame seeds and rotten grains, the rice is going to be cold, eat it quickly." ”

Si Jie Pan suddenly sneered: "The Ninth Master has really changed his temperament, he refused to let go of even a cat before, but now he is a living Bodhisattva!" ”

When Brother Jiu heard this, his heart ached slightly, he lowered his head and put down his chopsticks, stood up, and after a while, he walked back with a picture frame and placed it in front of Sjepan.

In the frame is Brother Jiu, holding a cat in his arms.

It is an ordinary yellow cat, and it is held by Brother Jiu with its four paws facing the sky, revealing its snow-white belly.

The cat looks fat, although it is held like that, it does not look panicked, as if it is very close to Brother Jiu.

"This cat is also called Putin." Brother Jiu said, "I picked it up from the garbage heap downstairs, it was a little small when I first came, and I took a needle to feed it milk powder." ”

Sjepan looked at the photo in amazement.

"I raised it for seven years, and last year, I got sick and died." Brother Jiu said, "This is to blame me, always on a business trip, a business trip to fly all over the world, not at home for a few months in a row, the old ten live far away, and he often goes out, I can only let the nanny company come to take care of it, the cat is locked in the house all day long, no one cares, it's too lonely." ”

Sjepan stared at the photo with a strange expression, not knowing whether he was confused about the authenticity of Brother Jiu's words, or why Brother Jiu appeared in the photo.

"I miss that Putin, the one that was killed." Brother Jiu continued, "But I didn't know it was dead, so I had to raise another one, but I didn't expect this one to die too." I wasn't at home when it died, and the people from the babysitting company came to clean it and found it dead there, on the floor next to the couch. ”

Brother Jiu pointed in the direction of the living room.

"I don't want to have a cat anymore." Brother Nine looked at Sjepan, "Unless life can be completely stabilized, or you can come back and help me." ”

Sjepan looked at him and said nothing, he put down the frame and picked up his chopsticks.

Although the knife wound on his body was still aching, Brother Jiu still worked at the desk for a long time that night, and the person came back anyway, so it was better to take this opportunity to deal with some long-standing official affairs.

He pointed out the guest bedroom to Sjepan, telling him to speak if he needed anything. "I don't see you eat much for dinner, if you're hungry at night, just tell me, I'll order takeout."

Sjepan didn't answer him, just stared out the window with indifferent eyes.

Brother Jiu didn't say anything more, closed the door and went back to his room.

He wasn't sure how much Stepan remembered, or even, didn't want to remember at all? But no matter how much he remembered, this trip must have had a big impact on Sjepan.

After dealing with business, Brother Jiu looked up at the clock on the wall, it was already nine o'clock, the ancients used to go to bed early, and Sjepan should have rested at this time, right?

He thought about it, but he still couldn't hold back, got up and went to the guest bedroom.

Brother Jiu knocked on the door, but there was no sound inside, and he gently pushed the door open.

Sjepan didn't sleep, he sat by the bay window and looked out at the night. There were no lights on in the room.

This room faces the street, for the developed modern society, nine o'clock is still early, the lights are on, the traffic is like a river, like a ** surging river of light, the rows of neon billboards on the opposite side are opened, vermilion and green orange, dazzling overflowing, flashing for a while, almost half of the night sky is red.

Sjepan sat alone in the dark, the inky black covered his thin and lonely body, he seemed to be alone in the bottomless quagmire, and there was the hustle and bustle of red dust just a stone's throw away, but the lights and wine, the bustle of singing and dancing had nothing to do with him, he sat alone in a corner, no one could see him, and he couldn't see anyone else.

Nothing to do with him.

Brother Jiu suddenly felt extremely sad, and he walked over slowly and looked at him.

"If it's noisy, you can close the curtains."

In fact, the glass is closed, and although the light from the outside can be seen, the sound is isolated.

Sjepan turned his face and looked at him blankly, "Why did you bring me here?" ”

Brother Jiu grinned: "Isn't this not the people of the Heaven and Earth Society who are chasing and killing you?" ”

"You can send me back immediately, and have that Andre send me back as soon as you come over." Sjepan looked at him, "Why did you leave me here?" ”

Brother Jiu was told that he was the center, so he had to say, "I won't leave you for too long, let's go back tomorrow." ”

"You want me to remember, don't you?" Sjepan stared at him, "You still want to force me to remember, you brought me here for the purpose of this." ”

Brother Jiu was speechless by him.

"I know I'm from here, and I'll admit that I'm very familiar with everything here. But I'm disappointed, I don't want to stay here. ”

Brother Jiu couldn't help but say: "What's wrong with returning to your original life!" Sjepan, are you happy in Daqing! ”

"At least happier than being here." Sjepan's face was pale, his eyes were like scorching stars in the dark night, "Do you know what it's like to have your life broken into pieces?" Do you know what it's like to not be connected yesterday and today at all? My past is like this, Ninth Master, thanks to you, or I don't know who gave it. I couldn't find where I belonged, I didn't know who I was, and I didn't know what I had to do, like a piece of grass in a storm. I have used several years of strength, day and night hard work, only to stabilize my foothold in Daqing, and now you are coming to tell me, that is not my life, I should not be loyal to Daqing, and I should not hate you eight masters, my efforts are boring. Then I have to be uprooted again, back to this world that I have long forgotten about the ninth master, I am not young anymore, I don't have the courage to uproot again, even if you are right, but in the Qing Dynasty I am obviously alive and well, and I have no regrets, why do you have to use me to satisfy your selfish wishes? Please do well, let me go, okay? ”

Brother Jiu looked at the unfamiliar face in the dark, he moved his lips, but finally didn't say anything.

The door shut, and the room was quiet again, and Sjepan turned his face away, looking out the window at the strange night flickering. After a long time, bend down and hug your knees.

He was shivering.

Brother Nine returned to the study, he sat at the table blankly, and his ears kept echoing the words of Sjepan.

He said that this was Brother Jiu's "selfish wish", and Brother Jiu suddenly thought that maybe Sjepan was right.

Pulling Sjepan back to his old life was not Sjepan's own will, but his desire, perhaps he just wanted to prove that he had persevered for the past ten years, not needless patience.

It's just that Brother Jiu never expected that although he had made full preparations, Sjepan refused to come back.

The next day, Sjepan changed back into a clean official uniform, and Brother Jiu asked him if there was anything he wanted to bring back because he was about to return to Daqing.

Sjepan lowered his head: "Xiaguan doesn't have anything to want. ”

Brother Jiu sighed: "If you refuse to come over, then Sjiepan, it is very likely that you will not deal with this side again in the future." Do you really don't want anything anymore? ”

Sjepan was silent for a long time, and finally stumbled and said, "I want that picture if I can." ”

Brother Jiu was stunned: "Which photo?" ”

Sjepan mustered up his courage and raised his head: "It's the one you showed me at dinner last night." ”

Brother Jiu was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything, turned back to the study, took the photo frame, and handed it to Sjiepan: "Take it all, and the photo frame will be given to you too." ”

Sjepan looked at the photo again, then tucked the frame into his clothes, and said, "That's fine." ”

On the way to the research institute, Brother Jiu suddenly said while driving, "I have a question for you." ”

Sjepan was stunned: "What's the problem?" ”

Brother Jiu held the steering wheel in his hand, his eyes were still looking at the road ahead, and his voice was very steady: "If you don't want to answer, don't answer, but don't lie to me Sjiepan, who killed the head stuffed into my official sedan chair?" Is it your hand? ”

It was a long time before he heard the answer from Sjepan in the back seat, "No." The man committed suicide. "To be continued.
