Zhang Liang's playful laughter was heard on the other end of the phone.

"Yo, finally remembered me? I thought you had forgotten about it? Then he said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

Wang Ren's tone was very calm: "Special department, Cheng Qi." ”

Zhang Liang sighed: "You are really good, boy!" I said three things at the beginning, such a first thing, and there was such a big problem? ”

Wang Ren: "Can't do it?" ”

"Huh." He laughed strangely and continued: "Although the people in the special department are not easy to touch, I, Zhang Liang, also have some ability!" ”

Wang Ren smiled: "That's good, thank you." ”

"What? Just hang up the phone? His voice was frivolous, "Why don't we talk first?" ”

Wang Ren responded very seriously: "Okay, what do you say?" ”

He replied quickly, his voice was calm and clear, and Zhang Liang couldn't remember what he was talking about for a while. He looked left and right and said into the phone, "Uh... You, do you remember when you saved that kid in H City? ”

Wang Ren: "Remember, your buddy is very difficult to deal with. ”

Zhang Liang chuckled: "If you had run into me at the beginning, it might have been over... Why didn't you run into me? ”

Wang Ren did not answer.

Zhang Liang continued: "How did you hide at that time? Can you tell us about it? It's been a long time, and I'm a bit of a Taoist, but I don't understand it. ”

Wang Ren's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled: "Okay! But you have to exchange some information, right? I can't pass on the secrets in vain, don't you say? ”

"Poof!" Zhang Liang's voice raised: "What's the secret?" Do you really think it's up to the sky? Tell me, what do you want to know? ”

Wang Ren raised his eyes and stared ahead: "Can I know about the employer who hired you that time?" ”

The other party was silent for a moment before saying: "No, this is the rule, even if I don't do this business in the future, the identity of the employer cannot be revealed." ”

"Okay, then you can guess slowly! Good bye! Without waiting for anyone to reply, he hung up the phone.

Three days later, Wang Ren received a call from Zhang Liang.

It was a rare sunny day, the April breeze was soft and comfortable, and people came and went, just like usual.

Wang Ren stood at the door of the agreed place, he took out his mobile phone, and the time showed 12:13.

The agreed place was a hot pot restaurant, Zhang Liang was shabu mutton, and when he saw Wang Ren enter the door, he beckoned him to come over to eat.

Wang Ren sat on the side, didn't ask anything first, and ate first.

Zhang Liang glanced at him and said with a smile: "It's good to follow my brother, right?" I opened this hot pot restaurant with a buddy, and the bottom of the pot is a must, and other places don't have this taste! What do you think? ”

Wang Ren took two bites: "The taste is okay, but I have also eaten something better than this." ”

Zhang Liang sighed: "You kid is such a bad person, what's the matter?" Is your guy still a good cook? ”

Wang Ren glanced at him, and said, "Come on, eat and eat, let's talk about things." ”

Zhang Liang looked at him for a moment before taking him to the back room, he put away his smile and said: "This person is not leaky, and there are not many things that can be found, a few years ago he died of a bloodless brother, and then he became close to the research institute." ”

Wang Ren was stunned, and then the information given by Zhang Liang slowly flipped through, and there was no specific thing he was doing in the information, but he saw a person very often, and his name was: Xue Zhiming.

Wang Ren's eyes widened, it was actually him!

But the information does not show that he participated in this real yàn!

Wang Ren frowned: "Didn't you find anything else?" ”

Zhang Liang spread his hands: "No, it's not easy to check so much, this person is a thief!" ”

Wang Ren came out of the hot pot restaurant, and after thinking about it, he decided to call Ling Xiao to remind him.

Bustling with people coming and going, the surrounding sounds were very noisy, and he shook the taxi and dialed Ling Xiao's phone at the same time.

"I'm sorry, but the phone you made is off."

The mechanical female voice came slowly.

Wang Ren dialed it again, but it was still turned off.

What are you up to? Wang Ren frowned and looked at the time: 13:25.

He decided to go back to school first, as there were still classes to come.

Classes start at 14:30.

Wang Ren was very careless in this class, and he didn't know why he was always restless, he thought about it or thought that he should call Ling Xiao.

At the end of class, he walked out of the classroom and was thinking about making a phone call, when he saw Professor Xue with a flicker of his eyes!

Professor Xue carried a briefcase and walked around the campus, he was dressed cleanly and decently, he smiled kindly, and from time to time students greeted him, and he responded kindly, like a good teacher.

Wang Ren's heart moved, and suddenly remembered the appearance of the real person described by Yu Yikun, so he followed.

He walked very lightly, there were a lot of trees in A, and the surroundings were noisy, it was very easy to talk to a person, he slowly walked to the front, and saw that Professor Xue was walking towards a car parked on the side of the road, there was a person in the car, but he couldn't see his face clearly through the window, his mind moved, so he took out his mobile phone and took a face photo of Professor Xue.

Professor Xue got into the car the next moment, and the car started immediately.

Wang Ren held it in his hand steadily, and the photo was quite clear, and he immediately sent the photo to Yu Yikun.

After waiting for about fifty minutes, Yu Yikun replied-

'Sorry, I didn't see Ling's press conference just now. This person is the leader of the reality I saw at the beginning.

Wang Ren's eyelids jumped unconsciously! His heart suddenly sank, and he hurriedly dialed Ling Xiao's number! Time: 15:58.

"I'm sorry, but the person you're calling is on a call."

I don't know why he was suddenly a little anxious, he dialed again after a while, and the phone rang! But the next moment came-

"Sorry, the user you are calling is turned off."

Shutdown? Still on the phone? Can you still dial, are you busy with something? He looked at the time: 16:00.

Wang Ren frowned, he thought for a moment and dialed Zou Yun's phone.

The phone rang only twice before it was connected, and Wang Ren's heart was relieved for a moment.

"Hey, Wang Ren?"

Hearing this voice, Wang Ren's eyes immediately widened, he looked ahead, and slowly spoke: "Zou Cheng? ”

"Yes."

Wang Ren was immediately shocked! I haven't noticed it for so long, but Zou Cheng's voice is clear in my ears at this time! His tone was completely different from usual, without a gentle and gentle smile - he immediately couldn't help but think of the man who talked to Secretary Li when Li Tairan was kidnapped! His tone was exactly the same as it was then.

Wang Ren tried his best to control the calmness of his voice: "What about Zou Yun? He laughed: "I want to go to him, I want to ask him if he is free?" ”

Zou Cheng's voice was a little cold: "He is not free, don't come over recently, my father is sick, Yunzi is not in good health, I am tired these days, and I am resting." ”

Wang Ren's pupils widened slightly: "Really?" Say hello to Lingtang for me, is it convenient for Zou Yun to answer the phone? Is Zou Jin here? ”

"Zou Jin?" Zou Cheng's voice suddenly raised with questioning: "Who is this?" ”

Wang Ren was stunned, this person, Zou Cheng didn't know? He replied: "It's nothing, I said it wrong, is it convenient for Zou Yun to answer the phone?" ”

Zou Cheng's voice was a little deep: "Yunzi has already slept, and the mobile phone has radiation, Yunzi is not in good health and can't answer it." ”

As he spoke, he hung up the phone.

Wang Ren's breath was suffocated, and he suddenly had a bad premonition, and his mind became confused.

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he couldn't remember who to turn to at this time, but he thought to himself, the matter over there in the research institute could not be delayed! While no one notices what he's found, he's got to find some evidence!

He immediately took a taxi to the research institute, he stood at the door of the research institute, it was half past four in the afternoon, the sun of this hour could not shine into the research institute, and the light was blocked by the building behind it, and he faintly felt that the whole building was suddenly gloomy!

Wang Ren has resigned, but the doorman still knows him, and he goes to talk to people kindly, but the doorman doesn't pay much attention to him.

Even if you do it, you can't get in, you have to have a card.

He pondered how to get in, and now there were too many people to make any big moves. He thought about it, but he still had to come over in the evening. He turned and took a step when he heard his name being called.

"Wang Ren?"

Wang Ren's eyes widened slightly, and he turned his head to smile: "Teacher Zhang, long time no see." ”

Teacher Zhang was walking out of the research institute, he was followed by two police inspectors, he signaled to the two police officers, and came to talk to Wang Ren.

"What are you doing here?" Teacher Zhang stared at Wang Ren with a bit of wisdom in his eyes.

Wang Renwen replied, "I'm here to wait for you." ”

Zhang Lao: "Wait for me?" What's up? ”

"Didn't you say that if you don't understand something, I can ask you? I've been researching a real yàn lately, and I don't understand it very well, so I want you to give me some advice, if it's convenient, can you go with me? Not far away, right at the school. Wang Ren spoke very sincerely, as if he had asked for advice with an open heart.

Zhang Lao's face softened slightly: "I can't go recently, the research institute has something to deal with." ”

Wang Ren glanced at the two police officers who had been waiting, and was curious: "What's the matter?" Is it strict? ”

Zhang Lao looked at Wang Ren for a moment, without any expression, but his tone was a little soft: "Don't come here recently, there are a few people in the research institute who are missing, and-" He looked sideways at the building of the research institute, and his eyes reflected a fine light: "It's been a long time, as if there is some danger brewing-"

Wang Ren was stunned, Zhang Lao stood straight, his face was not gentle, but he felt a kind of ingenuity normalcy that had been precipitated for many years, Wang Ren's heart moved slightly, and grabbed Zhang Lao's arm: "Teacher, you too, pay attention to safety." ”

Zhang Lao was moved, showing a hint of a smile: "I'm an old bone, all the winds and waves have come, don't scare yourself, children-"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Ren's mobile phone suddenly rang! Wang Ren's bell was not loud and vibrating, but it suddenly startled him!

His hand shook involuntarily, as if he sensed something, and his heart panicked.

"Hello?" He picked up the phone, and even he himself could hear a little uneasy.

"Wang Ren!" Old Chen's anxious voice came: "Something's wrong!" Something happened to Ling Xiao! You're in the special department! ”

When he arrived at the special department, he felt that the guard was a little more careful than usual, and the clock at the door pointed to five twenty.

He strode and walked in the long corridor with incandescent lights, closed left and right, the space was stuffy, the white light seemed to make people dizzy, and his breathing was suppressed.

When they walked to the approaching hall, there were gradually more people, they were wearing neat uniforms, standing straight, the logo of the special department was so dazzling that it made people's eyes hurt, and they all looked at Wang Ren, like a weird puppet, the only pair of eyes were moving with people alive, so weird that people wanted to go crazy!

Wang Ren's heart was beating fast, he listened to the guidance of unknown people, strode forward, his face looked pale and calm, his eyes looked straight ahead, as if he was fearless!

But his heart felt something instinctively, and kept shouting: Stop! Don't go any further! Turn around and run!

He didn't stop.

It's like the gears of history constantly running, running over different trajectories, constantly twisting, mischievous and teaseful of ignorant and fearless human beings who think they have escaped their fate, making people let down their vigilance, thinking that there are no ups and downs, and they have escaped the catastrophe, but suddenly! The big hand of fate tossed the gears over, and suddenly the disaster was put down, and the dazed, ant-like, solitary human beings were overwhelmed.

In the open cell, the high window shed a dazzling white light, and the people inside staggered and walked mechanically against the light, and the sound of boots hitting the ground became extremely strange, like a broken toy making a chilling sound, and the backlit face finally reflected in his eyes.

For a moment, it was like blurring the past and present lives, and the time and years of the two lives were constantly entangled and intertwined in the operation of the annual rings, exactly the same scene, the monster came step by step, with sharp canine teeth and dark eyes, like an inescapable god of death, with a murderous roar, holding a scythe, about to harvest human life-

It's just that in this life, I finally saw my face clearly-

That monster is Ling Xiao.
