When she opened her eyes in reality, she was greeted by the dazzling sunlight at noon, and the cold that almost froze her because she forgot to turn on the air conditioner.

Shivering and taking off the helmet on his head, Yichen felt that his hands were colder than the helmet. Unplugging the bolt from his helmet, Yichen got up from the bed, found himself two or three coats from the closet, and wrapped them layer by layer.

There's no movement outside, so it looks like those two haven't woken up yet, right? Anyway, she doesn't have much to do now, so she might as well go and see the pathology that will be talked about at the beginning of next semester.

Yichen tiptoed into the living room, pulled the thick analytic pathology book from the shelf, and tiptoed to the table to put the book down. In fact, she also knew that she was a little nervous, and it was impossible for a person wearing a helmet to hear the outside world, but he was used to living alone, and he was still a little unaccustomed to the sudden arrival of two people in the house.

After being immersed in the world of books for an unknown amount of time, the table was slammed, startling Yichen.

"I'm going to die!" Yichen closed the book, quickly smoothed his chest, and comforted the little heart that was shocked just now, "If I am scared out of a heart attack, I will definitely extort a compensation from you." ”

Louis pouted, "I'm correcting a psychopath, Miss!" It's a great winter vacation, and you're reading a book here? Tynyima's spoiled scenery. ”

"Let's play." Yichen looked up at the wall clock on the wall, "It's almost a little faster・・・・・・ local tyrant, do you want to go out to eat or?" ”

"Let's go out and eat." The local tyrant took out his credit card from his backpack and put it in his pocket, "When you cook dinner, you don't know the Year of the Monkey." ”

・・・・・・Is this discrimination against Chiguoguo?

"Ah, by the way, we have only been at the hotel for one day this time, so it's okay to stay in your nest for a few days, right?" Louis had already walked to the door, and suddenly turned his head and asked.

"Of course, you are very welcome・・・・・・ but please tell me clearly and precisely・・・・・・ the word 'nest' means a ball of yarn!!"

It's too bad! There is simply no discipline! Although I am a little small here, I am also a sparrow, although it is small, and I have all kinds of organs! Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one kitchen and one living room, what a warm and homely little apartment!

Seeing that Yichen looked like a puffed out of the air, the local tyrant looked calm, raised his hand and slapped Louis on the head fiercely, in exchange for someone's miserable scream and an ice cream ball on his head, "Then please, accompany us to the hotel to check out later." ”

"Uh-huh." Yichen locked the door of the apartment and walked towards the nearby commercial street with the local tyrants, "Why did you only book a hotel for one day?" ”

"It's not this joke yet, I have to fly back the night after buying the helmet." The local tyrant glanced fiercely at someone who was still holding his head and wailing, "I just received an email that there is a heavy snowstorm in our state tonight, and it will last for several days, and the flight has been canceled." ”

"Hmm, it's really tangled." Yichen nodded, the local tyrant is the northernmost state in the United States, and the blizzard that lasts for a few days is nothing new, "Then let's find a place to eat first, and then you go buy two changes of clothes and daily necessities." Since you're here, I'll just stay until the end of the winter vacation and go back. ”

"Let's eat this!" Louis points to the Burger Emperor on the left. Burger King's burgers are notoriously delicious! The price is cheap and the quantity is big, definitely the best choice when you are away from home!

"No, no." The local tyrant shook his head firmly, "Fly all the way to Greentown and eat a hamburger with a ball of yarn." ”

"Well, that makes sense." So change to the right, "How about this, how about this?" ”

"I remember this was a Mexican restaurant, right?" Yichen looked at the restaurant's very non-mainstream signboard for a long time, but still shook his head, "No, Mexican rice is the most unpalatable." ”

"You two are really hard to serve!" Louis pointed to Madeji not far ahead, "Why don't you just go eat Madeji!" ”

"Chicken is all fried and unhealthy." The local tyrant shook his head, expressing in a very subtle and arrogant way that he didn't want to walk into the non-flashy storefront of Medji.

"・・・・・・ when did you become so particular?" Louis thought he was going crazy, "Subway, this is healthy enough, isn't it?" ”

", Subway's sandwich looks like Sho, and the bread is as bad as in the game." Yichen frowned. I hate sandwiches or something・・・・・・ you know, I used to eat sandwiches every day when I went to middle school! Every noon from Monday to Friday, she ate it over and over again for three years・・・・・・ and now her stomach starts churning at the mention of sandwiches.

"・・・・・・ Nima! I'm fed up with you two living Buddhas! Louis was on the verge of going berserk, "Where are you going?!" ”

"I don't know." The local tyrant shook his head tuggingly.

"I'll do whatever it takes." Yichen spread his hands nonchalantly.

・・・・・・ Louis stared at the cloudless sunny sky with teary eyes, and now he just wanted to shout to the sky!

O God! Please give me a sharp manure fork! I'm going to stab these two guys to death!

The three of them just walked down the street in a small fight, and in the end they still didn't decide what to eat.

"I said you two don't rub it off, okay! It's almost half past one! Brother still wants to go back to leveling up early! Louis finally turned on the furious mode in frenzy, his sharp gaze sweeping around the shops like a detector, and then he pointed in surprise, "That's it!" Chinese food, no problem this time, right? ”

What? Chinese? Yichen blinked, she had been here for several years, and she had never known that there was such a Chinese restaurant in Greentown. The restaurant is so small that even the glass doors outside are slightly yellowed, and the crumbling sign reads "XIAOWUCHINESERESTARUANT". Such a simple small Chinese restaurant is mixed in with many small shops, probably because she really missed it.

"Well, I'm okay with that." Yichen waved her hand, it was rare to have a shop that she had never paid attention to, just to try it.

The local tyrant looked at the small shop's somewhat shabby signboard, and still twisted it for a while, but in the end he still didn't resist the temptation of Chinese food, "Okay, then let's go in and have a look." ”

Yichen gently pushed open the oil-stained glass door of the small restaurant, and when he walked in, he suddenly understood why this store was so cold. There wasn't a single guest at all! Although it is past the time to eat, it is still noon, and it is not the time when business is busy. And this shabby, old little restaurant, there is not a single customer・・・・・・ and not even a single clerk who comes out to greet them.

"What kind of bird place is this, let's go, go eat Madki." The local tyrant was already very disgusted with this kind of dirty and dilapidated shop, but now there is not even a clerk here, and there is no interest left at all.

Louis looked at the menu on the wall with interest, "Yichen, this menu seems to be all Jianghang cuisine from your hometown!" The owner of this shop may also be from Jianghang! ”

Jiang Hang ・・・・・・ a trace of pain crossed Yichen's eyes, but he smiled as if he didn't care, "Don't talk about it, sister, I'm from the imperial capital, and I have always been." ”

Hearing Yichen say this, Louis looked at her in some surprise and found that she was looking at the menu on the wall intently, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Are you two going or not?" The local tyrant urged, "This store may not be open at all today, and it is useless for us to stand here." ”

"No, this store must be open today." Louis casually pointed to the brand-new wall calendar hanging on the other wall, "You see, today is the New Year, and the owner of this store has hung up the calendar, and has drawn a red circle on the first of January, indicating that this store must be open today." ”

"When did you start reasoning?" The local tyrant rolled his eyes, "Sherlock or Conan?" ”

Louis shook his index finger when he heard two such lofty names, "I just like to play 'Let's find faults'." ”

"・・・・・・ "Get out of the way and play with the spoon!"

"Yichen, what are you doing?" Seeing that Yichen was walking towards the kitchen in the restaurant with his hands behind his back, the local tyrant hurriedly asked.

"Let's visit the owner of the restaurant." Yichen turned around, "I think Louis's reasoning is quite reasonable, the owner of the restaurant should be inside, so let's go in and say hello." Even if I'm not there, no one will notice me if I go for a walk. ”

Well・・・・・・ no one says it's illegal for customers to go backstage in a restaurant・・・・・・

The local tyrant pointed at Louis, "Then you two go in, I'll take care of the wind here." "He doesn't want to go near the kitchen of such a dirty and messy shop, and there may be cockroaches and rats and the like・・・・・・ which makes him disgusting to think about.

How do you say that they look like thieves?・・・・・・ Or is it a very orderly group crime?

Pushing open the heavy door of the kitchen, the soft light came into view along with the pots and pans in the room, and the placement of everything made Yichen feel unexpectedly familiar ・・・・・・.

However, when I turned the perspective, there was a person leaning on the stove in the far corner・・・・・・

It was a scrawny man. Jason was the skinniest boy Yichen had ever seen, but he could still make out a little muscle outline. But this man ・・・・・・ a skeleton! The wide skeleton can support the dirty and torn gray sweater, judging from the bones of this man, he should not be such a figure・・・・・・ is it because the business in the store is not good, and he is hungry for this virtue? No・・・・・・ wouldn't it?

"Isn't this man ・・・・・・ dead?" Louis pulled out his phone, "Why don't I call an ambulance." ”

"Let me see him first." For some reason, Yichen always felt an inexplicable familiarity with him・・・・・・ even if he was so skinny, even in the dim light, he couldn't even see his lowered face.

Seeing Yichen walking towards the man step by step, Louis put his phone back in his pocket and followed. Although this person seems to be dying・・・・・・ doesn't this kind of thing suddenly jump up in horror movies?

Finally came to the front of the man, but the man didn't look up as if he didn't seem to be aware of it, probably unconscious.

As soon as Yichen squatted down, a sour smell came to his nose. She covered her nose with some discomfort, how long has this guy not showered? She reached out and gently lifted the man's head.

What a hot temperature! Even his chin is so hot, I don't know how long he has been feverish like this. Just staying here alone, doesn't he know how to go to the hospital?

"He had a high fever." Yichen turned to Louis and said, "Let's call an ambulance, really, I don't know how long it's been burning like this, maybe my brain is burned out." ”

"Well, I'll fight it." Louis made an OK gesture and began dialing 911.

Yichen turned his face and turned the man's face slightly・・・・・・

What caught his eye was a fairly handsome young face, but his brows were furrowed because of the high fever, and his face was extremely pale. Perhaps because he was too thin, the young man's cheekbones were extremely prominent, but this face still coincided with the person in his memory・・・・・・

"Wu Feng・・・・・・ why ・・・・・・ be you?"

There are many things that cannot be forgotten, there is no escape, and many pasts cannot be shaken off or abandoned.

Outside the emergency ward No. 3 of Greentown Central Hospital.

"Doctor, what the hell is wrong with her?" Louis asked, somewhat helplessly.

Ever since Yichen saw the man's face just now, the whole person seemed to be crazy, as if he was afraid of something, he hid in the corner and cried all the time, no matter what he and the local tyrant said, he didn't respond. When the ambulance came, she saw the doctors and nurses in white coats who were so frightened that they all shrank into a ball, and finally the nurse had no choice but to give her a tranquilizer and take her back to the hospital for inspection.

The local tyrant was also a little apprehensive, he had never seen Yichen's hysterical appearance just now・・・・・・ could it be that man that made her so scared?

"According to the initial diagnosis, the patient should have PTSD, but we are not completely sure yet, and we will need to wait until she wakes up to confirm further." The doctor opened the door to the ward, and Tuhao and Louis hurriedly followed him, "Who are you patients?" ”

"Friends." Tuhao looked at the person lying on the hospital bed in front of him, completely different from his usual energetic appearance, his pale cheeks under the oxygen mask were bloodless, and his long black hair was weakly spread out like seaweed, as if he was going to leave at any time.

"What is PTSD? A disease? Louis asked, a little apprehensively, it can't be cancer, right? It's usually fine, but it's clear that I suddenly saw that man and became like this・・・・・・

The doctor pointed to a machine that showed a lot of linear ripples, "This is a mental illness, to be precise, it is caused by the patient experiencing great trauma or witnessing the trauma of others and being mentally stimulated. According to our observations, this patient should have avoidant PTSD, a type of selective amnesia, and there is a high chance that the patient may not remember what happened when he or she wakes up. At present, the patient's body does not have any problems, but her heartbeat, blood pressure, and blood oxygen levels are slowly decreasing, which is probably due to the mental side effects caused by PTSD. ”

"Is it going to go down like this?" The local tyrant hurriedly asked. Just kidding, if the heart rate and blood pressure drop too low, won't the person die?

"It shouldn't be that serious, we have injected her with medication just now, and now this patient's condition has stabilized. Just be careful not to irritate her again, and take some antidepressant medication every day will help to reduce the condition. The doctor was instructing Tuhao and Louis about precautions when a nurse walked in from outside and knocked on the door, "Dr. Ross, the patient in Emergency Ward 2 has regained consciousness." ”

"Doctor, can we go see him?" Louis had a stomach full of questions to ask right now, and it was just in time for that guy to wake up.

The doctor groaned for a moment and nodded, "He has a high fever caused by his weakness and wound infection, don't talk to him for too long." ”

"Thank you, doctor." The tyrant bowed to the doctor as a courtesy, and then walked out of the emergency room three with Louis.

"Alas, what an uneasy fellow." In the corridor of the hospital, the local tyrant sighed heavily. I'm almost hungry, but now I'm in no mood to eat because of someone's sudden situation.

"Tuhao, wait a while and then go in." They had already arrived at the door of the second emergency ward, and Louis suddenly pulled the local tyrant's sleeve.

"What's wrong?" The local tyrant asked angrily, "Don't you want to interrogate that guy what's going on?" ”

"No, of course the trial will be tried, if he doesn't say it, he will have to be tortured." Louis nodded indignantly, but soon the expression on his face changed to a hint of worry, "But have you thought about it, after Yichen wakes up, he won't remember anything about this person・・・・・・ so is there any need for us to keep him here?" ”

"・・・・・・" The local tyrant frowned, and after some hesitation, he still shook his head disapprovingly, "I understand what you mean, but she should have the right to know about her own affairs." ”

"Absolutely." Louis nodded, "But you also saw the way she just looked, and if you let her see that person again・・・・・・ you promise not to do it again?" ”

"・・・・・・ let's take a look at that person first, if it doesn't work, let him roll up and leave." Tuhao waved his hand and opened the door of the second emergency ward.

Hearing a "click-" door, the person leaning on the bed slowly turned his head.

He was as thin as a skeleton, his withered skeleton barely holding up a loose hospital gown, as if the wind could blow him down. Although his pale face was slightly better after the infusion, the prominent cheekbones and unusually obvious facial contours were still a little scary.

"You ・・・・・・ saved me?" There are some hoarse voices, and it is not difficult to hear the Jianghang accent in them.

Tuhao and Louis glanced at each other, and sure enough, they were from Jianghang.

"Saving you is just by the way. We're just curious to wake you up・・・・・・ what is your relationship with Yichen? Louis stared carefully at every expression on the thin man's face, but to his surprise, in addition to shock, the skeleton's originally dull eyes instantly burned with surprise and hope.

"Yichen・・・・・・ do you know her? You know her・・・・・・ she's here, isn't she? She's here, isn't she?! The thin man could no longer care about the various thick and thin tubes inserted in his arm, but struggled to get up, "Take me to her!" I must see her! ”

Seeing this skinny ghost-like person struggling desperately there, Tuhao rubbed his temples with a headache, "Don't waste your efforts, brother・・・・・・ save your virtue, if you don't raise it for ten days and half a month, you can't even get out of bed, so give up." ”

"Nope! No! How can I give up ・・・・・・ Xiao Zhuo・・・・・・ Xiao Zhuo is still in the hands of those people! I can't ・・・・・・ can't just give up・・・・・・"

Xiao Zhuo? Feeling that things seemed to have reached the critical point, Louis hurriedly received, "We are all Yichen's best friends, I have to say that the reason why you sent a stranger here today is because you directly caused Yichen to receive serious mental stimulation, and she is still in a coma in the ward." ”

"I ・・・・・・"

"Until we get to the bottom of what happened, you're just the perpetrator of the coma that caused our friend to fall into a coma, don't think about going anywhere." Knowing what he wanted to say, the local tyrant interrupted him cleanly and crisply, sealing his back road to death.

"Well, I'll tell you everything." The man finally compromised, but he was silent for a long time, as if he was struggling with something, and then spoke up again for a long time, "My name is Wu Feng, from the Wu clan in Jianghang, and there is a younger brother and a younger sister under me, Wu Zhuo and Wu Li. ”

"The Xiao Zhuo you just said is Wu Zhuo?" Louis nodded in understanding, "Who took Wu Zhuo away?" ”

"I don'・・・・・・ I don't know." Speaking of those who captured Wu Zhuo, Wu Feng's hand clenched the sheet, but he was weak and couldn't exert much strength at all, "Not only Xiao Zhuo・・・・・・ the entire Wu clan has been taken away!" We were both imprisoned and locked up in different places・・・・・・ I tried a lot of effort to grab their boat, trying to go back to save Xiao Zhuo, but I encountered a wave ・・・・・・ was swept into the sea, and I drifted at sea for more than a month before I came here. ”

"・・・・・・." Louis twitched the corners of his mouth and gave Wu Feng a thumbs up, he was already admiring this buddy. After drifting at sea for more than a month・・・・・・ no wonder he has lost weight into this ghostly virtue! If he had been replaced, he would have knelt a long time ago, this is not in the game, and he can be resurrected if he is resurrected.

"So you're smuggled here?" The local tyrant frowned, and he quickly realized the loophole in it, "It's unlikely, it's impossible to open a store without a certificate." ”

"Of course it can't be, I don't dare to use it even if I have a certificate." Wu Feng shook his head, "That 'Xiao Wu Restaurant' was originally a restaurant that was about to close down, and I bought it with the money I brought down from the ship at that time, because the owner is also a Chinese, so this restaurant is still in his name, I just bought the right to use it, and I didn't use the certificate." ”

"Why don't you dare to use it if you have a certificate? Could it be that domestic criminal gangs will still come abroad? Louis waved his hand, "Actually, I just wanted to say that since it is related to a criminal gang, it is useless for you to find Yichen!" She's a college student and she's not an Interpol. ”

"No, it's not as simple as you think." Wu Feng looked away, and was silent for a long time, "When they arrested us, I can be sure that they were rummaging through the cabinets in our house to find something・・・・・・ not money, at that time they almost smashed everything they could, but when they entered the study, they opened every book, searched carefully, and even completely disassembled every computer to search carefully・・・・・・ after searching all over the place to no avail, they took Xiao Zhuo first." And I'm talking about them, they're a bunch of blonde foreigners, and if I didn't mispronounce the accent, they would still be Americans. ”

Ha? A group of robbers rushed into people's homes and didn't rob money, but flipped through books and dismantled computers? This is too ・・・・・・ unbelievable!

"Why did they take Wu Zhuo in the first place? Does Wu Zhuo represent any special place in your family? The local tyrant asked. Now it seems that the key to uncovering the whole incident lies in Wu Zhuo.

Wu Feng nodded, "Xiao Zhuo has been very smart since he was a child, he studied university courses on his own at the age of thirteen, and he is very proficient in computer things, and he is also the next patriarch of the Wu clan. ”

"Hey~ This thing is strange." Louis lifted his chin and looked thoughtful, "Your witch clan is not a very big clan, is it?" I haven't even heard of the local tyrants, at most they are just well-known in the Jianghang area. According to you, how did these foreigners know that they were the first to take this young patriarch when they arrived at your house? Could it be that someone else has colluded with them? ”

"This ・・・・・・" Wu Feng's face changed when he heard Louis's words, "It's impossible・・・・・・ all the clansmen were tied up in one place that day・・・・・・ I was also present." Most of the Wu tribe were women and children, old and young, and they were so frightened that they couldn't speak that day, and no one dared to speak at all. Moreover, after those Americans checked all the computers, they went straight to Xiao Zhuo・・・・・・ without stopping at all. ”

"I'm not saying it's necessarily not a coincidence, I'm just trying to tell you to prepare for the worst." Louis shrugged, "So what are you going to do now?" Even if you tell Yichen about this and tell us, no one will be able to help you! ”

"I'll save him myself・・・・・・" Wu Feng closed his eyes tremblingly, and opened them fiercely, "I have seen a uniform symbol on the collar of those people's uniforms・・・・・・ as long as you can help me find out the origin of this symbol, I will solve it myself." Even if it's ・・・・・・ even if it's a bloody way, I want to rescue Xiao Zhuo! ”

Tuhao and Louis looked at the crimson light in Wu Feng's eyes, and unconsciously shivered at the same time. This guy ・・・・・・ so murderous・・・・・・

"Okay, as long as you draw the sign, I'll find a way for you." The local tyrant nodded, which was regarded as a promise to him. The big deal is to use the power of the Wei family, and it is not difficult to find the source of the logo.

"You still have the strength to write, do you?" Louis looked at his skinny hands and half-believingly handed him the sticky notes and ballpoint pen on the bedside table.

Wu Feng nodded, holding the pen weakly, and sketched the figure that he had deeply engraved in his mind on the sticky note paper one by one. Seventy days and nights of wandering on the sea, when he was accompanied by the boundless waves and loneliness, when he had eaten all the food but still did not see the shore, when the last drop of fresh water disappeared・・・・・・ this pattern was the only clear direction in his mind!

"Please." He handed the finished drawings to the local tyrant.

The local tyrant took the sticky note. The sticky note paper shows a six-pointed star, and in the center of the six-pointed star there is a curved crescent.

"How do I think I've seen this sign somewhere?" The tyrant handed Louis the sticky note and began to fall into deep thought.

As soon as Louis started the pattern, he felt a very kind feeling, "Huh? I think it's familiar, too. ”

・・・・・・

"Youlian?!"

"Youlian ???"

There was a complete dead silence in the room.
