Click...... Bang –

The flames burned, the circuits crackled, and his vision was blurry as he climbed out of the overturned car.

At night, in the park by the river, the dense lights of the city flickered like firelight on the opposite side, like a huge city floating on the water. The prosperity contrasts with the remoteness and solitude of the park, which he presided over more than a decade ago.

"It's a failed development......"

The wind blew, he sighed, staggered towards the blurred water, the car behind suddenly heard a huge explosion, the flames rose, the heat wave swept from behind, as if to drown him, the sound of a helicopter came from the sky, followed by a bright pillar of light that brightened the vision, someone shouted in the sky, the chasing vehicles on both sides of the park had also arrived, most of them were police cars, all kinds of lights, chaotic.

His head was still groggy, and blood was running down his forehead, and he reached out to wipe it, tightening his trench coat, and on both sides of the river, hovercraft and speedboats swarmed to prevent him from jumping into the water and escaping.

"Really...... I'm not a killer......"

All around, the dense encirclement of sea, land and air made him feel a little bored, his vision was not clear, and he knew in his heart that there might not be much chance of luck this time, the cold wind blew, and what he remembered in his mind were some inconsequential things. This is the city he grew up in, at that time the city was not so good, standing on the riverbank, you can't see the whole city as brilliant as the palace-like prosperous scene, but it feels warm, the riverbank is also full of dirt slopes, a loess path, when I go to school from home, I often ride a bicycle from here, with a few friends.

"I'm going to build a park here, make it more beautiful, and make the city full of high-rise buildings, and we all live in it......"

At that time, I was still young, and after going to a prosperous provincial capital, I made this ambition. What a high-spirited age, in the next twenty or thirty years, he was like a primitive man who had just invented the stone knife and stone axe, with amazing courage to forge ahead, overcoming countless thrilling difficulties unimaginable to others, and establishing one of the largest financial empires in the world.

In the eyes of others, he is already a financial giant who will not be defeated at all, and he himself thinks so, but when he returns to his hometown at this moment, he gradually understands that this park has failed after all.

It was meant to make everyone happy......

The failed development project is not irremedial later, as long as a lot of money is invested - for him now, this amount of money is nothing - but what has not been done for Lang? When I still wanted to do it, it was because I didn't have enough money, and now, I deliberately bypassed it because it was not profitable. Now that I think about it, many things I thought I remembered, but in fact I forgot them, and many things I thought I had forgotten, but in fact I remembered them......

Those friends and partners at the beginning, the expectations and wishes that wanted to make the world a better place, the road they had traveled. He sat down on the stone bench on the embankment, the light was dazzling, his mind was complicated, he reached out and touched the pocket on his body a few times, at this time, he really needed a cigarette, although he had quit for a long time......

Someone handed over the cigarette.

The man was standing next to him in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses, but he didn't need to look up to know that it was him. He took the cigarette, and the man with the gold-wire glasses took out a lighter, shielded it from the wind with his hand, and lit it for him.

"I remembered the past, we rode bicycles together to school from here, you, me, Qingyi, Akang, Ruoping...... Qingyi died two years ago, and I couldn't attend his funeral......" He took a puff of cigarette, and when he spit it out, the cold wind immediately blew it away, "How is Ruoping?" ”

"I have two children, and I'm doing well." The bespectacled man sat down.

"Ah...... You told me, I almost forgot ......" he thought for a moment, then laughed, "She's the prettiest among girls, I remember that I always had a crush on her and didn't dare to confess it." ”

The man next to him was silent for a while, then took out a lighter and lit a cigarette: "I know that you like her, and I confessed to her before you, but I was rejected...... She says it's you who she likes. ”

"I haven't heard you talk about this......"

"What else, then they are all working hard for the future, you have forgotten her, she can't always wait for you, you don't confess, she will get married." "yes, I missed a lot of things......"

"You've always strived for perfection."

"You know the way, right? When you get to the apex......" he thought for a moment and raised his hand to gesture to a height, "When you get to the apex, you will find that there is nothing but a moment of accomplishment, and you will always feel ...... Regretful...... The path I am taking now may not be the ...... I wanted to get at the beginning."

"yes." Said the man with glasses.

After being silent for a while, he looked at the cigarette in his hand, which was already very short: "The deficit of more than 10 billion will be very troublesome to deal with, I knew it a few months ago, and I have made a plan, which is in my computer...... It's just that I didn't think that your reaction would be so intense, the company has changed the dynasty, and it is indeed possible to transfer the deficit to some people's heads, which is much easier, you make some modifications to the plan, try not to affect too many people, after all, everyone has been working together for so long. ”

“…… I. The man next to him hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to explain something, but after all, he just said, "I'm sorry." ”

"It's nothing, let's go so far, I'm always standing in front, brother, it's time for you to try...... This bureau is very well set up, the company gives it to you, but it can't be, it's just ...... In the future, I will take some money and really develop this side of the park, I have always wanted to do it, I have always thought that I remember, but when I think about it, I feel that I am not in a hurry, and it is always delayed......"

"I told them that you can still live well after this incident......"

"Chop the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, let the tiger return to the mountain......" He turned his head, with a kind of sternness in his calm eyes, "What do you think you are?" ”

"As long as I live, I can threaten you!" He paused, threw the cigarette butt to the ground and stepped on it, "It's cold in the heights, it's enough to come this far in this life, even if I have to do it all over again, I want to do it all over again, clean and clean, those messy and dirty things, intrigue...... If only I could do it again......"

He smiled and stood up: "If I could do it again, I think I would confess to her......"

The helicopter hovered in the sky, the boats on the water were speeding forward, the park was surrounded by vehicles, and on the embankment where the lights were focused, the man who stood up suddenly pulled out his gun and aimed it at the man with glasses next to him, and witnessing his movements, the man with glasses also stood up at the same time, raised his hand, and waved at the people around him: "Don't shoot-"

The gunshots rang out intensively, and blood bloomed behind him, and it took a long time before he turned around, looked at the corpse lying in a pool of blood, took off his glasses in a daze, wiped them a few times, and then put them back on and picked up the gun held in the corpse's hand.

"Said don't shoot...... There are no bullets......"

In the night wind, he murmured.
