Chapter 25: Lin Zhou.
Lin Hai was bored in the ward, and even if he went to the bathroom now, there would still be people by his side. It made him feel very unnatural.
It was the last day of December, and Lin Hai saw a thick fog from the window, obviously it was only on the third floor, but Lin Hai couldn't see the ground clearly. It's vague, and the world turns gray as a result. At this time, someone suddenly said to him, Section Chief Zhumu agreed that your family came to see you, and now he is at the door.
Lin Hai thought it was Tang Yin or a wandering spirit, and he had even raised the corners of his mouth, but the person who pushed the door in was Zhou Mu.
Lin Hai was excited, gritted his teeth and struggled to sit up from the bed. This action caused the gauze he had just changed to become bloodied again. His wounds were torn a little more.
Zhou Mu walked to the side of the bed, pulled out a chair and sat down. He looked at the cigarette next to Lin Hai's pillow, and he said to him, smoke less when he is sick. Lin Hai didn't mean to appreciate it at all, he asked, Zhou Mu, what do you want to do.
The latter ignored him, took the unopened box of cigarettes, took one out, put it in his mouth, and lit it. He said that there was a lot of fog outside, and there was no "fog" here in Lin Hai, and he was very unaccustomed to it.
There was a contradiction in his words, he advised Lin Hai not to smoke, but he himself lit it in a grand manner. But neither of them brought it up. One stares warily at the other, the other leisurely smokes a cigarette. This strange silence and the visits between "family" made Lin Hai even more unable to relax. He thought of countless possibilities in his heart, but Zhou Mu was unexpected.
It can be said that Zhou Mu's existence was an unexpected one for him.
Zhou Mu smoked a whole box of cigarettes, and at the end, he looked at the room shrouded in smoke, and said in a low voice, Now the big one is the same as the small one. Lin Hai, I'm Lin Zhou.
Seven days later, on the day of Xiaohan, I will return to Chongqing. The duration of the mandate is two months.
Finally, Zhou Mu left Lin Hai's ward, not because he realized that he had bothered the patient, but because he thought he had said everything that needed to be said. Zhou Mu sat in Zhu Muya's car and looked at the burn scar on his hand, and then he looked up at the world outside the car window.
The car was bumpy on the road, Zhu Muya didn't ask what they talked about, he just said, Zhou Mu, you can go to Chongqing with peace of mind. Two months, I'll give you two months to assassinate Dai Li. You are both from the same school, and I hope you will be stronger than him.
Takekiya didn't tell him what would happen if he couldn't do it, but he knew what he thought, nothing more than putting Lin Hai to death.
At this time, Zhou Mu smiled and said, I will.
There was so much hidden in his smile that Takekiya only saw the pride in it.
When Lin Hai actually met the spirit and Tang Yin, it was the day after Zhou Mu's visit. His mind was full of what Zhou Mu said, and his dejected appearance startled Tang Yin. She hugged Lin Hai and asked him what was going on, Lin Hai wanted to clear his mind, but found that he couldn't speak.
After a stalemate like this, the geist handed him a glass of water. He drank it all in one gulp. Then he whispered that he only had two months to plot an escape from Shanghai. The geist was a little unclear, so she said, what about the mission?
Lin Hai laughed, he said, I'm going to die, the premise of doing the task is that I live.
The spirit was silent for a moment and then said, according to what you just said, if you want to live, you must leave Shanghai, so how to leave Shanghai.
Tang Yin looked at the Wandering Spirit and Lin Hai, she pursed her lips. In the days when Lin Hai was hospitalized, she didn't tell the spirit the truth that Lin Hai was not Zhou Mu.
Lin Hai confronted her for a few minutes, and it was Lin Hai who finally gave in. He said that I would leave Shanghai after getting the purge plan and list.
The geist smiled, and she seemed happy. She said, I knew that Zhou Mu would decide like this.
Lin Hai's body stiffened when he heard the word Zhou Mu, and this slight change was noticed by Tang Yin. She turned back to the spirit and said that Wen Jie was going to invite her to coffee this afternoon, and it was not too early now, so she wanted her to go back and prepare first.
So after glancing at Lin Hai, who seemed to be safe, the spirit said that it was great, and then left the ward.
Lin Hai looked at Tang Yin, he pondered for a long time, and finally he opened his mouth to ask her. He asked, do you know that Zhou Mu is Lin Zhou.
