In the police superintendent's office, Zhang Liu had already drunk many cups of coffee, and the floor was full of cigarette butts.

There were a lot of papers piled up on the messy desktop, and he hung two big black circles under his eyes, staring at the soft fluorescent screen in the office without the lights, and his face was extremely haggard by the single light.

And his dark eyes, who have not slept for so many days, are still shining.

Countless old files were once again looked at from his hands, and he reviewed the countless targets that had been suspected before in Wanyu City and even Diling Province, and all cases related to or unrelated to the World Destroyer were turned over by him and re-examined.

It has been four or five years since the Lord of World Destroyer appeared in Wanyu City, and he has done an unknown number of cases, and Zhang Liu has missed all of them in so many hundreds of cases, large and small.

Hu Dou made him another cup of coffee, and his face was extremely haggard, as his best brother, he had worked all night for so many days, Hu Dou was always by his side, even if he couldn't help too much.

"Don't get too tired, just take a break and start again. ”

Zhang Liu shook his head, switched pages, and said intently: "The more I review everything these days, the more I feel that the truth will come out quickly." ”

According to Zhang Liu's conjecture, they have not been able to lock the true identity of the World Destroyer for many years, and it is very likely that it is not because they can't find it, but because they have been misled by the World Destroyer. After a chance encounter with the World Destroyer, as well as the conversation during the pursuit, he realized more and more clearly that they were the people of Wanyu City, they were young people, but no one could hide their eyes in the city of Wanyu City, the only possibility was that he did not hide his eyes, but hid under his eyes in another way.

"Surprise surprise, the Lord of the World Destroyer likes the most to be surprised, so if we reverse our thinking and come back, we can find out the truth. ”

Hu Dou couldn't help but shake his head, he wanted him to rest, but he also knew his stubbornness, if his persuasion helped, Zhang Liu would not have worked until this time.

The pages of the computer suddenly stopped on a report.

Zhang Liu's gaze froze slightly, as if he had a premonition, his gaze couldn't help but stay a little longer, and after reading several investigation reports related to this case in a row, Zhang Liu's face couldn't help but become solemn.

"Hu Dou, do you remember this case? ”

This is an investigation, not an interrogation of a suspect, so it is not recorded in detail, and there are only a few specific cases, and many investigations of related people are like this, strictly speaking, this can be regarded as a dereliction of duty by the police, and Zhang Liu wants to listen to the parties more than the complicated text above.

"Which one?"

Hu Dou originally sat back in his place and took a nap, but when he heard this, he immediately walked over and stared at the screen, scratched his messy and greasy head, looked at the case record on it, fell into deep thought, and said after more than ten seconds: "I want to think about it...... Three years ago, the smuggling business of a batch of Xuanka took place in the Fengdu slum, and the transaction was made by a group of Xuanka smugglers from Flying Wolf and other provinces...... Oh, I remember, I remember it very clearly, because this case was technically one of the most frustrating cases we've had in the last few years. ”

Zhang Liu narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"When this case happened, the police inspector was still Brother Yun. Hu Dou said, "At that time, we had been eyeing this smuggling operation in advance, and we were about to close the net on the day of the transaction, but no one expected that the World Destroyer, who was still just 'emerging', appeared, robbed the batch of Xuanka and escaped from our pursuit.

Although the World Destroyer finally disappeared into the Void Ming Division, no one would think that the World Destroyer was really a person from the Void Ming Division, after all, if this was the case, the World Destroyer would be too stupid. The boy and a few others were among the most suspicious of us, but none of them had any problems, so they didn't write down the report in great detail. That's right, this is the first time that the World Destroyer has evaporated in our battle with the World Destroyer. ”

Zhang Liu looked at the black "color" on the report with the word "cold continuation", his face was expressionless, and he switched to the next report.

"Evaporation?" he muttered these two words, feeling that the truth seemed to be getting closer and closer to him, as if, and getting farther and farther away, "rubbing" and "rubbing" his eyes, and continued to review.

And Hu Dou, who was staring at the screen, suddenly shook his tired face, his wrinkled skin trembled, all the sleepiness was like dust on his hair, and his mind flashed back in mind about the case back then, as well as the unbelievable investigation experience of many cases, the world destroyer's ability to commit crimes beyond their imagination, and Zhang Liu's sentence "surprise" reincarnated endlessly in his mind.

A huge labyrinth in which they have walked for many years, there is a clear light in his mind that there is a correct path, and the reason why they can't get out is because they have taken the right path, and then they think they have taken the wrong path.

He suddenly thought of this possibility that was so bold that it made people sweat and "hair", and the three words "World Destroyer" trembled in his heart like leaves in the wind, but he didn't "show" his voice and "color", took a deep breath to steady his hands, and just patted Zhang Liu's back gently, "Rest early." Then he returned to his office, turned on the computer in a panic, and began to open one police document after another with his fingers trembling nervously, and began to check them non-stop.

Zhang Liu, who has only been in Wanyu City for a year, doesn't know a lot of previous things and needs to be sorted out slowly, but Hu Dou doesn't have such a problem, he watched the World Destroyer appear, watched the World Destroyer rampant, and watched the World Destroyer commit heinous crimes again and again and then escape from their pursuit.

It was precisely because he watched many things happen that he suddenly figured out that the smart Zhang Liu hadn't understood it for a while, let alone what he wanted to understand.

One specific case after another flickered in his computer, Hu Dou's face became more and more solemn, and a pair of eyes slowly drenched bloodshot more red than staying up late.

"I see, so. ”

......

......

"Congratulations, my brother Han Xu, today is July 28, your eighteenth birthday, today, your Wanyu City is the first place in the college entrance examination, that's right, the first place in the college entrance examination! Brother Wang Yanyan, who is the first in the college entrance examination, solemnly wishes you a happy eighteenth birthday.

From now on, you are an adult, you can have an improper relationship with a girl properly, you can enter the Internet café unscrupulously, you can comb your hair to look like an adult, but you can still sell cuteness and coquettishness to your brother Wangyan, you will always be a child who has not grown up in the eyes of your brother...... Ahh

Han Xu kicked him out of his room.

"The more I talk about it, the more disgusting it becomes. "Hanxu put on his clothes and went to the toilet to wash.

Today is the day when the results of the college entrance examination are released, and it happens to be Hanxu's eighteenth birthday.

Birthday, for him, is the only thing his parents left him besides life, so no matter how painful the day is, he has never forgotten this day every year.

And today, it's Coming-of-Age Day.

Eighteen years old, what a wonderful age, full of longing for the future, and the dream in his heart to compete with the whole world has only begun to take root today.

Wang Yanyan got up from the ground and gritted his teeth, "You are a beast, so I have to scold you for your eighteenth birthday, right?"

Han continued to brush his teeth and said: "On your eighteenth birthday, your aunt said to let you grow up, don't be so naïve all day long, it seems that you didn't listen to your aunt's words." ”

Wang Yan's eyes jumped up and shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, okay? Auntie hopes that I can always be happy, I told my aunt that I need a lot of money to be happy, so my aunt told me not to be so naïve, okay?"

Han Xu spit out the water and said angrily: "So you still think you are very mature?"

"How can I take care of you if I'm immature?

Han Xu hung up the "hair" towel that washed his face, pushed him open from the toilet door, walked out of the toilet and said: "Today is my eighteenth birthday, so it is okay for us to let me order it on the mouth of the first place in the high card outside Wanyu City?"

Hearing the words "first place", the anger on Wang Yanyan's face disappeared immediately, he clasped his hands, shook his legs, and said very happily: "Okay." ”

Han Xu looked at Liu Qianwen's reply on the phone curiously, and said with some loss: "I forgot to tell Liu Qianwen when we met the day before yesterday, every time we had a birthday, my aunt gave us a birthday, and I originally took this opportunity to take her to see my aunt, but I didn't expect that yesterday she said that she had something to do today and couldn't come. ”

Wang Yanyan scratched his head and said vaguely: "Maybe people are busy, after all, it's not normal to be more nervous when you want to see your parents, hahaha." ”

Han continued to sigh and nodded. The eighteenth birthday is a particularly meaningful day for everyone, and it is the same for Han Xu, especially because his parents are not alive, his emotions for his birthday are deeper than ordinary people, Liu Qianwen can't accompany this day, although he can understand it, but he still can't suppress the loss in his heart.

Wang Yanyan lowered his voice and leaned into his ear: "What about Bai Liuyi?"

Han Xu shook his head and said, "I told her last night that she couldn't be with us because she couldn't 'show up', and the friend between me and her is not the kind of friend who talks about everything, and she is not the kind of person who is good at talking, so ......"

"We went for a birthday, and she made cards in the basement?"

Han Xu nodded.

"This ......" Wang Yanyan didn't know what to say, but this kind of thing. It was a little awkward for them and Bai Liuyi to deal with it.

Han continued to help Wang Yanyan get the neckline right, and said, "The car is gone anyway, it's all walking, you go to your aunt first, I'll say a few words to her before leaving." ”

Wang Yanyan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go first." After saying that, he went downstairs and went out.

After seeing Wang Yanyan walk away, Han Xu did not go to the basement for the first time, but walked back to his bedroom, standing by the window with slightly heavy steps, this delicate face was exceptionally soft today, and then slowly revealed a sourness.

Even if you are familiar with each other, there will be times when you are unwilling to "show" your vulnerability in front of each other, Han Xu doesn't want people to see what she looks like now, and she doesn't want people to know how much she misses her deceased parents.

Han Xu exhaled. Raising his head to look at the sky, the corners of his mouth slowly hooked up a smile.

"Mom and Dad, today, I am an adult, that's right, I have grown up, eighteen years old, without your care, I still grew up. Last year, I told you that I was going to go to university, I was going to learn martial arts and Xuanka openly, and finally I wanted to change this world into a different world openly, so that the world that had suffered so much for you and me would be destroyed...... Today I'm very happy, I achieved last year's goal, am I amazing?

Mom and Dad, how many years have it been? In your memory, I am still the same as when I was a child, right? I think you must want me to live in peace, after all, you used to live in peace, but I just can't do it, I just want to overthrow the two federal dynasties, I just want the world to change. I know it's still a long way off, I may not be able to do it for the rest of my life, and I may die at the hands of my opponent before long...... However, if the child wants to try, the child is unwilling, so bless me. ”

Han continued to smile, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten.

He couldn't remember the sounds and faces of his parents, but they were the ones who would live in his heart forever.

Everyone has the softest place in their hearts, and his soft place is softer than what Wang Yanyan, who knows him best, understands.

He wiped his eyes, his nose was astringent, and went downstairs into the basement.

Bai Liuyi is really still making cards, when Han Xu met her, she seemed to be making cards forever, if she wasn't sure that she was a fresh person, Han Xu would have wondered if she was a tireless machine.

Han Xu walked to the desk, cleaned up the breakfast bowl, and said slowly: "We will go to my aunt's house at noon today, if you are hungry, just heat up the dishes in the cabinet. ”

Bai Liuyi didn't raise his head, and still said coldly: "Okay, thank you." ”

Han Xu didn't know what to say more, and thought for a while: "The results will be released today, although the news of admission will be released next month, but Diling University should be fine, if nothing happens, I will go to school there." ”

Bai Liuyi was suddenly slightly stunned, but just like the crimson that appeared on her face that night, it was fleeting, her scattered gaze refocused, her hand repeatedly rubbed the titanium pen, and said softly: "Got it, congratulations." ”

Han Xu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, can we keep in touch often in the future?"

Bai Liuyi was silent for a long moment and said, "Maybe." ”

Han Xu didn't know what this "maybe" meant, but since there was no veto, it was also happy news, and it was clear that everything was still early, and it was not yet time to mention the separation, so he began to say these things, and he always felt like he was hoping that people would leave, and he began to regret that he said such a sentence again.

"Then I'll go first and come back to bring you cake?"

Bai Liuyi said casually: "It's all right." ”

Han Xu nodded and left the basement with the bowl.

When he went out, Bai Liuyi suddenly raised his head and called him.

"Huh?"

She was silent for a moment and said slowly, "Happy birthday." ”

Han Xu was overflowing with joy in his heart, and smiled: "Thank you." ”

......

Listening to Han Xu close the door and leave, he was sure that there was one person in this house, and there was no need to hide his emotions, and Bai Liuyi's heart suddenly felt a heavy loss.

She is a person who is willing to face any emotion with softness, even if it is her father's emotion, she is also facing it with a cold attitude, and she is also unwilling to face this loss at this time, let alone know and wonder why she is lost.

My fingers kept grinding my cuffs, and I couldn't recover for a long time.
