After the hot compress, she had to soak her feet in medicinal water, Rong Li asked Xu Tanxi to go to sleep first, but she refused, and only went back to the room when he washed up and lay down on the bed.

Rong Li lay down at a few o'clock after eleven o'clock, and at about half past eleven, Xu Tanxi sent him WeChat, her work and rest have always been regular, if it was usual, she would have slept at this point.

Xu Tanxi: [Did you sleep? 】

Rong Li didn't sleep, and his leg hurt.

He replied: [Sleeping]

Xu Tanxi: [Does your leg still hurt? ] 】

He lied: [It doesn't hurt much]

Those kicks seemed to be too heavy, he hadn't hurt so much for a long time, his legs couldn't move, like needles pricking, there was a dense stinging sensation, and he couldn't tell which pain it was, like a fever in his bones.

In front of Xu Tanxi, he had to pretend to be fine, he couldn't frown, and he couldn't let her see it.

Rong Li: [It's nothing anymore, you go to sleep, I'm sleepy too]

After a while.

Xu Tanxi sent a message: [Good night]

Rong Lihui: [Good night]

He lay still, his back covered in sweat.

The lights were turned off, there was no sound at all at night, the windows in the room were nailed with wooden boards, the moonlight did not shine in, the eyes were dark, the people were groggy, I don't know how long it was, the mobile phone placed at the head of the bed suddenly turned on.

Rong Li glanced at it, and Xu Tanxi sent WeChat again.

She sent a system emoji: [Smile]

He replied quickly: "What's wrong? 】

Xu Tanxi did not reply.

He waited for a while before sending a message to ask her, "Are you asleep?" 】

There's still no reply, and it doesn't show that you're typing.

Rong Li thought she was asleep.

【Good night】

He glanced at his phone, and it was nearly twelve o'clock.

He was sweating, lifted the quilt, lay flat on the bed, held the mobile phone and put it directly above, he clicked on Xu Tanxi's avatar and looked at it like that.

Her avatar was changed by him, he kissed her photo, the screen lit up for a while, then dimmed, he pressed it again, then darkened, and then pressed it again, and so on and so on, over and over again.

Before going to bed, he took sleeping pills, but it didn't work, his legs hurt too much, and his nerves didn't let him rest for a moment.

It's been a long time...... For a long time.

Rong Li sat up suddenly, he heard the sound of the door opening outside, reached under the pillow, and felt the handle of the dagger.

Knock, knock, knock.

There was a knock on the door three times, and the person outside the door called, "Sir." ”

It's his little lady.

Rong Li put the dagger back under the pillow, lifted his clothes to wipe the sweat off his forehead, looked at his body, and made sure that he didn't see anything abnormal, so he dragged his legs out of bed, put on his shoes, stood up with the bed, limped to the door, he stood up straight, turned on the light, slowed down for a few seconds, and opened the door.

"What's wrong?" He asked Xu Tanxi.

He didn't look out of the ordinary.

Xu Tanxi stood at his door, and he looked at the clothes on her body: "You went out?" ”

She is neatly dressed, and the cloak on her body has a bit of an ancient charm, which is very flattering to her, dignified and elegant.

"I went to the hospital to get my medicine." She took out two boxes of medicine from her coat pocket, "This painkiller is not addictive, as long as you don't take it for a long time, it won't have a side effect-

The words were kissed by Rong Li.

He pulled her into the room, closed the door, and kissed her against the wall, the heat on his body and the sweaty palms of his palms around her waist.

He kissed so hard that he couldn't tell whether it was pain or emotion, the corners of his eyes were red, his ears were also hot, and the hand around her waist gradually went up, and he couldn't help himself, and he was a little out of control.

Xu Tanxi panted and pushed him: "Go to bed." ”

Rong Li pecked twice on her red and moist lips, pressed his chin on her shoulder, calmed down for a while, took his hand out of her clothes, was not satisfied, and his voice was muffled: "Not today, my leg hurts." ”

“……”

Xu Tanxi's face turned red.

This person......

She scratched his waist gently, like a cat's paw, "I told you not to stand, go and sit on the bed." ”

Rong Li looked a little disappointed: "Oh." He straightened her clothes and put his hand on her shoulder, "My leg hurts, you help me." ”

She held him carefully, and he walked with a slight limp on both legs.

"I'm going to pour water."

She sat him down, put the medicine on the bed, and went to pour a glass of warm water.

"How many are you eating?"

"The same one."

Of the two medicines, Rong Li peeled one out and put it in his mouth.

Xu Tanxi gave him the water, and he swallowed it, the pill was a little bitter.

She took the cup, placed it on the table, then folded it back to the bed, took a piece of candy out of her pocket, and fed it to his mouth.

Rong Li opened his mouth to swallow the sugar, and kissed her lightly in the palm of her hand: "Xu Tanxi," he asked with a smile, "Are you the roundworm in my stomach?" ”

What he didn't say, what he pretended to be fine, what he wanted, she knew it, she didn't need him to show it, she knew it too, and then gave it to him.

"I'm not a roundworm." Xu Tanxi held his face, his fingertips gently rubbed his outline, and he was very gentle in his eyebrows, "I am a person who knows you very well, so sir, you have to be honest with me." ”

She really understands him, sometimes even better than he does.

Rong Li nodded: "Got it." ”

She asked, "Does the leg hurt?" ”

He honestly said, "It hurts, it hurts." He pulled her to him, took her hand, and placed it on his neck, "It was all sweating in pain." ”

Her eyes were full of pity, and she was also a little annoyed with him: "Will you still kick the door with your foot in the future?" ”

She said this question many times.

"No kicking, I promise." He sat at the height of her waist, just right, and he hugged her in his arms, "Don't go back, sleep with me, huh?" ”

Her cheeks were stained with a thin layer of cloudy color: "Pajamas are at home." ”

"Wear mine."

"Okay."

He didn't let her change into pajamas, he pulled her to lie down, covered the quilt and kissed her, the sugar in his mouth stained her with the smell of strawberries.

The leg didn't hurt so much, I don't know if it was the painkillers that worked, or if she made him not care about the pain.

The winter nights are long, and it is only after eight o'clock in the morning that the sun sifts the broken gold into the window and fills the carpet.

People from the police station came to the hospital in the morning to understand the situation, Xiao Ji's house caught fire last night, because there was gasoline at the scene, and the door was also locked, it was indeed deliberate arson, but whether it was suicide or something else, the police still have to investigate.

The two victims were fine, and after they regained consciousness, the police came to make a note for them, but Xiao refused to speak, and his mental state was also very poor, so the police could not make a record for him, so they went to Wang Qiusheng first.

There were two criminal policemen, Tang Xiaozhong and Li Dabin.

"Mr. Wang, can you tell us about the specific situation last night?"

Wang Qiusheng had a bandage on his head, his face was pale, and he looked sickly: "Last night, I was drinking with a few colleagues in the entertainment city, and Ah Ji's assistant was also there, and he told me that Ah Ji asked him to buy gasoline, and I didn't think much about it at that time." In the middle of drinking, Ah Ji called me, his tone was very strange, as if he was explaining the aftermath, I knew that he was depressed, I was really not at ease, so I went to his residence, and it turned out that the house was really burning, and the door was locked from the inside, and I smashed it open with a fire extinguisher. ”

The confession doesn't sound like a problem.

Tang Xiaozhong still had questions: "You are there to save people, why did you smoke so much smoke?" ”

Wang Qiusheng explained: "Ah Ji wanted to die and refused to come out, and when I forcibly pulled him out, he was hit by a chair and almost fainted, so I delayed a little time." ”

He did have a wound on his head, and his confession sounded consistent with the facts.

Tang Xiaozhong looked at Li Dabin.

Li Dabin has nothing to add.

Tang Xiaozhong said: "Mr. Wang, please keep the phone open, if there is any need later, we will contact you again." ”

Wang Qiusheng said no problem.

Out of the ward, Tang Xiaozhong asked Li Dabin: "Can the fingerprints be extracted from the fire extinguisher that smashed the door?" ”

"It was burned by fire, and it shouldn't be extracted."

Tang Xiaozhong held his pocket: "A few people's rhetoric is right, but I always feel that something is weird." ”

Before Wang Qiusheng was born, they made a record of Xiao Ji's adoptive mother and assistant, and the rhetoric was the same as Wang Qiu's.

"I think it's weird." Li Dabin had a bad impression of Wang Qiusheng, "Wang Qiusheng doesn't look like a person who can save people." ”

It's not like that.

Rong Li is even more not.

"I have done everything you said," Wang Qiusheng lay on the hospital bed, looking at the person at the bedside, "when will the money be given to me?" ”

Rong Li said, "Wait." ”

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Rong Li went to JP Underground Computer City, and this was the fourth time he came.

As before, he wore a mask and hat, he was dressed in black, he was tall, and he was a good hanger - a bit like a criminal's hanger.

Zeng Sales was very happy to see the gold owner's father: "Mr. is here again." "This time, I don't ask what service you want, the sales are very good, and the arrangements are proper, "The room is ready for you." ”
