Some people like to live under the sun, and some people like to live in the dark, however, most people still like to live under the sun, because the sun can dispel the darkness in the depths of the human heart, and those who live in the darkness also desire to live under the sun.

The moon is cloudy and sunny, and there are days and nights in a day, and at this time, it is more than four o'clock in the morning, which is the darkest tenth of the night.

In a house somewhere in S City, a white-haired old man, lying on a recliner, slightly open his eyes, looking at the night outside, he seemed to see something, his expression was very happy, in fact, in the old man's field of vision, except for pitch black, there was nothing.

"Squeak ......"

The chaise longue was gently swaying, driving the old man to shake with it, and the sound of the chaise longue rubbing against the floor was very small, but in the dead of night, it was extraordinarily loud.

It may be that people are getting older and have less time to sleep.

The old man likes to lie on the chaise longue in the dead of night, looking at the dark night sky, the breeze blowing on his cheeks, blowing the old man's gray hair, gentle and comfortable, but it can't blow the old man's more and more obvious wrinkles, as well as the age spots on the skin.

The old man actually hated the dark, and that was the case from the beginning, and when he was young, he saw not the living, but the dead, and in a cold room, on a cold dissecting table, a corpse lay quietly on it, like a fish on a chopping board, to be slaughtered.

Men, women, the elderly, children...... In the old man's past life, he saw too much, whether the other party is a man or a woman, old or young, beautiful or ugly, they are all the same in the eyes of the old man, no matter what they have experienced in their lives, what they have said, what they have done, when they appear in front of the old man, they have only one identity, that is, the deceased.

The room where the temperature is much lower than the outside all the year round, where the old man is all the year round, the smell of the rotten corpse, the smell of disinfectant water, the perennial stinging - stimulating his sense of smell, the sound of the scalpel cutting through the skin, the sound of the tool cutting the bones, and the sound of the air conditioner running at high speed, impacting his hearing again and again, he does not like to talk, and he does not want to speak, just like those corpses that he dissected with a scalpel, silent and speechless.

Living indoors all the year round, his skin is very white, white like a dead man, his body always exudes a strange smell, that is the smell of corpse decay, although, after each dissection, he has washed his body again and again very seriously, but the smell has always been with him, he hates dissection, he longs for sunlight, but, decades have passed, he has seen dead people far more often than living people, and he stays in dark places far more than living in the sun.

No one really likes the dark, and so does the old man, he longs for the sunshine, but he has to live in the dark, as was the case in the past, and the days are the same, he still lives in the dark, and he is used to it.

Maybe the old man is really old, he is lying on the recliner and remembers a lot of the past.

He clearly remembered that when he first participated in the work, the first corpse dissected was a giant view, at that time, several of the criminal police who arrived at the scene with him vomited on the spot, and he was the same, vomiting so much, he felt that he was going to die, and the person who was with him at that time was Xu Yuan, and Lu Ye who was with him.

At that time, Xu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What's the matter, our Sun Da forensic doctor, I can't stand it, it seems that you are really not suitable to be a forensic doctor." ”

He was so vomiting that he couldn't speak, and he didn't have time to pay attention to him.

In fact, the old man never told anyone that he was actually afraid of corpses, especially those that were rotten, but he became a forensic doctor, a very good forensic doctor.

His life is monotonous and boring, with almost no friends around him, except for those close instruments and corpses whose names he can't remember, only the scalpel in his hand, and those friends who always joke about himself, Xu Yuan and Lu Ye, it's a pity that they are all gone, one died in the detention center more than 20 years ago, and the other died in his own home not long ago, but he is still alive.

Xu Yuan is dead, his son is still alive, two sons and a daughter, one son is dead, and the daughter was also killed at the age of Hua Ji, only the child named Xu Lang remains, he watched the child grow up little by little, to speak in his heart, he likes this child very much, he is very smart, very sensitive, and he was born to be a policeman, but behind his intelligence and sharpness, there is also an unstable heart hidden.

At a young age, he became a loner, who made him like this?

It's him, or rather, it's the organization he belongs to, he wants to release the demon in that child's heart again and again, but, failed again and again, a few years ago, that siege was actually the best opportunity, watching his brother die in front of him, but the beloved woman died because of himself, former colleagues and comrades-in-arms, their betrayal and sacrifice, these made the child on the verge of collapse, completely releasing the evil in his heart, however, he, or rather, they still failed, The child would rather flee than be released.

He has observed him for more than thirty years, and now, he is old and is going to die, he is ready to make one last attempt, a contest, no matter what the result is, he will die, and as for the next thing, naturally someone will go to the end.

Thinking of this, the old man smiled, his white fingers gently patting the back of the chair, looking leisurely.

————

"What the hell do you want to do?"

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded behind the old man, listening to the voice, the man's age is not very old, about the same as Xu Lang, but the other party's tone is very unkind, angry, incomprehensible, and depressed......

The old man struggled to open his eyes slightly, but the movement of his fingers tapping the back of the chair still did not stop.

"You've been with me for so many years, don't you know what I want to do?" The old man said lightly.

"Is he really that important? What am I not as good as him? The man asked in a raised voice again.

The old man slapped the back of the chair, paused slightly, and then returned to normal.

"You're doing a great job, you're the best of the younger generation, and that's very gratifying."

"Then why are you doing this?"

The old man finally stopped what he was doing, and he turned his head to look at the man standing behind him.

There was no light in the room, it was pitch black, and the man's figure was completely hidden in the darkness, except for the pair of shining, shining eyes, it was impossible to see the man's other physical features.

"You're doing a good job, but it's not enough, if it were him, he wouldn't ask me that, Red, you have to control your emotions, emotions can sometimes make you lose your cool and judgment."

Like most old people, he began to preach again.

"In you, in your eyes, am I still inferior to him?"

The man gasped and roared in a low tone.

The old man smiled, turned his head, and instead of looking at the man, he continued to look at the night sky outside, and said lightly: "Why did you go with me in the first place?" ”

The man was stunned, he didn't know why the old man suddenly asked about this, he thought for a while and said, "I don't know." ”

"Hehe......"

The old man smiled, the laughing man was inexplicable, and he didn't understand what the old man meant.

"You're good, you're good, you're better than him in many ways, but do you know why we're doing that?" The old man asked.

"Why?"

What the old man asked was exactly what the man was puzzled about.

"Control your emotions and feelings, restraint, that's where you're inferior to him, you know?"

"Am I not restrained enough? I have mastered my emotions and feelings, you once told me that if you want to be a good member, you don't need feelings, you said that, I did it, didn't I do enough? The man asked.

The old man nodded, shook his head again, and said, "So, what about you now?" You say you have no feelings, you have mastered your emotions, but if you look at you now, what are you now? ”

"I don't want to watch you die." The man was finally angry, and he yelled loudly.

"I'm old, the future belongs to you young people, people always have to die, it's the same if you die early or late......"

"It's different, you're not the same as them." The man interrupted the old man.

"Rhett, you know what I'm doing this for, if I fail, in the future, it's up to you to continue, remember my words, for the sake of the end, you can do whatever it takes, including life, he's important, it's really important to our organization, and you're important, so, if something goes wrong, you don't do anything, don't care about anything, you know?"

"No, I can't, I ......"

The man shook his head frantically, crying in his voice.

If it was before, the old man would definitely reprimand him, but this time, the old man didn't, he just looked at the night sky outside and didn't speak.

After a long time, the man spoke again.

"The people from the Secret Service are in S City, they should be coming for you." The man reminded.

"I know, the moment they came to S City, I already knew." The old man said lightly.

"We're going now, it's still too late, it's late, it's too late."

The old man shook his head and said, "If I had to leave, I wouldn't have come back, I wouldn't have left." ”

"Teacher......"

The man was still about to say something, but the old man raised his hand, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, you go, leave S City, and don't get involved in the next thing." ”

"No, I'm not leaving, I'm going to stay with you."

"You have to go, take the man named Chen Shan away, he will help you later."

"I ......"

"Go, leave now, if you don't leave, I'll let you go, you know I do what I say."

“.......”

There was another long silence, the man didn't say anything more, he looked at the old man who was dying, his eyes flashed, and finally, he turned and left, leaving the old man alone.

"Kid, do you know what I'm trying to do?"

After the man left, the old man muttered to himself, as if he was asking the man who had just left, and as if he was asking someone else.

————

After going to CSY today and bringing Xiao Yueyue home again, she packed up all the things that Xiao Yueyue would use for the start of school tomorrow, and the two of them were busy for a long time.

Maybe she was tired, Xiao Yueyue went into the bedroom and fell asleep after washing up after dinner, but Ye Du couldn't sleep at all.

Today, she did not go back to her home, but stayed at Xu Lang's house.

She sat on the couch in the living room, looking out the window.

Zou Renjiang is dead, she knows, she also knows who killed him, but what can she do if she knows, she still can't do anything, she can only watch what happens.

She was very clear about that old man's methods, and she was even clearer about that organization, she knew that she couldn't do anything now, and she couldn't do anything, she could only help him take care of Xiao Yueyue, and other than that, she really couldn't do anything.

"Jingle Bell ......"

Ye Du's cell phone rang.

She picked up her phone and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number, but she still answered the phone.

"What are you looking for me to do at such a late hour?"

"I'm downstairs, I want to talk to you." A man's voice rang from the other end of the phone.

"We don't have much to talk about." Ye Du bluntly refused.

"Ye Du, don't force me, do you want me to come up to you?"

The man's voice was muffled, and it was clear that he was angry at this time.

Hearing the man say this, Ye Du was silent for a few seconds, hesitated, and said, "Wait." ”

After speaking, Ye Du hung up the phone, got up from the sofa, walked to the balcony, and looked outside, sure enough, there was a figure shaking outside, and she knew who he was.

Ye Du's face was gloomy, she took a deep breath, turned around and went to Xiao Yueyue's room.

Pushing open the door, she glanced inside, and found that Xiao Yueyue slept very soundly, Ye Du tiptoed into the room, put Xiao Yueyue's arm stretched out outside the quilt into the quilt, and after covering her with the quilt, she looked at Xiao Yueyue for a while, then got up, left the bedroom, pushed open the door and walked out.

After Ye Du went downstairs, she came to the figure, and with a distance of one meter, she had a gloomy face and asked, "What are you looking for me?" ”

At this time, Ye Du, where is there still the tranquility and gentleness that Xu Lang and they saw, she is like an iceberg, cold and biting.

"I'm getting out of here." The man spoke.

Ye Du nodded and said, "You shouldn't come back." ”

"But, you're back......"

Before the man could finish speaking, Ye Du interrupted him and said, "What does it have to do with you when I come back?" ”

"It doesn't matter, I'm worried about your safety."

Ye Du glanced at the man, turned his head, and said, "I'm not a child anymore, I can take care of myself, and you don't have to worry about my safety." ”

“.......”

The man was silent, and Ye Du didn't say anything more.

After a long time, the man spoke again.

"You're here for him, aren't you?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Why? Don't you know it yourself? I've made it very clear to you that you don't have to worry about my business. ”

"Hehe......"

The man smiled bitterly, he looked at Ye Du, and said slowly: "It is impossible for you to be together, if he knows, you are our people......"

"I didn't want to be with him either." Ye Du interrupted the man's words again.

"What the hell are you doing this?" The man asked.

Ye Du glanced at the man and did not speak, as if her expression had already told the man the answer.

Seeing this scene, the man's expression became more and more bitter, he raised his head, glanced at the direction of Xu Lang's house, and then asked slowly, "You really don't want to go with me?" ”

Ye Du shook his head without thinking.

"Then don't regret it, he's been in trouble recently, and it's big trouble, he's going to die, you stay, you can't help him at all, you can't do anything, and the organization can't let you do anything, you should understand."

"I know."

"And what are you staying here for?"

"Red, you go, if you come to me just to tell me about it, I'll tell you, I won't go, that's all."

After saying this, Ye Du turned around and left.

"Ye Du, you'll regret it."

The man's suppressed roar sounded behind Ye Du, Ye Du's footsteps only paused slightly, still didn't say anything, and continued to walk forward, not giving the man a chance to speak at all.

Soon, Ye Du's figure disappeared from the man's field of vision.

The man's expression was bitter, in fact, before he came here, he knew the answer, but he still wanted to try, even if there was only a trace of possibility, he had to try, however, the result can be imagined, he knew Ye Du, and he also knew Xu Lang, and it was precisely because he understood that he felt unwilling.

The man stayed in place for a while, and seeing that Ye Du had no intention of coming back, he didn't hesitate anything, and turned to leave.

Before leaving, the man said slowly: "Ye Du, you will regret it, he will die, he will definitely die in my hands, you wait." ”

Ye Du returned to the room, stood on the balcony, looked at the man's back gradually gone, his eyes were sad, how much she hoped that the man could stay, or rather, give up everything he has now, as before, everyone is still friends, however, she knows that this is impossible, just like she can't go with him, he won't give up everything he has now, however, what can she do, what should she do?

The dark vortex devoured everyone who approached it, and she and them, both in the center of the vortex, would be swallowed at any moment.
