Chapter Twenty-Six: The Girl

Shen Ran decided to see Li Mingyu again.

He discussed it with Lu Cheng, and he didn't mess around with anything else, so he brought her photo.

The only photo of the woman before her death was the group photo at school.

In addition, an instrument may be used.

It is the black box that Shen Ran uses to communicate with people and connect consciousness.

"Why use this?" Lu Cheng asked.

"This ...... I'm not sure if I need it, but I have a conjecture that I might be able to confirm. ”

Shen Ran didn't say it explicitly, Lu Cheng knew that it belonged to his professional category. He believed that Shen Ran's arrangement must have his reasons, and he would supervise and assist him.

A date was agreed and the meeting ended.

Lu Cheng didn't know if it was his own delusion, he always felt that since he had dinner alone that night and saw Shen Ran again, some things seemed to be different from before.

For example, he wanted to walk beside Shen Ran, it was natural before, Shen Ran was there, he could go over and pat him, touch him, these were all right.

As soon as he turned his head now, he saw Shen Ran standing one meter away from him.

He wanted to reach out, but it was always unnatural and unaccustomed.

After the meeting, he asked Shen Ran: "I'll send you." ”

His car was downstairs, and he hoped that Shen Ran would agree.

But Shen Ran just smiled and said, "It's late today, you go back early, it's very convenient for me to take a taxi." ”

If it was before, Lu Cheng would definitely make his own decisions and insist on sending him back.

But now......

He didn't know if Shen Ran really found it convenient to take a taxi, or if he didn't want to go with him at all.

Is he keeping his distance? Lu Cheng asked himself.

Keep your distance from me? Why.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Lu Cheng scratched his hair irritably, he felt that his chest had never been so stuffy.

Was it because of the events of that day?

In addition to eating that day, Lu Cheng couldn't think of any other reason that would cause Shen Ran's change.

No, we can't wait.

He felt that it was imperative to explain, and he had to find a time to explain to Shen Ran. He didn't arrange it on purpose that day, he wasn't that, he didn't want to lose a friend, although he couldn't say that he had lost him now, but Lu Cheng was a little uneasy in his heart.

He didn't want Shen Ran to alienate him, nor did he want Shen Ran to be wary of him, he just wanted to return to the intimate state with Shen Ran in the past, in that state, he trusted Shen Ran, and he could also feel Shen Ran's trust in him. Especially Shen Ran's trust in him, that feels good.

He also wanted to continue......

Two days later, Lu Cheng arranged another interrogation.

He contacted Xu Guangyuan in advance, rented the connected equipment of the institute for a long time, and the police had the right to handle all the data obtained from the instrument during this period and keep it confidential.

And the picture that was on the table in the interrogation room.

Everything is ready, just wait for Shen Ran.

Shen Ran arrived in time that day, and as soon as Shen Ran came, he went to the monitoring room, saw these arrangements, and nodded in satisfaction.

Lu Cheng: "I'll go in with you in a while." ”

Shen Ran: "Okay." ”

Li Mingyu sat in the position of being interrogated in advance.

He still kept his head down, listless, and not ready to talk to anyone.

Shen Ran and Lu Cheng went in and sat opposite him, and he didn't raise his head to take a look.

Lu Cheng and Shen Ran glanced at each other, then turned the photo on the table to face him, and moved the photo in front of him.

As expected, when he caught a glimpse of the person in the photo, he grabbed the photo and looked at it.

He clutched the picture tightly, his eyes wide open, but he didn't say a word.

I stared at it quietly for a long time, and I saw that my eyes were a little red, and I seemed to have something to say in my throat, but I just couldn't say anything.

In this state, Shen Ran and Lu Cheng waited for more than ten minutes, and there was no change.

Lu Cheng frowned, and Shen Ran raised his hand at this time.

Lu Chengyi grabbed his wrist.

They both know what they're thinking about each other.

Shen Ran smiled slightly and said, "I can calm him down, and maybe I can see something in his consciousness." ”

"Then I'm ready, if anything happens to you, I'll wake you up."

Lu Cheng opened the black box and turned on a switch, and a yellow-green light flashed on the back of his neck, which was the chip that Xu Guangyuan implanted in the back of his neck before.

He took out two wires from the box, one end of which was to be attached to Li Mingyu's temple, and the other was connected to Lu Cheng's temple.

Before doing these actions, he first demonstrated and explained to Li Mingyu, but Li Mingyu ignored his words.

At this time, Shen Ran was no longer able to hear Lu Cheng's voice clearly.

His vision blurred.

It was like a movie playing in front of him, frame after frame, and he felt like he was reminiscing, but these were not his own memories.

Eventually, the image in front of me and the surrounding environment stabilized.

He found himself standing in the doorway of an old apartment building, with an old burglar-proof iron door in front of him.

Shen Ran felt that he was much shorter, under normal circumstances, he should be about the same height as this door, but here, he was only a little taller than half of this door.

He knocked twice, but no one answered, so he knocked for a long time, and finally there was a reaction in the door.

I only heard a man say in a rough voice: "What knock, knock, the dead are still collecting debts!" Then there was the sound of a heavy object being thrown out of it and slamming into the door.

Shen Ran felt that he didn't dare to knock anymore.

It's not that he doesn't dare, but the real owner of this memory doesn't dare, and he feels apprehensive and afraid. He still can't be entirely sure whose memory it is.

Every move of the man in the door made him nervous, and his hairs stood on end.

But he didn't leave there, still waiting at the door.

After a long while, the door opened from the inside, and Shen Ran took a few steps back sharply.

His first impression of the man was the huge beer belly squeezed out the door, "Here we go again!" Hurry up and say something. His eyebrows were wide open, and his face was extremely impatient.

Shen Ran heard himself speak, "The money is not enough, Dad." ”

It was a girl's voice, delicate and timid. The little girl's voice was not loud, and the last two words were even more timid, and she didn't know who she was calling if she didn't listen carefully.

The rough-voiced, fat-headed, big-eared man in front of her turned out to be her father!

"Money? It's money again! Let's just say that you are here to collect debts, and you are going to find your mother! As he spoke, he was about to close the door.

The girl was in a hurry, regardless of her fear, she took a step forward and grabbed the door and said, "Mom said let me come to you, she said she had no money and had to pay the tuition......"

"What's so noisy!" Another woman's voice came from the room, and it was sharp and harsh, very impatient.

"I'll send the insurance seller right away!" The man replied with a loud voice, as if he didn't want the woman in the room to come out and see the truth.

The man frowned, frizzily took out a wallet from his trouser pocket, and took out a few pieces of money from the bag to stuff it into the girl's hand, urging urgently and quietly: "That's all, don't get an inch, go quickly!" ”

The man pushed her so hard that she staggered back a few steps from the doorway, almost falling to the ground.

The man paused for a second, and when he saw that she was fine, he closed the door and went back to the house.

The girl got up and patted the ashes on her hands, and she didn't care much, so she quickly grabbed the money in her hand first.

A gust of wind passed, and one of the money that I didn't grasp just now fell out of my hand.

In a hurry, the girl hurried to chase after her.

The wind seemed to be working against her, too, and the faster she chased, the harder it blew. From the doorway, it blew all the way through this row of old buildings, all the way down to the street.

From this row of residential buildings, there is a small street outside.

Although this building is old, the location is not biased, and there are several commercial office buildings near the street.

As soon as the girl ran out of the old building, she fell to the ground and grabbed the money that could run.

At this time, a man on the street shouted, "Lee! ”

The man shouted as he ran, a little out of breath, and was running in the direction of the girl.

Call me? The girl didn't know why, so she quickly got up from the ground and patted the ash on her school skirt.

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li Mingyu, I'm late, this is the takeaway you ordered."

The delivery man who ran towards her passed her and ran dozens of meters to the front of the street before stopping.

The girl realized that she wasn't calling herself. She had the same surname as the man who picked up the delivery, so she reflexively wanted to say yes.

Li Mingyu, with the same surname, seems to have heard this name somewhere......

Thinking so, she glanced at the man in front of her.

Unexpectedly, the man was also looking at her.

Although her expression was cold, she could clearly see that those eyes were watching her.

Her heart was pounding.

At this time, Shen Ran, who occupied the girl's body, could still use his remaining self-consciousness to distinguish that the beating heart belonged to the girl, not his.

He was just a bystander temporarily attached to the girl.

At the same time, he could also clearly distinguish that Li Mingyu, who he saw just now, also had a bystander in his body.

It's Lucheng.

Probably Lu Cheng also entered Li Mingyu's consciousness world, but he was looking at this memory from Li Mingyu's perspective.

In this memory, the real protagonists are this girl and Li Mingyu.

There wasn't any place for anyone else, so neither Shen Ran nor Lu Cheng appeared here in their own appearance.

Shen Ran didn't expect that one day he would enter another person's consciousness in this form.

Not surprisingly, Lu Cheng should have recognized Shen Ran in the girl's body at the first time.

However, from the outside world, from the eyes of Xiaomei in the monitoring room, the three of them are now asleep at the same time.

Memories continue.

The girl turned and walked away from the other side of the street.

It took a while for her rapid heartbeat to subside.

I didn't have time to think about whether I was nervous or panicked at that moment, probably because she was suddenly discovered, she was peeking at each other, and she had a feeling of stealing and being caught. On weekdays, she always hides in the corner, not used to being watched.

With the money in her hand, she hasn't counted it yet, plus the part to be distributed to her mother, she knows that the amount is still not enough.

Do you go to school and settle the tuition first, or do you go home and give the money to your mother first?

There is also a strange uncle in the family recently, and she is very uncomfortable.

Ay......
