Chapter 10: The Deformed Heart (1)
Autumn is a season of cold and cool.
Late at night, the deserted street is bathed in a thin cold mist, and under the illumination of the street lamps, there is a slight enchanting atmosphere. The sound of hurried high heels broke the silence, and it became clearer and clearer from far to near. A shadow floated by, it turned out to be a woman in a white gauze one-suit hakama, this is a beautiful and fashionable woman, carrying a black bag, her hurried high heels accompanied by the sound of rapid breathing, she kept looking back, as if someone was chasing her, she was on the run, the night wind blew her soft long black hair, her face was full of fear. Suddenly, she screamed, her nerves snapped, and she fell limply, a pair of strong, powerful arms wrapped around her waist before they touched the ground. "Are you alright?" A rich and magnetic male voice. The woman raised her head, and a handsome face appeared in her blurred vision, which she recognized, "Li Dalong." She exclaimed, her expression visibly relaxed, and added, "It's really time for you to come, and it's terrible that someone was following me just now." She said as she broke free from Li Dalong's arms, she seemed to resist him, her movements were stiff and cold.
"You're so pretty, it's normal to be followed, especially at night." Li Dalong said.
"It's annoying, that guy must be a pervert." The woman muttered, her mouth pouting with light lipstick, she suddenly thought of why Li Dalong was here, and asked, "Where are you going?" How did we meet here so coincidentally? β
"I'm going to play cards at Ah San's house." Li Dalong said.
"Oh~, and the flamboyant Ah San." The woman smiled, "That guy has a very sweet mouth, and when he sees me, he calls me Sister Qiu Die." β
The woman has a nice name called Autumn Butterfly. She is a clerk in the recruitment and personnel department of a state-owned enterprise, and this Li Dalong is the security guard of this state-owned enterprise, the security room is only separated by a wall from the recruitment office, and the two meet almost every day, but they hardly speak, because the door of the recruitment office faces the noisy street, this Ms. Qiu Die does not need to go to the company's door every day to work, and there is no intersection with the security guards, except for the necessity of work.
"I'll take you back to the dormitory." Li Dalong said.
"yes, thank you so much."
The two walked side by side, talking as they went.
"What are you doing at this late hour?" Li Dalong said.
"I went to class, I signed up for a painting interest class, and the class was supposed to end at eight o'clock, but my friend asked me to go for supper, so I got it so late." Autumn Butterfly looked at the night sky in the distance, her beautiful eyelashes were wet with mist, and dots of crystal dots dotted on the thin ends. Li Dalong didn't speak, his head lowered slightly. Qiu Die suddenly noticed that his eyes slipped towards her from time to time, it was an ambiguous action that was not easy to detect, and the corner of his eye glanced at her, which was very subtle. Qiu Die hurriedly leaned towards the side of the road, distanced herself from him, and then crossed an alley to reach the dormitory, and that alley was almost close, do you want him to accompany him into the alley, Qiu Die is entangled, the alley is the most dangerous place, and is this person next to him safe? She vaguely remembered how similar the fluttering figure that followed her just now was to him, and how tall and burly he was.
"What are you thinking?" Li Dalong said.
"It's nothing."
"You seem to hate me."
"Look at what you say." Qiu Die denied.
The alley came into their sight, the alley mouth was like a secluded hole, exuding a magical suction, Qiu Die stared at the alley of the black hole, she was cowardly, she needed Li Dalong to accompany her in.
The figures of the two disappeared in the bottomless alley, and suddenly, a woman's frightened scream came from inside, and just like that, it returned to silence, it was the voice of Ms. Qiu Dieγγγγγγ
In autumn, it is always rainy and rainy, and the cold is about to penetrate into people's bones. People have taken refuge from the sentimental rain, so there are few pedestrians on the roads, even in front of the city's largest textile company, employees are pouring into the canteen, no one comes out to eat, and the snack street is only flooded with rain.
Li Dalong sat in the security room, watching his colleague Cheng raise the parking bar to let a car pass by, Ah San was playing with his mobile phone, and this kid was thinking about playing. "What to play? So obsessed? Li Dalong asked him. Ah Santou didn't raise his head, and said: "Look at detective novels, this case is too similar to the case of Qiu Die's sister, the heroine was also killed in the alley, and she was also ruined by the murderer." A sneering smile appeared on the corner of Li Dalong's mouth, but he didn't say anything. Cheng walked in from outside, rubbing his hands together and complaining: "It's so fucking cold, it's not winter yet, our hard days are coming." β
A taxi pulled up next to the curb of the road not far from the recruitment office, the door opened, and out came a tall young girl, although the weather was cold, she was very thinly dressed, a black gauze one-suit hakama wrapped her graceful body, and the thin heels hit the ground mercilessly, making a "click" sound. The girl walked seductively, the white bag on her shoulder dancing like a white butterfly, she flicked her long golden hair, and disdained everything around her. Li Dalong and Cheng immediately noticed her, and even Ah San, who was deeply immersed in the novel, smelled a demonic aura and raised his head from his mobile phone. Only Li Dalong noticed that this woman's decoration was exactly the same as that of the autumn butterfly, one black and one white, there seemed to be some connection in the dark, maybe it was just popular, Li Dalong didn't know what was popular this year, he didn't understand the woman's set.
"It's so tasteful~" Cheng sighed, his eyes hanging on the girl.
"What does it smell like~" Ah San asked.
"Smelly! Silly boy, you're still young, you don't understand, this is a woman. Cheng said.
"Come on!" A san burst of disdain from his nostrils, "She's far worse than Sister Qiudie." β
Cheng Chao Ah San patted it on the head and said, "I know that Sister Qiu Die, how can you have such energy." β
The girl walked to the front door of the company, and without looking at the security room, she rushed straight to enter.
"Stop!" Li Dalong shouted to her through the glass and walked out, "You don't seem to be from the company, right?" What about your work permit? β
The girl rolled her eyes upward, slanted at Li Dalong and said, "What a work permit!" I'm here to apply for a personnel clerk, and now I have to report to the human resources department. Hurry up and let me in, can you take responsibility for delaying my business? β
"You're here to take over Sister Qiudie's work, right?" Ah San poked his head out.
The girl was even more impatient, rolled her eyes even more, and said, "What autumn butterfly, spring butterfly, what are you talking about!" β
The girl's answer dissipated the doubts in Li Dalong's heart - this woman has nothing to do with Chen Qiudie, they just happened to wear the same clothes, and this dress must be the most popular this year. But he really couldn't get used to this woman's arrogant attitude, so he took out Chen Qiudie's tragic experience to shock her, "Qiudie! It's the woman who was killed the other day, haven't you heard of it? If you're from this city, you've probably heard of it! She worked in the recruitment office before her death, this is the company, which department are you in? Isn't it also a recruitment office? Li Dalong said aggressively.
The girl was really frightened, the brutal atmosphere disappeared, her tongue began to knot, and she spoke incoherently: "Yes~ The murdered womanγγγγγγ why is it so coincidentalγγγγγγ "She seemed hesitant to go in or not, whether to get this job.
"Don't be afraid, she died in the alley, not in the office. What's your name, I'll call Human Resources. Li Dalong said.
"Fang γγγγγγ Fang Lishu."
Li Dalong went into the house, and after a while he came out again and said, "You can go in." β
This girl named Fang Lishu actually said thank you obediently, and then hesitantly entered the door of the company, and hesitantly walked towards the building of the Ministry of Resourcesγγγγγγ
Li Dalong's gaze chased her until she disappeared around the corner of the flower bed. Cheng and Ah San stretched their necks and were also chasing the shadow, and Ah San said coldly: "Another one." Then "Bah, Bah, Bah" slapped himself in the mouth.
In the evening, the security trio went to drink, at the wine table, chatting and chatting about women, when it came to women, Cheng and Ah San were interested, but Li Dalong closed his mouth, he didn't seem to be interested in the topic of women, just poured wine one by one, as if everything was in the wine, he frowned, it seemed that the wine had become bitter. In a hazy drunkenness, he seemed to hear Ah San say, autumn butterflies, autumn butterflies, how can their lifespans be long?
He didn't remember how he got home, he just knew that he was in his bed as soon as he woke up, the room was dim, the light of the street lamp outside was like frost on the glass, he got up and went to the living room, poured himself a glass of water, sat on the sofa and drank it all in one gulp, the house was huge, and it wasn't long before he moved in. Looking around, he felt a sense of loneliness, but he never thought of finding a woman to fill the other half. There was a sound of "click" of high heels, it was going up the stairs, getting closer and closer, Li Dalong's nerves were tense, the sound of women's high heels was the same, maybe he was nervous, sure enough, the pair of high heels passed by his door, walked towards the third floor, and gradually disappeared. Woman, he was holding the cup, and what was circling in his mind was the young girl named Fang Lishu, did she succeed in the interview? How he wished her the interview would be successful! He put down the cup and walked towards the bedroom, suddenly smelling a smell of blood, he didn't care, he wasn't afraid, he just wanted to sleep well now.
