Chapter 501: Old Man Mo Visits
"But...... What about Second Master Mo? What does he think about this? ”
When she heard this word, Lin Ran couldn't help but think of her current ambiguous state with Mo Zhi, which made her want to pull her hair and throw herself off the top floor, no matter how much she relaxed herself and didn't think about it, Lin Ran still felt that this matter was simply a stain on her life.
If I sneaked into the second uncle's house and killed him, Lin Ran thought about this matter very seriously, so would I be able to safely take this matter to the grave?
“…… Miss? ”
Uncle Cheng's voice startled Lin Ran, who was unconsciously immersed in her own thoughts, and she raised her head blankly and looked at Uncle Cheng: "What's wrong?" ”
"Are you ......" Uncle Cheng looked at the girl he had seen since he was a child, "Who are you going to kill?" ”
“…… Uncle Cheng, how do you know what is in my heart? ”
"I don't know, you just said it yourself."
Lin Ran felt that he could really put Mo Zhi at the top of the list of stains in his life.
But now, even if she is entangled in the matter with Mo Zhi, the problem in front of her now is Lin Yiye's problem.
Since she learned these things from Ji Feiyu - after all, because of her, Ji Feiyu's subordinates are staring at Lin Yiye, so the news on his side is faster than that on Mo Zhi's side - after Lin Ran admitted that in order to avoid trouble, whether it is his actions or plans, he is somewhat passive, but this does not mean that if people have come to the door, she will not say anything like now.
Those gadgets that can't be used on the table, including the satellite phone to Zhou Huai'an, actually didn't come from any of his guesses, it was given to her by Ji Feiyu to relieve her boredom, although she still had doubts about this old friend who hadn't seen much, but she was already thinking about throwing the few things in her hands to Ji Feiyu when she had no choice but to do so.
Despite her doubts—Lin Ran smiled self-deprecatingly—she was suspicious of anyone.
She shrank into the soft quilt, I don't know if it was a problem with her sleeping position, or if the conversation with Uncle Cheng faintly aroused her uneasiness, and Lin Ran was not stable this night.
There seemed to be a constant sound in her ears, the retina was stained with red, and many people who had seen her respectfully rushed to her with red eyes...... It's a nightmare...... Lin Ran thought in a daze.
Then there were large expanses of moon flowers, blooming like a convulsion, red as if paint had been splashed and dyed, and the figure that was so small that it was impossible to breathe at any time when it was inserted into his sight...... Lin Ran felt that her chest might have been pressed by her arm, otherwise how could she feel suffocated?
This claustrophobia-like feeling stayed with her for years, and her freedom was confined to that small attic for two whole months, more than sixty days and nights—Shen Weixin and Xiao Hansheng, two psychiatrists, have said, and this may be the reason why she is paranoid and refuses to let herself stop, always looking for her next destination.
Because she is not so much trying to achieve something, but she is more eager for freedom, absolutely, freedom without human interference. It's like a child who has once been hungry and is unwilling to waste food.
And Lin Ran also knew it very clearly. Until she can do that, she has to stand where no one dares to question it.
It's a dream...... It's a dream......
Lin Ran said this to herself over and over again in her heart.
Then the dream changed again, the face that had made her remember countless days and nights, appeared in front of her with the same smile in her memory, and the big eyes that would bend into crescents when she laughed - Lin Ran's voice that kept reminding herself that this was a dream suddenly stopped, and she trembled slightly uncontrollably, wanting to reach out and touch that face.
But her figure was getting farther and farther away, the smile in the eyes that stared at her gradually dissipated, and the slightest trace of sadness rose, and she said, "Lin Ran...... What's the difference between you and those you hate...... Are you still human......"
After a long period of stable mood, it was like a strong typhoon suddenly came, Lin Ran felt that her heart was about to burst, she wanted to shout, she wanted to refute, she wanted to let her know how ridiculous her innocence was, but she couldn't shout. The feeling of suffocation grew stronger, and the other figure of herself soon dissipated, and another pair of eyes appeared in front of her—a strange, eternally melancholy one. Search the e-book
She couldn't remember when she had seen such eyes, but there was an almost uncontrollable malice surging in her subconscious...... and the desire to kill.
Although she couldn't remember, she knew the eyes.
Lin Ran twitched violently, sweating profusely and opening his eyes, outside the window was a faint and dawning skylight.
This expensive villa is now empty, although Uncle Cheng is guarding her every step of the way, but Lin Ran is a girl after all, and she still sleeps alone in the master bedroom when she sleeps, she turned her gaze, glanced at the bedroom, and then pressed her arm to her eyes-
Lin Ran didn't expect that after such a long time, she would suddenly remember what happened in that attic, at that time, in that place where she couldn't tell the difference between day and night, Lin Ran always felt that there were actually two selves tearing in her heart, and the image of the other self - or Lin Ran, who used to really treat Qiao Jingyi and them as relatives - became clearer and clearer with the passage of time, perhaps subconsciously, Lin Ran did not fully accept his changes in so many years.
Lin Ran closed her eyes tiredly, but this dream has really become a thing of the past now.
No matter what this dream was, the next day Old Man Mo unexpectedly came here to visit Lin Ran, which made Lin Ran a little unexpected, after all, she was the only one at this point in time, and Mo Zhi was still in the company and did not come back.
After some greetings, Old Man Mo finally sat down in the study, and it could be seen that the two of them had something to talk about.
"Come on, girl, it's just the two of us here." Old Man Mo, who was sitting on the chair in the study, still spoke to Lin Ran with that kind smile, but his eyes were sharp, "You almost had an accident this time, it's impossible to really admit that you're unlucky, right?" ”
Regarding this matter, Lin Ran didn't intend to hide it from Old Man Mo from the beginning, firstly, there was nothing to hide from herself, and secondly, even if she wanted to hide it, she would definitely not be able to hide it from Old Man Mo, she lowered her eyes slightly and smiled, and her indifferent aura had all receded: "Sure enough, you can see at a glance, I still don't plan to let it go like this in my heart." ”
"You're different from ordinary girls," Old Man Mo squinted his eyes and laughed, "You have a knife in your eye." ”
When hearing this analogy, Lin Ran was stunned for a moment, and then laughed slowly: "You really ...... It's the first time I've heard this metaphor. ”
Old Man Mo looked at her: "But the first time I saw you, I knew that you were the most suitable to describe it like this, this is not a compliment or a derogation, old man, I am just telling the truth, that is, this is what makes you more like your father than anything else." ”
"I don't really want to show my edge." Lin Ran slowly put away her smile, "But if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, and now that everyone has stepped on my bottom line, I can't just swallow my anger."
"You know, when I first heard about what you did, I suspected I had misheard." Old Man Mo seemed to remember something, and showed a nostalgic look, "I originally thought that because of the relationship between your mother and stepfather, you really became a gentle man who didn't care about anything. I didn't expect that the sharpness in your bones is still there, and you have been refining yourself all these years. ”
"Let yourself become a sharp weapon that is not out of the sheath, and you will inevitably see blood when you get out of the sheath."
Lin Ran's whole person calmed down, and after a while, he raised his head and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Although I can't help it, I don't want to pretend to be like I hate these things, maybe I'm looking forward to these things in my bones...... Forget this, what do you think of this place in Yancheng? ”
As if he didn't expect Lin Ran to choose the beginning of this question, Old Man Mo was stunned at first, and then answered Lin Ran's question while thinking: "This place in Yancheng ...... If it was a year ago, although the forces of all parties were still in the same mess as they are now, at least as calm as on the surface, even if there was a little friction, it would have been resolved in private. Until ......"
"Until, this year, Wu Ziping, a madman, is back here." Lin Ran lowered his head and said, "No, it's not actually Wu Ziping's reason, he is just a fuse that gave Yancheng a chance to break out." ”
Old Man Mo nodded approvingly: "You're right, Wu Ziping is just a good tinder, he ignited the line where the big powder keg exploded in Yancheng, and he himself is quite aware of this." ”
"This man is a smart man, he has his own ends and means." Lin Ran said.
"It's true that Wu Ziping is a fuse, but in fact, among them, you are also a little spark - after all, after the Qin family's incident, how many pairs of eyes are staring at you."
Old Man Mo calmly pointed out this, and Lin Ran laughed softly: "You might as well say, how many people are victims of paranoia." If it were anything else, I could think I couldn't see it, but some people do it too much, and they don't even pay attention to the law......
