Chapter I
"Xu Wen, didn't get up!"
He got up from the bed and walked over to the dresser and sat down. The urging outside the door came to an end with the word 'no'. He had slept for less than three hours, staring impatiently at himself in the mirror. Under the sleepy eyes, they were wrapped in heavy dark circles. When he went out with this appearance, he was afraid that he would be arrested and tortured as drug addicts.
After taking a closer look, the wheat-colored skin on his face that has been tanned day and night, and the eyebrows that the assistant forcibly groomed a few days ago, it seems that he is a very handsome guy without dressing up. Thinking of the wave of self-praise here made him instantly refreshed.
Xu Wen came out of the room and saw that the early morning sun had plated a layer of soft gold on her body, and she was sitting on the sofa in the living room, wearing a bright red tight-fitting dress, and her light makeup instantly outlined her complexion.
"Xu Wen, can you do it, my mother woke up at six o'clock in the morning."
Of course, if the scene in front of him could be stopped, Xu Wen would definitely not let this assistant speak...... After all, her irascible tone really didn't match me.
"Sister Zhou Xi, we didn't get home until three o'clock in the morning, didn't you sleep?" Xu Wen has always felt that this magical assistant Zhou Xi exists in this world like a robot.
Xu Wen, who was eating breakfast, would look at the report about himself as usual. Then the left ear went in and the right ear came out, listening to the assistant Zhou Xi, chattering like a crow on the side, reciting the daily itinerary. Suddenly, Xu Wen stopped Zhou Xi's chatter, and said hesitantly: "Today's volcanic dust...... Fly...... They...... Not...... Hmm. ”
"Do you dare to speak human words?" As he spoke, Zhou Xi snatched the open newspaper in Xu Wen's hand, only to see that the headline was no longer about [Xu Wen's new generation of writers].
Zhou Xi walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, only to see the ashes left by yesterday's peak mountain fire floating in the sky. The newspaper is prominently printed with the words "The dust caused by the wildfires in recent days will cover the sky over Andong City".
The two of them got into the business car that slowly drove towards the press conference, and the shiny car, which had just been washed and blackened, had been gradually covered with ashes. As usual, the radio station continued to broadcast about today's major events, and reports about Xu Wen as a new generation writer could always be heard in the middle. For the three words of the new generation, the twenty-five-year-old did not seem to be satisfied, so he simply asked the driver to turn off the radio broadcast on the car.
"It seems that this dust will be in Andong City for a long time." The driver's casual complaint attracted the attention of the two people who were originally sleepy in the back seat. I saw that on the gray street in front of me, pedestrians were collectively wearing various masks and rushing to various places.
I finally walked through the chaotic streets and traffic jams, and hurried to the stage when I came to the press conference. attracted the high-decibel screams of the fans at the scene, which made Xu Wen, who has always been very repulsive to the dense crowd, Zou sat on the chair prepared in advance on the stage with a frown, and accepted all kinds of strange questions from the host. Zhou Xi seemed to notice something, patted him on the shoulder behind Xu Wen, and then lowered his head and whispered in his ear: "No big problem, you don't need to sign the process today, we can leave after the host interview." ”
Hearing this, Xu Wen grinned with relief and faced the camera with a professional smirk......
The interview was ongoing, as the host was ready to end with the questions asked by the fans on behalf of the fans. A loud scream suddenly erupted from the crowd of onlookers, and the originally crowded crowd suddenly dispersed. Xu Wen and Zhou Xi, who were standing on the stage, began to look into the distance, only to see a circle naturally vacant in the middle of the bustling crowd. In the middle of the circle was lying a man who was pressed to the ground by a woman, and in the next second, the plasma like a fountain splashed from a certain place on the man's body in all directions, and the people who were already frightened were completely awakened by this scene and ran away in a panic.
With the undulating screams, Zhou Xi's blank head walked to Xu Wen's side in a buzzing sound, and cold sweat began to break out in his palms. When Xu Wen accurately grabbed Zhou Xi's right hand, Zhou Xi discovered that the hands of the two people were already extremely cold. Without waiting for the two people who were full of blank minds to react, there were only two of them standing on the stage of Nuoda, which was particularly eye-catching.
The woman who pressed the man looked up, her messy hair stained with blood, dripping blood continuously. Through the bright light, the man who was originally blocked was instantly illuminated. The torn clothes hung on the disemboweled chest like a blooming and dyed lily, and the heart stopped with the last beat.
"Mr. Xu, this way."
The two of them pretended to be at the same time, and saw that the driver standing under the stage was waving to them, and his anxious appearance continued to shake with the flesh on his body. The woman also seemed to hear the driver's call, like a mad dog that had lost her mind, and began to run towards Xu Wen and the others who were still standing on the stage. Seeing this, Xu Wen hurriedly pulled Zhou Xi off the stage, and the driver hurriedly led the way to leave from the safe passage.
On the way, Zhou Xi stared at his mobile phone and did not receive a call from the organizer. But after all, the stakes are very high, and it is not good for Zhou Xi to call back and urge Party B to give an answer. The three of them were silent along the way, and the radio in the car suddenly interjected the news from the light-hearted music.
[Today, a riot broke out in Andong City. Numerous thugs attacked passers-by in the streets, resulting in 10 serious injuries and 16 minor injuries. Please refrain from wandering around the streets......]
Xu Wen and Zhou regretted that the two dragged their tired bodies home, and raised their eyes to look at the clock hanging on the wall. The time was just one o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhou Xi opened the medicine box from the cabinet under the TV without stopping, took out the medicine jar with the font 'bipolar disorder' written on it, and handed it to Xu Wen.
"Eat two slices and go straight to your room to sleep."
Xu Wen took the medicine jar and got up and went back to the room. Suffering from bipolar disorder has always been known only to Zhou Xi. She knew better than Xu Wen himself when it was time to take this pill, and she would even prepare it silently without him knowing.
I don't know if it's a problem with the pills, but today's pills seem to be onset much faster than usual. In the drowsiness, all kinds of noisy sounds came from the living room. When I was about to get up to check, I was imprinted on the bed by the weight of my body and couldn't move, so I fell asleep again.
Xu Wen opened his eyes again, leaned on the edge of the bed and gradually woke up his sleeping body, raised his eyelids to look straight ahead, and was instantly awakened by the scene in front of him. I saw Zhou Xi holding a kitchen knife in both hands, shining the blade of the knife extremely dazzling through the dim light. Zhou Xi stood up from the corner and took a step forward as if relieved, his bare feet stained with blood that had long since dried. The clock in the room was pointing to seven o'clock, which meant that during the five hours that Xu Wen fell asleep, Zhou Xi didn't know what to go through.
"You...... What's wrong? Xu Wen's concern made Zhou Xi put down the knife in his hand and pounced on Xu Wen like a weak leg.
In the quiet and dim room, in addition to the sudden sound of sirens outside the window, there was also the cry of relief from Zhou Xi's throat.
