Chapter 20: Relics

Today is May 20, 2007, I am Ruan Duong, and since I took Ruan Duong to my home, I don't have time to go to the hospital to see Ru Duong anymore. According to Jiang Nan's statement, it should be Gao Fei taking care of Ru Hua in the hospital now. Although I am not very happy in my heart, I don't seem to have any reason or position to oppose it, after all, the relationship between Gao Fei and Ru Hua was originally very intimate, and it is natural for Gao Fei to take care of Ru Hua.

But why is it for me to take care of Ruan Yang, it's really difficult for some strong people, I'm a 9-to-5 office worker, and I'm alone, I originally wanted to find a woman to take care of, but now I have to take care of another man, or a disabled man, or a disabled man who is likely to be wanted, every time I think of this, I have a chill down my spine, and I can't sit still.

Fortunately, after Ruan Yang moved here, Xiaoxiao was entrusted by Zhang Yan to take time to come over every night to check on Ruan Yang's wounds. Whether it really needs to be checked every day, I doubt it. For me, having a smile can resolve the embarrassment of two men being alone. Xiaoxiao is a little cute and enthusiastic, which always gives people a feeling of a little warm sun in winter. It's the effect of standing in a sheltered place and basking in the sun on a snowy afternoon.

In addition to "ward rounds", Xiaoxiao will do all kinds of small things she can help with, such as tidying up the room, ironing clothes, etc., and helped make dinner yesterday. Ruan Yang was particularly surprised by Xiaoxiao's excessive enthusiasm, but he just stared at his vigilant eyes, looked at him in surprise, and didn't say anything. As for me, frankly, it feels pretty good.

Xiaoxiao is going to change Ruan Yang's dressing today, I don't know if I can continue to ask her to make some dinner, and then finish eating together before leaving, otherwise Ruan Yang and I will stay at home, and I will feel like staying in the detention center and waiting for interrogation. Of course, I didn't actually go to the detention center.

Just thinking about it, I had already walked to the door of the apartment, and just saw Xiaoxiao negotiating with the security guard, so I hurriedly walked over and called her. I live in a single apartment under closed management, and since everyone is basically not at home during the day, the security is very strong in terms of anti-theft. In addition, there was a murder in an urban village some time ago, and it is said that the person who died was a policeman, and the guns were unloaded. So the security guard brother has been extra vigilant recently.

"You're back, great, I'm explaining to the security guard." When Xiaoxiao saw me, she immediately stretched her brows.

"I'm sorry, I went to buy some food, and I delayed a bit. Why don't you call me? I nodded at the security guard, who swiped the card and let us in.

"I'm afraid you haven't gotten off work yet, thinking that you just need to ring the doorbell when you get there." Xiaoxiao followed me and entered the elevator together.

"Next time you call me before you leave, so you don't have to wait outside, can you stay for dinner today?"

"Well, yes, those dishes were just bought and waiting for me to make them, right?" Xiaoxiao looked at the bag in my hand and said with a smile.

"I'm so embarrassed to be found out by you, I'm not very good at cooking myself, and Ruan Yang is not very convenient to walk now."

"It's okay, I like to do it anyway, but I have to change the dressing for Ruan Yang first, this time I changed the dressing, and the stitches can be removed in a few days. According to Zhang Yan, the wound is not deep, so it should be able to recover quickly. ”

"That's good, otherwise I'll always trouble you to come, and I'm very sorry."

"Don't be so polite, I'll be fine after work anyway, come and see the two of you, so I can pass the time."

"You're welcome, I wish someone would cook and eat every day."

"It would be nice to find a girlfriend." After laughing and laughing, he suddenly realized that something was wrong again, and immediately began to apologize again:

"Excuse me!"

"Don't mind, Ru Jing will always wake up. By the way, there is a question, I don't know whether to ask it or not? ”

"You say?"

"Are you and Zhang Yan dating?" I don't know how I gossip like that, but I'm curious to ask.

"Huh? Jiang Nan told you? That guy. "It's a little embarrassing to smile." It's not like that, we just have a good relationship for the reason of work, and Zhang Yan should have someone he likes. ”

"But, you like Zhang Yan, right?" This is actually quite obvious, because when you like someone, your eyes will follow that person, and that state can't be hidden, especially with such a cute look like a smile.

"Huh? Is it so obvious? The smile was even more embarrassing.

"Well, Zhang Yan should know."

"I don't know about this," smiled and looked distressed.

"Go tell him, otherwise where are you going to spend time when Ruan Yang is well?" I actually think that Xiaoxiao must not be the type that Zhang Yan likes, otherwise how could I not know such an obvious show of favor and obsession. It's just that as long as Xiaoxiao doesn't confess, Zhang Yan may not have no way to refuse, or he won't seriously consider Xiaoxiao's goodness. So sometimes, you have to go one step further before you know if you're looking at the horizon or a cliff.

"You let me think about it." Xiaoxiao began to want to avoid and procrastinate, and I didn't want to say anything more. Everyone has a choice to make.

I pushed open the door, just in time to see Ruan Yang standing at the door, dressed neatly, about to go out, and saw me and Xiaoxiao coming back, and hesitated slightly.

"What are you doing?" I let Xiaoxiao in, locked the door, and asked him directly.

"Get out for a while?" Ruan Yang nodded with a smile.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll be back soon." Ruan Yang didn't intend to explain, it seemed that he was still on alert.

"Your wound hasn't healed yet...... "Halfway through the joke, he felt the nervousness of anger and put away the rest of the words.

"Xiaoxiao, please prepare dinner first." I gestured to Xiaoxiao, and then dragged Ruan Yang to the study.

I dragged Ruan Yang to the study, and Ruan Yang forcibly walked like a normal person, and his movements became more stiff. He walked in slowly, leaning against his desk.

"Ruan Yang, you're a fugitive suspect, right? Although you are not publicly wanted, there must be police looking for you everywhere, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been hiding in the hospital, and now you're hiding with me, would you? And if I'm not mistaken, it's not just the police who will look for you again, Jiang Nan and Zhang Yan told me that there was any misunderstanding, and when you get better, you will find a way to prove yourself. Since the two of them can trust you, so can I. But you know your situation, right? ”

"Clear!"

"So what are you doing now? Go and turn yourself in? Go tell those who are chasing you that you are hiding here? ”

"Go get something."

"What's that? Where to get it? ”

"A watch." The way Ruan Yang spoke showed that he had made a decision, and it was a decision that could not be refuted.

"Ruan Yang, don't you think it's necessary for you to explain it to me?"

"Knowing too much isn't necessarily a good thing for you, especially since I might be wanted."

"I want to know." I looked at Ruan Yang firmly.

"I'm a police officer."

"I know."

"Now a murder suspect."

"I guessed it."

"Two days ago, the news reported a case of a policeman who was killed in an urban village."

"I've heard that."

"I was at the scene of the crime."

"So they suspect you killed the policeman?"

"His name is Wang Jie, and he left a watch for me before he died, which should be related to the murderer. But I was hunted down and didn't get it. ”

"So you're going to get your watch now."

"It's been more than a week, and I'm afraid of being picked up later."

"Won't there be a police or other person waiting for you to go back?" Isn't it all like this in movies, I feel like my life is just as happy as in the movies.

"There may be, but that's the only clue at the moment."

"You give me the address, and I'll go for you." If Ruan Yang dies before he clears his suspicion, I will really harbor the suspect, and more importantly, how can I explain it to Ru Jing.

"You're going? You know what might happen, right? ”

"As long as no one knows that you live with me, and we can't get along with each other, it should be safe for me to get it."

Ruan Yang looked at me, thought for a while, and nodded.

"Okay, then you pay attention to safety!"

"Give me the address, I'll go now." Since you have decided to do it, it is better to act quickly, and you can't miss the opportunity to help Ruan Yang clear her suspicion like she missed to keep Ru Jing.

Ruan Yang wrote me the address he remembered, and drew a map of the urban village based on his impressions. Then I went out with his repeated reminders to pay attention to safety. Before leaving, he also told Xiaoxiao to change his medicine first, so that he didn't have to wait for me to have dinner together. Xiaoxiao watched me go out with a worried face, she should have sensed something, but she was careful not to ask.

I took the sketch that Ruan Yang had drawn, went out, called a taxi, went to the nearby shopping mall according to Ruan Yang's words, then turned around for a while, then changed the door and came out to call a car, find a restaurant, go in for dinner, and then call a car to go to the designated urban village. The purpose of this was to prevent me from being followed, and after all these days, I never thought about it. No wonder Zhang Yan was in a hurry to arrange for Ruan Yang to be discharged from the hospital after the man in black visited.

I got into another taxi and sat in the passenger seat, looking through the window at the city at night, with bright lights and people coming and going. Compared with the tense and busy during the day, it feels like it is really alive now, and it has a pleasant respite, a sad lament, and a violent roar. During the day it is like an alert wolf, with its ears pricked up, its tail between its legs, its back straight, and its eyes on its prey or hunter. And at night, he suddenly becomes a pet dog, sometimes gentle like a golden retriever, sometimes naughty like Erha, sometimes gorgeous like a lady, as long as you reach out to touch, you can't help but spoil it.

The taxi stopped at the gate of the urban village that Nguyen Duong said, and I looked at the time, it was already 10:30 p.m., the street lights were half off, and the remaining light was chaotic and shone on this dilapidated neighborhood. I walked along the main road, according to the sketch drawn by Nguyen Duong, walked through a few buildings, and came to a laneway, the lights were still much darker than the main street, but I could still see that there was a rectangular cabinet at the end of the road, I think it should be here. There was no one on the whole road, probably because of the murder, so people would try to avoid going in.

I looked around and looked at the residential buildings on both sides, and some of the windows were still lit, so if anyone looked at me, they would probably be able to see me. I pulled out my phone and dialed Xiaoxiao's number, hoping that she was still in the apartment. The call was connected:

"Xiao Xia?" I can hear a little nervousness.

"Are you still at my house?"

"Yes, we just had dinner and the medicine has been changed, when will you come back?"

"You give Nguyen Yang the phone"

"Okay, you wait."

"Is it there?" Ruan Yang's voice came.

"Well, it's at the intersection, I'll walk over now." I turned on the speakerphone, held the phone in my hand, and reconfirmed the surrounding environment, except for a few people who returned late, there was no one on the road, and as for the people upstairs, I couldn't avoid it.

I walked into the alleyway step by step, the sound of my heartbeat had already covered my footsteps, and the appearance of the vending machine was becoming clearer and clearer, and I might have stood in the position where Wang Jie was killed...........
