After repairing the car, it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening, and Yu Fan and Guo Na continued to embark on the journey back to XA City.

Yu Fan quipped: "It's still too late, I said that we will return to our home within this year." ”

Guo Na smiled at Fan, and then looked at the starry sky outside the window: "The sky on the last day of the year is so beautiful." ”

Yu Fan glanced at Guo Na, and from the side, the quiet face under the neat bangs was very cute, and with the moonlight outside the window, it looked even more cute.

Yu Fan made a pun: "Yes, it's so beautiful." ”

"Brother Yu, I want to ask you a question." Guo Na spoke.

"Huh?" Yu Fan's voice was very soft, I don't know if it was because he was too tired in the past two days, or because after two days of getting along, Yu Fan's once cold heart for girls began to melt.

Guo Na: "Last night, you told Shi Wei that Shi Wei couldn't give you what you wanted, so what was it?" “

Yu Fan: "It's hard for me to explain this to you in a short period of time, so I'll tell you when I have a chance in the future." ”

Guo Na: "Brother Yu, you sell Guanzi again." ”

Yu Fan: "Again? Yu Fan raised his voice.

Guo Na immediately prevaricated embarrassedly: "Eh, I mean you were really brave last night, how can you be sure to use the discord method to take away the three people called by Shi Wei." And you're looking so closely. “

Yu Fan smiled bitterly: "Actually, I'm not sure, the psychological cold reading technique is not absolute, but in that unfavorable situation at that time, believe in your own experience and intuition, and give it a try." And isn't it a few glasses of wine to swallow and strengthen your courage? ”

Guo Na still felt strange: "We don't need to waste all this time with people like Shi Wei, why do you still have to have this dinner with them?" ”

Speaking of which, Yu Fan remembered the strange pattern again, tomorrow is the New Year's Day holiday, many administrative staff of the express company are resting, and I don't know if Cao Ben can find out which courier brought this piece of paper to the company and stuffed it into the bag that Yu Fan was going to leave the next day.

Guo Na saw that Yu Fan was in a daze, and did not answer the question, so he continued to ask: "Brother Yu? ”

Yu Fan came back to his senses: "Huh? Oh, nothing, just wanted to see what else he hadn't explained. ”

Guo Na looked at Yu Fan suspiciously. It's almost time to get to XA City, and the stars overhead are getting scarcer and thinner, obscured by the haze.

Guo Na sighed: "Hey, looking up at the sky, there are only a few stars in the darkness, and I always feel as if the darkness has defeated the light." ”

Yu Fan said earnestly: "No, I don't think so. You know, in the very beginning of the earth, the sky was originally dark, there were no stars, but now people can see a little bit of starlight, and I think it's the light that overcomes the darkness. ”

Guo Na nodded thoughtfully.

The road went very smoothly, there was still an hour before the New Year, there were almost no cars on the road, Yu Fan unexpectedly returned to XA City before the New Year, Yu Fan sent Guo Na home first, and he also returned to the community, parked the car, and unbuckled the seat belt, Yu Fan breathed a deep sigh of relief, took out his mobile phone, there were already a lot of blessing text messages on the mobile phone, Yu Fan flipped through it, and then sent a text message to Li Boring: "Arrive safely, thank you for the reminder." Happy New Year. “

Yu Fan dragged his tired body to the unit where he lived, walked to the door of the unit, and wanted to see if Ah Mao was waiting for him with anticipation, but unfortunately it was already past the "meal", and I don't know where Ah Mao is sleeping now, but he is not there.

Opening the house and entering the door, Yu Fan took off his shoes and looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was 12 o'clock in a few minutes. Yu Fan took out a dessert cake from the refrigerator, poured himself another glass of red wine, and stood on the balcony.

The New Year's Eve time has arrived, although it is late at night, but the lights in the community are brilliant, presumably the family members are reunited, Yu Fan is alone in a foreign land, and he can't help but feel a trace of envy.

"10, 9, 8, 7," a family in the community started the New Year's countdown to the window, and then this voice caused other people in the community to start shouting, "4, 3, 2, 1, oh ~~~~~~~~~" cheers filled the entire community, it was really lively.

In the distance, there are still people setting off fireworks, although it does not look like the official government set off, and it is not known whether such private fireworks will be fined, but this fireworks do decorate the festive atmosphere.

The residents of the community cheered: "Happy New Year~~~"

Yu Fan picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and saluted everything outside the window, as well as his lonely self: "Happy New Year." ”

After washing, Yu Fan lay on the bed.

The year is finally over.

Yu Fan is also very relaxed, no matter what happens this year, everything has passed, he feels that his body is getting heavier and heavier, more and more heavy, as if lying in the water, letting his body dive slowly, the moonlight in front of him is getting weaker and weaker, and slowly it is dark, Yu Fan falls asleep deeply.

I don't know how long it took, Yu Fan's body seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea, no longer diving, and gently touched the ground, so that Yu Fan gradually woke up from his trance, and Yu Fan smelled a strange smell.

It smells like blood, huh? Blood?

Yu Fan suddenly woke up and regained consciousness, only to see that he was standing in front of a desk, which was not his bedroom! Where is this? Yu Fan looked around curiously, this is an office, the office is very small, there is a filing cabinet inside, a desk, about 7 square meters, the door is half-hidden, there is no window, there is a blade exhaust fan in the upper right corner of the office wall, it rotates slowly, and the faint light penetrates through the gap of the exhaust fan, I don't know if it is day or night outside.

Yu Fan felt that his brain was very slow to react and his chest was very tight, where is this? How did I get here? Why is there no impression at all?

The oppressive atmosphere made Yu Fan unable to think so much, and the air was so stuffy that Yu Fan was very uncomfortable. Yu Fan carefully looked at the details around him again, the filing cabinet could not be opened, and he couldn't see the contents clearly through the faint light. There are some documents on the desk, Yu Fan picked them up, took them to the exhaust fan and looked at them by the light, with the words "human body", "organ", "fission" and so on faintly written, just when Yu Fan wanted to take a closer look at the details, there was a scream outside the office, it was a man's scream, accompanied by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Yu Fan was shocked into a cold sweat, which was suffocating, and he quietly put down the document bag. There was nothing to defend himself next to, so Yu Fan picked out two longer pens from the pen holder, one in his pocket and one in his hand, ready to use it for self-defense.

It is said that curiosity kills cats, but human beings can never resist the temptation of curiosity, which may be the instinct of human progress.

Yu Fan gently, step by step, moved towards the half-hidden office door.
