Chapter 1: Distress in the middle of the night

Next Chapter

"I'm revising the manuscript, so you can get off work first." Dong Yiyi looked at the numbers near midnight at the bottom of the computer screen, and said to the two interns behind him who had yawned repeatedly.

"Okay, sister, then we'll go first. You still have to pay attention to safety when you go home alone at night, and now this Sassi is in a mess. ”

"Well, you guys should be safe, too. There are still three months to go back to China, and then stick to it. Dong Yiyi's fingers moved rapidly on the keyboard, and her eyes never left the screen for a moment.

When the two people behind him left, and the two warm lights went out, Yiyi felt a slight coolness behind her.

Dong Yiyi is a fairly well-known reporter. At first, I was messing around in the entertainment gossip section, and I had a lot of spare money, but in recent years, I feel more and more that just walking on the red carpet violates the original intention of studying journalism, so I resolutely started to be a news reporter.

It is common to be on the front lines of disasters all year round. The mother at home was unwilling, and she fooled her daughter into resigning every day, Dong Yiyi was good, and directly asked to be sent to Saxi, the most turbulent area today, for half a year.

To get rid of the bitter sea of urging marriage and nagging, is that you don't even bother to answer the phone.

The last calibration is complete. Turn off your computer and go to the underground parking lot. Dong Yiyi pulled up the collar and kept pressing the car key in her hand, listening to the only friendly sound at this time to give herself courage.

The atmosphere was cold, and dim orange light bulbs hung overhead. Dust was flying everywhere, and the walls that were originally white had been written over the years with dirty and bloody words.

Suddenly, Dong Yiyi stopped, turned her head to look around, and she clearly heard that there seemed to be footsteps around.

Nothing, except for a few scrapped vehicles, eyelashes trembling involuntarily, almost trotting towards the front.

Needless to say, what kind of chaos Sassi is in now, the normal law has long been ineffective, and many gangsters have taken advantage of the chaos to rob, and all kinds of murders have occurred frequently. A girl's house walked in the middle of the night in a chaotic and empty place, and she was afraid.

Dong Yiyi didn't dare to look back, but the footsteps became more and more obvious and closer. There was a sudden blow to the shoulder, and the heavy smell of sweat on the man's body came and threw her directly to the ground.

There was no room for struggle under the suppression of the powerful force, and before the cry of pain could be spoken, it was pressed back to his throat by the coldness of the metal pressed against his temple.

"Where's the others?"

Ignoring doubts, he just shook his head vigorously.

"Where the hell are the others! What is your name! "Why is this voice so rough and ethereal? Like a demon from hell, his eyes can burst into red flames at any moment.

Except for shaking her head or shaking her head, Dong Yiyi didn't know anything, and she couldn't understand half a word.

The man behind him obviously has no reason and patience, "Okay, good." But it doesn't matter, when you die, he will come out naturally. ”

There is only one sentence I want to say, "It's my business". But she was afraid of death, and the term death was even more hideous and terrifying than that of people who had grown up in happiness and peace.

Suddenly, the heavy smell of blood behind him poured into Dong Yiyi's nasal cavity, and then the man behind him who oppressed him lost his strength. The weapon that had fallen next to her head was picked up and thrown aside.

Turning back in a trance, his elbow, which was already bleeding from the broken skin, was propped up on the dusty ground, and he staggered to his feet. The bottom of his eyes unconsciously filled with tears.

The person who rescued her, dressed in an expensive custom suit, didn't seem to be supposed to be in this dilapidated parking lot.

He looked at the bearded man on the ground with a bad face. looked up at Dong Yiyi, who was trembling, and without saying a word, took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, "It's okay." ”

Under the indifferent expression, the man's facial features are deep, his body is well-proportioned, his shoulders are wide and his waist is narrow, and his body exudes a cold and powerful aura and a faint pine perfume.

His deliberately slowed voice was as gentle as the warm sun. Dong Yiyi, who had just eased from the huge fright, unconsciously approached this iceberg.

The man took the car keys from her and said, "Where to go, I'll send you." He seemed to have an intuition, didn't ask much, and walked straight to Dong Yiyi's car.

"I'm fine, I can go back by myself." Dong Yiyi trotted over, "Thank you for saving my husband, I can really do it." ”

He didn't stop until he opened the co-pilot's door and watched Dong Yiyi sit in.

Dong Yiyi didn't seem to hear it wrong, and the moment the car door closed, the man who met for the first time muttered clearly.

"It's a big night, what kind of fame."

She turned her head to look at the man in the driver's seat. That's right, it is absolutely impossible to know such a man who is an invisible poor person and pays off his credit card every month like cutting meat.

But what he said just now was like a joke between old acquaintances. If he really knows, why doesn't he say it directly!

"Where to go."

"Xu Colson."

"When you get home, call the police, and contact the embassy."

"Hmm." Dong Yiyi was tightly wrapped in a suit jacket, like a little white rabbit, and looked at the unknown man uneasily, "What's your name, we, haven't we met?" I don't have a good memory. ”

"I haven't seen it, I have a good memory." He pushed back with a word, but his thumb rubbed the steering wheel uncontrollably.

The rented house is not far from the unit, and no one speaks during the 10-minute drive. Until downstairs, Dong Yiyi hurriedly thanked him for his life-saving grace and trotted upstairs. When he got to the door of the house and looked out of the window, he hadn't left yet.

"Why don't you leave?" Dong Yiyi muttered in a low voice, and threw the bag to the sofa, "Should I invite someone to dinner?" The suit on his shoulder slipped off, and then he suddenly realized and rushed downstairs.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sir, your clothes."

Dong Yiyi didn't expect that this person was really waiting for clothes. When he got his clothes, he turned and walked away, not even saying goodbye. It's as if we've never met, and I don't want to know myself. "But, sir, I haven't had time to thank you yet!"

Dong Yiyi came back to her senses and trotted to catch up. "I can't repay you for saving my life, I always have to thank you."

The man turned around, his eyes wandering indifferently, "If you really want to thank me, don't say that I killed him." Go home early later. ”

"Huh?" Why, it's a good thing to be brave in the face of righteousness. Before Dong Yiyi could ask, the man stepped into the back seat of a business car opposite and disappeared.
