Wucheng, also known as the city of Yanzhou, is named after the Wujiang River. The Wu River, the largest tributary of the Qiantang River system, runs from east to west, traversing between the cities of Wu, mighty and mighty, for thousands of years, supporting the life and reproduction of this thousand-year-old city.

To the east of the Wujiang River, it is a financial center with many commercial buildings; To the west of the Wujiang River, it is a place of entertainment and leisure, with night gatherings and bathing centers everywhere; To the south of the Wujiang River is the villa area, which is where most of the rich and powerful live; To the north of the Wujiang River is the old city, where most of the migrant workers and various small traders gather, and it is also the most chaotic place in Wucheng.

This is a city wrapped in an industrial area, wrapped in all living beings, wrapped in all living beings.

A river, but it divides the city's three, six, nine and so on.

In the west of the city, there is a man and a dog, who walked out of a night club, full of vicissitudes of life.

This is a young man with a scar on his face, and this is a ragtag dog. He is not chasing his dreams in this desperate world, but in the search for the lost and distant soul.

However, he walked through many bars, nightclubs, and even bathing centers, but he didn't get the news he needed.

"Xiaoxi, where are you!"

The young man clenched his fists and roared in his heart, tormented and weak, and walked on his way to the edge of the river.

This is a diversion of the Wu River, the river has long been dry, only the willows on the bank, moving with the wind. The catkins flew, like thousands of unsolvable sorrows, flew over the young man's head and disappeared into the darkness.

One man and one dog, panicked and helpless, they were tired and stopped in front of a willow tree.

"It turns out that willow trees also bear fruit!" The young man looked at the flying flakes in the sky and muttered to himself, "But those who have to wait, but they can't wait!" The person you are looking for, but you don't know where! ”

He looked ahead, lost in the pain and desolation left by modern man. The dust in the sky, the dry river, and the stray dogs wagging their tails and begging for mercy around them. At the snap of a finger, dust peels off crumpled clothes and turns into a part of the mud on your shoes.

He lit a cigarette, and the red light illuminated his tired face, as if illuminating the pale journey ahead. So, he picked up the three-string acoustic guitar and took a step.

He had only taken two steps when his steps stopped, the smoke went out, and the road ahead was dark.

"The darkness is not scary, the scary thing is that there is no light to be seen!"

The young man leaned down and stroked the wild dog's head.

"Woohoo!"

"We are all orphans abandoned by this world, Xiao Jiajia is, I am, and so are you!"

From time to time, there are people passing on the street, three or three, twos and threes, when they see a person and a dog, they immediately retreat, cover their noses, and make a detour.

"It stinks!"

"Does it stink?"

The young man lowered his head, kept his face calm, stroked the head of the miscellaneous dog, and mocked the passers-by as if he had not heard it.

The breeze is not dissociated, only to see the foolish and laughing at passers-by.

In this world, there are abandoned people everywhere. Most people think of them as humble and worthless, like weeds on the side of the road, but they are a real part of the world. It is their humility that can set off those souls who think they are noble and dirty!

"Huan'er, if you want revenge, come at me, if Xiaoxi ......" The young man stood up and stared, "Ask me to come to Wucheng, but don't tell me where you are, is this deliberately torturing me?" I can't find you anymore, there's only one way to go! ”

The young man looked across the river, east of Wucheng, where there was a brightly lit building, solemn and solemn.

"Public Security Bureau!" The young man said in a low voice, "If it really comes to that point, I don't believe it, the Public Security Bureau doesn't have your data file!" ”

After a moment of silence, a man and a dog disappeared in front of the willow tree. When he reappeared, the young man with his miscellaneous dog had already come to the old town of Jiangbei.

It's a chaotic area, with a man and a dog weaving through the crowd and the hustle and bustle. The young man felt a trace of irritability in his heart, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

"It's finally quiet!"

Crossing the street, the youth came to a tree-lined path.

Hundreds of meters ahead, there is a red light flashing, it is a hotel and inn.

"Let's go, let's find a place to settle down and take a shower! I'll get you something to eat! ”

"Woohoo!"

One person and one dog, follow the same steps, and go forward.

"Little brother, do you beat your back?"

As the young man walked, a voice sounded in his ears, and when he looked sideways, a woman with heavy makeup was waving to him.

It was a low building, with the roller shutter ajar, and in it sat several women, with colorful hair and little clothing, sitting on a sofa, and in front of them, there was only a television.

On the glass door, there are words for massage and pedicure, and there are also two women sitting at the door, waving to passers-by from time to time.

"Massage?" The young man frowned, shook his head slightly, and walked forward. He had barely taken two steps before he paused, thought for a moment, and then turned and walked towards the half-open shop.

"A hundred dollars at a time, do you want to do it? Seeing that you are young, give you a discount, and others will charge one hundred and fifteen! As soon as she arrived at the door, the woman who had just greeted her spoke.

"Do what?" The young man shook his head.

"Yo! What else to pretend! Brother, come to this kind of place, you won't know what to do! If you want to do it, come in quickly, and don't hang around the door! ”

"I'm here to ask you about someone!" The young man took out a few pieces of money from his pocket and handed them to the woman.

"Alright! You have a dog with you, and it's not convenient to do whatever you want! The woman spread her hands, "For the sake of money, you ask!" ”

"Have you ever heard of the name Huan'er?" The young man asked in a deep voice.

"Huan'er?" The woman thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "I haven't heard of it!" ”

"What about you? Ever heard of this guy? The woman turned to the people in the room.

"Nope!"

The young man nodded, thought for a moment, took out his mobile phone, and flipped out a photo.

In the photo, it is a beautiful and refined girl, she is wearing a lace dress, holding a blue and white checkered flower handkerchief, wearing a pair of silver rings, generous, quiet and elegant, this is a girl from the Yi family.

"Have you seen her?" The young man handed the woman a photo of his mobile phone.

"Nope!" The woman glanced at it and affirmed.

"Alright! Thank you! The young man's eyes showed a look of disappointment, and he also knew that looking for it like this was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, but he had no better way at the moment.

From the night club, to the bathing center, to this so-called massage shop, he used this way, I don't know how many shops he walked through, how many people he asked, but he still found nothing.

"Looking in the dark?" The young man thought of the middle-aged man in the suit and leather shoes who showed him the way, laughed at himself, and turned away.

"Xiaoxi!"

He took out a pair of silver rings from his pocket, held them in his hands, and frowned.

"Little brother!"

As the young man walked, a soft voice came from behind. He turned around and saw a woman running out of the "massage parlor" and shouting at him.

"Woohoo!" The miscellaneous dog barked a few times and stopped the woman.

"Anything else?"

"Can you leave a contact information for you, I can help you inquire, if there is news of Huan'er, I will inform you!" This is an extremely beautiful woman, at a glance, Chu Chu is moving, and through a dog, whispered to the young man.

"Oh?" The young man raised his eyebrows, "You know this person?" ”

"I've heard of her, but I don't know who she is, I can help you inquire!" The woman gritted her teeth and said, "However, I need money!" ”

"Where did you hear about her?"

"I used to be a beauty in a nightclub in the west of the city, and I have heard of this person, and many people call her Miss Huan'er! But it's been more than a year since the nightclub has been closed, and I ......" she lowered her head, her voice getting quieter and quieter.

"Do you know what you're doing?" The young man stared at her, "I said it clearly, this person is very dangerous, you rush to inquire, something happened, I am not responsible!" ”

"I know!" The woman nodded, her eyes gloomy, "But I can't help it, my brother is in the hospital and needs money, otherwise...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have done this......"

"It's none of my business what you do, don't tell me so much!" The young man waved his hand, "Well, if you find out where she has been in and out recently, or find out her identity, where she lives, and what she does, I will give you 10,000!" ”

"Ten thousand is not enough!" The woman shook her head, "And I can't guarantee that I can find out anything, it's been too long, I was temporarily transferred from another night club to sit on the stage, and I only saw her occasionally, this thing sounds difficult, you also said, it's dangerous!" ”

"Have you seen her?" The young man took out his mobile phone, flipped out a photo again, stepped forward, and asked, "Does it look like this person in the photo?" ”

"Yes, it's exactly the same!" The woman took a serious look, "However, she was wearing red clothes at the time!" It's completely different from the human temperament in the photo! ”

"That's it!" The young man's eyes flashed, "This is my phone number, if you can really find out a little news, notify me immediately, as for the money, I will consider it!" ”

"I only need 50,000! My brother is going to have surgery! The woman glanced at the phone number and knew it.

"If you can bring me useful news, it's not impossible!"

"Good! You wait for my call! ”

"Remember, it's good to keep this matter in your heart, don't make a noise, it's not good for you!"

"I know......" the woman paused, "what do you call you?" ”

"Wu Zhiyuan!"

"My name is Liu Mengran......"

"Liu Mengran, good name, it's a pity......" Wu Zhiyuan watched her run into the hut with flashing red lights, a little distracted.

"Xiaoxi, you have to wait for me......"

Wu Zhiyuan clenched the silver ring in his hand and walked towards a hotel......
