The gloomy sky is a bit depressing, and dragonflies flying low at altitude are a sign of impending rainstorms. The man irritated and threw the cigarette he had only smoked a few puffs to the ground, stomped it out with his foot, and drank the cold beer in his hand in another sip. But the boredom in his chest still made him breathless.

"Damn bastard!" The man himself didn't know who he was cursing, it could be himself or anyone random around him.

Suddenly, a middle-aged woman came up to him and somehow bumped into him, and the man's body leaned back.

"Fuck, you don't have long eyes when you walk?" Maybe it was because he found an outlet to vent, and the man suddenly gushed out with a puff of anger, and stretched out his hand and pushed the middle-aged woman hard.

The middle-aged woman was not easy to mess with, and immediately pointed at the man's nose with one hand and the other and scolded: "What's wrong with touching it?" Are you made of glass? How delicate the body is, what are you talking about without this noble life? Litter! ”

In just a few words, the man felt that he was being scolded, and the scenes in the dream seemed to really appear in front of him. Without even thinking or hesitating, he took out a switchblade from his trouser pocket and snapped it out of its scabbard, before the middle-aged woman could come to her senses. The man had already pounced on the other party's collar like a chicken and stabbed again and again, the middle-aged woman's screams gradually weakened, and he felt the clothes wet on his body by the other party's hot blood again, sticky to his skin, and there seemed to be blood foam at the corners of his mouth.

The exhilaration, which he had just stabbed, was instantly replaced by irritability, and he only felt as if his body was filled with a strange anger and was about to explode. The man just feels that his whole body is so good, pinch it, pinch it! A voice shouted in his ear, and the man looked down at the switchblade that was still stained with blood in his hand, and this time, without any thought or hesitation, he slammed it into his stomach!

It's so comfortable... Finally... There is not so much gas anymore... The man lay on the ground, letting the wound on his stomach gurgle and bleed, but a smile of relief appeared on his face. The frightened cries of the passers-by around him, the shrill sound of the police car seemed to be getting farther and farther away, only everything in the dream in front of him was getting more and more real...

Fang Rui struggled to hang a plastic bag of canned cat food in his left hand on his right hand carrying a heavy bag of chicken, and then fumbled for the door key in his pocket. Because of his high myopia, Fang Rui couldn't see where the keyhole was in the dim corridor at all. It took a long time to open the door with difficulty.

Philip occupied Fang Rui's bed and fell asleep in a ball, not waking up at all. Fang Rui put the canned cat food next to Philip's rice bowl. Then he put the chicken he bought on the table. I don't know why, Philip's appetite has been up to a lot recently, and his small body has to eat the rations of nearly three adult cats in one meal. Fortunately, Fang Rui has a job now, otherwise he wouldn't be able to support this little guy. Even so, Fang Rui felt that half of his monthly salary had turned into cat food and entered Philip's stomach. Moreover, the little guy not only ate more and slept more, basically fell asleep after eating, and continued to eat when he woke up. Fang Rui wanted to talk to it while it was eating, but he was disgusted, but Philip said that he wanted to eat without saying a word, and he didn't care about Fang Rui at all. This hurt Fang Rui very much, and he could only gnaw on the bread beside him.

I looked at my watch, and it was just over 6 o'clock in the evening. Since returning from Lop Nur, Old Man Luo took Bai Jingjing to report the situation above, leaving Fang Rui and Hou Xiaoguo in the store. Although Hou Xiaoguo is a little Zhengtai, he is definitely a cool little Zhengtai, and he doesn't talk much, and his favorite thing is to bow his head and play with his mobile phone. When Old Man Mu usually has nothing to do, he is basically a door and does not appear. The book spirits in the library couldn't speak human words, and at most they circled around Fang Rui. So Fang Rui hardly talked to him at work these days, and after finishing his work, he said hello to Xiaoguo who was sitting behind the cashier and went home.

I thought I could talk to Philip for a while, but I didn't expect Philip to ignore him at all. So Fang Rui has been bored and a little crazy lately, and he is even willing to chat with the female ghost in the toilet pool. Even the female ghost can't speak, but at least she still takes care of Fang Rui. So, one person and one ghost just chatted like this, and the female ghost would nod in affirmation, shake her head in denial, and shrug her shoulders to say she didn't know. For some reason, the female ghost doesn't have a very complete memory of her previous life, and it seems that some important content has been lost. But even so, Fang Rui also talked about some simple things, such as the female ghost is not from this place, she seems to have been dead for a long time, and she only remembers that one relative is her sister. Fang Rui was more interested in how the female ghost died, but unfortunately the female ghost didn't seem to have any memory of this at all, no matter how Fang Rui asked, he replied to him with a helpless shrug.

Tonight, Fang Rui is still going to continue to chat with the female ghost, anyway, he is idle, he is idle, and he should play a detective game. Just as Fang Rui was about to call out the female ghost, he found that the mobile phone rang, and when he took it out, it was actually Bai Jingjing, who had not heard from her for more than a month.

"Master, you're finally back!?" Fang Rui asked happily.

"Well, I didn't expect this report to be so troublesome, and it seems that the above is very interested in our last trip to Lop Nur. Grandpa Luo was even left at the main store, and I came back first. Bai Jingjing explained.

"Why are you interested?" Fang Rui asked curiously.

"I don't know. I advise you not to think too much, we will know what we should know, and it is better to ask less if we don't. Bai Jingjing instructed Fang Rui.

"Okay, I won't ask." Fang Rui also shrugged his shoulders like a female ghost.

"Okay, no nonsense, you should be at home now, come out quickly, I'll wait for you in KFC in Jinyang Plaza." Bai Jingjing said.

"Does Master want to invite me to dinner? Great, I've only nibbled on one loaf of bread, and I'm not full yet! Fang Rui scratched his hair happily, he didn't expect Bai Jingjing to take such good care of himself.

"The beauty you think!" Bai Jingjing yelled on the phone, "Just know how to eat!" Get me out to work! You are limited to arrive within a quarter of an hour, or I will tell Grandpa Luo to let him deduct your salary this month!" After speaking, Bai Jingjing cut off the phone.

"If you don't invite it, don't invite it, why are you so fierce? No wonder I don't have a boyfriend for more than 200 years! Fang Rui muttered while obediently picking up his wallet and walking out quickly, he didn't want to be deducted from his salary!

Almost by running, Fang Rui barely arrived at the KFC Bai Jingjing said within fifteen minutes. Sure enough, Bai Jingjing was holding two family buckets and eating by himself, and in Fang Rui's pitiful eyes, Bai Jingjing finally handed him a hamburger.

"Woo. Woo. I knew it... Master is the best! Fang Rui patted his ass very doggedly, while gobbling up the hamburger.

"Let's eat and go!" Bai Jingjing spit out the last chicken bone in her mouth, wiped her hands, and pulled Fang Rui out of KFC.

"Master, what kind of work is it?" Fang Rui asked.

"Did you know that there have been two murders around here recently?" Bai Jingjing asked.

"You know, it's on the TV news and in the newspapers. The first was a young man who stabbed a middle-aged woman to death in the street in this square, as if the two had a quarrel just because the middle-aged woman accidentally hit him, and finally the young man used the knife. The second case was a young mother, because there was a difference with her mother-in-law in the way she was taking care of the child, and she quarreled, but in a fit of rage, the young mother actually hacked her mother-in-law to death with a kitchen knife. What's going on with young people now? So angry? Can't you just talk well? Kill people at every turn, it's too angry! Fang Rui was a little old-fashioned, but he didn't know that he was also a young man.

"Let's look into these two cases." Bai Jingjing said.

"Why are these two cases being investigated? Didn't the murderer catch it quickly? Could it be that the books of these two murderers have been contaminated? Fang Rui asked.

"The bookstore's operation room can sense contaminated life books within a radius of dozens of kilometers and point them and remind them, which is usually the basis for my foreign affairs tasks. This time, the operation room did not give an early warning, indicating that the people involved in the two cases were not contaminated. So theoretically speaking, these two cases should be murders in ordinary human society and do not need our bookstore to intervene, but the above suddenly asked me to investigate, which is also quite strange! Bai Jingjing explained.

"However, these two cases have been closed, and the murderer has been caught and locked up, so what do you want to investigate? It can't be someone else, right? No, the first case was a murder on the street, and many witnesses couldn't be mistaken. In the second case, it is said that it was a neighbor who found and called the police, and there were several! Fang Rui has been idle lately, and he has watched a lot on TV, and has made detailed reports and interviews on these two cases in the evening news and a legal program.

"Before I came back, I also deliberately checked these two cases on the Internet, and saw a statement, that is, these two murderers were both good-natured gentlemen and angry daughters-in-law in the eyes of others before they were killed. One is a good old man who will agree with everything others say, and the other is a good daughter-in-law who does not dare to resist her mother-in-law and tolerates everything. Why do you suddenly burst out and kill people? Bai Jingjing asked rhetorically.

"It's been suppressed for a long time, it naturally erupts, and the rabbit is in a hurry and bites!" Fang Rui said disapprerovingly.

"That's too much of a contrast!" Bai Jingjing doesn't seem to be able to accept this kind of setting of a good old man suddenly becoming bad.

Fang Rui glanced at Bai Jingjing and then looked at the crowd of people coming and going in the square, and after a few seconds of silence, he said softly: "Master, you are not human, and you may never know how complicated people's hearts will be. You and them seem to be ordinary, but who knows if there will be a moment in their hearts when they will have the idea of snatching, beating or even killing? It's just that some people are pulled back by their inner reason, and the reason why they don't do bad things may not be because they don't have a conscience, but because they don't have the courage to do this, they are afraid of rules and laws, and they will be caught. Man is actually an animal, and the nature of animals is to plunder and kill. It's just that the laws of society don't allow people to do this. Of course, this is what distinguishes people from animals. However, I have always believed that human nature is evil, so there is nothing particularly surprising about a good-natured person suddenly killing someone. ”

Bai Jingjing looked at Fang Rui in front of her with some consternation, what he said made her shudder a little, she had always thought that Fang Rui was stupid and cute, and it was shit luck to be selected by Grandpa Luo as the host of the 'mix'. But for a moment just now, Bai Jingjing seemed to understand a little. However, this idea was fleeting, and Bai Jingjing's shot was a hand knife that slashed Fang Rui's head.

"Oh, Master, how do you beat someone?" Fang Rui touched his head and was aggrieved.

"I'm not human, but I've lived much longer than you, who hasn't seen it? You want to teach me a lesson? Bai Jingjing yelled at Fang Rui, "Finish the hamburger quickly, there is still work to do!" ”

"Oooh!" Fang Rui hurriedly stuffed the last bit of burger into his mouth, looking like a hamster hoarding food.

Bai Jingjing walked towards the subway without looking back, and being able to have such an apprentice was also a debt in her previous life. Fang Rui hurriedly chased after him, but the words he said just now still echoed in his mind, these were actually the words that Fang Rui's grandmother had warned him when he was very young, but Fang Rui couldn't understand it at that time but remembered it deeply.
