Chapter 41: Answers (I)

"Willow ...... Willow Springs. "She called out my name, so clearly in the noisy amusement that for a moment the disco noises seemed to disturb me no longer.

"Girl, do you know me......" I looked at her carefully, could it be Mo Lan? But it's not quite like it. Mo Lan was wearing an exotic color dress that day, with a variety of elegant decorations on her head, with a moth eyebrow, a clever smile, and beautiful eyes, just like a white orchid, and a beautiful and refined temperament between the eyebrows made me not busy, but the woman standing in front of me at the moment was dressed very charmingly, with black silk stockings and a short red skirt, and a shiny little leather jacket, with thick eyeliner, and a hint of gorgeous redness at the corners of the eyes, plus a thick layer of foundation on the face, The whole person looks exactly like the thousands of live broadcast girls on the Internet, which makes me how can I tell her real appearance.

And when I think about it, I don't think it's right, Mo Lan is at least a descendant of God, how can she be so decadent and molested by a young man who is less than twenty, this is also ridiculous.

"Of course you know you, but it's strange to say, after so many years, my sister has seen thousands of men, some of them can remember a rough idea, and some of them have no impression at all. But I can still remember you clearly, not only your appearance, but even your name. The woman laughed happily, she shook her hair, her eyes had a sense of belonging after a long absence, and she gently pinched my face with her hand, which looked particularly kind. It seems that it is really related to you, pure little brother. ”

"Mo Lan, you are really Mo Lan." I exclaimed. "Finally found you."

The woman sighed in despair. "Is there any other woman here who knows you? You're really sad, it seems that you've had a lot of experience over the years. ”

"No, it's because you've really changed so much, you weren't like this before, you didn't wear such heavy makeup at that time, and you wouldn't dress so charming." I don't know if it's okay to say this, but it's like a fish in my throat if I don't say it. "Moreover, you didn't have such a heavy fat powder on you back then, and you really don't look like a god now, but like a fallen girl."

"Really? Ha ha. Mo Lan smiled faintly, and the smile was a little sour and a little contemptuous. I've really changed a lot, I've been drunk and dreaming all day long, having fun with different men every day, and I've forgotten what I was like back then. Actually, when I met you, I was already hanging out in a bar, but only occasionally, but now this seems to be my second home. Willow Springs. Don't you like me like this? ”

I don't know if it's because of her drunkenness or if her personality has changed dramatically, but every word she says now makes people feel extremely frivolous and careless. "Mo Lan! Don't talk like that anymore...... How can you be so decadent, you are a seed of God. ”

"Seed of God...... Idiot! The Seed of God is just a burden to me now, fuck the Seed of God. "Mo Lan actually said dirty words, which is extremely incommensurate with her image of a delicate woman." If there is an afterlife, I would rather be a mortal. ”

How could she suddenly say this, I vaguely felt that something was unusual, something unknown must have happened to Mo Lan. "Mo Lan, what's wrong with you? Is something wrong? ”

Mo Lan raised her finger and made a shushing gesture to her red lips, motioning for me to stop talking. "I'm going to take off my makeup first, and then we'll go somewhere a little quieter."

With that, Mo Lan ran to the bathroom of the bar, and I waited for her in my seat.

I glanced at my watch, it was already a little closer, in the noisy environment of a bar, it is easy to lose track of the time, and before you know it, the night is already deep, and it seems that it is indeed time to leave.

After a while, Mo Lan walked out of the bathroom, took off the complicated fat powder, she returned to the elegant her, the black silk stockings and the small leather jacket were also taken off, and now she only had a pure red dress on her. "When I see my old acquaintance today, I'll be my former self again."

Mo Lan dragged me out of the bar in a hurry, the courtyard was a little deserted at the moment, the carnival dancers had disappeared without a trace, only a few old trees were still swaying in the wind under the vast moonlight, and the mournful birdsong announced the end of the day's party. I wonder if this small Lijiang has to experience these prosperity and loneliness every night?

The deep courtyard is quiet, the small courtyard is empty, and the cold anvil is intermittent and windy. Helplessly, the night is long and people are sleepless, and the number of voices and the moon is curtain.

As we walked through a few long, lonely alleys, as if struggling through a labyrinth, we saw a luxurious sports car parked under a dim street lamp, the red paint striking in contrast. Mo Lan took out the remote control from his handbag and pressed it gently, and the lights of the sports car turned on, like spitting out a flame.

"Is this your car?" I exclaimed, before I walked into the bar, I noticed this luxury sports car, in the warm moonlight, the body seemed to be plated with a faint halo, at that time I was still thinking about the rich man's car, I didn't expect it to be Mo Lan belonged, thinking that Mo Lan was still an ordinary jeep SUV six years ago. But when I thought about it, it seemed that something was wrong, Mo Lan had always lived in the Valley of Love, and at most she came out to look for the son of the orchid, and she didn't participate in the production and life of human beings at all, where did she get the money to buy such a luxury car. "How can you drive such a luxurious car."

"What's so strange about that?" Mo Lan laughed disdainfully, then skillfully opened the car door, and a fresh fragrance came to her face, and she got into it at once. "It's been six years, is it only for you to earn money, and not for my sister and me to squander it. I've been working in your human world for a while, and I've seen it now, and that life of growing orchids all day long is a waste of my life. ”

I stepped in, and the chassis of this little sports car was really low, and there was a feeling of heavy pressure when I sat in it. But the interior of this luxury car is really luxurious, and the seats are precious leather when you feel it. "Mo Lan, what have you been through all these years?"

Mo Lan slammed on the accelerator, and the sports car ejected like a rocket. In this quiet ancient city, a lightning-like light is drawn. "It's hard to put into words, I can tell you slowly tonight, but I know that you must be more important that you have been there and come to ask me, I don't think you will come here because you want to know my experience."

I let out a long sigh, then shook my head. "Yes, there is indeed a problem that has been bothering me for a long time, and this problem is actually difficult to solve, but I still want to know how it really ends."

"Let me guess." Mo Lan spun the steering wheel wantonly and shuttled through the streets. "Isn't it related to that friend of yours?"

I'm not surprised that Mo Lan would guess this, because it is the mission of their clan to find the son of the orchid, and I don't know how many years before an orchid son is born, Xiao Yin, as the son of the orchid in this era, Mo Lan will never forget it no matter what.

"That's right, it's about Xiao Yin?"

"Huh." Mo Lan smiled bitterly, looking rather unconcerned. "He's been dead for so long, what's going on that makes you wonder."

I kept staring at her, and she said it so indifferently that it seemed that I was a little relieved. "He's my friend, and he saw me before he died, he was so good, at the peak of his career, but suddenly died like this, to be honest, I really don't understand, I want to know, how did he die?"

Mo Lan's eyes kept staring ahead, her car was driving fast, and the scenery on both sides was blowing like a strong wind. "Isn't the cause of his death reported on the Internet? The official claim is that it was a suicide, and netizens think that it was an assassination by Apple, and the above explanations are reasonable, what else do you not understand? ”

"Mo Lan...... I don't think so, I'm wondering if he's ......" I deliberately glanced at Mo Lan as I said this, and only dared to continue when I was sure she didn't mind. "I wonder if he died from Orchid Gu?"

The night was thicker than the old ink, like a fog that could not be diluted, and I saw a great chaos in front of the car window, and the faint headlights could not illuminate the direction of progress at that moment.

Mo Lan didn't answer me, but kept concentrating on driving, as if she hadn't heard me at all, she suddenly rolled open the window, and the speed of 150 miles made the wind outside the window pour into the slightly warm carriage like an arrow, the cold, the stinging, and an inexplicable fear, as if these could make her still drunk a little sober.

"Liu Quan, in fact, there are some things that you shouldn't know, because I'm afraid that the more you know, the more painful and troublesome it will be." Mo Lan said quietly, at this moment, she seemed to have become the same person she was back then. "I advise you not to ask again."

"Mo Lan, you must know something? Please tell me. "I seem to see a glimmer of light in the night, how can I give up now." Now as long as I know the truth, death is worth it. ”

I knew I had said it a little too much, I just wanted to play a joke with her, but no matter what I said, my thoughts were as pure.

Multiply! Mo Lan slammed on the brakes, the tires rubbing wildly against the ground, and there was a piercing tearing sound.

I was almost thrown out of the way by the sudden brakes, but thankfully I was wearing a seatbelt. But even so, his head hit the windshield in front of him, and he felt a sharp pain in his forehead, followed by a small bag.

"Liu Quan, this was the case six years ago, I once persuaded your friend not to accept Orchid Gu, but he was stubborn, he didn't want to go to the Valley of Love, today I also persuaded you bitterly, and you are also bent on going your own way, do you think the truth of the matter is really that beautiful?" Mo Lan was inexplicably angry, and I was a little overwhelmed.

I stared at her blankly, not knowing what to say. I couldn't figure out why she was so angry all of a sudden, without the slightest warning.

"Do you know that your friend has made me miserable?" Mo Lan roared again, and I shivered with fright.

At this moment, the world around him was surprisingly quiet, and it seemed that only the faint sound of his own heartbeat could be heard, back and forth on this empty and uninhabited road.

"I'm sorry, I'm a little excited." Mo Lan gently grabbed my hand, and her mood eased slightly. "You are his friend, and you have watched the process of planting orchid Gu, I can understand your curiosity."

"Mo Lan, I'm not just curious, because I'm really a person who likes to break the casserole and ask questions, because a month before Xiao Yin died, he once came to my teahouse and told me a long time, and his words touched me deeply, and then his actions were contrary to that passage, although people tacitly believe that he was killed by Apple, and Apple fell not long ago, and the CEO also died of cancer, so no one pursues these things anymore. But you know what? Knowing the truth about a friend's death is perhaps the greatest respect for him. ”

Mo Lan looked at my eyes quietly, her lips trembled, and it took a long time for a faint voice to come out. "Well, I'll tell you everything."

She took a deep breath, feeling the coolness of the night sucked into her tiny chest, and I pricked up my ears, afraid to breathe, for fear of missing every word she said. "Xiao Yin committed suicide."

"Suicide?" I couldn't believe my ears. "He committed suicide, does it really have nothing to do with Orchid Gu?"

"He really committed suicide, and no one knows the truth of this better than me." After speaking, Mo Lan gently covered her cheeks and rubbed them slowly, and there seemed to be a flash of white light between her fingers. "Look at me, is it familiar."

I saw that after this moment, Mo Lan had changed into another face, and the contour of her body was still like that, but it wasn't because of makeup or some strange spell, her face really looked like it had been reshaped. "This! What's going on. “

"You shouldn't know that as a pandan clan, we can easily change our appearance, these mortals can do it, let alone me." Mo Lan explained. "Do you take a closer look at this face of mine and see if you can remember anything?"

I looked at her carefully, it was too familiar, it was too familiar, I must have seen her somewhere, because that face made me feel more intimate than Mo Lan now. I searched my mind repeatedly, and the more I tried to trace some things, the more I couldn't start, and that face was stuck in my memory, and I couldn't get it out.

"Don't you usually watch the news?" Mo Lan suddenly said something strange for some reason.

News? Is this a code word? But it didn't help to prompt me at all, and I still started with it.

"Hello everyone, I'm in Cupertino, where the headquarters of Apple USA is located." Mo Lan suddenly spoke very standard Mandarin like a reporter, which really startled me.

"Now the city's ambulance crews have taken the victim to the local hospital for resuscitation,...... So our photographer couldn't get up close and personal with you, but a police officer told us that the victim was cold when she was found, and her heart and breathing had already stopped...... "She kept repeating the same words as a news line, and it was very vivid.

This intonation, this timbre, I must have heard it somewhere. The familiar voice convinced me that I had heard it more than I knew how many times.

"You! It's the female reporter, the female reporter who has been interviewing Xiao Yin. Small square! ”

I was amazed that I could still remember this name, this female reporter never appeared in the public eye after Xiao Yin's death, and I haven't seen her on the screen for a year, but her questioning of Xiao Yin at the time, and the pain of Xiao Yin's death in the end are vivid in my mind.

Mo Lan nodded, then rolled up the window and continued to drive forward.

"That's right, I'm that little party, whether it's from the perspective of Orchid Gu or from a normal perspective, I know the truth of this matter better than you." Mo Lan's words burned me like a fire at the moment. "I even saw his corpse with my own eyes, just like you at the time, just to see if he died because of Orchid Gu."
