Chapter 246: Climbing
As the yacht continued to move forward in the sea, we finally managed to resist the bottom of the cliff from the dock.
Tang Yirou has already told us that the Western-style mansion where No. 37 L Mansion is located is on that cliff, and as long as we arrive there, we will be one step closer to the truth.
The sea breeze was gusting, making me shiver all over my body, and after sending us to the bottom of the cliff, Tang Yirou set up the yacht and left first.
Although the Yu family began to suspect Tang Yirou, they should not have discovered her true identity, and they had been away for too long, which would inevitably arouse the suspicion of those people.
If this mission, codenamed 1667, is discovered, then the point of our arrival will cease to exist.
Compared with the safety of me and Lu Yuan, Tang Yirou's identity and task are more important.
After the yacht left, Lu Yuan and I stood next to each other at the bottom of the cliff, each took out a cigarette and smoked for a while.
Spit out ethereal smoke, look at the vast sky, and feel the sea breeze around you.
Come to think of it, the last time I sat by the sea and smoked with him like this, it was already in college. At that time, Tang Yirou was still my girlfriend, and Lu Yuan still secretly liked Lin Jie.
It's just that, after so many years, the sea in front of us is still the same as the original sea, but we have become a thing and a person.
Ji Yan left us forever, and Lu Yuan and I also reunited at this Western-style mansion called No. 37 L Mansion for our own purposes.
What awaits us in the Western-style Pavilion? Unknown!
Now, the only thing we can do is to do our best, so that we can have no regrets until we are alive.
When Tang Yirou had walked far enough, Lu Yuan finally extinguished the cigarette butt, and said slowly at us: "Rest long enough, let's go, let's go!" ”
Such a long time is indeed enough for Tang Yirou to return to Yu Tianlong's side, if Lu Yuan and I pass by at this time and stagger the time with each other, Yu Tianlong should never suspect us.
He extinguished his cigarette, got up, and followed him towards the top of the cliff.
If you want to think of the above, you can only choose the road to cross the cliff, however, the road that Tang Yirou chose for us is not so easy to walk.
The entire cliff is steep and abnormal, and some of the cliff walls are almost 90 degrees vertical.
And because the cliff faces the sea, it has been eroded by the sea breeze for many years, and some of the cliffs even show signs of weathering and become fragile.
To be honest, in the face of such a grim environment, my heart is still a little drumming.
Don't go up the cliff at that time, you just missed it, fell directly from it and fell to your death. That's so wrong, like a fool, all the things I said on the yacht before were counted!
Lu Yuan on the side glanced at me, and suddenly said coldly: "Boy, what, are you afraid?" ”
"No, I'm just wondering if there's a safer way to get there."
"A safer way?" Lu Yuan smiled disdainfully, grabbed the flashlight with his mouth, jumped vertically, and jumped directly to the cliff.
"There are so many safer ways in this world, in order to figure out something, in order to get what you want, sometimes, you have to pay the corresponding price!"
Lu Yuan's skills are very flexible, he first uses his feet to explore the way, and after the soles of his feet are completely solid, he switches to his hands and slowly groped upward.
Indeed, most professional rock climbers also adopt his method. After all, human legs are far more powerful than hands, and it's a smart idea to use your legs as your main choice when climbing.
If you just blindly use your hands to drive your body forward, it won't be long before you will be exhausted. And climbing this kind of high-risk cliff, the most taboo is to exhaust your strength in the middle, in that kind of location, once there is exhaustion, it means that death is not far away.
Lu Yuan bit the flashlight to illuminate it, flexible like a monkey, constantly moving upward. Most of the places he climbed were solid rock walls, so I was relieved to follow the trajectory he climbed, all the way up.
Behind me, the sea breeze was gusting, and for some reason, the higher I climbed, the more I could feel the strength of the sea breeze.
On a few occasions, I was not careful, and was almost blown off the rock face by the sea breeze.
Before I knew it, I had crawled to nearly half of the position, and just as I was about to continue to climb upward, a deep voice suddenly sounded in my ears: "Goofy, have you thought about it?" Are you sure you want to climb up? ”
The voice was so low, but it gave people an irresistible feeling, and when I turned my head slowly, I saw that in addition to the distance of the road, there was a strange man lying on the rock wall on the side.
With a thin figure, I can't see my facial features clearly, and I wear a pair of old-fashioned black-framed glasses on the bridge of my nose, which is the figure that has been haunting me since seven years ago.
When my dad died in front of me, after I suffered the serial murder seven years ago, this guy was like a nightmare, always quietly and unexpectedly.
I knew that the figure wasn't real, and that the guy was just an image in my mind, so I ignored him and continued to walk forward.
Human beings hate loneliness, so there are many people in this world who will talk to themselves when they are alone, constructing a non-existent "partner" to talk to him in their minds, and people who have been traumatized in their hearts are especially obvious, which is called split personality in medicine.
At the end of the serial murder case seven years ago, I was put on a psychiatric test and answered nearly the same questions without stopping.
After a week of testing, the doctors came to the conclusion that I had a mild split personality, which means that I would unconsciously create another personality to protect myself in a situation of high stress. And this situation is largely caused by the stimulation that that serial murder case brought me.
Over the years, I have been cooperating with the treatment, and with medication and normal guidance, this has gradually decreased. However, when I was re-involved in the black gold case, the situation seemed to start to worsen again.
The most obvious of these is that I have seen that figure no less than three times in the past half a month, and at this moment, I dare to admit that the figure that appeared next to me is somewhat similar to my father when he was young, and he has become a lingering nightmare in my mind.
Seeing that I didn't pay attention to him, the figure moved closer and continued, "Goofy, kid, to be honest, you have to learn to give up something. If you climb the cliff and find that it is completely empty, and there is no so-called foreign pavilion, then what you are doing at the risk of your life is meaningless, isn't it? ”
"Meaning? Is it important, it's something I've decided to do, and even if I die because of it, I won't regret it! ”
Enter, enter, only three or four meters away from the top of the cliff, as long as you pass this section, the next journey will be much easier.
"The wheels of history are rolling forward, and there are some things that you can't change, you can only choose to obey. That was the case seven years ago, and it's the same today! ”
"Fart! Lao Tzu will let you see today, what is called changing your life against the sky! The blood was surging, the heart was beating wildly, and the cold corpse of Liu Dan seven years ago resurfaced in front of him.
Powerlessness, fear, remorse! Countless emotions swept through the body in an instant. If I had understood the truth of the matter earlier, would Liu Dan not have died?
When my dad talked to me that afternoon, I should have been able to realize that something was wrong. Unfortunately, I didn't take that conversation seriously until it reached a point where it was irreparable.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but speed up the frequency in my hand, and began to climb towards the top of the cliff with all my strength.
After three years of studying at the police academy, I have become completely different from myself seven years ago! At the very least, I would never allow the same thing to happen from my eyes again!
Whether it is Tang Yirou or Lin Xiaoxue, I will never let them repeat Liu Dan's mistakes, this is the promise I made to myself!
"Hehe, then let's wait and see, see who is right this time!"
With the old voice of the figure at the end, I suddenly felt the soles of my feet loosen, and then, the whole body unconsciously lost its balance!
It's not good, because I was too unfocused, I didn't pay attention to the rock under my feet, and I happened to step on the weathered piece that had long been weathered.
In a hurry, he unconsciously increased the strength of his right hand, like a drowning person who wants to eagerly grasp the life-saving straw. Unfortunately, the piece I grabbed in my right hand happened to be a weathered rock that had long since been weathered, and it instantly shattered into a mass of slag.
Nima, it is said that if a person is unlucky, he will have to stuff his teeth when he drinks cold water, and after losing two points of support, my whole person is completely suspended in mid-air, and my left hand is not enough to support the strength of the whole body.
The strength disappeared little by little, and my life seemed to have come to an end, and in the next second, I only felt that my left hand was loosened, and then the whole person fell completely down the cliff.
At this height, if you fall directly, you will definitely have no bones left.
But at this critical moment, I don't know how Lu Yuan above reacted, that guy was able to turn around and grab my right hand with his left hand, and he pulled me in the air.
"Stinky boy, I said a long time ago don't pull Lao Tzu's hind legs, what kind of stunt are you playing!"
Now, the lives of both of us are all tied to Lu Yuan's strong right hand, no matter how strong he is, his right arm is definitely not enough to support the weight of the two of them.
Gradually, he was about to lose his support.
