Volume 1 Danger Lurks Chapter 64 Ideals and Reality
It has been nearly two months since the catastrophe, and in these two months, Xiao Jing has been in exile, and he has hardly slept a peaceful night!
But here, Xiao Jing was able to fall asleep without warning, with an unguarded attitude, I have to say, it was the first time in so many days.
Here, he really has a feeling of 'home', here, there is a powerful boss who sacrifices himself to save people, his own friends, Yue Yan, who is colder than anyone else, but has a warm-hearted heart, and Li Xiaoyue, who is lively.
Here, there is his partner, so he can have no reservations!
Xiao Jing didn't close the window, Yue Yan was quietly looking at him, seeing that he was sleeping soundly, somehow, she showed a slight smile.
Just like the bloom of mountain flowers in an instant, this short-lived smile seems to illuminate the entire space, as bright as the spring sunshine!
But it's a pity that Xiao Jing is asleep and can't see this smile.
It seemed that just to take a look, Yue Yan came quietly and left quietly, leaving only Xiao Jing, snoring blankly.
Xiao Jing slept in the dark, from day to night, and then to the day, and when he woke up, it was already two days of night.
This sleep lasted for a long time, and the effect was surprisingly good, Xiao Jing felt as if he had regained his life, full of vitality, but his stomach was a little hungry, which was normal, after all, he hadn't eaten for two days and two nights.
He went downstairs, and when he passed by Yue Yan's room, he found that she was still reading, Xiao Jing smiled at her, but Yue Yan didn't respond, Xiao Jing didn't care, nodded and went downstairs.
It's already seven o'clock in the evening, and it's already past dinner, and the canteen on the second floor is closed, but there are often people working overtime in the past two days, and the canteen will always leave some food to be hot at any time.
Xiao Jing took one and sat down at the table to eat.
At this moment, two men dressed in the uniforms of the security team came up from downstairs, one was stronger, the other was dark and short.
The black man looked at the person who was sitting, moved a chair and sat down at random, and said to the stronger man sitting on his left: "Have you heard? The boss hasn't come down for several days recently." ”
"What's this, the boss likes to stay upstairs, can you manage it!" said the strong man with disdainful eyes.
The black man seemed to feel despised and hurriedly said, "You don't know! I heard from the people around the boss that he kept the door closed, not letting people in, and the food he sent over never touched, if it weren't for the boss always replying, it sounded normal, they would have thought that something was wrong!"
"Oh?" the strong man said with a little curiosity, "And this kind of thing?"
"Really! The one who delivered the food was my fellow countryman, and he told me personally!" As if he was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, the black dwarf man still emphasized, but then, he hesitated a little and said, "But he also found something strange!"
Seeing that the strong man was aroused, the black dwarf man seemed to satisfy his vanity, he looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he motioned for the strong man to come closer and speak.
He leaned over the strong man's head and whispered, "He smelled blood in that room! And it was thick! Once the door was not closed, and he saw something with scales slipping inside." ”
The strong man couldn't believe it: "How can it smell of blood?"
"I don't believe it either!" said the black dwarf, suddenly thinking of something, and said with a hint of horror, "You say, is the smell of blood human?" or is the boss researching something?"
As soon as he said this, the strong man's heart was also a little furious, and he suddenly didn't dare to say more, they glanced at each other, took a few mouthfuls of food, and hurried away, as if he was afraid of committing some taboo.
Xiao Jing sat at a distance from the two tables between them, even if the last few words, what they said were very vague, but Xiao Jing's five senses were outstanding, and he still heard it clearly.
The smell of blood? And the scaly stuff?
Xiao Jing frowned, this is not a good sign, is the boss really doing something? Or is something wrong?
However, this kind of thing cannot be believed by hearing some rumors, and you have to ask the people who really know.
Xiao Jing acted as if he hadn't heard the conversation just now, and ate his share slowly, without even a grain of grain left, and then put the plate aside, ready to ask someone.
However, as soon as Xiao Jing got up, he saw a few acquaintances, Fang Bo, a square-faced man, Yang Wen, a probationary criminal policeman, and Liao Weiyuan, and two other men wearing security team uniforms walking over with a smile.
Looking at the direction they came, they should have just come up from downstairs, and since they met, it was not good to leave without saying hello.
Xiao Jing stopped: "Brother Fang, Liao Weiyuan, you are also coming to eat?"
Fang Bo was also a little surprised when he saw him, but he still smiled and said, "That's right, I just came back from the mission, and I haven't bothered to eat yet, hehe." ”
Xiao Jing said: "Then don't bother Brother Fang, I'll talk to Liao Weiyuan." ”
Fang Bo glanced at Liao Weiyuan and nodded, and Xiao Jing motioned for Liao Weiyuan to come aside with him.
But Liao Weiyuan stood still and didn't move, but grabbed Xiao Jing and said, "No need, just say it here! It's about to eat, let's save trouble." ”
Xiao Jing raised his head in surprise, as if he didn't know him anymore, listening to the meaning of his words, although the reason was very good, but the estranged meaning in the words could be heard by fools.
Xiao Jing didn't know what he meant, but he still said: "There are some things that are not convenient to say, so let's go out and say them." ”
But Liao Weiyuan was still unmoved, and just said: "There is nothing inconvenient between us, just say something." ”
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and everyone stared at the two of them, with incomprehension, schadenfreude, helplessness, and disdain in their eyes.
After a few seconds, Fang Bo didn't want the atmosphere to be so stiff, so he came out and said, "Okay, don't be stubborn for the distance, Xiao Jing is your former companion after all, and some words are normal, just go and listen to it!!"
Liao Weiyuan can not give Xiao Jing face, but he can't give Fang Bo face, after all, he has a wide range of friends in the security team, and his power is not comparable to that of a newcomer, even if he climbs the one, there is no need to offend him.
Xiao Jing came to the viewing window first, looked at the reckless jungle outside, and didn't speak.
Liao Weiyuan followed behind him, and he was also very patient, Xiao Jing didn't speak, he didn't speak, since they had already followed, then he didn't care about this time.
"Look, we're from over there! We caught a fat rabbit in that tree, remember?" Xiao Jing looked at it for a long time, and suddenly opened his mouth with great interest.
Liao Weiyuan also smiled and said, "Remember, Yan Mouhui shot several arrows, but he didn't even hit the side, and in the end, the two of us shot it." ”
Xiao Jing nodded: "Hmm." ”
"Yan Mouhui is dead, you should already know about it. Xiao Jing was silent for a while, and then said suddenly.
Liao Weiyuan nodded, but he couldn't see any expression on his face, and said, "I know." ”
Xiao Jing took a deep breath, as if he had made a lot of determination, and said, "I'm sad, I know that you are very good friends, so I think I want to come and talk to you." ”
"Ah-" Liao Weiyuan smiled disdainfully: "I'm not sad, you don't have to feel sorry for me, he died just because he deserved to die!"
Xiao Jing was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
Liao Weiyuan smiled mockingly: "You heard him right, he just deserves to die! Because he is too weak! You know, too weak!"
He finally had a somewhat different expression, biting his cheeks and saying, "In this damn world, weakness is the original sin!"
Xiao Jing seemed to understand a little: "So what?"
"So I want to be stronger! I want to be strong at all costs! I don't want to live in fear all day long, praying for tomorrow! What I want is that one day, others will pray to me that they can live!" Liao Weiyuan's green tendons on his neck burst out because he was too hard, his eyes flashed like a wolf, and the expression on his face was hideous and terrifying!
Xiao Jing felt that there was no need to say any more, this person and he were no longer on the same road!
He seemed to get to know this person again, this calm and reliable teammate, the person who once said that he would follow him, has now officially announced his separation from him!
Xiao Jing didn't know if it was Yan Mouhui's death that changed him, or if these thoughts originally existed in his heart.
He asked again, "So, that's it?"
Liao Weiyuan was silent for a second and said, "That's right, that's it!"
Neither of them said what 'that's it', because there was no need anymore, both of them knew what the other was talking about and what the other had chosen, and that was enough.
Xiao Jing nodded, while Liao Weiyuan left without looking back.
In fact, Liao Weiyuan once said that when he first decided to follow Xiao Jing, he said that he would follow Xiao Jing when he didn't find a more valuable target to follow.
It turns out that he was ready at that time? Xiao Jing thought, it was really realistic!
But that's fine, since the words are all said, whether it's an enemy or a teammate in the future, let's settle our destiny!
Xiao Jing still said hello to Fang Bo, and everything seemed to be business as usual with Liao Weiyuan, but everyone knew that the two had been strangers since then.
Xiao Jing found Secretary Liu on the construction site, and he discovered another advantage of Secretary Liu, being conscientious!
Although he is actually constantly taking power for himself, I have to say that he can't do better as a big manager now!
In terms of handling affairs, without him, it is really impossible to run such a big stall, it is past seven o'clock, and he seems to have not even eaten!
Xiao Jing asked him about Wang Wenzhong, although this matter has little to do with him in the end, but he has a very good impression of Wang Wenzhong, for him, this is a pioneer in the same way, and he always has a little worry.
