On the lights of thousands of homes, there are eyes flickering.

The community where Xia Lin lives is a pure western-style community, with the help of the night and the hidden nature of Yubao, Lu Xiaoqi sat above and found her at a glance, she lived in a stacked duplex building, there was a big terrace, and she was collecting clothes.

It seems that Xia Lin's living conditions are very good, she rides a battery car to work, but because the community is very close to her school, it is not that she can't afford to buy a car, Lu Xiaoqi feels that Zhong Qi is a misjudgment of Xia Lin, judging from the layout on the terrace, you know that Xia Lin is a person with a delicate life.

Lu Xiaoqi was calm and didn't notice the trace of the Pisces jade pendant here, but he always felt that Xia Lin must know that this was his intuition.

After waiting for a while, Xia Lin probably finished eating, she pushed a wheelchair, slowly came out of the unit door, and walked slowly on the garden road of the community.

The night in early spring is very cold, no different from winter, Lu Xiaoqi has to hold A-Yuan in his arms, observe coldly, and feel that he will not cover a blanket when he pushes the patient out on such a cold day, unlike her Xia Lin's thoughtful and water-proof personality.

The person in the wheelchair, with gray hair and vicissitudes of life, looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, and he had been panting as if he had asthma, Lu Xiaoqi thought to himself that it was probably Xia Lin's father or father-in-law, but the weather was cold at this time, but he didn't see anyone else coming out.

In front of this wheelchair, there is just an interesting thing in the sight of the elderly, just like a rotating musical toy that trains children's color discrimination ability over the crib, accompanied by a slight sound of music, slowly turning like a marquee, looking like a few small squares from a distance, I don't know what it is for.

After pushing a few times, Xia Lin stopped the wheelchair, stood next to him and answered a phone call, laughing happily while answering the phone, the charming smiling face in the night provoked people who walked and jogged to turn back frequently, but she didn't care, chatted for a while, and heard a series of sneezes from the person in the wheelchair, she hung up the phone, said a few words to the person in the wheelchair, stopped in place, and did limb stretching, as if waiting for someone to come.

"I can hear the patient's sneeze so far away, doesn't this woman know how to push the person back first and then do her radio gymnastics?" Lu Xiaoqi asked, Bai Lin rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him, because through the clouds and mist, he couldn't see anything, and he didn't know how Lu Xiaoqi could see so clearly.

Lu Xiaoqi didn't care, at this time he saw a tall and sturdy middle-aged man running over with long legs, the thick gold chain around his neck under the street lamp was shining, he rushed to Xia Lin's side, hugged Xia Lin in his arms and kissed him firmly, hugged Xia Lin, and helped slowly push the patient back. Lu Xiaoqi felt that this should be Xia Lin's husband.

After a while, Xia Lin and the middle-aged man walked out with their fingers interlocked, looking like they were in a good relationship. It was probably the weekend to go out to watch a movie or something, so Lu Xiaoqi followed, only to see them get into a luxury car, drive to a villa area and stop, and enter the door with a smile.

It didn't take long for the lights in the living room to turn off, leaving only one window in the bedroom with a light faintly kissing, and it wasn't long before only the faint light of a small nightlight remained.

Lu Xiaoqi urged his heart to get up, and told Yubao to get close to the window, only to hear the sound of the water inside, and then the gentle laughter of the two people, and soon the wheezing sound was broken, and Lu Xiaoqi quickly covered Ah Yuan's ears.

The sound insulation of the house is actually good, and Lu Xiaoqi can hear a few words in the voice that Bai Lin can't hear, such as: "It's finally another weekend, let's go out to play together tomorrow." "Is it really okay to leave that old thing behind?" "He deserves it! I've been hungry for two meals and I'll go back and feed him tomorrow night, it's fine. ”

Then the sound of the mattress began to rhythm again, and Lu Xiaoqi turned around and went back to the community where Xia Lin was just now.

Bai Lin didn't know what was going on and asked him what was wrong. Only then did Lu Xiaoqi let go of the hand covering Ah Yuan's ears and said:

"I'm just guessing that the middle-aged man just now is not Xia Lin's husband. It's a person with a lot of status, either rich or powerful, but as far as I know, people with power can't do a lot of things, and they have to choose a place to take out the garbage carefully, and stealing food will not be so blatant. So my conclusion is that this guy is probably a rich man on the road. ”

Bai Lin's eyes lit up and he applauded: "That's right!" So, I said those colleagues didn't dare to choreograph her at will! If someone says bad things and is stabbed out with bad intentions, he will probably be retaliated! The masses probably know about her one-third of an acre, and they dare not laugh or speak! ”

After saying a few words, he had already returned to the bungalow community, and Xia Lin's house was still dark. If she hadn't seen her push an old man in, I would have thought it was an empty house where no one lived.

Bai Lin went up to the top floor and knocked on the door many times, but no one answered the door.

Lu Xiaoqi jumped on the top floor terrace from Yubao's back and hugged A-Yuan, and didn't forget to explain:

"This is doing a bad thing, Ah Yuan don't learn."

Bai Lin sneered.

The cold wind passed by his ears, Ah Yuan suddenly grabbed Lu Xiaoqi's hand, and became nervous, Lu Xiaoqi suddenly understood that this was Ah Yuan's sequelae, the night, the roof, and the cold wind.

He didn't care so much, he directly pushed open the balcony sliding door, and hurriedly let A-Yuan into the house.

In this way, the three of them illegally invaded other people's homes, turned on the lights loudly, and shouted:

"Is anyone home. Don't call the police, not the bad guys! "There was no one on the top floor, the whole house was empty.

When he went down the stairs and turned on the living room light, Lu Xiaoqi was startled, a wheelchair fell in front of them, the old man in the wheelchair fell to the ground, his bloodshot eyes stared at them, he didn't speak, his whole body was constantly twisted, but he was like a soft-footed shrimp, which couldn't play any role.

In the whole living room, there is only the faint sound of music from the toys still rotating in the wheelchair, which is particularly strange in the quiet mansion.

Lu Xiaoqi hurriedly stepped forward and helped the old man up, the old man's hands were trembling all the time, he sat down on the ground, slowly turned his head to look at the water cup on the table, and made a sound in his throat.

Lu Xiaoqi saw a large glass of water on the table with a straw inserted, guessing that he might have wanted to drink water in a wheelchair, and fell down when he reached the straw, fortunately he came in, otherwise he would have been thirsty all day, looking at his physical condition, there is a chance that someone will die.

Holding a water cup and feeding the water to the old man's mouth, who knew that he would not drink it again, shook his head weakly, and pointed to the kitchen behind Lu Xiaoqi with trembling hands.

"Hungry?" Lu Xiaoqi asked him, but the old man opened his mouth and coughed loudly, Lu Xiaoqi covered his nose, and still smelled a strong smell of medicine, this smell ......

"The water in the cup is medicated?" Lu Xiaoqi sniffed the straw and asked him in surprise.

The old man nodded dejectedly, and his whole body was weak from heat collapse.

A-Yuan understood his expression: "Brother, he seems to want to drink kitchen water, he doesn't want this glass of water." ”

Lu Xiaoqi suddenly realized, and immediately went to the kitchen to find a bowl and poured tap water, at the same time, he found that there was no trace of cooking dinner in the kitchen, only a can of rice noodles, a bag of salad dressing, and there was no other kitchen waste in the trash can except apple peels.

The old man gulped his water and panted, looking at Lu Xiaoqi, his lips trembling with tears.

Bai Lin shook his head vigorously:

"Alas...... What a grievance this must have suffered, how can this daughter-in-law be so ruthless, she is really a femme fatale! ”

"Old man, are you Xia Lin's father, or his father-in-law? What about the rest of the family? ”

Lu Xiaoqi squatted down, looked at the panting old man, and asked him this, who knew this question, the old man who seemed to have slowly calmed down suddenly screamed and cried, crying sadly and miserably.

He trembled and pointed to the toys that were still squeaking on the ground, Lu Xiaoqi lowered his head and picked them up, turned off the switch, and the five or six small squares that were hanging on the shelf and rotating quieted down.

When Lu Xiaoqi looked carefully, what kind of small toy is this, these are several life photos, which are compressed in this kind of acrylic photo frame with the size of playing cards, made into a keychain, and then the keychain is hung on the toy carousel, so that the old man is sitting in a wheelchair, and these photos are dangling in front of him one by one.

One is a middle-aged man who looks very similar to the old man, it can be said that he has carved out of a mold, with a proud spring breeze, smiling happily on the slope of the mountain; This middle-aged man's photo accounts for 2;

The third photo is a photo of the mother and daughter, sitting on the roller coaster in the children's playground with their arms outstretched, both of them showing their white teeth and the sun is shining;

The fourth is an old couple, sitting on a park bench and taking pictures, as if they are enjoying their old age, and both husband and wife have a sense of cultivation.

The last one is a man among the old couple, when the old man was younger, he stood in front of a school on crutches, without looking at the camera, and the expression outline of the side face was well chosen, which is the feeling of a successful person looking forward to the future.

"These are all your family? Who are they, and why don't they live here anymore? ”

The person in the wheelchair, who was originally lifeless, grabbed Lu Xiaoqi with trembling hands at this time, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and said with all his strength:

"Take, I'll go!"

The voice seemed to be squeezed out by the hoarse trachea through friction, there was no full sound quality timbre, only the vaguely recognizable sound outline, Lu Xiaoqi had a bold assumption:

"Old man, is your throat poisoned and dumb when you drink that kind of medicated water all year round?"

The old man raised his feeble eyes and squeezed out a sneer.

"He said yes." Ah Yuan translated that expression.

The sound of a bird hitting and flying away on the window startled the old man, and he grabbed Lu Xiaoqi and didn't let go or kept shouting: "Take me away, take me away!" ”

There was deep fear in his eyes, the last time Lu Xiaoqi saw this kind of fearful eyes, it was in the eyes of Huang Fu, who knew that he was going to die, but these two situations are very different, what did the old man in front of him experience? What was he afraid of?

"Let's go!" Bai Lin urged: "This old man thinks it's dangerous here, and he is begging us to save him, I see, this house doesn't even have a landline phone, the door is a password, we don't know the password can't get out, and we have to go from the rooftop, but do you want him to know about this fish treasure?" ”

Lu Xiaoqi smiled when he heard this, put those photos in his pocket, turned to the old man and said:

"I'll get you out, but there's a small request."

A moment later, an old man with a masked face was carried onto the terrace by Lu Xiaoqi and Bai Lin, and directly took the person a hundred kilometers away, entering Lao Hou's teahouse through the back door.

If it is really as Xia Lin said, they will not go home until the afternoon of the next day, then this period of time is a very sufficient time to communicate with this old man.

sent A-Yuan home, and was reprimanded by Lao Li again, saying that nine o'clock in the evening is the bottom line, it's more than nine o'clock, and he doesn't look like a brother when he is an elder brother!

Lu Xiaoqi stood there with a smile and was obediently scolded, never replying.

When he went back to the teahouse, he had already been fed a bowl of porridge by Bai Lin, knowing that he had been pulled out, as if he had been out of prison, his breath was much more even, and he looked at the spiritual luster of a living person on his face.

At the first glance of Lu Xiaoqi, the old man said:

"Thank you, you saved me! Otherwise, I will be killed! ”
