"I'm not bad here, there's hot water."

"That may be a problem with my water heater, Auntie, can I come to your house to get a bucket of hot water?" Today, I cleaned up the house and was covered in sweat after a busy day. ”

Aunt Chen hesitated for a moment, but looking at the young man outside from the cat's eyes, his face was a little anxious, as if he really needed help, and his heart was a little soft, who made her own child about that old.

"Okay."

Aunt Chen reached for the doorknob and slowly opened the door......

In the scientific research studio, a bunch of interstellar circles were originally neatly arranged in various transparent glasses, surrounded by instruments.

There was also a group of white coats walking around busily.

"Chen Xiaozhi, your letter!" At the door, a young doctor in a white coat walked in, and said as he walked, "The person who delivered the letter today has a new face, I haven't seen it before." ”

"Maybe the little brother from before took a leave of absence." The other doctor casually replied, leaning forward to look at the stack of envelopes in his hand, "Is there mine?" ”

"No, there is only Chen Xiaozhi's today."

"Okay."

"Teacher Wang, thank you for helping me get it back." Chen Xiaozhi left his workstation and walked over quickly.

"It's okay, it's a gesture."

After Chen Xiaozhi got the envelope, he put it aside casually, and he was not in a hurry to look at it.

During the retreat of the scientific research institute, all the things they could communicate with were confiscated, and these letters that could be sent in would also be opened and examined, and he didn't have to think about it to know that his mother wanted to write to himself because he couldn't be contacted on his mobile phone, and he often received such letters.

When things were done, Chen Xiaozhi leaned on the back of the chair and stretched a big waist, and then slowly opened the envelope.

There was no letter in the envelope, just a photo!

When Chen Xiaozhi saw the photo, his face was "huh" = a miserable pale!

He jerked up from his chair, which was tossed to the ground by his great movement.

"What's wrong, Xiaozhi?" Dr. Wang asked.

As soon as Chen Xiaozhi wanted to answer, he saw the words in the lower left corner of the photo, if you dare to say it, your mother will die immediately!

Chen Xiaozhi forcibly held back the words that had already come to his lips, and tried to calm down and said: "It's nothing, I just stood up and felt a little dizzy." ”

With trembling fingers, he lifted up the chair and walked quickly to the bathroom to lock the door of the private room.

Sitting on the toilet, trembling at the photo in his hand, his elderly mother was tied to a chair, with a rag in her mouth and a look of fear, and her wide-eyed eyes seemed to send a message from the photo, help me!

Behind the photo, there is a string of words.

If you want to save your mother, you will be allowed to come back within two days.

Half an hour later, in the cold and serious office, Chen Xiaozhi stood there with his head down and looked very apologetic, "Dean, my mother is sick, I have to rush home...... I'm really sorry. ”

"Xiao Zhi, you also know our rules here, this is a non-disclosure agreement, and no one can go out until the last minute."

"I know, but my mother is alone in my hometown and no one takes care of me, and I can't concentrate on doing scientific research here, don't worry, I will never say it."

"If you leak the secret, you will go to jail." The dean took out a document from the drawer and pushed it in front of Chen Xiaozhi, "If you make up your mind, you can sign it, you will bear the consequences after leaking the secret, and you can't participate in this scientific research task now." ”

"......" Chen Xiaozhi gritted his teeth, knowing that this would be related to his future, but his mother worked hard to pull herself up, could he still let her go? !

Quickly sign your name, take off your white coat, and walk away.

Edward gave Chen Xiaozhi two days, but he didn't expect Chen Xiaozhi's speed to be unexpectedly fast, and he flew back on the same day.

At night, Edward sat on the old sofa and took a sip of red wine, and there was an entertainment variety show on the TV next to him.

As soon as Chen Xiaozhi opened the door of the house, he saw this scene, his pupils contracted violently, and he rushed forward in a few steps to untie his mother.

"Hey, did you get my consent?" Edward looked at Chen Xiaozhi with a smile, and didn't seem to take this man about his size in his eyes at all.

"Bastard!" Chen Xiaozhi gritted his teeth, and he wanted to rush up and beat the man, but reason told him that he couldn't do this.

It must not be easy for this man to get the letter to him around the guards, and to find his mother all the way around.

"Don't worry, come and sit down." Edward smiled and patted the couch next to him.

Chen Xiaozhi glanced at his mother and said calmly: "Let go of my mother first, just come at me if something comes at me." ”

"Of course, I'm not interested in an old aunt." Edward shrugged his shoulders, "You sit down first, answer me a few questions and I'll let you go." ”

Chen Xiaozhi sat next to Edward slowly, and Edward smiled and poured Chen Xiaozhi a glass of red wine.

Obviously, this handsome man has been laughing, but for some reason, it made Chen Xiaozhi feel panicked and scared from the bottom of his heart.

He had a feeling that the man looked at him as calmly as he looked at a dead man.

The red wine in front of him was as dazzling as blood, Chen Xiaozhi stared at the red wine in a daze, and said nothing until Edward took the initiative to speak.

"I heard that you have recently taken the scientific research exam, it's very mysterious, what are you studying?" Edward asked gently.

“......”

"You don't want to say it's okay, but you might have to suffer a little." Edward chuckled, as if chatting like a family chatter.

"I signed a bail...... Belch!! Chen Xiaozhi was suddenly choked by a pair of hands, and Edward's handsome face was still smiling and gentle in front of him.

"What kind of material do you guess this knife is made of? Didn't it take a second to gouge out your eyes? ”

Edward pinched Chen Xiaozhi's neck with one hand, and held a knife in the other hand and gently slashed in front of Chen Xiaozhi's eyes, feeling the cold touch, Chen Xiaozhi couldn't help but tremble.

"I say! I say! Chen Xiaozhi spit out a few words with difficulty, and instantly felt a large amount of fresh air being inhaled into his nasal cavity again.

After a few breaths of relief, Chen Xiaozhi subconsciously touched his neck and looked at the man with a gentle smile beside him in horror.

"Say it." Edward patted Chen Xiaozhi on the shoulder, like a good buddy.

"We've been in the ...... lately I'll kill you!! Chen Xiaozhi suddenly burst out and pounced on Edward with his body.

He thought he had pounced on Edward, but he didn't expect that he would smash himself directly on the sofa, and when he quickly turned around, Edward was already standing beside him with a smile.

"Ah!!h A sharp pain came from his lumbar spine, and Edward's dagger had pierced his body.
