Ten minutes later, there was silence all around, and Tang Shan crawled out from under the bed, feeling like a whole century had passed.

Tang Shan sat on the ground, his head resting on the edge of the bed, and when the soreness on his body completely faded, he took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight function, and carefully looked at the indoor layout.

It's a normal room. A bed, a table, a chair. There is also a wardrobe. Tang Shan opened the wardrobe and looked at it, except for being relatively large, he could hide from one person at a critical time, and there was nothing worth paying special attention to.

Tang Shan opened the table drawers in turn, all of which were sundries. Didn't find anything related to the endgame on the coffee table outside.

That game of chess is here, and it won't be for nothing.

Who put the chess game in the tea for a few years? Is it the deceased Zhou Weiliang, or the murderer? How did this man know how the endgame was set?

According to the old man's statement, this plate of "jade silk gold tripod" has not been seen in the world except for himself; After the old man's death, except for Tang Shan himself, no one in the world knew how to really pose and move.

Regardless of the way of moving for the time being, but the endgame swing method, Tang Shan has seen it twice so far. It's not an accident, it must have some kind of mysterious connection with yourself.

Yuyama continued to rummage through the drawer. Eventually, in the lowest compartment, he found a journal with a blue cover. He flipped through it, and it was full of names, followed by the amount, and the daily interest payable.

It was Zhou Weiliang's usury account book. The first sum of money that the scoundrel put out on the casino would be written down on it, and after a few days it would be paid off, and then crossed out with a red pen. His kind of usury does not record compound interest, and it is easier to write down accounts and write off accounts.

At the end of the account, Tang Shan saw his name: Tang Shan, 30,000 yuan.

The interest amount is not written. Zhou Weiliang really didn't plan to charge him interest. But how did this guy know Tangshan's name?

Tang Shan didn't have time to think about it, he only vaguely knew that the account book was left here, and if it was found by the police, it might be unfavorable to him. He hesitated for a moment and tucked the notebook into his jacket pocket.

When Tang Shan left Zhou Weiliang's farewell, he felt that his behavior was very ridiculous, and he didn't know if it would make things worse.

Quietly returning to the lodgings, it was past five o'clock, the darkest and quietest hour of the day. Tang Shan didn't feel sleepy, stared at the ceiling with wide eyes, and still couldn't sleep until it was near noon.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

When knocking on the first round, Tang Shan didn't care, thinking that the door next door was ringing.

When he knocked on the second round, the people outside the door obviously increased their strength, and Tang Shan felt that the sound was unusually sharp, not like it was coming from knocking on the wooden door at all, but more like something smashing on its thick iron plate.

Tangshan has lived here for a year, and usually few friends come to look for him. Who's knocking so quickly outside at the moment? His first thought was the police. Happened? How did the police come so quickly?

Yuyama bounced up from the bed. The first thing he did was to stuff Zhou Weiliang's ledger and mobile phone into the bag under the bed. At the same time, there are also several stacks of money won last night.

In fact, there is no point in doing this, it makes him seem more sneaky. Because if it is really a police officer outside the door, after entering the room, he will definitely search every corner of the room and will not let go of a single hair.

Tang Shan's behavior can only prove that he has no talent for crime at all. In a state of nervousness and panic, he will make things worse than usual.

Tang Shan was delayed like this, and the knock on the door was louder and more urgent. It's a bit of a break-in.

He kicked his duffel bag under the bed, walked to the door with a violent heartbeat and fateful panic, shook his hands, put his left fist on his chest, and opened the door with his right hand.

There are no police. A false alarm. Fang Tang stood outside the door, looking at him with a smile. It seems to have seen through the secrets of his heart.

Fang Tang squeezed into the room, his eyes looking around meaningfully. Even the bathroom took a look. Finally, he stared back at Tang Shan's face and asked:

"What about people?"

Tang Shan was taken aback, and asked inexplicably:

"Who?"

Fang Tang grinned mysteriously, his eyes full of sarcasm:

"I've been knocking for so long, my hand is about to break, you haven't reacted, don't tell me that you sleep so dead in the house alone."

Tangshan is still unknown, so:

"What do you mean?"

Fang Tang didn't answer, he squatted down suddenly, tilting his head and looking under the bed. Tang Shan was shocked again, did she really know his secret?

Fang Tang then hooked his broken duffel bag out with his toes, Tang Shan's heart rose to his throat, oh no, how could she be like a police search?

In fact, Tang Shan is completely based on the cranky thoughts of the weak heart. Fang Tang just glanced at the bottom of the bed, kicked his broken bag again, and kicked it back under the bed.

If it were normal, Tang Shan would probably be furious. But at this moment, he was a little overwhelmed. Fang Tang stood up, tilted his head and said to himself:

"Is there really no one?"

This time, Tang Shan finally came to his senses, she was looking for someone, and her worries seemed to be out of touch. So he bluffed and reproached:

"Damn, as soon as you enter the door, you look like a detective, what the hell do you want to do, can you give a clear word? Otherwise, I will be shocked, and my little heart can't stand it. ”

This may sound like a joke to outsiders, but in fact, most of it is his true feelings.

Fang Tang raised his eyes and stared at his face, and asked with a smile:

"You didn't coax that pretty girl back last night? I thought you were still lingering in the house, but when you knocked on the door, you were so scared that you hid. ”

Tang Shan took a long breath, and once again felt that this girl's words and actions were really as good as her name suggested, which was ridiculous enough.

Understanding the purpose of Fang Tang's actions, Tang Shan's heart fell back into his stomach, and his muscles and nerves all relaxed, so he pretended to say in a vicious voice:

"If there are girls in the house, why are they hiding? I haven't done anything unseemly, and I'm still afraid of you? ”

Fang Tang probably didn't expect Tang Shan to be so vicious, he looked at him in a daze for a while, suddenly his face was full of sadness, and he sighed and said:

"That's right, you don't have to hide from me. You're above board, but I'm too stupid. ”

The words were vague, and Tang Shan didn't understand much. But he didn't have much of the heart to guess the sound of her words now, so he only smiled and said insincerely:

"You knocked on my door early in the morning just to find out about this?"

Fang Tang sat on the edge of the bed nearby, no longer sad, no longer sighing, and gave Tang Shan a smile:

"I knocked on the door for too long and you didn't answer, and it occurred to me that the beautiful girl who was coaxed back yesterday by your clever words and was lying on the bed, so it was inconvenient for you to open the door. I'm not here to block you, I'm not that boring. ”

Tang Shan laughed and laughed, thinking that this girl was probably used to nature, and everything was directly related to the bed, and there was no more imagination other than that.

He gave a long yawn and reproached:

"Last night, I was troubled by the two of you in the middle of the night, and all good things were destroyed, and I wanted to sleep lazily in the morning, and I was noisy by you again. You say, did I owe you something in my last life, so that I should be punished so inhumanly in this life? ”

Fang Tang smiled:

"You shouldn't owe me anything in your last life. But do you remember what you said last night? ”

Tang Shan smiled and said:

"Yesterday I said a lot of things, some of them angry, some of them stupid. Anyway, there is not a serious word. ”

Fang Tang suddenly looked serious:

"My mom chose the second path."

Tang Shan was stunned:

"Road? What way? ”

Fang Tang was angry for no reason:

"Is it true that what you said to me is all a lie, and you will forget it when you turn your head?"

Tang Shan thought to himself, when did I open my mouth? But you opened your mouth last night, and your belly was enlarged, and you actually said it was mine.

But he didn't want to quarrel with Fang Tang now, he knew that part of Fang Tang's personality inherited Fang Lian's tenacity, and once he quarreled, he would always be entangled.

Tang Shan pretended to be aggrieved and spread his hands:

"Am I wrong, okay? I haven't slept well all night, and my brain is a little messy, so you can give me some hints. ”

Tang Shan knew that the best way to end the quarrel with the girl as soon as possible was to admit his mistake immediately. Whether it's true or not, just put on a posture on the surface.

All female compatriots, what you are fighting for is not a reason, but an attitude of yours.

Fang Tang didn't mean to quarrel, he suddenly put away his anger, turned his face full of worry, and sighed again:

"My mother asked me to have an abortion, but she didn't want to accompany me, saying that it was a shame for her, but in fact, she was afraid that I would spend her money."

Tang Shan completely remembered that last night, in order to get rid of the entanglement of the mother and daughter as soon as possible, he returned to the murder scene to find his mobile phone, and made three nonsense for Fang Lian to choose, and then left.

According to Fang Tang's current statement, Fang Lian chose the second path.

He was just an expedient measure at the time, and he really said it and forgot it, and the subsequent experience was too terrifying, so he didn't think about it at all.

Tang Shan found that last night's embarrassment had pushed him into a very absurd situation.

not only changed direction and admitted that he was the culprit of Fang Tang's big belly, but also had to deal with the aftermath for this: accompany her to have a fetus. It is difficult to predict any trouble in the future.

Tang Shan's tongue was knotted for a long time, searching for dry intestines, hoping to find a reason to get rid of the absurdity and return to the normal track, and Fang Tang could be seen sitting on the edge of the bed, looking like the wind was blowing down, and he was a little unbearable.

He thought to himself that this girl was actually quite pitiful, she didn't know what her father looked like since she was a child, no one disciplined her when she was older, she made friends carelessly, and she couldn't even find a responsible person for her big belly.

And the only mother who may support her is confused and stingy, and she can't share her worries at all.

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Shan suddenly hardened his heart again, fuck, there are more poor people in this world, and I am not a hero or a savior, can I manage it?

Besides, I am involved in that murder case, and I don't know how to get out, how can I have the extra energy to deal with this?

Seeing Tang Shan's hesitation, Fang Tang's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he took the lead in speaking:

"I know it's ridiculous to be on you. You can rest assured, I have the thousands of dollars for the fetus, as long as you accompany me to the hospital to register and queue up, if I am too weak to walk after the incident, you can help me take a taxi back. In addition, I will find an opportunity to explain it to your girlfriend in the future, and it will never hurt you or make you very difficult. ”

Speaking of which, Tang Shan didn't seem too ruthless and indifferent, and sighed in his heart, although he and her were not formal lovers, at least they were close friends.

Accompany her to the hospital, just take a break, anyway, you have nothing to lose.

Tang Shan patted Fang Tang's thin shoulder and said with a smile:

"I made the problem myself, and now that you have chosen the correct answer, I have to fulfill my obligations, right? I'll accompany you to the hospital. No big deal. ”

Fang Tang's face bloomed with a smile, but tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

Tang Shan also said:

"But I have something to do this afternoon, can I go tomorrow morning?"

Fang Tang said with a crying voice:

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if it's early or late."

Tang Shan rested her head on his shoulder, and the two hugged for a long time. It wasn't until Fang Lian was shouting downstairs that Fang Tang left. Before going out, she turned to Tang Shan and left a meaningful sentence:

"Thank you."

Tang Shan nodded wordlessly.

At dusk that day, Tang Shan went out and ate a bowl of rice noodles on the street, and slowly walked towards Chen Yusheng's house. Along the way, I was so confused that I wanted to turn around and go back several times.

Tang Shan walked for more than an hour before arriving at Chen Yusheng's house. Before entering the door, he turned on the recording button of his mobile phone, but after thinking about it, he turned it off with a long sigh. But it didn't exit the recording interface.

Tang Shan leaned against the door frame and said viciously to Chen Yusheng:

"Fuck, you killed Zhou Weiliang, but you deliberately designed me to be the biggest suspect."
