Huazi Lane in the holy city is planted with fragrant trees that bloom all year round, and the people who can live here can be said to be famous people in the political and business circles.

Lu He is forty-eight years old this year, and he is about to enter the year of the Mandate of Heaven, and he is still only the deputy director of the library, but as early as eight years ago, he almost entered the power center of Shenzhou, at that time he followed Zhao Yan, and the future was immeasurable, who knew that overnight, the man he followed betrayed the great family of Shen Wujia and threw himself into the arms of the Donggong family, which affected Lu He and made his career directly sentenced to death.

Until not long ago, Zhao Yan ascended the throne of the presidency, and the man with slightly gray sideburns smashed his favorite ancient porcelain teacup in excitement on the spot, because he knew that a new page in his life would be turned over.

Lu He's wife signed a divorce agreement with him five years ago, and took away his daughter, all these years of living alone, the former secretary of the parliament did not give up on himself, his private life and work attitude made people unable to find a flaw, maybe he understood that Zhao Yan is not the kind of reckless person, every step he takes is to pave the way for the future position, he needs to wait patiently, or rather, he can only believe so.

The lights in the room were extinguished, the dining table for six people was filled with the delicacies he had carefully prepared, and four candles supported by silver pillars were added to it, and after calling his wife, Lu He fell into the sofa and listened to the jazz music echoing in the stereo, he was about to make a comeback, and a bright future was already in front of him, and then as long as he took his wife and daughter back, his life could go back to the past.

It's just that Lu He doesn't know a little.

What was once shattered, no matter how retouched it was, could not go back to the past.

A gust of cold wind blew into the living room, making Lu He, who had closed his eyes and fallen into a beautiful delusion, feel excited, and he clearly remembered that the windows were closed.

And in the dim living room, there seemed to be a black flash, looking carefully, at the other end of the table, on the chair that should have been his place, I don't know when there was another person, a strange person with a mask that covered the upper half of his face, Lu He didn't make a sound, his whole body tensed, the other party didn't speak, but it was obvious that he was looking at himself, the more silent, the more uneasy it was.

As the minutes ticked by, only the music was still playing in the living room, and the irritating ticking of the clock on the wall.

"Who are you?" asked hoarsely, with a trilling voice, Lu He clenched his fists, and the whole person had sat up straight, he himself was just a C-level martial cultivator, but the instinct of the new human warned him that the man in front of him was dangerous.

The man sitting on the chair unceremoniously was naturally Bai Ye, and with a mask, he easily sneaked into this residential area.

Under the candlelight, Lu He's expression was gradually distorted, and the more silent he was, the more afraid he was of convenience.

At the moment when Lu He's spirit was about to collapse, Bai Ye coughed accurately, although it was not to speak, but it was enough to make Lu He's flustered eyes gradually calm down, at least there was a person in front of him.

"I'm here to kill you. The opening sentence was so simple that people couldn't answer, Bai Ye didn't plan to talk nonsense with this man at all, "If you have a reason, I think you know it very well." "What...... What, you're homeless? I've long since retired from politics...... Why do you have to deal with me, an ordinary person, Zhao Yan's becoming president doesn't have much to do with me!" The first thing that came to mind was the owner who was originally loyal, after all, it was normal for few people to be homeless, and the fact that he was a traitor was a familiar thing for them.

Bai Ye shook his head, which was equivalent to negating Lu He's speculation.

Stretching out his white gloved right hand, he shook Lu He's frowning brows, and said, "Eight years ago, you used to be Zhao Yan's secretary, and one day, you received an order to contact the city lord of Thousand Nights City in the Xia Kingdom. "Thousand Nights City?" That may be one of Zhao Yan's countless orders, and it is also the most inconspicuous one, Lu He's expression suddenly became confused, "At your signal, a group of thieves entered the hinterland of the Xia Kingdom and slaughtered Liuyun Town. "This ......" Lu He seemed to gradually remember, although he didn't know why Zhao Yan had to deal with a small town thousands of miles away, anyway, it was a small town in another country, and for those of them who stood at the top of the country, even if a group of civilians died, it was just a number, and there would be no loss to this world.

"Are you a survivor?" Lu He immediately figured out the relationship before and after, his face was full of bitterness, "I...... I really don't know what Zhao Yan planned to do at that time, I was just responsible for suing the other party and asking them to let them go, as for what the thieves group was going to do, I only found out after the accident, for that tragedy, I not only deeply regretted and saddened, but also ...... "Shut up!" The sudden burst of scolding made Lu He, who was about to exonerate himself, obediently quiet, Bai Ye's whole body leaned back on the back of the chair, he couldn't see what his expression was while wearing a mask, Lu He was nervous and entangled the fingers of his hands together, his teeth bit his lips hard, and he could almost see blood flowing down.

One is thinking about how to give despair, the other is thinking about how to live.

"Answer me a question. His right hand was raised slightly, stroking the outline of the cold mask, Bai Ye leaned towards Lu He and asked, "Zhao Yan's order came from the Shenwu family, or the Donggong family later, or was it his own meaning?" "If you sue you, can you change my life?" "Your daughter Lu Ying is seven years old this year, right?" The words with a strong sarcasm sounded irrelevant, but Lu He's last bit of hard anger collapsed instantly, "My daughter is innocent......" "My sisters are also innocent." This time it was a resolute answer with almost no emotional tones, and Bai Ye gave an ultimatum.

"I don't know...... I really don't know......" Lu He, who rolled off the sofa, almost crawled over, trying to grab Bai Ye's feet, but was ruthlessly kicked away by the latter, "Who means that thing, I don't know at all, Zhao Yan won't explain it to me, and I won't ask...... I really don't know anything, please, I can pay for my life, don't hurt my daughter......" "My sisters also pleaded with those thieves like that, no one stopped, and even encouraged the residents of Liuyun Town to violate them together, that powerlessness, that pain, I can't bear it alone, if I don't vent it, I will feel like I'm going crazy." Bending down, condescendingly looking down at Lu He, who was in tears on the ground, there was no joy of revenge, but he felt an indescribable heaviness in his heart.

"If you dare to touch my daughter, I will never let you go!" At the moment when the pleading was ineffective, Lu He suddenly pounced on him, Bai Ye's left hand was already ready to pull out the tooth of the oath, the sharp blade pierced through the chest, and then cut down hard, almost to split the whole person!

Blood stained the dark brown carpet red, looking at the scenery of his disembowelment, Lu He showed a strange expression, like pain, and like relief......

"I'm the man who's going to be at the top of politics sooner or later...... How could I die, hahahaha, I ...... I...... I also want to see Xiao Ying's ...... posture of landing on the ground first, there is no sound, and in the whole room, in addition to the aroma of those dishes, there is a burst of bloody smell.

Getting up and walking to the window, the smell of the Lingxiang Tree on his face made Bai Ye take a deep breath slowly.

Originally, he didn't plan to let Lu He die so simply, he should have suffered more, and he also planned to kill his favorite wife and daughter in front of his eyes, but when the family photo on Lu He's wall fell into his eyes, Bai Ye subconsciously chose the most boring revenge and killed him directly.

From this angle, you can see that there is a mother and daughter downstairs walking to the side, the girl is wearing two cute pigtails, and there is an expectant smile on her face, is it because she can see her father immediately? Bai Ye noticed that his cheeks under the mask began to twitch, as if he was enduring some kind of affection, you can imagine how piercing the mother and daughter would be after seeing Lu He's tragic death.

The short sword in his hand was raised again, and it did not fall.

After that, there was no sign of him in front of the window.

In a secluded alley, there is a public wash basin, take off the mask, open the halter, catch the tap water with both hands and splash it on the face, keep patting, keep straining it......

After a long time, I stopped such meaningless actions.

On the edge of the eye socket, there is still fluid that I don't know if it is water or tears.

"Haha......" his throat agitated, and he let out an ugly laugh.

Laughing is not like laughing, it is more like crying.

It's not because of pity for Lu He, and it's not because of that boring conscience.

Just because I remember the heavy rain that day, and the smiles of my sisters.

"I ...... I will never regret it, even if hell awaits me, I will not stop!"

There is a demon crying out inside, why should you spare the mother and daughter? They are also part of the sin.

"I'm not going to show mercy anymore. "Put on the mask again, human feelings disappeared in an instant, and now he is no longer Bai Ye, but a mourner.

A demon who buried the sins that should have gone to the Netherlands a long time ago.

Two hours later, the silence of a bedroom was broken by a phone call, and the owner of the bedroom answered the phone, lit a cigarette, sat on the balcony, and looked out at the moon among the clouds.

His name is Lu Qi, eight years ago, he worked with Lu He and was known as Zhao Yan's right and left hand, just now, he received the news of Lu He's tragic death at home.

Zhao Yan became the president, he and Lu He can naturally be prepared to return to politics again, the difference is that in the past eight years, Lu Qi went to the sea to do business and established a huge business empire, secretly, he also continued to support Zhao Yan, it can be said that compared to Lu He's eight years of muddy, Lu Qi is the real helper behind Zhao Yan.

"There are too many people who want to kill us, God has no home, the Donggong family, who else?" The whole person fell on the recliner, holding the cigarette butt in his right hand, and shook it a few times towards the empty floor, and the mobile phone next to Lu Qi rang at this time, an unfamiliar number, "Is the next person to be me?" The voice was calm and made people feel abnormal, and they connected without hesitation, and there was an expected cold voice on the other side, "Lu Qi?" "That's right, you are the one who killed Lu He?" "Hmph. The other party acquiesced.

"Then let's talk, the price of killing me. Luffy, who spat out a smoke ring in front of him, had the usual cunning expression of a businessman.

The next day, in the downtown area with the highest concentration of pedestrians, an elongated sedan stopped on the side of the road, and Lucci stepped down from it, refused the offer of escort by bodyguards and drivers, and came alone to the agreed bench and sat down.

Meeting in this most crowded place is also planned by Lurgy*.

Unlike Lu He, he is guarded by the bodyguards every day, and he wants to kill himself, unless the opposite side forcibly enters his heavily guarded villa.

"Do you think I won't be able to kill you when I come here?" Just as Lucci was thinking, a voice on the phone rang behind him, it sounded like a very young man's voice, the other party had arrived, on the chair behind him, and now the situation was that the two of them were back to back, in order not to let themselves see his face?

"Sure enough, it's still tender. "There are surveillance cameras in the downtown area, and Lucci is sure that the other party's appearance has appeared in the surveillance, I thought it would be a cautious guy, but it turned out to be so boring, the thumb of his right hand unconsciously rubbed the agate stone on his left hand, this hunting game has been doomed.

Seeing that Lu Qi didn't answer, Bai Ye didn't rush to speak, cocked Erlang's legs, and silently observed the surrounding scenery, of course he couldn't go out with a mask today, but the hat on his head was enough to cover his face, and more importantly, the location of the street surveillance had already been clearly touched by him, and it was absolutely impossible for the other party to see his face.

"I don't know why you want to kill me and Lu He, if you are hired by those families, I can pay a higher price to let you fly away. Luffy lit a cigarette and said leisurely, in his opinion, in this situation, the young man behind him had almost no chance to kill himself.

"That money, let's keep it for you and Zhao Yan to buy a way to hell. Bai Ye lowered the brim of his hat with his fingers, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a man pretending to be reading a newspaper under the traffic light not far away, that guy was probably a policeman, and Lu Qi asked himself to meet here this time, which was an action that had been in collusion with the police a long time ago.

"Young man, there's no room for manoeuvre?" asked Lu Qi, holding back the smile in his heart.

Leeway?

Is there room for manoeuvre in life?

Bai Ye forgot that Lu Qi couldn't see himself and shook his head, and then said: "What is lost cannot be made up for with money, eight years ago, Zhao Yan let a thief group wash the Liuyun Town of the Xia Kingdom in blood, do you remember this incident?" "Xia Kingdom, Liuyun Town?" Lu Qi, who had been in charge of Zhao Yan's economy and diplomacy, was obviously even more impressed, but soon he showed a relieved look, "I see, you are a survivor at that time, avenging your family?" "That's right." Bai Ye had already noticed that many people were quietly approaching this side, and the corners of his mouth were curled, and a touch of disdain appeared.

"Is it worth the lives of a bunch of untouchables? I can give you a sum of money and you can go and buy more and better families. Lu Qi's mockery was undoubtedly revealed, and he felt that the victory was in his hands, and it was not until Bai Ye was not an assassin sent by a behemoth such as a god homeless that he dispelled his last fear.

"Who did that action come from?" Bai Ye continued to ask as if he was not looking.

"Who knows, maybe it's the god homeless, maybe it's the Donggong family, or maybe it's Zhao Yan's own idea, hahahaha...... Anyway, everyone is dead, and whoever instigated it is fine, but if you want me to say, whoever it is, has no time to care about the life or death of a bunch of untouchables, you know, young man. Lu Qi, who stood up, was about to turn around, and the surrounding policemen had already approached at this moment, and Bai Ye was generalized!

"It seems that I can only ask Zhao Yan in person. Bai Ye also stood up, and slowly raised his right hand, as if it was a signal.

"You don't get a chance to see him. Before Luffy could finish speaking, he suddenly felt something go through his head, a bullet flying out of sight.

Then blood poured out, and this man, who was worth hundreds of millions, fell on the street with astonishment, unwillingness and confusion.

"It's stupid. Looking at the policemen who had quickened their pace and gathered around, Bai Ye raised his left hand again, and several flashbangs flew out of his hand, stinging everyone's eyes......

In the toilet of a building somewhere in the distance, Qing Yu put the sniper rifle back into the black box, slowly left the crime scene, and by the way, took down the faulty sign he hung up, and walked away.
