"Sister Xia Rou, where is my sister?" Yang Zhexuan felt a little strange when he saw that she hadn't appeared for a long time.

"She's still in the dressing room—" Before she finished speaking, Xia Rou's heart ached, as if she had suffered a heavy blow.

"Sister Xia Rou, what's wrong with you?"

"Quick...... Go to the powder room! ”

The door of the dressing room was not closed, and it opened with a slight push, and the two people who came in were startled.

Yang Jinnian was lying on the back of the chair, his face was pale, the blood on his wrist stained the white wedding dress, and there was a letter next to him.

"Jin Nian!"

"Sister!"

It turns out that there is really telepathy in this world, and Xia Rou's best friend has an accident, and she feels it. She hugged Jin Nian into her arms, and her tone was flustered and eager: "Zhexuan, call an ambulance!" ”

In the corridors of the hospital, doctors hurriedly walked around. Yang Zhexuan tried Yang Jinnian's pulse all the way, and when he was about to send her to the hospital, the pulse was so weak that he could barely feel it.

"Doctor, how is my sister?" Because of tears, Yang Zhexuan's eyes were hazy.

"The patient was still alive, but ...... She was reluctant to cooperate. ”

"Cooperate ...... What do you mean? ”

"If the patient has a strong desire to survive, then he can be rescued from the ghost gate, but the patient has no desire to survive at all, so ...... Please mourn. ”

What do you say-Yang Zhexuan still wanted to ask, but he couldn't make any sound in his throat, just stood there stiffly, tears uncontrollably.

"Please take good care of your parents after I leave."

"Leave?"

"Oh, I mean after getting married." He suddenly understood what she had said that day, but it was too late.

Leaving means leaving the world, and suicide has been planned for a long time, and how desperate she must have been when she made this decision. Even if she knew that she was a fake Yang Zhexuan, she humbly didn't tell her about killing Yang Zhexuan, just because she was going to leave completely, hoping that someone could take care of her parents.

He cried silently, tears kept sliding, he wiped desperately, not wanting the tears to blur his vision, but it was useless.

It was Yang Jinnian who made him feel the warmth of his family, he couldn't remember his mother's appearance, he felt that he should look more like Yang Jinnian.

The wedding came to an abrupt end, replaced by the bride's funeral, and the groom was on his way to pick up his relatives, not knowing that something had happened to the bride.

"I didn't expect things to turn out like this," Yang's mother sobbed and couldn't breathe, "I just wanted to ...... I want to find her a home. ”

"It's all your own thoughts, you haven't asked Jin Nian if she needs it, you are a group of good people, you like a group of good people to bully her a good person, now that Jin Nian is gone, you are satisfied!"

Xia Rou roared angrily, she hadn't spoken like this for a long time, she always spoke softly, always thinking about other people's feelings when she spoke, but this time she completely exploded.

"Murder and murder, this is the real murder method, although she committed suicide, but you made her completely lose her confidence in living!"

Xia Rou's eyes were red, and after she finished almost shouting, she cried. The real crying, the whimpering sound is heartbreaking.

She trembled and opened the bloodstained letter—Jin Nian's handwritten suicide note. It was an extremely neat suicide note, with a small number of words, and a simple three-paragraph sentence.

In the suicide note, Jin Nian thanked her family for her hard work, and apologized for deceiving Mr. Zhang Yu, he is a very good person, but unfortunately she has no plans to get married.

The last paragraph is sorry for her own suicidal behavior, which caused everyone trouble.

After reading the suicide note, Xia Rou collapsed on the cold bench in the hospital, and her vision blurred again.

One page, two pages, three pages, and before you know it, three pages have been written. His writing is not brilliant, but it is full of inexplicable longing.

Although Ji Wu's death had nothing to do with Song Chang, it still affected his feelings for Song Lanxi after all, not that he didn't love her anymore, but that he didn't find the murderer, there was a stone hanging in the air in his heart, and he couldn't sink down. Song Chang's bracelet is also the only evidence that he can't fully devote himself to his relationship with his sister.

He needed to calm down for a while, but her smiling face came to mind from time to time.

Thinking about it so much, he wrote down everything he wanted to say to her, whether it was said in front of her or embarrassed to say it in his heart.

Suddenly, the door opened, and a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

Fang Xu had seen him many times, but he had never seen his face, only that he was a withered leaf butterfly.

"Who are you?" Fang Xu's voice didn't panic in the slightest, just looked at him calmly.

"Fang Xu," the man turned around, revealing his handsome features, "I'm the one who can help you." ”

It's him! The person I met at Song Chang's wedding, if I remember correctly, he was Yang Zhexuan of Rongle Hotel.

"You don't have to be surprised, let me introduce myself again, I'm a withered leaf butterfly, and you can also call me Lu Xiao for the time being." Lu Xiao greeted Fang Xu in a very everyday tone, as if he was his old friend.

"I didn't expect you to hide so deeply, what about Yang Zhexuan of Rongle Hotel?"

"I'm sure you can guess that since I can replace him quietly, it means that he is no longer there."

Fang Xu said indignantly: "How can you be so cruel and hurt an innocent person for money." ”

"Aren't you the same, you know better than anyone else the dangers of phantom powder."

"You!" Fang Xu calmed down his emotions for a moment, "You just said that you wanted to help me, so do you know who killed Ji Wu?" ”

Lu Xiao wanted to answer that it was him, but his purpose in coming to Fang Xu was not to confess, but to wake up Fang Xu.

"It's someone in the organization."

"What?" Fang Xu looked stunned.

"Withered Leaf Tiger likes people who keep their duties, you should know better than anyone else what Ji Wu has done."

Fang Xu glared at him, as if he had nothing to say, so he changed his question: "You didn't come to me just to talk to me about this, what other purpose do you have?" ”

Lu Xiao said: "Seeking money and killing our conscience is unbearable, I came to you to save you." ”

"Help me? I don't need you to save me. Fang Xu has a tough attitude and cannot be said.

"Fang Xu, listen to me, Ji Wu is no longer here, you don't need to fulfill his wish before death and continue to do things that hurt the heavens and reason."

"Don't you think you're not qualified to say this, the reason why I do things for Ji Wu is because he is kind to me, what about you? Isn't it also because he adopted you to do things for Liu Zhong? ”

"He adopted me?" A smile appeared on Lu Xiao's lips, and the smile was very bleak and empty, "I'm just a child stolen by them." ”

Memories are a strange thing, sometimes once a hole is torn open, the memories behind it will flow out like water.

Lu Xiao remembered some memories from the past, which were like something buried in the deepest part of his mind, and suddenly remembered at a certain moment.

He thought that the first meeting with Lu Jue at that time was purely accidental, but as he remembered more, he realized that it was a conspiracy at all, a conspiracy that had been thoroughly planned from the beginning. He's just a pawn, at the mercy of others, surrounded by lies.

"What?" Fang Xu looked surprised, he felt that Lu Xiao was like a freshly baked tragedy, different, with the clear imprint of another world.

He has a bad fate, he is a child abducted by bad people, and after so many years of recognizing thieves as his father, in the end the most pitiful person is himself.

"A person's life will always come to a critical point, and the choices you make will be your future life. Fang Xu, don't be blinded by hatred, and don't wait for things to reach an irreparable step before regretting it. ”

"And how are you going to save me?"

"I'm here to tell you where the real deal is in Phantom Stacks."

"Where? Isn't it a building in Zone C? ”

"It's a building in District D, you think it's so easy to find out where Phantom Stacks are traded? It was just fake news released by Liu Zhong, and it was just a rumor. ”

"Is this news reliable?" As if remembering something, Fang Xu narrowed his eyes, "The people of the Withered Leaf Organization have always been cunning, or you and this news itself is another ploy of Liu Zhong. ”

"I know you have many questions, but please believe me, the reason why I am telling you this is because I don't want to make myself wrong again and again," Lu Xiao's face passed a shadow and muttered, "The good is not pure enough, the evil is not thorough enough, and the only one who suffers is himself." ”

After speaking, Lu Xiao turned around and left. Fang Xu is a smart person, some things are useless, otherwise it will only be redundant.

Fang Xu stopped in place and was stunned for a few seconds, and when Lu Xiao had already stepped out of the door with one foot, he looked at his back and said:

"Have you ever wondered what will happen to you?"

He wanted to avenge Ji Wu, and the only way to do this was to destroy the withered leaf organization and catch the withered leaf tiger, but then Lu Xiao couldn't escape.

Lu Xiao stopped, but did not turn around: "If the phantom powder is not removed for a day, the Windy City will not be at peace for a day, for me, only the future is meaningful, and the past will let it pass, anyway, it is a nightmare, not worth remembering." ”

Lu Xiao's voice gradually drifted away, Fang Xu swallowed his worries and questions, and his eyes gradually became sharp.

After coming out of Fang Xu's place, Lu Xiao was still a little uneasy, he was afraid that Fang Xu would not trust him and did not reveal the location. Thoughtful, he dialed Song Chang's phone.

"Hey, Zhexuan." Song Chang didn't expect Yang Zhexuan to call him suddenly.

"Song Chang, it may be that I am too talkative, there is something I want to tell you."

"What's the matter, let's talk about it."

"I've heard from the hotel tenants that there is a group of people in Area D who often secretly transport boxes of things at night, I think it's suspicious, could it be related to the Phantom Stacks you investigated earlier?"

"Zone D? Are you sure it's Zone D? ”

The security committee found out that the location of the withered leaf organization's transaction was in Area C, but Song Chang went to Area C to investigate and did not find a building that matched the description. Area C and Area D are one in the south and the other in the north, which are far apart, and if it is really as Yang Zhexuan said, then the situation is very unfavorable for the arrest of Liu Zhong.

"I'm sure I heard it right, it's indeed in Zone D."

"Thank you for telling me the news, I'll check it out."

"You're welcome." After saying this, Yang Zhexuan on the other end of the phone seemed to fall into silence, and he didn't speak for a while, just when Song Chang was about to ask him out loud, he spoke, "Song Chang, in fact, I envy you." ”

"Envy me, why do you say that, you are the young master of Rongle Hotel, it should be that I envy you."

"I envy you for having love, family, and friendship, and I ...... I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that all of a sudden, making you laugh. ”

"Zhexuan, are you in a bad mood? Come to the association another day, let's have a good drink with Sun Bo and Brother San. ”

"Haha, okay, but I'm afraid you can only watch us drink too much."
