The bedroom door was hidden, and the smell was scorching inside.

Liang Zhe deliberately stayed in the living room for a while, listening to Deng Zhongquan tell what brand the furniture was used and how much money was spent on the decoration, and then pushed the door into the bedroom, the sheets were wrinkled, the quilt was messy, the pillows were crooked, and there was no one on the bed. There was a pair of glasses on the bedside table, the lenses were as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, he knew it was Pang Yi's, and before Deng Zhongquan came in, he put the glasses and a small key in his pocket, and kicked a piece of women's underwear on the ground into the bottom of the bed.

"Why is it so messy in bed." Deng Zhongquan walked in, frowning slightly.

"It's fine." Liang Zhe bent down, smoothed the sheets, and straightened the pillow.

Deng Zhongquan smiled, and then explained the layout of the bedroom.

"Is there a coffee machine?" Liang Zhe asked suddenly.

"This one isn't there yet, but you reminded me to buy it tomorrow." Deng Zhongquan looked at Liang Zhe, his eyes showing affection, "Liang Zhe, it's been a long time since we've chatted so well, I miss it so much." ”

"Indeed." Liang Zhe nodded. Although he and Pang Yi have more topics in common, Deng Zhongquan is also an integral part of the trio, Deng Zhongquan is socially strong and broad-minded, and in the early days of his career, he gave them a lot of advice, occasionally showed the characteristics of a human temperament, and even fought together in college.

"Can I trouble you?" Liang Zhe looked at Deng Zhongquan.

"You say." Deng Zhongquan put his hands behind his back.

"I want to drink coffee, I see one outside the community."

Deng Zhongquan looked at Liang Zhe's face intently, and after a moment, he smiled heartily.

"That's you." Deng Zhongquan patted Liang Zhe on the shoulder, "If you are someone else, let alone let me buy coffee, just making this request will be scolded by me." Okay, I'll buy it for you, you can go around as you please. ”

After Deng Zhongquan left, Liang Zhe closed the bedroom door, took out his mobile phone, turned on the video mode, opened the double-door wardrobe, Pang Yi and Feng Yuan hid inside, Pang Yi was half-naked, holding his clothes, Feng Yuan was disheveled, and there were handcuffs on his wrists.

"Deng Zhongquan is gone?" Feng Yuan was the first to come out, "Liang Zhe, you just don't see anything, even if I owe you a personal favor, I will definitely pay it back in the future." Then she shouted to Pang Yi: "Don't hurry up and get dressed and leave!" ”

Pang Yi hurriedly put on his clothes, but his glasses were gone, he put his face close to the bedside table, and groped around with his two hands, not only did he not find his glasses, but the handcuff key was gone, and Feng Yuan was still being handcoaged at this time.

"What a crap!" Feng Yuan scolded angrily, "Don't look for it, leave here first." ”

"I'm here with the handcuff keys, and I'm here with the glasses." Liang Zhe took a chair and sat in front of the door, blocking the door with his body, "If you want to walk out of this door safely and soundly, you need to answer my question." ”

"What's the problem?" Feng Yuan didn't find underwear, so she hurriedly put on her skirt.

"Where did you get Yangyang?!"

"What nonsense are you talking about-" Feng Yuan's face turned cold.

"I don't want to repeat it, and you don't have time." Liang Zhe happened to receive a call from Deng Zhongquan asking him what flavor of coffee he was drinking, and he turned on the speakerphone and said, "Come back, I found Feng here-"

Feng Yuan immediately rushed in front of Liang Zhe and gestured to Liang Zhe with her mouth, indicating that she would fully cooperate.

"Cockroaches found." Liang Zhe changed his words.

After hanging up the phone, Feng Yuan squatted on Liang Zhe's lap, put her palm on Liang Zhe's thigh, begged Liang Zhe to open the handcuffs for her first, Liang Zhe ignored it, she was coquettish to Liang Zhe again, it was still ineffective, unexpectedly, she suddenly crashed into Liang Zhe, knocked Liang Zhe to the ground, pressed Liang Zhe sideways, and shouted to Pang Yi: "Don't hurry up yet!" ”

Pang Yi quickly stepped forward, but without his glasses, he almost lost his combat effectiveness, he went to press Liang Zhe, but he tripped and fell to the ground first, his eyes widened, his hands were scratching in the air, and he couldn't even tell which one was Liang Zhe.

Feng Yuan took the opportunity to open the door, but before he could get out, he was dragged back by Liang Zhe by the hair and fell directly to the ground. Liang Zhe closed the door hard, his face turned red from anger, he wanted to settle it peacefully, he didn't want to be rude, but he didn't expect Feng Yuan to be so stubborn, even so, there was no need for him to stay. He took out the earrings in a plastic bag from his pocket and said, "I dug them up in the woods." Five years ago, on the night Yang Yang disappeared, the two of you had a tryst in the woods, and that's when the earrings fell, right?! ”

Pang Yi approached the plastic bag, opened his eyes and looked carefully, and saw the two letters on the earrings: LO. He screamed, climbed back like a ghost, bumped into Feng Yuan, and was kicked away by Feng Yuan.

Liang Zhe stared at Pang Yi: "This earring is your birthday gift to He Ranran that year." ”

Pang Yi looked left and right, his eyes bulging outward, and his hands were groping on the floor.

Liang Zhe dialed He Ranran's phone and turned on the speakerphone.

He Ranran's voice came: "Liang Zhe, is there something wrong?" ”

Liang Zhe said: "I'm with Pang Yi, he's-"

Pang Yi climbed forward with a rolling belt, trying to snatch the mobile phone, Liang Zhe was prepared, took a step back, and while picking up the mobile phone, he pulled out a switchblade from his waist and opened it with a snap, and the tip of the knife was aimed at Pang Yi. Pang Yi froze in place, slowly leaned his face forward, and after seeing that it was a real knife, he immediately took two steps back. Liang Zhe threw Pang Yi's glasses over, and Pang Yi put them on in a hurry and saw Liang Zhe's resolute expression and resolute gaze clearly.

He Ranran's voice came: "Where are you?" Is something wrong? ”

Liang Zhe was about to speak, but Pang Yi knelt on the ground with a puff.

Liang Zhe pressed the hands-free and covered the earpiece.

Pang Yi hugged Liang Zhe's legs: "Please, don't tell Ran Ran." ”

Liang Zhe didn't say a word, and the call was not interrupted.

Pang Yi raised his head: "Yangyang's disappearance really has nothing to do with us, we just happened to meet-"

Liang Zhe immediately asked: "What did you meet?" ”

Pang Yi looked back at Feng Yuan, Feng Yuan stood in front of the window at some point, she saw Deng Zhongquan who was walking towards this building with two cups of coffee, compared to He Ranran, Deng Zhongquan's crisis was more imminent.

Feng Yuan turned around and came back, his tone hurried: "You swear you won't say anything about today?" ”

Liang Zhe nodded: "I just want to get Yangyang back, I don't care about your business." ”

Feng Yuan and Pang Yi glanced at each other, and the eyes of the two of them revealed the same nervousness and panic, on one side was Deng Zhongquan who was walking, and on the other hand was He Ranran, who was connected to the phone. It is conceivable that if Deng Zhongquan knew that they were cheating in their new home, what kind of angry reaction would they have, Feng Yuan also thought about taking the majority of the property after the divorce in the future, and it is estimated that he will be cleaned out of the house. As for Pang Yi, how should he face He Ranran's storm, just thinking about it makes his scalp numb.

"We lost the earrings." Feng Yuan finally spoke, "We did meet Yangyang that night. ”

Under Feng Yuan's narration, the curtain of truth opened a new corner after five years.

July 9, 2018 at half past nine in the evening.

Half an hour before Yang Yang's disappearance.

Feng Yuan and Pang Yi, who are five years younger than now, meet in the grove.

In the shadow of the tree, Pang Yi, who had missed it for a long time, hugged Feng Yuan's warm body tightly.

"Where's the earrings?" Feng Yuan pushed Pang Yi away, his eyes lit up, and he pointed at Pang Yi's chest with his index finger.

"Here." Pang Yi hurriedly handed over the earrings, "Why do you like these earrings, it's not worth a few dollars." ”

"You don't understand, it's not the money that matters." Feng Yuan raised her pointed chin and looked at the amber earrings in the cold skylight, revealing a satisfied smile. She didn't want to wear these earrings at all, she had many better ones, but she felt uncomfortable when she saw He Ranran's triumphant look when she wore earrings, she wanted to prove that Pang Yi cared about her more than He Ranran, and it was also to test Pang Yi's obedience to her and lay a good foundation for future training.

Pang Yi hugged Feng Yuan again, pecking quickly on Feng Yuan's slender neck, making a sizzling sound.

"Take your glasses off." Feng Yuan said, "You don't wear glasses to be like that." ”

Pang Yi obediently took off his glasses, put them in the pocket of his shirt, and was kissing Feng Yuan when he heard a sound of broken footsteps, Pang Yi turned around and saw Yangyang standing nearby, holding a wicker in his hand, Feng Yuan also saw Yangyang, Yangyang screamed, turned around and ran, Feng Yuan pushed Pang Yi, Pang Yi didn't think about it, immediately chased after him, and covered Yangyang's mouth. At this time, there was a sound of talking outside the woods, Pang Yi was distracted, and was bitten by Yang Yang, after Yang Yang broke free, he ran in the direction of the sound, Feng Yuan followed quickly, and stepped on the glasses that Pang Yi had dropped on the ground.

When they hurried out of the grove, they realized that one of the earrings had fallen off.

"That's all." Feng Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, as if she felt relieved after saying it.

"Lying and the whole family is dead." Pang Yi's face was solemn, and Liang Zhe had already hung up He Ranran's phone at this time.

Liang Zhetuo thought about it, and there was a sound of the door opening outside, it should be Deng Zhongquan coming back.

"Whose voice did you hear in the woods?" Liang Zhe asked.

"I don't know......" Pang Yi waved his hand in a panic.

"There were only a few of them!" Liang Zhe raised his voice.

"It's He Ranran and their son Pang Jinjin." Feng Yuan preemptively said.

"Anything else?" Liang Zhe stared at the eyes of the two.

"Not really." Feng Yuan and Pang Yi replied in unison.

Liang Zhe took a deep breath, a little disappointed by the result, but anger also rose.

"Pang Yi, I regard you as my best friend." Liang Zhe gritted his teeth and said, "You concealed the clues because of adultery with Feng Yuan, if you had said it at that time, maybe the result would have been completely different." ”

"Liang Zhe—" Deng Zhongquan's voice sounded outside.

Pang Yi hid in the closet and whispered, "I'm sorry......"

Liang Zhe saw tears flashing in Pang Yi's eyes, he knew that it was caused by nervousness and fear, not repentance and guilt, if Pang Yi really had an uneasy conscience, he would not have watched him search for five years, this clue really has nothing to do with Yangyang's disappearance, but being able to sort out Yangyang's path before his disappearance will help the investigation.

Pang Yi is not his friend at all, and he has always been thinking about Pang Yi.

A tear slipped down from the corner of Liang Zhe's eyes, for Yangyang and for himself.

The door opened, and Deng Zhongquan stood at the door, looking at Liang Zhe suspiciously and sympathetically.

"Thank you." Liang Zhe took the coffee with a bitter face, "And your new home." ”

"We're brothers." Deng Zhongquan patted Liang Zhe on the shoulder, "If you have difficulties, just say it, I will definitely help if I can." ”

The two went downstairs together, and in the elevator, Deng Zhongquan sent an invitation to Liang Zhe again.

"You won't have to move tomorrow, you will open the stove and warm the house the day after tomorrow, you must come, no one else, just you and Pang Yi's family. You know, in this city, I only have two of you're friends, and the rest are stakeholders. ”

"I'll take a look." Liang Zhe saw the sincere sincerity in Deng Zhongquan's eyes, and his heart loosened a little, he realized that in the past five years, Deng Zhongquan's attitude towards him has never changed, and it is even better than before.

The two were separated outside the community.

After Liang Zhe got in the car, he received a text from his wife: Bring the earrings, let's go find He Ranran.

Liang Zhezheng had this intention, he nodded, and looked at the empty back row: "Are you seated?" ”

The wife sent a text: Sit down, not in the back row, next to you.

Liang Zhe looked at the passenger seat and showed a smile that he hadn't seen for a long time: "Then let's go." ”
