"I love you, I am a monster, but I love you."——"Lolita"

The stone benches are placed around a lotus pond that has already dried up. A bronze statue stands between the mud and dead branches and leaves. The bronze statue is abstract in shape, and what it is carved is basically indistinguishable by the naked eye. One side is very polished, and the distorted phantom of the human figure can be seen from above.

Just now, Fei Du raised his eyes inadvertently and met the eyes reflected on the bronze statue.

The bronze statue is not a mirror after all, the light and shadow are very fuzzy, even if the other party is male, female, old or young, I can’t see clearly, but somehow, when I saw those eyes, Fei Du’s heart became unreasonable and he swallowed the vanilla puff. Stuck in his chest, he raised his head subconsciously and followed the shadow on the bronze statue to look around——

There are no courtyard walls around this old community. Several buildings are mixed together to form a group. It is ambiguous with the border of the busy street. There is a bus stop nearby. Because of improper planning in the early years, it has invaded the interior of the community. Few people lined up outside the bushes, wave after wave came and walked, the business of a few small shops on the street was quite prosperous, at this time it was just before noon, and some people were already standing in front of a few food stalls.

The crowd is bustling. There are community residents wearing pajamas, passers-by in the outer area, private car owners who use the roads in the community as shortcuts, and people who eat, wait for seats, and come and go. Courier and food delivery staff...

The owner of those eyes is extremely alert, and has quietly hidden into the crowd, Fei Du did not find any suspicious signs.

He immediately stood up and said to Chenchen: "Go, we are going home."

Chenchen had no sense of crisis, she dragged a long "ah" disappointedly, looked reluctantly at the snack bar on the street side, she licked the remaining cream on her fingers, her eyes rolled, making sense A valid request was made to Fei Du: "I still have pocket money. You just invited me to eat a puff, or should I please come back now? I still want to have a matcha."

"Another day," Fei Du gently and involuntarily pushed the back of her head, "I'm going to have lunch."

Chenchen was forced to stand up with him: "But I don't like to eat. I still have a lot of dishes that I don't like."

"Well, I am actually too," Fei Du frankly admitted that his prince was sick in front of the little girl. After that, he changed his voice and said, "But when you grow up, it will be fine. No one will find you picky eaters anymore."

Chenchen looked up at him speechlessly, feeling that these adults were so shameless, at this moment, she suddenly saw Fei Du's expression, and she was taken aback.

The preteen child is half old and not young, and has some careful thoughts of his own, and can basically understand the face of an adult. Chenchen originally thought that Fei Du was playing with her just now, but when he looked up, he found him She was frowning slightly, her face a little too serious.

She couldn't help becoming nervous, reaching out and grabbing Fei Du's clothes corner: "Big brother, what's the matter?"

While talking, the two passed by a residential building. The windows of the corridor on the first floor just opened outwards, spreading out an arc. Fei Du calmly let the little girl walk in front of him, and kept his head down to talk to her, and walked to Here, he suddenly raised his eyes without warning.

I caught a pair of shadowy eyes on the clear window!

The man wore sunglasses and a mask, and his entire face was wrapped tightly. Fei Du pressed Chenchen’s shoulders and turned his head quickly. At the same time, about two hundred meters behind them, a person went into the bushes next to them one by one, and disappeared in a flash. Fei Du just watched. He cleared his rickety figure and gray hair.

Old man?

Chen Chen didn't know what was going on, so she looked at him with trepidation.

Fei Du's icy eyes penetrated the lens on the bridge of his nose, swept over the crowd not far away, and asked, "Do you usually go to school to send it to you?"

"Yes...Yes," Chenchen said softly, "My parents are at home, and they will pick me up. If they are not, my sister will take me on the subway. If my sister works overtime, I will stay at school for a while. , The school has a special teacher to supervise it."

Fei Du nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Have you seen a strange grandfather nearby?"

Chenchen thought about it for a moment, and shook his head doubtfully at him.

Two people quickly walked into the residential building. The light gray old building blocked the line of sight from the shadows. After some time, an old man with a rickety back walked out slowly from behind the bus stop sign.

He covered his face, with huge sunglasses on his face, and holding a walking stick in his hand, like a person with impaired eyesight, knocking back and forth on the ground with a pathfinder walking stick.

The people around each had their earphones plugged in, mostly playing with their phones indifferently, not paying attention to his staggering footsteps.

The look of the lens is an excellent cover for him, the sun cannot penetrate, but the greedy sight can.

After a long journey, the line of sight penetrated time and space, and stared at the place where the little girl was just now.

Her floral dress seems to be beating with floating light, and the crystal hairpin is set against a clear face. It is the only bright color in the entire world within his field of vision, and his childish silhouette is reflected in him. The fundus of his eyes burned violently in an instant, leaving a layered outline on his retina.

But there was a terrible basilisk guarding the Forbidden Fruit. He remembered the gaze of the man beside the girl, and hid in the shadow fearfully. Fear and desire converged into a unique heartbeat. He pursed his lips thirstly. He fell heavily backwards, leaning against a tree trunk, his chest undulating violently, fascinated with horror.

Like a person drowning or taking poison.

After a meal of puffs, the elevator has been repaired. Fei Du pressed down the twelfth floor and entered the elevator with Chenchen.

Chenchen asked carefully: "Brother, what happened just now?"

Fei Du had a meal, but did not comfort the girl: "I saw a very suspicious person-remember in the future, when you are alone with an adult, you should pay more attention to yourself."

"I know, I’m in the graduating class when school starts, and I’m not a first-grade kid," Chenchen imitated the tone of an adult, counting one by one with her fingers, "Keep your distance from strangers and don’t eat. What the stranger gives, the stranger asks for help, politely ask them to call the police..."

"People who are not strangers should be more careful," Fei Du said, tapping on her forehead. "Don't get in an adult's car alone, and don't stay alone with an adult in a place where there are no other people-like now , It’s not safe for you to stay with me, what if I’m a bad guy?"

Chenchen covered her forehead and stared at the man who claimed to be the bad guy: "Huh?"

"Including the teachers in your school, as well as the grandpa and grandma who seem to be inconvenient to move, remember?"

Chenchen couldn't help but shudder. At this time, the elevator reached the twelfth floor, and the iron door opened in response. She whispered: "Why? Brother, I'm a little scared."

"Knowing that fear is a good thing, because beautiful things are like porcelain." Fei Du reached out his hand to block the elevator door and signaled the girl to go out first. "For them, the most dangerous thing is often not the cat running around in the room. "

"What is that?"

Fei Du looked into the girl's eyes and said softly: "It's the porcelain that didn't realize it was fragile."

Luo Wenzhou was in front of the meter box, dangling a cigarette, leaning against the wall, waiting for them.

"You two will buy a fuse for half a year?" Luo Wenzhou took out the flashlight and a flat-head screwdriver and put them aside, "If you don't come back, the frozen fish in the refrigerator will escape from prison."

Chen Chen, looking for a sense of security, stepped on his short legs and ran into the house quickly.

Fei Du took the screwdriver from Luo Wenzhou's hand, unpacked the meter box very skillfully, removed the blown fuse, and then used the old-fashioned fuse to turn the two ends of the line a few times and twist it lightly. To use pliers, he swipes the tip of a flat-head screwdriver to cut off the small piece of fuse. He stretched his hand twice to make sure that the equipment was strong, and he turned his hand back on the switch again.

There was a beep from the room behind him, and the refrigerator and air conditioner were all resurrected at the same time. The whole process did not take more than a minute. The smoke that Luo Wenzhou was holding in his mouth had not had time to lighten it.

Luo Wenzhou looked at him, and suddenly realized that Fei Du had completely separated from the juvenile category and was a man.

He sees Fei Du, his vision is often split-when tit-for-tat, Luo Wenzhou feels that Fei Du is a dangerous scourge. He is a **** with a disposition and lawlessness, and may explode at any time, and he will be hit with just one mouth, especially not. speak English.

When he is very calm, he always thinks of the thin boy who shrank at the door of the villa back then. Sometimes he is worried about him, and sometimes he can't help but over-caring-it's like a big brother, without distracting thoughts. care.

I don’t know if Fei Du just cramped and provoked in the stairwell. Suddenly, Luo Wenzhou’s bisected perspective actually meant to be merged into one. Deviations and fallacies were corrected for each other. There is a small piece of objective clarity-Fei Du is neither a dangerous anti-social nor a poor little boy. He is first of all a man, and a very good-looking young man, knowingly and interestingly, and wearing a blatant and dignified formality. , With his pipa half-hidden all over his body, he wrote "Welcome to sleep at any time".

Luo Wenzhou thought, if he weren't Fei Du, just a stranger passing by in the street or in a bar, he would probably be the type that makes people think about it for a long time.

But...why is there a precondition of "if he is not Fei Du"?

Does Luo Wenzhou think about life, and even absent from snacks when eating?-Tao Ran's table is not enough, so many dishes can't be served, so he has to bring them directly to share. Luo Wenzhou inadvertently scooped a large piece of "sugar elbows" "In Fei Du's small plate, I just remembered that when I put it in, it was "below the knee", so the young master wouldn't eat it.

Luo Wenzhou moved for a while, before he could speak, he saw Fei Du poking lightly with the tip of his chopsticks, frowning and staring at the hooves for a moment, and then caught him with disgust. In his bowl, his expression seemed to smell the smell of imported cat food.

Luo Wenzhou: "..."

Sure enough, everything "below the knee" and "pharyngitis" are all the grandsons of this bastard.

Except for the city bureau gang, Fei Du and Chang Ning are both extroverted and talkative types. They can quickly blend into the atmosphere. They look nothing like outsiders. Lang Qiao also pretends to be foreigners with long horns. Two bottles of red wine came over. Except for the minors, one person poured a glass to warmly celebrate Mr. Tao's joining the army of house slave dogs.

Lang Qiao cleverly saw the thick single arrow between Tao Ran and Chang Ning. In front of Chang Ning, he organized an impromptu "Vice-Tao Praise" in front of Chang Ning. From how Tao Ran loves his post, he talks about how he loves life and loves children. Animals also listed the various arduous struggles that Vice Team Tao had made over the years in order to protect the vast "broken reminders" with the sorrowful Captain Luo. Finally, under the watchful eyes of Luo Wenzhou with a smile, her words were alive and well. Turns around, out of thin air, made up a strong beauty suitor for Tao Ran, scared Tao Ran hurriedly, begging this female benefactor not to be innocent for no reason.

"Tao brother is really patient," Fei Du interjected in a timely manner to ease the embarrassment, "I will definitely be a model dad if I have children in the future. When I was young, I gave him trouble."

Tao Ran waved his hands with red face and red ears.

Chang Ning looked at him curiously.

Fei Du took a sip of red wine: "My mother was not early. Brother Tao happened to be the policeman handling my mother's case. At that time, my father didn't take care of me. He took care of me for a long time. Actually I was over a decade old at that time, and even if no one was caring, I would never die from starvation, but it was with him that I knew what "serious life" means. Sister, don’t think that he is always dealing with blindly, but he actually takes care of others. Come, I can think of everything for you."

Chang Ning finished listening to this group of people, you said and I promoted Tao Ran, but didn't feel anything else. He first realized the popularity of Vice Tao, and couldn't help but smile at Tao Ran with his head tilted.

Tao Ran’s drink volume was originally better than "pour a glass". After being filled with more than half a glass of red wine, his head was dizzy, and his dream lover looked at him with a smile. He completely lost his thinking ability. I was embarrassed to talk nonsense: "No, no, really...really not. I was not taking care of Tipping Du alone at the time. Everyone cared about you. Even my master heard about it later and would often ask a few... Who is there—Wen Zhou, don’t look at him and don’t talk about it. In fact, he has secretly seen you several times, and he asked me for your game console..."

Luo Wenzhou heard something wrong, and quickly gave him a kick under the table, but it was too late.

Tao Ran's little sense of balance was wiped out under his feet, and his whole person tilted on one side, knocking down a cardboard box that had not had time to pack next to him.

Various professional books, idle books, folders, and notebooks fell all over the place.

Fei Du and Luo Wenzhou stood alone at the corner of the table and froze.

Lang Qiao carelessly touched Luo Wenzhou with his elbow: "Really, Boss, you have done this before, so embarrassing."

Luo Wenzhou: "..."

You know it's embarrassing and you still advertise it!

Fighting Fei Du's heavy gaze, he bit his scalp and gave a dry cough. He wanted to stand up to clean up the cardboard box Tao Ran touched.

"It's boring, just talk nonsense when I drink too much." Luo Wenzhou changed the subject abruptly, picked up a yellowed notebook and shook ashes, "Hey, why are Master's old notes with you?"

His voice fell, and a pencil portrait fell out of the notebook. There was a picture of a man with good features and good manners, but his eyes outside the paper were vaguely suppressed by something dark.

The drawing paper is dated more than twenty years ago, and there are notes in the corners.

"Wu Guangchuan-the bodies of six girls have not been found yet."
