Chapter 69: Past, Present, Future
Night in Edo, Kasuga Festival.
The tortoise and snake lanterns are lit, and the fireworks are like coral living creatures growing in the night sky, colorful.
The streets and alleys were crowded with people, and the sound of hawking kept coming and going.
It's been over four months since the magic ended.The world is harmonious and the sun and moon are clear.
In order to celebrate the end of the magic power and to celebrate the new emperor's enthronement, the shogunate held a spring festival.
The purchase and sale of spring festivals are all free to the common people, and the bill is paid by the shogunate.
"The new emperor is about to ascend the throne! This time, it's a female emperor."
"Since Heian-kyo moved the capital, there hasn't been a female emperor. The new emperor has also made a special trip to Edo to participate in the spring festival celebrated by the whole people tonight."
"Although the Spring Festival is good, how can it be worthwhile for the new emperor to come all the way to Kanto?"
"You mean... there is another secret?"
"The new emperor is pregnant, but she doesn't know whether it's a boy or a girl. For this reason, she traveled from Kansai to Kanto, just to find someone to watch the baby."
Food, hardware, juggling, jade artifacts... Various stalls are displayed on the street, and people talk happily while shopping.
Separated by a thick imperial wall, the house inside the wall is quiet and strict, the house is brightly lit, and there are guards outside the wall.
"Please take a look at the Xiaolin family. Is the baby in my womb a boy or a girl?"
It was the empress who had just ascended the throne who spoke.
She is pregnant with Liujia, she is of a certain age, with shallow lines clinging to the corners of her eyes, she still has a quiet and dignified beauty.
She unbuttoned her haori, revealing her high, swollen belly.
The fetus in the womb curled up in the amniotic fluid, and happened to open its eyes, meeting Lin Qingquan's gaze.
He seemed very excited and kicked his mother.
"Boy." Lin Qingquan said, "It's a boy."
"That's great!" The new emperor said contentedly while touching his stomach, "Just now, it was the first time he kicked me."
Asuka died, and there was no royal descendant of the right age.The shogunate had no choice but to elect Asuka's aunt as the empress.
She is destined to be a short-lived transitional emperor.But if she is pregnant with a son, then her son must be the next emperor, and the rest of her life will be more decent.
The new emperor offered some rewards and left with the maids and officers.
Hei Mulian walked out from the corner, staring at the back of the new emperor with a bad complexion.
The child in her womb is the reincarnation of Asuka.
Asuka, who was born in the royal family, was reincarnated into the royal family again after his death.In the next seven lives, he will be reincarnated in the royal family. Until the eighth life, he will be reincarnated as a bird, and he will be shot down by a child's slingshot and die when he is flying.
And the child who shot the slingshot was the reincarnation of the servant whom he beat to death with the idol.
"What are you thinking about, so preoccupied?" Lin Qingquan asked him.
Hei Mulian chose not to speak.It is impossible for him to let the word "Flying Bird" enter Lin Qingquan's ears again.
"I want to take you out for a walk." Hei Mulian smiled, "It's very lively outside, and the things for sale are much more complete than the Xuanwu Festival."
The crowds are turbulent, and the stalls are full of tricks.There are many customers, and there are many people who attract customers.
Lin Qingquan stopped in front of a stall.Hei Mulian followed him and stopped.
"How do you sell this lock?" He pointed to a silver lock.
This silver lock is very familiar to him, it is called Suoxin lock.It is rumored that if the blood of two people is injected into the keyhole, the bond between the two will last for a lifetime.
Jing Ani once asked for Suo Xinsuo, and even admitted that she would be locked with Kusama Hui for the rest of her life.
"Your Excellency is really discerning." The vendor said, "This is a magic weapon made by the Abbe priest of the Kasuga Taisha Shrine. It usually sells for ten small pens."
"I want it." Lin Qingquan once owned this lock.It's just that it's already lost during the turbulent journey.
Hei Mulian raised her eyebrows, and asked leisurely: "Qingquan, what did you buy this lock for?" He had some ulterior motives, "Who do you want to use it for?"
"It's for Kusama Hui, but I don't know when I will meet him. Last month, he became a monk in a temple in Meinong. He shaved his head, and he may not recognize him when he sees him."
"So it was for him to use." The old god Hei Mulian was there, but he was sour, "He is a monk, and he will never use it."
"I gave it to you for the mirror." Lin Qingquan smiled and coaxed him, "Besides, what do you care about? The bond between us is more than the level of a lock. This lock is not good for us. .”
Too.Hei Mulian thought to herself.
But he didn't admit it, so as not to reveal that he was actually a narrow-minded person.
After huddling in the crowd for a while, the two came to a deserted stall.
The stall owner is a foreign woman with a big nose, a robe and black boots, black nails and white hair.
"Want to see your past and future lives, my lord." She said in unskilled Kanto, "I'll take you."
She was talking to Lin Qingquan, her eyes fixed.
"How are you going to take me?"
"My lord, please pay attention to what I say next..."
The foreign woman said every word: "Jellyfish, jellyfish! There are jellyfish here."
As if hit by a magic wand, Lin Qingquan escaped into an illusion of no one.
The sky full of fireworks, Kasuga Festival, and Edo all disappeared, and so did Mumu.
……
"Jellyfish, jellyfish! There are jellyfish here."
It was none other than Lin Qingquan who spoke.
To be precise, it was Lin Qingquan who was twelve or thirteen years old and just a teenager.
The motorboat floats in the sky, the blue and purple neon lights, the icy rain smells of corruption from the inside out.
At this time, Lin Qingquan was dressed in shabby clothes and malnourished, standing on tiptoe outside the glass-curtained building.
The tall building is magnificent, and a group of suits and leather shoes are walking around inside, all of them look like social elites.These social elites who control the fate of countless people keep jellyfish as pets in office buildings.
Jellyfish of various colors are gorgeous and treacherous.
"29! Don't look! You'll be left behind later!" Lin Qingquan was hit hard on the forehead.
The person who knocked him was a middle-aged woman who was also the director of the orphanage where Lin Qingquan worked.
The children in the orphanage have no names, only numbers arranged in order of admission.
He entered the orphanage at the age of 11, and it has been a year or two now, and Lin Qingquan has never seen the director smile.She's always been fierce.
Led by the headmistress, two rows of children held hands and shuttled from one block to another.
"If it weren't for the people who built this building, you wouldn't need to move." The headmistress spat on the ground, "The Hei family of the dog day, if you can do it now, you will be punished sooner or later!"
At this time, Lin Qingquan was not very old, and he didn't know much about the Hei family. He only heard about it from radio, TV, and people who were envious and fearful.
It was a chaebol group. Many buildings and blocks were named after the Hei family. The beautiful and stiff artificial intelligence would recite the slogan of the Hei family when it was turned on. Even the tobacco and sunglasses were printed with the group's logo.As long as a person is born, he has to be more or less related to the Hei family.
The move of the welfare home was precisely because the Hei family forcibly seized the site of the welfare home, saying that it was going to be developed into a motorboat factory.
"Where's 129?!" The female dean blamed, "Didn't I ask you to hold 129's hand?!"
In order to prevent children from getting lost, children are required to hold hands in pairs.
The child holding hands with No. 29 Lin Qingquan, numbered 129, is five years younger than Lin Qingquan.Because he went to see the jellyfish, he left 129 behind him.
After searching for a long time, I finally found 129.The headmistress grabbed Lin Qingquan's ear and made him face a naturally curly little boy, thin and small, "29, remember, you have to hold 129's hand all the time, and don't let go easily."
"I know, Dean." Lin Qingquan said perfunctorily.
These words came in from his left ear and came out from his right ear, but they were completely heard by the natural volume on the opposite side.
The new location of the orphanage is at the intersection of poor street and red light district.
Lin Qingquan already has the appearance of an adult.At night, sexy and coquettish girls are beckoning to him like ghosts, and at the end of the unfathomable alley there are people who inhale unknown powder, looking like crazy.He turned a blind eye and was already numb.
It's been like this for a year.The children in the orphanage were taken away one after another.
Lin Qingquan's parents were shot to death in the street when he was ten years old.He entered the orphanage at the age of 11, which is already considered old, and the older he gets, the less likely he is to be adopted; over time, he became the oldest child here.
Therefore, the female dean always calls him to help, similar to the role of the monitor.
"Especially 129, please be careful." The headmistress instructed, "That child is beautiful, but he is a bit weird. Last time a couple wanted to adopt him, and the formalities were completed after paying the money. I gave him a gift on the way home. He let him hold a puppy. It may be that the hugging posture was wrong. The puppy died after arriving home. The couple were thinking about how to comfort him, but he didn't say a word, and threw the puppy's body on the road. He went to the garbage truck next to him. They thought he was infiltrating, so they sent him back the same day, and they didn’t even give up the adoption money.”
Speaking of this, the headmistress gave him a squinting look, "Do you know, 129's parents?"
Lin Qingquan shook his head.
"His father killed seven or eight prostitutes and ran away for several years. His mother is also a prostitute. The two have been married for three or four years. One day his father boiled his mother's heart and liver, and he ate it and fed it I fed it to him for several months, and when I found out that there was only one head left in the refrigerator..." The female director said with emotion, "129, if it is normal, it will definitely sell for a good price. He is our He is used for the front of the hospital and for charity promotional photos, so he should be fed well."
After hearing 129's horror story, Lin Qingquan didn't intend to give him special treatment.
As for all the children who entered the orphanage, no one had a childhood like a ghost story.
One day the headmistress had to go out to do some errands, and she didn't come back until a week later.She asked Lin Qingquan to supervise the children's eating and sleeping.
Soon Lin Qingquan discovered that 129 was indeed a bit strange.
The other children gathered in the cafeteria at twelve o'clock and waited for the meal to be served. Only 129 hid far away and watched coldly.
"People look most like pigs when they eat. They look even more like pigs when they eat together," said 129, who was eight years old at the time.
Lin Qingquan poured his rice face to face, "If you don't want to eat, get out and come in when you're hungry. I don't need to take any bullshit promotional photos, I don't owe you anything."
He dragged 129 out of the door and closed the door.
After an afternoon and an evening, I was very busy.When checking the bedroom at night, Lin Qingquan found that someone was missing.
"What about 129, have you gone for supper?"
"I haven't seen him all day."
"Not back yet?!"
Lin Qingquan ran out of the orphanage.
At this moment, the night sky began to rain, the earth seemed to be covered with a layer of glass film, and smoke and psychedelic light were everywhere.
He ran in the rain for a long time, and his whole body was soaked for a long time. The colored lights and the ticking sound of machinery flooded into his mind, making it a mess, and his heartbeat was also chaotic.
Eventually he saw 129 in the dark of the red light district.
129 was surrounded by five or six people.Those few people dyed their hair in various colors, each with a different color.
There are a lot of addicts in this world, day and night they suck up and down, driving away waves and coming again, like endless cockroaches.
These addicts above, with blurred vision and obsessed with desire, regard 129 as a little girl.
The scalp almost exploded.Lin Qingquan picked up a rusty stick, and when he saw a colored hair, he knocked on it.
After knocking, he grabbed 129's hand and ran away.
The rain is heavier, like watering.There is no one on the street late at night, only the continuous neon lights and the sound of machinery.
To flee, to flee as if to be killed.I fled so far that I don't even know the way back to the orphanage.
After entering a dead end, Lin Qingquan stopped and bent over to look at 129.
129's shoes were gone, his clothes were torn, his face was bloody, and his mouth was swollen.
Lin Qingquan stared at him for a while, then nervously pulled off his clothes.
He checked his body, luckily there were no traces of vital parts.
Lin Qingquan hugged him into his arms, his shoulders kept shaking, "I'm sorry...I'm really sorry."
129 said nothing, but did not resist.
After a long time, Lin Qingquan dressed him again and asked him to rinse his mouth with rainwater.
"have you eaten?"
"No."
"Since noon until now, you haven't eaten anything?"
"Ah."
"I'll take you to dinner."
129 was stunned for a second, "Where did you get the money?"
"It was stolen from the dean's office." Lin Qingquan said, "Don't worry about it, I will invite you if I say please."
They entered the convenience store and asked the clerk to make a cup of warm milk tea and make noodles.Lin Qingquan quietly watched him finish eating.
"The milk tea is so sweet." 129 sucked on the coconut inside.
"Don't you like sweets?"
"I like it. But I've never tasted such a sweet one. It's really delicious."
Lin Qingquan touched his wet natural roll, "If I have money in the future, I will bring you to make a cup every day."
After this incident, 129 became more obedient and became closer to Lin Qingquan, which was different from the indifferent face towards others.
The headmistress left for a week and didn't come back; after another week, she still didn't come, and the children panicked.
Until a month passed, it was said that the dean had come, but he was a slightly fat uncle.
"Your dean is dead, and I will be your new dean from now on."
"How did she die?" Lin Qingquan asked.
"He was hit by a car." The uncle said, "He died like a dog."
Unlike the female dean, the new dean will give the child away as long as someone is willing to adopt, regardless of the family conditions of the adopter, whether they have a criminal record, or whether they have extreme violent tendencies.
The children were adopted one by one, and the number of children in the orphanage decreased by half.
129, who is the face of charity, is outstandingly beautiful, and his photos can attract a lot of investment.The new dean has kept him.
In this way, 129 and the old child Lin Qingquan were left behind.
However, the new dean's eyes on 129 became more and more explicit.
On this day, in the name of celebrating his birthday, the new dean invited 129 to his office, saying that he had prepared a birthday cake.
"I don't want to go." 129 sat on the small bench, and Lin Qingquan squatted to tie his shoelaces.He was wearing a new pair of sneakers, famous brand, bought by the dean.
"There's cream cake to eat, why don't you go?"
129's toes shrank in the shoes, "If you don't want to go, you just don't want to go."
At night, 129 still went.
In the middle of the night, Lin Qingquan was awakened by the movement next door.A water glass fell to the ground, and then the dean roared.
He rushed in without his shoes on.
a mess.The dean's top clothes are still there, but his bottom is bare. 129 didn't wear anything, the only thing he was wearing was the pair of sneakers.
He knelt down on his knees, and the dean grabbed his hair.
Reminds me of that rainy night.
The dean caught a glimpse of Lin Qingquan who was stunned at the door, and said angrily, "What are you doing here?! Get lost!"
Lin Qingquan walked in, first threw the birthday cake on his face, then picked up the plastic knife for cutting the cake, and stuck it into his eyes.
Blood and cream were mixed together, and his face was red and white, like expired paint.While he was covering his eyes, Lin Qingquan picked up the cushion on the swivel chair and rushed over to cover his mouth and nose.
The dean was straddled and pressed, struggling to break free from suffocation. 129 also came to help.
His leg kicked so hard that it gradually lost its vitality, and finally stopped moving after a few twitches.
During this long 3 minutes, the two children were sweating profusely.They held it for another ten minutes before daring to let go, for fear that the dean would come back to life again.
On the night when 129 turned 12, they partnered to kill someone.
After confirming that the dean was completely dead, "Let's run..." 129 cried and said, "Brother, take me away."
This is the first time he called Lin Qingquan, his elder brother.
Looking at 129 who was crying like pear blossoms and rain, Lin Qingquan shook his hands and calmly dealt with the knife, blood and muddy cake.
"Put on your clothes." Lin Qingquan said, "I haven't asked you yet, what's your name?"
"What's your brother's name?"
"Lin Qingquan."
129 thought for a while, "Then I will have the same surname as my brother from now on, my name is Lin Che."
In the years of knowing each other, on the night they escaped from the orphanage, they asked each other's names, and finally got rid of the machine-like number.
Tonight is another rainy night.They pried off the manhole cover and dumped the body into the sewer...
In this world of gunfights and toxins, people are being killed every day, and when they are gone, they are gone, and there is no one to look for.
Lin Qingquan took all the money from the orphanage, went to another block, and rented a basement with the money.
One year away from becoming an adult, Lin Qingquan had to lie about his age in order to be able to work illegally.
He has to work three jobs, all of which are unstable, mostly night shifts in convenience stores, dishwashers, and reselling some contraband.
The wages of the black workers are meager, and the two live in poverty.Even so, Lin Qingquan bought the best study equipment for Lin Che. Lin Che was smart and always got A's in every exam.
The two huddled together in the damp basement, cooked and ate together, slept in the same bed, covered with a quilt, and changed clothes.
Lin Che was beautiful but frail and sick. Lin Qingquan always carried him to a nearby clinic to see a doctor.Sometimes he got dizzy from fever, and would say stupid words on Lin Qingquan's back: "Just keep carrying me on your back, brother. Let's do this forever."
Lived like this for a year.
That night, Lin Qingquan received private work to deliver a package to an address.The employment fee offered by the other party is very high, which is equivalent to the living expenses of the two for a year.
He probably knew that there would be no legal items in the package, but Lin Qingquan still wanted to go.
Everyone has been killed, so what are you afraid of?
The package is very heavy and big, and it keeps falling off when it is placed on the back seat of the motorcycle.
So Lin Qingquan tied the package around his waist, wrapped the rope several times, twisted the handle wildly, and rode the motorcycle to that address.
Encountered barriers on the road.The traffic policeman took the instrument to sweep it, and it started beeping.
"Human tissue was found. Human tissue was found. Human tissue was found..." the mechanical female voice repeated, and a cooled and complete corpse was scanned on the dashboard.
Cold sweat fell.Lin Qingquan was startled to realize that what was tied on his back was a dead person.
The policemen all around surrounded him.
Without doing anything else, Lin Qingquan twisted the handle to the limit, breaking out of the tight encirclement.
The motorcycle was forced out of the posture of a train by him.
The address is a villa.After reading the code, the door was opened by the butler with shiny hair.
"No one told me... the bag contains corpses." Lin Qingquan was a little angry after the disaster.
"Otherwise the commission will not be high." The butler said, "Please open the package, I need to inspect the goods."
Inside the package was a female corpse.
The woman is young and beautiful, with snow-blue skin and long wavy hair. Even if she is dead, she can be seen as a sexy and beautiful beauty.
The butler nodded, "I asked the master to come out and take a look."
After a while, a middle-aged rich man smoking a cigar and wearing a silk nightgown came down from upstairs.
He exhaled the smoke in his mouth, glanced at it, "Not bad, very fresh."
These rich people are really crazy.
The rich man looked at Lin Qingquan, exhaled smoke rings and said, "There are some obstacles on the road, did you escape?"
"Ah."
"You didn't have a gun, how did you break through those policemen?"
"I broke out with a motorcycle."
"It's good skill, it would be even better if you can use a gun. How old is this year?"
"eighteen."
"You are so young, how do you do this?"
"No money."
"Are the parents at home all right?"
"He died long ago. I'm an orphan." Lin Qingquan paused, "It's just that there is a younger brother from the orphanage who lives with him."
"The resume is pretty clean." The rich man took a sharp puff of his cigarette, "I'll give you double the money. Don't worry about your family, come and work with me. It's definitely more profitable than you doing odd jobs."
"What job?"
The other party pinched out the cigarette in his hand, "Surveillance on a... a young man who is about your age. You are the same age, so you should have a common language."
It turns out that the rich man is the deadly enemy of the Hei family, and has been looking for someone to get close to the only son and only heir of the Hei family.
The heir's name is Hei Mulian, and he is as old as Lin Qingquan, both.
"You will receive two years of closed training. During this period, you will focus on medicine and foreign languages. By the way, this world doesn't know how to use guns. You should also learn to shoot. One day you will be able to use it. After two years, You have to approach Hei Mulian as a medical student at the same school, and from then on, as his doctor and friend, get all his movements."
There is a stable income of [-] yuan per month, including food, housing and schooling.Lin Qingquan agreed without hesitation.
In the early morning of the next day, Lin Qingquan was sent home by the rich man's driver.
Lin Che didn't sleep all night, her eyes were bloodshot, "Brother, where did you go last night?! I waited for you all night!"
"I'm leaving for two years." Lin Qingquan looked at him apologetically, "Don't worry, you will receive a large sum of money every month."
Lin Che's eyes were wide open, "Two years? Two years?! You let me live alone?"
"You don't need to live in the basement anymore, and someone will take care of you."
"That's not what I said!" Lin Che exclaimed in surprise, "No matter what my brother does, I will follow you. We cannot be separated!"
have no choice.Lin Qingquan had no choice but to take Lin Che back to the rich man's house.
When the rich man saw Lin Che, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Pretty boy. He could work for me too, stay."
Lin Qingquan worried for a moment, "My younger brother is beautiful, but he can't do... a bad job."
The rich man smiled, "You don't have to worry about that. I treat my employees very well, and he won't be wronged."
In this way, Lin Qingquan and Lin Che received secret training at the same time, but in two different directions.
During these two years, he trained [-] hours a day, practiced guns for four hours, studied medicine and pharmacy for eight hours, and spent the remaining four hours learning foreign languages and eating.
Lin Qingquan likes shooting the most, and he will practice shooting more.
Holding the gun for a long time, his fingers and the jaws of the tiger have developed shallow calluses.
Finally, two years later, he packed himself up and was about to send him to Hei Mulian's side.
"Hei Mulian, this kid... I have tried to find a few people to approach him before, but they all failed. The common problem of the only son of the chaebol is aloofness, stubbornness, not easy to trust others, only trust yourself."
Lin Qingquan didn't listen much, "Where's my brother?"
"He's a quick learner. He completed his training half a year ago and is already working."
"It's not a bad job, is it?"
"Of course not, his task is simpler and easier to do than yours. You kid, think about yourself more, even those with the surname black are not easy to deal with."
"Show me Hei Mulian's photos and information."
"Don't worry, you just left the training ground, and you look like a mercenary. First adapt to the campus, and behave like a normal college student. Don't show any purpose."
Two years of militarized training, zero social interaction.Lin Qingquan is like a hermit who has just descended from the mountain, with a paralyzed face. On the road, he always listens to music with headphones on his head.
"You can't be like this kid, you're bored like everyone owes you money." The rich man wanted to train him to become Hei Mulian's friend, "You have to be active! Let alone Hei Mulian, no one wants to make friends with you."
In order to get active, Lin Qingquan joined the school's shooting club at the suggestion of the rich man.
In this world, almost everyone can use a gun, the average level is high, and the selection competition for membership is very tight.
Therefore, there will be a group of people watching the shooting club's annual selection competition.
With a full score, Lin Qingquan surprised everyone, breaking the historical record since the school was founded.
A tall and thin boy approached, "Student, may I know you?"
Lin Qingquan took off his goggles, put down his gun, and glanced at the person in front of him.
He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and gold-rimmed glasses. Like most students in this prestigious school, he wears a haute couture uniform and expensive black leather boots.
With a paralyzed face, Lin Qingquan turned and left without saying a word.
Back in the dormitory, I put on my earphones to listen to music, and the holographic video of the rich man called me.
"It was Hei Mulian who talked to you just now!" He was extremely excited.
Lin Qingquan was stunned for two seconds, "But I ignored him."
"It's okay, it's okay, it's fine, just ignore it! With that kid's character, he will definitely come to you again." The rich man patted his thigh excitedly, "He has never taken the initiative to meet anyone, so he likes you." Yeah! I got the direction wrong, thinking he likes angels in white clothes with hearts..."
Lin Qingquan interrupted him, "Where is my brother, when can I see him?"
"Hurry up, when he finishes what he is doing, let you brothers reunite!" The rich man was so excited that he brought the topic back to the Hei family, "Hei Yun, Hei Yun, I have found your precious son's weakness!"
Sure enough, Lin Qingquan saw Hei Mulian again soon after.
It was a hot summer day, and Lin Qingquan participated in a sports meeting on behalf of the school.
When the last shot was fired, the audience boiled, and shouts splashed everywhere like boiling water.
Regardless of the moving target and the stationary target, he got unprecedented high scores.
It was the sponsors of the sports meeting who presented him with the award.
As soon as the presenter came out, Lin Qingquan was stunned.
"Student, can I present an award to you?" Hei Mulian looked very polite.
He asked strangely.Lin Qingquan bent down slightly and asked him to hang up the medal.
"Let's shake hands." Hei Mulian offered her hand again.
At the moment of shaking hands, Lin Qingquan's hand was suddenly grabbed, turned over, and the other party stroked the calluses on his fingertips.
This man is sick.Lin Qingquan thought to himself.
"Let's have dinner together tonight." Hei Mulian said with a smile, "Investors have to have a meal with the champion, to be happy, the old rules."
"I'm afraid not." Lin Qingquan said, "I made an appointment to have dinner with my brother tonight. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"It's even better. Let your brother come to eat too. I'll treat you. We all know each other." Hei Mulian was even happier.
The place where Hei Mulian invites her to eat is the most expensive sea view restaurant in the area.He wrapped the top layer.
"Brother! Why did you treat me to dinner at such an expensive place?"
I haven't seen you for more than two years, and when I saw Lin Che again, Lin Qingquan almost didn't recognize him.
He is taller, has lost the baby fat, and is more beautiful to put it bluntly. The only thing that remains the same is his fluffy natural curls.
From the first time she saw Hei Mulian, Lin Che felt an intuitive hostility, "Who are you?"
"My name is Hei Mulian." Hei Mulian stood up quickly. He couldn't afford to treat Lin Qingquan's family poorly, and greeted Lin Qingquan's family warmly. "Your name is Lin Che, right? Nice to meet you."
Lin Che glanced at him, "I want to sit side by side with my brother, can you change seats with me?"
Hei Mulian hesitated, her attitude obviously cooled down, "Yes."
The meal was lukewarm.
After it was over, Lin Che dragged Lin Qingquan to take a step ahead, and said, "Brother, we agreed that only the two of us will eat together, why do outsiders want to mix in?"
"He is the object of my mission."
Lin Che was in a better mood, "Okay, but his surname is Hei after all, you have to be more careful with him and don't underestimate him."
"I know."
"Let me take a good look at my brother." Lin Che stopped and hugged him like a child, "Brother, I miss you so much..."
Lin Qingquan patted his curly head, "What did you do?"
"The boss asked me to keep it a secret." Lin Che smiled.
"You're not wronged, are you?"
"Sometimes..." Lin Che said, "But sometimes, I really like this job."
Hei Mulian was born in a privileged class, with power and money, and she deserved to enjoy the services all over the world as soon as she was born.
So he has confidence in everything about himself.
After confirming that he had feelings for Lin Qingquan, he immediately launched a fierce pursuit, making no secret of his feelings.
Everyone in the school knew that Young Master Hei was chasing the sharpshooter of the shooting club.
"The mission went much smoother than expected. If you don't know, I thought you were Hei Mulian's mission target." One day, after Lin Qingquan reported Hei Mulian's itinerary, the rich man sighed happily.
"Is this person really the legendary Hei Mulian?"
"Why do you ask that?"
"He's not aloof at all, and he looks a bit naive. He's not pretending to be Hei Mulian to confuse us, is he?"
The rich man laughed, "Of course he is Hei Mulian himself, but I didn't expect him to have this side."
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Lin Qingquan asked again: "What kind of job does my brother do?"
"He is similar to a killer."
"Killer?!" Lin Qingquan was shocked.Killing people is much more dangerous than his kind of intelligence job.
"Oh, I just said I won't tell you, you have to ask..."
"You just said, similar to a killer, what do you mean?"
"He's pretty...that's the trick first, and then kill the target." The rich man said, "I didn't force him, he likes to do it himself. I won't force employees to do things they don't want to do."
Lin Qingquan pressed for Lin Che's address, rushed over overnight, pried open the door, and waited for him inside.
Lin Che didn't go home until midnight.
He reeked of alcohol and staggered when he walked.
But the moment he turned on the light, out of killer instinct, he calmly took out his gun and pointed it at Lin Qingquan who was on the sofa.
"Brother?" Seeing who was coming, he quickly retracted his gun.
Black long straight wig reaching waist, short skirt and long boots, lipstick sticking all over the chin, only a very intense kiss can make the lipstick messy like that.
Lin Che in women's clothing made Lin Qingquan want to kill him, and he was only 15 years old.Lin Qingquan recalled those two rainy nights, "Are you really that cheap in your bones?!"
"What I like is killing people." Lin Che explained, "I never let those bugs touch me. Brother, don't get me wrong..."
Lin Qingquan realized the seriousness of the problem, "Don't do it, don't do it no matter what, I will raise it with the boss tomorrow."
The rich man can let him go, but the condition is a liquidated damages of 2000 million.
He made it clear that he didn't want to let Lin Che go.
Lin Qingquan smoked all night and found Hei Mulian the next day.
"I need money, can you lend me?"
"no problem."
Lin Qingquan frowned, "Don't you ask how much it is?"
"how much is it?"
"2000."
"Is it your brother's ransom fee?"
After the soot was shaken off, Lin Qingquan opened his eyes wide and met Hei Mulian's bright pupils, "When did you know?!"
"I checked all your information on the first day I saw you. I know...you were sent from there."
Lin Qingquan smoked silently, without saying a word.
"Qingquan, I really like you. Can you try dating me, you will be satisfied..."
"Hei Mulian, are you stupid?!" Lin Qingquan exploded, "Or are you fucking crazy?!"
Hei Mulian held his face and kissed it.But Lin Qingquan froze for a moment, then closed his eyes.
"Stay with me, Qingquan. I'll take you away, stay away from here, and I'll take care of your brother, over there...you don't have to worry, I can take care of it. You don't have to suffer anymore."
Lin Qingquan, who has been worrying about others, felt the love of others for the first time in his life.He looked at Hei Mulian with different eyes, "OK."
The young master of the chaebol finally caught up with the sharpshooter.
After that day, the rich man literally disappeared from his life.This person could not be found by any means, and the world seemed to have evaporated.
Naturally, Lin Che didn't need to be a killer anymore, and moved in to live with the two of them.
Hei Mulian's house is a villa built in the countryside, the environment is very good, but it is not very lively, and there are no people around.
"It's boring, let's get a pet, what do you like?"
"Jellyfish."
"Jellyfish?" Hei Mulian smiled, "Why do you like this?"
"Jellyfish are beautiful, and they don't need to consume any emotions. Even if they die, they won't make you sad like cats and dogs."
"Okay, then listen to you."
According to Lin Qingquan's preference, Hei Mulian ordered a huge glass tank and invited several servants to take care of it.
All kinds of jellyfish float, about seven or eight, red, green, yellow, psychedelic beauty.
"The natural enemies of jellyfish are sea turtles." Lin Qingquan was feeding them.
"I wasn't interested in jellyfish at first, but looking at it now, it's quite beautiful." Hei Mulian's face was behind the glass tank, "Qingquan, which one do you like best?"
"The red core glows green, and there are black spots on the red core." Lin Qingquan pointed to a colorful jellyfish that can emit light, "Look, it looks like a kind of fruit."
"Watermelon." Hei Mulian said.
"Let's call it watermelon from now on."
"Do you want to name something else
