Chapter 107
In autumn, the cool evening wind blows close to the ground, and Nan Zhuo's sight is blurred by his disheveled hair.He stood under the streetlight, surrounded by chaos. Police cars, ambulances, and forensic doctors surrounded the fallen man, shaking their heads to confirm the loss of life.
The mid-autumn moon above the head is clear, round and white, and Nan Zhuo's eyes are like falling silver lights.He saw a knife stuck in Teng Yong'an's chest on the right side, and the blood spread to his feet. Someone pulled him back, but he threw him away violently.
He cried and said, "Uncle Teng."
Crying, crying, struggling, despairing, saluting, he spends the rest of the time helplessly using these established steps to express his grief and despair.The adoption document signed "Teng Yong'an" was sealed in the evidence bag, thus ending the short but profound beauty they had experienced between them.
Teng Cuo stood in the perspective of a bystander, repeatedly floating in the void, looking coldly at himself 16 years ago, many realities were in chaos, and the light was completely annihilated.The pale young man is like a bird that fell to death in the snow in March[1]. After leaving Uncle Teng, what awaits him is nothing but a disaster. He even defines himself as the cause of Teng Yongan's death, which is the root of this nightmare. root source.
Teng Cuo's face was full of sweat and tears, he suddenly opened his eyes, and saw Xiao Guo's Adam's apple first.The man was awake all the time, wrapping his arms gently around him.Teng Cuo stretched out his hand and pressed it against Xiao Guo's chest.
The two lay facing each other, the light curtains let in the moonlight.Taking advantage of this light, Xiao Guo wiped the corners of Teng Cuo's eyes and cheeks with his thumb.
Teng Cuo's shoulders were still heaving, he buried his head in Xiao Guo's neck, and said in a muffled voice, "Brother Xiao."
"I'm here," Xiao Guo said in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhuo, I'm here."
Teng Cuo lived with him, and within half a month, the injury was almost healed.They don't need to adjust in life or anything, but Teng Cuo will have nightmares when he doesn't take sleeping pills, and once he falls asleep, he will return to the most helpless and bloody time, trembling and murmuring, chanting those who have been The person who passed away is sometimes called Brother Xiao.
But every time he opened his eyes Xiao Guo was awake, nothing fancy, just patted people to coax him, called Xiao Zhuo over and over again, and he was able to pull Teng Cuo back.Teng Cuo raised his face, stretched his neck and rubbed the tip of Xiao Guo's nose.
"Brother Xiao," Teng Cuo said hoarsely, "I want to take medicine."
After taking the sleeping pills, he would stop dreaming, but Brother Xiao brushed away the long hair sticking to his cheeks and said, "Don't take it." He covered his forehead with his lips, "Just sleep like this, I will accompany you .”
"I obviously didn't have it a few days ago." Teng Cuo calmed down and said angrily.
However, Xiao Guo stroked his back slowly with his big hands, and said: "It's okay, Xiao Zhuo, don't worry."
Teng Cuo raised his chin, Xiao Guo bowed his head knowingly, and the two kissed lingeringly.When Teng Cuo felt comfortable being kissed, he would close his eyes and stretch his body. Xiao Guo didn't stop, still hugged him, and whispered his name again while he was panting.
Xiao Guo has the right of passage to enter Teng Cuo's mind, not only the dream, but also the future, he wants to occupy the field and the autumn night that Teng Cuo doesn't want to look back.
This person's voice, this person's gaze, this person's touch, as long as it is Xiao Guo, it seems that anything can penetrate Teng Cuo's skin and touch the underlying bones.He witnessed Teng Cuo's desperate struggle in the depths of his soul, and then comforted him little by little. He was the only guide for Teng Cuo to enter this world.
***
Teng Cuo didn't dream again that night, and he still didn't wake up when the sun came in the next morning.Xiao Guo had brought breakfast out from the kitchen, looked at his watch, and went back to the bedroom to wake someone up.
Now this apartment looks very different from when Xiao Guo lived alone, it is no longer a place for bachelors.The previously unused kitchen is now used every day, and the living room is a bit messy. The paper with chemical formulas and sugar on the coffee table are all wrong.A new kennel was built in the corner, and the big brown dog Baisui ran out of it, stepped on the mat that fell on the ground, wagged its tail and followed behind Xiao Guo, looking for Teng Cuo together.
Xiao Guo moved lightly, and opened the curtain a little.The sky is blue and the clouds are thin outside, the weather in early February is over, the flowers are in full bloom, and the real spring has arrived.
Xiao Guo propped up his hands on the bed, and just about to call out, Bai Sui behind him called out twice.He looked back, and saw that the big dog was lying on the side of the bed in a similar posture as him, while the person under the quilt moved, intending to wake up.
But Xiao Guo knew that it was impossible to get this person to wake up on time, and Teng Cuo could sleep until noon when he didn't bark some time ago.But today Teng Cuo is going back to work in the research institute, so he can't let it go on like this.
Xiao Guo pushed Bai Sui away from the bed, leaned over, and lifted the quilt a little.Teng Cuo woke up, hanging his arms on the back of his neck, revealing his white and smooth body, there were marks on his neck and chest, and on his wrists, Xiao Guo lowered his eyes and saw it, his face blushed, and he hugged him tight.
Teng Cuo opened his eyes. When he woke up, his eyes were hazy and his expression was very ignorant.He leaned against Xiao Guo, said good morning in a hoarse voice, and then kissed her on the lips.
He hooked him tightly, and Xiao Guo couldn't stand up because of him, so he lay down and rolled around on the quilt.Teng Cuo was lying on his back, his long hair spread out, all of which were entangled with evil spirits.Xiao Guo failed to retreat in time.His strong arms supported both sides of Teng Cuo's body, and the curtains were half covered. The two were close at hand, looking at each other carefully under the warm light.
Breathing hot and intertwined, Teng Cuo's cold fingertips slid into Xiao Guo's neckline.He moved his knees up, confirming what he felt, and couldn't tell if there was something wrong with it when he laughed.
"Brother Xiao," he said, "are you excited?"
Xiao Guo knew that he was irrefutable, so he whispered, "Get up, Xiao Zhuo."
Morning is a dangerous time, so Xiao Zhuo, who is resigned to his life, doesn't try to tease him hard.But since he got up, he has been clinging to Xiao Guo, and because of his bare feet, he was picked up and sat on his lap.
Teng swayed his legs wrongly, lowered his hand holding the can, and Bai Sui rushed over.He lowered his head to feed the dog, and Xiao Guo fed him with wonton stew.
"I'm so tired at work," Teng Cuo finished feeding, swung his legs and kicked his hundred-year-old hair, hugged Xiao Guo's neck and complained, "I earn so little."
"I haven't gone yet," Xiao Guo was amused, and said, "Do what you like, don't think about money."
This is because neither of them has the desire to become rich, and because Teng Cuo is not short of money.There is a monetary reward mechanism for informants to provide information to the police. In a transnational anti-drug case like Huayuan, a piece of valuable information can reach a price of six or seven figures, and Teng Cuo has provided countless information in the past ten years. number.He didn't do it for money, but this kind of credit can't be praised and sent a pennant. Tan Yanxiao adjusted all the files and applied for a reward to call.
People with money acted frivolously, so Teng Cuo bit Xiao Guo on the cheek and asked, "Brother Xiao, do you want me to support you?"
Xiao Guo looked at him for a while, felt his face was very hot, raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose with his knuckles, but finally nodded and said: "Yeah."
Teng Cuo looked down at him, his long eyelashes trembled, he giggled twice, and said, "Then I'm going to work."
"Don't work hard," Xiao Guo touched his earlobe and said, "I'm easy to take care of."
He was very shy when he said such things, but he was still very serious, which made Teng Cuo think it was cute, so the two of them went out a little later that day, and they didn't have time to go out for a walk.Xiao Guo sent Teng Cuo first, and it was rare that he got stuck in the Municipal Bureau.
The file about Ye Sheng was still spread out on the desk. The man was on a small island in the southern part of the ocean at this time, so the coast guard had to be used to track and arrest him, which was not the responsibility of the criminal investigation team of the Chaofang City Bureau.But Yesheng has eyeliners in Yufang City, most of them are poisoned, and now the team is focusing on this matter.
Just after noon, Xiao Guo brought Xiang Shan and Miao Shuang back from the field, and then began to prepare for unannounced visits. Together with Jue Ting and Xiao Lu who had just tried a cross-provincial case, the whole detachment didn't have dinner until the afternoon.
Don't talk about work while eating, Lu Haoyang took advantage of this time to reply to messages on his mobile phone, and then put it down with a sad face.
"Help," he said, poking rice, "my mother told me to go on a blind date the day after tomorrow."
Miao Shuang was puzzled and asked, "The day after tomorrow?"
Just as Xiao Lu was about to answer, Xiang Shan, who had always been indifferent, suddenly said, "The day after tomorrow is Valentine's Day."
His words were astonishing, because he really didn't look like someone who would remember such days.Miao Shuang looked at him in surprise, and the young man buried his head in his meal, his ears protruding from the edge of the bowl were both red.
Jue Ting and Xiao Guo who were sitting across from him looked at each other, and they both saw something.But people don't say it themselves, of course they are not qualified to point it out.
Speaking of Valentine's Day, the eyes of everyone at the table turned to Xiao Guo, because he is not single in the team right now.Xiao Lu pretended to shake his head, and said, "We agreed to be single together, Deputy Xiao, you still betrayed us. Can you share with us how you plan to live with Brother Teng?"
Xiao Guo really never thought about this question. When he was 17 years old and Teng missed Valentine’s Day, he bought a box of chocolates and a marshmallow.He started calling that person "Xiao Zhuo" from that day until today.
In this way, Valentine's Day is actually very commemorative, and Xiao Guo took it to heart.He had to handle the case all night today, and went out in the afternoon to pick up Teng Cuo from get off work. He was still thinking about what to do the day after tomorrow while riding a motorcycle along the street.
Teng Cuo didn't know how to live an ordinary life, and Xiao Guo had completely lacked feelings in the past ten years. In fact, he was not as good as Teng Cuo in this respect. Same.He thinks he lives a rough life, and his appearance is very different from Teng Cuo.
Teng Cuo studies medicine and works next to a university.The city bureau at the unit has already explained that Teng Cuo disappeared for half a year. He said he was dealing with family affairs. He is very professional. The unit was very happy when he heard that he could go back.
Xiao Guo parked the car on the side of the road, sent a text message to Teng Cuo, and Teng Cuo came out within a few minutes.However, he held a large bouquet of colorful flowers in his arms, and there were two people beside him.
They were all colleagues, and one of them was Cui Yunchang, who had been very considerate to Teng Cuo before, and he also bought the flowers, saying it was to welcome Teng Cuo back to work.The other person was very young, a new colleague who happened to get off an elevator.
The young man met Teng Cuo for the first time today, and he politely called "Sister" in the morning. Teng Cuo looked at him and smiled smirkly without refuting.After that, the two of them didn't speak for a while, and Teng undid the collar button of his shirt by mistake during the lunch break. The man admitted his mistake before he realized it, and chased after him to apologize.
The young man was also very nervous when he arrived at the entrance of the building. He was wearing a light-colored T-shirt and washed jeans. He looked like a student who had just graduated, and his face was red at Teng Cuo.
He bowed slightly and said again: "I'm sorry, Brother Teng."
Teng Cuo looked at him from behind the flower and raised his eyebrows, it was over, because he was really used to it, and he didn't think it mattered.
He has already let his long hair down at the moment, and a few strands fell into the neckline, the soft black is wrapped around the snow white, and the face that satisfies everyone's imagination is next to the bright flowers, making the two people around Couldn't look away.Teng Cuo has a strange personality, they felt it, so it can't be said that they were moved, they just stared.
The two were on each side, but Teng Cuo had already seen Xiao Guo standing beside the motorcycle.His eyes immediately crescented, and he said "goodbye" quickly, without looking back when he left.
Teng Cuo threw the flower away, rushed over and hugged Xiao Guo.This season has actually eased, but the cool breeze at dusk is in the ascendant, Xiao Guo wears a black jacket with a faint smell of smoke on it.
Xiao Guo stopped him and asked, "How are you doing today?"
"I listen to you, get along well with people," Teng Cuo said obediently, "I've always been polite."
Xiao Guo smiled and said, "Okay."
Yunxia was shining brightly in Teng Cuo's eyes. He didn't mind being intimate in public at all, so he got closer and asked, "Is there any reward?"
This person looked over expectantly, Xiao Guo couldn't refuse.He had candy in his pocket, and Teng took one off and put it in his mouth by mistake.
Teng Cuo's lips were moistened, and the tip of his tongue could be seen vaguely.He looked at Xiao Guo seriously and asked, "Is there nothing else?"
From the corner of the eye, those two people were still standing there, Xiao Guo felt the pressure.But deputy team Xiao always showed an unwavering and aggressive aura at such moments. He bowed his head forward and kissed Teng Cuo.
Teng Cuo was very happy. When he stepped into the car, he didn't even think about picking up flowers on the ground.It was still Xiao Guo who brought it, and the two of them were still not far away, so it would not be appropriate to just throw them here.
As the motorcycle turned the corner, Teng Cuo mercilessly raised his hand and threw the flower beside the first trash can he saw.
"Ugly, old and overconfident," Teng Cuo cursed, then hugged Xiao Guo's waist tightly, and said sullenly, "I only like Brother Xiao."
It happened to be a red light, Xiao Guo turned around in front, smiled and touched his face.
***
This matter is not important, Xiao Guo will not think about it repeatedly, but the pressure is indeed there.It happened that all the young people in the team were there at dinner the next day, so Xiao Guo asked about it.
"Clothes that look youthful, even better?" Xiao Lu felt that he would look at Deputy Xiao differently from now on, so he boldly asked first, "Is it for going on a date with Brother Teng?"
He thought he would be knocked, but Xiao Guo nodded despite his embarrassment.
The police officers present were all shocked, and suddenly felt the weight on their shoulders, and made detailed recommendations.Xiao Guo listened very seriously, and finally the young people came to a conclusion, and Xiao Lu said it solemnly: "Look - the power of love."
