Chapter 6

Ong Seong Wu's house is cleaner than Pei Jinying imagined. The room is mainly gray and white, and the home style is simple.I don't know whose orientation it is, but there are still a few oil paintings hanging on the wall, which look dignified and elegant.There was a nice aroma in the room, and Pei Zhenying couldn't help sighing that such a small space could be decorated so well.Originally, I imagined that it should be a grand occasion of two sloppy men living in a pile of garbage, but I didn't expect Brother Shengyou to be a clean person.

"Mr. Kang Daniel."

"..."

"Mr. Jiang Daniel, it's time for you to get up."

The scene in front of me was just like a young couple who had just finished arguing with each other, with smiles on their faces and mmp in their hearts, Pei Zhenying only thought it was a little funny.It can be said that Jiang Daniel was very shameless, and he still couldn't get up even after turning over several times.Of course, Yong Seong Woo who kept waking him up was also very persistent.

"It's time to wake up, my unique roommate in the whole world, Mr."

"Really... you are enough! Can you be normal!"

Really can't stand it, Pei Zhenying couldn't help frowning.Jiang Daniel stood up abruptly, seeing Pei Jinying's appearance was a bit majestic, he looked at Yong Shengwu blankly.

"Mr. Jiang Daniel, have you forgotten, I told you last night, of course I said it this morning, I also said it on the phone earlier, and even sent you a text message. This is what I said Primary school boy, the one who looks very similar to Li Xiaolang in "Cardcaptor Sakura", isn't he cute?"

"Oh, it's really similar."

Only then did Jiang Daniel figure out the situation. He nodded to Pei Zhenying with some embarrassment, and Pei Zhenying also got up to respond.

"What is "Cardcaptor Sakura"?"

"No, Pei Zhenying, you don't even know this?"

"Well, I don't know..."

"Haven't you heard that catchyou~catchme~?"

"No……"

"Speechless, what kind of age gap is this? We are not many years apart."

While speaking, Jiang Daniel had already washed up, took a laptop and mobile phone, and sat down beside them.In this hut, which is always full of fighting sounds, it has been a long time since there was such a harmonious scene, and there was such a cute and fresh elementary school boy, Jiang Daniel felt a little excited.

"...Then let's start now, let's talk about the subject."

"Well, Daniel, tell me your opinion first."

"So, what can I do to help you?"

Jiang Daniel showed a distressed expression, he was only good at psychological analysis, and he didn't understand social phenomena.Although I really want to say this, but I have just fulfilled the agreement with Ong Seong Wu to maintain peace for 3 days, if I say this, there will definitely be another war.After all, the person who started the war first during this period had to wash clothes for a month.What's more, seeing Pei Zhenying's expectant expression, Jiang Daniel's sense of burden soared.

"Actually, this is just my personal opinion. No, it can also be said to be a definite fact."

"what?"

"This case is clearly related to a certain case in the past."

"What case?"

Ong Seong Wu asked casually, picked up the Coke in front of Kang Daniel and drank it, and Kang Daniel paused for a while.For some reason, he found that Pei Zhenying's expression became a little serious at this moment.

"Have you heard of the incident of a girl falling from a building in middle school B?"

really.Pei Zhenying seemed to be caught by someone's heart, and felt unable to breathe.Calm down, Pei Zhenying, the other party is a professional criminal profiler, absolutely must not leave any flaws.

"No."

"There was a lot of trouble at the time, because the case was closed too sloppily, so I have always been more concerned about this case."

"It seems that I have heard of it before, but I don't remember the details clearly."

"In the past, a female student in a middle school fell to her death from the roof of the building. The police simply judged her death as falling from the building, but it is strange that there are many suspicious points in this case. Not only is there a record of in-depth investigation by the police, but also The scandal of the victim’s classmates engaging in illegal sex trade and being involved in campus violence broke out. After I participated in the serial murder case on the roof of Seocho-gu, I went back and checked the investigation records of the case. The autopsy report on the victim showed that , the girl had marks of being beaten by the group, and she was 5 weeks pregnant at the time of her death. Isn’t it a bit strange?”

"Hey, don't talk about such horrible things, take care of our simple elementary school boy, please, his face is pale."

"Sorry sorry, I didn't think so much."

Pei Zhenying has been holding on, pretending that she doesn't know anything.After so long in the past, hearing what happened back then from a third party still made him feel overwhelmed with pain.He calmed down and spoke.

"If you're telling the truth, those who abuse girls are scumbags."

"It can be said that, but what is even worse is the investigation process at that time. The students who were arrested at the time were only sent home after routine interrogation. And all of them received a non-suspect verdict, and then the investigation ended The end result is a simple accidental fall to death, and this case has been forgotten by everyone."

That's right, it is.Those people said they were right, so they were really acquitted.This result has been tormenting Pei Jinying, making him live with a sense of guilt for Minha.Hearing this, Yong Shengyou couldn't help but said.

"What a bunch of rubbish! But why can the truth of this matter be covered up?"

"It's not easy, because the objects involved are all the children of the upper class, and the power is above everything else. This is not new."

"This country is so rotten and disgusting!"

"The real problem is that there were 7 people on the list of arrested students kept in the police station. If I remember correctly, the victims of the serial murder case on the roof of Seocho District are all people on the list."

"……This means that?"

"There must be a connection between these two cases! I wanted to investigate the two cases together, but Professor Zhu said that if I said it again, he would kill me... It is rumored that the deceased Huang Minhe had an older brother who had a quarrel at the police station For a long time, but then it disappeared..."

"Two seniors."

Pei Zhenying interrupted Jiang Daniel, and the two who were chatting happily looked at him with wide eyes at the same time.

"Although it sounds sad, does this matter have anything to do with our subject?"

Looking at the bewildered expression of the elementary school boy, he seemed to be really confused about this, Jiang Daniel felt a little embarrassed, as expected, he couldn't help much.Bae Jin Young remained as calm as possible, pretending she didn't know anything.

"Sorry, I said so many things that are not related to the topic."

Jiang Daniel scratched his head and opened the laptop.

"Jinying, brother, that sounds interesting. You love learning so much."

Hearing Ong Seong Wu's complaint, Bae Jin Young relaxed a little and smiled.

The project counseling officially started. In order to make them understand, Jiang Daniel tried his best to describe the essence of the whole incident in Seoul dialect.After about 30 minutes, he looked down at his watch and said suddenly.

"Sorry, I have an appointment in the afternoon, so let's stop here today."

Yong Shengwu and Pei Zhenying showed confused expressions at the same time.

"Hey, Mr. Kang Daniel, didn't you say you have a date today?"

"I said so."

"You didn't say that, besides, you didn't even make an appointment with your friends in Seoul? When did you tell me?"

"Of course I have friends, the kind of good friends who can drink together. Didn't I tell you when I was drinking yesterday, brother, you smiled and said you knew."

"Smelly boy, don't you know that you will be broken when you are drunk? Did you have a brain when you talked to me at that time? Did you want to show that you drink better than me? Of course, you should talk about this kind of thing earlier, I will call you Why don’t you say it when you’re texting on the phone? After living with you, there’s never a day in my life where I’m not angry, you bastard!! I can’t live a day of peace with you, every time I sacrifice myself to accommodate you!!!"

Pei Zhenying pressed her temples once again, expressing her helplessness at the sight in front of her again.Seeing Kang Daniel running away from Ong Seong Woo's complaints, he really wanted to ask why the two still live together.

After leaving home for a long time, Jiang Daniel felt that he could still hear Yong Shengwu's scolding, this brother is simply too scary.In a quiet bar on Noryangjin Street, Kang Daniel saw Hwang Min Hyun sitting in a corner in a daze.He wore a very conspicuous pink shirt, which is very harmonious with the spring atmosphere.He really is a man who goes well with pink, Kang Daniel smiled, and walked quickly in front of Hwang Minhyun.

"Brother Minhyun asked me to meet first, I am very honored."

"Sit down, I'm a little bored too."

"I didn't even know there was a place like this around here. The atmosphere is really good."

There were not many people in the bar, and the lighting was sparse and soft. Lyric songs with a sense of age came from the bar counter, slowly flowing in the air.

"I come here a lot and I can hear a lot of Radiohead."

"Minhyun hyung also likes Radiohead?"

"You like it too?"

"It's not me, it's my roommate. I used to be arguing to listen to Radiohead, and he kept telling me to watch "Winter Shower". It wasn't my orientation. By the way, Minhyun hyung was also a student of Y University before, right?" My roommate is also the same age as my brother. Maybe you are classmates, Ong Seong-woo, who majored in politics and diplomacy, do you know him?"

After hearing the question, Kang Daniel noticed that Hwang Min-hyun's little finger moved, which meant that he was panicked, and there was a great possibility that he would avoid the question and change the subject.It seemed that they knew each other, but why did they react like this?Hwang Min Hyun blinked a few times and bit his lip again.

"Ong Seong Woo? I don't seem to know you, Daniel, or have you told your roommate about me?"

"I never said that."

"That's good."

Hwang Min Hyun breathed a sigh of relief, drank a large glass of water, and looked a little panicked. This abnormal reaction made Kang Daniel suspicious.

"I hope you don't tell him about me. Because some bad things happened to me in school, which is known to all the teachers and students in the school, so I received a lot of pressure, so I dropped out of school. Now talk to anyone in the school People are in a state of disconnection, if you know my news, I'm afraid it will spread in the school soon..."

"That's it, bro, don't worry, I've said it all, I'm very tight-lipped."

Hwang Minhyun can't drink, he only ordered a drink.Jiang Daniel was surprised by this, there are people who don't know how to drink, it's really a breath of fresh air.Noticing the bandage on Hwang Min Hyun's arm, Kang Daniel still couldn't help asking curiously.

"Brother Minhyun, what happened to your arm?"

"Ah... this."

Hwang Min Hyun hesitated a little, touched the bandage with his hand, and said with a wry smile.

"I had a fight with the editor-in-chief of the publishing house."

"why?"

How ruthless the hand must be to create such a deep scratch, Jiang Daniel was a little surprised by this answer.Huang Minxuan looked like a gentle man who didn't know how to fight, and he would talk and laugh about his glorious deeds.

"You should know that many people wanted the copyright of "Winter Showers", and I rejected all of them for making movies and TV series. The publisher put forward very strict conditions for the cooperation of my next work, so there is It was the first time I had the experience of going to war with people. At first it was just a quarrel, and after arguing and arguing, I started fighting."

"What conditions did the other party propose?"

"No matter what content I give, refuse to correct and publish directly, and the copyright belongs to them."

"Wow... this is indeed something worth fighting for, so did you win?"

"I have already signed contracts with other publishers, and the contracts have been completed."

"Brother Minhyun is even better than I imagined, and he managed to solve it smoothly. If it were me, I would definitely not give up on Bai Guo, a writer, so valuable."

Hwang Min Hyun smiled lightly, and the song playing in the bar changed inadvertently.Huang Minxuan hadn't listened to this song for a long time, and he didn't speak for a while, just listening to the song quietly, his fingers trembling subtly.

"Is this a Radiohead song? I think I've heard it."

"Well, yes. It seems that your roommate often listens to it too."

"But I don't know the name, I seem to have heard him mention it."

"Karmapolice."

"Ok?"

"Karmapolice, karma police, a song from Radiohead's third album."

"The policeman is me, even though I haven't graduated yet."

Kang Daniel's irrational numbers made Hwang Minhyun laugh, and he took advantage of the current atmosphere and continued.

"If Minhyun brother is a woman, I will definitely pursue him."

"Do not make jokes."

Only then did Jiang Daniel realize that there are really people who can curse people with a smiling face.

"Daniel, what do you think of cause and effect?"

"Cause and effect? ​​I haven't thought about it carefully, but it feels cruel. Everyone makes mistakes and regrets. If everything has to be retribution, isn't it too inhuman?"

"That's it."

"What do you think Minhyun?"

"I feel like it's a blessing from God."

"Brother, you are too cruel."

"You do not understand."

The two chatted for a long time until the bar closed.Kang Daniel thought about the matter of making Hwang Minhyun stronger again, and he thought it was God's will.

After seeing Pei Jinying, Li Zaimin never left the house once.Compared with Pei Zhenying's confidence that he can catch the murderer, Li Zaimin is more afraid of his life being threatened.Knowing that Li Zaimin is still living in seclusion, Pei Zhenying is a little anxious.Things were not as easy as he imagined. At 3 o'clock in the morning, he listened to the ticking of the clock and stared at the ceiling in a daze.Jiang Daniel's words have been lingering in his mind, he is a student who graduated from middle school B, and he is more worthy of suspicion than all of them.At that time, should we tell the truth and help Jiang Daniel solve the case? Is it the right choice to do so now?A feeling of regret hit Pei Zhenying, making him unable to sleep.Suddenly the phone rang, and Pei Zhenying quickly pressed the answer button.

"Li Zaimin?"

[Student, this is Li Zaimin's house. 】

The voice of Li Zaimin's nanny aunt came over the phone.

"……Is there a problem?"

【Are you with Jaemin now?Since you are the only student who has ever been to the house, I will call and ask you. 】

"No, what happened to Li Zaimin?"

【Jaemin left home around 1:[-] a.m.】

"He went out?"

Li Zaimin actually walked out of the house, did he change his mind?

[It seems that I received a call from a friend, saying that I want to meet.Because I was worried about asking who my friend was, I said it was a high school classmate. 】

"High school classmates?"

The nanny said that it was Liu Haiying who made the call, and one of the seven people who is still alive is also the girl who cried and told Pei Zhenying everything.It must be because of fear that they have a sense of solidarity, mutual comfort and mutual dependence.

[I asked where they met, and they said it was near the Jiangnan District Government bus station. 】

Jiangnan District Government Station, where there are office buildings, there should be no suitable place to meet at night.Why is it where?Pei Zhenying suddenly understood something.

【Jaemin hasn't come home now, I can't get in touch with him, or can you help me get in touch with him?How dangerous it is outside at this late hour, in case something happens...]

After hanging up the phone, Pei Zhenying quickly found Li Zaimin's cell phone number, and he had a very bad premonition.Sure enough, the other party didn't answer the phone, and the customer service voice in the handset sounded extremely cruel.Pei Zhenying hurriedly called Liu Haiying again, her hands trembling uncontrollably, the call rang for a long time, Liu Haiying answered.

"Liu Haiying, I'm Pei Zhenying!"

[What's the matter so late? 】

"Did you call Li Zaimin at night? Ask him out to meet?"

[Li Zaimin?I didn't hit it. 】

It's him.Pei Zhenying quickly put on her coat and ran out of the house, leaving only Liu Haiying's anxious voice in the mobile phone left on the bed.

Until now, has Huang Minxuan used this method to call them out? Pei Zhenying seems to understand why everyone came to him spontaneously.No, if it was Hwang Minhyun calling, how did the voice come about?Even if it is a female voice, it is impossible for Li Zaimin, who often meets Liu Haiying, not to recognize her voice, right?Why did you follow him without any doubt?Pei Zhenying's mind was in a mess, he stopped a taxi and drove towards the Jiangnan District Office.His heart was beating hard, and his eyes were fixed on everyone passing by the window.Could it really be Hwang Min Hyun? Will Lee Jae Min die? Have you met Hwang Min Hyun now? Is he scared?

"Lee Jae-min!!!!!!"

On the cold and quiet street at night, Pei Jinying ran, calling Li Jaemin's name.Just when he was about to be out of breath, he suddenly stopped, and his rapid breathing also stopped.In the moonlight, he saw a person lying not far away like urban garbage.

This was the first time Pei Zhenying saw a dead body up close.Li Zaimin's bloody appearance was horrible, but he couldn't move his eyes away.It's all so unrealistic, it's like someone made a wax figure on purpose.Pei Zhenying's feelings became delicate. Li Zaimin, the people whom I cursed, I once eagerly hoped that they would go to hell.But now there is a sense of guilt, if he could arrive earlier, would he be alive.Immediately followed by the sense of nothingness of being helpless against the dead before your eyes.Then there was the pleasure that his curse had finally been fulfilled.In the end, it's a pity, did that person just miss him like this?

These complicated emotions made him stand there motionless, just staring blankly.The fifth target, Li Zaimin, he is still dead.Suddenly, Pei Zhenying spotted the man standing quietly in the distance.Wearing a black hat, he stood like a reed on the moonlit street.Although the brim of the hat covered the other person's eyes, Pei Zhenying could feel that he was clearly looking at her with longing, love, and fear.

Hwang Minhyun appeared like a lie.

When Pei Jinying wanted to call his brother, Huang Minxuan turned around suddenly, ready to run away from the corpse and Pei Jinying.He didn't want Pei Zhenying to see himself turned into a monster, and he didn't want to see Pei Zhenying.He just wants to live as a monster in the eyes of the public, and then disappear suddenly one day. He doesn't want to become like Misty Rain in "Winter Showers".

Bae Jin Young ran after the figure that quickly disappeared from sight, this time she must not miss it, she must convince Hwang Min Hyun, it is not too late.Stand in front of him, look him in the eye and tell him not to go on.

Hwang Min Hyun's speed was very fast, he kept running, and Pei Jin Young kept chasing until a Han River suddenly opened up in front of their eyes.The night on the Han River is very bleak, the vehicles speeding past in the distance are like shooting stars, all the street lights and buildings exude the smell of death, guarding everything around with a heavy sense of presence.

"elder brother!!!"

Pei Zhenying shouted urgently, he tried all his strength and still couldn't catch up, he must not be missed, if he lost here, maybe he would never be seen again.

"Brother, don't run away, don't leave me, Brother Minhyun!!"

The heart was beating violently, as if it was going to jump out of the chest in the next second, Pei Zhenying was panting heavily, her lungs were full of the aroma of cherry blossoms.

"Hwang Minhyun!!!!"

Like a lie, as soon as Bae Jin Young called his name, Hwang Min Hyun stopped.

His black back is deep and silent, under the cover of several cherry blossom trees, it seems to be a cold picture scroll.The petals were falling gorgeously, blurring Pei Zhenying's eyes.That scene was very poignant, and Pei Zhenying couldn't help but have such thoughts in pain.Then Hwang Min Hyun's voice came, as if the whole world was crying.

"Jinying."

He called his name again, Zhenying, accompanied by the feeling of heartbeat.

"You continue to follow my words."

That's right, it was his voice, the voice he had longed to hear.

"You too will die."

lie.Pei Zhenying knew Huang Minxuan's clumsy lie as soon as he heard it, and he still regarded himself as that innocent and foolish young man, thinking that if he dropped this sentence, he could scare himself, and then continued to run away.

Hwang Minhyun, you underestimate me too.

Bae Jin Young approached Hwang Min Hyun faster than the fallen petals, and hugged him tightly from behind.Huang Minxuan froze in place for a moment.Bae Jinyoung greedily sucked the smell that belonged to Hwang Minhyun, his body temperature through his clothes was intoxicatingly warm.

"Hwang Minhyun, I've got you. Just kill me, I'm fine."

Pei Zhenying felt his heartbeat through her fingertips in her body as stiff as a dead man, and then she felt a little relieved.

"If brother really wants to kill me, just do it. You can do whatever you want. Even if you let me jump into the river and drown now, I won't resist, and I will do whatever you want."

Bae Jinyoung's voice was trembling all the time, and so was Hwang Minhyun's heartbeat.The heart doesn't lie.

"Before that, brother, talk to me for a while, 10 minutes, or 5 minutes, I won't ask anything. If you don't want to talk to me, you can just stay like this."

Unknowingly, Pei Zhenying's tears fell. This is the case in the spring when I was 20 years old. I would cry when I saw the scene where the cherry blossoms withered.

"Brother, I know you haven't forgiven me yet, you still hate me, but please don't hide from me, I know I'm selfish, but I just want to see you and hear you call my name, even if it's just a dream ..."

"..."

"I have thought that when I see brother again, I must wake you up, scold you, blame you, condemn you, and then cry loudly, forgetting about brother completely. But I tried hard, I can't do it. I hate myself now, I hate myself for finding you but being unable to do anything."

Xu Shi felt the tears dripping from Pei Zhenying's back, Huang Minxuan moved slightly, he was trembling.It's a pity you can't see his face.It's okay to meet even once, but Pei Zhenying doesn't have the courage.

"Brother, please do one thing, can you be an ordinary Hwang Minhyun again in front of me? It doesn't matter if it's acting, I want to hear my brother call my name, hold my hand, tell me that you are still you, a little Nothing has changed, and I'm really scared now."

Otherwise, just tell me, you are not Hwang Min Hyun, you are a completely different person, why you refuse to say a word.

"elder brother."

"..."

"I miss you so much."

Why is there no answer.But Bae Jin Young felt that it was good if Hwang Min Hyun didn't answer, because he could feel him.

After Pei Zhenying's uneasy and sad long monologue ended, the two were silent for a long time, surrounded only by the sound of cherry blossoms falling with gravity.

This silence seemed to be longer than the past year, Pei Zhenying felt that time seemed to be passing by rapidly, only this moment was still.It's fine if you spend a long time like this.Thinking about it this way, it seemed like it was the first time I hugged Hwang Min Hyun.Even during the first kiss, Hwang Min Hyun never hugged himself.

At the end of that long silence, Hwang Min Hyun took Bae Jin Young's hand and untied his arm.The moment Hwang Min Hyun left her, Bae Jin Young burst into tears as if she had lost the whole world.

"Please, don't go."

Hwang Min Hyun left just like that, taking desolate steps, and disappeared into the distant darkness without looking back.

Pei Zhenying didn't follow, he knew he couldn't catch it no matter what.

However, when he was hugging Hwang Min Hyun, under the clear night sky full of stars, what dripped on his arm was clearly not raindrops.

When Jiang Daniel returned to the institute, Zhu Yingmin was going out to participate in the on-site investigation of the fifth victim, Li Zaimin.Suddenly someone knocked on the back, and he turned around to see that it was his senior sister, Yin Baojing.

"Senior Yin, long time no see."

"Daniel, how about having lunch together?"

The two came to a nearby soup restaurant, and as soon as they were seated, Yin Baojing took out a portfolio from his bag and handed it to Jiang Daniel.

"what is this?"

"The information you asked me to check last time must be kept secret from Professor Zhu."

"Ah, of course! Thank you, senior!"

Ever since Kang Daniel found out that Hwang Minha had an older brother, he had the idea that this older brother would be an important clue in this case.But when Professor Zhu learned of this situation, he immediately stopped all his investigations and even changed the password of the computer.

"If he finds out, you know the consequences will be serious, right?"

"Of course!"

Kang Daniel put the documents in his pocket.

"That man makes trouble at the police station every day, exhausting everyone. There are very few people like him who come to the police station to make trouble."

"My sister died, and the police were perfunctory. I would be angry too. So in the end, I just accepted the settlement money and left?"

"The strange thing is that the settlement money was not collected here. After the trial result of no suspicion came out, Li said that he would never accept it."

"It's probably because we didn't agree. How much did you pay? Is it too little?"

"Give 5 million."

Jiang Daniel choked on the saliva instantly, beat his chest and coughed.

"Are you crazy, don't even want 5 million?"

"That's right, when he met the parents of those children, the parents knelt on the ground and gave him the passbook, but he didn't even look at it. He completely turned a blind eye to the elders who were older than him, what a cruel and heartless person. people."

"He's really a unique person."

"Among the highly educated children recently, many of them are so fake and high-minded, right? They say they are children, but they are actually a little older than you."

Jiang Daniel sighed, 5 million won was unmoved, this is definitely not an ordinary person.

"A highly educated person?"

"Well, a student of economics at University Y."

Y major economics, no way, someone suddenly flashed in Jiang Daniel's mind.

"Sister, how old is that person?"

"Born in 95, I should be 25 now, right? One year older than you. I don't know what to do now."

By chance, by chance.

"Sister, do you know his name?"

"Didn't the information be given to you? You can look at it yourself."

Jiang Daniel opened the file bag with trembling hands, please, it must not be him.The moment he gently pulled out the piece of paper, even though he was fully prepared, he couldn't help but gasp when he saw that face.

"Hwang Minhyun, Hwang Minha's older brother, the only blood relative."
