What video?

It seems to be related to Qingcheng Xie.

Yu He calmly glanced at the rapidly moving code, it would take some time for the other side to catch up with him, just a short time, and who knows if this video was sent to distract him?

He closed the message window and paid no further attention. There was no distraction.

But then, a second message jumped out in the dark.

"Edward, I know you're a rare psychopath, and while you were breaching our firewalls, we investigated your secret files."

Yu He's hand gave a beat.

Although his illness is confidential, but the consultation data in the private hospital and private doctors have been kept on file, the other side of the hacking technology is very high, according to some clues, in a short period of time to lock his true identity and access to important information, is not impossible.

A third one was sent immediately after the other.

"That Qingcheng Xie is cheating you, using you, and aren't you curious why he's suddenly not a doctor anymore?"

"......"

Article 4.

"Don't sell out for him, watch this video."

Once again the video frame appeared, snake like a scorpion chasing after him.

Yu He will power is not so weak, he still did not click open.

But the snake's teeth did bite into his flesh and blood, and he hesitated for a moment.

If the opponent wants to destroy his attention barrier in a short time, the entry point must be very tricky.

I have to say, the content of the other hacker's pop-up box is indeed the thing he has been most upset about.

--

Qingcheng Xie Why must we go?

The company was so determined to leave that even when he put his face down and spoke so wretchedly to stay, Qingcheng Xie only said, "I was hired by your father.

I'm the one you can't afford to hire.

It is hard for Yu He to forget how he felt at that time.

There were only two people in his life that he was closely connected to, one was Qingcheng Xie and the other was Xue Xie, and on that day, that night, they both turned into phantoms as if they never existed.

He tried so hard to live and live like a normal person, never giving in to his demons, for seven whole years.

At that moment he was actually very broken inside.

But in the end, he did not really resent Qingcheng Xie, Yu He was used to being alone and to understanding all kinds of people, and he later thought that he could understand Qingcheng Xie's choice.

After all, it's just a simple doctor-patient relationship.

It's just a job that gets paid.

They are neither relatives nor friends, Qingcheng Xie has every reason to leave at any time, Qingcheng Xie did not lie to him and swindle him before leaving, and made his reasoning very clear.

He has nothing to resent.

It's true that he couldn't let go of Qingcheng Xie's sudden departure, but...

Later he thought that at least this person had come and brought him a clear credo to give him the courage to live well. At least this person, once, told him that mentally ill people need to rebuild bridges with society, that they should not be isolated, that he is not a heretic in society.

Yu He thought, just for this point, he should also understand him.

Qingcheng Xie is always able to convince people and get their understanding.

Just like the conversation between Qingcheng Xie and Yuzhu Lu, Yu He also vaguely listened to some of them, Qingcheng Xie's eloquence has always been very good, so many years later, still very good at convincing people with reason, impressing people.

Thinking about this, Yu He glanced at Yuzhu Lu's expression, and he clearly saw that Yuzhu Lu's heart was shaken. Although she was too deeply rooted in the mud, this short conversation was not able to compete with the pain she had suffered for more than ten years.

But she did falter.

Qingcheng Xie convinced Yuzhu Lu to learn the truth about his parents' death, but what about him to himself?

Is it all sincere and not hidden again?

Yu He did not order the video, but his eyes wandered a bit and fell on Qingcheng Xie, who was confronting Yuzhu Lu.

And just this moment of drifting, the other party's code command is catching up, in Yu He back to the moment, has broken through the defense threshold!

"Drip-drip-drip-drip..."

Detonation countdown back to normal, and has been faster to start shipping away, the other side of the technician will be five minutes to read the interval per second recompressed to the minimum threshold, the explosion is no longer a five-minute countdown, but became just a minute and ten seconds!

Yu He suddenly returned to his senses, cursed, now really is not the time to think about these things.

He quickly refocused attention, inputting instructions hard to isolate the video interference, fine sweat seeped out from his bare forehead, a pair of almond eyes on the screen, fingers flipping like a shadow, so fast that people simply can not see the action.

On the other hand, Yuzhu Lu was sure that it was him.

This young man, who looks young, is using his cell phone to interfere with the remote control of the organization, that Qingcheng Xie is not the most important, what is important is this young man.

She paced slowly, without moving, her eyes locked on Qingcheng Xie, as if she was circling Qingcheng Xie, but her afterglow was actually focused on Yu He.

Slowly, getting closer, she undid the safety of her pistol/gun, which had eleven rounds of ammunition in it.

Yu He quickly enters a string of commands and presses the confirmation button.

Red light jumps out.

Intercepted!!!

The frantic countdown was strangled again.

Yu He breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head, just to Qingcheng Xie a no problem gesture, eyelids suddenly jumped, the sixth sense of human felt his neck tingle, he jerked his head ---

At the same time, Yuzhu Lu pulled out his pistol from behind his waist and pressed the trigger towards Yu He!

"BANG!!!"

The bullet was discharged, and Yuzhu Lu's arm was sore from the recoil of the hand/gun, staggering back two steps, her shot was too crooked, hitting the data filing cabinet, the entire cabinet surface was dented by the impact, the shrapnel burst through the glass window, spider web-like cracking and then exploded.

" Yu He!"

Qingcheng Xie suddenly went white and pounced on him!

Yuzhu Lu was pinned down by Qingcheng Xie directly on the ground, but the gun in her hand never let go, she struggled, hissing at Qingcheng Xie, who was in short contact with her, Qingcheng Xie's chest was so close to her gun, there was always the danger of a gun going off, but he wouldn't let go.

"Get out of my way!" She screamed at him with her hair in disarray and her eyes wide open. The blackened gun was pointed right at Qingcheng Xie's chest, but for some reason it didn't shoot him, "Or I'll kill you too!"

"You can take my life. Yuzhu Lu , but you can't do it to him, to a child."

Qingcheng Xie deadlocked her, whispering and gnashing her teeth.

The words were spoken very softly, in a low voice in the confusion to Yuzhu Lu, but unfortunately caught in the middle of Yuzhu Lu's frantic shouting, Yu He finally did not hear.

Yuzhu Lu let out an angry roar that did not resemble a human being.

The inner taboo was opened, the first gunshot killed the last trace of hesitation and softness in her heart, and the sanity and temperature belonging to Yuzhu Lu drained away faster and faster.

The mother's tearful eyes in the sky, she slowly lost sight of, she herself would have been a woman abandoned by her children.

She was abandoned ......

All sorts of past events passed in front of my eyes.

The people of the county embraced, the joy of taking office -

"Yuzhu Lu is amazing, the first female graduate student in our county! Graduated from a major university and returned to the township to become a secretary, and the first female secretary! Great! You should do more good things for the county!"

"Secretary Lu, thank you for helping our village repair the road and build the Hope Primary School, which they just refused to do after so many years of delay."

"Secretary Lu, thank you, if not for you, my mother must have forced me to marry, I, I want to study ...... thank you for helping me, so I have books to read ...... thank you, really thank ......"

"Secretary Lu, why do not you accept our thank you gifts ...... so many secretaries immediately after taking office, who are not like you, really put our townspeople's lives in the eye, for us to do so many things ...... "

"Thank you."

Thanks ......

Suddenly, like a bolt from the blue, the clouds fell into the abyss.

" Yuzhu Lu, someone has reported you! Someone has reported you for corruption and bribery, please come with us to the police station."

"Jade Pearl ......"

"Mom ...... Ma ...... Mom ...... Ma ...... "

At the end of the great abyss, it was as if there had been a toothless child, shouting indistinctly, the child stretched out his hand and looked at her with tears in his eyes.

Constantly shouting at her: "Ma ...... Ma ......"

When she returned a few years later, the girl with her hand outstretched stood timidly behind another young woman, afraid to approach her.

"You, who are you ......?"

Who are you?

Yuzhu Lu thought, who is she?

Dirty hotel dishwashing room, stained tablecloths and dishes in the center -

"Yuzhu Lu, be quicker, aren't you from the countryside? This little work is so slow."

"She's a graduate student."

"Huh? Graduate students to do the dishes?"

"Read as if it is still a very fashionable major, computer information security ...... really strange, then she is why?"

" Yuzhu Lu , the HR department rechecked your file information, you have been in jail before! You can't hide something like that when you apply for a job, so go away, your salary for this month will be settled for you, and you don't have to come back to work tomorrow."

In the fishy massage room, between the intimate faces of men -

"The little beauty is quite embarrassed."

"What's the pose? Bitch! You're just a salesman? Pay you and still so much crap! I'm giving you face! How dare you bite me--!!!"

"Slap" a slap!

One slap, another slap.

Audible, silent, visible and invisible, slapping her cheeks from the darkness, from all sides.

She knelt on the ground and howled, fingers gripping the ground with deadly grip, hands full of blood, as if trying to dig out a little light and truth from it, and then hold it to those people to see.

She was wrong.

She did wrong, she was receiving money ...... but that was just a pig's money, the unwritten rules of the countryside, not even she personally received, she was unaware ......

Why should we be reduced to a broken home, alone and lonely, with no place to stay!

Why ......

A hundred mouths can't defend themselves, and the net of heaven is dull.

She looked forward to someone she could trust, someone who could give her hope, but she waited for a long time, until her heart was dead, waiting for a disappointment after a disappointment.

"My last name is Duan. Your name is Yuzhu Lu, right? It's a graduate student."

Suddenly there was a starburst.

It was a male guest's lighter that led to the light.

The male guests just come to relax, figure a fresh, randomly follow the fox friends to have fun, and did not want to vent the desire, he has no interest in such cheap places for women. He looked at her feel interesting, in that a little bit of light, slowly exhale a bit of smoke and mist to.

"So much reading." He tossed the lighter on the coffee table and looked at her, "Why did you come to do this."

"......"

Perhaps the man's gaze was too peaceful and peaceful, not mixed with any contempt in it, even focused, serious, with a genuine interest in getting to know her.

Yuzhu Lu The precarious heart of the city, suddenly at that moment was hit in a heavy impact.

She endured a few seconds, or a dozen seconds, but she finally did not hold back, she knelt down at once, in front of that that the guests cover their faces, lost their voices crying ......

The cries of yesterday, the despair of yesterday, seemed to be right in front of his eyes, and Yuzhu Lu shouted angrily at Qingcheng Xie:

"Don't you dare try to stop me from protecting him!!!"

The potential of human is very scary, and with a surge of strength from somewhere, she violently lifted her pinned hand and pointed it at Yu He next to her.

Yu He did not run away, on the contrary, Yu He realized the danger of Qingcheng Xie, and came up to help his companion. In the past, Yuzhu Lu would have appreciated such a young man.

But -

She did her best to raise her wrist, twist it, turn it to ...... do her best to point it at Yu He , clutch the gun and pull, the trigger -!

"BANG!!!"

Ear-piercing!

She was pounced on the ground by Qingcheng Xie, but her hands wouldn't let go and swept all over Yu He's body like a madman...

"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!"

Qingcheng Xie was not at all concerned about his own danger, and still refused to let go under such close gunfire, but Yuzhu Lu burst out as if the human being was struggling to die, and he could not immediately take her gun in such a short time and in such a confused situation.

Yuzhu Lu didn't waste a single bullet on Qingcheng Xie, only a barrage of shots at Yu He who prevented her from detonating the archive.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

There was a muffled sound in the cold.

Qingcheng Xie's eyes widened and he turned around suddenly, his pupils shrinking--

" Yu He!!!"

The youth was still wounded, because he refused to leave, because he did not leave Qingcheng Xie to escape until this moment, and he was hit.

Yu He covered his shoulder, leaning heavily against the wall sideways, blood gushing out from his injury when it was initially not obvious, because he was wearing a black suit, red and black intertwined, and the hot blood in the dim light was not distinct.

But ......

He raised his hand to cover the gunshot wound, the cold white five fingers once covered in the wound, it was soaked with large streams of blood, red seepage in the pale fingers, and suddenly shocked.

Qingcheng Xie's vision seems to be dyed red.

Yuzhu Lu saw herself hit, panting heavily, she maintained the position of being Qingcheng Xie pressed to the ground, looking at Yu He gushing blood, suddenly threw back her head and laughed, the laughter was horrible, piercing the eardrums, laughing, tears flowed down her cheeks, flowing into the messy hair.

"hahahahaha ...... hahahahahaha ............"

The hand loosened and the gun fell to the ground.

Qingcheng Xie got up and immediately ran to Yu He, whose injured hand tried to pick up the phone again, trying to finish the unwritten instructions, but he tried twice, his hand shook so much that the phone snapped to the ground and the screen was full of blood.

" Yu He , you ......"

"...... I'm fine. We have to go now, Qingcheng Xie."

Yu He's eyes were cold, staring at Yuzhu Lu's face, his face was pale and beaded with sweat, but his words were directed at Qingcheng Xie.

"You can't get anything out of her. This one is in too deep."

"...... I know you'll be sorry to miss this one alive, but it's too late if you don't go."

As if to verify what he said, Yu He could no longer enter the program after the other side's technicians quickly broke through the defense wall and once again took control of the detonator into their hands.

Yu He frowned.

He was not so afraid of being hurt, blood was more of a rare thing for him, but the scary thing was that he could no longer grasp anything with his injured hand.

Everything has gotten out of hand.

"Move it."

"276......275......274......"

The countdown was fast and compressed, Qingcheng Xie picked up Yu He, turned his head sideways, and with those blood-red peach blossom eyes, took one last look at the woman who had collapsed in a web of detonating wires.

Yuzhu Lu is like a moth stuck in a spider's web, shaking with laughter from time to time, but with tears falling all over her face.

She lifted her arms and covered her eyes, the upper half of her face in tears, while the lower half was laughing madly.

Qingcheng Xie closed his eyes heavily and turned his head for a moment as if in slow motion -

Like taking your eyes off the cold corpses of your parents from nineteen years ago.

But -

Yuzhu Lu That pistol/gun actually has one last round in it!

She cried, laughed, went mad, heard them leaving, instinctively picked up the gun that she had just let go of and aimed it at them ......

"Get down!"

Qingcheng Xie, who was focused on Yu He's wound, again turned his back completely on Yuzhu Lu, and this time Yu He found it faster.

"BANG!!!" The sound!

Yu He also does not know how he thought, perhaps not thought at all, just a kind of evil dragon instinct to protect their belongings. He violently pressed Qingcheng Xie down! That last shot, actually once again hit the spot where he was already injured -

Just a little bit on the upper side.

This time Yu He's body trembled with pain, softened in Qingcheng Xie's arms, and blood spilled out in Qingcheng Xie's face.

Qingcheng Xie head are numb, he a doctor, he was so unable to face the dripping hot blood at this moment ......

"Why are you ......!!!"

Yu He did not say anything, his dark eyes stared blankly at his wounds, as if he was also wondering why he had to go through with it.

Yes ......

Why? ......

The countdown continues frantically, Qingcheng Xie can no longer delay, he picked up Yu He, with the injured boy, ran out of the building ......

Yu He's blood was hot, dripping down the back of his shoulders, Qingcheng Xie ran along, not caring how the past was, not caring that he had missed the last living person.

He ran out with Yu He in his arms, holding him in a deadly embrace, and he said to Yu He, "It's okay, I'll take you with me."

"...... Never mind ...... I'm not afraid of that, Qingcheng Xie ." Yu He's voice sounded softly beside him, in the footsteps strewn walkway of the archives building, then down the hall.

Yu He is still very calm.

"I'm not afraid of death, I'm not afraid of blood, and I care about pain, you remember."

"......"

"Maybe it's just too fearless to die that I just went that way."

Yu He's lip color is starting to fade. He said.

"It's okay."

But Qingcheng Xie felt cared for, felt pain.

Qingcheng Xie hugged him tightly, Yu He lost too much blood in one moment, and his face was a little white and terrible.

A child that young, only nineteen years old.

Normal children are still asking their parents for pocket money, playing games happily, reading books without distractions, feeling the vigorous life sprouting inside them without any worries, and looking forward to the infinite light.

What about Yu He?

He knew that there was only darkness in front of him, that in front of him there were only three long-dead spiritual Bola Ai patients laughing at him, telling him that there would be no dawn, only a long night, no exit, only a dead end.

But he still gritted his teeth and tried to struggle to crawl towards the future that might hold hope.

Childhood, innocence, laughter, carefree.

None of these terms have anything to do with Yu He.

He is only nineteen years old ...... no matter how powerful, how omnipotent, in the end he is a child.

Qingcheng Xie finally awoke from the chaos of his father's hatred and his mother's hatred at this moment, and he finally knew what his previous sense of impropriety was due to -

He shouldn't have gotten Yu He involved.

On what basis?

Who is Yu He to him?

This child has worked hard enough, they actually only gave him a little bit of the most basic, as a private doctor should have care, how worth this child to take the risk of life to accompany their own jump into the fire pit.

Qingcheng Xie's hand covering Yu He's injury was shaking slightly.

He had never felt much pain for Yu He before, it was more of a responsibility, a care, a compassion, but at this moment, the hot blood of the youth seemed to be going down his skin, his back, into his heart, engraved into the depths of his bone marrow.

Yes ......

They are just a doctor-patient relationship, just the clearest of employment relationships, and if one should also report a slightly unique concern for Yu He because of the human entanglement and the specificity of the mental Bola Ai disorder, then Yu He is different.

Yu He doesn't owe him anything. He viewed him, in fact, should not have any feelings outside of facing the doctor.

However, Yu He came along anyway.

Only because Qingcheng Xie said he wanted to know the truth about his parents' death.

He was eager to find the killer.

But to Yu He, that's not even relevant ......

Qingcheng Xie took Yu He and ran out, he covered Yu He's shoulder wound with a deadly grip and said hoarsely, "I'll take you to the hospital right away, don't talk much more."

Yu He is very quiet.

After a moment of silence, the young man only laughed softly and said, "I'm really fine. But--"

"But, I just want to ask you one thing. Dr. Shea."

"......"

His breath is right next to Qingcheng Xie's ear.

It was hot, yet seemed to carry some cold.

"I'm curious to know, back then, why you suddenly no longer wanted to be a doctor? Was it really as simple as a contract expiring?"

"......"

"Why is it that you don't want me no matter how much I keep you."

"......"

"Seven years Qingcheng Xie , my father are saying that there are human feelings outside of the employment relationship. I ...... I really want to ask you today." The blood is still flowing, Yu He does not look away, his black eyes in the long to horrible night, only unblinkingly looking at Qingcheng Xie .

That look is exactly the same as that of the child who was so helpless that he was suddenly very childish that he tried to retain him with his pocket money that year.

That child, even if more pain-resistant, perception and numb, suffered two gunshot wounds, he will still be pain.

Yu He's voice was very soft, perhaps running in a hurry, sounded a little hoarse: " Qingcheng Xie ...... you to me at that time, there is really no extra human kindness at all?"
