Chapter 28
Chapter 28
The strong light illuminates the slowly flying fine dust, Xiao Guo and Teng Cuo are almost body-to-body, but the air between them seems to have turned into a twisted and flowing curtain of water, which recrystallizes and solidifies, and finally becomes completely transparent glass.Through such a barrier, Xiao Guo looked at Teng Cuo in shock.
The person he had missed for ten years stood quietly in front of him, his soul-stirring eyes were as clear as burning flames, and the cold light of the laboratory merged with the beauty of poppies.Teng Cuo's expression was very subtle, Xiao Guo couldn't describe it accurately, he smiled, but endless sadness seeped out from it, rippling into a deep whirlpool.
He's charming when he smiles, it's addictive, want to see more, want to make him happier.The dangerous evil spirit quickly crawled over every corner of that face, weaving a sticky net and wrapping around Xiao Guo.
All the fluke mentality of the past was bombarded into pieces by the reality, pushed away by the wind, leaving only foggy memories.
The stray dog brought home by Teng Cuo barked twice at the bottom of the steps, becoming the only source of sound in the silent apartment.When the cry ended, a firm ferocity suddenly appeared on Teng Cuo's face.Xiao Guo's fighting instinct let him know that there is no need to ask questions tonight, he subconsciously touched his waist, but now he has no gun, he rushed forward and grabbed Teng Cuo's arm.
Teng Cuo was almost directly pressed against the skin of the bones in Xiao Guo's palm, and he bent Teng Cuo's arm back, which is a common movement when arresting.He had great strength, but Teng Cuo didn't struggle, he just lowered his shoulders, turned around and hit Xiao Guo's neck with his other hand.
This is a desperate way to escape, if Xiao Guo doesn't let go, Teng Cuo's entire arm will be dislocated.There was already the sound of squeezing at the joints, Xiao Guo took a step back and let go of his hand.
Teng Cuo immediately stood up straight, cold sweat broke out from the pain on his forehead, he tightly pursed his mouth, and threw a fist at Xiao Guo, who was caught by Xiao Guo.Although it was very easy, Xiao Guo knew that Teng Cuo's performance was by no means the skills of ordinary people.
Teng Cuo climbed on the handrail of the stairs and tried to go downstairs, but Xiao Guo raised his leg and blocked it with his knee.Teng Cuo was almost rushing forward with brute force, Xiao Guo didn't give way any more, and kicked Teng Cuo backwards one after another.When Teng Cuo fell on his back, he flipped over a tray on one side of the table with his arm. The glass bottle fell, and the splinters scratched Teng Cuo's forehead and fingers. He fell to the ground, and the arm twisted by Xiao Guo was still there. Trembling, he clutched his abdomen and curled up slightly.
Xiao Guo quickly squatted down, trying to subdue him completely, but Teng Cuo rolled to the side and dodged.He stood up and staggered to overturn the shelves in the laboratory. The sound of things breaking and the frightened dogs barking downstairs sounded extremely absurd.
There was a scalpel lying across the edge of the table, Teng mistakenly copied it, and pointed at Xiao Guo as if threatening.Under such circumstances, this action completely enraged Xiao Guo, he didn't say a word, and the movement of leaping forward was like a beast, forming a smooth and astonishing curve between muscle contractions.Teng Cuo was forced to keep retreating, but in the next second the saber had been blown away by Xiao Guo, his hands were numb, and he was knocked down by Xiao Guo again.
Teng accidentally fell on the mini-greenhouse planted with poppies. The glass covered with poppies and the snow-white lights were dyed blood red by the color of the petals on the other side, and all shattered under his body.
Xiao Guo was also in a daze for a moment, he watched Teng Cuo looked up at him, struggling to stand up but failed.Teng Cuo's expression was very stiff, his eyes lacked any brilliance, and they were frighteningly white under the lamp. The corners of his mouth were bleeding, and the poppy petals were stained with blood, sticking to his side face, making him look like a ghost.
The pain rushed to Teng Cuo's brain, he blinked and said in a daze, "Brother Xiao, you hit me..."
His eyes were red, Xiao Guo bent down, grabbed Teng Cuo's clothes, and pulled up Teng Cuo's upper body.Teng Cuo's breathing was blocked, and he raised his hand to touch it, and it lay weakly on Xiao Guo's palm.
He tried hard to get air into his lungs and said, "Brother Xiao..."
"Don't call me," Xiao Guo gritted his teeth and said, "You're not Xiao Zhuo."
Teng Cuo forced the corner of his mouth to say, "I am."
"You are not!" Xiao Guo roared explosively: "Look at this place, what is it? Poppies! Do you know that this is a drug? This is a crime! Look at what you look like now, a cabinet full of money and Gun! You are working for the garden, right? You graduated with a doctorate and then researched drugs for others! Teng Wrong, why did you become like this!"
He shook his head when he spoke, as if he could call this person back.Teng Cuo couldn't speak, Xiao Guo lowered his voice and said, "Do you know that this thing is harmful? Do you know how many people die every year because of drug addiction? The person who enters is a lifetime. Every day, anti-narcotics policemen die, what are they for, and who are they for?" His voice became hoarse, "How dare you do something like this!"
These words burst out from his chest, Xiao Guo saw an indescribable despair in Teng Cuo's eyes.Teng Cuo's hands slipped down. This is the first time Xiao Guo has treated him like this since they met. The man is not good at words, and he can always give Teng Cuo a reassuring tolerance. It turns out that he is like this when he gets angry.
Emotions can't be explained, and Teng Cuo feels very wronged. The blood spots on his face make his skin look extremely pale.Xiao Guo relieved a little bit of strength, Teng Cuo panted, he still held Xiao Guo's wrist, and whispered: "Brother Xiao, you are a policeman."
Xiao Guo didn't answer, and slowly let go of Teng Cuo's collar.The matter has come to this point, the identities of the two people are no longer a secret, their reunion was based on lies and temptations, the night Peter Xiao arrived in Yufang City, Xiao Guo was sure that Teng Cuo saw his headset in the bar, But today, everything in the room on the second floor turned all the tenderness and hope in his heart into delusions, the suffocating darkness created by those poppies, and all his previous feelings and loves lost their meaning.
Instead, he pressed Teng Cuo's shoulder with one hand, just like when he was arresting criminals.Teng Cuo looked at him with disbelief in his eyes, and said, "Brother Xiao, you lied to me, you approached me for information about the garden...you still hit me."
Xiao Guo didn't speak, his expression was very sad, with forbearance.Teng Cuo was half lying on the ground under his pressure, looking very sad, and asked, "Are you going to arrest me?"
Xiao Guo still didn't speak, and wanted to force Teng Cuo to stand up.Teng Cuo narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Xiao, I don't want to do this either."
Xiao Guo wanted to say something, but Teng Cuo's movements were unexpectedly fast.When pointing the pistol, Xiao Guo only saw a dark shadow, and then the black hole at the end of the barrel had stopped a few centimeters away from his forehead.
Teng Cuo sat up and looked at Xiao Guo with dark eyes.He held the gun extremely skillfully, and his fingers as thin as flower stalks were tightly pressed against the trigger.The gun was loaded, and Xiao Guo looked into Teng Cuo's eyes, completely believing that he would shoot.
The two stood up together, during which Teng Cuo did not have any openings, and Xiao Guo did not find a chance to fight back for the time being.Teng wrongly pushed Xiao Guo down the stairs, stepped on a pile of money when he walked out of the room, Xiao Guo looked down and asked in a low voice, "Did you break the law just for the money?"
"...Well." Teng Cuo said behind him: "Who says it's not, it's nice to have money."
Xiao Guo's shoulders stiffened, he was not satisfied with the answer, and asked again: "Why did you become like this?"
"For money," Teng Cuo said, "how can I support myself without money?"
Xiao Guo felt a deep sense of powerlessness, Teng Cuo let him sit on the sofa, and then the room became quiet, Teng Cuo looked at him, as if he was thinking about what to do next.The dog turned around at the feet of the two people, the curtains in the living room were open, the moonlight came in, and everywhere was covered with sad white.
"Xiao Zhuo," Xiao Guo said with his back straight, without fear of the gun pointed at his head, "come with me and surrender."
Teng Cuo shook his head and said, "No."
Xiao Guo's body leaned forward slightly, he was really lacking in words, at this moment he just said: "Take it easy, I know you can figure it out. Xiao Zhuo, come surrender with me, you still have a choice."
He begged in a low voice, but Teng Zuo laughed and said, "Brother Xiao, you are as naive as when you were in school."
Something was brought up from the depths of his memory, Xiao Guo was a little dazed.Teng Cuo shook his head at him and said, "I can't turn back, I never had a choice."
Xiao Guo stopped talking, and looked up slightly at Teng Cuo, his face and demeanor were very cold.His hair is very short, completely revealing his tough facial features, as well as the disappointment and anger in his eyes when he looked at Teng Cuo.Teng Cuo searched desperately in his memory, and he didn't remember seeing Xiao Guo like this.
Teng Cuo said: "Brother Xiao, don't hate me."
Xiao Guo looked at him for a while, shook his head slowly, and said, "My parents and I are also responsible for what you have become like this."
Teng Cuo's eyes gradually turned red with tears, Xiao Guo saw it very accurately, and flew over at this moment, Teng Cuo was taken aback, and instinctively pointed the hand holding the gun to the side.Xiao Guo supported the coffee table and kicked over, the gun was kicked out and slid to the corner of the living room.Teng Cuo was regretting that he hadn't knocked Xiao Guo out with the butt of his gun just now, and was thrown to the ground by Xiao Guo.
When he fell down, his back hit the coffee table, and Teng Cuo hurt so much that his breathing was slow.But he stretched out his hand to grab Xiao Guo, and the two entangled and wrestled together, rolling off the coffee table to the ground.Teenage lovers and fatal attraction are all lies when good and evil confront each other. What happens here and now is a confrontation between police and robbers.Both of them showed no mercy under their fists, and the wounds on Teng Cuo's forehead and mouth corners were bleeding, dripping in the pale moonlight.He finally saw how powerful Xiao Guo was, in the face of absolute strength and skills, he had almost no room to fight back.
When rolling over, Xiao Guo's palm rested on the back of Teng Cuo's head, and he didn't know why he stretched out his hand.Then he probably understood, so he grabbed Teng Cuo's long hair fiercely, and successfully suppressed him.Teng Cuo was pressed to the ground, his head was pulled back forcefully, and his neck showed a shockingly soft and beautiful line.
"Stop it, Xiao Zhuo, I beg you, stop it." Xiao Guo whispered into his ear, his voice trembling violently, "I know you are suffering, I am sorry for you, and many others are sorry for you, I know, I'm wrong, they're wrong...but that's no excuse for your crime. You've got a long way to go, come with me, come with me, okay? You trust me. You can't Go on like this, Xiao Zhuo, do you hear me? I beg you..."
He desperately tried to convince Teng Cuo, calling him "Xiao Zhuo" over and over again.Teng Cuo was in pain, and the severe pain made it difficult for him to think. Another scene even appeared in his brain. He told Xiao Guo who he was, and then they hugged tightly. He apologizes, and they kiss, make love, and live their lives together.
However, he has also seen the consequences of being greedy for a while, the heroic soul cannot rest in peace, the blood in the ground is endless, and the journey is not as firm as before.What he believes, loves and desires are all hanging on the tip of the blade, and he cannot live in peace.
Pure land and lover, Teng Cuo wants both.His fingertips scraped blood on the floor, and because he tilted his head up, he could only make a painful and indistinct sound from his throat.
"Xiao... Brother Xiao..." he said with difficulty, "It hurts."
Xiao Guo didn't hear his words clearly, blood was in Teng Cuo's mouth, and every time he said a word, he seemed to be whimpering.Teng Cuo barely supported his body with his hands, Xiao Guo could feel his trembling, the body that was originally stiff and resisting gradually fell down, gave up resistance extremely slowly, and finally swayed powerlessly under him.
Xiao Guo let go of him and grabbed Teng Cuo's wrist.Teng Cuo adjusted his posture, changed to lying on his side, and said in a strange calm: "Brother Xiao."
Xiao Guo used his other hand to brush away his long hair scattered around his face, and said, "I'm here."
"I won't resist anymore... But, we will not see each other in the future." Teng Cuo's hand was pressed on his chest in a twisted posture, but he didn't seem to feel the pain.He raised his eyes to look at Xiao Guo and asked, "Will you visit me every year?"
Xiao Guo looked down at him, Teng Cuo slightly opened his mouth to breathe, his seductive lips formed a sexy arc, but his eyes were drooping and his eyelashes fluttered intermittently, this is a beautiful and lifeless person .
Xiao Guo said, "Yes."
"If I'm a good person," Teng Cuo asked, "will you be nice to me?"
Xiao Guo said, "I've always been with you."
Teng wrong said: "Yeah."
Then he didn't speak any more, closed his eyes and curled up his legs, and lay down quietly for a while, Xiao Guo's hand kept clasping his wrist firmly.Teng Cuo gently raised the corners of his mouth, and his smile carried something similar to tolerance.
Finally Xiao Guo said: "Let's go, Xiao Zhuo."
Teng Cuo didn't move, Xiao Guo looked at him sadly, every word he uttered was very clear, and smashed into Teng Cuo's eardrum and heart with great force.
Xiao Guo said: "If something happens to you, I will wait for you, and I will be with you no matter what. Xiao Zhuo, don't be afraid."
"Stay with me..." Teng Cuo looked tired, "Why stay with me?"
Xiao Guo said: "If you go to prison, I will wait for you outside."
Teng Cuo asked: "Aren't you nice to others?"
"Disharmony," Xiao Guo said, "I'll wait for you."
Teng Cuo asked: "Then what if I die?"
Xiao Guo said, "I will accompany you too."
"Don't," Teng Cuo rubbed his head against the ground and shook his head, "Then I don't want you to accompany me."
Xiao Guo was silent for a long time, and then said: "Yes." He leaned slightly, and said earnestly: "Let's go, Xiao Zhuo."
He wanted to pull Teng Cuo up, but Teng Cuo waved his hand on his chest. There was no pain when the injection was inserted into the skin, but the push of the syringe left strength on Xiao Guo's side neck.He raised his hand to cover his neck, and looked at Teng Cuo in shock. Teng Cuo was still lying on the ground, but his smile was gone.
"Brother Xiao," Teng Cuo said, "I'm sorry."
Xiao Guo still twisted his hand, trying to lead him to stand up, but he fell down halfway.He was pressed against Teng Cuo, his eyes were open and he was still conscious, but his vision was a little distorted, and his limbs were too heavy to move.Teng Cuo pushed his shoulders with his hands, causing the two of them to reverse their positions.Xiao Guo's hand touched Teng Cuo's thigh, but he couldn't make any effort, it was as if he was stroking.
"I don't want you to die, and I don't want to die either." Teng Cuo licked the blood on his lips, pressed against Xiao Guo's forehead, and said, "So, Brother Xiao, sleep well, and don't look for me when you wake up."
Xiao Guo's chest kept rising and falling violently, he pulled his lips desperately, and made a voice as if he was drunk: "Xiao Zhuo..."
Teng Zuo smiled, looked up at the messy living room, and looked at the stray dogs huddled in the corner.Then he lowered his head and said to Xiao Guo: "Brother Xiao, the dog is quite innocent, can you raise it for me? I have decided on the name, and I will call it 'Hundred Years'. Because—"
He smiled, and said at the moment Xiao Guo closed his eyes: "I want you to be safe and happy, and live a long life."
