Chapter 36

"Wu Tong, I don't question your behavior, but don't question my love for you." Xiao Yuncheng's expression became serious, and Wu Tong couldn't help feeling bitter.

Xiao Yuncheng didn't care about that. He had to make Wu Tong realize what he would face on this road and let him know how to rely on others.

"If even you don't believe me, then I think there's no need for us."

"No!" Wu Tong couldn't stand it anymore and he retorted anxiously, but he also knew that he seemed to have no position. Wu Tong lowered his head, and Xiao Yuncheng knew that Wu Tong was crying.

But Xiao Yuncheng would not coax him. He just watched Wu Tong cry coldly. Even if Wu Tong cried, there was no sound. In fact, he had rarely cried since he was a child, but he cried twice because of Xiao Yuncheng.

Wu Tong really cares about Xiao Yuncheng.

Xiao Yuncheng could see it, of course, but if he didn't provoke Wu Tong, he wouldn't know how to rely on himself. Isn't a boyfriend meant to be relied on? Why didn't Wu Tong want him to know?

Xiao Yuncheng's voice was steady, but also revealed a hint of seriousness. He looked at Wu Tong and said, "You think it's okay to do this now, but what about after you come back? What should you do? Have you thought about it, Wu Tong?"

Why hadn't Wu Tong thought about this? It was because he had thought about it that he didn't want Xiao Yuncheng to get involved, but Xiao Yuncheng didn't think so.

"Wu Tong, if you really don't want to rely on me, you shouldn't have provoked me in the first place." Xiao Yuncheng's voice turned completely cold.

Wu Tong looked at Xiao Yuncheng helplessly, not knowing what to say for a moment. Xiao Yuncheng didn't want to wait for his response and continued, "I know you want to kill Chen Xiuping, and I know you will bear all the consequences silently, but have you ever thought about me? What should I do? Let you go to your death? Wu Tong, you..."

As Xiao Yuncheng spoke, he became more and more emotional. He suddenly stopped and held his breath with Wu Tong. He didn't want to continue. He was afraid, very afraid. He was afraid that Wu Tong would really leave him. He was afraid that Wu Tong would really just walk away and never care about him again.

Yes, Wu Tong would really take on all of this himself as Xiao Yuncheng thought. He was just a dying man, and after taking revenge, Wu Tong would not have to be attached to anything. But now it is different. Xiao Yuncheng has come into his dark life, and everything has changed. Wu Tong will worry and take care of Xiao Yuncheng.

Wu Tong now wants to protect Xiao Yuncheng and doesn't want him to get involved, but Xiao Yuncheng doesn't want to be a spectator and he doesn't want to stand idly by.

Wu Tong finally opened his mouth and said softly: "I'm sorry, I didn't think about it..."

"Do you understand what I mean?" Xiao Yuncheng was getting anxious when he saw Wu Tong couldn't get to the point. He reached out and grabbed Wu Tong's wrist, pulling him towards him. "I'm not telling you this to ask you to apologize to me."

"Wu Tong, I want you to need me, understand?"

Wu Tong looked at Xiao Yuncheng in shock, his pupils trembling at a very small amplitude, just like his heart beating continuously, beating his body chaotically but violently. Wu Tong finally couldn't help it and cried silently in Xiao Yuncheng's arms.

He really endured too much that he shouldn't have endured. The knife on his neck has never been put down since he was a child. Wu Tong licked blood on the tip of the knife and didn't know how many times he had been in front of the gate of the king of hell. Perhaps the one who came out was no longer the original Wu Tong.

Xiao Yuncheng had never experienced this, but he knew how difficult it was for Wu Tong to get to where he is today. It was almost impossible to ask someone who had been abandoned so many times to trust others quickly, but for Wu Tong, Xiao Yuncheng was an exception, his only exception.

"So Tongtong, listen to me, okay? Let's be together, clean and innocent." Xiao Yuncheng said gently. When he said that, Wu Tong was already thinking about what he would get by doing this, but now it seems unimportant.

Yes, it seems that Xiao Yuncheng is the only one I have, Wu Tong thought.

Finally, Wu Tong was the first to let go of his anger. He stretched out his hand to Xiao Yuncheng for comfort. Xiao Yuncheng naturally couldn't refuse. He immediately leaned over and hugged him in his arms, muttering to himself: "Did I say too harshly? Why are you crying..."

Wu Tong was still feeling uncomfortable, but after hearing Xiao Yuncheng's self-confession, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. He raised his head, and his dark pupils lit up again. Wu Tong tilted his head: "You know it too, brother."

Following Wu Tong's directions, they arrived at the house in the video smoothly. Wu Tong got out of the car, but because she had just been crying, Shi Qian quickly noticed that the corners of Wu Tong's eyes were red. He rushed over, put his arm around Wu Tong's shoulders, and asked, "What's wrong? Are you crying?"

Wu Tong was stunned for a moment, and seemed to realize that the expression on his face was not very good. He simply did not answer, waiting for Xiao Yuncheng to solve the problem. Sure enough, Xiao Yuncheng's voice soon rang out: "We discussed something on the way, and we got emotional."

Xiao Yuncheng then pulled Shi Qian's hand away again, angrily scolding him, "Why do you always touch other people's partners?"

Shi Qian: “…”

Wu Tong didn't say much to them, but walked straight towards the hut. His past experiences kept coming to his mind. What came from the hut in front of him was not laughter, but the heart-wrenching cry of a child. Wu Tong felt dizzy for a moment, and the crying kept surrounding his ears. He could hardly see what was in front of him.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuncheng stepped forward in time to support him. Realizing that Wu Tong might be stressed, he asked the forensic doctor to get some sedatives. After Wu Tong recovered, he thanked the forensic doctors one by one, and then stood obediently beside Xiao Yuncheng.

"Are you still feeling uncomfortable?" Xiao Yuncheng said to Wu Tong in a low voice. Wu Tong shook his head and led everyone into the hut. The sun set completely and the village fell into darkness. The truth buried underground began to leak out and was laughed at in unknown corners.

When the dusty door was pushed open, a foul smell immediately rushed out, making everyone stunned. Wu Tong covered his nose with his hand and walked in. There were a pile of bottles and jars inside, filled with turbid and dirty chemicals. It looked like a secret paradise for drug addicts.

Xiao Yuncheng ordered everyone to search, and he put on gloves and joined them. Wu Tong watched from the side. Because it was not convenient for him to touch the things at the scene directly, Wu Tong looked at Xiao Yuncheng bending over and carefully examining a pile of jars on the ground, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

The room was not big, but there were so many things in it that it was difficult to put one's feet. One had to walk very carefully for fear of stepping on something. Wu Tong stood aside and watched quietly. Feeling a little bored, he began to look around the house.

The style hadn't changed much, but there were a lot more things on the ground. Wu Tong still remembered that he was beaten in here. His legs were numb from the beating. They threw him here and left without caring. Then Xu Ze came in to comfort him. Wu Tong smiled sarcastically and looked away.

"Captain Xiao, these jars contain drug ingredients, and Chen Xiuping's fingerprints were detected in a wide distribution."

Xiao Yuncheng was listening quietly, when suddenly something caught his sight. He looked up and found a small piece of white cloth hanging on the wall on the other side.

"What is that? Bring it here for me to see." Xiao Yuncheng said, pointing at the white cloth.

Wu Tong also noticed the piece of white cloth that was not very conspicuous in the dark. Seeing Xiao Yuncheng take it in his hand, Wu Tong also came over and put his head close to Xiao Yuncheng.

Seeing Wu Tong coming over, Xiao Yuncheng asked casually, "Do you think there's something wrong with this?"

"Yes." Wu Tong nodded without hesitation, which surprised Xiao Yuncheng.

"Why?"

"It's almost the same material and color as the clothes I wore when I was a child." Wu Tong said, frowning again. This was his usual expression when he was thinking, but Xiao Yuncheng felt that Wu Tong at this time was very... sexy.

Xiao Yuncheng, realizing that his thoughts were deviant, immediately retracted his gaze, coughed twice in a pretentious manner, picked up the white cloth and looked for clues with Wu Tong.

The whole piece of white cloth was not clean, with some dust on it, but it was not very dirty. Xiao Yuncheng took it in his hand and let Wu Tong see it. Wu Tong looked around carefully. Xiao Yuncheng asked him if he found anything, but he replied that he found nothing.

Xiao Yuncheng was a little confused. He looked at it again and found that there was indeed no clue. It was just an ordinary piece of white cloth... Maybe.

Despite this, Xiao Yuncheng's suspicion remained undiminished. He put the white cloth into the evidence bag and said he would take it back for a thorough inspection.

But Wu Tong did feel strange.

They knew that everything Xu Ze did was filled with memories. Wu Tong felt that the white cloth was too familiar, so it couldn't be that there was nothing on it.

Xiao Yuncheng was talking to someone, and Wu Tong was walking around the room alone. Xiao Yuncheng said that he was afraid that Wu Tong would escape secretly again, so he let him into the scene. Wu Tong said that he didn't have such an idea, but Captain Xiao didn't believe it. What could he do?

Wu Tong walked to a table and stopped. The table was quite low, barely reaching his knees. Wu Tong squatted down and looked over the items on the table. Finally, he found something strange: the items on the table were mostly old and tattered, but among the garbage, there lay a brand new candle.

Wu Tong turned around and called Xiao Yuncheng over, pointing at the candle and said, "I have a guess..."

Xiao Yuncheng took out the white cloth, and Wu Tong borrowed a lighter from someone and lit the candle in his hand. The small flame on the top of the candle danced restlessly. Xiao Yuncheng spread the white cloth as flat as possible, and Wu Tong grabbed the candle and moved the flame towards the white cloth!

The magical thing is that the white cloth was not ignited. Instead, words gradually emerged on the white cloth!

It reads: PW01·The moon peeks at us for the first time.

Xiao Yuncheng looked at Wu Tong who was standing aside. The firelight rushed towards his face, making Wu Tong's face hot, but his eyes did not warm up because of it. On the contrary, they were extremely cold.

Xiao Yuncheng had never seen Wu Tong truly serious. Usually, Wu Tong was very gentle and good-tempered. He would only swear occasionally, but he had never seen Wu Tong really look cold.

The muscles on Wu Tong's forehead twitched violently. These were the same words Xu Ze had written in Wu Tong's diary—they were also his last words.
