misfortune
"It's really funny, the two of us are always suspicious of each other like this." After throwing the cigarette on the ground and stamping it out with his foot, Shi Wu walked up to Feng Yun. "I know who it is, so my advice to you is, you should leave here as soon as possible."
"You don't need to tell me this, I know it very well." Feng Yun kept organizing things in his hands. He did suspect Liu at the beginning, but the more likely person was actually someone else.
"Actually, I'm a little confused as to why you came back?" Liu Shiwu said as he looked around the shop. "What's so good about this place? If it weren't for my mom, I would have left long ago."
"Did you come here today just to say these few words to me?"
"I was just wandering around. Who said I was always looking for you to talk to?"
"Oh, you're going out for a stroll at this hour? What can you possibly do? How many shops on the street are open?" Feng Yun didn't believe it at all. "Okay, just say what you want to say. I'm going to be very busy today and I don't have time to chat with you."
Liu Shiwu didn't know what to say. In fact, he didn't come here specifically to find Feng Yun. It was just that he didn't sleep all night last night. He finally made it to dawn, so he got up immediately and planned to go out for breakfast.
He just happened to pass by and remembered what he heard yesterday, so he walked over to take a look. Unexpectedly, Feng Yun was already in the store at this time.
"I'm really fine. I'm going to have breakfast." Liu Shiwu said and really left.
Feng Yun casually sorted out some account books, and for some reason he felt uneasy.
So he decided to go home and bought some breakfast on the way.
"Just got up?" Feng Yun saw Shi Yiqing coming out of the room as soon as he opened the door.
"yes."
"That's perfect, I brought you breakfast." After Feng Yun set the breakfast, he walked to the window and opened the curtains to let the sunlight in. When Feng Yun lowered his head, he saw the back of a man in gray clothes downstairs. He glanced at him and then looked away.
After watching Shi Yiqing finish breakfast, Feng Yun planned to go back to the store alone to continue tidying up.
He had already taken inventory of the store's goods and had called the supplier to find some that could be returned. He could also sell some to the restaurants at a low price, but for some, it might take a few days to process them.
After a busy day, Feng Yun stopped and found that it was already dark. It seemed that it was time to go home.
When he was almost home, Feng Yun sensitively noticed something. He looked back and saw several pedestrians walking by him, and there were also a few people not far behind him. Everything seemed normal, as if there was nothing wrong.
Feng Yun thought he was just being too sensitive, after all, that was what happened yesterday.
Then he continued walking forward. When he reached the downstairs of his apartment building, Feng Yun paused, squatted down to tie his shoelaces, and after about ten seconds, he started going upstairs.
"Stay inside obediently. No matter what you hear or what happens, don't come out, okay?" As soon as he entered the door, Feng Yun said this to Shi Yiqing in a serious tone.
Although he didn't know what was going on, Shi Yiqing nodded.
So Feng Yun, who had just entered the door, turned around and left again, leaving Shi Yiqing at home feeling a little uneasy.
Feng Yun closed and locked the door, then turned and went downstairs.
He saw three people standing downstairs. When they saw him coming down, one of them smiled and greeted him.
"I wasn't mistaken, it really is you. Long time no see, Feng Yun." The man acted like a friend he hadn't seen for a long time.
"It's been a long time." Although Feng Yun had a smile on his face, he was wary in his heart. "Brother Wu, why don't we find a place to sit down and have a good chat?"
"That's not necessary. Why don't we just go directly to your house?" Wu Ge said, looking up at the upstairs.
"If it's at home, I'm afraid it's not very convenient." Feng Yun saw the other party's actions and tried his best to suppress the unhappiness in his heart.
"That's right. Look at my brain. I forgot that your wife is pregnant. She must be resting now. I shouldn't disturb her."
"What exactly do you want to talk to me about?" Feng Yun lost his patience when he saw Wu Ge mentioned Shi Yiqing.
"What's wrong? Are you scared? Or are you feeling guilty?" Seeing the expression on Feng Yun's face, Brother Wu chuckled.
"I just don't understand why you are following me." Feng Yun saw the man in gray standing beside him. This man was the one whose back he had seen this morning. He also saw this man walking past him on his way home just now. He had just noticed it.
"You're right. I did follow you. I heard about it when you came back, but I never came to see you. Because I thought you were a smart person. So don't play dumb now. You know why I came to see you today."
"I guessed why you came, but I want to say that this matter has nothing to do with me."
"You know what? I admired you at first, but I didn't expect you to be so smart and get out of it so quickly." Wu Ge said, patting Feng Yun on the shoulder. "Now it seems that I was right. After you came back, you actually gave me such a big gift."
"Brother Wu, it really wasn't me who called the police."
"How did the police know? You know how careful we are. We've never made any mistakes before. How come we got into trouble as soon as you came back? Do you know how much we lost this time?"
"I didn't do this, and I don't think you can't find out. Perhaps this is your solution?" Feng Yun sneered. "Just find a scapegoat."
"Don't say anything, just tell me what you want to do."
"Just come with me to meet someone."
"I'm afraid that won't work. Brother Wu, you're so eloquent that you can even turn black into white. If I go, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."
"That's not up to you." After Wu Ge said this, the two people who had been standing beside him without saying a word suddenly walked towards Feng Yun.

Shi Yiqing saw everything downstairs from the window, so after seeing those people taking Feng Yun away, she did not stay at home obediently as she had promised Feng Yun before.
Shi Yiqing went downstairs without hesitation. She was also glad that she followed him, otherwise, she might regret it for the rest of her life.
In a dim alley, several people were fighting with each other.
In addition to Feng Yun and the previous three people, there was one more person who appeared at some point, and Shi Yiqing happened to know this person, Liu Shiwu.
When two people face three people, they will inevitably suffer losses. Shi Yiqing has been keeping an eye on the situation inside the alley.
When Shi Yiqing saw someone walking towards Feng Yun with a bottle of wine, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and took out the thin iron rod he had just picked up from someone else's door in the corridor.
Because no one noticed her presence, the man was hit on the head with a stick by her and fell to the ground.
The other two people had no strength to resist at this time. They looked at each other, left their companion behind and ran away.
"Didn't I tell you not to come down?" Feng Yun was shocked and frightened when he saw Shi Yiqing coming down from nowhere. He hugged Shi Yiqing, whose face was pale and whose hands were shaking, in his arms.
"You take her away first. I'll handle this. I'll call the police later." Liu walked a few steps closer, squatted down, and sniffed the person lying on the ground. He turned to Feng Yun and said, seeing the hesitation on Feng Yun's face, he urged him again. "Go, what are you still standing here for? If you don't take her away now, you won't be able to leave when they bring people back."
Feng Yun glanced at Liu, then pulled Shi Yiqing away. They first went back home, quickly packed their luggage, and Feng Yun took Shi Yiqing to the station.
"Hello, a ticket to City M." Feng Yun shouted at the ticket office.
"Why only buy one ticket? Aren't you going with me?" Shi Yiqing asked Feng Yun in confusion after hearing what he said, and held his hand tightly.
"You go first, I'll come find you soon." Feng Yun had no choice but to comfort her. "Don't worry, I've already told Du Qiming about it."
"Then you have to promise me that you will come to see me as soon as possible."
"Okay, I promise you." Because they arrived at the perfect time and the bus was about to depart, Feng Yun helped her carry the luggage up and then got off. He smiled at Shi Yiqing who was leaning out of the window and said, "Be careful on the road."
"Don't do anything dangerous. Come back to me safely."
After Feng Yun sent everyone away, he immediately rushed back to his previous place.
But from a distance, I found that there was only one person lying there under the dim street light.
He thought Liu had left, but the closer he got, the more he felt something was wrong. Wu Ge had not fallen in this position before.
I walked closer with suspicion in my heart and finally saw clearly that the person lying on the ground was Liu Shiwu, and there was a mobile phone next to him.
He guessed that he was attacked just when he was about to call the police.
Feng Yun noticed that the iron rod Shi Yiqing had used on the ground was now stained with blood. He remembered that there was no blood there before. So he squatted down to check on Liu and found that there was indeed a bleeding wound on Liu's head.
Just as he was about to stand up, he noticed the sound of sirens coming closer and closer.
He turned around and saw a police car parked at the entrance of the alley, with several policemen getting out of the car.
"Stop, put your hands up, don't move." One of the men pulled out a gun and said.
Feng Yun squinted his eyes because of the glaring headlights and did as he was told.
So, that night, he was arrested by the police and became a suspect.
Feng Yun was not worried at first. He thought that everything would be fine after Liu woke up.
But Liu's condition is not optimistic, and even the doctor doesn't know when he will wake up.
After he waited patiently for a few days, he started to get impatient.
The case made new progress a few days later, with witnesses accusing him of intentional injury.
So Feng Yun was ultimately unable to go find Shi Yiqing as quickly as he had promised.
