Chapter 21: Brilliant Bones



After assigning the locations to be guarded and the people to be disguised, Chen Sheng rushed out. He wanted to call his brothers in the underworld to come and help.

Various things began to proceed in an orderly manner. Xu Xuening was looking forward to Wei Zizhou's help. She also hated Duan Wei with gnashing teeth and waited for the end of the world to come so that Duan Wei could taste that feeling sooner.

Late at night, Wei Zizhou watched as Zhang Kaiyue fell asleep hugging a pillow, and Chen Sheng still hadn't returned.

He couldn't sleep, so he went to the rooftop.

The guest rooms in the hotel that Xu Xuening rented were unusually large, almost taking up the entire floor. There were five guest bedrooms alone, and the open-air balcony was as large as two large houses.

Late at night, Wei Zizhou watched as Zhang Kaiyue fell asleep hugging a pillow, and Chen Sheng still hadn't returned.

A person sat by an open-air swimming pool. Wei Zizhou pushed open the sliding door and saw Xu Xuening sitting by the pool. She looked like she was deep in thought, her brow furrowed with worry.

Perhaps worried about his son, Wei Zizhou walked over and sat next to Xu Xuening, stepping his feet into the clear and cool water.

"Don't worry too much, I will definitely find your son." Wei Zizhou comforted her.

Xu Xuening didn't look at Wei Zizhou. She knew that Wei Zizhou was worried about her.

"Officer Wei, this is not what I'm worried about. I believe that with you, Xiaohai will definitely come back." Xu Xuening shook her head slightly. She believed in Wei Zizhou more than anyone else.

Wei Zizhou looked at Xu Xuening. After so many years in the industry, he had seen too many people lie, so he had already developed a habit of distinguishing whether the other person was lying or not.

But the person in front of him made him stunned.

After the cat fled, the person lying next to the trash can remained motionless, lying on the ground in the sewage, eyes wide open. Aside from the two eyes moving, the flesh on his face had rotted away, leaving only bones.

Although I have seen some people who trust the police, this is the first time I have seen someone who trusts himself so much.

She didn't believe in Mr. Chen, nor did she believe in the uniform he was wearing, but she believed in herself.

For the first time in his life, Wei Zizhou didn't know what to say.

He sat quietly beside Xu Xuening, and actually accompanied her to look at the pool water.

After a long silence, Wei Zizhou decided that chatting at night would be a good thing. He looked up at the person opposite him and asked casually, "What doomsday are you talking about?"

Xu Xuening looked at the people around her, staring at him quietly without saying a word. Wei Zizhou couldn't stand this atmosphere.

The wild cat following the smell originally never visited this place with a strong smell of alcohol, but recently, countless wild birds have been placed in the trash cans in this place, and birds of various species can be eaten every time without having to catch them with their own hands. For this person who wanders the streets and alleys and has to avoid hunting cats from time to time, it is not easy for him to have such a rich meal of meat even if he wants to.

There seemed to be endless vicissitudes hidden in her eyes, and she seemed to have experienced countless hardships and dangers, but at this moment, she could not utter a word.

Perhaps he had misheard. Wei Zizhou smiled bitterly, thinking he had been too sensitive before. The end of the world? How could it be possible?

The more Wei Zizhou thought about it, the more he felt that he had heard it wrong.

"Forget it, I heard it wrong just now, just pretend I didn't say it." Wei Zizhou looked at the person opposite and continued.

After saying that, Wei Zizhou looked at the pool of clear water and Xu Xuening. If this place wasn't rented by someone else, he really wanted to jump in and clear his mind.

He must have been overthinking it just now!

Just as he stood up and wanted to get a piece of clothing for Xu Xuening, he heard someone behind him pulling his hand.

"Here, Brother Wei." Zhang Kaiyue, who followed Chen Sheng, took out a black marker and handed it to Zhang Kaiyue.

He turned around and looked at the person at his feet. The clear eyes were staring at him, seemingly filled with endless tears.

For a moment, Wei Zizhou became a little flustered.

The wild cat following the smell originally never visited this place with a strong smell of alcohol, but recently, countless wild birds have been placed in the trash cans in this place, and birds of various species can be eaten every time without having to catch them with their own hands. For this person who wanders the streets and alleys and has to avoid hunting cats from time to time, it is not easy for him to have such a rich meal of meat even if he wants to.

He frantically tried to wipe away Xu Xuening's tears, but she quickly wiped them away with her hands, and a strong look appeared on her face again.

Xu Xuening quickly calmed down.

She looked at Wei Zizhou quietly, hesitating for a long time, wondering whether she should tell him about the end of the world.

After a long silence, Wei Zizhou felt a little numb from standing there.

Although I have seen some people who trust the police, this is the first time I have seen someone who trusts himself so much.

Just when he decided to break the awkward silence and leave to go back to sleep, Xu Xuening's voice sounded behind him.

"I have a secret"

Xu Xuening looked at the people around her, staring at him quietly without saying a word. Wei Zizhou couldn't stand this atmosphere.

Wei Zizhou turned to look at Xu Xuening, not knowing what she was going to say.

"It's the dead of night, why don't you tell the secret?" Although he was quite gossipy, he felt that in this situation, it would easily cause misunderstandings if a man and a woman told each other secrets.
