Chapter 101 Missing Brother's Boyfriend
When the green light turns red, the road is closed.
Jing Xun looked at Lin Zhi beside him, and the touch of his palm made him speechless for a moment.
It must have been very strange for him to suddenly stand in the middle of the road just now. Jing Xun opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain.
"Let's go."
Lin Zhi raised his chin and did not bring up the topic.
There was no surprise, no further questions, as if the little episode just now did not exist.
This is a tacit understanding between them, understanding each other's meaning.
Lin Zhi withdrew his hand, but it was held on the way. He looked over, and in his slightly puzzled gaze, Jing Xun let go of his hand.
Lin Zhi walked towards his destination, the smile in his eyes fleeting.
The hearts of boys of this age are the easiest to arouse. The unexpected touches, the hands that clench and then release, the fingertips that inadvertently slide across the palms when pulling away, the separation and the lasting touch make people unforgettable.
Jing Xun was too direct. At the moment of separation, she held his hand. His hand was very hot, dispelling the dampness and chill of autumn.
But it was obvious that Jing Xun still didn't understand why he was holding his hand tightly.
The person in front of the apartment building was still the familiar face that Lin Zhi had seen before. There was no change.
Although the search for Wei Jinrong had shifted from covert to open, the company and the police here had already searched for him several times and knew that Wei Jinrong would not come back, so they did not add more manpower.
Jing Xun followed behind Lin Zhi and had already sorted out his memories.
This time, what was lost was only a short-term memory of the journey, and he still remembered what happened before he left the house.
Jing Xun was very thankful. Although he thought that he didn't need to force himself to keep what he had forgotten, he would be extremely angry if he forgot such scenery and the details of their interactions.
How can I forget such a beautiful scenery.
In the hall, a woman in professional attire sitting at the table looked at the two men who walked in and blinked.
As a member of the BV company stationed here, she naturally knew that one of them was a colleague who had just arrived here a few days ago.
Behind him followed a mixed-race youth who was half a head taller than him. He looked very young, perhaps in his early twenties, like a young white wolf.
“Visitors need to register.”
She pushed paper and pen in front of the two people and asked them to fill out the form and register.
Lin Zhi wrote down the number of the household he needed to visit, but someone immediately raised his hand to stop him.
"Hello sir, if you want to visit this resident, you need to make a special registration."
Even though she knew this was a colleague, the woman still followed the procedure and got up to find the plainclothes police officer who was waiting there.
They are said to be plainclothes policemen, but in fact they are also people from their company. They have to go through the motions overtly, but the company does not intend to allow two forces to appear in this place, so as to avoid problems in communication and coordination if something really happens.
Lin Zhi and Jing Xun informed the plainclothes policeman of their identities and registered.
"You can go in and take a look, but I need to accompany you the whole time. Don't touch anything inside, and don't take anything away or leave anything behind."
Lin Zhi nodded, and clenched his sleeves with his fingers slightly nervously.
Jing Xun saw Lin Zhi's hand movements through the reflection of the elevator. Her hands were also beautiful and flawless, and because of the low temperature, the backs of her hands were a light reddish purple.
These hands holding a paintbrush or something else would be very pleasing to the eye.
On the way to the home of his brother who disappeared due to a crime, Jing Xun was distracted by his brother's lover's hand, but he didn't consider his brother's safety.
Jing Xun thought that he might really be a little indifferent, but he really didn't have too many worries.
He and his brother are ten years apart in age and they do not have the same father. Before he was kidnapped, he was busy painting and was taken abroad by his parents who were busy with their careers, while his brother was studying in China, which meant that they did not spend much time together.
Although they didn't spend much time together, his relationship with his brother was pretty good, but that was only compared to his relationship with others.
His brother is the third closest person to him in the world, after his parents and then his teacher.
Before he knew that his brother had committed a crime, he thought his brother was just relaxing. After all, he was 30 years old, successful in his career and mature. After knowing the cause and effect given by the authorities, he was not too anxious, no matter whether his brother would be arrested or on the run.
He had said before that his brother was a very meticulous person. If he really did this, it meant that it was the result of his careful consideration, and such a result should have been within his expectations.
Jing Xun looked at Lin Zhi's back, and some guesses emerged in his mind.
So are you the one who was left behind or abandoned by him? Are you showing up because you are unwilling to accept this, or do you have some other purpose?
What is so attractive about him that makes you miss him so much that you travel thousands of miles away from everything familiar and return to your long-lost hometown?
The elevator reached the floor and the door opened after a ding sound.
At the signal from the plainclothes police, Lin Zhi and Jing Xun both put on gloves and shoe covers and walked into the single apartment.
Lin Zhi had already looked around here and there was nothing interesting, but he still looked around carefully.
Jing Xun took in the layout of this single apartment. Although they were in the same city, it was his first time to set foot in his brother's residence. For one thing, he didn't want to go out, and his brother had never invited him.
The furnishings in the room were simple, with nothing special. After being searched by the police, there was not much trace of life left.
When passing the master bedroom, Jing Xun narrowed his eyes.
There seemed to be blood in the corner, not just seemed, Jing Xun was very sure that it was blood that had not been wiped clean.
He was too familiar with the color of dried blood, and it was unlikely that it was deliberately stained in such a remote location. It seemed more like it was splashed on top and not brushed clean.
Jing Xun glanced at the plainclothes policeman standing next to him and did not say anything.
He was a little hesitant about whether to tell Lin Zhi, and even wondered why he was hesitating.
If Lin Zhi knew that something might have happened to her brother, wouldn't she be more determined to stay and wait for the result?
He clearly wanted Lin Zhi to stay and stay with him as long as possible.
Jing Xun found that his thoughts were contradictory. He hoped that his brother was more important to Lin Zhi so as to attract him to stay here longer, but he also hoped that his brother was not that important to Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi compared it with his memory and found some signs of things being moved in the room, which should be caused by another search, such as the disappearance of the wet food and the shifting of the tables and chairs.
He didn't stay long and left with Jing Xun.
"There's a small shop up ahead, would you like to go over and sit down?"
Lin Zhi was talking about the dessert shop two blocks away. The warm-toned decoration made it look very cozy.
"good."
When crossing the road, Jing Xun even lowered his head to look at Lin Zhi's hand.
But this time Lin Zhi did not stretch out his hand. His hands hung empty by his side. He suddenly felt that the weather might have cooled down again, otherwise why was it so cold all of a sudden?
Seeing that Lin Zhi had been silent and seemed to be thinking about something, Jing Xun couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
"I was wondering why Jinrong committed a crime. He was living a good life, why did he do that? Why would he abandon everyone to do that?"
Lin Zhi was thinking about today's plan while replying like this.
In fact, Wei Jinrong's motives are easy to guess. There are only two things that can make him give up such a comfortable life and bear the price of betraying the company.
Or in other words, the only two things that go against common sense are the choices made by everyone.
Either it is an irresistible temptation or a huge reward, whether it is spiritual things like ideals and beliefs, or material things like money.
Either he was caught and had to do it.
Jing Xun didn't quite agree with Lin Zhi's words. After all, his brother's departure didn't mean he or his mother were abandoned. Due to the characteristics of the family, his brother, his mother and his father were not very close. Even if his father wanted to be a good stepfather, he didn't have the time because he was too busy.
He just abandoned you, Jing Xun said with some malice in his heart.
So you don't need to care too much about him.
But he said, "I don't know. Do you want him to be found?"
Lin Zhi thought about it and nodded.
"I should hope for the best for him, but he made a mistake after all."
The days of being on the run may not be easy, it’s not like no one will look for him once he’s abroad.
BV Company's full-scale wanted list is not as simple as finding him in a few places. He has been blacklisted by all his connections, and even a reward has been issued. As long as Wei Jinrong is photographed, he will be in danger of retaliation, unless he can completely undergo plastic surgery to look different and erase the traces, or he has a strong enough umbrella of protection.
However, Lin Zhi felt that Wei Jinrong should still be in the country.
This was his intuition, based on Wei Jinrong's actions.
The cold autumn wind blew the young man's black hair, making his figure look even more lonely.
Jing Xun couldn't see Lin Zhi's expression, but he knew it wasn't worry.
The dessert shop was filled with the aroma of baked pastries. Lin Zhi and Jing Xun each ordered a cup of hot cocoa and a different dessert.
The music in the store played softly, and since it was a weekday there weren't many people coming and going, so the atmosphere was cozy.
Jing Xun hadn't experienced such an ordinary life for a long time. He left the cold house and enjoyed delicious food in a well-heated dessert shop. Opposite him sat someone he could admire. The clock seemed to move slower.
Lin Zhi felt the vibration of the phone in his pocket, and he lowered his eyes slightly after seeing the message.
The company made an emergency contact, provided the cargo location, and asked him to participate in the outflanking operation.
When transporting ancient paintings, because of their precious value, the company naturally packaged them layer by layer and installed trackers on the outer boxes.
The signal disappeared after Wei Jinrong disappeared, but now it suddenly reappeared. Even though they knew it might be another trick, they had to go.
Lin Zhi looked at Jing Xun who was sitting opposite him. He couldn't leave him here alone.
"Want to see a movie?"
Lin Zhi's sudden proposal made Jing Xun a little stunned. He nodded to indicate that it was okay.
"I checked the showtimes at the nearby cinema, and there's a popular movie showing in half an hour."
"good."
Jing Xun nodded, his gray-blue eyes looked very gentle.
"But I have some things to take care of now. Let's meet at the cinema in half an hour, okay?"
Lin Zhi raised her hand to comb Jing Xun's bangs, and her fingertips touched Jing Xun's brow bone.
Jing Xun pursed his lips slightly and nodded under Lin Zhi's gaze.
"Don't forget it."
Lin Zhi curved her eyes and gave soft instructions.
He turned and left, and disappeared in a moment.
Jing Xun felt a little depressed. He didn't like this feeling, the feeling of being alone and forgetting why he was here at any time.
He wrote this down in his memo with a sullen face, reached out and brought the unfinished dessert of Lin Zhi in front of him, scooped a spoonful into his mouth expressionlessly, and the depression in his chest was relieved a little.
It’s not that he hadn’t thought about following Lin Zhi directly, but he was worried that he would lose her and suddenly lose his memory, which would be a troublesome situation.
[I made an appointment with Lin Zhi to meet at the cinema at 10:40. Lin Zhi patted me on the head and told me not to forget, so it’s better not to use this rule. 】
