Chapter 1397 It’s Cheng Zhiyuan
The old memories are like a clay jar buried in the dark soil, but what is contained inside is not the wine that becomes more mellow with age, but the yellowed and dusty book.
It was placed on Chu Yan's desk, and under the light, it gave off a rotten and almost fishy smell.
How can it not smell?
It is stained with the blood of his parents who died unjustly, and carries his almost pathological obsession and persistence as he walked alone in the darkness all these years.
Chu Yan leaned against the wide chair back with a relaxed posture, but his spine was in perfect harmony with the chair surface, straight and even stiff, like steel that would never break.
He looked at the yellowed account book for a long time without moving it.
Such a silent gaze seemed to stretch the night out.
When Shark delivered the things, he couldn't hide his excitement and asked repeatedly whether it was real.
Of course it's true.
Chu Yan's pupils were unfocused, and he stared at the booklet almost in a trance.
At the beginning, he personally used this thing to exchange for his only remaining sister from the Su family.
I didn’t dare to meet people, so I had to leave all my things at the designated place, just like a businessman who handed over money and goods but did not trust each other.
He still remembered the joy he felt at the thought of being reunited with his sister. He also remembered that the news of his parents' death had not been spread at that time. He also remembered that he thought his sister's release was just the beginning, and that his parents would eventually be released as well.
But it was not until they met that he discovered that his previously clever sister could no longer speak.
Her face was pale, and her body seemed to have been drained of flesh, leaving only a skeleton that would break with a pinch. She was afraid of the light and went crazy when she saw numbers. She couldn't call her brother and couldn't even think. It took him a long time to make her recognize him again.
She seemed to be stuck in a recurring nightmare forever, and when she woke up she just wanted her mind to be blank.
While the psychiatric department was telling her that her sister might never recover and her IQ might gradually decline, the news of her parents' death also made international news.
The world changed color from then on, and he knew that he would never be able to look back at Chu Yan again.
So, following that name, he sewed everything into his heart, one stitch at a time, leaving behind a hidden and ugly scar that still oozes rancid blood.
He took on the identity and appearance of Chu Yan, and with an unknown mentally ill sister, he walked arduously and hard on this long road of revenge.
Today, he can finally heal this scar.
Chu Yan pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile as stiff and pale as painted skin.
There was a sudden knock on the office door, and Chu Yan indifferently asked someone to come in.
Shark walked in quickly with his phone in hand, lowering his head and saying,
"Boss, urgent news has come from Yungang that there was a sudden disturbance in the prison. A criminal with weapons attempted to escape and killed many people. The Ning brothers and sisters were accidentally injured and died."
"All the other deceased were found to have had contact with the Ning brothers and sisters. The prison guards and prisoners we sent in were also dead. Look at this..."
He spoke hesitantly, but Chu Yan only raised the corner of his mouth, not showing any surprise.
"It's Cheng Zhiyuan."
To be fair, if someone important to him had their weakness caught by someone else, he would only be more ruthless than Cheng Zhiyuan.
It is better to kill a thousand people by mistake than to let one go.
But he didn't expect that Cheng Zhiyuan would act so quickly.
