Yu Min hasn't been going to school lately, and his teachers and classmates don't know where he is.
Yi Mu went to the Computer Science Department to inquire about the situation, and the teacher also instructed Yi Mu to inform the school if he knew anything about Yu Min.
At that moment, the person Yi Mu was looking for came out of the house, skillfully exchanged cigarettes with the person next to him, and then sat on the wooden stool, puffing away.
In just half a month, Yu Min has changed his appearance.
Yi Mu remembers that when they were in school, his classmates would secretly speculate whether Yu Min had obsessive-compulsive disorder.
He always kept himself very clean, didn't like others touching him, and washed his hands many times a day.
But now, he sits on a dusty stool, his clothes yellowed, his hair greasy, laughing and talking with an old smoker next to him with yellowed teeth.
Gambling addiction can change a person, inside and out.
Yu Min's smile was very smooth; only a seasoned veteran of the underworld would wear such a smile.
Only half a month has passed, and everything has changed.
They spoke in very low voices, as if deliberately avoiding certain people.
Yi Mu watched from the side, unable to reveal his identity, and could only watch anxiously.
Lou Xijue saw him looking like an ant on a hot pan and smiled: "You want to know what they're talking about?"
Yi Mu casually asked, "Could it be that you can hear me?"
Lou Xijue pointed to his cheek: "Give me a kiss, and I'll tell you what they're talking about."
Yi Mu kicked him and told him to go play somewhere else.
Lou Xijue touched his nose. "I'll take that as a yes. I'll pay you back for now. I'll translate it for you."
Yu Min was discussing with the man about getting some drugs and selling them in the casino.
It seems he's now following Fatty around. Fatty waived half of his debt, but Yu Min still doesn't know where to get the rest of the money.
After spending a lot of time in casinos and getting used to those who spent money like water, his mindset naturally changed.
There are so many ways to make money quickly in the world. Gambling is one way, so why is drug trafficking another?
In this area, gambling is a minor matter; drug trafficking is a life-threatening business. It brings in money quickly, but you have to be alive to spend it.
The man was unwilling to make this money with Yu Min, but Yu Min wasn't annoyed. He was very eloquent, and it was only a matter of time before he could persuade the man.
Yi Mu suspected Lou Xijue had misheard. "Drug trafficking? Does he have that kind of guts?"
Lou Xijue reached out and plucked the grass from his hair. "You don't know, people who have always lived inside the walls are used to the darkness. Once they see the light, they won't easily go back to the dark walls."
Why is it that these uncultured people can wear gold and silver and drive luxury cars, while I, a student from a prestigious university, can only be threatened by them?
One day, I will also become powerful and influential, and trample them under my feet.
Yu Min simply has this kind of mentality.
The two scouted the spot and returned to the lakeside.
Lou Xijue's friends were very good at fishing; they had only been gone for a little over an hour, and their buckets were almost full of fish.
As evening fell, a light rain began to fall. The group went to a nearby farmhouse restaurant, handed over the fish and various wild vegetables to the owner, and asked them to prepare a meal for them.
Yi Mu had something on his mind and spent the whole night thinking about whether He Lele's death was related to Yu Min.
The two disappeared from school at almost the same time. Yu Min went into gambling, while He Lele frequented triads. The police said that He Lele regularly transferred money to an account.
Whose account is that? Yu Min's, or He Lele's?
Was she forced to be with those people?
On the way back to the city, Lou Xijue noticed that Yi Mu had a furrowed brow and felt a little uneasy.
Could it be that Yi Mu can't forget He Lele, and will reserve the place of his heart's desire for her from now on?
