The announcer broadcast the fog yellow warning signal in a mechanical cold voice, prompting residents to pay attention to safety Yuan Ran put on a mask, simply dropped the lock, and shut the sound in the house.
In the bedroom lay a woman, about 25 years old, with silky black hair pressed against a pillow. After sleeping too long, she woke up and whispered: Ah Yan, Ah Yan..."
There was a leaflet pressed against the coffee table in the living room, and a line was written on the back of the white flower: Go to the store, the refrigerator has uneaten pepper pork belly chicken, hot for dinner.
Words are like people, flowing and powerful. She found her cell phone under the couch pillow and dialed his phone. No one answers, maybe a car repair.
There is a loft in the car repair shop, and Yuan Ran will go there to talk about things or if he needs to be calm alone. In this small attic, everything was complete, and he poured a cup of tea for the person leaning on the sofa and asked, "Do you have eyebrows?" ”
"Nothing. It's hard to find out. The news came back that the man was hiding in woodpecker, have you heard of that place? The lighter clicked and the smoke was lit.
Yuan Ran kicked him, "Kill me." How many times have you said don't smoke at my place. ”
"Addicted, you adults have a lot, make an exception once." The green pepper is holding a cigarette, and the way the hands are folded is a bit funny. The old smoking gun is most afraid of addiction and can't smoke, and his body is like being bitten by ants.
"Do you want me to do it?" He had a cold face and didn't agree. He didn't touch anything that was addictive.
"Brother, you ghostly look, I don't know what Xiao Ran likes about you?" I'm going to find a brother to go to Woodpecker with. "The green pepper extinguishes the smoke and pours it with tea to let the smell dissipate."
"Don't be poor. Time is running out, the man can't be found again, and I'll never be able to go home. Yuan Ran knew that there was another person in this world, and locked himself up for a few days when he used his name and even shared an identity with him.
The fog was getting thicker and thicker, wet, and the green lotus resting on the windowsill was full of beads of fog. The view was blocked, and none of the buildings outside could see clearly.
Brother, Woodpecker is a place where birds don't. Will it be to lead you over, there was no news before, but now it can be checked, too weird. "Green Pepper's suspicions are reasonable, the enemy is in the shadows, and he doesn't know what the man's purpose is."
"Where's woodpecker?" The place name was so unfamiliar that Yuan Ran was not impressed with all the geographical knowledge he had learned in high school.
Qing Pepper was excited, "In the South City, there is such a place." ”
"I'll take a run. Remember to unify the caliber, and Xiao Ran said that I had something to go to the field. He's so mysterious, I'll see how long he can be mysterious. ”
The man half-lying on the couch sat up and tried to stop him: "Brother, or I will go for you." Now what can't you do..."
"I'm driving, and I'm not driving a long way." Yuan Ran's face was calm, not disturbed by the situation in front of him.
Green Pepper frowned, he had never entered his world since he had known him. This man is both simple and complex.
The fog was also persistent, lasting until the sun rose the next day. Yuan Ran asked for the details and went back to pack his bags.
As soon as the door opened, the smell of food wafted from the kitchen, and the slender figure walked around in front of the gas stove. Liu Ran leaned out halfway: "Back? Ready to eat. ”
Yuan Ran was a little surprised, "Aren't you going to work today?" ”
"I've transferred to the other teachers, so let's talk after dinner." Liu Ran had a flattering smile and wanted to buy some warm time.
"I'm going on a business trip tomorrow to talk to suppliers about accessories. Don't know when to come back, you check the doors and windows at home and then go to sleep. Yuan Ran spoke slowly, and his tone did not fluctuate, sounding gentle.
"You go now?"
"Go with you after eating."
Willow turned back to look at the fire. If you have a full stomach, you can't say a word at the moment. There was nothing she could do about Yuan Ran. Sharing a bed, you will also feel that the person in front of you is foggy, hazy, only let you see the nearest, the rest are blurred.
She admits that what she loves is his mystery. Looking at the blue fire of the gas stove, a vague person appeared in Liu Ran's brain, they were somewhat similar, but their temperament was completely different.
Yuan Ran leaned on the kitchen door, saw her like this, and knocked on the door frame: "Don't think about it, this time the place to go is farther." I'll go pack my bags first, and then we'll have dinner together. ”
After eating, the jeep drove on the dark highway, and Yuan Ran repeated the information in his hand. He didn't find much, he didn't have any connections, he left his hometown to come to the small town, and many things made the green pepper dot.
From the starting point to the woodpecker, more than two thousand kilometers of road. After driving for a few days, Yuan Ran parked his car in Dacang Town and found a tricycle to take him to the village. The wind was a little strong, and he wrapped his hat tightly.
At the entrance of the village, the driver's eldest brother said to him in broken Mandarin: "Here is the woodpecker, they don't know Chinese, it is best to find those who carry cameras, they are here to take pictures." ”
He nodded and took out two red bills, "Thank you big brother, this is your fare." I just looked at it. ”
After the rain, there were many potholes in the gravel road, and Yuan Ran's feet were carefully avoided. Two kilometres out, I haven't seen anyone yet. The sparse houses, far away, didn't look like the countryside at all.
Yuan Ran sighed and scolded himself: "It's stupid, this is not a place for people to stay at all." ”
Another kilometer away, he finally saw a few children, giggling and running, saying things he didn't understand.
"Kids." Although he was not sure that he could communicate normally, he still had to try, "Do you know where Yuan Ran's house is?" ”
Children who are about five or six years old, you look at me, I look at you. The only eldest child, who should be ten years old, has a distinct echo: "Which one are you looking for?" This person does not know. ”
It seems that he used another identity to live here, and after asking unsuccessfully, he waved his hand and said, "Thank you, I will look for it again." ”
After going uphill, he saw several people on tripods to shoot. The scenery high up is beautiful, and after the rain, the clouds are wrapped around the mountainside, layer by layer, piling up into a thick sea of clouds. The sun hung slowly, and golden light sprinkled on the sea of clouds.
"How long have you been here?" Yuan Ran walked over and asked.
The wheat-colored boy replied, "I've been here for a month, and although the conditions are not very good, I will be in a good mood." No one bothers, and the villagers are fine. ”
"I would like to ask, is there any man in this village who speaks Chinese?"
The photographer with a small unicorn tattooed on his wrist interjected: "The man does not have it, but there is a walnut buyer who lives in the village for a little half a month, and the figure is similar to yours." Is he what you're looking for? ”
Yuan Yan nodded vigorously, "Yes, I'm looking for him." Which villager's house did he live in? ”
"If you're not in a hurry, I'll take you when I'm done shooting." But he would often go to the mountains, and he was not necessarily there. It's walnut hunting season, and he'll follow the villagers to hunt pecans. ”
Unlike what he imagined, this person also had fireworks and had no poor communication skills, so how did he get to this point?

Deep in the mountains, the old man and the woman were holding high the pole to beat the walnut, and the green walnut fell, only to see many dark and thin hands quickly picked into the basket.
A man stood calmly in the middle of the mountainside, took the old man's pole, and with a strong wave, the ground was full of walnuts. He smoked a cigarette, but he didn't look like a jerk. Not far away, there was a young boy of junior high school age, who was a local translator he had found.
Choosing this place is not only remote enough, but what is important is that what he did in Okura Town was almost found.
The whole world searched for him, but no one could find him. He was going to take it over for a while, so he came to.
He took off his gloves, brushed away his wind-washed hair, smiled and said to the boy next to him, "Tomorrow I'll go to town, and the walnuts will be finished today. ”
"Uncle Yuan, I know." Xiao Yan turned his head to play with the stones under his feet, and he would also give his mother a handle.
"Yuan Ran" looked at the boy and had an idea in his heart. The car is not difficult to find, as soon as he arrived, he greeted the village chief, put away the walnuts and needed a truck, and asked the village chief to help contact.
"Whisper, do you want to go to town?" His smile had no temperature, and if he turned around, he would find the gloom on his face.
The boy finished picking up the walnuts laid by his mother, hesitated for half a moment, and shook his head. The outside world is like a Pandora's box, and it is very different from the village where it grew up.
There were bustling bazaars, swaggering cars, and a variety of snacks that he wouldn't have seen if he hadn't gone to school.
He was afraid and obsessed. "Yuan Ran" caught the boy's wavering and took out a small Transformer from his trouser pocket, "Want this?" ”
"Think." The sound was as small as a mosquito, and he had seen the classmates bring it, and it seemed to be called Bumblebee. The bumblebee that Xiaoyan knows is a stinger, and in the eyes of others, sci-fi, all he sees are mountain wild creatures.
"Yuan Ran" laughed loudly, and the people who beat the walnuts all stopped to look at him, wondering what happy things this walnut buyer had encountered, and smiled so brightly.
He felt that the ground under his feet had no real feeling, as if he were on a floating cloud. Go to his life! People who rot in the mud are not worthy to talk about life.
He died on a summer evening when he was ten years old, and there were vendors on the streets selling mung bean popsicles. His childhood was carefree, but he was beaten up at the hands of demons.
"Whisper, tomorrow I'll take you to town." Tell them, don't look at me, late walnuts will wait for the next batch, don't delay in earning money. "He knows these people, simple and simple, but people can't live without money.
After the small words were relayed, he turned back and asked, "Uncle Yuan, are you serious?" ”
"I never lie to children."
The sounds that spread over the mountains rose and fell, and the woodpeckers were incomparably familiar with these sounds. Yuan Ran was sitting casually on the stone with several photographers at the moment, looking at the paintings made by nature.
"It's so beautiful..."
"Yeah, it's nice that there's still a place like this."
In the bustling bustle of the lights, we gradually forgot the appearance of nature and went deep into the mountain stream to awaken the sleeping consciousness.
Yuan Ran enjoyed this brief period of comfort, and his brain took advantage of this juncture to polish his eyes, "What does that walnut buyer look like?" ”
People who had seen "Yuan Ran" replied, "How do you say that?" I think he looks a bit like you, but not the same. One of his eyes was broken, pale, as if it were a rotten flower. Usually smiling and squinting, not aggressive. ”
"Not aggressive?" He had killed so many people, but he was so well disguised in front of people.
"Well, it's not gentle and polite, but it's not hostile to anyone."
The sea of clouds dissipated, the topic ended, and the group put away the tripod and left. Yuan Ran followed behind with his duffel bag, waiting for someone to lead the way. It was clear and the sun was shining on the wet leaves, crystal clear.
The mountain walnuts are nearing the end, and green walnuts are filled with baskets. Seeing the good weather, "Yuan Ran's" mood has become much worse.
He hated all that shone brightly, rain and night. Far away, he walked behind the crowd, stroking a handful of grass without a trace, viciously, and the intact eye had the intention of killing.
The mud under his feet, Yuan Ran was still deliberately avoiding, the photographer who tattooed the qilin looked at him so exquisitely, smiled: "This place is like this, the rainy road is not the road, the shoes are dirty and washed." You walk like this, you can't go until dark. ”
After Yuan Ran listened to these words, his brow loosened and he no longer looked at his feet. Wildflowers bloom on both sides, and water droplets use the green leaves as a stage to jump around.
The joy of life did not bring him ease. The door of the wooden house is closed, the cooking smoke rises, and it is the life of ordinary people.
"Knocking" a few times, Yuan Ran knocked on the door of the wooden house: "Is anyone here?" Mr. Yuan, are you inside? ”
The people in the room heard a somewhat familiar, but strange sound, and all the cells woke up.
"Who are you looking for?" The tone was impatient, not as mild as people say. The hot water was boiling and purring.
Confirming that it was the person he was looking for, Yuan Ran spoke again: "I know what you do." ”
The duffel bag was casually thrown down by him, and Yuan Ran approached the photographer and whispered, "You are busy first, I will talk to him slowly." ”
Although the photographer was curious, he did not ask much, and took the photographic equipment and left. There was a noise inside, and it felt like the glass was shattered and the cup had been broken.
"Yuan Ran, are you here to die?" I could tell that the man inside was furious, and he didn't want to open the door.
"I'll see you, open the door." The tone was light, not provoked by him, or said that there was nothing to be angry about.
Yuan Ran returned to the door, leaned against the door, and suddenly calmed down.
"You've seen me, Yuan Ran." The people inside the door also calmed down, and after all the firewood burned, leaving a pile of fiery red carbon.
One mile and one outside, different thoughts. Yuan Ran couldn't remember the connection between them, he didn't even know the person's real name.
"We don't know." He didn't even think about it, and subconsciously replied.
"Thirteen years ago, Flower Lane."
"What's your name?" There are so many people in Huayi Lane, and so many stories have happened.
"Hahahahahaha, you don't even know my name?" Yuan Ran, we are classmates. ”
A classmate who lives in the same alley as him? Yuan Ran searched through his brain, and there were several classmates and he was a neighbor.
In the campus years, Yuan Ran was a good student who followed the rules. Before the appearance of "Yuan Ran", life and work went smoothly.
Seeing that Yuan Ran did not speak, he continued to take care of himself and said, "If you helped me call someone that day, or helped me call a police, I would not have lost an eye." ”
Once upon a time, there were so many people I knew, and so did people who had been entangled like Tengman. Yuan Ran was silent for ten minutes, some fragments flashed in his mind, screaming and crying for a short time, but in his memory he had definitely existed.
"What day are you?" He Ritang, like Yuan Ran, has excellent grades and is deeply loved by teachers. The first and second thrones were contested by the two of them, and unfortunately He Ri Tang had a father who loved to beat people.
Unable to stand her father's fists and feet, her mother fled early. He Ri Tang became another target, he was not as strong as an adult, and he was often beaten to the nose and blue eyes.
That evening, the door was unlocked, and I could see Yuan Ran passing by through the pores. He Ritang shouted for help, only in exchange for a glance from Yuan Ran.
Clear eyes looked through the gap in the door, he thought he could save him from the sea of fire, but Yuan Ran glanced at him casually and walked over.
He Ritang's eyes were broken, his father did not repent, he begged his grandparents to take him away, he did not want to stay in the home full of violence all day.
"You remember?" He Ritang finished drinking the cool water and began to pack his bags, and the plan to go to Okura Town early tomorrow morning would not change.
Yuan Ran took a breath, he Ri Tang's encounter he later heard his mother tell, it was difficult to imagine that kind of pain. But he ignored what he heard and did not reach out to him.

"Why are you pretending to be me to kill someone?" Yuan Ran wanted an answer, and now he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
He Ritang put away his things and said lazily, "Because I am happy." ”
He tried to get out of that violent beating, went to school, worked, but was discriminated against.
Because of those discrimination, He Ritang was completely crazy, and he decided to make people recognize him in another way.
"You use my identity to kill people, can you be happy?"
He Ritang did not kill people for pleasure, but to eliminate harm. Using Yuan Ran's identity is jealousy and revenge.
"Yuan Ran, I just want to ruin you." The charcoal in the stove burned out, and the wooden house was a little cold.
Fog came from afar, and the sunlight from a few hours ago became an illusion. White, little dots drifting with the wind, like the gentle drizzle of spring in the south.
Yuan Ran picked up the duffel bag, and before walking into the clouds, he said through the door, "You've done it." ”
The clouds covered the woodpeckers all over, and the footprints were deep and shallow, and the muddy village road was even more damp.
A quarter of an hour after Yuan Ran left, the door was slowly opened, and a stream of moisture entered the house. He Ri Tang xue touched the pepper leaves in front of the door a few times, and his palms were full of water.
Unable to see what was ahead, he said to the air, "Wait until you catch up with me." ”
The birds squeaked, and the cows raised by the unknown were also "moo-moo", there was no sound of the machine turning, and life was still cheerful.
Photographers love clouds and fog, and when Yuan Ran returns to the place where he first came, he meets those photographers again.
"Do you know where to go to find a place to stay?" After much deliberation, he chose to stay.
"Just ask a fellow villager and give them a little accommodation, but the conditions are not good." The photographer who took him to Find He Ri Tang returned.
"Can I stay with you for the night?" He was going back to Okura tomorrow, and they might have missed some information.
"If you don't mind I'll ask you." Hit the floor, we big men are rough. ”
"Don't mind, tomorrow I'll go back to Okura Town, where to find a car?"
"Don't look for it, just wait." Although there are not many people who come here, we who are engaged in photography will come in. The town's three-wheeled motorcycles will send people, and people who see people going to town will also take them. ”
The next morning, He Ritang took a truck full of walnuts to the town and brought a whisper. He deliberately chose this time to avoid Yuan Ran.
The wooden house was empty, the door was half hidden, Yuan Ran pushed open, and there was no one inside. The tea in the teacup has long since lost its temperature, and it is a state of people walking in the state of tea cooling.
He kicked a wooden stool and said, "Fuck, he's running so fast!" ”
Yuan Ran rarely said foul language, and people like He Ritang couldn't help but say it.
He hurried to the mouth of the village, did not see pedestrians, the time was early, but it was eight o'clock in the morning, and He Ritang left.
The town of Okura was the market day, and the driver delivered the walnuts according to he Ritang's instructions, collected the money and left. Xiao Yan grabbed his hand and asked, "Uncle Yuan, didn't you mean to send me a Transformer?" ”
He Ri tang wondered whether Yuan Ran would have a last resort, and replied perfunctorily: "I will take you there, I will buy you a cake, and you will eat it first." ”
The brim of his hat was pressed low, and he wasn't sure if the surveillance of the places he had passed before had ever photographed him. In places with a cluttered population, it is better to be cautious.
Whisper lost his temper, he was beaten up by his mother yesterday for this promise, today he did not go to help beat walnuts, had to come to town.
"I don't want to eat bread, I want Transformers." Uncle Yuan, you said you bought it for me. If you lie to me, I won't translate it for you in the future. ”
He Ritang ran out of patience, took the man to the car he had stolen earlier, took a rope from the trunk, tied the whisper, and sealed his mouth with tape, "Toast not to drink the penalty wine." Transformers, you don't want it, just stay like this. His keen intuition told him that the game had really begun.
Yuan Ran was lucky, and as soon as he walked to the entrance of the village, he saw the people under the three-wheeled motorcycle and asked, "How much is it to go to town?" ”
The driver turned the front of the car and asked in non-standard Mandarin: "Two hundred, can't you go?" ”
He straddled up with long legs and put away his luggage, "Go, trouble hurry up, I have an urgent matter." ”
The market is bustling and doing good things, and He Ritang quickly turns into an alley, and there are holes in the dark environment.
"Big Bear, wake up and open the door." He didn't knock on the door, only let the sound come in.
The iron door opened, and the fat man held the head of the chicken nest and yawned: "Brother, what is the matter with you coming so early?" ”
He Ri Tang knocked his head hard, "I'm leaving, your mouth is tighter for me." ”
Big Bear chuckled and had an ominous premonition, "Brother, didn't you take mine with you?" ”
He Ritang crossed him, opened the drawer and took a few thick piles of cash, "I left you money, you find a job and live well." Someone found me, taking you with me inconvenience. ”
Human nature cannot be explained, and He Ritang is a murderer in the eyes of the police. And here in Big Bear, he is the savior.
"I won't get in your way, I can do things for you."
"Big Bear, you have to rely on yourself, no one can help you for a lifetime."
"Sugar gourd, sell sugar gourd..." Ichijing is also a place to comfort him, but unfortunately he can't look at it more.
Yuan Ran paid for it, found his car, threw things in the back seat, and dialed the phone: "Qing Pepper, help me make a call back to Yun City, contact the police station to check He Ri Tang." ”
He didn't have time to say too many details, so he had to let people look it up first.
There was the first victim in Yun City, and the police took him away at that moment, and he was still working in the company.
After hanging up the phone, he walked into the market, and the crowd surged and Yuan Ran searched for the figure of He Ritang. He Ri Tang should have covered up the defects in the eyes, and the reason why the woodpecker did not disguise the eyes was because those people were not a threat.
He Ri Tang did put on the beautiful pupils, and both eyes became intact. His deep self-esteem does not allow him to expose his flaws.
He had also changed his clothes, and the one he had worn from woodpecker was placed at Big Bear's place and instructed him to put them in the washing machine and wash them.
There was some blood on it, and Whisper bit it out with his teeth. This child had a big temper and a lot of strength, and it took him a lot of effort to subdue people.
When He Ritang walked out of the alley at the end of the market, Yuan Ran walked to a small stall to buy a burnt cake, and when he looked up, he saw the person he was looking for.
Of course, He Ritang also saw Yuan Ran, and he quickly turned into another alley. The car is parked next to the market, where there is a shortcut.
His skill is to grasp the geographical space, and once he walks through it, he can remember it all. Yuan Ran thought that if he could use these abilities for serious things, he would definitely make a difference.
The second-hand Wuling next to the market was shaking violently. Whisper was tied up a little longer, sat up with difficulty, and slammed his body against the car door.
There were more and more people watching, and some people saw the tied whispers through the car window and said in dialect: "Do evil, there is a child in the car, tied up by five flowers, quickly call someone to open the lock, don't be bored." ”
The wisdom of children is sometimes unclear, and the chips of He Ritang are so put on the surface. The patrol officer saw the movement on this side and came over to understand the situation.
The body shook non-stop, and was added to the oil and vinegar to say something, and the patrol police found a fire to unlock the lock. Xiao Yan was saved, crying and saying, "Uncle Yuan is a bad person, he lied to me and tied me up." ”
When He Ritang arrived, Xiao Yan cried very loudly. He whispered, "These policemen don't come early or late, that's when they are here." This stinky fart kid has two brushes. ”

When Yuan Ran returned to the parking lot, he saw a child surrounded by people, and the patrol police asked him on the side.
"His name is Yuan Ran, and he came to our village to buy walnuts. Today he brought walnuts to town, and he said he bought me a Transformer, and he tied me up before he could buy them. ”
Xiao Yan is not a child who does not understand anything, he is studying in the town, he knows that when he encounters things, he must be clear at the first time, and others can help him.
The patrol officer had heard the name, he had killed a man in the town, and the criminal investigation could not find a clue, and is still investigating.
Yuan Ran listened without missing a word, walked over and said, "I am Yuan Ran, and the person this child is talking about is called He Ri Tang." I was still chasing him, but he was familiar with the place and was soon gone. If it is convenient, please help to find it, he is definitely still here. ”
He Ritang, who was eating noodles in the noodle restaurant, had his ears up and he was paying attention to the conversation around him: "I came from the other side of the market, and there was a child who was tied up in a car and cried so pitifully. It is said that he was deceived by Yuan Ran, and before that, either a person in our town was killed, it may have been done by him. There is no clue on the police side, that person evaporates like a human being, and after killing someone, it disappears. ”
People are always curious about the unknown, even if they are murderers, they have to speak mysteriously. He Ri Tang grinned and laughed at the stupidity of these people. Yuan Ran was also stupid, and no one could catch up with him. The game is getting more and more fun.
At that moment, he changed his mind and took out his mobile phone to call Big Bear, "Big Bear, you help me go to the market to see the situation." Also, get another car and you and I will go together. ”
"Brother, are you serious?"
"Well, hurry up. Don't grind and rub, wait until they find someone to come, it is difficult to fly with wings. "He managed to escape each time because he chose people at the bottom who had emotional disorders and was familiar with the police process."
No matter how developed science and technology is, it is not as good as people's hearts. Many times the victim's family is unwilling to pursue, and even steals pleasure, so what is wrong with him?
Clean up the dregs as soon as possible, don't stay in the world and harm people. What do people who are abusive, alcoholics, idle, and not responsible for their families but build a family stay and do?
He wants to build his own rules, not live under the rules of others. Yuan Ran did not understand his psychology, so he could not get close to him and could not find him.
The search required layers of approval, and Yuan Ran walked around, no different from ants on a hot pot. When he was in a hurry, Qing Pepper called, "Brother, He Ri Tang's information has been found, can this be a correct name for you?" Xiao Ran asked when you would come back. ”
When Qing Pepper mentioned it, Yuan Ran knew that he couldn't wait. He Ritang had not returned to Yun City for a long time, and he couldn't remember that there was such a number one person.
"I see. He Ritang's information was sent to me, and I also showed it to the police station in Okura Town. Did you tell Yun City where he was? ”
"Said. Their system information has not been synchronized, brother, if Tang Ri tang catches it, you have to invite me to drink. Qing Pepper watched how he survived, and when his identity was occupied, Yuan Ran couldn't even get out of the door, because others would point fingers at him.
"Definitely. I think there are still people here to pick him up, you have other ways, help me check it out. He's going to be like this, there must be some incentive. Is there a situation with the people in his family? ”
"His mother died two years ago. His mother returned after graduating from Ho Ri Tang University, and the family of three lived together. Their lives were still very poor, their parents often quarreled and fought, her mother was pushed down during the quarrel, her head hit the floor tiles, and she lost too much blood, so she did not save her. ”
Yuan Ran was not familiar with psychology and knew that he wanted to divert his anger. His last goal is definitely still in Cloud City.
"Where is his father now?"
"In a nursing home, I had a stroke last year. The payer is He Ritang's cousin. ”
"How about Xiao Ran?" Yuan Ran asked according to the routine, Liu Ran was the secret he did not tell Qing Pepper. He found Liu Ran that time, she was not in a good mental state, and she had not yet come out of the last relationship.
"She will come to the store every day to sit for a while, commute to work normally, just a little miss you."
"I'll go back when I'm done." Yuan Ran felt that He Ritang had found a countermeasure, and it would not be difficult to leave.
If he left Okura Town, his destination should be Cloud City. If the guess is correct, I will leave tomorrow and rush back.
Big Bear stole a Ford and wasn't afraid to die on the highway. He Ri tang called him up because he wanted someone to take cover.
"Brother Yuan, where are we going?" He Ri Tang used to yuan ran's identity, and did not use his original name in the face of the big bear. He wished he was Yuan Ran and had a happy family.
"Drive to Cloud City, I'm going back to make a settlement." He pressed his tired eyelids and said.
"Oh."
After the search, the police found nothing, and it wasn't long before someone came to the police to say that the car had been stolen. Yuan Ran said, "He's gone. Ask what the license plate number is, and you can stop it on the highway. ”
During the record of the person who lost the car, Yuan Ran contacted the previous case and said directly: "Don't stop it, they are definitely using a fake card." I couldn't chase him before, not only because he stole the car, but also because he knew to change to a fake license. He's so cunning, I know where he's going, just go to the police over there. ”
"Then you go back first, and if necessary, I will ask you to cooperate with the investigation." He had heard this statement many times, and his ears were going to be cocooned.
The information sent to him by Green Pepper, he read it word for word. He Ritang chose him, perhaps a psychological projection.
Calm returned to the town of Okura in the afternoon. Yuan Ran's jeep also drove towards YunShi, marking out the characteristics of the deceased: male, with a history of domestic violence, with children in the family, and children will also be beaten.
He sent a message to his sister, who was a psychologist, and she replied: "No matter how people's psychology is studied, there is no way to dissect it." The death of his mother may have triggered a hidden mechanism in his mind. He targeted those people, in fact, in a rehearsal, all the dead were his father's stand-ins. He transferred his anger to the dead, and when he killed a person, he felt that he was doing harm to the people. ”
Yuan Ran could not understand this feeling, and without the suffering of others, he did not persuade others to be kind. There are so many ways to punish, He Ritang chose the most irrational one. However, it is difficult to stay sane at every moment of life.
"Then why did he choose me?" This problem is a dead knot for him, and it cannot be solved.
"Because he feels like you've seen his most tragic moments, you should feel his pain." Our family is very harmonious, you have a good career, and it is obvious that he wants to be you. But subconsciously, the inferior He Ri Tang did not disappear. To put it simply, he came to hypnotize himself as Yuan Yan, and finally found that he could not do it. So, choose this way to push you into the whirlpool. ”
"There are still such people in this world, Qingqing, I think life is really a joke."
"Brother, it will end." You stick with it a little longer. ”
Yuan Yan grabbed the steering wheel and comforted himself that it was almost over. Contact Qing pepper again and tell him to go to Cloud City and return later.
"Do you want me to go too?" What wouldn't Heri Tang do to you? Green Pepper asked.
He extinguished the fire, was silent for a long time, and replied, "You also go to Yun City and take Xiao Ran with you." ”
He wanted to awaken Liu Ran's deep memories and see what He Ri Tang had done. When I first took her away, in addition to trying to find He Ritang, I had pity in my heart.
He did not have no feelings for Liu Ran at all. People are most sad about these levels: money, feelings, death.
I have to admit that after two years of getting along day and night, letting his sister hypnotize the memories between her and He Ritang, he was moved.
Qing Pepper didn't understand why she had to take Liu Ran, this matter had nothing to do with her, "Why take Xiao Ran?" She doesn't know about you and He Ri Tang. ”
"She knows. Liu Ran was the first subject of He Ritang's attempt to become Yuan Ranlu, and he thought of himself as me, imitating my dress, personality, and demeanor to fall in love with her. It was unclear what was happening between them later, and when I found her, her mental state was not very stable. ”
At work, he inexplicably carried the murder case, and after tracking down, he found that there was a similar person imitating his life
"Brother, you're not kidding, are you?" Green Pepper fell from the chair, in disbelief.
Yuan Ran anticipated his reaction and replied to him seriously: "I tell the truth. Life is like this, people and people, things and things, entangled. When it's over, I'll tell you more about it. ”

The city is foggy and the visibility is extremely low. He Ritang asked Big Bear to park the car in a hotel near the nursing home, hoping to wait for the opportunity.
The air was damp and people became wet. In the fog, the plants absorb the essence and unfold the branches, but the person is in the situation, dazed.
Yuan Ran was extremely tired, did not go back to his parents' house, found a hotel and slept upside down. When the limit will come, no one knows.
When the wind blows away the clouds, the cloud city ushers in a long-lost sunshine. The heavy curtains shook off the dust, and the Tang people were a little anxious.
"Big Bear, these two days I went to the nursing home to help me bring someone out." He asked Big Bear to do it for him, after all, he was not good at showing up.
"Brother Yuan, you don't go?" After a year together, Big Bear can judge the message behind his every sentence.
He Ritang watched the kettle bubbling with heat, the water vapor wetting the walls, a little out of his mind, "What am I going to do?" ”
Big Bear was even more confused, and the person in front of him was suddenly vague and strange. They went all the way to the South City, walked so many roads, strangled many people, and found that they did not know him.
"Who are the people you asked me to bring?"
"Ho Tian."
"Who is He Tian?"
"I'm a man."
He Ri Tang was very depressed, and he felt that his soul was out of the box, so he had to answer questions. He can't go back to Cloud City, Cloud City is a spell, and when he comes back, he will become a person he doesn't know.
If the wound cannot be destroyed, if it cannot be healed, it will accompany it for a lifetime. Big Bear saw such a "Yuan Ran" for the first time, hurriedly poured a cup of water and handed it to him, shook him and said, "Brother Yuan, why aren't you and your father the same surname?" ”
He Ri Tang did not answer, and he walked into a confused illusion. The kettle was broken, and the water was still grunting and boiling.
In the sound of "gollum-grunt", he saw the teenager who had been pushed down on the cold floor, his eyes were frightened, and he kept pleading with the man above: "Please, don't fight... I'm in pain..."
He was crying, bleeding, his head buzzing, his ears ringing heavily. But the fists were hard, the slaps were heavy, and they all landed on his body.
He Ri tang pleaded, dodged at the same time, and tried to push the man away, but in vain. His throat was tight and he couldn't catch his breath, and he thought he was going to die.
"Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan! Frightened by his lost appearance, the bear shouted loudly and swung his hands from side to side in front of him.
The ears made a loud noise, and then the world was silent, and He Ritang could not hear any sound. All he could see was his fists swinging, he could smell the rushing wine, and his hands touched the blood on the floor.
It didn't take long for breathing to turn into shortness. He seemed to have left Huayi Lane and walked into the fog. There was nothing in the white fog, no one, no roads, and the ground under his feet was incomparably damp.
With a "whoosh" sound, the window was blown back by the wind, making a harsh noise. He Ri Tang shook his head and returned to reality.
The silver-gray curtains were half open, and he seemed to have woken up from a sleep, his eyes confused. The kettle was still burning, and no one cared about it.
"Brother Yuan, you almost scared me to death." Big Bear broke out in a cold sweat, "Tomorrow I'll bring you He Tian out." ”
Compared with seeing "Yuan Ran" just now, he was more willing to do more and ask less. Not all questions in this world have answers anyway.
He Ritang regained his senses, got up and unplugged the plug, and the noise disappeared instantly. The wind didn't last, it just passed by.
"Hmm. The car is for you, I am waiting for you in the rotten tail building in the suburbs, the address will be sent to you. He wanted the ending to be a success.
The city center is bustling with people, red and green lights, and everyone is in a hurry. Yuan Ran walked out of the hotel to Starbucks and ordered a glass of American style. Bitterness spread from his teeth to his tongue, and he swallowed without changing his face.
"Green Pepper, have you set off?" Yuan Ran sent a WeChat message to Qing Pepper to ask.
Green Pepper and Willow Ran are at the airport and are preparing to board the plane. "Ready to register, brother, did you see He Ritang in Yun City?"
"No, no rush. Have you found any other ingredients? ”
"Brother, I sent you the address of the nursing home, and the rest will be said in Yun City."
Yuan Ran sat at Starbucks for two hours and went back to the hotel to check out. On a sunny day, the decadence was swept away, and he drove the car fast and steadily.
At 3:30 p.m., he successfully received Green Pepper and Liu Ran. The source is here in Green Pepper, and they have to meet first and then plan what to do next.
Liu Ran wanted his appeasement, and they had lived together for two years, accustomed to having each other by their side. She didn't speak, waiting for Yuan Yan to say something first. Yuan Ran only hugged her and gently stroked her hair. Apologies quickly rose from the soles of his feet to his heart, and he was worried that everything would be revealed, and Liu Ran could not stand it.
No one can withstand two critical hits. You can go to half-life at once. Green Pepper turned around and gave them a brief moment to linger.
Truth and reality are the main thing at the moment, and the wind and snow moon will stay in the future. Yuan Ran was so sober that people couldn't pick a fault, and it was over in a few minutes.
In the car, he didn't talk about He Ri Tang, settled Liu Ran well, and he went to look for Green Pepper. Green peppers are boiling water bubble noodles, the plane meal is difficult to eat, and lunch has not eaten a few bites at all.
"Green pepper, what about He Ri Tang, let's talk about it now." He planned to take them to dinner again in the evening, and there were authentic restaurants in Cloud City that could be found by memory.
The green pepper took apart the flavor, poured hot water into it, and said, "He has accomplices." He Ri Tang fished out a person, even if you saved me like that. However, I did not check the information of the person, probably understood that the person had been on the ship before, and did not know what to do. ”
"Go to the squatting point tomorrow, they should be able to act." He Ri Tang had no time. "He's going to break with the past and start over, and he's going to have to disappear."
He has a strong sense of ceremony, walks around in a circle, goes back to the same place, or chooses to end it by hand. He Ri Tang can call the big bear to do the work, but He Tian is a demon in his heart, a fate, and once he exists, he will suffer for a day.
Liu Ran was not stupid, she could feel that something was about to happen. The chaotic memories played like movies, and the original Yuan Ran was different from the one around him.
Gentle Yuan Ran, tyrannical Yuan Ran, mad Yuan Ran. There are dozens of Yuan Yan in her eyes, which are false and real. For a moment, I couldn't tell what they looked like.
He Ri Tang and Yuan Ran did not have the slightest similarity, and He Ri Tang confused her brain with falsehood. Standing in front of her now was the real Yuan Ran.
It was cold, but she was sweating profusely, afraid of missing important information. There were too many stacked things, and Liu Ran found it difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Yuan Ran returned from the green pepper room and saw Liu Ran sitting on a stool with a sluggish look. He whispered, "Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran." ”
The sound leaked through the gap, and she heard it. Liu Ran brushed away the broken hair in front of his forehead and asked, "Are you Yuan Ran?" ”
The hand that poured the water stopped, and could detect her change. He couldn't bear to take her to his sister, and it was a blessing that a person could erase painful memories.
"I am. Are you uncomfortable? He whispered softly and showed concern for her.
Liu Ran grabbed him, and warmth came from her large hands, and her heart fell back to the flat ground, "It's dark, where are we going to eat?" ”
Yuan Ran took her by the hand and led her out of the room. He was shocked by the effects of space and psychological changes, and before he set out to find He Ritang, he was tired of his living state, and he would have the indifference before the separation.
Go out for a trip and see your heart. When the enmity and resentment between Tang and him were over, Yuan Ran wanted to live a good life with her.
The cold wind whistled, and when they put on thick clothes and went out, He Ritang also went out to forage for food.
"Big Bear, take you to try the best noodle restaurant in Cloud City today, and take you down tomorrow night." Small noodle shops are crowded with people, and there are all kinds of people in the city, who don't pay attention to the behavior of strangers.
Big Bear is not a picky eater, he has suffered and has low food requirements. He ordered a bowl of beef noodles and added a cold dish.
The stomach is full and life is beautiful. Human life is actually extremely simple, and materialistic desires run rampant, which complicates the world.
"Brother, can you tell me your plan?" Big Bear didn't hold back, there were too many weird things about this action.
He hadn't gotten a secret from a man, they had a lifelong friendship, and they still couldn't share it.
"You don't have to do it, just bring someone to me." I have a grudge with him, you don't need to know. He will henceforth be a non-existent and irrelevant person. ”
He Tian's imprint on him was so deep that fear accompanied him to this day. Big Bear ate the handmade noodles bite by bite, not ignoring the change in his look.
"Hmm." Everyone will retain in the deepest recesses of his heart the weakness of not giving others a prying eye, and Big Bear can understand it, just as he did not say everything he had done.
The night is long, the dirtiness of the world, the wandering of the world, all can be hidden in the darkness that no one reaches. Where the light is not shining, something is rotting.
The factors of He Ritang's brain jumped extremely fast, flowing madly in the bloodstream. In the time of a bowl of noodles, he found himself outside of Yun City.
End
No matter how many pessimistic clutches there are in the world, the sun rises as usual. On weekends, the nursing home welcomed many children who visited their parents, smiling, in stark contrast to He Ritang, who was sitting in the car waiting.
He came to see where He Tian had lived for a few years. This person who can't be a good husband and a bad father, the uncle's family is still willing to support him. Blood is a shackle that binds countless people.
Yuan Yan and Qing Pepper were at the door of the nursing home, watching people coming and going, and never waited for the Day Tang. But they have a picture of What Day, as long as they see He Tian appear, they can find He Ri Tang.
Big Bear pushed He Tian out of the sanatorium and reached out to stop a taxi. After He Tian's stroke, he suffered from old age dementia and was not very conscious.
The boundaries of suburban communication are lush and there are no high-rise buildings. Qing Pepper drove behind, and Yuan Ran looked ahead, thoughtful.
Yuan Ran, Liu Ran, He Ritang, these three people are the lead of the bomb, when not lit, the heart is terrified, but it will not explode.
The suburban buildings are overgrown with weeds, the gutters stink, and flies fly around, chewing rotten objects.
The taxi stopped, and the driver scolded twice: "I knew not to take this order, this is not a place where people can come, you are really crazy." ”
Big Bear shrugged, put away his wheelchair, and moved He Tian up. The mask is pulled on the face to block some of the odor. He is a brother who rides in the same boat and shares things.
He Ritang lit a good cigarette and stood straight, the smoke lingering. When He Tian saw him, he couldn't recognize who he was, but his mouth moved and there was no sound. The man's hair was half gray, his hands were trembling, and the man who was once strong became the ant he trampled to death.
He Tian received retribution, and in his opinion it was far from enough. Yuan Ran and Qing Pepper took Liu Ran into the Rotten Tail Building, and the cold wind that poured in blew it straight in.
"There's something fucking wrong with me, there's no one to even choose a place." The green pepper covered his nose and suppressed the discomfort caused by pantothenic acid in his stomach.
"Who kills people blatantly?" Yuan Ran's mood was stable, and He Ritang's intentions were not difficult to guess, after meeting him, many things had answers.
Liu Ran didn't speak all the way, she seemed to have woken up, and she seemed to be still asleep. Yuan Ran brought her here to get them all out of the strange circle.
"Old man, don't meet my mother in the next life, you don't deserve it." Big Bear took the people and left, and almost ran into Yuan Yan. The building was empty on all sides, so they went up a staircase and staggered it.
All the way up, I heard only a babbling cry, low and silent. He Tian's eyes widened widely, the needle hole pierced through his arm, and the transparent liquid would soon mix into the blood and take his life.
He Ri tang rehearsed countless scenes of killing him, and finally chose a gentle way. When the god of death came, He Tian's hand was hanging down weakly, his squirming mouth was completely open, his eyes were in the shape of dead fish eyes, and he didn't breathe at all.
The big stone rolled down from the hillside, and He Ritang felt a little relaxed. He counted the time: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6..." Second by second, as if completing a ritual.
Yuan Ran followed the sound to find someone, and it was too late. Regret is useless, He Ri Tang's reason has disappeared for a long time, "He Ri Tang, you have succeeded. ”
He was about to kill He Tian, and when he saw the breathless man, Yuan Yan suddenly felt sad. There are many moments in life that I can't catch up with my efforts.
He Ri Tang turned around and saw Liu Ran, "Xiao Ran! Somehow, there was excitement in the words.
"Yuan Ran, what did you bring Xiao Ran for?" Yuan Ran's intentions were hard to guess, he hid deeper than He Ritang had imagined.
"She's my girlfriend."
"She's my ex-girlfriend."
He Ri Tang wanted to see through him, only to find that he couldn't see anything. When in the shadows, he can use this identity to frame Yuan Ran and let his beautiful life slowly rot.
Yuan Ran looked into his heart and peeled him off: "When you talked to her, it was Yuan Ran. I am now in love with her, and it is also Yuan Ran. I know you want to be me, want a happy family, want decent, want to be respected. ”
"No, I am He Ri Tang, he Ri Tang who is doing harm to the people!" Those who deserve to die, who are irresponsible to their families, do not deserve to live in this world. ”
"That's not your reason for killing. Even if you use my identity to do bad things, I am still innocent except for public opinion, except for being brought by the police to assist in the investigation again and again. You are desperately trying to escape from your father's world, why did you go down this road? Yuan Ran felt sorry for him, and with his ability, he could break out of the sky by going away.
"You think I haven't tried?" But is it useful? Everyone looked at me with colored eyes, laughed at me for being a one-eyed monster, and there were people at work who tripped me up. People like you who are smooth sailing will not understand how people in our quagmire live. He Ri tang's eyes were red, anger was at the critical point, and he was about to rush out of his heart.
Yuan Ran felt that there was no need to continue, there were thousands of unfortunate people, some people had resentment, and some people were reborn.
He took Liu Ran behind him and said coldly, "Originally, I thought I was going to tangle with you for a long time, because your expansion led to the early end of everything." In Okura Town, you are too high-profile, there is no airtight wall. Those lives in your hands will always be returned. ”
The anger in He Ri Tang's body burst into flames, and he rushed towards Yuan Ran, holding a knife in his hand and stabbing straight forward.
Rushing out a few steps, Liu Ran felt a lock in his pocket and threw it out forcefully, hitting He Ritang's forehead. He Ri Tang ate pain, stopped, and his face was full of surprise.
"You're not Yuan Ran, you lied to me." She spoke calmly, but she could feel the anger. The lock was a couple lock, which she had found in her suitcase before returning to Cloud City.
She and the fake Yuan Ran had also done romantic things, and when she woke up, Liu Ran's mood did not fluctuate as she imagined.
Yuan Ran pulled her away, "He Ri Tang, don't struggle. I chased back to Yun City from Okura Town and brought Xiao Ran with me, but just to let you see, you have also become a person like He Tian. You have a choice, but you give up. I called the police before I came up, and the police will arrive soon, and you are deliberately murdered, and the human and physical evidence is all there. ”
Suburbs and urban areas are two kinds of weather, and the wind can't blow away the thick fog. The fog in someone's heart is getting heavier and heavier, the clouds are accumulating, and I don't know if there will be rain.
The alarm roar broke through the sky, and He Ritang threw away the knife in his hand, lost his strength, and half-crouched: "It turns out that no one can become anyone." Yuan Ran, this game, I lost. ”
Yuan Ran kicked the knife on the ground and the couple lock away: "If a person takes a wrong step, he is a wrong step." ”
You think it's a struggle, it's justice, and you end up falling into a deep well that you can't climb up. Everyone has a demon in their heart, and it probes and then acts recklessly to lead you into the abyss.
The sharp footsteps sounded rhythmically, and the man who slipped to the ground and his clothes were covered with dust muttered with a decadent face: "The clouds have not dispersed yet." ”
With his back to him, the sky was half clear, but he couldn't see it. Because his heart was completely shrouded in clouds. (Original title: "Clouds")
