Colorful neon lights illuminate the entire neighborhood. Lu Zeyu was sitting on a bench on the street, sipping a can of beer, completely drunk.
In the haze, he felt that someone was watching him in the dark. Pedestrians coming and going would glance at him from time to time and then leave in a hurry.
After coming out of the village, he liked to go to crowded places and watch the bustling city. At this moment, Lu Zeyu was curious about what was in the package in his arms.
Touching the shape in the package, well, it should be Wei Xiaxia's music box, a pile of soft paper, and a piece of harder paper.
Opening the package, an old music box was placed at the top. Although it was a little worn, it was obvious that the owner must have taken good care of it and wiped it very clean.
A stack of crumpled banknotes were pressed on top of the music box, with different denominations. They were neatly stroked. At the bottom were the few red notes that Lu Zeyu gave to Wei Guo that night.
At the bottom is a letter with a sentence written on the envelope.
"You kid, don't even think about peeking!"
The signature was Wang Hui. Lu Zeyu stroked the uneven writing on the envelope. Lu Zeyu's curiosity gnawed at Lu Ze's heart, and finally he closed the package again.
"If you can't get out, I'll listen to you for a while this time."
In the distance, a plainly dressed girl stood behind the dining car, stirring the food in her hands.
The cool beer dripped into his mouth, and Lu Zeyu realized that the can was empty.
Squeezing the can in his hand, putting the package in his backpack into his backpack, Lu Zeyu walked towards the dining car in front.
"Boss Wei, please have some fried rice."
Hearing this voice, the girl was slightly stunned.
"Brother Yu, you are back!"
"I finally came back. When will Boss Wei give me, the brother next door, fried rice? I'm so hungry."
Wei Xiaxia wiped the sweat dripping from her face, pulled up Lu Zeyu who was lying on the dining car table, and said viciously:
"If you want to eat, just fry it for me. I'm still busy here."
As if to confirm Wei Xiaxia's words, the guest behind him urged:
"Hurry up, when will the boss be ready? I'm still hungry."
Faced with the urging of the guests, Wei Xiaxia began to work hard, while Lu Zeyu was working on it.
"oh."
As time went by, the flow of people began to increase. According to this situation, it would be difficult for Wei Xiaxia to keep herself busy.
Lu Zeyu couldn't help but asked in confusion:
"Where's Aunt Xia? Why isn't he here today?"
Wei Xiaxia seemed to have thought of something and said with a depressed expression:
"Today is the anniversary of my father's death. My mother won't come out at home today. It's me who wants to come out."
Wei Xiaxia showed a strong smile on her face, and then continued to work hard.
Lu Zeyu didn't expect to get this answer and apologized quickly:
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to be my uncle's today."
"It's okay, not to mention you don't know about it."
The two fell into silence, and a discordant voice broke the silence.
"Hey, isn't this Wei Xiaxia? Why are you here!"
A group of young men and women with colorful hair walked towards the dining car. Wei Xiaxia couldn't help but lowered her head and cursed secretly:
"It's really unlucky to meet them here."
The leader Huang Mao looked at Wei Xiaxia with greed in his eyes.
"Here are ten portions of fried rice to cheer up the class girls."
Wei Xiaxia lowered her head and remained silent, holding the shovel tightly with her hand. Lu Zeyu glanced at Wei Xiaxia and then at the group of young men and women in front of him.
Tentacles extended from behind, and strange red lines slowly flew out of the tentacles.
Hovering around the boys and girls, no one realized that danger was about to come to them.
The student who kept his head down seemed to notice something and looked up at Lu Zeyu in horror.
His face was covered with bruises and his school uniform was stained with mud.
Huang Mao glanced at him and said in a bad tone:
"Here, He Feng, take the money."
"Zhao Yuanlong, don't go too far!"
Wei Xiaxia put down the spatula and shouted loudly to the yellow-haired young man.
Zhao Yuanlong said with a playful smile.
"We are all brothers. What's wrong with brothers talking and laughing among themselves? You think so."
He Feng nodded and looked at Lu Zeyu with a horrified expression.
Thin blood-red threads caressed his face, and channel-like tentacles wrapped around their bodies.
"what is that?"
He Feng looked blankly at Lu Zeyu beside Wei Xiaxia and asked.
At this moment, Zhao Yuanlong began to notice Lu Zeyu approaching Wei Xiaxia.
"Hey, you are my uncle, right? This is the first time I met Wei Xiaxia's boyfriend."
Wei Xiaxia blushed and wanted to argue. Lu Zeyu smiled and raised his hand.
"Why haven't I heard that Xia Xia has a boyfriend? Isn't it because you have unrequited love?"
Facing Lu Zeyu's question, Zhao Yuanlong hesitated and then said carelessly:
"Sooner or later, sooner or later."
Wei Xiaxia raised the spatula and shouted:
"It's impossible. Stop your wishful thinking and get out of here."
Zhao Yuanlong left here with a playful smile, turned around and shouted:
"It's okay, it's all a matter of time."
Crystal tears fell from the corners of Wei Xiaxia's eyes.
"Xia Xia, let me leave for a moment."
"Brother Yu, don't..."
Lu Zeyu disappeared before Wei Xiaxia finished speaking.
The red thread has been integrated into the bodies of these teenagers, and Lu Zeyu can easily locate them.
"Hey, isn't this my uncle? Is he here to see me?"
Zhao Yuanlong looked at Lu Zeyu who was blocking them in front of them, with a strange smile on his face.
Lu Zeyu raised three fingers and said seriously:
"1. I am not brother Wei Xiaxia.
2. Release the young man you tied up.
3. Don’t disturb Wei Xiaxia’s life in the future.
Okay, these are the points, what do you think? "
After hearing Lu Zeyu's words, Zhao Yuanlong's face gradually became distorted.
"Who are you? Why should I listen to you?"
After saying that, Zhao Yuanlong walked towards the road uncontrollably, and the fierce expression on his face turned into panic.
"You! What did you do? Why doesn't my body obey its orders?"
Lu Zeyu ignored his question and just continued to ask:
"Do you agree or not?"
The wind of the speeding vehicle whizzed past Zhao Yuanlong's ears, and the sound of fear came.
"Promise, promise, I promise everything!"
The movement of his feet stopped, Lu Zeyu looked at the boys and girls on the other side and asked:
"Do you have any objections?"
Their stiff bodies could not move, and they all nodded in agreement.
He Feng felt that his body could move and looked at Lu Zeyu in confusion.
"Let's go."
Hearing these words that sounded like sounds from nature, He Feng bowed deeply.
"Thanks."
He ran towards the distance without looking back, and he couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the tentacles appearing in Lu Zeyu's body.
"This kid is interesting. He can see the red line."
Lu Zeyu murmured in his heart.
