They are Chasing Me! - Chapter 109
Yu Ping frowned.
Tao Suan hugged the little milk cat and looked closely at the note in his hand, lowered his eyes and said cleanly: “My lamb…”
This voice came to Zongnan’s ears through harvesting wheat.
lamb?
Zongnan looked at Tao Suan in the rain, the boy was as soft as a flower in a greenhouse, he looked so soft and fragile, as if the wind and rain in City A were stronger, it would blow the flower to pieces fall.
Such a child seems to be suitable for someone to find a fertile and beautiful garden to support. Let him be an innocent and pure elf in his own private domain. The lamb stays in the sheepfold, and the sheepfold is the murderer’s private domain, and everything in the private domain is the murderer’s private property.
He regards Tao Su’an as a lamb, and in his eyes, Tao Su’an is a weak, captive animal waiting to be slaughtered, without any ability to resist him.
Zong Nan was disgusted by such arrogance, he took a deep breath, “Lao Liu, call out this piece of surveillance.”
The cat whimpered and crawled into Tao Suan’s arms with its head. It was terrified, and its thin and weak meows contained panic.
Tao Su’an quietly withdrew his eyes from the note, he was subconsciously displeased with this sentence, who is the lamb, he is not the lamb.
But he didn’t express his dislike, but instinctively, showing the same fearful expression as the cat in his arms. Whether it was Yu Ping or Zongnan who was looking at them through the binoculars in the car, they all saw him flinch slightly.
But the boy didn’t say anything, he stepped back silently, stroked the cat’s head softly, and gave another comforting kiss.
The milk cat was soothed by him, gradually stopped trembling, whimpering became quieter, “meow meow meow” twice, stretched out its little pink tongue and licked Tao Suan’s cheek.
The two of them are just like little cuties who report to the group to keep warm and comfort each other. It makes people’s hearts soften when they see it.
Yu Ping put away the note and the cardboard box, and was at a loss as to how to comfort him. Suddenly, a deep voice from the boss came from the earphone, “Crime can never overcome justice.”
Yu Ping quickly learned, “Crime can never defeat justice.” After a pause, “Do you know how to raise a cat?”
Strange, Yu Ping muttered to himself, why did it suddenly involve cats? Shouldn’t the boss say a few more words of encouragement?
Tao Suan was holding the cat’s hind legs worriedly, and shook his head when he heard the words, “Its leg seems to be injured, and it can’t be straightened. Brother, can you see its wound?”
Yu Ping took a closer look. He had never raised a cat before, so he speculated, “Maybe the leg is broken. It looks a little bad from this angle.”
After he finished speaking, he thought too much for a moment. The murderer gave Tao Suan a milk cat with a broken leg. Does it mean that if Tao Suan is disobedient, he will also break Tao Suan’s leg?
Yu Ping’s expression became serious, while Tao Su’an lowered his head and carefully touched the cat’s back, not daring to touch its injured leg, his sadness was palpable in words. The milk cat snored after being touched, purring and coquettishly rubbing its ears against Su An’s palm.
“Don’t be afraid.” Su An liked this little milk cat very much, and immediately named it, “I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”
“The nearest pet hospital is at the intersection of Huazhong Road,” Zongnan said casually, “Tell him, I know how to raise cats.”
Yu Ping didn’t react, and subconsciously repeated “I know how to raise cats”.
Zongnan: “…” He rubbed his eyebrows.
After Yu Ping finished speaking, he made a bitter face, wishing to turn back time and go back to before he uttered the last sentence.
However, there is no medicine for regret in the world, and there is no reflux device. Yu Ping watched Tao Suan’s eyes light up suddenly, and hugged Yu Ping excitedly and adoringly, “Brother, you are so amazing.”
The faint fragrance of the boy’s clothes after being sunbaked by the sun came from his slender and tall body, which was only half a head shorter than Yu Ping. Lowering his voice, “Yu Ping, why don’t you hurry up and take him back?! The murderer is probably watching you, the little comrade has cooperated with you so much, why are you still standing there!”
Yu Ping was shocked, and quickly hugged him back, “What’s my name? Compared with powerful people, I can’t be ranked high.”
Su An smiled, and then said anxiously: “Brother, shall we go to the hospital now?”
Yu Ping nodded, and hurriedly led him into the car.
A car followed, and Zong Nan hadn’t moved yet. He couldn’t tell what it was like, but he felt a little uncomfortable. The sixth child urged him to drive, Zong Nan slowly let go of his clenched fists, stepped on the gas pedal to follow, the sixth child jokingly said: “Boss, if you are the one doing this task, you will be the one the little classmate is hugging. “
Zong Nan frowned, his discomfort turned into a deeper level of depression, he took out a mint candy from the glove box and threw it into his mouth, the refreshing cold feeling went straight to his brain.
“The monitoring was removed on that street just now, and the store staff around are also going to check.” Zong Nan put away his displeasure, his thin lips were cold, and he gave the order neatly, “Cleaning staff, check all the fingerprints on the carton… once.”
Old Six nodded, “Understood.”
Yu Ping took Tao Su’an to send the milk cat to the pet hospital, and the final examination result was that a hind leg was broken. They put the milk cat in the hospital to recuperate, and Yu Ping sent Tao Su’an home.
Tao Suan pushed open the door, “Brother, do you want to come in and rest for a while?”
Yu Ping ran dry, and was about to say hello when he heard the boss say in a deep voice: “Come back, you still have tasks to do.”
The displeasure in the boss’s tone made Yu Ping tremble, “No, Su An, I still have something to do, so I’m leaving first. Close the doors and windows, and be careful.”
Tao Suan nodded lightly, “I see,” smiling like a flower, “Goodbye, brother.”
Outside the surveillance video, Zong Nan looked at Tao Su’an’s smile and took a sip of water. His brain consciously began to compare the difference between Tao Suan’s “goodbye, brother” and this sentence. In terms of feelings, the “goodbye, brother” that Shi Shi said to him was not as good as what he said to Yu Ping.
He came to a conclusion, and felt funny the next moment, such a behavior like a primary school student would appear on him?
But he couldn’t smile, Zong Nan insisted on pulling the corners of his lips, and looked up to see who was the man with a superficial smile in the rearview mirror.
Tao Su’an closed the door, turned on the TV and played soft music, and took a shower with her clothes in her arms.
Ten minutes later, he emerged with dripping brown curls. The curly hair reaches the shoulders, and when it is wet, it is like a stretchy silk.
He put a blue towel over his shoulders to soak up the water, took the shower and busily watered the flowers and plants in the house and on the balcony, loosened the soil, and applied a thin layer of fertilizer to several of the pots. When Tao Suan did these things, he used all his seriousness and all his kindness, and his intention of “grow up healthily and grow up quickly” was not mixed with any falsehood.
In such a dry and muddy world, he lived happily in his own small world. Zongnan sometimes wonders why he is so happy, but when he thinks about it, what reason does he need to be happy?
After watering the flowers and cutting the grass, Tao Suan sat on the sofa in a daze for a while. The towel had already absorbed the water stains on his hair, Tao Su’an lowered his eyes, turned his head slightly, and looked towards the balcony outside the living room.
Instinct pulled him again, and Tao Su’an walked to the balcony with a pure expression, looking down at the garden in the dark.
He knew that the murderer was watching him, Tao Su’an thought, maybe I can do something that will attract the murderer more, make the murderer’s desire for him deepen, and make the murderer no longer calm down and speed up the process to show his flaws.
He also knew that the more he showed his beauty and fragility unintentionally, the more the murderer wanted to have him as his own.
When thinking about these things, his expression was still beautiful and clean, without any evil thoughts, as if he was thinking “this potted flower should be watered less”, and he made this decision normally.
Tao Suan took off his shoes and walked to the edge of the balcony. He leaned against the black iron railing and looked up at the night sky.
The sea breeze with a slightly fishy smell blew his curly hair, the smell of damp shampoo mixed with the fragrance of flowers, a few strands of hair were dry, scattered messily from behind the ears in front of the ears.
Tao Suan carefully admired the night scene, the lights behind him were bright, he was like an angel born in the darkness under the light.
In fact, you can’t see the stars at night in City A. The city’s light pollution makes the night sky look like a gray filter, but fortunately, there is still a faint moon to appreciate. The light that embellishes the soul.
The bell in the house rang suddenly, like a “didi” alarm. Tao Suan returned to the room in doubt, and took out a headset with a red light from the cabinet.
It was the contact earphone that the police had left for him, just in case of unforeseen use.
Tao Su’an put it on his ear and said softly, “Who is it?”
The male voice in the headset was stern, “Put on your shoes and coat now, and come to the balcony.”
His voice is very distinctive. In the past, when he talked with Tao Suan, he would coax Tao Suan with a smile like a child. The subwoofer has the most charming sound quality that a girl can imagine. But this time, his tone was crisp and serious.
Tao Su’an had never seen such a person before, how could he gently remind him to wear shoes and a coat, and at the same time use a commanding tone that was too domineering to be vetoed?
It seemed that he was very worried about him, but he didn’t use the condescending voice like those who tried to get close to Tao Suan. Those people were afraid that if they treated Tao Suan loudly, they would frighten this angel and disturb his bright smile. A puppet or a fool who only knows how to smile, not like Zong Nan, with a slightly angry and stern tone, just to let him put on his shoes and clothes, never thought that his tone would make him do good deeds and be blamed.
Like a nice guy.
Tao Suan tilted his head and said curiously, “Brother, but I’m not cold.”
Zongnan couldn’t help saying, “Put it on.”
Tao Suan squatted in front of the cabinet for a while, went back to the bedroom, found a coat and put it on, and then put on the sandals that were taken off in front of the balcony. He walked cautiously to the edge of the balcony and glanced downstairs several times in the dark.
The earphones rang again, and the man’s tone was much better this time, with a slight smile, “Who are you looking for?”
Tao Suan whispered, “I’m looking for you.”
Zongnan: “Huh?”
Tao Su’an said: “Brother, don’t you sleep at night?”
“You reminded me,” Zongnan said, “it’s time for you to sleep now.”
It was only after ten o’clock, Tao Su’an was silent for a while, and said softly: “But I don’t want to sleep yet.”
Zong Nan said: “The children should be asleep.”
Tao Suan looked at the opposite apartment with a few lights on, stood there and thought for a while, or maybe he didn’t think about anything, just stared blankly for a while, he turned off the light on the balcony, and walked slowly to the bedroom.
Zong Nan said: “Good night.” He hung up the communication.
Tao Suan hugged the quilt in the room without the light on, thinking, this person is really strange.
Such straightforward kindness and arbitrary control are new and unfamiliar to Tao Suan. He slowly closed his eyes, thinking, is this person treating him well in order to gain something? But if it is to obtain something, why is it so compulsory?
They helped him to catch the murderer, but ordering him like this so that he would not blow the cold wind or walk barefoot would not help in catching the murderer.
Tao Su’an became curious about Zongnan in his empty heart.
Will this person be a pure, truly good person?
