Chapter 165 (1/2)
(PS: it's not easy to buy a house these days. A good friend of many years has finally got his own nest. Last night, jiu'er went to celebrate. Because of the code word, alcohol has not been touched for a long time. Several bottles of beer soon passed out. I didn't feel any better today, but I had some tumbling in my stomach, so I drank some milk to nourish my stomach, I run to the bathroom from noon. I don't know whether it's the beer or the milk. Well, I'd better give up both milk and beer. There's only one watch today, and I'll make it up for you tomorrow.)
It's hard to think about Xia Fei's age. Xia Fei infers that he once met a hermit who retired because of his age in the wilderness star region. He told Xia Fei about his youth.
Although the three brothers of Ling family are skeptical, they can't ask questions. After all, they don't know about the wild star field.
Xia Fei thought for a moment, but still told Thuram the news of Ling Feng's injury. The three brothers of Ling family said that they were his own people. If something like this happened, he should inform Thuram to show his respect.
Thuram didn't say anything. In addition to giving Ling Feng a few days off, he also transferred a speed ability named ferie to replace Ling Feng's work, and told Xia Fei that if he needed more people, he could contact him at any time, and the occult killer appeared again, which obviously attracted more attention of Thuram.
It is late at night to see off the Ling brothers. Lingxiao and others continue to monitor Bati in an all-round way. There is still a lot of work to be done before everything is clear. It is not enough to speculate. What Xia Fei needs now is evidence.
In the still bright moonlight, Xia Fei returned to the hospital owned by the Jane family. As soon as he got to the gate, he saw an old figure standing upright under a locust tree beside the road.
Xia Fei smiles and walks over, ”are you waiting for me?”
Panghai nodded silently and pointed to the front. Xia Fei and Pang Hai walked side by side. In the early morning, the road was empty and no one was there. The light was dim. When the breeze blew, it was a little cool and swish, and the yellow leaves were flying.
Neither of them spoke, so they walked forward in silence. Turning around the corner, there was a stall selling supper. It seemed that the business of this stall was very poor. There was not even a guest. Pang Hai ordered several strings of roast fish and ordered two bowls of porridge.
Xia Fei was hungry for most of the night. After eating five bowls of porridge and seven grilled fish, Xia Fei lit a cigarette and smoked a few mouthfuls, waiting for Pang hai to get to the point. There is no doubt that the housekeeper of Jane's family would not simply invite himself to eat two bowls of porridge.
Panghai ate very slowly, which was quite different from Xia Fei's wolfing. He took a little bit of metal spoon into his mouth, and then chewed it carefully. His appearance was not like eating porridge, but like tasting some delicacies.
”Barty ate well when he was young, but he always added citrus sugar and meat floss to his porridge. It's not like you. You're never picky.” Pang Hai carefully wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue.
Xia Fei skimmed his lips. ”I'm poor, so I don't have the right to be picky. It's good to have a full stomach. Besides, I don't have anything in common with Barty.”
Pang Hai talks about Bati as soon as he comes up, which startles Xia Fei, but he doesn't show it. As for Pang Hai's comparison with Barty, who is twisted in character, Xia Fei can't agree with anything, so he refutes it quietly.
Pang Hai stood up and Xia Fei walked on along the road and did not return to the hospital.
”Barty was a good boy when he was young, and I saw him grow up, which is very clear.” Said Pang Hai.
”Maybe, I have no interest in the past. The most important thing for me is that there is still a future.” Xia Fei figured out some flavor from Pang Hai's words, so he showed his attitude to Pang Hai in a tactful way, ”Avril is a good girl, there is no reason to let her be hurt, no matter who I find out in the end, the ending is the same.”
Pang Hai sighed, ”do you know about Zhou Yuqing?”
Xia Fei gently nodded, ”yes, I do know. No wonder you didn't show up for several days. It seems that you are not idle.”
”What are you going to do?”
Xia Fei laughed. ”It doesn't depend on me. You should ask Barty what he wants to do.”
Panghai looked at Xia Fei with turbid eyes. ”It's not Barty who did it.”
Xia Fei suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: ”since the words have already been said, we may as well speak more clearly. There is no need to go around in circles.”
”Is it your man who appears by the black water lake tonight?”
”Some are, some are not. How do you know?”
”It's my duty to protect every member of the family. You have your people, and I have my own. It's a pity that my housekeeper has not done a good job.”
Pang Hai's words with some self mockery, it is obvious that he is quite guilty of Avril's nearly kidnapping.
Xia Fei lights a cigarette and doesn't speak. She listens quietly.”Twenty seven years ago, Barty learned to look for flowers and willows with some friends. Once he met Zhou Yuqing, who was two years younger than himself, in the brothel. Batty felt that she was a little pitiful to sell herself in the brothel because she was so young, so she bought a house outside and took care of Zhou Yuqing.”
”Every day, Barty would go to the house to look for her. They lived like a little couple. After more than a year, Zhou Yuqing disappeared one day. It was like evaporation from the earth, and could not be found in any case.”
”Barty was depressed for a long time and began to drink and have fun outside every day. On that day, Barty and several friends drank a lot of wine and drove each other's floating cars to race in the late night. As a result, they lost their legs forever.”
