A Real Man Isn’t Afraid of a Little Demon

    After she fell asleep, Yu Chu took a bath and went back to her room to sleep. Lying on the soft bed, clicked on Xie Xingmu's WeChat avatar, and wanted to say something to him, but he didn't know what to say.

    Just as he was about to turn off the phone, he suddenly saw that the other party was typing at the top, and he felt agitated and sat up from the bed.

    Xie Xingmu: Are you asleep?

    Yu Chu: Hmm.

    Xie Xingmu's second message followed.

    Xie Xingmu: Go to bed early, going to bed late is not good for your health.

    Yu Chu: I can't sleep.

    Xie Xingmu: Why can't you fall asleep? Insomnia? If you have insomnia, drink some milk, there is in the refrigerator.

    Xie Xingmu: Don't drink iced milk, heat it up in a milk pan and add some sugar.

    Xie Xingmu: You can put up with the fishy smell, or add some juice to it.

    Xie Xingmu: Remember to brush your teeth after drinking.

    Yu Chu looked at his continuous messages, bit his lip, and suddenly quickly typed a message and sent it.

    Yu Chu: I miss you.

    Xie Xingmu was standing on the balcony smoking a cigarette. When this message popped into his eyes, he stared at the phone in silence. The light from the screen illuminated his deep eyebrows, and emotions flashed in those eyes, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

    "Team Xie, we'll analyze the case soon, we're all waiting for you."

    Xie Xingmu extinguished the cigarette butt, threw it into the trash can next to it, turned off the phone and put it away, and replied, "Come on."

    He strode into the house, stopped after walking a few steps, took out his phone again and turned on the screen.

    The page was still on the conversation with Yu Chu, he sent a voice: I will talk later when I go back, I will have a meeting now, don't turn on the phone, I will turn it off first, you go to drink milk now ,sleep.

    After Yu Chu sent that message, he kept waiting for Xie Xingmu's reply, but until the light on the screen disappeared, and no new message was seen.

    He still kept staring at the phone, and his heart gradually began to be disappointed, but when he was about to put down the phone, the screen turned on again, and with a ding, Xie Xingmu's new news came.

    He listened to the voice over and over several times before turning off the phone and turning off the lights, and slipped into the bed with a smile on his lips.

    A moment later, the light snapped back on.

    He put on his slippers and walked out of the bedroom, went to the kitchen refrigerator to get a bottle of milk, poured it into the milk pot and heated it on the natural gas stove, then found the sugar bowl and added a spoonful of sugar to it.

    Two minutes later, he drank a mouthful of hot sweet milk, thinking that milk is still delicious.

    The next day was another hectic morning. Because there was no breakfast reserved by Xie Xingmu, Yu Chu got up early and scrambled eggs by himself.

    Chi Duoduo sat at the dining table with disheveled hair, looked at the two dark objects on the plate, and asked curiously, "Little Chu, what is this?"

    The word fried egg could not be said anyway, Yu Chu picked up the plate, emptied the contents into the trash can, and said, "Let's go, let's go out for breakfast."

    There is a steamed bun shop not far from the gate of the community. Yu Chu went to line up and stood beside him.

    "Four custard buns and soy milk, twelve pieces." The owner handed the food bag to Yu Chu who was lined up.

    Yu Chu bowed his head and scanned the code to pay the bill, and took Chi Duoduo to take a taxi. He opened the door of the taxi and hugged Chi Duoduo in, but he didn't get in the car, holding the door and looking behind him.

    At that moment, he felt that somewhere, someone was watching him.

    "It's not easy to stop here for too long. Do you want to leave?" the taxi driver asked impatiently.

    Yu Chu had no choice but to look away and get into the car, feeling a little uneasy after sitting down. Chi Duoduo shook his legs, eating a custard bun and a mouthful of soy milk.

    "Little Chu, eat quickly." He also urged Yu Chu.

    "Hmm."

    Forget it, don't think about it, no matter if anyone is spying on you, just be careful.

    After sending Chi Duoduo into the kindergarten classroom, Yu Chu stopped a taxi to go home, but before reporting the place name, remembering what happened just now, the address he said was changed to Haiyun City Public Security Bureau.

    There is a cafe opposite the Public Security Bureau. He stayed there for a day, and he couldn't believe who would dare to come and play any tricks.

    He was sitting in the booth by the window, with his mobile phone on the table, watching TV shows with headphones on, diagonally opposite the gate of the Public Security Bureau, and he could see every car coming and going.

    As long as the retractable door was slowly closed, he raised his head and stared, and after seeing the person in the window, he continued to look at the phone screen.

    Sitting in the cafe until noon, he ate a bowl of noodles in the noodle shop next to him, then went back to ask for a cup of coffee and continued to sit.

    In the afternoon, a police car came back from the street and stopped in front of the gate. Yu Chu looked over habitually, and through the open passenger car window, he saw that the person sitting inside was Xie Xingmu.

    Xie Xingmu put his elbows on the car window. Because of the sunlight, he half-squinted and said something to the staff on duty. He didn't go home last night, and there was a layer of light blue on his chin, which was the beard that had just emerged.

    However, this stubble does not make him look gaunt, but adds a bit of mature charm.

    Yu Chu stared at him for a moment, but his fingers moved on the phone, and sent a Tusky to twist his **** over.

    The retractable door slowly opened, and the moment the police car started to enter, he saw Xie Xingmu looking down at the phone, with a faint but happy smile on his side face.

    Yu Chu also pursed her lips and smiled.

    Then, his cell phone beeped and received a message from Xie Xingmu.

    That is a moving picture, the cat in the picture is stroking its head, showing a very enjoyable look, and there are three words on the picture: Be good.

    In the police car, Li Siming, who was driving, asked curiously, "Captain Xie, what are you laughing at your phone?"

    Xie Xingmu smiled: "Am I smiling? Drive your car well."

    “…Yes.”

    "Also, send me a few pictures of cats, the ones that can move, the ones that don't move, the ones that are good-looking, not the ones that are ugly."

    Li Siming responded decisively: "No problem, I will find a bunch of pictures of beautiful cats for you. But Team Xie, why are you suddenly interested in cats? Are you going to buy cats for Duoduo? "

    Xie Xingmu put away his mobile phone and tapped the car door with his fingers on the window: "There are cats at home, but not too many, it's mine."

    "Wow, what kind of cat?"

    Xie Xingmu glanced at him and said lightly, "I don't know what kind, but it's the best looking one."

    Seeing that it was almost time, Yu Chu got up and went to the kindergarten to pick up a lot late. After he walked out of the cafe, he looked around and made sure there was nothing wrong before he stopped a taxi to go to the kindergarten.

    Received Chi Duoduo, when he walked out of the gate of the kindergarten, Chi Duoduo stared at the ice cream shop across the street and couldn't move, hugged Yu Chu's thigh and begged: "Xiao Chu..."

    Yu Chu didn't realize that he had actually become a doting parent these days, never rejecting any request from Chi Duoduo, let alone an ice cream, so he led Chi Go across the street a lot.

    There was already a long line at the door of the ice cream shop, all adults picking up and dropping off children. When Yu Chu stood inside, Chi Duoduo was talking to a little girl behind.

    After queuing for a while, Chi Duoduo let go of Yu Chu's hand and chatted with the little girl. The little girl also let go of her mother, and the two squatted under a tree on the street to watch the ants.

    Yu Chu was a little worried and kept looking at him, only when he was lined up in front of the window, did he turn his head to choose the ice cream inside.

    This is what happened.

    In just a few seconds, there was no exclamation, and there was no movement. When Yu Chu turned back, only the little girl was left under the big tree.

    "Duoduo, Duoduo, Duoduo..." Yu Chu couldn't find any trace of Chi Duoduo everywhere, and asked the little girl, "Where's the kid you are playing with?"

    "He, he got in the car," said the little girl.

    "What car?"

    The little girl stammered and couldn't tell, and Yu Chu's face was too ugly, even more so. On the other hand, an old man next to him said, "A car suddenly stopped just now, grabbed the boy into the car and drove away."

     "What car?" Yu Chu asked eagerly.

    "It's a black sedan."

    Yu Chu's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, he took out the phone and wanted to call Xie Xingmu, but as soon as he took out the phone, it rang, and the call was from an unfamiliar number.

    He answered without hesitation: "Hello."

    Inside was a disguised hoarse male voice: "Yu Chu, if you want the child to survive, you are not allowed to call the police."

    "Who are you? What are you going to do?" Yu Chu asked sharply when he heard the car horn in the background of the phone.

    "Don't care who I am, I will give you the address in 20 minutes, you can come alone according to the address, if you don't come or bring someone else, the child will die. And , if you dare to call the police, you will also wait to collect his body."

    Yu Chu was afraid that the other party would hang up the phone, so he quickly said, "How can I believe that the child is in your hands?"

    As soon as I asked, I heard Chi Duoduo's terrified voice: "Xiao Chu—"

     Before Yu Chu could answer, the call was hung up.

    Some parents around are talking and asking if Yu Chu has been robbed of her child. If so, then call the police immediately. Yu Chu shook his head with an ugly face, and said, "I was picked up by my family." After speaking, he ignored their surprised eyes and walked forward along the street.

    The warm sunset shone on his body, but he could not feel any temperature, and his heart was frozen into ice. He walked forward in despair, still carrying a bag of ice cream in his hand, when someone knocked him in the face, the bag fell to the ground, he didn't even look at it, and continued to walk forward.

    It's his fault, it's all his fault, he didn't take good care of Duoduo, but Duoduo was snatched away because of him.

    The time he lived in Xie Xingmu's house was the safest time in his life experience. Xie Xingmu's breath was all around him, and a sense of security wrapped his whole body, which made him lazy, paralyzed, let him relax his vigilance, and put away his keen tentacles.

    And now, how is he going to explain all this to Xie Xingmu?

    Thinking that Xie Xingmu would look at him coldly, blame him, and drive him away from that warm home, Yu Chu trembled uncontrollably.

    I know the taste of warmth, even a hint of coldness will make people unbearable. He felt that he could no longer bear the life of a person, without Xie Xingmu, without a long life, it made him think about it like falling into an icehouse, and his whole heart was like falling into a bottomless abyss.

    No, I must bring Chi Duoduo back completely.

    Yu Chu stood still, trembling nervously, nails digging deep into his palms, and his eyes were desperate and cruel.

    Even if I take my life, I will bring Chi Duoduo back completely.

    Twenty minutes later, the phone in his pocket rang again. Yu Chu took out his phone and saw that it was the same number just now. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, calmed himself down before pressing Answer: "Hello."

    "You are limited to one hour to go to the quarry outside Xicheng District. If you dare to call the police or bring other people, the child will die."

    This time he hung up the phone without waiting for Yu Chu to answer.

    Ten minutes later, Yu Chu stopped a taxi and went to the quarry in Xicheng District.

    Xicheng District is still under development. Along the way, there are fewer and fewer houses and vehicles, and it has gradually reached the suburbs. The taxi driver parked his car in front of a dirt road and said, "There is a quarry ahead, but the road is so bad that my car can't go through it. Get off here and walk for about ten minutes."

    Yu Chu paid the bill and waited until the taxi turned around before going inside along the dirt road.

    There are no residents in this area. Stones are piled on both sides of the road. The road that is not wide has been crushed by heavy trucks, making it even more difficult to walk.

    When the dirt road came to an end, there was a dilapidated factory building, which should be the quarry the person on the phone said.

    There was no one in the quarry, Yu Chu approached the factory building and reached out to push the closed iron door. The door was unlocked, and it opened with a creak. Inside was a large warehouse-like room, with only an old quarry in the middle.

    He looked around, didn't see anyone, didn't hear anything, and asked loudly, "Is there anyone?"

    The sound echoed in the factory building, making it seem more and more empty, but there was no response. He was about to take out his mobile phone and dial the number, when a small door beside him was suddenly pulled open and someone came out.

    "Yu Chu."

    Yu Chu squinted his eyes, put the phone back again, and said his name coldly: "Yu Feng."

    Yu Feng seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and the long face was even more sinister. He walked towards Yu Chu step by step, stopped half a meter away from him, squeezed three One word: "Dog bastard."

    Yu Chu was not angry, there was no expression on his face, and he did not ask Yu Feng why he wanted to come here, only asked: "Where is the child? What did you arrest him for? ?"

& nbsp; You are getting more and more energetic. Yu Chu, Yu Chu, I really underestimated you before. I never thought that you would be in the same group as that undercover spy. Our Yu family has fallen into this situation now, all thanks to you. You wolf-hearted bastard."

    With a loud and crisp sound, Yu Chu was slapped to the side, and a bright red overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

    He didn't wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, but turned his head and continued to ask in a hoarse voice, "Where did you keep the child?"

    "Death is imminent, you are still caring about that son of a bitch, so you should worry more about yourself."

    After Yu Feng finished speaking, he raised his hand and patted it, and two thugs came out of the small door next to him, standing behind Yu Feng.

    One held a gun at Yu Chu, and the other held a gun against the head of the little boy in his arms.

    That little boy is Chi Duoduo.

    Chi Duoduo's face was covered with tears, and when he saw Yu Chu, he began to struggle and cried loudly: "Xiao Chu, Xiao Chu..."

    "Don't cry, I will throw you to death if you cry again." Yu Feng turned his head and said viciously.

    The moment Yu Chu saw Chi Duoduo, his heart first loosened, then he became a ball, and after hearing his cry, he comforted: "Don't cry a lot, don't be afraid, it will be fine. "

    Chi Duoduo choked sensible: "I, I don't cry, I don't cry."

    "You take that son of a **** very seriously, and you just called me obediently." Yu Feng sneered: "You want that son to live? Wait a minute. I will strangle him in front of you."

    Seeing Yu Chu's face turning pale, Yu Feng narrowed his eyes cruelly: "That scene must be beautiful."

    "If you have any grudges, come at me and let the child go." Yu Chu squeezed his palm, his tone still very calm.

    Yu Feng looked at his face carefully and said: "I told my father before that your obedient appearance was all fake, and he still didn't believe it. Yu Chu, do you know? I used to feel sick when I saw you. Why don't you pretend now? Why don't you cry and tremble, curl up on the ground and pretend to be pitiful? The fox's tail can't hold it anymore?"

    The more Yu Feng spoke, the more excited he became, and he slapped Yu Chu again.

    After a snap, Yu Chu staggered to the side for two steps, he shook his dizzy head, endured the buzzing tinnitus, and whispered to Yu Feng: "If you have any grudges, just rush Come with me and let the child go... please..."

    "Begging me? Begging me? Do you think your word of request is very valuable? Bah." Yu Feng took a step back and asked in a cold tone: "Yu Chu, my previous leg was Did you interrupt? Huh?"

    Yu Chu gasped and did not answer, Yu Feng stepped forward to grab his hair again, forcing him to look at himself.

    "Ask you, did you break my leg?"

    Yu Chu glanced at Chi Duoduo behind him and replied, "Yes, I interrupted."

    Yu Feng roared angrily, and in the midst of Chi Duoduo's screams and howls, his fists slammed into Yu Chu's lower abdomen, and when he bent over in pain, another elbow knocked him to the ground.

    "How dare you break my feet, you **** bastard." Yu Feng stepped on Yu Chu's side face with his leather shoes, gnashing his teeth.

    Yu Chu choked out a mouthful of blood and gasped in pain, but still gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "Please, please let the child go..."

    "Huh? Let go of the child? It depends on my mood and whether you will satisfy me." Yu Feng laughed briefly and stretched out his hand to the side, "A Shui, Bring me the iron bar by the wall, and I will knock off his hands and feet."

    The thug who pointed the gun at Yu Chu turned and left, went to get the iron rod by the wall, Yu Feng let go of his feet proudly, looked down at Yu Chu, his eyes lit up with excitement .

    "Don't you want this **** to live? Then you have to give me a good howl..."

    Yu Chu lay on the ground, glanced at Ah Shui who was walking towards the wall, and then looked at Chi Duoduo behind.

    Chi Duoduo was held in his arms by another thug, and was looking at him with tears on his face, his big eyes full of terror.

    He was sure that Chi Duoduo had seen it and understood what he meant, because the child slowly stopped crying and his expression was no longer so frightened.

    A Shui, who walked to the wall, leaned over to grab the iron rod, but his hand slipped and the iron rod tumbled to the ground. The thugs and Yu Feng who were holding Chi Duoduo subconsciously looked over.

    Don't miss out!

    Yu Chu, who was motionless at first, suddenly jumped up from the ground and charged towards Chi Duoduo like a bolt of lightning. Before the thug who was holding him hadn't recovered, he held his gun-wielding hand and lifted it up.

    The thug subconsciously pulled the trigger, bang bang bang, a series of gunshots sounded, and a row of deep bullet holes appeared on the roof.

     Chi Duoduo also bowed his head at the same time, and bit the hand that was around his neck as Yu Chu taught him.

    Ah—

    The thug screamed in the sound of the gunfire, and as soon as his arm loosened, Chi Duoduo slipped and fell to the ground.

    "Run." Yu Chu shouted, "Run to the door."
