Cheng Xu on the phone was completely out of control. Although he said a few words, Xu Tangcheng couldn't hear him at all with his crying. He didn't get any useful information, and he called back many times, but no one answered.
"I heard that the environment on his side is very noisy, and there is a lot of music," Xu Tangcheng guessed based on his own feeling, "and he drank too much, it should be in a bar."
However, with so many bars in Beijing, which one will Cheng Xu be in
At three o'clock in the morning, the two of them were driving around the streets of Beijing City and couldn't find any clues. Xu Tangcheng guessed that only Fu Daiqing could cause Chengxu to collapse, but he and Fu Daiqing did not know each other, nor did he have any contact information. Even then, he discovered that he could not think of anyone who was close to Chengxu and might know his whereabouts.
If they can't get in touch, they can only find it by chance.
"Go to Gongti first, there are many bars there." Xu Tangcheng frowned and pulled out his phone address book, ready to ask his classmates who often go to bars.
"Ask Zheng Yikun." YiZhe said suddenly while driving.
He knew that Zheng Yikun was crazy in bars. At the craziest time, he spent five nights a week in different bars. He is very familiar with the owners of several famous bars, and he also told Yi Zhe that if he goes to play, the price of wine can be reduced by at least 30%.
Xu Tangcheng used Yizhe's cell phone to dial Zheng Yikun's number, but no one answered the first call, and the second call rang three times and connected.
"Hey?"
His ears hurt by this sound, but Xu Tangcheng could no longer move his phone away. He raised his voice and asked where Zheng Yikun was, but Zheng Yikun seemed to be unable to hear him, and he said "Hello" again, and urged him to speak quickly.
"Where are you!"
Xu Tangcheng had never used such a loud voice to roar in his life. After roaring three words, his throat started to hurt. He coughed, but YiZhe didn't care that he was still driving, so he reached out and grabbed the phone. He didn't put his ear to the receiver, but put the phone directly to his mouth, shouting to Zheng Yikun to find a quiet place quickly, he was in a hurry.
After waiting for about ten seconds, Zheng Yikun's voice finally came back to normal: "What's the matter?"
Yi Zhe handed the phone back to Xu Tangcheng.
"I'm Xu Tangcheng," Zi Chen said, and Xu Tangcheng began to explain the situation quickly, "Cheng Xu just called me, and he was crying and making trouble and couldn't hear what he was saying. I still don't know what happened, nor I know where he is, but I can't contact him now. But the background on the phone was very noisy, similar to you, it should be in a bar. Yizhe and I don't know where to start, so I want to ask you."
"Fuck," Zheng Yikun scolded immediately after hearing this, "Is he alone or is he taken by some friends?"
Xu Tangcheng knew that different situations would have different consequences, so he didn't dare to hide it and said truthfully: "I don't know if he is alone, but I guess it's because of emotional issues."
"That's one person." Zheng Yikun answered quickly.
The hand holding the phone tightened, Xu Tangcheng looked at his knees and said nothing.
"He likes a man, doesn't he." Zheng Yikun said this, not like a question at all. Before Xu Tangcheng could answer, he quickly said, "Go to des, Gongti West Road, Destination."
At the beginning of the call, Xu Tangcheng heard that Zheng Yikun also drank a lot of alcohol, but at this time, he still maintained a clear idea in the analysis.
"I don't know much about gays. That one is the most famous gay bar in Beijing. Many people choose to have their first club club with a sense of shit ritual. And once I said to take him to a bar to play, He asked me about this place," Zheng Yikun's breath became heavy and messy, as if he was running, "I'm near the workers' body, I'll go look for it."
Xu Tangcheng responded, Zheng Yikun said a few more words, and then hung up the phone.
They drove towards Gongti West Road, but this night seemed to be particularly rough. His hand on his lap kept clenching and unclenching, YiZhe saw it and reached out to cover it.
The hand was terribly cold, and he didn't shake it back.
"Don't be too nervous," YiZhe squeezed the position of his tiger's mouth lightly, "Didn't Zheng Yikun say that the bar is fairly safe and doesn't have those messy things?"
With the other arm resting on the car door, Xu Tangcheng pressed his forehead. After being silent, he said softly, "I thought he was fine."
YiZhe didn't understand the situation, so he couldn't say anything at this time, he just squeezed Xu Tangcheng's hand a little harder and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner in the car.
According to Zheng Yikun's description, they quickly found the bar. The appearance is very low-key, and you can't see the hustle and bustle hidden inside. At the door, they happened to meet Zheng Yikun, who was running sweaty, and the three of them looked bad. Before entering, Zheng Yikun turned around and said to Yi Zhe, "Don't separate the two of you later, and no matter what happens, you can't stay here. Get your hands on it."
YiZhe was stunned for a while, not quite understanding what his words meant. Zheng Yikun didn't bother to explain, walked at the front and took them into the bar.
There is a dance hall on the first floor, and it is still crowded at this time. Xu Tangcheng was concerned about Chengxu, so he was always in a hurry, giving himself no time to adapt to the suddenly changing environment. It was as if he had suddenly entered another unfamiliar world, and he couldn't describe how he felt when he just stood on the edge of chaos and saw the crowd full of people.
On the stage, a muscular man wearing only underwear was dancing a sexy dance, and what was revealed off the stage was the purest admiration for sensuality. The cheering people stretched out their hands unabashedly, and there was no coy gesture from the people on the stage. Xu Tangcheng even saw a hand reaching into the man's underwear on the stage, the man was laughing and twisting, and everyone was screaming. This scene had too much impact on him, so he quickly staggered his gaze and continued to move forward.
Passed by two men, one pushed the other against the wall, hugged and kissed. Xu Tangcheng had no intention of peeping, but his eyes inevitably swept over there when he was searching. With a quick glance, he could clearly see that they were caressing each other without hesitation, revealing a happy expression on their faces, Xu Tangcheng even seemed to be Moaning from that mouth could be heard in the loud decibel of music.
Contrary to what Xu Tangcheng thought, the liveliness here does not seem to cover language, it is warm but empty, and freedom is stripped away. Compared with the life that occupies most of people's time, this place is like darkness under the strange light, giving all emotions and desires a chance to be naked, and also pulls up a huge shady curtain for them. People who walk in can get off here. Take away all the cover and have a spree that won't be ridiculed.
Someone was fighting on the dance floor with people they didn't know, someone wearing a wig and wearing heavy makeup, someone changing three kisses in five minutes.
Just like tears can hide in heavy rain unnoticed, no one here thinks you're crazy because there's a flood of madness all around.
Xu Tangcheng's sense of discomfort came slowly, and the colorful light and writhing figure shook his eyes, and he was suddenly stunned by the noise and chaos. He stopped, and for a moment, he was at a loss, as if he had suddenly lost his way.
A hand put a hand on his shoulder, embraced him, and continued to walk forward through the various people.
He turned around and saw YiZhe. The tensed jaw remains the usual posture, nothing has changed.
It is too difficult to find a person in such a scene. The three of them circled around the place outside the dance floor on the first floor, but did not see Cheng Xu. Zheng Yikun looked upstairs and on the dance floor respectively, then turned around and got into the group of people dancing randomly. Xu Tangcheng and Yi Zhe also followed, and went in different directions with Zheng Yikun.
There are too many people on the dance floor, all with different excited gestures and doing different things. Xu Tangcheng could always see the enlarged faces in front of him, they would smile at him, and some would even wriggle close to him, trying to make him dance together. They kept colliding and rubbing against other people's bodies, and the smell of perfume and smoke came from their noses...
In the end, Xu Tangcheng was almost half-held by Yi Zhe and moved forward.
It was Yi Zhe who saw Cheng Xu first. He suddenly changed direction, wrapped his arms around Xu Tangcheng, turned to the right, and pointed to a corner of the dance floor - Cheng Xu was being hugged and kissed by a tall man. There is a void in the eyes.
Xu Tangcheng's heart tightened, and he quickly squeezed over there, but when he was still a few floors away from them, he saw the man put his hand into Chengxu's sweatpants. Cheng Xu frowned suddenly and put his hand on the man's shoulder. The man suddenly bent over and said something with a smile in his ear. Cheng Xu's hand immediately changed, and he didn't push the man away.
The man then pushed his arms hard, letting Cheng Xu stick tightly to his body. Then he stood up, imitating a certain behavior.
Immediately, Xu Tangcheng only felt that something exploded in his head, and his face was hot with anger. He didn't care about squeezing others, and rushed towards that corner almost arrogantly. But before the crowd was separated, a person suddenly rushed out from the side, grabbed Cheng Xu's arm with one hand, and pulled hard.
The man was unprepared, and Zheng Yikun simply and neatly took Cheng Xu into his arms.
Cheng Xu naturally didn't realize what happened. He stared blankly at the person in front of him. He didn't move, didn't speak, and the corners of his eyes were still red.
Zheng Yikun also looked down at him. For a moment, he suddenly rubbed his rubbed head and raised his eyebrows loudly: "Baby, why are you so disobedient, I've been looking for you for a long time."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the man who had taken advantage of it just now.
Several of them stood very close, and when they heard Zheng Yikun's words just now, the man raised his eyebrows, tilted his head with an innocent expression and asked, "Are you two?"
Zheng Yikun didn't speak, just stared at him intently and smiled.
The man looked at him and at Cheng Xu, who was still in a daze, as if confirming.
"Did you kiss him?" Zheng Yikun suddenly asked with a half-smile.
"I didn't know he was in company," the man smiled and shrugged, raising both hands to his chest, "he's been here a long time by himself."
Here, it is normal for unaccompanied strangers to hug, kiss, and caress each other.
After Zheng Yikun listened, he stretched out a hand and squeezed Chengxu's chin, forcing him to look up at himself. For some reason, Cheng Xu's eyes were a little redder than before, and he pursed his lips so tightly that the corners of his mouth were pressed down slightly, as if he was about to cry. Zheng Yikun lowered his head and approached Cheng Xu's face, almost touching his lips.
"Baby..." He looked into Cheng Xu's eyes and said ambiguously, "Tonight you are finished."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but press Cheng Xu's face into his arms, so as not to let him show it again. The man beside him still wanted to speak, but he glanced down and saw something, and was suddenly stunned.
Xu Tangcheng saw that he suddenly shook his head and laughed, and said, "Okay, no wonder."
Before leaving, the man patted Zheng Yikun on the shoulder and said "sorry".
Xu Tangcheng walked over to pull the man with his head up, but he didn't expect that Cheng Xu suddenly hugged Zheng Yikun tightly with both arms after feeling someone was pulling him, and took a step forward to get closer to him. .
Xu Tangcheng was startled, thinking that Cheng Xu had not seen him just now.
"Chengxu," he patted Chengxu's back with one hand, leaned into his ear and said, "I'm Xu Tangcheng."
I don't know if he didn't hear clearly or what, but Cheng Xu still didn't look up. He looked nervous, grabbing Zheng Yikun's clothes with both hands, clenching his fists tightly.
"He drank too much," Zheng Yikun interjected. "Let's go out first, then go out and talk about it."
Xu Tangcheng was in a very bad mood at this time, and the incompatible environment around him, the situation that was out of control and could not be taken into account, made him feel restless. He turned around and wanted to greet YiZhe to go out, but saw a delicate-looking boy standing behind YiZhe. He was rubbing his chest against YiZhe's back, and a hand was about to put a hand on YiZhe's shoulder.
Looking at him, Xu Tangcheng saw the emotions in his eyes clearly in his astonishment - as if he had seen his favorite prey for a long time, obsessed and eager to try.
Surrounded by people, the friction of the body is not uncommon. YiZhe did not realize the ulterior motive behind it, and still stood there looking straight at Xu Tangcheng.
The boy was obviously not as sensible as the man just now. After receiving Xu Tangcheng's gaze, not only did he not step back, but instead looked back at him with a provocative smile, he also stood on tiptoe, raised his neck, and put his lips behind Yizhe's ear.
Xu Tangcheng finally understood why Zheng Yikun said that don't do it.
YiZhe had noticed the strangeness in his eyes at this time, but before he had time to turn around, Xu Tangcheng had already stepped forward and pulled him by his arm.
Xu Tangcheng didn't stop, and dragged him out. YiZhe only saw the boy when he turned around. He was wearing a light yellow short sleeve, thin enough to see the outline of the young body. The boy was staring at himself meaningfully, and when he saw him look over, he licked his lips and smiled.
He couldn't stay any longer, Xu Tangcheng desperately wanted to go out, but Zheng Yikun said that Chengxu was going to the toilet and asked them to go out first and take him there by himself.
Xu Tangcheng nodded, and Zheng Yikun quickly hugged Cheng Xu and left.
Looking at the person who was still holding Zheng Yikun and refused to look up, for some reason, Xu Tangcheng had a strange feeling. He knew that he shouldn't make assumptions about others, but after taking two steps towards the door, he couldn't convince himself, so he pulled YiZhe to change direction.
There was a long line at the door of the bathroom. What surprised Xu Tangcheng and Yi Zhe was that most of the line was men, but they were scattered and there were a few girls. Without Zheng Yikun and Chengxu in the team, they stopped and didn't look any further. When he left, Xu Tangcheng turned his head and glanced at the door of the toilet, and happened to see a man and a woman entering back and forth.
Later, he learned that the toilets on the first floor of des are truly shared by men and women.
"Where did they go?" Xu Tangcheng felt uneasy, pulled down Yi Zu beside him, and asked with frown in his ear.
As soon as the words fell, the two saw Zheng Yikun's back at the same time.
He and Chengxu were in a dark corner, Chengxu leaned against the wall and put his arms around Zheng Yikun's neck. He didn't stand up straight, and was blocked by Zheng Yikun again. At this time, only a small horn of his forehead was exposed, and he couldn't see his expression.
With just one glance, Xu Tangcheng and Yi Zhe knew what Zheng Yikun was doing from his slightly shaking arms.
"Fuck." Yi Che didn't expect Zheng Yikun to do such a thing to Cheng Xu, so he scolded him out of his mouth. He panicked in his heart and was about to step forward immediately, but just as he took a step, he was pulled by Xu Tangcheng.
Not far away, Cheng Xu's arm around Zheng Yikun suddenly tightened, and a few seconds later, it suddenly loosened. Zheng Yikun moved, tightening the man in his arms.
If Xu Tangcheng read it right, he lowered his head and kissed Cheng Xu.
When they went out, Zheng Yikun and Cheng Xu were already waiting outside. This time Cheng Xu didn't hold Zheng Yikun anymore, but squatted on the side of the road alone, looking at the ground, wondering what he was thinking. Zheng Yikun stood beside him smoking a cigarette, his eyebrows tightly twisted. The smoke seemed to be frightened by his ferocious spirit and did not dare to stay any longer. Before it took shape in the air, it could not wait to disappear.
"He can't get in the car," Zheng Yikun said in the same place when he saw them coming out, "I'll carry him to find a place to sleep, and you can go back."
"No." Xu Tangcheng glanced at Zheng Yikun lightly, then walked to Chengxu's side, squatted down and asked him how he was doing.
With this cold look, and the fact that the two of them came out so late, Zheng Yikun immediately guessed something. He turned his eyes to YiZhe, and YiZhe was also looking at him, his face was not very good-looking.
Zheng Yikun turned his head away, smiled to himself, and brushed off the ash from the underside of the tree.
The night was cold, the wind was strong, and a pile of soot scattered and fell diagonally. Cheng Xu, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stretched out his hand to pick it up. Xu Tangcheng saw him and immediately pressed him down.
Chengxu stretched out another hand to fish for the last bit of soot in the air.
The ashes escaped from his fingers, and he suddenly waved his hand towards the empty air like a drink and frantically, struggling to lunge forward. Xu Tangcheng was startled, he quickly supported his shoulder and took him into his arms. But the drunkard had no idea where the strength came from, and Xu Tangcheng was hit by him, almost both of them fell to the ground.
YiZhe quickly stepped forward to the other side to support Chengxu. Chengxu was suppressed by two people, and he was still making trouble, mumbling vaguely, trying to pick up the soot that was no longer there.
Zheng Yikun took two steps and squatted in front of Cheng Xu. After quietly watching him make trouble for a few seconds, he suddenly took a deep breath of cigarette, leaned forward with his wrist pinched, and spit all the smoke rings into his face.
"Cough..."
Choking, Cheng Xu bowed and coughed non-stop.
"What are you doing?" Yi Zhe asked before Xu Tangcheng spoke.
Zheng Yikun didn't answer. He loosened it into a flock, spread one hand flat in front of him, and flicked the index finger with the cigarette at a position very close to the palm, and half of the cigarette trembled.
A piece of soot fell straight into his palm, along with the unextinguished sparks struggling in the night.
Xu Tangcheng and Yi Zhe looked at him in surprise at the same time, but Zheng Yikun seemed to be unconscious, shaking his hand calmly, causing the ashes to roll around.
Then he gently pulled up the fluffy hand, spread his fingers, and transferred the quickly cooled soot into his palm.
