Qiu Yanzhi didn't care if he hugged him, his head was still buried in He Zhou's chest and rubbed.
He Zhou: "!"
He Zhou turned off the shower behind him, then gritted his teeth and broke Qiu Yanzhi's hand: "Qiu Yanzhi. What are you doing?"
Qiu Yanzhi slowly raised his head to look at him, his eyes were flushed with tears, his eyes almost glistened with tears, and he seemed to be aggrieved: "He Zhou, my family..."
He Zhou took a deep breath: "...you go out first, I'm taking a shower now."
Qiu Yanzhi blinked blankly, only to realize that he was in the bathroom, and He Zhou...
Qiu Yanzhi looked down subconsciously.
He Zhou quickly stretched out his hand to cover Qiu Yanzhi's eyes, the other hand hugged Qiu Yanzhi in his arms, pinched Qiu Yanzhi's shoulder, and turned his body around.
He Zhou's ears were hot and his breathing was disturbed. He looked at the back of Qiu Yanzhi's head, and his voice became a little unstable.
"... Qiu Yanzhi, walk straight forward, open the door and go out."
After He Zhou finished speaking, Qiu Yanzhi froze, opened his left leg, followed He Zhou's instructions, and walked forward step by step.
Walk straight ahead, open the door, step out.
"Close the door." He Zhou said.
Qiu Yanzhi turned his back to the door, stretched out his left hand, fumbled for a long time before reaching for the doorknob, and then closed the door stiffly.
He Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He Zhou put on his pajamas, and when he opened the door and went out, Qiu Yanzhi was still standing outside the door, seemingly not moving a step.
He Zhou asked, "Qiu Yanzhi, how did you get in?"
He clearly didn't hear the slightest sound, but Qiu Yanzhi suddenly appeared in front of him.
Qiu Yanzhi blinked and said, "I... I used a teleport tool to read the card."
"... This kind of card is not allowed to be used in the future." He Zhou said.
Then he paused and changed, "I'm not allowed to use it when I'm taking a shower."
Then he looked at Qiu Yanzhi: "You just said, what happened to your family? Did something happen?"
Qiu Yanzhi widened his eyes, as if he had suddenly reacted. He turned his head in a panic, looked at the flower pot on the ground, squatted down and groped inside, and then he stood up and reached out to touch the flower pot hanging on the wall. The photo frame, when he was on tiptoe to touch the wall lamp, was grabbed by his wrist, He Zhou frowned and asked, "Qiu Yanzhi, what are you doing?"
Qiu Yanzhi turned to look at him, his eyes were slightly red again: "I'm looking for the monitor..."
He Zhou: "What?"
Qiu Yanzhi sniffed, his voice hoarse: "...I just found out that my apartment is full... there are monitors everywhere."
He Zhou was quiet for a while, he stretched out his hand, and the slightly chilled thumb rubbed lightly on Qiu Yanzhi's red eyes, comforting: "Qiu Yanzhi, I don't have a monitor at home, It's safe here, it's alright…”
Qiu Yanzhi was just a little scared at first, his eyes were a little wet, but he could barely control his emotions, but he didn't know why, after hearing He Zhou say this, he suddenly felt a sore nose, tears fell uncontrollably, hot The temperature fell on He Zhou's fingertips. He Zhou wanted to wipe his tears with his fingertips, but Qiu Yanzhi's tears kept falling more and more.
Qiu Yanzhi choked up, and his words were incoherent: "... I... I used a fluoroscopy card at the time, I wanted to look at the stars before going to bed, but... But I saw the monitor in the light, and then... Then I found out... my house... all the monitors, in the flower pots, on the air conditioner, everywhere on the table, I... I don't know who put those things... and why he put them …”
He Zhou suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged Qiu Yanzhi.
He Zhou pressed Qiu Yanzhi's head to his chest, and he could even feel tears soaking through his pajamas, sending the slightly hot temperature to his skin and to the heart under his skin. Blood vessel.
He put his chin lightly against Qiu Yanzhi's soft black hair, hugged him a little tighter, and then patted his back lightly, his voice soft and gentle: "It's alright, I've come out. Now, it's very safe here, Qiu Yanzhi, I will find that person and won't let others hurt you."
Qiu Yanzhi buried his head in He Zhou's arms, and after a while, his crying gradually became weaker and stopped.
He Zhou hugged him tightly, his body temperature was transmitted to Qiu Yanzhi through the thin pajamas, and Qiu Yanzhi could even hear He Zhou's steady heartbeat clearly.
Qiu Yanzhi suddenly felt that it was not good for him to do so.
He and He Zhou are no longer the original relationship.
He shouldn't go straight to He Zhou's house if something happened, he shouldn't appear in front of He Zhou who is taking a shower, he shouldn't hug He Zhou directly, and he shouldn't hide in He Zhou's arms and cry like he is now, and try to Seek He Zhou's comfort and protection.
He should let go, he should wipe away his tears, he should say sorry for bothering you, and go to a hotel or go back to your parents' house.
...but he didn't want to.
Qiu Yanzhi looked up at He Zhou, there were still some tears on his face, and his voice was hoarse: "He Zhou, can I... sleep here tonight?"
He Zhou nodded.
... Then can I sleep with you
Qiu Yanzhi didn't say this.
Because it is too much.
Qiu Yanzhi let go of He Zhou with some reluctance, and withdrew from his arms, saying, "...I sleep...Which room?"
"The bedding in your original room is still there." He Zhou said.
Qiu Yanzhi pursed his lips and said, "... Then, good night."
"Good night."
Qiu Yanzhi was lying on the bed and turned off the light. He wanted to sleep, but he closed his eyes, and the densely packed monitors suddenly appeared in front of him.
Qiu Yanzhi broke out in a cold sweat, he turned on the light, and flipped through the room again and again, without turning over any monitors, and then lay back on the bed.
But still can't sleep.
Qiu Yanzhi got off the bed and walked lightly to He Zhou's room.
The light in He Zhou's room was still on, and the pale yellow light leaked from the crack of the door.
Qiu Yanzhi knocked on the door.
He Zhou: "Come in."
Qiu Yanzhi opened the door and walked in.
He Zhou put down the tablet in his hand, looked up at him, and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not used to sleeping in the room?"
Qiu Yanzhi asked in a low voice, "He Zhou, is there really no monitor in that room? I always think, always think there will be."
He Zhou said: "There is no surveillance, don't worry, the gate of this house is under 24-hour surveillance, no one will come in to install those things."
"Okay." Qiu Yanzhi nodded. He looked up at the tablet beside He Zhou and asked, "Are you still working?"
"No." He Zhou said, "I'm checking the monitors in your apartment."
Qiu Yanzhi opened his mouth and whispered, "Thank you."
"you are welcome."
"... Then, I'm going to bed, good night."
"Good night."
He Zhou explained the situation to the trusted search team, and then contacted the bodyguard company here, planning to find a bodyguard for Qiu Yanzhi.
Qiu Yanzhi seemed very uneasy.
Just as He Zhou was seriously comparing the qualifications of his bodyguards, his door was knocked on again.
Qiu Yanzhi stuck his head out and asked, "He Zhou, is there only surveillance at the gate? Will someone come in through the wall..."
"No, in addition to the monitoring of the gate, there are also 360-degree all-round monitoring hanging on the street lights outside the house, and someone will come in through the wall."
"Would that..."
"Qiu Yanzhi." He Zhou put down the tablet in his hand, looked up at Qiu Yanzhi, and said, "Bring the quilt from your room."
Qiu Yanzhi blinked: "...what."
"You sleep with me tonight." He Zhou said.
Qiu Yanzhi's eyes suddenly lit up: "I'll be right back."
Two minutes later, Qiu Yanzhi came in with the quilt in his arms.
He Zhou folded his quilt and gave Qiu Yanzhi half of the space.
Qiu Yanzhi spread the quilt beside He Zhou, then lay in obediently, pulled the quilt up, covering half of his face, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes.
Qiu Yanzhi blinked and looked at He Zhou: "He Zhou, late..."
"You already said good night twice today." He Zhou said.
All right.
Qiu Yanzhi closed his mouth.
He Zhou put the tablet on the bedside table, turned off the light, and then lay back on the bed.
In the faint moonlight, he turned his head to look into Qiu Yanzhi's eyes, and said softly.
"Qiu Yanzhi, good night."
"… Good night."
Qiu Yanzhi closed his eyes and finally fell asleep.
When Qiu Yanzhi woke up the next day, he found that his quilt fell to the ground at some point, and he himself got into He Zhou's quilt, holding his waist tightly.
Qiu Yanzhi carefully loosened He Zhou's waist, and prayed in his heart that He Zhou hadn't woken up yet.
"Awake?" He Zhou's voice came from above.
Qiu Yanzhi froze all over.
Then he raised his head, looked at He Zhou, and said a little embarrassedly, "... I don't sleep well."
"I already knew that." He Zhou said.
Qiu Yanzhi touched his nose and sat up from the bed.
As a result, the moment Qiu Yanzhi just sat up, last night, he was holding He Zhou with snot and tears and crying, and it came to his mind again.
... that's too embarrassing.
"Cough, I was a little too panicked last night..."
"It's okay, it's normal."
The tablet He Zhou placed on the bedside table vibrated, and he picked it up and looked at it.
Qiu Yanzhi: "What? Are there any clues about the monitor?"
He Zhou said: "They said they plan to go to your house now, find out all those monitors, and take a look at the scene to see if there are any clues."
“Surveillance in our apartment floors…”
He Zhou said, "It's broken. It should have been prepared. Qiu Yanzhi, you moved last Friday, right?"
Qiu Yanzhi nodded.
He Zhou said, "You said that your flowerpot has surveillance cameras, but your flowerpot has been moved to my house."
Qiu Yanzhi: "You mean the surveillance was put in after the move?"
He Zhou nodded: "Yes, and when I moved you, your apartment was basically emptied. Besides the flower pots, many other small items were moved to my house. If the monitor is here If you put it up before, it is impossible to go through two moves, but no one finds the problem, and they are still in the same place."
Qiu Yanzhi picked up his mobile phone and glanced at the time: "Today is Tuesday, and it's only been five days since we moved last Friday, so the monitor was put in within these five days?"
He Zhou took out a pen and paper and said to Qiu Yanzhi, "You write down the time period you have been out and about in the past five days. I will ask them to focus on the investigation during this time period to find the people who entered and exited your apartment."
Qiu Yanzhi thought for a while, then lowered his head and began to write down the time period when he went out.
After Qiu Yanzhi finished writing, he handed the pen and paper to He Zhou, and then asked, "He Zhou, who do you think will be monitoring those surveillance cameras, and why do you want to monitor me?"
He Zhou took a photo of what Qiu Yanzhi wrote and sent it out, and then said to Qiu Yanzhi, "You said, Liu Cheng and I both remember what happened in the last game, and they were all NPCs with bugs, right? ?"
Qiu Yanzhi: "Do you mean that the person who put the monitor is the third NPC with a bug?"
He Zhou nodded: "Because of your status in this game, there is no reason for a normal NPC to monitor you, even if it is your father's competitor in the business field, it will not monitor you, and, you said This is a love game, but your love story with Ye Mingxu in this game has also been forcibly interrupted due to punishment."
Qiu Yanzhi understood what He Zhou meant.
As a love game, when the main plot of love has been interrupted, the players of the game will be in a free state.
There will be no major turning points, conflicts and contradictions in his living environment.
The NPCs in the love game are all active to promote the love story. When the love story is interrupted, those NPCs do not need to promote the story.
There is no reason to monitor him.
Then the person who installed the full monitor in his house is definitely not a normal NPC, but a buggy NPC.
He Zhou picked up the pen and paper, turned the page, and started writing on it.
He wrote a "bug number 3".
Then say, "Did you talk about the game when you called me at home after the move?"
"Yes."
He Zhou drew a line behind the No. 3 bug and said, "Then, this No. 3 bug should also be known. This is a game world, or in other words, he already knew it was a game world, otherwise he wouldn't be in you. Install surveillance at home."
Qiu Yanzhi had goosebumps all over his body.
He Zhou wrote his name and Liu Cheng's name on another spot and said, "Liu Cheng and I have both experienced a highly similar car accident."
He Zhou continued: "These two kinds of traffic accidents are definitely not ordinary traffic accidents. I thought about it carefully and found only two reasons. The first reason is that the game system is automatically erasing bugs. The second reason is that someone want to kill us."
"If it's the first cause, then bug #3 may have had or will have a similar crash."
"If it is the second reason, I suspect that the maker of these two crashes is bug No. 3."
He Zhou paused: "But there is still a problem here, the timing of Liu Cheng's death is too coincidental."
He died before he was ready to tell Qiu Yanzhi the truth he knew.
It's as if someone deliberately killed him to stop him from saying something.
He Zhou looked up at Qiu Yanzhi: "Did you say that after Liu Cheng exposed his bug, he ran away in a hurry, and at the beginning, he was unwilling to tell you the truth."
Qiu Yanzhi nodded: "It is because his behavior is too strange that I feel that he has the information I need."
He Zhou said, "What if what he knows is related to bug No. 3?"
If what Liu Cheng knew had something to do with bug 3, then maybe bug 3 killed him just to stop him from telling the truth.
And the reason why he knew that Liu Cheng was going to tell the truth to Qiu Yanzhi was because he installed a monitor in Qiu Yanzhi's home.
If so, everything is connected in tandem.
Qiu Yanzhi felt a little chills all over his body: "... No matter which of the two reasons is, it's terrible."
He Zhou shook his head: "No, it's not that bad."
"If it's the second case, bug No. 3 definitely has his motive for monitoring you, and finding him may be the key to getting you out of the game."
Qiu Yanzhi said, "...what if it's the first case?"
He Zhou smiled.
"If it is the first reason, it means that the system is actively responding to the bugs in the game. When all the bugs in the game are cleaned up, you can naturally go back."
He Zhou turned his head to look at Qiu Yanzhi and said, "No matter what the situation is, I will let you go back."
"I do not want."
Qiu Yanzhi said suddenly.
He Zhou: "What?"
Qiu Yanzhi pursed his lips, looked up at He Zhou, and said, "If all bugs must be cleaned up before I can go back, then I'd rather not go back."
Qiu Yanzhi looked at He Zhou and asked:
"He Zhou, don't you hate me? Don't you hate me? Don't you say that you want to help me out so that I can no longer disturb you? You don't say that when I leave, you will forget me and return Will you find someone else to live a good life? What? You are now willing to sacrifice yourself in order to let me go out?"
He Zhou was silent for a while and said, "If the system wants to clean up bugs, I have no choice."
Qiu Yanzhi: "Then you should worry now, what should you do if the system wants to attack you again, instead of telling me with a smile that I can go back after the bug is cleaned up."
He Zhou: "We're just discussing ways to get you out now."
"But your current behavior will make me think you still like me." Qiu Yanzhi said.
He Zhou pulled the corners of his mouth and sneered.
"Qiu Yanzhi, how obsessed do I have to be to like you?"
Qiu Yanzhi stared straight at He Zhou: "Then what are you doing now?"
So what are you doing
Then what are you doing when you hold the fearful me in your arms
Then what are you doing to make me sleep beside you, who is disturbed
Then, regardless of the danger that you might be cleared, you also smiled and said to me, you will send me out, what are you doing
The air quieted for a moment.
Obviously, at first, he was only seriously discussing how to plan how to get out.
But I don't know why, it will become such a tense atmosphere.
He Zhou was quiet for a long time.
He slowly closed his eyes and his voice became a little rough.
"...I'm obsessed."
