76, night(1/2)
After simple treatment of the injury, Xu Yinian was transferred to the medical point in Nanhai City.
Many people witnessed the fierce fight between Yu Huai and Tang Fei on Cross Street. The Demon Slayer General Administration must have responded to this matter. But it will still take time to convict Tang Fei and completely eliminate his influence.
, it can even be said to be extremely urgent. The whole matter has not yet been settled. For the sake of safety, Xu Yinian's treatment was carried out secretly at a medical point on the outskirts of Nanhai City.
The entire medical point is located deep in the mountains. It is remote and quiet. The equipment and medical staff are of top quality. There is no mobile phone signal in the mountains. Xu Yinian spent several days recuperating here. In addition to taking medicine and recovering, there was nothing left to do.
He spent all his free time lying down and resting, and could not move around without the permission of a medical doctor. Xu Yinian was bored while recuperating from his illness. After his injury was basically healed, he immediately contacted his family using the phone number of the medical center.
I heard that he was going home at night. Xu's mother on the other end of the phone seemed to have something to say. In the end, she just said gently: "Okay, your father is going home today too, and we are all waiting for you to come back."
Listening to her voice, the soft spot in Xu Yinian's heart seemed to be poked. He relaxed unconsciously and responded with a smile.
It was already dark when they arrived home. As soon as Xu Yinian entered the living room, he heard Xu's mother's footsteps in the distance?
"Xiao Nian is back?"
Xu's mother walked out of the kitchen, taking off her apron as she walked. She was wearing a dark green dress, which made her complexion fairer and gentler. In the middle of speaking, she turned around and told the aunt behind her: "Tang again."
Let it simmer for a while, then turn down the heat when the time is up."
Auntie answered?. Xu's mother walked up to Xu Yinian, held his hand, and frowned slightly: "Why is it so cold?"
"It's raining outside." Xu Yinian joked, "You actually entered the kitchen? It's really rare."
Xu's mother always stayed away from the sun, let alone washing and cooking. In Xu Yinian's impression, he had never seen his mother doing any housework since he was a child. Perhaps because she rarely worked hard, she had been doing it every day for ten years.
The place is bright and beautiful, in sharp contrast to Xu's father who works diligently in the field. As a child, Xu Yinian naively believed his parents' lies: his mother is a fairy, and she will not change even if she does not touch the fireworks of the world.
old.
But after a few years, no matter how well she took care of herself, fine lines would inevitably appear at the corners of her eyes. When she saw her son, she made a joke about it, and Xu's mother scolded her: "You're not going to come back. After a while?"
Try the soup I made, it took me seven or eight hours to cook."
She was about to take Xu Yinian to the restaurant when there was some movement at the entrance. Xu's father came back in the drizzle, his coat slightly damp. When he saw Xu Yinian, Xu's father's eyes flashed.
, walked forward quickly: "Are your injuries healed?"
Xu Yinian was stunned. Then he thought about it. Four days had passed since the Nanhai Branch secretly rounded up Tang Fei. Xu's father should have received the news and knew that he had just returned from the medical point.
Xu Yinian responded: "It's almost better."
Father Xu looked at him carefully, made sure he was okay, and then said, "Is everything okay? That's fine. Let's eat."
Seeing that Xu's father did not intend to ask him about the situation at that time, Xu Yinian was slightly surprised, and quickly thought of Xu's mother's natural attitude after returning home. It seems that his parents already knew what happened, but because of this action,
No details can be revealed, as long as he is safe and comes back, that's enough.
Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Yinian's lips curled up slightly. When he sat down at the dining table, he relaxed and stretched his body. Looking at the rich dinner on the table, he smiled at Xu's mother, unintentionally bringing a coquettish smile.
Taste?: "You have prepared so many dishes? It's just right. I haven't eaten anything good at the medical point these days. I can only lie there by myself every day? It's so boring."
I thought my parents didn't care about Tang Fei's arrest. He had already adjusted his emotions. In addition, he often brought injuries home before. Xu Yinian wanted to take the opportunity to act coquettishly and bring back the atmosphere. Unexpectedly, he
A casual sentence? But Xu’s mother’s expression froze for a second, and then she kept picking up vegetables for him, filling a big bowl full of them.
"Why haven't you eaten well? No wonder you seem to have lost some weight?... Even if it doesn't taste good, you should eat more."
When Xu's mother said that, her voice gradually became lower. She forced a smile, but she couldn't control her expression. The corners of her eyes and lips drooped downward. Sensing that the atmosphere was not right, Xu Yinian hesitated and said:
"mom……?"
Xu's mother waved her hands, unable to speak for a moment. When Xu's father saw this, he helplessly said to his wife softly: "Didn't we agree not to mention these things in front of Xiaonian for the time being?"
He turned his head and faced the nervous Xu Yinian: "Last night I received a notice that Tang Fei massacred the ghost clan and murdered the fortune teller... Your mother knew? She was in a bad mood after that, but she still heard Song Qi say that you would do it today
?I restrained myself only after I was discharged from the hospital and returned home."
Xu's father said jokingly: "It's already pretty good that she can stay stretched till now."
Xu's mother's lips moved and her voice trembled: "When I think of you, and Yu Huai... the things Tang Fei did really made you suffer."
Seeing that his wife was emotionally unstable, Xu's father held her hand. He slowed down his speaking speed, and a little guilt gradually appeared in his eyes: "Xiao Nian, your mother and I are very worried about not being able to protect you.
regret."
Xu's mother's eyes were red and she looked at Xu Yinian distressedly.
"You were less than ten years old at the time, so he changed your fortune." Thinking of what Tang Fei had done, Father Xu frowned and suppressed his anger, "For so many years, he used your fortune to disguise himself.
, you’ve suffered so much from the cold looks.”
Xu Yinian was stunned, looking at the self-blame that could not be hidden in his father's eyes, and said hurriedly: "It's okay? Dad, Mom, what are you thinking? It was his fault in the first place, who would have thought that he would?"
That kind of method——"
"I shouldn't... I didn't even think about it, so I sent you to be his teacher." Xu's mother took a deep breath and murmured, "And I asked you to respect him? It's really hard to listen to his teachings."
Recognize people? Not sure.”
The more Xu's mother spoke, the more guilty she became. Xu Yinian shook his head and said firmly: "Don't think so. Really, it's not your fault."
He didn't expect that Xu's mother would become even more sad because of his comfort: "And the ghost clan, I said those words to you at that time to separate you from Yu Huai... I clearly know that you feel uncomfortable..."
As she spoke, her voice trembled a little. Xu Yinian didn't know how to comfort her, so he subconsciously looked at Xu's father.
Thinking of the massacre that shocked both worlds five years ago, Xu's father also remained silent for a moment, and finally patted his wife's shoulder lightly: "Okay, at least Xiaonian is safe now."
"Yes, it's all over." Xu Yinian said, "I'm fine now, don't think too much about it."
Xu's mother wiped her tears and smiled at him: "Yes, don't talk about this? You can eat more."
After Xu's mother's mood stabilized, Xu Yinian asked Xu's father about the current situation.
"The rest of the matter is still being investigated, but I heard that over the past few years, Tang Fei has done a lot of things overtly and covertly through mental control." Xu's father paused for a moment, feeling quite dissatisfied with such despicable means.
Disdainfully, "The demon slayers from Tang Fei's line are all under investigation. There are still only a few who know about this matter. Once the investigation is made public, it will definitely be an unprecedented scandal in the demon slayer world."
When Xu Yinian heard this, he knew that Tang Fei had been convicted, and the last stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Xu's mother rarely interfered with Xu's father's work and knew very little about it. Thinking of Tang Fei's huge power, she couldn't help but worry: "Is there something wrong? Can we thoroughly investigate it?"
?"
Xu Yinian comforted him and said, "Don't worry, with Director Song and Yu Huai here, and the vice principal also participating in the investigation, there won't be any problems."
Father Xu nodded: "Everyone in the General Administration is alarmed. The old director is not in good health. He originally planned to give up his position in a few years. I didn't expect that Tang Fei would not be as good as he showed... I will do the same tomorrow.
Will you? Go to the General Administration and help participate in the investigation."
Xu's mother felt relieved: "That's good, we must investigate carefully."
After dinner, Xu's father received a temporary notice to rush out of the demon-killing bureau. Xu Yinian sat with Xu's mother in the living room for a while. During the chat, Xu's mother suddenly asked: "How is Yu Huai doing recently?"
?"
Xu Yinian did not expect that his mother would suddenly ask about Yu Huai's situation. Since getting back together with Yu Huai, he has not found a suitable opportunity to tell his parents about it. Xu Yinian felt a little guilty: "He...
…He’s pretty busy.”
Xu's mother shook her head and said softly: "I'm not asking about this, I'm talking about how he is doing. For so many years, the burden of the ghost clan has been placed on him alone."
Xu Yinian was slightly startled, remembering his conversation with Yu Huai at the boneyard, and replied softly: "He is doing very well now."
Seeing that he answered in the affirmative, Xu's mother thought thoughtfully, and finally nodded with a smile. After chatting for a while, Xu's mother saw that it was getting late and urged Xu Yinian to rest: "I don't usually care.
Thanks to you, you just came back from the medical center today, go to bed early, and don’t stay up late playing on the computer or mobile phone."
"Then you can't stay up late to watch dramas." Xu Yinian added, "Be careful of getting wrinkles."
Xu's mother choked and tried to deal with him, but Xu Yinian quickly slipped into the room.
Tang Fei's death caused an uproar in the world of demon slayers, and a series of events behind it made everyone in the demon slayer bureau panic. Even if he was recuperating at home, Xu Yinian could feel the unusual atmosphere. Xu's father
Since driving away from the Demon Slayer Bureau that night, he has been so busy that no one is around. Because Xu Yinian was Tang Fei's apprentice, staff from the Demon Slayer Bureau visited Xu's house for several days in a row, asking about Tang Fei.
Fi’s details.
Although the investigation of Tang Fei was carried out secretly, Xu Yinian opened the joint forum in his free time, and from time to time he could see information about catching wind and shadow in the demon slayer area. Even the monsters who had never cared much about the demon slayer world were talking about this round-up.
, especially the fierce fight between Yu Huai and Tang Fei on Cross Street has been constantly interpreted, with various explanations emerging one after another.
…
…
Xu Yinian closed the forum and yawned slowly.
Concerned that his injuries were not healed, Xu's mother had been reminding him to go to bed early these days. Xu Yinian developed the habit under her supervision. It was only after ten o'clock that he gradually felt sleepy.
"I've been sleeping so early recently, it's so healthy..." He muttered and turned off all the lights in the room. Xu Yinian lay on the bed and thought about what happened recently, and unknowingly he thought about it.
Yuhuai.
I don’t know? How is their progress there? Yu Huai seems to be very busy and has never had time to contact him. Xu Yinian does not bother him.
Even if the medical staff of the General Administration are highly skilled, does Yu Huai have time to lie down and recuperate?
Thinking of this, Xu Yinian couldn't help but feel a little worried.
He was lying on his side, with his back to the floor-to-ceiling window of the room, and did not notice the slight sound coming from the window. The clear moonlight shone into the house from outside, and the gentle night breeze blew by his face, which was pleasant and comfortable.
Yi Nian slowly closed his eyes. But the next moment, his eyes suddenly opened.
To be continued...
