The snow outside is getting better, and the tea fragrance inside the house is getting stronger.

As it arrived on time at six o'clock in the evening, the wall where Lan Yu was previously located suddenly shook.

Then, the wall seemed to be a sliding door, slowly opening from behind, revealing the small guest room.

The two rooms were connected into one with the walls opened.

The water vapor on the tea table filled Li Yi's figure with some illusion.

He sat on a futon, holding the tea bowl and shaking it gently, and then drank it all.

Ji Li walked out of the corner, walked towards the secret room inside, and finally sat opposite him.

In the quiet room, there were only the two of them, and the still steaming tea.

After Ji Li lit a cigarette, he placed the cigarette box and lighter on the tea table.

One person drank tea and the other person smoked, and neither of them spoke immediately.

Outside the foggy window, there were snowflakes floating, and they were all enjoying a short and precious tranquility.

Until Li Yi put down the tea bowl, put his hands on his knees, and said softly:

"Congratulations."

Ji Li looked at the man opposite him who looked exactly the same as him and had only some characteristics, and asked back:

"What are you congratulating me?"

"You got a puzzle and killed Gu Xingjian."

Li Yi's tone was a little sad. Obviously, the congratulations were not sincere, or he was worried about them.

Ji Li looked at him and suddenly realized that the person felt very different when he met several times.

When he met for the first time, he was particularly strong and stubborn; when he met for the second time, he was a little confused and helpless on the moat; but when he met for the first time, he felt like he was losing something and his mind changed.

After a while, Ji Li took another deep breath of cigarette and shook his head and said:

"Gu Xingjian is not dead, it's too difficult to kill him."

Li Yi poured himself a cup of tea again, but did not lift it up, just said softly:

"The ending of a thing is as important as the process. You have already killed him twice, so you are successful."

Facing Li Yi, Ji Li often feels déjà vu when he sees another self.

It seems that he and Li Yi are the same person, but they are just walking on different life paths.

Thinking about the question he had thought about before again, Ji Li hesitated for a moment and asked bluntly:

"I really want to know, are you standing on Tianhai or on the clerk's side?"

Li Yi's identity and position are extremely important.

Ji Li has a bet with Tianhai, and he must consider all the characters that are enough to generate variables.

At present, Gu Xingjian can be roughly sure that he is the opposite of Tianhai.

Then Li Yi must also understand his position.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, and seemed to have some taboos on this question and did not answer it immediately.

But after considering it for a while, a relatively obscure answer was given:

“I just want to stand on my own side.”

This sentence is like nonsense, but if you read it carefully, you will find that it actually symbolizes Li Yi's situation, wishes and contradictions.

Ji Li knew that his judgment of Li Yi was accurate.

Li Yi is very contradictory.

His contradiction lies in the conflict between the strength of the sky and its own will.

"The bird with wings fell into a dry well..."

Thinking of Gu Xingjian's wonderful metaphor, Ji Li didn't know how to talk about continuing the following topic for a moment.

Time passed by minute by minute, and more than ten minutes had passed since this secret appointment.

Finally, Ji Li lit the second cigarette and asked:

"What do you think of this mission?"

At this time, Li Yi had already drunk all the tea. He carried the teapot and said casually:

"I don't have any opinion, I'm here to come to see you."

Ji Li was speechless.

After a while, as the second cigarette burned out, he stood up and walked out of the door.

When he was about to leave, the person behind suddenly asked:

"If one day you see an unacceptable fate, what would you do?"

"Then make it what I can accept."

The door closed, and Ji Li's figure disappeared into the room.

Li Yi sat in front of the tea table, with some inexplicable emotion in his eyes and was speechless.

"Why didn't you do it just now? Ji Li was completely unprepared. I can help you kill him at any time.

Do you still want to go back to that little house? You will live your life without any light or light?"

Faced with its questioning, Li Yi just quietly repeated the sentence:

"I just want to turn it into what I can accept..."

...

"Nong Yueke..."

Chang Nian was driving while looking through the documents at hand, and then the prompt sound from his phone sounded.

She quickly slowed down the car and lit the screen, and the arrival of a new email was displayed above.

"Ji Li, take a look. This is the list of people with the same name and surname in this city that Yu Guo helped me check."

Ji Li took the phone, browsed it briefly, then compared the information provided by Lan Yu, and nodded.

"It's the same as the person Lan Yu is looking for, no problem."

Chang Nian breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know Lan Yu, but she had heard of his behavior. Fortunately, he did not make trouble on the list this time.

At the same time, Ji Li put the phone back to its original position, but did not turn off the screen.

The screen is frozen in a group chat, and conversation messages from some strangers are constantly popping up.

This is the participants of this task and are discussing the subjects to be investigated.

After Chang Nian accelerated over a car ahead, he turned his head and looked at Ji Li and asked:

"What are we going to do?"

Ji Li looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, the traffic on the road continued to increase, and the evening rush hour had arrived.

"Give them one night, it should be enough to complete the investigation of the seventeen Nongyuekes.

We will act after they investigate it clearly.”

Chang Nian frowned. She didn't understand Ji Li's intentions, but was sure that the other party had his own ideas, so she asked:

"What do we do after we go back to the branch?"

Ji Li seemed to have already thought of the follow-up plan and responded neatly:

"Go back and get some handy tools."

...

"Deputy Manager Xu, it's useless for you to squat here. Our manager comes back after the mission.

And if he is fine, he won't go out."

Yitong looked at the young man in front of her with helpless expression and persuaded her earnestly.

Xu Nan's name is not louder than Gu Qingyun and Lan Yu.

This may also be due to his methods that did not cause any harm to those two people, and he still retained a lot of conscience in his heart.

Yitong had heard of Xu Nan and was generally aware of the situation between him and Gu Xingjian, so she still felt a little sympathy in her heart when facing this person.

Xu Nan had been waiting outside the ninth branch for two days and two nights, and the blood on his face was as pale as snowflakes.

The already thin body looks even weaker in the past two days.

Yitong didn't say it clearly, but in fact, there should be another sentence after this sentence:

"You can't kill Gu Xingjian."

But Xu Nan ignored her, his eyes straightened and even seemed to have not seen her at all.

He just stared straight at the top of the mountain, and the ninth branch there was brightly lit, making his body in the shadow even smaller.

"Deputy Manager Xu, I think you should think about how to survive this four-star promotion mission.

If you want to take revenge, you have to save your life."

Yitong sighed, turned around helplessly, leaving only the last word of advice.

But Xu Nan was still staring at the top of the mountain like a walking corpse, his eyes full of blood.
