His heart was faintly uneasy, as if at that moment something had been violently pulled away and flowed through his fingers, so that he could not hold it no matter how hard he tried.

When he returned to the second floor, he saw the door that had been pried open, and at this time it opened a crack slightly, probably because it was not closed tightly in a hurry.

Prying the door is not like something Lin Qing can do.

He had a trace of doubt from just now, it was impossible for Lin Qingruo to ignore his call alone, thinking of what Liang Ruoyi had said, he suddenly narrowed his eyes, and his pupils contracted violently.

"Commander!" The subordinate stepped forward in a low voice, wanting to go in and find out before Mu Li.

Mu Li waved his hand to stop: "My woman, I'll go by myself." ”

It was inconvenient for the subordinates to speak again, so they retreated behind him.

"Lin Qing?" Mu Li's slender legs stepped into the door, and the area of each old house was not large, and every corner could be seen at a glance when he walked in.

He could see clearly in the dark, and the doors of each room were tightly closed, because it had been uninhabited for a long time, and it was easy to tell if someone had opened it just now.

Obviously, no.

Mu Li settled at the door, and his retracted gaze fell on the side wall of the living room.

Only there is a dead end.

Lin Qing was held by Zheng Yan with a knife to her neck, she didn't dare to make a sound, and even her breathing was trembling. Zheng Yan can no longer be equipped with a gun, so he always carries three or five knives with him.

"Lin Qing, I heard your voice." Mu Li's thin lips hooked slightly, and he couldn't hear the joy and anger in his voice, but his black eyes stared coldly at that dead corner.

He could almost stop to make sure there was someone, and two of them.

Zheng Yan knew that he couldn't take Lin Qing away this time, but he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity, he knew that with his strength, he couldn't go head-to-head with Mu Li.

Listening to Mu Li's footsteps getting closer and closer, Zheng Yan glanced back and saw that there was a small balcony at the end of the living room, and the window was ajar.

Lin Qing's neck was pressed against the tip of the cold knife, and there was a tendency to pierce from time to time.

Mu was so close, but she couldn't see him.

Lin Qing closed her eyes, feeling that the hand covering her mouth was loose, she suddenly opened her watery eyes, and turned her face away: "Mu Li, I'm here!" ”

Zheng Yan wanted to hold her down too late, and slashed heavily with the palm of her hand on the back of her neck, Lin Qing's body softened, and slowly fell down the cold wall.

He withdrew the knife and rushed to the end of the living room almost as soon as he turned the corner, jumping into the windowsill. He hunched over and hid behind the half-hidden curtains.

Hearing Lin Qing's voice, Mu Li strode over, he had never felt such heavy footsteps, and almost turned to the side wall with his breath.

"Lin Qing!" He breathed for a while, but saw Lin Qing fall to the ground softly, and the snow-white shawl on his shoulders was dyed gray by the dust all over the ground.

Lin Qing lost consciousness at this time and leaned to the side against the wall.

Mu Li rushed to her side, the palm holding her round shoulder was trembling, he probed her snort, and the tense nerves in his body relaxed a little.

Luckily, she's fine.

OK.

Mu Li hugged her tightly in his arms, wrapped one hand around her thin waist, and tightened her shoulders with the other, a very domineering and possessive posture, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.

He was afraid, he was really afraid.

The moment he saw Lin Qing fall to the ground, that pale little face was lifeless, and his heart was pulled hard.

He didn't know how much he regretted it, and he had never regretted it so much as he did now, leaving her trapped here and suffering that didn't belong to her.

Holding her arm and refusing to let go, Lin Qing never opened his eyes.

She was tired, and although Zheng Yan's attack was not too heavy, it made her no longer have the strength to wake up. Perhaps, it would be nice to sleep like this.

Perhaps, when she woke up again, she had escaped the nightmare, Mu Li was still her Mu Li, and nothing had changed.

Mu Li let her go and looked at her carefully through the faint night, that delicate little face had lost a lot of weight in a few days, a pair of eyes were closed, but the corners of the eyes were soaked with tears.

He couldn't imagine how scared she was, and how cold her heart hurt and cold when she heard what he said on the phone.

How she wished he could be by her side at that time, even if he only stretched out a hand, even if he didn't explain a word, even if he just looked at her.

But she waited so long and didn't wait.

At that moment, her heart was really cold.

But even so, she was still waiting.

The waits for him seem to be endless, she is always waiting for him, but waiting for the results that tear her heart apart one by one.

This time, it's still the case.

Lin Qing's head leaned against Mu Li's arms, as if he felt a familiar breath, and gently rubbed his chest twice.

Mu Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked down at her tightly, but he didn't expect that when he said goodbye, he was no longer the same as before.

He thought three days was a short time, but he didn't expect it to be so long.

Mu Li's slender fingers gently brushed her cold little face, and then carefully picked her up, these hands that didn't even shake the gun couldn't help but tremble a little at this time.

"Lin Qing, let's go home."

He was afraid that he would lose Lin Qing again in the next second, and every step under his feet was extremely fast.

Lin Qing seemed to snort in his arms, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, but his eyes never opened.

She must have had a nightmare, perhaps in which he had not yet come to save her.

Mu Li was about to turn around when he suddenly noticed something stopping, he quickly turned around, only to see a flying knife flying straight towards him, and the sharp tip of the knife shot a cold light in the night.

He could have dodged it, and he couldn't even reach out to block it. But he was holding Lin Qing in his arms at the moment, and he only paused for a moment before losing the best opportunity to dodge.

Mu Li half-turned around, and a cold light flashed through the smoke and dusty air.

He didn't even frown, and the knife stabbed into the back of his shoulder.

If he doesn't block it, it will be Lin Qing who will be injured.

"Commander Mu, have you forgotten something?" Zheng Yan was in the dark on the balcony, and with the help of the curtains, Mu Li didn't see his face.

"If you have something to say, I don't have time to spend here with you." There was a cold chill between Mu Li's eyebrows, the back of his shoulder was bleeding nonstop, and the knife was pierced very deeply, but fortunately, the knife itself was not long.

"I helped you save Mrs. Mu from those people, and the knife just now was even smoothed." Zheng Yan still didn't show up, and he looked back downstairs as he spoke.

Sure enough, there are people guarding down there.

"If you saved her, why did you want to harm her?" Mu Li was angry, Lin Qing was unconscious now, he was too lazy to care about the person hiding on the balcony.

It was so obvious that he could see it just now, and he couldn't ignore it if he wanted to.

"Hurt her? I don't. Zheng Yan's voice was a little more deliberate, he calculated the probability of escaping from here, obviously Mu Li would not let him leave easily, "Compared to what Commander Mu did, I obviously helped her, okay?" ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Mu Li turned around and looked at the balcony, his eyes cold and ruthless.

Zheng Yan came out of the darkness and stood on the balcony to stretch his figure very long by the night, and the face was shadowed and he couldn't see the face.

"Since three years ago, I have sworn to kill you, Mu Li." Zheng Yan bit hatred at every word, and anger set off in his eyes, "I want you to taste what is called the pain of life is better than death." ”

"It's better to live than to die?" The corners of Mu Li's lips were hooked, and he looked at the person in his arms and couldn't help but soften his eyes.

But what made him care was another sentence from Zheng Yan's mouth.

Three years ago?

Mu Li unexpectedly thought of the accident three years ago.

"Who are you?"

Zheng Yan's facet that has undergone plastic surgery can't find flaws, but he has no emotion: "Aren't you very powerful?" Isn't it possible to cover the sky with one hand in City A? Why can't you even guess who I am? ”

Zheng Yan sneered, and moved his hand behind his back in the night, and a small knife emitted a cold light, exuding a heavy and cold metallic feeling.

Mu Li's eyebrows were cold, and he had already guessed a few points in his heart, but that person was still alive?

At that time, the explosion happened suddenly, and all the evidence pointed to an accident, and the Liang family easily got away from that incident. There were too many injured people after the incident, and they recovered all the injured, only to find that one person was missing on the way.

Mu Li immediately personally led people back to the scene, but suddenly there was a second explosion, and when they went to look for it again, they couldn't find the slightest trace.

Mu Li led people to sleep for three days and three nights in a row, and even searched the cliff not far from the explosion several times without missing a beat, but even the corpse of ** was not found.

He was disappointed, and at that time all of them thought, ** is dead.

Although he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, Mu Li felt more and more familiar as he listened to the voice. Could it really be him?

Zheng Yan took advantage of the moment he was distracted, and flew the knife out as soon as he made a move, Mu Li couldn't dodge, and when he avoided it, his arm was unstable, and Lin Qing fell.

Mu Li cursed in a low voice, but saw a figure flickering on the balcony a few meters away, and in the next moment, Zheng Yan snatched Lin Qing from his hand and took the already unconscious woman into his arms.

"Let her go." Mu Li's eyes were cold, they were very close, and this time Mu Li saw Zheng Yan's face clearly.

It wasn't the face he knew.

"What's the matter, after changing your face, Commander Mu doesn't know him?" The movement of Zheng Yan's hand attracted Mu Li's attention.

Mu Li's eyebrows tightened suddenly, and his gaze fell on the knife in Zheng Yan's hand against Lin Qing.

"What the hell do you want?"

Zheng Yan could see that he was nervous.

The man who had always been so calm and calm that his breathing was obviously heavy at this time.

Lin Qing was still unconscious, and the sharp tip of the knife was against her slender neck, slashing shallowly across her soft skin.

"I said it, I just want to give you all the pain at that time." Zheng Yan's eyes were dark and obscure, if Lin Qing died, Mu Li would definitely be worse than dead.

Mu Li's black eyes became more and more gloomy, and every word was like falling into an ice pool: "The explosion at that time was not an accident, it was the people of the Liang family who did it." ”

"I don't care if it's an accident or not!" Zheng Yan suddenly raised his voice, glaring at Mu Li fiercely with a pair of eyes, "What I hate is that I was already going to die by myself at that time, but it was so worthless to die!" Do you know what it's like to be abandoned? Where are you when I'm covered in blood and watching your car get farther and farther away, but I can't even make a sound! ”

His voice trembled, as if he wanted to vent all the pain of the past three years, and the knife against Lin Qing's neck kept shaking.

Mu Li's eyes narrowed coldly, and he pulled out a sharp arc: "Let go of her, if you want to retaliate, you can rush at me." ”
