Yu Chu wanted to open his eyes, but he felt that his eyelids were heavy and he couldn't open them. Half of his body seemed to be lit by a fire, which made his internal organs uncomfortable, but the other half was immersed in ice water, piercing coldly into the cracks of his bones.

In the haze, he felt that he was back in a icy night when he was a child. He and the little children of Po were huddled in the concrete pipe, roasting a bunch of the big children from nowhere firewood.

It was snowing all over the place, and the concrete pipe wall behind them was very cold, so cold that they kept approaching the fire. The result was too close, my hair and eyelashes were burned, and a few burning blisters appeared on my hands.

He felt that there was another firewood in front of him, but the back against the cement pipe wall was cold to the bone, he tried his best to open his mouth, trying to remind Bao to stay away from the fire Point, but lips seemed to stick together, and only a few words came out with all their might.

"Treasure...fire...farther...hot..."

He heard intermittent voices, as indistinct as through deep water, but it was not Po's voice.

"What is he talking about?"

"...It seems to say that I feel very hot."

"Fever-reducing needles...will cool down after a while...choked water...a little infection in the lungs."

After Yu Chu moved his lips and uttered a few words silently, he finally fell into an unconscious drowsiness.

When he woke up, he found that the sky was already bright, and the sun shined through the gaps in the curtains, casting mottled light and shadow on the ground. He was lying on the hospital bed, wearing a hospital gown, with an infusion set attached to his arm, only a little liquid left in the bag, slowly dripping from the transparent thin tube.

Footsteps came from the door, the door of the ward was pushed open, and a nurse stood at the door and said in surprise: "Are you awake?"

Yu Chu nodded.

Hearing the movement, an indoor door connected to the ward was suddenly opened, and the baby-faced policeman named Li Siming, whom he had seen on the boat, came out of the bathroom.

The nurse walked to the bedside, looked at the needle hole on the back of Xia Yuchu's hand, took off the empty medicine bottle hanging on the infusion stand, and said gently, "I'll notify the doctor to come to you Check, you just woke up from a coma, don't sit up, lie down and rest, be obedient."

She is not very old, she is three or four years older than Yu Chu, but her tone is like coaxing a child, and even her eyes are a little kind. Yu Chu turned his face away a little uncomfortably, and gave a stiff hum.

After the nurse left, Li Siming asked, "How is it? Do you feel better?"

"Well, it's better." Yu Chu's voice was still a little hoarse when he spoke, and his chest was also pulled with a dull pain.

Li Siming poured a glass of water and handed it to him: "You just choked on the water when you fell into the water, and your lungs are a little infected. Just infuse the liquid for a few days."

Yu Chu took the water and wanted to ask him where Xie Xingmu was, but he moved his lips a few times but still no sound came out. Li Siming seemed to see what he was thinking, and took the initiative to say: "Team Xie is very busy these days and has to hear the case. I took time to call you twice in the middle, and let me take good care of you."

"Yes." Yu Chu added, "Thank you."

He will spend the next few days in this ward, lying in bed watching TV every day after the infusion, finishing the latest episode of the show, and quickly changing the channel to watch another A show with a full schedule.

Li Siming also loves watching dramas. The two watch them together, and they also talk about the plot seriously. In just three days, they have watched dozens of episodes of a Korean mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama.

Sometimes he would temporarily change shifts with other police officers. When he came back, the first thing he said was to ask Yu Chu: "Where did the show go? Tell me, her mother-in-law and the old man in the gym are getting better. No?"

Yu Chu behaved very cooperatively, never asked to leave the ward, just stayed on the bed, did not ask what happened to the group of people in Xingyuan Island, and didn't even slap on the side. It doesn't matter if his father is dead or alive. Eat when it's time to eat, sleep when it's time to sleep, and the cheeks that have been emaciated because of this illness are bulging back.

Only occasionally asked Xie Xingmu's news, Li Siming said, "Xie team is very busy, but he called me today to ask about you."

Yu Chu smiled obediently, and did not continue to ask.

When his pneumonia was almost better, he was discharged from the hospital and followed Li Siming back to the Criminal Investigation Brigade.

As soon as Yu Chu stepped into the office of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, his eyes quickly swept around. There were already many people in the office, all busy, and he didn't see Xie Xingmu among them.

However, the intern policewoman named Jiang Shasha saw him immediately, got up to meet the door and asked, "Yu Chu, are you all healed?"

Yu Chu blinked and smiled, "Much better."

When he laughed, there would be a shallow dimple on his cheek, Jiang Shasha looked at him with bright eyes, and suddenly said: "Team Xie is asking you every day and caring about you very much."

"Yeah." Yu Chu didn't know why she said that suddenly, but her heart skipped a beat because of this sentence.

Li Siming took Yu Chu to the interrogation room and left, leaving him alone in the empty room. Sitting on the single chair in the center of the room, he began to look around, and paused for a few seconds when his eyes fell on the single-sided glass on the left wall.

Soon two strange policemen came in, sitting behind the long table opposite him, looking down at the materials and starting to ask questions.

"Name."

"Yu Chu."

"Age."

"Twenty soon."

"Be specific."

"February 18th is my birthday."

Yu Chu had written down all the experience of the original body early, and engraved it in his heart, and the answer was very natural.

A policeman looked up at him: "Who is Yu Shiqing?"

"It's my biological father." Yu Chu said.

When the police heard this, their faces remained calm and continued to ask, "How is your relationship with your father?"

"Not much."

"You lived with your mother in Haiyun City before you were ten years old, and moved seven times during that time. After you were ten years old, your mother Zheng Shan died, and you were picked up by your father Yu Shiqing Xingyuan Island lived in Yujiabao, and has lived until now. Is it correct?"

Yu Chu thought for a few seconds: "That's right."

"Then do you know your father's usual business dealings and what he does in private?" the policeman asked.

Yu Chu said: "I know a little bit. Occasionally, uncles and uncles come to the island to look for him. As for what he did in private, I don't know."

"Then do you know that he is engaged in illegal and criminal activities behind his back?" the policeman asked in a deep voice.

Yu Chu: "I don't know, he won't tell me these things."

"Have you been involved in his criminal activities?"

"No."

The police asked: "Who are the people who committed the crime with him? Explain everything you know, and no clue can be concealed."

Yu Chu's pupils tightened slightly, and he instantly captured the information reflected in this sentence: although they could convict Yu Shiqing, they failed to get the deeper things behind.

His mind quickly turned, but he replied: "I only know of a man named Abang who came from Myanmar to Xingyuan Island to trade with him."

"How did you know?" The expressions of the two policemen were not surprised at all. Yu Chu understood that they already knew everything that happened on the cliff from Xie Xingmu.

"I overheard the conversation between the man named Abang and my father—with Yu Shiqing, knowing that they were going to the heartbroken cliff on the night of Yu Shiqing's birthday banquet, I was curious, so I secretly Run and see, behind...behind..."

Yu Chu's voice was getting lower and lower, and his head was lowered with sadness on his face, and two small wet water spots suddenly appeared on the dark trouser legs illuminated by the bright headlights.

The two policemen gave him time to calm down. Instead of continuing the interrogation, they just flipped through the folder in front of him and talked in a low voice.

Behind the single-sided glass, Xie Xingmu and a dignified middle-aged man stood there, looking at Yu Chu in the interrogation room.

"Did he pretend?" asked the middle-aged man with a frosty face.

Xie Xingmu said, "It's hard to say."

"What does it mean? Is it fake?" The middle-aged man turned to look at Xie Xingmu this time.

Xie Xingmu raised his hand to touch the angular chin, a thick beard had grown on it, and said, "The demeanor is fake, but the content is not necessarily fake, he knows Maybe that's all. After all, because of the key, Yu Shiqing is not close to him, and can even be said to be cold."

In the interrogation room, Yu Chu continued to answer the interrogation.

"...He probably likes Yu Feng, after all, I've let him down too much. I'm too timid, and I won't go to the shipyard to manage his business for him. I also want to get my father's love, but... In the end, it's my fault." Yu Chu's voice trembled slightly, and everyone could hear the cry and the sadness in his tone.

The middle-aged man standing behind the single-sided glass was touched somehow, lowered his head, and pressed his hand between his eyebrows. Xie Xingmu leaned slightly towards him and whispered: "Lin Ju, pretend, he doesn't like his father more than his father doesn't like him, it's different from yours."

Lin Ju coughed twice and put down his hand as if nothing had happened.

Yu Chu raised his head and looked at the two policemen behind the long table, pursed his lips and said, "So I really don't know..."

Perhaps because of the initial recovery from pneumonia, or the pain of Yu Shiqing's arrest, under the light, his face was unhealthy pale, and his lips were chapped. It's a little pathetic.

The policeman who asked the question softened his voice: "Just say what you know."

Bureau Lin was watching Yu Chu in the interrogation room intently, when Xie Xingmu beside him suddenly turned and walked towards the door. Lin Bureau asked, "Where to go?"

"Go get some water, I'm a little thirsty, would you like a drink?"

Lin Bureau picked up the tea jar on the small table: "No, I'll take it with me."

"Hmm."

The little policeman had just started working not long ago. Although he had heard the name of the criminal investigation team leader for a long time, he was still stunned: "Send it to the interrogation room, this is not good."

Xie Xingmu slapped a note on his head: "If I tell you to go, what are you talking about?"

"...Yes." The little policeman covered his head and ran to the pantry.

"Put some tea leaves in that cup, and have good tea."

"Got it."

"Amnesia?" The policeman who asked the question and the policeman who was in charge of recording looked at each other.

Yu Chu nodded: "I know this sounds funny, it's like an excuse I made, but I really lost my memory."

The policeman couldn't help laughing: "You mean you don't know the whereabouts of that key at all?"

"I don't even remember that I have a key." Yu Chu said a little aggrievedly: "You can ask Xie Xingmu about this, he is very clear. And I am a victim, Yu Shiqing originally thought Kill me, but luckily Xie Xingmu saved me, you can ask him about this."

As soon as Xie Xingmu opened the door, the forest bureau behind the single-sided glass turned his head and said, "He's pretending again, he looks like an honest kid, why can't he tell the truth? "

"What?"

"He said he lost his memory." Lin Ju put the tea jar in his hand back on the small table, shook his head and said, "I still have amnesia this year, so I just watched it with my wife. It's the same as the TV series. Since he wants to say that, let's take it to the hospital for a checkup."

"I have asked the hospital to conduct a general examination of him and found no problems."

The Bureau of Forestry asked: "There is no tumor in the brain, is it oppressing the cranial nerve or something?"

"No." Xie Xingmu walked up to him, put his arms around his chest, and said in a secretive tone, "But about the memory loss, maybe he really wasn't pretending."

Lin Ju turned his head to look at him, and after a while said, "Are you also watching the TV series my wife is chasing?"

After Yu Chu said that he lost his memory, the two policemen turned over the documents at hand.

Knock knock knock.

The door to the interrogation room was knocked open, and a policeman stood tremblingly at the door with a cup of hot tea.

"I'm sorry, excuse me, I'll bring him a glass of water." The little policeman brought the disposable water cup to the small table in front of Yu Chu and put it down.

Yu Chu took the water and nodded politely: "Thank you."

"No, you're welcome." The little policeman quickly dodged out the door.

Yu Chu put the water cup to his mouth, the steaming heat overflowed into his nose with the aroma of tea, the water was very hot, he blew lightly twice, and then took a sip carefully, the tea was smooth Slowly running down his throat, he felt a warm iron on his stomach.

He put down the teacup and turned his eyes to the single-sided glass on the left wall. Xie Xingmu was also drinking from the water cup, and his eyes met him through the top of the cup rim.

Yu Chu suddenly curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, a shallow dimple floating on his cheeks, Xie Xingmu almost thought he could see himself if he hadn't known that it was a single-sided glass.
