    Chapter 146 Edmund Dantes (17)

    It's normal for an adult to not remember things before he was ten years old. For example, Luo Wenzhou always insisted that "he occupied a coal pile with a toy gun when he was a child" was made up by Comrade Mu Xiaoqing to slander him— - But what's not normal is that Fei Du remembers the details before and after clearly, including the tone of Fei Chengyu's speech, why did he forget this paragraph alone?

    But Fei Du's condition was obviously not suitable for further questioning, so Luo Wenzhou had to calm down for the time being, checked his temperature, and suspected that he had caught a cold just because of too much trouble. However, the real-time thermometer showed that the temperature in the floor heating room was close to 27°, and it would not be cool to wear short sleeves. Luo Wenzhou couldn't understand it, and in the end he had to put it down to one reason—Fei Du might be a tropical fish.

    Maybe it was because his body was too tired. Fei Du, who was always too active, didn't want to stay in his still body, wandering aimlessly in his sleep.

    He first dreamed that he seemed to have taken out a can of cat food, but forgot to open the pot. Then he dreamed that Luo Wenzhou was not happy for some reason, groaning and ignoring him; finally, he seemed to return to Tao Ran and was pushed That day in the hospital—strange to say, in the real world, when Fei Du and Luo Wenzhou arrived, Tao Ran had already been pushed into the emergency room, and they didn’t give a quick look until he was pushed into the ward after his condition stabilized.

    But in the chaotic dream, Fei Du felt as if he saw Tao Ran covered in blood, and his bones were squeezed out of his body with broken bones. The stunned look on the verge of death.

    Fei Du opened his eyes suddenly and woke up with a start.

    His eyelids were a little heavy, but just the moment he opened his eyes, his chaotic thoughts immediately returned to the cage in a disciplined manner. Fei Du frowned as he recalled his chaotic dream, feeling that something was amiss, because Tao Ran's injury was caused by a car crash. Come out, then why did you put a suffocated face on him in your dream?

    It doesn't seem very logical.

    But even Hawking probably couldn't ask himself to be logical in his dreams. This question flashed through Fei Du's mind, and then he felt a little uncomfortable, and he felt aching feeling like he had been in one position for too long. Fei Du gently removed Luo Wenzhou's tightly gripped hand, and turned over, but the usual soft and comfortable cushion seemed to suddenly become a cement board. No matter how he turned it, he felt like a bone. The pressure made him a little breathless, and he couldn't find a comfortable position anyway.

    Just as Fei Du turned over for the third time with great restraint, Luo Wenzhou, who was usually unmoved by thunder, suddenly turned on his headlamp: "What's wrong?"

    Fei Du was too lazy to speak, buried most of his face on the pillow to avoid the light, and shook his head at him.

    Luo Wenzhou stretched out his hand to touch it, and sat up abruptly.

    Fei Du half-opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Luo Wenzhou rushing out to find antipyretics.

    When Luo Wenzhou used to live by himself, most of the things he used most were safflower oil and Yunnan Baiyao. He saved a dozen of band-aids and iodine, and the rest were basically expired medicines. Still unwilling to stop, I got a box of unopened cans from nowhere, planed and bit on the ground, and slammed the can box into a "ding" sound.

    Luo Wenzhou "shush" it, and reprimanded in a low voice, "I'll shut you up on the balcony if you make trouble again!"

    Luo Yiguo stepped on the can and stared at him indomitably, with the intention of fighting him to the end.

    Luo Wenzhou didn't bother to pay attention to it, so he finally found a box of antipyretics, read the instructions and production date at a glance, and found that it had not expired, so he quickly took it in and gave it to Fei Du.

    While letting Fei Du take the pills with his hand, he couldn't help but want to sigh: "Mr. Fei, let's discuss, can we start from tomorrow and go out for a little exercise every day and have a healthy routine?"

    Fei Du didn't have the strength to be rude to him, he just said vaguely, "Tomorrow will be fine."

    He reluctantly drank half a glass of water, shoved the glass away, patted Luo Wenzhou twice on the back of his hand to express his thanks, and then curled up and didn't move. Fei Du was usually very good at being a demon, but after learning that he was ill, he became honest. immune system.

    Luo Wenzhou watched anxiously for a while, and found that the patient was completely able to take care of himself, and there was no problem with lifting the quilt. Suddenly, he touched his hair with some distress: "Who took care of you when you were sick before?"

    Fei Du wanted to say, "Small illnesses don't matter, serious illnesses go to the hospital", but in reality he just moved his lips and didn't say it. The hypnotic effect of the antipyretic medicine was overwhelming, and Luo Wenzhou's voice seemed to be separated by a layer, and it became more and more intense. The distance soon turned into a haze. Fei Du took this sentence before he had time to answer, and was dragged into sleep by the medication, and the restless question escaped from his consciousness and plunged into his dream.

    He dreamed of the bedroom he lived in when he was a child—the entire villa was decorated according to Fei Chengyu’s preferences, as were the women’s and children’s rooms. There was nothing left of the air pressure, and it was cold everywhere... The only good thing is that the window faces south, and the lighting is good.

    Fei Du vaguely remembered that once when he leaned on his head and covered most of his body under the sun, he was forced to lie down because of a sudden cold and fever.

    While Fei Chengyu was not at home, he secretly dug out the small note in his pencil case.

    There are three strings of passwords on the note—there are two such things as trespassing in the forbidden area. Fei Du spent nearly half a year observing everything about Fei Chengyu quietly every day, and quietly collected the fees in his daily life. For other passwords used by Chengyu, made a simple summary and statistics of the coding rules, analyzed several rules, and tried to infer the password of the basement.

    He had no chance of trial and error, because if he entered the wrong password, the police would be called. No matter where Fei Chengyu was, he would immediately receive a notification. Fei Du finally locked three password combinations that Fei Chengyu might use, but which one of the three he was really unsure about.

    At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and Fei Du hurriedly stuffed this small "rebellious" note back into his pencil case, and his mother came in with a cold granule.

    She gently replaced the hot towel on his forehead, and wiped him with a towel soaked in cold water. The whole process was like a robot, doing everything in a thoughtful and orderly manner, but she refused to have anything with him. They looked at each other, as if extra touch would bring disaster to them.

    Fei Du wanted to call her "Mom", but the words got stuck in his throat, and he just opened his mouth.

    The woman wiped his body carefully, looking a little better than the dead energy in the past, and even walking a little briskly. Xiao Fei Du wanted to have a word with her, but he didn't know where to start. Seeing that she was leaving again, he hurriedly Extending his arms to reach her. The unzippered pencil case on his lap fell down, and the note full of passwords slipped out.

    The air seemed to freeze.

    After a while, the woman bent over to pick up the pencil case, picked up the small note, and Fei Du subconsciously held his breath. The woman finally looked up at him, her eyes were so complicated that the boy couldn't tell what she meant, and tightened the quilt nervously.

    Will she tell Fei Chengyu? Will you suddenly go crazy?

    Just as his anxiety continued to rise, the woman didn't seem to understand, she stuffed the note back into the pencil case as if nothing had happened, put it back on his lap gently, kissed him on the top of the head again, and turned away.

    After the door rang, Fei Du hesitated to open his note full of passwords, and saw a fingernail print under one of the passwords.

    Three days later, after learning that Fei Chengyu had gone out of town, he used this string of codes to open the heavy door in the basement. The basement is like a forbidden area. The stairs are narrow and winding, and the head can't be seen from above. The dim wall lamp is flickering with dim lights, and the ferocious group of dragons on the wall paper opens their mouths. The monster, Sen Ran opened his mouth wide.

    In the dream, Fei Du always felt that his mother was watching from the second floor as he walked down step by step. , he hesitantly approached the desk, where he saw a stack of printed papers.

    The next dream suddenly became chaotic, the ink marks on the paper suddenly expanded, and bloodstains spread out from the paper. Then, the space he was in was about to collapse, and the ceiling and the floor shattered together. The sound of broken glass, the sound of terrifying footsteps and the screams of women, the suffocation suddenly hit him, making him breathless, and at the same time, it seemed that a man said in his ear, "My picture album project can also be started. "…

    Fei Du sat up abruptly in a cold sweat, and then felt the world spinning again, fell back, and was hugged by Luo Wenzhou.

    "Don't lift the quilt yet." Luo Wenzhou dragged him back, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and felt very relieved that the temperature had indeed dropped, so he gently kissed his temple, "Have you had a nightmare? It is true that medicine is easy to have nightmares, I have been waiting here for you to drop in your arms and wait for a night, come to me for comfort."

    Fei Du's violent tinnitus subsided, he hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "It's not a nightmare, it's just some wonderful festivals."

    Luo Wenzhou: "...A wonderful qíng festival? Like taking a train to the sky?"

    Talking to the patient early in the morning was too limitless, Fei Du gave him a slap with his elbow without a word.

    "For example, I cracked Fei Chengyu's password once by xing, but it was actually because of my mother's reminder." Fei Du said, "Also... Fei Chengyu seems to have said something about 'my picture album plan' to someone... "

    Luo Wenzhou paused: "You don't remember how you opened that password door?"

    "Remember, I remember that I summed up a few possibilities, and then tried it. Fortunately, the first password I tried passed..." Fei Du's voice suddenly stopped, and he felt a violation. , He deduced his own mental state as a child from the perspective of a bystander, thinking that he did not dare to risk angering Fei Chengyu no matter what, and rashly tried with a bunch of completely uncertain passwords.

    So it was really the mother who gave him the hint at that time?

    Why doesn't he remember at all?

    Luo Wenzhou stretched out his hand to cover his eyes: "Sleep a little longer, and then I'll be hurt again when I get better."

    After Fei Du was settled down, Luo Wenzhou quietly got up, warmed up his breakfast and put it in the insulated lunch box, left a note, and went to the archives room by himself. The file adjustment required formal procedures, especially for some archives that were sealed, but it was very difficult right now. During the period, he could not find anyone who could sign the paper after going through the formalities. The administrator smoked countless packs of good cigarettes and let him go with one eye closed.

    Luo Wenzhou searched around, and sure enough, he couldn't find anything of value. The "Painting Album Project" was only a thin booklet, which contained some very scene introductions, as well as a few non-painful and non-itchy articles that seemed to be completely Copying and pasting the rushed papers everywhere, the leader of the album project was Fan Siyuan, a professor at Yan Gong University at that time, but in the final papers, neither the author nor the advisor had his signature.

    The content of Fan Siyuan's personal file is also pitiful. It simply includes his work experience and published papers. It ended abruptly thirteen years ago, and the death record is very strange. It was ten years ago - Lao Yang is obscure He had mentioned that this person was dead, and Luo Wenzhou had always thought that he committed suicide in fear of committing a crime or had an accident on the way to arrest after the incident of the Picture Album Project.

    It was early in the morning that the administrator and Luo Wenzhou squatted on the toilet after a word, and Luo Wenzhou took the opportunity to quickly make a copy of all the files that had been researched and included in the first picture album project, and he was a skilled thief.

    Before leaving, his eyes stopped for a moment on Fan Siyuan's work experience, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind——

    By the way, Bureau Lu said that after Gu Zhao went to work, he once went to Yan Gong University to study as an on-the-job graduate student!

    At the same time, Xiao Haiyang rushed to the drug rehab center early in the morning. The drug rehab center didn't come as soon as he said it was in People's Park. He waited restlessly for a long time before finally seeing Ma Xiaowei. Xiao Haiyang secretly breathed a sigh of relief—there were too many accidents during this time, and he was afraid that he had just found a clue and was told that Ma Xiaowei had also been silenced.

    Ma Xiaowei is a little fatter than before, and he no longer looks like a drug addict, but his mental state is a little sluggish, and the sluggishness disappeared the moment he saw Xiao Haiyang, and his whole body became tense.
