we are all idiots

Chapter 8 Escape

That night, Qi Jun cooked a sumptuous dinner and opened a bottle of red wine to welcome Lu Qiulin into his home.

Lu Qiulin was not very interested in this meal, because he couldn't respond to Qi Jun. If possible, he wanted to make it clear to Qi Jun, but after all, he still had to live in his house for a while. It would be embarrassing, and he wanted to wait.

"I have hidden this wine for several years," Qi Jun helped him pour the wine, "I just want to drink it with you."

Lu Qiulin picked up the wine glass and shook it lightly, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and said, "Good wine."

"Try it." Qi Jun looked at him expectantly.

Lu Qiulin took a sip and nodded.

Seeing that he was satisfied, Qi Jun was relieved, and put a spare rib on the plate in front of him, "Eat vegetables."

Lu Qiulin picked up the ribs and put them in his mouth, "The craftsmanship is still so good."

"It's a step back, I haven't made it for a long time," Qi Jun said, "I don't know who to make it for."

Lu Qiulin was silent for a while, took a sip of wine, and said, "Qi Jun, I..."

"Qiu Lin," Qi Jun interrupted him, "let's eat, and go to bed early after eating."

Lu Qiulin secretly sighed, "Okay."

After dinner, Qi Jun cleaned up the dishes, and Lu Qiulin went back to his room and changed into a black hooded sportswear to go out.

"I'm going out for a walk," Lu Qiulin walked to the kitchen door and said, "Is there an extra key for me?"

Qi Jun looked at his attire, "Running? Why don't you wait for me?"

"I want to go around by myself," Lu Qiulin said, "think about something."

After Lu Qiulin said that, Qi Jun couldn't force it, and said: "There is a spare key in the second drawer of the shoe cabinet at the door, you can take it yourself."

"Thanks." Lu Qiulin found the key and opened the door to go out.

After going downstairs, Lu Qiulin took a taxi directly to the entrance of the community of his own house. After getting off the car, he took out a black mask from his pocket and put it on, then put the hat on his head to expose only his eyes.

After being armed, he entered the community and went straight to the unit building where his house was located.

The location of the house is good. He inquired about it. In the few years since he left society, the value of the house has more than doubled, and there is still a rising trend.

It's not that he never thought about selling the house. According to the current market situation, with this money, he can do whatever he wants, but according to Song Wei, the house was transferred to his own name by Qin Lei. If he wanted a house, he had to go to Qin Lei.

And since Qin Lei took his house away, he definitely didn't plan to return it to him. He didn't want to have anything to do with this person, so he had to give up the house temporarily and figure out a way later.

Standing downstairs in the unit, Lu Qiulin looked up, the house was on the third floor, and the windows were pitch black at this moment, just like the previous few days.

Looks like no one lives there.

He didn't dare to go up a few days ago, but today he decided to go up and have a look.

Lu Qiulin touched the key in his pocket, walked into the corridor, pressed the up button of the elevator, the elevator door opened, and he walked in.

The third floor went up quickly, but in just a few seconds, Lu Qiulin was so nervous that his heart jumped out.

There are two households on the first floor, which are on both sides of the elevator. Lu Qiulin walked to the right side familiarly, stood at the corner and waited for a while. He pulled the brim of his hat, walked over with his head down, and took out the key to open the door. .

Fortunately, the door lock was not changed.

The door opened easily, Lu Qiulin frowned, why didn't this guy Qin Lei lock the door, dare you not know how to cherish things that come easily, right?

Looking at the door that was only slightly opened, Lu Qiulin felt guilty for no reason. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, pushed the door open and entered.

In order not to attract attention, he turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone instead of turning on the light.

The room was not full of dust as he had imagined. On the contrary, it was very clean, as if people had always lived there, and there was even a faint familiar smell in the air.But all the furnishings were exactly the same as before he left, even the position of the ashtray on the coffee table remained the same.

Lu Qiulin frowned more and more, countless questions flashed through his mind, but he couldn't get an answer.

If he can't figure it out, he just doesn't think about it, Lu Qiulin hasn't forgotten the purpose of his visit today, and went straight to the bedroom.

The bedroom was also very clean. The bed was covered with quilts and sheets, and the quilts were neatly folded. Lu Qiulin's fingers ran across the sheets, and it was clean without any dust.

Lu Qiulin was stunned. Someone clearly lived in this house.

who is it?

Who lives in his house?

Qin Lei?

No, not possible!

Qin Lei doesn't like him, how could he still live in his house?

Who else is it not Qin Lei?Did that kid rent out his house?

It is possible.

If so, is his stuff still there?

Lu Qiulin was startled, and hastily opened the small cabinet under the desk.

There used to be a small safe in the small cabinet, which contained many important things for him, and a password was required to open it.

Fortunately, the small safe was sitting in the cupboard intact.

Lu Qiulin heaved a sigh of relief, and entered the password to open the safe. The things were still there, and nothing was missing.

He picked and picked, took all the useful ones away, and kept the useless ones. After the selection, he closed the safe and was about to leave with the things when the door opened.

Lu Qiulin was shocked, the first thing he thought of was, the renter came back?

He quickly turned off the flashlight and ran directly to the balcony of the room without thinking.

He has lived in this house for nearly two years, and he is very clear about the layout and furnishings inside. He knows that there is no place to hide people except the balcony.

The balcony door was not locked, so it could be opened directly, which saved him a lot of time, but the slightly rusty sliding door made a moderate sound the moment it was opened, which shocked him.

He wasn't sure if the person who had already opened the door and entered the room heard the sound, he couldn't care less about anything.

He leaned over the railing and quickly glanced down, his heart skipped a beat, and he raised his legs and stepped out.

The house is on the third floor, and a row of aluminum alloy anti-theft nets protruding from the wall are installed outside the window sills on the second floor. The building is not high, so you can step on it without much effort.

But it is not so easy to reach the ground from the second floor, and there are people in the room on the second floor at this time.

But he couldn't care less.

Because the moment he stepped out of the balcony, he suddenly thought, if the house is really rented out to someone else, how could the furnishings in the room remain unchanged?

Then the biggest possibility is that the person living in this house is Qin Lei himself.

If this is the case, then the only one who opened the door and entered the room at this time can only be Qin Lei!

This realization shocked him, he only had one thought now, he must never see Qin Lei!So must, run away!

Lu Qiulin made a noise when he stepped on the anti-theft window, and then voices and footsteps came from the room on the second floor, and footsteps also came from the room on the third floor.

That's too late!

Lu Qiulin took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and jumped down.

When Qin Lei opened the door and entered the room, he felt something was wrong. There was a familiar yet unfamiliar smell in the air. He turned on the light and looked around, but there was nothing abnormal.

Suddenly, there was a sound in the room, and he rushed in without thinking, and the balcony door was half opened.

He subconsciously glanced at the cabinet under the desk, and the door was already open.

Qin Lei rushed to the balcony. Downstairs, a figure climbed up from the lawn with his hands propped up, and disappeared into the shadows with a limp.

He didn't need to identify him, he could already tell who the figure was with just one glance.

"Lu, Qiu, Lin!" Qin Lei gritted his teeth and thumped the railing hard, his eyes were scarlet.

The building is not high, and there is a particularly soft lawn at the bottom. When Lu Qiulin jumped down, he used his inertia to roll on the ground. Even so, he still sprained his foot, but it was much better than he imagined.

After all, at the age of 34, if you break your leg, you will not be able to run away, and you will have to suffer.

He picked a shaded place all the way, and ran out of the community with his injured leg. He walked a few hundred meters to the side, and then took out his mobile phone and called Song Wei, "Come and pick me up."

"Where is it?" Song Wei asked, "Why are you panting like this?"

"Don't ask, it's at my old house, hurry up." Lu Qiulin said.

"Damn, you won't act alone, right?" There was a noisy voice on the phone, there were footsteps, and the sound of the door opening and closing, "Wait, I'll be right there!"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Qiulin slid against the wall and sat on the ground. He sat in this position for a long time before wiping his face with a wry smile.

You really look like a bereaved dog, Lu Qiulin, a 34-year-old bereaved dog, you are so fucking ridiculous!

After sitting for a while, he suddenly remembered something. He took out the things in his arms and looked at them. After making sure that nothing was lost, he breathed out and continued to lean against the wall to wait for Song Wei.

When Song Wei arrived, he saw such a pitiful look.

"Did you really act on your own?" Song Wei looked at him incredulously, "Go in?"

"Ah," Lu Qiulin stretched out his hand to him, "Give me a hand."

Song Wei pulled him up from the ground, "What's the matter? Are you injured?"

"I sprained my ankle." Lu Qiulin jumped towards the car with one leg on his shoulder.

"What happened?" Song Wei asked.

"I jumped off the stairs." Lu Qiulin said casually.

"Fuck! You fucking..." Song Wei didn't know what to say anymore, he gritted his teeth, "Did you fucking die? Can you get away from me if you don't die?"

"Okay, I have a sense of proportion," Lu Qiulin said, "Isn't it all right, and I got the things."

Lu Qiulin sat in the car while talking, Song Wei slammed the door, went to the driver's seat and sat in, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the middle shelf, put it in his mouth and lit it, smoked half of it Only then said: "How was it discovered? Isn't that house unoccupied?"

Lu Qiulin also took one out of the cigarette case and lit it.

"Didn't you quit?" Song Wei looked at him and asked.

Lu Qiulin looked out the window, smoked twice, and said, "Qin Lei is still living."

"Fuck!" Song Wei thumped the steering wheel hard, "Fuck Qin Lei! What is that boy thinking? Is he short of a house? Which one of his houses is not better than this one? What is this? Miss you His past? It's so fucking ridiculous! If he had any conscience, he wouldn't have sent you in! Fuck don't let me see him again, let me see him again, I'll beat him up Damn it! Damn it!"

Song Wei punched the steering wheel a few more times as if venting, but was stopped by Lu Qiulin: "Okay, let's go, my foot hurts, go buy some medicine."

"Damn it!" Song Wei spat again before starting the car.
