Chapter 1261 Estrangement and... Overturn
Yidong is one of Mo Tan’s best friends, although the latter likes to tease his gay friend A very much, causing him far more troubles than helping him The number of troubles he solves is much greater, but no one will question the friendship between the two. In fact, if they were not two men with normal orientation, I am afraid that all the emotional scenes in this story could be dismissed. Deleted.
Fortunately, they are all men and they are all heterosexual.
Yidong understood every personality of Mo Tan, and even... yes, he even vaguely noticed a side that was outside the three mental states of his good friend, but at that time The two of them were still too young, and when they met again, Mo Tan only had three styles of painting left.
As Mo Tan's best friend, he always spared no effort to help each other. Although the two barely exchanged money in terms of money at the latter's insistence, everyone had to Admit it, these two guys literally grew up wearing the same pants.
Of course, this is nonsense. After all, Yi Dong is much taller than Mo Tan, so it is impossible for them to wear the same pants.
In short, whether it is the past, present or future, if there is only one person that Mo Tan can trust unconditionally, then this person can only be Yi Dong. Excluding jokes, complaints and teasing, there has never been a relationship between them. There has never been a true lie, even a white lie.
As of now, if anything can make Mo Tan, who is under the 'Chaotic Neutral' personality, give up the fun at hand, Mo Tan, who is under the 'Lawful Good' personality, will not hesitate. To commit a crime and let Mo Tan, who is in a state of 'absolute neutrality', willingly stand in the spotlight, that person will most likely be Yi Dong.
Similarly, in order to protect Mo Tan's personal safety, Yi Dong can also make any deviant behavior. If necessary, he will even disobey his own parents.
“The worst possibility is that we both run away together.”
Every time when the topic of 'mental illness exposure' comes up (Mo Tan is mostly under the 'Absolute Neutral' personality), Yidong will always say to Mo Tan in an impatient tone: "Although I'm not as capable as you, brother, but After all, I follow the elite route, and I will never starve to death or hold you back."
Whenever Mo Tan said that even if he ran away, he would not catch up with Yi Dong, and only hoped that the latter would grow old. When he was living a normal life honestly (mostly under the 'Lawful Good' personality), the other party would always interrupt him impatiently, saying that this was not a 'topic that could be discussed'.
Obviously, gay friend A has a very firm attitude.
I don’t know how many times, whenever Gu Yanyue asked her son jokingly if he had to choose between 'Mo Tan' and 'Mom and Dad', the latter would always reply without hesitation: "Don't be ridiculous, we have known each other for much longer than I have known you."
Although it was just a joke, even Idong's cool father said, 'As long as you two If you don't develop any super friendship, of course we will support you to be lifelong friends, which is a slightly ridiculing comment, but Mo Tan can still capture the helplessness and bitterness of the two elders at that time.
To be honest, I can't blame Yidong for this.
Because he is different from Mo Tan. He is not an orphan. He has harmonious parents, a good family background, and everything that most of his peers yearn for. However, he is an orphan with Mo Tan. The hospital spent the first few years of life, the most important years for a child, and the years in which the worldview is shaped for a relatively precocious person.
There was no reason for him to be sent to that kind of place. Although the orphanage was actually not bad, it could even be said to be a model in the industry. The staff there were also very amiable, and there was no sign of 'abuse'. kind of drama, but there was still no reason for him to be sent there.
Mo Tan is occasionally very lucky, because if Idong had not been sent away, as a 'special person' he might really only be a 'special person', although he would probably grow up smoothly. Big, but the presence of a close friend is indeed enough to make him more of a 'person'.
But he couldn't help but feel sorry for Idong, because it was all unreasonable.
Perhaps if he had not been sent to an orphanage, Yidong would have turned into a pampered young man and a playboy with a bad personality, but the possibility of this happening is actually very small. Just look at Kang Lan, Wan Yang, and Cui Xiaoyu. , also a social layer (The rich second generation, Cui Xiaoyu’s father and grandfather often resell pornographic publications just out of interest), they also have very high qualities. Although young people in modern society are not too upright in their outlook, the character of these people No problems either.
In short, Mo Tan can't understand it, no matter what kind of personality he is in, he can't understand it.
He couldn't lie to himself and say that Yi Dong's parents hated this child. Although Mo Tan did think so at first, Yi Dong was indeed a bit ugly when he was a child (it seemed to be caused by part of the Gu family's genes), but After initially getting to know Yi Nan and Gu Yanyue, Mo Tan can almost guarantee that this couple loves their son very much, just like most parents.
This made it even more difficult for him to understand.
As for Yi Dong himself, although he always conveys to Mo Tan intentionally or unintentionally, 'I am relieved', 'My parents are such good people', 'I love them so much' The information didn't look like he was lying, but Mo Tan was still very aware that there was still a slight 'gap' between him and his parents.
From the moment he was taken home, the 'estrangement' has always existed, and under the care of his parents, it has indeed become smaller and smaller, until it is the so-called 'a little bit' and 'insignificant' .
However, even if this 'gap' will continue to get smaller as time goes by, from 'insignificant' to 'almost non-existent', it will still not disappear.
In other words, as long as the original 'knot' is not untied, the barrier will not disappear.
Mo Tan is Yi Dong's best friend. He also likes Yi Nan and Gu Yanyue very much, so he doesn't want any flaws in the relationship between the family.
But he couldn't resolve Yi Dong's knot, nor could he directly ask Yi Nan and Gu Yanyue related questions.
The reason is simple. No matter how good the relationship between Mo Tan and Yi Dong is, their friendship is even better than the concept of family affection in Yi Dong's mind, but this is a completely different matter.
Unless Mo Tan is ruthless and undergoes a sex reassignment operation to become a real 'Tanjiang' or 'Momozi', and then seduces Yi Dong and directly marries him into the Yi family, becoming a very special person. A hard-core 'family', otherwise it would be difficult for him to make an impact on this matter based on his position.
However, at this moment, Mo Tan unexpectedly found that he had gotten an opportunity.
I got a chance that although it may not solve the problem, at least it is possible to learn the truth!
Yao Qianhan, who is sitting across from him now, is a high-quality human woman with power, power, money and leisure. She has a very good relationship with Yidong's parents.
Nearly thirty years ago, she and Ito's father were even students of this school, and their attendance rate didn't seem to be very high.
In short, whether it was impulsive or whim, Mo Tan suddenly asked Yao Qianhan a question that had troubled him and Yidong for a long time - "Why is Yidong being Send him to an orphanage? "
He asked Yao Qianhan to clarify his doubts, and asked the other party, 'Do you care?' ’ gave an affirmative answer.
However...
“This is not something you should know.”
Yao Qianhan sighed softly and shook her head slightly: "I have been to their house so many times, and little Yidong has never asked me such a question. He is very sensible."
Mo Tan frowned slightly, He said calmly: "But I am not as sensible as him."
"You are an outsider , Classmate Mo Tan. "
Yao Qianhan looked away and rubbed his forehead in agreement: "Understood? Outsider."
Mo Tan narrowed his eyes and did not show it. With obvious emotion, he just repeated thoughtfully: "The outsider..."
Yao Qianhan nodded: "Yes."
"An outsider."
Mo Tan subconsciously raised his index finger to touch his chin and murmured: "It's not an outsider...but an outsider." ?”
At this moment, a strange look flashed across Mo Tan’s eyes. His relatively thin lips were pursed tightly, and his eyes were focused on his knees, as if he was doing something. Psychological struggle.
Yao Qianhan did not miss this detail, and after thinking briefly, she subconsciously clenched her fists.
She had long thought of a certain possibility... although it was impossible in theory...
The next moment, Yao Qianhan seemed to have made some determination and activated her ability without hesitation.
Yes, ability.
To be more precise, it should be something similar to a superpower, which belongs exclusively to the "marginal people" group - symbolic power. Different from the two concepts of "shu" and "zijue" that every marginalized person can possess through learning and practice, the symbolic power of each marginalized person is unique, as unique as DNA.
And the symbolic power of Yao Qianhan, who has the title of "Tian Ting", is related to the word "Ting".
For example, now, even though it has only activated the lowest level of abilities, at this moment, Yao Qianhan has completed monitoring Mo Tan’s heartbeat, blood pressure, and breathing rate, in addition to the latter’s body temperature. , muscle tremors, skin resistance and other things that are theoretically impossible to be 'heard'.
But Yao Qianhan can hear it. As the top person in charge of the 'marginal people' group in B City, she is recognized as 'the most difficult woman to deal with' in the industry even though she is not good at fighting. Just can hear it.
Then, Yao Qianhan asked Mo Tan a question very abruptly: "By the way, classmate Mo Tan, when was the last time we met?"
"Huh?"
Mo Tan was stunned for a moment, then pondered for a moment in confusion, and replied uncertainly: "Last year's New Year's Day party?"
"Liar."
Yao Qianhan said lightly , and then looked sternly at Mo Tan, who looked confused: "I don't want you to lie."
Mo Tan scratched his hair and said sheepishly: "Well, I'm really sorry. ...I really can’t remember clearly..."
"Okay, let me ask more clearly."
Yao Qianhan narrowed her eyes slightly and asked word by word: "Last month, that is, during the day on July 2nd, did you, Xiaoge, Xiaodao and the others come to school?"
【! 】
On the surface, Mo Tan, who seemed calm but was actually greatly shocked, tilted his head in confusion, lowered the two windows of his soul, and muttered: "Yeah, I remember. , I met the two sisters that morning, and then we went to the courier company to pick up something. Later, we decided to come to the third cafeteria of our school to have something to eat, so we came over together."
Yao Qianhan nodded slightly and calmly. Asked: "Then what?"
"Then...well, then I took them in circles for a long time."
Mo Tan smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said helplessly: "My sense of direction has never been very good, and then they didn't let me look at the map and use the navigation that day. The result was... quite embarrassing."
Yao Qianhan said a noncommittal 'hmm', and then continued to ask: "What next?"
"And then?"
Mo Tan glanced at Yao Qianhan in confusion and said blankly: "Then we went to eat, the delicious chicken wings rice bowl in the third cafeteria, oh by the way! We also met Director Pang on the way, that's the one..."
"Didn't I say it, Pang The teacher was also our class teacher at the time, so you don’t need to describe it.”
Yao Qianhan interrupted Mo Tan lightly and asked quickly: "I met Director Pang, and then what?"
"We talked about my attendance rate."
< br>Mo Tan shrank his neck and laughed dryly: "It took a lot of effort to let me go."
"Is there anything else?"
"What else is there?"
"I mean, did you only talk to Director Pang about this?"
"Yes."
"Do you still remember me?"
"You... ..."
"You are really good at lying, classmate Mo Tan, but since the words have come to this, you might as well guess whether you can fool me."
Yao Qianhan elegantly folded her long legs, folded her hands in front of her chest, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
Mo Tan stopped talking.
But the other party didn't seem to let him go so easily. Instead, he looked at Mo Tan with interest and asked curiously: "So, why didn't you forget it?"
Mo Tan still didn't speak, even though his brain was running rapidly at this moment.
So, taking advantage of this period of silence, we might as well look back and see what happened on July 2nd.
...
"Hmm, we are Ji Wutong's daughters!"
Ji Xiaoge immediately took teacher Pang Pang's hand enthusiastically and asked with burning eyes: "Do you know dad?" "
In front of the laboratory building, Ji Xiaoge looked at Director Pang Pang with burning eyes.
Director Pang Pang nodded with a complex expression and replied: "Well, actually I was your father's class teacher back then, classmate Ji Xiaoge. Can I ask a question?"
Ji Xiaoge tilted his head: "Huh? Please tell me."
"What's your mother's surname?"
"Eh?"
"Sorry, I mean , your mother’s name is..."
"Ye Xi"
"Hmm...nothing wrong...Ye Xi...a good girl, of course a good girl, a perfect match...No, maybe it's a pity to match Ji Wutong. It would be a pity for anyone to match him."
" ..."
