"She's in trouble."
The voice came from behind.
The man turned his attention slightly.
His eyebrow twitched.
"There's hardly a chance for her to recover."
"So what should we do? Try to get her out?"
"No need."
"But... what if she lets something slip..."
"She won't."
"The situation is so big, it's still heating up, I'm afraid some manipulative people are pulling the strings, trying to get me to show up."
"So?"
"I've been preparing my hidden pieces, no need to worry."
"Ok…"
"What about her?"
"She's... quite busy recently."
——
The first snowfall in Beijing had been going on for a while.
It stopped for a whole morning.
Then kept on without a break.
Cold invaded, the roads were all iced over, big waves of cleaners were clearing the ice surface.
Early in the morning.
The coldest time.
At the entrance of the breakfast shop.
Many people were already lined up to buy breakfast early.
Lu Yiyu had a cigarette in his mouth, unlit.
He could only smell it.
