Lenny hung on Arthur's body quietly. When they were hugging each other, they could hear each other's
breath and heartbeat. In those long and cold nights, even a person did not dare to think carefully, but
now it was all true. Sometimes, they would have an illusion that everything was too beautiful.
The more beautiful the thing was, the easier it would be broken.
After a long time, Lenny slowly pushed Arthur away. He lowered his eyebrows, making it hard to see
how deep sadness was in his deep eyes.
"Do you have cigarettes?" Lenny suddenly asked.
Arthur immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, "No! I really don't have any cigarettes with me!"
Lenny didn't say anything. He took out a box of half smoked cigarettes from his trouser pocket. Arthur
was embarrassed. He forced a smile and explained, "Well, this... Well... I've hurt my feet recently. So
my brain is not working well and my memory is poor..."
Lenny lit a cigarette and took a few puffs. Half of his face was shrouded in smoke. He sat down on the
carved stone steps next to him, frowning tightly, and his hoarse voice slowly broke the silence. "After
my mother died, my father completely ignored me. He was busy with filming and wouldn't come back
for a few months. At that time, I spent time with grandpa in the old house. Grandpa brought me up.
Every time I went out, I would see Grandpa standing at the door and watching me go away..."
He paused and frowned slightly. He looked so haggard that his voice trembled at the end of his words.
"I thought he would stand at that short door to send me away all his life. I never thought that he would
leave me... What is life?"
What was life?
Life was just living.
Arthur took the almost cold coffee and put it in the hand of Lenny. Then he sat silently next to Lenny,
with a cigarette in his mouth. In the darkness, the light of fire flickered, like a moth that darted into the
fire, and went to destruction without hesitation.
Arthur's throat moved slightly and said in a somewhat bitter tone, "You have been busy all the time, so I
haven't had the time to say a word to you personally... Well, I'm sorry for you... You still have me."
He didn't know what else to say except this.
He had also experienced death and heartbroken loss, because death was irreversible, but the living
people had to live on, looking forward and moving forward.
Lenny raised his hand to cover his tired eyes. He felt as if his heart was cut by a knife, but the pain was
in his heart. He couldn't say or cry. He could only bear it silently.
After a long time, Lenny came to his senses and said slowly, "Arthur, promise me that no matter what
danger you are in and no matter what situation you are in, you will survive... Promise me..."
Arthur smiled, pretending to be relaxed. Then he raised his hand and rubbed Lenny's head, saying,
"Don't worry. God will bless me. I will take you out to have fun when you are old. As for you, he has
gone. Don't make things difficult for yourself, okay?"
After a long silence, Lenny finally said in a low voice, "Okay."
In the Yan Garden.
In the study.
Martin was reading the materials that had just been sent to him, while Cassandra was reading the
script. The two of them had been together for a long time, and they had formed a tacit understanding
that they could freely perform in the same space without disturbing each other.
After Cassandra finished reading the script, she saw that Martin was still lowering his head and
frowning tightly, as if he had encountered a problem. Cassandra couldn't help putting down the script in
her hand and leaned over.
"The Oracle Plan? Is this the shadow book of the Oracle plan?" Cassandra was also stunned. She
didn't expect to see this antique again.
Back then, Professor Hu denied that there was Oracle plan, but this shadow certificate was solid
evidence to prove that he was lying. But they still didn't know why he was lying.
"Yes," Martin rubbed between his eyebrows and said in a tired and hoarse voice, "It's also the only
shadow book. Unless someone hides the other one privately, it should be the only one in the world."
Cassandra was curious, "May I have a look?"
Martin nodded slightly and pushed the folder in front of Cassandra, "More than twenty years ago, Hugh
just got his doctor's degree and started teaching. This is the first research project he proposed. At that
time, the school didn't have any extra fund at all. So he found my father. My father had read this plan in
person and left this shadow book. Otherwise, no one would look for any clues about this plan in the
past."
After skimming through the whole content of the Oracle plan for a long time, Cassandra said in a daze,
"The Oracle plan is a perfect criminal chain. More than 20 years ago, even abroad did not have such
advanced criminal concept. How could Hugh write it into a research project? Is he crazy?"
Genius and madman were always on the same line. No wonder Watson had made an appointment with
Hugh and wanted to go back to meet him as soon as possible after reading the materials of Oracle
plan.
However, there were so many big shots and rich people in the capital city who wanted to put
themselves in an academic title. Why did Hugh only choose Watson?
Martin said, "He's not crazy. Studying the criminal psychology doesn't have the features of anti-society
and anti-human, but once there is a deviation in the process of implementation, the result will be the
opposite. Moreover, my father didn't control the Lu Clan at that time, so he is just one of the second-
generation rich in the capital city. Why did Hugh choose my father? Maybe my father had been chosen
as their prey at that time, and Hugh was just a bait they threw out."
Cassandra's pupils shrank sharply, as if she had heard a fantasy. To be honest, she was a person who
had made up a script, but she really didn't dare to write it in this way!
Because if she didn't write well, her reader would scold her.
"Do you mean that they had already noticed that there was something wrong with your father's identity
and deliberately threw out Hugh to seduce your father?" Cassandra felt that she couldn't keep up with
this secret.
Martin nodded, "It can be said that. There are even more hidden things behind it, but it will take some
time to investigate what happened in the past."
