Chapter 859 Guilt

"Are you the administrator here?"

"I'm from the security department. I usually do the chores like reception."

Ah Qing's pace was very fast, and Li Luo could only speed up his pace to barely keep up.

Although the other party is not very talkative, every time I ask, he can answer it very efficiently.

Passing through the flashing lights, the two quickly arrived in front of a building.

Ah Qing didn't go in either. He just stood in front of the building and looked at the electronic screen in his hand from time to time.

"What are you doing?" Li Luo was a little curious, but she didn't ask in detail, just waiting here quietly.

But looking at the sealed building, Li Luo quickly thought of something.

"Is this the conference room where the disappearance occurred?"

She whispered it, and Ah Qing also heard her murmur, nodded, and confirmed: "That's right."

It turned out that this was the conference room. Li Luo looked at it curiously and found that there was nothing special about it.

"Why are you waiting here?" Li Luo still couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked Ah Qing who was standing aside.

"The surveillance camera in the conference room is broken and no one is observing. Every evening at seven o'clock, there will be sounds coming from inside. I am afraid of an accident, so I keep an eye here." A Qingyan answered Li Luo's question concisely and concisely.

But when he said this, his expression was a little complicated, and he seemed to have some more important reasons.

"The surveillance system is broken? Why don't you let someone fix it?" Li Luo asked in confusion.

"I can repair it myself, but it's a crime scene inside and I can't enter it casually. I can only report it to Montnets and ask specific maintenance personnel to repair it. But I've reported it for a week and no one has come."

Speaking of this, Ah Qing's expression became solemn. He stared at the building, as if looking at a dangerous enemy.

Li Luo also noticed Ah Qing's uneasiness. She thought about it and asked, "Do you know something inside?"

She could guess that there must be many hidden secrets in this disappearance case that occurred more than 20 years ago. The security officer of the Mengdu Scientific Research Institute in front of her might know something.

After hearing Li Luo's question, Ah Qing did not answer immediately. Instead, he looked at the building as if he was recalling something.

After a moment, he pointed to the door of the conference room, and his tone suddenly became a little lonely: "Twenty years ago, when the disappearance case occurred, I was standing there."

At this time, the initial solemnity on his face was gone, replaced by endless guilt.

"My colleagues and I already noticed something was wrong in the conference room, but I asked him to stay, and I ran to report it, and the result..."

Speaking of this, his voice trembled a little, as if he didn't want to touch those painful memories.

"If I had stayed, Lao Ping wouldn't have disappeared..."

"That colleague of yours is called Lao Ping?" Li Luo asked softly.

"Yes, Li Ping, Ping Ping An Ping, he is much older than me. He takes good care of me at work and rushes to do everything. He just doesn't like new things very much and is a bit old-fashioned..."

Recalling Lao Ping's appearance, Ah Qing smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The neon lights are flashing, and the security guard of the Mengdu Scientific Research Institute seems to always be suffering from unimaginable guilt. Only when facing outsiders can he confide his inner pain.

For twenty years, Ah Qing has been regretting why he let Lao Ping stay.

Lao Ping is still so obedient, even though he is so much older, he still listens to him like this.

"Why didn't he reject me then? If he had rejected my arrangement, this wouldn't have happened..."

Ah Qing doesn't understand why tragedies always happen to good people.

To others, that disappearance case was just a slightly strange story, but to him, it was a shadow that lingered in his heart and could not be dispelled for twenty years.

Now monitoring the damage, listening to that familiar voice every night dragged him back to that evening twenty years ago again and again.

A living person who was chatting and laughing with him not long ago disappeared without a trace in an instant, and was never heard from again...

Ah Qing seemed to have opened up a chat box and kept telling Li Luo about his guilt.

He couldn't tell these things to the people around him. For a middle-aged man, talking about these things would only make others think he was hypocritical.

But if you can't forget, you can't forget.

Time has not reduced the shadow of twenty years ago by half, but has made the guilt brew deeper and deeper, trapping Ah Qing in that evening twenty years ago.

Listening to Ah Qing's words, Li Luo also sighed.

After all, only those involved can understand the pain of these tragedies.

She could only comfort her: "If you had stayed and Lao Ping left by chance, he would have felt very guilty. No one can control these things that happened. You just made the choice that you felt was right at the time."

"Isn't that what the abyss is like? Any choice you make has a price, but the price is different..."

Hearing Li Luo's comfort, Ah Qing shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It's so embarrassing that I have to have a young man come to comfort me... I've been in the abyss for so long, but I still can't figure out many things."

"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. There are not many twenty years in life. As long as you are trapped, it will be over." Li Luo said somewhat calmly.

"Are you comforting me or laughing at me?" Hearing Li Luo say this, A Qing suddenly laughed: "I didn't expect that you are so young, but you are more pessimistic than me."

"Being too optimistic in the abyss is not a good thing." Li Luo said with deep understanding.

"That's true." A Qing nodded thoughtfully, obviously agreeing with what Li Luo said.

He picked up the electronic screen again and looked at the time.

"18:57."

Although the conversation with Li Luo made A Qing feel much better, he still sighed softly.

"Time is almost up."

"Yeah."

The two of them waited quietly until seven o'clock, watching the number on the electronic screen jump to "19:00".

However, the expected scream did not come, A Qing was stunned for a moment, and repeatedly confirmed the time.

"Did you bring the electronic screen? What time is it now?" He asked Li Luo with an uneasy look.

Li Luo took out his electronic screen and showed it to A Qing.

The number on it was also set at "19:00".

After confirming that it was not his electronic screen that was at fault, Ah Qing looked at the building, then rushed over, kicked open the fences surrounding the building, and came directly to the door.

He did not hesitate, tore open the seal, and then pushed open the long-sealed door with force.

"Lao Ping! Is that you!"

The guilt accumulated over the past twenty years turned into an anxious inquiry, and the voice swept through the long river of time and landed in the meeting room that had long been forgotten by others.
