title: fourth autumn

summary:

It is a trap, and Zhou Zishu knows it; the kind he had set himself, before, when Tian Chuang wanted to threaten someone discreetly, with a minimum of attention. They want Wen Kexing alive because they know Zhou Zishu will give chase. They want Zhou Zishu alive because they want him back. And he does not intend to give them the pleasure of his company a third time.

Zhou Zishu has become an arrow, single-pointed. It's a place inside himself he has never wanted to venture into, again, but for one person, and one person only, he will do it.

“I’m looking for Wen Kexing.”
