The Heaven's Plan

I'm here to save you, punk

"Wei Wuxian, the boss of the criminal group Burial Mounds was arrested by Police Captain Jiang Cheng and Detective Lan Wangji in Shanghai yesterday at 21 for the the slaughter of the Police Chief Nie Mingjue, Attorney Jin Zixuan and his wife Jiang Yanli. The funeral will be h-"

"What?"

Shen Qingqiu couldn't believe it. Wei Wuxian a murderer? Yeah, he was for sure not an ordinary person with an ordinary life. He knew he was known in the underworld for his organization called the Burial Mounds in Shanghai, but also it was pretty famous for being an organization who fought corruption and government, and never act with violence, if not for protection of the weak.

Also Jiang Yanli? If he rembered correctly wasn't she his adoptive sister, who he adored dearly?

"What in the world has happened to him? Did he go finally mad?"

He knew Wei Wuxian very well, back in high school they were quite close. The energetic boy was a year younger than him, but so bright he managed to get in the advanced class, together with Lan Wangji.

Wait-

"Did Jiang Cheng arrest him? And Lan Wangji helped the arrest?! There is no way!"

Wei Wuxian was adopted by the Jiang family after losing both of his parents in a car accident. He was very loved by his adoptive father, but way less by his adoptive mother. Anyway, the one he was accepted by the most were his siblings: Jiang Yanli, a sweet girl in Qingqiu's class, and Jiang Cheng, same age as Wuxian and his best friend. They were inseparable.

What the hell has happened to them?

"Ah, it's not like I know what is going on with their life. We didn't speak to each other in like 10 years anyway. Wei Wuxian has always been a bit out of control." He sighed, taking his jacket, ready to go to his office.

He probably lost his mind completely, without anyone to keep him on the right path.

Out of the door, he looked up at the sky. Without Lan Wangji.

Even if he made up his mind on not thinking about that news, he couldn't stop himself from remembering the old times, when they were young and irresponsible, but happy and carefree.

He chuckled remembering how annoying Wei Wuxian was to Lan Wangji, but it was that energetic and smart part of his personality that attracted Wangji, and he didn't even realized until it was to late.

Well, he couldn't really judge. He would be an hypocrite.

"Detective Shen!"

"Oh, hi Qinghua, it's unusual to see you so early in the office."

Qinghua was the only colleague he had, a lazy police officer who wouldn't have found any job if his parents weren't some government employees. He wasn't a bad person and he was quite skillful as well, but he was just very good at work as little as possible.

"Didn't you see my message?" he said. He was fidgeting with his own hands. Seemed contrasting with his usual calm behavior. He registered the action, before the words.

"Message?"

He was so shocked by the news that he completely forgot to check his phone that morning.

"Ah, sorry I was a bit distracted today. What was it ab-" but he stopped abruptly.

Just behind Shang Qinghua, there was someone familiar. Very familiar.

"-Lan Wangji?"

A tall, handsome man with golden eyes and luxurious suit was looking at him. On the contrary of what he remembered from youth, he had short black hair.
