"I remember you were always with Kunlun. Now you are with Detective Zhao Yunlan?" Shen Wei said. "How did you find me?"
"I snuck into the Chief's car when he came and interviewed you. I recognized you, and I know he doesn't recognize you or have any memory of the time you were with him. He doesn't know he was Kunlun thousands of years ago.
"I remember you and my master Kunlun in ancient times. You exercised constantly, wrestling each other, always exercising and training. You were a good team. He disappeared and I spent my life looking for him. You must have also been looking. My name is still Da Qing and I belong to Yunlan. I am his deputy at SID. You and I both know he is the reincarnation of Kunlun. My Master was happiest when you were together, and he hasn't been deeply happy in this lifetime. I want you to be together again for his sake."
"I desperately want to be together again. I still love him! I've lived to be with him. He is the man of my dreams! Do you know how I can make friends with him? I am trying to find the murderer that drains blood. It has to be a Dixingian power. But why these students? Both have, er, had brilliant minds. I plan to catch whoever is doing this and turn them over to the Chief. He will appreciate it."
"It could be dangerous, Professor. You should have backup."
"I don't need it. I can take care of myself." Shen Wei locked the door and manifested the Black Cloak Envoy's robes and mask. "Please don't tell anyone." He changed his clothes back. "I trust you. I plan to help the detective and make friends with him. Once we are friends either as professor or Envoy, we could have something more meaningful."
"Okayyyyy 'Professor'. I get it. But you know, Yunlan is NOT fond of your true identity. You have scarcely paid any attention to him or SID over the last years. If you had, you would have known Kunlun was here."

Shen Wei put his head down and shook it. He took off his glasses and rubbed his temples. "It's my shame that I was like that. I was growing tired of the ever increasing escapes and frequent captures I had to do. It felt like one thing after another, more and more crimes, and, I...I...was foolish and I...made a huge mistake." He swallowed and smiled ruefully. "The biggest mistake of my life. I'm so sorry. So sorry, unbelievably sorry." His lips trembled and his voice shook. He fisted his hands, and tears pooled in the bottom of his eyes. One teardrop fell down his cheek.
"Hey, hey there. No use crying over spilled milk, professor. That's done and over. Just make sure the next time you get to enjoy it and don't lose it." Da Qing winked at him. "I'll try to push him to meet you again, if I can influence him. I'll work with you to make it happen." Da Qing winked again and went out through the door. "Your secret is safe with me."

Shen Wei roamed the campus at 10 PM and watched from rooftops. He'd asked the Yashou flora to keep an eye out and let him know if any Dixingians passed them. One beautiful Yashou who was a spirea spirit said there was a man in black that went by right after a student left the library she was next to. It looked like he was following the student.
