After living
with my boyfriend, I once found a picture of
a woman in my boyfriend’s notebook.
That photo is very similar to the appearance of the
deceased in the missing person notice released by the police some time ago.
Is my boyfriend a murderer? More and more strange things began to happen
. My boyfriend and I moved in together
12008
fall. To avoid the marriage my father arranged
for me.
It was the first time I lived with my boyfriend.
The house is in a dilapidated old residential area, the walls have been peeled off, and the bathroom is still a squatting toilet.
If it weren’t for Zhou Yunkai, I might never live in such a house and be so
happy. Zhou Yunkai and
I have a secret love affair. He gave me a vague account of his background. Single-parent family, not rich, father is also
sick.
For my dad, who has always been well-matched, this is a relationship that will never be recognized
by him.
Therefore, I have been hiding the existence of Zhou Yunkai.
As a result, my father recently introduced me to a partner, an arranged marriage, and I
made up my mind to live with Zhou Yunkai.
This is my best day for more than a week. I lied
to my family that I was on a business trip, but in fact I was taken care of carefully. Three
meals a day, sweet talk, practicing boxing during the day, reading and studying in the afternoon, and watching Hong Kong and
Taiwan movies late at night. We
get along like we’re on our honeymoon.
Until I saw a piece of news that made my hair stand on end.
It says that there have been three cases of missing persons in our small town in recent days. Crime scene
, no prints.
One of the naked women’s bodies was found floating in the river
after several days of disappearance.
That’s not the point. The point is, when the police released the missing woman’s body, I saw her picture when I was cleaning
up the bedroom!
It was a picture of a middle-aged woman, hidden in Zhou Yunkai’s notebook.
At that time, I asked him if he was his mother.
He said no.
“She’s a bad guy from a TV show. Don’t be afraid.”
“Bad people die.” Now
I know that the bad man is really dead.
But that person is not from a TV show, but from real life. After
that day, I began to have a fear of Zhou Yunkai from the bottom of my heart. Both
intuition and his reply told me that he was hiding something from me, and I
knew nothing about it.
I tried to pretend that I didn’t know anything and continue to live a sweet and quiet
cohabitation life with Zhou Yunkai.
But the strange things that have followed have made me more and more suspicious and uneasy.
It was the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I went to take a bath. I have been wearing a hearing aid because of my ear disease. But that time, I forgot to pick it. When the
fog rose, I remembered the hearing aid in my ear and was hurriedly taking it off, but I heard Zhou Yunkai’s conversation coming from the living
room.
“It’s all done.”
“Yes, no one will find out.”
“There are no goals, are there?”
“They have nothing to do with this.”
The more I listened, the more frightened I became.
But when I summoned up the courage to open the bathroom door, Zhou Yunkai hung up the phone at a very fast speed
and looked at me calmly.
“Why is it so fast today?” He asked.
‘Oh.. The water is a little cold..
I still didn’t dare to ask him a question.
Zhou Yunkai nodded, casually put on a sweater jacket, casually
said: “I go out to do something.”.
But today is the Mid-Autumn Festival! I wanted to say so, but because of the fear of these days, I only dare to
nod cleverly. Wait until the moment of closing the door, the grievance welled up in my heart, and then I decided to retain
it.
As a result, when I put my hand on the grip, I heard the sound
of a lock outside the door.
My heart suddenly sank.
In retrospect, Zhou Yunkai and I just moved together for less than half a month.
But he used the fastest time to install the fence of the window and change the door lock that could be locked
from the outside.
Zhou Yunkai once spoiled me and told me that he did all this so that I would not be taken
away by my father.
But. However, I suddenly woke up, in addition to my hands have a mobile phone, I
have more than a week, did not go out of the door, even if not once to the corridor!
In other words.
It was Zhou Yunkai who imprisoned me in disguise? As soon as
the idea came to me, I got goose bumps all over my body. When
his brain was running fast, I noticed that his computer was not turned off. I swallowed my saliva, went into his bedroom, picked up the mouse, clicked on the web page, and put the mouse
on the search bar.
Then, the search history on the screen almost broke through my last psychological
defense line.
“The Movie of Dumping Corpses”, “The Perfect Crime”, “How to Sentence Intentional Homicide”..
When I clicked on these search records, I saw that every corresponding link turned
purple.
That’s the sign that was clicked on.
So. My boyfriend, who I’ve been living with, is actually a murderer?
I hardly dared to think any more, and was about to call the police for help to escape from the
room when a voice came from behind me.
“Zhao Miao.”
You are.. What are you doing
I suddenly turned around and saw Zhou Yunkai, with a sullen face, blocking the door and staring at
me.
I put on a stiff smile and walked over to him.
It was the longest step in my life-because I saw a dagger pinned to Zhou Yunkai’s waist
. When I came to Zhou Yunkai, I said: Your computer is not turned off, I want to help you turn it off, you
see.
I pointed to the computer.
Then, while his eyes shifted to kung fu, he kicked him hard in the abdomen!
Suddenly, he began to wail loudly.
I ran out of the door in the midst of the chaos.
Late at night in the corridor, dark and silent, voice control lights sometimes good and sometimes bad, I three steps and two steps,
breathing heavily, quickly jumped down the steps.
This is the first time I have been outside the building since I moved in.
Late at night in the old residential area, a few steps out of the door is a quiet path, there is no taxi
, I shouted loudly, while running aimlessly.
After running about 100 meters, I noticed that there was a 304 bus
parked in front of me. Before
I knew it, one of the most dangerous nights of my life had come
.
I ran to the bus, as if I heard my shouting, and the bus stopped
where it was. Behind me, Zhou Yunkai called my name, and in my hearing aid, his voice grew stronger and
weaker.
Looking back, his vague figure was in hot pursuit.
With my last ounce of strength, I got into the car and shouted, “Close the door, driver!”!
Car, it’s starting.
I took a deep breath, stood up, and was about to tell the bus driver to drive to the police station when I
noticed that it was a very strange driver.
His right arm was exposed, and it turned out to be an artificial limb.
I don’t know if I think too much.
But the news said that in three cases of disappearance, there were no fingerprints left at the scene of the presumed victim’s disappearance, whether
he was stunned or abducted. Prostheses, on the
other hand, don’t have fingerprints.
I immediately shut up and sat back as if I didn’t know.
Then, realizing something, I quietly turned around and looked at the only
passenger on the bus besides me.
It was a drunken man.
The man buried his head and his clothes were loose and sloppy, especially ill-fitting. And. The body does not have the rise and fall of breathing. In
my mind, I can’t help but jump out of a terrible idea.
I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shivered and took out my mobile phone to take a picture, enlarged it and looked
at it constantly.
Gradually, I finally figured out what was going on with that man.
Goose bumps crawled all over my body in an instant, and even my chest was filled with a
disgusting feeling of vomiting.
The drunk man is a corpse. The body of the
driver.
Sweat, dripping on the screen of the mobile phone, dripping on the pale body of the driver in the screen.
I almost cried out, and I kept regretting and scolding myself for why I wanted to
take the bus?
Why don’t you give Zhou Yunkai more trust? Must suspect him of being a murderer
?
But he forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and immediately dialed 110.
He looked up again, but he was stunned. The middle-aged man was staring at me through the rearview mirror.
He made a gesture: the prosthetic arm, twisting the button, turned off the radio on the car.
Suddenly, the car was silent.
I knew that if I made a sound or even left his sight, I would be found.
At this time, out of the corner of my eye, I saw that the alarm phone had been dialed, and the voice of the
police officer came.
I held my cell phone tightly and looked at the middle-aged man through the rearview mirror,
not daring to breathe for fear of making any sound. There was only one thought left in my
mind: once the car stopped, it might be my death
.
Until I saw a text message coming from the mobile phone interface.
That’s Zhou Yunkai’s text message.
That driver is dangerous! Find a way to run! I did the three missing cases in the news of
Zhou Yunkai
6
.
Three people, all dead. This year, I was 21 years old, and the first time I killed someone, I was brought by my father. When I was
7
years old, the Xiagong Automobile Factory in my hometown closed down.
At that time, my father broke his arm because of a work-related injury, and he could not get the work-related injury fee, so he fell into depression day by day
.
Later, the mother committed suicide by jumping off a building because she could not bear the huge burden.
From that day on, my dad told me every day to get revenge.
He said that the closure of the automobile factory was due to the embezzlement of public funds by the leaders of the automobile factory.
And the meaning of our life is to kill those leaders. So that my mother’s soul
in heaven can also close her eyes.
In those years, I grew up in hatred.
Under the guidance of my father, I don’t need to study, I don’t need to find a job, I just need to learn
to use my fists and blades, waiting for the opportunity to kill my enemies.
I was led by my father, using all kinds of weapons, slaughtering chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, training my threshold
of killing.
Eventually, in the blood of every day, I suffered from severe depression.
Years later, with a blade in my hand, I embarked on a journey of revenge. My father gave me a list
of all the leaders of the automobile factory at that time, including their children.
My dad said it was all people to kill.
But at a glance, I saw a familiar face.
Zhao Miao.
My first girlfriend, the medicine of my whole boyhood. After
that day, I learned that Zhao Miao was the daughter of a leader of the factory. Zhao Miao and
I, not only no longer have any possibility, even, she may die because of me.
I have to do something.
I told my dad that the children were innocent.
I told my father that there was a right and a creditor, and we had to start with killing
the people who persecuted my family most.
Gradually, my father began to waver, and I was not idle.
I found a chance, a chance to live with Zhao Miao.
I hid her upstairs in my house, and by all means, I didn’t give her a chance to go out. As a result, I finally stayed up until the last day of my father’s revenge. I thought everything
would be over. I thought I could let Zhao Miao escape, but she caught
me.
She’s starting to think I’m a murderer. She’s
scared of me, she kicks me, she runs through the door, I can take it. In fact, I still have a little relief in my heart
.
But I watched helplessly as she boarded a bus.
If there is no accident, my father just killed a man, the driver
of the bus, and we will take the bus to the end
of revenge on this night.
Everything is out of control.
I know that my father remembers her, and he would not refuse such a lamb to be slaughtered
.
But I want to save her.
Zhao Miao

bus is driving on the deserted highway in the suburbs.
I didn’t have time to ask Zhou Yunkai how he knew the driver was dangerous? But I have observed it. On the
left seat window, there is a life-saving hammer. Only when
I get the life hammer, break the glass and jump out of the car at the fastest speed, can I have one in ten
thousand chances of survival. The only time
left for me was about
20 seconds when the middle-aged man stepped on the brake and rushed from the driver’s seat.
I prearranged the action many times in my mind to make sure that I could do it safely before
stretching. Walk around pretending not to care.
Step by step, move to the seat under the life hammer. After taking
a deep breath, I held out my hand quickly!
Almost at the same second, there was the sound of the bus braking suddenly! The sudden inertia of the
bus made me hit my head on the front seat.
At the same time, the stereo in the car is turned up to the maximum.
Through the hearing aid, it made my brain roar.
I could not help groaning, and then raised his head, in the blurred line of sight, the middle-aged man strode
toward me.
In his hand, he held a long, narrow and sharp meat chopping knife.
In those few seconds, I have never been so glad that I have practiced Taekwondo for many years.
I quickly got up and retreated. Give yourself enough time to bow, raise your arms, and make a fist.
Even if it’s a mantis arm, it’s my last chance.
When the middle-aged man saw my posture, he was stunned, stood where he was, and threw the meat chopping knife
behind him.
He spoke for the first time, “Oh?”
It was a playful tone.
However, because of his stop, I took the opportunity to adjust my breathing and get myself into the best
condition. In
a life-and-death crisis, I can feel as if I can control every muscle.
Eyes, staring at middle-aged people.
Sweat dripped from my forehead, and I didn’t dare to blink. At the moment
of adrenaline surge, the middle-aged man spoke again: “Zhao Miao, right?”?
Zhao Tiansheng’s daughter.
I couldn’t help but be stunned.
The middle-aged man once again gave the same grim smile I had when I first saw him. Twelve years ago, I had my eye on you. It was originally decided to leave you children to
your fate, but I didn’t expect that you could bump into the door by yourself.
…… So.
When he finished, I lost the last bit of courage to resist.
This is a pervert who’s been trying to kill me since 12 years ago?
I remembered that I was just regretting why I had to catch the train.
Now I understand that whether I will get on this car or not. My end is
doomed.
At this moment, I suddenly thought of Zhou Yunkai. What on earth is
he going to do with a knife? Would it be different if
he was here?
I don’t even know if what I said just now is the psychological warfare of middle-aged people.
But he did do it at the moment when I was most frightened and distracted!
Middle-aged left hand a straight punch, with a sharp fist wind, rushed to my forehead.
I turned sideways in a hurry, squeezing out the last bit of courage and kicking out the whip leg at the same time. Perhaps the middle-aged man was too old to react too slowly and did not have time to dodge.
I suddenly had hope: I had absolute confidence in the kick.
The next second, however, a sharp pain came from the ankle.
The middle-aged man, with his right hand, grabbed my foot.
He didn’t dodge at all, but used the steel-bar prosthesis! In a moment of
great pain, I especially understood Master’s words.
Ten years ago, master told me in all earnestness that the most effective way
to defeat a person is to defeat his heart.
It turns out that the meaning of this sentence is that in this world, there is a kind of person that you can’t defeat by the body in any
case.
In front of me, the middle-aged man held my ankle firmly and threw me to the ground. The
last sight was his fist with a thick layer of cocoon, hitting my face. When I woke up
again, I was tied up under the seat at the back of the carriage.
Mouth, blocked by a stinking rag.
The whole body, except the neck, can not move. I don’t know where the bus is going, and I don’t know where he’s going to take me.
I tried to save myself.
The whole body is writhing, just wasting energy in vain.
His mouth tried to spit out the rag until his cheeks were sore, but to no avail.
I don’t know how long it took, five minutes, ten minutes, half an hour.
My face is full of dry tears and uncontrollable saliva.
It was the most desperate moment of my life. I can’t figure out why I have to
suffer all this?
And just when I lost all hope, the car stopped again.
I heard another passenger get on the bus!
For an instant, I had a strong desire to survive, and I wriggled again,
sobbing as loudly as I could.
At the same time, a pair of canvas shoes appeared in my sight.
The line of sight keeps moving up, canvas shoes, jeans, black shirt, wheat-colored neck.. I was stunned
when I saw that face. The
new passenger is Zhou Yunkai. How did he end up here? In addition to a flash of astonishment in
my mind, there was a strong desire to survive
.
I continued to squirm, trying to make more noise. In the
line of sight, Zhou Yunkai seemed to really hear it.
He slanted his head, frowned, and walked in my direction. I’ve never been
so excited. I’m so excited that I want to cry again.
Three steps later, he was standing in the middle of the carriage in front of me.
He looked down and saw me, and his eyes met.
Those are my familiar eyes, with a trace of melancholy and depression.
As a result, in my hopeful eyes, Zhou Yunkai turned his head. In the
speeding carriage, I only heard him say vaguely,
“Dad.”
Zhou Yunkai
13
I saw Zhao Miao. After looking at Zhao Miao, I went to chat with my father about my daily life.
Soon, the bus arrived at the place where we buried the body. The victims of the
first two missing cases were buried under the corn
60 meters away from the road.
“Keep an eye on her.” After
my father said that, he got off the bus and was ready to carry the body back to the bus for the last step of
revenge.
I took the opportunity to walk quickly to the back of the carriage, squatted down and took out the rag in Zhao Miao’s mouth.
“Chou Yun-kai, you!”
“Shh!”
I motioned for her to be quiet and then whispered, “Don’t ask. After today, it’s all
over.”.
However, Zhao Miao still pressed his voice and said: Why?
Her words seemed to come out of her throat with an unyielding energy.
I couldn’t tell her all this, so I put up her arm, didn’t dare to look her in the eye
, and said, “Go.”. Run to the corn field on the right. Don’t be afraid.
I took her to the car door, took a deep breath, and finally dared to look her in the eye
. It is a pair of eyes that still haunt me. In the clarity, there is the same power as weeds
.
I lowered my voice and said, “I’m sorry, Zhao Miao. Later, you will understand.”. After
saying that, I turned around and pulled down the car door.
As a result, once, twice.. I was dismayed to find that no matter how hard I tried
, the car door would not open.
The bus completely stalled, and the rest could only open the door from the driver’s seat.
“Go!”
I pulled Zhao Miao and took three steps and two steps to the driver’s seat.
In a flash, the chill came from the soles of the feet to Tianlinggai. Zhao Miao, beside me, grabbed my arm because of fear
and almost broke my arm.
We saw it. In the darkness outside the
car, my dad never left.
He was standing outside the door, staring at us in silence.
It was the eyes I knew all too well, cold and empty, a walking
corpse whose body and mind were hollowed out.
“Have you ever thought about your mother?” My father questioned me through the window in a deep voice.
With that, he took the meat knife, yanked the door open, turned over and got on the bus.
Run! Zhao Miao! Run!
I bravely shouted, pushed Zhao Miao away, then turned around and sweated beside
my father.
Bang! Bang.
Suddenly, with two crisp sounds, my eyes were black. After
a brief moment of surprise, I came to my senses.
Zhao Miao. She didn’t run. The first thing she did when she
got the life hammer was to break the only two
lights on the car? What
‘s she gonna do?
At this time, the car was plunged into boundless darkness.
Zhao Miao
14
I know, I can’t run away. Even if you get the life hammer, but smashing the window, climbing the window, these long time,
plus Zhou Yunkai’s father is in the car. Enough for me to die a hundred times.
But I still have a chance. When I was a child
, I had a fever and burned my ears. Reading and living can only rely on hearing
AIDS.
Zhou Yunkai, at a young age, suffered from depression.
I have always thought that I and Zhou Chi are two dead children in the corner, physically disabled
, mentally disabled, healing each other, redeeming each other, until they grow old together.
At this moment, for the first time, I am glad that I am a disabled person.
Because the only good thing that came out of my ear disease was that I became more
sensitive in the dark.
I took off my hearing aid and enjoyed the darkness. When it’s
cloudy, under the clouds. On the outskirts of the night
without street lights, it was dark and invisible in the carriage.
This is my home court. When
darkness fell, I quickly stood behind the seat at the back of the carriage, getting used to the night
. In less than three seconds, the figures of Zhou Yunkai and his father began to become clear
in my sight.
I noticed that Zhou Yunkai and his father froze in the car, waving
their hands flat, trying to find some facilities to rely on.
Suddenly, Zhou Yunkai did not know why, became particularly flustered, kept shouting
: “Dad, where are you?”!
Then I saw Zhou’s father give Zhou Yunkai a slap.
“Shut up!”
I immediately realized that Zhou Fu wanted to hear my footsteps.
Zhou Yunkai, on the other hand, is helping me hide. The front of the
carriage, the driver’s seat, is the only way out.
I couldn’t help holding my breath and tiptoed forward step by step.
Zhou Yunkai also ignored the slap and shouted again.
“Why did you hit me, Dad?!”
Zhou Yunkai shouted angrily and strode back and forth.
I saw him bumping and bumping into the seat and the railing. “Son of a bitch, do you want to rebel?” When Zhou’s father reacted, he cursed angrily from embarrassment
.
But I know that Zhou Fu’s mind is still very calm. In the
darkness, Zhou’s father took two steps back and returned to the driver’s seat precisely, guarding the door
handle.
Moreover, he took out the car keys from his trousers pocket and kept groping for them, trying to restart the car
.
My whole body muscles are tense up: because, once let Zhou Fu start the car, turn on
the headlights, then to meet me, must be hellish torture!
So, instead of tiptoeing forward, I immediately took a big step and rushed to Zhou
Fu!
One step, two steps, three steps, looking at the right time, at the moment when Zhou Fu put the key in my back,
I kicked out a whip leg again.
This time, I hit it.
Twelve points of strength, condensed in the instep, kicked Zhou Fu’s ribs.
Because there was no hearing aid, I could only see that Zhou Fu turned around, opened his mouth wide, and
let out a ferocious roar.
He threw a punch, but it just flailed in the air like a mad man in a temper.
Even though he has a height of at least 1.9 meters, even though his arm span is amazing. But in such darkness, he is a fighter who is infinitely close to the blind.
I have no reason to lose again, never! In
the dilapidated carriage, time and space flow. I came to understand what Master had said to me. The most effective way to
defeat a man is to defeat his heart.
Not by limbs, but by a heart.
A heart that has been beating in silence for many years after deafness. In the
darkness, I stared at Zhou Fu’s arms waving at random and moved gently.
From the carriage, move to the copilot, until finally find a gap and kick
out again!
This kick hit Zhou Fu in the chest, and he threw his back on the door
of the driver’s seat.
I didn’t give him a chance.
One step, deceive the body forward.
A palm, split to the neck.
I clearly saw that Zhou Fu’s body softened down. I took advantage of the opportunity to ride his arms, in the narrow driver’s seat, made a gesture
of falling over the shoulder.
Then, with force, he threw him to the other side.
It was a body of nearly two hundred pounds, and even though I had burst
out with all my strength in the crisis of life and death, I could only move him slightly out of the driver’s seat.
Chou Yun-kai! Don’t let her get away!
I don’t know how loud Zhou’s father used, but I clearly heard his angry roar.
Turning his head, Zhou Yunkai also came to the driver’s seat.
He was blind, but I saw him looking in my direction.
Zhou Yunkai didn’t stop me. All over
his body, only his mouth was moving, and he said a word softly.
I couldn’t hear him, but by the shape of his mouth, I knew he was saying, “Go.”.
As soon as I was cruel, I twisted my head and found the door handle. With a crisp sound, the door opened.
However, as soon as I stepped out of one foot, I felt a slight vibration coming from the carriage.
Looking back, I saw Zhou Yunkai fall on the door glass.
It was Zhou Fu who fell. Zhou’s father touched Zhou Yunkai’s trousers pocket and turned out a mobile phone.
My heart, with the appearance of the mobile phone, suddenly sank and jumped out of the
car.
But at the moment when my feet finally touched the ground.
Light, there it is.
It’s Zhou Fu. He turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone.
I went crazy and started running.
However, the bus has been in the suburbs, and the road is muddy. With one foot deep and one foot shallow,
I stumbled and lost my gravity balance. The light
behind you is getting closer and closer.
Soon, my hair was caught by a big hand.
With a great force, I was thrown on the muddy ground. In the
shaking light, I only felt my father pulling my hair and being dragged
all the way back to the car.
In the car, Zhou’s father cursed Zhou Yunkai and started the car.
I collapsed in the rear of the carriage and looked at Zhou Yunkai for help.
But in fact, Zhou Yunkai and I both know that what we do seems to be useless
.
Father Zhou is like an invincible devil.
And I still don’t know what Zhou Yunkai is hiding from me, for example, what role he played in
the murder case. What kind of past does
that autistic dead child have?
Finally, when the car had arrived in the city, I saw Zhou Yunkai walking
towards me again in silence.
He dug out the hearing aid in my pocket and gently put it on for me.
But I can’t imagine what we can do even if he can untie the rope
in my hand next.
At the moment when Zhou Yunkai squatted down, Zhou’s father opened his mouth in front of him.
“Do you know how your mother died?” In
sight, Chou Yun-kai was stunned. After a moment’s hesitation, he said, “You said you committed suicide
.”
“Do you know why you committed suicide?” Chou Yun-kai’s face showed a puzzled expression. “You told me it was because the pressure was too
great.”
“I lied to you.”
Speeding bus, constantly passing a street lamp, light and shadow mottled.
“That day, your mother and I went to the factory to ask for compensation.”
“I was beaten by those animals, especially on my wounds.”
Your mother is crying like crazy, but it’s no use. The more your mother cries, the more they laugh
.
“Do you know how I survived that day?”
Your mother was insulted by them for me, so she was pressed on the table, right in front of me
. The two animals in suits should be lying in the trunk
under the car now. But when it was too late, they were left in the corn field.
“That woman, the wife of a brute, was in the room, laughing louder than anyone else
.” Did you
see the driver I killed? Li was the security guard who tried desperately to stop me
.
“Chou Yun-kai, today is the last day.”
“Think about your mother, think about it.” 19
Zhou Yunkai froze. Only then did
I know all the grudges.
So Zhou Yunkai’s parents used to be workers in the XGMA automobile factory?
As for the two violent leaders, the two victims who had recently disappeared in the county town were
the enemies of Zhou’s father and son.
But what does all this have to do with me?
Just because they failed to ask for public funds?
I shook my head crazily at Zhou Yunkai.
Zhou Yunkai hesitated and finally took the rag from my mouth. Im
possible! That’s not true! What does all this have to do with me?
Sure enough, Chou’s father sneers and says, “Your father Chao Tien-sheng, the factory director at the time, embezzled
the workers’ property. Do you think I’ve forgotten?”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” I gritted my teeth and said ferociously to Father Chou, “What he said
to you has nothing to do with it!”
I remember, I remember! At that time, I was eight years old, and during the Chinese New Year, I had
a high fever and couldn’t get a taxi. That day, my dad was driving and never came home. He went to ask for money for the workers. “
Yes!”
So much money, he begged one by one. I burned my ears, and my dad didn’t even come
back!
“I’m the one who hates him the most.” I gritted my teeth and said, “But why do you
hate him?”! My father lost his job because he helped the workers ask for money. He drank too much every day and quarreled with
my mother. I burned my ears, and I haven’t laughed with my dad in more than ten years. I
should hate him! I should hate him! You shouldn’t have! The more
I spoke, the louder I spoke.
The louder, the louder the ears roar. The
tense nerves made my brain ache and I couldn’t stop my tears.
However, when I looked ahead, I only saw Zhou Fu’s sneer
in the rearview mirror.
“Do you think I’ll believe that?”
“The excuses I heard that year were much better than you made up.” When I
heard it, I could only give a wry smile.
Actually, I can’t convince myself. I hated my dad for 12 years
because of my ears. What Zhou’s father lost was his wife, his dignity, and his life. He and
I, and even Zhou Yunkai, are all people who are trapped by hatred. So I especially understand how deformed a
person can live under hatred.
I’ve given up the fight.
However, Zhou Yunkai’s words broke the silence.
“I believe her.”
“Why should you?”
“She’s my girlfriend.”
Zhou Yunkai smiled and said to the front, “I told you once that I fell in love with a
girl.”. Remember? I was badly beaten by you
that day. I dislocated my left hand. You should remember that.
This time it was Zhou’s father’s turn to be silent.
Silence spread in the carriage, leaving only the bumping sound of “clatter”.
Then the jolt seemed a little smaller.
The speed of the car seems to have slowed down a little. Finally, after a long period of silence, the sound of Zhou’s father stepping on the
brake sounded in the carriage.
His back seemed to suddenly bend a little.
With a sniff, the door of the carriage opened for the first time since I got on the train.
I looked at Zhou Yunkai hesitantly.
“Go down, you two.”
Zhou Fu did not look back and said in a low voice.
Outside, it was an empty street, but at least there were yellowing street lights. After
hearing this, I no longer hesitated and jumped out of the car immediately.
Chou Yun-kai also hesitated and jumped out of the car. The difference was that he turned around and said to Chou’s father
, “Dad, wait.”
My heart, can not help pulling up again. Dissatisfied eyes staring at Zhou Yunkai, trying to tell him with
his eyes, wait for him what strength ah! Run fast!
“Zhao Miao, I want to say goodbye to you.”
I didn’t expect Zhou Yunkai’s first words to be like this. “What are you talking about?”
I urged softly, frowning to pull him? Let’s go!
I can’t go. You don’t understand. I can’t change, and I can’t go back. He looked at the endless night sky in the distance and said, “I have to do one last thing.”.
I couldn’t bear it any longer, and I was going to shout abuse.
But at the moment of opening his mouth, there was a creepy feeling.
I can smell it. It’s a smell.
This smell has always existed, but when the wind blows, it is even more pungent.
Following the smell, my pupils contracted in an instant. Inside the
car, gasoline is ticking out.
That’s the smell of gasoline.
I twisted my neck stiffly and looked at Zhou Yunkai, his hiding eyes
.
I see it.
In the direction of his wandering eyes, there is a dilapidated family building of Xiagong Automobile Factory.
In that year, it was distributed to the first batch of workers in the factory. Later, most of these workers became the leaders of the automobile
factory.
Six stories high, old, with only a few scattered lights.
I gasped and finally understood what Zhou and his son were going to do today.
They are going to blow up the family building of the Xiagong Automobile Factory. From here, it only takes five minutes to hit the family building. It’s too
late to call the police.
And there lived my parents.
Zhou Yunkai shook off my hand, got back into the car, and the door closed.
At the moment when the goalkeeper closed, I was so angry in my mind that I couldn’t
care about anything anymore.
With an arrow step, he got into the gap of the door and returned to the car.
“You want someone to bury you with you, don’t you?”
I stared at Zhou Fu in front of me.
“You don’t want to care about the people who live there at all, do you?” You
just want to die. You want to take so many people with you and bury them with your family! Don’t you ***ing
know that they are innocent?
I gritted my teeth and questioned Zhou Fu word by word.
Zhou Yunkai stopped me with a begging expression on his face.
He said: You go, Zhao Miao, leave it to me. Only then did I know that the last thing he said was to stop his father’s last act of dementia
and revenge against society.
Zhou Yunkai put his hands on my shoulders and pushed me under the car.
You go! What are you doing? Do you want to die?
I stared into Zhou Yunkai’s eyes and laughed out loud.
“My parents are sleeping in that building. I can’t leave.”
Say, I rushed to Zhou Fu, like crazy, to pull him out of the driver’s seat.
Pow!
In a flash, I was slapped by Zhou’s father and flew out, falling heavily on the driver’s seat,
with a burning pain on my face.
The car started again.
“I’m in charge of you. Is anyone in charge of us?” In his
eyes, Zhou’s father lost all patience, stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the family building
three streets away.
“Chou Yun-kai, help me!”
I shouted and rushed to Zhou Fu again, grabbing the steering wheel in his hand.
Then a hand reached out. It’s Zhou Yunkai.
He clenched his teeth and hugged Zhou Fu from the back of his seat. In the
struggle, the steering wheel changed hands several times, and we stumbled in the rickety bus
, bumping into seven meat and eight vegetables. In the
dim light, I heard the siren. It
was probably someone who noticed the bus
that had been lurching around but had been rushing to the family building.
“Zhao Miao!”
“Yes!”
“Here!”
As Zhou Yunkai’s voice fell, I looked up and saw him hand over
the life-saving hammer behind me.
I met his eyes in an instant.
His eyes were particularly firm.
I clenched the life-saving hammer and hit Zhou Fu’s head
hard in the shaking carriage!
Boom! Zhou Fu’s eyes became scattered in an instant, his body was limp, and he leaned back against the driver’s seat and fainted
.
I quickly took the steering wheel, stretched out my foot, and stepped on the brake.
One foot, two feet.
Bus, speed does not change.
On both sides, there are residential buildings.
I completely fell into despair, turned around, saw the anxious Zhou Yunkai, and shook
his head slowly.
The brake, it’s broken.
Just then, a sharp pain came from my right rib.
Lowering his head, it was Zhou Fu who woke up from a coma. His eyes were red, his hand was holding a knife, and
he cut through my right rib.
The blood won’t stop.
“Zhao Miao!”
I endured severe pain and was dragged behind by Zhou Yunkai.
He broke down and shouted, “Dad, stop it!”! Square Drive to the square! Let Zhao Miao go down! Let Zhao Miao go down!!!
However, the angry father of Zhou was no longer even in charge of the bus. He raised the
knife in his hand and cut Zhou Yunkai’s arms.
Shut up! Give it to your father. Shut up!
Think of your mother, little bastard! They must be buried with your mother!
With that, Zhou’s father no longer cared about us who had lost the ability to fight. With his eyes wide open, he held
the steering wheel and rushed to the family building of the Xiagong Automobile Factory.
As for me, I can only hold hands with Zhou Yunkai. Looking feebly at Zhou Fu in the driver
‘s seat, sometimes roaring, sometimes laughing, pulling his hoarse voice,
opening his irrational eyes, driving closer and closer to the family building.
“Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day?”
“As long as I live, Kuei-chin scolds me. Can you hear that?”.
Chou Yun-kai, can’t you hear? Your mother is crying!
“Your mother is watching you. Can’t you see it?”
“That’s your mother who cooked for us, and that’s your mother who left the light for us.
Don’t give it to your father. I forgot!”
That’s the backbone of our family, Chou Yun-kai. No one will pinch your father any more, and no
one will scold your father that I am a dead man. Whoo, whoo.. “Our home is gone, our home is gone, it’s all gone..” In the
Mercedes-Benz carriage, Zhou’s father held the steering wheel, loudly venting his pain and
his unwillingness to lose everything.
It was a cry that had been buried for more than ten years, which made his tears flow and his lips tremble.
No one is crazier or more powerful than him.
But, but.
“Don’t be mad, old madman!”
As the bus was only two blocks away from the family building, I began to roar with my last
strength.
“Why did you take my parents’ lives?”
However, Zhou’s father could hardly hear any sound.
His mouth trembled up and down, not knowing what he was muttering. Everything
is heading for the end of despair.
Just like the night I had a fever, I burned my ears, and the whole world collapsed. After
that day, what was it that saved me? In my
mind, I have begun to have confused
thoughts because I am infinitely close to death. Is it because of Zhou Yunkai, that dead child, and I, this isolated island, help each other in the cracks of the
sea of people, survive? Did you learn boxing
because you were afraid of bullying?
Is it because of that sentence?
Twelve years ago, on the Ashram.
The master rubbed a stubborn girl with a pouting mouth and put the Taoist robe on her body.
“The most effective way to defeat a man is to break his heart.”
23 Inside the
carriage, the silence of death spread.
I stared at Zhou Fu’s back.
How can we break his heart?
This kind of person, his heart, is really still beating?
If so, what is the weakness of his heart?
His family was torn apart and trapped in hatred for ten years. What does
he need? No one can save his wife, no one can atone for his sins, and his family is outside
the times and no one cares about it.
Because he knew that there was no hope for his family.
As he muttered, “Our home is gone, our home is gone, all
of it is gone..”
Suddenly, I caught it.
I’ve got him, his soft spot!
Hit it! Hit it! Just kill my parents like that! It doesn’t matter!
I started yelling.
Zhou Fu is still in a state of indifference.
Zhou Yunkai looked at me in disbelief.
I, on the other hand, gnashed my teeth at Chou’s father’s back and, with the greatest malice of the first half of my life,
screamed ferociously,
“Kill me!”! Right now! Killed Chou Yun-kai’s child!
I got it.
His weakness is home.
His weakness is his home, and he needs a hope. I can give him hope. Inside the
car, fell silent.
And the car is still speeding. It’s only half a block away
from the family building. It’s only
tens of meters.
I sat in the carriage and said slowly about the child.
I said, just after the college entrance examination, the small hotel in South Street was the first time for both of us.
I said, freshman year, sophomore year, summer vacation, winter vacation, we both did it, don’t you know?
I said, we also gave the baby a name. Do you know what it is?
“Damn it, you’ll never find out!” As soon as
the voice fell, I noticed that Zhou’s father finally stepped on the brake.
One, two..
Even though Zhou’s father stepped on the brakes faster and faster, it had no effect.
Finally, at the critical moment of hitting the family building, I saw
a calm expression on the side of Zhou’s father’s face. He turned the wheel.
It was a sharp turn at nearly a right angle, and my head hit the railing because of inertia, and there
was a sharp pain.
But I’m laughing.
If there is inertia, it means that the bus turns successfully.
Sure enough, when I looked up, I found that the bus had turned to another street.
That direction is the direction of the dilapidated automobile factory.
“Get off.”
Father Zhou only said one word.
I know that Zhou’s father wants to die.
No one can change it.
However, when I was helped up by Zhou Yunkai, I couldn’t help smiling
bitterly again.
Although I saw Zhou Fu’s hand, it was desperately pressing the button to open the door. However, the door
did not respond at all.
The car door is already broken. “It’s all right.”
Zhou Fu’s voice, has returned to a trace of reason.
He stretched out his hand and threw the long and narrow meat knife that he had been waving all night at us.
Zhou Yunkai took the knife, nodded to me, and cut the car door desperately.
Every time you cut a knife, you say one more word to me.
Zhao Miao, do you know that I still like you. I love you, but as you can see
.
I’m pretty bad. All the time. In the eyes of others, I am a bad seed.
Only in front of my father can I be an obedient child. But in front of you,
I feel like a normal person.
“You’re much better than me. I don’t deserve you, really. If I had another father,
maybe I would.”
“It’s all fate. There’s no way out.” When he
said these words, he seemed to be encouraging himself. Without saying a word, he riveted his strength
.
Finally, when all was said, the car door was completely cut off by him.
I poked my head out and saw that the wheels were on fire, and the police car behind the car was far away
, and I could see that the car was about to explode. I was so impatient that I jumped down like this.
As a result, Zhou Yunkai stopped me.
He took off his clothes and moved quickly, wrapping me up in layers, and finally straightening me up with his hands
.
“Remember me for a few more years, Zhao Miao.”
Zhou Yunkai pushed me away with both hands. The moment I
fell out of the car, I was completely stunned.
I thought he was going to jump out of the car with me.
I don’t know why, at the moment of falling off the car, my brain was empty, but my hearing became very clear in the past twelve
years.
Even the passage of time seems to have slowed down.
I saw Zhou Yunkai leaning against the car door, encircling his arms, his hair blown by the strong wind, but
his eyes looked at me firmly and freely. In the
wind, he looked at my falling body, turned his head, laughed loudly and said to Zhou Fu: “You
have no grandson!”! She lied to you! Smart, huh?
It was the first time I heard Zhou Fu’s hearty laughter: “I know!”!
Then, the poor sound system in the car played the music of the last century. In the melodious and old tape music, the bus crashed into the dilapidated automobile
factory building.
The flames splashed like fireworks.
This happened in 2008, the saddest and most brilliant year for the motherland.
A dust from the Northeast in 1996 drifted for 12 years, passed over my head
, and landed on the automobile factory in 1996. In the light of
the fire, I sat on the ground and let the police pull me up and take me to the hospital.
A year later, mobile phone short message alarm began to be implemented all over the country.
Two years later, the Sky Eye system has spread all over the country.
At that time, I graduated from university and my first internship was to do law popularization knowledge in the community.
In the same year, after work, I heard a band release a song.
One of the lyrics goes like this.
“Live like this for 30 years until the building collapses.”
“Darkness in the depths of the clouds, the landscape that drowns the heart.”
At that moment, two guilty figures appeared vaguely in my mind. I copied the lyrics in the book word by word, and finally, I wiped the tears on the paper with a smile.
27
and 12 years later, I was 32 years old, married and had children.
My husband, on the occasion of the New Year, went to the south and became one of the volunteers
to help the epidemic.
The rest of me and the ignorant children eat cold New Year’s Eve dinner. It began to snow outside the
house, and the children watched the Spring Festival Gala of the local satellite TV. In the program, the actors were
satirizing that people were now tied to the Internet.
At the same time, I miss the beauty of the simple life in the past.
So, the child suddenly asked me, so how are the adults in the last century?
I was stupefied, silent half a day, just say: Every times, have respective happy and
unhappy.
You’ll understand later.
Finished.
