Tomb Raiders Notes: If Innocence Had a Brother

When the flight resumed, the four of them went their separate ways. I followed Wu Xie back to Hangzhou.

Before leaving, we went to the military medical clinic to find Aning. The doctor said that he had been picked up by a group of foreigners in the storm a few days ago. The doctor thought that we were together, and the strong wind blew down the phone line, so we never contacted him.

I want to ask the doctor whether Aning walked awake or unconscious. I also felt that asking such an inexplicable question attracted attention. In fact, I was quite afraid that Aning would wake up and find that he had failed to draw water from a bamboo basket.

Even though I had made up my mind not to admit it before I came here, I would inevitably feel panicked.

In the hotel toilet, I checked the things found on Aning's body. The bell was filled with glue so it didn't ring. Inside the small box was a pill.

I put the elixir in the palm of my hand, thinking about it, and then my hand shook. Oh my god, this couldn't be the corpse turtle elixir.

When I thought that there might be a Corpse Turtle King inside, I quickly put the things back into the box, rushed out of the toilet and washed my hands for ten minutes.

After setting off from Haikou Airport, Wu Xie and I were lying on the sofa four hours later.

Early the next morning, Wu Xie woke me up. I glanced at the alarm clock beside my bed. It was only half past seven.

I wailed, "Are you a Zhou Papi?"

Wu Xie kicked me in the butt. Ever since I had the injury on my head, Wu Xie started to kick my butt whenever I disagreed. "Get up quickly, do you think I'm willing? It's so early in the morning."

I didn't even eat breakfast and went straight to the city hospital while sitting in my little gold cup. It was already noon when this set was finished. The two of them ate, squinted for a while, and went to get the results again in the afternoon.

When everything was normal, we both breathed a sigh of relief.

On the way back, Wu Xie and I were discussing going there to eat for a while, and a call came in. When I looked at the caller ID, I saw no one in sight, so I said to Wu Xie, "Our dad."

Wu Xie parked the van on the side of the road with trembling hands.

"Hey, Dad. How are you lately? Haha." I turned on the speakerphone.

"Thanks to your brother and you, I almost died of anger. Come back here tomorrow!" After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Wu Xie and I looked at each other and read two words from each other's eyes: It's over.

On the train home the next day, because it was not the peak season, there were only two of us in the box.

"Brother, didn't Third Uncle's guy say he hasn't come back? Let's just pass the blame on Third Uncle." I said while taking something out of my bag.

"If Third Uncle finds out, you won't be afraid of getting beaten again." Wu Xie replied as he kept turning over the bronze fish in his hand.

"Hey, my dear brother, don't worry about the fish in your hand. Whether you can escape today depends on me." As I said that, I gave Wu Xie the thing in my hand.

"What's going on today?" Wu Xie looked at the bandages and gauze in his hands.

"Hehe, today's drama is called the Suffering Meat Scheme."

Wu Yiqiong was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, planning to give it a good beating when his two brats came back.

But when they met, Wu Yiqiong was stunned. Who was this brat with a head wrapped like a rice dumpling in front of him?

"Dad, I'm back."

Oh, it turned out to be the unfilial younger son.

When we arrived in the living room, Wu Xie and I stood aside honestly. Maybe I looked too miserable. Wu Yiqiong's hand when lighting the cigarette trembled slightly, and he waved his big hand to indicate that you two little bastards should sit down and talk.

Wu Xie said, Dad, Wu Kang and I just went for a walk. I didn't find my third uncle, so I came up again. The reason why we lost contact was that we happened to encounter a typhoon and the signal was interrupted.

Father Wu pointed at my head. What, your brother let a typhoon blow up into the sky and then fell down, and his head was smashed like this?

Wu Xie brought up my excuse at the health center again, saying that I accidentally knocked my head on the bottom of the boat when I came up.

Father Wu clicked, as if he was pulling out a dry cigarette.

Wu Xie stayed for two days and went back on the pretext that something happened at the shop in Hangzhou. Although I was eager to return home, this time Father Wu said nothing and would not let him go.

The original words are as follows: "Your brother is just like that in society, at least he won't suffer. You are still young, there is still hope."

Before Wu Xie left, he said sincerely that the little brother should accept the reform well, change his ways as soon as possible, and strive to be a new person.

For me, it’s just a change of place, eating and drinking, sleeping during the day, and watching TV shows at night.

On the fourth day when I was sleeping so hard, my father couldn't bear it anymore and packed me up and gave me to my second uncle.

That afternoon I packed my bags and checked into my second uncle's small western-style house.

"Xiaokang, my second uncle also heard what your dad said about you. What your dad means is to make you realize your mistakes. Tell me, what do you think you did wrong?" As soon as I came here, my second uncle said: I have a problem.

"Second uncle, I'm also worried about the safety of third uncle. I follow my brother in a hurry and don't care. I'm too impatient and do things recklessly." I racked my brains and came to a conclusion.

The second uncle nodded, "You have a very upright attitude. You can stay here with the second uncle first to temper your temper, and then go back in a few days."

Who knew that this grind would only last two months.

In the past two months, I trained with the guards for one hour at 5:30 in the morning, mainly running. The rest of the time, my second uncle ignored me. But you still have to report to the gate guard when you go out.

I had nothing to do, except for making daily calls to Wu Xie, playing chess with the janitor, or simply sleeping in the pavilion.

I saw that Uncle Zhang, the doorman, was more diligent than my second uncle.

Uncle Zhang, whose real name is Zhang Tiezhu, was said to have followed his second uncle back then. He had little to rely on when he got old, so his second uncle arranged for someone to look after the gate. It is said that they are looking at the gate. There is a special night patrol at night. During the day, there is Xiao Li from the guard team accompanying him in the guard room.

When I lived with my second uncle, I insisted on getting up every day to exercise; second, I called Wu Xie every day.

"What's the matter? Are you checking your brother's post every day?" Wu Xie asked me through the receiver, calling Ha Qie.

I looked at the clock on the wall. It said one o'clock in the afternoon. "Brother, you didn't just get up, did you?"

There was silence on the other side of the phone... "Hey, what are you talking about? The signal is not good."

I turned on the casual thinking mode: "You know what? I'm at my second uncle's place, and I have to go for a run at 5:30 every day. If I can't get up, those beasts will drag me out of the bedroom and continue running."

For a person whose biological clock is out of whack all year round, nothing is more difficult than getting up early. On the fourth day of morning training, I overslept. The captain of the guard, with two people, lifted me out of bed and went straight to the training ground.

That day I wore pajamas and slippers and ran ten kilometers. Those inhuman guys were hanging behind me one by one, watching the whole process.

The second time, I learned a lesson and locked the door before going to bed. As a result, in the morning, I heard two bangs and the door was kicked open.

Those few people once again took me to the training ground while I was sleeping.

The third time... As the old saying goes, fighting with others is endless fun. That night, I sat on the bed with a ferocious look on my face, looking at the blocked bedroom door, half of my face hidden in the shadows, and laughed like a ghost:

"Hahahahahaha, hehehe, Ouhoho."

Early the next morning, I was still dreaming about the captain of the guard jumping outside my door. I am so happy, so happy, I look up to the sky and laugh. I heard someone laughing twice next to me.

I opened my eyes and saw the captain looking at me with a bright face.

I shouted: "Mom!! Yeah!!!" and pulled the quilt over my head.

It's not my fault, it really isn't my fault! In my previous life, when I was a girl, when something happened, my first reaction was to shout for help, mom, and then wait for my omnipotent mother to descend from the sky.

I still remember that the wind was very noisy that day, and my Crayon Shin-chan pajamas were still shining on the training ground.

Wearing slippers and shuffling, he ran to the captain's side and said, "May I ask what kind of hero this hero is?"

The captain grinned, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Not talented, a former member of the special forces team."

My expression was extremely serious, I cupped my fists and said, "I'm sorry."

The captain returned with a smile: "You're welcome."

As the old saying goes, he who knows the current affairs is a hero. The next day, I wore the team uniform and went out to practice honestly. But the captain looked at me with a hint of resentment. I thought to myself, I have obeyed the arrangements honestly, why are you still not satisfied? Could it be that the captain is a jerk...

I grabbed the person next to me and said, "Captain, what's going on? I arrived very early today."

The man burst out laughing.

It turned out that yesterday, the captain thought I would block the door, so he led someone to climb up from the first floor and climb through the window. Then they saw me hugging the quilt and giggling in my dream, but none of them expected that I was frightened early in the morning and shouted out a word that shocked the world: Mom!

So the news spread that the captain was called mom by Mr. Wu's nephew.

After hearing this, I thought to myself, what is this?
