stubborn miss

"Boy, it's really hard to fight." Under the moonlight, the man with his back to the light said to the boy sitting on the ground, panting heavily.

Just now, the boy fought one against ten, and even with a knife stuck in his stomach, he scared off the last three people.

"However, as a wild dog, you still have to have this survival instinct."

The boy clutched his stomach and wanted to stand up, but he lost his strength just after supporting it with one hand.

"Hey, old man." The boy said to the man standing in the dark who couldn't see his face clearly, "If you have time, please call the police. I'm dying."

The man came out from the shadows, his appearance was ordinary, like a passer-by caught randomly, "Are you interested in following me from now on?"

Listen, listen carefully, you will hear a concerto played by insects in the wind, that is the sound that bewitches you.

"Then I'm leaving." Lin Zhongli stood in the living room and said to Wu Shaoyan.

"Let's go."

"You, come here." The man beckoned to Wu Shaoyan.

"What? Ah—"

As soon as he walked in, Lin Zhongli pulled him over vigorously, "I want to kiss. If I don't kiss, I won't leave."

"Idiot..." Wu Shaoyan turned the man's head aside and kissed his cheek.

"That's the end? Kissing is better, come on." The man closed his eyes, waiting for Wu Shaoyan's kiss.

Wu Shaoyan was so ashamed that he pushed the man out of the porch, "No, just a kiss."

But when the man was pushed out by him, he grabbed Wu Shaoyan and gave him a French kiss. "Oh, I'm not going to work anymore, let's continue." After finishing speaking, he was about to come in again, but was blocked by Wu Shaoyan, "Go to work quickly. The rest... come back and talk..." He felt his ears were so hot that they were about to burn .

"Really? What did you say? Don't go back on your word!"

Wu Shaoyan nodded and watched the man with a silly smile leave.

If only I could spend every day like this.

When Wu Shaoyan was thinking like this in his heart, the phone rang.Unexpectedly, the janitor of the nursing home called so soon, his heart beat wildly, and he pressed the answer button, "Hello, uncle, is someone here?"

The answer was a familiar voice, "Boy, that's fine, you've hidden it deep enough!" The person who answered the phone should be Sheng Tianping, he remembered this person's voice. "Come here in half an hour, don't bring the police with you, and you don't want to take another life!" Sheng Tianping hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Wu Shaoyan took out the knife he had prepared long ago, took a taxi and reported the address of the nursing home.

When he arrived at the nursing home, the uncle in the concierge was trembling, being controlled by a man with three scars across his left eye.He looked around, "Where's Sheng Tianping?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to think that you are so different from us after changing your job. But the tone of your speech is still so annoying." Scarface pushed the uncle away and took out a pair of blindfolds. "Take it. I'll take you to the boss."

Wu Shaoyan was wearing a blindfold and was calculating the driving route in the car. The speed of the car was not fast. He felt that the car stopped after turning a few turns.

"It's here, don't take off the blindfold." Scarface's voice was mixed with an echo.They walked forward for about 50 meters. The place was very empty, and the echo sounded closely following their footsteps.

Scarface stopped, and after a while, a pair of hands groped around him.The hidden knife was searched out by someone, and the person sneered, "I've become a lot more stupid after amnesia, when will we fight again? I think your chances of winning are very low."

Then they entered a very noisy place, and the blindfold was taken off his face.This is a dance hall, full of drunken people who come here for a night of carnival.Sheng Tianping was sitting in the private room waiting for him.

Sheng Tianping was older than in his dream, but he was still ordinary, not at all like a person who had done so many dirty things.

After seeing Wu Shaoyan, Sheng Tianping stood up, "Boy, long time no see. Thanks to you, I'm still alive and well."

Um?What does it mean?

The two of them sat down, bowed to Sheng Tianping with Scarface, then backed out and closed the door.Sheng Tianping picked up a cigarette and lit it in front of Wu Shaoyan. The smoke was facing him, rushing towards him. "I heard that you lived with that kid recently?"

"It wasn't him who made the report. Didn't you already confiscate the USB flash drive on his body?" He anxiously defended Lin Zhongli, and on the other hand secretly turned on his cell phone, wanting to call the police station and ask them to trace the phone number.

"Of course he wasn't the one who made the report. Isn't it you who made the report?" No, Qing Sheng?Wu Shaoyan's head began to ache.

Sheng Tianping's face became fierce, and that face could still make such an expression, "I've raised you for so long, but I never thought that a dog would bite its owner so hard."

Sheng Tianping looked at Wu Shaoyan with a sinister smile, "Amnesia is such a good thing? It's great not to remember anything! Then, baby, don't you remember?" Sheng Tianping took out his phone and swiped a few times with his hand. Next, turned it over and handed it to him.Inside was a video of the girl in the white dress in his memory being tied up, with big tears hanging down her face, and shouting "Dad" loudly.The memory of the girl in his head suddenly became clear.

Holding the candy he gave, the girl spread out her small hands and came to him with an injured arm, "Dad."

The girl's tears dripped down in strings, feeling sorry for his injury.

Wu Shaoyan patted the girl's head, "Ninny, I'm fine, it's just my arm, it doesn't hurt. Just keep these candies."

"Father." The girl put down the candy, ran into his arms, and breathed into his arms carefully, as if that way he wouldn't feel any more pain.

"That child cried very hard when she died, and kept calling you, but what about you, you abandoned her for another person." Is that girl dead?Or, die because of him?

Sheng Tianping took out a brass candlestick wrapped in a plastic bag and threw it on the table.There were a lot of mottled dark red bloodstains on the bottom of the candlestick, and there was a bloody handprint left by a hand in the middle of the candlestick.Wu Shaoyan's blood froze, and the murder weapon in his dream finally appeared in front of him. "What? Do you think we can't produce evidence if you don't do it?"

Sheng Tianping blew a smoke ring onto his face, "Let's make a deal again! If you come back to be my dog, I won't send you to prison. I will keep that kid's life."

"Why should I trust you?" He suddenly felt dizzy.

Sheng Tianping looked at him and laughed, "Do you know why my daughter died?"

"Because you didn't listen to me."

Sheng Tianping extinguished the cigarette.Before his eyes, the man became a ghost.

"If you had killed Lu Zhansheng back then, we would have had our own way to protect you, and maybe we could have given you this child. But you, for that kid, not only betrayed us, but also abandoned this child."

His headache got worse, and Sheng Tianping's voice sounded again, "My daughter's heart, Mrs. Seaman gave us a very good price."

He fell weakly on the table, knocked over the wine glass that was on the table, the liquid spilled on the opposite side, Sheng Tianping stood up.Wu Shaoyan wanted to grab Sheng Tianping, but he couldn't even lift his hand.

Sheng Tianping walked over, and his voice got closer, "I raised you, not only treating you like a dog, but also treating you as my brother, my son, and my successor, but you have completely disappointed me."

The man snatched the connected mobile phone from his hand and pressed the power off button. "If you're still not obedient, go ask that kid, during the autopsy, did you see a little girl without a heart?" Sheng Tianping's voice drifted farther and farther away, and he left the private room.But his consciousness is being peeled off bit by bit.I feel like I am returning to the darkness little by little.

"You...why...you came here suddenly?" Lin Zhongli was wearing work clothes, looking at him in surprise, who was sweating profusely.After waking up from the open space outside the sanatorium, he ran to the funeral home non-stop, and broke into the dissection room regardless of others' obstruction.

The dissecting room smelled of disinfectant and a stench peculiar to corpses.Lin Zhongli was holding a scalpel and scratching something in the chest cavity of a fresh-looking corpse.Seeing him coming, he hurriedly covered the corpse, "Get out, you will faint when you see it." Wu Shaoyan ignored him, he had seen enough corpses.He grabbed Lin Zhongli and wanted to speak, but he couldn't form words. He tried to move his lips several times, and after a long while, he squeezed out two words, "Nan... Nan..."

After Lin Zhongli explained the good things, he took Wu Shaoyan to the columbarium where unclaimed corpses were stored. "Several of them were not claimed at the time, and they had already been cremated after the statute of limitations expired." Outside Fang Fang's urn, there are photos of those people taken at the funeral parlor after they saw the light of day. beyond repair.He found a photo of the little girl on the rows of urns, the last photo she took in this world.Her eyes were closed tightly, and her body was covered with bruises. Compared with the others, she seemed to have died not long ago.If it weren't for the bruises on her body and the pale complexion that no living person would have, she would have seemed to be asleep.

"After the autopsy, we can confirm that the time of her death was the day after your car accident. Xiaoyan, who is this girl? Do you remember?"

His head hurt so badly, the pain was unbearable.Wu Shaoyan held his head, exhausted all his strength, and roared out in pain.

It was himself who abandoned the little girl who could only trust him, talk to him, and smile at him.

The little girl in a white dress had been hiding in the grass, but he was spotted by the sharp-eyed passing by, "Child? What are you doing there?"

"Come on, come here." Wu Shaoyan tempted the child with the candy he brought from the doorman.

The little girl came over timidly. He peeled off the candy and stuffed it into the girl's mouth.That sweet candy made the girl smile and have a good laugh.

"Father." The girl spoke softly the only voice she could make to Wu Shaoyan.
