Give a bellflower to the drowning ghost

124

The first to wake up is the ranger.

He first felt his heart beating fast, and then found that his vision was dark, and he tried to touch his eyes, but his hands and feet were bound, something was stuffed in his mouth, and someone stepped on him.

Rangers felt the vehicle's bumps in the road, and the cabin smelled sickly of diesel.

Not Wang Ze's car with the carpet.

"This one is awake," said a voice.

The ranger tensed uncontrollably.

He remembered that Wang Ze got out of the car and walked listlessly into the destination he should have been expecting for a long time.Then Bodyguard Chen asked him if he wanted something to drink, and showed him the location of the small refrigerator in the car...

He was then attacked with a taser.

He didn't know how long he had been in a coma, but he woke up once in a daze, with a strange smell of reagents in his mouth and nose, and he could vaguely hear people's conversations.

"Cut it off and throw it away," the man said again.

"No, it's too early to be discovered by the police. Wait a minute, it's okay." Chen's bodyguard's voice sounded.

The ranger felt his face being slapped by a palm, and the bodyguard Chen's voice said over his head, "Shh, be good."

The ranger turned his head unconsciously, trying to find Wang Ze's breath.

Bodyguard Chen smiled.

He said, "I didn't expect you to have such a good relationship."

After the ranger counted two hours to his heartbeat, the car stopped.He was dragged out of the car like a cargo and thrown to the ground.He didn't dare to breathe, and listened to the sounds around him with tense nerves.

Bodyguard Chen's voice was very calm: "Wake up if you're addicted to drugs, it's time to make a movie."

There were a few murmurs of obscenities coming from all around.

Equipment dragging sound.

The sound of hard-soled leather shoes rubbing against the concrete floor.

The gate not far away seemed to be closed, and then there was the sound of the keyhole turning.

Bodyguard Chen's voice suddenly rang in the ranger's ear: "It's boring, let's watch it together to relieve boredom." Following his words, the ranger's blindfold was taken off.

The ranger first saw him in a place similar to a warehouse. The walls seemed to be patchworked with old and new materials, and dust-sealed instruments and materials were piled up in the corners.An industrial explosion-proof lamp provided the only light source. Under the light bulb, two men in work clothes were busy with something, and Wang Ze sat between them.

Like the forest rangers, Wang Ze was also covered with cloth strips. He was still wearing the clothes he had in the morning, but one of his shoes was missing.His face was flushed, his pupils dilated, tears flowed all over his face, and his whole body was trembling at a frequency beyond the scope of fear.His eyes kept wandering, but he didn't fall on the two men who tied him to the stool at all.

The ranger heard Chen's bodyguard smile and said: "It seems that the young master has never tasted this kind of low-level 'snack'. The physiological reaction is really great."

The ranger reacted immediately.

It's drugs.

Bodyguard Chen was fiddling with the camera while talking to the man beside him: "I didn't expect them to like the young master so much, and even gave him 'snacks'."

The man smiled and said, "The eldest young master who is well-developed by his mother's womb makes people angry just looking at him."

The ranger managed to see through the cracks in the warehouse that it was getting dark.And there is a unique cool breath in the air.He had no interest in the outside world before, and he didn't know the mountains in this city at all.

After many years, Wang Ze was once again used for kidnapping and blackmail.

126

After filming, one man left, and the remaining two strangers found a tattered sofa to lie down on, took out a piece of paper that looked like a postage stamp, and licked it.The rest of Chen's bodyguards were checking Wang Ze's condition.He opened Wang Ze's eyelids and waved in front of him again, but Wang Ze was still convulsed, turning a blind eye to everything around him.The forest ranger was disturbed to find that the sweat on Wang Ze's body had already soaked his whole body.

Bodyguard Chen smiled, turned around and said to the ranger, "We are the only ones who can chat now."

He said, "Come to talk?"

Bodyguard Chen was no different from "Xiao Chen". He moved a stool and sat next to the ranger, in a state of excitement of a successful prank, and couldn't wait to share his emotions with the ranger.

He has accosted me several times, proving that he is interested in me.

I want to keep the interest going, make him dance to my beat.

Just like a writer would do.

The ranger breathed evenly and nodded slowly.

127

Bodyguard Chen suddenly laughed and said, "Other people lick stamps for fun, but the young master doesn't seem to have any fun."

The ranger's heart tightened.

Wang Ze seemed to be in a very bad state, the effect of the hallucinogen reached its peak, and he was short of breath, as if he had fallen into an extremely terrifying vicious experience.

128

The school bell rings.

In a daze, Wang Ze realized that he was back in middle school. He was about to secretly write a letter to the writer with a pen and paper from a drawer, but the teacher pushed the door open and came in.

The teacher wore an expensive suit and stomped on high heels.She wrote two words on the blackboard:

aims.

Wang Ze discovered that the teacher had his mother's face.

The "teacher" mother said: "Everyone, we have started class! Today's theme is everyone's goals and ideals. Please express your opinions."

Ada, a classmate in the first row, stood up and spoke: "I want to sell the time-honored brand of lachang from my ancestors, and then open a boutique that will lose money at first sight!"

Girl who voluntarily committed suicide said: "Me! I was going to kill myself! But I failed! Now I decided to run away from home with money from strangers!"

Chen Baobao, a classmate at the next table, said: "My previous ideal was to buy a house without the help of my family. Now I want to sell my high school classmates, and then take the ransom to become rich."

The father and classmate in school uniform said: "I want to have a son with a woman I don't love, inherit the family business and take care of my lover."

The uncle and classmate lying on the table said: "Can you talk about ideals that cannot be realized? I want to have incest with my own sister, and now I have the same wish."

The classmate of the forest ranger who was sitting upright said: "I want to be a volunteer responsible for checking whether others are qualified to commit suicide. If the other party is qualified, I have to help him die."

"Teacher" mother said: "Everyone's goal is great! Teacher's goal has been achieved, it is to marry someone who doesn't love for money, and to carry on the family line for my old-fashioned father!"

Bodyguard Chen raised his hand: "Teacher, Wang Ze hasn't spoken yet!"

The eyes of all the students fell on Wang Ze in unison.

129

Wang Ze hesitated and said, "Uh... I want to do the right thing, not interfere with my parents' relationship, not hurt my friends, study hard, and be financially independent as soon as possible..."

The mother flicked the pointer: "No, classmate Wang Ze, this is not your goal, it's just your standard for yourself."

Uncle said: "You can start from your preferences and think carefully."

My father said: "Even if it is a hobby that is not recognized by social morals, as long as it doesn't break the law, it doesn't matter, just be happy."

Wang Ze said with difficulty: "My hobby...reading."

Chen's bodyguard complained: "Teacher, he lied! He just reads to pass the time!"

Mother said: "Student Wang Ze, maybe you can start with your parents' expectations of you?"

The father said: "His parents didn't have any expectations of him at all. If you analyze it from an emotional level, he has no parents at all."

Bodyguard Chen said: "But he has money, he was born with money."

The uncle sneered and said, "Can his parents' money be his money? Don't forget how many illegitimate children his father has. Besides, what's wrong with having money? No matter how much he spends it, it can't fill the void in his heart." Bar."

Ada said: "He has a degree, he looks good, and he is in good health."

The mother said: "Of course it doesn't count. He just maintains these according to the standard, but it doesn't bring him positive emotions. The traits that he can't feel proud of are not his own."

The girl who voluntarily committed suicide said to the ranger: "Isn't he still full of great truths? He said the right things with a good boy's face."

Bodyguard Chen interjected, "That's why he can speak confidently to others. Look at him, he can't even fart when he puts it on himself."

The girl giggled: "That's true, it makes sense, it's always for others to hear."

Ada also laughed: "He still thinks I'm ruining the family business, oh, I'm laughing so hard, he didn't even think about ruining it."

Chen's bodyguard said: "While talking about hating such a family, at the same time salivating and swiping the card, I feel disgusted when I see it."

Mother tapped the blackboard with a pointer: "Students, please don't digress, now we are discussing whether Wang Ze has ideals or not."

Ada said: "No!"

"There is no normal family relationship either," said the father.

Bodyguard Chen said: "Friends also betrayed him."

The uncle said: "Simply put, no one loves him, and the only person who trusts him actually doesn't take him seriously."

The girl who volunteered to commit suicide said: "There is no belief that can convince myself."

Wang Ze was confused: "Then what do I have?"

Everyone in the classroom looked at each other.

It was the mother who woke up everyone:

"He at least has an unfillable hole in his heart, and no amount of doing the right thing can bring satisfaction."

The uncle responded: "Yes, he has no target, and he goes to the writer when he panics. When the writer dies, he clamors to catch the real culprit. If he finds that there is no real culprit, he finds me. Things that he knew early on There is nothing to ask, and you still expect me to bring some changes to him, it’s funny.”

Bodyguard Chen said innocently: "At least he brought me money."

My father said, "It doesn't count if I say it all."

Mother said: "Okay, that is to say, we have reached a conclusion. Wang Ze has a lot—"

"As empty as a writer."

There was thunderous applause.

The ranger stood up: "After my review, you are qualified to commit suicide."

"Others think you have everything, but you think you have nothing, you can't change other people's minds, you can only painfully accept others' incomprehension and jealousy of you."

Bodyguard Chen added: "And kidnapping."

The ranger said: "These are not the most terrible things. What makes you unbearable is that you can't find the need to endure them and live. You, like a writer, have no expectations for the future."

The girl who volunteered to commit suicide said: "Other people's life is life, and your own life is worthless. This is actually a very common point of view. You have struggled for a long time, and you have been trying to maintain the illusion of normality. Are you suffering from depression? Are you afraid to go to the doctor?"

The ranger made a concluding gesture: "It's okay, I'm very experienced in this area, trust my judgment."

"You can go with the writer."

Wang Ze struggled and said: "No, I still have you, you promised that you would accompany me to finish this trip."

The ranger said gently: "It's over, it's over, you don't have another destination to go to. Besides—"

"Isn't the purpose of your coming to see me just to follow him?"

The school bell rang.
