I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

Footsteps approached the door.

Xu Jiao's attention is all on the memory of the receiving system. The process of receiving the memory only takes a moment, but it takes a little longer to digest it carefully. Nauseous, disgusting stuff.

The key is inserted into the door-hole, and someone presses the doorknob—

Immediately afterwards, the solid dark wooden door made a slight sound, and a tall figure appeared behind the opened door, Xu Jiao's eyes met Xu Hankai's.

The man was visibly taken aback by the death stare.

In the past, when he went out, Xu Jiao would always be in the corner of the house, either looking at the little train or playing with building blocks. When he heard the sound of the door opening, he would be a little stimulated and would throw the things in his hands out. Because the child never pays attention to the people around him, and rarely responds, Xu Hankai didn't realize that Xu Jiao's eyes were so dark and lifeless until now, which seemed a bit penetrating at first glance.

The smile on his face froze instinctively.

There was also a thump in my heart reflexively.

Before the door was closed, his gentle voice had already entered the room: "Jiaojiao, Dad is back."

Xu Jiao remained motionless.

Xu Hankai's footsteps seemed to be fixed in place. It took him a long time to think of something, and he moved to the side. Fortunately, Xu Jiao didn't follow his movement and averted her eyes, still looking at the original direction, not knowing what to do. What was he thinking again? Seeing her like this, Xu Hankai instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.

startle him.

The dead child's eyes were ghostly just now, and his back was dripping with cold sweat. He almost thought that what he had done in the past had been discovered, but he recalled it and thought it was impossible.

What the doctor said last time is still echoing in his ears, and the diagnosis report is still in the drawer in the house. The dead child's illness can only become more serious, and it will develop in a crazy direction. It is just a dream to recover.

He closed the door outside the living room.

With the soft closing sound, the air in the corridor and the room suddenly stagnated, and there was an inexplicable and strange atmosphere, which made people feel horrible for no reason, as if they were locked up.

But Xu Jiao wasn't afraid at all.

She even maintained the posture of a wooden figure very leisurely, staring at the door of the house, sorting out her memories——

Xu Hankai has always been very secretive.

Because of his trust in him, there has never been a camera installed at home. In addition, Xu Jiao's mother is worried about the leakage of personal information these days, and she is quite opposed to installing a camera at home, so this matter has not been brought up for a long time. schedule.

But her mother wasn't defenseless at first.

At first, when she was young, there was a nanny at home. To some extent, the nanny and Xu Hankai completely supervised each other.

Xu Hankai felt this kind of defense. He looked at a very good face, but in fact he was sensitive and suspicious. He just felt that women in this world are not good things. He is inferior to these so-called successful women only in power. What's more, he thinks women are stupid, as long as he hooks his hands, there is no woman he can't get.

Sure enough, as long as he shows a little thoughtfulness and care, Xu's mother, who has been shouldering Xu Jiao's burden all year round and is under great work pressure, will rely on him.

At that time, he simply hated this child and thought she was a burden. He had seen Xu Jiao's mother put all her heart and soul into her, and thought that as long as Xu Jiao was around, this woman would not be able to give birth to her own child. How could this be possible? Woolen cloth?

He started to tamper with the things the nanny had prepared for Xu Jiao.

The first is a newly purchased baby clothes.

There is a needle buried in a secret place inside.

After Xu Jiao put it on, she burst into tears. The nanny didn't know why, so she could only hug and coax her. When Xu's mother found out, there were some blood spots on the back of Xu Jiao's neck. After hearing the news, Xu's mother scolded the nanny. , and because it was new clothes, I personally went to the merchant to argue, but the merchant refused to admit that there was a problem with the goods, and the nanny also refused to admit that she had not checked carefully.

The second one was taking care of Xu Jiao, Xu Hankai quietly mixed the temperature of the milk powder for Xu Jiao into boiling water, and the nanny took Xu Jiao out at that time, thinking that he had already tested the temperature in the thermos before going out , and fed the child directly, but in the middle of the action, the water glass was knocked over, scalding Xu Jiao's hand.

The sound of her crying could be heard all over the park.

Several nannies failed to take care of the children one after another, and Xu's mother was a little annoyed. Xu Hankai was just watching from the sidelines, and didn't really interfere in taking care of the children. When Xu's mother couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was crying because of the child, she suddenly suggested:

"Would you like me to take care of Jiaojiao?"

"Those nannies are always outsiders. How can they take good care of the children? If you are not at ease, I will accept supervision. You can see the effect after half a month. If it is good, don't hire a nannies and give the children to me Well, this will save you a lot of expenses, and your work pressure will not be so great."

Xu's mother was moved by his thoughtful words, and asked him to try it dubiously, but found that he took better care of her than herself. After all, she was holding the child once, because of Xu Jiao's sudden struggle, causing All of a sudden, Xu Jiao lost all strength in her arm and fell to the ground.

That was the time Mother Xu regretted the most.

But the good times didn't last long. Not long after Xu Hankai took over the child, Xu Jiao was found to be autistic. Although she was old enough to speak, she was unwilling to speak, and would suddenly become irritable and tend to hurt herself. .

Because of this, Xu's mother wrapped up all the table corners in the house, and then added a layer of sponge-like material to the walls, which could absorb sound and prevent Xu Jiao from bumping into the wall suddenly.

Even the toys are carefully selected.

But even if all the tables at home were replaced with plastic toy tables, Xu's mother and Xu Hankai would feel wronged while eating, but they still couldn't do it. Xu Jiao would scream suddenly, unwilling to see a little change in the surrounding environment, otherwise So sensitive, and refused to go out, unable to meet strangers.

Therefore, Xu's mother reduced social activities as much as possible, and even if she had to do it sometimes, she would put all these outside the house. As soon as she got home, she would patiently sit next to Xu Jiao and talk with her for a while talk.

only……

Later, Xu Jiao couldn't even bear the family sitting beside her.

Mother Xu was very sad.

She didn't know that all of this was caused by Xu Hankai.

This man's methods became more cruel every time.

At first, he just used words to express the malice of the whole world to Xu Jiao. He often used the patient, meticulous, and gentle voice that the doctor ordered, and when Xu Jiao was immersed in her own world, he sat by the child's side for an entire afternoon. , he would use a storytelling tone and say softly:

"Xu Jiao, why are you still alive?"

"Do you know how stupid that woman is? She gave birth to a fool like you, but didn't strangle you to death, and made you live in this world. You are your mother's drag, a burden, and a burden. It's rubbish."

"Oh, you don't remember the word that woman, do you? Let me tell you, your mother is a bitch."

"Guess when she will find out my true face? She is so stupid, she won't pick any man who is good-looking, but she is also bad, and she will die for someone like me who works so hard to take care of her garbage, you Said, when you die, will she be overly sad and follow along, leaving all her property to me?"

……

Children are the most sensitive to emotions.

Even if he didn't understand what Xu Han said, he could still feel the maliciousness in that smiling tone vividly. Xu Hankai not only scolded her himself, but also electronically synthesized her mother's voice with some ugly insults in the TV series, and put them on the screen. On the phone, let Xu Jiao listen to it if there is anything to do, so she resisted even her mother's voice.

But no one will know why.

Everyone just thought the sensitive, mute-like autistic child was getting worse.

But this did not satisfy Xu Hankai.

It wasn't enough to vent his malice towards Xu Jiao and her family with words. He couldn't hide the darkness in his heart when facing such an easily collapsed, screaming child with a pretty face.

When Xu Jiao hit her head on the ground because of her illness, he would laugh very happily and applaud beside him, as if watching a performance with great interest, but he seldom had a good time. After a few thuds, he would grab Xu Jiao's hair, pull her to the wall, slam her head against the wall, and say slowly while thumping:

"It's a pity that that bitch changed all the walls in the house."

"There is no sound at all, it's boring, you still don't let me down, call it louder, baby, so that I can have the motivation to continue."

Only when he heard Xu Jiao's screams approaching hoarseness, did he stop his hands unsatisfied, and then asked as if talking to himself: "How is it? You are such a strong child, you won't lose your mind so easily because of your father's mistake." Concussion, right? No way?"

Every time he spends his life like this, he will stop for a while.

No more hands.

It's just that when he starts to move, he will be more merciless every time. He likes to use words to force children to run away, lead people to the back of the bookshelf, and watch Xu Jiao knock down the bookshelf. Heavy books fell on the children one by one:

"One, two, three... Oh, this time I only won six books, no way, Jiaojiao, Dad won't be happy."

He would also secretly put some of the flavors she hated the most in Xu Jiao's meals, such as bitter or spicy, and he was willing to base all his happiness on the child's pain.

When Xu Jiao's illness gradually worsened——

Ye Zhen appeared.

She lived at the end of the corridor, and the window of her bedroom was facing the window of Xu Jiao's house. There was a very small gap to see the scene outside. She happened to see Xu Han's violence.

She wanted to save the child.

At this time, Xu's mother took a break from work because Xu Jiao was getting seriously ill, and stayed with her at home. She tried everything, but she didn't let the child get close to her. Finally, she followed the advice and bought a small animal to accompany her.

She bought Xu Jiao a puppy.

Ye Zhen came to the door at this time.

Because Xu's mother's business happened to deal with some properties of Ye Zhen's family, she had a good attitude towards Ye Zhen, but when she first found out that he was a neighbor and came to visit, she showed some embarrassment.

At that time Xu Jiao naturally resisted Ye Zhen's approach.

But Ye Zhen never offended her.

Every time she approached carefully, keeping a distance that Xu Jiao could accept but not too far, and talking to her with a smile, Xu's mother found that the child did not reject Ye Zhen's voice.

Just motionless as ever.

Because Xu's mother was also at home, Xu Hankai could no longer be as unscrupulous as before. He could only watch Xu Jiao go through a period of stability, and during that period, Ye Hao unilaterally warmed up with Xu Jiao, and later even Being able to take Xu Jiao out of the house for a short period of time, as long as the puppy is with her, can also allow Xu Jiao to stay in her house for a period of time without making any noise.

Ye Zhen is not stupid.

Hastily exposed Xu Hankai's true face, she is a girl who has just turned [-], she is not a match for a grown man at all, no one knows what he will do with a pervert like Xu Hankai.

She could only do her best to treat Xu Jiao better.

……

But the good times soon ended.

Xu Hankai extended his abnormality to animals.

One night, he opened the balcony door, threw Xu Jiao's puppy down the stairs, and watched the dog fall to the side of the road and die.

When Ye Zhen heard the news, when she went to Xu's house, her eyes were all on guard against Xu Hankai, but she never caught his criminal evidence, so she could only find excuses to bring Xu Jiao to her home, in case the other party did something wrong again. .

Xu's mother was still kept in the dark.

Seeing that Xu Jiao is getting better, she has the idea of ​​continuing to go to work. After all, she has a strong sense of professionalism, and she understands from her previous failed marriage that a woman can only protect herself if she becomes stronger. The person you want to protect.

then.

The first week of Xu's mother returning to work——

Ye Zhen happened to be going to Xu's house, and heard some small movements in the door, knowing that the sound insulation effect of Xu's house was good, so she could only keep knocking on the door, warning Xu Hankai, Xu Hankai was concerned about the relationship with the neighbors, and he hadn't cheated Xu's mother of all the money yet. , Naturally disguised well, opened the door and invited her in.

Ye Zhen warned him to be honest and safe, otherwise he would tell the world what he did.

Xu Hankai panicked, because of the perverted direction of depression in his heart, he kept doing nothing, and was stimulated by Ye Zhen's words, so he raised his hand to pinch her, pressed her against the window, and warned her to be honest, but Ye Zhen was unwilling. Being restrained by him, he touched an empty clay basin by the window with his backhand and slapped it on his head. Xu Hankai pushed her down in anger.

……

"Little bitch, what will I feed you today? En?"

Xu Han went back to the house in a good mood and changed his clothes, threw all the evidence of cheating into the washing machine, walked out in a good mood, and said the most vicious words in his usual gentle voice.

Xu Jiao slowly turned around to look at him.

Xu Hankai's heart skipped a beat for a second somehow.

Could Xu Jiao understand what he said?

Xu Jiao glanced at him indifferently——

After a few seconds.

There was a soft "boom" on the spot, and his head hit the carpet near the table.

Xu Hankai fell there unconsciously, as if in a coma.

The voice of the system sounded in Xu Jiao's mind: "Huh? The aura of heaven and earth in this world is very weak. How did you do it?"

Xu Jiao raised her hand and yawned slowly, and decided to go to the kitchen to see what to eat to reward herself. At the same time, she answered the system slowly in her mind: "It's not that I need to have aura, it's just that there are people around me who are suffering." Living creatures."

As she said that, she casually looked back to see the spider plant leaves that fell from someone's house on the balcony. The previously vibrant green had now turned into a withered yellow that lost its nutrition.

The system asked again: "Did you use your spirit to create a dream for him? Isn't this a bit cheap for him?"

Xu Jiao hadn't heard such an emotional speech from the system for a long time, so she smiled, "Really?"

……

Xu Hankai still doesn't know what happened.

He stood still on the spot, and realized that Xu Jiao just glanced at him, and didn't do anything else. He couldn't hold back for a moment, went up and slapped the child on the head, and then heard the girl crying loudly. Amidst the sound, he pulled her hair happily, and led the girl to the dining table.

He made a bowl of bitter gourd bibimbap for Xu Jiao. Hearing Xu Jiao's crying, he picked up the spoon and stuffed it into Xu Jiao's mouth spoon by spoon. He didn't smile until the crying was blocked:

"You're so good. Dad likes you when you're not talking."

Then, he put the fish in the bowl into his mouth in a good mood, and after chewing a few mouthfuls, he swallowed the delicious fish, but suddenly there was a sharp pain in his throat!

Xu Hankai desperately opened his mouth wide like a dying fish, wanted to breathe, and reached out to dig out the contents of his throat, but in vain he found that the saliva mixed with blood fell from the corner of his mouth. After wiping it, he got up in embarrassment and grabbed the key to run towards the hospital.

……

Driving all the way to the hospital, Xu Hankai was about to go to the emergency room, but he happened to meet a nurse and family members rushing past him with a seriously ill bed. He was bumped, and his irritability and pain made him look like a trapped animal.

He hurriedly looked back over there, and found that lying on the hospital bed was a serious patient covered in bandages, whose face was not clear, and the bandages were still oozing blood. Xu Han, who could not speak, was so happy that he felt better:

Is a sick ghost.

He is still a sick ghost who is about to die ugly. If he is such a poor bastard, he can commit suicide on the spot. What's the point of living for a disabled person who has been rescued?

Thinking in this way, after registering, he rushed directly into the emergency room and jumped in the line in a grand manner. The doctor saw the blood at the corner of his mouth and realized that his condition was serious. He didn't say anything, just let him lie on the hospital bed, and then used The instrument checked his mouth and took out the fishbone inside.

He breathed a sigh of relief, took the medicine and headed home, and when he walked out of the hospital, he deliberately patted the dust off his clothes, thinking, don't come to such an unlucky place next time——

At the same time, thinking of Xu Jiao who had been force-fed with bitter gourd rice by him earlier at home, a cruel smile appeared on his face.

He knew what to do to save his mood.

Thinking of this, Xu Han stepped on the accelerator, but collided with a passing vehicle. Coincidentally, the windshield was completely broken, and something fell on it, almost blocked by the airbag. In a coma, he felt something crackling fall on his face, and immediately, he was overwhelmed by horrible pain.

……

Xu Hankai entered the hospital lying down this time.

When he opened his eyes, his face was full of pain. He raised his hand to touch it in horror, but he heard the doctor next to him say: "Don't move, your wound has just been bandaged, and a piece of glass almost got stuck in the eyeball. Fortunately—— —”

"But there are a few deep wounds on the face, and the muscles are torn. Afterwards, you may have to consider medical aesthetics projects to completely restore your original appearance. Okay, rest assured, how about your family?"

Xu Hankai: "..."

He touched the gauze on his face in horror.

What does it mean that the wound is relatively deep, which caused the tear of the muscle, and what did he look like?

Without this face, is there any rich woman who can fall in love with him?

He said timidly: "Doctor, doctor, please help me...help me...my face..."

There was hoarseness in his voice.

But the doctor patiently comforted him, because there were other beds to watch the situation, so he didn't have much time to stay, only left him in the panic, his begging, crying, and despair slowly turned into hysterical hatred.

"Quack doctors, you must be the ones who can't do it, you hurt me, you don't want me to be well at all!"

"Junk hospital!"

He scolded angrily for a long time, and the doctors and nurses gradually became businesslike. His family members had no time to visit him and asked him for money. When the rich women heard that he had hurt their faces, they all cut off contact with him. Xu's mother, who was the only one who was thinking about him, had to be with Xu Jiao all the time, so she could only order him meals over the phone and hire a nurse for him.

Xu Hankai regards Xu's mother as a life-saving straw.

As long as this woman is willing to pay him, he can continue to live. He slowly calmed down and waited for the gauze on his face to be removed. Patient, he heard something from the doctor's occasional words.

Thinking that the man in the next bed couldn't even do that, he was strangely comforted. One time, when the other people were away and the family members went out, he said:

"Brother, you are too miserable—"

"I can't even be a man. If I were you, I'd just change my gender and become a woman. After all, I'm better than a eunuch."

The person in the next bed scolded him angrily.

He smiled and greeted each other's parents back and forth with each other. At the right time, his nurse came back and wanted to help him go to the bathroom. When he got out of bed, he looked around for his shoes and inadvertently knocked over the kettle that the nurse had just opened. , The cork of the kettle fell off inexplicably, and the scalding hot water slanted out, dripping towards his waist and abdomen!

A sharp pain came from under his body, he opened his eyes wide, and a scream came from his throat:

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

His eggs!

The lifeblood of his family! ! !

……

"It's not a dream, it's a sea of ​​evil."

The system suddenly spoke again in Xu Jiao's mind.

Xu Jiao knew that it had a way to detect everything in this world, so she didn't hide it from him, humming a song, cracked an egg for herself, made a bowl of egg fried rice, and replied softly: "Yes."

In the first world, Kunlun specially made illusions to deal with some malicious guys. As long as people have evil thoughts in their hearts or speak evil words, they will be backlashed by the illusions, and those bad things will be destroyed. Everything is projected onto yourself.

Xu Jiao glanced at the unconscious Xu Hankai lying on the ground outside, and sincerely prayed for him: "I hope he can be kind."

System: "...I thought you were joking."

Xu Jiao shrugged her shoulders, shoveled out the delicious egg fried rice in the pot bit by bit, then got off the high stool, and while going out with her own egg fried rice, she prayed to Xu Hankai:

"Then I hope his pain-sensing nerves are not so developed. After all, judging from his previous behavior towards me, he should not be afraid of pain."

If a person is afraid of pain, how can he be willing to inflict such hell-like pain on others?

If Xu Hankai is not so afraid of pain, then the damage of the illusion to him will be reduced. After all, illusions can be faked, or this kind of illusion like fairy art. The experience inside must be extremely realistic. If the sense of immersion is too strong, there will be more reflections in reality.

This is also the reason why illusions can kill people.

It creates illusions in people's minds, making people feel that they are dead, and successfully deceives the important command organ of the brain, it will accept the fact that it is dead, and thus strike, and wait for the people in the illusion to return to reality, The same death will be staged, he thought he was killed by the illusion, but in fact he was killed by his senses and brain.

Xu Jiao sat on a chair and fed her stomach spoonful by spoonful.

At the same time, she smiled and said to Xu Hankai as if she was asleep: "Come on, you can do it."

How boring to be defeated so easily?

It's just the beginning.

……

Two 10 minutes later.

Xu Hankai opened his eyes, and what he saw was the ceiling of the living room.

He moved his fingertips, and just as he was thinking about it, he found that there was a severe pain in his throat, which made him unable to say anything. At the same time, the pain gradually spread to his cheeks, and extreme pain spread from his waist and abdomen. , accompanied by an itching that had been scalded by boiling water and wished to peel off a layer of his own skin.

He opened his mouth, but all he could say was, "Ho...ho..."

Help!

Help!Who will save him!

At this moment, Xu Jiao walked in front of him. She watched the man's skin gradually have a knife-like wound, and a bright red color burst out from the wound, dripping on the floor. It was moist, and there was a foul smell.

Xu Hankai desperately wanted to speak, Jiaojiao, call me!Call someone!Hit 120!help!

More voices came out of his throat, but only streams of blood came out.

Xu Jiao just stared at him, her brows were calm, without any change.

Xu Hankai was in a daze from the pain, and he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand to hit her. Just when Xu Jiao thought he would die from such pain, suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the living room.

……

Ye Zhen thought of Xu Han driving home from the cat's eyes, and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

She walked out of the door, sticking to the door of Xu Jiao's house with some guilt, wanting to hear some movement, but there was nothing, neither noise nor crying and screaming.

After waiting patiently for 10 minutes, she couldn't wait any longer, fearing that she might miss something, she hurriedly knocked on the door.

No matter whether she would reveal her identity or not, she couldn't stand Xu Jiao being hurt!

The door opened quickly—

The child stood at the door, looking at her with blinking black eyes.

Their eyes met, and both of them were a little stunned.

Xu Jiao saw the tension in her eyes that she couldn't hide, and a little doubt gradually rose in her heart.
