99th day of imprisonment

Chapter 10 10 Struggling

That night, Zhang Chi was thrown on the floor and kept his eyes open until dawn. He was used to this kind of treatment and didn't find it unusual. Therefore, he would not have guessed that Xu Lifeng also couldn't fall asleep that night.

Noticing that Xu Lifeng turned over and got off the bed, Zhang Chi raised his head from his arms, and said hoarsely to Xu Lifeng's back, "Can you turn yourself in? As long as you have a good attitude and return the stolen goods, the sentence shouldn't take too long. I can help you figure it out."

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Xu Lifeng turned around and met Zhang Chi's sincere gaze, "What good results can there be if you go in and come out again? Besides, why should I trust you?"

"Then find a job! With the money you robbed, even the interest is enough for you to live. If you can't, use the money to open a shop and do some small business."

"Shut up!" Xu Lifeng kicked Zhang Chi's waist, "I'm a wanted criminal, you want me to open a shop? Are you too naive or I'm too easy to cheat? Brother Hu and Tie Ya came to you for stealing the stolen money, and now Hui The city can't stay any longer."

Sure enough, he stole the stolen money?Thinking of the indiscriminate disasters he had suffered, Zhang Chi also filled with anger, "I never imagined that robbers could be so unkind and unrighteous, it really opened my eyes."

"If you want to die, just keep talking."

"Why do you have to rob? There are so many ways to make a living!"

Xu Lifeng untied the iron chain on Zhang Chi's ankle, carried the man in a mess and threw him into the simple bathroom, poured cold water on him, causing a burst of exclamation, "No one is born willing to rob. Today, he ran away, his home was smashed, and I was beaten again and again, do you think I should rely on my meager salary every month to fill that pit?"

That really can't.Zhang Chi was secretly startled. He thought that such things would only happen in movies and novels. He never imagined that such an unfair thing would happen to someone. "Then...how much do you still owe?"

"It has nothing to do with you." After cleaning up Zhang Chi's body indiscriminately, Xu Lifeng grabbed the bread and threw it to Zhang Chi, "Leave Huicheng when Cheng Jun's ransom is in hand."

Wait until the ransom is paid, then what?Are you the one who left Huicheng, or are we together?Zhang Chi knew that he shouldn't have such thoughts. Cheng Jun must be going crazy, but he was entangled with the robbers here.The longing for a warm life and the irresistible instinct for strange passions are about to tear him in two, and he desperately needs to get the answer he wants.

"After getting the ransom, will you kill me?"

There was no answer, the man just paused for a moment, then grabbed the bag, stuffed the knife rope, and walked out of the door without looking back.

I can't answer it, that's for sure, maybe I don't want to kill, but I have to.After all, they are just the relationship between kidnappers and hostages, without love, there can be no relationship.Everything that happened last night was nothing but the resonance of two souls trapped in the quagmire of loneliness, it was just a ridiculous illusion.

Let's leave, leave here, I still owe Cheng Jun an explanation, no matter whether we can still be together, it can't just end in such an unclear way!Zhang Chi suddenly realized that Xu Lifeng made a fatal mistake, perhaps due to negligence caused by his panic, he didn't lock himself up when he left!

Is this what freedom feels like?It has been so long that I almost forget this kind of fun.

To escape or not to escape?Once he fails to escape, he will inevitably be beaten again, and this time he may even be killed.If you don't escape, you will face the ending of life and death. Since the ending is similar, it's better to gamble.

Zhang Chi searched around the room, the doors and windows were nailed tightly, even if there were no iron chains to restrain him, he would not be able to escape at all. Could it be that Xu Lifeng was sure of this, so he left with confidence?But don't forget, as long as you can move freely, you don't have to escape, there are more ways to save yourself.

Kicking the broken wooden stool leg, Zhang Chi tightly held the removed wooden stick, guarding behind the door not daring to relax for a moment.Different from the long waiting in the past, the time passed even more tormenting under the high tension. Zhang Chi was not sure whether Xu Lifeng would come back today, but this might be the only chance, and he had to grasp it firmly.

At dusk, there was finally a sound outside the door, familiar footsteps stepping out in a familiar rhythm, Xu Lifeng came back!

Zhang Chi was so nervous that he forgot to breathe, and his whole body was shaking with fear. He had never killed anyone, and he had never even attempted to hit anyone. Now he couldn't hesitate, he couldn't be timid, in order to survive, he had to attack!

While holding his breath waiting for the door to be opened, and the moment Xu Lifeng stepped inside, Zhang Chi raised his wooden stick and slammed it hard at the back of the opponent's head. Things were scattered all over the place.

succeeded?Really successful?

The opened door, the car key that fell to the ground, the mobile phone with a cracked screen, enough, enough!Zhang Chi picked up the escape tool with trembling hands, and sniffed Xu Lifeng's breath with some reluctance. Fortunately, he was still alive, so it shouldn't matter if he was left here like this?

Just leave like this?You can get out of this dilapidated house that imprisoned you!But why is my heart so empty?It was as if something had been forcibly stripped away, making him unable to obey.

Something was rubbing against my feet, it was itchy.Zhang Chi couldn't help lowering his head to look. What he saw was a puppy, which looked so weak as it walked wobbly.It's not just the puppy, there are also snacks, newspapers, puppy toys, and books that I wrote on the slips of paper scattered on the ground...

how so!

Why do these things?

Is this what a kidnapper should do to a hostage?

Zhang Chi picked up those books in disbelief and held them tightly in his arms.He didn't understand, Xu Lifeng actually obeyed his request and brought back these things to pass the time, as well as a little life that could accompany him to dispatch lonely lives, isn't that too foul?

He admitted that his heart was shaken again, his legs were stuck there like stakes, and he couldn't move because his soul didn't want to move anymore.Between sensibility and rationality, he hesitated, and what filled his heart was full of warmth and reluctance.

When he was sick, he cooked noodles and helped him take a bath, and prepared all these to bring back here, especially the cute little guy who whimpered, like a surprise for his lover. never done.

Cheng Jun Cheng Jun Cheng Jun!

Recalling the anxious voice on the phone, Zhang Chi had a hard time making a choice. He believed that Cheng Jun also loved him, but did he really love Cheng Jun?What is the reason for forgiving each other's cheating again and again?Have you never really felt bad about it?

Love is a matter between two people, and Cheng Jun's infidelity will inevitably come in exchange for his indifference, so what qualifications does he have to blame Cheng Jun for all his mistakes?Want to see him, say sorry to him, and then?Probably no more.

The days with Cheng Jun couldn't find any sense of reality at all, and he suddenly began to be reluctant to face the kind of helplessness that he might love but was relatively speechless, so tired.

The puppy kept circling around Xu Lifeng, licking the blood-stained side face from time to time, looking at Zhang Chi standing aside with innocent eyes, calming down a confused heart gradually.

So what about the kidnappers, what about the hostages, may I ask which kidnapper who is about to kill the hostages would specially prepare these gifts?Isn't it ridiculous?

Isn't... isn't it love?
