Cuscuta

Chapter 9

Ye Junchuan can still clearly recall the memory of his time in the orphanage.

81 came in the cold winter with little food and clothing.Although he was the last child in number, he was the oldest child among them. After being sorted into Ye Junchuan and Cheng Xi's room, he quickly became close to Cheng Xi.

Even the whereabouts of Chengxi's father was learned from him.

After being adopted by Cheng's family, Ye Junchuan never went back to that orphanage, and neither did Chengxi. They deliberately cut off contact with the past, and thought that they would never have anything to do with that place again in this lifetime.

At least Ye Junchuan never thought that he would meet his old friend under such circumstances.

The last suspect... the murderer of Zheng Wei... is 81.

"You two, you are still together after so many years." 81 gasped enough, narrowed his eyes and said, he looked at Chengxi again: "Isn't it good to just admit that you are the murderer? Anyway, you are very Want to kill him."

"The murderer is you." Ye Junchuan said.

81 shrugged his shoulders and said in a nonchalant tone: "Yeah, I'm not like Fifteen. I'm looking for someone with so much fanfare, but I was locked up by the police immediately. I took advantage of the opportunity of a business trip and went to the prison several times. , and finally figured out Zheng Wei's whereabouts, the one who committed the murder, haha, when that guy saw me appear, he still had a very impatient expression."

……

Zheng Wei saw someone in the room at a glance.

His room cannot be locked from the outside, so whenever he works, the door is left open for anyone to come in.

"who are you?"

81 was originally standing with his back to him, but now he turned around.

Zheng Wei recognized the person who was staying in the hotel these days, and he had seen it when he was cleaning the building.

He's just a hotel guest, why is he in his room?

81 said his name softly.

Zheng Wei was stunned, showing an expression of sudden realization: "It's you!" Not only was it a hotel guest, but also someone he knew, whom he didn't recognize just now.

He remembered that after he was imprisoned, the child followed his father to visit him.Didn't expect it to be so big now.

In fact, Zheng Wei was very impatient, he didn't understand why after so many years, he came here again.Zheng Wei thought, since this is the case, let's see what he is going to do.Anyway, I have nothing to give him.

……

"It turned out to be very lucky. After I killed him, the police only interrogated me a few times before letting me go. I heard that they suspected that Zheng Wei was killed by his own son. Thank you, Fifteen .” 81 still looked at Chengxi and said with a smile.

Ye Junchuan was listening all the time, and then he spoke coldly, interrupting his words: "You are the murderer, the criminal police will know about it soon."

81 also knows Zheng Wei, as long as the criminal police investigate carefully, they will definitely find more evidence of his crime.

"No way." Only then did 81 look at Ye Junchuan, pretending to be surprised and said, "Xiao Qi, when did you become so naive? Do you think... I will give you a chance to tell the story? "

Cheng Xi wiped the blood from his face, and said to Ye Junchuan, "You go first."

Ye Junchuan shook his head, Cheng Xi was already injured, it would only be more dangerous to stay here alone, not to mention that 81 had murderous intentions, he would not let them go.

(If you can find an opportunity to call the police...)

Before they could make a choice, 81 suddenly rushed over, bent his knees and kicked Ye Junchuan in the abdomen.For a moment, Ye Junchuan only felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and he couldn't help but knelt down on the ground, with sour water in his mouth, and his whole body was covered in cold sweat.

In his distorted field of vision, he saw that 81 and Cheng Xi were already fighting together. Ye Junchuan hurriedly stood up and looked around, but he didn't see any tools in his hand. The only desk lamp was held by 81. They kept hitting Chengxi.

Ye Junchuan rushed over and hugged 81 from behind.

81 struggled violently, but was punched from the front by Cheng Xi, and his movements slowed down.

Just when Ye Junchuan thought they were about to subdue him, 81 suddenly retreated forcefully. Ye Junchuan was behind him, but he couldn't stop him.

There was a loud crash, they knocked over something, but Ye Junchuan had no time to pay attention, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and 81's continuous backing caused his whole body to hit the wall.

This time, 81 broke free from him easily, and Ye Junchuan slid to the ground, feeling a splitting headache, his face was hot, and liquid flowed down his cheeks.

Ye Junchuan wiped his face and tried to stand up with his hands on the ground.

At this time, he touched something on the ground - it was the mobile phone that he accidentally dropped.

He quickly picked up his cell phone and dialed Lin Rui's number.

Lin Rui immediately contacted the criminal police from City S and rushed over.

After seeing Ye Junchuan calling the police, 81 immediately stopped, trying to escape.But it was hard to find the murderer after a lot of hard work, how could he just escape like this!Ye Junchuan tried his best to stop him, he couldn't remember how many times he fell to the ground, but struggled to get up again, and so did Cheng Xi.

Finally, they waited for the criminal police.

81 Until then, he gave up struggling completely.

Ye Junchuan and Chengxi were sent to the hospital in S City for treatment. They only found out about 81's motive for killing Zheng Wei a few days later.

Although 81's parents committed suicide, it was not because of the difficult life after losing their job or being unable to bear the pressure. It was because 81's father was close to Zheng Wei at the beginning. After Zheng Wei was imprisoned, his father was also suspected of embezzling public funds. This is something without evidence, but then other companies refused to hire him again.

After growing up, 81 knew the truth.

So he deliberately killed Zheng Wei.

"At that time, I began to suspect him, but because I didn't see anyone, I couldn't be sure," Cheng Xi said: "So I found out his address from Mr. He, but I didn't expect that he just asked for leave to go home. We were in the community building. Next time, he knew that I recognized him, so he wanted to kill me."

Ye Junchuan sighed, not knowing what to say.

It turned out that they all had the same idea, but now he is very glad that his and Chengxi's...none of them came true.

"I'll be out of the hospital tomorrow."

"Yes."

The weather has been fine for the past few days.

"go home."

Ye Junchuan reached out and took Chengxi's hand.Cheng Xi smiled happily.

"Well, go home."

From now on, no one will bother them again.

The author has something to say: the main text is over, mark the end first, but there should be something extra:-D

☆, postscript

This article pays tribute to "Forever a Child" by Mr. Tendo Arata.

The first time I started writing was in February 2016. At that time, I had just finished reading "Forever a Child". There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers, and this work by Mr. Tendo Arata left me with the greatest impression That is: the misfortune encountered in childhood will follow the child's life.

I don't think children don't remember things. In fact, children are very sensitive and slender, especially children who have had misfortunes in childhood. Even if they grow up, everything is normal on the surface, but a small switch may trigger The darkest memories of his past, like PTSD.

This is where the inspiration for this article comes from.Two children abandoned by their parents, trapped in the past even when they grow up, what they long for most is love because they don't think they have it.Chengxi regards Ye Junchuan as the same kind, and thinks that they should be together and lick each other's wounds, but Ye Junchuan wants to get rid of his past, so conflicts arise.

I don't know if I have clearly expressed this meaning in the article. Two people who made different choices would not be together in the first place, but I hope they can have a happy ending.So after finishing the first part, I didn't continue to write for a long time, because I didn't know how to get them together.

Until this year, one day I accidentally found this article again, read it from the beginning, and the follow-up development suddenly appeared in my mind automatically, so I was full of enthusiasm and completed the full text.

If the readers of this article can smile because of this ending, then I will be satisfied (:-D).I would be happier if you could email me to discuss the plot.

(My email is [email protected])

Good luck, happy reading!

April 2017

☆, extra

【Extras】

Xiaoqi is doing exercises.

He remembered the way home very clearly. His home was in a mountainous area, and he had to climb two mountains in a row. It was a place several times more lonely than the 'Children's Home'.

And he was practicing running back and forth between the two before dinner.

Until then, all had gone well, no one had noticed him doing it, and he would always be back in time for dinner, tired physically but strangely contented inside.

After dinner, he will go to the bathhouse to take a bath. There are not many children in the 'Children's Home', only fourteen. Besides, it is almost past the bathing time, and there will be no one in the bathhouse. Even the water released is Warm, with a little coolness.

After taking a shower and returning to the room, this tiring day is over.

A new day will come again.

The unchanging days were suddenly broken one day.

What happened was when Xiaoqi returned to his room after taking a shower. As soon as he opened the door, he heard a strange sound coming from inside, a bit like the whimpering of a small animal. It twitched and then stopped.

On the bed next to him that had been vacant for a long time, a black figure suddenly appeared, Xiao Qi was startled, and quickly turned on the lamp.

Sitting on the bed was a strange boy who was crying in a mess. At this time, the boy's eyes were wide open, and he was staring at him in a daze.

Like a frightened rabbit.

Xiaoqi understood the situation in an instant - this is the new kid.

He walked to his bed and sat down, casually asked the boy opposite: "What's your name?"

"Good... good..." the boy said hesitantly.

"what?"

"Hey... Dad, that's what you call me."

"Who asked you this!" Xiao Qi became a little impatient: "Is it about your name here, what is your number, fifteen?"

The boy nodded blankly.

Xiaoqi dropped his name, didn't want to say a word, and fell asleep.Fifteen was stunned by him for a while, and dared not say a word.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Qi woke up.

He used to wake up in the middle of the night too, but this time, he was woken up.

The bedroom of the orphanage is very simple. As soon as you enter the door, you can see the single beds on the left and right against the wall. There are four beds, two on the left and two on the left and right. They are divided into upper and lower beds, with a table in the middle.

Xiaoqi sleeps in the lower bunk on the left, and fifteen sleeps in the lower bunk on the right. For the time being, only the two of them are staying in this room.

Because of the table, Xiao Qi couldn't see the situation on the other side clearly, so he sat up, and sure enough the voice came from the opposite side - Fifteen was hiding in the bed and crying secretly.

Xiao Qi wanted to tell him to shut up, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

After a few days, Shiwu will get used to it by himself.

The next day, Xiao Qi went to the bathroom early to wash up, and came to the dining table to sit down.Even in the orphanage, he is a maverick child, there is no one around him, and everyone stays away from him.

Xiao Qi doesn't care about these things, he still has a long way to go today, he must prepare early.

When the meal time was about to end, Shiwucai came late. The dormitory supervisor reprimanded him and told him that he was not allowed to eat this morning as a punishment.

The children whispered in private, gloating.

Fifteen's eyes were filled with tears, but he held back his tears.

After breakfast, there is free time for activities. Until ten o'clock, older children will be required to go to class.Before that, more than a dozen children were nestled in the yard, and Xiao Qi was also there. Although he didn't integrate into the group, he didn't want to be noticed by the housekeeper because he was too alone, so he sat alone in a corner of the yard as usual. .

Because he was bored, he counted the number of people in the yard, and found that there were seventeen people in total, and the new arrivals yesterday were more than fifteen.

Speaking of Fifteen, Xiao Qi noticed that he had been trying to get close to those children, but because of what happened in the morning, everyone agreed that he was an idiot, and his attitude towards him was not friendly.

Fifteen circled around and around, finally, he saw Xiao Qi who was sitting alone in the corner.

He hesitated and walked over.

Xiao Qi frowned and glanced at him, but said nothing.

Fifteen seemed to be encouraged by this, he got closer and closer, and tentatively sat down next to Xiao Qi.

"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely not be late again." Shiwu whispered.

Xiaoqi thought to himself, what does this have to do with him, why did he tell him specially.

"You won't be hated by everyone anymore. So... don't be sad."

Xiao Qi was surprised when he heard this sentence, not because he was afraid of being hated by others.Subconsciously, he reached out and touched his face.

(I look, sad?)

As he thought this way, his heart really ached, and tears flowed down his face in an instant.

Just like a dry field being moistened by rain, his always quiet feelings are also alive at this moment, as if a puppet suddenly has emotions.

In the past, he once thought that there was only hatred left in his heart.

Fifteen frantically stretched out his hand to wipe his tears, but the tears grew more and more.Xiao Qi's crying was silent, only his shoulders twitched slightly.

No one noticed this little movement in the corner of the yard.

Fifteen hesitated for a moment, then reached out and hugged him gently.

On this day, Xiaoqi did not set foot on the way home.

After one night, Xiaoqi felt that he had calmed down. He wanted to continue to implement his plan, but he couldn't find a chance to get rid of Fifteen.No matter where she goes or what she does, President Shiwu follows her closely, even if Xiaoqi tells him to go away, he won't listen.

At first, Fifteen planned to go to the bathhouse with Xiao Qi, but after Xiao Qi sternly refused several times, he gave up.

As for Xiaoqi, after nearly half a month of struggle, he finally gave up and acquiesced that Shiwu would stick by his side.

He thought it was a helpless move, but he didn't realize it—during this period, he didn't think about going home once, and he didn't think about his plan.

He spent several years in the orphanage with Fifteen.The number of orphanages has gradually increased, and the former children have grown up, but no matter how they change, the relationship between them has never changed.

If this continues, he may embark on a completely different life path.

Until one day, a couple went to an orphanage, wanting to choose a child to take home for adoption.

Xiao Qi and Fifteen both lost the election.

Standing outside the room where the dean works, Xiao Qi heard the couple comment on him: "That child looks too gloomy, I'm afraid it's not good to raise it well. The other one is well-behaved, but he is too clingy to the previous one... ..."

For a moment, Xiaoqi recalled his parents.

(What were they thinking when they threw me away?)

Hatred filled his heart again.

Fifteen ran over and looked at him curiously: "What are you doing here?"

Xiao Qi didn't answer, but instead said:

"Eat dinner early tomorrow...I'll take you to a place."

"Where?"

(That's not mine, home.)
