death office

The man slumped on the ground and coughed vigorously. He was more than half sober from the alcohol, and his legs were still in the chaotic state just now, kicking on the ground indiscriminately. Even the fat on his body kept shaking with his movements, which looked funny It's ridiculous.

Lu Xuan didn't look at the man, his black eyes were tightly locked on Mu Lan's face, watching her angry eyes gradually fade red, and a trace of panic appeared after returning to calm.Lu Xuan's paralyzed face rarely showed an emotional side, and for the first time a bit of anger flashed in his deep pupils.

"Where did you leave the employee rules?" Lu Xuan asked.

Mu Lan's breath suddenly stopped.

Lian Jia approached with a smile, put one hand on Lu Xuan's shoulder: "Don't be angry, Ah Xuan, nothing happened."

"It will be too late if it happens!" Lu Xuan pulled his hand off, his eyes undiminished, "And you, what are you doing! She lost control and you followed the brain twitch? You won't stop her !"

Lian Jia was aggrieved by his yelling, and the corner of his mouth twitched, but he didn't make any excuses.

Mu Lan stood quietly by the side, listening to Lu Xuan's rare way of speaking in an angry way, it can be seen how angry he was inside.Thinking of this, Mu Lan felt a hint of surprise and complacency from the bottom of her heart. She really had the ability to annoy Lu Xuan so much.

Mulan bowed her head and admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry. It's my fault. Don't blame Lian Jia."

Lu Xuan subdued his anger slightly, and took a deep look at her: "Don't forget, now you are the assistant of the firm first, and the object of our task second. I hope you don't make this mistake again. "

He squatted down, stretched out his hand and brushed lightly in front of the drunk man's eyes. The man's eyes closed and he passed out. A few minutes later, he woke up again. what.

The three of them disappeared and watched the man stumble back into the small building.

Lian Jia suddenly exclaimed: "Lu Xuan, what's wrong with you?!"

Lu Xuan's already pale skin became even more ugly, with a slight bluish tinge.He habitually wore black clothes and black trousers, which made his face terrifying, just like a resentful ghost.

Lu Xuan waved his hand: "It's okay, tampering with the time consumes too much energy." He didn't explain much, but Lian Jia was still a little worried, with a faint worry on his always cynical face.

Seeing that he was about to lose his hold, Mulan was also a little worried: "Why don't you send him back to Lian Jia to rest for a while, and I'll just take a look here myself."

Lu Xuan let go of Lian Jia's hand that wanted to help him, and said to them: "Lian Jia, follow Mu Lan, and be careful not to act aggressively. I still have something to do, and I can't get away."

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the two to react, and disappeared into the void in a blink of an eye, leaving Lian Jia and Mu Lan looking at each other.

"Lu Xuan is a little strange." Mu Lan frowned and said with some uncertainty.

Lian Jia gave her a white look: "You still need to say it. To be honest with you, I haven't seen him talk so much since I knew him." Although Lian Jia is a little crazy, his tone of speech is always exaggerated. But what he said is basically believable.

Mu Lan pulled up the corners of her mouth and smiled unnaturally: "Maybe he was too angry today."

Speaking of this, Lian Jia was also amazed: "Yes, little Alan, you are really a blockbuster. You are so fast and ruthless. If Lu Xuan hadn't arrived in time today, I'm afraid I can't do it." Save that man under your hand."

Mu Lan didn't roll her eyes as usual in response to Lian Jia's habitual sarcasm. She bowed her head in silence for a while before looking up at the dilapidated small building.

"That man is my father." She said.

Lian Jia knew everything about her, and she also knew that what she said didn't require any response from him. She just needed an audience, someone who could be her confidant, and listened carefully and quietly to her heart. The long-hidden story is over.Those things have been dusty in the memory for a long time, and gradually rotted and rotted, but they have never been completely weathered with the passage of time. Instead, when they are mentioned by accident, they still emit a disgusting rancid smell.

"Since I can remember, he seems to be like that. He is always sloppy and looks like he has never washed his clothes. His hair is messy and he doesn't bother to cut it when he grows. He doesn't take the initiative to shave his beard. , with dirt and stains all over his face, just like a beggar."

When Mu Lan talked about this, the disgust in her eyes was obvious.

"When my mother was still there, she would help him wash his clothes, urge him to cut his hair and shave, and would help him trim his hair when he was in a good mood. But when she was in a good mood, she seldom because she had endless housework to do things, and my dad, the only thing he was interested in was drinking.

"Everywhere in the house, there are empty wine bottles he drank. Some are intact, and some are just glass shards. When I was a child, I ran around barefoot and got scratched many times. I never did it again. After he finished drinking, he would be very irritable and beat people. My mother was beaten many times by him. I remember that once a glass bottle cut a big hole on her head, and she was bleeding profusely It freaked me out and I screamed for a doctor, but my mom stopped it because it cost a lot of money to see a doctor and our family, by then, was very poor.

"My mother was a prostitute, but she became a good woman after meeting my father. But because of her unclean background, my father always scolded her when he was drunk, and scolded me along the way. He scolded everything, including my mother. It's a whore, called me a bastard, and told us to fuck off. My mother couldn't stand his insults, and would fight back, and then there was a never-ending quarrel.

"Finally one day, my mother couldn't take it anymore. When my dad told her to get out again, she really got out and never showed up again. I was only five years old at that time, so I can't even think of me now. Mom, what does she look like?"

Speaking of this, Mulan paused for a moment, the disgust on her face was gone, but a kind of calm after looking down on everything, she said: "Actually, I don't blame her."

Lian Jia didn't respond to her words, and stood quietly beside her all the time, looking down at his toes, which was a little different from his usual bluffing and childish personality.

Mu Lan stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes: "What are you thinking about?"

Lian Jia raised his head: "Who do you think you don't blame?"

"My mother." Mu Lan said, "She was just scared of being beaten by my father, so she chose a way that was beneficial to herself to escape from that hell. She didn't take me away, maybe because she thought my father would not take me. What about me, maybe she forgot about me, or maybe it's because she can't protect herself, so she has no time to take care of me."

Lian Jia suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, and looked at her with a half-smile: "You are actually blaming her, don't deny it."

Mu Lan was silent.

"Because she didn't take you away and let you stay at home and suffer torture. Her departure has become the source of all your pain and despair. How can you not blame her?"

Lian Jia always likes to tell the cruel truth with an attitude of indifference, it is really disgusting and makes people want to beat him up.Mu Lan lowered her eyes with an unclear attitude.

For a while, neither of them spoke.

After a long time, Mu Lan looked up at him with mixed emotions: "You're right, I'm blaming her. Why can she just walk away like this without caring about my life? Such irresponsible Are human beings also worthy of being mothers?"

Lian Jia's face changed slightly: "Alan..."

Mu Lan ignored him, and continued with what she said just now: "The day my mother left, I hid in the room and watched her secretly, but she never thought of it from the beginning to the end, she still has a daughter. That night I Dad was drunk again and slept in the living room all day, and I sat in the room all night.

"Actually, I didn't have the concept of leaving at that time, because many times after they quarreled, my mother would run out for one night and come back the next day, as if nothing happened. But that time was different, I vaguely felt that my mother would never come back after she ran out. Later, she really didn't come back.

"The next day my dad kicked open my door and asked where my mum was, and I said she was gone, and then he slapped me across the face, then hit me like crazy, kicked me, and said no He kept cursing 'bitch' and 'bitch', actually I don't know what those words mean, but I could see the deep resentment in his eyes when he hit me. I broke two ribs that day, There was blood all over my face. It was the neighbor who heard the movement, ran over and grabbed him, and took me to the hospital.

"Then it was the beginning of all the dark and dark life. He still drank every day and beat me when he was drunk. All the money in the family was given to him to buy alcohol. He went to steal things. He locked me in the room, didn't allow me to go out, and didn't give me food. The neighbors looked at it and would secretly send me some food. Later, the neighbors also moved away, so No one gave me food anymore.

"When I couldn't take it anymore, I could only run to drink water. I was still hungry, so I soaked cold rice in water while he was out. Later, I slowly groped to cook for myself, but every time I only I dare to make a little bit, because I am afraid that he will find out. Long-term malnutrition, my body has problems, the most obvious is the lack of growth hormone, my appearance and body will always be,

She paused and said, "It stopped when I was 13."
