chilling

The three words "Valentine's Day" are generally associated with flowers, chocolates and sweet love.Yu Qiuliang took out a booklet from the dusty bookcase, and found the Valentine's Day 18 years ago according to the page number.What caught his eyes were a few bloody photos. He flipped through a few pages and coughed from the dust.

This is the first time he came to Yu Xiasheng's office.To say that this is an office is an exaggeration, but in Qiu Liang's eyes, it is more like an abandoned warehouse.How many people's lives are piled up here, and their lives are like art like stone carvings.Apparently, Yu Xiasheng seldom cleaned the place by himself, maybe he didn't come often, Yu Qiuliang looked at the dusty wooden frames, tables and chairs, clapped his hands in distaste, and walked out with the booklet under his arm.

Yu Qiuliang didn't know anything about what happened 18 years ago.He hadn't been born then, and anyway he had no reason to know what happened before he was born.Those things are too ordinary, buried in the dust, and will never be written into the history that needs to be remembered by people.Things like history are reserved for big events and important events. The disputes of ordinary people are too trivial to record, although small people are an important part of history.

However, there are always some special jobs that need to record such stories.This is a typical homicide and a typical human textbook.Yu Qiuliang always thinks that people are unreliable. He feels that he is unreliable, and he also feels that others are unreliable.He looks at the people and things around him from the perspective of an indifferent onlooker, because he has to do this to get a more objective cognition.

Now that he reads the old cases from 18 years ago, he also deeply feels the unreliability of human nature.Humans are high-intelligence creatures who are good at performing. They like to wear masks to confuse others except themselves.They often think that as long as they perform long enough, as long as their acting skills are high enough, they can confuse the fake with the real and turn the lie into the truth, but they forget that a person can never really lie to himself unless he is insane.

But when he was really insane, although he had deceived himself, he could no longer deceive others.Therefore, deception to others and deception to oneself generally cannot coexist.

There was an incident of a nasty nature 18 years ago, which is actually still rumored to this day.Yu Qiuliang had heard about this matter, his source of information need not be explained, it was naturally his gossip friend Song Ciran.Compared with the incident between Gu Jia and her mother, the story of the red leather shoes is widely known. After all, this incident is too bizarre and terrifying.The details of Gu Jia's story are not very clear. Yu Qiuliang still doesn't quite understand what kind of life she has experienced, but the life history of the red leather shoes has been dug out, and all the details have been disclosed, drying in the sun. clear.

Just like Yu Qiuliang's first impression of the red leather shoes, she is a feminine woman, and the pair of shoes that she often wears on her feet are the ones she likes to wear when dancing.Her life is perfect. It can be said that it is smooth sailing. She has never experienced ups and downs or frustrations. She seems to be a winner from the beginning.However, the more beautiful things are, the more enviable they are, and the jealous people began to try every means to frame her.They introduce her to a perfect lover and lure her into a trap with sweet bait.

People who have not experienced ups and downs, if they don't often open their eyes to look around, then they may naively think that the world is full of good people, and lose their due judgment.She is such a poor person.She has been immersed in the world of dancers for so long that she forgot how to tell the difference. She was confused by the man's appearance, betrayed herself in a daze, and became the sacrifice of the devil.

The appearance of mildness is nothing more than the would-be murderer quietly putting on makeup.Everyone wants to make their face look better in the eyes of others, and of course the beasts with human thoughts think so too.She was full of joy, thinking that the man who entered the marriage hall with her was her destined guardian, but what she saw after marriage was nothing but a ferocious monster.She was flustered, and really thought that she had done something wrong to make others angry.She is still too naive, she doesn't know that there are monsters in this world, their emotions have nothing to do with others.

She became more and more frightened, and behind her husband's back, she contacted some seemingly reliable people and asked them for help.She was confused and ignorant, and couldn't find where the safe passage was, so she threw herself into the trap countless times, bumped into the high wall countless times, until she bumped her head until she bled, she finally understood that those spectators were just Make her bear it, because if she doesn't, there's nothing for them to see.This type of people is probably the same species as flies, whether they are good or bad, they all attract their attention.They landed on the smooth eggshells and beat them with a small hammer. When the eggshells were overwhelmed and cracks appeared, they triumphantly announced to the world: Flies don't bite seamless eggs, you are here to see Lively, the reason why monsters stomp you to pieces is because of your own problems!

More flies swarmed up to attack the sad victim: yes, yes!You have your own problems!You shouldn't call for help because you're not a perfect victim!

However, there is no law that says the victim has to be perfect.Judging whether a person has been violated is not based on the person's personality.Moreover, there is nothing wrong with the red leather shoes itself, it's just that other people see her life is too good, so they insist on adding a little mistake to her.Knocking over an ink bottle and staining a white paper with ink is the greatest pleasure of bastards.They enjoy it and don't care how the stained white paper feels.

When it comes to asking for help, she has indeed asked the outside world for help.However, everyone already knows that flies only love to join in the fun all their lives, and they are not willing to save her when they encounter her suffering—they also have no ability to save others.In a place full of flies, it is easy for people to lose sight of the way. Her parents' eyes were blocked by the flies, and they forgot to trust their daughter.They stubbornly believe that when a man beats a woman, it must be because the woman is at fault, and it must be because their daughter does not obey the rules and shows up in public, which makes her husband unhappy.This kind of thinking is very common among the old zombies who have not yet died. They always think that punishing women who "do not obey women's morals" is justified.

No one knows what kind of words she heard before she died.Whether those words were bitter or vicious, no one knows.What Yu Qiuliang learned from the documents was only the final result.He couldn't bear to read, so he glanced at the words and jumped to the end to see the most tragic ending.Ah, no one else understood what happened to her until after she died, and they downplayed the crimes; but isn't it evil that can be summed up in a few words?

She died on Valentine's Day.The suddenly mad husband picked up a knife and slashed her face, which was the capital she was once proud of.Her face was disfigured, her throat was slit all over, blood flowed all over the floor, and finally the beast with a knife stabbed the murder weapon into her heart.That was her fatal wound.

Sometimes retribution comes quickly.After her death, after the clock struck zero o'clock, the murderer suddenly woke up. Facing the blood all over the floor, his first reaction was to yell.Immediately afterwards, he pulled the knife from the corpse and slashed his own carotid artery.His actions were crisp and clear, as concise and clear as when he killed his wife, and until he died, he didn't figure out why he wanted to cut that knife on the side of the neck.

For a ridiculous beginning, there will be an absurd ending to match it.They died together.The corpses of the perpetrator and the victim of violence were kept close together, and they were not discovered by neighbors until they rotted and stinked.

The two numbers "990214" and "990215" were written side by side on the top of the paper. Yu Qiuliang blinked and leaned closer to the booklet to carefully distinguish the appearance of the woman.Unfortunately, since her face was already blurred when she died, her appearance is also blurred in the files belonging to the ghost.Yu Qiuliang rummaged through the files and only found her previous ID photo.With a delicate face and a smiling mouth, this is a black and white photo, maybe it is a posthumous photo?

This was the first time he saw the true face of the red leather shoes.For some reason, the moment he saw her real appearance, he suddenly felt that she was not scary anymore.

After Yu Xiasheng's meeting was over, she glanced outside, but couldn't find Yu Qiuliang.He was so angry that his liver trembled, he went up and down the building several times, and finally saw this restless brat in the file room.This kid is really capable. Once he is not in school, he is extraordinarily energetic.The file room was on the roof, and it was so gloomy that no one would come to it at ordinary times. Fortunately, he dared to hide here alone to peek at the files.

"Dong dong dong!" Yu Xiasheng knocked on the door panel three times in a row, and Yu Qiuliang jumped up from the ground with an "Ah yo".He squatted for too long, his legs were numb, and he staggered and was about to fall forward.Yu Xiasheng was afraid that his other arm would be half disabled, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and snatched the booklet from his hand at the same time.

"What are you rummaging about?" Yu Xiasheng reprimanded, "Did you read this? Did I let you read it?"

"The door is not locked, and the cabinet is not locked. Isn't it here for people to see?" Yu Qiuliang retorted, "You don't want me to know anything! If you don't tell me, I'll find it myself, which is also against the law. gone?"

Yu Xiasheng was at a loss for words for a while, and couldn't find the right words to stop him, so he could only stare at him sullenly.Yu Qiuliang was victorious when he opened the flag, and raised his tail happily, like a monkey who has won a fight, full of air.The old ghost smirked, flipped through the booklet, and saw that nothing had fallen out, so he picked it up and put it on the back of Qiuliang's head.Yu Qiuliang was in pain, covered his head and hid to the side, which was exactly what Yu Xiasheng wanted.He put the booklet back on the empty space on the cabinet, snapped his fingers, and there was an extra iron lock on the bookcase.

"Hey! What are you doing! Where did you get the lock!" Yu Qiuliang was dumbfounded, unable to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.He now regrets that he just reminded Yu Xiasheng that there is no padlock on the cabinet. If he didn't remind him, the other party might not remember it!He was very angry, and rushed forward to fight Yu Xiasheng, but Yu Xiasheng felt that he was making trouble for no reason, so he didn't bother to tangle with him at all, so he subdued him in twos and twos, and escorted him downstairs.

Against the backdrop of the cool autumn, the little ghost looked extraordinarily peaceful.When Yu Qiuliang slipped to the top floor to peek at the files, the little ghost was always sitting in the library on the first floor without moving.Yu Xiasheng felt relieved, and patted Yu Qiuliang on the back of the head to let him learn more from children, but Yu Qiuliang punched him again in resentment.

"A self-created left-hand boxing technique?" Yu Qiuliang still had pain in his right arm, so he could only use his left hand.His punch was so soft that it made Yu Xiasheng laugh instead.The more the old ghost laughed, the angrier Yu Qiuliang became. He waved his left arm, and his fists fell like raindrops, hitting Yu Xiasheng's back.Yu Xiasheng felt that he was beating himself on the back, and he was about to die with a smile, so he covered his face and trembled slightly, trying not to laugh out loud.

The woman who had appeared last night stood outside and knocked on the door.The door here was not closed, she knocked on it to bring Yu Xiasheng back to his senses.She first giggled twice, reminding them that this is a library and they must keep quiet, and then asked: "The business of 990215 is not over yet, you disappeared, do you like taking care of children so much?"

"Who likes to take care of children?" Yu Xiasheng suddenly overturned Yu Qiuliang, pressed him face down on the sofa cushion, and said, "You take your brother to play here, do you hear me?"

"I didn't hear it!" Yu Qiuliang gritted his teeth, "I'm deaf, I can't hear!"

"If you can't hear it, you have to hear it." Yu Xiasheng pressed him down again, until he felt that the bridge of his nose was about to be crushed, and then Yu Xiasheng let go.

Yu Qiuliang struggled to get up from the sofa, rubbed his sore nose, and shouted at their backs: "Yu Xia gave birth to you bastard!"

The kid jumped off the chair and took out a pack of soft candy from some corner: "Eat candy, it's delicious."

Even if Yu Qiuliang wanted to have trouble with the kid, he couldn't have trouble with the fudge. He especially liked fudge.He smacked his lips, cheekily poured the sugar into his mouth, and chewed relish.After chewing for a while, he suddenly saw the candy bag, and immediately became alert: "Who gave this candy?"

"Sister Xiaoyuan." The little ghost danced, took out another bag of beautifully packaged candy, and said inarticulately, "It's for brother."

"Me?" Yu Qiuliang pointed at himself suspiciously.

The kid shook his head.

Oh, it's for my brother.Yu Qiuliang looked indifferent, and ate all the remaining candy.He seems to smell the sour smell of love, but he doesn't know who this sister Xiaoyuan is and what she looks like.

Maybe he should call her "sister-in-law".Yu Qiuliang lay down on the sofa, staring blankly at the ceiling.It doesn't make sense. A bastard like Yu Xiasheng can have a partner. How do people fall in love?Falling in love with Yu Xiasheng?Is this girl blind?Are you blinded by lard?
