old building

The moment I watched Qiao Jiuwei'an stand up, the tears I held back rolled down my throat.

The bitterness that has been brewed for many years makes me feel clearly from the lungs to the internal organs, and the bitterness makes me tremble all over.

But in the next second, that stalwart's body shook, and Qiao Jiu turned around almost at the same time.

He stared at me with disbelief in his eyes, and I walked towards Qiao Jiu with a smile and tears, and hugged Qiao Jiu who was shaking and about to fall, exhausting all my strength.

"Leave the rest to me, Qiao Jiu. You've already taken care of the first three. Leave this to me. You can go. I've already made all the arrangements, and someone will come to see you off later. gone."

"Qiao Jiu doesn't care if you can see me again for the rest of your life. I hope you live and live well. I love you Qiao Jiu more than I love myself."

I was talking, looking at Qiao Jiu who was slowly closing his eyes due to lack of strength, I laughed, wiped away the tears that I didn't know when she fell again, and took my mobile phone to make a call.

I overturned the things in my closet, and at the most side corner, I directly picked up a wooden board that was only the size of a coin. With my movements, the closet board was directly lifted by me.

The smell of frost and snow came out from below, I dragged the chair, and brought Qiao Jiu to the dark closet door, "Goodbye Qiao Jiu, I love you."

Someone below was responding. After I sent the person down, I watched the phone screen flash again, and my heart calmed down, but it was as if someone had directly hollowed out a piece of it.

I quickly tidied up the cabinet and restored it to its original state, and even put my bedding and clothes in and folded it as it was before.

I closed the cabinet door again, took a deep breath and walked downstairs.

At four o'clock in the morning, there are only me and the old landlord in the entire compound.

It was in the middle of the night that there was a sound of snowflakes falling on the ground quietly in the yard.

I slowed down, and the chisel was inserted into the crack of the door, and the old landlord's door was already opened.

Before the faint creaking sound fell in the silent darkness, I had already entered the dark main room.

Frost and snow raged rampantly in the room as I entered, and the cool smell had overshadowed everything, even my smell was hidden in it.

I walked slowly into the old landlord's bedroom. At four o'clock in the night, I couldn't hear any snoring from the old landlord. Instead, as I stood still, a hoarse and old voice sounded in the room, " I have been waiting for you for a long time."

I didn't make a sound, and slowly took two steps towards the inside, and the person inside said, "From the moment you came to this old courtyard, I knew you were looking for revenge from me."

There was bitterness in the old hoarse voice, and there was some laughter like a broken gong, "But I was wrong, I thought you only hated me, and as more and more tenants came in, I knew you The hatred in my heart is far more than I imagined."

"The mistakes made back then have become irreversible. I tried my best to influence you and prevent you from doing too many wrong things. After a few years of settling down, I thought you had forgotten your hatred, but I I was wrong."

"First, the daughter-in-law of the old Chen family died. Although I don't know why the young girl died in the young couple, but Li Dong is also in police custody now."

"Xiao Yao didn't get away with leaving. It's finally my turn. Why did you let me witness their deaths instead of killing me first?" The old landlord's voice sounded dull like an old-fashioned hanger The bell rang with excitement, even with a burst of humming.

"Why don't you speak? This is our sin, the fault of our older generation, but Ah Jiu, what's wrong with the younger generation? Are you going to kill them all?!" Out of excitement, the old landlord said As he spoke, his voice was louder, as if thunder was exploding.

Following the words of the old landlord, he seemed to stand up and slowly moved towards me. The sound of hobbled footsteps continued to sound. Although it was slow, it still narrowed the distance between us.

His breathing was heavy, and there was deep pain in his voice, "Ajiu, haven't you been tired all these years?"

"Pfft!" With a sound, in the darkness, I stabbed a knife into the belly of the nearby old landlord.

The old landlord's old and callused hands grabbed the back of my hand. Regardless of whether he wanted to stop him or continue to say something else, I drew out the knife, and some hot blood splashed on my face. Falling me was already another knife, stabbing into the stomach of the old landlord.

I went in with two knives in a row, and the blood rushed out. The whole room smelled of blood. The old landlord held on to my wrist tightly, "Hurry up, let's go..."

He said in a trembling voice, "I know that if you don't kill me, you will never forget your hatred. Now that you have done it, you have reaped all those lives. The police, the police are coming soon, let's go."

The old landlord was talking, trying to push me hard, but his strength is running out now. With his strength, he didn't push me out, but threw himself heavily on the ground, the old man groaned The sound rang again.

I looked at the blood under the old landlord's body through the light of the snow from outside. It had spread into a large area and penetrated into the ground, which looked like black stains.

The bloodstain continued to expand, and the old landlord was left with only a dying breath.

"No, I can't go." From the time I entered the room to the moment, I finally opened my mouth and said the first sentence.

Listening to my words, the old landlord's breathing suddenly became rapid, and then there was a pause, one fast and one slow, and it sounded like it was about to stagnate.

I think he was so excited, maybe because he knew that the person standing in the room was not the person he wanted to see, right?

"Hoo hoo..." The old landlord tried his best to raise his head to look up. I don't know what he wants to see, but I have already heard the shrill siren sounding outside the broken courtyard.

I tried my best to spread my hands, facing the wind and snow blowing in from outside, I took a full breath of the cool air, penetrating my spleen and lungs, this feeling is really wonderful.

"Bang bang!" There was a loud bang, the dilapidated iron gate was exhausted under the crazy impact, the gate fell down, a large number of policemen poured in, and at the same time, the bright lights were shining in my direction ,"Put your hands up!"

☆, at the end

"I killed all the police officers. Sentence me to death." With his hands bound, the slender Xue Guan sat in the interrogation room with a smile on his face. He only responded to all the police's questions.

No matter what the police do, no matter what attitude the police have, Xue Guan is like rolling over and over again, there is only one response.

"Xue Guan, don't think that if you don't confess to the crime, the police can't cure you. Let me tell you..." Another policeman was forced to leave violently, and slapped the table with his hand. The tables are all smashed.

Recently, everyone's temper in the police station seems to have been infected by Officer Fang, and they explode at any moment.

Policeman Xiao Yang was so angry that he pointed at the smiling person and said something. Just as he was about to continue spraying sparks, the door of the interrogation room was opened from the outside with a "squeak".

Chen Yang, who seemed to be extremely busy recently, and who had been haggard for a whole circle, walked in from outside the interrogation room.

Xiao Yang, a policeman who was furious, turned his head when he heard the door opening, looked at the person holding a file bag as thick as a Chinese dictionary, and was a little stunned, "Brother Chen, this is..."

"Xiao Yang, go out, leave this place to me." Chen Yang opened his mouth to the young police officer.

Chen Yang will appear here, it means that he is responsible for the case.

"Hey, good. But Brother Chen...you should take it easy." When Xiao Yang was about to walk past Chen Yang, he said this to him with a sigh in his voice. Seeing that Chen Yang didn't respond, Xiao Yang Shaking his head for a while, he left.

How many people were full of confidence when they came in, because Xue Guan looked like a persimmon that was easy to handle, but who knew that it was a tough bone made of iron.

"Officer Chen, let's meet again." Xue watched Xiao Yang leave, and Chen Yang who walked in, with a well-characterized smile on his face, spoke to Chen Yang.

"Xue Guan, put away your tricks, it's useless to me." Chen Yang glanced at Xue Guan, but there was no change in the expression of the person in front of him. He just slowly opened the file bag at hand and pointed at Xue Guan. Said, "Before I interrogate you, let me tell you a story, Xue Guan."

Xue Guan raised his eyebrows with a smile, "Hehe, have you changed the method of torture? You are free to tell Police Officer Chen, if you are willing to speak, I will just listen."

"Every year on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, it is the traditional day of worshiping gods in Laoyangshu Village, Anping County, Huai City. According to the rules of Laoyangshu Village, blood is not allowed on this day, regardless of humans or animals. They believe that blood will offend the gods and bring troubles for the coming year..."

As soon as Chen Yang opened his mouth to tell the beginning of the story, the expression on Xue Guan's face changed, and cracks appeared in the mask-like smile that was portrayed.

"28 years ago, on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the mountains were covered by heavy snow. In the early morning of this day, a family living on the mountain pass in Laoyangshu Village gave birth to a baby boy, but because the mother was too old, he suffered from blood collapse after giving birth..."

"Enough." Xue Guan's hands that had been clenched together turned into fists, his face was ferocious, his eyes looked red, he opened his mouth and roared at Chen Yang, "Shut up !"

"There was so much bleeding that the mother was dying. Her husband rushed down the mountain like crazy to seek help from the villagers. In 32 families, the man kowtowed and begged one by one, begging for help to go up the mountain together to rescue his daughter-in-law."

"The villagers are stubborn. They think that a man's behavior will offend the gods, and that his woman's blood collapse will cause misfortune to the village in the coming year. Therefore, not only did they not treat the woman, but because the man went up the mountain to kill the woman who died of blood after the man told about it. She was dragged into the ancestral hall and punished to kneel, so that she could ask the gods to forgive Old Yangshu Village and not bring bad luck to the village."

"The man wanted to save his daughter-in-law like crazy, but the villagers refused to let the man go, because he was struggling so violently, the villagers beat the man seriously, broke six ribs, and broke a leg, then tied the man and threw him on the ground. on the pillars of the ancestral hall, and ask the gods for forgiveness."

"It's cold and cold, plus the woman's blood collapse after giving birth. Before the sun rises on this day, the woman will die. The man wailed and broke his hand bone, but no one came to save his life. The sun rises, and then the villagers By then, the woman's body was already completely cold."

"The man went up the mountain with the woman's body in despair. He wanted to die, but when he heard the baby's voice hoarse, he decided to die. The man changed his mind and wanted to raise the child and let the child grow up. Then I will avenge him. And that child is you, Xue Guan. No, it is Xue Ji."

"A widow, you have to remember that you were born with a blood debt, your life was bought by your mother, and your father became a widower on the first day of your birth. I want you to remember that your mother's life , Your father's suffering, everyone in Old Yangshu Village is the bloody enemy of our Xue family! '

From the time he was told until his father died, Xue Ji has already engraved it in his bones, but these hatreds have already been repaid, why use these hatreds as his shackles!Xue Ji's eyes were in a trance, as if he had fallen into those dark years again.

"18 years ago, old Xue Toutong died in depression on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. On this day of the same year, a near-destructive fire broke out in Laoyangshu Village. None of the 31 people in Laoyangshu Village survived the fire. Your household registration was moved out by accident, and your name was written as Xue Guan."

"In the same year, you entered Huaicheng University B. In this year, you met a male classmate named Qiao Jiu."

"Shut up, shut up! I'll tell you to shut up—" Xue Guan was about to go crazy, his whole body was trembling, and he bumped back and forth on the chair crazily, looking like a wild beast.

"Qiao Jiu is sunny, cheerful, with a good family background. He is the Prince Charming of the entire B University. He has a warm heart. Because he heard that there was an unfortunate fire in your village and you were left alone, he gave you his personal Let the bracelets you have worn for many years pray for you, and I hope you will have good luck in the future and will not be lonely anymore."

"I don't listen, I don't listen, I don't want to hear anything, I don't want to listen!" Xue Guan tried hard to raise his hand, his eyes were red as if blood had burst inside.

He tried hard to block his ears with both hands, trying to reach out to dig out the things that entered his mind, but he couldn't even lift his hands that were handcuffed.

"Xue Ji, your cell phone with the virus implanted, I have already found someone to restore it to its original state, all the information in it has been known to me, you are Xue Ji, and you are also 'Qiao Jiu'."

"You deliberately imitate Qiao Jiu's tone of voice, the way you dress, and even change the target of killing because of the similarity of a person's back to Qiao Jiu's..."

There were complexities in Chen Yang's dark eyes, staring at the skinny but violent lion-like humane in front of him, "But Xue Ji, it's time to wake up from the dream, Qiao Jiu has been immigrating for a full ten years."

☆、At the end【End】

Chen Yang's indifferent words, like a huge heavy hammer, slammed Xue Ji's forehead fiercely. Xue Ji tried his best to hook the corners of his lips, but he couldn't even lift the arc of irony.

"Hahaha! Haha..." Xue Ji began to laugh crazily, laughing crazily as if he wanted to crack his face, laughing like he wanted to protrude his eyes.

"In the past ten years, you have been stuck in the time when you met Qiao temporarily. You never left Huaicheng, and you didn't leave too far away from University B. Even the information you registered at the bar was that you were studying at the school. You used it for ten years to keep I lost Qiao Jiu in my mind, but changed Qiao Jiu beyond recognition."

"Li Cuifen is a daughter married off from Old Yangshu Village."

"Li Dong is the foster son of Old Yangshu Village."

"Yao Wen is the grandson of Li An in Old Yangshu Village."

"And the owner of courtyard No. 26 of the old building is an old bachelor who moved out of Laoyangshu Village 20 years ago, Li Weimin."

"It took you ten years to gather these people together. After seeing Chen Jianguo and Feng Yuanyuan's adultery, you started to plan the murder. It was indeed the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, but it was the most important day for you, because it was you birthday! It’s also the anniversary of your mother’s death!”

Xue Ji was panting, and his chest was panting so violently that it seemed as if his own chest was about to explode.

He was stripped naked just like in broad daylight, and all the concealment and conjectures were like filth, splashed on the ground majestically.

"Using what you know about Chen Jianguo and his wife, you bought three pairs of the same shoes in advance, and you put a new pair upstairs, waiting for Li Cuifen, who habitually steals your things, to take them away. She really gave her own request. Go back home, kid."

"Following that, threaten Chen Jianguo to murder his wife. Tell him that Li Cuifen already knows about the adultery between him and Feng Yuanyuan. She wants to fight Chen Jianguo desperately, and he wants him to act first."

"Chen Jianguo is hesitant. You take advantage of the inconvenient communication in their hometown. You take out the shoes you prepared in advance and tell Chen Jianguo that their son is in your hands. Let him choose a son or a woman. In short, it will cost a life!"

"In a panic, Chen Jianguo decided to kill Li Cuifen. In the middle of the night, he used the secret passage you opened in the old building to cooperate with the crime. Chen Jianguo opened the door with the key."

"Because Li Cuifen has the habit of taking sleeping pills after being woken up, Chen Jianguo changed her to a larger dose of pills, and you dragged those who did not resist directly to the old well to hack their heads, use [-] to decompose the blood, and then use The quicklime buried the smell, and the shroud was used to transport the person outside the Moon Moon Bar."

"You pushed yourself out as a ceremony to start this revenge, but Chen Jianguo had to cooperate with a series of things."

"Because you manipulated Chen Jianguo and made him think that his son was in your hands, he had to obediently admit his mistake, but this time is only valid before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the sixteenth day of the first lunar month is when their son is scheduled to return to Huaicheng, because We're going to start school."

"You calculated the time correctly and thought that you only need to show your face once, and after other things go well, you can leave Huaicheng and change your name and name, but you didn't expect that something went wrong in Wenyue Bar."

"You took advantage of the quarrel between Feng Yuanyuan and Li Dong, you wore the same jacket as Li Dong, tempted you to inhale Feng Yuanyuan whose core was replaced by nitrogen gas instead of nitrous oxide, and you arranged enough nitrogen gas to kill her bathroom."

"But because Feng Yuanyuan was unconscious, and because you were wearing the same clothes as Li Dong, she found her in front of your locker in the men's fitting room in a daze."

"Because the nitrogen and nitrous oxide in Feng Yuanyuan's body are not enough to cause death, and there is no more time to delay, you used Feng Yuanyuan's madness to directly create the illusion that she was holding her neck with both hands and strangling herself to death .”

While Chen Yang was talking, the expression on Xue Ji's face was always blank, like a cold-blooded sculpture without soul or emotion.

"You have paved the way for yourself a lot in the past ten years. The monitoring was disabled by you in advance. You still cut Li Dong's back on the monitoring at the back door of Wenyue Bar. Li Dong, who looks very similar from the back, is introduced into the game..."

"You actually wanted to kill Li Dong, right? But you couldn't do it, because his back looks too similar to Qiao Jiu's, and because Li Dong appeared in Wenyue Bar on his back, you were so distracted that you even forgot to check your locker Inside, there was an accidental stash of spent nitrogen partial pressures by other employees."

"Li Dong left Wenyue without finding Feng Yuanyuan like a fly without a head, but you have no time to go back."

"You used the secret door you opened in the old building to return to the room, and put on all the gestures that you were not at the scene of the incident, but the appearance of the partial pressure of nitrogen still implicated you in this matter. The two homicides happened, waiting for you to return to the old building and find that Yao Wen has moved."

"You spent three days following Yao Wen to determine his address, and then based on what you knew about his eating habits, you changed the takeaway chicken noodle soup he ordered to mushroom chicken noodle soup."

"Yao Wen's severe allergy to shiitake mushrooms will cause shock. You calculated the time and entered Yao Wen's room with the door opening method Chen Jianguo taught you. Yao Wen was almost in shock when you entered, but he recognized you because he was afraid. , Yao Wen wanted to escape."

"But his bed was by the window, and he was top-heavy when he was about to go into shock. You made Yao Wen fall directly from the fifth floor with a little force, and you returned to the old building right after you..."

Xue Ji suddenly laughed, which was different from the previous smile, nor was it the madness of that moment. This kind of smile seemed to be defeated, "Officer Chen, you are really good, and you actually let you know everything gone."

"Why aren't you resisting anymore?" Chen Yang had only turned through more than half of the thick, dictionary-like materials, and his big hands with well-defined bones pressed heavily on the materials, and his black eyes, like ink ingots, stared at Xue Ji .

Xue Widower took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, raised his eyes to look at the pale ceiling and said faintly, "Because I'm tired."

Chen Yang pursed his lips, looked at the widowed and thin Xue Ji, looked at the thick dark circles under his eyes, looked at his delicate face filled with hatred, and even looked at those eyes that were like stagnant water, at this moment Like a dying old man.

"What I told you before is true, Officer Chen, after I die, donate all my organs, ashes to ashes, and I have spent half my life paying off the blood debt I owed. , but I'm tired." There was relief in Xue Ji's eyes.

Only the life of hatred makes him live like a maggot in the gutter, and he yearns so much for a person with a light source in the dark.

But hope can't be expected, and what comes to the fantasy is nothing but a fantasy.

"Why didn't you think about living for yourself once?" Chen Yang slowly closed Chen Hou's document in his hand, looking at the man with vicissitudes and tiredness on his face, his heart felt as numb as if he had been pricked by a needle.

Living in hatred all the time, all life is for hatred, such a life is really tiring, how can you not be tired?

Xue Ji grinned, and the arc of the raised mouth was only sarcasm, "It's too late."
