one punch

The life and death certificate was signed after all.

Because Dou Tianxiao felt that if he didn't sign, it would be impossible to walk out of that door alive.

08:30 arrived in a blink of an eye, and as soon as the gong sounded, Dou Tianxiao's eyes followed the LCD screen on the wall like everyone else.

The contents of the octagonal cage have not been cleaned up yet! ?

As soon as the two boxers entered the ring, Dou Tianxiao's eyelids twitched. He finally realized that those were not sundries, but props for the boxers to attack their opponents!

This is not a boxing match at all!It's a brawl!

The first pair to play, one with a bald head and one with pigtails. The bald head has a muscular body, and he looks like a Lianjiazi at first glance. The one with the pigtails is quite different from him in terms of height and body shape, but his eyes are gloomy and fierce. It must be nothing. good stubble.

According to Sun Yi's introduction, the bald head is an old boxer, and his opponent is a well-known gangster in the Tao. He has participated in several competitions and is always the winner. These two people also have a lot of records.

This is the first time they have played against each other. It is probably because of their size. The odds for the bald head are 1:2, and the odds for the pigtailed one are 1:3.

Dou Tianxiao knew nothing about gambling, so he turned his head and asked, "What do odds mean?"

Sun Yi snorted, "Don't you understand? For example, if I bet 100 yuan on the bald head, I can get 200 if he wins. If I win by betting on the pigtail, I can get 300 if he wins."

"Then did you suppress it?" Dou Tianxiao asked.

"I bet you to win!" Sun Yi rubbed his hands and motioned him to look at the gaming table, "Here! Your odds are 1:10! Your opponent's odds are 1:1.5, I bet 5000 yuan on you Body! You have to give me a good fight!"

"If I win, will you make a net profit of [-] a night?" Dou Tianxiao narrowed his eyes.

"Smart!" Sun Yi snapped his fingers.

At this moment, Dou Tianxiao saw that someone at the next table overwhelmed his opponent, 100 million.

Before, he didn't quite understand the attraction of gambling and why so many people were addicted to it, but now he felt that if he had money, he would really want to pressure himself to win.

But the odds are so high, which means that the opponent is not as easy to deal with as Sun Yi said...

The fact is just as Dou Tianxiao thought, the man he was fighting with was 32 years old and had decades of gangster experience. His best winning streak in the underground boxing gym was [-] times.

The moves on stage were so flamboyant that the two muscles on his chest could tremble freely following the rhythm of the music, screaming from the bottom of the shaking, and finally he thought he was handsome and showed off a set of punches, which was greeted with thunderous applause.

When Dou Tianxiao entered the stage, the cheers and applause immediately weakened, and only Sun Yi whistled, "Come on! Fuck him!"

what the hell...

You you on the line.

Dou Tianxiao stared at the giant who was almost two heads taller than him, feeling a little anxious to urinate.

"Brother, let's say it first, you don't slap people in the face, and I still rely on my face to make a living."

The giant raised the corner of his mouth and sneered, before the whistle sounded, he clenched his right fist and slammed it straight at the bridge of Dou Tianxiao's nose.

"Fuck!" Dou Tianxiao sideways avoided.

Whatever you say, just come!

Ye Xi didn't see the text message that Dou Tianxiao sent to Ye Xi during the day.

Since his father fell ill, he went to the clothing city with his classmates every weekend to buy goods, and set up a street stall near the school every day after class, earning a little money. Unfortunately, today he encountered an urban management patrol, and he carried A lot of things ran from West Street to East Street, escaped the urban management, but was scolded by the clothes seller on East Street, saying that he was stealing business, so he called two tough guys to come out and frame him.

The phone didn't know whether it was dropped in the middle of the run or someone fumbled it away. It was only when he wanted to call his mother that he found that it was missing. He went back and searched but couldn't find it.

The mood of setting up a stall is gone.

He packed up the mess and put it back in the dormitory before rushing back to the station. It was almost nine o'clock when he got home.

Nobody at home.

There were three dishes and one soup under the dust cover on the dining table, and it looked like it was made by his younger brother. After he devoured everything, he sent a message to Dou Tianxiao on his computer.

Blessed with the kind of handsomeness: Where is the skin?Not coming home yet.

After taking a shower, it was already ten o'clock, and Dou Tianxiao's QQ profile picture remained dark, so he sent a message to Jiang Ran.

The kind of handsome man blessed by nature: Did my brother run to your house again?

The kind of handsome who is blessed by nature: I tell you that if you don't feed him, he will behave like Xiaotu, run wherever there is food, and be careful not to leave at your house in the future.

Jiang Ran said in his heart, that would be good, but it's a pity that the domestic dogs have gone with other non-mainstream.

A ball of fire: Not at my house, said to go to a party with friends.

The kind of handsome who is blessed by nature: pull it down, is he nestled in your bed again and refuses to leave?It's okay, if you don't like him snoring, you can tell me, I'll scold him, don't be embarrassed.

A fire: really not.

Jiang Ran turned on the camera and shook it towards the head of the bed: "He hasn't been here today. I wanted to go to school with my dad to pick him up. He told me to have dinner with friends, so he didn't contact me."

Ye Xi gave a "tsk", dialed Dou Tianxiao's number from the landline, and cursed in a low voice, "What time is it, I don't come home all day, like a wild dog."

In the night, two beams of orange lights cut through the darkness and shone straight into the community.

Ye Xi was lying on the balcony listening to music, watching the two beams of light shorten little by little, approaching her own building, and finally stopped at the bottom of the building.

By the light of the street lamp, he saw the co-pilot of the taxi get on and off, and opened the back seat to reveal a drunk man. The drunk man looked like he was going to fall at any time.

The drunk man's clothes look familiar...

That bastard Dou Tianxiao!

Ye Xi immediately threw away the MP4 in his hand and ran to the elevator. When he ran downstairs, the taxi had disappeared. He only saw Dou Tianxiao holding on to the wall with one hand and covering his lower abdomen with his right hand.

Dou Tianxiao dragged his heavy steps, walking lightly and slowly, even the voice-activated lights were dimmed, but because of Ye Xi's appearance, the lights turned on again.

The moment their eyes met, they were shocked.

Dou Tianxiao's eye circles were blue and purple, his lower lip was cleft with blood, his cheeks, ears, and bridge of nose had large and small wounds, some of which seemed to be scratched by some sharp objects, which made his scalp numb.

"What's the matter with you!?" Ye Xi was so frightened that her heart speeded up, "Huh? Was someone hit you?"

Dou Tianxiao originally thought that the reason was that he was injured in boxing with others, but now he thought that the car accident was a good reason, nodded, and said weakly: "Ah... um."

"What's the situation? Who hit you? Where did you hit it? What car? Did you see the license plate number clearly? When did it happen? Where is the other person?..."

A series of questions came out of Ye Xi's mouth, and Dou Tianxiao suddenly felt that the reason for the car accident was simply terrible.

"You let me take it easy..." Let me make up a reason first.

Dou Tianxiao's mind is not very good at all, just after being beaten dizzy, he will be in a trance, a little unable to react.

Seeing him clutching his stomach, Ye Xi hurriedly asked: "Is there any other injury? Did you go to the hospital for an examination? How about I send you to the emergency room?"

"No, I'm fine." Dou Tianxiao waved his hand.

There is a simple medical room right next to the place where they fought. After he won the match, Si Ye had someone check him up. His bones were fine, and the knife wound on his lower abdomen had been bandaged. As for the small wound on his face, he Originally, I wanted to find a reason to sneak past, but I didn't expect to be bumped into by Ye Xi.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Dou Tianxiao tried to change the subject.

Ye Xi reached out to lift his sweater, but was restrained by Dou Tianxiao, "What are you doing?"

"What's the matter with you? Huh?" Ye Xi frowned, "What's wrong with your stomach?"

"It's okay." Dou Tianxiao breathed out, puffed out his chest and pressed the elevator floor, "The man sent me to the hospital for a checkup, and it was all scratches, you bumped it back and forth, and it hurts. "

Under the light, Dou Tianxiao's face was pale, his lips were chapped, and he looked as if he would die immediately after losing too much blood.

Ye Xi looked at him suspiciously, "Really? Then lift it up yourself and let me see."

"Look and see what's interesting. My handsome eight-pack is for my future partner. It's up to me to practice." Dou Tianxiao leaned on the car, breathing as calmly as possible.

From the reflection of the car, he saw the shocking wound on his face.

Hold……

How disfigured!

"Who hit you?" Ye Xi saw that he was full of energy again, and guessed that his internal organs were not damaged.

"On the road, a..." Dou Tianxiao felt that a car might sound too serious, so he chose an electric car, "Little electric donkey, he was riding too fast, and he had no time to brake when he was turning, so he hit the handlebar. It hit my stomach, it hurt a little, but it's actually much better now."

"Why are you so careless..." Ye Xi looked at the wound on his face distressedly, "I'll help you find a few band-aids to put on, or you'll rub the wound at night when you sleep."

Relying on his superb acting skills, Dou Tianxiao perfunctory Ye Xi, went back to the room and immediately locked the door, lifted the clothes to look, a scarlet blood seeped out through the gauze, and stained the clothes.

He took off his clothes and threw them aside, took out a roll of clean gauze from his trouser pocket and put it on the bed, then cut the dead knot on his body with scissors.

The gauze was stuck to the unfolded flesh, and when it was torn off, he broke out in a cold sweat and his fingertips were trembling.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, tearing off all the gauze all at once, the same feeling at that moment was as if the knife had been cut across his body again.

Dou Tianxiao supported the edge of the bed with one hand, gritted his teeth and endured.

The wound on the lower abdomen was as long as his middle finger. It ran from the side of the waist to the middle, but the angle was a little bit off, and the incision was pulled down. The doctor simply sewed him four stitches.

Breathing involves tight skin.

It hurts.

Although he was often bullied when he was a child, he was well protected by his family and Jiang Ran. It was the first time he suffered such bruises, and it felt like a dream.

Everything including tonight is like a dream.

No, this dream should be extended a little longer. It was like a dream when the doctor diagnosed my uncle's illness.

It would be great if it was a dream.

He wrapped himself in seven or eight layers of gauze, and after making sure that no more blood would ooze out, he changed into a loose pajamas.

There was 2000 yuan in the inner pocket of the down jacket, and [-] yuan was taken by the black doctor who stitched up his wound.

There was no way, in the situation at that time, he felt that he would not be able to survive tonight if he had to deal with the wound quickly.

His opponent was even worse than him. Not to mention losing the game, he also lost a large amount of medical expenses.

Flashy muscles have no endurance, and they are basically beaten in the later stage.

Dou Tianxiao was soft-handed, and in the end he still controlled the strength, just beat the other party to the bone, probably after a while of self-cultivation.

I won the boxing match, but how to give the more than 2 yuan to my family is a problem.

It was suspicious that such a large sum of money appeared in his pocket.

He put a few plasters on his tendons and lay on the bed thinking for a while.

Simply say that the scholarship is given to grandpa, anyway, the whole family is best fooled by grandpa.

There was a sound of walking outside the door, and he heard Ye Xi calling someone, "Ah, I'm back... I didn't drink too much, and I was bumped by someone accidentally... Well, it's okay, it's not serious, how about you Call him and ask..."

Dou Tianxiao thought it was his uncle and aunt, but the word 'Brother Ran' flashed in the center of the phone screen.

He picked up the phone, still a little excited in his exhaustion, "Brother, you haven't slept yet?"

"You were hit by someone? Is it serious? What's going on?..."

A series of questions, Dou Tianxiao once again perfunctory, but considering that Jiang Ran's brain is smarter than Ye Xi, he lied very rigorously, and even wrote down the other party's license plate number in a small notebook.

"Don't you know that I'm worried if you don't answer so many calls?"

Hearing the fierce tone on the other end of the phone, Dou Tianxiao suddenly felt that the wound didn't hurt so much anymore.

He turned sideways, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up, "I haven't been to your house for a long time, do you miss me?"

Dou Tianxiao's voice was very soft, ambiguous in his weakness.

Jiang Ran was stunned by his question.

Want to?

Of course I do.

I've been thinking about it ever since that inexplicable kiss.

But this kind of thinking is not recognized. He feels that Dou Tianxiao now is like a difficult math problem, which involves too many knowledge points, and it will take a little time for him to solve it slowly.

Just thinking about it doesn't mean anything.

The result is to avoid this question directly, "If you go home with me early, you will be fine..."

go home with me.

I don't know if it's because of the life-and-death battle just now, or because it's easy to dream about things in the middle of the night, but Dou Tianxiao is very sensitive to these words, and even feels warm all over his body.

Jiang Ran seems to care more about himself than before.

This discovery made him feel pleasantly surprised, his Adam's apple rolled, "Jiang Ran..."

"What do you call me? No big or small." The other party's tone was not kind.

Dou Tianxiao didn't give up immediately this time, "Actually, I've grown up... I'm almost an adult."

This sentence has nothing to do with what they talked about before, but it made Jiang Ran's heart beat violently, "Then what?"

"Don't keep treating me like a child," Dou Tianxiao buried his head in the bed, his voice sounded muffled, "Besides, I'm only two years younger than you."

This strange topic is certainly not brought up for no reason.

Jiang Ran's throat tightened suddenly, "Then I'm your brother too."

Dou Tianxiao was silent for a while, closed his eyes and said, "Have you ever thought about falling in love?"

Jiang Ran was also silent on the other side, "I didn't think about it before you asked the question."

"And after that?" When this question was asked, he felt his voice tremble a little.

"Xiaoxiao." Jiang Ran's voice was deep.

Dou Tianxiao opened his eyes.

When he was a child, Jiang Ran gave him various nicknames, 'Little Earth Dog', 'Salt Sprout', 'Little Bean Sprout', and the most catchy one is 'Little Sweet Bean'... After growing up, he basically called him by his first name , It is rare to call nicknames.

This "Xiaoxiao" shout was quite affectionate, and there was a kind of long-lost tenderness that enveloped him.

But Jiang Ran's next sentence woke him up like a pot of cold water.

"Tell me honestly..." Jiang Ran never thought that he would have to muster up the courage to talk to Dou Tianxiao one day, "Did you not drink Fragrance that night?"
