Lu Yan & Ye Bei

BE.

002

Ye Bei put the tables and chairs back to their original positions, took out the garbage, washed the dishes, and drained the water on them.

He went into the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face, and went to the bedroom to change into a new set of clothes. When he came out, he pulled up Lu Yan who was sitting by the bed with a dull expression, took his hand, went to the entrance and knelt down to help He tied his shoelaces, and before going out, he secretly put the house key into his coat pocket.

As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she happened to meet Aunt Song who was out walking her dog across the door. She smiled at the young couple kindly, "It's rare to see you two early in the morning. Are you going for a walk in the park or going to the gym?"

Ye Bei rolled his eyes: "Take a walk, the weather is fine today, so I won't be bored in the room."

"Go, go." Aunt Song rolled up the dog leash, embraced the restless Teddy in her arms, and smoothed its soft fur, "I just made up the pork and celery stuffing yesterday, when you come back, give it to me." You make dumplings and eat."

Ye Bei nodded: "Thank you, Auntie, we are lucky again."

They stopped a taxi at the gate of the community, and Lu Yan and Ye Bei sat side by side in the back row, speechless.

The sun didn't warm the bodies of the two of them. Lu Yan had three cigarettes between his lips, and he smoked desperately. The smell was pungent and smoked his eyes. grid.

Ye Bei looked down at Lu Yan's hand hanging by his side.

When the palms were covered, the other party didn't give him any response. After a long time, Lu Yan and Ye Bei's ten fingers intertwined tightly, and they never wanted to separate.

The gate of the traffic police station was overcrowded.

The noise flooded into Lu Yan's ears, along the ear canal and blood vessels all the way to his knees, his calves seemed to be filled with lead, making his steps go limp, and he almost fell into Ye Bei's arms.

He regretted it a little.

Lu Yan subconsciously raised his hand to cover his face, followed Ye Bei numbly into the spacious office hall.

A female police officer hurried past them with a thick stack of file bags. Ye Bei opened his lips and teeth, and whispered a very soft whisper, which was covered up by more noisy noises.

They stood in a daze among the crowd for a while, when a familiar male voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "Lu Yan?"

The bald middle-aged man was pushed and shoved into the door by two police officers. The three of them stopped and turned their heads in surprise.

Lu Yan followed the sound, his heart sank, and he closed his eyes resignedly: "Squad Leader Qiu."

The male police officer immediately stepped forward, grabbed his wrist, and asked sharply, "Are you Lu Yan?"

Lu Yan straightened his lips, puffed out his cheeks and exhaled, but did not respond for a while.

All the office staff in the hall looked towards the door together. Reporters and spectators surrounded the door, and the scene was out of control and chaotic.

Squad leader Qiu was sitting at his desk waiting for the transcript. He was full of worry and glanced at Lu Yan from time to time. He saw that Lu Yan was walking towards the interrogation room with the shoulders held by the police.

Consciousness fluctuated between sobriety and fuzziness. When he passed the iron fence, he staggered. Lu Yan supported the wall, and the discussions of several people at the corner became very clear in the increasingly quiet corridor.

"I heard that it was the son of a wealthy businessman who was killed in the collision. He was a child of old age, but he was underage. It's really pitiful."

"If you lose money, you will lose more than 60 yuan at most. How can rich businessmen be rare for such a small amount of money?"

"That's a human life. If the other party really wants to pay the driver's blood, how will the case be judged?"

"A life sentence is also a possibility."

life imprisonment.

Lu Yan's face turned pale, and he panicked instantly. Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and ran to Ye Bei who was stunned by the gate, shouting desperately: "Ye Bei, I want to go home! I don't want to go home!" Sent in prison for the rest of my life, I want to go home!"

The crowd around behind opened a gap, and a couple supported each other and walked into the police station hall. The makeup on the woman's face was stained by crying, and she looked haggard. The crow's feet piled up at the corners of her eyes clearly showed that she was no longer young. .

Hearing the shout, the woman raised her head in shock, and slashed at Lu Yan, who was not far away, with a sharp knife. She gritted her teeth and said, "It was you who killed my son...it was you!"

At this moment, Ye Bei turned around abruptly, and with a loud "dong", he knelt down in front of the couple.

He murmured "I'm sorry" repeatedly, tears running down his cheeks and down his jaw: "I'm really sorry."

"I'm sorry?" The woman shook off her husband's hand vigorously, and threw the expensive crocodile leather bag at Ye Bei, bleeding instantly from the corner of her forehead, "Just say a few words of sorry and the fuck is over? Do you think it's that simple? I... I want you to pay for my son's life!"

Lu Yan was knocked to the ground by the rushing police officers, his nose was bruised, and he was crying in pain.

Ye Bei grabbed the woman's trousers without hesitation, and begged blindly: "I beg you, please forgive Lu Yan, he didn't do it on purpose, he really didn't do it on purpose, I beg you..."

Someone kicked his collarbone viciously, and his upper body fell straight back. Ye Bei lay on the ground in despair, and the police officers in the hall all gathered towards them.

"You didn't do it on purpose. My son is only 17 years old. What did he do wrong?" The man put his arms around his wife's shoulders, pointed at Ye Bei ferociously, and then pointed at Lu Yan, who was streaming down his face, with a decisive tone, "I want the man surnamed Lu to pay for his life. No matter how bad it is, I will hire the best lawyer and at least let him sit in prison!"

Ye Bei knelt in front of the gate of the police station, his expression was like a pool of stagnant water, he half closed his eyelids, and looked at Lu Yan who was getting further and further away from him.

The outlines of the surrounding things gradually magnified on the retina into a mottled phantom.

His dry lips trembled slightly, and after a long time, he lowered his head like a puppet with broken strings, and murmured, "Did I...do something wrong."

Ye Bei couldn't remember how he got home. There was a little smell of inferior tobacco in the empty room. Without changing his shoes, he threw down the keys and went straight to the sofa, and lay down on his side.

Ye Bei bent his arms and rested his elbows on his pillow. In his ear canals was the sound of his restless heartbeat. After a long time, he felt sleepy and tired, so he closed his eyes and let his consciousness sink into the boundless darkness.

In the dream, it was Lu Yan's miserable cry and his last gentle questioning.

"Xiaobei, do you really love me?"

The boy who was hit died at the scene.

However, the surveillance video captured that Lu Yan got out of the car and glanced at the body, then drove away in a panic again. The opposing lawyer believed that he deliberately did not choose to rescue the victim and abandoned the victim on the side of the road, which eventually led to the tragedy.

Half a year later, the court read the verdict in court. Lu Yan was sentenced to life imprisonment for the crime of hit-and-run and intentional homicide.
