Chapter 108: How to interpret the word brother?
Triad company, in the basement.
After Li Jingbo waited for Yang Dong to leave, he stood in silence for nearly a minute, and when his heart was full of doubts, he hooked the key of the handcuffs with his toes, and then slowly squatted down and began to reach the key on the ground with his hands.
Five minutes later.
"Whoa!"
Li Jingbo squatted on the ground in a strange shape, sweating on his forehead for a long time, and finally opened the handcuffs.
"Goo-dong!"
After losing the restraint of the handcuffs, Li Jingbo was weightless, sat on the ground with a buttocks, and slowed down for a long time before enduring the pain from all over his body, walked to the table, picked up Yang Dong's mobile phone, and pressed the unlock button.
"Brush!"
As the mobile phone screen lit up, Li Jingbo's expression suddenly became solemn, because the scene on the cover of the video was very familiar to him, and the low adobe house in the picture instantly aroused Li Jingbo's thoughts, because the meaning it represents is exactly what Li Jingbo can no longer enjoy for the rest of his life, and the word is called - home!
After staring at the freeze-frame video cover for a long time, Li Jingbo pressed the play button with trembling fingers.
"Salad!"
With a rustling sound from the mobile phone speaker, the video began to play, more than ten seconds later, the first figure in the picture walked out of Li Jingbo's door and appeared in the courtyard, because this video was recorded by Zhang Ao at night, so the image is not very clear, and Li Jingbo's home is located in a relatively remote location, so the only light source in the video is a little light that penetrates through the window into the yard.
Although the image of the video is blurry, people can't see the face of the person in the painting clearly, but Li Jingbo still identified Li Chao at a glance by that blurred figure, for so many years, Li Jingbo has always regarded Li Chao as his best brother, and the two of them are too familiar.
Li Jingbo saw Li Chao's figure appear in the video, and he was extremely surprised in his mind, he really couldn't figure out why Li Chao appeared at his home in the middle of the night.
The content of the video did not stop because of Li Jingbo's thoughts, and a few seconds later, Li Jingbo's grandmother also followed out of the room.
A few seconds later, Grandma Li was a little excited in the video, and reached out to grab Li Chao, and then between the pulls, the banknotes in Li Chao's arms were scattered, and they also began to push and shove with Grandma Li.
"Someone, catch the robber!" Grandma Li's helpless cry was faintly heard in the speaker of her mobile phone.
"I'll fuck you!" Li Chao roared angrily and drew his knife suddenly.
β...... This brute!" After Li Chao moved the knife, Zhang Ao's clear scolding sounded, and the video began to tremble slightly.
In the blurry video image, the sharp knife in Li Chao's hand was like a stray firefly, constantly flashing with white light, waving towards Grandma Li.
Seven knives in a row!
The knife is deadly!
At the same time as Li Chao moved, the video began to shake violently, and at the same time there was the sound of running, and when the video was clear again, the perspective was already very weird and fell to the ground, and only half of Grandma Li's body could be vaguely filmed, as well as a large area of blood reflecting fluorescence.
"Brush!"
Li Jingbo looked at the grandmother who fell to the ground in the picture, her body twitching slightly, and her vision was directly blurred by tears.
"Brute, even old people, do you still have no humanity!" As the video froze on Grandma Li, Zhang Ao also roared angrily, and in the still video screen, the sounds of fighting and scolding continued one after another.
Less than a minute later, Zhang Ao's figure appeared in the video, covering his arm and picking up the mobile phone that had fallen to the ground.
At this point, the video abruptly stopped and began to play again.
......
In the dimly lit basement, Li Jingbo sat on a chair, his face constantly being reflected in various colors by the flickering mobile phone screen, his eyes were dull, and the kind of rebelliousness in his eyes that had never disappeared before was gone.
He couldn't figure out when he got to where he is today!
He couldn't figure it out, he poured out his heart and lungs to Li Chao, why did Li Chao kill his grandmother!
He couldn't figure out why his family, the only family he could rely on in this world, was tragically poisoned!
He couldn't figure out how his ambition to become a big bastard could end up ruined!
He couldn't figure out why when Zhang Ao, the other party, could rush up and fight with others in order to save his grandmother, Li Chao could choose to raise the butcher's knife to his brother's family without any psychological burden.
Li Jingbo is not a fool, he has always known that Li Chao is an untrustworthy person, but he still chooses to accompany Li Chao to toss, go crazy, and do the last carnival on the road to the end, because Li Chao's actions after the accident in Daming made Li Jingbo firmly believe that he is human.
Because of Li Chao, Li Jingbo's life was ruined.
Loved ones, gone!
Home, too!
Half an hour later.
"Smack!"
Li Jingbo raised his palm, pointed it to his face, used the greatest strength in his life, and slapped it down, tears flowing irrepressibly: "Why you?!"
β......β
No one responded.
"Smack!"
"Grandma!
"Smack!"
"I'm homesick!"
"Smack!"
"I'm going to eat the egg fried rice you made!"
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
β...οΌβ
In the empty basement, only the sound of slaps on the cheeks kept echoing.
Li Jingbo collapsed.
This simple-minded teenager who values the word brother above everything else has never wavered in friendship.
But at this moment, he had firmly believed in his belief for many years, and he was completely crushed by a video left by Yang Dong.
When everyone chose to abandon Li Chao and go, Li Jingbo chose to stay by Li Chao's side without hesitation, and marched and retreated with him, because the two of them were the best brothers, for this brother, Li Jingbo was willing to help Li Chao hide the fact of killing Wang Xinming, and even Li Chao committed a series of later murders, which made Li Jingbo's heart full of fear, he chose to grit his teeth and did not flinch, because Li Jingbo believed that Li Chao was desperate, if he abandoned him at this time, then there would really be no one to take care of him, Li Jingbo gave up everything he had, just to be right with the word brother in his heartγ
Fighting for his brother, Li Jingbo has no regrets.
However, the video footage that kept being played in front of him was telling Li Jingbo with extremely realistic and naked answers that his only blood relative died at the hands of the best brother in his heart.
How should the word brother be interpreted?
Faced with this answer, which he had never thought about but completely destroyed himself, Li Jingbo's dull eyes were gradually filled with fear and helplessness, and finally from despair to emptiness.
He is only twenty-one years old, but in this wonderful world, he has no relatives and no friends.
......
An hour later.
"Bang dang!"
When Li Jingbo was sitting in a daze, Yang Dong pushed open the door of the basement as promised, and after seeing Li Jingbo's colorless eyes, he sat on the chair opposite with an expressionless face and did not make a sound.
"Give me a cigarette. After about five minutes, Li Jingbo's voice was hoarse.
"I have injuries and can't smoke. Yang Dong rejected Li Jingbo expressionlessly, and sat up straight: "Tell me your choice." β
After listening to Yang Dong's words, Li Jingbo was silent again, and after another minute or so, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Don't hand me over to the police, okay." β
"You've got to give me a reason not to hand you over to the police. Yang Dong looked at Li Jingbo and was noncommittal.
"I know about Luohan's arrest, because when Li Chao called the police to report that Luohan killed Wang Xinming, I was next to me, I know, you want to hand me over to the police, you want Paul Han to be safe, but on my own, you can't get Luohan back...... Wang Xinming was killed by Li Chao, not only Wang Xinming, but also Li Chao single-handedly did what he did to Huang Baojun, so I didn't directly participate in what he did to Huang Baojun, so I don't know the specific details of his action, the only thing I know is that Li Chao pretended to be your person to attack Huang Baojun, pretending to fail the sneak attack, and left him with an air pistol. β
"You continue. Yang Dong sat opposite Li Jingbo and responded softly, and at the same time was thinking about the authenticity of Li Jingbo's words, Li Jingbo's words had made Yang Dong believe most of them, before that, Yang Dong had always believed that whether it was Wang Xinming's death or Huang Baojun's family's successive accidents, it should be from Li Jingbo's handwriting, because with his understanding of Li Chao, he felt that Li Chao really didn't look like a person who had the courage to operate, but since Li Chao killed Li Jingbo's grandmother, Yang Dong suddenly felt that Li Chao seemed to have really changed.
"Li Chao is a very smart and cunning person, as long as he wants to hide, let alone you, even the police will find him very difficult. When Li Jingbo spoke, his voice was unusually calm: "But I'm different, because I'm too familiar with Li Chao, I know all his circle of friends, and I also know all the places where he can hide, if there is one person in the entire big L city who can find Li Chao's whereabouts, that person must be me, only if I find Li Chao, can I help Luo Han clear his suspicion, isn't it?"
"Regardless of whether what you said is true or not, even if you didn't lie to me, but now that your grandmother has died in the hands of Li Chao, how can you assure me that after you see Li Chao, you won't get rid of him on the spur of the moment?"
"There are too many cases on Li Chao, as long as he is arrested, he will definitely die, but I still have to live. When Li Jingbo said this, his expression was painful: "I want to talk to you about a condition. β
"Tell me about it. β
"I don't know the law, but I also know that after Li Chao went in, I can't get better, now my grandmother is dead, I have no one in this world, there is no one to worry about, but I'm sorry for one more person, I have a girlfriend, called Xue Le, her father is a bad gambler, her mother is a sitting, Xue Le's family is very messy, when I was with me, I promised to take care of her forever, and now it seems that I am going to break my promise. Li Jingbo sighed: "I can help you find Li Chao, on the condition that after Luohan is released, you will get a sum of money for my girlfriend, at least 100,000." β
"You are now wanted, and I don't hand you over to the police, which is already considered a favor, why do you think that your help in finding Li Chao can become a bargaining chip in negotiations with me?" Yang Dong responded with a serious face.
"Without me, you'll never find him!"
'I'll find him, it's just a matter of time. Yang Dong corrected softly.
"I can also help you get rid of Liu Baolong!" Li Jingbo was silent for a long time, and then increased his bargaining chips: "I know that there is a deep hatred between you and Liu Baolong, but both of you have already gone online with the police, and I have a rotten life, and I can already give up everything, as long as you agree to my conditions, I will help you kill Liu Baolong, I swear, this matter will never bite you!"
