Chapter 14 No Police
"Who did it!" Gan Luo looked at her, touched her shoulder, twitched in pain, carefully pulled away her long sleeves, a long whip mark was red, swollen and purple, seeing that she was silent, she suppressed her voice and asked, "Is it him?" ”
"Fall...... Falling. ”
Xiaomei pulled down her sleeves, gritted her teeth and looked down at her, turned her back to Zhou Jingrui and Deng Yanghui, and trembled a little.
Gan Luo hugged Xiaomei and used his body to block her and look at the two people standing not far away: "Brother Yanghui, I'll help you next time." ”
"Zhou Jingrui, you go back first. ”
"Okay, I'll come to play with you next time" Deng Yanghui said, divided the bamboo elephant into three parts, left one for Ganluo, and stuffed one into Zhou Jingrui's hand, he withdrew his hand and didn't plan to take it, but he didn't want the other party to grab a handful and stuff it directly into his pocket.
"......" The corners of Zhou Jingrui's mouth twitched, and he patted Deng Yanghui on the shoulder, "Thank you!"
The two looked at each other, packed up their things and got up, and looked at Gan Luo, who was holding Xiaomei on the ground: "If you need it, say it." ”
"Good. ”
"Come into the house with me. Ganluo helped Hu Mei into the house, didn't ask again, and took iodophor and a cotton swab to help her treat her wounds.
"I'll disinfect it with alcohol first, you bear with it. ”
Ganluo examined her injuries carefully, the bruises on her forehead were bloody, the marks were bruised and swollen, the edge of her hairline was scratched, and the blood was mixed with her hair to form a lump, most likely hitting the corner of the table or something.
The wound on the arm is regular, the wound is in the shape of a long strip, and the wound can only be formed by whipping with an object such as a belt.
Seeing that Hu Mei didn't say a word, Gan Luo lowered his eyes and wiped it gently with a cotton swab, "Let's deal with it first, I'll get some anti-inflammatory later." ”
"Xiao Luo, can you let me stay with you tonight?"
"Yes. Gan Luo nodded, gently brushed the hair from Hu Mei's forehead with one hand, the blood from the wound was not yet dry, he took a breath to hold back his anger, and got up to boil hot water.
"Xiao Luo, thank you. ”
Hu Mei watched Ganlo head towards the kitchen, curled up in the couch and hugged herself, burying her head in her knees, the burning pain in her arms and forehead still not faded, tears rolling in her eyes.
"How many times has this been?" said Ganlo as he reached the kitchen with the water, and the basins on the shelves clattered.
The trills of the iron basin hitting the ground were piercing.
The two men were silent, and the room fell silent in a trill.
The water from the faucet rinsed the blood from his hands, and Ganlo propped his hands on the stove.
"I didn't understand what you meant. Hu Mei's palms were sweaty, and she looked up in her direction.
The footsteps approached step by step, and Hu Mei hugged herself tighter.
"Why don't you call the police?" said the words, almost squeezing out between his teeth. Ganlo stared at her condescendingly, "This time you escaped!
"Ganluo!" Hu Mei looked up at her, tears bursting into her eyes, clasping her hands on her knees and gritting her teeth.
"He's my dad. I can't. ”
Ganlo was furious, "But he's a bastard!"
"Ganluo, he's my father!" Hu Mei said hoarsely, glaring at the person in front of her, her face pale with blood mixed with tears.
"I called the police, he was arrested, where can I go?" Hu Mei almost collapsed, her hands wrapped herself in a ball, "My mother doesn't want me, my relatives watch the excitement, I am just one of his relatives, what can I do!"
"He was very protective of me when I was sober, and today he was drunk and treated me as a mother, so he beat me. Hu Mei choked up, her body trembling, "He told me that he would quit drinking." ”
"But ......" Ganluo looked at Hu Mei, who was covered in tears and wounded, and clenched his hands tightly, and the words stuck in his throat when they reached his mouth.
"Xiao Luo, you are not me. Hu Mei interrupted her, raised her eyes to look at her, her voice trembling, "You're not me." My situation is only to endure. ”
Ganluo gritted his teeth and looked up at the ceiling, the tears he was holding back still couldn't help but burst out of his eyes.
stepped forward and hugged Hu Mei, who was crying silently, choked and gently patted her shoulder.
"I'm scared, I'm scared that my only relative doesn't want me. Hu Mei trembled, "Xiao Luo, I'm so scared." I only have a friend like you, and I'm afraid that you will look down on me because of things at home, and I have nowhere to go. ”
"Fool, I'm not much better. Later, when he goes to drink, you will come to me secretly. ”
"Hmm. Hu Mei nodded, looked up and grabbed Ganluo's hand, looking at her face with a little ghosting, "Xiao Luo, I'm a little dizzy." ”
Raising his hand and touching the other party's forehead, he had a fever, "I'll help you go to the room and sleep for a while." ”
"I'm going to buy medicine and I'll be back in a minute. The door is closed, and if an outsider knocks, don't answer it. ”
"Good. ”
Ganluo settled Hu Mei, put on his coat and walked out quickly.
The sound of bamboo being blown off by the wind outside the house came and went, and at seven o'clock in the evening, the night was approaching, and the chickens and dogs were crowing in the distance.
Thunder and lightning were heard in the distance, and the ground was chopped like a knife and an axe, and lightning flashed, and the black clouds went westward, and there must be a torrential rain.
Ganluo put on her raincoat and rode her bike in the direction of the town doctor's house, if fast enough, she could be back before the rainstorm came.
Zhou Jingrui sat motionless under the verandah, the books on the table were blown wildly by the wind, and the acacia flowers in the courtyard were scattered.
A thunderclap exploded in the clouds, and the torrential rain poured down in an instant.
The rain burst out like ten thousand arrows, the corrugated was hit with a loud sound, the heat stored in the ground during the day was dispersed in an instant, and the rainwater gathered into a waterfall and poured into the eaves.
"Xiao Rui, where are you going?" Aunt Liu saw Zhou Jingrui take the umbrella and ran towards the rain, and as soon as the plate in her hand was put down, she hurriedly dragged it.
"Something, go out. ”
Before he left the courtyard, the rain had covered the upper of his shoes, so he closed the door casually and stepped on a pile of mud towards Ganluo's house.
"Let him go. Grandma Zhou stood at the door, looking up at the dark clouds, "The girl is home alone, and it is better to have someone to accompany her." ”
"Wangwang!" Dada saw the man ascending the steps, barking at him, clawing at the ground, and staring at him.
"Ganluo!" the room was dark, no lights were turned on, and no one answered when they knocked on the door, "Ganluo!"
"Wang! Dada saw Zhou Jingrui put away the umbrella, saw the other party's face clearly, and turned to bark into the rain.
"Where can she go with such heavy rain?" looked up at the sky, and silver shimmered in the clouds.
Dada turned his head to look in the direction Ganlo had left, heard the sound of the wheel, and got up and wagged his tail.
Zhou Jingrui heard the sound and rushed into the rain with an umbrella.
Between the laneways of the two houses, Ganluo pushed her bicycle and stopped in place, looking up at the person holding the umbrella in front of her, the umbrella covering her head, and the sound of rain falling on the umbrella surface.
The black stone-like eyes reflected the lightning flash, still with a hint of charm, but this time, Zhou Jingrui was frozen in place.
The raincoat didn't fit, her hair was wet, and water was inside, making her even more thin and thin.
"Help park the bike. Before he could finish speaking, Ganlo threw away his bicycle and walked towards the door.
"What's wrong with your feet?"
"Little things. Ganlo limped to the door and took out the key to open the door.
"You find your own seat. ”
Taking off her raincoat, she took out the medicine she had bought from her coat, which was still dry in a plastic bag.
He didn't say a word, he stood quietly, watching her every move.
When he arrived at the warm water, he went into the house and fed Hu Mei antipyretic medicine by the faint light of the window, "There are also anti-inflammatory, and I will eat after I wake up and eat." "She didn't turn on the light, she was soaking wet, and when she turned on the light, Humei would see it.
"Good. Hu Mei nodded, grabbed Ganluo's sleeve with her hand, and it was full of rain, and the thunder outside the window was deafening, and her eyes suddenly turned red, "Xiaoluo, thank you." ”
"Thank you for taking it, be obedient, and get some sleep. ”
Ganlo changed into dry clothes and led the door into the living room.
In the living room, there was no figure of him, and the sound of water flowing came from the kitchen.
Holding a towel in one hand to wipe his hair, Gan Luo leaned against the kitchen door curiously, looked at Zhou Jingrui's back, and said after a while: "You can also cook?"
"Drink. Zhou Jingrui filled a full bowl of boiled ginger soup and handed it to her, slowing down his tone and adding, "This, to ward off the cold." ”
Gan Luo took it in a daze, took a sip, the ginger juice was strong, full of spicy, and he thought that everything he dug up today was cooked?
"Thank you. She smiled in her eyes, her eyes narrowed like a crescent moon, she held the ginger soup in the bowl in her hand to keep warm, her chin raised and pointed to the bowl next to her, and said kindly: "Your clothes are also wet, drink a bowl." Chill out. ”
"That smell, it's a little weird. ”
It tastes a little weird, but boil a pot and let her drink it?
Ganluo pursed her lips and took a big sip, she didn't want to catch a cold.
Zhou Jingrui took the towel in Ganluo's hand and wiped the rain on his shoulder, and did not take his eyes off her feet, "Your feet?"
"It's been dealt with, minor injury. Gan Luo smiled and gently moved his position to get out of the way, "The rain is light, go back, grandma can't find you, you have to worry." ”
"I'll see. ”
Gan Luo took a step back, gritted his teeth and endured the stinging pain from his ankle, holding the door frame behind his back with one hand, his expression relaxed: "It's really a small injury." ”
Halfway back to the heavy rain, the rain was heavy, the warning signs for repairing the road were blown away by the wind, the road was full of rain, she rode into the sunken mud pit, the steel bars piled up on the side of the road cut the ankle, fortunately the wound is not big, it is the pain of walking and pulling.
"Don't move!" Zhou Jingrui squatted down and looked at her ankle, the wound was not deep.
How can this tone be so familiar? Gan Luo squinted his eyes, remembering the last "bandaging" incident, and thought to himself that this is to repay the debt?!
"Wait a minute, what are you going to do? Stand still and don't move", Gan Luo saw the other party's movement and hurriedly stepped back.
