"The child that Hui Jing killed by mistake back then, his father was very well-connected, and he always wanted to sentence Hui Jing to death, but unfortunately he didn't succeed. Determined to avenge his son, he bribed the prison guards, made things difficult for Huijing in prison, and even beat him to death. ”

Xiao Hanyu said in detail what happened eight years ago, although this was something that he and Lin Manshu were reluctant to mention, but in order to let Xiao Mubai know Lin Manshu better, he still said it. Including the fact that he was expelled from the police academy.

"I thought that I could be convicted by finding out these things, but I didn't expect that those people would open all the joints and make court trials impossible. He even ordered all departments not to cooperate with the matter, even the police academy. Considering my relationship with Manshu, the school also talked to me and said that if I participated in this matter, I would be punished, and if it was serious, I would be expelled. ”

Xiao Mubai looked at Xiao Hanyu, he was like this now, it was obvious that he was involved in Lin Huijing's case.

"So you, even though you know you'll be expelled, still choose to help her. Why? Isn't it your dream to be a police officer?"

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Hanyu's face, no joy or sorrow, just a faint smile. He replied:

"Probably, when I was ten years old, I knew Man-sook and Hui-kyung. We were neighbors at the time, and we often went to her house to play, and every year my mother would be away from home for a month, so she fostered me at Manshu's house at that time. It's more accurate than friends, family. ”

"Man-sook is my younger sister who is about the same age as me, and Huijing is my younger brother who is many years younger than me. How can you stand idly by when your family is in trouble?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Hanyu breathed a long sigh of relief and continued: "What's more, my dream is justice. If justice can't be done, what's the point of me staying at the police academy?"

"It must be hard. Xiao Mubai asked.

"Compared to me, it's Man-sook who is hard. At that time, Manshu had not yet graduated, and the procuratorate refused to file a lawsuit, so she forcibly sued as a family member of the victim. No lawyer dared to take on this case, so she went into battle on her own. At that time, her demeanor in the courtroom, I don't know how dazzling it was. ”

A smug look appeared on Xiao Hanyu's face, he really felt that Lin Manshu's performance was very good at that time, standing in the courtroom, she was a star of everyone's attention, and she was the center of the world.

At that time, Manshu was in the second lawsuit in her life. The first scene was when he defended Hui Jing and got the minimum sentence. Coincidentally, those two lawsuits were fought here, perhaps this is also the reason why Manshu settled in this city after many years. ”

After telling the long and sad story, the two turned their eyes to Lin Manshu. After they spoke, a man came to Lin Manshu's side, and they were talking about something at the moment.

"You're Huijing's sister. The man looked at Lin Manshu and said.

When Lin Manshu turned his head to look at him, he seemed to be more convinced, and said happily: "That's right, it's you, Huijing used to mention you often." ”

"Are you ......," Lin Manshu asked.

"I'm Huijing's cellmate, my name is Wang Yang. The man introduced himself.

"Ah, I'm here to see Hui Jing. Lin Manshu said lukewarmly.

"I came to see Hui Jing, but I also had a slim hope, wondering if I could meet Lawyer Lin. Wang Yang said.

Lin Manshu looked at him and asked, "Why?"

"Because of this ......," Wang Yang said, taking out a letter from the pocket of his clothes and giving it to Lin Manshu.

Lin Manshu took it and asked, "What is this?"

"Seven years ago, ah, no, it's been eight years now. Eight years ago, when he was in prison, Huijing's every move was watched, so he couldn't reveal anything when he wrote letters. The slightest mistake will be exchanged for a violent beating. One day he quietly handed me the letter and said that in case something happened to him, let me give this to you. ”

Wang Yang also showed sadness when he talked about this, and after a pause, he continued: "Later, he really had an accident. Because we were Hui Jing's cellmates and could prove the fact that Hui Jing was beaten, we were strictly controlled, we were not allowed to see outsiders, and the letters were checked, and we were later transferred to prison, and the letter was never sent. ”

Lin Manshu held Hui Jing's letter, her hands trembling.

"I was released from prison not too long ago and saw on the news that you moved to the city. Thinking about Huijing's death day, you will definitely come. I'm sorry I didn't get the letter to you sooner. ”

After Wang Yang left, Lin Manshu was the only one standing in front of Lin Huijing's tomb, looking at the smiling young man on the tombstone, how sad her heart should be. The letter that returned to Lin Manshu's hands after eight years was too heavy for her, so heavy that the hand holding the letter was trembling, so heavy that Lin Manshu's legs were weak and she fell in front of the grave.

When I opened the letter, it was in familiar handwriting. Seeing the first sentence "Sister, I'm Huijing", Lin Manshu's tears couldn't stop falling and fell on the letterhead, like rain, drop after drop. Tears blurred the vision.

"Sister, you said it, it won't be long before I can get out of here, I have always believed in you, and I believe that I can get out soon. But I ...... Recently, I have become more and more aware that that day may not be possible. ”

When she saw this, Lin Manshu couldn't help the sadness in her heart and cried out loud. Yes, it's all her fault, because she said something like that to Hui Jing, and Hui Jing would also turn herself in. I always thought that I would be able to leave the prison soon, but I didn't expect that when I left, it would be the end of his life.

"Huijing, I'm sorry ......"

Xiao Mubai and Xiao Hanyu watched from a distance, and when they saw Lin Manshu falling to the ground, they realized that something was wrong and hurriedly ran over. After arriving, I saw Lin Manshu with tears on her face, and her cry also contained infinite sadness.

"Manshu, what's wrong with you?" asked Hanyu worriedly.

Lin Manshu looked at Hanyu with tears in her eyes and said, "Hanyu, Huijing...... It's me who I'm sorry for him, it's me who is wrong......"

Xiao Hanyu looked down and saw the letter in Lin Manshu's hand, which read: "In case, in case I can't leave alive." Sister, you must not be sad for too long, you must live well, even with my share, happy and happy to live. ”

When he saw this paragraph, Xiao Hanyu almost couldn't hold back the sadness in his heart. Huijing has always been a sensible child, and it is precisely because he is sensible that it is even more heart-wrenching.

Xiao Mubai looked at the crying Lin Manshu, and the painful and sad expression on her face made Xiao Mubai feel distressed. He wanted to go over and hug her, to wipe away her tears...... But he can't, his identity as a police officer, and the hurtful words he said that day, will probably stimulate Lin Manshu even more.

Because she was too sad, Lin Manshu cried non-stop. She used to cry, but she endured it silently and didn't make a sound. This time, she really couldn't help it. When she cried, her chest was so tight that she could barely breathe. She had to thump her chest with her hand to feel better.

But that sadness, as if it had taken root in my heart, could not be dispelled no matter what, but became more and more intense. Tears flowed freely down her face, her shoulders trembling with crying, and her hands clutched the letter tightly.

"Manshu, that's not your fault, ah, don't be like this, Huijing doesn't want to see you so sad. It's not your fault......" Yu Hanyu wanted to try to comfort Lin Manshu.

"Even then...... I don't even know how he got to the last leg of his life. Every day is abused and must be very bitter, painful, and terrifying...... But I don't even know that, I don't even know that. ”

Lin Manshu said while crying, her voice was choked, and many times she couldn't say a sentence completely. She looked at Xiao Hanyu and asked:

"I'm not a good sister, am I. I should have known that it would be like this, I shouldn't have persuaded him to turn himself in, I should have helped him escape, right...... Hanyu, I should help him escape...... right."

Seeing Lin Manshu, who has always been strong, calm and rational, become like this, Xiao Hanyu didn't know how to comfort her, he hugged Lin Manshu and tried to comfort her as much as possible.

"If you feel aggrieved and sad, just cry as much as you like, it will feel a lot better to cry. ”

In Lin Manshu's crying, Xiao Mubai turned his head to look at the photo on the tombstone. This was the first time he had seen Lin Huijing, and unlike Lin Manshu, the young man smiled warmly, like the sun in March.

Carefully calculated, Lin Huijing was not yet twenty years old when he died, and in the prime of his life, he left with bruises, how could his relatives not be heartbroken?

Because Lin Manshu's crying couldn't be stopped, her chest pain became even worse. After taking the medicine, Lin Manshu fell into a deep sleep and got much better. Xiao Mubai hugged Lin Manshu and gently put her on the bed. Now, he can only dare to stay by her side while she is asleep.

"You stay here with her for a while, I'll go out first." ”

Xiao Hanyu was creating an opportunity for the two of them to be alone, and he knew that Xiao Mubai must be worried about Lin Manshu.

"Thank you. ”

A thousand words turned into a word of thanks, not only for creating an opportunity for them to be alone, but also for him for telling him about Lin Manshu, and even more so for being by Lin Manshu's side all the time, so that she would not be too lonely.

Xiao Hanyu hooked his lips and smiled, accepted the thank you and turned to leave.

Xiao Mubai looked at the tears on Lin Manshu's face that had not completely dried, went to the bathroom that came with the bedroom, took down a clean towel, soaked it in warm water, and gently wiped away the tears on Lin Manshu's face.

Once, Xiao Mubai said to Lin Manshu: "You can't put anyone in your eyes, but I want to put you in my eyes." ”

Lin Manshu's answer was: "Don't let it go, it will hurt." ”

At that time, Xiao Mubai didn't understand the meaning of that sentence, and he didn't understand it until now.

Looking at Lin Manshu's quiet sleepy eyes, Xiao Mubai said: "Now, I finally understand the meaning of that sentence. Putting you in my eyes and looking at you crying, how distressed I should be. ”

"But I'm not going to give you up like that. It hurts to put you in my eyes, but what can I hold if I don't have you in my eyes? The time you stay in my eyes is my happiest time. ”
