Volume 8: The Silence of the Lambs (12)

Dai Linxu, the eldest disciple of the Dai family, one of the candidates for the future heir, at this time, He Village, who had nothing to do with him on the surface, wore a hat and sunglasses, and hurried away with a look of disdain, although he didn't know where he was going, but how did he look like there was a problem, Feng Rong and Lin Yingkong didn't need to say much, they directly separated themselves from each other for a distance, and followed them silently one after the other.

Dai Linxu seems to be quite familiar with this place, and the roads he walks are all intricate, and Lin Yingkong and Feng Rong are almost lost. After walking around for a while, Lin Yingkong finally saw a familiar marker, and then thought that this seemed to be the direction of going to He's house, so he gestured to Feng Rong, who pretended to be asking the price of fruits, and Feng Rong walked away knowingly, walked directly in front of Dai Linxu, and went in the direction of He's house.

Dai Linxu seemed to be a little anxious, he didn't notice the abnormality at all, and after turning around as a routine, he went straight to his destination, until he walked to a remote corner a hundred meters away from He's house, there was already a person waiting there, a little uneasy to spin in place, occasionally raised his head, the angle was very coincidental, Lin Yingkong glanced at his face at once, and was slightly shocked - because he didn't expect that Dai Linxu would actually come to He Shou.

Seeing that He Shou was already waiting there, Dai Linxu was cautious now, looked left and right before walking to him, He Shou saw him, his brows furrowed suddenly, the two of them first whispered a few words, and then seemed to have some dispute, He Shou's movements suddenly became violent, he said something to Dai Linxu with his hands and feet, and I don't know if it was because he was angry, he blushed and had a thick neck, this is a cowardly and inferior man, who was ridden on the head by his tigress's wife for half his life and never tried to resist, Lin Yingkong stayed in He's house all morning, and he had never seen him raise his head, I didn't expect to be so bold in front of Dai Linxu, Lin Yingkong was a little curious about what made He Shou so excited, but there was no concealment around the place they chose, Lin Yingkong didn't dare to get too close, so he couldn't hear clearly, so he could only move the angle, trying to see the facial expressions of the two people clearly.

Compared with He Shou's excitement, the expression on Dai Linxu's face was ugly, and he defended a few words with He Shou, reached out to put his arm around his shoulder, trying to comfort him, but He Shou didn't want to listen, suddenly slapped his hand away, and glared at him angrily, so Dai Linxu was also annoyed, said something to him, turned around and left angrily. Lin Yingkong naturally turned sideways and stood in the shadow of a pillar, the whole person's sense of existence immediately turned to zero, Dai Linxu left without noticing him at all, Lin Yingkong glanced back before following up, and saw He Shou leaning against the wall with a dejected face, as if he had no strength, he slowly slid down and closed his eyes, and a star of water was vaguely overflowing from the corner of his eye.

However, Dai Linxu didn't go to find the rest of the He family, and returned directly, Lin Yingkong followed him from a distance, and saw that he took a taxi directly outside He Village and left, and the earphones also came from the voice of He Shou coming home and talking to He Mu, and there was no mention of information related to Dai Linxu in the words, Lin Yingkong thought about it, and asked Zhu Mengtian to check Dai Linxu's whereabouts and footholds in the past two days in the group chat, and he returned to He Village to meet Feng Rong.

"Treat it as if you don't know, and then talk to them one by one when things are clarified. As soon as he saw Lin Yingkong, Feng Rong said, the people of the He family hid a lot of things, as if everyone had a secret that everyone couldn't see the light, and it was easy to distract the point when they asked one by one.

Lin Yingkong understood what he meant and nodded, but he still couldn't help but say, "Dai Linxu seems to be very familiar with He Shou." He Shuang and He Zhichen have both mentioned Dai Linxu, but what is revealed in their tones is obviously not as familiar as He Shou and Dai Linxu - no matter what kind of familiarity it is.

As a result, Feng Rong and they haven't sorted out the matter between Dai Linxu and He Shou, and there was a big movement in the headphones, one of their bugs was placed in the living room where the notes were made in the morning, and the other was placed in the corridor where several rooms of the people living in the back must pass, and now there is movement is the pair of headphones that Feng Rong wears that belong to the corridor behind, and after Feng Rong heard it, he gave one to Lin Yingkong, so that he could also listen to what happened. Because I am afraid that the sound is too noisy, the radio range of the eavesdropper I chose is not large, but the quality is very good, at first I just heard a faint person arguing, and then there was a crackling sound of objects falling to the ground, mixed with the angry roar of a man, it seemed that someone was fighting, causing a lot of things to be knocked down, Feng Rong and Lin Yingkong's first reaction was that He Fu was drunk again, and before they could implement this guess, a terrible scream almost burst their eardrums through the headphones, and after the sound of the door panel being knocked open, they heard He Zhichen shout in shock: "Tomozakura!"

“…… Brother!" The scream just now seemed to be He Zhiying's, and at this moment she seemed to be shaking her voice, and the six gods were ownerless, like a small animal calling for help.

He Zhichen seemed to be flustered for a while, and then immediately decided: "Give me the knife, you go out through the back door, clean up and come back, don't tell your mother, you don't know what to do!"

"No, brother......" He Zhiying wanted to say something, but was interrupted loudly by her eldest brother.

"Hurry up, obedient!"

“…… Brother!" He Zhiying screamed, but soon, her voice disappeared, followed by the exclamation of He Mu and the noise of the He family and the surrounding people being alarmed, and as soon as there were so many sounds, it was almost impossible to hear what the people over there were doing.

But what is obvious is that the He family has an accident again!

Lin Yingkong and Feng Rong glanced at each other, and their first reaction was this, Feng Rong took off the headphones and immediately said, "You go to He's house to have a look, I'll go find He Zhiying." ”

"Be careful, I'm afraid she'll have some kind of moth. Lin Yingkong didn't say much, he stopped after a word of advice, and the two of them separated tacitly.

When Lin Yingkong arrived at He's house, it was already a mess, more onlookers than this morning were piled up there, chattering, some were calling the police and some were calling 120 to call an ambulance, Lin Yingkong used a little trick to successfully squeeze into He's house, and as soon as he walked into the yard, he saw a few people with He Shou carrying out a man covered in blood and in a coma, Lin Yingkong fixed his eyes and saw that the bloody man was not the son of the He family, He Fu?!

This looks miserable enough, no wonder Mother He fell into the sky for twelve, and was nervously following them out, suddenly saw Lin Yingkong with sharp eyes, and didn't care to think about why he was still here, dragging the old body and vigorously rushed over and grabbed his sleeve, crying: "Officer Lin, hurry up and arrest that dead cub and put him in prison, he wants to kill my son!"

"Aunt He, calm down first, let's talk about this later, is it convenient to put He Fu down? I have learned some medical skills, I can help him stop the bleeding first, and the ambulance will come soon." "He has already notified the hospital related to the N City Spiritual Law Enforcement Department to send a car over.

Mother He was so frightened that she couldn't give up, and now she was also sick and rushed to the doctor, so she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay! Second brother, you quickly put down the boss!"

Suddenly seeing so much blood, He Shou and they were also stunned, and when they heard the sound, they hurriedly put the person down, Lin Yingkong took three steps and made two steps to walk over and squatted down to check He Fu's injuries, how could he really know medical skills, just to see what the situation was like for He Fu first, he first made sure that He Fu was not a person in the black and white impermanent name - no matter how it was, it was not easy to grab business with his own family, the king of Yama in the fifth hall was still the one he had to call uncle when he met- Then input a little spiritual power at several of his main acupoints to slow down the bleeding speed of He Fu's wound, Lin Yingkong's nose moved, and he smelled a strong smell of wine, well, after drinking, and then lifted the broken fabric at the wound, he only glanced at it, and sighed in his heart, secretly saying how much He Zhiying had to hate her Lao Tzu to be able to make such a heavy hand...... It's a pity that half a centimeter can kill this scumbag.

Lin Yingkong noticed that He Fu's palms were still scratched by glass, stained with wine, not like they were obtained when he fell to the ground, but more like he cut them when he took the wine bottle, could it be that he wanted to hit He Zhiying first, and He Zhiying fought back later? Lin Yingkong was a little annoyed that he didn't come in with a pinhole camera in advance, but he didn't expect He Fu to have an accident so soon, and on the surface, it didn't seem to have anything to do with the transparent man who killed Wei Lan.

"Officer Lin, how is my family boss?" asked He Mu anxiously.

"Fortunately, it didn't hurt critically, and it was fine to go to the hospital for a few stitches. Lin Yingkong said with relief to He Mu, who had been holding him.

The execution speed of the Spirit Law Enforcement Department is first-class, and after Lin Yingkong checked He Fu's injuries, the ambulance was sent to the door quickly, and a person in a white coat gave Lin Yingkong a gesture vaguely, indicating that he would follow up on the next thing, Lin Yingkong nodded and did not move again, He Mu and He Shou followed He Fu's stretcher, but He Fu's father, who was the head of the family, stayed, and seemed to plan to deal with the follow-up matters. Lin Yingkong swept around, such a big movement, the nearby residents heard it, and the people who didn't come out of the He family either had an accident or happened to be not at home, He Shuang and Shu Xiusang were nowhere to be seen, and the juniors in the family were almost not there, it was estimated that they went to class, so why are He Zhichen and He Zhiying still here, and He Zhiying is still in trouble with He Fu to this extent?

"Hmm...... This Officer Lin is right? Father He suddenly cleared his throat and called him out with some hesitation.

Lin Yingkong nodded, pretending not to know, "Uncle He, I originally thought that I would come here after asking some questions in the morning, but I didn't expect to have another accident at your house, can you tell me what is going on with this? Who did Aunt He say just now that wanted to kill He Fu?"

Father He was a little absent-minded, and of course he didn't notice any loopholes in his excuse for appearing here, and the old man's face showed a look of embarrassment, "This ...... This time it's just an accident, Officer Lin, you see, you just said that the boss is fine, can you just stop pursuing this matter?"

Lin Yingkong was slightly stunned, if he didn't guess wrong, according to what he heard on the eavesdropper, it should be He Zhiying who missed or deliberately stabbed He Fu, and then He Zhichen, as her brother, crashed into the scene of the crime, and helped her take the blame as soon as he gritted his teeth, Mother He didn't like Shu Xiusang in the first place, and even didn't like the pair of children she gave birth to, so she would directly say in front of Lin Yingkong that she wanted to arrest her excellent grandson to compensate for the scumbag eldest son, and said that she wanted him to go to prison, but I didn't expect that Father He was not an old fool, and the meaning in his words was that he was going to end this matter privately…… It's a pity that Father He rarely wants to defend Shu Xiusang's mother and son, but Lin Yingkong had to figure out what was going on, and said apologetically: "Uncle He, this thing has happened, and I can't act as invisible, so let's tell me about the specific situation, and let's analyze and solve it in detail, do you think this is okay?"

Father He was in a dilemma, Shu Xiusang suddenly strode in, carrying a few bags of vegetables and meat, his face turned white, and he ran to Father He as soon as he entered the door, "Dad, they said that Ah Fu had an accident, he, he ......"

Shu Xiusang's anxiety was beyond words, she was asking Father He for verification, Leng Buding saw Lin Yingkong's hands full of blood, and then looked at the blood that was dragging all the way, and sat on the ground with her feet soft, unable to speak with her mouth open, seeing that she was so excited that she was about to faint, Lin Yingkong hurriedly said to her: "He Fu is fine, the other person is already in the hospital, the wound has not been stabbed, just stay in the hospital for a few days." ”

Shu Xiusang relieved her breath at this time, and said with trembling lips that she was going to the hospital to see He Fu, but Father He stopped her, was silent for a moment, and said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, this is ...... You need to know. ”

"What?" Shu Xiusang looked at Father He inexplicably, as if he didn't understand why he didn't go to the hospital now and said other irrelevant things at home, Father He didn't explain, only motioned for the two to go with him, during which Shu Xiusang also glanced at Lin Yingkong in a little panic, Lin Yingkong made an expression of "I don't know", Shu Xiusang had to suppress the urge to go to the hospital to see He Fu, and followed his father-in-law to the house.

Walking all the way back, you can see the blood stains spreading all the way, He Fu is not injured, but He Zhiying's knife was very deep, almost giving his major artery a one-size-fits-all, this time just blood loss can kill half of He Fu's life, Shu Xiusang was terrified, and then she found that He Father stopped in front of the door of her and He Fu's room, and the blood stains also extended to the inside, but the door was locked with a lock from the outside, she seemed to have a premonition that the murderer who injured He Fu was inside, and her eyes widened a little uneasily, "Dad, this lock ......"

Father He continued to be silent and took out a key, unlocked it, then sighed and pushed the door open, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you can see for yourself." ”

Shu Xiusang followed his movements and looked in, and then his eyes froze, and his eyes were fixed in a moment of shock.

The door was pushed open, and the first thing that caught my eye was the mess everywhere, the tables and stools in the room were knocked down, more than a dozen wine bottles rolled to the ground, mottled blood stains mixed with a bunch of footprints messily stuck to the ground, but what was more striking was that on the only stool still standing in the center of the room, there was a tall and thin boy in a blue school uniform, his face and clothes were stained with blood, and his hair was deliberately messy. Numb, clutching a bloody fruit knife, his eyes staring blankly at the remains of the glass bottle on the ground, like a prisoner waiting to be sentenced.

Shu Xiusang is not a fool, such a scene is too obvious to show what happened just now, she walked in a little confused, stumbling and trying to pounce on her eldest son, but suddenly stopped two steps away from him, Shu Xiusang seemed to calm down now, her voice became clear and calm when she spoke, not at all like the weak and humble woman before: "Zhichen, what did you do?"

He Zhichen's hand holding the knife tightened again, and the back of his hand burst out with green tendons, but he still refused to let go, as if he was pinching the last weapon in the world to protect himself, he said softly: "My father told me to drop out of school, but I refused, just now he was drunk and wanted to beat me, so I stabbed him." ”

He said it so naturally, so fluently, as if he had been rehearsed in advance and repeated thousands of times in his heart, Shu Xiusang didn't know if she noticed it, but she just asked, "You want to kill your father?"

He Zhichen raised his head slowly, there was almost no expression on his face, as if his whole face was covered with cement, only the eyes that blinked slowly proved that his face was still moving, and the person was still alive, he finally looked at Shu Xiusang, and his eyes gradually overflowed with a bit of hatred, like bloodthirsty vines, densely entangled in his eyeballs, turning into entrenched bloodshots, he said: "Yes, I want to kill him, from childhood to adulthood, there is no moment that I don't think about." ”

The atmosphere was like falling into an ice cellar, and it froze suddenly, and at this moment, Shu Xiusang, who seemed to be calm, suddenly trembled, and her whole person trembled like an electric shock, and she suddenly "snapped" gave He Zhichen a slap, with so much force, the latter's face swollen suddenly, this slap was like a signal of a drop of water splashing into the hot oil pot, Shu Xiusang pounced on He Zhichen like crazy, tore his hair, pulled his collar, hit him, and wanted to slap him, without any scruples that he still held a knife in his hand, He Zhichen hurriedly threw away the knife that almost stabbed his mother, but he couldn't avoid Shu Xiusang, who suddenly burst out, fell to the ground in embarrassment and held his head to protect himself, Shu Xiusang broke down and cried while beating him, and his voice echoed sharply in the old room: "That's your own father! He Zhichen, what about your conscience! How dare you attack your own father, so much blood, he will die, He Zhichen, he is your own father, your conscience! How dare you ......?"

Lin Yingkong saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly went up to restrain Shu Xiusang, who burst into tears, glared at his biological son with eyes that were almost hateful, and He Zhichen, who was suddenly slapped by his biological mother, the mother who had protected him and He Zhiying for more than ten years, raised his head as if he was stunned, and just met her eyes again, and the sudden panic of encountering something, the grievance in his heart and the pleasure of seeing He Fu dying instantly erupted, and he roared almost sharply: "My conscience was killed by him!" When he beat you, when he beat me and Ji Ying, when he didn't care about our mother and son, did you ask him if he had a conscience? You asked, I didn't have a conscience anyway! I don't have a conscience, I don't have a father, I just want to kill him, kill him!"

Shu Xiusang's cry was suddenly blocked by his violent roar, she looked at He Zhichen with tears on her face, and her voice suddenly weakened, like a young beast lost in her way: "No, you can't...... If you kill him, how will I live?"

He Zhichen was stunned for a moment, he looked at this woman who had never been wronged and would only swallow it in her stomach, but just now because of a husband who beat her all day long and treated her badly, and beat her son like a shrew, looking at this graceful and skillful woman who had always seemed to be in the old era glaring at her own son with hatred in her eyes that had been soaked in the fragrance of books, and watched this woman say to her son that if she didn't have her husband, she wouldn't be able to live- When he was full of joy to get the help of Lin Yingkong, a stranger, and was planning the future of himself, her and his sister.

Who is she? He Zhichen asked himself, and he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know this woman.

"You ask me how you live?" He Zhichen said in an almost murmuring tone, when he fell to the ground, his glasses were crooked, his hair and clothes were full of messes, stained with blood, and he looked like a wandering orphan, "Then let me ask you, what about me and Zhiying? If I really kill him, don't you want us?"

Shu Xiusang seemed to finally realize what hurtful words she had just said to her son, but her face was sad, her eyes were desperate, and tears kissed the vicissitudes of her eyes like flowing water, and she repeated: "Zhichen, you can't do this, he is your own father......"

"He's not!" He Zhichen roared violently: "He's not my father, he's your husband, you don't want anything but you can't do without his husband! You have lived for him all your life, you love him, and you can tolerate him doing anything bad to you! But what about me and Zhiying, we are your sons, we are your daughters, we love you too, we want to save you, but we are not his children, he has never taken care of us in his life! He wanted to kill ...... just now Kill me! But you tell me that he is my own father, and I have no conscience to kill him, so I have to sit here and wait for him to kill me to have a conscience? Is it that if I don't stab him, but he stabs me, you won't stand here and say that he's not right?

Shu Xiusang seemed to be stunned, looked at him in a daze and didn't speak, and sat down on the ground after a while, covering his face and suppressing his voice and crying.

When He Zhichen saw her like this, all his anger disappeared, and he suddenly felt tired of it, and felt that it was no longer interesting to live like this—when he was seventeen years old.

"Arrest me, Officer Lin, I stabbed He Fu, I plead guilty," He Zhichen staggered to his feet, walked to Lin Yingkong and stretched out his hand, he hooked the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, trying to show a habitual sneer, but it didn't work, he gave up pursing his lips and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I don't think I need your part-time job and sponsorship." ”
