When a person is locked up in a dark dungeon and does not see the light of day for a long time, he forgets the time, the language, and even the fact that he is still a person.

Qiu Hongwei doesn't know how long he has been locked up here, he was locked in a long, long time ago, at first he also tried to struggle, tried to shout, but it was useless, no one paid attention to him, even if someone heard it, they would only treat him as a ghost.

After a long time, Qiu Hongwei didn't want to run away, he didn't know what was going on outside, he didn't know how long he had been locked up here, and the memories he still had in his mind were still from the year 00.

Despite the abundance of food, Qiu Hongwei felt utter hopeless.

It doesn't matter if you eat a whole box of instant noodles for a day or two, but what if you eat it for a long time? And the water he drank was always cold water from the tap pipe, and he hadn't even drunk a sip of hot water for so long.

Qiu Hongwei didn't think about dying, but when he thought that after death, his soul and consciousness would cease to exist, he was very afraid, he couldn't die, even if the instant noodles were unpalatable and the tap water was cold, he had to eat and drink hard, it was not interesting to live in the world, but he was afraid of death.

In the beginning of the period, he lived here quite comfortably, Qiu Hongwei always felt that she couldn't really be ruthless to leave herself here, after all, after all, she was her own daughter, how could she really throw herself here so ruthlessly?

However, the truth was beyond Qiu Hongwei's expectations, at first he didn't feel afraid, he just regarded this as a little joke between his daughter and himself, but later, day by day, I don't know how long it has passed, and still no one has come, Qiu Hongwei became anxious, he was very afraid, afraid that his daughter would really lock herself in this dungeon that did not see the light of day.

Soon, the anxiety in his heart turned to anger, and when he realized that his daughter had really done that, the anger and anger finally reached its peak in the slow waiting in the dark room, and he yelled, and he threw himself desperately, but there was no response from the outside.

Qiu Hongwei began to become desperate, his strength was decreasing day by day, his hair became longer and whiter, his skin looked frighteningly white due to the lack of sunlight all year round, in addition, his body also began to slowly degenerate, at first he would talk to himself, but later, he lay on the ground all day, most of the time he slept with his eyes closed, and occasionally slept irritable, so he got up and ate some instant noodles.

It's hard to imagine that he has maintained this kind of life for several years, in the past few years, he has met Wu Mei three times, and every time Wu Mei comes to see if he is dead, if he dies, the punishment will be over, if he is not dead, a new batch of food will be thrown in, and then it will be a long time of darkness.

When he saw Wu Mei again, Qiu Hongwei's heart was complicated, living alone in this moldy and dark dungeon for such a long time, his brain was already a little less sober, and he didn't think about things so quickly.

He had waited for a long, long day for this day, and finally, he saw the sun again, although it was a faint light, but for Qiu Hongwei, it was enough.

After being stunned for a long time, Qiu Hongwei finally reacted, he yelled desperately, he knew that if he didn't seize this opportunity, then the next time he saw her, he didn't know how long it would be.

No, not even next time, judging by his current condition, it is likely that he will not survive next time.

"Let me out, you let me out!" Qiu Hongwei shouted, he hadn't spoken for a long time, and when he opened his mouth suddenly, he was still a little uncomfortable.

Wu Mei stood outside the dungeon and quietly looked at the man inside.

Many, many years ago, like him, she had longed for freedom, but she didn't get the freedom she deserved, and it was just the freedom of normal life for other children.

When she was a child, Wu Mei hated this man, hated him for gambling all day long, hated him for gambling all the money at home, and used her only mother as gambling money to gamble.

She was scared, her childhood was spent in trembling, she was really afraid that one year, her father would gamble her too, anyway, she was never a daughter to him, as if she was just a stranger who had nothing to do with him.

If you don't change yourself, sooner or later you will be changed by this world, and this day has finally come.

Wu Mei hadn't seen her mother for a long, long time, and she wanted to go and see her, even if this would attract her father's violent beating, but she was used to it, it was like a routine for her, and it didn't matter anymore.

Every time he went out to gamble and gambled and lost, he would drink outside, and when he got drunk, he would come back and beat people.

He didn't dare to beat people outside, he only dared to beat people at home, he used to beat his mother, but then his mother left, and he only beat himself.

Wu Mei remembers that day very clearly, it was Christmas, and other people's children had gifts prepared by their parents, but she-

She prepared a gift for her mother, it was very cheap, it was a lollipop for five cents a piece, and she could whistle with a soft stick after eating it, Wu Mei liked that kind of lollipop very much, but she couldn't afford it, because she had no money, and the only time she tasted it was her good friend Wu Hua who invited her to eat.

Wu Hua, like her, is also a single-parent family, and they each have their own troubles, so they have a lot of voices, otherwise they would not be good friends.

In order to meet her mother at Christmas, Wu Mei made a lot of preparations, and her hard work finally got a response - she got a small manuscript fee.

Although she was taken away a lot by that man in the end, Wu Mei still left some money, she took the money, calculated what could be purchased in advance, and then waited with hope.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, this day finally came, the day she expected at that time, the day she hated later, finally came-

Wu Hua bought her favorite lollipops, as well as her mother's favorite twist flowers, and only one bravely set foot on the road to the factory after school - she knew that her mother was now working there.

She walked and walked, tired, looking at the lollipop and twist in her hand, she seemed to take a bite, but she couldn't help it, she told herself, her mother must be very hard, if she saw herself doing this, the frowning brow should be relaxed, right?

However, everything has changed.
