"It's really useless, a dead person can scare you into peeing your pants?" Lin Hailong smiled.

Zhang Yang stiffened, his shoulders rose high because of extreme fear, "What should I do? What now? I don't want to go to jail." ”

The momentum of the previous child king dissipated suddenly.

"We're not going to jail. Lin Hailong said calmly: "We are only twelve years old, and we will not be sentenced." Also, we don't have to bear any criminal responsibility, it's just that parents are responsible for losing a lot of money. ”

"Really? What is criminal responsibility?" Zhang Yang was too young to know anything about the law, and there was no such profound knowledge in the ideological and moral classes in school.

Lin Hailong explained: "Anyway, it means that you don't have to go to prison, at most you will go to a work-study school." ”

"What is a work-study school?"

"A kind of special education school, specially for juvenile offenders who are not qualified to go to prison, full-time, to live in the school, school rules are stricter than ordinary schools, I heard that there are a set of rules for getting up, folding quilts and eating, whether the classroom and dormitory are equipped with barbed wire, once you go in and want to escape, it is not so easy, you can't say go home when you go home, although it is militarized management, but it is certainly better than juvenile detention centers and prisons. ”

"Isn't that just going to jail! I don't want to go into that kind of place! And my family can't afford to lose that much money. Zhang Yang, who was able to endure the pain until the last moment in corporal punishment, was crying like a baby at the moment.

"It's noisy!" Lin Hailong stood up, grabbed Zhang Yang from the ground, made him stand up straight, and then said to everyone: "As long as no one finds out, we will be fine." No one saw that we brought her here, right?"

Shen Huan nodded, "Indeed, ......"

"Then we'll just leave her fine, just leave her like that. ”

"That's it...... Leave it on?" Shen Huan questioned, "What should I do if someone finds out?"

"Even if they found out, they wouldn't have come to arrest us, no one knew we did it. ”

Everyone's eyes looked left and right, hoping to find a better way out of their companions.

Qian Xiaojun said: "Lin Hailong, how did you know about work-study school?"

Lin Hailong did not speak.

"You said you didn't want to kill Zhou Dongqing, you lied, you went to the library to check the information, didn't you? Knowing that even if we kill someone at our age, we don't have to go to jail, you wanted to kill her from the beginning, right?" Qian Xiaojun glanced at the corpse.

Zhou Dongqing lay there in embarrassment, bruised all over her body, her legs were covered with dirty blood stained with mud and sand, and the wooden stick was still in her body, which was jointly made by Lin Hailong and Qian Xiaojun, and it was about thirty centimeters long, and now only the length of a fist was exposed.

Qian Xiaojun said: "This is the reason why she died, she wore out her intestines, and you killed her with me." Before you come to this vacant land, you are already ready to go to a work-study school, right? Don't lie and lie to us just because you are smarter than us and precocious than us, what plan you have in your belly, you should all be honest, we are friends, you can't deceive friends. ”

"Who's friends with you. Lin Hailong looked at each of them coldly, "I never wanted to be friends with you waste. Qian Xiaojun, are girls a little smarter than boys? ”

He smiled slightly, "I'm not afraid of the police arresting me, no matter what, I can be sure that I will never go to jail." Article 38 upholds the principle of giving priority to education and supplementing punishment with respect to juveniles who break the law and commit crimes; Article 39 states that juveniles under the age of 16 who are not subject to criminal punishment shall be ordered to discipline their guardians. ”

He stretched out his fingers, his expression was a little proud, as if he was giving a speech, "Article 42, juvenile criminal cases under the age of 16 are not tried in public. Article 44: Minors released after custody and re-education are not discriminated against when they return to school, advance to higher education, or find employment. You see, it's not scary at all, is it? So trust me, it's okay to just leave. Go home and have dinner in peace. ”

Lin Hailong took two steps outward, then turned around and said: "For the sake of you being willing to help me kill her, I will teach you a trick, in front of adults, try to pretend to be innocent, just like Zhang Yang and Shen Huan are the best, 'not intentional killing, not intentional', this kind of words must be repeated to them several times, maybe you don't even need to go to work-study school, just drop out of school." Be smart, you know?"

The children are gone.

Nangong Douling stayed alone next to the corpse, she wanted to close Zhou Dongqing's dead eyes, but her hand passed through her head like smoke.

The scenery is not in a hurry to change, and it stays in this moment.

Nangong Douling felt a chill around him, and turned his head to see that it was the ghost grandfather.

It's just that he is not wearing a Tang costume, but an ordinary gray coat and black trousers.

He squatted down and knelt beside the corpse, his eyes were very desolate, reminiscent of the desert and boundless despair. "Grandpa Ghost, why are you here?"

"Here are my memories. It was you who broke in. ”

"I broke into your memories?"

"That's right, the era you are in is twenty-two years ago, and you are so young, you should not have been born at this time. ”

The brand-new houses, the small sycamores, the old-fashioned desks and chairs, and the black-and-white game consoles were all things from more than 20 years ago, and she finally understood.

"You see, my daughter Holly's death. He looked at the corpse.

"You...... Your daughter, are you Zhou Luohui?" Nangong Douling was surprised, "You have aged so much all of a sudden, I can't recognize you at all." ”

"After the death of my daughter, I grieved excessively, and I grew old all of a sudden, and one day I lived was equal to ten years for others, and my hair gradually fell out, and my body was emaciated, and then I suffered from anorexia, I couldn't eat anything, my skin was dry and shriveled, and my wrinkles grew out, and I was only forty-three years old, but I looked like a sixty-year-old man. ”

"Do you ...... Didn't live to be sixty?"

"How could an unlucky person like me live so long, and soon after my daughter died, I also died. ”

"What happened next?"

"I showed up to bring you out of my memories. ”

"I don't want to go now, I don't want to go halfway until I know the whole truth. ”

He looked at her, "You want to know it all?"

"I want to know. ”

"Why?"

Her yin and yang eye ability can only tell how many years a ghost has been dead, but she can't directly know how the ghost died.

At this moment, her heart was full of pity and sorrow, "If I said that it was to satisfy my own curiosity, would you be angry? I want to know the fate of those children, and I want to know the reason for your death." ”
