It was already dawn, and a thin layer of mist wrapped around the dark gray mud walls of the prison, with the occasional deep dent followed by a few drops of water condensed by the mist, and little by little the water dripped across the walls that had been soaked by the years, and finally fell in vain.

The foreign car was parked outside, and there were a few water marks on the glass.

Chen Shu was held in a prison in the west of the city, awaiting a verdict in the civil legal process. The prison environment was terrible, cold and damp, with the smell of rust and dead rats that had fallen out of disrepair for many years.

Hua listened down the stairs, greeted a few prison guards, and walked inside, the more she walked, the more she felt depressed, and the damp and musty smell made her feel sick and sick again.

Footsteps stopped at the innermost room, and several of the guards saluted her in unison, "Lady Jane." ”

Hua Ting instructed one of them to open the lock, and some dust was raised in the sound of rustling, Hua Ting coughed lightly with his fist against his lips, bowed his neck and walked into the prison, and when he looked up, he saw Chen Shu in the corner.

Chen Shu was wearing a dusty robe, sitting in the corner with his knees bent at will, his arms on his knees, his expression seemed to be as relaxed as admiring flowers and amusing birds, and he greeted her with a smile: "Why is Mrs. Jane here?" ”

Hua Ting walked up to him and squatted down, and he was a little unaccustomed to his casual appearance in prison, "You are going to die, can you still be so relaxed?" ”

Chen Shu looked at her with his eyes slightly open, his eyes were scorching, "I've already lost you," he smiled lowly, reached out and grabbed her hand, squeezing it inch by inch ambiguously, "What's the point of dying?" ”

The people around were embarrassed to silence, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

Someone brought a chair for her, so she withdrew her hand from Chen Shu's palm, and sat on the chair in response to someone behind her, pretending to be a watchman, lifting Erlang's legs, resting his arms on his head, and his tone was relaxed and casual: "What a bold Chen gang leader, he actually dared to murder Mr. Fujita, the head of the Japanese special high school." ”

His throat moved slightly, and before he could speak, Hua Ting pressed his throat and added, "Do you know what crime you have committed?" ”

"Capital offense." Chen Shu laughed at himself.

Hua Ting blinked, glanced at the police officer beside him, and his right hand casually turned the silver ring on his ring finger twice, and his eyes were not shocked, "So you know, so what are you doing?" ”

Chen Shu squinted at the small window above the prison's damp walls, which was sealed with wrist-thick iron bars, which could only spill in a little bit of sunlight, mottled and stamped on the ground, and could clearly see the fine dust suspended in the air.

"Madame Jane, do you think I'll regret it?"

Hua Ting's heart was stunned, and the urgent sourness was about to burst out of her eyes, why did she become more and more crying?

Chen Shu's answer made a prison guard behind Hua Ting extremely dissatisfied, and he immediately rampantly picked up the electric baton in his hand, "Gang Master Chen is so bold!" How dare you insult Mr. Fujita like this! ”

Hua Ting stretched out his hand to stop it, and his eyes swept the electric rod in his hand lightly.

Chen Shu must have endured a lot of hardships in this prison.

"Mrs. Jane, look at this Chen gang leader, he dares to be so rampant when he is dying." The prison guards were apparently bribed by the Japanese.

Hua Ting'er is dressed as a noblewoman today, her original charming long hair is pulled up reservedly, and she has a precious gauze on her arm, and her figure under the Shu brocade cheongsam is still swaying.

Seeing Chen Shu's situation, she snorted slightly, but she still pretended to be unfazed, and said, "Let him be hard-mouthed for a while, anyway, he will be on the execution ground in a short time." ”

The prison guard sneered, obediently took the electric rod and stood behind Hua Ting.

"Gang Master Chen, I'll give you a message for Mr. Jane," Hua Tingting got up, walked slowly in front of him, and squatted down again, "You deserve it!" "The smile is sweet.

Chen Shu took her hand with a smile in his eyes, "I'm willing." ”

Such a haggard and wolf-like person made Hua Ting's heart feel like a cat scratching his paws, his flesh and blood were sticky, and he shrank up quickly in pain.

"Jane has a way to save you." She said very quietly, for fear that the prison guards behind her would be suspicious, so she passed through with a string of cold laughter.

Chen Shu was stunned, and let go of his grip on her.

"No, I don't." He said.

Hua Ting narrowed her eyes, "Gang Leader Chen, I came to see you kindly, you don't want to toast or eat and drink." ”

Looking at her teary eyes, Chen Shu suddenly said softly: "I really don't regret it, death is already commonplace for me." ”

Hua Ting's throat choked, lowered her eyes slightly, squeezed his palm, and stopped speaking.

The subordinates came in and respectfully invited her, Hua Ting shook Chen Shu's hand again, Fang Rong smiled, pulled the shawl that slipped off his shoulder, and walked outside. She swept over the few prison guards guarding outside, ordered someone to stuff a few pieces of silver, and said that Mr. Jian instructed that she should take more care of the dragon gang leader before leaving in a graceful manner.

Chen Shu looked at the delicate flowers on her cheongsam, and the faint smell of perfume on her nose, he hugged his arms tightly, and turned his head to look at the pitiful mottled but dazzling sunlight.

*****

The milky white curtain reflects the shadows of the trees, and the tassels at the end are swaying in layers under the gentle blowing of the evening breeze. The moonlight was cold, the bed curtain was also cold, and the dim halo of light was sprinkled on half of Hua Ting's face, her brows frowned slightly, her eyes were not firmly closed, her eyelashes trembled lightly twice, and she opened them again, looking at the glass lamp hanging above the bedroom to wake up.

She sat up with the quilt in her arms, brushed the strands of hair that hung down her face behind her forehead, listened carefully to the sound of the clock, and then gathered her dressing gown, got out of bed, grabbed her slippers, and walked to the window.

She looked at the small courtyard on the first floor, and suddenly remembered the first encounter with Chen Shu at the Café Bremen, his eyes were scorching, and his crooked eyes looked into her sight, and her mood at that time, like a cup of slightly sweet coffee that had just been served, had already been slightly turbulent without stirring the rod.

That was also the first time she saw Jian Yi.

"Can't sleep?" At some point, Jane had already sneaked up behind her.

Hua Ting turned around in surprise, "You can walk yourself?" ”

"Please," Jane also reached out and scratched the flesh of her cheek, "I'm not crippled, how long has it been." ”

"But you're still in a wheelchair in the afternoon."

"In order for you to spend more time with me, I'd rather be in a wheelchair for the rest of my life." I don't shy away from the word auspicious when I joke, and I still can't change my naughty habits.

Hua Ting thought it was funny, "If you want to curse yourself like this, I can't help it." ”

Jian Yi shook one of her shoulder bones, "You're not cold?" ”

"What weather ......"

"Still thinking about that kid in prison?"

The pendulum struck the bell at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and the cold outside drilled into it through the cracks in the window, it was just over September, and there was an illusion of autumn. ”

"Hmm." Jane also put one of her blazers on her shoulder, "How about you do it then?" ”

"By me?"

*****

When Jian Yi's health was almost better, he went to Chengxi Prison.

Chen Shu was eating, and didn't seem surprised by his arrival, raised his eyebrows, and slowly sandwiched a chopstick of green vegetables, his eyebrows and eyes curved: "Mr. Jian is free to come and see me today?" ”

"Good appetite." Jane also smiled.

Chen Shu's chopsticks made sporadic noises at the mouth of the bowl, and he raised his eyes, still smiling.

Jian Yi raised his eyebrows lightly, and smiled indifferently, "Eat more, I will send you to the West Heaven the day after tomorrow." ”

Chen Shu drank the last bite of vegetable soup on the plate, wiped the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, and his pupils reflected Jian Yi's idle face.

His eyes were faintly dark, his lips were dry, and they had faded to blood, and his whole face was almost transparent, as if he had not recovered from the poison of that day.

Chen Shu put down the dishes and chopsticks, squinted at the iron window with sporadic light, and said to him in a calm tone as much as possible: "If I have anything on my mind, it is ......" He sighed, "Treat her well." ”

For the first time in a long time, he had taken off his weightless disguise in front of him, and spoke to him proudly and bluntly: "As long as I am alive, I may go and snatch her back at any time." ”

"Grab it back?" Jian Yi touched the wet prison wall, and for a moment felt that his words were extremely ridiculous, "Gang Leader Chen used the wrong word, right?" How can it be said that it is snatched back? She doesn't belong to you in the first place. ”

"Really?" Chen Shu met his gaze and stood up, "If it weren't for Mr. Cai's business, do you think she would marry you?" ”

The sunlight came in from behind Chen Shu, and his expression couldn't be seen clearly against the light, but Jian Yi seemed to clearly see his next mouth shape: "Impossible!" ”

The four words made Jian Yi's heart feel like a drizzling rain, wet, heavy, and gently pulling.

"Gang Leader Chen, do you know how sad the word "if" is? ”

Chen Shu looked him in the eye and chuckled, "Then can Mr. Jian be able to answer this "if"?" ”

Jane also walked to a stop less than an inch away from him, her eyes burning and sad, "She is destined to be Mrs. Jane." ”

Chen Shu sneered and stopped talking.

Jian Yi didn't bother to talk nonsense with him anymore, he hung his head and stepped out of the cell, "You just wait for the execution ground the day after tomorrow." (To be continued.) )
