Only then did Wang Qiao learn from Meng Hui about the situation of the people in Room 209: Bao Sheng had been sentenced to 12 years and had already served his sentence in the labor camp. Babyface was sentenced to a heavier sentence, fifteen years. Chen Qiang was implicated in the nest case and has not yet been sentenced. The boss of Tiezhou sentenced the old man to death in the first trial, and the number has been adjusted. The master was sentenced to ten years. Yang Wensheng was renumbered, and I don't know the details.

Wang Qiao wanted to know why Mu was lurking in the detention center, so he tried to make a point, but Mu was diverted by him. In the detention center, the wooden man can't make a fart with three sticks, and outside, the wooden man becomes a talking basket, but he speaks very principledly, with a lot of nonsense and little valuable information.

Meng Hui chatted for a long time, turned the topic around, and said, "Brother Man, you have been out for a few months, what are you busy with, are you doing business?" ”

Wang Qiao's intention to bring a message was completed, and he made up his mind not to contact the Chen family and the wooden people anymore, and said: "I messed around all day long, and I didn't do anything serious. ”

Meng Hui said: "You have to find something to do, don't get involved in the underworld, the underworld has no future, sooner or later you will go to prison, Yang Wensheng and Xiang Lao Coarse are all powerful figures, and they are not fart when they enter the detention center." He took out a business card from his bag and said, "This is my contact information, you can contact me if you have something." ”

In order to work, Meng Hui lurked in the dark for many years, and now that he finally came to the forefront, the pressure was suddenly reduced, and he printed some business cards and sent them to some close friends.

Wang Qiao put away his business card and wanted to leave. Li Molin hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Lao Chen is taken care of by you, we can't thank you enough, we must have dinner." ”

Wang Qiao said: "Thank you, I really have something, I have to go back to Jingzhou, there will be no bus when it is late." ”

Meng Hui said happily: "Brother Man, now that the 'Four Great Irons' are circulated, we have been in prison together, and this kind of relationship must have a fate for hundreds of years." After dinner, I will drive you back to Jingzhou. ”

"Brother Man, you really can't go." Li Molin sincerely wanted to invite Wang Qiao to dinner, and grabbed his arm. In desperation, Wang Qiao stayed.

When she put on her coat and left the house, Li Molin explained to her two roommates who came out of 209: "Chen Xiuya is in her third year of high school, and she is very nervous about studying, so she won't go out to eat. ”

Chen Xiuya didn't want to eat with the two fierce men, she stood at the door, waited until the three backs disappeared from sight, and closed the door with her hand. With a little more force, the door made a "bang" sound. The Chen family is an intellectual family, and they usually have a strict family education, and it is absolutely not allowed to close the door like this, Li Molin turned around and glared at the door fiercely.

Chen Xiuya was also startled by the sound of the door closing, and hurriedly ran to the window, and saw the three of them walking towards the door, so she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Since her father was imprisoned, Chen Xiuya's psychology has been greatly stimulated, as long as she has free time, she secretly reads Qiong Yao's books, and today borrowed a copy of "The Moon is Hazy and the Birds are Hazy" from the school booksstand, at this time there is no one at home, she puts the math book on the table, and then lies comfortably on the bed to read the novel.

After seeing the male protagonist Wei Pengfei in the book abandoned by his wife Xinxiang, Chen Xiuya's tears flowed down like water, and the tissues that wiped her tears were thrown to the ground. She originally just wanted to watch for a while and then go to study, but who knew that she would fall into the storyline of love and love, forgetting the time and forgetting to pay attention to the sound of the door.

Li Molin accompanied the two 209 roommates to dinner, and was quite happy at first to learn that her husband did not suffer much in the prison cell, but after walking into the family courtyard of the traffic department alone, the familiar scenery directly destroyed the mood, and she felt an inexplicable mania again. In front of people, she will pretend to be very gentle according to her previous habits, and always step on flowers and plants, kick cats and dogs behind people.

Upstairs, I saw that my daughter's window was still lit, and I suddenly felt extremely relieved, my daughter was smart and clever, obedient at home, helping the family with housework, serious homework, and excellent grades. When she sees her daughter studying seriously, Li Molin will feel that life is meaningful.

In order not to disturb her daughter's study, Li Molin entered the door lightly and walked into the living room silently like a cat.

Chen Xiuya was watching intently, not guarding against the book being taken away, she subconsciously said: "Give it back to me." ”

Li Molin saw the big characters of "The Moon is Hazy and the Bird is Hazy", and was stunned for a while, before she realized that this was Qiong Yao's book, and stuttered: "You, how can you read this kind of book?" ”

Chen Xiuya was frightened, her head went blank, and she said, "Everyone is watching." ”

Li Molin's anger surged upwards and said, "Everyone is watching? That's why you read this kind of book. I have worked hard to maintain this family, working day and night for your father and daughter, hoping that you can get into a good university and leave this hellish place. I didn't expect that when the college entrance examination was so stressful, you actually read extracurricular books. ”

Li Molin wiped her tears as she spoke, and suddenly, the fire accumulated in her chest burned, and she used all her strength to tear the novel in half, and said: "Since you don't want to study, then don't study, and tomorrow you will go outside to find a job cleaning the table and washing dishes, so as not to spend money at home to support it." ”

Chen Xiuya was so frightened when she saw that her mother was suddenly like an angry lion, and she sat on the bed, staring at the pile of papers under the bed.

Li Molin tore up the novel, threw it on the ground, and then stepped on it with her feet.

Chen Xiuya just cried silently, and when she cried, she fantasized about herself as the heroine Liu Lingshan, left her beloved, and silently paid attention to the reconciliation of a family of three in the distance, and she completely buried her beautiful love. Thinking of this, seeing her crazy mother, and then thinking of her dear father in the detention center, pain hit her like a sea. She didn't resist her mother, she just closed her eyes tightly and let the pain wander in her heart.

In adolescence, imaginary pain tends to move oneself, and unworldly young people often develop the illusion that they are suffering from unbearable suffering from outsiders. In fact, what they went through is something that many people have experienced.

After venting for a while, Li Molin came to her senses, and when she saw her daughter's appearance, remorse stabbed at the softest place on her body like a sharp knife. She hugged Chen Xiuya and muttered, "I'm sorry, my mother shouldn't treat you like this." Today, Meng Hui and Wang Qiao brought the news of your father, and I feel uncomfortable. ”

Chen Xiuya opened her tearful eyes and said, "Mom, I want to study hard and stop reading extracurricular books in the future." ”

Li Molin sighed and said: "Your father is the leader of the Department of Transportation, and when you get to the detention center, you have to be protected by Wang Qiao, a young baby. We also have to guard against wicked people like Wang Qiao who came out of the detention center, and if we can have less contact, we must not provoke them. ”

At this time, Wang Qiao sat in the co-pilot's seat, touched his ears, and said, "I don't know who is saying bad things about me, my ears are itchy." ”

Meng Hui said: "It is estimated that the brothers in the number are missing you." ”

Wang Qiao said: "I estimate that most of the 209 have been changed, even if someone remembers, they can only be beaten, not missing, but a curse." ”

Meng Hui asked: "The detention center is extremely short of materials, the weak eat the strong, and any action has a purpose. But I found out that when Chen Qiang first entered the number, you took good care of him and didn't ask for anything in return, what was the reason? ”

"My dad is a man who likes to read, and he often calls himself a scholarly family. Chen Qiang's temperament is very close to my dad, and they are both the type that is out of place and thinks highly of himself. This is the real reason why I helped him, I don't want to see these face-saving little intellectuals suffer. ”

Meng Hui said: "I see. After you left, Chen Qiang's status took a sharp turn for the worse, he was beaten twice, and he was almost driven to the side of the urinal. I said a few words and helped him. When I was about to come out, he begged me to come to my house and secretly wrote a small note for the family to take care of. Li Molin was quite suspicious, and she was really relieved when she saw the small note. ”

The lights of the trolley cut through the darkness and moved quickly on the road.

After some weighing, Wang Qiao still asked what was in his heart: "Officer Meng, with all due respect, when we were in the prison, the two of us had almost no interaction. After meeting me today, I feel that you are very good to me, and I want to know why. ”

Meng Hui said: "You are really honest enough to ask so directly." After you arrived at the detention center, I have been observing you, and when I saw you calling Chen Qiang to my side, I found that you have a good heart, in a closed environment, in a state of despair, and still want to help weaker people, you can be regarded as a kind person. Good Samaritans are rare these days, so I insist on sending you. ”

Wang Qiao didn't expect that his little sympathy in the prison would win respect, and said, "I didn't expect you to be a police officer at that time. ”

Meng Hui smiled: "If you guess it, my fate will be very miserable." ”

Wang Qiao felt that what he had just said was stupid, so he laughed and said, "This is the truth. He added: "After I dropped out of high school, I went to the rivers and lakes. In our previous circle, we didn't deal with the police, and we all solved things by ourselves, and it was difficult for people looking for the police to mix in the circle. ”

Meng Hui said: "I know that I have been in this circle with Yixi, and it is even darker than you. Are you willing to contact me as a police officer now? ”

Wang Qiao said: "At this time and that time, now I am completely out of the original circle. Moreover, my best classmates are also police officers. ”

The police car traveled all the way and came to Jingzhou in more than an hour. After entering the suburbs, Wang Qiao decided to tell Meng Hui the truth: "Officer Meng, you just asked me what I was doing, I told a lie, I am now in the repetition class of Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School, preparing to take the university entrance examination. ”

Meng Hui said in surprise: "I remember you once said that if you are a medical representative, and you haven't studied in high school, how can you be admitted to college?" ”

Wang Qiao said: "Do I talk about the past in the number?" How does Officer Meng remember? ”

Meng Hui said: "I used to mix the rivers and lakes, no matter what I did, I had to be up to twelve points, I analyzed every sentence you said in the number ten times in my heart, and everyone's details were almost the same, so I think you are a friend worth making." Repeating classes and taking the university entrance exam, it's difficult! ”

In 1994, the university admission rate was not high, and Jingzhou No. 1 Middle School only had a 30 percent admission rate every year, and Meng Hui did not think that Wang Qiao was doing a wise thing.

On the way from Shannan to Jingzhou, it was only an hour, and Meng Hui said more than three months in the 209 prison house, and when the car arrived at the east gate of the repeating class, Meng Hui smiled and said: "I am really a talking basket, I have become a dumb person who can't say anything over the years, and I have been suffocated." Now he has returned to his true form, but he still can't say a lot of words. ”

Wang Qiao said: "I can understand. ”

Meng Hui said: "Can you really understand? ”

Wang Qiao said seriously: "It's really possible." ”

Meng Hui said: "Thank you." ”
