Chapter 8: Upstairs Mentally Handicapped
The place where Lou Lan lives now is actually left by her mother, and it is not a wealthy area, but the most ordinary community. However, because there is a high school recently, most of the parents who accompany the exam come to rent a house, so the composition of the personnel is more complicated, and there are people from all over the world.
The only advantage of this community is that the infrastructure is relatively good, they are all detached, there is only one house on one floor, and the floors are connected by elevators and stairwells, and it is generally quiet.
At this time, Lou Lan said that he was standing at the door, or more precisely, he was standing at the top of the stairs.
So just as she was eating and teasing Amber by the way, she suddenly heard a crisp sound.
"Smack!"
A clear slap came down from upstairs, accompanied by an angry roar: "You waste, you can't do such a thing well, why are you raising you to do that?!" ”
"I ...... I didn't mean to, I did...... It was my brother who said to do this......" A man's voice sounded from the top of Lou Lan's head again, although the voice sounded quite good, but it was very weak.
Lou Lan subconsciously looked up and looked forward, and then saw a young man standing on the rest platform of the corridor with his face covered with grievances, and another middle-aged man, standing in front of him, should be his father.
The middle-aged man's face was full of anger at this time, and he was even more furious when he heard the young man's defense, and said, "You still dare to lie." After saying that, he raised his hand and slapped it again.
Lou Lan almost guessed what the situation was when she saw such a scene.
These two people are a family living upstairs from her, and they are still a relatively famous family in their community.
Those aunts are idle and have nothing to do, and they know this very well, and they can hear gossip about them when she goes downstairs to take out the garbage on weekdays.
It is said that the youngest son of this family is in his third year of high school this year, and his grades are very good, but his parents can't rest assured, so they rent a room to take care of him, and by the way, the eldest son who is in his twenties and still stays at home also brought over.
And the reason why this eldest son is still staying at home in his twenties is because he is an imbecile.
People in their twenties still have the same IQ as 6 or 7-year-old children, and in a nutshell, they don't have the ability to think about what happened 60 seconds ago.
Because of this, he was often beaten and scolded by his parents and bullied by his younger brother.
Even people like Lou Lan, who rarely go out, have seen it more than once.
But Lou Lan didn't plan to stop it, not to say that this was someone else's family matter, it was useless for her to say it, her own father was already bad enough, and it didn't seem to be much better than others.
It just so happened that the courier brother had already moved the last box over, Lou Lan lowered his head and stepped up to finish the last few bites of food, planning to go in and sort out his things and feed Amber by the way.
But before she could even enter the door, Amber in the room rushed straight at her, and then quickly got into her arms and shivered, looking terrified.
Lou Lan touched its brown hair, a little strange about its reaction, why was it so scared all of a sudden?
Then I heard an angry roar from the staircase, and the accompanying slapping echoed through the hallway, and Amber trembled again.
So she immediately understood the reason.
Amber is not a noble breed of cat, but Lou Lan picked it up on the side of the road, it is the most common raccoon cat, the scientific name is the Chinese pastoral cat.
Amber, who had just been picked up, had different injuries all over her body, large and small, including bruises from whiplashes and kicks. I think I have been abused before, so I am particularly afraid of this kind of slapping and shouting.
It's also strange that Lou Lan rarely lets it go out, so I don't know that it is still so afraid of violence.
The shouting from upstairs didn't stop at all, and Amber trembled for a moment with each sound.
Lou Lan touched Amber's soft yellow hair to soothe it, and after being silent for a while, she said politely to the courier brother who had just finished moving things and was about to leave: "Little brother, the quarrel between the family upstairs is so terrible, can you go up with me to have a look?" ”
The little brother glanced at the sturdy middle-aged man in the corridor, and then looked at Lou Lan's thin arms and legs, and estimated that the baby-faced little girl in front of him was not half as heavy as the middle-aged man, and judged his own strength, so he adhered to the young man's enthusiasm and pity for the jade, slapped his chest, and said arrogantly: "Okay, I'll go with you!" ”
Lou Lan hugged Amber, smiled gratefully at the courier brother, and walked up the stairs.
"This gentleman, I am the resident of your downstairs, can you please stop your current behavior, you have already disturbed the others." Lou Lan said politely to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man looked back at Lou Lan, and saw that she was wearing an ordinary T-shirt and ordinary jeans, and she was holding a mottled cat in her arms, so he said disdainfully, "I educate my own son, what does it matter to you, if there is a problem, you can find a property." ”
"This gentleman." Lou Lan still smiled and said very politely: "You have already disturbed me now, and it seems that domestic violence is also going to the police station to drink tea, do you want to try it?" ”
After speaking, Lou Lan took out her mobile phone and shook it again.
The middle-aged man suddenly became angry and said, "What are you?" "The right hand is raised to hit Lou Lan.
If it is solidified, Lou Lan's weak and unwinded little body can definitely be fanned against the wall. But at this time, the heroic courier brother stood up and grabbed the middle-aged man's arm, stopping his next move.
"Uncle, you are so old and you still lose your temper at a little girl, you are really unqualified." The courier brother sneered very arrogantly.
The middle-aged man saw that the courier brother was sturdy and compared to his big belly, so he could only withdraw his hand stupidly, and pointed at Lou Lan unwillingly and said: "You give me care!" Then he didn't care about the eldest son who kept covering his face and shrunk next to him, turned around and left.
Lou Lan touched Amber's ear, sincerely thanked the courier brother, and added a little money to him.
"Hands, hands." The courier brother happily collected the money, and then left by elevator.
In the blink of an eye, only Lou Lan and the young man who was beaten were left at the "staircase" that was still very lively just now.
Lou Lan thought that she didn't know this person before, and she wouldn't have the slightest intersection in the future, so she didn't plan to pay attention to this person, and she was going home with Amber in her arms.
But at this time, the young man who had been silent suddenly spoke: "Sister...... I...... It's called Land Realm. ”
