Chapter 85: The Ivory Tower (81)
After Meng Ting returned to the dormitory, she cried while lying on the bed. She was the only one in the dormitory at the moment, and the other three roommates had already gone to class. Meng Ting cried loudly alone in the dormitory, letting her tears flow uncontrollably. Meng Ting thought that she had just come out of a period of grief, but now she was in even greater grief. Meng Ting looked at the group photo of the four of them, reminiscing about the past. Unexpectedly, the journey to college was only half the distance, and a friend who had been with him for many years would leave forever.
Gao Wenxiang did not return to the dormitory that morning, nor did he go to look for He Meina, but went alone to a corner of the campus where no one smoked. Wang Lotian is a good friend he has made since he was a child, and now he suddenly has to face the pain of losing forever, and his heart feels like a knife. In the past, whenever Wang Letian encountered difficulties, he would choose to help, but this time he couldn't do anything.
After smoking a cigarette, a text message from He Meina appeared on Gao Wenxiang's mobile phone: Wenxiang, where have you been? Why didn't you come to class?
Gao Wenxiang didn't reply, he just wanted to calm himself down now. After one cigarette is smoked, the second cigarette is lit. One after another, for an hour, Gao Wenxiang smoked almost half a pack of cigarettes, and the ground was full of cigarette butts.
The saddest thing is Liu Jingjing, her relationship with Wang Letian is not only a friend who has been together for many years, but also has a constant love in it. Liu Jingjing didn't expect that she was walking on campus with Wang Letian a few days ago, but now, in a few hours, such a huge change has occurred.
In the afternoon, the families of the three deceased were notified by the school. Wang Letian's three roommates are all children of rich families, and when their parents heard about it, they hurried to the school, and endured the pain of losing their son, and were furious, demanding that Wang Letian must pay for his life. In particular, the father of the man with glasses also specially hired a lawyer, and no matter what, he had to see Wang Letian being corrected with his own eyes.
After Wang Letian turned himself in at the Public Security Bureau, he was quickly sent to the detention center. He looked at the bars and couldn't hold back his tears. He is now a murderer, and he cannot escape the punishment of the law, and he is willing. But what about the mother at home? If she knew that kind of sadness, it would be painful. While crying, Wang Letian thought that his mother had pinned all her hopes on him, hoping that he could find a good job after graduating from college and no longer have to endure the pain of being discriminated against. But now it's all over. When Wang Letian thought of the pain his mother would face after his death, his heart became even more uncomfortable.
Wang Letian cried and smashed the wall with his hand until blood flowed from his hands. Why is this so, why is fate so unfair to itself, why all the despair has happened to you.
That day, Wang Letian didn't eat a single bite in the detention center, and he had no expectations in his desperate heart, and he just wanted to end himself in peace. At the same time, Wang Letian also thought that there must be a wave in the school at this moment, and countless people will be cursing themselves. Looking at the blank walls around him, Wang Letian felt that the world was really cold, and a person like himself, who grew up in ridicule, had finally come to the end of his life.
After He Meina got out of class, she picked up her mobile phone and dialed Gao Wenxiang's number. At this moment, the school is still boiling, the police have not left, and even the air carries a terrifying smell.
After Gao Wenxiang saw He Meina's phone, he wanted to hang up, but now that it was time for class to end, He Meina didn't see him go to class, so she must be in a hurry and confused.
"Hey, Wen Xiang, where have you been? Why didn't you come to class? He Meina asked anxiously.
"Mina, come to the Botanical Garden now, I'm here."
"Why don't you come to class, why are you going to the botanical garden? Do you know that there was a murder in our school, I thought it was in class. . . ”
"Alright, come over now."
He Meina was full of doubts, Gao Wenxiang was fine last night, why was her voice full of sadness today?
He Meina didn't think any longer, and walked towards the school's botanical garden with doubts.
After arriving at the botanical garden, He Meina first saw cigarette butts in one place.
"Wen Xiang, what are you doing here? I didn't go to class, I came here to smoke. ”
Gao Wenxiang didn't have any reaction, but looked at He Meina quietly: "Meina, come here, sit next to me." ”
"What's wrong with you? Yesterday was fine. He Meina asked again.
Gao Wenxiang stood up and walked in front of He Meina: "Meina, do you know who did the murder in the school?" ”
"Who did it?" He Meina looked at Gao Wenxiang's sad expression, and at that moment, a wave of fear suddenly hit.
"It's Lotte's doing."
"What! What did Lotte do? No way? Really? He Meina had a surprised expression on her face.
Gao Wenxiang nodded: "Really, Lotte went to surrender early this morning." ”
"Why did Lotte kill people?"
"Because of some bastard." Gao Wenxiang scolded angrily.
"What do you say?"
"If it weren't for the ravages of those rich kids, how could Lotte commit such a thing!" Gao Wenxiang seemed to be crazy at the moment, and He Meina on the side was frightened.
He Meina hurriedly beckoned Gao Wenxiang to sit down: "Are you useful like this?" Do you think you can help Lotte by hiding here alone and smoking? ”
Gao Wenxiang burst into tears: "If I don't, what can I do?" I don't want to lose this friend, you know, we grew up together. ”
"Wen Xiang, I understand the relationship between you and Lotte. However, you have to understand that no one can help him if he is guilty of murder, and he will be sentenced to death wherever he goes. You can be sad, but can you not do this, and don't forget, you are running for the president of our college's student council in a week. ”
Gao Wenxiang smiled helplessly: "Mina, you are really interesting, my friends are like this, how can I still bother to run for the chairman!" ”
"Then what do you want!" He Meina shouted, "Continue to smoke here? You are a boy, can you cheer up in trouble! ”
Gao Wenxiang covered his mouth with his hands and continued to cry with tears in his eyes.
He Meina breathed a sigh of relief: "Wen Xiang, I know you are uncomfortable. But can you not do that? I'm really worried about seeing you like this. With all due respect, you just think about how wronged your friend is, but have you ever thought about the three people who were killed? What contradictions between people can't be solved, you have to get to the point of life and death. Also, those three people also have parents, and when their parents see their son killed, their hearts will be heartbroken. ”
Gao Wenxiang waved his hand: "Mina, I don't want to discuss this. ”
"So what's the discussion?" He Meina pointed to the cigarette butt on the ground, "You are very interesting, I told me not to smoke when I was in Zhejiang, but I didn't expect you to turn into a smoking gun with me on your back." ”
"Isn't it hard for me?"
"Do you still have cigarettes on you? Leave it to me if you have one. ”
Gao Wenxiang took out a cigarette case from his clothes, and there were only five cigarettes left in it. Gao Wenxiang didn't hand it over to He Meina, but threw it out hard.
Seeing Gao Wenxiang's performance, He Meina didn't say anything, so she had to temporarily suppress the anger in her heart.
Gao Wenxiang stood up: "Mina, there is no class this afternoon, you can walk with me." ”
He Meina nodded.
After walking less than two steps, Gao Wenxiang spoke: "Mina, I have never understood why so many unpredictable things have happened to the four of us since we walked out of the mountain? ”
"You ask me about this, and I don't know."
"Some time ago, Meng Ting was attacked by gossip in the school, and now Lotte has committed murder again, oh my God, I feel like I have a headache when I think of this."
"Wen Xiang, none of us can predict what will happen tomorrow. What can I do? The best way to do this is to be calm. ”
Gao Wenxiang suddenly thought of something at this time: "Mina, I want to ask you something. It's Meng Ting who broke up with Zong Wenbo before the summer vacation, you know? ”
He Meina sneered: "I know." But why do you suddenly ask this? ”
"Nothing."
He Meina suddenly stopped: "Wen Xiang, I know that you have been pretending to be Meng Ting in your heart, saying that you still don't admit it!" Are you complaining in your heart why I didn't tell you! ”
"What nonsense are you talking about! I just asked casually. ”
He Meina knew that Gao Wenxiang was now immersed in the pain of losing his friend, and it would be too much to quarrel with him at this time. However, the moment she felt that Gao Wenxiang was still paying attention to Meng Ting in her heart, the anger in He Meina's heart began to roll again.
"Wen Xiang, no matter what you think. What I want to say is that I have no obligation to keep an eye on Meng Ting at all times, besides, she doesn't break up, why should she let you know? Meng Ting, she won't tell you, why should I say it? ”
"Mina, don't get me wrong." Gao Wenxiang felt really tired in his heart, Wang Letian's sudden departure had made him very uncomfortable, and he really didn't want to explain the inextricable things.
Seeing Gao Wenxiang's impatient expression, He Meina didn't continue to say anything, so she had to accompany Gao Wenxiang to walk quietly.
