Chapter 14: Despair and Encounter

Time always does not leave a chance for suspense, and one more day is the seventh day of my father's departure, according to the traditional custom, the family should organize a sacrifice for the deceased father again, but my mother's mental state has not improved, so I decided to "visit" my father with Ai Wenxue, and prepared some of my father's favorite fruits and red wine.

On the day of the planned trip to the cemetery, the dark clouds shrouded the outside in a gloomy manner, before going out to check the things to be brought with Ai Wenxue, just about to open the door there was a knock on the door, and Ai Wenxue turned around and put his hand on my shoulder as if he had expected who the knocker was, and said, "Liangmao, can you go into the room first?" Since they came ahead of time, I can't escape, so you wait for me, and we'll set off after taking care of things, huh? ”

"Who are they referring to?" I'm curious.

"Don't ask, be obedient, go to the room first." Ai Wen sent me back to her room and told me to close the door, while the knocking continued.

After I closed the door of the room in front of Ai Wenxue, he went to welcome the people from the outside in, but I wanted to know what kind of person could make Ai Wenxue so mysterious, so I opened the door a small crack, and then saw through the crack in the door that the people who came in were three uniformed policemen, and they each showed their relevant documents, "Mr. Ai Wenxue, is it?" You are involved in a criminal case and need your cooperation in the investigation, please come with us. ”

"Why did you come so early, I had already confessed to you when I called the police, didn't you promise to give me 20 days to deal with personal matters after I begged for everything? I also promised that I would take the initiative to go back and take responsibility after I finished doing all the things around me, and I also agreed to let you monitor my whereabouts at any time. Ai Wenxue was a little emotional in the face of the police.

"Please calm down, first of all, we are here at the behest of the victim's family, and as a criminal suspect, the police have the right to interrogate you."

I listened to the movement in the living room in the house, and the conversation between them confused me, in order to understand more clearly, I opened the door and walked out of the room, "Ai Wenxue, what else do you have that I don't know, how long do you want to hide from me?" If the police don't come looking for you, do you have to wait until the end of the period you said is over? ”

"Liangmao, I didn't mean to hide it from you, and I didn't want to say goodbye again, but some time ago you were not in good health, and you needed someone to take care of you, I wanted to wait for you to be in good health and tell you slowly, but then your father died, and then your mother was delirious and kicked you out of the house. I can enlighten you more when I am with you, and continue to wait for you to feel better, at least I won't make you feel stressed, but today I still let you know in advance. Ai Wenxue explained.

"In fact, on the first day of my hospitalization, when I heard the nurse say that I was sent to the hospital by a police car, I had a premonition that there must be something in trouble, and I wanted to ask you about this, after all, you stabbed Li Mingxuan with a knife and scratched Shang Xuan's face, I didn't see what was going on at the scene, how could their parents be willing to let you go. It's just that I've always been afraid to ask you, and I'll really hear bad news, and I don't want to ask you if you want to say it, so I can't blame you all now, since that's the case, don't take care of me anymore, just say it. "I know that what should come will always come, and some may come sooner or later, but it doesn't mean that I will run away from the past.

"That's right, you were indeed taken to the hospital by a police car on the day of the incident, and I took you to stop the car at first, but the way we looked...... Your wound has been exposed to the air for a long time and no one has helped you to deal with it carefully, when you have lost too much blood, you began to have a state of physical exhaustion and drowsiness, time is racing against time, I don't know if you have injured the artery, if you continue to delay, it will be inflamed and infected after a long delay, I am afraid it will also endanger your life, in order to make you conscious, I tried to keep talking to you, but I still let you fall asleep halfway, I was very afraid after finding that you didn't make a sound, and I couldn't stop the car, Helpless, I used my mobile phone to call the 110 police, in the phone I said that I injured someone with a knife, and there are innocent people in danger of life, hung up the phone not long after the police arrived at the scene, you are saved and I am relieved, because the police ingestion I know that I will not be able to escape, just like you said, after all, I hurt people with a knife, and the degree of injury is not light, their family can not spare me, it will not be long before I will be punished by the law, and I don't want you to bear too much alone, The police heard about your previous situation from me, and wanted to contact your parents for you, but I refused on the grounds that I didn't want them to worry, and I was sure that if you were awake at the time, you would have done the same, so in order to take care of you, I knelt down and begged them to be accommodating for some time, and the police also helped to coordinate it, I signed a letter of guarantee, and installed a positioning system in my mobile phone, so that I could have the opportunity to come back and take care of you. "Ai Wenxue told me all that happened in my coma after I came out of the bar that day.

"That'...... How are Shang Xuan and Li Mingxuan doing now, will you be sentenced? If sentenced...... How long will the sentence be? I insisted on not blinking my eyes, so that even if the tears blurred my vision, they would not fall quickly, but my voice was still a little choked.

Shang Xuan's face was disfigured, and Li Mingxuan ...... Dead, because the knife stabbed him in the main organ of the abdomen, if the knife is not pulled out and sent to the hospital in time, there may still be a chance of survival, but ...... So he didn't save him, and if he was sentenced, I killed someone, life imprisonment? Or even pay for his life? Ai Wenxue smiled bitterly, "It doesn't matter." ”

"Ai Wenxue, have you ever regretted it?" I asked.

"Regrets? I never knew what regret was before I met you, and I won't regret it after I like you, because in reality, no one can make me give everything except you, I don't ask you to fall in love with me, even if you have a little bit of my place in your heart, I'm satisfied. So, Liangmao, let me ask you, do you have a place for me in your heart at this time? Before I could answer, the cold handcuffs locked Ai Wenxue's hands, and he never shed tears until he was taken away by the police, nor did he look back at me.

Without Ai Wenxue's company, I went to my father's grave by myself, and did not speak to my father's black-and-white photos, but drank all the red wine I brought with me in front of the tombstone with tears.

Three days later, Ai Wenxue's case was heard in the Central People's Court, I attended the verdict as a witness for the defense and presented some evidence in Ai Wenxue's favor, which is the only thing I can do for him now, through the relevant information collected, Li Mingxuan and Shang Xuan were also alleged to have some excesses in this case, but because Ai Wenxue's impulse made them suffer, the court finally ruled that Ai Wenxue was sentenced to life imprisonment and deprived of political rights for life for intentionally wounding people causing one death and one injury.

When I came out of the courthouse, the rain that had been simmering for many days finally poured down on the world, but I did not open my umbrella and walked alone in the pouring rain, allowing the rain to drench my body.

Ai Wen was in prison, I went to visit, and the first few times I asked him how he was doing in it with a special phone through the glass? He always said it very well, so that I didn't have to worry about him; After a few times, my conversation with him became not so easy, and I learned from the prison guards who took care of them that in the cell where Ai Wenxue was, there was a person who was a loyal servant who had sold his life for Li Mingxuan's family, and he was an unscrupulous person, and Li Mingxuan's family treated him well, and in the process of being visited, he learned about the cause of Li Mingxuan's death, and learned that the murderer's name was Ai Wenxue and happened to be in the same room with him, so he began to torture Ai Wenxue in various ways every day, and broke the glass in the cell in a campaign, The falling glass ballast punctured the eardrum of Ai Wenxue's right ear, causing a decrease in hearing ability, although Ai Wenxue was later transferred to a different cell, but it could not make up for his physical trauma, and he was never seen talking to anyone again.

Then he disappeared from me, and when he heard that I was going to see him, he just asked the prison guard to bring me a note with only two words written crookedly: Don't pronounce it.

Later, I became depressed by myself.

And then ......

Growing up, the later I amused, the more I hated myself, the end of the memory, my consciousness returned to reality, and in the process of waking up, I found that my father, mother, and Ai Wenxue around me had no one who had lost a stable life because of me, and now all the pain I have is God's punishment for me, and I have suffered it myself. Really, some things can only be cruel when they have been experienced, the people who love me have gone away, but I am still wandering here, I can't get rid of it, what I have lost, there is no place for me to find it......

Falling into deep despair, I couldn't see the future, and after reminiscing, I completely made my choice clear, and when I opened my eyes and looked down, the bottom of this high-rise building was already surrounded by people watching the excitement, some of them were holding their mobile phones to take pictures, and I seemed to be able to faintly hear the voices of some people: "You are jumping, what are you rubbing?" Jump! There are even echoes: "That's it, if you don't jump, we'll leave!" I don't know when it began, human feelings have become indifferent, "the desire for profit, with the people" of the world makes me have no nostalgia for the world, in order not to let those who are not afraid of the excitement of the big thing have half disappointed, I jumped down, thinking that from today there will be no more Xiao Mao in this world.

When I jumped down, a phantom flashed, everything in front of me was frozen, only I was still falling at a normal speed, and at the moment when I was about to land, the phantom reappeared, making me stand on the ground intact as if I had a parachute, and so my third suicide attempt still ended in failure.

"How does it feel to jump off a building? Is it exciting? A hearty male voice lingered in my ears.

"Why did you save me? Who are you? "I looked around for him, and when nothing worked, I shouted loudly into the air.

"I'm behind you."
