Chapter 15: Death Redemption
After the farewell ceremony, Zhou Xiuli came to Wu Rui's side, comforted him not to be too sad, and said that she couldn't hold back her tears, she put a gift box next to Liu Xueli, she said that this was originally a wedding gift for her, and now it can only be handed over to her on this inopportune occasion.
Relatives and friends left, unfortunately only he and her were left in the parting room, he still had a lot to say, he hated that he had been busy handling cases since returning to Youdu, and he didn't have time to spend more time with her, he hated him so much that he slapped his cheeks like crazy, snapping and snapping in the empty room.
But what's the use! He lost her, she couldn't come back, she couldn't smile at him anymore, she couldn't be coquettish to him anymore, he lost her forever. What else could he do now but cry and regret! He had never been so helpless, like the sorry sentence on his lips.
"Sad! The heart seems to be hollowed out, full of only her, no matter where she goes, no matter what she is doing, she always thinks about her uncontrollably, and she will unconsciously burst into tears, like a long nightmare... Endless. ”
A voice rang out suddenly, telling of tearful sadness.
At the moment when this voice sounded, the memory of the past was instantly awakened, it was his voice, it was him.
Wu Rui suddenly clenched his fists and turned his head, and the face that was both familiar and somewhat unfamiliar appeared in front of his eyes. It's him. It's Zhuang Yidong.
"I'm going to kill you." Wu Rui roared and got up and rushed towards him.
"Come on! I'm giving you this chance. Zhuang Yidong greeted him with a cruel smile.
Immediately the two scuffled together, although Wu Rui had also learned some basic fighting skills, but at this time he was already carried away by anger, he just wanted to knock him down and kill him.
He roared like a beast, punching and kicking out of order.
Zhuang Yidong had received the most systematic training in fighting techniques, and had already formed a fighting instinct, so Wu Rui was not his opponent at all, and he was soon beaten to the ground.
Zhuang Yidong gasped, looked at Wu Rui who fell to the ground condescendingly, and said with a sneer and disdain: "Is this all you have the ability to?" I really haven't grown at all. ”
"Why, why did you kill her, she didn't do anything wrong, it was my fault, I didn't complain if you killed me, why did you hurt her, why did you die not me but her..." Wu Rui struggled and cried in pain.
"Why? Oh, yes! Why, why is it not me who died, but her? I also want to know why, you tell me why. Ahh At the end, Zhuang Yidong suddenly roared.
These two men are suffering the same pain in their hearts at the moment, the pain of losing their lovers, no one is less than the other, and no one has to be more.
Pain and anger, sometimes it can make people fragile and lose strength, but sometimes it can also be turned into strength, Wu Rui, who was extremely painful and angry, suddenly broke free from Zhuang Yidong's shackles, clenched his fists and hit him in the face, and turned over sharply to the ground between his dodges, and the two were like two mad dogs, rolling and biting all over the ground.
Xu Dong, Qiu Ye and others, who participated in the farewell ceremony, saw that Wu Rui had not come out for a long time in the farewell room, for fear that he would not be able to think of doing something stupid, so they hurriedly went over to look for him, but found that the door of the farewell room was locked from the inside.
Faintly hearing the sound of fighting in the room, Xu Dong immediately took out the lily key to unlock it, the door lock was opened, but it still couldn't be pushed, guessing that it should have been inserted from the inside.
The door couldn't be opened, several people exchanged glances, and they were busy trying to find ways to act separately, the indoor fight continued, and Wu Rui was finally defeated by Zhuang Yidong in terms of physical fitness.
Zhuang Yidong sat on Wu Rui's body with a bloody face, and suddenly smiled: "You couldn't beat me when you were in college, and now you still can't beat me." ”
"It's my fault, you want to take revenge and kill me, why did you kill her, she is innocent, when did you become so cruel." Wu Rui looked at Zhuang Yidong and said bitterly.
"If it weren't for you, she wouldn't have died, as you said before, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, killing her is the most severe punishment for you, and you will bear this punishment for the rest of your life." As he spoke, Zhuang Yidong stood up.
He's talking about him, but isn't he talking about himself?
The punishment of the spirit is sometimes greater than the punishment of the flesh. Physical wounds heal easily, but mental wounds can sometimes be painful for a lifetime.
This punishment is undoubtedly the most painful. Zhuang Yidong is taking revenge on Wu Rui with the most painful punishment.
"Ah······h Wu Rui howled in pain.
Unfortunately, there are two gates in the farewell room, and there are no windows around them, and there is a sound of banging on both gates. Zhuang Yidong turned around and walked to the gate and picked up a bag from the ground.
Then he took out two pistols from his bag and walked back, he threw one gun in front of Wu Rui and said: "Pick up the gun on the ground, I'll give you a chance to take revenge, let's have a fair duel, I'll count three, let's shoot at the same time, life and death." ”
Wu Rui picked up the gun without thinking and stood up, pointing the muzzle of the gun at Zhuang Yidong, he thought that maybe this was the best way to end it.
Zhuang Yidong looked at Wu Rui and smiled and counted.
"Three..."
"Two..."
"One ······."
The sound of the door slamming was like a drumbeat, and the three counts were quickly counted, and a series of crisp gunshots echoed in the empty room, and Zhuang Yidong's hand shook and he fell down with a smile in his chest.
Wu Rui sensed that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly ran over to help him and said, "You... How so? ”
Wu Rui realized that Zhuang Yidong did not shoot at all.
"Thank you, I can finally be free." Blood flowed from Zhuang Yidong's chest, and he said intermittently.
"Why? Why do you want to, you don't keep your word. Wu Rui's face was mixed with tears and blood, and he choked up.
"I'd rather die at your hands than be judged by the world, right... Yes······ no. Before he finished speaking, Zhuang Yidong's head drooped and he swallowed his last breath.
Zhuang Yidong died, but Wu Rui felt even more pain, he knew that this pain would accompany him for the rest of his life.
It didn't take long for Qiu Ye and others to break into the door first, and when they saw this, they were stunned and immediately began to protect the scene, investigate and collect evidence, and prepare to record a confession after Wu Rui's mood calmed down.
Di Bai and other leaders of the city bureau, who came to attend the farewell ceremony, discussed and gave special permission to wait for Wu Rui to finish Liu Xueli's funeral, and then return to the team to assist in the investigation.
After dealing with Liu Xueli's funeral that day, Wu Rui returned to the police station with a heavy heart the next day to assist in the investigation.
An inspector in charge of the interrogation asked, "Did you know that Zhuang Yidong had no bullets in his gun at that time?" ”
"No bullets?" Wu Rui immediately understood that he had no intention of killing himself from the beginning, he just wanted to complete self-redemption with his own hands.
This is the plot he designed, just like he said: I would rather die at your hands than be judged by the world.
The inspector looked at Wu Rui's expression, knew what was going on, and said, "It seems that you didn't know in advance, Zhuang Yidong's pistol didn't have bullets at all." ”
"I really didn't know that." Wu Rui said truthfully.
The two inspectors asked some more questions, completed the questioning of Wu Rui, and sent Wu Rui to the upstairs room to rest, waiting for the decision after further review.
Immediately, after the inspector finishes sorting out the materials, it will be submitted to the office of the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the final review result will be decided after discussion at the meeting.
The incident has been completely solved so far, but for Zhao Zhongjie, director of the Municipal Bureau, Di Bai and others, the price of cracking the case is too heavy.
Wu Rui didn't know how the city bureau would punish him, whether he would sue, or something else, Wu Rui didn't care about this, he was like a walking dead at this time, the only difference was that he had more thoughts than them.
He was lying in the room, and the scenes of the past kept appearing in front of his eyes, including the bits and pieces of being with Liu Xueli, and the days of being on the OUHK campus with Zhuang Yidong, sometimes laughing when he thought about it, and sometimes crying bitterly when he thought about it.
The comrades of the inspection department found Wu Rui's abnormality and immediately reported it, and the superiors knew that the misfortune that happened to him, the tragic death of his fiancée, and the former friends with guns, these things rushed together, who could bear it!
At this time, what he needs most is care, and immediately let the members of the serious crime team visit him to solve him, hoping that he can get out of the haze as soon as possible.
Xu Dong, Qiu Ye, Da Yong, and Zhang Panpan took turns to persuade them, but it was useless, he still laughed and cried when he didn't eat or drink, and he didn't even sleep, and the whole person became more and more haggard, and if he continued like this, he was afraid that his life would be gone.
When the bureau learned of this situation, it stepped up its review of him and forcibly took him to the hospital for treatment.
When a person loses the will to live, what elixir in the world can save life! Wu Rui didn't seem to hear the psychiatrist's explanation at all, just looked ahead with empty eyes, and his thoughts were flowing in his memories.
Everyone who is familiar with him is anxious for him, and in only four days, Wu Rui has lost his appearance, and he can only maintain his more and more fragile life through infusion.
At this time, it is most appropriate to describe Wu Rui's current situation with mourning more than death.
The day after Liu Xueli's death, Chen Man learned what happened from his father Chen Jinyi, and immediately submitted a letter of resignation.
The moment she saw Wu Rui, tears couldn't stop flowing, she felt a desperate breath from Wu Rui's body, if it weren't for Wu Rui's parents, she wanted to reach out and touch his haggard face.
"Senior brother, I'm here, what's wrong with you?" Chen Man came to the bed, held his hand and choked.
No matter how she called, Wu Rui looked at the ceiling blankly, without any reaction, like a vegetative person.
