◎ Chapter 5 Ice and Snow Rose

Police found Leilei's car in a parking lot near the school, and although the car had been washed, the blood stains on the chassis of the vehicle matched the blood stains on the head of the snowman on the body. After a large number of interviews and investigations, according to an eyewitness, on the evening of January 18, there was a car accident near the parking lot, a kneeling begging female student was hit and killed by a car, and after dragging forward for several hundred meters, she encountered a bump, and the chassis of the vehicle pulled her head off, and the witness was afraid of causing trouble for herself, so she did not report the case.

At this point, the special case team preliminarily determined that the head of the snowman was a female beggar, and the male beggar kneeling and begging at the school gate was suspected of major homicide!

Snowfall is widespread in the three northeastern provinces. It is snowing in Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning. Snow falls on the frozen river and on the dark plains; Snow falls on the trees on the top of Changbai Mountain in the park where there are no pedestrians. The snow fluttered in the squares of the city, gently in every corner of the forests of the Great Khing'an Mountains, on the tombstones, on the birch forests of the villages, on the tips of the fences of the villagers, on the withered weeds, on the shoulders of two beggars.

Let's look at them, two beggars kneeling down the street like students.

Who would pay attention to two student beggars?

China is not only Beijing**, Wangfujing, Shanghai Lujiazui, not only five-star hotels, not only high-end white-collar office buildings, but more poor rural areas, those that no one knows about the desertion and fiasco, the decay of the door, the embarrassment of the four walls. The ugliness of society lies in the fact that it has never been confronted – it is precisely society that has caused it!

In a town in Shanxi, the cotton is black, and the farmers are also black after two hours of work in the cotton fields. In the crowd digging coal in the nearby mountains, the peasant woman delivering food could not tell which was her father and which was her son.

In an industrial park in Inner Mongolia, residents dry their quilts all orange-red, thanks to hundreds of chimneys around it. The sunny day there has nothing to do with the sun, and the sunny day means that the industrial park no longer emits toxic gases.

Both student beggars have green hands and come from a polluted, impoverished mountain village.

The whole village weaves baskets at home, and one person can weave 20 baskets a day and earn 20 yuan. An old mother has been weaving baskets for 18 years in order to provide for her children's schooling, and the wicker color on her hands will never be cleaned, and the cracks on her hands will never heal.

They were neighbors, separated by a low wall.

She called him Brother Mud Baby, and he called her sister.

The two of them have many brothers and sisters, and their lives are stressful, so they have not finished primary school, and when they are weaving baskets at home, the biggest dream of the young people in the village is to go to the city to work.

That year, they saw a real train for the first time.

That year, they went to the south and saw the bustling city for the first time.

A boy and a girl, wearing shoes made of tires, left the goat, the basket, the village, and the home, and embarked on a wandering road. How lonely and difficult the road would have been without you. We don't know how the two children went from working to begging, but maybe there is no difference between working and begging.

They've never seen real snow before!

The younger sister said, "Brother Mud Baby, I want to see the snow." ”

Brother Niwa: "Okay, I'll take you to the north!" ”

They went from city to city, from the south to the north of China. The people of the city are busy and hurried, and who will notice the two young men kneeling on the side of the road? They were like weeds, no one cared about, no one cared, and occasionally someone looked at them suspiciously, and occasionally someone threw a coin or two.

In the shade of a tree in a certain county town, there were two students standing, and an old lady who was buying vegetables overheard the conversation between the two students.

A female student said to another male student, "Shall I go and kneel at that intersection for a while?" ”

The male student said, "Don't go, I've been kneeling there all morning, and I don't get much money." ”

The female student said, "I'm so tired, my back hurts, it's more tiring than basketry, but I have more money." ”

The male student said, "Sister, when you kneel out on your knees, you won't feel tired." ”

At first, the two children had no experience in begging, but gradually they found a way to do it. They used to go to the store to buy sportswear and pretend to be school uniforms, and they also forged some certificates, and later, they were smart enough to think of going directly to the school to buy school uniforms, and college students regarded school uniforms as garbage and generally sold them for money. The two student beggars also asked the university students for English lessons, which they then practiced on the concrete floor.

The author of this article once fell into a long thought in front of a student beggar.

The beggar knelt on the concrete floor, wearing a real school uniform, a dress under his knees, and a school bag on his back.

The student beggar wrote a passage on the ground in both English and Chinese:

Dad has been sick for more than ten years, this year a life is back to the sky, so far owed tens of thousands of yuan, mother she really has no conscience, away from home to marry for six years, my sister and I are really hard, no money to continue to study, can only beg for food in this poor, everyone says that Coptis is bitter, I am more bitter than Coptis chinensis, passers-by please slow down, Wangjun Road to see life compassion, three yuan and five yuan for love, no matter how much I am grateful, I wish you peace in your life!

The long more than 30 lines of imitation Song style chalk characters are neatly written, and the English translation next to it is accurate and in place, and passers-by all believe that this is a real student who has become a beggar, and they have donated generously.

Beggars are a profession that they don't want to work despite having hands and feet, for them begging is work. Although this kind of work is deceptive, what is their little deception in this age of lies?

It's hard for us to imagine that a society that never gives alms, a city where beggars are extinct, is really what we want?

Is our compassion and compassion disappearing little by little?

Two beggars who pretended to be students, who had not graduated from elementary school, did they have a longing and yearning for university life in their hearts?

Brother Niwa knelt in the south of the city, and the younger sister knelt in the north of the city.

They also sometimes kneel together, which is equivalent to the fate of a boy plus the fate of a girl. Ants crawl on them, sparrows fly over their heads, they go from somewhere in the world to somewhere, they go through thousands of mountains and rivers, when did they gradually enter each other's hearts?

Sparrows always smell of lightning, and ants have the color of tree roots.

The beauty and thrilling of love is indescribable, and they can hear the echoes of each other's hearts at every moment.

When the biggest snowstorm hit the three northeastern provinces in 56 years, two student beggars kneeling on the side of the road saw real snow for the first time in their lives. When kneeling, they should have lowered their heads, and the moment the snowflakes fell, the two student beggars involuntarily raised their heads, oh, pure snowflakes, just like the love of two hard-working children. He knelt beside her, and the two of them knelt together, it was very much like some kind of ritual, no one spoke, no one noticed them, only beautiful snowflakes fell silently.

That day, when the snow was falling, he and her knelt together, like two snowmen. A middle-aged man passing by saw the girl drawing a heart pattern over and over again with her fingers on the snow. The motif may evoke distant memories of a stranger passer-by, or perhaps out of compassion or emotion, the passer-by who has never given charity walks past them, then walks back and places a fifty-dollar bill on the ground.

The two students kowtowed in thanks, and when the passers-by left, there were few pedestrians on the street, and their hands quietly clasped together, not noticing that it was a counterfeit bill.

This winter, with a lot of snow and traffic jams, they hiked along a frozen river to another city. The river bank was two very steep slopes, he went up first, squatted on them and stretched out his hand to her, the boy's face with a pure smile, like the sunshine after the snow, like the spring breeze after the ice and snow melted, the warmth passed from one hand to the other, and finally reached the heart. Their first love, the first and last. Before and since, no one reached out to her in any difficulty, and in this world, no one can be like him, no one can replace him.

An ice fell from the treetops, and they heard the sound of crystals falling to the ground in their hearts, and they had a place of belonging for a lifetime.

At that moment, the world was icy and snowy, and the hearts of the two people were full of birds and flowers.

The flowing water has been frozen, and this is a river made by Hanyu.

Beneath the frozen surface of the river, the remnants of the old colors were intact and began to decay little by little.

A layer of snow fell on the crystal clear surface of the river for a thousand miles, and under the ice there were pear blossoms falling in spring, swimming fish, morning glories falling in summer, loaches, cornflowers falling in autumn, and shells. The plum blossoms fell to the ground and blew away with the snow, and the drifting bottle no longer drifted, half of its body embedded in the ice.

All the flowers have bloomed, and all the flowers in the world combined are not as good as her first smile!

Every time they go to a city, they go to the largest school in the city and buy two school uniforms.

When buying school uniforms in the school, my sister pointed to the newly built teacher's apartment and said: It's really beautiful, like a big hotel, and only rich people can live in it.

"There are thermometers in the hotel to let people know the temperature in the house. ”

My sister said: "Our feet are thermometers, so cold that we don't feel it, and we know how cold it is." ”

"When we got married, it would be nice if we could live in a house like this. ”

My sister said: "Let's go back to the village to build a house, such buildings are lived in by rich people, and the houses are broken, as long as there is you, they will not be broken." ”

Brother Niwa said: "I can't afford it, and I can't afford to live it, so let's look at the head office." ”

For several days, he knelt at the gate of the school, there were more than 10,000 students in the school, and no one could tell whether he was a real student or not, because he was wearing the uniform of the school, and many kind-hearted students who did not know the truth would give change.

She knelt under a bridge near the parking lot.

The two people are not together, but the snowflakes cover the two people at the same time, and the snowflakes make the two people gray.

They knelt on the ground, their love from the depths of the earth, the location of the grave, climbing each other, love and longing wrapped into a slowly rising pod wall, thousands of flowers swaying, beautiful. People who love each other are selfish, they only blossom for each other.

Brother Niwa knelt at the school gate until evening, he was like a snowman, and in another part of the city, under the bridge near the parking lot, there was another snowman.

There was a broken rose in the snow, which had been thrown by a flower vendor at the school gate, and had been abandoned by someone else.

He quietly picked it up, and like a thief, embarrassed to put the rose in his bag.

They never even said "I love you" to each other.

These three words are always difficult for men and women from poor mountain villages to say.

With a sprig of roses he had picked up, with the money he had begged for, and with his longing for the girl, he stood up and went to look for her, but she was gone. There was a car accident under the bridge near the parking lot, and five hundred meters from the bridge, the boy saw a girl's head, and a luxury car was parked next to it, and four girls stood next to the car: Lei Lei, Meizi, Cher, and Yeman.

Brother Mud Baby ran over with a rolling belt, picked up the girl's head, and cried loudly.

Lei Lei said, "Who are you who died?" What does it have to do with you? ”

Brother Niwa cried and replied: "She is my sister." ”

Lei Lei said, "Sister? Sibling? Brother and sister were admitted to the same university? Well, 300,000 is enough, right? I lose money. ”

Brother Mud continued to cry, hoarse from heartache.

Meizi said, "You're wearing our school uniform, aren't we, are we alumni?" ”

Lei Lei's eyes widened and said, "Give you another 100,000, how about it, don't be dissatisfied, it's not good for you to make a big fuss, my dad is ......"

Brother Mud Baby roared and said, "No money, no money, no money, no people." ”

Lei Lei said: "Everyone is dead, and there is only one head left, is it possible to cut off the arms and legs of the four of us and catch her?" ”

Meizi said: "This matter is still private. ”

Lei Lei took out her mobile phone and said, "Let's go to the car wash first, unlucky, what about the new car, I'll call my dad tomorrow to ask for money." ”

Yeman said, "Sister Leilei, let's call the police." ”

Lei Lei said: "The police deal with it privately, lose money, I will pay it, it has nothing to do with you, go to the car wash first, and then eat and sing." ”

Lei Lei wrote down the number of the school dormitory, as well as the phone number and her name, and asked Brother Niwa to go to the dormitory tomorrow to get money, and kept the matter private, Brother Niwa lost control of his emotions, took the note, and grabbed Lei Lei's bag, he didn't let Lei Lei go, and asked where his sister's body was, Lei Lei said she didn't know. After the incident, the police found a headless body covered in heavy snow in a trench on the side of the road.

The other girls stepped forward to grab Brother Mud Baby, Lei Lei broke free, and simply didn't even want the bag, and the four girls got in the car and left quickly.

That night, all three girls were drunk, except for Yeman, who didn't care about the car accident, Lei Lei's father was a high-ranking official, and the other girls believed that Lei Lei had the ability to settle the matter.

Yeman didn't drink and returned to the dormitory first, Lei Lei and Meizi were dizzy, staggering and supporting each other, and Xue'er delayed for a while to return to the dormitory because she went to find the owner of the restaurant near the school.

For this case, Niwa Brother did not make a careful plan, the escape route was also improvised after the crime, he felt heartache and despair, his purpose was only to kill, and the purpose was very clear: to kill four or one of them. He bought an axe, followed the address on Lei Lei's note, slipped into the dormitory, and waited in the dormitory for the four girls to return.

He put his sister's head and Lei Lei's bag in his school bag.

The four girls returned to the dormitory one after another, and Brother Niwa himself didn't expect to kill the four girls so easily, he only knew how much he hated them in his heart. The snow outside the window is falling, the empty campus is silent, and the snowman is also a temporary idea to piece together the snowman with limbs, not a premeditated crime by reasoning and analysis during the police crime simulation, maybe Lei Lei's sentence played a role in prompting - "Is it difficult to cut off the arms and legs of the four of us and catch her". He wants to give his beloved a complete body, and for him, the four girls are the murderers, so he uses the murderer's limbs as compensation for his sweetheart.

The snowman's head looks at the teacher's apartment, where the two student beggars would love to live.

The people who sell zongzi never know what "Lisao" is, and the migrant workers who build high-end commercial buildings live in sheds.

They've been wandering, they're begging, and they've wanted a home too!

A few days later, the mud baby brother was arrested in a simple rental house near the school, and the murder weapon was found in the rental house - a bloody axe, as well as Lei Lei's bag, and a broken rose to devouring rose.

Brother Niwa told the special case team that he wanted to wait until spring to go to the place where he used to kneel together and beg for money.

The special case team interrogated some details of the crime, and Brother Niwa confessed that after he killed someone, he jumped from the ventilation window of the toilet on the third floor to the snowdrift downstairs, and before jumping down, he didn't see Lei Lei crawling out of the bedroom, nor did he see the little demon.

Professor Liang and the cadres of the student union gave a bounty of 10,000 yuan to the little demon.

Su Mei said: "Now that the case has been solved, I might as well tell you something, do you know what Gillian's QQ network name is?" ”

The little demon shook his head nervously and said, "I don't know." ”

Su Mei said: "Little demon! ”

Professor Liang said to the little demon: "When you were sleepwalking, no one knows what you did in those three minutes, but ......"

The little demon said in horror: "But, what? ”

Professor Liang said: "You sleepwalked back and returned to the dormitory from the scene of the murder, and your roommate saw you ......"

The little demon's eyes widened and he asked, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Professor Liang said, "You're crying, you're in tears! ”
