Chapter 53: Another Layer of Darkness
In the closed room, Gu Wenwen stared at the incandescent light above her head, without blinking her eyes.
No matter what kind of light it is, staring at it for a long time will make people feel dazzling, but she looks at the light bulb as if she is not tired, as if something big is happening.
Fang Lubai and Shi An sat opposite, and neither of them spoke.
Time passed block by block, and the whole room was extremely silent, as if thinking about something.
After a long time, Gu Wenwen opened her mouth to speak, but found that her throat was a little hoarse because of dryness.
Grabbing the plastic glass of water on the table, she tilted her head and poured a glass of white water down, and the burning sensation in her throat faded a little.
Licking her lips that had been a little cracked after being moistened by the water, Gu Wenwen cleared her throat and said the first sentence in a long time: "That's right, I killed the three people." β
As soon as this sentence came out, it was like a stimulant, not only Fang Lubai and Shi An, but even everyone who was watching the monitoring outside the interrogation room cheered up.
The drowsiness was driven away instantly, and Fang Lubai sat up straight, but did not interrupt the girl's words.
After saying this, Gu Wenwen didn't wait for other people's reactions, and continued to talk to herself, like a cold-eyed bystander, little by little, narrating these things.
"Maybe you don't believe it, but I really thought about being with Lin Zhi'an, but fortunately, you woke me up."
Gu Wenwen's voice was very calm, calm as if she was not talking about herself, nor what happened to her.
"I'm going to kill them, and I don't know why. After so many years, I've gotten used to it, used to them like this, and even liked it a little. After all, except for the hardships I suffered when I was very young, after I obeyed, I was able to get what I wanted, and even more. β
When she said this, Gu Wenwen casually pinched the plastic cup in her hand: "It stands to reason that I have read so many books, how can I accept such a distorted relationship?" I should be a little more resolute...... But why? They gave me what they wanted, and to some extent even pampered me, so why should I give up such a life? β
Gu Wenwen's words shocked everyone, probably because the previous video was too impressive, no matter what, in most people's hearts, Gu Wenwen would kill the Gu family who adopted them because of hatred. Hate their brutality to themselves for so many years, but now it doesn't seem like that.
And no matter what others thought, even Fang Lubai was shocked by this passage, but years of experience in handling cases have taught him not to be surprised, so even if he is surprised now, he does not show anything on his face.
Although Gu Wenwen's words were a little vague, Fang Lubai still understood the meaning.
One of the most important points is that Gu Wenwen didn't kill them because of hatred, to be precise, not because she kept this twisted relationship that made her hold a grudge, but something else.
What was it that made Gu Wenwen, who was originally willing to sink into this dark relationship, suddenly kill all three of them and set fire to everything?
"Since you liked the previous state, what made you want to kill them?"
Fang Lubai thought of this and asked directly.
Hearing Fang Lubai's question, Gu Wenwen suddenly chuckled, with a hint of wind and dust in her words: "What else can it be?" Betrayal, of course. β
As soon as the word 'betrayal' came out, Fang Lubai realized that it was not simple, but before he could ask, Gu Wenwen herself gave him the answer.
"You know what? Ever since I found out that I seemed to be enjoying this life, I was so scared that I couldn't sleep all night. My sanity told me that this was not the right situation and that I should leave. But my emotions tell me, since it's all like this, it's nothing, anyway, you can't wash it clean, why torture yourself? β
"In this way, I lived a miserable life every day...... Honestly, they're very nice to me, really nice, they're going to want to make me happy, and I can feel pampered other than doing those things. It's like what happened after that, not so much *, but willingly. β
"I'm not the kind of person who wants to set up a torii when I become a female cousin, so when I realized that the balance in my heart was tilted, I looked at myself squarely, and I thought that my life would come over like this."
When these words came out, there was a trace of sadness hidden in the depths of Gu Wenwen's pupils, as if she had seen her former self. Later, I don't know what to think, the hand holding the plastic cup squeezed tighter and tighter, and the words spit out of my throat one by one, with seven points of resentment and three points of confusion-
"But then they fell in love with someone else? How can it be? They made me like this, and now they're telling me that they want to let go? Do you know how funny it is? β
Gu Wenwen's eyes were red when she said it, and she was a little crazy: "Why are they!?" Why should theyβ"
The last sentence carried the girl's unwilling roar.
Shi An suddenly understood Gu Wenwen.
When you think it's a foregone conclusion, you indulge yourself in the mud and sink in. The stench gradually numbs your nerves, they begin to spread all over your body, and with your consent and even some expectation, those who pull you down suddenly tell you that you are not the only one, and this is undoubtedly a fatal blow to you.
You think you've made the biggest sacrifice to make everyone happy, but you don't know that you're the least valued one. Your faith, everything you think you think you are, is like a joke.
You live in a wonderful dream that you have woven yourself, and you are smiling happily. But when you wake up, the darkness of reality catches you off guard.
Facing Gu Wenwen, who was emotionally out of control, Fang Lubai did not speak.
After venting, Gu Wenwen looked at the man in front of her who was still as calm as a mountain, and suddenly hooked her lips and chuckled: "Captain Fang, is my story good?" β
In the face of Gu Wenwen's face-changing stunt, Fang Lubai did not show a trace of surprise, he spoke calmly, with the usual gentle smile on his face: "I'm sorry, I don't know what kind of emotion you need me to express." β
It was originally a very rude sentence, but for some reason, Gu Wenwen laughed when she heard it, it was the kind of real and heartfelt smile. Although it was very short, even Shi An had to say that it was really good-looking.
It's like after all the gloom has been blown away, Gu Wenwen's original appearance.
Putting away that smile, Gu Wenwen said, "Later, I met Lin Zhian. β
