Chapter 18: I will die with you
The screams had become whimpering, and the wild dogs got into the alley from the garbage can, and when they saw this scene in the dead corner, they immediately spread their hooves and fled.
Mao Jun was pressed to the ground, his mouth was stuffed with weeds mixed with fishy soil, his body was covered with scars, and his head was punched several times. His hands were handcuffed behind his back, and his eyes were dark. Suddenly, a bright light pierced his eyes, and he screamed and rolled on the ground in pain.
Ah Yue put away the strong flashlight, kicked him to fall asleep on his back, and stepped on his chest, gradually exerting force.
She bent down and showed a picture of Li Jia, blurry in the dim light of the alley. "Do you know him?"
Mao Jun barely opened his eyes, and he couldn't see the face in the photo clearly at all, "Look...... Can't see clearly......"
"Okay, can you see it this way?"
Ah Yue shone the flashlight at the photo, and the face in the photo instantly turned pale, and in this pale whiteness, Mao Zi swallowed his saliva. "No...... I don't know much about ......."
Ah Yue nodded knowingly, took the photo back in his pocket, and kicked him in the face, she controlled her strength very well, she would not let him die, but let him feel guilty.
"I don't know, I'll let you know you today." She lifted him with one hand, threw the bloody man into the corner, turned on the flashlight, and reached out to open his eyes.
"Don't, don't! I know, I know him! Mao Jun roared indistinctly, snot and tears coming down together because of fear.
"Now you know each other? It's late. Ah Yue sneered a few times, took out the fruit knife brought out from the police station, and put the tip of the knife against his forehead. I hate others bullying little girls the most, since you know that scumbag, and you think you are also an accomplice, where do you say I cut you first? ”
The tip of the knife slowly moves downward, from the forehead, to the tip of the nose, lips, throat, chest, stomach, stopping in the lower abdomen. "People like you should be wolf-hearted and dog-hearted, full of filth and filth, why don't I take out your heart and lungs and feed the dogs."
"Ahh I was wrong, I was wrong! Eldest sister, I really know it's wrong, it's all the bad things they did, and it has nothing to do with me! ”
"Who did it?"
"Shi Lingling, Han Xiaoya, Li Lulu, and Li Jia, they were all their ideas, they tricked the little girl into the alley, let Li Jia get her on, and then took nude photos, and the next day they came to me in a panic, asking me to tell the police that they were in the Internet café all morning, where the do I know so much!"
"Why are they looking for you?"
"I'm ...... I just wanted to trick a junior high school student to play at the beginning, Han Xiaoya, she took the initiative to give her arms, and the two of us were in love for a while, and then one day, she told me that there was a good thing, let me take my brother Li Jia with me, I just want to take some videos, photos or something to make some money! I didn't kill people! ”
Her eyes darkened little by little, deepened, the flashlight was clenched, and she was gradually raised, and just as she was about to smash the scum, a shout suddenly came from behind her.
"Ah Yue!"
Guo Bai quickly ran to her side, snatched the flashlight that was raised high, and the blade hit the ground with a crisp sound. "What are you doing?! Do you know that you will go to jail like this, and what will you do then?! What should I do, what should I do, what should I do?! ”
"I ......"
"What are you, do you know how worried I was just now!"
"Boss, I'm ...... What's wrong? Hu Lai looked down at the knuckles of his fingers that were red from the beating, and his lips trembled. She seemed to be asleep, and a voice woke her up.
But the voice wasn't her name......
She looked sideways, and in the dimness, there was a small red dot flickering, it was a voice recorder lying quietly on the ground.
Guo Bai held her hands, then buried his face in them, and breathed deeply. "I don't really know what to do anymore...... Come on. ”
"I'm sorry." She muffled.
"You don't have to apologize, it's me who didn't protect you."
The mobile phone rang, and Guo Bai answered the phone, "Hey? ”
"Boss, the fingerprint comparison came out, the fingerprint on the lighter is Han Xiaoya's, it should be a gift she bought for her boyfriend. Also, I checked the prison records of Li Jia and Mao Jun, and they were both arrested for the same gathering of people to make trouble, so they can be regarded as cellmates. ”
"Got it."
Hu Lai sat in the car, looking at the sun through the empty window, so red and so cold. Today is the court day of the fall case of Hope Middle School, and she has long foreseen the outcome, so she is reluctant to go in to observe.
Through the efforts of the lawyers, the verdict is as follows:
Because the defendants in this case are all minors and do not have independent knowledge and the ability to act independently, and the victim Hu Xiaona chose to jump off the building by herself, this court sentenced the main offenders Shi Lingling, Han Xiaoya, and Li Lulu to three years in prison, the main offender Li Jia to eight years in prison, and the accomplice Mao Jun to three years in prison. If you have any objections, please appeal within the stipulated time.
The judge's small hammer struck suddenly, Guo Bai sat in the audience, and made eye contact with several defendants, in the eyes of those girls, there was no guilt, no remorse, and no crying when conscience was found.
Yes, it's just the joy of escaping, and the joy of killing.
He pursed his lips to control the chill rising from the bottom of his heart, and Grandma Hu sat beside him, her eyes red and her hands on crutches trembling.
"Grandma'......"
"This officer, I want to ask...... Why, why didn't the person who killed my granddaughter have to pay for his life, why did my granddaughter be tortured to death by them, and they could continue to live, why ......"
"Grandma, I'll take you home." Guo Bai grabbed her arm and helped her up.
A gust of wind blew into the car, Hu looked to the side, Guo Bai closed the door heavily, sat on the passenger seat, and closed his eyes.
"I haven't paid off the loan for this car yet, boss." Hu Lai held the steering wheel, his face full of displeasure.
Guo Bai glanced at her, couldn't help laughing twice, and closed his eyes again. "Let's go, let's drink."
"I've never drunk."
"Then you just watch me drink." He tugged at the corners of his mouth, smiling wryly.
Hu Lai lowered her head and thought about it, started the car, the parking space in front of the courthouse was very crowded, and she wasted a lot of effort to drive the car out. "Grandma Hu is coming home?"
"No, there was a dessert shop owner who had to take her away, and the two of them went to Hu Xiaona's grave together, and I asked Dayang to follow."
"Dessert shop, Xie Tiantian?"
"Well, it's her, the court verdict, crying in the auditorium is a handful of snot and tears, the first time I've seen someone crying so ugly in such a big life......"
"Boss." Hu Lai interrupted his chatter, she looked at him, Guo Bai was pinching the corners of his eyes, taking a deep breath.
"Okay, let's not talk about it." Guo Bai exhaled a breath of turbid air and sat up straight. "By the way, Ah Yue's bottle, have you read it?"
“…… No. ”
"You should see, the real Ah Yue has disappeared, but the personality has survived in your body, which is the continuation of another life."
"Very perverted."
"It's lucky, if I were you, I would have read all the contents of that bottle, it would be equivalent to reliving her life. And it could have been the last thing she left behind. ”
The car made a sharp turn, jerked up on one side, and fell back to the ground with a heavy blow. Guo Bai covered his stomach with a painful expression, and the river and sea turned inside, and he couldn't stop hurting.
Hu Lai lowered the speed of the car and said leisurely, "I was dazzled just now, let's go, I'll take you to drink." ”
"Come on...... I ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Hu Lai pressed down the window, opened the sunroof, and the cool breeze poured into the carriage from all sides. The sudden cold made Guo Bai hug himself tightly, "Come on, put the window ...... Close...... Close it. ”
"Do you still want to throw up?" Hu Lai looked at him, full of concern.
"No, I'm in good spirits right now."
The car drove across the asphalt road, and finally turned into a snack street behind the police force, Hu Lai found a place to park the car, got out of the car with Guo Bai, and walked into the snack street.
Guo Bai walked into a barbecue restaurant on the corner of the street with a familiar car, and the owner was a big northern man with a stubble on his face, smiling politely in a thick voice. "Captain Guo, it's so early!"
"Rest today, bring me a bottle of old white dry, and some lamb skewers." Guo Bai found a seat in the back and sat down, he looked up and saw that Hu Lai was still hesitating at the door.
"Come on, what are you doing?" He asked.
Hu looked at the whirring range hood, and the boss pulled the black charcoal in the big grill with an iron rod, and pulled out some sparks. When the charcoal fire was hotter, the boss raised the brush and brushed a layer of oil on the shelf mountain, and the oil flowers dripped onto the carbon, and a burst of smoke came out and crackled.
A large skewer of mutton skewers was put up, and with a "sting" sound, Hu Lai swallowed his saliva.
"Well? Leave it here. ”
Hu Lai pointed to the sizzling mutton skewers with some concern, and turned his face to look at Guo Bai, "Can you eat this thing?" Is it hygienic compliant? ”
The sound of the blower and range hood was loud, and the boss did not hear Hu Lai's words. Guo Bai reached out and grabbed her arm, took her inside, and pressed her to the seat.
"You haven't eaten skewers?"
Hu Lai shook his head, "I never eat this kind of thing, and my family doesn't allow me to eat it." ”
"Why?"
"My dad used to be a criminal policeman, and when he was young, he handled a case where a barbecue stall owner killed someone, and then made human flesh into meat skewers and sold them, and when he found the body, the whole body had been stripped of the flesh, and only a well-preserved head remained......"
"Okay, okay." Guo Bai stretched out his hand and asked her not to say any more, if she continued to say this, he would have to vomit here today. "Trust me, this shop is absolutely reliable."
As soon as he finished speaking, the proprietress took two bottles of Lao Baigan and put them on the table. "Team Guo, what bad case did you encounter again?"
Hu Lai raised his head, the proprietress was a fleshy woman, with two plateau red spots on her cheeks, grinning, and she was a kind and hearty woman.
Guo Bai nodded thoughtfully. He took a bottle of Lao Baigan, unscrewed the lid, and the smell of wine immediately came out, he reached out and poured a glass for Hu Lai, and put it in front of her.
"I don't drink."
"Really?" Guo Bai smiled and poured himself a full cup.
Hu Lai pushed the wine glass away from herself, and the choking smell made her brain fog for a while.
Guo Bai leaned forward, "You don't smoke and don't drink, how can you relieve pressure?" Don't tell me you're gifted and can accept anything. ”
Hu Lai thought for a moment and replied, "Eat hopping candy." ”
“…… Okay, when I didn't ask. ”
Two bottles of old white dry, one bottle of two pot heads. Hu Lai watched Guo Bai spend most of the day pouring himself into consciousness, and the skewers were piled up next to him.
"Boss, boss?" Hu Lai stretched out his hand and carefully touched him twice.
Guo Bai was lying on the table talking nonsense, ignoring her. Hu Lai took out the wallet from his coat pocket, got up and went to check out, the proprietress was greeting the other guests, and turned around and shouted: "It's okay, just record it in Captain Guo's account!" ”
"I'll pay for it anyway." Hu Lai pulled out a few hundred-dollar bills.
She mixed Guo Bai, the man's heavy body was all pressed on her shoulders, and Hu Lai turned his head to avoid his hot breath full of alcohol.
"Come on...... Where are you taking me......" He asked drunkenly, resting his chin on her shoulder.
"The police station."
Guo Bai didn't answer her, and was saying something she didn't understand. Hu Lai stuffed him into the car with all his might, closed the door, and went around to the other side to get into the car.
"I'm not going back to the police."
Guo Bai seemed to wake up suddenly, but he was still half-squinting, drunk and dark.
Hu Lai bent down to buckle the seat belt for him, and before he straightened up, the drunk man in the co-pilot lay on her back, and emphasized again with slurred lips, "I won't go back to the police station!" ”
"And where is your home?"
"My home is in ...... Gross-"
A warmth slid down her neck, and the person lying on her back continued to vomit as much as he could, as if she were a toilet. There was no place in Hu Lai's body that was not trembling, she clenched her fists, trying her best to control herself and stay calm.
"Ah——!!! Guo Bai! I will die with you!! ”
