Chapter 57: Pretending to be a ghost
The yin qi of the morgue seeped coldly into everyone's skin.
"Hell!" The two men were frightened from morning to night, they left Bai Chunhe, and rushed to the door in a panic, and knocked over several iron frame beds on the way.
After the two men ran away, Bai Chunhe hurriedly beckoned his younger brother, "Jingming, let's get the body away quickly." Avoid long nights and dreams. ”
"Okay." The siblings worked together to divide the body into a body bag and transport it to the back door by night. The two of them started the small three-wheeler and ran away.
It would be the middle of the night, and Martha was already asleep.
Bai Chunhe asked Bai Jingming to take out his clothes and put them on the corpse, so that it was really a little similar. "Let's throw the body into the river while there's no one at night, and tomorrow you'll call the debtor."
"Just tell them to go, am I going to die?" Bai Jingming's eyebrows were tangled, and there was a hint of irritability in his tone.
"Listen to me, you won't die." Bai Chunhe whispered a few words in Bai Jingming's ear, revealing his plan in full.
Bai Jingming nodded again and again, "My good sister, you can come up with this method, it's so smart." ”
Bai Chunhe said coquettishly: "You know, now let's move the corpse down." ”
The coordinates of the Bai family's house are quite good, there is a window facing the Yangtze River, and the river flows day and night, rumbling, thick and thick, flickering and jolting, like flowing heavy metal.
The sediment carried by the river is constantly flowing forward, and although the current is not fast, the sediment is not willing to be lonely.
There are countless large and small whirlpools at the bottom of the river, and if a person jumps out, he is likely to get entangled in the turbulent and messy current, and then die.
Bai Chunhe and Bai Jingming carried the corpse downstairs, and Bai Chunhe said silently: "Big brother, I'm sorry." You're down there, I'll burn you a few more Stygian coins. ”
Far away, connected by muddy yellow waves.
Bai Jingming put the corpse down, and Bai Chunhe picked up a sharp stone and scratched the corpse's face so that it was impossible to distinguish the face.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Bai Jingming felt very stunned.
"Plop!"
Bai Chunhe threw the stone into the river, and the depressed river burst out with a thudding sound, like a red-hot rolling glass solution, and rolled forward, and the stone disappeared in an instant.
Bai Chunhe explained: "If the debt collectors come to the door and you pretend to jump into the river, they will live to see people and corpses." When this body is salvaged, they see that this face is not yours, and that is not a goof. ”
Bai Jingming held his chin in both hands, and starry eyes appeared, "Sister is really thoughtful and witty. ”
"Let's get to work." Bai Chun and Dao.
The two worked together to soak the corpse in the river, but fearing that the corpse would be swept away by the river, they pulled out a slip of water grass from the bottom of the river and wrapped it around the dead man's ankle and arm, and then left satisfied.
By the time the two of them had done these things, the sky had slightly revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly, and the lights on the first day swept the soft and delicate waves little by little, weaving back and forth, and the river water was faintly clear.
Bai Chunhe washed his hands in the river, "When it is dawn, you can call." ”
"Okay." Bai Jingming thought of those vicious big men, he only felt a touch of coldness on his back, and he wanted to escape again, but Bai Chunhe kept staring at him, and it was not easy to steal the corpse, so he missed this opportunity, and he didn't know what year and month he would wait for.
He could only stay up slowly, and he was like a year.
The sky was already bright, and the sun was red and red, embedded in the clouds woven by the red leaves. The river was basked by the sun, and the white water vapor was wisps on the surface of the river, like countless spinners drawn out of the river. The front waves push the back waves, and the blue water is flooded with golden flowers, like thousands of little stars chasing and playing in the water.
Bai Chunhe stretched out his hand and touched the river, which was a little cold and biting. "Before jumping into the river, you drink a bowl of hot water, move your muscles and bones, and avoid cold hands and feet, and cramps when swimming."
Saying that, Bai Chunhe pulled Bai Jingming into the house, boiled a pot of hot water and poured him biscuits, and ordered Bai Jingming to do a new era radio gymnastics, completely moving his muscles and bones.
Bai Jingming was so tired that sweat broke out on his head, "Sister, can I make a call?" ”
Bai Chunhe bowed slightly, "Yes." ”
Bai Jingming dialed the phone. "Bald brother, come to my house, we can do an understanding."
The man on the other end of the phone smiled, "Have you scraped together enough for two million?" ”
"You'll find out when you come." Bai Jingming quickly said a few words and immediately hung up the phone.
In just half a minute, his back was wet with cold sweat, and his clothes were sticky and sticky to his body, which was very uncomfortable.
Bai Chunhe comforted: "Don't be afraid, my sister and mother are with you." ”
Bai Jingming had a bitter face, "Don't let your mother get involved in this matter, I'm afraid she won't be able to stand it." ”
Bai Chunhe glared at Bai Jingming viciously, "You just remembered that your mother couldn't stand it, and when she was playing cards, she thought about her sister." ”
Bai Jingming was extremely ashamed, and his face turned red. "I see. I was wrong. ”
Bai Chunhe turned around and ignored Bai Jingming, called Masha in the room up, and explained Bai Jingming's plan to fake his death. "Mom, we really can't pay this money back. had to let Bai Jingming fake his death to escape his debts. ”
"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Martha rubbed her eyes, apparently not waking up yet.
Bai Chunhe said: "Wait for Bai Jingming to jump into the river and fake his death, you will cry very sadly, I will cry too, and then we will find the body." We have to act like it. ”
"Okay." Martha nodded.
Just as the two of them were talking.
"Ding-dong! Ding dong! The doorbell rang urgently.
Bai Chunhe gave Martha a meaningful look, and she turned around and opened the door. "Welcome."
The three big men scrambled to squeeze out of the door, "Where's the money?" Take the money? ”
Bai Chunhe smiled slightly, "Don't be in such a hurry, let's sit down and talk slowly." ”
"Phew." The bald man's throat spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, "What do you want to say?" ”
Bai Chun and the slightly upturned peach blossom eyes bend, and it is a picture of a fallen city. "Naturally, it's about money."
"What is there to say about this. It is only natural to repay debts. Then you give the money, and we will leave. The bald man sat on the sofa with his left leg on his right leg, cocked Erlang's leg, and looked like he was in a flow of air.
"Some arrears, that may not be a matter of course." Bai Jingming has his sister by his side, and he unconsciously has a little confidence when he speaks.
Bai Chunhe smiled slightly.
"The law stipulates that gambling debts are not protected by law, and Bai Jingming lost money playing cards with you, so your lending him money is an invalid civil act, and it is not legally binding from the beginning of the act. Being gambling itself is prohibited by law. The debts stipulated in the General Principles of the Civil Law of China are arising in accordance with the provisions of the contract or in accordance with the provisions of the law". It goes without saying that it is in accordance with the law, but according to the contract, the contract must also be established in accordance with the law in order to be protected by law. However, gambling is an act that violates the law and the public interest, so it is an invalid legal act and has no legal binding force from the beginning. There is no claim from the beginning, so how can there be debt? And you belong to crowd gambling, so Bai Jingming doesn't have to pay back. ”
"I don't understand what you say. I only know that Bai Jingming has to pay back. Lao Tzu's money didn't come from a strong wind, you won't pay it back if you say it's not repaid, this is not a reason! The bald man looked at Bai Chunhe with a dark face, his teeth clucking, "Bai Jingming, you still haven't paid back today?!" ”
Bai Jingming said loudly: "If you don't pay it back, if you have the ability, you can go to the court to sue me!" The court affirms that the debt is invalid. ”
"You're such a scoundrel. If you dare to call me here today, you just want to entertain me. Lao Tzu will not smoke you to death today, Lao Tzu will not be a man! The bald man jumped up from the sofa and greeted Bai Jingming in the face with a punch.
Bai Jingming was taken aback, he happened to be standing by the window, isn't this the best time to jump into the river?!
Bai Jingming fell back to the window, and the whole person fell into the river with a "plop".
So the river began to be coquettish, desperately clashing with Bai Jingming, when the conflict was intense, Bai Jingming's clothes were opened, revealing his snow-white chest, his lungs were retracted, his breathing was extremely short, and he roared, "I can't swim, help!" ”
Bai Chunhe almost laughed, Bai Jingming was the first place in the high school swimming competition, and his shouting was realistic.
Immediately, Bai Jingming's strands of black hair flew up in all directions, and they were swallowed up by the river for a while, leaving only circles of ripples scattered in all directions.
The bald man leaned on the window and looked.
When the wind blows, the water ripples softly, like someone quietly shaking the turquoise silk.
But where is the shadow of Bai Jingming?
Martha sat down on the ground and cried out loud, tears streaming down her cheeks like pearls on the tip of her white, almost transparent chin. "My son can't swim yet, so why don't you go and save my son. He's going to die. ”
The bald man and his accomplice looked at each other, naturally refusing to go into the water. "It's so cold, I'm not going."
"Mom, I'm going to call someone for help!" Bai Chunhe opened the door and ran out like the wind.
Several enthusiastic people jumped into the water and groped in the water but found nothing. One of them sighed, "The river is so fast, this young man is afraid that he will be more than lucky." ”
The bald man and his accomplices saw that the situation was not good, and prepared to slip away. But Martha hugged her thigh, "Come on, people, just these bad guys threw my son into my river, hurry up and catch them." ”
"Let it go! Or I'll kill you. The bald man shook his head angrily, staring at Martha with round eyes, his yellow and black face as cold as an ice rock.
Martha closed her eyes, and there was not a trace of blood on her face. "You fight, the doctor said that I could die at any time, and if I die, even if you kill me. When the time comes, you'll be shot by the police. ”
The bald man trembled with anger, and his face turned into a purple eggplant, but he couldn't do anything about Martha. "You are talking nonsense, it was your son who jumped on his own."
Martha's lips maintained a subtle arc, and she spoke calmly, "It's not that you hit him, if you don't hit, he'll fall." ”
"Phew! You can say it! You touch porcelain! ”
The bald man lowered his head and stared at Martha, his whole body was almost trembling with anger, the kid first borrowed his own money, and then blackmailed him.
