Chapter 15: Murder
Ms. Lee's concerns are not unfounded.
During the time they were together.
There are often girls who send messages to Ren Zhe.
Ren Zhe himself didn't care.
But Li Yuxiu cares.
She often looked at Ren Zhe's mobile phone in the middle of the night while he was asleep.
Speculating on the love that the girls on the text message seemed to have between the lines.
And that's just implicitly.
is more simple and rude like Yuan Yuan.
There is and there is not just one.
But whether it's tactful or brutal.
The purpose of the girls is obvious in Li Yuxiu's eyes.
Although sometimes she herself asks herself.
What is there about Ren Zhe that makes her feel uneasy.
She examined their relationship repeatedly.
He was loyal and clean.
There is no emotional stain on it.
She didn't even have any emotional experience before her.
She was particularly pleased with that.
But she was still not reassured.
He laughed at every turn, just like he hated when he first saw her.
Li Yuxiu is both sweet and flustered.
His demeanor stems from good self-cultivation.
That is, most of the time, his laughter is purely polite.
But what does it feel like in the eyes of others?
The feeling that hit the bottom of my heart made Li Yuxiu never forget.
Then I'm afraid that others will be so excited.
Fortunately, there is only her in Ren Zhe's eyes.
His gaze was still as clear as it was when he looked at her.
Without a hint of distraction.
Ren Zhe's performance made Li Yuxiu feel gratified.
But it's not quite.
She'd seen too many determined men and women fall under all sorts of swift offensives in the bar.
Only the unthinkable, there is nothing that cannot be done.
She was convinced of this statement.
The premise is that there must be enough confidence and courage.
But these two things are common in the eyes of today's girls.
It's like the edge of their two-person world.
The one who has been wandering.
In fact, if you pay close attention, many people who are in love will have such a person around them.
She's not in a hurry, she's not in a hurry, she's not tepid, she's not far or close.
But always by his side.
When he was busy, she was the little attendant who silently handed over the coffee.
When he was proud, she was the good partner with a slight smile on the side.
When he was sad, she was the confidant who comforted him softly.
In short, most of his time, he has her.
You'll feel like he's only yours at night.
Other times, he belonged to her.
Although just joined the work.
But Ren Zhe is handy.
High professionalism and one year of practical experience.
Let him show a rare composure and sophistication from the beginning of his work.
He has excelled in several cases.
Got the blue eyes of the high-level.
He was thus part of the inner team.
A considerable amount of money was also awarded.
Because he can't get an annual salary for the time being.
So that bonus is really substantial.
After getting the bonus, he called Zhang Guangliang and asked him to come out.
The two men went to an open-air barbecue stand to drink and have skewers.
After being released, Zhang Guangliang gained weight again.
Not as decadent as Ren Zhe imagined.
He was neatly dressed and his face was calm.
Wearing sunglasses and whistling.
Even perfume was sprayed.
It's very similar to the Korean fat man who later sang "Gangnam Style" and became popular.
No one can see it.
He's an unlucky guy who was expelled from school on the verge of graduation and almost stumbled to jail.
"Hardship sees the truth, brother." This is the first thing Zhang Guangliang said after seeing Ren Zhe.
At the same time, he gave Ren Zhe a sturdy bear hug.
The hug is strong.
Ren Zhe was a little out of breath.
"Let go, let go, I'm not Xiao Cai."
"What's wrong with Xiao Cai, Brother Xiao Cai, I also hugged it like this, she likes it very much."
Zhang Guangliang smiled as he spoke, smiling with a spring breeze on his face.
"Together?"
"That's a must."
The two men sat down as they spoke.
The waiter came over and ordered the food.
"Xiao Cai, and the children, are you okay?" Ren Zhe asked.
"Okay, okay, now I'm free, I can eat and sleep a day, I'm still spoiled when I'm fine, I'm as big as a cute baby." Zhang Guangliang said.
Meng Bao is Cai Wenting's daughter.
"Is it true that she quit her job?"
"Well, I asked her to quit, rather than guarding it unhappily, it is better to let it go freely."
Ren Zhe found that Zhang Guangliang at this time had completely lost the humility he had when he was in the dormitory.
His whole body exudes casualness and ease.
In just a few months, a beloved woman, something that can't be done for outsiders.
It would make such a big change for a man.
Ren Zhe was also secretly surprised.
"Why, why are you looking at me like that? Did you also find out that buddy, I am actually a beautiful man. Zhang Guangliang took a sip of the beer he had just delivered from the bottle and said.
"Damn, did anyone say that?"
"My little Cai. She said that I was just not obviously handsome, but it was attractive, and the more I looked at it, the more handsome I became. β
"You just blow it. I'm really happy for you though. Heaven has closed a door for you, but it has also opened a window. Although you have experienced many twists and turns, you finally got the beauty back. β
"Thank you, brother, for your words, come, let's go."
After Zhang Guangliang finished speaking, he took the wine bottle and touched it on the bottle in Ren Zhe's hand, raised his head and grunted thirsty for a bottle of beer.
"What's next?" , Ren Zhe asked.
"Get married. Fuck your life, fuck your job, start a family, start a family, get married first. β
Zhang Guangliang's pride made Ren Zhe feel envious.
But as a bystander, he was more sober than Zhang Guangliang.
"That's a good idea." , Ren Zhe echoed and said, "If you want to get married, then do I have to express it." β
"Damn, Ren Zhe, don't be so straightforward. Then the gift money, as a brother, it's not for me to say, you have to give me a bright light, and you have to wrap a big red envelope. By the way, you have to have double copies, you see, you and Li Yuxiu, me and Cai Wenting...... That's four parts. β
"Zhang Guangliang, your little abacus is crackling."
"Let's not say that stingy thing, okay. It's a big deal that when you and Li Yuxiu have something, I'll give you a big one and go back. β
"How big is that?"
"Anyway, I have to get 18,000. Let's say in advance that we can't make an IOU in a red envelope. β
"you. Am I that kind of person? Not sure? Don't worry about cashing it out for you now", Ren Zhe smiled and slapped a card on the table.
"Demagnetize." Zhang Guangliang picked up the card, looked at it carefully, and threw it back on the table.
"Don't regret it", Ren Zhe made a gesture to put the card back.
"There's a play?" Zhang Guangliang snatched the card.
"There were 80,000 dollars in it. Just when I advance the gift money to you and Xiao Cai. Ren Zhe's expression became serious.
Zhang Guangliang hesitated for a moment, and didn't seem to hear clearly.
"You're so good?" He paused for a few seconds and asked tentatively.
Ren Zhe nodded.
"I'm honored that I happened to be able to help you when you were in trouble."
Zhang Guangliang raised his head and opened his mouth wide, rolling up and down his throat a few times.
He knew that Ren Zhe's sister was still in middle school.
My parents couldn't afford to scrape a few dollars in the fields all year round.
It's also the time to use money at home.
After a while, he lowered his head and threw his face on the ground a few times.
"I'll pay you back."
"Not only do I have to pay it back, but I have to wait for the money to buy a house."
Zhang Guangliang didn't speak, grabbed the meat skewer and stroked it.
He didn't look up until he had wiped out all the skewers in front of him.
"Lao Cao, Lao Cao...... Is it better? β
He finally asked.
"It's okay, but that leg didn't survive." , Ren Zhe took a sip of beer.
Zhang Guangliang banged his head on the table.
Ren Zhe looked up at the lights around him.
It was a similar evening at the end of May.
When most of the graduates on that campus were eating casual meals and talking about their classmates.
Zhang Guangliang killed someone.
The one who was killed was the highly respected Professor Cao Wenxuan.
Although because of the timely rescue, Professor Cao picked up a life.
But everyone can see that Zhang Guangliang is going with the intention of killing him.
Zhang Guangliang was subdued by several security guards during the murder.
This saved Professor Cao.
But Professor Cao was fatally stabbed with several stabs in the body.
In particular, a knife on the thigh actually penetrated out, cutting off the large blood vessels and nerves.
This eventually led to the amputation of one of Cao's legs.
After being arrested, Zhang Guangliang was generous and calm, and his righteousness was awe-inspiring.
Seems to have done something remarkable.
He had a clear mind, was in a normal mood, and did not have the slightest hint of post-murder anxiety and panic.
As for the motive for the killing, it was because Professor Cao hung up his class.
Zhang Guangliang said.
But Ren Zhe knew it wasn't.
The reason that is rooted in the bottom of my heart.
I'm afraid only a few people know best.
Ren Zhe could guess a few points, but he didn't know much.
Professor Cao is a well-known academic authority.
So it caused a lot of buzz at the time.
The police also take it very seriously.
Zhang Guangliang was described by the media as a beast who deceived his teachers and destroyed his ancestors and lost his conscience.
Even his parents have pleaded for him in front of the media many times, admitting their mistakes and repenting.
Just when all the rhetoric is one-sided.
Professor Cao recovered.
Waking up and told he had lost a leg.
He sighed.
The first thing he said was to ask how his student was.
The people around him told him about Zhang Guangliang's situation.
He asked for pen and paper.
Trembling, he wrote a letter of understanding.
Determined not to pursue the matter further.
Later, under the running of Professor Cao.
Zhang Guangliang's criminal behavior changed from intentional homicide to intentional injury.
From intentional injury to accidental injury.
Eventually, it dissipated into symbolic reparations.
But the school was bad because of the nature of the incident.
Zhang Guangliang was expelled from school.
At that time, only a few days had passed since Ren Zhe invited Professor Cao to dinner.
Graduation is a full month away.
Professor Cao has heard about what Zhang Guangliang did for him.
But he didn't know what was going on.
No one is as clear as Ren Zhe said.
He didn't give anyone else a chance to tell about it.
Now let Ren Zhe say so.
The more Zhang Guangliang listened, the more indifferent he became.
He sat without saying a word for a long time.
Suddenly roared at the sky.
provoked the people next to him to look sideways.
But Zhang Guangliang completely ignored the gaze of others.
He slipped from his chair and into the ground.
"Poof" both knelt on the ground.
Facing the east, he kowtowed three times.
looked at Zhang Guangliang's somewhat naΓ―ve and somewhat Jianghu behavior.
Ren Zhe wanted to say something, but finally held back.
Zhang Guangliang sat back in the chair, wiped a handful of soil on his head, and said, "We are clear." β
Two cleared.
What is the two clear?
Ren Zhe once heard good things say.
Cai Wenting was able to stay in school in the first place.
He has a close relationship with Cao Wenxuan.
So Cai Wenting's children and her suicide are also related to Cao Wenxuan?
Otherwise, why would Zhang Guangliang risk the big disapproval to kill him?
Did he do this at the behest of Cai Wenting or was it simply his own behavior?
For others, I am afraid that these questions will never be solved.
Although there are still rumors about this on campus.
Various versions.
But there is no doubt about it.
Zhang Guangliang is not a bad person, he is an ordinary college student, a good classmate and partner.
Cai Wenting is not a bad person, she is a dedicated teacher.
Cao Wenxuan is even more not.
He was a tireless professor, a scholar, a generous and benevolent elder, and a loving uncle next door.
Ren Zhe didn't want to speculate about the grievances and grievances between Professor Cao and Cai Wenting.
He felt that it didn't matter if they really had anything to do with it.
It doesn't affect their image in his heart.
It was also the first time that good and evil, good and bad, good and sin, were so vague in his heart.
Human nature is complex and multifaceted.
It's not like the anti-Japanese genre movies or martial arts novels I watched when I was a child.
The heroes and the bad guys are so angular.
A person's actions can affect who pleases whom, offends whom, and hurts whom, in fact, it is not clear at all.
He thought of Yuan Yuan, Yang Lin, and Li Yuxiu.
Whether a person is good or bad is just a theory of relativity.
It mostly depends on who you did what to whom.
Therefore, people say that the coffin is conclusive, and the coffin is conclusive.
When you don't figure things out, it's best not to make comments and accusations against someone you don't understand.
This is a kind of public morality.
I often hear a discourse in society.
When a celebrity has a scandal or something bad happens.
All of a sudden, a number of people who usually don't seem to want to do anything will come out to denounce him and accuse him.
There are also some people who will say that in fact, so-and-so should have been like this a long time ago, and they are all about retribution and so on.
Of course, it is not excluded that some people deliberately rub the heat in order to become famous.
But these people.
I think at least standing in the field of morality, sowing the seeds of filth.
In many cases, I disdain to ignore hypocrites who are not right-minded.
But sometimes it's really infuriating.
The good and bad of a person.
How can one thing be judged in one sentence?
Because of such a big incident, and because he insisted on being with Cai Wenting.
Zhang Guangliang's relationship with his family is very stiff.
For his parents.
Killing may be impulsive.
If you want to be with Cai Wenting, you are also young and ignorant.
But his parents couldn't accept it anyway.
Before his son got married, he had a child who didn't belong to him.
They stopped Zhang Guangliang's living expenses and wanted to force Zhang Guangliang to succumb.
Zhang Guangliang also couldn't find a suitable job because he didn't get a graduation certificate.
In addition, Cai Wenting's expenses increased sharply after giving birth to a child.
In fact, the two of them barely survived on Cai Wenting's little savings and the help of Cai's parents.
Ren Zhe's 80,000 yuan is not much.
But it's like a charcoal in the snow.
Zhang Guangliang used the money to take over a small counter in Digital City.
Sell some computer peripherals.
At that time, the PC industry was growing rapidly.
After operating for a few months, Zhang Guangliang actually gained a firm foothold.
He quickly repaid the money Ren Zhe gave him.
I rented a few more counters and hired a few people.
became a small boss.
