Chapter 158: The Soul in Search of Freedom
"When I got out of Xijing, I happened to meet a band on the way, and I heard them talking, saying that the lead singer of the band was hospitalized due to illness and wanted to choose a new lead singer. I remembered that when I was in a foreign country, I also played music for a while, so I made up a pseudonym and sang a cappella, maybe with more feelings, and they agreed to let me join. ”
"I proposed to sing on the Bund, and they all agreed. I contacted a boat to pick me up on the Bund in advance, and then I went to the Bund with the band to sing, and I was still very emotional when I looked at the villas on the Bund, and I sang on the Bund for two hours, and I watched it for two hours. Then I felt almost there, so I left. At this time, the three policemen realized that it was me who was singing on the Bund, so they chased after me, but they did not catch up, and I fled. ”
"That night, I felt that my whereabouts were exposed, so I prepared to look for someone overnight, and first went to meet the female executive of a large company, the best apprentice I had under me back then. I asked about some of the things of the year, and I identified three suspicious people. ”
"The first one is the one who died in the river this morning, I was just about to go to him, but I didn't expect to die first, I don't know what the reason he died, anyway, it's not good for me to continue to look for him. While watching, I was discovered and arrested by these three policemen, but in the end I was released and told to continue to search for the real culprit. ”
"This afternoon, I went to the second person, and found out that he was not the murderer of the year, but he gave me an interesting clue, which led me to veto the third person directly, but gave me a new target. In order to verify whether this new target was the murderer of the year, I went to the villa complex and found this rich second generation who lived next door to the rose garden, and asked about the situation when the murder happened five years ago. The results speak for themselves, and I immediately identified the real murderer of the case that year, yes, it was my good apprentice, Chen Lin. ”
"Saying that I have come all the way, it is also ups and downs, it is not easy, when I was a child, my family was poor, I basically worked part-time, and then I was lucky, I studied abroad, worked abroad for two years, I felt uncomfortable, so I returned to China, and I returned to China within two years of this thing. There is an old Chinese saying that if you don't experience too many bad things, there will be good luck, and I have twists and turns, and finally I put myself in. ”
"This rich second-generation brother, now believe that I am not the murderer back then, right? The matter has also been clarified at this point, I, Liang Xudong, although cheesy, will not do this kind of thing. ”
Seeing that after his sonorous words were finished, Sun Jianguo said in a slightly comforting tone: "Okay, now that the truth is revealed, you can also regain your freedom, with your academic qualifications, I believe there will be many big companies begging for you, your good life has just begun, don't think so gloomy." This time it was really in response to that sentence, otherwise Ji Tailai. ”
Liang Xudong heard this, not only did not have a trace of joy, but laughed miserably: "No, no, no, you are wrong, I feel now, I have nothing to worry about, I called my relatives before, my parents both died in the second year of my imprisonment, I am now alone, helpless, like duckweed, there is nothing to be nostalgic about, I think I should go, this is not my place after all." ”
"Thank you for giving me a chance to find the facts, I can't do what I promised you, I'm sorry."
"Wait, brother, don't think about it, you're still young......"
Liang Xudong ignored Sun Jianguo's hasty words, silently walked to the edge of the balcony and turned around, turning his back to the outside, Zhang Bin and I didn't have time to think about it, and immediately rushed up, Liang Xudong waved at us, and at the same time showed a happy smile, this is the warmest smile I have ever seen him.
When I rushed to the edge of the balcony, I found that he was falling, his eyes were slightly closed, and his hands were placed on his chest like a devout Christian, but in two or three seconds, I heard a dull sound of falling downstairs, and I didn't dare to look at the situation downstairs, I knew that the scene must be very cruel.
For a while, I felt a little in a trance, and the picture in front of me appeared ghosted, and I vaguely saw Liang Xudong's figure stepping in the air, the corners of his mouth opened, as if he was saying something, I carefully looked at his mouth shape, and finally understood, he was saying: freedom.
Rubbing his eyes, everything in front of him disappeared again, leaving only the cold concrete buildings and the neon lights of the city. For some reason, at this moment I felt chills all over my body, very cold, very cold.
"You rotten person, how vicious can you be to do such a thing? It's really a conscience gnawed by a dog. ”
Zhang Bin pointed to Chen Lin, who was stunned on the side, and couldn't help but scold, and at the same time stretched out his hand to make a gesture, and then thought about it and put it down.
"This comrade, please come with us, this case must have a result after all, and if you need witnesses at that time, I hope you will appear in court and sit down to prove it."
The gloomy young man nodded slowly and promised, "No problem, I will definitely be there then." ”
"Xiao Xu, escort the person back to the Songhai City Bureau, this matter is handed over to us to supervise, in addition, Binzi, you go to contact the funeral home to send Liang Xudong's body to Songhai, find a better cemetery to bury it, if the cost is concerned, I will negotiate with the Xiahai City Bureau."
"Understood."
After chartering a car and returning to Songhai overnight, Sun Jianguo sorted out the matter of going to the sea and handed it over to the emergency command in the form of a written report. Soon the search for Liang Xudong came to an abrupt end, and the Xiahai City Bureau was not having a good time, and after being severely criticized by the above, they were asked to allocate part of the funds to bury Liang Xudong.
The case was quickly retried, and under the testimony of the gloomy young man, Chen Lin quickly pleaded guilty. When the court pronounced the verdict on this case, I felt a little unbelievable, I didn't expect that there are still people in the world who are so crazy about love, how great love will be.
Liang Xudong's funeral funds were quickly turned around, and his funeral was organized by Sun Jianguo with me and Zhang Bin in person, from cremation in the crematorium to the placement of the urn in the cemetery, all the way to follow the whole process. He fell down the stairs in front of the three of us, and there is more or less the responsibility of the three of us, although it is useless for you to save a person who is bent on death, but there are still some pimples in the hearts of the three of us.
Standing in front of Liang Xudong's tombstone, the three of us didn't say a word for a long time, until the light of the setting sun fell on the tombstone, Sun Jianguo turned his head to look at the sunset, then turned to look at the tombstone that was dyed gold, and said in a deep voice: "Some birds can't be closed, every feather of him shines with the brilliance of freedom, even if he is dead, his soul, his body are free, just like Liang Xudong Although he has left this world, from another point of view, why is he not free from the shackles of this world?" We mortals are running hard for life every day, accompanied by the trivial matters of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and have to experience the pain of birth, old age, sickness and death, these are the shackles of the world, but Liang Xudong is now a real free body, from the beginning of the two hundred meters tunnel he began to dig with a spoon, his soul is to get rid of shackles and embrace freedom. ”
"Let's go, he goes to pursue her freedom, and we have to live our own lives."
All the way back to the team headquarters without a word, Li Jun told us that the above commendation was about to come down, and let the three of us prepare to receive the award.
This case still has a great impression on me, so much so that I have been thinking about this case for a long time afterward, how many times does a person have to go through despair before he is so eager for a new life and freedom? I haven't experienced Liang Xudong's experience, so I can't feel the same way, but I can roughly understand that state of mind. Maybe he was full of yearning for life after escaping from prison, but in the later experience, he learned that his family had already died, and found that the real murderer was actually his apprentice back then, and the motive for committing the crime was also unreasonable. I also wrote down this case, but also to let readers understand a truth, you can be like Liang Xudong desperately pursue freedom, but don't try to end your own life to pursue freedom, that kind of freedom gives me more like cowardice in the face of reality.
In modern life, no one is born strong, compared to those disabled, we are more like God's darling, and many disabled people can strive for self-improvement, through their own efforts to make themselves better live, and they do some things are often better than many able-bodied people. In that case, what reason do we have to complain about the injustice of this society, which is dark? All desires come from unsatisfied reality, and all suffering comes from unsatisfied desires. Since as an ordinary person, you will inevitably experience all kinds of cheesiness, instead of complaining about injustice, it is better to work harder, even if you can't reach the goal in the end, it is not far away.
You may think it's chicken soup, but you can't deny that it's true, it's just that you don't want to face it. Dear readers, the benevolent and the wise will see the wise, and I won't talk too much. The next chapter introduces a new case, which is also about why I wrote this, not Zhang Bin.
