Chapter 62: Gray Dust
An Qiyi squatted in place, her arms scratched out red marks, and anger took root under her feet. Those gentle fantasies of my father that had been stored in my heart were now shattered into 11,000 pieces of rags.
It turned into hate. It became a pain. It became a grievance. It turned into a dense network of thorny vines, piercing every cell of the heart, devouring the body like cordyceps.
An Can seemed to have lost his mind, grabbed the woman's hair and pressed her head against the wall, the sound of the impact again and again sounded particularly frightening, and in an instant, the woman's shouts and the man's curses filled the entire room.
The continuous slamming into An Qiyi's ears was an indispersible thunder, she was very afraid, she couldn't stop the terrible war between them, and she didn't want to see the woman feel powerless until she finally left her......
An Qiyi saw that the woman's strength to struggle gradually weakened, the gray wall turned dark red, and the woman's hoarse cry became drowned.
“…… Xiao Yi, kill him...... Hurry up......"
An Qiyi ran back to the room with a crawl, her teeth chattered uncontrollably, creaking in the cold room, trembling and chanting: "Don't call me, don't call me Xiaoyi at this time...... Please......"
It would be nice if it was a dream, so that when she woke up, she could continue to see the sun, and then go back to class as if nothing had happened, and she would be content to sneak a glance at the boy every day......
When will it dawn?
When exactly will I grow up......
When will I be able to leave this place.
Her eyes could just see the man's bleeding arm being scratched by the woman, and the woman shouting her name at the top of her voice.
"Little ...... Xiao Yi ......"
She already has nothing, what else does she care? Since you can't get love...... It seems that it is not bad to get hate, she only hopes that this time she can protect her greedy and cowardly mother.
"How dare you let that bastard kill me! You see I'm not going to take her skin ...... later. Yes! ”
Before An Can could react, he was pulled to the ground by a brute force behind him, and fear and suffocation were mixed, so that he could only lie on the ground and keep kicking his legs, but his hands couldn't pull the hemp rope around his neck.
An Qiyi twisted the two ropes together fiercely, and the more knots she knotted, the more red and purple the man's face became.
After Lin Ye was relieved, he fell to the ground, and the whole person was still in a state of recovery, and blood continued to flow from his head, flowing to his lips, to his chin, and dripping to the ground......
"Vomit ......" a few retching sounds escaped the man's throat.
An Qiyi stepped on his shoulder with one foot, pulling back with all her might, there was no light in his eyes, and he moved like a walking corpse, tightening his ...... little by little
Kill him.
Kill him......
The voice was all over my head, and there was nothing else, and with a little more effort, this waste would no longer exist......
Suddenly received a heavy blow to the back of the head, An Qiyi looked back in astonishment, only to see Lin Ye's tear-stained face and the broken wine bottle in her hand.
A stream of heat flowed behind the ears and snaked downward.
“…… Mother. An Qiyi was a little incredulous, and her trembling lips let out a soft call with a little choked up.
She wanted to explain, whether she said that she made a mistake or said that she didn't see clearly, she could forgive her......
"If he dies, I'm not done with you!"
Bright red blood seeped through her thin white shirt, and the picture seemed to be still, leaving only the gray outlines of various objects, and the hot breath blown by the woman as she breathed, like an even layer of tears falling on her face.
It was as if the whole body had been drained of strength, and finally fell to the ground when a tear fell out of his eye.
Lin Ye pushed An Qiyi away without looking, rushed forward to untie the entangled hemp rope, trembled his hand to probe the man's snort, and then hugged the man's body and let out a soft sob.
"Mom."
"Don't call me! Get lost...... Get out! Don't let me see you! I'd rather never have you ......"
What Lin Ye said later, she didn't hear clearly, and she didn't want to hear clearly, she only remembered that when she stumbled out of the alley, the neighbors all looked at her with sympathetic eyes, and that kind of look was glass slag, crumpled into her heart bit by bit.
Long singing sounds can be heard in the distance, accompanied by colorful lights floating in the black sky, and the whole night is painted by a lively atmosphere.
It's so lively over there.
An Qiyi looked up at the sky, and suddenly smiled, laughing heartily, laughing seriously, choking with laughter...... She has never believed that 'all men are created equal,' so there is nothing to despair.
Since she was a child, she has been smarter than children of the same age, she thinks that her fate will be very special, she believes that her life will be brilliant and colorful, so she is more determined not to live ordinary, ordinary is comfortable, but also inconspicuous, and simple is boring.
How unwilling she was to be ordinary, and now, she is under the ordinary.
"Quick! It's on fire! It's on fire......"
I only heard the noisy sound coming intermittently, and the hazy realization was like a layer of white fog, An Qiyi's eyes looked along the firelight, and at the right corner of the alley, there was black smoke above his head, like a withered ghost hand constantly changing its appearance.
"Dad...... Mom......"
An Qiyi leaned against the corner of the wall, overwhelming pain and despair hit her, her world was slowly shrouded in darkness, as if a plastic bag suddenly covered her head, making her feel that she couldn't even breathe smoothly, at this time she was not a ghost, and the blood all over her body undoubtedly did not show her fault.
She shouldn't have run away......
There were people passing by at the entrance of the alley, and no one stopped for her groans of pain except for sympathy, no one was willing to get her out of a desperate situation, all they cared about was whether the fire would harm their own house.
An Qiyi's eyes were half-closed weakly, her bloodstained hands gradually tightened, and her nails embedded in the texture of her skin, "I...... I still...... Don't want to die ......"
"Hey! Are you okay? ”
The boy's voice rang out, with the power to break through everything, and to clear the fog that swirled in front of him.
At that moment, An Qiyi really thought she saw hope.
The night was as tiring as spring, casting a veil over the world in front of you.
"Save ...... Save me...... Please save me......"
When Xing Haolin saw the girl lying on the ground, an intolerable feeling of suffocation rose in his heart, the school uniform shirt was almost unrecognizable, black and sticking to the girl, and none of the exposed skin was intact.
This sympathy disgusted him very much.
It's strange to say, because it is a good relationship between the two families, he and An Qiyi have known each other since childhood, but most of the time, she gives him too annoying feelings.
The feeling of being superfluous no matter where you are, it's annoying.
The feeling of being left alone is also annoying.
Xing Haolin stretched out his hand to the girl, and his serious cleanliness habit made him can't help but twist his eyebrows, thinking, 'I must wash it a few more times later'
She felt a pair of hands caressing her cheeks. In the suddenly silent corner, there was only a faint sigh.
"It's not my fault...... It's not that I'm not my ......."
Xing Haolin listened to her muttering to herself, and held her in his arms with a hand through the back of her head, the viscous and moist touch made his heart tremble, and the girl's slowly lost temperature slowed down his thoughts.
An Qiyi tugged at the corners of his mouth and lightly attached it to his ear, "Help me, I can't die yet, I promised him, I can't be untrustworthy." ”
The weight on his shoulders gradually increased, the broken hair on his forehead covered Xing Haolin's dim eyes, his throat seemed to be choked by something, and it was a little dry and painful, "He won't care about you." ”
"He cares about ......"
Even a moment before he was about to fall asleep, An Qiyi was still unconvinced and wanted to prove this fact, if people have no expectations, there is no point in living.
The sirens became clearer, and light poured in from the mouth of the alley, illuminating the girl on the ground and the boy who was frozen.
The firelight in the background, the residents running around.
The world is eerily quiet.
In fact, no matter how long and dark the night is, the sunrise is still the same, the morning light is still the same, and everything is repeated as usual.
Such a life is like an assembly line, and no one will be left behind in the tasks that should be completed today.
The sound of a clock ringing in your ears.
There was a dull ache in her temples with the sound of tapping, and she opened her eyes as she smelled the disinfectant water. Seeing the hanging bottle ticking into the veins, An Qiyi couldn't react.
Light penetrates through the gaps in the curtains, and everything around is white.
Is this a hospital?
Why is she in the hospital?
An Qiyi rolled over, and a strong tingling sensation came from the back of her head.
"Mom and Dad!" She exclaimed, and all she could remember was the fiery red light and the black smoke that swirled around the roof.
"You're awake!"
Looking for prestige, I only vaguely saw He Xiaoxiao's face full of joy. Suddenly, there was a blackness in front of him, and An Qiyi squinted his eyes unbearably, "You ......"
"What's wrong? Isn't there something uncomfortable? He Xiaoxiao hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
An Qiyi reluctantly sat up, the pain in the ninja's head. She raised her hand to touch it, but felt a little uncomfortable being pulled on the back of her hand, and when she took it down, she saw that it was several staggered strips of white tape, and her whole arm was a little stiff and cold because of this cold liquid.
He Xiaoxiao pulled her hand back to the bed and stopped her: "Tsk, don't move." ”
An Qiyi raised her head, and on the empty bed next to her was He Xiaoxiao's schoolbag, which was probably rushed over after class at noon.
"Where's my mom and dad?" An Qiyi's faint expression was like ink.
The floor was a little wet, and the smell of disinfectant water was strong. Tiny particles in the air float up and down in the sunlight.
He Xiaoxiao turned around to get the schoolbag, and pulled the zipper back and forth a few times as if she was playing, but from her slightly trembling hands, she knew that she was not playing, she was running away.
An Qiyi nodded, lifted the quilt and got into it, the corners of his eyes slipped through the hot heat for a moment, flowing into the hair.
She shrunk under the covers and shivered, her tear-soaked hair sticking to her flushed face, and the back of her head ached even more from the action.
