Chapter 11: A Lifetime of Repentance

Lin Daohan listened to his words, and he also had no idea for a while: his old father is now in the hospital and urgently needs money for surgery; If you have this money, you can solve the urgent need. But is it worthy of conscience to do this yourself?

But in the end, in the face of reality, Lin Daohan still compromised, "Okay, I'll just do what you say, but let's declare it first, we can't kill people." ”

Jiang Xufang nodded and said: "That's for sure, Ye Zhibin and I are also innocent, how can we kill people." Am I just short of money? Brother Lin, you have taken good care of my little brother for so many years. This time, even if I pull you to make a fortune together. I found a friend and he had his own way. When the time comes, you will obediently wait to collect the money, and take the money to treat the old man as soon as possible, this is the point. Saying that, Jiang Xufang took another bottle of liquor from his shop.

"What kind of friend are you, reliable or not, how are you going to steal it, don't hurt anyone." Lin Daohan was obviously not at ease.

"Don't worry about this, don't worry, I have a way." Jiang Xufang opened the cap of the wine bottle, took a big sip of wine and said.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xufang asked again: "Brother Lin, you have a good relationship with Ye Zhibin, don't you know where his lottery ticket is, and what is the number of the winning ticket?" ”

Lin Daohan thought for a while and said: "I have been to Lao Ye's house a few times, and I saw that he usually put the purchased lottery tickets in the drawer of the table in his bedroom, because once again I gave him the lottery tickets I bought for others, and people had to change them back, so I went to their house to change them, and I saw him take out the lottery tickets from the drawer of the table, so I know where he put the lottery tickets." After finishing speaking, he took out another piece of paper and wrote the number of the winning ticket to Jiang Xufang.

"Alright, Brother Ringo. Then you don't have to worry about it, you just wait to collect the money and treat the old man. Jiang Xufang left like this.

After Jiang Xufang left, Lin Daohan's heart was full of thoughts, he didn't know whether his choice this time was right or wrong. He could only pray silently in his heart: "God, please forgive me, I am forced to do this." My father is now lying in the hospital, continuing to pay for the operation. I promise that after he is discharged from the hospital, he will definitely find a way to compensate Lao Ye and his family. ”

However, what he feared most happened in the early morning of the 12th. He received the news that Ye Zhibin's family was on fire and both husband and wife died.

At noon that day, Jiang Xufang came to Lin Daohan's grocery store again and took a bottle of liquor, and it could be seen that he was also in a bad mood.

"Jiang Xufang, did you kill Lao Ye and the two of them, and did you set the fire. You guys are so ruthless, didn't you just say yes, you only stole a lot of people. ”

"Can you please shut up and stop chattering. I'm afraid that others won't hear it, and I don't want it to be like this. Damn, that person is really ruthless, and he said that since he was discovered, he would kill him. , it's really not human's work. Jiang Xufang drank half a bottle of liquor in one sip, and he could see that it was like this, and it was beyond his imagination.

"Then what should we do now, if the police find out about us, none of us can escape." Lin Daohan was scared.

"What's the use of being in a hurry, don't babble yet. It is because of me, and I am more anxious than you. ”

Jiang Xufang drank the remaining half bottle of liquor in another sip: "That's right, Lao Lin." Ye Zhibin bought a lottery ticket and won the lottery, you haven't told others, right? ”

Lin Daohan shook his head: "No, if I wasn't drunk last time, I probably wouldn't have told you." ”

"Good, good, good. One less person knows, one less difficulty. Lao Lin, I'll think of a way again, don't worry, your money won't be less. With that, Jiang Xufang left.

Lin Daohan waited in a trance for several days, and during this time, Jiang Xufang was like he was missing, and he never came again. And Lin Daohan regretted it, but he didn't dare to turn himself in, so he spent it in panic and self-blame.

But after two or three weeks passed, Jiang Xufang suddenly came again: "Lao Lin, this is 200,000, you take it." As he spoke, he handed him a black plastic bag.

Lin Daohan opened the plastic bag and was shocked: it was full of stacks of renminbi, a total of 20 stacks.

"You guys, you've taken out the money, let's... Isn't it okay. Lin Daohan asked tentatively.

Jiang Xufang's expression was very solemn, and it seemed that he acquiesced: "Lao Lin, don't ask, it's okay, no one is allowed to mention this matter in the future." Isn't the old man still in the hospital, it's important for you to hurry up and treat him. ”

Seeing him like this, Lin Daohan was embarrassed to say any more. After more than a month, Jiang Xufang never came again. Maybe you have money, and you don't need to work with him anymore.

And Lin Daohan had this money, in addition to curing his father's illness, he also tried to make some investments with the remaining extra money. Soon, the Lin family's economic conditions improved greatly, and they no longer wanted to be as poor as before.

Sometimes, his wife Hou Fang asked why he suddenly became rich, and Lin Daohan smiled and said to her: "Because you are a prosperous husband, you see that after you married me, you have suffered so much with me, but you have no regrets." Now we are finally happy to live a happy life. ”

Hearing her husband say this, Hou Fang was also very happy, but Lin Daohan turned around. There was another burst of guilt in his heart, this guilt had tormented him for so many years, what was the truth about the death of Ye Zhibin and his wife, and who was the murderer.

Lin Daohan wanted to go to Jiang Xufang to ask for clarification, but Jiang Xufang couldn't find it anymore, the whole person seemed to have evaporated in the world, and what evaporated with him was the mystery of the death of Ye Zhibin and his wife.

In the years that followed, Lin Daohan began to believe in Buddhism. Every fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year and other important days, he will go to the town to pay homage, in addition to blessing the safety of his family, Lin Daohan also hopes to eliminate his own sins back then.

A few months ago, Lin Daohan felt unwell, and as a result, he went to the hospital for examination and found that it was already terminal cancer, Lin Daohan

I won't be able to live for a few months.

Seeing that his time was running out, Lin Daohan was thinking of the incident back then. Deciding to write them all down, he found a diary and began to write when he felt a little better. However, writing for a long time aggravated Lin Daohan's condition.

Lin Daohan's abnormal behavior attracted the attention of his wife Hou Fang and son Lin Mingkai. The two persuaded him not to write anymore, it would hurt his body. But Lin Daohan refused to stop writing. Finally, one day, Lin Mingkai asked him what he was doing.
