Chapter Twenty-Three: Upside Down Dreams
A young singer by the dock was playing and singing to herself, and the old song was like a wisp of gray-blue smoke, drifting into the heart of every passerby.
"One person, one mask, one person, one joy, now dispersed
One person, some reasons, one person, one mouth, can't tell the truth from the false
One person is stimulated, one person is afraid, but they are happy
One person, one page, one handwriting, one person erased it with one hand, shocking......
It's me him or you
Let the horse lose its hoof
And we actually ruined our own scenery
It's fate or fate
Make the road bumpy
In the end, what is left is to blame......"
Chu Ling took a deep breath of salty air, his thoughts drifting with the sea breeze and music. It's just that the negatives are still being washed and printed in my heart.
"You must go into the room to rest at night, otherwise you will fall ill after three days of turbulence after dawn." Shen Tianli instructed, "Don't blow too much." Predisposed to joint pain. ”
Qiu Ling: "You're old. ”
"I'll give you a chance," Shen Tianli said angrily, "Say it again." ”
Qiu Ling said: "Does the minister still have orders?" ”
He stared at her and smiled, "Go to bed early." But will you ever be afraid to meet me in the future? ”
"Why?"
"Because it's too transparent."
Qiu Ling smiled: "It is still difficult for everyone to understand themselves, how can others see through it like this?" ”
"It's not normal to be smart. Always? The referee laughed, looked at Shen Tianli and asked.
Shen Tianli snorted: "Yes, I'm stupid." ”
Qiu Lingxue spread his hands and turned to the deck.
The judge let himself take a nest on the sofa in the auxiliary cabin, and suddenly fell asleep. Shen Tianli lay half-lying on the other side of the deck without saying a word, hoping that Qiu Ling would spit out a few more words.
There are fragments of stars floating on the surface of the sea, but if you look closely, you will find that it is an exaggerated rhinestone ring, which seems to be familiar from somewhere, and it is extraordinarily luxurious.
However, from the moment it was thrown to the surface of the sea by a slender hand, it was destined to float forever in the darkness.
Qiu Ling opened the freezer, and there was still wine in it. The situation is really unreliable! She laughed and poured herself a glass.
The tingling warmth on the tip of her tongue made her relax a lot.
She briefly examined some of the ship's equipment, then returned to the cabin, not knowing what to do, but staring at a nondescript closet.
Of course, she knew what would be in the closet, and this closet would play a key role in the next three days.
But in the dark environment at this time, Qiu Ling couldn't help but think of some scenes from horror movies.
If you open the closet door at this time, will a long-haired human head roll out?
Qiu Ling's composure was lost to his imagination, and he shuddered.
However, reality or fantasy, which is more terrifying?
Qiu Ling gasped slightly, unable to find an answer. But if she had to choose, she'd rather be in a ghost realm.
Maybe no one should be alone on the sea in the middle of the night, maybe someone should be with you. It doesn't matter who it is.
There was a slight snoring sound from the passenger cabin, which was due to the fact that he had not closed his eyes for three or two days, and he had to sleep peacefully to maintain his vigilance after a few hours.
Outside the cabin, Shen Tianli's forehead hair was extremely messy by the sea breeze, and he looked at it from a distance by the railing, regardless of the humidity that aggravated the stickiness of the gauze-like plaid coat, as if he didn't know the cold.
Qiu Ling sneered, and finally decided to be alone and quiet.
There was a stack of paper printed with the totem of the small country where the situation was located, Qiu Ling took it easily, took out the pen given by the stranger when he was in the café, and scribbled it to resist the dizziness, and his eyelids gradually became heavy.
It was dark, and she fled wounded into a darkened storefront, with no bullets left in her pistol.
"Boss, two rows of bullets, quick!" She came in in so hastily that she didn't notice that there was no one at the counter.
"Anyone?" Qiu Ling called anxiously.
"What do you want...... a long-haired woman suddenly stood up from under the counter, just in time to be close to Qiu Ling.
Qiu Ling took a step back: "You scared me. Give me two rows of bullets. ”
"How many?" The woman asked slowly.
Qiu Ling smiled bitterly: "What are the few bullets, the bullets are sold by the piece?" I want two rows. ”
"But, I only have three bullets here, you see......" The woman pulled open her blouse, revealing a bloody chest with three bright red bullet holes on it!
"One ......" The woman pulled out the bullet with her hand and counted it strangely, "Two ......"
"Ahh
The woman's face became hideous: "It's miserable, it's not enough, what should I do?" ”
She smirked, and her blood-dripping upper body suddenly floated towards Qiu Ling, it was Nie Danwei!
Qiu Ling had long been unable to scream, and fell to the ground, touching a hot and humid thing in his hand, which turned out to be a human head!
"Ahh Qiu Ling jumped up and kicked the head far away.
The head rolled into the corner of the wall, aimed head-on at the hill spirit.
It was Shen Tianli's head!
And the whole shop was surrounded by fire in an instant, and the fire dragon shop was rolled up all over her body, and her eyes were on fire......
She screamed frantically, only to feel her hands being pulled tightly, and there was nowhere to escape.
"Wake up, Qiu Ling? Chuling! Wake up! ”
Qiu Ling was woken up by a jolt, and when he opened his eyes, he realized that it was a false alarm.
She was stunned, like a frightened rabbit.
Shen Tianli pressed her shoulder hard and soothed, "Nightmare again?" ”
She looked around timidly, threw herself into Shen Tianli's arms, and said incoherently: "Fire! Brother, it's on fire, it's on fire everywhere! ”
Shen Tianli was stabbed by the sensitive keywords in these memories, and the guilt of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart suddenly surged.
"It's okay, look, we're at sea." He lost his usual eloquence, and felt that any words would be pale and weak because of the weakness of one's heart.
Over his shoulder, Chul could see that the coast was slowly moving farther and farther away from them.
The boat sailed.
The boat is gone, can it still be sailed back?
Qiu Ling thought sadly and closed his eyes: "It's really crazy. ”
Fifteen years ago. Outskirts.
Shen Tianli held on to the steering wheel with one hand, struggling to avoid the trees, rice fields, and the small trucks loaded with fruits and vegetables of farmers interspersed from time to time, and the private cars that came to the outing.
Because of his other hand, he wanted to use it to stop Shen Tianling's little hand from fiddling with the door handle and air conditioner holes, and he was ready to compete with her for the handbrake at any time.
After a few sudden brakes, I couldn't bear it.
He had to give an apologetic look at the beautiful face in the back seat: "Danwei, hold the child and sit in your arms, please!" ”
After the battle at the police station, Nie Danwei was terrified of the child in front of her, as if she could only coquettish ice cream, but she couldn't get in the way, so she had to stretch out her hand: "Come ......"
Shen Tianling sat on her lap obediently and didn't say a word.
Shen Tianli smiled bitterly and patted his head: "Targeting me?" ”
He repeatedly apologized for his negligence in the hospital, and Shen Tianling turned his head to look at the farmers planting rice outside the window, pretending not to hear a word, and it seemed that he didn't intend to forgive anyone.
Shen Tianli suddenly felt that everyone was going to be so embarrassed because of a little girl, uncles and aunts, including herself, were all the culprits, what reason was there for the adults around her to chase her to admit her mistakes?
Suddenly, he said: "Not everything in the world can be as expected, if you can't see it, you can only waste more time, Xiao Tianling, I know you understand." ”
She still maintains that posture and that expression.
Shen Tianli shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "When you arrive in the city, please eat strawberry ice cream." ”
Shen Tianling's small mouth pouted even more, and he said stubbornly: "Don't!" ”
"Oh? What's wrong? ”
Shen Tianling only knelt on Nie Danwei, and said with serious disgust: "Sister Danwei said, you don't have money, my father is the richest, I only listen to my sister." ”
Shen Tianli's face changed, and all the doubts that he had just put down a few days ago suddenly appeared again, and he raised his eyebrows: "Danwei, what do you mean?" ”
Nie Danwei's face turned paler: "When will I say ......?"
The old mobile phone in front of the seat "jingle bell" was remembered, and it was a perfect relief.
Shen Tianli picked up the phone and only heard him say in surprise: "Director Huang? Yes, yes, I'm on vacation. What the?!! My dad? How is this possible?!! ...... I'm sure I didn't come into your room...... What the? My uncle? You wait.... The more I listened, the more confused I became...... Impossible! ...... Okay, you wait for me. ”
He hung up, still with surprise on his face.
After being stunned for a while, he calmly said to Nie Danwei: "Take Tianling home, and I'll go back to the police station." ”
Nie Danwei was puzzled: "What happened?" ”
What fed back to her was Shen Tianli's more confused and strange eyes: "You ask me, but I don't ...... So I need to ....... back," but so suddenly, he didn't understand why he was shaking.
Nie Danwei: "The sky is ...... away from you"
Shen Tianli hid his heavy uneasiness, smiled reluctantly, and looked up at her, as if there was any difference from the past, and he couldn't say anything. He looked at Shen Tianling, who was smaller than he had in his impression at the moment, and found it difficult to sort out his logic.
He could hear his own voice say, "Forget it, I'll take her with me." ”
Three days later. Shen House.
When Shen Tianli arrived with his colleagues, the Shen family's large bungalow, which was the envy of passers-by on weekdays, had already burned to the sky, and a corner of the gray-blue sky was reflected blood red.
The fiery red shadows on the wall were scurrying, and Shen Tianli felt that he was only separated by more than ten meters, and his back also felt hot.
The firefighters arrived at the same time and immediately started the rescue work, watching the lively neighbors shouting: "There's a child inside, there's a child inside!" ”
Shen Tianli was shocked and rushed straight towards the gate.
was stopped by three or four firefighters: "We have been in and out several times, but there is no one inside." ”
Shen Tianli was top-heavy for a while, unwilling to trust anyone, pushed them away with all his might, and went straight to the fire, but he just saw with his own eyes that the bricks and tiles that he knew no longer were unrecognizable, and only the ruins remained.
When he walked out with the plaster and water droplets, and his ears were buzzing, he could vaguely hear his aunt being sent to the hospital.
Too late.
He fell to his knees.
I don't know how long he was depressed, but he heard the maid Sister-in-law Lan say to her colleague: "It was my wife who set the fire." ”
The little officer asked, "Why did she do that?" ”
"My wife has been suffering from emotional illness for a long time, and it is getting worse and worse," Sister-in-law Lan replied excitedly, "She always wants to destroy everything: herself, this family, and everyone in the family ......"
Hearing this, Shen Tianli frowned tightly, rushed over as if crazy, and grabbed her collar: "Why do you describe your aunt like this, why do you!" ”
Sister-in-law Lan obviously couldn't be more afraid, but instead vigorously pushed him away, and calmly said with the resentment accumulated in the past: "Young Master, the Shen family, you have the most muddy brains!" ”
Shen Tianli shook his head, staggered back, and slammed into the charred wall.
