Chapter 30: Reluctant to Wait
Although it is a ward, it is dedicated to the family members, and it is also a double bed.
She Leopard was also tired, so he closed his clothes and slept beside Xia Li.
Speaking of which, the two nights were really strangely similar, and the mood of the only two of them had changed slightly.
……
On the second day, the sleeping leopard was woken up by the sound of rustling.
Xia Li had already woken up, and was holding on to the bed to pour water and drink by himself, there was originally a nurse, but Xia Li was not serious, and She Leopard was there again, and the nurse was sent away.
Seeing She Leopard being woken up by himself, Xia Li shivered and hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I just want to drink saliva......"
After a night of recuperation and injections, Xia Li was able to speak, but his voice was much hoarse.
"Am I scary? Let's be honest. ”
"Yes......" Xia Li said with his head down.
"Why do you think I'm scary? From the first night you saw me? Or the day before yesterday, or yesterday? ”
Xia Li saw that She Bao didn't seem to be angry, so he lowered his head and said honestly: "Yesterday...... Last night, you killed those refugees so brutally......"
She Bao was stunned, and then shook his head: "It seems that you are still living in the ideal township." ”
Without dwelling on this topic, She Bao asked, "Are you hungry?" ”
Xia Li pursed her lips and nodded.
"Let's eat first." Saying that, She Leopard got up and said something to the guards outside, and got a bunch of documents and looked at it.
After a while, some congee buns and other fast food were delivered in.
Xia Li had a small amount of food, and his throat hurt, so he was full after drinking some porridge, took medicine according to the doctor's instructions, and sat quietly on the side waiting for She Bao to eat.
"Full?"
"Hmmm......"
"Let's go, then."
took Xia Li into the car, and She Bao rushed out of the city with an order.
At the same time, a car carrying prisoners and witnesses had already arrived at the same destination, which she had arranged together when she had ordered dinner in the morning.
On the way, She Bao chatted with Xia Li again: "Actually, last night was an accident, if you don't provoke me, I will take you to the slum today, but the purpose and method will be completely different." ”
Xia Li was a little aggrieved when he heard this, but it was too late to explain at this moment.
"Do you remember when I told you that this is a world of cannibalism? Don't be afraid, yesterday's events are over, and today will not bully you. She Leopard raised his eyes and asked, with a hint of ridicule in his words.
Xia Li naturally remembered, but thought it was just a joke or abstract, and at this moment, hearing She Bao mention it again, Xia Li nodded a little ignorantly.
In fact, she also realized that she still likes She Leopard, maybe because she was tortured and scared, or because she was afraid of the world, or because She Leopard was different from others, she really liked ......
What's more, she understands that as long as she doesn't disobey She Leopard, just like now, he is still very easy to get along with, but last night aside, she leopard's killing of those poor people really left a psychological shadow on her......
She Bao saw that Xia Li was listening, so he said this.
"This is a troubled time, there is a war every day, countless people die every day, every meal we eat is stained with blood behind it, and the tranquility and happiness we enjoy are also exchanged for the blood of countless people, this is a troubled time to eat people."
"There is no tolerance and civilization in this world, whoever is more fierce than anyone can survive, the family or the capital is built on the white bones, in a sense, the dignitaries and nobles in Liuzhou are eating people, including me, and even you."
"But that's it, after all, the trend of the times, no matter what era, there will always be classes and class contradictions, especially in this troubled era, changing a group of families and supporting another group of powerful people may not be much better than the current ones, which are all inviolable."
"But you know what? Yesterday, those displaced people have lost their humanity, and they are cannibalism in the true sense of the word. ”
Xia Li's pupils suddenly dilated when he heard this, "What...... How can it be! ”
"How could it not be? Do you know why there were only men yesterday? ”
Xia Li shook his head in horror, but he already had an unimaginable answer in his heart......
"Because they exchanged wives and children on their way to exile, they were eaten even by the emaciated men, and those who did not want to eat people were eaten, and they came from the same place, and the strangers they met on the way were also eaten by them......"
She Bao took out the morning document and handed it to Xia Li, "This is the interrogation record from last night, you can take a look......"
Xia Li took it with trembling hands and read it word by word.
Where to go, meet a few men, a few women, and a few children, cook and share the food......
And that's enough to record a few pieces of manuscript paper! It is not so much a record of interrogation as a list of victims.
Tears dripped on the paper and blurred the words, but they could not blur the heinous evil that followed.
Xia Li said with the last glimmer of hope: "Is this fake?" You're scaring me again...... I'm willing to talk to you, don't push me, don't scare me, it's fake......"
"It's almost there, if it's true or not, we can go and see ......"
……
By the time She Leopard arrived with Xia Li, the soldiers had been waiting for a long time to escort a group of displaced people from last night.
Next to him stood a thin young man, a journalist who first discovered the anomaly and finally ambushed him in the distance for days to discover and determine the truth.
She Bao first took Xia Li to the homeless people and reporters for verification, and then looked at it everywhere.
I'm afraid that the interrogation record is only remembered, and I am afraid that there are only a lot more that cannot be remembered......
And such an evil place is only a few dozen miles away from the most prosperous Liuzhou, what about the rest of the places? And how?
Seeing the greatest misery in the world, Xia Li couldn't stand it anymore, and cried bitterly in She Leopard's arms.
And She Leopard is also a flesh and blood body, and he also comes from a peaceful world, and his heart is no less angry and sad than Xia Li.
For a long time, Xia Li raised his crying little face, and looked at She Bao with a choked voice: "Is it that the world is also at fault, and the officials are also at fault?" ”
She Leopard wiped away the tears from Xia Li's eyes and said calmly: "If that's the case, maybe I won't kill them." ”
She Bao sighed and continued: "Do you know why there are almost no beggars in the huge city of Liuzhou? ”
Xia Li heard She Bao say that it seemed to be the case, but there were no beggars in this chaotic metropolis, which can be said to be incredible, and Xia Li suddenly became curious.
She Bao continued: "Because my She family has been recruiting soldiers throughout the territory, as long as their limbs are able, they can join the army, of course, it is not compulsory, and they will not be sent to death as soon as they join the army, but there is a training period of three months to one year. ”
"Moreover, if you join the army, you will have a military salary, and you will be in charge of food and housing."
The frightened Xia Li was very surprised, and choked up: "That...... So why don't these people go? ”
She Leopard was almost amused by Xia Li's stupidity, rubbed Xia Li's hair and said: "Because the border is still fighting against the enemy, you have to go to the battlefield to join the army, and there will be sacrifices on the battlefield." ”
But the exiles and beggars were almost all ruined by foreign invasions and wars to overthrow the old system, and the emperor was incompetent, and the overthrow of the old system was still to better defend against foreign enemies. Many bloody rich people also resolutely set foot on the battlefield, not to mention the beggars and displaced people who were displaced by the enemy? ”
The more She Bao spoke, the more angry he felt in his heart, and his voice became more and more passionate: "And these scum would rather forget the hatred of the country and the family and live their lives than go to the battlefield to throw their blood when they are full of food and drink...... They are like bedbugs in the gutter, filthy and dark, and they are no longer worthy of human standards! ”
She Leopard stared at Xia Li's eyes as she spoke, although this girl looks a little biased, she has justice or righteousness in her heart, even if she doesn't, as long as she is willing to deceive herself to believe it.
