Chapter 22: Rose - Crush
When Ren Xun took the things handed by Ren Yu, he hadn't woken up yet, and his head was dazed.
Three memory cards are lying in the palm of the hand, two are small, the memory card built into the mobile phone, and the other is a larger one, which Ren Xun recognizes, it is the memory card of the camera at home.
He yawned and looked at the clock, it was half past one in the morning.
Ren's father and mother had already slept, and their bedrooms were on the second floor, and Ren Yu deliberately lowered the sound when he knocked on the door.
"Brother, what's this?"
Ren Yu's face was serious, and his lips were tightly pursed: "You give this to your head teacher." ”
"What?"
Ren Xun still didn't react, in fact, he didn't think about Zhou Haixu's matter at all, until Ren Yu hung his head and seemed to be very anxious and said:
"This should be able to help Jiang Limei."
During the New Year's Day holiday, he followed Zhou Haixu for three days at the cost of a severe cold.
He didn't understand why Zhou Haixu was following Jiang Limei at first, Jiang Limei had many friends and social interactions, and went to many places in those three days, shopping malls, movie theaters, and suburban ski resorts, Zhou Haixu didn't fall a step, and always kept shooting with his mobile phone.
Ren Yu followed behind Zhou Haixu, although he was puzzled, he could only follow step by step, Zhou Haixu patted Jiang Limei, he ...... Just shoot Zhou Haixu.
He was even in a trance, what was he doing with such an unseemly act?
But if Zhou Haixu doesn't stop, he can't stop.
This strange tracking continued until the third day, and finally understood what Zhou Haixu was going to do. At the end of the movie that day, Jiang Limei and another girl came out of the movie theater, turned around and went into the bathroom, Zhou Haixu looked around and followed in.
Zhou Haixu is not tall, and he is a teenager, wrapped in a black down jacket, wearing a hood, and he can't distinguish gender at all when he is drowned in the crowd. Ren Yu hurriedly followed, but had to stop.
The aunt in cleaning clothes came out of the bathroom with a dripping mop in her hand and was stopped by Ren Yu. He pointed to the women's bathroom and told the cleaning aunt as briefly as possible that a boy had just entered, but the cleaning aunt spoke with a foreign accent and obviously didn't understand too much.
Ren Yu experienced such an embarrassing moment for the first time, he couldn't rush in by himself, and there was no way to find someone to ask for help, and the people he asked for help would only feel outrageous, what kind of prank between children was this?
His hands hung at his sides, clenched into fists, his nails digging into his flesh.
Fortunately, fortunately, Jiang Limei came out soon, eating popcorn and dipping some syrup on her hands while watching a movie, she just went to wash her hands, and when she came out, she shook the water droplets on her hands, kissed and hugged the girls who were traveling with her, and didn't notice behind her, Zhou Haixu also walked out.
Passing by, Ren Yu quickly turned around.
He had never wanted to smash someone with his fist like that, he hadn't fought since he was a child, but that day it was as if a switch on his body suddenly turned on. He wanted to taste what it was like to smash his fist on a person and blood burst out of his veins.
Still held back.
He continued to follow Zhou Haixu, but his mood changed, he couldn't wait to make everything public, so that everyone could see what kind of mongrel Zhou Haixu was, he once read a popular science book on psychology, which wrote that the term antisocial personality disorder cannot be applied to teenagers, because at the age of teenagers, the social outlook is far from being formed.
But is this a rhetoric that can be used to infringe on others?
He took the memory card with him to the dispatch/outlet. The police officer who received him was about the same age as Ren's father, pushed his glasses, looked at him with eyes that were no different from the elders telling the juniors, patted him on the shoulder, and said that these are not the standard for filing a case at all.
You are a minor, you have something to find a teacher or a parent, find a guardian, of course, if it is just a conflict between classmates, don't make a big fuss.
Ren Yu's body froze, and his jaw was like a string about to break.
He had to do something, one way didn't work, so he tried the others, he wrote a real-name letter, planning to go to the principal's office to report it with his real name after the final exam. He doesn't know if it's effective, and according to the previous school's treatment of Zhou Haixu, most of them are useless.
But even if it doesn't work, you still have to do it.
Once a person has something he wants to protect, he will do everything he can, even if it is harsh, dangerous, or even a lose-lose situation, it doesn't matter.
The real-name letter is still tucked between his physics books and has not had time to be delivered.
Ren Yu stood by the bedroom door, his face illuminated by the faint night light in the living room.
Ren Xun originally wanted to ask what was in the memory card, but when he saw Ren Yu standing quietly, his body seemed to be caged with a layer of depression, and his eyes were as deep as a well.
But he didn't dare to speak.
Ren Yu is angry, which is unusual. The angry appearance of the good child is different from others, as if a piece of warm jade suddenly has a crack.
Ren Xun also woke up from sleep, and held the memory card in his palm: "...... Okay, then I'll give it to the head teacher tomorrow. ”
Ren Yu nodded, suddenly changed his tone again, and his tone was firm: "No, you go directly to the police and go tomorrow." ”
He suddenly changed his mind because he remembered what he had overheard in the school building that day. Zhou Haixu's parents privately looked for Teacher Ji, Teacher Ji is a famous teacher, peach and plum are all over the place, she protects Zhou Haixu's studies, not only out of kindness to a child, but also to maintain her own teaching career.
Ren Xun can hear it no matter how dull he is, this thing his brother gave him should be very critical, critical enough to affect the whole thing.
"Brother, this thing can prove that this matter is Zhou Haixu's own fault, right?"
Ren Yu moved his lips slightly, didn't make a sound, and after a while, he suddenly spoke: "You just give it to the police." ”
By implication, don't ask more.
After speaking, he turned around and left, Ren Xun was in place, and he was blessed to his soul for a moment, and shouted: "Brother!" ”
Ren Yu looked back at him.
"Brother, do you know that Jiang Limei?"
Otherwise, why do you care so much about her?
Ren Xun felt that the tangled ball finally had a thread that could be disassembled, and Ren had a reasonable explanation for the abnormality of these days.
"You know?"
Ren Yu continued to be silent, with an unclear expression: "I don't know." ”
She didn't know him.
Maybe for Jiang Limei, he is just the fate of her first day of high school admission, there is no need to recognize him, and it is not worth taking it to heart.
"Then why don't you go and hand it over to the police yourself? Why bother to turn a corner and let me go? ”
There was the sound of turning on the lights from the parents' bedroom, and I don't know if it was because my father got up at night, or if they were too loud and noisy. Ren Yu paused, his voice was calm and cold, but he couldn't hide his anxiety:
"You and Zhou Haixu are in the same class, so your words can be trusted."
It's a reason, but it still doesn't seem to stand up to scrutiny, Ren Xun wanted to ask something else, but Ren Yu threw down another sentence: "Don't mention me, you took it." Then he hurried back to the bedroom and led the door lightly.
At the other end of the corridor, a warm yellow light came over, and it was Ren's father's voice: "Ren Xun, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, sleepwalking?" ”
Ren Xun shrugged, his middle finger and index finger were pressed together on his eyebrow bone, and he saluted in the direction of Ren's father with a hippie smile: "Sleep, sleep Mr. Ren, good night." ”
#
Ren Xun was not interested in the contents of the memory card, but when he handed over the memory card to the police in front of the principal, he still saw the contents of the public security bureau.
The police brought out all the photos and videos of several G's in the memory card, and these evidences are enough to prove that Zhou Haixu has been following Jiang Limei, and the scenes are not limited to school, outside school, on the street, in various public places, and even in the women's bathroom.
The school leaders and policemen present all looked serious, and a policeman pulled Ren Xun and asked seriously: "Young man, did you take these pictures?" Can't lie. ”
Ren Xun was still lazy just now, and after watching the video and photos, he was disgusted, almost certainly: "Yes, I filmed, he can do this disgusting thing, and he is still afraid of being photographed?" He snorted: "Everything you shoot is here, how can you deceive people?" ”
Several policemen looked at each other for a moment, but said nothing more.
When he left the inquiry room, Ren Xun asked, what would he do with Zhou Haixu? Will he be dropped out of school?
The principal tugged on Ren Xun's sleeve, glared at him, and pulled him away in a hurry.
。
Later, Ren Xun learned the result of Zhou Haixu's incident with all the teachers and students of the school, and posted it in the lobby on the first floor of the administration building, with a letter on it to persuade Zhou Haixu, a student in the sophomore art class, to quit.
The banner at the school gate was also taken down, and Zhou Haixu's parents no longer had a position to make trouble, as parents, they actually knew about some of their son's bad habits and some behaviors that violated social morality, but they were repeatedly banned. The evidence that Ren Xun submitted to the police was actually only a part, and Zhou Haixu's computer actually had more secretly filmed videos, many of which were even from unknown sources, which were illegally filmed with a hidden camera.
As for Jiang Limei, she is not the only victim.
After Ren's father and mother knew that the evidence was handed over by Ren Xun, Ren's mother was so angry that she twisted Ren Xun's ears: "Why do you have everything?" Do you have to come out of anything? ”
"It's not me, it's ......"
Ren Yu had a cold face and threw a look.
Ren Xun was choked, closed his mouth again, spread his hands, and leaned on the sofa without hesitation: "Okay, it's me." ”
"What about the little girl? Will I be able to go to school normally? ”
If you are someone else, if you encounter such a big thing, you may transfer to another school, and you may take a year off from school to adjust your mood, but that is Jiang Limei, Jiang Limei who can fight without armor.
"It is said that her parents have long wanted to send her abroad, and this is just an opportunity, but she doesn't, she wants to find all the girls who have been harassed at school, unite and sue Zhou Haixu."
When Ren Xun said this, he was stunned for a moment, he looked at Ren Yu, who was eating with a calm face, as if he wasn't listening at all.
He finally understood, why did Ren Yu just want Zhou Haixu to drop out of school? Those evidences are clearly in favor of Jiang Limei to punish the villain with the law.
The good boy deals with people, steady and ruthless.
"Oh yes, Jiang Limei's parents are also in business in Ancheng, and they seem to be very famous...... Shenglin Group? Dad, have you heard of it? ”
When Father Ren heard this, he put down the teacup in his hand and thought for a while: "Lao Sheng? I didn't hear he had a daughter. ”
"Reorganize the family, Jiang Limei's surname is Jiang, and her father's surname is Sheng." Ren Xun had an expression that had already been glimpsed secretly: "Dad, is Sheng Lin very powerful?" ”
"It's rude, that's an elder."
"Oh, Uncle Sheng, what kind of business does Uncle Sheng and their family have?"
......
After the meal, the aunt served the fruit after the meal, which was the strawberry that had come down from the new crop this year, and it was refreshing.
Ren's mother called him: "Ren Yu, come and eat some fruit and study again." ”
Ren Yu shook his head, turned up the volume of English listening in the CD, enough to drown out the chat downstairs, and after a moment, he directly removed the CD in frustration.
The room fell silent again.
He didn't want to know about Jiang Limei's family, but he greedily didn't want to miss any details about her.
In contrast, Ren Xun was more open-minded, and he became curious about Jiang Limei.
The faint sound of chatting reached the second floor, and Ren Yu leaned against the door and listened quietly.
Ren Xun said that Jiang Limei did not show a trace of a little girl's squeamishness in the whole matter, and even the negotiations with the school and the police were made by herself, and she never hid behind her parents, and now she is strongly demanding that Zhou Haixu be punished, all of which are her ideas.
Ren Xun said that Jiang Limei looked delicate and thin, but she was full of energy, facing the mediation of the school and Zhou Haixu's parents, she was holding her neck, but she was not convinced.
Not like her name.
She is like a sage in the yellow sand, not like a pampered rose.
。
The first semester of the sophomore year of high school ended with a heavy snowfall.
The sun rises and the snow melts, and the sound is cold.
The final exam results were released quickly, and Ren Yu was still the first in the school year, and no one was surprised by himself. Ren's father and mother said yes, and took the two children out for a big meal in the evening, as a reward and relaxation. Q: What do you want to eat? He just smiled faintly and said anything.
At this point, half of my high school career has passed, and at the beginning of the next semester, I will enter the general review of the college entrance examination. Ren Yu didn't feel any special sense of ceremony, if there was anything memorable this semester, it should be the first day of school.
In the early morning of September, in the cold frost and dew, he met a person who was unforgettable at a glance.
Even if she didn't know him yet, it didn't seem to matter.
He passed by his brother's room and heard Ren Xun talking on the phone inside, and his tone was brisk. He knew that it was Jiang Limei on the other side of the phone.
Because of Ren Xun's evidence, Jiang Limei and Ren Xun quickly became acquainted. In order to thank Ren Xun, Jiang Limei gave him an oil painting, which she painted by herself.
As both art students, they send each other's own works, which are sincere and romantic.
The painting is a scene of spring flowers, which he recognizes as the pavilion covered with heavy violets and creepers under the teaching building.
Jiang Limei's color is as warm as her, and the paper is full of spring color, delicate and tender yellow.
She loves spring.
Ren Yu looked at it silently and returned the painting to Ren Xun.
Ren Xun stopped him: "Brother, she should thank you, why don't you tell her the truth?" ”
He lowered his head, his expression was obscure, not disappointed, just faint: "It doesn't matter." It's all the same. ”
Ren Yu likes to read, but rarely reads romance works, and he rarely empathizes with those specious love philosophies, but in just a few months after knowing Jiang Limei, he remembered two sentences.
A sentence was said casually by Zuo Jing, secret love is the hardest thing in the world.
Another sentence is also about crushes:
Your silent liking for a person is an adventure that knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers tigers to go to the mountains.
Since it is an adventure, there is no rush for results.
The math teacher said that speculation is not worth supporting at any time and in any context. Ren Yu was convinced in the past, but somehow, he wanted to be a speculator in this matter.
Maybe there is a slight chance of winning?
He hoped that Jiang Limei would know him in other ways and remember him, instead of holding him hostage to others.
I also want to bet once, betting that his crush will pass through the cold winter and usher in a bright spring.
