The Human Realm Chapter 26 Conscience
The morning light is faint, a new day has begun again, Dongsheng woke up in the familiar alarm bell, after a night of chatting with the eyeballs, although I still didn't figure it out, but at least the mood is a lot better, recently because of the heavy homework, even Pang Heiwa, who likes to play every morning, is a little tired, today the two of them rarely did not have a fight, they got up and washed up, packed up and the two carried heavy schoolbags, and went out.
When he walked out of the corridor and passed by the guard's room, Dongsheng wanted to leave straight, and today Pang Heiwa was also full of thoughts about eating, and didn't think about it, but in the end, Dongsheng still looked back, it was still the same as yesterday, she squatted there, as if she had never moved, gray was her main color, but yesterday, Dongsheng found that her body had some changes, like lead marks brushed by an eraser, and it was visibly faded to the naked eye, "It has nothing to do with me, it has nothing to do with me", and she thought silently in her heart, turned around and chased after Heiwa, who had already walked away.
The two of them who had breakfast, just like having rushed the electricity, had the energy to deal with today's schoolwork, and today is Friday, and after today, there will be a holiday, not to mention going to the city to see Teacher Li and Teacher Feng, even thinking of the holiday is also happy and energetic.
The two people who didn't desert all morning, finally stayed up until the end of the day, "Jingle bell~", the long-awaited bell rang for the end of class, Dongsheng and Pang Heiwa cleaned up the table, and walked quickly to the outside of the school, one was to eat, and the other was to inquire about yesterday's affairs, Pang Heiwa was like a curious baby, and she had been chattering all morning.
After leaving the school gate, the two walked directly to the middle street through the tube street, and when they came to the middle street, they saw the old-fashioned police van parked there, "Sure enough!" Pang Heiwa said a word, and ran straight to the police car, Dongsheng shook his head in the back, and said in his heart: "This Heiwa, I usually don't care about anything, but when I encounter this, I am very active and ......", and then I ran over, even faster than others.
When I came to the police car, sure enough, there was a young police officer reading a magazine lying in the driver's seat, and the magazine was printed with two big words, "Brother Wang!" Brother Wang! Pang Heiwa shouted into the car.
"Huh?" Hearing the familiar voice, the young officer put down the magazine and saw a black face pestle in front of him, "Heiwa, are you out of class?" If you don't eat, why are you running here? ”
"Brother Wang, do you know what happened yesterday?" Pang Heiwa hurriedly asked.
"You kid, what are you doing all day long, you can't spend your mind on studying." The young officer quipped.
"Brother Wang, let's talk about it, I want to take the police academy and become a police officer in the future, this is studying in advance." Pang Heiwa said with a shy face.
"Hahaha", hearing this, Officer Wang couldn't help laughing, and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you about it." ”
"Okay!" Pang Heiwa answered, and looked at Officer Wang with glowing eyes, and Dongsheng also pricked up his ears.
"Ahem," he cleared his throat, and Officer Wang said: "That's the case, yesterday there was a fight between young people in society, and three of them were injured in our town, one was seriously injured and two were lightly injured. Then he said: "And the one who stabbed the person was from the town next door, and he was also a young man in society, and there were four people, but this will still be absconding, and the police are already mobilizing to arrest him, so it should be soon." ”
"From the town next door? But they didn't have a reason to fight for turf, so why did they stab people. Pang Heiwa was a little puzzled.
"Yes, we are also investigating this, and we have also communicated with the comrades of the police station in the next town, and those four people usually have any particularly serious bad deeds, at most, they have fought a few times, and they are all at the level of moving their fists." Speaking of this, Officer Wang is also a little confused.
"By the way, Brother Wang, why didn't you participate in the arrest?" Pang Heiwa asked.
"Hahaha", smiled awkwardly, of course Officer Wang couldn't say that he was not selected, and said: "The director arranged for me to stay on duty to do the work, of course I have to obey the arrangement." After speaking, he looked at the steering wheel with a little weakness in his eyes.
"Brother Wang, who is the person who was stabbed?" Pang Heiwa asked curiously.
Hearing the voice, Officer Wang said casually: "It's Chen Pi Ah Si and his two dogs, who were with Director Sun's daughter on the outer street at the time, and then they were stabbed by four people hiding in the crowd." ”
After a pause, Officer Wang said again: "However, that Chen Pia Si was quite lucky, he was stabbed more than 10 times and hid in a supermarket, and the supermarket owner did not tell the person chasing him, otherwise he might have died." Officer Wang shook his head as he spoke.
"By the way, speaking of which, that Miss Sun is quite powerful, she was the first to inform us, and she was responsible for the transfer and expenses last night, it seems that Chen Pia has a good relationship with the four women, and she has found a good girlfriend." Officer Wang added.
"I thought it was some complicated case?" Pang Heiwa said with some disappointment.
"What do you want, boy? In a small town, where do big and important cases come from. Officer Wang said helplessly, and said again: "Moreover, every time a case occurs, someone will be injured, so don't ignore the safety of others because of your curiosity, stinky boy." ”
"I'm sorry, I know, Brother Wang." Pang Heiwa apologized.
"Hahaha, it's good to understand, it's not in vain that I often go to you to do legal education now, and after listening to the matter, let's go to dinner." Officer Wang said nonchalantly.
"Okay" answered, Pang Heiwa pulled the somewhat distracted Dongsheng to the place to eat, and Officer Wang also picked up the magazine again and passed the time.
When she was far away, Pang Heiwa said: "Dongsheng, do you think this thing is a little strange, why do the people from the next town come to our town to stab people?" ”
"Hmm", Dong Sheng nodded and said, "This suspicion is indeed strange. ”
However, the two of them still had no clue after thinking about it, "Forget it, let's leave it to Officer Wang and them, when we get caught and there is a result, we will ask again." Pang Heiwa said in a given up.
"Okay", Dong Sheng agreed, and then the two went to eat, and Dong Sheng didn't say anything, his heart suddenly remembered that Zhou Shen he saw on the middle street that day, the figure hiding in the alley, but in an instant, the thought of eating occupied all his thoughts.
After eating and ending the noon episode, the two went to class seriously, only the excitement of going to the city on the weekend and the joy of finally having a holiday.
The afternoon was spent unconsciously, after Mr. Zhao finished his homework, the classmates left one after another, Pang Heiwa and Dongsheng also walked outside the school with their schoolbags, and they were ready to go home directly.
"Dongsheng, I'll be waiting for you at the station tomorrow morning." Pang Heiwa stood at the intersection where she was about to separate and said to Dongsheng.
"Well, okay", Dong Sheng responded, and said: "See you tomorrow", after speaking, he waved his hand and said goodbye to Pang Heiwa, and the two returned to their homes.
Sitting up and returning to the village, Dongsheng habitually found a place to be in a daze, sitting in the corner, Dongsheng looked at the moving scenery of the car, his mind wandered, thinking about everything that happened this week, and finally thought of the figure squatting at the door of the guard's room, and quickly patted his face, letting himself ignore this matter, "I have done my duty!" Saying in his heart, Dongsheng began to think. Wait for what grandpa will do to eat, how is the big yellow dog at home recently, and will he make a "woo woo" greeting sound before he arrives home, which makes Dongsheng think of another thing.
I remember the first time I brought Pang Heiwa to play at home, the big yellow dog began to bark at him, and when he got acquainted, he was unusually intimate with him, and even his little master was a little cold, and even Dongsheng was a little suspicious of the old female dog of the big rhubarb, whether he liked Pang Heiwa, even licked half of the poop, had to share it with Pang Heiwa noisily, when it used its tongue stained with soup, to invite Pang Heiwa to lick the rest of the soup, thinking of Pang Heiwa's uncomfortable wave, his mouth said "Thank you, don't eat." Dongsheng felt funny, "Hey, hey", couldn't help laughing, the people on the side, it was a little strange to see him like this, is this child a problem with his braincase, laughing at the empty distance, it seems that the pressure of learning is too great, the people in the same ride shook their heads, looked at each other, and saw the pity in each other's eyes, "Poor baby......." ”
Dongsheng, who was still immersed in his own world, didn't know that in the eyes of others, he had been driven crazy by learning, and he was still entertaining himself, until the driver stopped and saw the familiar Liu family's courtyard before he came back to his senses, and quickly followed everyone out of the car and left in the strange eyes of others.
Running on the way home, as soon as I got close to the yard a hundred meters, I heard the barking of a dog, "Hey, hey, it's worth a rhubarb, it's already found me." Thinking in his heart, Dongsheng shouted: "Grandpa, I'm back!" ”
Dongsheng accelerated and ran, pushed open the door of the small courtyard hard, and sure enough, he saw it in the courtyard, Liu Laohan, who was smoking a cigarette and looking at him with a smile, Liu Laohan got up and walked towards Dongsheng, took his schoolbag, and said: "Are you tired of studying, sit and rest." ”
"I'm not tired, grandpa, I'm just a little thirsty." Saying that, Dong Sheng sat next to Liu Laohan, took a cup, poured a glass of water from the kettle, and drank it with a grunt, "Drink slowly, don't choke." Liu Laohan said on the side.
After drinking the water, Dongsheng "exhaled" and collapsed on the chair, like a decadent little old man, "Hey, hey, hey", Liu Laohan looked at his good grandson, smiled and said: "Grandpa is going to get food, you play for a while, okay call you." With that, he walked towards the stove.
"Okay", in response, Dongsheng lay on the chair, looked at the clouds above Ebony Village, and waited for dinner in a daze.
This is Dongsheng's home, only here Dongsheng can do whatever he wants, even if he lies still, grandpa will help him get everything right, he just needs to open his mouth to eat, close to him at home, only grandpa's warm love, he wants to talk grandpa will chat with him, he wants to sleep only need to close his eyes, wake up and find that he has been lying on the bed, this small courtyard because of grandpa's meticulous love, so that Dongsheng's childhood has a lot of happy memories, "So this is to take responsibility?" This sentence appeared in Dongsheng's heart, which made him confused again.
"Dongsheng, it's time to eat." Grandpa's voice came, interrupting Dongsheng's thoughts, "It's here!" "Dongsheng went into the stove room, served the prepared meals to the table, today grandpa bought cold salad in advance, made two bowls of lard lasaun, Dongsheng's favorite food is lasagna, gulping cold pork ears and noodles, Dongsheng temporarily forgot the troubles just now, and concentrated on eating, Liu Laohan looked at his grandson with kind eyes, and also ate noodles one after another, and occasionally smashed a puff of cigarettes, under the tungsten lamp is a harmonious grandfather and grandson.
After eating, the dishes and chopsticks were taken by grandpa to clean up, Dongsheng lay in the yard again, the cold wind of the winter night was chilly, but because he was full, Dongsheng did not feel very cold, but continued to look at the sky in a daze, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, Dongsheng knew that it was his grandfather who cleaned up, and also came to the courtyard to rest.
Liu Laohan sat down next to his grandson, smoking a cigarette and looking at the night sky, quietly accompanying Dong Sheng, after hesitating again and again, Dong Sheng still asked: "Grandpa, do you take care of me because you have to take responsibility?" ”
"Huh?" Liu Laohan was a little surprised, Sun Sun came back today and was a little depressed, and thought that there was something wrong with his studies, but he didn't expect to encounter a problem in life, "Hey, hey, hey", smiled, and said, "Yes and no, does Sun Sun want to listen to grandpa?" ”
"Yes!" Dongsheng loves his grandfather the most, and his grandfather is naturally very happy to tell him, and said: "I've been thinking about what responsibility means lately, and I've had a headache." "Dongsheng is a little coquettish.
"Hahaha", Liu Laohan smiled, reached out and touched Dongsheng's chicken nest head, and said: "The person is a big ghost, grandpa's old bones are still there, you don't need to think too much." ”
"Mmmm, grandpa, tell me quickly, I want to know what the responsibility is." Dongsheng said.
Liu Laohan smashed a puff of cigarette, raised his head to look at the sky, and said slowly: "Responsibility, this thing is too complicated, grandpa doesn't understand it too much, grandpa can only tell you his understanding, just like your parents handed you over to me, I can choose not to accept it, and when I accept you, I will think about how to raise you well, how to protect you, until your parents come back and take over your custody, responsibility may be an attitude towards things, just like a circle, If you do a good job in the circle, you are responsible, and if you don't do it, then you may be called an irresponsible person, but no one will do things in the circle, which will only make people look like puppets and lose their humanity. ”
"Humanity?" Dongsheng asked.
"Hmm", Liu Laohan nodded and said: "Human nature comes from the heart. As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the location of his heart.
"The heart is the truest way for a person." Liu Laohan paused for a moment, and then said: "Some people are greedy, some people are arrogant, some people are despicable, some people are cruel, some people are kind, some people are gentle, etc., this is the heart of people, this is human nature, and responsibility is more like a ruler, measuring the treachery of human nature." ”
"Grandpa, what does it mean to take responsibility?" Dongsheng asked.
"It's a bit difficult," Liu Laohan took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Taking responsibility can be divided into active responsibility and passive responsibility." ”
"It's too hard to understand." Dongsheng grabbed his head and said.
"Then grandpa will give you a chestnut, see if you can understand." Liu Laohan touched Dongsheng's head and continued: "For example, taking the initiative to take responsibility is like grandpa taking care of you, thinking about not only keeping you alive, but also letting you live a healthy, happy and happy life, even if you were not accompanied by your parents in your childhood, you will not have sad and sad memories." Liu Laohan said.
"What about passive responsibility?" Dongsheng asked.
"It's simple, taking responsibility against one's heart is passively taking responsibility." Liu Laohan said.
"Grandpa, why are you willing to take the initiative to take care of me?" Dongsheng said.
"Because of family affection, little grandson." Liu Laohan touched Dongsheng's head and said: "There are people in this world because of family affection, some because of love, some because of friendship, some people because of kindness, and some people because of sympathy, choose to take the initiative to take responsibility, and it is precisely because of these dazzling human brilliance that people will do more things outside the circle when they do things in the circle." ”
"So, does Grandpa feel tired taking care of me?" Dongsheng asked a digression.
"Hey, hey", Liu Laohan smiled and said, "Sometimes, but when I see you, I feel full of strength in my heart." ”
"What if I'm a bad guy at heart?" Dongsheng asked.
Liu Laohan pondered for a while before he spoke: "Dongsheng, there are no pure good people and bad people in this world, for example, you have a bun in your hand, and a person is dying of hunger, you give him the bun, and he comes back to life, and others will say that you are a good person, so if you and that person are starving to death, and you have a bun in your hand, and you eat the bun, and that person starves to death, are you a bad person?" For example, if you are dying of hunger and you see a person with a bun in his hand, and you snatch the bun and eat it, and you survive, and that person dies, then are you a bad person? ”
"So, who are we?" Dongsheng was a little dizzy.
After touching Dongsheng's head, Liu Laohan spoke: "We are just a group of ordinary people struggling to survive. ”
"Grandpa, the more you talk about it, the more my head hurts." Dongsheng hugged his head and said.
"Hahaha", Liu Laohan smiled, "Sun Sun, if you can't figure it out, let it go first, maybe one day in the future, you will figure it out one day, then you will grow taller than grandpa, understand more than grandpa, and go farther than grandpa." ”
"Okay", Dongsheng replied with some frustration, remembering something in his heart, and said, "Grandpa, I have one last question. ”
"Oh? Say, Grandpa, listen. Liu Laohan squinted and lay there and said.
"Grandpa, you said that if there is something, there will be a lot of trouble if you do it, but it will be very uncomfortable not to do it here." As he spoke, he pointed to his heart, thinking to himself, "Grandpa, I definitely don't know that I'm talking about myself." ”
Liu Laohan looked at the lonely moon in the night sky with his eyes half-open, and his voice seemed to come from far away: "Sun Sun, whether to do it or not, don't you already have an answer in your heart?" Don't let hesitation blind you. ”
After chatting, Dongsheng entered the hall and began to watch TV, before leaving, he told Liu Laohan that he would go to the city with Pang Heiwa tomorrow to see the sick Teacher Li, originally Dongsheng thought that Liu Laohan would ask Teacher Li what was wrong, but he didn't expect to ask, it seems that grandpa should have known for a long time, but he didn't know where to know, however, Dongsheng didn't bother, after all, grandpa has more acquaintances in the town than he knows classmates.
Listening to the sound of the TV in the hall, Liu Laohan smoked a dry cigarette, "Alas~", suddenly sighed, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "The child is older, it's not easy to coax." ”
