Volume 1 Crime and Punishment Chapter 13 Rose

This is the fifteenth year that Rose has come to Qinghe, maybe the young people in the town are not very clear, but the old people in the town must still remember the scene when Rose stepped into Qinghe fifteen years ago.

At that time, Rose was far more handsome than now, at that time Rose still had long hair, wheat-like golden hair tied at random on the back of his head, he carried a big bag, and there was nothing else, at first people thought that he came to Qinghe to visit relatives, but Rose was by the sea, and now the location of his home, he built a thatched hut with wood and branches cut from Qinghe Mountain, and lived like this.

Qinghe's people are still warm and friendly, Rose lives a life of sunrise and sunset day after day, and he lives near the sea, but far away from the town, many people don't know what he does every day, but the people who fish know that Rose is really a good way to fish, and the fishermen who were not big at that time were surprised by Rose's strong physique and skillful fishing skills, but at that time Rose was really not good at talking, even if the fishermen greeted warmly, Rose was limited to a response to say hello, so at that time, Rose left the most impression on the fishermen, is his honest and simple smile。

As the days passed, the villagers became accustomed to Rose's presence and solitude, and Rose gradually had a few friends who were not far away, such as Xianhe, such as Jerry at the entrance of the village, Rose's thatched hut was also in the third year of his coming, because he would harvest more than others every time he fished, plus he didn't have any expenses alone, and it became a small brick house, but Rose was still the same as always, never went to a family in the town as a guest, and never invited others, Rose's presence was so low that one would have thought he had left at no known timing, if he hadn't been carrying a bag of hemp, and putting countless fish in the wagons of the merchants who came to buy them, with a bag of hemp.

And all this changed on the day Chrissy came to Qinghe, Chrissy wore a white wedding dress that day, stumbled out of the woods east of Qinghe, the wedding dress has been scraped beyond recognition by the branches and trees, Chrissy rushed out of the jungle without the slightest hesitation, step by step firmly towards the sea, and behind the beach where Chrissy walked to the sea, is Rose's small brick house.

After a day of fishing, Rose would sit on the steps of the door every night, watch the moon for a while, watch the waves for a while, and today Xianhe happened to bring him a bottle of good wine bought from the city of Maryland, Rose who drank half a sound was already slightly drunk, in fact, Rose saw it when Chrissy just ran out of the woods, but at that time he had not finished drinking, so Rose did not want to move, until Chrissy walked to the beach, Rose threw away the empty wine bottle in his hand, got up and went into the house and closed the door, he had sworn that he would never do anything more superfluous。

Rose was lying on the bed, there was only enough room for a bed in the small brick room, a small table, on which was a photograph, the moonlight was still bright and bright, the sound of the waves outside did not change in the slightest, the moonlight shone through the gap in the roof of the brick house, and the photo was also a woman, who was also wearing a white wedding dress, smiling as delicately as the most beautiful sunshine.

Rose suddenly lifted the quilt, grabbed the photo frame on the table and threw it out of the house, the photo frame smashed on the tree outside the house, and the photo turned into pieces of ashes after leaving the frame, Rose didn't look back, he pushed the door open with great force.

Chrissy was already in the sea and was about to lose consciousness, Chrissy did not struggle at all, and calmly stretched out her hand to let herself sink into the deep sea little by little, suddenly, an extremely strong arm wrapped around her, and when Chrissy was hugged by that figure, the last thing she felt was the temperature of her chest, and the scar on his back that came from the palm of his hand.

Then there is Chrissy marrying Rose even if she wants to break with her family, and Rose comes to the door with her long shaved hair and crappy suit.

Chrissy has always wondered why she was rescued from the sea by Rose that night and slept in his house, because of why all the people who escaped from marriage and came to pursue him did not move at all, how could Chrissy sleep so peacefully in Rose's bed, but Rose never explained, Chrissy's moving beauty caused a sensation in the town back then, and everyone praised Rose's good fortune, and since Chriss's arrival, Rose has become more and more cheerful, he still fishes every day, Chrissy quietly weaves clothes at home, makes three meals a day, and has a short relationship with the people in the town。

Because of Chriss, Rose and the people in the town gradually became acquainted, and then there was Luo Mu and Claire.

Ross is full of gratitude for his present life and a vision for his future life.

Rose sat on the steps of the door and smoked, Chrissy was cooking lunch in the kitchen not far behind Rose, her son went to the town this morning to sink the lines, most of the time there was no drama, but Xiao Ke looked at it with a little bit of success, Rose thought while smoking, Chrissy's voice from the kitchen mixed with the crackling sound of the oil pot said, "Husband, there is no salt at home, you go and buy me some back"

Rose answered, stood up and stepped on the cigarette butt and walked towards the town, the sky was clear, suddenly a cloud drifted from the sea, and then it rained, the weather by the sea was moody, Rose had long been used to it, he stepped up and bought salt in the shop at the head of the village, covered it with his own clothes, and waited until the rain was already very heavy, and the bag of salt he bought was a lot wet even if Rose covered it with his clothes, Chrissy complained about the weather, and took the salt from Rose's hand and poured some into the pot.

The fish made at noon today is a little light, Rose thought while eating, it seems that Chrissy doesn't see much salt, and she is reluctant to put it, Claire is eating the fish, and asks vaguely, "When will my brother come back?"

Chrissy tapped Claire's bowl with her chopsticks, "Don't talk while eating!" Claire sighed, but a pair of big dexterous eyes were still staring at Rose, Rose secretly made a night lip gesture to Claire while Chrissy was eating with her head down, Claire grinned and took a large piece of fish from the plate and put it in Rose's bowl.

It was raining a lot outside, it was very cloudy, and I couldn't go to sea today, Rose and Chrissy lay down on the bed to rest after lunch, Claire also went back to her house, it was too dark, Rose didn't know how long she had been asleep, when Rose woke up, it was still a little dark outside, Chrissy's breathing was still steady, Rose got out of bed carefully, for fear of waking his wife, Rose went to the living room and sat on a chair and drank a sip of water.

Suddenly, a scream sounded in Rose's ears like thunder, Rose turned his head sharply to look out, the rain was so heavy that the sound of raindrops hitting the window masked everything, Rose frowned, listened quietly for a moment, and just when he thought he had misheard, a very thin pop made Rose stand up, the sound was so familiar to him, he could almost imagine the picture of blood spilling out of his neck after that sound.

Rose got up a little too much, knocked on the stool, Chrissy rubbed her eyes, leaned her slippers against the bedroom door frame and asked, "What's wrong?" Rose shook her head, turned around and smiled at his wife and said, "It's okay, I just heard the sound of the wind blowing the boat away, I'll go out and have a look"

Chrissy nodded and said, "Go out and dress more, come back early"

Rose nodded, put on the poncho and opened the door and walked out.

There are many times when there are things that you do for the last time, and there are things that you see for the last time, but we didn't know at the time, and Ross didn't know either.

As soon as Rose went out, his keen hearing made him keenly hear the crying and screaming from the direction of the town in the pouring rain, Rose hurriedly ran towards the town, Rose stopped as soon as he entered the town, the town was in a mess, most of the houses were burning with fire, the flames were burning more and more under the heavy rain, but the town was empty, the screams were not coming from here, Rose ran to the other side of the town, the blood stains along the way were shocking, just as Rose ran out of the town, the two bodies were lying on the beach, Rose could see at a glance that it was Jerry and Charlie, Rose had just bought salt in Jerry's hands at noon。

Rose knelt beside Jerry and turned his body over, Rose's eyes widened suddenly, and an extremely long cut open Jerry's neck, Jerry's eyes opened angrily, and Rose could see Jerry's great fear before he died in the dilated pupils.

In fact, from the thick and huge blood stains on the beach under Jerry and Charlie, Rose knew that the two were more than lucky.

Rose stood up, the raindrops hit his face, converging into small streams, Rose's vision was a little blurred, but he could still see the circle of men in black who were standing like wings not far away in the rain, the corpses in that place, and the villagers who were kneeling in front of the man in black in front of a person in a robe.

Rose felt a surge of blood rush through his head, and he rushed at the group like crazy, shouting "Hey!"

The man in the middle of the man in black not far away, hunched over, holding a black knife, he pinched the woman who was kneeling in front of him with his hand, the woman was convulsing, the huge fear in his eyes made the man's smiling lips crack bigger and bigger, the woman kept shaking her head, and the trembling voice kept being squeezed out of the throat cavity "Release... Let me go... Beg... Please"

The man shrieked, the laughter was as piercing as a night owl across the night sky, the black dagger was smoothly compared to the woman's neck, at this moment Rose's huge shout penetrated the rain curtain, and was still deafening when it reached the man's ears, and the black-clothed people around him turned around at the same time, and the movements were uniform, but the shouting did not affect the man in the slightest, his hand did not even pause the slightest, accurately and quickly cut the woman's neck, the woman's hands were tied behind her back, she did not make the slightest sound, she fell straight to the ground, smashed into the puddle on the beach, made a snapping sound, and the woman left the world last, is the sound of blood gurgling in the throat.

The man turned his head, the sound of screaming and laughing with excitement stopped abruptly, but his lips were still exaggeratedly cracked, his eyes were completely crazy and manic and even pleasant, the rain was too heavy, his black hair was wet and stuck to his face by the rain, he stretched out a finger with the hand holding the knife, brushed away the hair, revealing another cold, cruel and crazy eye, he slowly stretched out his tongue and licked his lips.

Rose struggled to run forward, the coldness on his face was clear, the poncho had long since fallen off, every step he took could shake a sand pit on the beach, and behind his coarse linen clothes, a huge spear gun soul pattern that stretched from the spine of his neck to his back was exuding a miserable green color, lifelike.
