Chapter 173 Innocent Death, Responsibility

When she said this, her body was still shaking, and I felt uncomfortable. If we hadn't dug up nine skulls in the past, the matter would not have developed like this. Looking back at the bodies of the three police officers on the hospital bed , I wished I could cut myself, and when I turned my head, Mengluo's whole body was shaking, his shoulders were shrunk together, as if his body was going to be folded, I took his hand: "Go back, Tao Ran, I leave this to you... Take care of yourself."

Tao Ran waved his hand, I took Mengluo out and got into the car, Mengluo burst into tears suddenly, I expected him to cry loudly, my own nose was sore, tears flowed down uncontrollably, the three A police officer is only 25 or [-] years old. During the day, he is still a lively young man, but at night he becomes a dead body. How will their family and friends accept this reality?Tears slid down my face, I wiped them away immediately, sniffed: "Damn, we are sinners."

Meng Luo was still crying, buried his head in his arms and sobbed. He never looked up. My eyes were blurred and I took a deep breath. I had no intention of leaving. I looked at the hospital stupidly. After an hour, a group of people came. They were wearing casual clothes, but their aura was right there. You could tell who they were at a glance. They quietly entered the hospital. The last one to get off was Team Leader Wen. Hwaseong was pushing a wheelchair. When we arrived at our car, Hwaseong looked over, the street lights were dim, we couldn't see his eyes clearly, but we clearly felt his disgust...

He turned his head and continued to go to the hospital. Through the glass of the car, I felt hostility, and so did Mengluo. He looked out the window stupidly: "Lin Tianyi, we will go to hell after we die, King Yama will not let us go , let us go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire."

"We'll talk about after death." I said, "There's something wrong with this. Is it that guy? If he can't kill us, he also wants to make us indirect murderers. That's his purpose."

Meng Luo gave a chill, and his eyes were red again. I finally stepped on the accelerator: "Let's go."

When we came home, Lao Jiu was drinking beer alone in the living room. There were several empty cans on the floor that were crushed. Lao Jiu just got a little drunk. When he saw us coming back, he laughed: "Where did you go?"

"Old Jiu..." I sat on the sofa and rubbed my hands together: "Something happened."

Lao Jiu seemed to be in a good mood. Hearing this, he suddenly sat up from the sofa: "What's the matter?"

I told the story of the police station and the hospital one by one. Lao Jiu’s eyes narrowed first and then widened. He must have felt a cold wind on the back of his head, because he subconsciously touched the back of his head: "How could there be such a thing?" This kind of thing, Lin Tianyi, you, you go farther away."

He pushed me away violently, this action hurt my self-esteem, I said weakly: "If something happens, my temples will explode right now, and my brains will be sprayed on your face, why wait until now?"

Lao Jiu drank the remaining beer in one gulp: "The three of us became murderers..."

Munro sighed and wiped his face: "I'm going to wash my face."

"This guy must have gone to the bathroom to cry in secret." Lao Jiu said, "That guy is really vicious, Lin Tianyi, he must be that guy!"

"I think so too, but this guy hides himself tightly and doesn't show his feet." I annoyed: "We still have other things to do, what happened to the things you went to check, received my Have you texted?"

I have to use other things to divert my attention, otherwise, the faces of those three men who are about the same age as me will keep appearing in front of my eyes, making me feel uneasy, "Got it, there are really many different schools of fighting now, to put it bluntly Now, where is there any sect now, the entry threshold for this line of work is low, you just have to be brave, people from all religions and streams have poured in, and there are even many ordinary people in the countryside who secretly do it, and they are descendants of the four authentic sects who recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors Very few." Lao Jiu said.

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing?" I asked.

"Good thing, it's much easier to find it this way." Lao Jiu said, "By the way, I didn't answer your call later. What's the matter?"

"Wu Qingfeng, it's here." I said in a deep voice.

Lao Jiuchu didn't realize it at first, and when he did, he immediately scolded: "Fuck me, didn't he die in an accident, Lin Tianyi, did you see a ghost in broad daylight?"

"I don't know what's going on." I said emphatically, "We will meet in a tea house at [-] o'clock tomorrow night."

"Then go to sleep." Lao Jiu said solemnly: "Everyone is unhappy, but we can't be a coward. Even if people scold to death, things have already happened."

It’s true that which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted, my heart is throbbing, and I said angrily: “I’m going to sleep first.”

When I passed the bathroom, Munro still locked himself in it, and vaguely heard the suppressed crying from inside, I sighed and went back to my room, lit a cigarette, did not smoke, and let it burn to my own Finger, I just threw it into the trash can, looking at the star-like sparks, I felt very melancholy...

I don't know how they spent the night. I was really uncomfortable. I tossed and turned all night. In my dream, I saw the faces of those three young people, all smiling at me, laughing. Laughing, their mouths opened, and a long worm poked its head out of the mouth. The red contacts on the head were shining like lights on the buttocks of fireflies. The teeth in the mouth were gone, and it was full of sticky plasma. Suddenly, Two lines of blood and tears flowed down, and the flesh on his face suddenly shrank rapidly, looking dry like an old man in his seventies or eighties!

I suddenly sat up from the bed, my clothes were already wet with sweat, and I wiped off the sweat on my forehead, surrounded by a sense of powerlessness, and the three fresh lives just disappeared, if they knew that we were the ones who started it, even ghosts shouldn’t let it go I passed us, and we would not have any complaints. I went to the living room and saw Meng Luo was kneeling in front of the god-father's coffin, with his head hanging down, muttering something, and he didn't notice my existence at all.

The portrait of the godfather is still peaceful, the fragrance is lingering, that kind face is like a fairy, Meng Luo suddenly stood up, offering incense to the godfather, looking back at me, he was shocked: "You are up."

"Yeah." Looking at the dark circles under Munro's eyes, you can tell that he hasn't slept well: "You're early enough."

"I want to go to the hospital to see the situation." Monro said hesitantly.

"It's not only us, Tao Ran, but also Huacheng who are the most uncomfortable now. They brought the skull to the police station." No matter how sad, Tao Ran is suffering so much, let's go, I will go with you."

I want to explain to Lao Jiu that there is no one around him anymore, no matter what, he has been elusive recently, and he has his own way. Mengluo and I went to the hospital first. The hospital is no different from usual. Nurse, just saw us, she jumped away like a rabbit, she didn't want to see us, Munro said: "What's wrong with her?"

"There must be a relevant gag order from above, hum, this is an old fashion." I said without comment: "Let's go, go to the emergency room to see what's going on."

The emergency room was very calm. There was no blood on the three hospital beds, and the messy scene on the ground disappeared. Everything was neat and orderly. Patients, family members, and medical staff walked through the corridor from time to time. Everything was peaceful. I knew it was Tao. While admiring Ran and the others' masterpieces, they also sweated for Tao Ran, and things got serious...

Monroe and I had to turn to the police station. As soon as the car stopped in the parking lot, we saw a group of people shouting and crying, and I rolled down the window and looked over there. The characters were surrounded in the middle, one of them took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat from time to time, Tao Ran was also among them, she stood aside frowning, with a painful expression, Huacheng has been supporting an old man, this old woman is one of them The most painful one, she was lying on her stomach, crying: "My poor child, he died so unjustly, you have to tell me a reason, how did he die, how did he die? I am not married and have children, I am a white-haired person giving a black-haired person!"

Tao Ran's body shook, and he took a step forward: "Auntie..."

Huacheng immediately stopped Tao Ran and said, "Let's go in and talk first, shall we?"

Looking at the old man who was crying bitterly, I panicked. Tao Ran looked over their heads and looked at us. Our eyes met and instantly understood each other's feelings. Pain, besides pain, is still pain, Tao Ran Ran looked away, and helped another elder to go in. A group of people walked in mightily. The gate of the police station was empty, and Meng Luo said, "Shall we go in?"

"Going in now is just adding to the chaos, wait for Tao Ran to come out." I said helplessly.

The comfort work inside was in full swing, but Meng Luo and I were sitting on pins and needles. It took a full hour for the family members of the deceased to leave one by one. Watching them pass by our car, my heart ached so much that I couldn't help it, and I held the steering wheel , wishing to scratch the steering wheel, Tao Ran came out later, got into the car on his own, and sat in the back seat without saying a word.

I sighed, "Are they okay?"

"After grief comes incomprehension, then anger, and in the end we can only accept the result, pass through the suffering, and finally let time heal." Tao Ran said: "Compared with them, we are more angry and blame ourselves. Live in apology, Lin Tianyi, Meng Luo, our hands are also stained with blood, we are murderers."

Munro gasped. "It feels like it's the guy."

Tao Ran said angrily, "I know it's that guy, but where is that guy? How did we find him? Now I really want to peel his skin and drink his blood!"

"Tao Ran, this case has a great impact on you, why didn't you mention it?" I said seriously, "Both you and Hwaseong have been affected, right?"

Tao Ran raised his head suddenly, showing embarrassment, and finally squeezed out a smile: "What do you think?"
