Late at night, please give me half a cigarette

Chapter 142 I don't want to go back to the orphanage
After leaving the police station, Zhang Yan kept looking back and forth at me with her eyes, which made me shudder.

"What will happen to you by them!" Zhang Yan looked away from me, which immediately made me feel a lot easier.

"No." I shook my head, "But I really felt hopeless at the time." I said with lingering fear.

"I didn't expect you, little girl, to be so smart. You can save yourself after that." When Zhang Yan said this, the look in my eyes was full of relief, and I knew she was speaking from the bottom of her heart. .

I looked at Zhang Yan and said to her with lingering fear: "Sister Yan, in fact, I didn't even plan to come out of there alive at the time. I prepared my knife, and I thought that if it really didn't work, I would die. Nobody wants to live."

I don't know what my eyes looked like when I said this sentence, I only know that at that moment, my heart was full of hatred, like a blazing flame trying to burn everything up.

Suddenly, a cold hand caressed my cheek, which brought me back to my senses and looked at Zhang Yan.

"It's all over." Zhang Yan comforted me softly, "Go home."

"Yeah." I looked at Zhang Yan and nodded.

In this way, the cold war between Zhang Yan and I was naturally resolved. She still went to work every night, and then came back smelling of alcohol, while I was on the day shift because it was summer vacation, and studied at home at night. semester knowledge.

Later, I don’t know how it was so coincidental, when the national anti-trafficking boom caught up, the police arrested a large number of human traffickers and rescued many trafficked children and women.

Among them is the trafficker who sold me to the He family nine years ago.

It may be that there are very few people like me who have been sold by their own mothers, so even after nine years, the trafficker still has a deep memory.

So when he confessed, he was the first to confess this matter.

Now it's all right, the witnesses and the evidence are all in place, and my mother's crime of human trafficking has been convicted.

When I received this news, I didn't feel much joy in my heart, let alone excitement.

I sat on the sofa, silent, without saying a word for a long time.

Zhang Yan sat beside me, lit a cigarette naturally, then took one out of the cigarette case, and handed it to me, "Do you want to smoke?"

I glanced at the cigarette, then at Zhang Yan, and said softly, "Didn't you let me smoke?"

"Then it depends on when, aren't you depressed now! Don't drink alcohol, just smoke cigarettes, as long as you don't become addicted." Zhang Yan said, and passed the cigarette in her hand to me.

I reached out to take the cigarette, and then put it in my mouth. Zhang Yan lit it for me, and I imitated her and took a strong puff.

"Cough...cough..."

I don't know if this mouthful was too violent, or my technique was too poor, this mouthful made me cough up tears.

Seeing that I was coughing like this, Zhang Yan didn't care about me, and sat leisurely on the side smoking a cigarette. When I calmed down, she said, if you want to swim, you can't drink water, and if you want to smoke, you can't smoke.

I looked at the cigarette in my hand and asked Zhang Yan strangely, why would anyone like this one?What a pain!

Zhang Yan smiled and didn't answer me, just said, if you don't want to smoke, just throw it in the ashtray.

I threw the cigarette into the ashtray and finally went back to the sofa.

"Your mother is definitely going in this time, so what about your younger brother?" Zhang Yan looked at me and asked.

"That bastard, he's not my brother!" I gritted my teeth and said.

Now as long as I think of Zhao Jianping's face, I feel sick.

Is he really the little boy who used to pester me every day, hold my hand, and call my sister tiredly?
I still can't believe it!Zhao Jianping was so cute at that time. He said that what he liked most was that I had found a sister, and he also said that he would protect me when he grew up!
Life circumstances can really change a person.

So we've all changed.

"I'm asking you something, why are you so dazed!" Zhang Yan touched me with her arm, bringing me back to my senses.

I glanced at Zhang Yan and said I didn't know.

In fact, there are a lot of indirect evidence against Zhao Jianping, but there is no direct evidence in the chain of evidence, not to mention that in order to protect her son, my own mother insisted that she did all of this and had nothing to do with her son.

The boys who were with Zhao Jianping also said that they did follow me for a while, but it was because our siblings were at odds, and they, the older brothers, just wanted to make up with us, and then they waited until I got off work. Only then did I follow behind me, seeking a chance for reconciliation.

When the police asked me how I got from that street to the shanty town, those people unanimously said that I went there by myself.

They have no evidence to prove that I went there by myself, and likewise, I have no evidence to prove that they forcibly knocked me out and took me there.

Because there was no monitoring in that area, all the clues were cut off.

"Why can't I prove that Zhao Jianping is guilty!" I smashed the sofa under me angrily, and vented all my unhappiness on the sofa.

"He Qiu, you heard about me." Zhang Yan was leaning on the sofa, holding a cigarette, looked at me seriously, and said, "Zhao Jianping is not yet fourteen years old, no matter what crime he commits, he is fine! You should know this better than me! So even if you hold on to him now, so what? He can still get away with it. So what you have to worry about now is not that there is no evidence to convict him, but that he will rely on his own future. Revenge on you at the age of 14!"

"..."

I stared blankly at Zhang Yan. To be honest, I never thought about what she said before. I just wanted to send their mother and son to prison, so that I could completely get rid of them.

But after listening to Zhang Yan's analysis, I suddenly felt that Zhao Jianping would haunt me to take revenge on me in the future, because I felt that he would definitely do such a thing.

"Then what should I do?" I looked at Zhang Yan and asked.

"He probably doesn't know where we live, but the food stall where you work... I guess you have to resign. The best way is to prevent him from finding you," Zhang Yan said.

"But he knows where I go to school..."

"Then we have to be careful!" Zhang Yan shrugged.

In fact, what Zhang Yan said was very correct. In the next few days, because of my sudden resignation, the boss lady was short of manpower, so she wanted me to keep working for a few more days, and I would resign after she recruited people as soon as possible.

In those few days, I found that Zhao Jianping was wandering outside the restaurant, sometimes looking at me with very wrong eyes.

It may be because he also knew that this was an extraordinary period, so he just stared at me every day and didn't do anything.

After my mother was officially arrested, Zhao Jianping and I became children without guardians.

Those relatives in my family dislike us as burdens, and no one is willing to accept us, so we may face being temporarily sent to an orphanage until my mother is released from prison, or we are old.

When I got the news, it couldn't be said that it was a bolt from the blue, but it was almost there!

Orphanage, that is not a place with any fond memories for me.

Just when I was frowning, Zhang Yan pulled me happily and said, "Go, follow me to complete the formalities!"

"What procedure?" I asked inexplicably.

"What are the procedures for being your guardian!" Zhang Yan looked at me with disgust, "Sister, I'm over the age, I've asked, and it's more than enough for you to be your guardian."
