Scarlet Romance

Chapter 6
It was already midnight when Zhong Yuemin learned that Zhang Haiyang had been seriously injured. He put down the phone and hurried to the hospital.Zhang Haiyang's operation is in progress, outside the operating room, Li Yuanchao, Du Weidong, Lei Lei and more than a dozen people are waiting anxiously.Everyone was gnashing their teeth and discussing.

The door of the operating room finally opened. The chief surgeon walked out of the operating room exhaustedly. Li Yuanchao and others surrounded him and nervously asked Zhang Haiyang about his injury.

The chief surgeon was in his 50s and looked like a chief physician. He took off his mask and said, "There is no danger now. The injury was very serious when it was first delivered. The bladder was punctured. There was a lot of blood loss. The person was in shock. Thanks to the rescue. Timely, if you come half an hour late, you will be in danger."

Li Yuanchao and the others felt relieved.

The doctor looked at them: "I have something to ask you, are you all students?"

Zhong Yuemin replied: "Forget it."

The doctor sighed: "I've had two operations like this this week, and they were all injuries caused by fights. The child who was sent on Monday was only 16 years old, and his arm was chopped off with an ax. I don't know. I understand, what's going on these days? Why are you half-grown children acting like crazy? In fights, each one is more vicious than the other. It doesn't matter if you use a knife, and you stab at the vital point as soon as you make a move. I think I have been a doctor for more than 20 years, but I have never seen such a thing before, please tell me, who can do it like this?"

Li Yuanchao smiled cynically: "Well, of course they are class enemies. Didn't the newspapers often say that class enemies are unwilling to be reconciled to their defeat and will frantically attack the revolutionary people?"

Zhong Yuemin looked serious: "Doctor, don't worry, the revolutionaries cannot be intimidated. We got up from the ground, wiped off the blood on our bodies, buried our comrades' bodies, and then moved on."

"Yes, where there is struggle there is sacrifice, Doctor."

The doctor tried hard to control his emotions: "Okay, young people, don't be so glib, I don't think you are good students, what are you putting in your schoolbags, can't they be textbooks? I heard that young people nowadays You always carry a kitchen knife when you go out, isn’t that the case, can you open your schoolbag for me to see?”

Zhong Yuemin slickly said: "Doctor, we are soldiers, how can soldiers have no weapons, how can we protect the red country of the proletariat forever without weapons?"

Li Yuanchao changed his face again and said seriously: "Comrade doctor, you just said that you have been a doctor for more than 20 years, is that true?"

"Of course, I started my residency in 1947, so it's been 21 years now."

Li Yuanchao sneered: "Hey, it was still an old society in 1947. You worked for the Kuomintang reactionaries at that time, and your qualifications are old enough."

The doctor was angry: "What do you mean?"

Li Yuanchao said earnestly: "How can a middle-aged intellectual who came from the old society understand the youth of Mao Zedong's era? You are already behind the times, and you need to strengthen your political studies. Since you came from the old society, your It is inevitable that there will be some bourgeois muddy water, once the thought remolding is relaxed, it will slip into the bourgeois muddy pit..."

"Comrade doctor, you have to be careful, you have to think twice." Du Weidong added fuel to the side.

Zhong Yuemin also booed: "There are two roads in front of you, it is up to you to choose which way to go."

With a smirk on his face, Lei said, "We will slap you on the back and shout, 'Comrade, come back to Chairman Mao's revolutionary line, we welcome you with open arms...'"

The doctor was so angry that he trembled all over: "I... I don't think you are students, you are simply a group of... hooligans."

Zhong Yuemin and the others laughed triumphantly as if they had received some praise.

Zhong Yuemin made an invitation gesture to the doctor: "What a noble title, we accept your application, and from now on, you will be our comrade."

The doctor yelled, "Get out... get out..."

Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun spent the whole night in the police station for inspection, and were released the next morning.They didn't sleep all night, and came to Zhong Yuemin yawning. They happened to meet Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun sitting in the living room of Zhong Yuemin's house and chatting. They were listening to Zhong Yuemin's story about Zhang Haiyang's injury.

When Zheng Tong told everyone about being arrested at the police station last night, Zhong Yuemin, Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun all burst into laughter. Everyone finally found a topic and began to taunt Yuan Jun, who looked ashamed.

Zhong Yuemin patted Yuan Jun on the shoulder: "Yuan Jun, I really understand your mood at that time, that is, you were dazzled for a while, and you regarded that silly girl as the goddess in your heart. You must have a very pure and sacred feeling at that time." ,is not it?"

Yuan Jun had an innocent face: "Dude, don't you have a lot of time to spare, just to make fun of you."

Zheng Tong laughed and said: "Yuan Jun really lost his eyes at that time. In fact, that silly girl is not very good-looking. She has a long neck and short legs. She looks like a dinosaur. I don't know what happened. In Yuan Jun's eyes, she became a girl." Fairy. I can't see it and persuade him a few words, this grandson seems to be possessed by a demon, and he wants to turn against me."

Zhou Xiaobai said: "You deserve it! It's time for the Public Security Bureau to deal with people like you. Seeing girls chasing after you like a mad dog, what's wrong?"

Yuan Jun didn't like to hear it anymore: "Xiaobai, you are wrong. I learned all my tricks from Zhong Yuemin. Why don't you talk about him? This is obviously a kind of protection. Zhong Yuemin cannot be just because you and Zhong Yuemin are good. He has become a good person. If we say that we are a gang of gangsters, then Zhong Yuemin is the leader of the gangsters. You see, even a pure girl like you was dragged into the water by him."

Zhou Xiaobai raised his head: "Of course Zhong Yuemin is not a good guy, but he still has his own advantages. For example, he is more strategic than you in chasing girls. Unlike you, when he sees a girl, his eyes straighten and he has a smirk on his face." Get up."

Zheng Tong slapped his thigh and actively reported and exposed: "You are so right. He was like this at the time, which scared me. Can the other girl not be afraid? He also kept saying, 'Don't be afraid, there is me What', guess what the other girl said? She said, 'I'm afraid of you'."

The crowd laughed.

Zheng Tong concluded: "The main reason is that his method is too clumsy and lacks creativity. The excuse about recognizing kindergarten children is just picking up Zhong Yuemin's wisdom, and this is a dangerous game that cannot be used easily. Yuan Jun is so good, how dare you Hitting up, he insisted that he had played eagle catching chicks with others, saying that he was more like an eagle now, and his eyes would glow green when he saw a chick, but he was not yet 6 years old at the time, at most he was bald Tail quail, even the hair hasn't grown yet."

Zhou Xiaobai pulled Zhong Yuemin over: "Yuemin, Zheng Tong accidentally exposed your past misdeeds. How many times have you staged this kind of story of reuniting with kindergarten children after a long absence?"

Zhong Yuemin quickly changed the topic with a smile: "Why do you talk about me? Comrade Zhou Xiaobai, don't change the general direction of the struggle. We are living in an organization now. The main issue is to help Comrade Yuan Jun recognize his mistakes. Yuan Jun, The mistake you made this time is very serious, you must correct your attitude and deeply reflect on yourself."

"What the hell did I do wrong? Didn't I just learn from Lei Feng and do good deeds? The reason for this kind of misunderstanding is entirely because the current social atmosphere is too bad, and there is a lack of trust and love between people." Yuan Jun quibbled .

Zhou Xiaobai still persisted in asking about Zhong Yuemin's misdeeds: "Let's not talk about Yuan Jun's problem now, I am very interested in Zhong Yuemin's ability to make up stories, and I also want to know how many versions of this story there are. He used this kind of story to deceive people before me. How many girls did you have?"

As soon as everyone regained their spirits, you began to expose and criticize each other.Zheng Tong spoke first: "Although Yuemin and I are friends, I am also a person with a sense of justice and conscience. This is a principle, and I will never trade principles. Sorry, Yuemin, I have to tell the truth. Before meeting Zhou Xiaobai, Yuemin used this method to deceive women many times."

"I saw it more than a dozen times, and I didn't follow him every day, so I can't talk nonsense about what I didn't see." Yuan Jun revealed.

Luo Yun said with a smile: "Yuemin, you have to explain the historical issues carefully. We are not afraid of your history being stained, we just want to make it clear."

Zhou Xiaobai inspired: "Everyone didn't wrong you, right? Of course, you can also complain about your own problems, but you must be honest."

Zhong Yuemin touched his forehead and sighed again and again: "It's really a wall that has been pushed down by everyone, and people who have been beaten by drums have been beaten by thousands of people. Now I really understand what is meant by 'unnecessary'. I am wronged. I usually don't dare to take a second look at a sow... ..."

Yuan Jun shouted: "Shut up, you are not allowed to quibble, be more honest."

Zheng Tong raised his right arm and shouted: "Down with Zhong Yuemin! Zhong Yuemin must bow his head and plead guilty!"

Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun laughed together.

Li Kuiyong and the little bastard have been in a very bad situation since they were taken over by Zhong Yuemin and the others last time.They could not find a new foothold, so they had to temporarily settle down on the finished product yard of a cement component factory. They slept in a cement pipe with a diameter of 1 meter at night. The two lay head to head with straw under their bodies. When the wind blows, the two pull out their knives and look around nervously. It has been more than 20 days like this, and it is really miserable.

Li Kuiyong really regrets messing with the little bastard. The little bastard is the kind of person who does things regardless of the consequences. He thinks his life is cheap, never takes his own life seriously, and is ready to change his life with anyone at any time. This is typical outlaw psychology.But Li Kuiyong's situation is different from that of the little bastard. He is the pillar of the family, and his mother and a large group of younger brothers and sisters still point at him.If something happens to him, the family will collapse.Li Kuiyong was very conflicted in his heart. He was a loyal person, and he was unwilling to abandon his friend when he was in trouble, and he couldn't say it.He instinctively felt that he and the little bastard were contending against a powerful force, they were not rivals at all, it was fate.He is really tired, when will such a day be the end?
Two days ago, Li Kuiyong's mother was ill. He took his mother to the hospital in a tricycle. When he left the alley, he was surrounded by Li Yuanchao and a dozen people. Several sharp knives were pointed at Li Kuiyong's body from front to back.

The mother was trembling with fright, and she pleaded for her son in horror: "Just let him go, he is an honest boy."

Li Yuanchao snorted: "He is honest, he was selected from honest people, right?"

Li Kuiyong smiled wryly: "Li Yuanchao, isn't this boring? It would damage your reputation to engage in such a sneak attack while I was taking my mother to see a doctor."

"I just want to ask you one thing, where is the little bastard?"

"I can't say that."

A young man's knife had pierced the skin on Li Kuyong's neck, and a stream of blood flowed down.

The young man showed a fierce look: "Don't say I inserted you."

Li Kuiyong said indifferently, "Whatever you want."

Li Yuanchao waved his hand to stop his companion: "You are an unknown person, and you are not worthy to challenge me. If you intervene, I will lose my share. I, Li Yuanchao, can't afford to lose that person."

"Okay, then I'm leaving." Li Kuiyong turned to leave.

Li Yuan said with a blank face: "You tell the little bastard, if he is a man, he will meet me at the North Exhibition Square at 3:10 in the morning in three days. If he dare not go, get out of Beijing and hide away. Stop using the nickname 'little bastard', do you hear that?"

"What if he dares to come?"

Li Yuanchao smiled sullenly: "If he has the ability to run away from me again, I will get out of Beijing from now on."

"Okay, I'll tell him."

Li Yuan waved to his subordinates: "Let him go."

The fact that Li Yuanchao asked the little bastard to a duel spread all over the courtyards in the capital in a blink of an eye. There was a lot of discussion in the "veteran" circle for a while. .

The living room of Zhong Yuemin's house has been crowded with people these two days, and friends from all walks of life have come to him to discuss. In fact, he has not thought about what to do, because he cannot predict the outcome of this matter. discuss.

Zhong Yuemin believes that the little bastard has become famous in a few months, and he will do anything for his reputation.Although this kid is cunning, he is not deep in the city. He is basically a simple-minded person. This kind of person who blindly acts recklessly with the courage of a man will lose his life sooner or later.

Yuan Jun said dismissively: "He suffers because he always does things alone. With so many of us, it's not easy to deal with him?"

Zheng Tong put it bluntly: "Yuemin, I don't want to participate in this kind of thing. I think this time is different from the previous fights. If things go wrong, people will die. It's best for us not to participate."

Yuan Jun was also a little apprehensive when he heard it: "If the little bastard is gone, will Li Yuanchao really dare to kill him?"

Zhong Yuemin thought for a while and said, "That's what I'm worried about. With so many people, even if Li Yuanchao doesn't want to kill people, he may not be able to control him once he starts."

"Yuemin, this matter is no small matter, let's not get involved." Yuan Jun also retreated.

Zhong Yuemin felt very embarrassed: "You don't have to go, but I have to. Li Yuanchao's face is not easy to explain."

At this time there was a knock on the door, and Zheng Tong went to open the door, but it was Zhou Xiaobai who came in.

Zhou Xiaobai may have run too fast, and seemed out of breath: "Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong, I'm really sorry, I have something important to talk to Zhong Yuemin alone, is that okay?"

Zheng Tong blinked, and said with something in his words: "Do you mean to let us avoid it?"

Yuan Jun joked: "Actually, we won't get in your way. Whatever you want to do, we can just close our eyes. Why drive us away?"

Zhou Xiaobai was in a hurry: "I'm not joking with you, I hope you can respect me."

"Okay, okay, let's go. Yuan Jun, did you see that? Yuemin also wants us to go, and don't say a word. Let's not be an eyesore here. Do you know what it means to value sex over friends this time?" Zheng Tong boring to say.

After they left, Zhou Xiaobai and Zhong Yuemin faced each other silently. Zhong Yuemin asked with his eyes, but he never spoke.Zhou Xiaobai was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help it anymore: "Yuemin, I heard about that incident, I hope you don't go, something big will happen this time, you have to promise me."

Zhong Yuemin was silent.

"Speak, please promise me."

"This is my own business, don't worry about it." Zhong Yuemin replied bluntly.

Zhou Xiaobai said stubbornly: "I want to take care of it, you must promise me."

"Why should I promise you?"

"Because...because I...love you."

Zhong Yuemin was shocked and froze.

Zhou Xiaobai gently hugged Zhong Yuemin from behind, and put his face on his back.Zhong Yuemin remained motionless.

"Yuemin, don't you know my feelings for you?"

"I... thought you had only a good impression of me."

Zhou Xiaobai said softly: "That day in the Summer Palace, you kissed me, did I reject you?"

"No."

"That's right, because I love you, if there is no love in my heart, would I be like this?"

Zhong Yuemin looked at Zhou Xiaobai carefully, and asked suspiciously, "How could you fall in love with someone like me?"

Zhou Xiaobai sighed deeply: "I can't tell, and neither can I..."

Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun were expelled from Zhong Yuemin's house, and they were very dissatisfied.With nowhere to go, they idly sat on the steps of the compound auditorium and smoked.

Yuan Jun suddenly cheered as if he had discovered something good: "Oh, the fun is coming, see? There, Director Wang and his family's third son, hurry up, catch the bastard, and don't let him run away."

Zheng Tong also came to his spirits immediately: "Can you let him run away, beat him up."

The third child is the child of Director Wang of the Revolutionary Committee. At this time, he is walking through the grove behind the auditorium and onto the path.This child is a congenitally retarded child, stupid all day long, with a green snot always trailing under his nose.Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong like to bully the third child the most. The existence of the third child has brought endless fun to their lonely life. Therefore, when they see the third child, they are overjoyed.

Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong rushed over and pretended to hug the third child's neck affectionately: "Oh, third child, you miss us to death, why can't I find you these days?"

The third child said foolishly: "My father won't let me go out, for fear that someone will bully me."

Zheng Tong said: "Whoever dares to bully you, isn't this a boring job? Don't be afraid, third child, there are both of us. If anyone has a grudge against you, just tell us and we will clean him up for you."

Yuan Jun said with a smirk on his face: "If we both have enemies, we will tell you, you beat us up for us."

The third child raised a very practical question: "What should I do if I can't beat it?"

"We'll poke for you. You just go up and hit him. If he dares to fight back, we'll beat him." Zheng Tonghao patted his thin chest angrily.

The third child asked in disbelief, "Are you really poking me?"

Yuan Jun laughed and said, "Need to say? Don't worry, we buddies will follow whom."

Zheng Tong asked maliciously: "Third son, have your father and mother been arguing recently?"

"I haven't quarreled these days, what's the matter?"

Zheng Tong made a heart-to-heart expression: "I tell you, you must never tell others, do you hear me? You can't tell it even if you are killed."

The third child wiped his nose and nodded: "Well, I won't say anything if I kill you."

"Do you know why they quarreled? It's your father's fault. Your father has a wife, but he kept it from your mother and the fat head of the general affairs department. We ran into each other last time. Here, your father is holding that fat man in his arms, and his hands are still groping, tell me, can your mother be in a hurry?"

"Really?"

Yuan Jun said: "I lied to you that he was a grandson. Think about it. Your father is hugging a big fat man. What will your mother do? Why don't you just stay at home? This is called being a widow, do you understand?"

"don't know."

Zheng Tong scolded: "You idiot, why don't you understand what I told you? Let me tell you, your father is a leading cadre, and you will make mistakes if you continue like this. Do you want your father to make mistakes?"

"I don't want to, what do you say?"

Yuan Jun urged: "It's easy to handle. If you see that fat man again, go up and give her two big ears and tell her, 'If you seduce my dad again, I'll beat you again'."

The third child hesitated: "What if the fat man hits me?"

Yuan Jun glared: "She dares, we poked you. After you finish beating the fat man, report this to your mother, and your mother will praise you."

The third child nodded and wiped his nose.

Zheng Tong warned: "Remember, you can only tell your mother after the fight, don't talk about it first."

"Well, let's talk about it after the fight."

Zheng Tongzhao kicked the third child's ass: "You go, we will wait for you."

The third child is gone.

Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun were so happy that they fell into the grass...

At Zhong Yuemin's house, Zhou Xiaobai was leaning against Zhong Yuemin, she tilted her head and stared at Zhong Yuemin and said, "When I first met you, I thought you guys were hooligans, especially hooligans."

"Then how did you change your mind?"

"Then I found out that you're not that bad, you're just pretending to be bad, and sometimes it's cute. You know what? I was taken aback when you talked about how you felt about music the other day. I thought, a right A person who is so sensitive to music must be a person with a rich heart, probably since that day, I have cared about you."

"Xiaobai, if you have concerns, I will be miserable, and someone who cares about me will appear for no reason."

"What's the matter with you? I'm going to take care of you. Who told you to recruit me? He's skating well there. You insist on pestering him. Do you regret it now?"

"I don't regret it, but... are you women particularly keen on pointing at others?"

Zhou Xiaobai said seriously: "You're wrong. I'm not interested in caring about others. I just want to prevent you from participating in fights. I really don't understand why a boy with an artistic temperament is so keen on fighting?"

Zhong Yuemin smiled: "Didn't Yuan Jun say that I am a poet with a kitchen knife? Yes, he is right."

Zhou Xiaobai stroked his hand lightly: "Yuemin, you promised me?"

"Promise what?"

"Don't go there, okay?"

"No, I must go." Zhong Yuemin suddenly became tough.

Zhou Xiaobai begged: "I beg you, can't you?"

Zhong Yuemin said solemnly: "Xiaobai, I promise you that after this matter is over, I will never fight again, but this time I must go."

Zhou Xiaobai lost his temper: "I am in this position in your heart? Now please choose, do you choose me or your cronies?"

"You make me difficult, I admit, I like you, but I can't abandon my friends."

"Okay, Zhong Yuemin, listen well, from now on, we'll pretend we never knew each other, and I'm leaving." Zhou Xiaobai turned to leave.

"You stop." Zhong Yuemin growled.

Zhou Xiaobai stopped in his tracks.

"Zhou Xiaobai, listen to me too. I, Zhong Yuemin, have never been threatened by others. It's best not to use your young lady's temper on me..." Zhong Yuemin slammed a cup on the ground.

Tears rolled down Zhou Xiaobai's eyes, she walked out without looking back.

Zhou Xiaobai ran into Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong who had just finished playing a prank at the gate of the compound. She ignored her and ran away wiping her tears, leaving them confused.

"What wronged this girl? Is it Yuemin..." Yuan Jun guessed.

Zhong Yuemin opened the door for them with a gloomy face.

Yuan Jun smiled and said, "I saw Zhou Xiaobai walking away wiping his tears, what's going on, did you offend him by plotting something wrong?"

Zheng Tong also asked with a smirk: "You've got your hands on someone, have you succeeded?"

Yuan Junyu said earnestly: "Dude, you are too impatient."

Zhong Yuemin was very irritable: "Let me tell you, whoever makes this kind of joke with me in the future, don't blame me for turning against me."

"Look, look, I get anxious while talking, it's really boring."

Zhong Yuemin's face was so gloomy that it was frightening: "Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong, I have a bad feeling. I'm afraid something big will happen this time. Don't go."

"Then don't go either, neither of us will go."

"I have to go, otherwise Li Yuanchao won't be able to explain. Also, I'm most worried about Li Kuiyong. Although I have turned against him, I can't ignore the thought that he might die because of this." Zhong Yuemin made up his mind without hesitation.

"Yuemin, you must be careful, I hope nothing happens." Zheng Tong said worriedly.

Li Kuiyong could never forget the last night he spent with the little bastard.That night, the little bastard smoked cigarettes one after another with a calm demeanor. Li Kuiyong argued with him for a long time, but no one convinced the other in the end.Li Kuiyong thought that the meeting with Li Yuanchao this time must be more or less auspicious, and he suggested that the little bastard should not go to the appointment.But the little bastard stubbornly insisted on his own opinion. He believed that few "veterans" dared to risk their lives. Yes, with his bearish appearance, I really don't believe that he dared to kill someone.

The little bastard said: "Kui Yong, it's time to end the matter between me and Li Yuanchao. We can't afford to drag it on like this, so that you don't even dare to go home. I hope to have a solo practice with Li Yuanchao, no matter who it is If you lose, just make peace and forget it, no matter how big things are in the world, they will come to an end."

Li Kuiyong snorted disapprovingly: "How do you know that Li Yuanchao dare not kill you? Besides, he won't practice alone with you. He relies on a large number of people. Is it worth it for him to do it himself? These 'veterans' haven't After suffering such a big loss, even if they dare not kill you, they will maim you, not to mention that the Public Security Bureau is also looking for you, the 'veteran' let you go, the Public Security Bureau will not spare you, I think you should go hide for a while Bar."

The little bastard shook his head: "At this point, Li Yuanchao and I have no way out. Neither of us can afford to lose face. Sooner or later we will face each other head-on. Tomorrow is life or death. I have no choice but to stay with you to the end. Kui Yong, if you are afraid of trouble, don't go tomorrow."

Li Kuiyong was most afraid of others saying that he was timid and fearful, so he became furious: "Don't talk about it, I will accompany you tomorrow, isn't he just Li Yuanchao, he is not superhuman, who is afraid of anyone?"

Li Kuiyong only remembered that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet that night, and he could not even hear the usual noisy frogs. The little bastard didn't seem to be sleeping well. Li Kuiyong woke up in the middle of the night and found that the little bastard was turning over constantly...

That night, Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun had no premonition about the imminent murder. They were bent on finishing the day's pranks. At this time, they were lying under a lighted window, covering their mouths and out of breath. Lower your breath.

The sound of broken porcelain came from the window, and Director Wang's voice was a little out of breath: "You bastard, tell me, why did you beat the fat aunt?"

The sound of slaps and slaps came from the room, and the youngest cried loudly.

A female voice with a very high pitch yelled: "Why are you beating the child? Are you out of breath after the scandal is revealed?"

"You are talking nonsense, I am not afraid of the shadow, I am innocent..."

"Forget it, the words are better than the songs. After so many years, I still don't know you? I always eat from the bowl and look at the pot. If you say you, you can't find someone. You have to find Zhu Bajie, a woman. You are slimmer than her, but you don't choose what to eat, you have to get a handful of everything that pigs don't eat and dogs don't eat..."

Director Wang was furious: "You fucking fart..."

There was the sound of slapping in the house.

"Wang, you dare to hit me? It's against you! You hit, you hit, today my old lady risked her life to fight with you..."

There was a commotion in the room.

Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun covered their mouths, stumbled and disappeared into the darkness.

That night, Zhong Yuemin didn't sleep well either. He had a nightmare first. He dreamed that Li Kuiyong was standing in front of him covered in blood. Weeping helplessly around his corpse... Zhong Yuemin woke up from the nightmare, his heart was beating wildly, and his whole body was drenched in cold sweat. He felt an unprecedented terror, and muttered to himself: "Kui Yong , I beg you, okay? Don't go tomorrow..."

Li Yuanchao stood alone on the square with two people. He specially wore a white tussah silk military uniform today, looking elegant.He lit a cigarette calmly and looked around casually.The streets near the square seemed very calm, and pedestrians hurried past without any abnormalities. A No. 15 bus drove past the square and turned west into the main station of the zoo.Two armed soldiers wearing armbands on duty in the Beijing Garrison walked past the square. They were performing normal patrol duties. Who would have expected that a bloody murder that would shake the capital would happen soon...

Zhong Yuemin didn't sleep well last night. When he woke up in the morning, it was already 9:40 in the morning. He got on his bicycle and sped away. Unexpectedly, he just rode to the intersection of Wanwanzhuang, and a bicycle rushed straight towards him. Coming over, Zhong Yuemin didn't pay attention and was knocked down to the ground.He couldn't help being furious: "Who the hell is so short-sighted and impatient to live?" with him.Zhong Yuemin understood Zhou Xiaobai's intentions, and he angrily pushed his bicycle to leave. Zhou Xiaobai grabbed Zhong Yuemin's bicycle and did not let go, and the two were at a stalemate.

Zhong Yuemin broke out: "Zhou Xiaobai, let go, who are you to me? You must meddle in my business."

Zhou Xiaobai said without showing any weakness: "I am your girlfriend, so I will take care of it."

"You don't care, get out..."

Zhou Xiaobai begged: "Unless you beat me to death, I will not let go, Yuemin, I beg you."

Zhong Yuemin picked up the spring lock hanging on the handlebar and threatened: "If you don't release it, I will smash it."

"You fight, you fight, you fight if you can." Zhou Xiaobai played tricks.

Zhong Yuemin raised the spring lock as a threat, but Zhou Xiaobai gently closed his eyes.Zhong Yuemin put down the car lock helplessly...

At this time, the little bastard and Li Kuiyong were walking side by side into the North Exhibition Square step by step.

Li Yuanchao stared at the little bastard expressionlessly, and lit the cigarette on his mouth with a lighter.

The little bastard and Li Yuanchao stopped a few meters away, and they looked at each other quietly.The atmosphere became more and more tense, and the air seemed to stop flowing.On several streets near the square, many figures in military uniforms suddenly appeared, and these figures were silently gathering here, slowly forming an encircling circle.

The little bastard said calmly: "Li Yuanchao, I'm here, you and I can make a break today."

Li Yuanchao threw the cigarette butt away: "I thought you would bring a helper, why, just the two of you?"

"Originally, I wanted to meet you alone, but my friend insisted on coming with me. That's fine. Let Kui Yong be a witness. The grievances between you and me have nothing to do with him."

Li Yuanchao said softly, "Since you're here, I'm afraid no one will be able to leave."

The little bastard showed no fear on his face: "Li Yuanchao, if you are a man, you can practice one-on-one with me and let everyone else get out of the way."

Li Yuanchao sneered and shook his head: "We people don't like to show off the bravery of ordinary people, that's what simple-minded people do. Little bastard, are you scared?"

"If I'm afraid, I won't come. Let me tell you, if you kill me today, it's fine. If you leave me alone, I'll kill you next time."

Li Yuanchao's complexion changed suddenly, and Lei yelled in the crowd: "Yanchao, don't talk nonsense with him, everyone..." The "veterans" had already blushed, and they all drew their knives and surrounded them.

The little bastard drew out his knife and rushed towards Li Yuanchao. Li Yuanchao took a few steps back and his companions protected him.

The little bastard and Li Kuiyong held their knives back to back and put on a desperate posture. Lei Lei and others surrounded them and approached them step by step with their knives.

At this time, Zhong Yuemin and Zhou Xiaobai were still in a stalemate at the Wanwanzhuang intersection about two streets away.

Zhong Yuemin was helpless and anxious.His tone softened: "Xiaobai, let go, don't delay my important business."

Zhou Xiaobai was so anxious that he was about to cry: "Yuemin, I beg you not to go, even if it's for me, okay?"

Zhong Yuemin angrily broke Zhou Xiaobai's hand holding the bicycle tightly, Zhou Xiaobai lowered his head and bit Zhong Yuemin's hand, and he withdrew his hand in pain.Zhong Yuemin was really anxious, he couldn't care less, picked up the spring lock and knocked it on Zhou Xiaobai's hand gently.Zhou Xiaobai cried out in pain, and subconsciously withdrew her hand.Zhong Yuemin got on the bike and ran away, but Zhou Xiaobai missed him, and Zhong Yuemin ran away.

Zhou Xiaobai cried out in despair: "Zhong Yuemin, you bastard..."

On the square, the bloody fighting has entered a state of feverishness.The little bastard and Li Kuiyong brandished knives in an attempt to take the road away, but Li Yuanchao and others would not let them go, they chased across the road in a swarm.

The little bastard and Li Kuiyong had just crossed the road and were stopped by a group of people. The two rushed left and right, fighting a trapped beast.

The little bastard, who had been stabbed several times in his body, was still fighting back with the knife in his hand. He was covered in blood, staggering, and gradually exhausted...

Li Kuiyong was also stabbed in the abdomen. He clutched the intestines protruding from his abdomen and staggered in an attempt to cut a trail of blood. When the knife flashed, he was stabbed again in the shoulder, and blood gushed out...

The little bastard kept getting stabbed, and he waved the knife in his hand in vain.

Li Kuiyong's field of vision was spinning, and the background of the sky at the spire of the exhibition hall turned blood red... The little bastard, who lost his strength, was stabbed repeatedly, and the pursuer stabbed the little bastard viciously, his body was in the light of the knife It convulsed violently, and finally collapsed.

Li Kuiyong was still running staggeringly, with several pursuers chasing after him.At this time, Zhong Yuemin arrived on his bicycle, and he shouted hoarsely: "Kui Yong, I am Zhong Yuemin, jump on my car..."

Li Kuiyong used his last bit of strength to jump onto the rear rack of Zhong Yuemin's bicycle, and lay his head powerlessly on Zhong Yuemin's back.Zhong Yuemin pedaled his bicycle desperately to avoid his pursuers. A pursuer threw a kitchen knife at Zhong Yuemin. The kitchen knife rolled in the air and passed over Zhong Yuemin's head... He finally fled away with Li Kuiyong.

Li Yuanchao's subordinates were red-eyed and pushed their bicycles to chase after him. Li Yuanchao waved his hand to stop them: "You can see clearly, it is Zhong Yuemin..."

Zhong Yuemin found a phone in the corridor outside the operating room. His hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't insert his fingers into the dial hole for a long time. Zhou Xiaobai's voice finally came from the phone: "Hello, who is it?"

"Xiaobai, it's me, listen to me..." Zhong Yuemin said incoherently.The phone was hung up, and there was a buzzing sound from the handset.

Zhong Yuemin stubbornly dialed the dial again.

"Xiaobai, don't hang up, I have something urgent to ask for your help..."

There was no sound from the microphone, Zhou Xiaobai was silent.

"Xiaobai, are you listening?"

Zhou Xiaobai said calmly, "Go ahead."

"I'm in the hospital. My friend is seriously injured and is being rescued. I need money. Can you lend me some money? I will definitely pay you back. Please help me, please."

Zhou Xiaobai sighed for a long time: "I'll go right away."

Zhong Yuemin sat down with relief.

The massacre that occurred in Beijing in June 1968 shocked all the recalcitrants in the capital.In the past, recalcitrants regarded fighting as a fashionable activity, and they rarely killed people. Even the occasional deaths were caused by mistakes. Recalcitrants had no motive for killing in their subjective consciousness. It was a bloody case, but it was a veritable murder case.After the forensic examination, the little bastard was stabbed dozens of times and died on the spot.Li Kuiyong was seriously injured. He was stabbed in the chest, causing pneumothorax, his abdomen was punctured, and his intestines and other internal organs leaked out of his body. If he hadn't been rescued in time, he would have died.Although the little bastard was full of crimes and blood and debts, but after all, human life was at stake, so the Public Security Bureau acted quickly, and dozens of people including Li Yuanchao were arrested.Don't look at these "veterans" who are usually arrogant and arrogant, but few of them have the experience of going to prison. Once faced with experienced interrogators, few can handle it, so they denounced each other one after another. Many people were arrested.The "veterans" in the capital were silent for a while, some fled to other places to take refuge, and some simply washed their hands in the golden basin and became good children again.

Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong, Yuan Jun and others also received the attention of the Public Security Bureau. On the third day after the massacre, Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong, Yuan Jun and others were talking in the living room when two policemen came to the door.

After carefully questioning their names and addresses, the police quickly looked at the notebook in their hands and said that the names of Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong, Yuan Jun and others were not unfamiliar at all. Although they had never seen them before, they had already been heard , today is an opportunity to have a good talk.

When Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun saw the policemen coming in, they wanted to escape with an excuse, but they didn't expect that the two policemen were very enthusiastic to keep them, and they sat down helplessly.Zheng Tong had a sweet mouth, and opened his mouth to call "police uncle". A policeman felt uncomfortable and stopped him quickly: "Don't, don't call me uncle, it makes me feel uncomfortable. Let's keep a little distance."

Zheng Tong has an honest child's expression: "Okay, then I will not be big or small, and I will not be polite. Comrade police, we are all honest children and have never dealt with you. By the way, I seem to be on I dealt with you once when I was in the first grade of elementary school."

The policeman asked attentively, "Huh? What happened to you when you were in the first grade?"

"It's like this. I picked up a penny on the side of the road, and I happened to meet a traffic policeman. I handed the money to the policeman without saying a word. At that time, the policeman praised me so much that I blushed, saying that I don't care about picking up money. It's really Chairman Mao. good boy..."

The policeman knew that he had been fooled: "Okay, okay, you don't need to talk anymore, let's get down to business. You probably have heard that many people have been involved in the murder case in Beizhan Square this time. According to reports, You are all involved in this matter, and we are here today to verify this matter."

Yuan Jun said: "Comrade policeman, you are really flattering me. I am naturally timid. To tell you the truth, I usually hide away when my father and mother fight. My father likes to throw teapots. My mother likes to copy broom pimples, and as soon as she hits our house, the chickens fly like dogs, it's so fucking scary..."

As long as Zhong Yuemin has no reason to be caught, he always likes to joke with the police. He said mysteriously: "You must have made a mistake. We are all well-known good boys in this area. These days We are waiting for distribution, there is really nothing to do, and we are idle, so we discussed and established an organization..."

A policeman immediately noticed: "Well, an organization was established? Okay, let's talk about this. What organization did you establish? Who is the leader?"

Zhong Yuemin pretended to be modest: "I'm sorry, they chose me as the leader, and I didn't refuse. Our organization is called the 'Volunteer Team for Helping the Elderly and the Young'. It stands on the street to help the elderly and children cross the road. Our organization was established in two In the past few months, everyone has worked very hard. Except for Comrade Yuan Jun who sometimes complains and thinks that he is at a disadvantage, the others have performed well. Of course, we have also criticized and educated Comrade Yuan Jun’s wrong ideas..."

The policeman interrupted him: "Zhong Yuemin, I understand what you mean. You are learning from Lei Feng to do good deeds every day, isn't that so? That's strange. As far as I know, you guys are well-known young men in this area. Hooligans, fighting, grabbing hats, stripping clothes, everything, otherwise, why would I ask you, I will not be full, right?!"

Zheng Tong interjected: "Comrade police, you can't just listen to the nonsense of the gang of small-footed detectives from the street neighborhood committee. Let them talk."

A policeman took a closer look at Zheng Tong and said: "I think you can say here, the small mouth is very good, then let me ask you, what were you doing around 5:11 on the [-]th? Please recall in detail .”

"I helped my mother cook at home that day, and then my mother asked me to buy soy sauce. When I came back after buying soy sauce, I saw two old men playing chess at the bottom of the wall. I owe it to you to give an old man a trick. I won at once, and the other old man quit. He insisted on me to play a game with me. I had no choice but to play with him. Later, I gave the old man an afterthought. The old man's veteran couldn't move It’s too late, the old man wanted to regret chess. At this time, I quit and quarreled with the old man, and I said, ‘You regretted chess at such an age, are you embarrassed? Just set an example for us young people...'”

The policeman said impatiently: "Okay, okay, just keep it simple, you said you were playing chess with the old man at noon that day, didn't you?"

"Yes, I won the first round. The old man was so anxious to lose that he refused to let me go. I won two more rounds in a row before going home. As soon as I got home, my mother picked up the spatula and wanted to beat me, saying I waited for more than two hours for soy sauce..."

The policeman was really annoyed: "I said why are you so poor? You don't need to say any more, let me ask you, who can prove that you were playing chess at that time?"

"The old man, he can prove it."

"Where does the old man live and what is his name?"

"Oh, I don't know that. Who asks the opponent's name and address before playing chess? Isn't this sick? Anyway, the old man often basks in the sun at the bottom of the wall. You have to wait there, maybe you can Hit."

The policeman said: "Okay, you can sign it, I can warn you, if you don't tell the truth, you will bear all the consequences."

Zheng Tong carefully looked at the conversation record: "Hey, why are you a typo? The word 'Zhao' in 'Zhi Zhao'er' should have a handle next to it. You are the 'Zhao' of 'Summoning', and... Your word is too handsome, why don’t I recognize it? It’s like Arabic.”

The police got angry: "Where are you talking so much nonsense? I warn you, if you are poor and poor, I will sue you for obstructing official duties!"

Zhong Yuemin leaned over: "Should I say it?"

A policeman flipped through his notebook and said, "We have roughly grasped your case. According to Li Yuanchao and others, you went late that day. When you arrived, Li Kuiyong was seriously injured. He jumped onto your bicycle to escape Yu Yi died, is that so?"

"This is basically the truth, but I didn't go to fight that day. I heard that someone was going to fight in Beizhan Square. I wanted to stop it, but I ran into Li Kuiyong. It flew over my scalp, scared me so much that I almost peed my pants. However, this is still a life-saving, comrade, this should be regarded as an act of righteousness, right? Can your Public Security Bureau give me a pennant? There are eight words written on it That's enough - fearless in the face of danger, the true colors of a hero..."

"What are you thinking, our Public Security Bureau sent you a pennant? You really don't think you are an outsider. Let me tell you, we are here to check with you today. If you hide something, I might give you a pair of handcuffs. Before our investigation is over, you are not allowed to go anywhere, and you must be on call, we may find you at any time, do you hear me?"

Zhong Yuemin bowed his head and said, "I am willing to accept the review of the organization. I understand the party's policies. I will never wrong a good person or let a bad person go, right?"

The two policemen stood up and closed their notebooks.

Yuan Jun suddenly felt left out, why no one paid attention to him?He didn't take him too seriously.

He stood up courteously and said, "Comrade policeman, why didn't you ask me? I just wanted to report to you what I was doing that day."

"You really didn't go that day, we know that. However, Yuan Jun, you are not just a bird. I heard your name many times during the interrogation. Although you were not at the scene that day, you are also implicated in this matter. You Let’s talk about the problem later. In short, you must ensure that you are on call, and if you cannot be found, you will be punished as absconding in fear of crime, and you all know the consequences.”

Zheng Tong asked: "Then what about our 'Volunteer Team for Helping the Elderly and Bringing the Children'? Are we allowed to learn from Lei Feng? This is easy to cause misunderstandings. It is obvious that we are going out to do good deeds, but we are given the notoriety of absconding in fear of crime. You really let us Difficult."

"Zheng Tong, are you poor and poor? Don't think that we can't do anything about you. To tell you the truth, you have already registered with the police station for these few pieces of material. You are indispensable for any bad things. I will put the ugly words first. , if I get some evidence next time, I won't be so polite."

The older policeman taught him a lesson: "Don't be careless, this murder case has shocked the whole city. Li Yuanchao is too courageous. Even if the little bastard deserves to be killed, it is the government's business. If he was turned away then When you go to the Public Security Bureau, Li Yuanchao and the others will still be rewarded, but they actually killed the little bastard, and now the nature has changed. You should think about it carefully and learn a lesson from this case."

Zhong Yuemin and others sent the two policemen to the door and bid farewell graciously: "You are really a good policeman of the people. Seeing that we are all on the edge of the cliff, he leaned out to grab us regardless of personal safety. How much is the problem?" , Maybe we didn’t save it and we fell down ourselves. I really should thank you very much. You don’t know, my dad usually says I’m stuck in the neck, but what you said today, it’s in my heart. , My heart is warm and warm. I know that the party and the people will not abandon us. You two go well, I will not see you off, goodbye! Goodbye...fuck you, go play."

Zhong Yuemin closed the door, and the three laughed triumphantly.

Li Kuiyong woke up after being in a coma for a whole day and night. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Zhong Yuemin, Zhou Xiaobai, Yuan Jun, and Zheng Tong standing beside the hospital bed.

Zhong Yuemin held his hand: "Kui Yong, you finally woke up. I was scared to death. You have been in a coma for a whole day and night. I'm really afraid that you won't wake up. Don't talk, listen to me."

Li Kuiyong nodded slightly.

Zhong Yuemin said softly: "Look, you have seen both Zheng Tong and Yuan Jun. This is Zhou Xiaobai, my girlfriend."

Zhou Xiaobai nodded to Li Kuyong: "Hi, please rest assured to recover from your injuries. Yuemin's friends are my friends, and we will help you."

Li Kuiyong nodded.

Seeing that Li Kuiyong was out of danger, Zhong Yuemin finally felt relieved, so he joked again: "Thanks to Xiaobai this time, if she hadn't stolen her father's money, we wouldn't have been able to make up so much money in a while." Pay your surgery fee. Xiaobai is really a master, and stole her father's wallet in one shot."

Zhou Xiaobai said coquettishly, "Fuck you, that's the money my dad put in the drawer. Who do you think stole the wallet?"

Zheng Tong interjected: "Of course it can't be called stealing, it's so ugly, it should be called 'Shun', which is much more pleasing to the ear."

In the past few days, Zhong Yuemin thought a lot. He remembered the childhood friendship between him and Li Kuiyong, and wondered why he had to fight all day long, as if he was possessed by a demon.He had already promised Zhou Xiaobai that he would never participate in such fights again, because he suddenly felt very boring, completely boring.

Zhong Yuemin held Li Kuiyong's hand, and he only said: "Kuiyong, we are still friends, right?"

Li Kuiyong nodded, and shook Zhong Yuemin's hand vigorously, with tears in his eyes...
