My super cowardly system

Chapter 142 Redemption
"More than ten years ago? Three-pronged alleyway?"

He Xiaofan was completely stunned, suddenly he turned his head to look at Li Rourou in surprise, and said, "Could it be that time."

Li Rourou nodded slowly, smiled again, and said, "To be precise, it should have been 15 years ago. The reason why I passed by there was because of a kidnapping case 15 years ago."

"I don't know if I was favored by God or hated by God. I was kidnapped by a group of criminals halfway, in order to coerce the police into preparing a vehicle for them to escape."

Although it has been a long time since the kidnapping case 15 years ago, He Xiaofan still has a fresh memory of that incident.

According to news reports, 15 years ago, a group of extremely vicious criminals escaped from prison. A total of four gangsters hijacked a five-year-old girl on the way.

On the way to escape, the gangsters completely ignored the lives of pedestrians and strangers on the street, because the gangsters ended up with dozens of casualties, including young people, old people, and even children.

And this little girl who was kidnapped, only five years old, naturally witnessed the whole process.

Whether it was violent or bloody, a five-year-old girl witnessed it with her own eyes.

Could it be that this five-year-old girl is actually Li Rourou?
Seeing his expression, Li Rourou smiled faintly and said, "Yes, that five-year-old girl is me."

He Xiaofan looked at her in surprise.

Li Rourou's hands trembled slightly, although she tried her best to control it, He Xiaofan still noticed it.

"Everyone knows that in the end the prisoners were caught, made public, and brought to justice, but no one knew what happened on the way to escape."

Li Rourou's eyes were blurred, no longer the original eccentricity, but a little more sadness that didn't fit her temperament.

"On the way they fled, besides me, they were planning to kidnap another child, but in the end, the child's parents found out in time and snatched the child back desperately."

"But ordinary people are no match for that gang. The child's father was eventually shot and killed by a gangster himself."

He Xiaofan: "..."

Li Rourou took a deep breath, slowed down, and continued: "At that time, I was very scared, the red blood and the smell of blood appeared in front of my eyes for the first time, and I couldn't even cry out. All that's left is a limp body."

"Seeing this, the little girl's mother also rushed up, trying to fight the gangsters, but in the end she couldn't escape bad luck, leaving the little girl alone."

"We were stuffed into the same trunk. Although the little girl was young, she was extremely mature. She told me in the trunk that I would help her attract attention later, and she would take the opportunity to grab the gangster's gun. .”

"However, at that time, I was so scared that I didn't even have the strength to stand up. There was only endless fear."

Speaking of this, Li Rourou paused for the first time.

He Xiaofan sighed helplessly.

For a five-year-old girl, such a reality is a bit too cruel.

"and then?"

Unconsciously, He Xiaofan's voice seemed to become gentler.

Although he didn't want the girl to recall that painful past again, it would sometimes be a relief to speak out what had been buried deep in his heart.

At some point, two teardrops slid down her cheeks, and she choked up and said, "Then when the gangsters got out of the car and were about to rest and go to the bathroom, the little girl cut off the knot that bound her and me with the utility knife hidden in her body. The rope in your hand, look towards the man standing on the edge of the cliff to go to the toilet."

"She gave me a look and asked me to attract the attention of the other three people, but I stretched out my hand, but I couldn't move."

She took a deep breath again, and said: "In the end, the little girl was found by three other people, and the man with the gun threw the little girl off the cliff in a rage, but I could only squat In the corner, holding his head, saying sorry."

He Xiaofan said: "That's not your fault, you"

"No," Li Rourou interrupted him, "If I had been braver at that time and stood up to help that little girl, we would have succeeded in snatching the pistol. In that case, that little girl might not have to die."

"But you were only five years old at that time, anyone would be scared." He Xiaofan said.

"In the beginning, that's how I justified myself." Li Rourou smiled wryly, and said, "After being rescued and returning home, I no longer had the courage to practice martial arts."

"Whenever I stand in front of the stake, I will think of those vicious gangsters, the parents who died protecting their children, and that brave little girl."

"Originally, I thought I was going to give up just like that, and just be an ordinary little girl for the rest of my life, but until one day, I met a little boy at the intersection of the three-fork lane."

He Xiaofan: "..."

Whenever she thinks of the scene at that time, Li Rourou feels as if she has been saved.

"The little boy was very thin, but with his hands spread wide, he stood in front of a big yellow dog and the King of Hell, protecting a little girl."

He Xiaofan: "..."

"His whole body was shaking, and tears seemed to flow out, but the little boy gritted his teeth and shouted: Give me back my sister's things."

"It wasn't until that moment that I clearly realized that all the time, the reasons I had been looking for for myself were just to avoid my own guilt. I was just a five-year-old child, and there was no way."

"But isn't that little boy doing better than me?"

Li Rourou suddenly looked at He Xiaofan, said with a smile: "Aren't you just doing better than me?"

He Xiaofan vaguely remembered something.

At that time, he was standing in front of Grandpa Yama and Big Yellow Dog in the Three-forked Alley, helping his sister beg for her favorite hairpin. And on the west side of the Three-forked Alley, there seemed to be a small figure standing there.

But because I was too scared at the time, I had no time to pay so much attention.

Now think about it, it turns out that the figure in the west lane is Li Rourou when she was a child!
Li Rourou looked into his eyes and said very seriously: "That day, it was you who completely dug out the guilt in my heart and put it in front of me. After I went back, I cried a lot, but it was just Because of this, my heart was gradually redeemed."

"I went to the cemetery that I had never dared to go before, and visited the little girl and her parents. I apologized to them and swore that I would protect those I could see like that little boy in the future. "
