death star

Chapter 1

When it was getting dark, Liang Ruiting was clearing up the documents on the table. He had put his assistant back 5 minutes ago. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival once a year. To be honest, he didn’t want to work overtime, but one of the appointments he had to meet The person hasn't arrived yet, no matter what, he has to sit here and wait until the other party sends a message.

The time has passed seven o'clock in a hurry, and there were sounds of dragging chairs away one after another outside. Through a frosted glass, he saw Chen Si standing up next door. He seemed to be putting on a coat, holding a folder in his arms, The light was turned off, and the door lock clicked softly.

Chen Si has always been the last one to leave their office. He is a well-known overtime madman. Today he left even later than her. If he meets her tomorrow, he will probably be teased for a while.Liang Ruiting sighed and raised his wrist to look at his watch again.

He is a person with a strong sense of time, but the other party has been late for an hour, there is no SMS or phone notification, and he has not canceled the appointment, but this appointment is still at the end of the day. As a lawyer with mild obsessive-compulsive disorder, Liang Ruiting can't Enduring this appointment died without warning.

He waited patiently for another ten minutes, and finally there was movement at the door.Except for the people at the front desk, he should be the only one left in the whole office.He heard the sound of cursing, and Xiao Wei's voice at the front desk, and then there was a knock on the office door.

"Please come in." Liang Ruiting said.Xiao Wei opened the door and led two people in. The one who walked in front was a young man who looked no more than 27 or [-]. He was dressed very carefully, with sharp edges and corners, giving people a feeling of calm and prestige.At this moment, he frowned slightly, looking impatient, muttering something, but Liang Ruiting didn't listen.

He noticed the boy following the youth.He looks very small, probably still a student, with a clean and neat body shape, drooping eyebrows and eyes, like a submissive drifter, wearing a washed-white coat with a small hole in the cuff, and the side is crooked sewing thread.The wide school uniform was supported by the boy's thin frame, which made Liang Ruiting feel a little pity.

The young man dragged the boy to him, and Xiao Wei stood aside after delivering the water. Liang Ruiting signaled her to get off work first with his eyes, and then looked at the two people in front of him.The boy didn't seem to dare to resist the young man's order, and obediently shrank his neck and stood on one side, with his hands twisted together and his head lowered very sharply.

"Lawyer Liang, my name is Zhang Siduan, and this is my younger brother." Liang Ruiting noticed that Zhang Siduan had obvious disgust on his expression when he said the word "brother". It was obvious that the relationship between the brothers was not very good.Zhang Siduan patted the boy on the shoulder and pushed him forward, "His name is Liang Ruiting."

Liang Ruiting raised the corner of his eyes, and for a moment suspected that he had heard it wrong. The two brothers had different surnames, and they were probably half-brothers. However, the pronunciation of this boy's name was exactly the same as his.He said with some amusement: "Coincidentally, my name is Liang Ruiting. The Rui of Ruixue, the court of the imperial court."

"I know, I also think it's a coincidence." Zhang Siduan smiled, withdrew his hand, and handed him the document in his hand, "This is the information, I'm sorry, he came late because he went out to play, didn't you waste your time?"

"It's okay." Liang Ruiting took the document, but did not rush to read it, but put it at hand. "I'll read the details later, I want to hear from you first."

"Actually, this matter is not complicated. Rui Ting had a quarrel with his roommate, and the fight was quite loud. Rui Ting probably didn't pay attention and hit the other party's eyes. Later, the hospital gave a proof, The man's penis fell off, his eyesight was severely damaged, and there were multiple bruises and fractures on his body. The parents were anxious and wanted compensation. My parents didn't want to pay, so they wanted to sue for justice."

"So, what kind of results do you and your parents want?"

"Of course, it's a major matter and a minor matter. We don't want to accompany them in the lawsuit, and we won't pay the money according to their wishes. Rui Ting was also injured. Can't the two be offset? Besides, it was that guy who provoked it first. Therefore, I thought, can you please go to the other party’s house to persuade him, it’s best to reconcile privately, if you don’t agree to unconditional reconciliation, a little compensation is still acceptable.” Zhang Siduan paused here, and asked in a low voice Liang Ruiting said: "You said you have savings, how much?"

Liang Ruiting's hearing was very good, and there was no one else in the office, even though Zhang Siduan suppressed his voice, he could still hear clearly. His impression plummeted, but he felt even more distressed about Liang Ruiting, who had the same pronunciation as his own name.

Liang Ruiting seemed to be frightened, he jumped back abruptly and hit Zhang Siduan's chin, his face was so painful that his face disappeared immediately, considering that Liang Ruiting was still watching, he held back his anger and grabbed Liang Ruiting shoulder, and said in an angry tone: "The rest is just to read the information. If there is anything that needs our cooperation, you can contact me. We still have something to do, so let's go first."

Liang Ruiting also knew that he had provoked Zhang Siduan.He was desperately unwilling to push his part-time job at night to the law firm. Zhang Siduan has a violent personality, and he has always disliked him, causing a huge disturbance at the part-time job. After resigning, he followed Zhang Siduan, and the unpaid salary became compensation for the smashed things, which may not be enough.

He knew that his parents would not care about him. When his mother remarried, he didn't want to drag him around as an oil bottle, and his uncle was not too happy about his existence. As long as he stayed at home, the family would not be lively.The mother simply let him live out, and ignored him, did not give him living expenses, and did not ask how he was doing. The mother and son did not speak more than ten sentences 360 days a year, and they were strangers than strangers.

If it weren't for the fight, he might not have seen his mother this year.The woman was very angry, and slapped him in the hospital, and she didn't say that she would pick him up at night, and let him go back to the dormitory by himself.The other two roommates also knew about the fight between him and his roommate, and now that going back was nothing more than being stabbed in the back, Liang Ruiting went to the rest room of the part-time job to spend the night.

The next day when he came together, the roommate's parents found him and said he wanted to give an explanation.Liang Ruiting shrank back at home since he was a child, afraid of offending his uncle and Zhang Siduan, he was frightened when he heard what they said, and kept rummaging through his pockets to give them his card.

One of them couldn't stand it anymore and asked him to call his family.Liang Ruiting refused. He was an adult and a sophomore, so he shouldn't bother his parents anymore, not to mention that the Zhang family didn't care about him, and his mother had long been reluctant to see him.

The woman wanted to say something more, but in the end she just waved her hand and managed to get Zhang Siduan's contact information.Zhang Siduan was at a loss, and told Zhang Ye about the matter. Zhang Ye was so angry that he didn't care about Liang Ruiting.

Zhang Siduan was afraid of his father, so naturally it was impossible to scold him back, so he could only vent his anger on Liang Ruiting who did not resist.He himself is just a small white-collar employee, where did he come to manage Liang Ruiting's affairs.He simply kept on doing nothing, asked Liang Ruiting to pay for a lawyer, and also lost several layers of old schoolmate relationships, and took the membership price, otherwise Liang Ruiting's savings would not even be enough for a fraction.

Liang Ruiting's appointment line was full, so he joined a queue to get in today's line. Who knew that Liang Ruiting didn't want to go and insisted on working part-time.Zhang Siduan smashed several tables and chairs in a fit of anger, the noise was so loud that the boss almost called the police.Liang Ruiting was afraid of causing trouble, so he had to compromise.

Zhang Siduan rubbed the sore spot, carried Liang Ruiting under the tree at the door like a chicken, and threw him against the tree trunk.Liang Ruiting was malnourished. He looked like a freshman in high school even in his sophomore year. This fall directly hit his bone, and his face turned pale in an instant. He bent down and said nothing.

He knew his position in this family.He has a white-eyed wolf father, and women are angry with his father, so naturally they won't treat him very well. Before trying to find him again, the other party rejected him because of his existence. This deepened the woman's resentment, and finally met him. The last one who could bear it, the woman naturally wished to throw him away immediately.

If Zhang Siduan is a star who is loved by thousands of people, he is as low as a speck of dust.He stayed at home carefully, but he still inevitably became the target of their anger.Liang Ruiting couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable. He lowered his head and tried his best to hold back his tears.

Zhang Siduan wanted to call again, but the phone rang, and it was his colleague.Only then did he let go, reprimanded Liang Ruiting and told Liang Ruiting to go back to school by himself, turned around and put on a hippie smile, and walked away while answering the phone.

Liang Ruiting took a while to turn around, stood up with the trunk of the tree, wiped off the dirt on his trouser legs, and walked out step by step.

"Are you working overtime so late?" Liang Zhiting fiddled with the cactus on the window sill twice, biting the straw in her mouth, "I didn't mean you, Mom told you to come back early for dinner. Today, the atmosphere is better, and it's also a follow-up When Dad eases the relationship, what do you work overtime?"

"Work, I can't push it. I have to be responsible to the client." Liang Ruiting put his hands on the handlebars, opened the door and sat in.Through the rearview mirror, he saw a bent boy walking slowly along the fence.He frowned, and recognized the man as Liang Ruiting.

"Then you have to repair the relationship between father and son. Today is still the Mid-Autumn Festival." Liang Zhiting couldn't help complaining a few words. After thinking about it, Liang Ruiting has this personality, so she stopped talking, and sighed: "So you are here today. Are you not coming back?"

"I won't go back." Liang Ruiting replied a little casually, and quickly hung up the phone.He looked at the struggling man through the car window, and he didn't know whether it was distressing or he couldn't bear to watch him, so he opened the car door again and walked up to Liang Ruiting.

"Do you want me to take you back?"

Liang Ruiting didn't react when he heard such a gentle voice, he raised his head in a daze, and his gaze fell into Liang Ruiting's eyes.

When he was at the office just now, he hadn't actually observed this man much, and he didn't even remember the man's name, only that his surname was Liang.

"No, thank you." Liang Ruiting shook his head.

Still quite stubborn.Liang Ruiting was a little surprised, squatted slightly to look at him, and said again: "You don't have to be so nervous, I'm your lawyer, we may meet often during this time. Do you really not need to send it?"

Too gentle, Liang Ruiting thought.In his only life, no one has ever spoken to him in this tone, more in an imperative tone, and it is rare to discuss with him like this and ask for his opinion.

The place where Zhang Siduan had just beaten was still hurting, Liang Ruiting secretly gritted his teeth and shook his head.Liang Ruiting found that this person was not ordinary stubborn, so he had no choice but to return to the car.

Liang Ruiting was relieved when he saw that the person had left.He was sweating coldly from the pain. For some reason, he didn't want Liang Ruiting to see him in a panic. It was like dissecting himself in front of a stranger, which made him very uncomfortable.

Liang Ruiting may also be aware of this, so he didn't chase after him, but just dropped the car behind and drove slowly. Seeing Liang Ruiting walked into a tube building area, the car stopped when he couldn't get in.He raised his head and looked at the broken street lamp in the distance, feeling inexplicably bored.

Because two-thirds of the deposit was used to hire a lawyer, and this is a house that the landlord has left for a long time, Liang Ruiting has not yet paid the electricity bill for this month. I found the medicine box, filled the medicine indiscriminately, and then put the quilt on and planned to sleep.

He doesn't know what his roommate thinks of him now, he just wants to stay away from those right and wrong and live with peace of mind.It was difficult for him just to survive.

When Liang Ruiting returned home, he read the information on Liang Ruiting's matter from beginning to end, only to realize that Zhang Siduan had said many things in a perfunctory way, and he hadn't even given him the contact number of the other party. responsible brother.

He lit a cigarette, held it between his fingertips, and looked at Liang Ruiting's name written on it.

It turned out to be these three words.he thinks.

The author has something to say: I've been really mad lately (no), maybe the closer I get to the mid-term, the more I want to make waves? ? ?
