Till death let us meet

The clients were two elderly people, and the old man who was almost withered was sitting in a wheelchair.There was a middle-aged woman at home who was supposed to be the nanny, and was feeding Jingguo powder to the old man. He opened his mouth weakly and looked at the TV in front of him.There is an advertisement for health care products on TV.

The old lady who came to open the door was also trembling. When Shen Feng asked their ages, both of them were over 80 years old.It was their only son, 55-year-old Zhang Xian, who committed suicide this time.

Shen Feng took the old man's key, went to the [-]th floor to investigate the scene, and calculated the estimated value, and then went down to the [-]rd floor with the power of attorney and the estimate for the client to sign.

"55 years old..." Shen Feng's heart twitched. How could he think of committing suicide at such an age, with two frail old people in his family.Shen Feng couldn't understand what kind of heart it was like for a person who left this world without his parents.Could it be that there are other inside stories.

"Son, my son is suffering... His life is suffering... He is too miserable..." The old lady began to cry without saying a few words, and the old man beside him who was silently eating Jingguo powder also poured out of his eyes. tears.Even the nannies started wiping their eyes.

Then Shen Feng learned from their intermittent words why 55-year-old Zhang Xian wanted to commit suicide.

Two years ago, Zhang Xian's only son drowned accidentally during a trip. As a father, Zhang Xian couldn't accept this fact, and he suffered a nervous breakdown. He even saw hallucinations all the time and suffered from depression.I even divorced my wife two months ago before moving back to live here.

Zhang Xian originally had a happy family of three. He was an executive in a high-tech state-owned enterprise in the city, and his wife was the head nurse of a tertiary hospital. Both of them had high salaries, and they could live a relatively affluent life in this city.

His wife had three pregnancies due to thin uterine wall and hyperandremia, all of which were spontaneous abortions.Their only son, Zhang Jun, was finally conceived and kept after ten years of their marriage.This is their only child born successfully.

Therefore, the couple treated Zhang Jun like pearls and treasures since they were young. Zhang Jun himself was also very competitive. He was very smart since he was a child, and he never had to worry about the couple.Two years ago, I was admitted to a key university in this province, and my family was very happy.

Zhang Jun didn't ask for any other incentives, but just hoped to go on a trip with his classmates. His parents were worried that he would go alone, but he repeatedly explained that he was going with a few classmates, and that he was traveling in a group and not on his own.Thinking that it is not easy for their son to study all the time, the parents agreed to his request.

As a result, the three children who were traveling with them left the group and went out to explore the mountain stream. One of their classmates fell into the water. Zhang Jun, who was familiar with water, went down with another classmate to rescue others.

The three children who died were all only children, and the three pairs of parents almost went blind from crying, but the children would never come back.

Among them, Zhang Xian's family suffered the most. Due to the sad news of the child's sudden death, Zhang Xian's spirit began to go abnormal. He could not sleep all night and stood at the door of the house, saying that his son had returned.His wife comforted him, but the two of them cried together.There was no progress in his condition, and he would still stand at the door waiting for his son every night.The work could not continue, and the company took pity on him and gave him an early retirement.

However, the pain followed like a shadow, and the shadow has always shrouded this incomplete home. In the end, Zhang Xian refused to drag his wife down, filed for divorce, and moved out.

Usually, Zhang Xian's wife would visit him every week, but this time because the hospital organized a two-week training in other places, she only came to see him after two weeks.The result was an accident.

The old couple did not know that he was at home. He told the old couple that he would go to Putuo Mountain with another parent of the dead child to pray for the child, and set up the mobile phone to send text messages regularly, so the old couple did not know that he was still there. Upstairs there was no going out at all.

The time difference between the two parties caused a permanent tragedy.It was Zhang Xian's wife, Sun Xiu, who found the body. Seeing the tragic scene, she fell into a coma on the spot and is still in the hospital for emergency treatment.

It is no exaggeration to say that what happened to this family is a human tragedy. No one is wrong, but no one can be saved.The two old people did not dare to face the room where their only son died, nor did they have the courage to face it. The daughter-in-law was still lying in the hospital and could not be treated.

They could only trouble their distant relative Brother Zhuang to find someone to help, so they found Shen Feng.

Shen Feng bid farewell to the two elders, and agreed to come over tomorrow to deal with the scene and sort out the belongings.

The dead soul kept twitching his shoulders, and it was rare that he didn't chatter with Shen Feng, but just sobbed silently.Shen Feng also felt very uncomfortable. The white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and the tearful appearance of the two old people was deeply engraved in his heart.

Families who lost their only child lose not only a child, but also the spiritual bond that maintains the entire family. Traditional Chinese culture has always centered on "family culture". When the only child is gone, the family is basically destroyed.

"I think of Shen Le's parents..." Xiao Qiao, who was sobbing, said something.

"Yes, if there is no nanny, the situation of their family and Shen Le's family is similar. Now that the only son has passed away, the two old people are really hard."

"Shen Feng, if you say that I die, will my family members be so sad? Where are they, I suddenly want to know..." Xiao Qiao raised her face, but she couldn't see the tears, the only thing she could see , is his extremely sad eyes.

"It will be found... I will find it with you..."

Shen Feng didn't lie, he really hoped that Xiao Qiao could find his family, and he also hoped that he would look forward to it.As long as you are human, you will expect the warmth of family.Shen Feng thought that if his father left when he was not 14 years old, but when he was [-] years old, then his life would definitely have to be rewritten again, and it would definitely be different from what it is now.

"Hmm..." Xiao Qiao nodded. This time he didn't directly witness the cleaning scene, but the shock he received was greater than seeing the scene.

"Sometimes I think about it, it's good to be alone." Shen Feng's eyes became erratic, "Even if I die, at least the living will not be so sad."

"However, if a person dies silently, it will cause trouble for others. Neighbors and landlords, such a smell will still cause trouble for others."

"Then what should we do? Do we want to imitate an elephant, wait until we are about to die, and then run to the wild where no one will disturb others, and wait for death silently? Humans are social creatures, even if they die, they hope to die in a place where people know .”

"I'm so young, I don't want to die yet, Shen Feng, is it possible that I'm not dead yet?" Xiao Qiao couldn't help but began to guess that it would be nice if she was still alive.

"I don't know, you didn't think of anything else besides the name? By the way, it's not a serious name. Did you remember your name?"

"Of course I will tell you if I remember it, it's not that I haven't remembered it yet..."

The next day, Shen Feng's spirit was not very good, and the fat man was in charge of driving.On the way, he told the fat man about the tragedy of the family, and the fat man clicked his tongue.

"Brother Shen, you said that the countryside also has its advantages. In our corner, the folk customs are fierce. If you don't let him be born, it's almost like killing his whole family, so the family planning committee doesn't dare to take too much care. Those who haven't given birth to boys will be let go." Start giving birth until a boy is born!"

"The city is strictly controlled. Although I don't know what the old couple do, it is obvious that they are from a good family. Maybe they are cadres. In those days, whoever was a cadre in the city dared to have a second child."

"When people are born in the countryside, there are actually some unfilial sons, and there are quite a few who raise a bunch of them but refuse to support their parents."

The topic gradually drifted away, and the dead soul listened with gusto. He listened to the two talking as if he was learning new knowledge.He still nodded from time to time, and sometimes even communicated with Shen Feng a few words, of course it was one-sided, Shen Feng didn't dare to respond to him, if the fat man saw it, he would definitely think that he was abnormal.

The two entered the community, parked the car, and went up to the third floor to get the keys.

I took the key and went to the fifteenth floor. I didn't smell a particularly strong smell outside, but I could still feel a trace of corpse odor when I raised my nose.The dead soul tilted his head, his sense of smell was not very sensitive, and he might not have smelled it.

"Put on the work clothes first, and put on the shoe covers. There are flies and maggots inside." Shen Feng reminded the fat man that he had already seen it when he came to estimate the price yesterday.

The fat man nodded and said yes, although the weather is not so hot now, the scene where he died for half a month must not be very clean.

"It's definitely not worse than the old couple's last time." The fat man muttered.

The two quickly changed into work clothes, put on shoe covers, picked up their equipment and walked into the suicide scene.

Empty and dead... The scene gave the two people such a feeling. The house is rough, without decoration, and the inside is extremely simple. There is a bed when you enter the door, and there is not even a table. There are almost no signs of human life. If there is any, Probably a pile of leftovers thrown in a corner, now infested with flies.

In addition to the flying flies, there were also quite a few fly eggs and maggots crawling around on the ground. The number was not many, and the two of them were used to it.

In the empty living room, a data cable almost two meters long hangs down, and the other end is tied to a girder exposed without decoration.

There is still a yellow substance remaining on the data cable, which rattles from time to time, and maggots crawl and fall off.

"It's fat, yellow." The dead soul told Shen Feng after getting closer to check it.

"How did this person commit suicide?" The fat man stared at the data cable with an indescribable expression on his face.

"Hanged."
