spirits in throat

On the ten-meter-high chimney, a man with a scruffy beard was sitting on a retractable ladder with a little boy in his arms.

The man was wearing old black clothes, and his hair was long, as if it hadn't been cut for several years. His voice was rough and hoarse, as if it came from a broken bellows: "Son, my good son."

The little boy was only five or six years old, huddled in the arms of the man, a little unconscious, and his eyes could not be opened wide.The little boy wanted to escape, but he didn't dare to move. If he moved, he would fall down the chimney and die.

The man and the boy were Ding Penghai and Xiaopang.

Ding Penghai was afraid that the child would be noisy, so he gave him some sleeping pills, and only now woke up.

"My dear son, call Dad and listen."

Xiaopang was so frightened that he trembled, he didn't dare to move, and looked at the man in fear.

He was sleeping, but when he woke up, he found that he was here. He couldn't help but flattened his mouth and cried, "Mom, I want mom."

Ding Penghai shook Xiaopang, pressed his head hard to force him to look down the chimney, and said fiercely: "Don't call your mother, your mother is dead."

When Xiaopang heard that his mother had died, he could no longer control himself and burst into tears: "Mom, I want my mother, let me go, I want my mother."

Ding Penghai covered Xiaopang's mouth, and roared in a low voice: "If you dare to speak out again, I will strangle you to death and throw you down. There is a big iron pot underneath. There is hot water in the iron pot. If you fall, it will kill you." cooked."

Xiaopang shrank into a ball in fright, sobbing softly while looking at the man in front of him.

Two months ago, he accidentally saw his mother walking into the vegetable cellar carrying food, and while his mother was not at home, he pushed the big water tank away and saw this man tied by an iron chain.

The man said he was his dad and told him to let him out.

Xiaopang has never had a father, and other children have fathers, but he doesn't have one, and he also wants a father.The man told him to bring a hairpin, which he did.

Ding Penghai unlocked the iron chain with a hairpin and escaped from the vegetable cellar.

But before he ran far, he was blocked by Feng Guihua who came back from the outside.Ding Penghai was imprisoned for several years, his ankles and wrists were covered with strangle marks of iron chains, his whole body was weak, and he didn't even have a convenient weapon in his hands.

Feng Guihua was used to rough work, so he easily subdued Ding Penghai and locked him back in the vegetable cellar.

A little bird stopped on the chimney, Ding Penghai held Xiaopang in his arms, pinched his fleshy little face: "Did you see that bird?"

Fatty didn't dare to say anything.

Ding Penghai continued: "Do you want it?"

Xiaopang nodded, he wanted to take it home and raise it.Every child likes small animals, and Xiaopang is no exception.

Ding Penghai smiled evilly: "When it's safe, Dad will take you to catch the birds, strip them of all their fur, cut their necks and stomachs, and cut off their legs."

Xiaopang was so frightened that he wanted to cry again.

Ding Penghai looked at Xiaopang with contempt and disgust: "When Dad was your age, he already knew how to catch stray dogs and eat them. Look at you, you are afraid of killing a bird. What will you do in the future. "

"I really have to thank your mother for giving me a son. My son must not be a coward. He has to be raised from an early age."

Ding Penghai hugged Xiaopang tightly, and said in his ear with a gloomy voice: "Dogs are not interesting to kill, but cats are interesting. The smaller the cat, the better. You step on it, and it barks. It will be more fun if you burn it with a wire, or use a knife to bleed blood, remember not to cut your neck, you will die soon after cutting your neck, and you will not hear the screams when you die, that would be so boring.”

"A long time ago, Dad met a little sister. She was very beautiful. She was wearing a school uniform and two ponytails. She was pink and tender and had a nice voice," Ding Penghai said while talking, as if reminiscing about the time at that time. Feeling, he grinned, showing his yellow teeth, and continued in a hoarse voice, "It's so cute to scream and beg for mercy while bleeding."

Little Fatty was so frightened that he couldn't help crying, but he didn't dare to cry out. Tears fell down, and he couldn't help but look down the chimney. The father said that there was a big iron pot with hot water underneath, so he jumped down. will be scalded.

But he was really afraid of this father, and wanted to jump, but he was afraid of being boiled in hot water.

Anxious and frightened, I peed my pants in fright.

Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao quietly climbed up to the roof and saw a man's head protruding from the chimney.The two looked at each other, met each other's eyes, and came down from the roof together.

Ding Penghai is a lunatic and a murderer. When he was alarmed, he found that he couldn't escape.The worst result is to jump down the chimney with Xiaopang in his arms.

At a height of ten meters, it will be smashed into a pulp.Ding Penghai deserved to die, Xiaopang was innocent, he was only five years old.

Zhou Ye looked at Rong Zhao: "What are you thinking?"

"Notify Lin Hongze." Rong Zhao looked up at the straight chimney, Ding Penghai and Xiaopang were hanging on it, and it was impossible for him and Zhou Ye to rescue Xiaopang without external force.

Zhou Ye took out his mobile phone, called Lin Hongze, and explained the situation in detail.

Lin Hongze was preparing to adjust the helicopter so that the search and arrest team could look down from above and search. Hearing that Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao had discovered Ding Penghai's hiding place, Lin Hongze readjusted his plan and led a group of people to the chimney of the paper mill.

Zhou Ye and Rong Zhao walked into the paper mill and looked under the chimney. Even if a life-saving mat was laid here, it would be difficult for people on it to survive if they jumped off it.

The two retreated quietly, seeing Lin Hongze rushing over with a group of people, they discussed together.

The child must be saved, this is the purpose.

As for Ding Penghai, it would be best if he could be captured alive, and it doesn't matter if he is dead, as long as he can save the child.

"Arrange a sniper to blow Ding Penghai's head off with a single shot. Once Ding Penghai dies, the child may be frightened and fall down the chimney easily," Lin Hongze continued, "We can't take this risk."

The deputy team said from the side: "How about finding a negotiator to negotiate with Ding Penghai?"

"No, Ding Penghai knows that once he falls into the hands of the police, he will die for sure. The crimes he committed will not be repaid if he is shot ten times. What if he jumps over the wall and jumps off with his children?" Zhou Ye looked up. The chimney that went straight into the night sky cursed in a low voice, "Bastard, it's too damn good to hide."

Without full confidence, no one dared to say that he would be able to save the child.

Ding Penghai couldn't escape, and the police couldn't save the child from him.

Zhou Ye: "If it doesn't work, just pretend to retreat. Ding Penghai won't stay up there forever, he will always have to eat. Wait until he comes down with the child, and then arrest him."

Indeed, this method is currently the safest and most effective.

The police began to retreat with great fanfare.

Ding Penghai heard the siren getting farther and farther away, thinking that he was safe, he poked his head out cautiously and looked outside.It's night now, and it's not easy to leave when it dawns.

After a while, Ding Penghai tied Xiaopang to himself, sat on the edge of the chimney, put away the shrinking ladder, and prepared to put the ladder on the nearby house, walked along the ladder to the house, and then ran away.

Zhou Ye and others hid in the hidden place under the factory building and watched Ding Penghai emerge from the chimney. They were waiting for this moment.

With a bang, the accident happened in an instant.

Ding Penghai was about to hold the child with one hand, while holding the telescopic ladder with the other, accidentally, the ladder fell from his hand and hit the ground.

He was trapped on the top and couldn't get down. Without the help of external force, he would never be able to get down from the ten-meter-high chimney.

Lin Hongze, Zhou Ye and others agreed on two plans. One is to let the police pretend to be two workers passing by when the sun rises. Ding Penghai will definitely ask for help.

The police rescued Ding Penghai from the chimney and arrested him at the same time.

The second is direct rescue.Prevent Ding Penghai from being too vigilant and delaying asking for help.

The adults are better. When the sun comes out tomorrow, it will be roasted on the top of the head. The weather is nearly [-] degrees. The tired, hungry and frightened children can't bear it at all.

Sending negotiators to hold Ding Penghai back and attract his attention, it would be good if we can negotiate.

If there is no possibility of peace talks, the child's life is at stake. The police sent a person to quietly climb up the chimney, and at the same time arranged for a sniper. When the gunshot rang out, Ding Penghai fell, and the person held the child to prevent the child from falling.

The helicopter was dispatched immediately and rescued the child and the people sent by the police.

Just in case, while negotiating, send a few people to quietly put sponges and life-saving mats into the chimney.The chimney is [-] meters high, even if it can be padded by [-] meters, it can protect the life of the child more.

If the child falls down the chimney, there are sponges and life preservers.If it falls outside, someone sent by the police to climb up the chimney will pull it, double protection.

The difficulty and focus of this task were actually all on the person who was sent to rescue the child. He had to climb up silently to approach Ding Penghai and grab the child immediately.

Lin Hongze turned his head to look at his subordinates, and finally set his sights on Rong Zhao.

If anyone can climb up like an invisible person without alarming Ding Penghai, Rong Zhao is the best candidate.

In the early morning of the next day, the police pretended to be workers and passed under the chimney several times. Ding Penghai refused to ask for help. He was too cautious. In the factory area, he was afraid that the workers here would recognize him.

It was noon soon.

Today's weather is too good, the sun is overhead, not to mention Ding Penghai sitting on the chimney, even the policemen ambushing in the shade are sweating profusely.

Lin Hongze received an investigation call. According to the report, the child held hostage by Ding Penghai looked very bad, his eyes were closed all the time, and he was drowsy.

It couldn't be dragged down anymore, and the negotiating experts were in place soon, standing on the roof closest to the chimney to negotiate with Ding Penghai.

Zhou Ye walked up to Rong Zhao, watched him change his climbing clothes and shoes quietly, and finally said in a low voice: "I agreed last time, when Ding Penghai is arrested, I will take good care of you."

Rong Zhao nodded, tied the rope around his waist, looked up at the chimney that was almost melted by the sun, and touched the stone bricks on the chimney with his hand: "There is a ladder on the top, it's all right, wait here obediently." I."

After receiving the action signal, Rong Zhao began to climb up the chimney.

"Rong Zhao has good surveillance and tracking skills. I didn't expect him to be so good." Lin Hongze turned his head and looked at Zhou Ye. "It really deserves to be the person I took a lot of effort to snatch."

Zhou Ye looked up at Rong Zhao, seeing that he soon climbed halfway, and he was about to approach Ding Penghai.His movements look light and fast, but in fact he has to be very careful with every step.

The chimney is old and old, and the steel ladder on it can't be said to be firm. If one of them gets loose after stepping on it, it will definitely alarm Ding Penghai above.

Rong Zhao climbed up and fixed himself behind Ding Penghai with ropes.

The negotiator is still trying to deal with Ding Penghai: "You don't think about yourself, you have to think about your child. He hasn't drunk water for a long time, and he is unconscious. His life is easily in danger."

"After all, he is your own flesh and blood."

Ding Penghai sneered: "If I can't live, I can't teach him personally, and it's useless to keep it."

"Prepare a car and send me out of Dongyu City. I promise not to hurt him. Otherwise, don't blame me for strangling him to death now. If you want to die together, you can still be a companion on Huangquan Road."

After speaking, he put his hand on the child's slender neck.

Even if Tiger Poison does not eat children, Ding Penghai is no longer even a beast.

Lin Hongze gave an order on the walkie-talkie, and the sniper fired. Ding Penghai had a red mark on his forehead where the bullet had passed through, and he died in response.

Ding Penghai fell straight backwards. Rong Zhao stepped forward and grabbed Xiaopang's arm. Ding Penghai was too heavy, and Xiaopang was tied to him. Rong Zhao had to hold two people, one big and one small, by himself. Even with the weight, he couldn't spare his hand to cut the rope that bound Ding Penghai and Xiaopang together.

He grabbed Xiaopang with one hand and the chimney with the other, his fingertips turned white, and he gritted his teeth urgently. He only needed a few minutes for the helicopter to come.

Suddenly, the dilapidated ladder under Rong Zhao's feet broke.

He was hanging over the chimney, and the wrist of the hand that held the fat man was almost broken, and the end was too heavy.

Just a few minutes seemed as long as a year. The helicopter arrived and took Rong Zhao and Xiaopang away. The rescue was successful.

Lin Hongze walked to Zhou Ye's side and looked at the helicopter in the sky: "Aren't you worried about Rong Zhao? The ladder broke just now, and he stepped on the air."

At that critical moment, even Lin Hongze gasped, not to mention the other people present.

Zhou Ye took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, slipped his hand, and took a few strokes of the lighter before lighting it up. He took a deep puff of the cigarette, and said in a calm voice, "He is a policeman, this is what he should do. of."

After the people around went their separate ways, Zhou Ye wiped the sweat off his palms with his thumb, and he broke out in a cold sweat from Rong Zhao's surprise.

Although he was tied with a rope, he shouldn't fall, but that rope is fixed on several ladders, if one ladder breaks, the other ladders will certainly not be firm.

If Rong Zhao fell, Zhou Ye would hardly dare to think about it.

Originally, he could propose to go up instead of Rong Zhao, but he didn't, Rong Zhao had to go this time by himself.

He had already tasted what it was like to kill, and he wanted him to taste what it was like to risk his life to save someone.He wants him to see his own value, and he wants to lead him to live a better life.

Rong Zhao and Xiaopang were taken to the hospital for a physical examination. Zhou Ye made a video call to the nurse in the nursing home and told Li Mingzhen on the hospital bed the news of Ding Penghai's death.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ye got into the police car and returned to the police station with Lin Hongze and the others. When they passed by the entrance of the hospital, Lin Hongze asked people to stop the car: "I know you won't be able to sit still even if you go back to the police station. Go and have a look."

Zhou Ye looked at Lin Hongze, and smiled slightly: "Old Lin, I will never say that your IQ was zero when you were in love, isn't that quite right?"

Lin Hongze slammed Zhou Ye out of the car: "Get out, your IQ is zero when you're fucking in love, I'm real love."

Zhou Ye stood at the entrance of the hospital and was about to go in when his cell phone rang. He glanced at it and saw that it was a call from a nurse in the nursing home.

"Mr. Zhou, I am very sad to tell you that Ms. Li Mingzhen's condition suddenly deteriorated four or 10 minutes ago, and she passed away before being rescued in time."

Zhou Ye was standing under the sun. Four or 10 minutes ago, it was time for Zhou Ye to make a video call.The teacher's wife couldn't wait any longer, she was going to heaven to tell the good news to the teacher and Xiaomeng.

Zhou Ye put away his mobile phone, wiped away the tears falling from the corner of his eyes with the back of his hand, and walked towards the hospital gate.

Rong Zhao was holding a bunch of blank checklists, and was about to go through them one by one according to the above items.

Before putting it aside, he had already thrown away the list and left. Except for the wound on his wrist being strangled by the masonry on the chimney, there was no need to check other electrocardiograms and the like.

He suddenly began to cherish his life, hoping that he would be healthy and free from any physical problems.

Rong Zhao was queuing up at the entrance of the radiology department and waiting for the examination, when suddenly someone hugged his waist from behind, and said in a low, choked voice: "Rong Rong."

"Master's wife is gone, and I haven't even had time to introduce you to her."

Rong Zhao turned around to look at Zhou Ye, and held his hand tightly.He is not good at comforting others, and he can't say any comforting words. In the face of real pain, any comforting words are powerless.

He knows this better than anyone.

Zhou Ye was uncomfortable, and he was also uncomfortable. He was uncomfortable with Zhou Ye's discomfort, and it was even more uncomfortable that he would lose the man in front of him.

With the death of Ding Penghai, more and more truths about the Guan family extermination case surfaced. Sooner or later, Zhou Ye would know that his master could not have died.

Rong Zhao took Zhou Ye's hand, took him to the washroom, closed the door, bowed his head and kissed him.

It was Zhou Ye who taught him that there are many ways to vent and relieve emotions, and kissing is one of them.

While kissing Zhou Ye, Rong Zhao felt a salty taste on the corner of his lips. He hugged Zhou Ye tightly, kissing away the tears on his face inch by inch.

Zhou Ye knew in his heart that the teacher's wife lay on the hospital bed every day, unable to move her body, unable to open her eyes, and without a relative around her, she could only dream about her daughter and husband who died tragically in her sleep. It was a kind of torture, but he was relieved when he left.

Ding Penghai died, and the only thought of his wife was gone.

But what should he do?In the past few years, he had a falling out with his family and was kicked out of the house. He held his breath in his heart, and he didn't want to go home when he was homesick. He liked to stay in the nursing home and regarded his wife as his family.

If he gets homesick again in the future, where else can he go.

Zhou Ye hugged Rong Zhao tightly, sucked him, and whispered in his ear: "I only have you, don't leave me."

What Zhou Ye said was not Rong Zhao's heartfelt words, he was also afraid, also afraid that if he knew the truth about his master's death, he would blame him and blame him for leaving him.

In the end, Rong Zhao let go of Zhou Ye, and led him out of the bathroom: "Go home tonight, I have something to tell you."

Rong Zhao went to one department after another for physical examination, Zhou Ye was waiting for him at the door, not going anywhere.

Until Rong Zhao did a physical examination, one of the two went back to the bureau, and the other went to the nursing home.

After get off work, Rong Zhao didn't go home immediately, he went to the vegetable market that he never went to, bought some of Zhou Ye's favorite dishes, and then went to the flower shop that Zhou Ye often went to.

The proprietress saw Rong Zhao and smiled at him: "Buy roses?"

Rong Zhao carried a bag of vegetables and looked in the flower shop: "What flowers can make people feel better just by looking at them?"

The proprietress of the florist was stunned for a moment, and then she smiled: "Your words are familiar to me. One time when your family came to buy flowers, what you said was exactly the same as what you just said."

The proprietress walked to the tin bucket with roses: "I asked him to pick the buds and bring them back to bloom. You can admire them for several days. Guess what he said."

Rong Zhao took out a blooming rose from the bucket, looked at a dewdrop rolling down from the petals, and said in a low voice: "He must have said that he didn't want to wait for these flowers to open slowly, he wanted to pick the ones that were in full bloom. "

"Please help me choose the most beautiful 99 flowers, he is not in a good mood today, I want to let him see the most beautiful ones now."

The proprietress has been selling flowers for many years, she has never seen any kind of love, she has already become numb, but today, for some reason, her eyes are a little hot.

Rong Zhao returned home with a bag of vegetables in his left hand and a bouquet of roses in his right. He bought a pack of cigarettes when he passed by the canteen, and he didn't smoke it himself. He doesn't like smoking, and he doesn't plan to get into this bad habit.

He bought it for Zhou Ye, and he didn't like Zhou Ye's smoking. He thought the smoke smelled bad and hurt his body.Usually when I saw Zhou Ye, Zhou Ye would frown.

Back home, Rong Zhao put the dishes in the kitchen, put the roses in the vase, and placed the cigarettes in the most conspicuous position on the table.

He decided to confess to Zhou Ye today and tell him the truth about his master's death.

He hoped that he would feel better when he saw the meal he cooked for him, the flowers and cigarettes he bought for him, so that he would not leave, or be gentle when he scolded him and pushed him away.

Rong Zhao walked into the kitchen, put on an apron, and watched the food video while turning on his mobile phone, and followed the steps above.

I usually see Zhou Ye doing these things very simply, easily and neatly. How did they get into his hands? Either the vegetables were not cut well, or they were fried with too much oil and too little salt.

After finally putting the dishes on the table, I found that there was no rice, so I hurried to wash the rice again.

After everything was done, Rong Zhao took off his apron and sat at the table, looking at the three appalling dishes on the table, took a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs with his chopsticks and tasted it.

It was charred on the outside but undercooked on the inside, like chewing on a piece of mushy raw meat.

Rong Zhao got up and threw the dish into the trash can, he didn't even want the plate anymore, and threw the dish together with a "crash".

He looked at the other two dishes on the table and didn't have the courage to try them again.He was afraid, what if it didn't taste good, then Zhou Ye would not be in a good mood, and he would leave him.

There was the sound of a key turning the door lock behind him. Zhou Ye walked into the house and went to the bathroom to wash his hands. When he came out, he was quite surprised to see roses, cigarettes and food on the table.

"You did it?"

Rong Zhao nodded.

Zhou Ye smelled a burnt smell as soon as he entered the door, and almost thought that Rong Zhao had set the kitchen on fire.He walked to the table and picked up the chopsticks: "Then I have a taste?"

Rong Zhao watched Zhou Ye point his chopsticks at the potato shreds on the table that had been fried black by him: "Don't eat it."

Zhou Ye aimed his chopsticks at another dish of homemade tofu, secretly guessing in his heart that the one that was broken into a mess should be... tofu.

Rong Zhao didn't dare to let Zhou Ye eat, stepped forward and snatched the chopsticks from his hand, threw himself on the bed while hugging him, and kissed him on the lips.

Zhou Ye had been busy in the nursing home for most of the day, and was exhausted. He originally planned to go home and hug Rong Zhao to take a good rest.

Zhou Ye has never seen Rong Zhao take the initiative to please him so much, cook for him with his own hands, buy the most beautiful flowers for him, and even buy semi-contraband items like cigarettes for him.

Zhou Ye hugged Rong Zhao, and couldn't stand being kissed a few times by him, so he turned his defense into an offense and pressed Rong Zhao under him.

Rong Zhao stretched out his hand to turn off the headlight in the room, turned on the desk lamp, and unbuttoned Zhou Ye's jacket one by one.

Zhou Ye's movements paused, his dark eyes looked at Rong Zhao: "You..."

Rong Zhao blocked Zhou Ye's with his own lips, kissed his lips, Adam's apple, and then all the way down... He didn't know what he wanted to do, he just wanted to please Zhou Ye, and when he was comfortable serving him, he would Won't be mad at him and leave him.

Rong Zhao had already taken off Zhou Ye's shirt, and he saw the person lying on top of him.Then he heard the sound of the belt being undone.

Rong Zhao choked him.

Zhou Ye suppressed the huge emotional tide surging all over his body, got up and hugged Rong Zhao from his body, and asked in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with you?"

Rong Zhao broke away from Zhou Ye and wanted to get it for him, but Zhou Ye pressed him on the bed and couldn't move. He called his name in a hoarse voice: "Rong Rong."

Rong Zhao came back to his senses, gritted his teeth tightly, and turned his head away from looking at Zhou Ye.

Zhou Ye held Rong Zhao's face, forced him to look at him, and said anxiously, "Speak."

Rong Zhao calmed down for a while, and told the truth about Master Zhou Ye's death back then: "He hid it well, and it was all because of me. If it wasn't for saving me, he wouldn't have exposed himself."

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ye, his eyes were full of water vapor: "I treat you well, don't leave, okay?"

Zhou Ye looked at the dishes on the table, the roses and cigarettes in the bottle, and at the clothes scattered on the floor that Rong Zhao had ripped off.

Because she was so distressed, her voice trembled a little: "You are my baby, how can I be willing to leave you."

After Zhou Ye finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Rong Zhao's lips heavily.

He wanted to hurt him well.

He kissed him tenderly and did everything he wanted to do to him just now.
