Longcheng Fengyun

Fei Jue walked unhurriedly in a gutter, treading water, and also those transparent plastic bags, knotted condoms, and crumpled candy wrappers.He asked Ni Qiu: "It doesn't matter if you go to Maoji later?"

Ni Qiu walked along the sidewalk and murmured, "I didn't expect to sleep until nine o'clock..." He was full of apology, "It made you fail to play mahjong."

"It's okay, drawing joker cards is also a good way to pass the time, and then I also fell asleep." Fei Jue said.The gutter got deeper, and he stepped down and stepped under the sewage. Fei Jue jumped onto the sidewalk, raised his feet and shook his legs.When Ni Qiu saw it, he bent down to polish his shoes, and Fei Jue squatted down. He and Ni Qiu both wiped his shoes with their sleeves. Their hands bumped into each other. Fei Jue laughed first, and Ni Qiu tilted his head. Looking at Fei Jue also laughed.

Fei Jue rested his chin on one hand and looked at Ni Qiu with a smile: "Don't tell others what happened to Zhou You."

Ni Qiu nodded, retracted his hands, stretched his sleeves to cover the backs of his hands, and curled his fingers into the sleeves. He asked Fei Jue, "Would you like to pack some supper back home? He seems to like eating the fried two... ..."

"That kid..." Fei Jue sighed, stood up, shook his trouser legs, and said, "He has a life debt, and I caught him back as a coolie."

Ni Qiu listened silently.Fei Jue said: "Snake Seven has a godbrother, he doesn't know what's wrong, he likes to spit out."

He thought for a while before continuing: "If it were me, I would beat him too. Is it disgusting? If he is still there, he will also ruin the face of the underworld. Everyone thinks that young and Dangerous people are as uneducated and uneducated as him. They really have lives. If no one teaches, just plug the gaps in your mouth, and please ask him to wear a helmet when driving a motorcycle."

After complaining, Fei Jue lit a cigarette, patted Ni Qiu, pointed to the front and said, "I'll waste your time a little longer."

Ni Qiu looked out in the direction he was pointing, suddenly regained his energy, raised his eyebrows happily, and said, "Let's go."

"Let's go." Fei Jue also shrugged his eyebrows and smiled, and he and Ni Qiu quickened their pace and walked towards an alley between the buildings.When approaching the alley, Fei Jue raised his head and looked in a big circle. The towering residential buildings went straight into the belly of the clouds, a plane flew by at low altitude, and the signal lights were like sparks. As for the moon, he couldn't find it.

Maybe it is hiding behind the building, maybe it is greedy for the embrace of a certain cloud and does not want to leave.

Fei Jue said, "You said here, so many years."

"It's been so many years.

"Here.

"Look here."

He broke off many times, repeated similar words many times, and finally added the epilogue.

"It hasn't changed at all."

"It is said that Polaris is the easiest to recognize, but I have never seen it, and the moon is also missing. I climbed to the highest and highest rooftop, and the closest thing is the plane."

Ni Qiu said: "It's hard to change here."

Fei Jue said: "Maybe a department store will be built in ten years' time."

Ni Qiu was skeptical about this: "It's hard, it's nearby...it doesn't look like someone would go to a department store."

"The funeral parlor can allocate half of it to build an office building, and it's also regarded as a place of geomantic omen, and the salesmen inside are very busy." Fei Jue chuckled, "Find a geomantic master to do it, maybe it's so popular that you have to queue up Enter."

"It's too exaggerated to queue up in a department store."

"Isn't making money just to spend money?" Fei Jue took a drag on his cigarette, bit his lips with a smile, "You can't take money with you."

"When you die, you can't take anything with you, and you have to be at the mercy of others."

Ni Qiu said, "Then I will be the fertilizer for the tree."

Fei Jue raised his hand, and the green smoke rose and flew into the air. He said, "I want to go to the moon!"

Ni Qiu smiled softly, put his hands behind his back, and walked briskly: "Yes, you have always wanted to be an astronaut."

"Cool enough." Fei Jue narrowed his eyes. "If I had to choose, I would choose to be born on the moon. From birth to death, I would never see another human being."

"Cool enough." Ni Qiu said in a soft voice.

Fei Jue blew the whistle, threw away the cigarette, and asked Ni Qiu: "You said if you had 100 million, what would you do?"

"100 million? Then how long do I have to count..." Ni Qiu raised his fingers, "Are they all coins or are they all 100 yuan?"

Fei Jue laughed and fiddled with Ni Qiu's hair, hooked his neck, pinched his black hair twice and twirled it in his hands: "I will definitely let you go to the barber shop for a haircut first!"

Ni Qiu chuckled, the two looked at each other and smiled at each other, Fei Jue let go of Ni Qiu until the corners of his mouth became sour from the smile.

Ni Qiu motioned him to look forward: "Here."

They came to the door of an orphanage.There are two other signs beside the signboard of the welfare home, which say "Orphanage" and "Nursing Home", and there are icons on them. A person in a wheelchair, neither male nor female, nor his age.

A yellow bark tree sticks out from the fence.

Fei Jue climbed over the wall and went in. While riding on the top of the wall, he grabbed a handful of yellow-skinned fruits.Not long after he gained a firm foothold in the fence, Ni Qiu also rolled in. Fei Jue threw him two yellow skins, took one and rubbed it on his clothes, and took a bite.

"It's so sour." Fei Jue frowned, not daring to chew carefully, and swallowed it whole.

"It moistens the throat even more." Ni Qiu said, he was also soured, his facial features were all wrinkled together, like a morning glory that hasn't seen the sun yet.

Fei Jue laughed loudly, wiped his hands on his clothes, and said, "You can pick out the merits of everything."

Ni Qiu wrinkled his nose and wrinkled his face and followed Fei Jue. After eating one, he went to eat another, his expression more painful.Fei Jue stopped by the sandy ground for people to play, looked at Ni Qiu and said, "You haven't changed either."

"Huh?" Ni Qiu seemed to be still immersed in the battle with Suan Huangpi, and couldn't hear clearly, so he asked Fei Jue again, "What did you say?"

Fei Jue waved his hands with a smile, and sat on a swing.

There are not only swings on the sand, but also climbing frames, spiral slides, and a spring pony.

Ni Qiu swallowed the last mouthful of yellow skin. He stood leaning on the swing, playing with the sand with his left foot, and asked Fei Jue, "Then what do you do with 100 million?"

The swing was too short for Fei Jue. He had to bend his legs and push his toes into the sandpit to swing back and forth.The swings are also very old, and the chains smell of rust.

"You talk a lot today." Fei Jue said.His arms hooked the swing chain and swung slightly.

His feet rubbed repeatedly on the sand, drawing two short, narrow arcs.

Ni Qiu lowered his head and occasionally looked at Fei Jue, but he didn't say anything, he built a small sand dune with his feet.

Fei Jue said: "I remember we used to discuss what to do with 100 yuan. I said I want to eat char siew crisps every day, and you said you want to buy a new pencil case."

Fei Jue curled up the corner of his mouth and looked up to the high place. In the distance, behind the woods was the fence, and behind the fence was the telephone pole.He stood up and stepped on the swing: "I used to want to be higher and farther, I wanted to know what was behind the wall, I wanted to know desperately, and I wanted to eat roast chicken, steamed fish, braised pork, three poached eggs for a meal, I also want new clothes, new shoes, find someone to drink soda with, watch a movie, and when the screen goes black, just shake his hand."

His chin was still raised high: "Now, we are discussing what to do with 100 million, strange, maybe the inflation is too strong.

"People can really get greedy."

Ni Qiu held the iron chain that bound the swing, Fei Jue looked at him, his eyes drifted across his face lightly, Fei Jue wanted to swing on the swing again, but Ni Qiu held the chain tightly. Tight, the swing let out a sharp scream.

Fei Jue laughed, jumped off the swing, took out an envelope from the back pocket of his trousers and handed it to Ni Qiu.

"I have something for you," he said.

Ni Qiu didn't answer, staring at Fei Jue, there was no sound and no wind.

"Open it in two days, there will be a surprise." Fei Jue said to himself, and stuffed the envelope into Ni Qiu's pocket. He stretched, turned around, and said, "I'll think about it for you. I paid 100 million, go to the barber shop first, get a more fashionable hairstyle, I will introduce you to a hair stylist, and then leave here... alone or two, whatever you want, leave here anyway.”

"Fei Jue." Ni Qiu chased up from behind, his voice trembling and the tip of his nose flushed.He returned the envelope to Fei Jue, but Fei Jue didn't want it. He rubbed Ni Qiu's neck and walked forward: "Little Niqiu, let's go!"

Ni Qiu caught up, and kept wiping his eyes with his hands. He asked Fei Jue, "Where are you going?"

"You decide for yourself, you can go wherever you want, study if you want to study, and do whatever you want!"

"Fei Jue..." Ni Qiu tugged at Fei Jue's sleeve, his head almost fell to his chest, and he was crying.

Fei Jue wiped his face, and Ni Qiu couldn't stop crying.They climbed over the wall and went to Maoji. No one spoke again, only Ni Qiu's sobbing sounded from time to time.

When they arrived at Maoji, Ni Qiu hid aside and sniffed, Fei Jue greeted Boss Mao, and chatted happily for a while, Boss Mao asked him to eat supper, but Fei Jue politely declined.

"Next time, come back next time when you have time." Fei Jue said, and went out through the back door.

As soon as Ni Qiu looked up, he ran out and stopped Fei Jue: "You must come!"

He waved vigorously at Fei Jue: "You must come!!"

He yelled out in his loudest voice.

This whole night, Ni Qiu was out of his mind, he didn't know what to do, the dishes were overcooked, and he got a lot of scolding from Boss Mao, and then Boss Mao called Alex to take Ni Qiu's place.Ni Qiu was so upset that she didn't leave. She stayed in the kitchen to help Alex, help Aunt Hui wash the dishes, and sometimes ran to the front of Zhuzhu's class. Alex's temper remained unchanged, he still rapped along while cooking, and listened to his rap music, the sound of the portable stereo was loud.Boss Mao couldn't help arguing with him again, this time the two didn't do anything, they just spat at each other in the kitchen.

Aunt Hui watched coldly, and said, "Oh, well, all the customers tonight are eating your mouth-watering porridge, Maoji's signature dishes, and they are the most proud."

Ni Qiu sat on the small bench and washed the dishes with her, drooping his head and said: "It's all my fault..."

Aunt Hui snorted, and handed him a handkerchief: "Wipe your nose, what are you doing, you got dumped?"

Ni Qiu sniffed and shook his head.

"Oh! It's so dirty! These customers are unlucky too! To eat saliva is not to count but to eat snot!" Aunt Hui picked up two bowls and dried them, and directly reached out and wiped the towel on Ni Qiu's face.Ni Qiu covered the towel and tucked the corners of her eyes, snatched the bowl from Aunt Hui's hand, and said, "I'll come, I'll come."

"Go home early if you don't want to do anything!" Boss Mao said abruptly, and Ni Qiu agreed lazily, working harder and harder, rushing to do everything, and kept busy until the end of work. Aunt Hui and the others all left, and he He also stayed to help Boss Mao mop the floor and tidy up the kitchen.

Seeing this, Boss Mao distributed some of the leftover ribs to Ni Qiu: "Let's go, let's go, just for these few ribs?"

Holding the take-out bowl containing ribs, Ni Qiu apologized to Boss Mao: "I didn't do a good job today, Boss, you can deduct my wages for today's wages at the end of the month."

Boss Mao trembled all over: "Nonsense! The food returned today, the money is on your head, let's go, go home quickly, please go buy a bag of ice packs for your eyes, and report to Brother Wang tomorrow , the next time he sees me, he will say that I abused the employees, it's none of my business!"

Ni Qiu was tongue-tied: "I... I have told Brother Wang many times that I was not careful, alas... he... Boss Mao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Wow!" Boss Mao pushed Ni Qiu out, with a shocked expression on his face: "Don't apologize to me anymore! Don't kowtow to me either! Go, go!"

After he finished speaking, he closed the back door, and Ni Qiu stood outside the door, looking at the takeaway bowl, where the ribs were still warm, warming his stomach through his clothes.

"Boss Mao..." Ni Qiu knocked on the door, "I'm really sorry today..."

"Stop saying I'm sorry! I'm begging you!" Boss Mao's voice was loud, as if he was angry, Ni Qiu immediately fell silent, hugged the plastic bowl containing the ribs tightly and ran towards home.

It was not yet dawn, and there was no sign of the approaching sunrise. Ni Qiu arrived at the door of the house and sat down at his usual place in front of the door.He ate a small piece of pork ribs, which was stewed until the meat was crispy and rotten. Ni Qiu read the newspaper, ate the meat and sucked the bones, and slowly ate all the small ribs.He licked his fingers, and suddenly heard a ding ding dong dong sound behind him, and the notes were pieced together, as if he was playing some music.

Ni Qiu poked behind him, only then did he realize that the door was unlocked, and there was even a gap left, through which the music came from.

Ni Qiu listened carefully, the music had already started to repeat, he looked into the room through the crack of the door.

There was a red light in the house, but it was just a cloud of light, tightly wrapped around a dark brown fur coat, which in turn wrapped around his mother.

The woman sat on the sofa with her legs spread apart, a floor lamp glowing red was placed on her toes, and beside the spherical floor lamp was an open music box, inside which seemed to be a small plastic figure in a white skirt. Spin around to the music.Under the frivolous and ambiguous red light, this villain cast a figure dancing on tiptoes on the wall.

"Ni Qiu...is that you?"

The woman's voice caught Ni Qiu off guard. He turned around in a panic, hugged his knees tightly, leaned against the wall, and buried his head under his arms.

"Ni Qiu..." The woman called out to him with an unusually soothing tone, "Come in, come in."

Ni Qiu supported the wall and stood up, he was a little dizzy, his vision was dark for a while, and he recovered after a while, he opened the door and went in.The woman whispered: "Close the door." "Come, come to mother." The woman said.

Ni Qiu walked over to the woman. The woman was only wearing the fur coat, which was unbuttoned, and half of her breasts were exposed.She slumped on the sofa and slightly raised her arms towards Ni Qiu.

"Let mom see you."

Ni Qiu came in front of the woman, her hands could not be fully raised, she half-raised her elbows on the sofa cushion, her fingers were shaking irregularly in the air.

Beside the woman are a spoon, a needle and a leather cord.

She pulled Ni Qiu to sit on her lap, hugged him, stroked his face, neck, kissed the top of his head, and pressed him to her chest.

"Son..." Her voice was tired at this moment, and she said dryly, "You know...Mom loves you, mother loves you..."

The woman's breasts squeezed Ni Qiu's face, and her hands kept rubbing Ni Qiu's hair. She asked so tenderly, but also so urgently.Panting heavily, she lifted Ni Qiu's face and looked at him: "You know that, right? Don't you pile up?"

Black ballerina dances on the wall.

The woman twitched and sobbed and said, "Let mom take a good look at you. You have grown up so much. Your dad must be shocked when he sees you. Oh, you look like your dad. Mom will take you to see you." You go to Canada, your father is there, Canada..."

The woman let go of Ni Qiu, and she tightened her fur coat, stroking the luxurious fur, and murmured: "It's so cold there, so cold."

Her hair was wet, and her neck was covered with sweat. There was no window in the room, and the heat was unbearable.Ni Qiu was still sitting on the woman's lap, and his feet touched the woman's sweaty calf.His spine arched involuntarily.

"Mom loves you...do you love me?" The woman raised her head and asked him, she grabbed Ni Qiu's hands excitedly: "You love me too? Promise mom, love me? Don't leave me... "

Ni Qiu hugged the woman, and the woman also hugged him, like a newborn baby, being careful and gentle.She hummed a nursery rhyme, slowly, distantly, humming, she fell asleep in Ni Qiu's arms.

Ni Qiu put the woman down, put a pillow on her, covered her with a blanket, and threw her spoon and needle downstairs.Back upstairs, he slept on his arm on a plastic cushion.It took him a while to fall asleep, half asleep, all he saw was the woman's fur coat, and his fingers still remembered the feel of it.As smooth as silk, as warm as the sun, as soft as a mother's embrace.

When falling asleep, he vaguely heard Fei Jue's voice.Fei Jue said that he wanted to be born on the moon, from birth to death, and he didn't want to meet another human being.After that, he also dreamed about Fei Jue, dreaming that he became a cold robot on the moon.No one loves him, and he has no ability to love. He has lived a life that does not understand pain.

In the morning, Ni Qiu was woken up by punches and kicks.When he opened his eyes, he saw the anxious figure of the woman. She was pacing back and forth in the room, rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

"Where's the stuff?? Where's my stuff??" The woman rushed over to question Ni Qiu.

"I don't know..." Ni Qiu protected his head. "Tell you to touch my things! Tell you to lie! Be as virtuous as your father! Liar! Liar! I can't kill you!" The woman grabbed Ni Qiu and slapped him. Ni Qiu clenched his lips and said nothing. Tired of beating, he left him, grabbed the key and went out.Ni Qiu got up from the ground and went to the toilet to rinse his mouth. His mouth was covered with blood, his tongue was broken, and one of his teeth was in pain.He brushed his teeth hastily, opened the window and looked downstairs, there were two lace bras hanging on the clothes rail downstairs, the curtains were drawn tightly.

Ni Qiu covered her cheeks, lay on the window for a while to enjoy the wind, hung up the woman's fur coat, and went out.

He went to work by bus. It was already past the morning rush hour and the bus was very empty. He sat by the window and watched TV.Suddenly, a real-time case was broadcast in the news, and a surveillance video with fuzzy quality appeared on the TV screen.

"The robbers in the eight major cases staged a surprise attack. They raided Longcheng Bank at 09:30 this morning, robbed 300 million in cash, and took a female hostage."

Bank video surveillance showed a man in white, with a gun in one hand and a backpack on his back, strangled a woman by the neck with the other and retreated from the bank to the street.

The woman's face is not very clear, but it can be seen that she is wearing a red skirt, a black sweater coat, a pair of high heels on her feet, a white patch on her nose, and bright red lips.

Ni Qiu jumped up from the chair, staggered, almost scrambled and rushed to the TV screen.

"Chu Qiao..."

He would not admit that the person who was kidnapped was Chu Qiao who lived downstairs.

Chu Qiao tried to free her hands wrapped around her back from the rope buckles on her wrists, but failed. Instead, she dislocated her right arm because she tried too hard to pull her right hand out.Chu Qiao gasped, and the wound on the bridge of her nose was stimulated by the tiny and rapid airflow in the nasal cavity, which also began to torment her.The throbbing pain in her hands and nasal bones triggered a series of chain reactions: Chu Qiao was sweating all over, she could even smell the sweat from her armpits; her hair was numb; her lips were bitten; One of her nerves spasmed, throbbing under her skin.She can feel it clearly.

Chu Qiao kicked off the high-heeled shoes on her feet with all her strength, freeing her feet from the leather shackles. She let out a long breath and stretched her toes, but the space in the trunk was so small that she couldn't fully straighten her legs .Chu Qiao raised her chin and took two deep breaths. In this dark and narrow airtight space, the oxygen was already very thin. The car braked suddenly, and Chu Qiao's head hit the back cover of the car, and the pungent gasoline smell hit her nose. , breathing becomes more difficult.Chu Qiao couldn't help coughing, her mouth was full of bloody smell, after biting her tongue just now, the tip of her teeth smashed her own tongue again.She swallowed the blood in her mouth with all her strength, and then stretched out her tongue to lick her lips. Her mouth was extremely dry, her eyes were dark, and the sound of rumbling engines could be heard in her ears. Occasionally, she could hear some whistles and brake pads rubbing against the ground rapidly. sound.The car probably drove into a parking lot, turning right for a while, then left for a while, Chu Qiao was completely at the mercy of centrifugal force, bumping back and forth in the trunk, dizzy badly, acid water welling up in her stomach.She resisted the urge to vomit, and silently said to herself: You can't vomit, you can't vomit here, you will be choked to death... you will choke to death...

She pinched her thigh and said to herself over and over again: Chu Qiao, take a deep breath, take a deep breath...take a deep breath...

She inhaled the cloudy smell of gasoline and exhaled the bloody smell of rust.

She inhaled, exhaled, took another deep breath, and exhaled slowly and heavily.

After turning the fifth corner, the car stopped.Someone opened the door and got out of the car. The door closed and the car was locked.Someone came over and pressed the trunk.Chu Qiao froze for a moment, she didn't move, and the person who pressed the trunk walked away, further and further away.

One, two, three... 35... 65...

After about 1 minute, the person's footsteps could no longer be heard.

Chu Qiao straightened her body like crazy and hit the trunk lid. She used her head, shoulders, knees, and tongue to press the tape that sealed her mouth.She wanted to shout out.

"Help!! Is there anyone! Call the police!"

"Help!!"

"Call the police!!"

But the surrounding area was too quiet, no matter how loud Chu Qiao made any noise, she would not get any response.She blinked, tears fell from her eye sockets, and the snot slipped through her vagina, it was cool, Chu Qiao closed her eyes tightly and bit her tongue, she ate her own blood, and it hurt.Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, then continued kicking the trunk, rolling around in the limited space.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Qiao sweated profusely, almost lacking oxygen, when the trunk lid suddenly opened.

A glaring light came in, Chu Qiao narrowed her eyes, and before she got used to the light, the lid was already closed.Chu Qiao twisted her body, her heart beat into her throat, her hands were sweaty, she was terrified——she saw the man's face!

At that moment just now, she saw the face of the notorious robber in the Eight Major Cases, who gave the police a headache, and the man who took her hostage!

The man's mouth was crooked, he was young, his hair was short, and he wore a row of earrings in one ear.He is very young.

The car engine lit up and the car started.Chu Qiao was trembling uncontrollably, she couldn't cry anymore, she had no strength and no time to cry.

She saw the robber's face, the face carefully concealed by the mask.

A cold war crawled all over Chu Qiao's body, her teeth were chattering up and down, her stiff hands became numb, she shook her head tremblingly.

The car started circling again, and then drove into a straight road. The speed of the car was not fast. In the distance, Chu Qiao heard the sound of a siren. Far away again, very far away.

The car did not stop and drove smoothly on the road.

Chu Qiao shrank her body very small, her forehead was pressed against her knees, and she couldn't hear any other sounds except her own heartbeat.

Her heartbeat seemed to be strung together into a sentence.She will die, she will die, she will die soon.Her Tahiti, her pearl necklace, she was dying, they were all dead.

Later, they drove on a bumpy gravel road. After driving for a long time, the back of Chu Qiao's head frequently hit the back of the car. As soon as the back cover was opened, she was pulled out of the car, and she knelt on the ground. There was a retching sound.The tape on her mouth was torn off, and Chu Qiao spat it out.

She was dizzy from vomiting, and she didn't stop until the yellow bile came out.

He handed her a bottle of water with one hand.

This hand is full of tattoos, the tattoos are Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, and looking back on the arm, Chu Qiao saw Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Chu Qiao lowered her head and knelt on the ground without moving.

"Woman, drink some water." The person who stretched out his hand spoke in a clear male voice.The man handed the bottle of mineral water to Chu Qiao's mouth, his tone sounded impatient.

Chu Qiao closed her eyes, raised her neck and said, "I didn't see anything! I didn't see your face!"

The man sneered, grabbed Chu Qiao's hair and fed her water.Chu Qiao drank so fast that the water choked her trachea, the man let her go and pulled her up from the ground.Chu Qiao coughed, her eyes were still closed, she only felt a yellow patch in front of her eyes, maybe it was a light, it was very bright, there was a lot of sand and a lot of paper on the ground, her bare feet hit some sticks with her toes.Not long after, she was pressed down by the man, and Chu Qiao's butt felt cold, and she sat on a chair.

The man patted her face and said, "Woman."

Chu Qiao shook her head: "I really didn't see anything."

The man pushed Chu Qiao's head, and said with disdain: "It doesn't matter, hey, what kind of flavor do you eat? I only have sesame oil and Kyushu here... Oh, Kyushu pork bone soup."

Chu Qiao swallowed her saliva and moved her heels.She heard the sound of plastic bags rubbing against each other, the man walked away for a while, then came back, he grabbed Chu Qiao's ankle.Chu Qiao shrank back subconsciously, the man clicked his tongue, Chu Qiao didn't dare to vent her anger, and the man buckled her feet into the shoes.Her high heels.

Chu Qiao quietly opened a slit to look out, and she saw a man squatting on the ground staring at her feet.The top of his head was blue, and his hands were clasped on his knees.He wears short sleeves, and his veins hide under the smiling faces of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck.

A yellow light flickered behind him.The man looked up.

Chu Qiao was startled and coughed wildly.

"Women, why do you women like to wear high heels so much?" the man asked.

Chu Qiao turned her head away in a panic, not looking at the man.This time, she saw the man's face very clearly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he looked like a high school student.

"What are you doing?" the man asked Chu Qiao.

Chu Qiao sniffed and said softly, "Aren't you going to let me go?"

"I rob gold shops, rob banks, and I'm not a serial killer."

"You killed someone when you robbed a bank!"

"That's because they prevented me from robbing the bank!" The man said confidently.Chu Qiao's voice couldn't help but also raised her voice: "I didn't prevent you from robbing the bank, just let me go! My family doesn't have any money, so even if you kidnap me, you won't get any money!"

The man became even more impatient, and said in a tough tone, "What kind of food do you eat?"

Chu Qiao's attitude softened immediately, and she begged for mercy, "Just let me go...I won't say anything...I won't say anything about your appearance..."

When the man slapped the table, Chu Qiao shouted, "Smell oil!"

The man laughed, and Chu Qiao turned her head away. There was a pain on the bridge of her nose. It turned out that the man had torn off the tape on her nose.

"Are you fighting?" the man asked, Chu Qiao smelled the smell of sesame oil packets.She said, "I was beaten."

The man didn't ask any more questions, he went to cook the noodles, Chu Qiao secretly looked at him, the man was cooking noodles in front of a gas stove with his back to her, and he was facing a blackboard with cartoon prints on it.There are some desks and chairs scattered around him. This is probably a classroom, but it has been abandoned, and the windows are covered with yellowed newspapers.Chu Qiao looked around her again. Behind her was a podium, and not far away was a door, behind which was a broom.After the man finished cooking the noodles, he pulled a desk in front of Chu Qiao. He untied Chu Qiao, and thrust his chin at her: "Eat."

With Chu Qiao's right hand hanging by her side, the man stared.Chu Qiao said, "It's dislocated."

The man walked over, pressed her shoulder with one hand, lifted her right hand with the other, and exerted force on his hand, Chu Qiao let out a muffled groan, and lowered her head heavily, her hair almost fell into the noodle soup.She almost fainted from the pain, but fortunately her arm was connected.

"Eat." The man sat across from Chu Qiao, holding chopsticks in his left hand and a gun in his right, eating in full swing.Chu Qiao took a sip of the soup first, her mouth was warm, and after she had the taste of food, she said, "Because it looks good."

"what?"

"High heel……"

"Haha!" The man wiped his face, he ate quickly, and swept down his stomach with a bowl of noodles. He put his legs on the desk next to him, and put the pistol on his lower abdomen. He looked at Chu Qiao and said, "Your answer I like it! Haha! Because it looks good!"

Chu Qiao bravely asked the man: "Then why did you rob the bank..."

The man's eyes slanted, and the corner of his mouth became even more crooked: "Because I like money."

He scratched in his trouser pocket, grabbed a shiny silver object and threw it to Chu Qiao.Chu Qiao caught it and looked straight, "Sapphire?"

"Send it to you, woman." The man grinned, "Isn't it pretty? Don't you like pretty things!"

Chu Qiao put the necklace on the desk, rubbed her eyes and asked the man, "You...you didn't go to that charity party, did you?"

"Didn't I say I'm going? Then I will definitely go."

Chu Qiao stretched her neck to look at him, trying to see him more clearly: "But didn't you just..."

The man was leaning against a desk with his hands folded on the gun. He frowned at Chu Qiao, as if he couldn't understand her logic: "So?"

"So...so you should...should..." Chu Qiao couldn't tell, she grabbed the sapphire pendant, "Don't you like money, so why don't you give it to me? This is very valuable, right?"

The man rolled his eyes: "This is not money."

He stood up, hiccupped, and walked over to the locker next to the blackboard.The locker was unlocked. The man opened the locker, grabbed a handful inside, turned around and threw it into the air.Colorful banknotes are flying all over the sky.

Chu Qiao's eyes followed the banknotes to a high place and landed on the ground. Only then did she realize that the papers she was stepping on—the papers on the ground were all money!

So much money, so much that it covered the ground, so much that her eyes could no longer calculate the total amount.

"I like money! I also like to tease people! Hahaha!" The man held out more banknotes, climbed onto the desk, opened his arms, and threw the money out.

Chu Qiao stood up, the bill fell on her hair, brushed against her shoulder, and floated over her instep, she reached out and grabbed a hundred-yuan bill.There was writing on the banknote.Three characters, childish handwriting, as if written by a school-age child.

"Hu, Zhi... Kuan..."

The man raised his head and took a deep breath intoxicated by the rain of banknotes all over the room: "Everyone calls me Xiaokuan."

Xiao Kuan looked at Chu Qiao, he was condescending, condescending, arrogant, crazy, his words and deeds were almost unimaginable.At this moment, Chu Qiao remembered a night in a certain convenience store, and she thought of You Ziwen who was lying in a pool of blood.He was dying, with a bruised nose and a swollen face for 1 yuan, and for the ten yuan lottery money.
