completely black and white

The hospital was still the same, and the smell of disinfectant lingered in the air, just like death and despair, entangled in everyone here like tarsal maggots.

In the intensive care unit on the sixth floor, few people moved around, only the sound of nurses pushing iron carts in the empty corridor.The nurse accidentally saw the girl sitting in a daze at the end of the bench, and couldn't help sighing, sighed a few words of pity, and then walked away, and no one went to say a word of comfort to the girl.

Birth, old age, sickness and death, and the impermanence of the world, they have seen it a long time ago, and no amount of sympathy has been used up long ago.

With a cup of hot water in his hand, Jiang Bai walked up to Yu Xiao and stuffed the cup into her hand, "Drink some, it won't be cold."

Yu Xiao took the water, "Thank you."

Her hair was still disheveled, and the wound on her face was covered with medicine. Even though she was not as embarrassed as before, she was not much better.

"Yu Xiao," Jiang Bai asked, "Are you and your mother okay?"

Yu Xiaoruo chuckled lightly, shook his head, "Not good."

"My mother saw the news of my father's death on TV. Her condition worsened and she is still in the ICU. As for me, you have seen it too. Because I am Yu Zhengpeng's daughter, I was excluded by my classmates. No one wants to be my friend. The person who used to be... who I thought was my best friend is now taking the lead in bullying me and insulting me..."

They will scribble the four big characters of drug dealer's daughter on your table, and they will continue to criticize her father's bad deeds, saying that they will avenge those who were separated because of her father's family, so school violence day after day here we go.She suddenly became a street mouse, everyone shouted and beat her, and people seemed to want to pay her the punishment her father deserved.

Jiang Bai looked at her, "Why didn't you hold them accountable just now?"

"Will it work?" Yu Xiao asked, wiping away her tears, "Will they believe me? Will they believe a drug dealer's daughter? Even if they pursue it, so what? They won't do anything to me again Is it? Will someone really take care of me and them?"

"Yu Xiao..."

"Reporter Xiaojiang, why? Why did it become like this?" The desperately suppressed crying finally broke through his hoarse throat, and Yu Xiao cried softly, with his hands propped on the chair, trembling uncontrollably.

"Since we were born, we thought that this world was beautiful. We thought that he would love everyone, and everyone would love each other, but it turned out to be not like that. It turns out that there are really people who turn their faces and deny others when they fall into trouble! Book Li always teaches us to be kind, and others will also treat you kindly. I, Yu Xiao, have never dared to hurt others since I was a child, and I am sincere to my friends around me, but what about them! They exclude my dad because he is a drug dealer Me, isolate me, commit violence against me, even those teachers! They will choose to turn a blind eye! Yes! My dad sold drugs, but what did I do wrong?"

Yu Xiao growled and expressed his doubts and hatred one by one, like a trapped little animal, hurriedly looking for an outlet to vent, "Why, why did you do this to me? I feel...I feel that I I can't even see the hope of life!"

Jiang Bai looked at Yu Xiao whose shoulders kept shaking, as if he saw the children in that warehouse many years ago who kept crying because of the loss of their father. They all cried so uncomfortable, so depressing and painful. There is no hope for life in the eyes.

He crossed his fingers, put his hands on his knees, and looked at the white wall in front of him, "Have you ever seen a child born in the Golden Triangle? There is a large poppy field there, and every family works in that field. Some children are just born today, and the next day they will be carried by their mothers to work in the fields. There are still guns, gunfire, blood that can't be washed, and bones that can't be buried. Haven't you seen it? , but they've all seen it."

Jiang Bai's voice is low and hoarse, obviously flat without any ups and downs, but it makes people feel that it seems to be suppressing extreme sadness and sadness.Yu Xiao gradually stopped sobbing and turned to look at him.

His outline is sharp and sharp, which is what a boy in his twenties should look like, but there is an unresolved sadness between his brows. He said, "From the moment they were born, they knew that this world is actually dark. , Cruel. Yu Xiao, compared to them, you are very good and happy. At least in the past ten years or so, you grew up in the palm of your hand. I know you don’t want to live now, but you You must also know that there are many more people in difficult situations in this world, but they still have to live, even if they can’t see the light, they still have to seek and chase.”

"You are going to take the college entrance examination. When the college entrance examination is over, you can take your mother away to a city where no one knows you. You can have a new start. Your future is bright and hopeful. You can't Stumbled by the current malice, you have to escape."

You just live in a country with a system and laws, and someone will protect you. As long as you still have hope for the future, you should live a good life.

When Jiang Bai came out of the hospital, it was already dusk outside, and there were very few pedestrians at the hospital gate, and no one wanted to go shopping in this day when the north wind was howling.

However, there was a familiar car parked in the parking space at the door, and the man was leaning against the door, with one hand in his pocket and a cigarette that was about to burn out between his knuckles.

He is tall and tall, with his legs stretched out at will, with no place to rest. He wears a jacket with a thin sweater inside in the winter.

From a distance, he saw Jiang Bai standing at the door motionless and looking at him, put the cigarette out and threw it into the trash can, and waved his hand at people.

Jiang Bai walked up to him, "Why are you here?"

Qin Ang asked him to get in the car first, the inside of the car was much warmer than the outside after all, he stood waiting for someone but was almost stiffened by the cold wind.

"I heard that Zhou Xiaoshu talked about Yu Xiao. I just got off work and came to pick you up."

Jiang Bai fastened his seat belt and muttered silently, "Go home."

Qin Ang was starting the car and couldn't hear clearly, "How is Yu Xiao?"

"Alive."

Hey, that's right, like an emotionless machine.Qin Ang glanced at him, but he didn't know who Zhou Xiaoshu said was the one who almost lost his temper in the city bureau at noon.

"Let me take you to dinner."

Jiang Bai withdrew his gaze from the window, teasing, "Hey, I finally remembered your agreement to treat me to a big meal, won't you go home and eat?"

Qin Ang thought for a while about the breakfast he made in the morning being disliked by someone, so he pursed his lips a little bit, and looked at the road ahead expressionlessly, "I can't afford you."

Jiang Bai frowned and smiled.

Actually, it's not a big meal, it's just a food stall on the side of the road with a long history. When Qin Ang was in college, he often invited Hu Yue and the others to eat here.He had some selfish intentions and wanted to take Jiang Bai to see his previous life.

The food stall built a red shed on the spot, and it was as warm as if the heater was turned on in the biting winter night.The boss is an elderly man who knows Qin Ang very well. When he sees someone, he is cheerful, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are crowded together, outlining the traces of time.

The uncle soon came out with a spicy crayfish, a few side dishes, and a bottle of shochu.

Qin Ang was about to fall, but was stopped by Jiang Bai, "Aren't you going to drive, what are you doing? Are you going to take the lead in violating the rules?"

Qin Ang smiled slyly at him, poured half a glass and handed it to Jiang Bai, "Then drink warmer."

Jiang Bai sneered, leaned over and lowered his voice, "Do you treat your boyfriend like this?"

"Yes." Qin Ang put gold on his face without any shame, "My boyfriend can still enlighten you!"

Jiang Bai leaned back on the back of the chair, folded his arms and raised an eyebrow at Qin Ang, "Oh, come on, let's see how you enlighten me?"

"I have seen a case before. A 17-year-old boy was coaxed to help deliver a drug that can be addicted through skin contact. To save time, he took the drug directly to school that day. After school, I took it directly to others on the pier. Later, there was a female classmate in their class, who accidentally touched his drug," Qin Ang peeled a shrimp for Jiang Bai, and continued, "The drug's medicinal properties can be used. The process is short, and the effect will be effective soon, and the unlucky female classmate happened to be relatively weak, and she convulsed as soon as she encountered it, and was rushed to the hospital by the teacher."

Jiang Bai's chopsticks held the crayfish in the bowl, "And then?"

"Then, we arrested that male classmate, and by the way, we asked about the drug sellers behind him. At that time, because the male classmate was underage, he was a minor, and he had excellent grades in school. It would be very difficult for him to take the college entrance examination next year. The possibility is that his school is the top three. So his parents and school teachers jumped out one after another, saying to give him another chance, saying that he is just a child, immature, easy to be deceived, and actually a victim.”

"At that time, everyone was arguing about the male classmate, but no one cared about the female classmate who accidentally took drugs. After I asked, I found out that some people said that the female classmate is usually in the society. How do you know if she wants to take drugs? Only then will they take the drugs brought by the male classmates.” Qin Ang paused, “You see, everyone is sorry for the male classmates, but no one thinks that the female classmates are the most innocent, just because her grades are not good. She looks like a little girl."

These things are all for later. Qin Ang did not fully participate in this case at that time, but only heard someone mention it by chance.At that time, he was still young, full of vigor, and hated evil like a vengeful enemy, how could he tolerate such a thing.So he went to Hao Ju and asked if the female classmate's future should not be compensated by the parents of the male classmate?

Hao Ju looked at him with his hands behind his back, his face was unclear, and it took him a long time to hear his sighing, "Qin Ang, you are still young, and you will see many such things in the future. Right and wrong are determined by others. Most of us There is nothing you can do about it.”

Qin Ang almost slammed the door and left in anger, and finally found that Hao Ju was right. They could catch criminals, but they couldn't stop some people's prejudice.

When a person makes a mistake and the law is about to convict him, the parents and the society stand in front of him, saying that he is just a child, and he is about to take the college entrance examination before he reaches adulthood. A bright future awaits him, so why ruin it because of a mistake?

What about that girl?Isn't she a child too?She is only 45 days away from the college entrance examination. Does she not have a bright future?

Just because she might not get good grades in the college entrance examination, she was thrown away like an abandoned child. No one cared whether she was in pain or not.This is probably the most thorough prejudice in the world, the prejudice against the female classmates who used to behave perversely, the prejudice against the identity of the drug dealer's daughter, because of a small opinion, a person's entire life is prejudiced.

Jiang Bai drank the glass of shochu on the table, and his throat was burned a bit.He smiled very lightly, "Funny."

"It's funny." Qin Ang didn't pour him any more, but put the shochu on the table under his feet, "In fact, you should have seen as many journalists as we do. You must also understand that what people think How important prejudice is, that's not something we can change."

"When I tell you this, I don't want to persuade you to adapt to reality or something. I want to say that most people in the world are like this, but what is lacking is people who have no prejudice and want to seek justice for those people, so someone who can stand It is a good thing to come out and speak for these victims, you have already stood up and done a good job, don’t blame yourself.”

Someone came in in the shed, and a gust of wind came in through the opened curtain, which made Jiang Bai's back feel chilly.

He shook his head, "I didn't do anything for her."

He didn't speak for Yu Xiao, he just cruelly persuaded people to live in such a desperate environment.

Qin Ang didn't speak any more.

In fact, they all understand that some things are not something they can change, just like that female classmate or Yu Xiao, they are like robins who died under the prejudice of the world.But this prejudice is the heaviest mountain in the world, and it is difficult to remove.

There was a sudden silence between the two, and a heavy feeling spread between them.

Jiang Bai glanced around the table, but he was a little disappointed that he couldn't find the opened bottle of shochu.He joked, "Captain Qin, you are not very good at enlightening people. Why do you feel like you have involved yourself?"

Captain Qin took a mouthful of the cold dish without changing his face, "I'm sorry, I overestimated myself."

Jiang Bai burst out laughing, even though the smile didn't reach his eyes.

Qin Ang always felt that the current Jiang Bai was a little different from when he was in prison.At that time in the prison, although the smiling face was actually a smiling tiger, and he was the kind who had no heart. People just looked close, but they were actually the most cruel.But when we met again this time, it seemed that I had a little more human touch, and I would sympathize with others. The smile was really from the heart, and the sadness was really sad.

Maybe it's an environmental problem, after all, there are some heinous people in the prison, but here, it's all sentient beings.

When Qin Ang thought of this, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

When Jiang Bai saw it, he thought he was enjoying something, and knocked on his bowl with chopsticks angrily, "What are you doing? I'm still so sad, why are you laughing?"

Qin Ang peeled the shrimp by himself as if nothing had happened, "It's all right."

Jiang Bai snorted.

At this time, Qin Ang's cell phone rang, and his hands were full of red oil, so he asked Jiang Bai, who was not responsible for peeling after eating, to come over to answer the call for him.

Cannibal has a soft mouth and short hands, Jiang Bai took out his mobile phone for him without saying a word, swiped it to answer it, and approached his ear.

I only heard Hu Yue's voice from inside, "Qin Ang, Liu Ze promised to see you, remember tomorrow afternoon!"

Meanwhile, in the hospital——

The nurses were leaning on the counter in twos and threes, playing with their mobile phones and chatting. In the corridor, only Yu Xiao was still sitting on the bench, not moving for a long time.She was pale, staring at her hands tightly, thinking about Jiang Bai's words carefully.

He was right, she still has a future, she still has a mother, as long as the college entrance examination is over, she can take her mother away from here to start a new life, there is still light in her world!

At this time, there was a sound of leather shoes stepping on the tiles in the corridor. The person came with steady steps, and there seemed to be another person behind him.

Suddenly, the pair of leather shoes appeared in front of Yu Xiao.Yu Xiao looked up and saw a well-dressed man standing in front of him.

The man in a suit and leather shoes, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his straight nose, and his hair combed meticulously, is looking at Yu Xiao with interest with a gentle smile at the moment.

Yu Xiao got up, searched his memory and had not seen such a person, and asked doubtfully, "Are you..."

The man smiled slightly, "I'm here to help you."
