Doomed

Shen Chengyao closed the door heavily, even the floor shook.As soon as she closed the door, she plunged into Shen Yang's arms, gritting her teeth to keep her tears from falling.Shen Yang put his arms around her silently, just like when he was a child.

This small room was filled with his aura before he left, but now it has been covered by traces of Shen Chengyao's life.But Shen Chengyao deliberately set aside a corner for him.More than half of the books in the bookcase were left by Shen Yang, and Shen Chengyao's own books were piled up on the ground, as if she didn't want to squeeze Shen Yang's books out.Shen Hang stared at those old books.He remembered that he was in this small room, flipping through the wrinkled books over and over again on that hot summer day.That was the most tense time for him, because he was leaving the house.One exam can get him out of here.At that time, Shen Chengyao was only 9 years old, wearing a small vest and lying beside him, her two braids were messed up.

Shen Chengyao, like Shen Yang, has no friends.

Shen Yang hugged Shen Chengyao tightly, pressed his lips to the top of her head, and said in pain, "...I'm sorry."

Mother Shen and Pang Hui, who had been kicked out of the door, sat on the sofa outside and were extremely embarrassed.Shen's mother said with some embarrassment: "You... what do you want to drink, I'll go..."

"No need." Pang Hui's voice was a bit cold, and even the polite words scared Mother Shen too much to move.Pang Hui slowed down and said, "Just call me Pang Hui."

Mother Shen was still very nervous.Her hands were twisted together, her nails were picking at her clothes, and her eyes kept glancing at the clock on the wall.She asked with some trepidation: "Beside...officer, Shen Yang...really nothing...what's the matter?"

Pang Hui was a little upset, but he couldn't treat Shen Yang's mother with an attitude of interrogation and questioning.He had no choice but to say in a very stiff way: "Shen Lang was once falsely imprisoned, and now he has left the prison. His political career has only this stain deliberately added by others, and there is nothing more."

Shen's mother looked a little uneasy, but she got up and said, "I'll pour you a glass of water, ah."

Pang Hui watched her clumsily go to pour water, but turned around in the cabinet for a long time.When she took out a cup, she shook her hand, and the cup immediately fell down.Mother Shen closed her eyes tightly, waiting for the "pop", but nothing happened.Pang Hui held the cup in his hand, went to the water dispenser to get a cup of water, put it in front of Shen's mother's seat and said, "You drink it yourself, I'll drink the cup of Ah Hang."

Mother Shen stared, unable to react for a while.She watched Pang Hui put the glass of water that Shen Yang used before in front of her, and couldn't help but her face became stiff.After this came out, the atmosphere immediately became freezing point, Pang Hui felt that he didn't want to talk any more, and Shen's mother had called her husband with a text message before, and now she kept looking at the clock.

Pang Hui finally said: "You are Shen Yang's mother, why did you tell untrue lies to your daughter?"

"Lies...?" Mother Shen froze for a moment, then trembled, and said, "No, it's not a lie..." She was a little vague, as if hesitating.

Pang Hui saw her worries, and opened his mouth and said, "I know about Shen Yang since he was born. You said that he killed someone when he was ten years old. This is not true."

Seeing that Pang Hui actually knew about this, Shen's mother showed a hint of shock on her expression.She twisted her hands, and finally said slowly: "Officer next to you...you know he is not a normal person, he has the ability to kill people since he was a child..."

"He didn't kill anyone." Pang Hui's face was very cold. When he said each word, his cold eyes almost made Shen's mother tremble with fright. "He just has the ability to predict bad luck, which we have repeatedly identified."

Mother Shen trembled, but she didn't shut up.She opened her mouth, as if she had made up her mind, and tried her best to say: "No, Shen Yang is not the ability to predict. He killed his cousin when he was ten years old. He is not a normal person!"

The lines of Pang Hui's face were unbelievably hard.He looked at Shen's mother and said nothing.

During the minutes of their stalemate, a heavy sense of oppression permeated the room.Shen's mother's eyes were red, and she tremblingly said: "What are you doing here... Are you a policeman... Why are you with a murderer..."

Pang Hui's fists were pinched with blue veins.He showed his ID and put it in front of Shen's mother. At this moment, the door opened.A man came in from outside.

As soon as Shen Yang's father stepped in, his eyes fell on Pang Hui, and then he looked around, but he didn't see the shadows of Shen Yang and Shen Chengyao, so his eyes fixed on the door of the small room Stay for a while.He already knew about the arrival of Pang Hui and Shen Lang, so he walked towards Pang Hui, stretched out a hand and said, "Hello."

Pang Hui got up and held his hand, a little hard, which made the other person's face change.Pang Hui said, "I'm sorry, I'm a soldier, so I don't know what to expect."

Shen's father waved his hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Then Shen's mother got up immediately, greeted her husband as if fleeing, and hid in the master bedroom.

Father Shen is the backbone of this family. He was a college student back then, and once made Shen Jiadai very proud.But when he left Shenjiadai, not many people sent him off.He and his wife took root in the city together, and seemed to be a high-class person, but the relationship with his family was completely weakened.

"My name is Pang Hui." Pang Hui introduced himself, and showed his ID to Father Shen.

Shen's father's attitude is much calmer than Shen's mother.He nodded calmly and said, "Shen Yang is under your care."

Only then did Pang Hui's tense nerves relax a little bit, but then, Shen's father said: "I hope to sign a document to sever ties with him. He has been unwilling to sign before. Now, under the witness of the police officer , I hope he can be more obedient."

Pang Hui was stunned.He didn't know that there was such a past between Shen Yang and his father.He slowly clenched his fists again, and said in a low voice: "You and Shen Yang are direct blood relatives, and the law cannot dissolve the parent-child relationship between you. Any contracts and documents are legally invalid."

"So he killed someone, so we need our family to help him take the blame?" Father Shen's voice raised, "We don't want to have any contact with him anymore. It's better to have compulsory restraint. He is too dangerous, I Afraid of harming our family. Whether he lives or dies in the future has nothing to do with our family."

"Shen Yang didn't kill anyone," Pang Hui couldn't help it, and emphasized again, "He has been out of danger and has been released from prison. He should have told you the last time he came here."

Father Shen was also a little excited.He forcibly suppressed his anger, trying to use reason to make the police officer understand them.

"Police officer, you have also seen it. We were wrong when he was young. We didn't bring him with us, and let him learn bad things and cause disasters. But we also brought him to the city later. We only had one Kid, I haven't reported the crime, but now we have Yaoyao. We can't let our healthy daughter have a brother who committed murder. And you see what he did? He killed more than one person We worked so hard to raise him and let him get into the university he wanted, but what happened? He went directly to the police force and killed people right under the noses of the police! This is a murderer!"

"Enough!" Pang Hui shouted angrily.He stood up and said forcefully: "Shen Yang has never killed a single person, you have never heard what he said. If you continue to treat your daughter like him, Shen Chengyao will one day become a withdrawn character like Shen Yang " Pang Hui went to the small room and called twice: "Ah Rang! A Rang!" Then he saw Shen Rang open the door, with Shen Chengyao hanging on his arm.

Pang Hui held back his anger and said, "Let's go."

Shen Yang did not refute.He firmly and forcefully pulled his hand out of Shen Chengyao's arms, regardless of Shen Chengyao screaming "brother", he walked towards Pang Hui, and cast a gloomy look at Shen's father.Father Shen felt his whole body was frozen, and couldn't help but took a step back in fear.

"I want to ask you a few words." Shen Yang said suddenly.

Shen's father was stunned for a moment, and anger came from it, he took a step forward and slapped Shen Lang on the face.

There was a "pop", the sound was clear and loud.Shen Hang tilted his head, his hair covered half of his face.Both Shen Chengyao and Shen's mother were stunned, and Pang Hui was even more shocked.But he immediately came back to his senses, pulled Shen Lang to his side, brushed his bangs away with his hand and looked carefully at his red and swollen cheeks, the anger and impulsiveness in his eyes could hardly be suppressed.

Shen Lang was silent for a while, then turned his head and continued, "Where were you last night?"

"What do you mean? Ah?" Father Shen roared, "Are you qualified to ask me a question?!"

"Answer me." Shen Yang stared at him indifferently and sinisterly, half of his face was flushed, but his momentum did not weaken at all.Father Shen almost exploded with anger.Pang Hui realized what Shen Yang was going to do at this time, but he also felt that he was going to explode.Shen Yang's parents thought he was a murderer, but Shen Yang still wanted to make predictions for them both!The parents never knew why Shen Yang made the prediction and what kind of pain he would suffer... For the first time, Pang Hui had such a strong desire to use violence.

"Where were you last night?" Shen Yang repeated again.

The atmosphere in the room was tense, and Shen's mother was too scared to speak. Shen Chengyao stood behind Shen Yang, holding his arm tightly. Although she didn't dare to speak, she stood firmly on Shen Yang's side.

Pang Hui said: "Mr. Shen, please cooperate with our work."

"Cooperating with the work?" Shen's father was full of absurdity, "What kind of work is this?! What qualifications does he have to ask me?"

Pang Hui gritted his teeth, and said coldly: "Then, as a special police officer, I will ask you about my subject Shen Yang."

"Mr. Shen, where were you last night?"

Father Shen's face flushed red, as if he couldn't breathe.At this time, Shen's mother said with a trembling voice: "Just ask, ask a few questions, okay? I, can I answer?"

Shen Lang glanced at her, then looked at him with dark eyes, and said, "Where was it at 07:30 last night?"

When Shen's eyes met his eyes, she shrank back in a panic, as if she saw something extremely terrifying.She said: "In, in the company..."

"What did you have for breakfast this morning?"

"Eggs, white porridge, some dishes from last night..."

"Is the first person you meet when you walk out of the community today a man or a woman?"

"...This...a man, a man."

Shen Yang asked a dozen random questions slowly and mechanically, and then he stopped. "My question is over."

Pang Hui glanced at him slightly uneasy.

Shen Yang didn't say anything, and walked towards the door.The two went out one after another, and then Shen Yang stood outside the door, looked at Shen Chengyao and said, "This is my last time here."

Shen Chengyao, who kept waving her arms, was blocked by Shen's mother and Shen's father at the door, and Shen's father looked at Shen Lang like a scourge.

"I'm innocent." After Shen Yang said this, he left without looking back.

Pang Hui felt as if his chest had been hit hard by a fist.He knew how much pain and sadness these words contained.Shen Lang once said this to Pang Hui firmly and lowly in that airtight prison, and he sealed all his trust and self-deprecation into this sentence.Pang Hui realized that Shen Yang was not indifferent to family.On the contrary, he cared too much about the family.Tears flowed all over Shen Chengyao's face, she sobbed and called out "Brother" loudly, but Shen Yang walked faster and faster.

Pang Hui strode to keep up with him, caught up with him at the bottom of the corridor, and hugged him in his arms.

Shen Yang didn't struggle, he stood upright for a while, then raised his arms and hugged Pang Hui tightly, and buried his face deeply in Pang Hui's chest.

After Shen Yang and Pang Hui came out of the tube building, they once again received the attention of many residents in the community.Pang Hui is almost certain that Shen Yang is isolated here.The trial of Shen Yang's case was open to the public. People all over the country know about this case as long as they read the news. He is not an unknown person.The greater his deeds, the more reviled he will receive after his overthrow.In this community where he has lived for more than ten years, almost all the residents know him.

Pang Hui remembered the time when he forced Shen Yang to go home.He couldn't help regretting, thinking that Shen Yang had been treated like this when he returned home through half of China alone, he couldn't help but hug Shen Yang's shoulders tightly.He really wanted to say sorry to Shen Yang, saying that he would never force Shen Yang to go home again, and that he would never get close to this inland place.At this moment, he suddenly rejoiced that Shen Yang's father wanted to sever ties with him, and Shen Yang had no reason to go home again.this is the last time.

When Shen Yang and Pang Hui got into the car, they heard a slight cry from a distance.Shen Yang immediately raised his head.Shen Chengyao yelled at him from the window halfway across the neighborhood, half of her body leaned out.Pang Hui vaguely heard her say: "...wait for me...brother..."

Shen Hang's face was facing out of the window, and his eyes were cast on the small figure in the distance, the black in his irises seemed to melt away.
