-Volume Three-

Five years later, Falfish Bar.

In the dark corner of the men's toilet, a human-shaped object was curled up, and beside it was a small dirty table. A yellowed towel was placed on the edge of the table, and various brands of cigarettes were piled up beside the towel. There are all kinds of lighters.

A man reeking of alcohol came out of the compartment.The man was belching intoxicatingly, and while fastening his belt indiscriminately, he walked towards the sink.The figure in the corner moved, then stood up tremblingly, picked up the cigarettes and towels on the table, and quietly moved behind the man: "Sir..."

The man suddenly trembled in fright, turned around suddenly, and saw a man with several scars lying on the left side of his face, who was looking at him gloomyly, motionless, completely sober, and yelled: "Your uncle, what's wrong with you?" Sick!"

The weird man didn't speak, and moved towards the man with a cigarette and a towel.When the man saw the yellowed towel, he felt sick in his heart, and when he felt sick, he wanted to light a cigarette, so he snatched the cigarette from the strange man's hand, turned around and was about to go out.

"Sir," the weird man chased after him, "please pay."

The man turned around and stared at him: "It's fucking unlucky. How much is it?"

"fifteen."

The man cursed and took out two ten-yuan bills from his trouser pocket, and threw them in the weird man's face: "Don't look for it!" He opened the door with a cigarette and strode out.

The two ten pieces were flung lightly into the weird man's face, and then fell lightly onto the dirty and wet toilet floor.The weirdo blinked slightly, straightened his upper body and squatted down slowly, groped with his right hand on the ground, finally touched the two ten pieces, squeezed them in the palm of his hand, straightened his upper body and stood up again, stuffing the money into his pocket .

He was about to turn around and go back to sit in the corner when the toilet door was suddenly kicked open from the outside, and an impatient voice sounded: "Brother Wei is looking for you, hurry up!"

His footsteps paused, and then he gave a low "oh", walked out of the toilet, and walked to Li Wei's office.

It can be seen when he walks, his walking posture is really weird, his feet are dragging on the floor, and he is limping.A voice came from behind him, and undisguised disgust entered his ears: "A useless person."

He pretended not to hear, limped upstairs, limped to the door of Li Wei's office, and knocked.

Li Wei's voice came from inside: "Come in."

He opened the door, Li Wei was sitting on the sofa drinking wine, and waved to him as soon as he came in: "Come on, Chu Ruo, drink with brother."

Chu Ruo stood in front of Li Wei, with a smile on his face: "Okay." In fact, his current body does not allow him to drink too much alcohol, and he himself knows that once Li Wei asks him to drink, he will let him drink to death , but he still sat down, skillfully poured wine for Li Wei and himself, touched the glass with Li Wei, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.

Li Wei also drank the wine, but only took a sip before putting down the glass, took a clown mask from the side and handed it to Chu Ruo: "Look, you forgot to bring this again."

Chu Ruo took it, put on the clown mask with a weird smile, and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Wei, I won't do it next time."

"Although you didn't go out to work in the lobby, you still have to meet customers in the toilet, right?" Li Wei said with a smug mouth, "Besides, you will have a performance later, how can you not have a mask when you have a performance? Don't let your real face scare the guests. "

"Yes." Chu Ruo responded, filled another glass of wine for herself, and lifted it up, "I will punish myself."

Li Wei lazily watched Chu Ruo drink up the wine, then coughed violently, and replied, "Good boy."

Chu Ruo put down the wine glass and wanted to smile, but realized that she was wearing a mask, and the other party couldn't see the smile, so she stopped smiling.

Li Wei raised his hand and looked at the watch on his wrist: "It's almost time, let's go."

Chu Ruo nodded, stood up, turned around, and limped towards the door.

Li Wei was behind him, and after watching for a while, he suddenly called: "Chu Ruo."

Chu Ruo stopped, turned around and said, "Brother Wei."

"Work hard," Li Wei said, "don't forget who saved you, gave you something to do, and gave you a place to sleep."

Chu Ruo was quiet for a while, and then said: "Brother Wei's kindness to me, how could I forget?"

Li Wei smiled in satisfaction, and raised his jaw: "Go."

Chu Ruo walked out of the room, closed the door behind her back, and walked downstairs.

The first floor is the hall, with colorful lights shining randomly, the loud music almost toppled the roof, countless people twisting and reveling on the dance floor, the boxes and in front of the bar are full of drinking customers .Chu Ruo walked to the first floor and was about to go to the backstage when an arm climbed on her shoulder. Li Lekai's sticky voice came into his ears: "Ruoruo."

Chu Ruo let him climb, but he couldn't walk anymore, so he could only look back at him: "What's wrong?"

Li Lekai's eyes were messed up by alcohol, but he still knew what he wanted to ask.He lowered his voice and asked in Chu Ruo's ear, "Did my brother bully you again?"

"No," Chu Ruo's voice sounded extremely dull under the mask, "Brother Wei is very good to me."

Li Lekai frowned, stared at the mask on Chu Ruo's face for a while, and suddenly lost his temper and tried to tear off the mask: "Why do you wear this thing? You can't wear it, don't wear it!"

Chu Ruo grabbed his wrist, not letting him move: "Be good, Xiao Kai, don't move."

Li Lekai hung on him, and apologized vaguely: "My brother is an asshole...I apologize to you on my brother's behalf..."

Chu Ruo sighed, waved back, and Dahei came up.

While coaxing Li Lekai, he handed Li Lekai to Dahei.Dahei carried Li Lekai skillfully on his shoulders, and left the bar without saying a word.

Chu Ruo straightened the mask on her face, took a deep breath behind the mask, and walked into the small dressing room in the backstage.

It is said to be a small dressing room, but it is just transformed from a small and cramped utility room. It is full of cleaning tools such as brooms, mops, and buckets. Paint, and make-up brushes that are so dirty they don't look right.

Chu Ruo is very thin now, so he squeezed in without much effort, sat down at the table, took off the mask in front of the yellowed and dirty mirror, picked up the makeup brush and dipped it in paint, and was about to paint on his face.

His face was destroyed again. Although the fire didn't burn his face, the few cuts Chu Hua made at that time still left scars.

Thinking of the explosion five years ago, Chu Ruo didn't know if she was lucky.The explosion shattered the basement, smashing the floor of the basement. His whole body was already covered in fire, but the next second he fell into the cold underground river.The river immediately extinguished the fire on his body, and he saved his life, but the scars left by the fire could never be removed.

Later, he drifted out with the river, was picked up by passers-by and sent to the hospital.No one recognized him as the Chu Ruo who became popular when he first debuted, and later caused a sensation all over the country because of his background and kidnapping incident, because at that time his face was dripping with blood and his face was difficult to distinguish.The doctor revived him who was dying, and asked him to pay the fee when he woke up.Chu Ruo could remember many people's phone numbers, Ren Chuming's, Chinese's, Liu Guo's, Gao Rongsen's, but he finally gave the hospital Li Lekai's number.

Brothers Li Lekai and Li Wei came to the hospital to pick up Chu Ruo and hid them in the Feimu bar.As soon as Li Wei saw that Chu Ruo was no longer the delicate and imaginative appearance before, he arranged for Chu Ruo to go to the toilet to sell cigarettes after Chu Ruo got better.

Except for Li Lekai and Li Wei, and a big black, no one knows Chu Ruo's true identity.Now Chu Ruo has another name.

The whole world thought that Chu Ruo was dead. After all, the fire caused a sensation all over the country at that time, and the news of Chu Ruo's death also swept the headlines of all platforms that night.

Tianxing also held a memorial service for Chu Ruo, whose body could not be found.

Li Wei turned on the TV to watch the broadcast of the memorial service, and wanted to drag Chu Ruo to watch it together.Li Lekai couldn't bear it, and pulled Chu Ruo out again, not letting him see.

Later, when Chu Ruo was sleeping in the utility room, she turned on her mobile phone, and then saw the black and white photo of herself hanging high in the mourning hall.

He also saw Liu Guo, Hua Wen, He Fang, Gao Rongsen, and some people he didn't know at all.But he searched all the videos and pictures about the memorial service on the Internet several times, but he couldn't find Ren Chuming.

Ren Chuming did not attend his memorial service.

Chu Ruo, who learned such a piece of information, was neither sad nor happy.

After Chu Ruo painted the last bit of skin on his face with white paint, the person at the bar came over and called him: "Xu Rong, are you alright?"

Chu Ruo responded, put on the mask and costume, and went outside.

There was a high platform in the middle of the dance floor, on which three or two male models with no clothes on their upper body and bodybuilding muscles were standing.These models were all invited by Li Wei to dance on stage during this period.A circle of men under the stage cheered and whistled and cheered at these men on stage, all of them had drunken looks on their faces.

In contrast, Chu Ruo, who was dressed in a clown's clothes, looked out of place, but Li Wei asked Chu Ruo to go on stage every time.Without him, it's just Li Wei's bad taste.

Those applause and whistles are for the models, while the boos and ridicules are for Chu Ruo who is trying to be funny.

Chu Ruo's face was expressionless under the mask and oil paint.He walked up to a model on the left for a while, stretching out his hand to touch the chest muscle of the other person. After being blocked by the model, he shrugged exaggeratedly and touched his own chest; He looked up at the model's abs with his cheeks, pointed at the model and looked at the audience. The audience was also amused, pointing at Chu Ruo and scolding "obscene clown".

Chu Ruo crouched there, letting those people point at him and laugh.

Suddenly, someone jumped onto the stage and came straight towards Chu Ruo.Chu Ruo immediately stood up, wanting to back up, the man strode up to Chu Ruo, stretched out his hand to lift off his mask, and after seeing Chu Ruo's mask was still a clown makeup, he was stunned and threw the mask on On the ground: "What the hell!"

Chu Ruo twitched the corner of her mouth, squatted down to pick up the mask.

But when he stood up, the man pressed his hand on his buttocks, and even pinched it: "Seeing that you are in good shape, why don't you stay with brother and me tonight?"

Chu Ruo backed away a bit, avoided the man, patted her chest, made a frightened look, and then waved her hands.

The man grabbed Chu Ruo's wrist, and continued to slander: "It's your luck that I think highly of you, don't be a fucking jerk, come with me!" As he spoke, he was about to pull Chu Ruo off the stage.

Chu Ruo's body is not as good as before, and she is powerless to resist being dragged by a grown man who weighs more than 200 kilograms.He can't struggle too violently, after all, this is Li Wei's field, and Li Wei doesn't allow him to offend the guests.

Chu Ruo begged the man in a low voice: "Guest, can you go down first? I'm still working..."

"Why do you still work?" The man said arrogantly, "A night with me, I am happy, and you still have no money?"

There was a model next to them who couldn't stand it any longer. She danced and approached them, and then lay between the man and Chu Ruo, twisting her body facing the man.

The man finally let go of Chu Ruo, and turned to hook up with the model.

Dahei sent Li Lekai home. When he came back, he just saw this scene and quickly gestured for Chu Ruo to step down.Chu Ruo stepped off the stage, passed through the extremely excited crowd, and walked backstage.
