Chapter 9 Dark Tide (1)

undercurrent.

The dim and turbulent light, the wet and cold rain eroded every corner of his body, and the young Yi Huai was led to run back and forth in the dark alley.

Every time the fierce headlights of the car shone in, the woman who pulled him would crouch in panic, covering herself with trash cans, begging no one would notice their presence.

They kept running in the dark, and when they couldn't run, they dragged their heavy bodies and continued to go to the far end, far away from lights and hustle and bustle.

Suddenly she stopped, squatted down and buried her head between her legs, her shoulders kept shaking, and a hysterical sob came out of her throat.She cried for a long time until the rain turned light. When she raised her head, he looked at her blankly and wanted to ask when they could go home.He was so tired, cold, and hungry, and he couldn't remember the last time they sat comfortably together for a meal.And why hasn't dad come to pick them up?Didn't dad say he loves him and mom the most?Why can he let them suffer like this outside?

He just opened his mouth and said a word, the woman's body trembled violently, "Shh, be good, be good, don't make a sound."

The woman's hand covering his mouth was icy, like a heavy rain, leaving no gaps.The more he struggled, the tighter the woman's grip became, the lack of oxygen caused large blood-red spots to appear in front of his retina, and the strength of his hands and feet was gradually being pulled away.Fortunately, she didn't lose her mind completely, and let go of him before he passed out, "I'm sorry, I... I'm too scared, I didn't mean it, I didn't mean it, I didn't want to kill you..." She hugged her shoulders , repeating words like "I'm sorry" and "I didn't mean to" upside down.

When she was young, she was a well-known beauty, with black hair and snow skin, and passionate red rose lips. Even after more than ten years after she got married and had children, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, but now this beauty is constantly being anxious In just half a month, she became emaciated, like a skeleton covered with human skin, her big eyes bulged out like the eyes of a dead fish, and her side was covered with cobwebs. With dry and fine lines, "The person who can save us is dead." She inserted her thin fingers into the wet hair and tore hysterically, "That person is dead, he is dead, everything is over!"

"Death...does it hurt?" The fear of suffocation surged into his heart again, and he stepped forward quietly, trying to wrap his thin arms around her.

Eleven or twelve-year-olds can already understand many things, including death, never to be seen again.

"Maybe, some are very painful, some are just for a moment." The woman's body trembled for a moment when he touched him, as if the embrace was in danger, "I hope it won't hurt too much, but that's impossible .”

Here it comes again, the dreadful dread that follows you everywhere.He tried his best to drill into her arms, "Why?" Why did such a thing happen to them?

"Because Luo Yi can't let us go." The woman held him in her arms, placed her chin on top of his head, and said dreamily, "He will return ten times and a hundred times the suffering that person has suffered to those of us who betrayed us." on the person."

Her embrace is not as warm as it used to be. If you insist, it is like water plants at the bottom of a deep lake, entangled and dragging him to the deepest part of the abyss.

"I did a lot of things wrong, so these are the punishments from God... I only have you, you must not have any accidents. You must not have any accidents, I can do anything, as long as you can be safe, I can do anything .”

She would do this even if her soul could not be reborn forever.Yi Huai, who hadn't heard the meaning of cruelty, still shuddered, and pressed his cheek against her neck, "Mom, don't cry, I will protect you."

How did he know that this child's promise was like a rope made of sand, sending her to the gallows.

Dong dong dong, Yi Huai raised his head and yelled in.

It was someone from below who came to deliver work materials. He pointed to the empty space on the left side of the table and said that he didn't have time to read it for the time being. "Just put it here."

Although he can't get in touch with the core part of Luo Yi's business, it doesn't mean that he can be a parasite every day.He majored in finance at university, with a minor in accounting and taxation. Luo Yi probably wants to double the money he invested in him in the past few years, and he has been using him as a cheap labor force since the first year he graduated and returned to China.

On weekdays, he would get up before seven o'clock in the morning. He would drive Luo Yi to the company first, and then there would be countless trifles waiting for him. It would be a great joy to be out of the company before seven o'clock in the evening. Go home and have a look at work It's a new day after washing and sleeping.

For example, today, he took a half-hour break after lunch to prepare for the afternoon meeting.

The meeting started at three o'clock. Before that, he had to go through the materials again to ensure that there would be no business trips during the negotiations... Obviously there were so many things to do, but his thoughts drifted involuntarily to the distance.

After returning from Wen Zhengting's birthday banquet last week, he has been thinking about these past events that were forcibly forgotten.

His father, Yi Sheng, worked under Luo Yi's father, Luo Guanying. If he did well, he would have a bright future, but he was bought by Luo Guanying's enemies and helped them plant a bomb on the car Luo Guanying often sat in.

Luo Guanying was blown to pieces, and Yi Sheng was not much better. He was sent to the ICU with only one breath left, trying to extract the real murderer's name from him.

On the first seven days, Luo Guanying's only son, Luo Yi, returned to China, and in the mourning hall, he said in front of everyone that he wanted to avenge his father.

Since he wanted revenge, he had to start with the people around Yi Sheng first.Yi Sheng's wife Yang Yixuan fled with her son in advance because of the tip-off from the Luo family nanny, leading him to live a life of escape for a period of time.They didn't spend a day in the same place during that time.Sometimes they are still sleeping in the dilapidated small hotel in the morning, and in the afternoon they have to take the crowded and greasy bus to the remote countryside where he can’t even pronounce the name. Because of the children and women, even if they pay extra for the ticket There are also people who have the cheek to come and rub their seats.

Luo Yi's people were everywhere, and they would have been caught several times if they hadn't been tipped off by well-meaning people nearby.

After running away like this for almost a month, their spirits have reached their limit, especially his mother, who will really collapse completely if there is any panic.

She made a bold decision: she returned to Rongcheng, handed over the child who had been dragging her down to someone she knew in the past, and then went to meet Luo Yi's people herself.

This was his last memory of her.

After returning to China, Luo Yi relaxed his supervision a little bit. He took advantage of a certain business trip to bribe the staff of the Rongcheng funeral home. He asked someone to check the cremation records for two or three years before and after that, and there was no such thing as Yang Yixuan. name.

is she still aliveHe dared not have such extravagant hopes.is she deadDid Luo Yi kill her?So why did Luo Yi let him live?

The internal phone rang, and it was Fei Chuan calling, telling him not to be late.

After hanging up the phone, Yi Huai flipped through the documents in front of him and took a look, before falling back on the chair behind him wearily.

The people from Shengjiang will come here in the afternoon, so he must make preparations before the meeting.

Also, does this mean he can see that person?
