It was 96 hours after the college entrance examination, four days and four nights.Shen Zhizhou tried many ways, but still couldn't contact Yang Qingze.He stood at the gate of the community and dialed the number of the phone that was turned off again and again.The moment he put down his phone, an unfamiliar number called.

Shen Zhizhou answered the phone without thinking, and there was an unfamiliar male voice on the other end of the phone.

Shen Zhizhou felt a little familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he heard it.

"Hello! Is it Shen Zhizhou?" The person on the other side of the phone said without waiting for a reply, "Is that right? I'm Yao Qing."

"What?" Shen Zhizhou came back to his senses, his voice trembling uncontrollably.He hurriedly asked him: "Yao Qing? Can you contact Yang Qingze?"

"That's why I called you." Yao Qing lowered his voice, and said, "I heard from my parents today that he was sent to the Internet rehabilitation center in City H, and I can't get out now. Home. What's going on with you?"

"What online ring center?" Shen Zhizhou suddenly realized, a deep sense of powerlessness crawled from the soles of his feet to his heart.

"Leave it alone," Yao Qing said, "I heard that the Internet Rehabilitation Center is not a formal education at all, it's just crazy torture."

"Where's the address?" The sweat on Shen Zhizhou's forehead kept dripping down, as long as he thought of the possibility of Yang Qingze being abused, he couldn't help trembling.

"I don't know," Yao Qing said, "I just overheard something. Grandpa Yang and his family seem to have passed away."

"I can't leave the house now, don't you have a good relationship with Yang Qingze? Do you have his mother's phone number, please tell her to come and save him..." Before Yao Qing finished speaking, he hung up .

Shen Zhizhou opened the phone to search for friends, but there was still no news.He thought for a while, and ran back home quickly.

Zou Yi was eating melon seeds in the living room when he felt a gust of wind blowing past.The door of Shen Zhizhou's room was pushed open suddenly, she walked over looking for the sound, and saw her son looking through things with tears all over his face.

Shen Zhizhou rummaged through the closet for a long time, and threw the quilt and the things on the bed aside.Finally, I found an incomplete courier number in a corner, with a series of numbers vaguely on it.Upon closer inspection, one of the characters in the center of the number has been rubbed so hard that the original appearance cannot be seen clearly.

Shen Zhizhou rubbed the string of numbers in his hands, and after trying all the numbers from 1 to 10, a gentle female voice finally came from there.

Four days ago, before Yang Qingze even had time to explain the matter clearly, he was fainted by a glass of warm water that Lili handed over.

The cup said that for his own good, each other needed calm water.Grandpa Yang drank it and is fine.Yang Qingze drank and fainted.

Grandma Yang rushed to open Lili, cursing and shouting: "What are you doing? If there is something wrong with him, don't worry about it.".

"No, Mom." Lili said in a low voice: "There was a child in our village who also had this disease, and the family couldn't do anything about him. As a result, he was sent to City H to practice Buddhism for two months. How well-behaved, he even gave his parents a bath. He got married not long ago, and the girl he married was obedient and well-behaved, and now he has a baby in his stomach."

"What do you mean?" Grandma Yang hesitated and asked her, "Do you really have a child?"

"Isn't that right? The doctor said it was a boy." Lili said, "But don't tell others that his family is checked by an irregular hospital, and the gender is not allowed to be checked by a regular hospital."

"I don't have time to talk about it." Grandma Yang muttered, "Then quickly contact your friend, and we'll go there now?"

Lili said yes, turned around and went to make a phone call.

That night, Yang Qingze was sent to City H, and locked up in a temple full of incense deep in the mountains.

Grandpa Yang blocked Shen Zhizhou's phone number, and temporarily lived in City H with Grandma Yang.

Yang Mingzhe and Lili went back to Hangzhou after finishing the formalities, saying they would come here once a week.

This temple is located deep in the mountains of City H. It is unknown, but the incense is extremely strong.There are not many people coming and going, but they are all rich or expensive.In the temple, a group of fake monks with long hair perform their own duties, and even two people guard the door of the toilet.There are two classes in the temple every day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and the most basic "Hundred Surnames" and "Disciple Rules" are read.

On the first day of his arrival, Yang Qingze was taken to the so-called "clean room" to have his head shaved, and then changed into a coarse cassock.After everything was sorted out, the host (that is, the principal) led him to meet Grandpa Yang and Grandma Yang.

Grandma Yang was still crying, and said while crying: "Let's go home when it's cured, and the hair will grow back.".

Yang Qingze did not speak, but glanced at Grandpa Yang mistyly.As if he had exhausted all the nostalgia for these years, there was neither sadness nor joy in his eyes, as if it should be like this.

He never thought that the glass of water that Grandpa Yang asked the woman to pour would make him like this. Compared with the current predicament, he found it mostly funny and unbelievable.

Grandpa Yang's heart trembled for a moment. There was no despair and helplessness in the eyes that looked at him, but there was chilling and distrust, and there was also a hint of sarcasm.He finally couldn't stand the staring at each other like this, turned around and dragged Grandma Yang down the mountain.

Yang Qingze originally thought that the means of transportation were confiscated, and he spent the day reading and writing every day, and he was not released until two months later.He never expected that the nightmare had just begun. As soon as Grandpa Yang and Grandma Yang left, he was taken into a darkroom.

"You can't laugh, can you?" The gloomy voice of the people in the house came out, and the tone was like a smile but not a smile, with a terrifying effect.He said, "Then I will teach you?"

Yang Qingze only felt that he was tied up, and then his feet began to fly upwards.Within minutes, he was tied to a post with nowhere to rest his feet.The teacher in the darkroom smiled, and a screen appeared opposite Yang Qingze.

"Follow me," he said, "Whenever you learn to laugh, I will let you down."

On the screen is an advertisement for a promotional film, and teenage children drag their parents and run to their grandparents.The impact of the picture was too great, Yang Qingze lost his mind for a moment while watching it.

He didn't know what happened to him in the end, and he couldn't remember whether he laughed or not.

When he woke up again, he was lying in a room with eight people.Everyone in the room is doing their own things in an orderly manner. There is a big bed near the door, which is said to be for the teacher in charge.

He raised his hand, feeling pain all over his body.In a trance, he finally remembered that he seemed to be touched by something before the memory faded.That kind of pain pierced my heart, and it was terribly painful.

"Have you learned it?" The teacher in charge came in, grabbed a tall boy who was folding towels and said, "Give him a smile!".

The tall boy turned his head to face him, and within a second, he pulled out an incomparably bright smile.There is no falseness in that smile, sincerity cannot be truer.

Yang Qingze couldn't help but shuddered, and only then began to look at the environment he was in.

The people around were like walking dead one by one. I don't know if they were severely brainwashed or suffered other injuries.Yang Qingze couldn't help but think of the scene before he was knocked out. He said the first sentence when he came here: "When can I see my family?"

"Wait until you learn how to laugh." The teacher in charge smiled and said, "This is the first step. You can decide whether you want to learn or not."

It was a rare time for Yang Qingze to feel afraid, and after thinking about it for a few days, he finally came up with a solution.He began to imitate the smiles of the students here, and was finally allowed to meet Grandpa Yang and Grandma Yang three days later.

In fact, according to the requirements here, he did not qualify.But Grandma Yang was crying every day, so Grandpa Yang said that he could see each other.Somehow, the person in charge finally agreed to change the meeting once a week to once every three days.

Yang Qingze let the people here tidy up for him, and even painted something on his face.He didn't resist, and even reminded the victim that the wound on his wrist needed to be covered up.The teacher in charge was a little skeptical about his transformation, but he was happy to cooperate with him to complete the work.

When Yang Qingze was brought to the living room, Grandma Yang rushed forward.Yang Qingze shook but did not dodge, and clenched his teeth tightly in pain.After a while, he used the smile he had learned for many days to reassure Grandma Yang.

There is surveillance in the living room, and the guards have already told him about it.Yang Qingze smiled the whole time, but Grandpa Yang inexplicably felt that kind of alienation.Even if Yang Qingze was sitting next to him, all he said was concern and regret.

Speaking of remorse, Grandpa Yang only regretted what he said was disobedient, but he didn't say what he did.Grandpa Yang sighed, but before he could say anything, Yang Qingze spoke first.

"By the way, you guys have time to charge my phone and turn it on." Yang Qingze said as if remembering something: "The teacher said that he would organize a grade check and follow-up volunteers, so I can only help you fill it out for me. "

"Okay, I'll charge you when I get back." Grandma Yang praised the teachers here, crying and laughing, and then dragged Grandpa Yang away happily.

Behind them, Yang Qingze took a few deep breaths and suddenly fell to the ground.All the pain in his body came out at this moment, and he repeated over and over again: "Shen Zhizhou, Shen Zhizhou."

Grandma Yang was thinking about Yang Qingze's studies, so she charged and turned on Yang Qingze's cell phone as soon as she got home.Looking at the software that popped up on the screen, she clicked without thinking.

At the same time, Shen Zhizhou's cell phone lighted up in Hangzhou.Beside Shen Zhizhou, stood a woman wearing a leather jacket, black trousers and boots.The cigarette in her hand was cut off suddenly, and she asked Shen Zhizhou in a choked voice: "Is there any news?"

Shen Zhizhou hummed, and the gentle man with glasses next to him immediately got into the driver's seat.

The black Mercedes galloped into the distance in the afternoon, and Shen Zhizhou's trembling hands were held by the woman beside him.After a long while, he heard the people around him say to her, "It's okay, it will be fine."
