"Brother Bing … Brother Bing."
"Yes?" Xiao Bing came back to his senses.
Li Hong looked at Xiao Bing worriedly. Xiao Bing was suddenly in a daze when he was kneading the dough. Li Hong said, "Why don't you go home and have a rest today … Are you too tired these days?"
"Oh, I'm fine …" Xiao Bing took a look at the time and smiled. "Damn it, why don't I feel uneasy today? Is it because of my encounter with Zhu Liya this morning?" "Alas, that poor woman."
Thinking that it was getting late, Xiao Bing thought he might as well go home earlier. So he said, "Then you go ahead. I'll go home first."
"Okay, go home first." Li Hong said worriedly, "Take a good rest at home if you're not feeling well."
"I know." Xiao Bing wiped his hands and patted Li Hong's head. Then he walked out of the noodle house with a smile.
Xiao Bing left a little early today, about two hours earlier than usual. He thought for a while and decided not to call Zhu Liya. Anyway, Zhu Liya's home was not too far away from here, so he walked directly to her apartment.
"Zhu Liya works hard to support her family every day. Her husband is still gambling and drinking. How can I persuade her as a friend?" Actually, divorce was the best choice. But Zhu Liya seemed to have a knot in her heart and could not bear to leave that man. It seemed that Xiao Bing needed to persuade her more.
While Xiao Bing was thinking, he suddenly saw several men in black rushing into an alley nearby. Out of curiosity, Xiao Bing stopped and looked into the alley. Zhang Gui was coming from the opposite side of the alley, holding a handful of roses in his hand and humming a tune.
Those men in black rushed to Zhang Gui and slashed at him. Zhang Gui opened his mouth wide and his eyes widened in disbelief. His body slowly slid down. Xiao Bing roared and dashed at Zhang Gui. Those men dared not stay any longer when they heard the noise. They all scattered in an uproar.
Xiao Bing had no time to chase them. The most important thing now was whether Zhang Gui was dead or not. Zhang Gui was lying in a pool of blood with wounds all over his body. The roses were scattered in front of him. The blood made the roses even redder, making them look sad and beautiful.
Xiao Bing squatted down, and then there was a touch of sadness in his eyes. Zhang Gui's heart had been stabbed twice, and the aorta in his neck seemed to have been cut off. The bleeding could not stop. Xiao Bing shouted at the people outside the alley, "Ambulance, ambulance!"
A hand patted on Xiao Bing's knee. It was Zhang Gui's hand. There was a bankbook in his hand. Xiao Bing stared at him blankly. Zhang Gui opened his mouth, but as soon as he opened his mouth, blood came out. Xiao Bing put his ear closer and heard Zhang Gui say with great difficulty, "Give … give it to Yingzi … Let her … live … well …"
He did not care whether he was dead or alive. For him, the most important thing was the life of that woman. It was such a deep obsession. Xiao Bing grabbed the bankbook in his hand. Xiao Bing had always hated this man, but now … Seeing him die in front of him, Xiao Bing felt an indescribable depression in his heart.
Xiao Bing slowly reached out his hand and closed his eyes. The entrance of the alley was already full of people. Xiao Bing picked up the roses on the ground and walked out step by step. The onlookers made way for him and looked at Xiao Bing in horror. They did not see the scene with their own eyes. They did not know who killed this man, but no one dared to stop Xiao Bing.
"Yingzi … Yingzi …"
Xiao Bing thought of the prostitute who was with Zhang Gui. He immediately ran as fast as he could. Finally, he stopped at the shabby building. An old woman suddenly appeared next to him. She pulled Xiao Bing's clothes and said with a smile, "Brother, are you looking for a girl? We have a beauty in our house. You can play with her … "
Xiao Bing grabbed the old woman's collar and lifted her up. He roared, "Yingzi, where is Yingzi? If you don't tell me, I will burn this place down! "
The old woman widened her eyes in horror and said in a trembling voice, "The third floor … The third floor is …"
Xiao Bing put her down and directly rushed into the corridor, going straight to the third floor.
When he reached the third floor, Xiao Bing shouted, "Yingzi, Yingzi!"
Several doors were opened. One of the women was Yingzi, whom Xiao Bing had met before. She was wearing a white nightdress. After seeing Xiao Bing, she asked with a blank face, "You are?"
Xiao Bing walked over and opened his mouth. He sighed and said, "Let's go in and talk."
There was uneasiness in Yingzi's eyes. It was not because of the blood on Xiao Bing's body, but a kind of uneasiness from the bottom of her heart. In order to solve the uneasiness in her heart, she nodded and invited Xiao Bing in. Then she closed the door.
It was a small house with one bedroom and one living room. The room was not big and was very messy. After seeing Xiao Bing standing still in the room, Yingzi smiled embarrassedly and said, "My house is a little messy …"
"It's okay." Xiao Bing said with difficulty, "Is it convenient for me to smoke?"
"Okay … Okay. It's okay. I smoke too."
"Okay." Xiao Bing took out a lighter and pressed it a few times to light the cigarette. Then he took two deep puffs.
Yingzi sat down on the bed and looked at Xiao Bing. When she felt that Xiao Bing had calmed down, she asked carefully, "I don't think you are here for fun … What do you want from me?"
Xiao Bing looked at Yingzi and forced himself to calm down. He asked, "Do … do you know Zhang Gui?"
"Oh …" Yingzi said, "I know him. What … what happened to him? What's the matter? "
"Yes."
Xiao Bing handed the rose in his hand to Yingzi. Suddenly, Yingzi felt sticky. When she looked down, she saw that the rose was covered with blood. She screamed and the rose fell on the ground, one petal after another.
Yingzi looked at the rose on the ground absentmindedly. She raised her head with difficulty and looked at Xiao Bing with red eyes. She asked, "Something happened to him, right?"
"Yes." Xiao Bing's mouth twitched a few times. He said with great difficulty, "Dead … dead."
The look in Yingzi's eyes suddenly became very scary. It was not a kind of horror of wanting to kill, but a kind of horror of extreme despair. It was a kind of despair that had no will to live. Xiao Bing felt scared when he saw that. He hurriedly said, "I know you are friends with him. He …"
"He is my man, my man …"
"What?"
"I said, he is my man." Yingzi asked, "How did he die?"
Xiao Bing simply told Sakura what he saw, and then sighed, "In addition to the roses, he also gave me this bankbook before he died. He asked me to give it to you. He wanted you to live a good life."
Sakura took the passbook, opened it, and saw that it was 200,000 yuan!
200,000 yuan was just enough to redeem her from here. It was enough for her to live a happy life like a normal person.
Yingzi cried, sobbing. 'I'm free, but you're not here anymore. What's the use of this freedom?'
She could not stop crying. Xiao Bing felt a little sad. Yezi was right. This woman had true feelings for Zhang Gui. But Zhang Gui still thought of Yingzi before he died. It could be seen that Zhang Gui loved her the most.
Xiao Bing didn't know how to comfort her. Maybe he could only let her cry.
Finally, Yingzi stopped crying. She wiped her tears and looked at Xiao Bing calmly. This calmness made Xiao Bing feel even more terrible and uncomfortable than when she was crying just now.
Xiao Bing sighed and said, "This bankbook was obviously prepared for you. I don't know how you two got together and how deep your love was. But his biggest wish before he died was that you could live a good life."
"I know what you are going to say." Yingzi pointed to a chair next to her and asked, "Thank you for telling me all this. Are you interested in listening to our story?"
Xiao Bing sat down on the chair and looked at Yingzi seriously.
"I was sold here by my father. My father is a gambling addict. After he lost his money, he sold me here for 200,000 yuan. At that time, I was just 18 years old … Here, I've seen all kinds of men. There are big-bellied societal parasites, gangsters who mix in every corner of the street, and white-collar workers who look immaculate on the surface. But whether these people look gorgeous or ugly, I can only think of one word: disgusting!"
"Until I met him …"
"That day, when I was walking on the street, I met a few gangsters. All of them were whoremongers who had come here before. They wanted to take advantage of me on the street."
"I know I am not clean. I am a prostitute, but I am also a woman. I was just exchanging interests with them. Selling my body was just my job. But it was not my working hours on the street … So I resisted with all my might. At that time, he appeared. "
"He wasn't tall, skinny and small, but he was on top of me, using his body to protect me. That day, he was beaten black and blue, but in the end, he told me with a cheeky smile that the hooligans had left, and that everything was fine."
"I will never forget that day …" Yingzi's eyes were as tender as water. When a woman talked about a man, the reason why she could show this kind of expression could only mean one thing. She had already fallen in love with this man …
"From that day on, the two of us were together. He never turned his back on me, and I never turned my back on him. We didn't care about the way others looked at us, because in our hearts, only the other party was the most perfect. "
"He had always wanted to make money to redeem me. Until a few days ago, he suddenly told me excitedly that he had received a big job and that he would soon be able to get me out, and then …"
Yingzi's nose was sore again. So was Xiao Bing's.
"Excuse me, I want to go to the bathroom to wash my face." Yingzi stood up and walked to the bathroom in a daze. Then she locked the door of the bathroom. Soon, the sound of running water and Yingzi's crying came from inside.
Xiao Bing put his arm on the table and gently rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers. His head hurt so much.
The sound of running water was the same as before, and the crying gradually stopped. Xiao Bing waited for a long time, but still did not hear anything. Suddenly, Xiao Bing smelled blood. Then he immediately stood up and rushed over. He kicked the door of the bathroom open. Then he staggered back and sat on the ground.
Yingzi was lying on the ground with a sharp blade in her hand. Her throat had been cut open, and the ground was covered with blood. Her face was pale, and her eyes had lost their luster. But before she died, her face was filled with a smile.
"Ah!" "Why? Why?
Why did I see all this?
Why did everything happen under my nose, but I couldn't do anything?
Why couldn't I prevent these tragedies from happening? "
Tears flowed out of Xiao Bing's eyes. In his heart, Zhang Gui was no longer that dirty short man. Zhang Gui had become extremely tall, and Yingzi was even more so.
At this time, the door was broken in. A group of tall and strong men rushed in with wooden sticks in their hands. The red-haired man, who was the leader, shouted at Xiao Bing, "Did you say you were going to burn this place?"
"Ahhhhhh!" Xiao Bing's eyes were wide open and bloodshot. With a roar, he madly rushed over. "Go to hell!!!"
