Young Oak Rongzhi...whatever

Chapter 4

In the dark alley, the girl ran forward in terror, shouting "Don't come, don't come!"

Behind him was a man with a knife in his hand, but his expression was in a trance, and he was also chanting, "Go to death, you devils, go to death!"

There was no way in front of the alley, the girl turned around and saw the black figure approaching continuously, and cried against the wall in despair, "Don't come here! I beg you, please let me go! Don't come here! Who are you?" ?! Don't...don't..."

But the man didn't seem to hear anything, he just kept approaching, muttering "Go to hell! Go to hell!"

"Ah!" A shrill scream pierced the night sky.

When Rong Li entered the classroom the next day, he saw a group of people gathered together and didn't know what they were talking about. He walked up to Lu Lin and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Lin shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Wang Rui came over and said with a mysterious face, "Do you know what happened?"

Rong Li and Lu Lin looked at each other, Rong Li asked: "What happened?"

Wang Rui said in a low voice, "A body was found in an alley on the other side of Xincheng this morning. It was a girl. It is said that she died in a terrible way."

Lu Lin frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Wang Rui shook his head and said, "I don't know, but martial law has been enforced in Xincheng. Isn't your home in Rongli near Xincheng? Didn't you see it?"

Rong Li shook his head and said, "I came here by bus this morning, I didn't go that way."

Wang Rui sighed, "I don't know who this girl has feud with."

Rong Li said, "How do you know it's a vendetta?"

Wang Rui said with lingering fear: "I heard from them that the girl was stabbed countless times, and her face was scratched a few times. Tell me, can you be so cruel without revenge?"

They stopped chatting when the class bell rang, but the students in the class were discussing this matter all day long, and Rong Li also chatted with Lu Lin and Wang Rui to guess what was going on.

When Rong Li came home at night, he told his mother about it, but his mother was very nervous and said, "Li Li, where did you hear that?"

Rong Li said: "What the schoolmates said, our school has spread the word." Rong Li picked up an apple and played with it, "By the way, where is my dad? He hasn't come back yet?"

Rong Li's mother sat there in a trance and didn't answer. Rong Li gave his mother a strange look, disturbed his mother a few times with his hands, and his mother suddenly stood up and said: "Li Li, you go to bed first, and mother goes out." one trip."

Rong Li frowned and said, "Are you looking for my dad again? Mom, don't go out at this late hour, and besides, he never takes you seriously, what do you care about him?"

Rong Li's mother shook her head and said wearily: "Li Li, he is your father anyway, don't keep getting angry with him, he still cares about you."

Rong Li sneered, "Did you care about it in your dream? I thank him."

Rong Li's mother didn't say anything more, she packed her things and went out, Rong Li turned around a few times in agitation and ran out.Rong Li kicked stones and wandered aimlessly around his home, to see if he could wait until his mother came back, and walked to the alley where the accident happened this morning. It’s just that construction has been going on here, and there are few people. His family moved here not long ago. The depths of the alley were surrounded, and a few policemen were still watching the scene. Saw something glinting in the corner, he walked over to pick it up in a strange way, it was a cufflink - it was given to his father by his mother, with an R on it.

Rong Li looked at the cuff buttons with trembling hands, feeling a little dazed.

"Over there, what are you doing? Who let you in at the scene of the crime?!" A policeman walked towards this side.

"Sorry, I'm leaving right away." Rong Li subconsciously avoided the hand holding the cuff button, turned and ran away.

Another policeman frowned and said, "Now these children are curious about these things all day long, and I really don't know what they are thinking."

Rong Li ran back all the way in a state of confusion, he just wanted to ask his dad why this thing appeared there, maybe his dad just passed by there and accidentally dropped it, yes, it must be like this!

Rong Li panted and ran to the door of the house, and when he took out the key, he was suddenly a little scared. He didn't know what would happen when he opened the door, but he had a faint feeling that everything would be different when he returned home.

Rong Li finally made up his mind and opened the door. Only his mother was sitting on the sofa, her eyes were in a daze, and she didn't know what she was thinking. Rong Li walked over slowly, helped his mother's shoulder, and yelled in a low voice. One sound.

His mother trembled as if she woke up suddenly, and after seeing Rong Li, she squeezed out a smile and said, "Li Li, you are back."

Rong Li didn't answer, but hesitated for a while and said, "Mom, where is my dad? Didn't you go to find him?"

His mother stood up immediately, as if she hadn't heard, and said, "Lili, are you hungry, mom is going to cook for you."

Rong Li grabbed his mother's arm, asked again, and said, "Mom, where is my father?"

His mother said with evasive eyes, "Your dad...your dad will be back later, he...he went to find his friends."

Rong Li asked again, "Mom, where's my dad?!"

Rong Li's mother said with a panicked expression, "What's wrong with you, Li Li?".

Rong Li took a deep breath, "I'm going to find my dad."

His mother grabbed Rong Li and said, "Li Li, don't go anywhere, stay at home with mom, okay?"

Rong Li turned around and said, "Mom, what happened to you recently? I just went to talk to my dad about something, why are you stopping me?"

His mother still didn't let go, with a pleading look in her eyes, she said, "Li, mom is fine, so why don't you go to your dad? I... I'll make you your favorite spicy chicken, okay?" With prayers, Rong Li couldn't bear to look at his mother again, so he shook off his hands and walked out without saying a word.

"Lili, Lili, where are you going?" Rong Li's mother hurriedly followed.

Rong Li whispered: "If you don't tell me anything, then don't ask me what I want to do!" After speaking, he slammed the door and left.His mother didn't chase her out any more, she fell to the ground as if she was exhausted, covered her face and began to cry.

After Rong Li ran out, he walked in a daze, his mind was in a mess, he remembered his parents' quarrel for a while, then he remembered his parents watching TV with a smile on his face, and when he was young, his parents took him to the park , he was running in front, and they were laughing behind... Many things swirled in his mind like a revolving lantern.

Suddenly he felt a pair of arms pulling him hard, and he subconsciously wanted to shake him off, but he didn't. Rong Li raised his head and saw Geng Rongjiang, and subconsciously said, "Uncle policeman, what a coincidence." Thinking of something, he suddenly became nervous, his eyes were flustered and helpless, "Are you here to find me? What's wrong?"

Holding an umbrella, Geng Rongjiang said dumbfoundedly, "Why are you nervous? You are still walking here under such heavy rain."

Rong Li knew that it was just a chance encounter, nothing else, and then he felt his body was wet, shivered, shook his head and didn't speak.

Geng Rongjiang didn't ask any more questions, and directly stuffed Rong Li into the car, and Rong Li didn't resist, letting him pull him.After getting into the car, Geng Rongjiang turned on the heater and said to Rong Li, "Is it cold? I'll take you home."

Rong Li leaned against the car window and looked out the window, whispering, "I don't want to go home."

Geng Rongjiang asked, "Did you quarrel with your family?"

Rong Li shook his head and just said, "I don't want to go home."

Geng Rongjiang turned his head to look at Rong Li, the boy's usual fluffy curly hair was wetly pasted on his forehead, maybe it was because of the rain, his complexion was pale, and he looked a little depressed.

Geng Rongjiang said again, "Then send you to find your whisper friend?"

Rong Li still shook his head, unable to speak.

Geng Rongjiang didn't ask any more questions.

"Here, get out of the car."

Rong Li looked up and saw the unfamiliar environment, and looked at Geng Rongjiang suspiciously, "Where is this?"

Geng Rongjiang smiled with narrowed eyes and said, "My family."

Rong Li still didn't respond, just oh.

Geng Rongjiang knew that something was wrong with Rong Li, but he didn't ask any further questions.

Geng Rongjiang's house is not big, but it looks very comfortable.Geng Rongjiang took out a pair of slippers and put them in front of Rong Li, saying, "These are new ones, take a shower in the rain, can I find you two of my clothes?"

Rong Li nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle Policeman."

Seeing Rong Li dejectedly calling him the police uncle, Geng Rongjiang really couldn't laugh or cry.

Geng Rongjiang took Rong Li to the bathroom, told him to take off his wet clothes and put them directly at the door, and threw the washing machine for him by himself, no matter what Geng Rong Jiang said, Rong Li nodded and agreed.

Geng Rongjiang was not used to seeing Rong Li, who was smiling every time he met, suddenly so depressed, but he just patted Rong Li on the top of the head and said, "Go, I'll find you something to eat."

When Rong Li took a shower, he started to think wildly again, where did his father go?Does this matter have anything to do with his father?Should he tell Geng Rong about the cuff buttons?

Rong Li stood under the shaggy head, propped his hands on the wall, lowered his head, and finally sighed deeply, what are these things...

Geng Rongjiang lifted Jiangtang out and put it down, and saw Rong Li coming out wiping his hair. He gave Rong Li a white T and a pair of black cropped trousers. They were a bit too big for Rong Li, but Rong Li usually does sports. , does not look thin and thin, but also has the unique flexibility of young people, and his skin is also fair. Rong Li has been ridiculed by Wang Rui for his skin is too white.

Geng Rongjiang smiled and said, "It's quite white, it looks thin and muscular, not bad."

Normally, Rong Li would definitely have to make fun of Geng Rongjiang, but this time he was really not in the mood, he just sat down and obediently held the bowl and drank the soup. In fact, he didn't want to drink it at all, but he didn't know what to say to Geng Rongjiang , so bite the bullet and swallow bit by bit.

Geng Rongjiang looked at Rong Li's tortured expression, and couldn't help but say, "Is it so bad?"

Rong Li pursed his lips and shook his head.

Geng Rongjiang didn't say anything else, and waited patiently for Rong Li to finish his drink before saying, "It's late, shall I take you home? Otherwise, your parents should be worried."

Rong Li hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Policeman, can I...can I stay here tonight?"

"May I ask why?" Geng Rongjiang seemed a little surprised.

Rong Li lowered his head and said in a low voice: "I had a fight with my mother, and I don't want to go back."

Geng Rongjiang thought for a moment and nodded, "It is possible, but you have to tell your family."

Rong Li nodded and called his mother, but made a small fuss, saying that he was at Lu Lin's house, his mother sighed and told him to rest early, don't think too much.

After Geng Rongjiang cleaned up the guest room, Rong Li sat by the bed, bowed his head and thanked Rong Li, Geng Rongjiang patted Rong Li on the shoulder and said: "Go to bed early, I have something to do tomorrow, I can't send you to school, I will give you the key." Put it on the coffee table in the living room, and you can just give it to the security downstairs."

Rong Li nodded in agreement.

After Geng Rongjiang walked out, Rong Li fell on the bed, stared at the ceiling in a daze, and finally covered his eyes with his hand, hiding the confusion and despair in his heart.

When Rong Li got up the next day, Geng Rongjiang had already left. Rong Li took a taxi to the school, and when he got to the school gate, he heard the class bell ringing. Rong Li simply stood at the school gate in a daze.

From afar, Lu Lin saw Rong Li standing upright at the school gate, walked over quickly, patted Rong Li on the shoulder and said, "Hey, I'm back."

Rong Li seemed to have been awakened, stared at Lu Lin with wide eyes, and suddenly dragged Lu Lin away, "I have something to tell you."

"Hey, there's no class anymore?" Lu Lin felt that Rong Li's hand holding his arm was trembling slightly, and he frowned and said in doubt, "Rong Li, are you okay? What's wrong?"

Rong Li pulled Lu Lin to a deserted corner by the road, took out the cufflinks, and whispered anxiously and tremblingly: "This belongs to my dad, do you know where I found it?"

"Where is it?" Lu Lin looked at Rong Li suspiciously, the panic in Rong Li's eyes made Lu Lin feel an absurd thought, he looked at Rong Li in disbelief, "No way..."

"I also hope it's fake." Rong Li tightly gripped his cuffs, his hands trembling.

Lu Lin was a little confused, and said blankly: "Is it just passing by? After all, your home is not far from there."

Rong Li whispered, "I don't know."

Lu Lin turned around a few times, and finally said, "Where's your dad? Did you ask him?"

Rong Li squatted on the ground leaning against the wall, buried his hands in his arms, and said sullenly, "I don't know, I haven't seen him for many days, and I had another fight with my mother yesterday afternoon, and then I came out."

Lu Lin asked suspiciously, "Then where did you live last night?"

Rong Li was silent for a while and said, "It's at Geng Rongjiang's place."

Lu Lin asked, "Did you tell him?"

Rong Li shook his head and said: "I...I don't know what to do...I'm in a panic...I don't dare to tell him, just in case..." He didn't continue.

Lu Lin thought for a while and finally said: "Go back first, you have to face what you have to face."

Rong Li stared at the ground in a daze, nodded for a long while and hummed.

Lu Lin originally wanted to go back with Rong Li, but Rong Li refused, and Lu Lin didn't insist anymore, but just asked Rong Li to call him if he had something to do, and Rong Li agreed.

Before Rong Li got out of the car, he saw two police cars parked in front of the house, and his heart sank. Rong Li stood at the door and hesitated for a long time, and finally opened the door and walked in.
