This is not such a complicated and bizarre story.
On the edge of Southern Chu, in a village close to the mountains and forests, there once lived an ordinary family.
The hostess and hostess runs a small shop. Thanks to the help of the big guys in the village, the business of the small shop is still booming.
Presumably because of the abundance in life, the couple paid a fine after having a son, and gave birth to a second child, a daughter, when their son was six years old.
It’s different from when I gave birth to my son, because at that time the atmosphere was more open, and the name didn’t need to be red and professional, so my daughter’s name was Ruo Ying, and her brother’s name felt like two styles of painting...
——"Although it's off topic, but my father once wanted to name me Jianguo, but because there were already seven or eight named Jianguo in the village at that time, so my father changed it to Zhengyi."
The boy who is the older brother is very jealous of his younger sister. When he was young, his parents were busy every day because they had not started their business halfway, and they often left him alone at home.
But after the younger sister was born, because the family's business was on the right track, the parents often took time to take care of the younger sister.
This made the boy feel that his sister not only enjoyed the treatment he had never enjoyed before, but also took away the care of his parents, so he didn't like his sister very much.
But for some reason, the boy's younger sister often likes to cling to her older brother.
When I was a child, my younger sister often ran around behind my brother, and often clamored to sleep with my brother at night.
Even if you get something to eat or play, you will share it with your brother as soon as possible.
That boy is also an idiot. He has accepted his sister subtly, but he still talks about hating her.
Ten years have passed, and the six-year-old boy has turned into a sixteen-year-old boy. Because he studied one year earlier than his peers, he was about to face one of the turning points in his life at that time—the college entrance examination.
At that time, the boy’s dream was to become a scholar in mathematics, physics and chemistry. In addition, as the eldest son of the family, his parents had high expectations for him, so his goal was also set very high, which is the kind of top-notch student who is second to none in China. school.
Naturally, high goals brought about extraordinary study pressure. The originally outgoing and cheerful sunny boy gradually began to get depressed and shut himself at home because of the pressure, and even his temper began to become a little surly.
But even so, his ten-year-old sister is still by his side often.
Now that I think about it, at the time when he was the loneliest and was under the pressure of his parents' expectations, it was such a joy to have someone by his side.
Because I can't help my brother with anything, so at least my sister who is by his side is so gentle and considerate.
It's a pity that the teenager at that time didn't realize this. He was selfish and only cared about his own pain and his own feelings.
Finally, one day, he was overwhelmed by the pressure when he couldn't memorize the English words in his mind no matter what. He was anxious and irritated, and he vented his anger on the little girl who was quietly reading the picture book, thinking that it was all wrong. It was the girl who distracted him and made him unable to memorize the words.
"It's so annoying! I hate you!" Even such excessive words were said out of the heat of the head.
Until now, the former teenager still remembers how the girl hugged the book and left the room sobbing amidst his scolding.
It was a sad expression that looked more like being betrayed than being sad because of being scolded.
After the girl left, the uneasiness in his conscience made it even more difficult for the boy to concentrate on his revision.
The summer cicadas on the tree outside the window kept repeating their boring and piercing calls.
Before air conditioning was popularized, even the air blown by electric fans was hot.
The steamy environment made the boy's mood even more chaotic.
In the end, he put down the review materials in his hand and went out to find his sister.
It's just that I haven't found it after searching for a long time.
It was not until the evening that he had the thought of "maybe she has gone home" and "I apologize to her in the evening", and returned to his home.
However, he and his parents stayed at home until very late, and his sister did not come back.
The girl is missing.
After that, his parents spent a lot of energy looking for her, calling the police and mobilizing the villagers to help find her. The teenager also put the college entrance examination aside and searched again and again in the wilderness. looking at his sister.
Then, on the third day of her disappearance, the teenager found her sister's body in a deserted field not far from home, which had been searched for several times.
…
"The corpse, the corpse, the corpse..."
When Xiao Zhengyi said this, his voice choked.
Fang Xiaoqing looked strangely, but found that the expression on the other party's face was distorted in pain. Even by his side, she could feel the great sadness and unwillingness.
Fang Xiaoqing gritted her teeth, then stretched out her hand and hugged Xiao Zhengyi into her arms.
"It's okay... everything is in the past, it doesn't matter if you don't talk about it."
She patted the other person's back lightly, feeling the other person's body gradually relax from stiffness, and comforted him softly.
"No, I've been holding back for ten years, so let me have a good time."
Xiao Zhengyi didn't break free from the other party's embrace, but continued to speak in this posture that would be considered a show of affection if placed outside.
"When I found her body that was no longer human, she was holding a four-leaf clover tightly in her hand. The cruel scene even made the public security officers who heard the news retch... But they didn't I can find the murderer. From then on, I changed my ambition and chose to apply for the police academy! My sister’s revenge must be avenged by myself!”
"It seems you succeeded?"
"No, I failed. I didn't know until I graduated from the police academy and reconnected with my friends who went to work there. The murderer of my sister was a widowed old man who committed serial murders, and the case was not solved. Because of the investigation, the old man was discovered when he was too old and died in his sleep, and his body began to rot. When the police cleared the scene, they found evidence from the crimes he had committed to confirm this! "
Having said that, Fang Xiaoqing felt Xiao Zhengyi's body trembling slightly.
"I'm not reconciled! Why can that kind of person leave so peacefully! Why didn't I catch that guy and let my sister rest in peace! If I hadn't chased Ruoying away, maybe this kind of thing would never have happened ! That child was treated so painfully, he must be resenting me to the end!"
"From that moment on, I decided that no matter when, I will never be ashamed of my name, even if I risk my life, I don't want to let my tragedy repeat itself on others!"
Xiao Zhengyi's voice sounded a little muffled.
— Are you crying
This was the first time Fang Xiaoqing saw Xiao Zhengyi so weak.
Although there is no way to compare with the one in Ying Apartment, Xiao Zhengyi will not back down even in the face of supernatural creatures far beyond human existence.
After Xu Feng and the others were transferred, they single-handedly provoked the leader of Jiang Jinchao's management office with their mortal bodies, running around the whole city all day long.
It's not because there is an invincible strong standing behind him, even if it is the one without Sakura's apartment, Xiao Zhengyi will not turn a blind eye to those evil spirits and ghosts.
Even because of this, in the incident some time ago, he was seriously injured almost life-threatening.
But even so, Xiao Zhengyi still didn't think about quitting the super management office and becoming an ordinary person.
In fact, Fang Xiaoqing has always had the feeling that Xiao Zhengyi's bravery has gone beyond the scope of normal people, even to the point of giving up on himself, even if he dies, it doesn't matter.
Now that I think about it, this bravery probably didn't come from having that invincible being, but from the unwillingness and sadness of my own inability to save my sister.
