From the moment he walked into the old building, Lu Xin felt a different kind of depression.
The whole corridor was silent, not a single sound. Only some light from outside the building penetrated into the gap of the man in the cement pavilion, so that he could distinguish the vague interior layout. Empty rooms stand neatly on both sides of the corridor, like silent guards or prisons. The closed door and the corridor covered with cobwebs decorate this old building without a trace of life.
Occasionally, I can see some wild cats or mice, all of them rushing out of the stairway or the hole under the door, or chasing and fighting, or turning their head to look at Lu Xin quietly, And then quickly rushed into an unknown corner.
My sister followed behind Lu Xin, hanging upside down on the corridor and crawling forward.
She sang softly in her mouth, and seemed to be in a good mood:
"Little baby, ooh ah, looking for mother with bare feet,"
"Mom hides under the bed,"
"Let's not tell him!"
"… "
"Little baby, I'm hungry, lying on the bed without speaking,"
"Dad is cooking in the kitchen,"
"He's secretly laughing..."
"… "
Lu Xin couldn't help but stop and said, "Sister, don't sing."
The younger sister hung upside down and straightened her body upside down, her black hair fell down, and giggled, "Don't you like it, brother?"
"right."
Lu Xin nodded and said, "You are too out of tune..."
The younger sister was hanging upside down, shaking, not knowing how to answer.
…
…
Slowly, they had reached the fourth floor. Looking forward, there was a gap of light that squeezed out from the crack of the door.
In this cold and empty old building, only the home has warm lights.
The younger sister stopped singing at this time, and jumped down gently from the corridor, lying on Lu Xin's back.
"Don't be afraid."
Lu Xin knew that her sister didn't want to enter the house at this time, which also showed that her father must be very angry.
He comforted his sister gently, walked silently to the door, and then slowly opened the door.
More lights shined on the face, but it was not as warm as before, with some depression and glare.
Lu Xin squinted his eyes to get used to the light in the room, and then he saw that the room looked tattered, as if it had gone through a war. The furniture, even the floors, had cracks everywhere. Even the ceiling has a striking and huge scratch. In the whole house, there is hardly a single piece of complete furniture, and there are signs of torture everywhere.
In the middle of the room, his father was wearing an apron, and was sitting by the dining table without saying a word, the only chair that seemed to be intact. At this time, he was silent, and when he saw Lu Xin coming in, bloodshot eyes filled his eyes. more obvious.
At this time, my mother was leaning against the wall, talking on the phone and smiling: "Miss Chen, what are you worried about, it's alright, it's just that a few robbers came in the city, it's resolved, my son is here What about the work of the relevant departments…”
"...you just trust me, don't worry, rest well."
"… "
"Snapped!"
Father suddenly raised his hand heavily and slapped it hard on the table, and the half-cracked dining table collapsed suddenly.
The loud noise stimulated the nerves of everyone in the room.
"Waste, is a group of waste, a group of waste that deserves to be used and killed by people..."
The father got up angrily, his eyes were scarlet, blue veins appeared on his forehead, and it seemed that several snakes were swimming under his skin.

As he shouted angrily, the knives hanging in a row in the kitchen vibrated gently.
The light bulbs hanging in the living room also flickered slightly.
The room also began to vibrate.
At the end, Lu Xin felt that the old building seemed to be shaking slightly.
"his..."
The younger sister, who was lying behind Lu Xin, stuck out her little face from behind his head and roared at his father.
"You said, are you trash?"
While shouting, his father walked over to Lu Xin, his fingers almost poking at Lu Xin's face.
He seemed very dissatisfied with Lu Xin, and shouted: "You ran outside all night, but what did you do?"
"You let them all go!"
"You were tricked into running and breaking your leg, but you didn't land any better..."
"… "
Lu Xin looked at his father silently, standing still.
Even if his fingers were about to touch his face, he didn't move, not even blinking his eyes.
"Okay, okay, it's been a day's fire, and it doesn't stop. Isn't the child back already?"
Behind her, Mom hung up the phone, then walked over lightly, smiling: "Now the family is all together."
"Should we have a family meeting too?"
"… "
The four people in the room, the anger on the father's face still ruthlessly turned their heads and looked at the mother.
Mom just looked at him with a smile: "Isn't the fight enough?"
My father's breathing became heavier all of a sudden, his teeth were clenched, and there seemed to be earthworms crawling around on his forehead.
"Mom is right."
At this time, Lu Xin opened his mouth slowly, looked at them quietly and said, "It's really time for a good talk."
The father heard his words and immediately turned to look at him.
"That's right, there's something the family can't sit down and say properly..."
The mother smiled and came to the sofa gracefully, and sat down gently, while Lu Xin took a look at his father, hugged his sister, and sat on the other end of the sofa. They were all silent, waiting for their father to sit down.
The father seemed to be a little irritated by their contemptuous attitude, and even more angry.
"Whoa..."
He pulled the chair next to the dining table with force, sat down heavily, and looked down at the person on the sofa.
The atmosphere in the room became stiff and dull.
There is an invisible force that seems to be accumulating all the time, and I don't know when it will reach the point of eruption.
…
…
"I think I did the right thing."
After Lu Xin sat down, he was silent for a while before saying, "Since I have this salary, I should help others solve some problems, just like the old dean said before, everyone should do their best. Only in this position can this society function normally... In addition, she helped me protect the people in the orphanage, so of course I have to protect the people in the satellite city for her first."
Hearing these words, my father's face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The vicious eyes almost spit out of his eyes: "Now, you still have to say these words? You protect others, who will protect us? What job, what position, that is they are using you, all of them are them excuse!"
"Do you think they'll appreciate you? They can't wait to let you die!"
"You have done so much for them, but their first reaction is to watch out for you and follow you..."
"So, you should let them die too..."
"Otherwise, everyone in this family will be killed by you..."
"… "
His words were like steel needles, pierced into his mind and stirred violently, giving Lu Xin a headache.
