When Li Shiqing was just in college, her mother was worried that she would fall in love early, and once spent a whole night admonishing her earnestly.
Li Shiqing had already forgotten most of the things he said that night, except for a few, which he always remembered.
My mother said, "The relationship between people cannot be forced. When the other party is no longer nostalgic, you don't have to force it. You can get together and leave, and save yourself some last decency. The most important quality of a woman is self-esteem. "
She said, "Just because the other party is a man, you can't think that you should let you go and cooperate with you in everything, because the other party is not willing to do or happen to you. If you are used to dependence, you will To lose the ability to stand on your own is to put all the chips in the hands of others, and others can shuffle the cards and start over at any time."
She also said, "A good relationship is when two people are getting better and better in this relationship. If you find that one of them is suffering, or one of them is getting worse and worse, it means this There is a problem in the relationship, you have to reflect. If it is not your problem, then the time has come for the relationship to end. If the problem is not resolved, even if you don’t want it to end, time will make it end.”
Although her mother talked about how to have a relationship with a man with self-respect and self-love, Li Shiqing always felt that these words of her mother were the same in normal interpersonal communication.
After all, love is also a kind of "interpersonal communication".
Therefore, even if they are just ordinary friends of her own, Li Shiqing has always followed this principle to get along with them.
She didn't "advance with retreat", nor did she "put on airs". At this moment, she stretched out her hand to her little brother, not to offer some kind of invitation, but to make some kind of promise.
Her "goodbye" is to hope that he will "see you never again".
"If I let go now, I won't be a 'nice' person in my life."
A pair of warm and dry palms came up and gently held her hand in it.
Li Shiqing's fingers were cold, which made his heart soften.
Her heart may not be as chic as it appears, and she may just be suppressing the fear and reluctance in her heart, but she still wants to use the greatest kindness to let him go free.
"I won't run."
He used to wonder why such an ordinary girl would encounter such a strange thing.
Now he knows.
—Because she is such a good girl, even God couldn't bear to let her go like this, and wanted to give her a chance;
Also because she is such a good girl, the gods don't even have the heart to let her "fight alone" and live alone in such a cruel world.
At least for now, his thoughts are consistent with the master in the dark.
"You don't have to..."
Li Shiqing worried that he couldn't let go of his face because of moral constraints, and wanted to persuade him again.
"I understand what you mean, but my self-esteem does not allow me to do this kind of thing of 'hiding behind others and enjoying the fruits of other people's labor with peace of mind'. You just take care of my self-esteem, okay?"
The impatience and anger that the little brother had before have all calmed down now, and the peace and kindness of Li Shiqing and him when they first met have returned.
How could he be more cowardly than a little girl
The little brother even joked with her. "If I feel like I can't hold on anymore, I'll tell you, give me a 'half day off' and let me get out of the car and go surfing, okay?"
"OK! OK! No problem! It doesn't matter if you give up! Thank you!"
That being said, no one is not afraid when they know that they have to face all this alone. The moment the little brother smiled at her again, Li Shiqing's eyes lit up with hope again.
"Thank you so much, you're such a nice guy!"
She was only able to utter such a lengthy speech just now, but she could only express her surprise and gratitude with such poor language in the face of other people's kindness.
"Okay, why are we both polite to each other? We are both in the same boat... Uh, the people in the same car are already 'life-threatening' friendships, and we need to help each other next."
After reaching some kind of "friendly consensus", the little brother looked at the direction of the cross-river bridge and said with some concern, "I don't know how the situation is over there now. It's not good if you are not in the car. You can get it." There is so little information."
They got off at the station, and they got off at 13:20. There were several bombings at 13:45, so Li Shi also specifically mentioned this time in the intelligence case.
But they all knew that the bomb could be detonated at any time, and they didn't know whether the police had successfully prevented it.
"At least there was no smoke in that direction, and there was no vibration."
Li Shiqing also looked up, "If it hits the tanker truck again, the world will definitely collapse, right?"
"I hope so."
Now that he has decided to "attack and retreat together" with Li Shiqing, the little brother didn't mention the topic of "living as usual after prevaricating the police". Instead, he turned on his phone and searched for news and news on the Internet.
Li Shiqing's cell phone was turned off, so she could only sit aside at this moment, nervously waiting for the news that the little brother found out.
"look at this!"
About 20 minutes later, there was a news about the bus explosion on the local forum.
[terrible! Just now two police cars forced a bus to stop on the Yanjiang Road bridge, and we were still watching to find out what happened, but the bus blew up! All the people in the car were killed, oh, what a tragedy!]
Below this post, there is also a picture taken by a mobile phone.
In the picture, two police cars followed a bus one after the other, and a police loudspeaker yelled "the police are checking, pull over" loudly, and the bus was indeed slowing down behind the police car in front. Slowly driving to the emergency lane on the bridge, many passing vehicles slowed down, obviously wanting to watch...
But at the moment when several policemen got on the bus, the bus suddenly exploded!
With the sound of "Fuck, there's a bomb!", the screen of the mobile phone shook violently, and the photographer and the driver sitting in the co-pilot ran out of the car in panic at the same time, and the shooting shot was terminated.
Less than five minutes after this post was posted on the citizen forum, it became popular. Hundreds of people left comments below. Most of them questioned the authenticity of this scene, and some said it was a live filming of a movie. There are different opinions about the picture, which arouses everyone's curiosity more and more.
Li Shiqing and Xiao Heyun naturally also saw this post, and after watching all the clips captured by the mobile phone, their faces were as pale as if they had seen a ghost.
"Know there is a bomb, no, shouldn't the road be closed first..."
Li Shiqing said tremblingly.
"Time is too short, too late."
The little brother also clenched his fists, gritted his molars and said, "Although you reported to the police in detail, you turned off the phone after you finished speaking. This kind of thing sounds so absurd. The police must first go to understand the situation and make sure. It’s not that someone reported a false alarm…”
Even sending someone from the nearest police agency would only take enough time to find the exact bus. To evacuate the masses and control the roads, several departments need to cooperate at the same time, not to mention that "explosion protection" is something that can only be done by more professional departments.
Soon, this post on the forum was deleted. When people in the forum were discussing whether the post was deleted because of "spreading false content", someone directly pointed to Weibo and told everyone this The thing is true.
With a heavy heart, the little brother opened Weibo again.
Although the posts on the local forums were deleted, many media and self-media have forwarded the news. In addition, many people who were on the bridge at the time uploaded their own driving recorders or mobile phones. down video.
In these pictures, no one can be calm.
The riots and fear were like a plague, quickly infecting all the vehicles and pedestrians present at the time. In the video, the shrill screams of people and the roaring horns of vehicles accompanied by the background of billowing thick smoke, it was like the end of the world. scene.
In fact, the scene of the accident is indeed enough to make people frightened:
When the explosion occurred, many vehicles slammed on the brakes due to the violent noise, which caused a series of car accidents on the bridge, affecting dozens of passing vehicles, and many people were injured;
Some drivers thought they had encountered a "terrorist attack", and immediately chose to make a U-turn in the middle of the road regardless, but caused a bigger traffic accident halfway;
There are pedestrian passages on both sides of the cross-river bridge on Yanjiang Road. The huge impact caused by the explosion of the bus splashed the explosives in the car onto the pedestrian passage, and mercilessly smashed on the fleeing passers-by. Now those pedestrians have died. He was sent to a doctor, leaving only blood-stained glass shards and the deformed and scorched scrap metal.
"Oh My God… "
Li Shiqing looked at the turmoil in those pictures, and took a deep breath.
Whether it is her or the younger brother, they have never faced the scene of a bus explosion before.
The first time she got out of the car, she went to the hospital. Although she saw many burn patients in the hospital, she didn't know what the scene was like.
Xiao Heyun was even better, he was burned to the brink of death.
When they got out of the car after that, they quickly moved away from the explosion site, and that piece of road was immediately blocked, without causing any greater riots.
In addition, every time they had an accident, they were in the car, "coexisting and dying" with that bus, and when they opened and closed their eyes, it was another cycle, and they didn't know what happened afterwards.
The little brother pursed his lips tightly and skillfully searched for available information on the Internet. However, in modern society, information expands at an explosive speed. This speed of expansion also creates a situation where it is difficult to Select the correct and authentic content from the massive amount of information.
It was less than an hour before the incident happened, and before the results of the incident were announced, most of the media did not dare to speculate casually, and more public opinion expressed anger at such a tragedy and expressed regret for the innocent casualties involved in this disaster And tributes, beyond that, not much usable information can be found.
There are one or two rumors that the police stopped the car because they received a call to the police, claiming that there was a bomb in the car and requesting an investigation.
However, before the police could verify the real situation, the car exploded, killing several police officers who got into the car to investigate.
But this kind of news is useless to "participants" like them.
"You're right, this is the result of not planning."
Li Shiqing trembled, her face and eyes were full of remorse.
"I'm in a hurry, I should find some more clues..."
"In that case, you still remember to call the police and have done what you should have done."
The little brother comforted her without looking up, and kept checking the interface of the local police.
"There is too little time, and it is expected that many things cannot be stopped."
The bombing this time was not like the previous few times, when it collided with a fuel tanker, and nothing was left at the scene. The explosion this time should have left a lot of clues and evidence, such as what the explosives were and where they were in the car. Based on these clues, investigation and monitoring should be able to find out who brought the explosives into the car.
But as the little brother said, "there is too little time", and I don't know whether it is because the scene is busy with disaster relief, or because the case cannot be announced in a hurry before there is no clear progress. Anyway, there is no clue about the real culprit on the Internet. come out.
During this period, Li Shiqing and her younger brother changed places to stay in the park several times, and finally hid near a rockery, where few park visitors approached;
At about four or five in the afternoon, the younger brother also received a "summons" call from the police, but he was directly ignored by the younger brother with the excuse of "I can't go there because I have something to do", and then ignored it, and all the calls were hung up. broken.
The two made up their minds to avoid this day and never go to the police station.
Seeing that it was getting darker and darker, and there were almost no people in the park, the two of them hadn't found any useful clues on the Internet, but the rumors about Li Shiqing's phone call became more and more evil.
Some people say that the call to the police is due to the inconsistency among the gangsters, some people find out their conscience, some say that the caller directs and acts out his acting personality, and some say that the caller is provoking the police in this way, just like in some suspenseful film and television dramas. The big villain who left various clues...
"I'm famous now."
Li Shiqing mocked herself in her heart: "I never thought that I would become a 'big villain' one day."
The little brother's phone is almost out of battery, he doesn't keep swiping like before, but takes out his phone every ten or twenty minutes to check to see if there is any new news.
"What’s wrong with you… "
Li Shiqing saw the little brother looking at the screen of the phone, and was stunned for a long time, and raised his head wonderingly.
It was a notification issued by the local police. It did not explain the specific circumstances of the explosion, but only announced the identities of the policemen who died in the line of duty in this explosion.
On the lit screen, it was the amiable-looking middle-aged police officer who suddenly appeared...
