The carriage drove along the avenue and passed a busy street.
Du Dian suddenly opened the curtain and asked the driver to stop by the side of the road.
He straightened his clothes, got out of the carriage, came to the flower shop by the side of the road, and said to the beautiful golden-haired lady proprietress in the flower shop: "Wrap me a bouquet of the most fragrant and beautiful flowers."
Seeing his white complexion and extraordinary temperament, the proprietress agreed with a smile, picked out a handful of fresh roses from the flowerpot in the store, handed them to Du Dian and said: "A silver coin, this is the most fragrant and beautiful flower in our store, but if If you are giving it to your lover, roses are the best, because roses are thorny and can easily prick a lady's fingers."
Du Dian said with a smile: "The thorny flower is the most charming."
Handed out the silver coins, hugged the wrapped roses, and returned to the carriage.
Ba, Ke, and Yue were a little surprised when they saw the flowers Du Dian was holding, and said, "Dean, why are you buying flowers?"
"For our guests." Du Dian smiled.
The carriage continued on its way.
hours later.
On the street near the boundary wall, Du Dian took the three of Barton out of the car and rented a hotel room on the side of the road. After entering the room, Du Dian asked the three of Barton to go nearby to buy some first-aid gauze, disinfectant, and coarse cloth and scissors.
He first shortened his hair to the normal length of short hair in front of the mirror, and the two of them helped to trim the hair on the back of his head so that it didn't look sloppy.
After the hair was repaired, his facial features were also clearly exposed. Compared with his handsome appearance three years ago, he was thinner, his eyes were dark, his cheeks were carved like ice skates, his lines were clear, and the outlines were the same as before. , still a little familiar, but the expression and eyes are calmer, and the thin lips have a hint of coldness.
Afterwards, he sat down on the ground, took off his newly bought jacket, clothes and trousers, and used the thick thread cloth he bought to lay on the ground.
"Dean, you..."
"this… "
When the three of Barton took off their upper body clothes, their eyes widened, and they looked at the body of this same-age partner in disbelief. It didn't look like a human body, but like a dry field, full of scars and cracks. Countless welts and scratches entangled Du Dian's chest, back, arms, abdomen and other places like spider webs.
Except for a shallow scratch on the chin on the cheek, the place covered by the clothes is almost full of scars.
The three of them were shocked. It was hard to imagine what kind of injury this was caused by the cruel criminal law, and what kind of willpower they endured so much pain!
"This, is this all the torture you suffered when you were imprisoned?" Kruen stared blankly, suddenly feeling a little wet in his eyes, thinking of his hesitation before, his heart was filled with guilt and shame.
Du Dian smiled slightly and said: "Not all, I need your help now, help me pull out these two steel nails."
The three of them immediately noticed the nail caps on Du Dian's shoulders, and felt a layer of goosebumps all over their bodies. Button tremblingly said: "How can they torture people like this, don't they have a little mercy?"
Du Dian picked up the pliers they bought, and handed it to Barton: "I'll leave it to you, hurry up when you pull it out."
The faces of the three were ugly, and their emotions were extremely complicated. After holding the pliers, Barton's palms trembled slightly, and he said, "It will be very painful to pull it out like this. You, can you hold it back?"
"Well." Du Dian gave the three of them an encouraging look.
The three of them looked at each other, gathered their courage, gritted their teeth and clamped the nail cap with pliers, always paying attention to Du Dian's expression, for fear that they would cause more harm if they missed. When they saw Du Dian's calm expression, the three of them became more courageous and grabbed the pliers and pulled the steel nails hard.
The heart-wrenching pain came from under the shoulder blades. Du Dian clenched his fingers into fists tightly in pain, but his expression still tried his best to keep calm, but the pain was beyond his expectation. :"quick!"
Barton gritted his teeth and pulled hard.
The steel nail was pulled out with a whoosh, and blood gushed out from the wound, the color of the blood was a bit dull.
Du Dian's mouth twitched in pain, and asked the three to spray the gauze and disinfectant prepared in advance and bandage the wound.
The three were in a hurry, but they were still entangled by Du Dian.
"This, so long!" Joseph felt his heart tremble when he looked at the steel nail covered in blood in his hand. The steel nail was thicker and longer than his fingers, and he couldn't imagine the pain when he was nailed into his body.
Du Dian took a few breaths, his lips turned white, but he still let the three of them continue to pull out the second steel nail.
Ten minutes later, the two steel nails were taken out, and the three of them helped Du Dian bandage the wound on his shoulder.
After doing this, the three of them were a little exhausted, and they sat on the ground next to them and gasped for breath.
Du Dian leaned against the bed, relaxed his body, and let the wound on his shoulder heal as soon as possible.
"Dean, where did you throw this steel nail?" After a break, Kruen, who was more cautious, asked Du Dian.
Du Dian's eyes fell on the two steel nails, and he said softly: "Don't throw it away, leave it to our guests."
After the wound stopped bleeding, Du Dian took the three of them out of the hotel, but did not immediately go to the boundary wall, but came to a house in the middle of the nearby street. Du Dian picked up a stone from a distance and threw it on the door.
Hearing the sound, the door was pushed open, a short and fat woman looked around, saw the stone on the ground again, could not help cursing, and closed the door again.
The three of Barton couldn't see clearly, so they looked puzzled.
Du Dian didn't say anything, and greeted the three of them to walk towards the boundary wall.
Following the crowd check, Du Dian was stopped by a middle-aged guard.
"Please show your ID cards." The middle-aged guard said.
Du Dian took out a gold coin from his arms and handed it over, staring at the other person's face, only to see that the middle-aged guard's face changed slightly when he saw the gold coin, and anger welled up in his eyes soon.
Before he could speak, Du Dian spoke first, with a very low voice, "That short, fat woman is your wife, right?"
Hearing Du Dian's words, the voice of the middle-aged guard who was about to get angry suddenly froze. Du Dian quickly took out another gold coin and said loudly, "Sorry, sorry, I gave it wrong just now, this is it." He stuffed it into his hand.
The middle-aged guard was silent for a moment, and finally tightened his fingers slowly, and said indifferently: "Go."
Du Dian waved to the four behind and entered the passage.
After coming out of the long passage, the three of Barton couldn't help looking at Du Dian, and Kruen said, "Dean, how do you know that woman is his wife? Do you know him?"
"It's the smell." Du Dian said without explaining in detail, he hired a carriage on the side of the road, got in the car, and said to the three people: "Now we are going to our guests, and we have to start business. Keep your spirits up and you must not be sloppy in the slightest!"
