I decided to die.
Just five short words, the speaker's tone was calm, but the listener felt a sense of despair.
"I really died." Jian Jing said, "I fell into a bottomless black hole. At first, I felt so relaxed and quiet. The noise that had been noisy in my ears for a long time disappeared. I breathed a sigh of relief and thought I had found true peace, but..."
She glanced at Wang Shi and said quietly, "I regret it."
Wang Shi opened his mouth and said: "You still don't understand..."
"No, you don't understand." Jian Jing, who committed suicide, was thin and small, but her gestures were filled with a toughness that could not be questioned. "You think you understand death, but in fact, you are just a bystander watching others die as a living person. Your 'understanding' is too shallow."
"What is death? Death means that I am no longer myself." She approached step by step, her face as white as a painted wall, but her lips were as red as cherries, which was the characteristic of death from carbon monoxide poisoning.
"I lost everything I had, Jane's family and friends, Jane's happiness and glory, and even Jane's pain." Her voice rose unconsciously, almost screaming, "I have nothing! I am no longer myself. I feel happy because of the pain. Like everyone else, I don't feel relieved at all."
Wang Shi was shocked all over and couldn't say anything to refute.
A rope has no length. Only two ropes can be used to compare length.
There is no high or low in a single tree. Only two trees can contrast high and low.
The same goes for life.
Without painful, difficult and bitter times, how can we understand what happiness is
"I'm scared, and I regret it." The dead Jian Jing pursed her lips, tears welling up in her eyes, but she forced herself not to close her eyes, and instead stared at him without blinking, "But at least, I also understand that you are wrong, I am right, and you lose."
Wang Shi took a deep breath and instinctively wanted to refute. However, she stood in front of him, the two of them were almost face to face, and the extremely close distance brought a huge sense of oppression.
There are thousands of words to say, but none of them can be expressed.
How can a living person talk about death in front of a dead person
"If you're not convinced," she raised the corners of her lips, her eyes flashing with sly pride, "you can try it too."
Wang Shi was shocked and wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
She raised her hand and pushed him hard.
A huge black hole suddenly appeared on the ground, with a chaotic light and an unfathomable depth, like the gate to hell. Wang Shi suddenly fell into it, and in an instant, the cold air of death spread to his limbs and bones.
Blurred vision, sick to the stomach, drowsy body and mind… the feelings are so real.
In a flash, Wang Shiquan understood.
This is "Jane Jing's" memory and her personal experience at the moment of her death.
He suddenly trembled uncontrollably.
This is because if a person dies during hypnosis, there is a high possibility that he will wake up in reality.
The Grim Reaper swung his scythe and he smelled the true breath of death.
At that moment, he had to admit that compared to the calmness and relief he had imagined, the thought that emerged in his mind was actually fear.
I don't want to die.
He was scared too.
At the moment of life and death, all wisdom collapses, all caution disappears, people are dominated by the instinct for survival, and do everything they can to survive.
"No." He struggled desperately, trying to grab something to stop falling.
Available.
Status, money, power, strength... the glittering golden support in the secular world is but a wisp of gossamer in the black hole of death. With the slightest touch, it will break into flying smoke.
Death is equal.
Death is also empty.
In an instant, the light disappeared, leaving only chaotic darkness.
The falling speed is still accelerating.
The other side of the end is near.
“No!” Wang Shi’s face was completely distorted by extreme fear. He was unable to think and just relied on instinct to scream heartbreakingly, “Mom!”
The name came out of his mouth after nearly thirty years of absence.
In the eternal night of despair, a woman's face appeared. She was still so beautiful, so fragile, and her eyes were always filled with tears when she looked at him.
Wang Shiyue hated her for abandoning him many times, and also missed her embrace many times.
"Mom." He stretched out his hand, "Save me."
Wang Lingfang burst into tears and gently hugged her child.
The falling stopped.
Ji Feng followed Wang Shi's clues and pulled out his communication records since May.
In addition to the regular exchanges, there was a text message that seemed a little strange: [The balance has been received, and the key will be sent to you]
He called the number immediately.
The other party was in the fishing business, but had recently gone bankrupt. The warehouse he had booked at the fishing port had more than half a year left, so he sent a message to sublease it. Wang Shi took the initiative to contact him and rented the warehouse for the remaining time.
Ji Feng's heart was about to jump out of his chest: "Which dock, which warehouse?"
The other party reported the address.
Ji Feng jumped up from his chair: "Found it, let's go!" He rushed to the door, braked suddenly, and told his teammates, "Call the Coast Guard and ask for support."
Lao Gao was startled: "Why, sneaking across?"
"It's hard to say." Ji Feng ran to the door, the cold night wind made him shiver, "Ignore him, save the people first."
The police car sped to the dock and turned off the siren a kilometer away.
Under the cover of night, a team of police slowly approached the target.
Lao Gao said in a low voice: "Don't you want to call the armed police?"
"Let's take a look at the situation first." Ji Feng took a deep breath, suppressed his anxiety, and tried his best to stay calm. "I always have a bad feeling."
Lao Gao's expression changed slightly: "You mean..."
Ji Feng shook his head, his heart was in turmoil. He couldn't speak, and he didn't know what to pray for. He just relied on the instinct acquired through years of training and approached quietly.
The dock was quiet and deserted in early winter, and the air was filled with a certain fishy smell that had yet to be eliminated.
Holding the gun in my hand, the plastic shell is already filled with human warmth.
The wind is howling.
Ji Feng's heart suddenly lifted. He suddenly thought of Kang Mucheng's question: if she hadn't gotten what she wanted when he found her, what should he do
Should he ignore her wishes, put the safety of the hostages first, and break into the house to rescue them, or should he wait patiently, lie dormant by her side, and watch her suffer
Perhaps the former should be chosen. As a friend and a policeman, it is the right thing to do, and no one can find fault with it. But if you put yourself in his shoes, would he want to fail at the last moment
Ji Feng asked himself, he didn't want to.
There are always things in the world that you would risk your life for. He also had to admit that he was not afraid of the pain when the knife cut himself, but it was unbearable when it cut someone else.
Or... maybe it's the leader's order that saving lives must be the priority
Anyway, this is the fact.
A lot of chaotic thoughts were lingering in my mind, and I was not careful for a moment and actually saw it.
The subleased warehouse is right in front of us.
The door was open and the light was on.
"Fuck!" In an instant, all the worries were thrown out of his mind. Ji Feng's heart stopped beating in shock and he pushed the door open.
The dilapidated warehouse was filled with broken glass, there was a destroyed cage next to the wall, snow-white sheets and quilts fell to the ground, and the wire bed was overturned to one side.
There was a strange smell in the air, like some kind of academic atmosphere.
Ji Feng covered his mouth and nose, opened all the doors, and examined the scene in the house.
"Is he not here?" Lao Gao chased in.
Ji Feng calmed down and said, "If we had come a step later, the people might have been on the boat." He was now feeling mixed emotions. He was happy because from what he saw at the scene, Jian Jingfei was fine and still had the strength to fight. But he was worried about the vast ocean and the even more serious situation.
"Lao Gao." He put the gun back into the holster, his face solemn, "We have to speed up. If something happens at sea, there will be nowhere to look for it."
Lao Gao looked around and nodded: "Let's contact the rescue team first and stand by."
Ji Feng guessed correctly, Jian Jing was currently at sea.
The reason why this is the case is that we need to turn back time half an hour.
At that point, the hypnosis ends.
Wang Shi suddenly opened his eyes. The dark red light shone directly on his head, stimulating his eyes to tears.
"Bang", a muffled sound.
He turned his head and saw that Jian Jing had woken up before him. She was holding a gun in her hand and fired it at the glass door.
They had searched her body, so where did the gun come from? Wang Shi was stunned for a moment, then he reacted. He jumped up and leaped onto the table, dodging the bullets while reaching into the safe and taking out the hidden weapon.
Jian Jing is still breaking the cage.
He searched her body in advance and thought she had no weapon. The glass house was made of explosion-proof glass, which was very strong and could not be broken by bare hands.
It's different with a gun.
Large cracks appeared on the glass, forming a network of fine cracks.
She stripped off the sheets and blanket, picked up the steel bed, and smashed it hard against the shattered glass.
Shards of glass flew everywhere. She dropped the heavy steel bed, lifted the hem of her wedding dress, and stepped out of the cage that had held her captive for so long.
The dilapidated warehouse, the dim lights, the broken glass, the thin layer of floating dust, and the woman in the rose wedding dress, created a strange and eerie picture.
Jian Jing slowly walked into the darkness, half of her face was in shadow: "Why, you saw me coming out and you want to run away?"
Wang Shi pressed his aching temple and fired a shot steadily.
The bullet whizzed towards her.
Jian Jing moved swiftly and dodged to the bottom of the table to block the attack.
At this moment, the door opened.
The figure flashed into the night.
Jian Jing knew that if he escaped, with Wang Shi's ability, even if he was wanted nationwide, he would still be able to avoid the police's sight and get away with it.
She didn't hesitate and ran after him.
The cold night wind blew on my face, carrying with it a faint smell of damp, fishy and salty water vapor.
Is this... the sea
Heping City is a coastal city. Due to its topography, it does not have a good natural harbor, so maritime transportation is not well developed, and the boats moored at the several docks are basically fishing boats.
Because of overfishing in shallow waters in recent years, Heping City has vigorously supported deep-sea fishing. The fishing season started in September this year, but in November, the fishing boats had not yet returned, and the entire dock was deserted.
Wang Shi was certainly very smart to choose this place as the place of detention.
He was familiar with the surroundings, and disappeared after a few detours. Jian Jing immediately activated the five senses card and followed his breath.
Wang Shi moved quickly and agilely. In ten minutes, he had jumped onto a fishing boat.
This is a shallow-water fishing boat, very small, not much bigger than a speedboat.
When Jian Jing caught up, the boat had already started and was slowly sailing into the sea.
She had to activate the kitten card and rely on the cat's leaping ability to jump steadily onto the deck.
In the cab on the second floor, Wang Shi looked at me with a complicated expression: "Do you really have to catch up?"
"You are responsible for so many lives, and you still want me to let you go?" As the ship left, Jian Jing felt ominous in her heart. She immediately put her hands behind her back and took out the locator hidden in the storage compartment.
Wang Shi's expression turned cold: "You asked for it."
He held the rudder with one hand and pulled the trigger with the other.
Bullets were raining down like heavy rain.
The deck was narrow, so she had to move to the side and be careful not to roll into the sea.
Taking this opportunity, the fishing boats broke away from the fleet at the dock and rushed into the sea at the fastest speed. The sea surface at night was cold and shiny, like a dormant giant beast.
Wang Shi was like a madman in desperate situation. He didn't care about the condition of the ship at all. He would shoot as soon as he caught sight of her figure.
Sparks flew, and several holes suddenly appeared on the deck.
"Xiao Jing," he said, "I don't want to kill you. There are life jackets on the boat. Jump off."
