my neighbors

Chapter 22

I didn't expect that a person who looked so kind on the outside would treat his husband like this.Xiao Ai's maturity and talent, I really don't know whether it will be beneficial to her or cause endless troubles.

"Father's head is covered with blood, bright red blood..." Xiao Ai's eyes showed violence for the first time, "Do you know what she did next?! Faced with such a father, this woman is merciless He pulled out a knife and stabbed him! Dad would not die! Maybe he could be saved by sending him to the hospital at that time! But I couldn’t make a sound, the blood splashed on my face, and this woman’s face! She killed She didn’t know she was afraid until she was perfect, but she chose to hide the corpse to cover up her crimes! She stuffed the corpse into a box, wrapped it tightly, and put it in the bottom of the closet. Unfortunately, she still didn’t Seeing me hidden in a coat, who told me I was too small."

"She broke Dad's countless bones in order to put Dad in that box! She also cut off Dad's head! I still remember every bone breaking sound! I can't cry, I know that once I If I cry, I will become like my father. What can I do? Watch my father turn into a bloody mass of unknown things? I won’t allow it! At this moment, I immediately thought of that Potted flowers are simply the best place to hide corpses."

"So I waited for her to go to work, and I took out the box. I really couldn't hold Dad except for the pot of flowers. But the pot was too small...too small...my hands were covered Congealed blood, my tears brought them back to life again... I can only put my father's head in a flower pot, and the rest of the bones can only be stuffed back. This woman really feels that it is not safe to hide the body at home. The next night, she was going to move the corpse, but what? She found that the head of the corpse was missing!"

Xiao Ai laughed at this point, but couldn't hide her sadness: "Although she is still a bit smart, she guessed that maybe I took the head. But what about the evidence? Where is the hiding place? The stupid daughter suddenly stole the body. I can’t even imagine it. So I came to your house with that potted flower in my arms... In the end, I ran away from home. I hugged my father and cried bitterly. I swore that I couldn’t let him sleep forever for no reason. So I came back, and I want to let That woman pays back for everything she's done!"

After speaking, Xiao Ai raised the knife and was about to kill her. I saw that something was wrong, but I couldn't stop her!Then something happened that no one expected, the mouth of the head suddenly opened, and a small seedling popped out. In such a difficult environment, it was still tenaciously alive.

——"Xiao Ai, don't be afraid, you have to live well."

- "Like a sunflower."

Xiao Ai still can't forget her father's expression and movements when he spoke.And the sunflower he bought that day, what kind of courage and strength are contained in the small seedlings.

——"Dad, why do you like sunflowers so much?"

——"Because, the sunflower is Xiaoai. You must always face the sun and grow vigorously. An optimistic person's life will never be too bad."

However, the person who taught her these things is no longer around.Her sunflower, her sun.

Xiao Ai slowly squatted down, and Si Mu and I couldn't guess her intentions. Later, I felt something was wrong, and when I went over to look, Xiao Ai had already passed out.

This is the happiest and most helpless New Year's Eve I have ever lived. The happiness is because I still have Si Mu, and the helplessness is because some people will never be able to get together for a lifetime.

After Xiaoai passed out, she lost her memory, and even Si Mu and I didn't know each other anymore. The psychiatrist said that she has mild autism.Later, she was given an IQ test, and she might be a little worse than her peers. A genius fell like this.In the end, her grandmother took her back to her hometown, which is said to be a place where spring flowers bloom.When she left, she waved to me, as if the former Xiao Ai had come back again, and I responded with a smile, wishing her good luck.

Aunt Hu was seriously injured and became demented, unable to take care of herself.The police let her go, but her natal family took her back and had to raise her for the rest of her life.

As for Xiaoai's adoptive father, the bones have been found and cremated. I think he can finally rest in peace.A person who never forgets to teach his daughter until his death, I have a good impression of him.

Everything is on the right track, I think so.But a calm sea doesn't mean it doesn't harbor storms. I'm about to experience one of the most bizarre things among these neighbors, and also one of the most bizarre things in my life.

Moth ([-])

Zheng Shutang woke up on the messy bed, the weather was gloomy, just like his mood.All kinds of wrenches, screws or saw blades were scattered around him, and he was too lazy to clean them up.

still there.he thought so.

The wall in front of him was covered with moths. For some reason, they had occupied the wall since last week and refused to leave.Zheng Shutang tried a lot, insecticide, cockroach medicine and even fire, but the moths died one after another, and the whole wall was covered with moth wings. Zheng Shutang felt that in two months, spring would bloom, and he could See the transparent eggs of the moths hanging on them.He felt self-defeating in this kind of thinking, but over time, his mentality has changed from self-defeating to indifference.

He looked at the unrecognizable wall expressionlessly, got up and went to the living room.

Pick up the phone receiver, press a few keys familiarly, and then there is the sound of "beep-beep-beep--" the phone is connected, but this time there is no miracle, just as stubborn as those moths on the wall After a while, a nice female voice rang on the phone: "Sorry, the call you dialed is temporarily unanswered..."

He put down the phone and fell to the floor, the red circles on the calendar were extremely dazzling.

It has been three days.He suddenly felt powerless.

I woke up in Simu's arms again, and the moment I woke up, I immediately pushed him away and fled.In short, my life with Si Mu is now on the right track, and now I have to do my best as a boyfriend and make some breakfast that I can't even eat. …If it feels like our lives are a little hard, that must be my illusion.

Only me, Si Mu, and Zheng Shutang were left on the fourth floor. Looking back on the experience of the past two months, I still have an unbelievable feeling as if I have passed away. There are too many things.I feel like I'm in a perverted novel, where an unknown man behind the scenes is killing people one after another like a game, and in the end, will he extend the hand of death to me or Zheng Shutang?

For the first time, I feel that the daily life without new ideas has become valuable. Nothing happens, so I have to enjoy it.The love life with Si Mu is also so ordinary, occasionally hugging the waist and kissing, but not doing more things.Falling in love in such a strange and dangerous environment is a bit of a pleasure in bitterness.

I told myself that happiness is good.

New Year's Eve has passed, and the stock in the refrigerator has been emptied.Si Mu and I had to end our life of doing nothing at home and go downstairs to do some shopping.When I opened the door, the door of 406 also opened at the same time, as if I had a tacit understanding.

"Ah, Lin Feng, Si Mu," Zheng Shutang smiled at me, "Are you going out too?" His smile was not as natural as usual, it seemed to be full of heaviness and unhappiness.But he still smiled at us, so exhausted.

I was a little worried about him: "Ah, yes, go out to buy some food... You... nothing happened, right?" Thinking of the abnormal behavior of the neighbors before, the omens appeared very early, so I naturally paid more attention to Zheng Shutang. A worry, or rather, fear.

Zheng Shutang rubbed the corners of his eyes: "Probably because I didn't sleep well last night, I'm fine." At this moment, I noticed that he closed the wooden door of his house in a panic, as if there was some evil spirit in the house, trying to prevent it from coming out.His nails were dirty, filled with sludge-like things, which were quite different from the usual cleanness.The hand holding the key also seemed a little unnatural, deliberately avoiding bending.

"Hey, are you really alright..." I looked inwardly in shock.

Zheng Shutang's reaction was unremarkable: "I fell on the road yesterday, and my wrist was swollen last night. It should be... like this, I seem to have forgotten." "What, forgot?" I was shocked, Zheng Shutang's memory is too bad, right?I don't even know what I have done. Is this still human memory?

"Recently I've been a little dazed, and I can't remember what I've done." Zheng Shutang said with a wry smile, "I feel strange, and I've seen a doctor, but unfortunately nothing gets better, so I can only let it go."

Si Mu, who hadn't interrupted all this time, suddenly said, "How long are you going to stand here and talk?" I realized that this was really impolite, so I smiled apologetically at Si Mu.Zheng Shutang covered his mouth and smiled, "You two... live together?" I was taken aback, and my face quickly turned red. How should I explain this kind of ambiguous thing to him?I was at a loss for words for a while, and I hesitated for a long time without uttering a word.

Zheng Shutang's eyes lingered on us, and he smiled knowingly: "It's nothing, I understand, how long have we been dating? I thought none of you would say anything."

I can't laugh or cry, it was really because of a beautiful accident...

Downstairs from the apartment, there is a noisy vegetable market.

"You don't seem surprised at all after you found out." I teased Zheng Shutang, and Si Mu silently followed behind me, exuding an inexplicable discomfort all over my body, which made my back feel cold, and I couldn't help but quicken my pace.

Zheng Shutang
