Chapter 23

The police officers decided to take Xi Wenbai back to the Philadelphia Police Station first. The two police officers on the left and the right put their hands on his arm when he opened the door, exerting some strength intentionally or unintentionally, as if they were afraid that he would break free suddenly.The physical evidence team pulled up the isolation belt, where someone was distributing small cups of coffee, and Xi Wenbai watched everything happen in a daze.

He was still unable to speak, even a single word could break him down. The police officer allowed him to write down the trajectory of the night's activities, and then took the paper to compare it with the surveillance at the convenience store and the main road, and finally announced that "he is clean." of."

But how could Xi Wenbo hurt Liao Liming, he didn't even have time to love him.

Xi Wenbo asked Anze to turn on his laptop, wiped his face, and entered a name on Facebook almost masochistically.

Move the cursor and click Search.

A brand-new interface popped up, and a white woman about 35 years old was smiling at him on a beach lounge chair. Like Liao Liming's Facebook, her update time was always stuck four years ago.

A canceled account left hundreds of messages in the obituary, and Xi Wenbo was sure that he was her husband.

Her son was the only survivor that year.If Liao Liming was willing, he would have survived well, but he did not choose to stand by.

This is very Liao Liming, but not the extremely smart Liao Liming, but the utterly stupid Liao Liming, the Liao Liming who will risk his life in rainy nights to fight for a chance of life for others.Xi Wenbo hated his choice, but this hatred is too fragile, and it will collapse automatically when he sees anything related to him. Xi Wenbo believes that there will be no one in the world who is more pure and kind than his little doctor Sexual people.

He marveled at his good luck, but at the same time he was so selfish that he would rather Liao Liming was a cold person by nature.The belated grief broke out after the criminal was arrested. Xi Wenbai began to lock himself in the room all day long, not answering a single call or email. His vice president and team leader were very busy in the group, He drank until he threw up acid on his isolated island.The bed sheet was as messy as it was after their first lingering relationship, Xi Wenbai curled up on it, fearing the light and the siren, but he was willing to stay in that late night, let regret and pain bite his bones.

In the end, it was Lin Xuan who forcibly broke open the door of his house. The smell of alcohol made her dazed. Such a big man was sitting under the curtain, picking up cigarette butts like a homeless man. No matter what she said to him, Xi Wenbai refused to answer. .

On the first day, Lin Xuan said that the criminal had confessed, Xi Wenbai raised his eyelids and lowered them again, Lin Xuan helped him clean up the room and brought in some fruits; on the second day, Lin Xuan said that the police station was sorting out all the evidence, Asking Xi Wenbo to go again, Xi Wenbai threw the phone to her directly; on the fourth day, Lin Xuan said that Mr. Xi and Mrs. Xi had come, and Xi Wenbo only asked her to take out the rotten fruit.

Lin Xuan left with bananas, and shook her head at the elder who was waiting at the door, "He's in a very bad condition."

"At least...can I go in and see Xiaobai?" Mrs. Xi asked softly.

"President Xi may have to go through this period of time. I don't know how he will react when he sees you." Lin Xuan looked at them hesitantly.

"Xuan, just tell me what you have."

"Mr. Xi asked me to bring a sentence... Ah, I don't know, but—"

"He said..." Lin Xuan lowered her head, "His original words were, 'So, are you satisfied?'"

Mrs. Xi sighed heavily, she was a little unsteady, Mr. Xi supported her, and stood there without saying a word.

Half a month later, when Lin Xuan said that the court was about to hold a trial, Xi Wenbai finally made a move, and staggered to the bathroom to wash his face.

After many years, the verdict was held in Xi Wenbo's hands, it was as brand new as if it had just been opened, with blood and dirt on it.Without thinking too much, he crumpled the document into a ball and smashed it against the wall.Anze ran to pick it up, sat far away from him, and smoothed the paper little by little.

"Xi Wenbo, why bother?"

"Why bother?" Xi Wenbai stared at the cardboard box blankly and asked back.

"I'm doing my best to help you." Anze twisted the bent staple and looked at him accusingly, "The verdict is just a verdict, just a few pieces of paper written by a human being. It's not enough to sue him for his crimes. It's hard to be truly fair, not to mention the criminals... got the punishment they deserved after that."

"I know, I know...but how could Liao Liming, how could he treat me like this..." Xi Wenbo was very sad, "If it was you, Anze, would you make the same choice as him? Protect that child."

Anze unfolded a crumpled piece of paper, "Maybe I won't."

"Such an answer is too ambiguous."

"I won't." Anze stared at him, "I have someone I want to protect."

"what……"

"Almost no one can be as selfless as Liao Liming. I admit that I don't have his character, but Xi Wenbo, in terms of feelings, I don't think I lose him."

"If only he could have thought like you at that time..." Xi Wenbai smiled self-deprecatingly, "But then it wouldn't be Liao Liming."

"Yes..." Anze also admitted that he never thought of competing with Liao Liming, because he knew that he would never be able to compete with him.

Anze rearranged the papers, while Xi Wenbai watched quietly.

It's ridiculous that a murderer can escape punishment with a mental illness ruling document for two years and six months.

Look, the price of murder is so low, Xi Wenbo can also afford it.

"Go to sleep, you can wait until tomorrow to read these things, you are tired enough today." An Ze held the verdict and took the cardboard box away from Xi Wenbo without hesitation.When he came back, Xi Wenbai had already turned off the big lights in the room, leaving only a small spotlight, and he sat under it lonely, falling asleep with his pillow.

An Ze lightly touched Xi Wenbai's cheek with his lips, exchanging his tears away.
