Chapter 226 Malice

Chapter 226 Malice

Shang Nan's slap was very hard, but not loud. He scratched his ear with his fingertips, and half of his palm hit his hard jaw. His forearm was slightly numb from the shock.

The boy who had been slapped paused. He tilted his head, and his not-so-neatly trimmed bangs rose up and fell listlessly on his forehead. He pursed his lips twice and turned around.He stared at Shang Nan like a poisonous snake.

Shannan swallowed, but did not regret his actions just now.

The crowd of people watching seemed to have been hit by Shang Nan's slap. They all rushed up, arguing, comforting, and picking up things on the ground.

Shonan was pulled by the arm by two familiar aunts and stood up. The two middle-aged women pulled Shonan and complained worriedly, "Why are you rushing? Aren't you afraid of suffering a loss? Look at these troublemakers, which one is easy to mess with?"goods?"

Another one echoed, "If something happened to you, your parents' eyes that were originally closed would probably have to be opened."

The room was packed to the brim, and Shannan was forced to back away. He raised his chin with difficulty to look for the surprised figure, only to see a thin figure squeeze out from the door.

The rest of the matter was left to the people from the street office to handle. When they heard Shannan say that the little boy had disappeared, they immediately shouted that it was not a big deal. Everyone had eyes and knew that these people were looking for trouble, so they would not blame them.he.

They asked Shannan to go look for him quickly. It was winter and the town was not a bustling metropolis. Don't let him be abducted by human traffickers.

After hearing this, Shannan thought to himself that it would not be a big deal if it was kidnapped and trafficked. It was so surprised that no human being could harm it.

Shan Nan thought he would go home, so he went home first. When he got out of the elevator, he saw a pile of clothes piled at the door before he even took out his keys.

He quickly walked over and looked through them all. He was surprised by the clothes he wore today: a turtleneck sweater, a fleece jacket, jeans, and even his underwear was thrown together.

"..."

Sure enough, he was angry.

[14: If we don’t look for it, who knows if it will be so angry that it will kill two humans for fun.]

Shang Nan picked up the clothes and put them on the cabinet without even entering the door. Then he turned around and pressed the elevator button.

He ran to the bookstore. The bookstore had closed long ago. The rolling shutter door had not been opened or damaged. The window glass next to it reflected the scattered street lights and pedestrians passing by. The bookshelves inside were vague and unclear..

Surprise is not here.

Shan Nan rested for a while and ran into the park of the community. This was the place where he first met Surprise.Shan Nan even walked around several times under the tree where they first met.

But there was no sign of surprise.

14 I couldn’t trace the trace of the surprise, I just said it was moving very fast, signals appeared intermittently, and I felt very bad.

[14: Can you not be angry after being beaten by the brother you just recognized?]

Shang Nan stood next to the fountain pool. The sound of water flowing behind him was very loud. His ears were filled with the sound of water and the east wind blowing from directly in front. Although his down jacket blocked most of the cold air, Shang Nan was stillI couldn't help but shrink my neck.

He was not used to wearing glasses, but he was very accustomed to wearing them. He took the glasses out of his pocket and put them on again smoothly and naturally.

Shang Nan squinted at the entire park lower down. The small town is located in the south, so even in such a cold and freezing winter, the park is still green, with the tree crowns clinging tightly, the wind blowing from the top, and the thickThe thick dark green rippled.

There was no sign of any Tibetans, and no trace of wild cats.

Shang Nan sighed. He couldn't find anyone and he couldn't go back at ease. He looked at the fountain pool behind him and found a dry tile to sit down. When he sat down, his buttocks shrank from the cold tiles.

"What's the difference between this and a rebellious boy?" Shang Nan put his fingers on his knees and felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart. At this time, he realized how ridiculously huge the difference between humans and monsters was.

He was blinded by Surprise's appearance. He saw that the other party was dressed in tatters and slovenly, and ate like a pig or dog. He also learned that the other party had been wandering outside all year round, been abused by others, and wandered between life and death several times, so he really thought that Surprise was a cat.It’s being raised.

The black cat is just the appearance of surprise. It is not a cat, it is malicious.

Being slapped by someone he trusts makes him grow up quickly.

Wei was wearing clothes that had just been picked up from the garbage pool, a very thin off-white sweater, with a large piece of black soot on the sleeves, and the threads came off the back, and the threads fell on the back, shaking.

I also picked up pants, a pair of short jeans that were less than knee length.

His shadow was stretched thin and long under the lamp, and a row of swaying threads got tangled together after being blown by the wind, like the tentacles of an octopus with its teeth and claws.

As he walked around, the position of the streetlights kept changing, and his shadow was reflected on the wall, a thin line, close to the telephone pole, and not as thick as the telephone pole.

He stood there in surprise because someone stopped him on the side of the road.

Men and women dressed warmly yet fashionably, almost everyone lit a cigarette, as if they were standing in a fog.

"Hey, brother, do you have any money? Lend me a few bucks."

Surprise looked at these people with a blank expression. There was a line of blood on his lower jaw, which was scratched by his fingernails. My brother's nails were very cleanly trimmed, unlike it.

The boy lowered his head and saw that his nails, which had become clean during this period, became dirty again because he went to dig through the garbage pool. His nails were filled with black mud.

"Brother, do you hear me?"

Wei looked at them again. These people did not show any malice. They were just joking at a passerby, but it wanted to tear these humans into pieces.

The boy's eyelids drooped for a while, and he turned around and walked towards these people.

It was thinking about what shape it would be better to tear into and how many pieces it would be better to tear into. Big guys can obviously tear into more pieces, while smaller girls can only save on tearing.

Standing in front of these boys and girls, it stretched out its hand.

But before they touched their bodies, a cigarette was stuffed into his hand. The boy who was still holding the cigarette case took a lighter from his pocket and handed it to him, "You had a quarrel with your family, I haven't seen many of them."If you run away from home and dress like a human being, no matter how big the problem is, you can smoke a cigarette and everything will be over."

Seeing this handsome guy standing still, Qin Xu couldn't believe it, "You don't know how to smoke? You obviously look like you can..."

"Here, Pony, light it for him."

Surprised that he didn't like others touching him, he took a step back while holding the cigarette, "I'll do it myself."

He took the lighter from Qin Xu's hand and pressed it several times before igniting the fire. He lowered his head and put the cigarette holder into his mouth. Feeling a little unstable, he put another piece in, and the orange flame burned the tobacco.When the smell came up, a puff of white smoke came out of his mouth, and several smoke rings of different sizes slowly rose.

"Holy crap! You said you can't! You can blow smoke rings!" Qin Xu couldn't maintain his character as a drag man anymore. He pointed at the smoke rings that were about to disappear and said impatiently, "Teach me, teach me.How about I give you ten thousand yuan?"

Surprised to hear ten thousand yuan, his eyes moved and he paused for a few seconds, "One hundred thousand yuan."

"You're a fucking robber!" Qin Xu pushed him.

He staggered a few steps, bit his cigarette and left.

When Qin Xu saw this, he quickly asked someone to drag him back. Qin Xu gritted his teeth and said, "One hundred thousand, one hundred thousand!"

During the teaching process, I realized that I was an adult, but they were not. The oldest was only sixteen years old, and the youngest was only fourteen. They talked so much that I frowned several times, but when I thought of one hundred thousand yuan, I realized that I was an adult., he still held back.

"By the way, why did you run away from home? You still smell bad..." a girl asked curiously.

She was so excited that she saw the fingerprints on the handsome boy's face. She covered her mouth and said in surprise: "Did you get slapped by your parents? That's too much!"

"But did you do something to make them angry?"

"Almost killed someone."

"Ah, that should be beaten," a boy pressed the lighter. He didn't smoke, letting their "eldest brother" Qin Xu smoke fill the air next to him. "Aren't you really good at fighting? You can actually beat someone to death?"

Surprise shook his head slowly. He didn't fight. His violence was directly connected to killing.

"Then are you going home?" The girl held her chin, "We will go singing later. If you don't go home, you can come with us."

"Sing?"

Shang Nan went to the security room and called up the surveillance camera. He was surprised to see that he had left the community two hours ago and had changed his clothes.

Seeing him put on the clothes picked up from the garbage pool again, Shannan felt sad.

"The furthest we can take pictures is this intersection. Xiaonan, what do you think we should do? Why don't we call the police?" The security guard is the one who was surprised and almost drowned by surprise before. He has been working in this community for a while.In the new year, after knowing that the child was an orphan and Shannan adopted him, he immediately felt pitiful for the child.

When he heard that he almost beat someone to death at the funeral, was slapped by Shannan, and then ran away in anger, he said: "He must feel that he is clearly doing good things, but he still has to be taught a lesson by you. I guess it'sHeartbroken.”

"When you get it back, talk to him properly. You have no choice but to take your time with such a wild kid." The security guard took a paper cup and said, "I'll pour you a glass of water. You look so bad..."

Hearing the security guard say that his complexion was poor, Shannan raised his phone and took a picture. Even though the screen was completely dark, he could still see that the man on the screen was as pale as paper. There was no blood on his face, and his eyes were dull.It was as if it had been rubbed thousands of times with sandpaper, losing its original color and making the pupils blurry.

Shang Nan raised his hand and touched his forehead, which was a little hot.

He had been running around in the winter night for so long that he almost forgot that his current body could not bear what he was doing.

He took a big gulp of the hot water handed to him by the security guard, and the security guard said at the same time: How about taking a rest first?

But Shan Nan still took a taxi with heavy steps and walked around the entire city, walking through all the alleys. Nearly five hours passed in the blink of an eye, and he had no choice but to go home.

Stepping out of the elevator and just taking out the house keys, Shan Nan felt that he had spent all his energy.

He leaned on the doorknob to push it into the keyhole, and said with emotion: "To be honest, I am now a staunch DINK."

[14: How to say?]

"I have experienced the feeling of being a father and a mother today." Shannan opened the door forcefully. The living room was so quiet that one could hear the sound of whistles coming from the road far away, and the shadowy lights were the few beams above the city.The lights come on occasionally.

Alone again.This was the first sentence that popped into Shannan's mind after he walked in.

And just some time ago, there was a cat at home.

Shang Nan stood at the entrance for a while, then turned around and walked out, taking in the clothes on the cabinet.

"I have an intuition that he will come back on his own." Shannan didn't even have the strength to change his shoes. He fell directly on the sofa. He felt that his whole body was cold. Turning on the heater and covering him with a blanket didn't work.

[14: Maybe you will die of illness before he comes back.]

It's good to die of illness. If you die of illness, you won't have to be the guardian of a rebellious boy. This is too tiring. This job is really not something that humans can do.

Shang Nan was asleep on the sofa. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when Yang Xi called. He took out his mobile phone from his coat and asked Yang Xi to watch the store for the next two days. He would wait at home until he recovered from his illness.In the store, before Yang Xi could say anything, Shang Nan received a new call. Shang Nan directly switched to the call page of the new call.

She was the deputy director of the sub-district office. Her voice was kind, but the news she brought was not good news. "Those people asked for compensation for medical expenses. There was no surveillance in the room. Everyone saw that it was your child who beat someone.It's impossible for people to beat themselves up like that, right? And it was just a quarrel, no one did anything, it was your child who suddenly rushed up and beat someone..."

Shan Nan raised his hand to cover his forehead, but the scalding temperature on his forehead made him take his hand away again, "Tell me, how much does it cost?"

The deputy director whispered a number.

The phone was so quiet that you could hear the breathing on both ends. After a few short and long seconds, Shannan suddenly sat up from the sofa, "Two million?! Why don't you go and grab it? I have no money, let's litigate.Grass!"

"Xiaonan, Xiaonan..."

He was confused and didn't know how to hang up the phone. Taking advantage of being so angry, he took a hot bath and ate a bowl of steaming white water. When he took the last bite, he felt a great sense of grievance and anger.Out of nowhere, a few crystal tears fell heavily from his eyes.

"This task is too difficult." Shang Nan leaned on the table, the butterfly bones behind his shoulders making his back look thin and lonely.

14 was silent, only giving Shangnan some noise. It couldn't find any trace of Zhen. There were traces of activity last night, but today it couldn't even detect the trace of activity.

[14: Forget it if you die.]

"..." After hearing what 14 said, Shan Nan straightened up from the table silently, "14, why are you still feeling emotional?"

"If it dies, then I will die too." Shan Nan said.

Besides, he didn't want the other party to die. In his mind, the figure who walked out of the community in surprise last night was always in his mind. He was thinking that if he could have dealt with it more appropriately when the incident happened, the matter might not be what it is now.General.

Shang Nanqiang washed the dishes and posted the cat-finding revelation on the Internet. He didn't have any photos of the black cat, but there were photos of the black cat all over the Internet. He photoshopped some places according to the appearance in his memory, and it looked like itExactly the same as surprised.

I sent another text message to Yang Xi, and also sent a message to the shop owner group in the nearby streets. If they saw anything surprising, they could inform him quickly.

Soon, everyone around here knew that Shan Nan had raised a little boy with no relatives, and he ran away within a few days of raising him.

[Brother Li Malatang: What, not getting married?It is better to raise someone else's child than to have one yourself.]

[I came to the cafe on the weekend: It would be fine if I adopted a good one. I heard that he was a complete troublemaker. He hit the security guard as soon as he arrived. When we had dinner at Granny Zhang’s house, he wolfed down his food without any manners at all. He didn’t have any luck.Rushing out to beat someone for no reason, then running away after beating them, leaving the mess for Xiaonan to clean up. What is this if not a troublemaker?]

[I drink cold drinks: If we saw him, we would definitely tell him, but this kid got into trouble, how dare he come back.]

[I’ll get a 20% discount from my own people when applying the film: Xiaonan, stop looking for it. It’s none of your business. He’s not registered in your household. What do you care about his life and death?Just let the police want him.]

[Sister Restaurant: Stop talking, Xiaonan is also kind-hearted.]

Shang Nan took the medicine and lay on the bed, but the medicine had not taken effect yet. He had even slept all night and woke up, and his whole body was still in a state of weakness that was about to melt.

His eyes were blurry, with layers of double images appearing, and the chandelier seemed to have fallen down and covered himself.

Everything around him became so distant. He was wrapped in magma and was about to be burned into a wisp of white smoke.

He pushed away the quilt, grabbed his cell phone from the bedside table, squinted his eyes and opened the screen: there was no news about finding Sui.

After confirming that there was no news, Shannan threw the phone on the ground and lay down again.

Surprisingly, in this state, it is not suitable to wander outside. He may pierce the sky at any time, collapse it, and smash it to pieces.He puts the world at risk of being destroyed at any time, and all humans and creatures living in this world are in danger.

And the origin of all this possible happening was actually because she slapped him, and Shannan knew that he was angry.

He was almost unconscious from the fever, his face was pale, his eyelids were mostly drooped, making his eyes look lifeless, and his lips were parched with heat.

Two cats of different colors appeared alternately in front of him, one black and one white.There are golden patterns on the white cat's hair, which are circles, like a beautiful little leopard.

In the vague scene, the researcher and Qi Ling also had a conflict. It was much more conflict than this. It wasn't even because of grievances or resentment, but because they had fundamentally different concepts.

Qi Ling said that he wanted to go to a safer place, to a place where no one can decide whether they will survive or not. Whether it is a forest or a desert, it can go as long as it is with Shannan. It does not like cities and hates humans.It even sneers at lending a helping hand to humans.

"Then you shouldn't have helped me back then. Why didn't you watch me being bullied to death? I'm a human too. If you hate humans so much, why are you still with me?" The researcher wearing glasses had gray hair on his temples., but Shannan felt that he didn't even look thirty years old, no, more accurately, about twenty-five years old.

The researcher has been burdened with too much, the life of his sister, the life of his professor, the lives of his colleagues and classmates... It is impossible for him to leave all these behind and live a paradise life with his lover.

"You have no abilities. You are just an ordinary human being." The white cat jumped up on the bookcase and swung its tail. "Do you know what this concept is? In today's world, there is only one human per 100,000 people.Your genes have not changed, which means you can already be classified as a protected animal."

"But this is not a good thing. You are powerless, you show no signs of alienation, but you still stubbornly want to protect humans who are a hundred times and a thousand times more powerful than you. You are humiliating yourself..”

The furious researcher grabbed a stool and threw it at the white cat. He breathed heavily and said that he should cut it in two and let each go his own way.

They began a three-month cold war. During this period, the white cat kept sleeping in the corridor. If there was any noise in the corridor, the researcher would react faster than it did.The white cat could be taken away at any time. It was hidden in the house by the researcher.

Then the screen jumps to Surprise. This time, Shang Nan is the person in the game. As soon as the other party appears in front of his eyes, Shang Nan feels uncomfortable. This uncomfortable emotion is not a swarm, but subtle, hidden, and difficult to detect.Like a big hand that slowly tightens its throat, pain and suffocation gently penetrate into every part of the body.

The scene was a replay, and it was played back to the moment when Shang Nan was slapped. He pursed his lips in surprise and said something. Shang Nan tried hard to hear it clearly, or relied on the shape of his mouth to distinguish it, but failed repeatedly.

Shang Nan could only see the boy's expression of shock and hurt. When he saw his hand suddenly lose strength, the man with a bloody face fell to the ground.

When the scene was no longer chaotic, Shang Nan was able to clearly see the various emotions in his eyes, ranging from deep malice directed at him to helplessness and panic.

After squeezing in the large group of people, he stood there for a long time with his eyes lowered and his eyelashes trembling a few times.

When he couldn't control his blinking, he took the opportunity to shed a tear - the tears fell so unexpectedly, and when he shed the tears, his dark and cold expression had not even recovered, so that the tears did not seem to fall from his eyes.What fell down was indeed its tears.

It was crying because this time the pain came from his brother.

Its figure in the crowd began to shrink, and finally slowly turned into a small black dot, and the scene disappeared. In Shannan's eyes, it was still his own room.

In a daze, he heard footsteps, and in the dark room, a bright light appeared in the direction of the door.

The light gradually widened, enough to accommodate an adult's body, and indeed a tall and thin humanoid silhouette appeared.

After wandering around for a few days, his hair was messy again, and eyebrow nails appeared on his already unruly and tough face. The sweater and shorts were the same ones he wore when he ran out of the community that day.

He held a cup of hot water in one hand and a black garbage bag in the other.

Seeing the surprise, Shannan was overjoyed. He sat up on the bed, leaned against the headboard, licked his lips, feeling a little weak, "That day..."

Surprise threw the garbage bag on the bed, and a bunch of banknotes popped out of the garbage bag.

Shang Nan could see the bright red color clearly. He forgot that he was still sick and rushed over to open the garbage bag. It was full of money!Tied up in bundles!

Shang Nan's face turned pale, white and blue again. His heart was beating fast. Could it be that he had stolen it?How many years in jail will this cost?

The man on the bed looked extremely weak now, with trembling lips and a look of despair in his eyes that was both pitiful and beautiful at the same time.
