In the renovated hall, the eerie atmosphere was already very obvious.
And this kind of atmosphere was too familiar to Qin Nuo.
Facing the aunt's question, Qin Nuo smiled faintly: "I was just wondering, Auntie, why don't you cook more? It seems that the uncles and the others are not satisfied with the drink yet."
Auntie said calmly: "I cook as much as I want and give them as much as I want to eat. They can only grab theirs. They dare not even touch what I eat."
Not only his face turned pale, but his tone of voice also changed significantly.
If you think about it carefully, the uncles were just grabbing what was in the pot, while the aunt was drinking from the bowl, as if they didn't see anything.
The old man was smoking a pipe as if it was his first time. He was choking and coughing. Black blood kept coming out of his mouth, staining the entire pipe red.
The old man didn't seem to be affected at all, he just muttered, "I've been eating too much greasy food lately, and I have a lot of phlegm."
The other two old men didn't say anything. They sat there with their heads down, shivering, as if because of hunger or cold.
In their mouths, saliva dripped...
"Girl, I just told you about some things that happened to me in the past, do you remember?"
The aunt took out a photo from her patched pocket. The photo was clean, but her fingers, which had been used to wipe it, were covered with calluses and black mud.
"You said your daughter committed suicide due to bullying. Your husband died, and you felt guilty towards your daughter. As a result, you spent the rest of your life in self-blame and pain." Shu Yue simply recounted it.
The aunt looked at the photo, and a smile appeared on the corners of her cracked and purple mouth: "Actually, there is a story behind it that I haven't told you yet."
"I put aside my pride and my responsibility to my daughter and took the money, but got nothing in return. Instead, I was ridiculed and mocked by the people who killed my daughter."
"No one helped me. In the eyes of my neighbors, I bought my daughter's life with money."
"After feeling deeply guilty, I decided what I had to do, for both myself and my daughter."
"Every day I went to the school gate and sat on a stone bench waiting. My shabby clothes attracted a lot of attention. Some people even recognized me as Xiaoqin's mother. Because of what I had done, they looked at me with all kinds of expressions. Not pity, but mostly disgust."
"Those rich men and women who killed my daughter would tease me every time they saw me, asking if I was waiting for my daughter to finish school, and then drive away in their cars."
"I sit there every day, waiting for the school to be empty before I leave."
"Gradually, they all thought I was a crazy woman, imagining that their daughter was still alive and waiting at the school gate that day..."
"Although I've had these fantasies, I'm very clear-headed. I go to the school gate every day just to find out the whereabouts of those who killed my daughter."
"One day, they all got together, seemingly for a dinner party. Afterwards, they even had a private villa where they had a great time, completely forgetting that they had killed a person just a month ago."
"This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me. Looking at the time, I cut off the power and locked the iron door of the only exit tightly."
"Although I'm old, I do the rough work of men, so I'm quite strong. I took Lao Sha's hunting tranquilizer gun and walked into the dim building."
"I've prepared so much for this revenge. I've practiced with the gun countless times to master it. When two of them came out to check the power, my hand holding the gun didn't shake at all."
"With a tranquilizer gun, I completed a scene I'd imagined countless times. Inside an old house in the suburbs, they were tied to a chair, their mouths gagged. The look of fear and pleading in their eyes was exactly like the look my daughter had when she begged them to let her go."
"At that time, there was a voice in my head, it was my daughter's voice, she was begging me to do this."
"Because of my daughter, I can become a bad person, a murderer."
"I used to be afraid to even kill a chicken, but when it comes to treating them, I have no burden and no fear."
"I didn't think about whether my daughter would forgive me for my actions. I just felt that my life had lost its meaning. Why not do what I want to do before I die?"
Once people are freed from their restraints and have no worries, they become crazy.
Qin Nuo was a little stunned when he heard this, but not too shocked.
Mothers are strong, so it is not surprising that they do incredible things because of their daughters.
"Then why are you still alive now?" Shu Yue asked, with her hands in her pockets.
"I want to die."
"But in my mind, that voice sounded again. It was my daughter. She forgave me and told me to live no matter what. She would always be by my side."
The aunt said with a smile, a smile that was so relieved.
"The meticulous cleanup of the scene, the realistic acting, and the meticulous methods of getting rid of suspicion are all things I've never experienced before. Everyone has potential, but they just lack the medium to stimulate it. My daughter is my medium, and in the end, she helped me successfully get rid of suspicion."
"Those children's parents know it's me, but what can they do? Their eyes want to kill me, but they dare not. Why? They still have families and everything they've worked hard for, but I have nothing!"
The aunt smiled and looked at Shu Yue: "Girl, do you think that what your aunt did is gratifying or hateful?"
Shu Yue didn't answer directly: "I just feel that it's not worth it."
