Chapter 103 War in the Toilet



The weather is too hot, so the millet can be left aside and cooked a little, but the boiled eggs must be eaten within a day.

Wei Dingbang drank most of the box of millet porridge, sat down and peeled three boiled eggs, chewed them one by one and swallowed them, while his hands kept peeling two more.

When I ate the fourth one, my stomach started to feel uncomfortable.

There was one peeled egg left, which I held in my hand.

Thinking that Lu Manyue would come downstairs soon, and if she saw him peeling the egg even though he couldn't finish it, she would definitely think he was wasting money, he planned to throw the remaining egg into the toilet to get rid of it.

Just as they reached the end of the corridor, Lu Manyue came downstairs.

He quickly held the egg in his hand, and pretended to enjoy the scenery while lying on the balcony and looking into the distance.

Lu Manyue couldn't control her eyes, so she just ignored it and looked around Wei Dingbang's ward. When she saw that there was no one inside, she seemed to be relieved, but also a little disappointed.

Just as I was about to look away, I accidentally glanced into the distance and saw Wei Dingbang lying on the balcony at the end of the aisle, holding a peeled egg in his hand, as if looking at the scenery.

Suddenly, a small head popped out from the window of the ward behind Wei Dingbang, revealing a face that looked both angry and happy.

Almond-shaped eyes, thin and long eyebrows, red lips and white teeth.

She called him "Brother Wei" in a sweet voice.

Lu Manyue hurried downstairs, her fingernails digging deeply into the soft flesh of her palm, causing severe pain.

It turned out that Wei Dingbang took Yang Heping's eggs to give to Zhou Ruhua.

He even peeled it and sent it to me. How thoughtful.

Seeing myself coming, I feel guilty and will pretend to enjoy the scenery.

Oh, why don't you feed it to someone else?

When Wei Dingbang saw Lu Manyue leave, he hurried to the toilet.

Zhou Ruhua looked at the egg in his hand eagerly and said pitifully, "Brother Wei, I've been hungry for a whole day and haven't eaten anything yet. It would be a waste if you don't eat this egg, why don't you give it to me?"

Wei Dingbang said nothing, walked quickly past Zhou Ruhua's window, and went straight into the men's restroom.

Just as he was about to throw away the egg in his hand, a thin, pale-faced patient who had just finished peeing and was pulling up his pants quickly said, "Oh my God, eggs, why are you throwing away such a good thing? If you don't want it, give it to me."

Wei Dingbang was silent for a few seconds and then handed the egg to the man.

The man stuffed a whole egg into his mouth like a starving ghost, but because he ate too quickly, he choked.

His face soon turned blue.

Wei Dingbang could only punch him on the back, and the egg popped out of the man's mouth and fell to the ground.

The man immediately squatted down, picked up the egg quickly, ran to the faucet to wash it, and stuffed it into his mouth again. After putting half of it in, he thought about how he almost choked to death just now, so he bit off a small half, chewed it twice, and swallowed it.

He ate the egg in a few bites, then looked at Wei Dingbang embarrassedly and explained, "I really have no money and have been hungry for a few days. Does the way I eat scare you?"

Wei Dingbang looked at him carefully, frowned suddenly, and reached out to grab him. "You escaped from the labor camp, right?"

Wei Dingbang's hand clamped the man's wrist tightly like an iron pair of pliers.

The man struggled and shook it off but couldn't, his face turned pale with anxiety.

Wei Dingbang lowered his head and looked at his pitifully thin wrist, his brows suddenly furrowed into a "川" shape.

How can a person be so thin?

In the slightly dark toilet, two people were facing each other.

Wei Dingbang was tall and strong, and the man, who was so thin that only skin and bones were left, was trembling all over, his heart filled with fear.

Wei Dingbang's eyes were as cold as ice, and his whole body exuded an inhuman and cold feeling.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, the man took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then said, "Brother, I beg you, let me go."

Wei Dingbang looked at the man, his eyes relaxed for a moment.

Seeing this, the man's eyes suddenly lit up with a faint light, and he quickly continued to plead: "I'm really not a bad person, I'm just a weak scholar, I wrote something inappropriate and offended people, so I was sent to a farm for forced labor."

Wei Dingbang was silent for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he finally said, "Bad people never say they are bad."

The man's heart tightened, but he knew this was his only chance. He quickly said, "I really didn't do anything bad. I just like to write some sour poems. I didn't know that my unintentional mistake could be used by someone with ulterior motives to put a black hat on me and send me off the farm. If I had known earlier... how could I have used that little ability and ended up having no home to return to."

Wei Dingbang loosened his grip on the man, but he kept talking: "Whether it's good or bad, we'll find out when we get to the farm."

Seeing that Wei Dingbang was so heartless even at this point, the man stood there in despair. The faint light in his eyes slowly disappeared, and he was like a lifeless dead tree, without any trace of life in him.

"The farm is just trying to scare you into reform through labor. You will be released when the term is up. As long as you haven't committed any serious crime of murder or arson and behave yourself, you will naturally return home one day. Isn't it an even greater crime for you to escape halfway? I am saving you by sending you back." Wei Dingbang said slowly.

The man kept shaking his head, his voice desperate and sobbing, "No, you don't know what kind of life the people there live...

No one gets out alive.

If there was no hope, how could a coward like me think of running away?!

If you send me back, I will really have no way out.

I will never see Suzhen again. I will never go home again. "

"Will we die if we go back to the farm? No one can get out?" Wei Dingbang repeated the man's words in a deep voice.

The man nodded, suddenly knelt down, and a tear instantly welled up in the corner of his dry eyes, "Please, let me go, I escaped because of Brother Jinchang's desperate efforts to hold back the guards.

He was almost dying from being beaten, and they didn't treat him. His wounds were all festering. He knew he couldn't escape, so he told me to survive, go home, and find his wife, and to help him survive as well.

I had gone through so much trouble to escape from Qingcheng to Hongxing. I was just a little bit away from getting on the coal train and returning to Shanghai to see Suzhen.

I can't be sent back to the farm at this time.

Brother, I beg you. "

The man burst into tears.

If he knew that eating an egg would get him arrested, he would rather starve to death than ask for an egg.

But he was really hungry. The eggs smelled so good that the aroma went straight into his nose. At that moment, his mind went blank and only the desire to eat remained.

"Jin Chang? How old are you?" Wei Dingbang suddenly asked.
