As a soldier, Zhuang Sheng couldn't just turn a blind eye to something like this. So, he said to Liu Ruonan and the others, "Wait here. I'll go over and take a look."
The situation is a bit chaotic now, and he is afraid that Liu Ruonan will get hurt if she follows.
Liu Ruonan understood Zhuang Sheng's personality and his responsibilities, so she did not try to stop him.
Zhuang Sheng walked through the crowd and arrived at the entrance to the restaurant, only to see a slovenly man standing there cursing. His clothes were already tattered, and his hair hadn't been washed in ages, becoming tangled and tangled. He also exuded a foul odor.
It was almost summer, but he was still wearing his winter coat, ragged and tattered, with the cotton wool inside tangled in a black knot and hanging out.
His face was dirty and black, and it seemed like he hadn't washed it in a long time.
Many people couldn't help but cover their mouths when they saw such people.
Zhuang Sheng walked up to the manager and asked, "Hello, what happened?"
Zhuang Sheng had come straight from the army to the restaurant, where he picked up his family and went to eat. Since they often had their meals together at this restaurant, the owner had already known them. Furthermore, Zhuang Sheng was wearing a military uniform, and the moment the manager saw him, it was like he had found a savior, and his helpless expression instantly relaxed.
"Oh! Comrade soldier, look at this guy, he's a psychopath. He's come here more than once. He's given food when he wants it, and starts cursing when we ask him to leave. We cook here, and with him like this, it's impossible for guests to eat here."
The manager explained.
Zhuang Sheng probably understood.
They come here for dinner every week, and they have never seen such a psychopath before.
Gao Shanshan was young and curious about everything. She also liked to join in the fun. Without caring about Chen Jianmin's obstruction, she pushed her petite body through the crowded crowd and came to Zhuang Sheng, looking curiously at what was happening in front of her.
Zhuang Sheng nodded and said, "How long has this been going on?"
"It's been four days in a row. He comes here every day at mealtime and refuses to leave even after being given food. People say he is a fool, but I think he is very energetic and never starves himself." The manager was obviously helpless when he said this.
At the time, he had been kindhearted, pitying the man and offering him a bite to eat. Unexpectedly, this led to his revenge. Not only did he take the food, but he also received a scolding, which made his business difficult. Everyone gathered around to watch the fun.
Zhuang Sheng stepped forward, intending to comfort the ragged man with his disciple, but before he could even get close, he heard Gao Shanshan exclaim, "Oh my God! Isn't this Liu Dazhuang?"
Everyone was waiting with bated breath to see how Zhuang Sheng, the soldier, would handle this matter. At this moment, the dining room was somewhat quiet. Gao Shanshan's voice seemed a little abrupt at this moment.
Her scream also attracted the attention of Liu Ruonan and everyone sitting nearby. They looked at each other and then hurried over.
The manager looked at Gao Shanshan in surprise, then looked at Zhuang Sheng and asked doubtfully, "Comrade soldiers, do you know this fool?"
Perhaps Gao Shanshan's voice was too loud, which made the man who was cursing stop. He looked up at Gao Shanshan, then at Zhuang Sheng, and ran away.
Just as he looked at Zhuang Sheng, Zhuang Sheng was sure in an instant that this person was indeed Liu Dazhuang.
However, he didn't expect why Liu Dazhuang appeared here.
He knew that after the incident with Liu Ergou, Liu Dazhuang had disappeared, and no one knew where he had gone. His mother, Mei Hong, had also completely vanished. From then on, there was no longer any trace of the Liu family in the village.
I didn't expect to meet Liu Dazhuang here today.
And Zhuang Sheng seemed to understand why Liu Dazhuang ran away when he saw him.
I remember two years ago, when Liu Dazhuang was having an attack, he happened to run into Liu Ruonan in the fields. Liu Dazhuang was a man with an uncontrollable mind, and he took the shovel and was about to hit Liu Ruonan, but fortunately Liu Ruonan ran away quickly and dodged him.
At that time, everyone working in the fields tried to pull Liu Dazhuang away, but he was incredibly strong and swung his shovel around wildly. No one dared to approach him, fearing they would get hurt.
Zhuang Sheng, who happened to be passing by, saw this incident. He quickly snatched the shovel from Liu Dazhuang's hand with his nimble hands. Because Liu Dazhuang struggled desperately, Zhuang Sheng, fearing that he would hurt someone, had no choice but to use some force on him.
From then on, Liu Dazhuang ran away whenever he saw Zhuang Sheng.
And, it's like this every time.
Zhuang Sheng immediately chased after him. At this point, he didn't think much about it. It's like meeting an old friend in a foreign land. Even if this old friend is mentally ill, he's still a fellow villager after all.
What's more, the ending of their family was so tragic. The father was sentenced to death, the mother disappeared, and left behind a mentally ill son. It is truly a miracle that they can survive to this day.
It is impossible for Zhuangzi to ignore this.
Liu Dazhuang ran so fast that Zhuang Sheng had to work hard to catch him.
The moment he was caught, Liu Dazhuang immediately squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, muttering: "Don't hit me, don't hit me. I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone!"
Zhuang Sheng felt mixed emotions and felt very uncomfortable.
Liu Dazhuang's mental illness wasn't constant, but rather recurring. When he wasn't having an attack, he seemed like a good person. However, he couldn't stand being provoked, as he would have an attack if he was. Furthermore, no one knew what would trigger him.
Zhuang Sheng grabbed his clothes with one hand and slowly squatted down.
His handsome brows were tightly knitted into a knot, and he looked at Liu Dazhuang with a complicated expression. He removed his arm from holding his head, looked at Liu Dazhuang and asked, "Dazhuang, do you know me?"
Liu Dazhuang didn't dare to look up at Zhuang Sheng, as if he was afraid that he would hit him. After a long time, he nodded gently.
"Why are you here?" Zhuang Sheng asked.
He really didn't know under what circumstances Liu Dazhuang had come to the provincial capital alone. How had he survived for so long?
From late autumn to winter, and from winter to spring, it's almost summer now... The four seasons have changed, and for such a long time, what has he been through? How did he survive?
Thinking of this, Zhuang Sheng still felt a little distressed. Although Liu Dazhuang's father had once wanted to do something inappropriate to his wife, fortunately, no bad consequences were caused.
