Chapter 229 The Human World
A lot of thoughts ran through her mind in an instant. She swallowed and quickly grabbed Fu Chuji's hand when he wanted to take another brick.
"Forget it, I don't really want to watch it."
Fu Chuji refused, and looked at her with dark eyes:
"Scared"
Shen Nuoxin thought, who wouldn't be afraid when thinking about the corpse behind it.
"I can pretend that what happened tonight never happened."
She held his hand tightly and spoke to him seriously.
Fu Chuji was not moved at all by her words, and his face even became colder.
“It never happened”
He repeated her words, pulled the corner of his lip and said:
"You're dreaming."
Shen Nuo: “…”
She just thought that this man was so ungrateful. Her willingness to help him conceal this matter had exceeded her moral bottom line for so many years.
As a result, he got angry.
Shen Nuo was also a little angry. She watched him continue to tear down the wall and said through gritted teeth:
"What else can I do except pretend I don't know? Can I just watch you go to jail?"
Before he could finish his words, he saw Fu Chuji moving an iron box out of the wall.
It doesn't look like it's big enough to hold a person.
Shen Nuo: “”
"What did you say"
Shen Nuo was about to say it was nothing, when he turned around and asked calmly:
“Why am I in jail?”
“…”
Fu Chuji looked at her indescribable expression and asked calmly:
"You thought I killed someone"
Shen Nuo didn't dare to look him in the eye.
She lowered her head and defended herself, "You're so secretive, with all the talk about the death diary and the wall demolition, how can I know what you mean? Anyone would misunderstand, okay?"
Fu Chuji stared at her: "Really? So you just wanted to shield the criminal?"
She changed the subject: "What do those two words 'death' mean?"
"Dead."
""
"But it has nothing to do with me. Everyone here treats every day as if it were their last."
His expression was indifferent, and his calm tone seemed to be saying that the weather was very good today.
Shen Nuo's heart tightened, and he felt even more ashamed when he thought about how he had misunderstood him just now.
"So what's in here?"
She turned her gaze to the big iron box again.
Fu Chuji didn't say anything. He found a key from another crack in the wall and opened the lock on the box.
But what was inside the box was beyond Shen Nuo's expectations.
The box was filled with money of all denominations.
Shen Nuo made a rough estimate and estimated that the total amount was probably several thousand yuan.
Fu Chuji found a ticket at the bottom and narrated calmly:
"When the Fu family came to see me, I had just bought a ticket to Haicheng."
I don't remember how old he was at that time, maybe seventeen or eighteen.
All I remember is that he had just finished the college entrance examination and was eager to escape from here, so he counted the money he had saved from working part-time over the years and applied for the Ocean University, which was the farthest away from here.
However, before he had the time to leave, someone from the Fu family came up to him and, without even asking about his wishes, took him back to the Fu family in a tough manner and changed his college entrance examination application.
After returning to the Fu family, he was under surveillance for a long time and had no chance to come back.
He hid the money in the wall because he was afraid that Lin Yaxiang would come back and find it one day, and then she would take the money for herself without hesitation.
But probably because he was adopted by the Fu family and Old Master Fu gave her a sum of money, she didn't care about this little bit of money at all and never came here again.
When he said these words, his expression did not change from beginning to end, as if he was talking about someone else's experience.
Shen Nuo looked down at the money in the box and didn't say anything for a long time.
Until suddenly there was a loud bang outside, like someone was banging on the door, which scared her.
But it seemed that the door was not smashed.
"Bang, bang, bang."
There were a few more loud noises, followed by unbearable insults, and Shen Nuo vaguely heard words like "pay back the money".
She asked, “What is this doing?”
Fu Chuji: "Let's collect the debt."
This kind of thing happens all the time in places like this.
Sure enough, not long after, the sound of a door opening was heard outside, and the man humbly begged the debt collector to give him more time.
He was responded with fists and kicks from his opponent.
The debt collectors swore a few more times before the sound of their footsteps as they left was heard.
Shen Nuo stood up and walked to the door. He looked outside through the crack and saw a man sitting on the ground with a bruised face and nose.
Not long after, the door behind him opened again, and this time a heavily made-up woman came out, holding a bag.
She cursed at the man on the ground, "You're such a loser! I thought you earned that money yourself, but it turns out you borrowed it. You're wasting my time."
After she finished cursing, she was about to leave, but the man seemed to come to his senses at this moment and stopped her from leaving.
"You spent my money and you want to leave like this? I tell you, it's impossible!"
"Well, what do you want to do? You want me to marry you with your little money? It's ridiculous."
The woman snorted and turned to leave, but the man grabbed her wrist tightly and looked at her with red eyes.
"You are not allowed to leave. I spent so much money, you have to give it back to me."
"You want me to spit out something that's in my mouth? Dream on."
Shen Nuo watched the two men fight, and the woman was pushed down and hit the wall next to her.
She screamed and tried to grab the man's face. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of Shen Nuo peeking at her from the corner of her eye, and immediately shifted her focus.
"What are you looking at, you bitch? Are you trying to make fun of me? Get out of here! I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
As she spoke, she reached into the crack of the door and tried to pull Shen Nuo out.
But a man suddenly appeared from the door, and the woman quickly withdrew her hand.
It was simple, just because she saw the other person holding a knife in his hand.
The man outside saw that she had turned off the engine and was confused. He cursed:
"What are you afraid of? No one has been back next door for so long. Maybe these two people are thieves, and I'm just helping them catch them."
He walked up and kicked the door, and the old wooden door was kicked open.
Fu Chuji played with the knife in his hand, turning it around skillfully, and looked at the people outside with his eyelids raised:
"Something's happening"
He spoke casually, but for some reason the man outside the door paled.
"Why don't you go in if you want to catch the thief?" The woman was still provoking him from outside.
The man turned around and glared at her, "Shut up!"
He looked at Fu Chuji again, smiled awkwardly and said, "I thought you wouldn't come back, and I thought you were a thief."
He noticed the woman next to him, looked at her twice, and clearly felt that the air pressure around the person in front of him suddenly dropped.
