Chapter 77: No Light of Day 06: No Light of Day
Chapter 6
"Xiao Ruohong, how many times have I told you to flush the toilet after using it?" The girl looked at the toilet that had not been flushed after use, and the yellow water stains on the toilet seat, and shouted to the boy who was playing games outside.
"Why don't you just take a shower? Stop complaining." The boy said impatiently.
"The house has been like this since I left for work in the morning. When I come back from a day's work, the house is still like this." The girl came out of the bathroom and unplugged the computer.
The boy stood up suddenly and pushed the girl away forcefully, "Are you sick?"
The girl was pushed to the ground.
The boy just took a look and plugged in the power cord to restart the computer.
The girl ignored the pain in her body and said, "Let's break up. I've had enough."
"Break up? A bitch like you who has been fucked by thousands of people and slept with thousands of people, if you leave me, no man do you think will want you."
The boy stood up and walked towards the girl, pinching her chin, "No one will want you except me."
The girl kicked the boy to the ground with all her strength. Every word he said was like a knife piercing her heart. "You begged me to be with you at the beginning. You didn't mind saying those things. Now you use them to hurt me. Xiao Ruohong, are you a human being?"
"I'm not a human?" Xiao Ruohong said with a smile, "I can be even less of a human."
"If we break up, I will post everything you did with your stepfather online, so that everyone will know how dirty you are."
"You think I'm dirty? Even if I never take a shower in my whole life, I'm still much cleaner than you."
The girl slapped him: "Beast."
She turned around and walked into the house, intending to pack her luggage and leave, but the boy chased her and kicked her into the bedroom from behind.
The girl was kicked down defenselessly and hit the corner of the bed. Before she could recover, a fist had already hit her head...
·
"I pity her, who will pity me?" She looked at the policeman opposite her, tears streaming down her face.
Everyone sympathized with Liao Qingya's situation.
Liao Qingya saw the expressions of Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue, and said with a smile and tears: "I know that you must feel very sympathetic towards me right now."
"At the beginning, he had the same expression and deceived me." Liao Qingya kept wiping away tears, "No one can empathize with me, and I don't need any sympathy."
"Your sympathy is only because you are police officers, you have been educated on right and wrong, and you know what is illegal and criminal. You sympathize with me because of your values based on the basic education of the law. If you were not police officers, you would be no different from those ordinary men. Maybe you would be worse than them."
The formation of the three views is very complex. It is related to the growth environment and the education received. It is undeniable that their current three views and thoughts are shaped by their responsibilities and obligations as police officers.
Lu Changfeng: "You didn't call the police because of your mother."
Liao Qingya said: "My father died, but I am very happy that he died. I think it is great that my mother and I will finally not be subjected to domestic violence."
"Before my biological brother was born, my grandparents hated me because I was a girl and they wanted a grandchild. My dad didn't like me either and beat me and my mom every day. I wanted to pull my mom away and I wanted my mom to take me away, but she didn't because she was pregnant."
"My grandparents were looking forward to having a grandchild and were very good to her, but they also wanted to vent their anger on someone, so I became that person. She thought things would get better after she had a son, but she was wrong. My grandparents and my father liked sons, not me who could give birth to a son. She was still beaten after giving birth. She was beaten if the rice was soft, if the vegetables were salty or bland, if my brother was sick, and if he was distressed."
"I kept looking forward to it, suffering day after day. I thought, it would be better when I grow up, if my grandparents and dad were all dead, then I wouldn't have to be beaten. Unfortunately, only my dad died. My grandparents kicked me and her out of the house. I thought that was good, so I wouldn't have to be beaten or bullied. But I didn't expect that she would marry again. Even after being beaten all over by my dad, she would still choose to believe in a man."
"She always said that she didn't want to divorce me for my sake, because she was afraid that I would not have a father, but I know that she didn't do that for me." Liao Qingya's eyes were red, and her vision was blurred by the overflowing tears. "I don't understand. I still don't understand why she didn't divorce me, why she refused to take me away. Why did she want to jump into the next fire pit after being freed?"
"Qin Ou was very nice at first. He was willing to spend money on me and her. I also thought he would be a good father. I felt an unprecedented warmth from him, a warmth that I had never felt from my biological father."
"He said he wanted to give me a bath. I was very young at the time and didn't understand anything. My mother often bathed my brother, so I thought it was normal. Later, when I grew up, I realized that it was not a bath at all. He was using the bath as an excuse to violate me. I told my mother, but she didn't believe me."
"I wanted them to divorce, but she was pregnant again. I watched her belly grow bigger day by day, and I knew she would not divorce or help me. I could only help myself and avoid him, but that house was his, how could I hide? I thought my mother would not be indifferent after seeing it with her own eyes, but I never thought that she would be the one who closed the door."
Every time I think about it, I am making a few more holes in my broken heart.
"I thought about committing suicide, calling the police, and even killing them all, but she is my only relative in this world. My grandparents, brothers and sisters are not my relatives. She was the only one who applied medicine to me and bought me candy when I was beaten as a child. She was my only light in the darkness. As long as I think of these little kindnesses, I can't bear to be cruel to her. She is my mother. I hate her, but I can't give up on her."
She didn't scream at the top of her lungs, but her pain was enough to overwhelm everyone.
Before they knew it, everyone who heard her words was already in tears.
Lu Changfeng even thought about his own life experience. He didn't know what he had done wrong to be thrown into the trash can by his parents like garbage.
I was teased as a wild child since I was a child, because I had no parents.
The other children were picked up by their parents, but he went home alone.
Although the grandfather who adopted him did not give him very good living conditions, he tried his best to give him the best. Every candy he ate was hard-earned by his grandfather. His grandfather made a living by picking up scraps, and he was also the scraps picked up by his grandfather. But before he could grow up and let his grandfather live a good life, his grandfather passed away.
"Sorry." Lu Changfeng stood up: "I'm going to the bathroom."
After saying this, he left the interrogation room as quickly as possible.
Jing Jue noticed that something was wrong with Lu Changfeng and immediately stood up and followed him out.
He didn’t know whether others could empathize with Liao Qingya, but he could empathize with what Liao Qingya said—“the only light in the darkness without sunlight.”
For him, Lu Changfeng is the only light.
When he was most helpless, it was Lu Changfeng who brought him out of the abyss.
He knew Lu Changfeng's background very well, so he could guess why Lu Changfeng lost his composure at this moment.
As a psychologist, Chen Minzhi also noticed that something was wrong with Lu Changfeng and wanted to follow him. She met Jing Jue who had chased after him in the corridor.
Jing Jue stopped Chen Minzhi and said, "I'll go."
No one wants a psychologist to pry into their heart when they are feeling sad.
Kuai Li also came out to check the situation, "Xiao Jing, what happened to your team?"
"Captain Lu has a strong ability to empathize with others." Jing Jue said, "Captain Kuai, please arrange for two female police officers to calm Liao Qingya down. Captain Lu and I may not be suitable to continue questioning her."
"good."
After Jing Jue finished speaking, he strode in the direction where Lu Changfeng left.
There were not many people in the tea room. Lu Changfeng stood by the window and covered his eyes, not wanting to let the tears flow.
Liao Qingya reminded him of his guilt towards his grandfather. His grandfather had passed away many years ago, and Lu Changfeng had been alone all these years.
He has no home.
He also couldn't start a family.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Lu Changfeng hurriedly wiped away his tears.
Jing Jue stood beside him and handed him a tissue: "Cry if you want to. They are not here. I am the only one here."
Lu Changfeng: "I just came out to get some fresh air."
"Yeah." Jing Jue pulled Lu Changfeng to face him. Looking at his moist eyes, Lu Changfeng wanted to turn his head but was held by Jing Jue. "You are also my only light."
"I understand. You can go back." Lu Changfeng wanted to send Jing Jue away.
Jing Jue remained motionless: "Even if we can't be lovers, I will always be a family to you."
He reached out and hugged Lu Changfeng, and Lu Changfeng tried to push him away but failed.
"It's not good if people see it."
"Cry now, cry when no one is around, you will feel better after you're done crying. I will leave when you're done crying."
Lu Changfeng finally couldn't hold back and tears burst out.
He has known since he was a child that not all parents love their children.
After crying, Lu Changfeng pushed Jing Jue away.
Jing Jue asked him, "Are you feeling better?"
Lu Changfeng nodded: "Go back quickly."
Jing Jue took advantage of Lu Changfeng's inattention and quickly kissed him on the mouth, "Interest."
He ran away after the kiss, fearing that he would be beaten.
When Lu Changfeng came to his senses, everyone was gone.
Only the wetness on his lips reminded him that he had just been kissed.
Lu Changfeng pursed his lips and chuckled, "She's both cowardly and a teaser."
Jing Jue did not leave. He leaned against the wall, listened to Lu Changfeng's murmurs, then turned around and walked back.
"Is Captain Lu okay?" Kuai Li asked.
Jing Jue shook his head: "It's okay, that's what happens to people with strong empathy. No one would not feel sad about what happened to Liao Qingya."
Kuai Li nodded and sighed, "How can there be a mother who treats her own child like that?"
"The father was not much better. Liao Qingya's tragedy was doomed from the moment she was born into a family that favored boys over girls. Cai Yun was the perpetrator, but she was also a victim."
Lu Changfeng calmed down and washed his face in the sink.
Jing Jue and the others were still standing in the corridor.
Kuai Li did not mention Lu Changfeng's departure, and asked him: "Do you want to continue the trial or postpone it?"
"Let's slow down. We need to slow down. Liao Qingya also needs to slow down."
"good."
After entering the monitoring room, Sharon Chan cast her gaze over to him, but Jing Jue blocked it without making a sound.
Lu Changfeng looked at Liao Qingya crying in the interrogation room and remained silent.
Jing Jue poured a cup of hot water for Lu Changfeng.
With the comfort of the female police officer, Liao Qingya felt much better.
"Let the female police officer continue the questioning on our behalf. I will give instructions through the headset and will not go in." Lu Changfeng and Kuai Li said.
"Comrade Xiaojing has already made arrangements."
Lu Changfeng looked at Jing Jue, who kept his head down and never raised it.
“Well done.”
