Side Story: The Seven Stars Align (Continued)



The hemp rope was rough; it was twisted by the villagers themselves.

I watched her slowly stand up and then walk step by step to a wooden stool.

No! Don't!

My heart ached terribly.

This idiot, does she really intend to do as others say, stand on a stool, hang herself from the roof beam with a rope?

"No...it wasn't hanging..."

She slowly walked over the wooden bench, then went to a simple wardrobe, opened the door, and took out a man's shirt.

That was a shirt my father loved to wear before he passed away.

She put on her father's clothes, wrapped herself up tightly, covering herself up completely, tidied her disheveled hair, and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.

She took a shortcut to the county public security bureau to report the case.

I breathed a long sigh of relief.

I knew it. How could she possibly die just because she was bullied?

Even if they have to die, let them die.

I calmed myself down and continued to look at the other version of myself in the dream.

The scene shifts to the Huichuan County Public Security Bureau.

Two policemen were sitting opposite her, one older and one younger. I heard them address each other, and it seemed that one was surnamed Hao and the other Zhang.

They didn't write down what she said; instead, the policeman surnamed Hao looked her up and down with a rather amused gaze.

That gaze was filled with blatant malice, and I unconsciously frowned.

"Officer, please examine my injuries immediately and collect evidence."

She clearly noticed his unfriendly gaze and spoke up.

"laugh--"

The policeman surnamed Hao suddenly scoffed, "Collect evidence? Collect what evidence? At such a young age, you have the nerve to say such things?"

"I reported it to the police. Niu Guang and Liu Baobao raped me, I..."

Although she managed to maintain a calm expression on her face, her voice was trembling, and her hands were clenched tightly together, her knuckles turning white.

He still didn't bring up the idea of ​​checking the bodily fluids left by Niu Guang and Liu Baobao.

The policeman surnamed Hao leaned back lazily in his chair, brazenly examining the bruises and welts on her fair face, then smiled and said to the older policeman next to him:

"Look at this, most young girls would be so ashamed if something like this happened, who would even have the mind to report it to the police?"

"Tsk tsk, securing evidence? Tsk tsk, you have the nerve to say that? I'm embarrassed to even hear it!"

The police officer surnamed Zhang couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted him, "According to regulations, we need to secure evidence first. Since they've already filed a report..."

Before Officer Zhang could finish speaking, Officer Hao leaned in and whispered something to him.

I keenly noticed the change in Officer Zhang's expression, and my heart sank.

Sure enough, after Officer Hao finished speaking, Officer Zhang picked up his peaked cap and strolled out.

"Officer Zhang..."

"Oh? Oh, I need to go out and use the restroom!"

Soon only two people remained in the room.

Officer Hao walked up to her, bent down, his eyes were cold and sharp, and his tone was like ice.

"Stop making a fuss. You're an orphan with no parents. You're blocking other people's way. It would be so much cleaner to just die quietly!"

"Would it do any good to call the police?"

"Let me tell you the truth, even if you report it to the city or the province, it won't do you any good!"

She was trembling with anger, but her mind was becoming increasingly clear. "Who did I offend?"

Officer Hao raised an eyebrow, his gaze playful. "Yes, who did you offend?"

I had a vague suspicion in my mind, but I didn't want to admit it.

Time passed slowly, and just as she was becoming increasingly anxious, the door was suddenly flung open.

Looking back against the light of the setting sun, my heart skipped a beat.

It's Niu Guang and Liu Baobao!

She struggled to get up, not wanting to be taken away by the two men, and tried to attract the attention of other officers in the police station.

But for some reason, the huge police station was completely empty!

She was taken away by Niu Guang and Liu Baobao and locked in an abandoned mud house.

The mud house must have been uninhabited for a long time; as soon as she entered, a cloud of dust rose up, choking her and causing her to cough incessantly.

Niu Guang squatted down, reached out and grabbed her neck, saying viciously, "You're pretty capable, daring to call the police!"

"Let me tell you the truth, someone doesn't want you to leave Lijiapo, so you can't leave even a step!"

She felt short of breath, her face turned bright red, and she saw stars.

"...Who...who...is...who..."

Niu Guang, perhaps fearing he would strangle her to death, finally let go.

She gasped for air, but her mind grew clearer and clearer; Niu Guang only wanted her to die.

He dared not kill her for the time being.

As long as she's alive, she'll be able to meet Uncle Yuliang and the brigade leader then...

"Little girl, don't even think about asking others for help. Who can you ask? Liu Yuliang? Li Jin? Hahahaha~"

Niu Guang seemed to know what she was thinking, and laughed arrogantly, "You think they can help you?"

"Two peasants!"

Niu Guang glared at her fiercely, "If you don't want them to suffer along with you, you'd better not go looking for them."

I was startled, and then I heard Niu Guang continue, "It would be as easy for the people above to crush them as to crush an ant."

She suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon.

yes!

If things are really as she and I think, what can Uncle Yuliang and the brigade leader do?

It seems that it was to verify something for her, because the job that the brigade leader had promised her at the Wudahe Commune pumping station fell through.
