Chapter 95
Nie Weijiang Extra
May 12, 2000, sunny, Beidaihe 281 Hospital Nursing Center.
Outside the cadre's ward, two people were whispering.
"Comrade Nie Weijiang's father has passed away. Originally, his stepmother should have informed him of the news, but yesterday morning, his nanny reported the case, saying that the mistress did not get up in the morning, and when they went in, they found that she was already dead. What should we do? He will soon be sent to the prison treatment center. Who will take care of him in the future?"
"His father owns a listed company. The assets he inherited are enough for him to spend his whole life. But, has the verdict really come down? Will he go to jail?"
"He incited and instigated mass demonstrations and hacked into the security websites of the military powers. This has already been legislated, and he was sentenced to 20 years in prison."
"But I think he did nothing wrong. The 512 incident was originally caused by the other party's wrongdoing. The demonstrations and the riots were not something he could have instigated alone. The Internet had just emerged. I didn't believe that a child who had been paralyzed since the age of five or six could cause such a big incident."
"Anyway, when something happens, someone should take the responsibility. Now, he is an orphan lying here, so he is the best person to take the responsibility."
"Hey, listen, there's music in it. It looks like he's in a good mood today. He's actually listening to music."
The lawyer slowly opened the door and looked around before she saw the young man in his thirties being pushed by the nurse next to the French window.
Outside the window is the clear, blue water. It is May and the weather is good. Many people come for treatment, and the waterside is full of people and children playing.
"Have all the people in this building been cleared out?" Nie Weijiang asked coldly.
This person is very strange. Since he has been paralyzed since childhood, he has not grown in height and his growth has only reached his shoulders. All his clothes are custom-made and are actually children's clothes.
But the head is an adult's head, as if an adult's head was broken off and attached to a child.
"All, all emptied. Mr. Nie, you can only stay here for half an hour. I know you like quiet and don't like to be disturbed, but in half an hour, the police will be here. Your sentence will be issued and you must serve your sentence in prison."
"My mother, went too?" His voice was still cold and without any emotion.
"It is said that she passed away peacefully." A 50-year-old woman, in good health, who had never given birth to a child, passed away inexplicably. The word "peacefully" sounded really weird.
"Okay, half an hour is fine. I don't like people. Clear all those people around the hot spring away."
The music played slowly, the prelude, the familiar voice of Li Guyi;
My country and I cannot be separated for even a moment;
Wherever I go, a song of praise flows out;
I sing every mountain, I sing every river;
A small village road with curling smoke...
"Mr. Nie, we can pay the rent for this building, but the swimming pool is a public place. The nursing home will not agree if we kick people out like this."
"Then invite them to the restaurant and have a seafood buffet for everyone. It'll all be charged to my bill," Nie Weijiang said lightly.
Well, the lawyer understood that this man would be transferred to a prison nursing home immediately and would never be free again. Even though he had been confined to a wheelchair and bed all his life.
However, he was the first person in the Republic to use the Internet. In order to allow him to use the Internet, his father was so supportive that he resigned from the oil system and started the first Internet company in the Republic.
Well, this emerging industry that no one was optimistic about actually made them father and son among the richest people.
Even if only his hands can move, in the words of Nie Weijiang, he is free on the Internet.
Unfortunately, starting from half an hour later, his computer will be confiscated, his property will be managed by others, and he will completely lose his freedom.
The lawyer thought that maybe he wanted to experience the freedom of spending money one more time.
Anyway, the Nie family has plenty of money, so just spend it.
My dearest motherland, I will always be close to your heart;
You speak to me with your mother's pulse;
My motherland and I are like the sea and its waves;
The waves are the children of the sea, and the sea is the support of the waves;
Whenever the sea smiles, I am the vortex of smile;
I share the sea's sorrow and its joy;
My dearest motherland, you are the sea that never dries up...
The volume of the music became louder and louder. It was obvious that Nie Weijiang was just playing music in his ward.
But I don’t know why, this song could be heard throughout the entire building, even from the speakers near the swimming pool.
"I can empathize with other people's patriotism, but I didn't expect that little Nie is such a patriot..." The personal nurse also went downstairs and was helping to persuade people by the swimming pool to go to the buffet. She looked back at Nie Weijiang sitting in front of the French window, and then thought about his life experience, and smiled bitterly, "His two brothers were shot, but he still loves his country. He is really innocent."
The man upstairs has been paralyzed since childhood and has not developed much, so of course his body is deformed.
The deformity was minor and the nurse was a woman, so it was easy for her to carry him in and out of bed and do other things.
If there was one good thing about him, it would definitely be his hands, which were ivory in color because they rarely saw the light and were now illuminated by the sun.
It became whiter and whiter, and, judging from the frequency of its trembling, it seemed to be clapping to rhythm.
"What should we do? Judging from what he means, we have to withdraw," said the lawyer.
The nurse turned around and took another look at Nie Weijiang. His ivory face was bathed in sunlight. His facial features were so beautiful that, in ancient Chinese, he had sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, red lips and white teeth. He was simply the younger version of his father, Nie Bozhao.
"Okay, let's go out too. I think he must be feeling very uncomfortable right now. He is the only one left in the family and he will be sent to jail soon." The nurse said, turned around and went to the buffet restaurant.
The lawyer took two steps and felt that the singing was too loud. No, he thought Nie Weijiang might be crazy.
My country and I cannot be separated for even a moment;
Wherever I go, a song of praise flows out;
I sing every mountain, I sing every river;
A small village road with curling smoke;
My dearest motherland, I will always be close to your heart;
Always give me the song in my heart;
La… la…
Always give me the song in my heart;
The singing continued, and people in the buffet restaurant ran out one after another, shouting, "Who is playing the song? It's so loud, it's killing me."
Suddenly, the loud music was drowned out by another sound of sudden collapse or explosion. The lawyer looked back and suddenly realized that Nie Weijiang had blown up the entire building.
The music stopped abruptly, the lawyer looked at the nurse, and the nurse looked at the lawyer.
A black and white photo emerged from the rising smoke.
The photo shows two young men, one with a delicate figure folding his arms, the other with a strong figure grinning. Under his sweater half-tucked into his trousers is a shiny leather belt, and he has a smaller one on his shoulder.
The year was 1985. Nie Weiguo, the gangster, was good at singing, fighting, smoking, drinking and gambling. He would not have been arrested if he had not sung a song for his brother who was lying in the hospital.
That song is "My Motherland and I".
"You are a gangster, a fighter, and you are patriotic. Isn't that ridiculous?" someone said.
Nie Weiguo is tongue-tied and can't speak.
"We love the people of the Republic, every inch of land and every river, so we, the Nie brothers, rob the rich and help the poor. You vulgar people will not understand." Nie Weimin said so, he embraced his brother and touched his head lightly.
That year, Nie Weimin was only 21 years old and Nie Weiguo was 19 years old. They had watched too many martial arts films and gangland movies imported from Hong Kong, listened to too many decadent tapes, and were famous gangsters in Red Rock, with two knives on their waists and walking with a breeze.
Well, no matter whether they are evil or good, those who arm themselves always have self-righteous good intentions.
