Zhou Qi sat on the bed and slowly exhaled.
Although, in a serious place like the Public Security Bureau, he was put in a cell and isolated.
They even have to be watched with surveillance cameras.
But he still felt unparalleled peace and relaxation.
This is not a psychological effect.
At the end of the world, when the world is flooded once by the "tide", there will be an extra substance, or energy, particles, etc. in the entire world.
This substance is related to human endocrine and genetic locks.
Whenever there are relatively large fluctuations in emotions, this substance will soak into the human body, precipitate in the genes, and slowly transform the human body.
When these particles accumulate to a certain level, people will become genetically distorted and become monsters.
It cannot be reversed.
And now... there is no such substance in the air.
Not even a tiny bit.
"It's so comfortable."
He moved his body, lay down on the bed, raised his hands and put them behind his head.
Quietly feel the peace that is as precious as gold at this moment.
But in his mind, he couldn't help but recall the apocalyptic world that had been infected by the "tide".
Think about it, what should people do to survive in such an environment?
Of course you have to try your best to control your emotions!
so,
There is no room for despair, no fear, no anger, sadness, excitement, or excitement in the apocalypse.
There will no longer be the tragedy of generously serving righteousness, there will no longer be the enthusiasm to fight side by side, there will no longer be the achievement and satisfaction of saving tens of millions of people...
Nor will there be anything blazing,
like.
In order to resist the doomsday, people must abandon their "useless" emotions, use various cruel training methods to overcome their instincts, and then arm themselves with a cold shell.
Such a human being,
Extremely powerful.
However, in the end, they all became cold-blooded lunatics...
"..."
At this moment, Zhou Qi was staring at the bright incandescent lamp on the ceiling, his eyes were so dazzled that he couldn't see anything clearly, but he felt,
In the deepest and deepest part of my heart, there seems to be something crawling upward little by little. It is weak and tough. It was buried a long time ago, and now, it longs to see the light of day again.
He closed his eyes and couldn't help but smile.
Finally, I no longer have to struggle in such a desperate environment...
"I hope this is not a dream..."
…
"I hope this isn't a dream."
Su Zhiyun breathed out lightly and murmured.
At this time, she had walked out of the Public Security Bureau and was standing on the side of the road with her hands behind her back, looking at the cars passing by on the street and the sky that had more clouds than in the morning.
She didn't expect that there would be such a development.
A student's sudden madness breaks her routine.
Although, the end did not come as he said.
But everything has become different...
She turned her head to look at the Sheriff's Department, and when she came back, the corner of her mouth curled up slightly.
Although her expression was still so cold and calm, and the arc of her dark eyes did not change at all, she did look... somewhat happy.
Sudden,
The sun was covered by clouds again, and the sky became gloomy,
There was a gust of wind blowing.
He blew up the two strands of hair and ponytail hanging from her temples, and also made the thin white shirt crinkly cling to her waist, tracing the beautiful curves on one side of her body.
But it also made her feel a little cold.
The weather is like this when summer has not yet fully entered. It is obviously very hot, but sometimes, there is a sudden coolness.
Her hands behind her back could not help but grasp her forearms.
Not far away, a passerby saw this scene:
A woman with an upright figure stood there with her hands behind her back, her expression silent, her delicate and beautiful face with hair swaying in the wind.
She stood on an ordinary street, but she stood in the majestic world...
clang!
"hiss……"
The passerby who hit the street lamp railing covered his head. It took him a while to recover from the pain, but in an instant he was replaced by embarrassment and embarrassment. He lowered his head and left quickly.
Beep!
A white Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of Su Zhiyun and honked its horn twice.
"..."
Su Zhiyun paused, walked forward, opened the passenger door and got in.
"Going to school?" the handsome man behind the wheel asked gently.
"Yeah." Su Zhiyun responded lightly.
The car started again,
The man turned his head slightly and was about to ask something.
call--
The car window opened a little, and the noise filled the car.
"..."
The man swallowed the words on his lips.
…………
the other side.
Zhou Qi's family did come to Zhonghai City from Taoyang City, which is nearly a hundred kilometers away.
However, because they could not contact Zhou Qi and their request to visit Zhou Qi was rejected by the Public Security Bureau, they had no choice but to come to Zhonghai University.
At this moment, they were in the reception room arranged by the school, learning about Zhou Qi's situation.
"...Then, that's about it, Mr. Zhou, Ms. Li, and Zhou Qi's sister, Zhou Qi... has indeed done a lot of wrong things, and there must be punishments, but they are definitely not that serious. You guys Don't worry too much...
Hmm... and about the kidnapping, don't worry. I received news that no one was harmed there, so the nature is different, and... although the Public Security Department informed that Zhou Qi had been kidnapped behavior, but there has been no final notice, maybe there is some misunderstanding..."
It was Guan Xiao who spoke.
At this time, she was sitting across a table across from Zhou Qi's parents and sister. Her baby face with light makeup had an haggard look that could not be concealed, but she still tried hard to maintain a serious expression and polite tone while speaking. , while also carefully considering the words, because she wants to ensure that what she says is as objective as possible and cannot be biased to any one side, otherwise, it may cause dissatisfaction from other people...
Well... there were a lot of people in the reception room at this time.
This usually large and empty room now rarely felt crowded.
In addition to Zhou Qi's parents and sister, there were all kinds of leaders, parents, teachers, and students in the room. They were sitting or standing. Everyone had their own purposes and demands, and everyone had different expressions on their faces. Some of their expressions were dignified, some were impatient, some were anxious, some were worried... Anyway, they were all pretty ugly.
This filled the entire room with an atmosphere of depression and tension.
At this time, after hearing Guan Xiao's words, Zhou's father nodded and said in a deep voice: "Teacher Guan, thank you for your explanation. The child has indeed caused trouble for you and the school..."
The director of the female department sitting next to him followed the words and said: "It will certainly cause trouble. Now the problem is how to solve it. Zhou Qi's mistake is too serious now. We can't have such a student..."
Mother Zhou, who had a gentle temperament, was not happy when she heard this, and her soft voice revealed a bit of toughness: "The matter hasn't been clarified yet, how can I say no?"
Seeing this, Guan Xiao forced a smile and waved his hand: "Ms. Li, don't worry... Director, this, Zhou Qi is actually a very honest child. Usually he never makes me worry. This time, it is indeed the first time... "
The female director frowned and said nothing.
"...That's it." Zhou's father nodded thoughtfully. Then, he looked at his wife beside him, and then at his daughter who was standing next to him with a worried face. After looking away, he continued: "We are all sensible people. When we do something wrong, we admit it and are willing to bear the consequences, because it is not only the child's fault, but our parents are also responsible...but..."
Father Zhou changed the topic and his eyes became sharper:
"However, as parents, we have to know the cause and consequences of such a big thing happening to our children. Teacher Guan Xiao, since you said that Zhou Qi is usually honest and obedient, then I think it is impossible for him to do such a crazy thing for no reason. Right? And now that we can't contact him, we can't characterize the matter in a vague way..."
When he was talking about the first half of the story, the expressions of the school leaders and parents around him began to soften, but as he spoke, things became more and more wrong, and everyone's expressions became tense again.
Guan Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly took over the words: "Mr. Zhou, this, this, it's true, there must be a reason for this. I know you may not believe that Zhou Qi will..."
"Everything happens for a reason!" A man directly interrupted Guan Xiao and said with a cold snort. Everyone looked around and saw that it was Lin Rui's family of three sitting on another sofa. It was his father who spoke.
Father Lin's face was full of anger. He stood up and said loudly: "There is a reason for everything, can he make all his mistakes a big deal? Can he downplay the harm suffered by others? Are you still sensible? This matter has been clearly laid out, but there are still causes and consequences? I think you still want to excuse your son, right?"
"Mr. Lin, don't, don't be anxious..." Guan Xiao broke into a cold sweat, his heart was in his throat, all he could think about was, it's over, it's over, this moment has come, and he just didn't say the right thing. , there’s going to be a quarrel...
Bastard Zhou Qi, he did such a bunch of shit, and now he’s leaving it all to me...
Thank you for taking such good care of you before!
Wait for you to come back and see how I deal with you!
Guan Xiao felt wronged and angry, but he didn't dare to show it. He could only endure his nervousness and said: "Mr. Lin, calm down first. After all, what Zhou Qi's father said was right..."
Father Lin was aggressive: "You mean, what I said is wrong, right?"
Guan Xiao, a young man who had just graduated from college a few years ago, had never experienced such a scene. When asked like this, he couldn't speak clearly: "I, I didn't mean that..."
Fortunately, at this time, another school leader, the dean of the department, a gentle man with eyes in his thirties, also spoke: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, although classmate Lin Rui was injured, But after all, this is a conflict among young people. There is no need to embarrass other teachers, right? Why not let classmate Lin Rui explain what's going on first?"
"..." Father Lin looked at him deeply, but in the end he didn't say anything. He turned to look at Lin Rui and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Lin Rui was sitting on the sofa at the moment. He seemed fine, but his face looked pale and a little weak. When he saw everyone's eyes falling on him, he stood up with a calm face and said, "Actually, Zhou Qi and I There have been conflicts since entering school because of a girl..."
He looked towards the corner of the room, where a long-haired girl wearing a plain white dress stood.
It's Li Qing, she's here too.
Lin Rui actually never took his eyes off her because she was so beautiful.
He swallowed and said, "Her name is Li Qing."
"??" Li Qing was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked over in surprise.
She stayed in the corner just to make herself less conspicuous, because she had been looking at her phone to send messages and so on, but was called out by Lin Rui.
Lin Rui stared at her and continued: "That girl has a very good relationship with Zhou Qi. I didn't know about it when school started, so I wanted to pursue her, but Zhou Qi would stand in front of me every time and tell me to stay away from that girl. , so I was ready to give up, I thought they were together... But, I later learned that they were not in a relationship at all, they were just good friends!"
At this time, many people also noticed that Li Qing was looking at him.
Father Lin also noticed. He glanced at Li Qing, frowned, and asked, "What next?"
Lin Rui turned to look at the others: "Then, some time ago, Zhou Qi confessed to the girl. Witnessed by many people, I saw with my own eyes that the girl clearly rejected Zhou Qi. !
So, I pursued her again...
However, just today, when I chased Li Qing to the teaching building, Zhou Qi happened to come out. When he saw me, without saying a word, he came up and beat me up, and then took my car keys. ,Ran……
These words are true, as everyone present at the time can testify! And now I want to know, are these things happening for a reason? "
"..."
"..."
Everyone else present was silent for a while and began to whisper to each other.
In his words, he seemed to agree with what Lin Rui said.
Father Zhou's face didn't look very good. Mother Zhou next to him moved her body, as if she was about to say something.
But Father Zhou stopped her.
At this time, sitting next to Lin Rui's father, Lin Rui's mother, who was dressed in jewels, took over the words. She looked at the three members of the Zhou family and said angrily:
"Then what else is there to say? Everything your son is doing now is no small matter. He intentionally hurts people, robs others of their finances, and kidnaps teachers... Even if we don't pursue the case, he will still be severely punished. There is even criminal liability. I really don’t know what else you can be so stubborn about..."
"Everyone, can you calm down..." Seeing the scene, Guan Xiao couldn't hold it anymore. He bit the bullet and said, "Lin Rui's parents, it's understandable that you are anxious, but we also really need some substance. Proof, but now, the police have not given any information, and everything is still unconfirmed..."
Father Lin raised his hand and frowned: "What's wrong with you as a teacher? Are you biased towards that Zhou Qi? Don't worry about his kidnapping. It's always true that he beat my son." Right? Is the robbery of the car true? Is this clear?"
Having said this, he looked directly at Zhou Qi's father and said in a cold voice: "Okay, stop whining, I will just say this, you and your family, please apologize to my son and provide corresponding compensation. Otherwise, go to court!”
