Chapter 221 Reunion [4400]
Jiang Hong slowly closed his eyes.
For a while, it was difficult to open it again.
The memories flowing out of the system slowly merged into his mind, making him feel a little familiar, and making him feel as if everything was happening right in front of his eyes.
So real, so real.
For a moment, Jiang Hong felt very astonished.
Because, he saw himself in the boundless darkness and the light revealed in a little bit.
My childhood self.
An age where you don't need to vote on the bus or buy a ticket to go to the amusement park.
Thin and small.
Short, black and not slippery.
In a small airtight house, dark and airtight.
There is only a large closed iron door, and a narrow ventilation window formed by several iron bars on the other side.
Outside the window, a few slanting branches got into the iron grille, and in the faint sunlight, an orange-yellow and slightly greenish orange was reflected on the branch.
In the small room, curled up like him, there were countless children with ragged clothes.
The expressions on the face are either numbness, fear, worry, hunger, or despair.A room full of young children seem to be able to see all kinds of things in the world.
They were trembling, but they dared not speak out.
Jiang Hong, who was a child, was a heretic among them.
He gently hugged a little girl beside him who looked thinner than him. Although his face was full of fear and worry, he was more firm and encouraging, and gently patted the little girl on the shoulder.
Gently talked to her over and over again.
"Don't be afraid, with me, I will protect you."
"Don't be afraid, I have..."
"Do not be afraid……"
The little girl is short and small, if she doesn't look like she has been hungry for a long time and has a sallow and thin complexion, she should be very cute.
From the details such as eyebrows and eyes, it can be seen that the little girl is very similar to the childhood Jiang Hong.
Throughout the empty, dark room, only his low voice echoed.
Jiang Hong viewed this memory from the perspective of a bystander, but, he felt an indescribable sense of familiarity. During the brief period of confusion, he suddenly realized... The reason why he felt familiar was because, this This memory belongs to him.
Last time, Yuan Xi also told him that because everyone has self-protection in their hearts, they will instinctively hide some more psychologically harmful memories, so that people can't recall them at all.
It can only be stimulated by certain times, by certain things.
If it weren't for the system's reward for this memory, he might not be able to remember it in his life, and he still has such a life.
Jiang Hong's consciousness moved a little closer, and he stayed a few more times on the little girl's body. The more he looked at it, the more he felt very familiar. It wasn't because he thought the girl looked like him. It was a kind of familiarity that came from a bridge of blood.
Yes, the familiarity of the blood bridge!
The blood relationship between them made Jiang Hong feel that unique sense of familiarity. This should be his twin sister whom he had known before. The kindness and familiarity are self-evident.
Before that, he had also felt this familiarity in another person.
He frowned, feeling that this was an unwarranted guess and unrealistic.
How is it possible...how, possible?
It turns out that this sense of familiarity is not the inner connection of some so-called mentally ill patients, but blood relationship...
Jiang Hong was stunned, a little in disbelief.
While his mind was a little numb, this memory was still going on.
The little girl said in a low voice, "Brother, I, I'm so hungry..."
Jiang Hong, who was a child, took a deep breath, raised his head and searched the room vigorously, and then saw the tree branch passing through the iron grille window, and saw the orange under the sunlight.
He softly comforted the little girl, then stood up immediately, ran to the ventilation window, paddled his feet, jumped, and after a lot of effort, he finally grabbed the orange and the branch, scratching his hand because of it A few small bloody holes were broken.
Red dazzling.
He held the orange tightly and handed it to the little girl, "Eat it quickly, this is the only one...it may be a little sour."
The little girl nodded, took the orange, got into Jiang Hong's arms again, and ate the bloody orange with the skin in one gulp, her sour brows frowned, her mouth full of sourness.
But she thought it was very sweet, so after eating half of it, she handed the other half to Jiang Hong.
"Brother, you eat too!"
Jiang Hong shook his head and told the little girl to eat them all.
The little girl swallowed the saliva she secreted crazily due to sourness, and raised her head with a wrinkled face, "Brother, we, will we always be together in the future?"
"Yes, I will definitely..." Although Jiang Hong was trembling in fear, he still answered firmly.
The memory fades a little bit.
Only that little girl's faint smile penetrated into the depths of Jiang Hong's soul, making it impossible for him to forget no matter what...
He had seen this smile before.
He had felt that familiarity before.
The appearance of that little girl when she grew up came to his mind little by little, and condensed into a girl's smiling face.
Although there was a very rational voice in his heart saying to him, "Impossible, impossible to have such a coincidence..."
But Jiang Hong remembered for no reason that on the night before she joined VX, Jiang Hong got the attribute point of "permanent cohesion +1" through the system.
In this world, there are not so many coincidences. It is the system that has built a vital bridge for them. An incredible way, drawn together.
Jiang Hong started the car on fire, and while driving the car quickly out of the community, he sent Xu Wan a message in a panic that he was going home late.
He slammed on the gas pedal like crazy, almost into the gas tank.
In the neon flickering and dark streets, Jiang Hong's car was driving desperately on the streets.
Running a red light, speeding, he doesn't care about them all, he has forgotten them all, and now he has only one thought in his mind.
Hurry up, hurry up!
Anfeng Street, No. 24.
In front of the door.
Amidst the violent wheel friction sound...
Before Jiang Hong's car stopped, he opened the door suddenly and jumped out of the car.
On the other side, Sun Tao and Wang Peng, who were squatting at the gate of No. 25, smoking and talking, looked strangely at the car that hurriedly arrived in the dark.
Wang Peng stubbed out a cigarette and spat, "Damn it? This car drives wild enough!"
Sun Tao raised his head subconsciously, glanced at the license plate number, recognized at a glance that this was Jiang Hong's car, and involuntarily widened his eyes!
The person who got out of the car was Jiang Hong?With such a cautious personality, can he drive the car so well?
And... where is he going?He doesn't seem to be here to oversee work at No. 25!How did he run to the 24th?what happened?
"Old, old Jiang! You, what's wrong with you? What are you doing?"
Sun Tao jumped up directly from the ground, turned his head to greet Wang Peng, "Go and call someone..."
He thought about it, what happened to Lao Jiang not coming to the 25th, but to the 24th? He also rented No. 24?What does he want?
A thought flashed through him, and he immediately realized that this was not an easy matter, and he had to handle it carefully, and before the situation was confirmed, the city should not be full of storms and everyone would know about it.
"Uh, no!...Don't call anyone, just go in and stay there, and don't let anyone out until I open the door! You didn't see anything just now, it's not that Lao Jiang, Lao Jiang can't do such a wild thing! "
"Go back and stop talking nonsense!"
He was afraid that there was something else going on, so he told Wang Peng to enter the house quickly, while he himself ran towards Jiang Hong.
Knowing Sun Tao, Wang Peng nodded quickly, "Don't worry, I won't say anything unless you tell me! I'll give you the cigarettes! I think it should be a waste of time!"
Throwing the cigarette case over, he glanced in the direction of the deserted street on the other side, and hurried into the house.
Jiang Hong could no longer hear Sun Tao's greeting.
There is nothing in his head now, it is empty, his expression is also numb, and he doesn't know what expression to use to express his current mood.
It was as if it had just been struck by lightning.
Boom boom boom!
Jiang Hong stretched out his hand and almost smashed it with his fist, directly hitting the door panel of No. 24!
He can no longer control the strength in his hand!
He originally thought that he was a very calm person, a person who would never lose his mind completely, but now he knew that this characteristic required two prerequisites.
One is Xu Wan, and the other is... family members.
In front of his family, he can never be truly rational and calm.
Yes, family.
bang bang bang...
bang bang bang...
As if trying to use up all his strength to smash the door, Jiang Hong smashed the door desperately, without stopping for a moment. Somehow, a blood was cut on his hand and dripped down his entire arm, but he didn't realize it.
Sun Tao was frightened by his dazed look. He originally wanted to say, "Lao Jiang! Are you fucking crazy? What are you doing smashing on people's doors in the middle of the night! What do you want!"
But running to the front, looking at Jiang Hong's expression of wanting to cry, greatly shocked and impacted, Sun Tao was dumbfounded, he had never seen Jiang Hong like this before, and was a little panicked for a while.
He grabbed Jiang Hong's bloody hand, "Old Jiang! How are you? Are you okay? This is bleeding! What's going on! Don't worry!"
Jiang Hong didn't realize it, one hand was controlled by Sun Tao, Jiang Hong continued to slam the door with the other hand.
at last……
click...
The sound of someone pulling open the armrest came from inside the door, and Jiang Hong just woke up from the dream, and took two steps back by the door.
Da da da……
Drops of blood dripped down the finger joints to the ground, just like the sound of Jiang Hong's heartbeat at the moment.
Sun Tao was already in a daze, clutching one of Jiang Hong's arms, but couldn't pull it away without saying anything. Sun Tao could only follow Jiang Hong's movements and silently backed away two or three steps.
I want to clarify the situation first.
A light pierces the night—
Yuan Xi was wearing an orange knitted sweater and had no time to put on a down jacket. Standing in the place where the lights and shadows gathered, she looked strangely at the duo of Jiang Hong, who was in a daze outside the door, and Sun Tao, who looked bewildered.
The expression, which has always been well controlled, seems a little at a loss at this moment.
Yuan Xi's beautiful brows frowned. At the beginning, she was too scared to open the door when she heard such crazy knocking on the door, but she saw a car parked outside the door through the window, vaguely resembling her boss Jiang Hong's car.
She thought that something happened to Jiang Hong's family, or something happened to the business development plan, and she was anxious to find her, so she ran downstairs in a hurry.
I didn't expect to see this scene.
When Sun Tao saw Yuan Xi for the first time, he almost stopped breathing, "What a beautiful girl? How did Lao Jiang know that she lives here? Wait, Lao Jiang rented No. 24! No. 25 will not be rented by him." Lao Jiang also rented the mother’s house, right? Damn it!! What’s going on? Lao Jiang returned his mother’s golden house to Zangjiao?”
"Impossible! Lao Jiang is definitely not the type to do such a thing! He has loved Xu Wan for a whole ten years! How could he do such a thing now when Xu Wan is pregnant with a child?"
He involuntarily looked at Yuan Xi carefully, but the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this beautiful girl had a feeling of deja vu.
The aura and taste between the eyebrows and eyes, if you change it to a man, then no matter how you look at it, it will look familiar!
This paralyzed face...why does it seem to be carved out of the same mold as Lao Jiang?
Jiang Hong subconsciously wanted to take two steps forward, his whole body was numb, and his steps were a little staggering, but Sun Tao grabbed him immediately, and said in a low voice: "Old Jiang, you, don't do stupid things! Think about it tactfully." The child in Wan's stomach now! You, you can't go any closer!"
"Going further in, really, really can't tell! Lao Jiang! You stop here! I'll just pretend I didn't see anything today, and I'll keep it a secret for you! I swear!"
Jiang Hong snapped away Sun Tao's grip on his arm, and slowly took two steps forward.
Sun Tao gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, what the hell!It can't be true, can it?There are really people outside Lao Jiang! ?His scalp was numb and he couldn't believe what he said.
He could only stare at Jiang Hong's back, feeling Jiang Hong's slightly crazy and lost soul, he silently took two steps back.
Jiang Hong took a deep breath and looked at this familiar face. He obviously had a lot to say and a lot of questions, but he couldn't say a word when it came to his mouth.
Yuan Xi couldn't figure out why the boss had such an expression and this situation. She could only analyze the details from the perspective of a psychologist.
Annoyance, remorse, pain, discomfort, anxiety, hope, fear, worry... The emotional levels are really too complicated. What exactly has he experienced?Did he come to me because all kinds of emotions suddenly broke out and he wanted me to counsel him?
Yuan Xi was still thinking that Jiang Hong told her that she should try not to reveal any relationship between the two of them when other people saw it, but looking at Jiang Hong like this, she was indeed a little uncomfortable. Bear the heart to pretend not to see.
"Do you have any psychological problems, do you need to consult me?" She quickly calmed down, considered the possible situation, and glanced at Sun Tao, "Hello, I am a psychiatrist that Jiang Hong recently sought. They are sisters with Mr. Jiang Hong's younger sister, Jiang Lin."
She gave Sun Tao a look, roughly meaning, "Mr. Jiang Hong's psychological condition is extremely unstable now, and I need psychological treatment."
Psychologist?Sun Tao suddenly realized.
Yuan Xi's calmness and composure are really convincing.It's not at all like the expression that Sun Tao imagined at the beginning, when he was found out about his affair.
So he gave Jiang Hong a strange look, and he believed it.
During Jiang Hong's brief meditation, Yuan Xi found a reason to fool Sun Tao, and then looked at Jiang Hong with deep eyes.
Jiang Hong opened his mouth in despair, wanting to say something, but he didn't say it after a long time.
The air was silent for a while.
Just then.
Jiang Hong took a sharp breath of air-conditioning, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Don't be afraid, with me, I will protect you."
"I said I would protect you, sister, sister, sister..." He repeated the title jerky.
The expression on Sun Tao's face gradually became strange.
On the other hand, Yuan Xi seemed to have been cast a body-holding technique, her face was composed and calm, a little bit stiff and petrified.
She frowned slowly, staring straight at Jiang Hong as if she was identifying something.
"You... who are you?"
The voice that I had heard and forgotten countless times in my dreams seemed to be mixed with the hoarse voice in front of me, slowly merging into one.
I don't know how many times I have written this chapter.
Basically what I wrote can satisfy me.
There are two more chapters in this volume.
It is about to enter the final volume of this book [Ten Years]
good night.
