Chapter 76 My Dad's Relics
As soon as I said these words, my hatred also surged out, and the overwhelming hatred filled my whole body.
The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!
At this moment, there was something in my eyes that I had never seen before, called ferocity. My body also showed something that had never been seen before, called hostility.
Wang Shiqi on the side was stunned when she saw that I had completely changed. She was afraid that I would be blinded by hatred, so she quickly advised me: "Chen Xiaotian, you can't do anything wrong. Let's not say that you can't fight them.
Even if you really take revenge, you will commit a capital crime because of it, and your father certainly doesn’t want anything to happen to you."
Wang Shiqi's tone was full of worry.
I replied perfunctorily: "I know." When I said this, my expression was still cold and fierce, and my eyes were full of hatred.
Wang Shiqi was not relieved after hearing what I said. She still felt that something was wrong with me, so she persuaded me again: "If you really want to avenge your father, you should collect evidence carefully and hand it over to me."
The police, let the law punish the murderer."
Wang Shiqi has always wanted to seek justice for my father through legal means. The murderer deserves to die, but that is also left to the law to punish him.
Of course Wang Shiqi and I had different thoughts. I knew very well that since the murderer dared to kill my dad in broad daylight, it proved that he had the means to solve legal problems. There was no way he would have to pay for my dad's life.
life.
However, I didn’t say much to Wang Shiqi. I continued to reply perfunctorily: “Yeah.”
My answer seemed normal, but Wang Shiqi always felt that something was wrong with me. My look and the smell on my body were a bit strange. Wang Shiqi said to me cautiously with a little uneasiness: "Chen Xiaotian, are you?
What kind of stimulation did you suffer? If it doesn’t work, let’s go to the hospital to check it out?”
I said without thinking: "I'm normal, I just thought about it."
As I said that, I stared at Wang Shiqi and said to her seriously: "My dad needs money for his funeral, can I borrow some money from you?"
After hearing this, Wang Shiqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. I could calmly think about arranging funeral arrangements for my father, which was good. Wang Shiqi did not hesitate and immediately replied to me: "That's no problem. I know the person. Cremation
I'll take care of everything for you, including the cemetery."
I said to Wang Shiqi: "Thank you."
Next, I started to deal with my dad’s funeral affairs. My dad’s body should have been sent to the funeral parlor, but our old city is considered half of the countryside, so there is not so much care. In addition, I have no relatives, so there is no need to do anything.
It was too formal, so I kept it simple and built a very simple mourning hall by myself, using bamboo poles and rags. Wang Shiqi knew that I wanted to spend more time with my dad at home, so she didn’t say anything and just helped me silently.
, she also specially bought me candles, paper, money and other necessary items.
After the mourning hall was completed, I moved my father's body to the mourning hall.
As soon as my father's body was removed, Wang Shiqi discovered that there was an iron box lying on the place where my father was lying. Immediately, Wang Shiqi asked me: "Chen Xiaotian, come and see, what is this?"
I walked over, picked up the iron box and took a look, and found that this was my dad's piggy bank. My dad would save some money in it every month. No matter how hard life was, my dad would not touch it.
The money, because the money stored in it, is my tuition every semester. My dad has supported me in studying for so many years, and the registration money was all saved by him through hard work. He had to pick up a lot of rags to save enough for my tuition.
Unexpectedly, my dad still protected this piggy bank until his death. He would rather die than have this thing burnt. At this moment, my heart stung again, and I suddenly felt that this piggy bank
The iron box weighs ten thousand kilograms, and I almost couldn't hold it.
After a pause, I raised my hand and wiped the dust off the iron box. Then I opened the lid and found more than a thousand dollars lying quietly inside the box. This was my dad's hard-earned money, and more importantly, his life.
Things to protect, I stared at the money for a long time before slowly taking them out.
As soon as the money was taken away, another thing appeared in the iron box. This was a pendant with a black rope and a black jade pendant tied in the middle of the rope. The jade pendant was dim in color and had a dragon totem engraved on it.
When Wang Shiqi saw that there was a jade pendant underneath the money, she couldn't help but ask: "Is this an heirloom of your family?"
I took out the black jade pendant from the iron box and explained to Wang Shiqi: "Actually, I am not my father's biological child, but he picked it up from the garbage dump. When he picked me up, there was a knot on my neck.
I hung this thing up. When I was in elementary school, my dad said that this thing seemed to be quite valuable. If I wore it, it would easily make bad people think wrong and lead to death, so my dad took it off.
Come down and keep it for me."
Wang Shiqi was stunned when she heard that I had picked it up. Her eyes were full of surprise. She was stunned for a while before she digested the fact. Then, she stared at the jade pendant in my hand and looked carefully, and then said: "
This jade pendant looks quite ordinary, how could it lead to death, your father is too careful."
I didn't have an in-depth chat with Wang Shiqi on this issue. I just put the money away and put the jade around my neck. In the past, I was timid and fearful, and I really didn't dare to wear anything valuable for fear of getting into trouble, but
Now, I don't care, this jade pendant will be with me from now on.
After putting on the jade pendant, I sat in front of the mourning hall and started to watch my father's funeral.
While I was burning the paper money, Wang Shiqi placed the breakfast she had packed next to me and said to me, "Eat something, you haven't eaten all day, don't be starved."
I replied: "I can't eat it."
Now, I will not seek life and death, nor will I continue to be decadent, but this does not mean that I will not be sad and painful. My father's death has caused the deepest harm to my soul. My father's bones are still cold. At this time,
I really have no appetite to eat.
Wang Shiqi also understood me. She did not force me to eat. She just asked with a little worry: "You have been staying here. What will happen if the murderer comes to deal with you again?"
I slowly replied: "No, my dad just died. If something happens to me again, there will obviously be problems with the case, so no matter who it is these days, no one will commit crimes." Only my dad.
If something happens to one person, the police can consider it an accident. If something happens to me immediately, the police will never be able to judge it as an accident, so the murderer will not take the risk to commit the crime at this juncture.
After hearing what I said, Wang Shiqi nodded slightly and said nothing more. Then, she stayed beside me and kept vigil with me.
The two of us were silent and breathless. This mourning hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. In other homes, when someone dies, there are many people mourning and it’s lively. But when someone dies in my home, it’s so deserted. It’s not like that at all.
Wang Shiqi felt desolate at the funeral ceremony. She couldn't help but ask me: "Doesn't your father have any other relatives?"
I said in a deep voice: "No, since I was a child, I have been living with my father. I don't have any relatives in my family."
Having said this, I remembered how hard it was for my father to pull me up. Scenes from the past, like movie clips, kept reappearing in my mind. I thought of many things, but in my memory, I
Dad is all about hard work and vicissitudes of life. He has really worked hard all his life. He has given everything for me. He is always busy and tired. He does not eat well or wear well, and he is frugal.
It's just for me, he's so good to me, why can't I be nicer to him? Why should I wait until I lose him now to regret it?
My heart was clenched again, and my tears couldn't help but flow down.
Wang Shiqi looked at me silently, and her heart ached. At this moment, she understood my pain more deeply. I have had no other relatives since I was a child, and I only lived with my dad. Now that my dad is dead, I have lost everything.
The world, this pain, is indeed unbearable.
In the endless grief, I kept vigil for my father for two days and two nights. Wang Shiqi stayed with me whenever she could, and also brought me meals on time, but I didn't eat a few mouthfuls in total because I really couldn't eat.
On the third day, my body was overloaded, I was exhausted, and I had a high fever. I really couldn't hold on anymore. I was afraid that I would fall ill and my dad would have no one to care about me, so I chose to stay here.
One day, I buried my dad.
The funeral was kept simple. I didn't inform anyone, not even Lin Chen. The only one who stayed with me was Wang Shiqi. All the expenses and matters were taken care of by Wang Shiqi. She helped me spend money and go out the back door.
With Long Service, everything is done in one step.
By the time my dad was buried, it was already evening. Wang Shiqi and I stood in front of my dad's grave and mourned silently for a long time. Seeing that it was getting dark, I said to Wang Shiqi: "It's getting late. You should go back first."
Thank you for your company these days, and thank you for your money. If there is a chance, I will return the money to you."
Wang Shiqi replied: "Don't talk to me about money. You know, I don't care about money."
I paused and then said: "Go back, you have missed class these two days, my dad's matter has been taken care of, you don't have to accompany me anymore." Wang Shiqi has helped me enough, I feel very happy
I'm grateful, I don't want to delay or injure her, so I can only stay away from her.
When Wang Shiqi heard what I said, her expression darkened. She frowned and asked me, "What are you going to do in the future?"
I said seriously: "Don't worry about this, just go to your class!"
Wang Shiqi stared at me for a few seconds, and then asked: "You don't really want to take revenge, do you?" Wang Shiqi was afraid that I would be stupid. She didn't ask for anything else, she just hoped that I would be safe and sound.
I said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't mess around. You can go back. I want to be alone." In order to dispel Wang Shiqi's concerns, I could only say this.
Wang Shiqi saw that I had gone so far as to talk, and she couldn't say anything else. She could only say: "Okay, if anything happens to you, remember to call me."
After speaking, she bowed deeply to my father's tombstone, then turned and left.
After Wang Shiqi left, I knelt down in front of my father's grave. I knelt here, staring at my father's tombstone, and remained silent for a long time.
It wasn't until the sky completely darkened that I opened my mouth and said solemnly: "Dad, don't worry, I will respect your last wish and live well. I hope you can rest in peace under the Nine Springs."
Speaking of this, my eyes suddenly changed and became extremely determined, and my voice became sonorous and powerful: "But, I will definitely avenge you. I swear here, no matter who kills you,
I will definitely use his life to pay homage to your soul!"
