Chapter 388: No Peace Ever

Jiaqi's parents never asked me about my age, but just told me about Jiaqi's shortcomings and asked me to be more tolerant.

I kept smiling and agreed, feeling like I was floating in the air.

I thought it would be an embarrassing party for me, but the embarrassed person became Jiaqi inexplicably, which made me laugh out loud.

My parents were talking about Jiaqi's shortcomings, and my sister was complaining about Jiaqi's embarrassing things. For the first time, I saw an embarrassed expression on Jiaqi's face.

I happily took a few photos and posted them to my Moments, which had not been updated for three years.

Today is the beginning of my new life.

"Chenze, Jay Chou will come to Chengdu in five days. I couldn't go to Richie Jen's concert last time with you. Do you want to go this time?" Jiaqi asked.

"Well, if there is time, of course."

"Dinglingling——"

Jiaqi's phone rang, and the note was the Public Security Bureau of Qingyang District.

"Hello?" Jiaqi sat down beside me with a smile on his face, picked up the phone and answered it, "Yes, I'm Lawyer Sun, what's up?"

A muffled voice came from the other end of the phone. Although I was very close to Jiaqi, I couldn't hear it clearly.

"What...? Okay, I know, I'll go to you tomorrow morning, and try to combine these two cases together." Jiaqi's smile slowly sank, "Yes, I understand. Although I feel sorry for the girl, I can also punish the bad guys thoroughly."

Jiaqi hung up the phone with a melancholy expression. After a few seconds, he turned his head and winked at me.

He and I went to the balcony and looked at him in confusion.

"Chenze, I don't know if it's good news, but because it's related to you, I have to tell you." Jiaqi said to me with a smile.

"What?"

"The police investigation found that a female corpse was buried in the backyard of the horse butcher. Comparison found that it was a female college student who disappeared many years ago."

"Female college... student..." Hearing these four words, my voice trembled slightly.

There are very few female college students in our village.

"Yes." Jiaqi took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, "Alas... I don't know if it's good news, anyway, it's a foregone conclusion that the butcher Ma will be sentenced to death. Tomorrow I'll go to the police to check the details. It's said that she's been buried in his backyard for more than ten years..."

I felt dizzy.

"Jiaqi... what's the name of that female, female college student?" I asked.

"I seemed to have heard the name just now, but I didn't remember it. I heard that she went to teach." Xiao Sun looked at me with some confusion, "What's wrong? Chenze, do you know that girl?"

A female college student who teaches... how could I not know her?

She is the most important light in my life.

Under the illumination of this light, I successfully left the village and spent the rest of my life running towards a better life.

I never thought that the bright light that illuminated my way forward would stay there forever.

For so many years... she was buried in the backyard of the butcher Ma...

How scared should she be?

How desperate?

My body gradually began to tremble.

In the small house of the butcher Ma, I saw scratches all over the wall.

Those scratches were obviously old.

Is that so?

Teacher Ning Waner, have you ever been as desperate as me in a certain time and space?

No... you are more desperate than me.

Because you know that there is no one in this world who can save you... You also know that you can never escape from this village.

You can only slowly accept your own death, and you can only stay there forever.

My beacon, the beacon of my life, a woman who gave me all my hope, died in that small room in despair like a pig one day more than ten years ago.

"Jia Qi... I... I feel very bad..." My eyes were red and swollen, and I felt that the whole sky had collapsed, "I may lose my composure, I want to go home first..."

"Chen Ze... If you have something to say, you can tell me." Xiao Sun stared into my eyes and said, "I can solve all the problems for you."

Solve...?

The sad thing is... this matter no longer needs to be solved.

Teacher Ning Wan'er is dead, and now Ma the butcher has to pay for his life. Isn't this matter resolved from all aspects?

But why am I still so desperate?

"Ding——"

My phone, which hadn't been ringing for a long time, suddenly received a WeChat message.

It was a message from Chengcai.

"Hey? Are you dating?"

It was probably because of my circle of friends. Chengcai, who hadn't contacted me for 800 years, actually took the initiative to talk to me.

But it doesn't matter. These people can't affect me anymore. I will block all their contact information now.

I sighed and swiped the screen to the left. When I was about to delete the conversation, I received another message.

I hesitated for a moment, but still opened it to take a look.

"Does your boyfriend know what you look like?"

Next was a screenshot of the chat record between Chengcai and Ma the butcher.

Ma the butcher: "A woman who has been trained by city people is so slutty. Let me show you."

Next were my photos.

Those photos that I thought were erased from the world now appeared one by one in front of me.

There were even a few videos at the end, trampling all my dignity underfoot.

I really can't seem to escape this village... I can't escape this cannibalistic village.

Can you please let me go?

Can you guys just pretend you've never seen me?

Can't you just treat me as if I'm dead? !

"Chenze, what's wrong with you?" Jiaqi asked in confusion, "Who sent you the message?"

"I..."

He was about to lean over, but I immediately locked my phone and put it in my pocket. I even bumped my elbow in panic, but I didn't feel any pain.

I was so scared. I didn't want Jiaqi to see me like this, even if everyone in the world could see it... I definitely couldn't let Jiaqi see it.

"Ah...?" Jiaqi saw me put away my phone in a panic, and she wasn't angry, but she looked a little embarrassed, "Sorry Chenze, I didn't mean to pry into your privacy..."

"Ah no... no..." I waved my hand in a panic.

Since we established a relationship, Xiao Sun would sit next to me every time he made a phone call. Perhaps he wanted to give me a sense of security, or perhaps he wanted to reassure me, and he would always do this inadvertently.

He never hid anything from me, but this time I put away my phone in a hurry, which was not fair to him.

"Jia Qi... It's not what you think... I..."

I didn't think about how to explain it at all. I just wanted to cry and curse the world.

But I couldn't cry.

If I cried, Jia Qi would worry.

It was obviously my own problem, but I insisted on involving others. This is not right.

So the best choice at this moment should be that I quietly return home and find a place where no one is crying, just like every day in the past ten years.

"I know... I know..." Jia Qi nodded seriously, "Chen Ze, it's okay, I don't mean to blame you, everyone has things they don't want others to know, when you want to tell me, I'll be waiting here."

That day, I felt that the whole world was spinning.

What should I do?

I don't remember how I left Jia Qi's house. When I came to my senses, I was standing in the living room at home looking at my mobile phone in a daze.

Cheng Cai called.

If I don't solve this matter, my life will never be peaceful.

I took out the recorder from the drawer, turned on the recording function of the mobile phone, pressed the hands-free button, and answered the call.
