A young man followed her across the intersection.She took a look at him, he was a common wanderer on the streets of this city, carrying a plastic bag, with a slightly stern expression.He has a dark square face, a gold necklace hanging around his neck, a short-sleeved shirt with horizontal stripes, black and red beach pants with vertical stripes, and a pair of crackling plastic slippers. It is obvious.She knew that she had outstanding looks, and it was very common for her to be followed by young men on the street, but this follower's eyes were special, and she was not used to it.There was no provocative erotic element in that gaze, nor was it a temptation between long-lost acquaintances, but a piercing blade-like light stabbing towards him with a bit of coolness.She wants to get rid of him as soon as possible.Walking past a dim sum shop, she smelled the smell of chicken soup coming out of the big wooden barrel at the door. She has always liked the chicken soup wontons in that shop.She sneaked in and ordered a bowl of wontons. Just as she sat down, she found that the man had also come in.He sat on a table opposite, motionless, squinting at her.look at her.He took out a green nylon rope from a plastic bag, put it on the table, squinted his eyes, and looked at her.She suddenly thought of the long-lost name Baorun, and felt terrified. She quickly got up and changed her position to face him.She turned her back to him and heard his voice, Fairy, let's go dance?Are you still dancing?

She jumped up, pulled up her suitcase and rushed out of the snack shop. He chased after him silently, and the nylon rope was hastily stuffed into the pocket of the beach pants, revealing a section of green rope, like a swinging snake.What are you running?If you don't dance with me, can you treat me to a bowl of wontons?You don't invite me, I invite you? She turned around and said, you have identified the wrong person, I don't know you. You don't know me, I know you.He said later, I don't think I should dance Xiaola or eat wontons, let's go for a walk together, okay?

Don't follow me, I'm in a bad mood.Follow me again and I'll yell! What are you shouting for?rape!rape!He imitated a female voice, and laughed to himself, can you call, you call again, I'll wait to hear, I'm in a good mood. I'm not trying to scare you, just walk a dozen steps forward and turn right, you will be at the police station, if you follow me again, we will go to the police station together. Okay, then go to the police station, you lead the way, I will follow, if I run away, I am not raised. She dragged the suitcase and walked in a hurry. The pavement had just been dug and was bumpy everywhere. A wheel fell off the bottom of the suitcase, and she couldn't drag it anymore. She picked up the suitcase and ran for a few meters. He sat down on the suitcase.What are you going to do?Isn't it released?It's just a few years in prison, and no one is dead or disabled. What's the big deal?Her appearance seemed to be playful, challenging, and a bit of a comforter. There was no loss in staying there for a few years, right?The outside world is not good, how difficult it is to mix.

Am I better on the inside than on the outside?He remained calm and nodded.Makes sense, I see.What else can I teach you?Today is a rare opportunity, let me know. Her high-heeled shoes were also against her, and the heels suddenly came loose. She took off her high-heeled shoes, and angrily tapped the heels against the ground, duk, duk.Why have I been so unlucky recently?Benedict.Benedict.Damn it, bloody bad luck!Look, the German suitcase is broken. I bought it at Frankfurt Airport for 200 Euros.The shoes are also good shoes, a real Italian brand, so broken.Seeing that he was indifferent and bored, she slowly put on her high heels, and said, let the past be the past, you deserve it, who told you to tie me up?

There was an odd smile on his face, somewhere between sarcasm and sadness.He shook his legs, crossed them, and it could be seen that such a conversation required a lot of patience and restraint from him.He stared at her face, and suddenly said, kidnapping is the fault of kidnapping, rape is the crime of rape, whoever kidnaps you will rape you, such a simple matter, you can't tell the difference? Don't blame me, I lost my soul at that moment.She stood up hoarsely, tried the heels of her high heels, and suddenly realized the harm of weakness, her voice became high-pitched, "If you don't tie me up, how can he do such a dirty thing?"You are not good people, you are all sinners!

Paul Run said, it makes sense.We have all sinned, I just don't understand why it is okay to rape you but not to tie you up?Is it convenient for you to say, how much benefit did you get from them back then? What good is that?What was the level of consumption at that time?It's just a small favor.She looked at him with honest eyes, hesitated for a while, then suddenly changed into a heart-to-heart tone, and said, anyway, it's all about old sesame seeds and rotten grains, and I'll tell you the truth, you were ugly before, even uglier than now, Ugly and stingy, Liu Sheng used to be so handsome, he spent a lot of money, danced well, handsome guys, girls like them in their hearts.

Baorun nodded, with a snort in his nostrils, he said, it makes sense, this time I made it clear, you like him and hate me, so you take me as his scapegoat? She almost confessed, noticed his gloomy eyes, and sighed cautiously, I know you hate me, I admit that you are a little bit wronged, don't you feel wronged?You came to me for revenge, and I wanted revenge, but I didn't know who to turn to. You admit that I am a little wronged?Then you tell me, how can I take revenge? Apologize in person?She inquired and said, I'm a little sorry for you, I said I'm sorry, I'm sorry, okay?

Say sorry and send me?You can't coax a fool with this attitude. Then tell me clearly, what exactly do you want?A guarded expression flashed across her face, her eyes were full of guilt, irritability, grievance, savagery, and extraordinary courage, a tear welled up in her eye socket, she wiped her eyes, and suddenly shouted, let me tell you something A hundred sorry, okay, sorry, sorry, sorry, okay? Pedestrians on the opposite street stopped and looked towards them.Bao Run folded his arms, admiring her hysterical performance coldly, and when she was quiet, he shook his head, there is something wrong with your attitude.Saying sorry is worthless, shouting sorry is even more useless, and shouting ten thousand times is useless.I have been in it for ten years, and you have to pay for ten years.

lose money?Didn't you say it earlier?She quickly opened the wallet and counted the money in it, don't cheat, I'm not a rich woman, one thousand two, one thousand three, okay?I'll save a little for myself, I only have one thousand and five, I'll give you one thousand and three, right? Compensation is not necessarily money, I don't want you to lose money.Baorun pressed her hand and said seriously, you will pay for what I lose.Lose time first, ten years, and freedom, you still have to pay me ten years of freedom. She was stunned, staring at his face with wide eyes, how can I lose time?How to pay for freedom?Tell me clearly, what exactly are you going to pay for?

I didn't think about it either, we have to discuss it.Baorun said, shall we find a place to sit down?How about we go to another movie?Don't worry, we have plenty of time, we can discuss things slowly, and we can always come to a result. Who will go to the movies with you?Who consults with you?This lady will not accompany you!She blushed, pointed at Baorun's nose and said, Do you think I'm afraid of you?Kill or cut whatever you want, I'll wait! She wanted to run, but she couldn't. Bao Run's foot stepped on the suitcase.Baorun turned his mouth to the street, you can shout, there are so many people listening, they will come to help you, you can call robbery, rape, or murder, I will accompany you.

She looked at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, but she couldn't cry after all, and tears hung on her cheeks like pearls.An old man passed by them, thinking that they were a quarreling couple, he tried to persuade them, if there is anything the young couple should do, don't be impulsive, go home and discuss it carefully.She wiped her eyes and grabbed the old man, who was impulsive?Who is the young couple with him?You just married him!The old man turned around and left, saying angrily, why did the young man and the old man become young couples?Today's young people don't know what's good and what's wrong, so count me as a dog and a mouse for meddling in their own business. Bao Run pulled out the nylon rope from his pocket, put one end of the rope on his wrist, and wrapped it around a few times, that hand was soon covered by a green five-pointed star, how about it?He showed her the knot in his hand, isn't it beautiful? It is still his way of showing off and demonstrating.rope.dog leash.She felt her scalp go numb, and looked down at his slippers and his bare feet.The plastic slippers were cheap, his toes had black mud between them, his toenails were gray and cracked, and the feet and shoes together betrayed the impoverished existence of their owner.Not far away, someone was laying underground pipelines, and a shovel was leaning against the wall.She was heartbroken, and ran over to snatch the shovel. Baorun chased after her and hit the muzzle of the gun. She was holding the shovel, like a female soldier holding a submachine gun. Think I'm afraid of you?Who have I not seen?What age is it, you still use ropes to scare people?Don't make me die laughing!She used a shovel to shovel the soles of Baorun's slippers, and said while shoveling, there are so many unjust, false and wrongly decided cases in society, and you are not alone in the wrong lawsuit, and someone else died unjustly in it!What time to pay, what freedom to pay?People like you are wasting your time everywhere, what's the difference between inside and outside? The shovel touched Bao Run's feet.While Baorun dodged, she picked up her suitcase and ran towards a red taxi on the street.After all, in broad daylight, Baorun was apprehensive, chased after a few steps, and gave up.She heard him yelling from behind, run, run, one day counts as one year, I will remember it for you, you will regret it!She crashed into the taxi with the suitcase.The driver poked his head out of the car window and looked at Baorun curiously. Who is that man behind?She said to the driver, rapist!Hurry up, drive quickly, circle around twice, and drive to the Workers' Cultural Palace!The taxi started, and she caught a glimpse of Borun standing on the sidewalk through the window, bending over the wound on his foot.The driver looked back at her with strange eyes, what happened to the rapist?Who did you rape?She felt that it was necessary to make a correction, and said to the driver, I was just joking, he is not a rapist, he is a lunatic who escaped from Jingting Hospital!
