It was late at night, and the piercing sirens broke the tranquility of the night. Police cars roared away from the apartment where Tian Cao's family lived. Following the police cars was Chen Fan's Bentley with a series of 6 license plates, driving the car.
It was Huangfu Hongzhu, Chen Fan was not in the car.
Perhaps because there was too much noise, many residents opened their windows, stuck their heads out the window, and looked at the departing police car, all curious about what happened.
What happened?
When Tian Cao killed Xue Hu before, Xue Hu's wailing sound attracted the attention of his neighbors. As a result, one of Tian Cao's neighbors saw Xue Hu lying covered in blood at the door of Tian Cao's house and called the police...
Chen Fan did not stop this.
The police arrived at the scene quickly, but... they did not take Tian Cao away - because before the police arrived, Chen Fan called Tang Guoshan, the head of the Donghai Police and the head of the Donghai Armed Police Corps.
In the apartment, Tian Cao, who committed a murder for the first time, cleaned up the blood stains as Chen Fan said, and then sat on the sofa in the living room with a calm face, as if he was not afraid at all.
Tian Fang's performance was completely opposite to Tian Cao's. Her face was pale and worried, and she hesitated to speak several times.
Seeing this scene, Chen Fan knew that Tian Fang was afraid that Tian Cao would be punished by law for killing someone, so he comforted him: "Aunt Tian, don't worry, Xiao Cao will be fine."
Hearing what Chen Fan said, Tian Fang calmed down a bit. Although she was just an ordinary citizen, she also knew that in this so-called society ruled by law, many people were above the law. The former Xue Hu
Yes, and Chen Fan can do it at any time as long as he is willing.
While calm, Tian Fang's expression became complicated.
In a sense, letting Tian Cao escape the sanction of the law through Chen Fan is what she longs for in her heart, but at the same time, this approach makes her kind-hearted conscience uneasy.
This was one of the reasons why she wanted to let Xue Hu go before.
"Aunt Tian, I know that deep down in your heart you are actually very resistant to this kind of violation of the law." Seeing the complicated expression on Aunt Tian's face, Chen Fan guessed Tian Fang's thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said: "I
I personally don't agree with this method. But... think about it, Xue Hu himself is a person who ignores the law. In the past few years, he has done too many things that are harmful to nature. If the law is used,
To punish him, even if he dies a hundred times, it won’t be enough. People like him take trampling on the law as a daily routine, and we are just treating him in the same way as he does!"
"Um."
After hearing Chen Fan's explanation, Tian Fang sighed softly.
She also knew that what Chen Fan said was true.
The most direct example is that if Xue Hu had not raped her because of his extraordinary status, he would have been punished by the law long ago, and he would not have been at large until he died in the hands of Chen Fan.
After seeing this, Tian Fang no longer thought about this matter, but turned his attention to Tian Cao, feeling as if Tian Cao would be affected by this incident.
Not only Tian Fang is worried, Chen Fan is also worried.
Because... Tian Cao behaved so calmly from beginning to end. His calmness was completely beyond Chen Fan's expectations!
Chen Fan, who was stained with countless blood, knew very well that after an ordinary person kills someone, his first reaction is panic, then fear, and even vomiting.
People like Tiancao are really outliers.
"Aunt Tian, it's getting late. You go upstairs and rest for a while. I'll go for a walk with Xiaocao and get some fresh air." Chen Fan thought for a while and said.
"good."
After hearing Chen Fan's words, Aunt Tian thought for a while and agreed. She knew that Chen Fan minimized the impact of this incident on Tian Cao by getting alone with Tian Cao.
Seeing that Tian Fang agreed, Chen Fan stood up and walked to Tian Cao, stretched out his hand and said: "Xiao Cao, let's go, I will go for a walk with you."
"Um."
Tian Cao nodded slightly to Chen Fan, his expression still calm.
Then... Tian Cao held Chen Fan's hand, allowing Chen Fan to pull her up easily, and then followed Chen Fan out of the house.
The blood stains in the corridor of the apartment have long been cleaned away, but... the pungent smell of blood is still lingering in the air.
Smelling the strong smell of blood, Chen Fan had no reaction, but Tian Cao's body twitched slightly, and his face turned slightly pale.
When Chen Fan saw this, he knew that the smell of blood in the air had caused Tian Cao's stomach discomfort, and at the same time reminded Tian Cao of what happened just now, so he squeezed Tian Cao's weak and boneless hand tightly.
Feeling the power coming from Chen Fan's hand, Tian Cao's expression improved a little and his body no longer trembled.
One minute later.
Chen Fan took Tian Cao to the elevator and came downstairs.
The weather in the East China Sea in early August was still very hot. Even at night, the temperature was ridiculously high. The evening wind blew through, and there was a slight heat wave in the air.
Perhaps it was too late, or perhaps it was because a large number of police officers had arrived before. It was difficult to see people in the community and it was quiet.
Under the cover of night, Chen Fan held Tian Cao's hand and walked on the road, both parties remaining silent.
Soon, the two of them walked out of the community and walked along the street.
Compared with the quiet community, the streets are still very lively. Vehicles and pedestrians can be seen everywhere. Many couples cuddle up to each other and walk together. There are also many young people singing loudly as they walk, as if they are using this method.
This way they vent their suppressed emotions and seem to be enjoying their youthful spirit.
"Shh~"
As he walked, Chen Fan suddenly saw several fashionably dressed young people turning their attention to Tian Cao. One of them even whistled loudly, as if he was attracting Tian Cao's attention in this way.
attention.
Tian Cao was indifferent and let Chen Fan hold her hand. She walked with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart, completely ignoring the young men.
Chen Fan ignored the young men and was thinking about how to talk to Tian Cao.
Although he felt that Tian Cao's psychological quality was far better than that of his peers, but... after all, it was Tian Cao's first time to kill someone, and the person he killed was Xue Hu, who was related to her by blood. If he said that he was not affected at all, Chen Fan would definitely
Won't believe it.
"Haha, people don't like you."
Seeing that the two were indifferent, several young people began to laugh at the young man who whistled.
Being laughed at by his companions, the young man who was whistling felt very embarrassed. He couldn't help but walked over to this side. As he walked, he smiled and teased: "Sister, you said you look so pretty, why?"
Being with such a man is like a flower stuck in cow dung."
"Haha, that's right!"
For a moment, other young people laughed and agreed, and collectively moved towards Chen Fan and Tian Cao.
"Sister, let's get rid of that man. Let's choose among our brothers. How many of our brothers..." The young man who was whistling before was walking at the front. Seeing that the two of them were not talking, he said in an aggressive manner.
"roll."
Before he could say the next words, Chen Fan raised his head, glanced at them, and gently uttered the word "get out".
A simple word "go away" directly forced the young man to say nothing. Chen Fan's cold eyes like a knife made several young people's expressions change. They did not dare to look at Chen Fan and did not say anything.
It felt like I had fallen into an ice cellar, and I felt cold from head to toe.
Perhaps they were frightened by Chen Fan's cold gaze. After hearing Chen Fan's words, several young people did not continue to provoke, but left in despair.
Chen Fan did not continue to care about this.
After walking for a while, Chen Fan brought Tian Cao to a small square. There were many people in the square, most of them lovers. Those lovers sat on the wooden chairs beside the lawn, cuddling with each other, whispering, and communicating with each other.
of love.
"Are you tired?" Chen Fan turned around and glanced at Tian Cao, who was still walking with his head down, and said, "If you are tired, just sit down and rest for a while."
"Um."
Hearing this, Tian Cao nodded slightly and sat on a wooden chair with Chen Fan. However, she did not lean on Chen Fan like the girls around her relying on their boyfriends. Instead, she raised her head and looked at Chen Fan calmly.
.
The evening wind blew by, blowing up a few strands of hair on Tian Cao's forehead. She took a breath of fresh air and whispered softly: "Chen Fan, thank you for everything you have done for me and my mother."
"No need to thank me, this is what I promised you." Chen Fan shook his head gently, pondered for a moment, and then asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Tian Cao looked up at the bright starry sky, shook his head gently and said, "I just feel empty in my heart."
Chen Fan fell silent after hearing Tian Cao's words.
He knew very well that Tian Cao had been running around with time as if he had taken off all his clothes, studying hard, just to stand out one day and realize his wish: let Xue Hu kneel in front of their mother and daughter, kowtow and admit his mistakes!
Now...she killed Xue Hu with her own hands, her wish came true, and she suddenly fell into a state of confusion, just like Xue Ke, both of them were like boats lost in the ocean, not knowing what to do next.
"Xiaocao, do you still remember what I said to you?" Chen Fan thought for a while and said: "I once told you that you can have hatred, but you cannot be blinded by hatred - although a person's life
It is a snap of a finger, but it is rich and colorful. There are many things in our lives besides hatred."
Tian Cao lowered his head and looked at Chen Fan, seeming to understand.
"Xue Hu is a knot in your heart. Now that this knot has been solved, you must step out of the shadow of hatred and happily welcome your future life." Chen Fan said softly.
future life?
Hearing these words, Tian Cao was like a lost person in the dark who encountered a bright light, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.
She couldn't help but think of her original vow: she would cherish the opportunity and platform Chen Fan gave her, do her best, and never let Chen Fan down!
The past vows came to mind, and Tian Cao's calm eyes gradually released a strange color, making her whole person a little more energetic.
Realizing this, Chen Fan smiled happily.
This time, Tian Cao didn't say thank you again. Instead, like the lovers around him, he held Chen Fan's arm and leaned on Chen Fan's shoulder.
This is not the first time she has relied on Chen Fan.
