After the court hearing ended, and four working days after I received the verdict, I went to the district and was assigned to the "Beichang" prison. People's hearts are divided into three levels, and prisons are also divided into three, six, and nine levels.
Those with sentences of less than three years are generally held in prisons with intensive training teams, while those with sentences of more than ten years are generally sent to prisons for serious offenders in remote areas.
There is only one prison for serious criminals here, so Brother Xu, who was sentenced to a suspended death sentence, is also being held here. He was assigned to the kitchen of the second prison area and was responsible for steaming steamed buns, while I was assigned to the plumbing in the third prison area.
I started my career as a wrench with a group of "seniors". I had no choice but to prevent suspects in the prison, and our relationship wouldn't improve in a short time, so we could only earn cents like ordinary mortals and barely survive.
Today is the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.
The captain of the third prison district asked us to go to the fifth district to repair the water pipes and clean up. The fifth district is full of old, weak, sick and disabled prisoners who can no longer squeeze out any labor force. The Chinese New Year is tomorrow, so
Let us go and help clean up.
"Meng Fei, come here!!" As soon as the captain left, our team leader, who was leading the work, leaned against the cell door, knocking on some unfried melon seeds, and called me.
I looked up at him, nodded and smiled, wiping my sweat and walked over.
"Are you doing well outside?" the team leader glanced at me up and down and asked casually.
"Brother Wang, what's the matter?" I was stunned for a moment and asked. After I came in, I seldom talked to others. Every day, I did all the work that I should do and the work that I didn't need to do. I only squeezed it clean.
Only with the last bit of strength in my body could I fall asleep. I didn't dare to be idle, because I was afraid that if I couldn't sleep at night, Weiwei's figure would appear in my mind...
"Do you know Zhao Zilong?"
"Know!" I nodded.
"He asked someone to let me take care of you inside!" the team leader said, looking at me sideways.
I was stunned again, nodded slowly, and then opened my mouth and said: "Then I understand! Let's change places...!"
"Come to the toilet!!" The team leader pointed at me and said, threw away the melon seeds in his hand, and then led the two of them to turn around and leave. I put down the towel, looked at the wrench in my hand, gritted my teeth and paused for a second.
Then he put it down without hesitation and followed in.
"You have done something to Zhao Zilong outside. We are friends. Is it okay for me to beat you?" the team leader asked.
"Yeah!" I stood in the corner of the toilet, looked at the three of them, and nodded silently.
"Fuck you, mother, beat him!!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the three of them pulled my hair like wolves and tigers, pressed it against the wall and gave me a hard slap. More than four months in the detention center had left me with no strength left in my body. I held my head tightly, but
There was no way to protect him, so he could only curl up on the ground and lean against the wall, clinging to him.
Ten minutes later, the team leader gasped and pointed at me and asked, "Why don't you fight back? Aren't you awesome?"
"Ahem...!" I coughed twice violently, wiped the blood from my nose, sat on the ground, looked up at him and said seriously: "I just want to go out early, there are people waiting for me at home...
....!"
"...!" The team leader looked at me without saying anything.
"Can you explain to Zhao Zilong if I'm like this? If you can't, you can hit me again, no matter how hard you hit me. I will definitely not fight back! And I won't tell the prison guard!" I looked up at him and asked seriously again.
.
"..........This matter is over! Let's work hard from now on!" The team leader was speechless for a long time, then turned around and left with the others.
I stood up with great effort, walked to the pool, silently washed the blood on my face, then walked out and continued working, but found that the work had already been done by someone else.
It’s over. I can’t be so tired that I fall down and fall asleep today. How am I going to spend the night?
With an uneasy mood, we stood in a row, followed by the captain, and prepared to return to the prison area. As we were walking, we passed through the square, and I turned around and saw Brother Xu, standing in a row, playing without accompaniment
He screamed: "Farewell tonight, farewell tonight, no matter new friends or old friends, we will invite you again next spring. The green hills are here, and people are not old...!"
Brother Xu and the others were rehearsing for the prison party tomorrow night. I watched him shouting with veins popping up in his neck, without any trace of it. I felt that this song, which was originally a soft style, was just screaming and nowhere.
Vent all kinds of complex emotions!!
After bidding farewell tonight, they will meet again in the year, and the green mountains will be there. Looking back again, our eyes are full of frost!!
...
At night, the light was dim, the room was slightly bright, the frost was frozen, and crystal frost flowers formed on the windows. I lay on the bed and breathed hot air against the glass. The frost flowers melted quickly and then froze again.
I couldn't sleep, so I looked out the window blankly.
A moment.
Its daybreak!
During the day, the sun is dazzlingly bright!!
I saw clearly, it was a playground, and there were five figures on the playground!!
"Wang Mumu, can you fucking kick?!" Zhang Wei held his legs and knees and asked while breathing heavily.
"I'm the fucking soul master who wears no clothes in the midfield. Do you think I can play?"
"Then why are you kicking in your own door??" Leile asked, pointing at Mumu and cursing.
"Didn't I get in a hurry and see something wrong? Can you blame me? The two goals are almost the same, and they look like twins?" Wang Mumu still refused to admit that his triangular eyes were actually of no use at all.
"I think, with Wang Mumu, we have no hope of winning the championship this semester!" Chenchen lay on the ground, complaining desperately.
"Hit him!" I yelled.
Then the four of us rushed towards Wang Mumu.
In the empty playground, we were running and chasing. In an instant, the screen rotated!!
barren mountain!
Extremely desolate barren mountains!
Zhang Wei was kneeling on the ground, his face pale and his eyes looking desperate!!
"Hang!"
Gunshot!!
Zhang Wei rolled down the mountain. The four of us frantically chased his falling body, but we couldn't keep up with his rolling speed...
My eyes became blurry again, the picture disappeared, and I looked up at the ceiling of the prison, the lights that never go out three hundred and sixty-five days a year!!
Sudden!
I have an emotion stirring in my chest. I need to express it, I need to talk it out, I need to tell the countless stories about brothers that I have buried in my heart!!
Who should I tell??
How should I express it??
I was stunned for a long time, and suddenly I noticed the pen and paper on the bedside table!!
I jumped out of bed like crazy, sat on the chair with my bare feet. I held the pen with trembling palms and looked at the blank and yellowed letter. I suddenly became quiet for a moment.
The light swayed slightly, and the mottled wall reflected a figure lying on the table, writing something seriously.
"I would like to write this book to commemorate those lost years of youth...!" I started to write the preface. Looking at the handwriting on the paper, I was stunned for a long time, and then I wrote it again at the beginning of the letter paper.
