Take It Easy

Chapter 68 – Southwest

She wanted to cut those people to pieces.

In the non-closing teahouse next to the provincial platform, Wang Hejing and Zhou Yi were sitting by the window on the second floor, and the night below was the street.

“Do you know Xiaomu?” Wang Hejing put down his phone and asked kindly.

Zhou Yi let out a “huh” without saying anything unnecessary.

Wang Hejing didn’t stop there, “What’s the relationship?”

Zhou Yi hesitated, Provincial Taiwan is an absolutely decent unit, she is not sure if she can talk about some things.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yi said, “Friend…”

Wang Hejing smiled and raised his hand to signal her to taste the new tea in the bowl.

Zhou Yi didn’t know much about tea, so he took a sip casually and said, “Director Wang, I came to you to ask you something.”

Wang Hejing, “What’s the matter?”

Zhou Yi clenched and flattened his hands on his legs, and wiped his palms on his pants, “The reason why Mu Qinglin went to “Ping An Jiangping” from the news center.”

Wang Hejing was slightly taken aback, “Did you know that she used to be from the news center?”

Zhou Yi, “It was first broadcast on the international channel.”

“It seems you know a lot.”

“only these.”

“Then you should understand that Xiao Mu doesn’t tell you other things because she doesn’t want others to know. If that’s the case, why do you bother to ask?” Wang Hejing asked back.

“I really didn’t intend to ask before, and I even thought about it, but now…” Zhou Yi looked at the tea bowl in a daze for a while, “Sometimes she is not in a good state and will do things that make her feel guilty. I can’t help her, but I I want to have the confidence to say “it’s okay” to her. It will be a long time in the future, if she gets stabbed by those things again one day, I also want to know where the thorn is and how to remove it. “

“Can you stay by her side forever?”

“can…”

Zhou Yi’s answer was too hasty, and there was no room for change. After she finished speaking, Wang Hejing’s eyes darkened for a moment, as if she had discovered something.

Zhou Yi wanted to make amends, “I mean…”

“You have been waiting for me at Lao Cai’s place these days?” Wang Hejing interrupted.

Zhou Yi, “Hmm…”

“Not hard?”

“It’s hard work, but if you don’t do anything, your heart is always on your mind.”

“Maybe I will mention it for a while…” Wang Hejing said, “No matter how lightly I say the things you want to know, they can’t cover up the **** and cruel facts. You should be prepared.”

Zhou Yi was stunned by the sudden change of topic and Wang Hejing’s serious words. Soon, she sat up straight and said firmly, “Okay…”

Wang Hejing responded, and it took a long time before he began to speak, “Xiaomu’s mother, Shang Ning, is a wildlife ranger who is in charge of poaching intelligence. Two and a half years ago during the Spring Festival, she was killed by someone from an overseas poaching organization because her identity was exposed.” No, there is no dead body, Xiao Mu…”

Wang Hejing’s sudden pause made Zhou Yi’s limbs feel cold, “Sister, what’s wrong with Mu Qinglin?”

Wang Hejing frowned deeply, and said in a low voice, “She watched her mother being tortured to death with her own eyes but couldn’t do anything. That hour was like **** to her.”

Zhou Yi opened his mouth in shock, but no sound came out of his throat.

At first, when Shang Ning and Mu Qinglin mentioned the patrol team, they just hoped to use the influence of the province and Taiwan to help the patrol team earn some money.

They are a self-organized organization, regardless of the state. The backward equipment caused by the shortage of funds made them overwhelmed when hunting down poachers. Some people chose to leave the team because they could not stand the harsh living conditions. .

After all, ideals and love cannot be eaten. When they look up to chase the moon, they have already lost the qualification to be waited by reality.

“When Xiaomu found out about Shang Ning’s situation, she immediately came to discuss with me, and said that she wanted to do a few special issues to explore and report on the profession of wildlife ranger in depth.” Wang Hejing sighed, “But at that time, I was in a rush The leadership team in the stage changed. The old people want to be stable, and the newcomers want to achieve results. Wildlife insurance is a project that requires a lot of investment and long-term, but it will definitely be difficult to approve projects that do not get reciprocal returns because of the lack of attention.

We went up and down and went up and down to no avail, and finally decided to return to our work as investigative journalists and do something for them on our own. “

Zhou Yi suppressed his emotions and said, “Personal ability is very limited.”

“Yes, in the face of this kind of case that has been extended overseas, personal ability can be said to be a drop in the bucket.” Wang Hejing said: “We have communicated with Shang Ning many times before and after. The daughter put herself in danger, but on the other hand, she decided to change her career to become an investigative reporter because of a sentence she told her when she was a child. The daughter didn’t want her mother to live in fear every day, and she didn’t want to be spotted by poaching gangs if she didn’t say a word well. identity.”

“Those people have no humanity. Once they fall into their hands, there will be no way out.” Wang Hejing said while biting those words.

Zhou Yi froze, “Auntie finally compromised, right?”

“Well…” Wang Hejing was quiet and calmed down, “Shang Ning said he couldn’t help the patrol team, so he focused on anti-poaching. There is no end to anti-poaching, and it depends on the patrol team’s daily driving Informants like He Shangning who go deep into the poaching gang to provide information and solve the problem from the root, they love their profession with their lives.”

Wang Hejing said that her eyes were red, “Shang Ning is very cautious. She joined the patrol team for 23 years and engaged in anti-poaching intelligence collection for eight years. She was found out. She is not afraid of death, but she certainly never thought that she would die in front of her daughter.”

Shang Ning sent the route of the poaching operation to Mu Qinglin, Wang Hejing, and the patrol team in the reserve three days in advance.

The patrol team will set up defenses in advance based on this information, while Mu Qinglin and Wang Hejing need to step on the spot in advance and choose an absolutely safe location to take pictures of the anti-poaching scene, so that they can be handed over to the reserve and the patrol team as direct evidence. Provincial and Taiwan channels to report and expand attention.

Shang Ning has been playing this kind of cooperation for eight years, and there have been no accidents during this period.

Just once, with her own daughter, she lost her life.

There was nothing unusual before the plan started to derail. Shang Ning, like the previous few times, walked to the reserve in the car of the poaching gang.

It was about to pass the checkpoint, but the car suddenly changed its course.

Shang Ning was told that the road he often took was not safe, and his plan changed.

Shang Ning had a bad feeling, but there were people around, and it was too late to contact Mu Qinglin and the protection zone, so she could only act accordingly.

The car drove for half an hour on the rugged mountain road.

From clear skies to rainstorms.

“Those beasts who are not as good as animals regard Shang Ning as an animal that can be hunted and killed wantonly in the reserve, and threaten her with a machete. As long as they tell me where Xiaomu and I are, they will let her live.” Wang Hejing’s angry voice gradually suppressed. She couldn’t help being horrifying, “Everyone knows that their words are not credible. Even if they were credible, Shang Ning would never trade Mu Qinglin for herself. If she didn’t say anything, those people’s machetes would fall on anyone who was not fatal. , but it would be a place where people would be overwhelmed with pain.”

Zhou Yi’s life before she came to Jiangping was drawn into a diary for Zhou Ming and Ruan Zhongyi. She is best at painting panoramas. When Wang Hejing was talking, she quickly reconstructed the scene in her mind, so clear that even the rainstorm hit the ground. The traces were not missed, but she couldn’t find Mu Qinglin.

Zhou Yi seemed to be drenched by the torrential rain in his head, his frozen voice was trembling, “Where’s Mu Qinglin?”

“She and I watched from a high place where we could see the whole situation. It was the best shooting location that we had chosen thousands of times, but in the end…” Wang Hejing covered his face with his hands, and did not say a word for a long time.

The picture in Zhou Yi’s mind was finally complete.

She saw Mu Qinglin struggling silently in the heavy rain, like a trapped animal being strangled by the throat, the sense of powerlessness was devouring her bit by bit.

The surroundings were quiet, and Zhou Yi asked Wang Hejing with his last hope, “Did you cover her eyes for her?”

Wang Hejing, who had endured it for two years, burst into tears again, “I have to stop her from going to die for nothing, I can’t hold it back.”

“Zhou Yi, you will never know how cold it was that day, and the rain hurt your bones.” Wang Hejing looked down at his hands, his voice was hoarse and trembling, “Xiao Mu was pressed by me with all my strength. She couldn’t move on the ground, and she didn’t dare to make a sound, when she saw Shang Ning’s first finger cut off, she broke an arm and dislocated it.”

finger…

Zhou Yi closed his eyes in the intense dizziness.

I understand.

It was agreed that there were “good things” to tell her that night, but Mu Qinglin calmly drove her away because she saw her cut finger and knew that she was going to get sick.

Zhou Yi’s limbs were so numb that he lost consciousness.

She should have gotten to know Mu Qinglin a long time ago. If she knew this, she would be more careful that night and go back to take a look.

Zhou Yi pinched his palm tightly, forcing himself to swallow the swelling pain in his throat, “What happened next?”

Wang Hejing, “Later she just watched like that, saw the booing and laughter dissipated, and asked me with blood in her mouth, “Master, did I do something wrong?” “

“No!” Zhou Yi’s eyes were bloodshot.

Wang Hejing said: “Indeed not, all the arrangements are perfect, the only and the biggest omission is that the poaching operation was fake from the very beginning, and Shang Ning’s identity at that time has been discovered. It’s all about tricks, but Shang Ning would rather die than tell us where we are, so they chose to use cruel methods to make an example of them. What’s even more unacceptable is that until now, we don’t know how Shang Ning’s identity was exposed.”

“Then aunt died in vain?” Zhou Yi murmured.

No wonder Mu Qinglin said it was difficult, she didn’t even have a door to walk out, so how could it not be difficult?

Wang Hejing didn’t hear Zhou Yi’s murmur, and continued, “Xiao Mu woke up after two days of coma, and went to find Shang Ning’s body thrown into the river by those people. The river was very urgent, and Shang Ning’s body was yes…”

Wang Hejing couldn’t help but blurt out the words “one piece one piece” before his voice became clear again, “Professional rescuers can’t help, how can Xiaomu find it? But she can’t listen to anything, who Stopping her from doing it, she was very emotional, the doctor found something was wrong, and called Lu He, who was staying with her husband over there at that time, to confirm that it was a psychological problem, a very serious PTSD.

For the next six months, Xiao Mu received treatment at Lu He’s, and when she came back to Taiwan, she took the initiative to find me, saying that the current state was no longer suitable for me to continue working as an investigative reporter, and she wanted to resign.

Firstly, I felt guilty for taking her out but failed to bring her back properly, and secondly, I was reluctant to let her go, so I asked an old friend who worked on Minsheng news to transfer her there. “

Half a year, so long.

Was Mu Qinglin in those six months just like what she saw that night, suffering alone?

Or, is it harder than that?

Zhou Yi couldn’t take it anymore, she hurriedly pushed the chair away, lay on her lap to pant, and when the suffocation passed, she wiped her face and sat up, solemnly said: “Thank you for still being willing to leave a way for her.”

Wang Hejing shook his head, this sentence of thanks would only make him ashamed, “The past two years have been calm, I thought it was over, I have been trying to persuade her to go back to the news center, who knows, alas, I went to the Southwest this Spring Festival to visit Shangning Made it again.”

Wang Hejing’s words brought back forgotten memories in Zhou Yi’s mind, and her face suddenly became as white as paper, “Did she go to the southwest to pay homage to Auntie?”

Wang Hejing, “There are no bones left, and I can’t come back. She has to go there.”

Zhou Yi was so ashamed that she wanted to slap herself to death. In the car, she heard Mu Qinglin say that she was going to the Southwest to meet a woman, and she even jumped to conclusions just because she heard Chen Chao’s voice, and wanted to have **** with her first. Get rid of the relationship.

She was liking her then.

It’s still the Spring Festival, such an important day, she is alone, with a fault that doesn’t belong to her, to worship the most important person in her life… Spring Festival…

Zhou Yi swallowed with a stuffy throat, raised his head and asked Wang Hejing, “When did Auntie die?”

Wang Hejing, “The third day of the new year…”

Zhou Ming and Ruan Zhongyi are on the fourth day of junior high school, and there is only one day difference.

What happened to that Spring Festival?

“Director Wang, is this the end of the matter?” Zhou Yi was not reconciled, “Mu Qinglin did nothing wrong, she was just working hard, and she just felt sorry for Auntie, why should she bear the consequences instead?”

She could have had a better life than anyone else on the international channel.

Zhou Yi dare not say this, Mu Qinglin said that she likes to be an investigative reporter.

But she is really not reconciled.

Such a good person would rather be scolded for being mentally ill than insist on choosing something more worthwhile, but in the end he had to exile himself and become a “dumb” person.

Wang Hejing experienced it personally, and his feelings are no less than Zhou Yi’s, but, “Life is going back and forth, where we can’t be satisfied, we can only hope for a certain opportunity in the future, and in another way, let these irreparable things come to an end. A little perfection. If you can’t, then be an ordinary person, believe in the sky, and hope that “retribution is not good” will be confirmed by those wicked people. “

Zhou Yi wanted to add one more sentence: She wanted to cut those people into pieces.

The bustling streets downstairs contrasted with the silence upstairs.

Zhou Yi looked up at the rising sun hanging on the eaves, suddenly realized that it was dawn, and her cell phone was ringing.

Six past three.

Mu Qinglin wakes up at six o’clock every day, and the extra three minutes are from when she gets up to when she knocks on her door and comes in and sits on the edge of the bed, with her slender legs crossed, one hand resting on her knees to support the side of her face, Tap the dimples on her lips with one hand, and lazily say “good morning” to her.
