Love is like sugar and marriage is like water

After Murong Lian finished talking to Cao Pu, she ignored him, turned around and walked into one of the three-bedroom rooms, closed the door, and sat on the chair beside the bed to wait.

He waited for Cao Pu to come in.

Murong Lian knew that her husband had tried his best to build the building where she now lived, but it was no stronger than the collapsed building in the community.

She has lived with her husband for a long time, and she knows her husband's temper very well - he never follows the rules, especially when it comes to construction.

As long as he can find a way to be opportunistic, Cao Pu will not abide by the standards in the building.

All he cares about is the number of deposits in the bank, and he doesn't care much about anything else.

Will Cao Pu finally admit it? Will he plead guilty and be punished?

Murong Lian thought for a while, but she didn't see her husband coming into the house to see her, so she stood up from the chair, walked to the balcony, and then leaned on the railing to look at the scenery outside.

Below the fifteen-story elevator building is a red asphalt path. This path connects the community with East Lake. The light reflected from the window glass of the building opposite made her particularly dazzling.

At this time, stars were shining on the lake.

The front of the building she was in faced the lake.

Murong Lian looked to the left and saw a bedroom at the end of the corridor separated by a balcony. The sliding door in that bedroom was open, and the light illuminated the black partition with a faint glow.

She thought that what her husband did was obviously wrong. On the one hand, he was suffering from inner torture, and on the other hand, he did not admit the fact of his crime.

Therefore, in Murong Lian's view, he must be made to admit the crimes he should admit and confess the things he should confess...

However, her husband neither admitted nor confessed, so how could he get rid of his twisted criminal mentality and forget all the facts of his crimes in such a state?

For example, he felt that the footsteps and voices coming from the room on the higher floor... those had never existed and were ethereal——

But it will continue to pass into his ears-this itself is an illusion or delusion on his part.

Could it be that if he continues like this for a long time, when will this come to an end? Besides, the government investigation department will come to your door sooner or later, so can you be saved only by losing yourself?

Suddenly, Murong Lian heard a heartbreaking scream coming from a bedroom, which was obviously Cao Pu's painful scream.

Murong Lian immediately ran towards the bedroom.

She saw that the bedroom door was locked and couldn't be opened no matter how hard she screamed, so she had to break it open.

When she pushed the door open, she happened to see what was happening.

She saw Cao Pu screaming and smashing the window glass like a drunk bear...

She also saw Cao Pu covered in blood. He rushed outside until he rushed out of the balcony and was floating in the air.

She saw Cao Pu slowly sinking, his arms waving wildly in the air.

Perhaps it was just a trace of desire to survive that made him obviously regret it. Before falling to the ground, he was looking for a support or a handhold to quickly climb up.

However, there was nowhere to be found in the air, and it was too late to regret... He had no choice but to quickly fall down until he disappeared from Murong Lian's sight.

Cao Pu kept falling down, passing the distance of fifteen floors, until the red asphalt path caught Cao Pu. He hit the ground head first and was hit with blood stains.

He committed suicide...

Later, Murong Lian called 110 to report the incident to the police.

She said to the four police officers who arrived to investigate in less than ten minutes: "My husband has been saying that he can hear footsteps and voices. I don't know if he heard it, but the tone of his words to me and the way he acted But he acted as if he really heard something."

An older policeman was a tall man, maybe a leading team leader or something. While holding his bearded chin, he carefully looked or rather searched the entire room.

"Where are the... voices and footsteps... that Cao Pu mentioned?" He looked at Murong Lian with doubtful eyes and asked in a cold tone.

"He said he is in the room on the upper floor. He can hear it every day, and it is even louder at night. He is troubled by these sounds every day... I think he is suffering from depression..."

Murong Lian pointed upward at the ceiling as she spoke.

The tall policeman looked at the ceiling in confusion: "I just went to take a look. There is a garden on the top of the building, but there are no rooms!"

"Of course there is, but it's not this building... there is another building with a sixteenth floor."

"what?"

"However, that sixteen-story building collapsed three years ago... That building had one more floor than this building. You police officers also came to investigate this matter..."

"Well...yes...but how do you connect it with the sound of footsteps and voices?"

"Because when the building collapsed, there were six people working on the top floor, and they all died. But... you didn't investigate this..."

……

When Yu Chisheng learned the news of Cao Pu's death, he was already the deputy director of a bureau in the main urban area of ​​W City. Of course, he did not learn the news from Murong Lian, but from the Internet.

He has no contact with Murong Lian for a long time... Maybe he has completely forgotten about Murong Lian, which shows that he is an ungrateful person.

With the support of Murong Lian, Yu Chisheng got his undergraduate diploma from the business school and passed the exam to become a civil servant.

With his ability and of course his handsomeness... he fell in love with Ouyang Shan, the daughter of a leader in D City. With the help of Ouyang's father, Yu Chisheng successfully became deputy director.

Although the deputy director was only at the deputy section level, his department was an oil-and-water unit... Therefore, during his tenure as deputy director, he paid off all the money he owed Murong Lian.

Although the money has been paid off, the emotional debt remains.

Yu Chisheng established his authority from the first day he was appointed deputy director. His expressionless face and stern and almost ferocious eyes made his subordinates afraid to make mistakes.

Five or six days after he came to the bureau, he dispelled the idea of ​​his colleagues laughing at him with his thoughtful and measured way of treating others, and his proficiency in business and work ability.

Every employee in the unit respects Yu Chisheng without exception.

After Yu Chisheng established a foothold in the unit, he sometimes thought of his first benefactor, Murong Lian. But he just thought about it and took no other action to express his gratitude. He did not dare to mention this past event.

He was worried about being discovered by his girlfriend Ouyang Shan's father.

Just when Yu Chisheng was intoxicated in the vanity of being admired, her girlfriend Ouyang Shan called him and asked him to go home quickly.
