Ferocious Dog of Old - Chapter 32
[Chapter 32]
“Tao Huainan…you have a cup of yogurt.” The school committee came to sit next to Tao Huainan, pushed the yogurt towards Tao Huainan, and whispered to him.
“Thank you.” Tao Huainan thanked him and said politely to the other party. He has not recovered from the cold, and speaks in a nasal voice.
During the lunch break, the two of them sat quietly for a while, and there were several girls in the classroom scattered in their seats.
After a while, the school committee asked, “Why didn’t Chiku come?”
Tao Huainan was silent for a while, and then he said, “I don’t know either.”
“Why don’t you know?” The school committee blinked and asked him , “Aren’t you two together every day?”
“I really don’t know,” Tao Huainan scratched his finger on the edge of the table, smiled softly and said, “I miss him too.
” God, Tao Huainan comes and goes by himself every day, and the class secretly discusses the suffering. Some said that his grades were too good to skip grades, and some secretly said that his family knew about his puppy love affair with the school committee, and he was transferred to another school.
Some people came to ask Tao Huainan in private, Tao Huainan said that his little brother just asked for leave and would come in a few days.
The two boys at the back table sometimes knocked on Tao Huainan’s table with their legs before going out between classes, and asked him if he wanted to go to the toilet, Tao Huainan shook his head and said no.
I don’t want to bother others, and I don’t want to move.
Tao Huainan is not angry anymore, not at all. As long as it’s okay to be late, it’s okay to not come back.
Brother encountered some troubles there. There was a small accident in the exhibition, and it was not completed smoothly. Tao Huainan did not see him for two days, and it was Tian Yi who picked him up.
Tao Huainan was worried about Chiku and his brother. But he can’t do anything, he’s a blind little trash, he needs to be protected, and he can never protect them in return.
There was no news about Chi Kui, and Tao Huainan was so worried that he couldn’t sleep all night. He always thinks a lot, and every call he can’t get through can make him think of a possibility, whether Chi Ku was called by his father or something. When I closed my eyes, it seemed that I could recall the smell of blood on the van when I was a child, and a child who twitched.
Tao Huainan made no difference if his eyes were open or closed, so he kept his eyes open all night, thinking about the various possibilities why Chi Kui could not come back, each of which made his heart skip a beat and his soul gathered .
Tao Huainan was startled when the phone rang suddenly in the early morning, and then immediately jumped up from the bed, his arms and fingers shaking when he grabbed the phone buttons.
“…Hello?” Tao Huainan’s voice was also unstable and panicked.
“I.”
A short “I” came from his ear, and Tao Huainan’s throat became hoarse almost instantly.
“Why did you go…” Tao Huainan tried his best to suppress his sore nose, crouching on the bed and holding the phone tightly.
Chi Ku said, “My phone is broken, so I can’t make calls.”
“Why?” Tao Huainan asked continuously, holding his breath, “Chi Zhide robbed you of your phone? Did he hit you? Did you run away? Drop it?”
Chi Ku didn’t respond to him, but said to him, “I can’t talk about the phone I borrowed for too long. I’ll be back in a few days, don’t think about it.”
“Did he hit you?” In response to his words, he only asked himself: “Did he hit you? Did he hit you?”
Chi Ku said, “It’s okay.”
“Don’t let him hit you,” Tao Huainan still didn’t hold back, his face buried in his knees, and tears fell on his knees, “don’t mess with him, it’s okay if you don’t come back, I won’t go to the blind school, I was just trying to scare you before, and I’m still waiting for you.”
“Hold back, don’t cry.” Chi Ku was still completely unkind on the phone, with his characteristic tone of impatience, talking to Tao Huainan. Said, “Don’t go to school if you don’t want to, you don’t understand anything anyway.”
“I can understand… I listen carefully every day, and I can tell you when you come back.” Tao Huainan hurriedly told him, “Don’t rush back, don’t provoke him. Brother has been busy these days. We’ll pick you up when we’re done, you hide for Chi Zhide…”
“Don’t come!” Chi Ku interrupted him and said to him, “Don’t come, I can go back myself.”
He spoke in a hurry. He coughed a little, and his voice sounded empty, as if he was bored. After coughing a few times, he said fiercely to Tao Huainan, “Don’t let your brother come over and let Chi Zhide entangle you again. I’ll go back in a few more days, don’t worry.”
Tao Huainan just squatted and didn’t speak.
“Did you hear me?” Chi Kui asked impatiently.
Tao Huainan nodded, remembering that Chi Ku was not in sight, so he said, “I heard. Why are you coughing?”
Chi Ku still said “It’s okay”, and then said, “Hang up, I have to put the phone off. It’s back to others.”
Tao Huainan subconsciously wanted to stop it, but he still didn’t. He felt that there was still a lot to say, but there was no need to say it.
Because of this phone call, Tao Huainan’s heart fell to the ground for a short time, and it was better to have news than to have no news at all. The phone call Chi Ku borrowed to him made Tao Huainan seem to have recharged and had strength. Although my nose is still blocked and my head hurts a bit, at least my heart doesn’t hurt so much.
Tao Huainan listens carefully to every class, and is afraid that when Chi Kuu comes back to read, he can’t understand what he can’t understand. Although this situation may not really happen, Chi Kuu is too smart, he can read everything. .
After all, it is too late.
People’s mentality can change. Before he left, Tao Huainan felt that his own life was completely unimaginable. It was the end of the world. However, Chi Kuu really went for such a long time, even though it was really like the end of the world, but it came over, and even felt that it would be fine for a little longer, as long as Chi Kuu didn’t get beaten up.
Tao Huainan hadn’t seen his brother for several days. When he was picked up by Brother Tian Yi at night, he called him.
Tao Xiaodong thought he had something to do and asked him worriedly what was wrong.
Tao Huainan said, “It’s nothing, I just missed you.”
“Miss me?” Tao Xiaodong smiled on the phone, and he could hear tiredness in his voice, “Brother should be back tomorrow, take you to pick up Xiaochi. ”
Xiao Chi is calling me.” Tao Huainan comforted his brother on the phone, and also called “Xiao Chi”, “His cell phone is broken, he called me from someone else’s cell phone, he won’t let you go, It’s fierce.”
“Is he okay?”
“It’s okay, let’s not worry about it.” Tao Huainan said.
Tian Yi said here: “I heard you two talking on the phone in the middle of the night. When I heard something, I thought Xiaonan was secretly dating, but after a long time, it turned out to be
Xiaochi.” Tao Xiaodong heard it on the other end of the phone, Said him: “Why are you still listening to people’s calls? I’m not a big brother, let you take care of our children and let you eavesdrop on our calls?”
Tian Yi smiled and said, “We Xiaonan are not afraid of listening.”
Tao Huainan answered the phone that day I cried for a while, but now I think I’m embarrassed to hear that Brother Tian Yi, he smiled and didn’t speak.
Tao Huainan went to school for a week by himself. On the weekend, brother found that he had a bad cough and took him to hang for two days.
Tao Huainan’s body is average, and his immunity has been weak since he was a child. When he was a child, he often caught colds and fever. It would be better to leave other children with a small cold for a few days without injections or medicines, but it took him a week to procrastinate. It wasn’t too hard, so I didn’t care at first.
Who knew that the injection would actually arouse the disease completely. It may also be that Tao Huainan was worried that Chi Ku would not be able to eat or sleep well, and that he was in poor health recently. I had a rough two days over the weekend and felt better on Monday morning.
Tao Xiaodong asked him if he wanted to take a leave of absence on Monday morning.
Tao Huainan shook his head, and while tearing bread sticks into his mouth, he said, “I feel better now, my nose is breathing.”
“You bring your mobile phone and call your brother when you feel uncomfortable.” Tao Xiaodong told him.
“Okay.” Tao Huainan nodded obediently.
When I went out in the morning, I didn’t lie at all. I really felt better, my nose was clear, and my head didn’t hurt anymore. But at noon, Tao Huainan felt a chill while lying on his seat. The windows were closed all around, but it was still cold.
When he was half asleep, he almost blurted out a vague phrase, “I am cold when it’s too late.” Just as the sound of “chi” was about to be pronounced, he suddenly remembered that Chi Ku was not there, swallowed the last few words peacefully, and continued to lie down.
Headache, cold, no energy. If Chi Kui was here, Tao Huainan would definitely be humming lazily at this time. At the moment, it was only himself, so he didn’t think it was a big deal. He took a piece of paper and wiped his nose.
When I woke up and wanted to go to the toilet, I stood up feeling soft. Tao Huainan shook his head and wanted to wash his face by the way. There are few people in the toilet at the moment, and those who smoke have not come. Usually, there is no one in the toilet during the lunch break.
Tao Huainan leaned against the wall to go to the toilet, thinking that if he was still in this state tomorrow, he would take a leave of absence. It’s too uncomfortable. It’s better to lie down at home. When this state comes, you can’t listen to the class.
Tao Huainan really didn’t react at all when someone suddenly pulled a handful of clothes in the water room. Logically, there was no one in the toilet at this time, and he wasn’t prepared.
“Who?” Tao Huainan asked after bumping against the wall and stabilizing himself.
The other party didn’t say anything, just puffed a cigarette in his face.
Tao Huainan was uncomfortable at first, but the puff of smoke made him feel sick. Pressing down the nausea that was churning up, Tao Huainan frowned and said, “Go away.”
It may be that his word angered the other party. Tao Huainan heard a sarcastic laugh, and then felt that he was wet, as if water had been splashed.
At this time, he can’t escape, Tao Huainan is very clear. The best thing he should do is to stand still against the wall, quietly wait for the pranksters to have enough fun and go away.
However, recently, he had been accumulating a lot of depression. The worry about Chi Ku and the discomfort that he had brought with him today made Tao Huainan’s irritability value break through the top, and he couldn’t hold it back at all.
He scolded the front: “Trash that dare not speak out.”
Another water mark slapped his face, and when the cloth scraped his face, Tao Huainan knew that the other party was holding a mop and threw himself. Water should be the same.
“You can only find a sense of superiority in front of a blind man, like a maggot who dares not see the light.” Tao Huainan’s mind was dizzy for a while, and he pressed his two hands back against the wall.
A slap slapped his face, and the other party scolded him with a standard three-character curse. Tao Huainan could not hear the voice, it was not someone he knew.
Tao Huainan was drawn to the side of his face, originally frowning, but suddenly he wanted to laugh.
Brother and Chi Ku have protected him so well since childhood, they could not wait to carry him in their pockets and put layers of protective covers on him. However, because of his disability, whenever they can’t protect him, he is a child who can’t protect himself at all. He just said that others are trash, but he is actually a little trash himself.
Tao Huainan smiled again, licked his white lips, and continued to speak: “You are more useless than the mop you are holding, dirty and smelly.”
Tao Huainan is not one What a peaceful person, just because he was blind, he was forced to accept many rules of survival that belonged to him since he was a child, but he still carried the axis of the Tao family in his bones.
Anyway, you can’t escape, you can fight if you can, at most that’s it.
Tao Huainan scolded very happily that day, and vented all the negative emotions in his heart by swearing. Give him a scolding, and he doesn’t seem to have been beaten for a long time. When my parents were still there, my father would occasionally pat him twice because he was naughty and disobedient. After my parents left, my brother never beat him. My brother used to him badly.
Tao Huainan’s mind was no longer clear, and he was shivering from the cold. When his forehead hit the wall and was dragged into the toilet cubicle, Tao Huainan felt that he was suffocating.
Chi Ku estimated to throw him in the shower for two hours.
In a state of pain and cold, Tao Huainan thought that it hurt so much when he was beaten by a boy in his teenage years, and when Chi Kuu was so young when he was beaten by an adult by his father, it would be… painful. what kind of.
Tao Huainan has no strength at all, and even breathing is very laborious. It may also be due to the poor breathing caused by the squatting posture.
With the phone in the pocket of his schoolbag, Tao Huainan seemed to be unable to do anything other than squat here and wait for someone to come. Shouting that he doesn’t have the strength right now and doesn’t plan on doing that.
It’s shameful to be bullied, but don’t be so embarrassed that you don’t have any dignity.
Time was pulled slowly, every second felt like ten minutes.
It seemed that someone was beating a drum in his ear, and the noise made Tao Huainan’s headache almost explode. Before he completely lost consciousness, he didn’t know if he had been thinking too much about Chi Ku’s being beaten as a child, or if he had passed out and had a little sweet dream.
He seemed to be indistinct… He heard Chi Ku shouting “Tao Huainan” from a distance.
