Chapter 393: Pitiable people must have their hateful sides_1
“Zhou Junyi and I indeed grew up together as childhood friends, and I originally thought that we would be friends for life…”
Only when the surroundings quieted down did Du Zhanpeng begin to narrate his past with Zhou Junyi.
It was as if he wanted to pour out several decades’ worth of suppressed feelings, longing for soone who could understand his pain.
Tang Feng did not interrupt him, but listened quietly at his side.
“But… but as I grew older, my developnt was much slower than my peers’. At the age where everyone else was shooting up in height, I remained looking like an eight-year-old with no further changes…”
When Du Zhanpeng reached this point, his voice was filled with bitterness.
...
The pain he had suffered was incomprehensible to others.
“Classmates started to distance themselves from , to mock , and I didn’t care about that because they weren’t important to . But even my best friend, Zhou Junyi, started to ridicule and mock , saying I was an eternally childlike little brat…”
His voice trembled, betraying the great emotional turmoil he was experiencing.
The people around were gradually moved by his story, and so tender-hearted individuals had already started to wipe away tears.
One could imagine Du Zhanpeng’s pain at the ti, which stemd not only from the tornt of a rare disease but also from the ridicule of a close friend.
A wry smile appeared on Du Zhanpeng’s face. “Even though it hurt, I kept it to myself because I didn’t want to lose my only friend. On the day of his wedding, I dressed up specially to attend, even giving him an envelope with ten thousand yuan as a wedding gift…”
The crowd knew his story was about to take a turn, and listened very attentively.
Even Tang Feng was affected by his emotions.
In reality, the system had only scanned so basic information.
He only knew Zhou Junyi was Du Zhanpeng’s childhood friend, killed by Du Zhanpeng on his wedding night.
The rest of the details were his own fabrication, intended to provoke Du Zhanpeng.
So now, hearing Du Zhanpeng narrate the detailed sequence of events, he also felt a series of sighs welling up.
“On that day, I truly went with blessings in my heart, feeling genuinely happy for my good friend’s marriage,” said Du Zhanpeng, but his expression suddenly darkened, his face full of hatred, “but at the banquet, Zhou Junyi publicly humiliated . He dragged onto the stage, exposed my pain in front of all the guests, and made act as a primary school student for their amusent…”
Hearing this, everyone felt that Zhou Junyi was too much.
No matter the circumstances, publicly exposing a good friend’s scars and mocking them was a nauseating act.
“Hehehe, I considered him my best friend, but he treated like a clown. He even said I could never marry or have offspring in this lifeti…” When Du Zhanpeng reached this point, his voice was filled with grinding teeth, “So, I wanted to show him the consequences of humiliating .”
“And then you killed him?” Tang Feng frowned.
While his plight was sympathetic, resorting to murder was a bit extre.
“That’s right,” Du Zhanpeng nodded, admitting it directly, “I hid under their bed, and when they were in their wedding chamber, I personally slaughtered them. Hahaha, you can’t imagine how thrilled I was at that mont.”
Tang Feng stared coldly at him, “Even if you wanted revenge on Zhou Junyi, why kill his wife and child? These two were innocent, weren’t they?”
“Killing his wife was because she saw kill Zhou Junyi; I had to silence her,” Du Zhanpeng said, as though it was the most natural thing in the world.
“And the child?”
“The child…” Du Zhanpeng fell silent for a while before giving a la excuse, “I figured, both parents gone, how pitiable the child would be left in this world. Rather than suffering in life, it was better to die with its parents.”
At this, everyone felt a chilling sensation.
The slight pity they had for Du Zhanpeng vanished instantly.
This reason clearly did not convince anyone.
They could still reluctantly understand his killing of Zhou Junyi.
The reason for killing Zhou Junyi’s wife was far-fetched yet passable.
But to kill a baby in swaddling clothes simply because it might suffer in life was beyond normal reasoning.
This Du Zhanpeng, suffering from disease from a young age and subject to so much mockery, had severely twisted his mind.
Zhou Junyi’s taunts were just the catalyst, igniting the venom in his heart.
Even without that incident, he was bound to explode sooner or later.
It proved that even the most pitiable have their contemptible side.
Now, the whole truth was laid bare.
This seemingly harmless “child” turned out to be a deranged killer.
That innocent face, now appeared so evil.
So of the more timid individuals had already hidden behind others.
“Are you done talking? If so, co with ,” Tang Feng finally spoke as Du Zhanpeng finished venting.
“I… I don’t want to die, please spare , I can give you all my money…”
Previously impassioned, Du Zhanpeng, having emptied all his resentnt, suddenly beca deflated, whimpering to Tang Feng for rcy.
“I’m sorry, whether to spare you or not is a matter for the authorities, and my mission is to deliver you to them,” Tang Feng replied, too lazy to argue further, and picked him up with one hand, as easily as if grabbing a chick.
The onlookers quickly made way, their gazes complicated as they watched the two depart.
The day’s events had deeply shaken them, and it would likely take them a long ti to recover.
Zhonghai people had plenty to talk about for quite a while: firstly, the extrely rare condition of agelessness, and secondly, a deranged murderer on the run for over two decades.
The story was so incredible it could make for a movie.
Many started to take out their phones, posting this bizarre tale in their social circles, exaggerating every detail.
Undoubtedly, this incident would be a sensational topic among Zhonghai inhabitants for a long ti to co.
