Chen Jing noticed her change in the rearview mirror and said softly: "You should describe the painting to me in detail..."
Her pupils turned red again, and it was like two red moons in her eyes.
After hearing her words, Xu Xiaoxiao became confused again, and Mumu said: "It is a red oil painting, not created by a well-known artist, and there is no name of the creator on the back, but...but the painting is so beautiful..."
"It is a chaotic city, the lights are shaking, all the people are running and fighting, all the order has disappeared, only distortion and chaos remain in the city, and above the city, occupying about one-third of the entire painting, there is...there is a red moon, it quietly looks at the city below..."
"It's so beautiful..."
Xu Xiaoxiao's confused face actually showed an intoxicated look: "I used to identify a work of art, I would only look at its material, how popular it was before the disaster, its price before the disaster, and its author...but, but until I saw the oil painting, I felt that it turned out that none of those things were important...none of them were important..."
"What's important is its extreme beauty..."
"It's like there was a painter who, when the red moon came and everyone started to go crazy, only he... sat quietly by the window, holding a paintbrush, and left all the shock and beauty of the moment when the red moon appeared on the canvas..."
"..."
Her voice was originally very dull, lacking some subtle ups and downs, and only dry narration.
But when she talked about this painting, she was inexplicably filled with passion and enthusiasm.
Even her face, which was extremely pale due to excessive blood loss, looked a little red and swollen with blood at this time.
This strong contrast made Lu Xin and Chen Jing feel a little scared.
She looked like a lunatic.
Chen Jing was silent for a while, as if sketching the painting in her mind, and then she said, "What happened next?"
"Later..."
Xu Xiaoxiao's attention was forced to move away from the painting, and she looked much more numb, muttering, "I am sure that I like the painting and I want to own it... I don't want to give it to my father because I am worried that my father will sell it to others or lock it up... So I hid it first, and then went back to the city without telling my father, because I want to..."
"I want to collect this painting myself without my father knowing..."
"..."
Mr. Xu heard this, sighed deeply, and rubbed his face hard.
It was only then that he knew why his daughter did not mention the existence of the painting to him when she just returned to the main city and had not become crazy. In fact, if his daughter had said it at the beginning, then perhaps everything would not be like this now.
"Dad didn't suspect anything..."
Xu Xiaoxiao continued: "And my mood has always been good. My heart is full of passion, and I especially want to find someone to share it with. That feeling seems to have been fermenting and brewing in my heart, becoming stronger and stronger. So, I finally couldn't help it and called Aqiang, who was on night duty, into the bedroom. I felt empty and uncomfortable, and I needed something to fill me up..."
"..."
The content of her description began to be a little explicit, and there was no sense of shame at all.
Mr. Xu had been listening beside him, with an extremely painful expression on his face. Finally, when Xu Xiaoxiao talked about how she kept pulling different men into the bathroom in the bar, he trembled and spoke, his voice overpowering Xu Xiaoxiao who was still telling every detail, saying: "I also know what happened later, otherwise... I'll tell you..."
"You haven't been polluted, so the facts you tell will be different!"
Chen Jing directly rejected his words and said calmly: "If you can't stand it, you can cover your ears!"
Mr. Xu sighed deeply, bent down, and hugged his head.
"That feeling is getting stronger and stronger..."
"Sometimes, I also realize that this is wrong, and I will feel angry, but when that feeling breaks out, I will feel that it occupies my mind. I don't want to think about anything. I hate my father for stopping me. I think he doesn't understand me at all. I don't want to see Wei Chang either, because I just feel that he is annoying. I don't like to pretend to be normal in front of him..."
"..."
Chen Jing listened carefully and suddenly whispered: "Do you want to do this, or are you forced to do it?"
"Of course I want to do this..."
Xu Xiaoxiao answered without any hesitation, and even some strange excitement appeared on her face:
"Before... I didn't even dare to think about it, and the thoughts that were suppressed in my heart rose up completely. I suddenly felt that nothing was important and I didn't want to care about anything. I just needed to do it, because doing so could fill myself and fight against emptiness..."
"That feeling is so wonderful..."
"..."
Xu Xiaoxiao talked about her experience bit by bit, and at this time she became unusually frank.
And from her narration, Lu Xin could also feel her changes.
It seemed to penetrate her heart little by little, changing her behavior, from a certain throbbing at the beginning, to indulgence later, but still knowing how to cover up her behavior, and then later, she gradually no longer had any sense of shame.
She just wanted to pursue that feeling, nothing else mattered.
Then, her behavior gradually became crazy and uncontrollable in more than a month.
Finally, it was the way Lu Xin looked when he first saw her.
…
…
Even though Chen Jing chose to let her skip the specific details of this process, she still talked about it for a full ten minutes.
The absurd and bizarre description made Lu Xin blush at the beginning, and then turned into astonishment and shock.
"Ding Ling Ling..."
In this twisted and crazy atmosphere, when the whole car seemed a little depressed, a phone rang.
Xu Xiaoxiao's description was suddenly interrupted, and her eyes looked empty.
Chen Jing frowned, picked up the satellite phone at hand, and said, "What's the matter?"
After listening for a while, she said neatly, "Follow the previous procedures, I have more important things to do now!"
After that, she hung up the phone.
"During the investigation, we found several traces of pollution sources, and we have already sent people to deal with them."
Chen Jing casually explained to Lu Xin, then paused for a moment and looked at Xu Xiaoxiao through the rearview mirror
She did not continue to ask her how she felt when she was polluted, but asked coldly: "What did you feel after you woke up?"
Xu Xiaoxiao looked wooden, and after a while she said: "I remember everything."
"After I woke up, I just felt that the crazy feeling of emptiness had disappeared, but..."
"I still remember that wonderful feeling, I hope..."
She paused here before continuing, her eyes seemed to light up slightly: "I hope to see that painting again, that extremely beautiful painting, I hope to return to my previous appearance... I am in pain, I don't want to be awakened by you..."
"..."
Mr. Xu listened to her words, his eyes widened.
He seemed to have never expected that his daughter was so anxious to see the painting for this purpose.
Even Lu Xin frowned slightly, as if he understood why Xu Xiaoxiao was awakened at that time and looked so strange.
"After the pollution is cleaned up, the remaining impact."
Chen Jing said slowly, looking at Mr. Xu from the rearview mirror: "You didn't expect this, right?"
Mr. Xu was a little dazed and a little depressed. After a while, he said: "She... Xiaoxiao only told me that it was a painting that had never been seen in the world, and it would become a work of art that shocked the world... She studied this major, so I believe in her vision, and... and she also said that as long as the painting is covered and you don't look at it, there will be no problem..."
"..."
At this point, he finally couldn't say anything.
Because now she has understood that all this is actually her daughter who is deliberately persuading her.
She is her daughter, so she naturally knows where her weaknesses are.
Chen Jing was silent for a while, and said to Lu Xin: "You did a good job this time."
Lu Xin nodded slightly.
He understood why Chen Jing said that, because the distortion and weird feeling brought by this painting, as well as the terrible impact it had on Xu Xiaoxiao, it was hard to imagine that if this painting was brought into the main city and seen by more people, or if it suddenly appeared in an exhibition one day, then what kind of harm and distortion it would cause to the entire Qinggang City...
Especially at the end, this father and daughter, one thought he had been cured and was doing things based on his own cognition, and the other believed in his daughter and felt that he had the ability to control all situations. They both thought they were doing things based on their will.
But they don't know that they are still being affected, and their will has been distorted...
"I really didn't expect..."
Mr. Xu's voice also seemed a little dry: "I know the existence of the pollution source, but I didn't expect it... so serious."
"You have received enough warnings!"
Chen Jing replied calmly: "And the reason why you don't care enough is because you haven't seen it with your own eyes."
"You haven't seen it with your own eyes because we have dealt with these things."
"And while we are dealing with these things, you are still creating more trouble for us."
"You can say that you are deceived and influenced, but in the final analysis, it is because of your own greed!"
"..."
Mr. Xu was speechless for a long time before he just sighed with regret.
His decent and arrogant shell at the beginning had been stripped away at this time.
...
...
At this time, the lights in front had illuminated a messy cabinet and warehouse.
Chen Jing took a deep breath and said, "We have arrived at Bengbu Port."
