Chapter 220 Fate Rotation
Soon, the mirror was in Pan Haili's hands.
"You should know that my face is that of a dead person."
Pan Haili looked at herself in the mirror and traced her face inch by inch with her fingertips: "I can no longer remember what I originally looked like."
Chi Xia asked: "What was your original name?"
"No name."
Pan Haili said: "We are different from you. We have no talent, no looks, and are the defective products that have been eliminated. We have no names, only numerical codes. I... I remember I was probably 78."
"What will happen to people like you in the end?"
"have no idea."
Chi Xia frowned: "Then why would you work for Chi Xiao?"
“I do everybody’s work.”
Pan Haili looked at her own eyes through the mirror. Those were the only things on this face that belonged to her. "In order to survive, I will do anything for whoever can help me or threaten me. But in the beginning, it was the fox who led me out of that sea of suffering."
Chi Xia sat down again: "It sounds like you are not grateful to her at all."
"It's just one abyss to another abyss. What is there to be grateful for?"
Pan Haili laughed at herself: "Do you know the relationship between me and Pan Haili?"
"If I knew I wouldn't ask you."
Pan Haili laughed again: "We have the same blood flowing in our veins."
This sentence went around in Chi Xia's mind for a while before she finally understood: "Sisters?"
"Sisters."
Pan Haili put down the mirror and sighed: "When Lao K's people came to arrest people, I had the opportunity to be the one who stayed, but fate played tricks on me."
Chi Xia frowned slightly and said nothing.
“But she’s not having a good time either.”
Pan Haili said: "I have replayed our lives countless times. If the results were different, what would the ending be for us sisters? Would I be able to find a smooth path in her life?"
"And what were your results?"
Pan Haili shook her head, her eyes moist and sad: "It seems that no matter how I push it, the result is the same ."
She sighed deeply, "If the results were reversed, it would only change the order of our final destinations. I would be sold as a daughter-in-law like her, beaten, scolded, enslaved, and eventually die early. She would become a puppet and tool like me, trapped in one cage after another and dying a miserable death . You see, what's the difference?"
Chi Xia looked at her.
Pan Haili smiled at her with moist eyes: "Officer Chi, in this world, people can conquer nature and resist, mostly with some luck. Unfortunately, whether it's me, my sister, or those No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 like me, we were stripped of our dignity early on. It's enough for us to spend all our energy to survive. Changing fate is just an empty slogan."
"Have you ever seen a person who has lost his knees and can still stand up? If a person loses his dignity, he can't stand up anymore."
Chi Xia felt that his mouth was dry because of Pan Haili's words.
She carefully followed what she had just said and went over the lives of the Pan Haili sisters in her mind.
She found that it was just as she said, in such a poor and helpless environment, their lives really didn't seem to change much.
"That's why I help Lu Ningzhi."
Pan Haili added: "I want to be someone else's luck."
After finishing the water in the cup and her words, Pan Haili looked at Chi Xia and said, "I really don't hate you. What I said just now was just to provoke you."
"Then you achieved your goal." Chi Xia said, "I was indeed angry at the time."
Pan Haili let out a long breath, leaned her head against the headboard, turned her head and looked out the window: "I know who I should hate, I know, but I can only hate."
She quickly turned around and said, "Okay, I've said everything I need to say. You can tell your colleagues the rest in the interrogation room. I'm hungry again. Can you give me something to eat?"
"What do you want to eat?" Chi Xia said, "You can order whatever you like."
Pan Haili's eyes showed a little surprise: "Really?"
"Um."
"I want a new outfit."
Pan Haili said, "You need to wear a white skirt and go to a fancy restaurant where someone plays the violin while you eat. Officer Chi, is that okay?"
Chi Xia told the truth: "This is beyond my authority. I can help you apply for it. Before that, we may need you to do a comprehensive examination."
"Okay." Pan Haili said.
"I have one last question." Chi Xia said.
"I'm in a pretty good mood, if you ask."
"Qu Bai." Chi Xia asked: "Do you know Qu Bai?"
Pan Haili shook her head: "I don't know, I haven't heard of this name."
Chi Xia didn't ask any more questions. She went out and told Luo Xun about Pan Haili's request.
Luo Xun thought about it and called Chang Youwei again. After some bargaining, Chang Youwei finally agreed.
"Who will pay for this? Did Director Chang say anything?" Curly asked weakly.
Luo Xun couldn't help laughing and slapped him: "You don't have to pay anyway, so don't worry, go find her a suitable restaurant and we'll take her for a comprehensive check-up."
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Pan Haili changed her clothes, went to the restaurant she wanted to go to, and ate the dishes she wanted to eat.
There was only one person at her table, but there were two sets of bowls and chopsticks. During the meal, Pan Haili would occasionally put food on the other empty plate.
She also took the mirror from the hospital and placed it opposite her so that she could see herself in the mirror as soon as she looked up.
Lin Wenjue and Cao Bin went back to the police station to interrogate Tao Han, while Chi Xia and Luo Xun were watching Pan Haili at the next table.
The two of them were not able to talk, so they communicated with each other on their cell phones. Chi Xia repeated their conversation in the ward to Luo Xun.
The two of them communicated in silence, but their typing speed became faster and faster, and their eyes had to keep an eye on Pan Haili beside them.
Pan Haili was neither hurried nor slow. She ate her meal slowly and even ordered a small glass of red wine, one for herself and one for the empty seat opposite her.
After finishing the meal, she raised her glass and clinked it with the empty seat from a distance: "We two sisters can only stop here."
After drinking the red wine in one gulp, she took a deep breath and stretched out her wrist in the direction of Luo Xun and Chi Xia: "Officer, we can go now."
Luo Xun stood up and handcuffed her, then covered her with clothes. Chi Xia took her arm and went out.
When we arrived at the police station, Lin Wenjue had already interrogated Tao Han and was checking the relevant records.
"What about Lu Ningzhi? How did she react?" Chi Xia asked first.
"She doesn't seem anxious. She asked us for paper and pen and is preparing for class."
Cao Bin admired him very much: "He is as unmovable as a mountain."
"Call her out."
Cao Bin called Lu Ningzhi out, and at this time Pan Haili, handcuffed, was standing in the middle of the office.
The two women looked at each other. Chi Xia saw Lu Ningzhi frowning slightly, and the confusion in her eyes showed that she really didn't know Pan Haili.
Pan Haili smiled at her, and Lu Ningzhi even felt it a little strange, and she smiled back at her almost hastily.
"Officer Chi."
Pan Haili leaned closer to Chi Xia and said in a low voice: "Don't try. In this story, she doesn't even know I exist."
She was just that insignificant bit of luck. Although she was driven here by others, she did it willingly.
Chi Xia glanced at her and then at Lu Ningzhi, then took Pan Haili to the interrogation room.
As they turned the corridor, Lu Ningzhi asked, "Is that woman just now related to this case?"
"Which answer do you want to hear?" Luo Xun said, "Is there any difference between relevant and irrelevant?"
Lu Ningzhi stood there and thought about this question seriously. She smiled and shook her head: "I am abrupt. Officer Luo, can I leave now?"
Lin Wenjue just walked out and handed Tao Han's transcript to Luo Xun.
During the time when Luo Xun was checking the transcripts, Lu Ningzhi stood upright in front of them, with her arms folded, looking at the people in front of her with an indifferent and calm gaze.
She didn't care what Tao Han said, nor did she care what the woman had to do with the case.
All she cares about is that after today, she will be reborn.
Really, quietly.
Live her life.
