Chapter 436: The star of fate, destined to be lonely for life
The uncle was almost on the verge of collapse.
He tore his hair with both hands, his face full of pain.
"My wife...she...she disappeared last month!"
"I searched the whole village and went to every place I knew. I even went to her parents' home... but there was no news of her."
"I called the police and they opened a case. Unfortunately, there has been no progress."
"I'm afraid... I'm afraid that she'll be depressed, that something might happen to her!"
"Master Shen, please help me... help me find my wife. I'm willing to do anything you ask me to do!"
Shen Sangning frowned slightly: "Can you remember how you and your wife met?"
The uncle was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "In the countryside, after harvesting the land, basically nothing happens. I couldn't stay alone, and I didn't have any hobbies, so I went to the city to work for a few months."
"My wife and I met in a feed factory, and we were both assembly line workers."
"After a while, we became familiar with each other!"
Shen Sangning said with a soft “hmm”: “Do you have any photos of your wife in your phone?”
"Of course!" The uncle quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket and opened the photo album while talking: "Look, isn't my wife very beautiful? This is a photo of us taken the night we got the marriage certificate."
Shen Sangning leaned over and looked, and saw that in the photo, the uncle was hugging the air with a smile on his face.
In the live broadcast room, many viewers also saw the photo and gasped.
[This uncle...is he hallucinating? Where is the woman in this photo? ]
[I guess he doesn't have a wife at all. It's all just his fantasy.]
[He must have mental problems. Maybe everything he said today was made up by him! ]
[It’s fine if it’s made up, at least no one died because of him...]
The comments were full of discussion. Shen Sangning frowned and said softly, "Uncle, what happened on the day you went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage certificate?"
"Ah?" The uncle's eyes were blank, and even a moment of emptiness appeared. He tried hard to think, but he couldn't remember at all.
"I...I don't remember...I...can't remember..."
The uncle held his head with both hands, trying hard to recall the past, his facial expression distorted by pain.
"I really can't remember. That day was like being covered by a layer of fog. My mind was blank."
After Shen Sangning pondered for a moment, she guided him and said, "Uncle, don't worry, let's recall together. After you got the marriage certificate, did they ask you for a gift?"
"Dowry?" The uncle shook his head. "No, she didn't tell her family when we got the marriage certificate. She didn't want a dowry either..."
"Then what did you do? Did you buy something to give to the other person? Or a token of love or something?" Shen Sangning continued to guide the uncle's recollections.
The uncle raised his head, his eyes full of helplessness and confusion, "I...I...By the way, after we got the marriage certificate, I took her to the jewelry store. I bought her jewelry!"
Shen Sangning paused, walked to the uncle, put a hand on his shoulder, and continued to ask: "Did anything unexpected happen when you were buying jewelry? For example, did you see someone wearing a hood..."
"Handgear?..." The uncle felt a warm sensation coming from his shoulder, and some images appeared before his eyes like slides.
A minute later, the uncle seemed to have been drained of all his strength and leaned weakly on the back of the chair.
He slowly picked up the phone he was holding tightly and looked at the photo.
The photo was taken on the night we got our license...
He didn't know how many times he had seen this photo.
But this time, the wife in the photo was gone. The eight dishes on the table were gone. There was only a hard steamed bun!
"I... I remember..." the uncle choked up and said, "On the day we got the certificate... we... we encountered a group of robbers who robbed a gold shop..."
"The police arrived very quickly. My wife...she...she was taken hostage by the robbers. Unfortunately...she was shot to death."
"She died right next to me...looking at me and smiling..." the uncle muttered in despair.
He loves his wife very much, but he still can't escape his fate...
The departure of his wife, coupled with various other reasons, also caused the uncle to become mentally ill.
He always feels that his wife is still here and will give birth to a baby for him.
The uncle has been trapped here and cannot get out, it's an endless loop.
Over the years, he had no idea how many times he had gone to the hospital and the police station.
Shen Sangning sighed: "The fate of being a star of misfortune is indeed very painful. It has no effect on the person himself, but it is extremely evil to the people around him. This is not your fault, it's a fate problem."
"I can help you change your fate, just go back..."
It took the uncle a long time to calm down.
The corners of his lips were curled with bitterness: "Everyone who has brought warmth and hope to my life eventually left me, and in such a tragic way."
In the past, whenever he was lying alone in bed late at night, those painful scenes would keep appearing in his mind.
The village chief's kind smile to him seemed still before his eyes, but in the blink of an eye he fell from the roof and his life was gone in an instant.
The kind-hearted aunt's concerned look dimmed forever the moment the dilapidated temple collapsed.
His love, her gentle words still echoed in his ears, but now only cold memories remained.
The uncle once asked himself painfully, is he really a disaster? Is his existence itself a sin?
He longed for love and company, but every time he longed for it, it was like a curse, bringing misfortune to those close to him.
He began to fear contact with people, afraid to see the fear and avoidance in their eyes.
Whenever someone showed him a little kindness, his inner fear would instantly surge up. He was afraid to accept that kindness because he didn't know if this would be the beginning of another tragedy.
This often made him fall into deep self-loathing, feeling that he did not deserve happiness, friends and family. This loneliness and pain was like a sharp knife, cutting his heart again and again, making him bleed.
This kind of suppressed emotion for a long time caused the uncle to completely collapse mentally.
Little did he know that eight years had passed since the day he got the marriage certificate.
He kept replaying that memory...
Many villagers sympathized with him, but it was just sympathy in their hearts.
No one dared to approach him...
Because they are afraid of being affected.
And at that time, the uncle was really crazy.
If anyone says his wife is dead, he will beat them up...
