316 Gentle Township 18

Dormant for five years, only to avenge one day.

On this night, Ah Liang finally tore off all the disguise she hated.

After that, it was a massacre.

She was not in a hurry to kill them, but walked in front of them one by one, stacking their incriminating evidence one by one.

Ah Liang glanced at the three sitting in the corner, she was vigilant against the three of them.

Tonight was originally the most perfect slaughter scene, but now there are three more uninvited guests.

She was worried that the three of them would suddenly help save them, because she had observed the three of them secretly before, and the three of them hardly touched the chopsticks. .

Shouldn't it be the bitch who made trouble.

But when she saw the expressions of the three of them, she was stunned for a moment.

Among the three, two looked at him earnestly. Only the young man sitting next to him holding a dog's expression is still introverted, and there is no change.

The two girls clenched their fists and stared at themselves, so they almost didn't say "Come on".

A Liang "?"

Is your brain sick?

Are these two women also victims?

But it seems that the man next to him is not.

But just make sure they didn't want to stop herself, they'll talk later, now she has business to do.

Ah Liang retracted her gaze, and she shuttled through the bewildered crowd for a while, and soon found the next person she was looking for.

The man was already shivering with fright now. When he saw Ah Liang approaching, the man staggered to his knees on the ground and kept kowtowing.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong, don't kill me, I was wrong."

Ah Liang squatted down and looked at the man's face full of fear and embarrassment, with disgust flashing in her eyes, "You're wrong, then tell me, what's wrong with you?"

The men slapped their heads one by one, "I, I shouldn't have hit Tingting, let alone Panpan. It's all my fault. If I cared more about them, they wouldn't throw themselves into the well. It's all my fault."

"Suicide by throwing into the well?!" A Liang suddenly raised her hand and dropped it heavily, and the sharp beer bottle immediately plunged into the man's arm. "You repeat, how did they die?!"

The man screamed in pain.

Hatred flashed in Ah Liang's eyes, she grabbed the beer bottle and stirred it vigorously, and when she pulled it out, some glass balls remained deep in the man's wound.

"To commit suicide by throwing herself into a well? How could Tingting commit suicide by throwing herself into a well?! If she didn't want to live, she would have committed suicide long ago!" Ah Liang clenched the man's wound and pressed it hard, the man turned pale in pain and screamed in his mouth. Cut through the night sky like slaughtering a pig.

"I have already investigated it clearly. It was you, and the whole village, that killed Tingting and Panpan!"

The man wearing the black and red pattern looked up at the woman, "No, no, listen to my explanation, it was an accident."

"If she hadn't covered your escape, we wouldn't have locked her up, and the accident could have never happened."

A Liang picked up a whole beer bottle and smashed it on the man's forehead. The beer bottle was torn apart, and blood was pouring out of the man's forehead.

The man's head was buzzing suddenly, and the whites of his eyes rolled and he fainted.

Without blinking, Ah Liang took a bottle of white wine from the side and poured it on the man's wound and face.

The man was instantly awakened by pain, and looked up at Ah Liang with a pale face.

"I'll give you a chance to live, tell me, what day is today?"

The corners of the man's lips were blue and purple, "Isn't it your birthday?"

Ah Liang "It's not my birthday, guess what."

Man "Is that... Tingting's birthday?"

A Liang "No, you have to guess."

Man "Panpan's birthday?"

A Liang sneered, "I'll give you one last chance."

The man's face was as white as a plaster cast, and death was just an instant, but this long waiting for death made it very difficult. "Is...my and Tingting's wedding anniversary?"

"Bah," A Liang spat at the man's face, "You are also worthy of celebrating your wedding anniversary with Tingting."

"Today is Tingting's death day!" A-Jing looked down at the man from a high place, "You actually forgot this kind of day, damn it."

The man looked at Ah Liang in horror, with despair written all over his face.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but his voice couldn't come out because he was afraid.

He wanted to escape, but his legs were starting to weaken.

Leaning on the back leg of the table, he groped his hands frantically on the ground, hoping to find something he could use for self-defense.

But all in vain.

What he touched, except for the muddy blood all over the ground, was the corpse that had not completely softened.

He only saw a flash of cold light in front of him, and his neck was actually hot.

The man instinctively touched his neck, and the moment his hand touched his neck, he was immediately dyed red.

Blood spurted from the wound, and he wanted to cover his neck, but no matter how hard he tried, it was in vain.

He watched helplessly as blood flowed from his neck, fell onto his new clothes, rolled into the ground along the lines of the new clothes, and slid into the dirt.

A Liang

With a smile, "Is the mourning clothes I made for you still appropriate?"

The man's eyes gradually became slack, and finally lost his life in the woman's laughter.

After solving Huang Wei, Ah Liang finally came to the two tables of the traffickers.

This is the last person she packs up.

She looked around inside these traffickers, then reached out and grabbed the woman who started the toast.

The woman had long been frightened. Before Ah Liang could say anything, she hurriedly said, "I don't know that Tingting you mentioned. I never sold her. It was someone else who did it, not me."

"I know it's not you, but you should be damned. You shouldn't arrest me, let alone sell me here. If you didn't arrest me, I wouldn't stand here and kill so many people today. It's you, first-hand contributed to my sin."

The woman waved her hand, "No, no, no, but people, you kill people."

"Yes, I killed people. I confess my own sins. So you have to confess your own sins."

"How many girls' lives have you ruined? Maybe some of them, like me, have gone down the road of no return. Do you have children?"

The woman doesn't know what Ah Liang wants to do. In this situation, even if she has children, she has to say that she has no children, "No no no, I have no children."

"Really," A Liang felt a little regretful, "if you have children, when your sins are punished on the children, you will know what you have done. Even if I kill you now, you will not feel it. You have done something wrong. You are such people with no conscience, and you don't understand at all. If you want to ask why, it is because you are not human at all. You people, if you are human, you deserve to be a beast, locked up in a In a filthy shack, endure the fate of beatings and even killings anytime, anywhere."

"I bless you, all of you, all of you, in the future you will become carefree pigs. You will be locked up forever and be beaten daily. Without freedom, without dignity, without happiness, you It's just a beast!"

Saying that, the woman picked up the knife and killed the woman directly. Then came the others, her sharp weapon falling down became more and more skillful and faster.

With a pair of fifty, she stood on the ceiling of combat power.

"And you." After dealing with these people, A Liang looked at the dead and wounded people on the ground again. "Since you want your son so much, then I will bless you. I wish you all to be born in a happy place. In the village where you live, you will become tender women, and the child born from your union with a man will definitely be a boy."

"And you, aren't you afraid of getting old? I bless you, you will never really grow old. When you reach a certain age, you will become children again and continue to live a life."

"By the way, I remember. I remember when we were all children, one of the things we wanted to do most was to grow up. So I bless you, you don't have to enjoy childhood, you can grow up as quickly as you want. Then start a family, have children and raise children.”

"You will live in that village forever and ever, with these pigs, and enjoy the joy of being in the same family for four generations."

"I also gave this village a nice name, called Wenrou Township."

"Does it sound good?"

Ah Liang laughed twice, "Okay, it's almost time to send you to the birth canal."

She said, grabbed a random person on the ground full of corpses, and dragged it to the abandoned school next door.

The three players huddled in the corner looked at each other.

Li Cancan, "The birth canal... Speaking of which, if you have to use a metaphor, that well really looks a bit like it."

Sun Ning, "So the well becomes the essence? The reason why the corpse disappears is because it is not the well, but the birth canal. When the corpse enters, it means a new life."

"The children disappeared one by one because she said there was no childhood. Missing at the age of five or six is ​​not a disappearance, but a fast adult, just needs a suitable opportunity to come back."

They didn't follow Ah Liang to see the school, because they already knew what Ah Liang would do with these corpses.

After a while, A Liang returned here and continued to drag the next body to school.

At this time, the clothes on Ah Liang's body had been dyed bright red completely, which looked like a red dress from a distance.

She was tirelessly dragging corpse after corpse.

However, she was a woman after all, and with the numerous corpses, several corpses remained at the scene after a few hours.

Just when Ah Liang was about to continue dragging the next corpse, a person in the pile of corpses suddenly stood up and ran.

But the effect of the medicine on him has not dissipated, and he ran very embarrassedly and slowly.

But Ah Liang didn't have the strength at this time. The two of you were chasing after me, but they were actually very weak.

A Liang picked up a beer bottle from the ground, and the man was running around on the ground.

Seeing Ah Liang chasing after him, the sharp beer bottle stabbed into the man's body. The man was so shocked that he picked up a thermos from the side like a life-saving straw, and poured it on Ah Liang's face.

In an instant, A Liang's screams sounded.

Li Cancan wanted to help, but was stopped by Sun Ning.

Li Cancan looked at Sun Ning incomprehensibly, and heard Sun Ning say in a deep voice, "This is her own revenge, don't disturb her."

The screams came one after another, but Ah Liang did not

There is to give up the attack.

While covering her pain, she chased the man.

The man stumbled into the school, and when he saw the scene in the well, his whole body suddenly collapsed to the ground.

In the small dry well, each corpse was folded and thrown into the well in a strange posture. Some of their identities were folded from their backs, and some of their eyes were still wide open, so they looked upwards and stared straight at the man.

The man touched the ground in a panic, touched and touched, and suddenly touched something with edges and edges.

He picked it up and looked at it, and was so frightened that he let go of the thing in his hand.

That's a tablet.

Panpan's tablet.

The tablet fell into the well, and soon slipped through the gap in the corpse and fell into it.

The man was about to escape, but Ah Liang had already covered her face and chased after him.

One of her eyes was splattered, and the other eye also had some wounds.

In this way, she found the man who was frightened and stupefied in a bit of embarrassment and pain. Ah Liang, who had long been red-eyed, had already ignored the pain in her body, and now she only had one obsession.

Kill, take revenge!

After a while, the man fell to the ground, unable to move.

Ah Liang's face was already red and swollen, and when the hot water was poured down, her face would fester in a short time.

But Ah Liang didn't have time to worry about it. She didn't notice that there was one less tablet, so she threw the dead man into the well.

Then, enduring the discomfort and severe pain, she threw all the corpses into the well.

It was not until the last body was thrown into the well that Ah Liang went to the tablet.

However, she only found Tingting's tablet.

Panpan's tablet is gone.

"Panpan, Panpan, where are you?" At this time, A Liang was already in a trance, and her eyes and expressions were a little abnormal.

She knelt on the ground in a panic, touched every inch of the ground, and shouted while rummaging, "Panpan, where are you, come out quickly. Let's not play hide and seek, it's over, come out quickly, my aunt will take you and Mom went home together, we went home. Don't you like issuing cards? Aunt bought you a lot of issuing cards, pink, blue, whatever you like, aunt will buy you whatever you like. Come on out."

The three stood outside the school silently watching the scene in front of them.

Sun Ning, "Xin Shen, in the deserted village, what Ah Liang and Tingting are looking for is not a card, but a tablet for Panpan?"

"It's just that one of them can't see, hear, can't speak, and the other is a little mentally ill. They only remember the issuing card in this sentence, so they are looking for the issuing card?"

"I'm thinking about this right now, too."

Sun Ning, "If it's a tablet, should we go to the lonely well in the deserted village to find it? But how do we get to the deserted village?"

Baili Xin thought for two seconds, silently walked in front of Ah Liang, and handed the card to Ah Liang.

A Liang, who was rummaging through Panpan, was suddenly stunned when she saw the card in Bailishin's hand, and quickly grabbed it from his hand and held it in her arms like a treasure, "Issue, it's a card, Panpan's card is issued. ."

"Panpan found it, great."

"Panpan, let's go, take mom, let's go to a nice place where no one disturbs us."

Ah Liang said so, and left with Tingting's tablet and Panpan's card.

On the way, she sometimes sang, sometimes laughed, walked crookedly, just wandered out of the village and walked towards the woods.

Seeing this, Bai Lixin said, "Let's go, let's follow her!"

The three set off immediately and quickly followed behind Ah Liang.

Ah Liang seemed to be walking slowly, but they found it was very difficult when they chased. People who seem to be close at hand, but can't catch up no matter how, there is always a long distance between them.

The three of them could only follow so closely, and got into the mist.

Studio.

Heartwarming.

The ending evokes comfort.

It's no wonder that Panpan will appear in Wenrou Township by herself, because the tablet has accidentally fallen into the well. No, it shouldn't be called the well, it should be called the birth canal. This well leads to Wenrou Township, so Panpan also follows.

finally, I understand. So those pigs are the abducted sellers. In their lifetime, they sold people like animals, so A Liang cursed them, and in the next life, they will also become animals, driven by humans every day.

What kind of curse, that's called blessing, A Liang said, blessing.

Walk, bless, bless.

All the doubts that I didn't understand before were solved. Who is playing Panpan's mother in Gentle Township?

Most likely it is Panpan's own father.

Oh yes yes yes. Panpan's body was found on the mountain, so what happened? And how Tingting died, we don't know yet.

Hiss, this dungeon suddenly doesn't want Xin Shen to deal with the people in Wenrou Township. What should I do? If Xin Shen takes action, the villain will kill the big boss, and then the dungeon will be rescued. But for the dungeon, Ah Liang, who makes everything, is the villain's big boss. I don't want to see her die, this is the most distressed boss I've ever had.

Let's see how Xin Shen does it. If it is the most distressed boss you have ever encountered, it may also be the most distressed boss Xin Shen has ever encountered. Maybe he will handle it differently. But if Xinshen's handling makes you dissatisfied, don't blame him for it.

I know, no, I just feel sorry for these girls.

they follow

They walked with the woman in front for a while, and the further they went, the bigger the fog became. As they walked, they lost the figure of Ah Liang.

The three of them were bumping around in the thick fog for an unknown amount of time before the thick fog in front of the three finally dissipated with the cubs calling out one after another.

After coming out of the thick fog, the three were stunned for a moment.

Because their position at this time is not at the foot of the mountain, but on the mountainside.

Li Cancan thought of something, and quickly ran to the top of the mountain to look down. When she saw the familiar village at the foot of the mountain, her eyes flashed blankly, "It's Wenrou Township, we're back."

Sun Ning and Bai Lixin followed. They stood firm on the top of the mountain just now, and Li Cancan hurriedly shouted, "Xin Shen, Sun Ning, we have gone the wrong way. Let's go back, okay? We have to find Ah Liang, we have to help help her."

Bai Lixin "We can't go back to the fog now. It's because we want to help Ah Liang that we have to go back to Wenrou Township first."

Li Cancan "Why?"

Bai Lixin "The reason why Ah Liang and Tingting's souls have not been liberated is because they have never found Panpan. We have to bring Panpan back to them. What they really want is not to issue cards or tablets, but to Panpan herself. Now Panpan is in the town of Wenrou, and we have to bring Panpan to the two of them."

After he finished speaking, his long eyelashes flickered slightly, covering his gloomy eyes.

He remembered Panpan's wish.

Panpan has been staying in Wenrou Township. On the one hand, it may be because he cannot leave, and on the other hand, it is probably because he is unwilling to face his mother and aunt.

It can be seen from Panpan's wishes and the communication with Panpan at that time that Panpan always believed that her birth was a sin.

If it weren't for her existence, perhaps her mother would have left her father long ago, and perhaps her mother would not have suffered a lot of inhuman torture.

She saw herself as a sin, the sin of hurting her mother.

So she would rather disappear from this world herself than let her mother not marry her father.

It may be difficult for her to leave with such a hope.

unless……

A flash of light flashed in his mind, and Bai Lixin's eyes suddenly fell on Li Cancan and Sun Ning.

He looked up and down the two of them, his eyes thoughtful.

Li Cancan was confused by Bai Lixin, as was Sun Ning.

The two looked at each other blankly, and then looked at Bailishin in unison.

Bai Lixin looked at Wenrou Township, and asked, "You two, can you act?"

Li Cancan "Huh?"

Sun Ning "Huh?"

What?

acting?

What does Xin Shen want to do?

Bai Lixin "I am afraid that Panpan will only be willing to leave Wenrou Township after unraveling the knot in her heart. I suddenly feel that the two of you are, um... very similar to Liang Tingting and A Liang."

"Since Panpan doesn't want Liang Tingting to marry Huang Wei, then we won't let her marry Huang Wei."

"Time is irreversible. How can things go back in time. Panpan's wish cannot be realized, but it is possible."

Sun Ning probably understood what Bailishin meant, "But how to make it happen?"

"What if it's in a dream? Go down the mountain, gather all the players, and prepare the sweetest dream for Panpan."

Panpan was awakened by the sound of firecrackers.

She frowned and rubbed her eyes, when she heard the hustle and bustle outside.

The gongs and drums were loud, and the firecrackers were blaring.

"Worship heaven and earth!"

Panpan woke up instantly.

Is someone getting married outside?

No, why is the sound of marriage so close to my home?

No one dares to marry in their house.

Panpan rubbed her eyes and walked out of the door, suddenly stunned by the scene in front of her.

The yard was full of people.

In the middle of the yard stood a man and woman in red wedding dresses. The woman is wearing a hijab, the man is wearing a big hat, and the red wedding room with a standing collar blocks his face and cannot see his face.

Outside the yard are villagers watching the lively, and from time to time you can hear the conversation of the villagers.

"This pair is good, I really envy Ah Wei for marrying such a good wife."

"Isn't it? They are college students who came to teach, they are literate, and they are beautiful. Look at this ass, you can definitely have a son."

"Awei is very lucky. He just died of a daughter-in-law, and he can find such a good one again."

"Shh, be quiet, the bride doesn't know that there is another one in front of Ah Wei."

Panpan froze at the door, staring blankly at the couple who were getting married.

In the corner of the wall stood a sign with a few words written on it.

Groom Huang Wei

Bride Liang Tingting

Happy newlyweds.

Panpan's pupils are wide open "!!!"

Is this the wedding scene of father and mother? !

No, you can't get married, you won't be happy when you get married!

Mom, can't get this married!

Panpan hurried to the bride, she wanted to pull off the bride's red hijab and tell her mother to escape quickly.

But she was too short to reach the red hijab.

She could only grab the bride's hand and shake it vigorously, shouting, "Mom, mom, don't marry him, don't marry him!"

But no matter how she shouts, the bride doesn't listen

Without Panpan's voice, it was as if Panpan didn't exist.

does not exist?

Panpan suddenly froze.

She took two steps back blankly, looking at the wedding scene that was still following the steps in front of her.

Yes, at this time, my mother just got married and hadn't given birth to me yet. How could I appear? Why would you persuade your mother to leave?

She looked at the two people who had begun to prepare to worship, and looked at the faces of the group of people who joined in the fun.

Full of despair.

"No, don't get married. Who will save my mother," Panpan cried helplessly, "who will save my mother, aunt, aunt, come out quickly, come out and save my mother, woo woo woo Woo, aunt, aunt!"

"This marriage can't be married!"

Just when Panpan was about to fall into despair, a fierce female voice suddenly interrupted the wedding.

The voice Panpan was very familiar, and she excitedly looked towards the door, her eyes full of hope.

It's my aunt's voice, it's my aunt's voice.

Soon, a voice slammed away from behind the crowd.

The figure was extremely fast. She rushed to the front and grabbed the wrist of the married woman. Before everyone could react, she grabbed the bride and passed through the crowd and ran away.

Panpan covered her mouth in shock, too excited to speak.

Aunt is here!

She saved mommy!

Great, hahaha, aunt is mighty! Long live Auntie!

When the two women ran far away, everyone could react.

I don't know who shouted, "The bride ran away, hurry up!"

After this shout, everyone rushed towards the outside.

Panpan was afraid that they would be caught up, so she followed suit.

Soon, she saw the two slender and flexible figures running into the green mountain quickly.

Much faster than the group behind.

No matter how hard the people behind him chase him, they won't be able to catch up.

Soon, the two figures merged into the green mountain and disappeared.

People in the village stomped their feet.

"Damn, the duck just flew like this when it reached its mouth."

"How could it be taken away, and it was successful, it's unreasonable."

"We finally had a big happy event in our village, and it's gone."

"Hey, it's scattered, and the bride is gone, so what's the knot?"

"Awei, you are not lucky. It seems that you are not worthy of this teacher Tingting, and God will take her back. Okay, Awei, go back to your own single life, and don't come out again. Huo Huo is someone else."

The groom stomped his feet in anger and went back to the room angrily.

Panpan looked at the crowd gradually dispersed, picked up a piece of fireworks and firecrackers from the ground and threw them in the corner.

The sky above her head was still bright. She looked at the sky and then at the immersed yard, and muttered, "Today's dream is so real, it's just like the real thing."

After speaking, she stretched and went back to her room to sleep.

………………

The next day, when the first ray of sunlight shone in the house, Panpan slowly opened her eyes.

After she got up, she put on her clothes quickly, then tied two beautiful pigtails to herself, and finally stepped on the high bench and started to wash her face.

When it was all done, Panpan patted the girl in the mirror on the face, holding her cheeks and started to recall the dream last night.

It was a good dream last night. My aunt rescued my mother from the fire pit. The two of them looked so free and easy and happy when they were running towards the mountain.

It would be nice if the aunt really took mom away.

Thinking of this, Panpan, who was originally happy, felt a little lost in an instant.

But soon she regained her composure.

She walked out of the room and came to the courtyard.

It was quiet in the yard just now, and there were no firecrackers or scraps of paper.

They are all their own dreams.

Panpan laughed at himself and turned back to the room.

But when she turned around, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a scrap of paper in the trash.

Panpan's breathing stopped for a beat.

She quickly took out the scraps of paper in the basket, and was shocked to find that it was the scraps of paper from the dream last night.

Why do the scraps of paper in the dream appear in the current home? !

Just when Panpan was a little shocked, there was a knock on the door outside.

Panpan carefully put the scraps of paper into his pocket before walking to the gate, opening the courtyard door and looking outside.

Outside the courtyard gate, stood the good-looking brother and the two beautiful sisters.

"Why did you come to my house so early? What do you want to do?" Panpan was a little impatient, "I've told you everything you want to know, can you stop running to my house in the future?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm here to tell you good news."

Panpan "What good news, I found the card?"

The good-looking brother nodded, "Yes, I found it, but apart from this, there is good news."

The young man's words aroused Panpan's curiosity, "What good news?"

Bai Lixin "We entered the past through the fog, and then we found A Liang before your parents got married and told A Liang something. Later, A Liang rushed over.

Their wedding scene, took your mother away. At that time, they were running so fast that the villagers couldn't catch up no matter how hard they tried to catch up. In the end, they could only watch angrily as Ah Liang took your mother away, so your father and your mother were not married at that time. "

Panpan was stunned on the spot.

After getting married, my aunt robbed the relatives, rushed into the mountains, and took them away.

Isn't this the dream she had last night? !

Panpan's voice rose unconsciously, "What you said is true?! Did you really do it?"

But then she calmed down again, "If you did it, why would I still exist? If my mother didn't marry my father, I shouldn't exist."

The beautiful sister who had been silent beside the young man suddenly said, "It may be because the influence is gradual, because you are conscious and spiritual, so it disappears very slowly. Those unconscious things, such as photos, may be gone. ."

After hearing this, Pan Pan immediately ran away, rushing straight towards the main house.

She glanced at the wall first, and the place where the family portrait should have been hung is now a picture of a blessed doll.

After thinking for a while, she rushed into her bedroom and opened the locked box.

The books and books she got from Bai Lixin were gone!

The lock was intact and certainly not stolen.

So, the impact really started!

It turns out that my aunt really saved my mother!

Panpan danced with joy in an instant, and she circled in circles excitedly, "Great, my mother was rescued by my aunt, great, great."

"By the way, Panpan." Li Cancan said softly, "Do you want to see your mother and your aunt?"

"Do you want to see them again before you disappear?"

Panpan suddenly stopped, she looked at the three of them tangled, and pointed to herself, "But I look a little ugly."

Li Cancan "How can you be ugly, you are beautiful."

Panpan was suddenly a little hard to say, "I look good in this village, because this village has its own beauty effect, but I look ugly before I die."

Li Cancan, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly stopped.

She thought of the broken corpse.

After two seconds of silence, she continued, "That's why you don't want to leave this village? Are you afraid that your aunt and mother don't like you when they see you like this?"

Panpan nodded, then quickly shook his head, "I'm afraid to scare them, but I really hope my mother didn't give birth to me in the first place."

Li Cancan squatted down and said softly, "Panpan, in fact, we found your body on the mountain. But we are not afraid, can you tell my sister what happened to you at that time?"

Panpan pursed her lips hard, and after thinking for two seconds, she made up her mind and said, "At that time, my aunt was gone, and my mother was gone. I asked my father where my mother went, and my father said that my mother got lost in the mountains."

"So I went up the mountain by myself to find my mother. As a result, I walked halfway up the mountain and met a pack of wolves."

"They're hungry and staring at me like that..."
