Chapter 415: The Performer Hu Wusong
Jiang Ran obediently explained everything he knew about the incident, detailing the entire sequence of events from beginning to end.The four police officers recorded everything.
Soon, backup arrived.
Just like in the morning, it was a flurry of various investigations and evidence collection.
By the time everything was finished,
several more hours had passed.
Only Jiang Ran remained inside Room 304.
Looking at the chaotic mess inside the room, he felt like crying but had no tears left.
At this moment, in the Neighbors Over Distant Relatives live stream room.
A long string of text was introducing that Military General Opera Performer.
[Hu Wusong, male, 28 years old.]
[Occupation: Opera martial male lead.]
[His father was also an opera martial male lead, so it was a case of following in his father's footsteps. His mother was a martial arts coach.]
[Therefore, under the dual guidance of his parents, Hu Wusong's opera singing skills were exquisite. Within martial male lead performances, the martial arts instruction and training his mother gave him since childhood were like adding wings to a tiger in this profession.]
[Thus, with his agile physique and handsome appearance, he easily became a famous performer in that area.]
[However, even after becoming a somewhat renowned performer, he couldn't compete with people who had connections.]
[Hu Wusong had a colleague who was also a martial male lead. But this colleague was inferior to him in appearance, vocal skills, martial arts, and other aspects. Yet, because his connections were solid enough, he often snatched opportunities that belonged to Hu Wusong.]
[Hu Wusong was naturally indignant and wanted to fight for himself.]
[But alas, his influence was too small, his voice too weak. He simply couldn't contend with that colleague of his.]
[Finally, on one occasion, the provincial authorities were selecting elites from various opera troupes across the province for an overseas performance.]
[Hu Wusong was one hundred percent eliminated. His colleague was successfully selected.]
[Hu Wusong was very disappointed. However, during the period when his colleague was away performing abroad, Hu Wusong's own opportunities to perform on stage increased.]
[It was also during this time that during one of his stage performances, he was accidentally seen by someone from a nationally famous opera troupe.]
[That opera troupe recruited promising talents from across the country and took a liking to Hu Wusong.]
[So they spoke to Hu Wusong and the head of Hu Wusong's opera troupe, saying that on a certain date, Hu Wusong should go to their troupe for an interview.]
[Faced with this hard-won opportunity, Hu Wusong was overjoyed.]
[From the moment he was notified, he began preparing for the interview. The previous oppression by that well-connected colleague was no longer on his mind.]
[Jealousy is a terrifying thing.]
[His colleague returned from the overseas performance.]
[Upon hearing about what had happened to Hu Wusong, he was shocked and simultaneously very jealous.]
[Because he also desperately wanted to join that nationally famous opera troupe. But relying on his own connections, he couldn't get in;he had to pass an interview. However, he was directly rejected during the interview and was even scolded by the judges at the time: "With such poor skills, how did you even get here?"]
[This colleague understood that Hu Wusong's natural conditions and opera skills were stronger than his, much stronger. If Hu Wusong went, he would almost certainly be selected.]
[Therefore, ever since learning about this, he was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.]
[He couldn't sleep at night.]
[Finally, he thought of a brilliant idea, a wonderful plan to prevent Hu Wusong from going.]
[He bribed a cancer patient, having him drive a car on the road Hu Wusong had to take home from work, to hit him, to cripple him.]
[When someone is meticulously plotting to harm you, it's very difficult to escape.]
[Hu Wusong was indeed hit and was rushed to the hospital by emergency services.]
[Although his life was saved, he suffered multiple fractures and injuries all over his body, requiring a very long recovery period. Consequently, he directly missed the interview opportunity with that opera troupe.]
[Not only that, after Hu Wusong was discharged from the hospital, he was in a state of long-term rehabilitation training.]
[But the results were mediocre. The doctor said it would be very difficult for him to recover to his previous physical condition.]
[After returning to the opera troupe, Hu Wusong also discovered that due to his physical condition, he could no longer take on many performance opportunities, which were taken over by his peers and juniors.]
[He was very anxious, but no matter how anxious he was, his body couldn't return to its pre-accident state.]
[Gradually, within the opera troupe, he slowly became invisible.]
[An intense sense of loss made him feel unbearable agony.]
[It was also because of this that from then on, Hu Wusong's mental state grew worse and worse.]
[He also developed a psychological illness, what is now called depression.]
[A knot of resentment in his heart that couldn't be released often left him feeling depressed.]
[And so, Hu Wusong continued to muddle along in the opera troupe while undergoing rehabilitation training.]
[Until one day, Hu Wusong accidentally learned the truth about his car accident.]
[He was furious.]
[He prepared to go settle accounts with that well-connected colleague.]
[But what he didn't expect was that his parents came out to dissuade him.]
[They told him to forget this matter, to focus on recuperating and starting a new life.]
[Hu Wusong didn't understand, but he also appreciated his parents' good intentions. Therefore, he temporarily set aside his hatred.]
[But after some time passed, he accidentally learned another truth: the reason his parents had urged him to forget this matter was because they had secretly accepted a large sum of hush money from that well-connected colleague.]
[At this point, Hu Wusong could no longer endure it.]
[He felt his parents had sold him out.]
[For a sum of money.]
[He had a huge argument with his parents. Did they really think money was more important than him?]
[His parents were initially guilty, but later their attitude also became firm.]
[Especially his father, who felt they had raised him for so long, and this could be considered him repaying them.]
[Anyway, your future as an opera martial male lead is gone. Them accepting this money is just preparing their retirement fund in advance.]
[In short, Hu Wusong was driven away in anger, storming back to his own home.]
[Although furious, he even started to feel that what his parents said seemed somewhat reasonable. He could now be considered a cripple;his future in this profession was gone.]
[So, he also planned to let the matter rest.]
[But then, the real trigger event arrived.]
[Due to Hu Wusong's physical condition, the opera troupe he belonged to fired him. No matter how Hu Wusong pleaded, his opera troupe resolutely insisted on dismissing him.]
[At this point, Hu Wusong's inner world completely collapsed.]
[In a daze, he returned from the opera troupe to his own home.]
[Back at his home, Hu Wusong felt anxious and tormented.]
[Especially when he saw his own white opera costume hanging in his house.]
[He remembered his parents' betrayal for money, his body being ruined, his future gone, and now, the opera troupe had kicked him out.]
[What was he supposed to do afterwards?]
[These people were pushing him to his death!]
[Somehow, he suddenly remembered when he was a child, around seven or eight years old, curiously asking his parents why they named him Hu Wusong?]
[His father answered him, saying it was because he really liked Wu Song and hoped Hu Wusong could be like Wu Song.]
[Later, when Hu Wusong watched the TV adaptation of Water Margin, every time he saw Wu Song appear, avenging his brother and other such scenes, he would jump for joy on the spot.]
[Hu Wusong lay on his bed, staring blankly. He thought of his childhood, his life afterwards, his teenage years, his youth, recalling every little thing, every single event.]
[There was pain, happiness, sadness, surprise.]
[On and on, until now.]
[At this point, Hu Wusong's eyes gradually grew clear, gradually grew resolute.]
[He changed into his usual white military general opera costume for performing.]
[In his hand was the red-tasseled spear he usually practiced martial arts with.]
[Alone at home, he performed a scene of Wu Song Killing His Sister-in-Law.]
[Afterwards, he drove to his parents' home.]
[Wanting to bid a final farewell to his parents.]
[As it turned out, his parents were at that very moment discussing, after their son was hit by the car, how should they spend that money? Should they have another child? After all, the main account was ruined.]
[As they were talking, they saw their son arrive, dressed in his usual opera performance attire.]
[His father saw him and said: What's wrong with you? Why are you dressed like that when you're not performing?]
[As soon as these words left his mouth, his father was stabbed to death by his spear. His mother saw this, her legs went weak with fear, and she screamed in terror. She met the same fate as his father and was also stabbed to death.]
