"But he also said, I'm your escape. But the fate of the tarot can witness, don, I won't give up, some won't." Because of excitement, I unconsciously improve the noise, the outdoor park in empty from far away, have echo layered, like the ripples of water wave mu mesons ran to: "I won't give up, never..." 

The sudden family is my unexpected storm. 

At two o 'clock in the afternoon, I go to bed in a daze, heard someone knocking at the door. In He Ma, dad downstairs to find I have something, let me get down. Stumble when He Ma said these words, voice, and didn't dare to see me. Say that finish words immediately took the door downstairs. I sat on the bed slightly stunned. Today early in the morning after I get home, I'm sleepy to fall asleep. But again how confused, the in the mind still have a bad feeling. 

Dad usually seldom at home during the day, maybe, I didn't come home last night, he know? If so, nothing is without a lot of breath "explanations". 

Wait me to wash up and put on comfortable household to take down, but she didn't expect to see how mother sitting in the living room has a face of positive color, I was aware of the gravity of the situation, nearly guiltily at the mother hurriedly removed the line of sight. 

On both sides of the sofa, sit to my parents and Han Bobo respectively, and jin peng, since saw I went downstairs, I have been to wink at me. But what your want to express, but I totally guessing. 

"Good Han Bobo!" 

Han Bobo sitting on the sofa, he nodded politely, not many words. 

"Mom, how do you come back? Not to say that the Venice, the weather is very good? How much for a few days?" I crustily skin of head heaped up a face of smile beside mom sat down, and close to her arms around her neck as usual. 

Mom saw my one eye, patted me on the face: "again? Don't know what to play with my baby daughter play out how wrong. Mom just hate that I do you don't have the wings, cannot fly back immediately. Have to wait more than an hour at the airport... 

"Line line, don't say that." Dad waved and took a newspaper from on the tea table before sofa threw to me "you give me see!" 

I smile a frozen, sad and whispered nervously: "what is it? So fierce!" Want to know, since the childhood, my parents are all to me every love pang, has never been so rude to me for anything. 

Newspapers in the corner of wiping my face light fell on the ground, Han Jinpeng gently cough a cry, with implicit worried eyes motioned for me to pick up the newspaper. 

Looked at the mother again, I found she didn't want to help me, have to bend to picked up the newspaper. Positive political news, is a country with a national fire is not quenched, and killed several soldiers. But on the other side... 

Open recreational edition, headlines of color images, impressively is don and I, and photographs of the video, it was last night tang took my hand, separately on the grounds of the crowded crowd. Because of the Angle, don and I on the photo looks very close. And I look at that time, also is extremely sweet. 

"ChuShi daughter empathy new sweetheart, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn festival tryst lover" fourteen bold black font, oblique accounted for one 7 of the page, eye-catching. As for what is the best of emotional content can. Should put me into a rich girl so lonesome, dissolute life. 

"I want to listen to see, what's your explanation!" Dad smoking his pipe, sharp eyes light, like looking directly into my heart. 

"Uncle, these entertainment reporters are radical, wild caught something, embellish......" Jin peng from Han Bobo standing behind him, apparently to help me to speak, but things did not finish was stopped by his father, "said jin peng, what is up, and other adults over again say." 

"But..." 

"Line, jin peng!" I squeezed out a smile, "dad, thank you! But... this photo is true, but text descriptions, completely is wulitou nonsense, I refused to explain." 

Mom a listen to, with a frown: "good, that we can know that this can take my baby daughter by the hand, and let her missing a night person, exactly is who?" 

Missing a night? When they are not at home last night, when I returned home, only He Ma up to make breakfast... He Ma?

       It was eight o'clock the next morning beforeFrank's breakfast was brought to him.

　　``I am sorry you have had to wait,'' the housekeepersaid, as she appeared at the door with a cupof coffee and a plate of beefsteak and toast, ``Icouldn't come up before.''

　　``Have the men gone away?'' said Frank.

　　``Yes.''

　　``Then I have something to tell you. I learnedsomething about myself last night. I was in thecloset, and heard the man who brought me here talkingto another person. May I tell you the story?''

　　``If you think it will do any good,'' said thehousekeeper, but I can't help you if that is what you want.''

　　He told the whole story. As he proceeded, thehousekeeper betrayed increased, almost eager interest,and from time to time asked him questions inparticular as to the personal appearance of JohnWade. When Frank had described him as well ashe could, she said, in an excited manner:

　　``Yes, it is--it must be the same man.''

　　``The same man!'' repeated our hero, in surprise.

　　``Do you know anything about him?''

　　``I know that he is a wicked man. I am afraidthat I have helped him carry out his wicked plan,but I did not know it at the time, or I never wouldhave given my consent.''

　　``I don't understand you,'' said our hero, puzzled.

　　``Will you tell me what you mean?''

　　``Fourteen years ago I was very poor--poor andsick besides. My husband had died, leaving me nothingbut the care of a young infant, whom it wasnecessary for me to support besides myself.

　　Enfeebled by sickness, I was able to earn but little,but we lived in a wretched room in a crowdedtenement house. My infant boy was taken sick and died.

　　As I sat sorrowfully beside the bed on which he laydead, I heard a knock at the door. I opened it, andadmitted a man whom I afterward learned to beJohn Wade. He very soon explained his errand. Heagreed to take my poor boy, and pay all the expensesof his burial in Greenwood Cemetery, provided Iwould not object to any of his arrangements. Hewas willing besides to pay me two hundred dollarsfor the relief of my necessities. Though I wasalmost beside myself with grief for my child's loss,and though this was a very favorable proposal, Ihesitated. I could not understand why a strangershould make me such an offer. I asked him the reason.''

　　`` `You ask too much,' he answered, appearingannoyed. `I have made you a fair offer. Will you acceptit, or will you leave your child to have a pauper'sfuneral?'

　　``That consideration decided me. For my child'ssake I agreed to his proposal, and forebore to questionhim further. He provided a handsome rosewoodcasket for my dear child, but upon the silverplate was inscribed a name that was strange to me--the name of Francis Wharton.''

　　``Francis Wharton!'' exclaimed Frank.

　　``I was too weak and sorrowful to makeopposition, and my baby was buried as Francis Wharton.

　　Not only this, but a monument is erected over himat Greenwood, which bears this name.''

　　She proceeded after a pause:

　　``I did not then understand his object. Your storymakes it clear. I think that you are that FrancisWharton, under whose name my boy was buried.''

　　``How strange!'' said Frank, thoughtfully. ``Icannot realize it. But how did you know the name ofthe man who called upon you?''

　　``A card slipped from his pocket, which I securedwithout his knowledge.''

　　``How fortunate that I met you,'' said Frank. ``Imean to let Mr. Wharton know all that I havelearned, and then he shall decide whether he willrecognize me or not as his grandson.''

　　``I have been the means of helping to deprive youof your just rights, though unconsciously. Now thatI know the wicked conspiracy in which I assisted, Iwill help undo the work.''

　　``Thank you,'' said Frank. ``The first thing is toget out of this place.''

　　``I cannot open the door of your room. They donot trust me with the key.''

　　``The windows are not very high from the ground.

　　I can get down from the outside.''

　　``I will bring you a clothesline and a hatchet.''

　　Frank received them with exultation.

　　``Before I attempt to escape,'' he said, ``tell mewhere I can meet you in New York. I want you togo with me to Mr. Wharton's. I shall need you toconfirm my story.''

　　``I will meet you to-morrow at No. 15 B--Street.''

　　``Then we shall meet to-morrow. What shall Icall your name?''

　　``Mrs. Parker.''

　　``Thank you. I will get away as quickly aspossible, and when we are in the city we will talk overour future plans.''

　　With the help of the hatchet, Frank soon demolishedthe lower part of the window. Fastening therope to the bedstead, he got out of the window andsafely descended to the ground.

　　A long and fatiguing walk lay before him. Butat last he reached the cars, and half an hour laterthe ferry at Jersey City.

　　Frank thought himself out of danger for the timebeing, but he was mistaken.

　　Standing on the deck of the ferryboat, and lookingback to the pier from which he had just started, hemet the glance of a man who had intended to takethe same boat, but had reached the pier just toolate. His heart beat quicker when he recognized inthe belated passenger his late jailer, Nathan Graves.

　　Carried away by his rage and disappointment,Nathan Graves clenched his fist and shook it at hisreceding victim.

　　Our hero walked into the cabin. He wanted achance to deliberate. He knew that Nathan Graveswould follow him by the next boat, and it wasimportant that he should not find him. Where was heto go?

　　Fifteen minutes after Frank set foot on the pier,his enemy also landed. But now the difficult partof the pursuit began. He had absolutely no clew asto the direction which Frank had taken.

　　For an hour and a half he walked the streets inthe immediate neighborhood of the square, but hislabor was without reward. Not a glimpse could hecatch of his late prisoner.

　　``I suppose I must go to see Mr. Wade,'' he at lastreluctantly decided. ``He may be angry, but he can'tblame me. I did my best. I couldn't stand guardover the young rascal all day.''

　　The address which the housekeeper had givenFrank was that of a policeman's family in whichshe was at one time a boarder. On giving his reference,he was hospitably received, and succeeded inmaking arrangements for a temporary residence.

　　About seven o'clock Mrs. Parker made herappearance. She wag fatigued by her journey and glad torest.

　　``I was afraid you might be prevented fromcoming,'' said Frank.

　　``I feared it also. I was about to start at twelveo'clock, when, to my dismay, one of the men camehome. He said he had the headache. I was obligedto make him some tea and toast. He remained abouttill four o'clock, when, to my relief, he went upstairsto lie down. I was afraid some inquiry might bemade about you, and your absence discovered, especiallyas the rope was still hanging out of the window,and I was unable to do anything more than cutoff the lower end of it. When the sick man retired tohis bed I instantly left the house, fearing that thereturn of some other of the band might prevent myescaping altogether.''

　　``Suppose you had met one of them, Mrs. Parker?''

　　``I did. It was about half a mile from the house.''

　　``Did he recognize you?''

　　``Yes. He asked in some surprise where I wasgoing. I was obliged to make up a story about ourbeing out of sugar. He accepted it without suspicion,and I kept on. I hope I shall be forgivenfor the lie. I was forced to it.''

　　``You met no further trouble?''

　　``No.''

　　``I must tell you of my adventure,'' said Frank.

　　``I came across the very man whom I most dreaded--the man who made me a prisoner.''

　　``Since he knows that you have escaped, he isprobably on your track,'' said Mrs. Parker. ``It willbe hardly safe for you to go to Mr. Wharton's.''

　　``Why?''

　　``He will probably think you likely to go there, andbe lying in wait somewhere about.''

　　``But I must go to Mr. Wharton,'' said Frank. ``Imust tell him this story.''

　　``It will be safer to write.''

　　``The housekeeper, Mrs. Bradley, or John Wade,will get hold of the letter and suppress it. I don'twant to put them on their guard.''

　　``You are right. It is necessary to be cautious.''

　　``You see I am obliged to call on my grandfather,that is, on Mr. Wharton.''

　　``I can think of a better plan.''

　　``What is it?''

　　``Go to a respectable lawyer. Tell him your story,and place your case in his hands. He will write toyour grandfather, inviting him to call at his officeon business of importance, without letting him knowwhat is the nature of it. You and I can be there tomeet him, and tell our story. In this way John Wadewill know nothing, and learn nothing, of your movements.''

　　``That is good advice, Mrs. Parker, but there isone thing you have not thought of,'' said our hero.

　　``What is that?''

　　``Lawyers charge a great deal for their services,and I have no money.''

　　``You have what is as good a recommendation--agood case. The lawyer will see at once that if not atpresent rich, you stand a good chance of obtaininga position which will make you so. Besides, yourgrandfather will be willing, if he admits your claim,to recompense the lawyer handsomely.''

　　``I did not think of that. I will do as you adviseto-morrow.''

The conersation was resumed by Critobulus, and on this wise. He said: I think I take your meaning fully, Socrates, about these matters; and for myself, examining my heart, I am further satisfied, I have sufficient continence and self-command in those respects. So that if you will only advise me on what I am to do to improve my estate, I flatter myself I shall not be hindered by those despotic dames, as you call them. Come, do not hesitate; only tender me what good advice you can, and trust me I will follow it. But perhaps, Socrates, you have already passed sentence on us — we are rich enough already, and not in need of any further wealth?

Soc. It is to myself rather, if I may be included in your plural “we,” that I should apply the remark. I am not in need of any further wealth, if you like. I am rich enough already, to be sure. But you, Critobulus, I look upon as singularly poor, and at times, upon my soul, I feel a downright compassion for you.

At this view of the case, Critobulus fell to laughing outright, retorting: And pray, Socrates, what in the name of fortune do you suppose our respective properties would fetch in the market, yours and mine?

If I could find a good purchaser (he answered), I suppose the whole of my effects, including the house in which I live, might very fairly realise five minae23 (say twenty guineas). Yours, I am positively certain, would fetch at the lowest more than a hundred times that sum.

Crit. And with this estimate of our respective fortunes, can you still maintain that you have no need of further wealth, but it is I who am to be pitied for my poverty?

Soc. Yes, for my property is amply sufficient to meet my wants, whereas you, considering the parade you are fenced about with, and the reputation you must needs live up to, would be barely well off, I take it, if what you have already were multiplied by three.

Pray, how may that be? Critobulus asked.

Why, first and foremost (Socrates explained), I see you are called upon to offer many costly sacrifices, failing which, I take it, neither gods nor men would tolerate you; and, in the next place, you are bound to welcome numerous foreigners as guests, and to entertain them handsomely; thirdly, you must feast your fellow-citizens and ply them with all sorts of kindness, or else be cut adrift from your supporters.24 Furthermore, I perceive that even at present the state enjoins upon you various large contributions, such as the rearing of studs,25 the training of choruses, the superintendence of gymnastic schools, or consular duties,26 as patron of resident aliens, and so forth; while in the event of war you will, I am aware, have further obligations laid upon you in the shape of pay27 to carry on the triearchy, ship money, and war taxes28 so onerous, you will find difficulty in supporting them. Remissness in respect of any of these charges will be visited upon you by the good citizens of Athens no less strictly than if they caught you stealing their own property. But worse than all, I see you fondling the notion that you are rich. Without a thought or care how to increase your revenue, your fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love,29 as if you had some special license to amuse yourselef. . . . That is why I pity and compassionate you, fearing lest some irremediable mischief overtake you, and you find yourself in desperate straits. As for me, if I ever stood in need of anything, I am sure you know I have friends who would assist me. They would make some trifling contribution — trifling to themselves, I mean — and deluge my humble living with a flood of plenty. But your friends, albeit far better off than yourself, considering your respective styles of living, persist in looking to you for assistance.

Then Critobulus: I cannot gainsay what you have spoken, Socrates, it is indeed high time that you were constituted my patronus, or I shall become in very truth a pitiable object.

To which appeal Socrates made answer: Why, you yourself must surely be astonished at the part you are now playing. Just now, when I said that I was rich, you laughed at me as if I had no idea what riches were, and you were not happy till you had cross-examined me and forced me to confess that I do not possess the hundredth part of what you have; and now you are imploring me to be your patron, and to stint no pains to save you from becoming absolutely and in very truth a pauper.30

Crit. Yes, Socrates, for I see that you are skilled in one lucrative operation at all events — the art of creating a surplus. I hope, therefore, that a man who can make so much out of so little will not have the slightest difficulty in creating an ample surplus out of an abundance.

Soc. But do not you recollect how just now in the discussion you would hardly let me utter a syllable31 while you laid down the law: if a man did not know how to handle horses, horses were not wealth to him at any rate; nor land, nor sheep, nor money, nor anything else, if he did not know how to use them? And yet these are the very sources of revenue from which incomes are derived; and how do you expect me to know the use of any of them who never possessed a single one of them since I was born?

Crit. Yes, but we agreed that, however little a man may be blest with wealth himself, a science of economy exists; and that being so, what hinders you from being its professor?

Soc. Nothing, to be sure,32 except what would hinder a man from knowing how to play the flute, supposing he had never had a flute of his own and no one had supplied the defect by lending him one to practise on: which is just my case with regard to economy,33 seeing I never myself possessed the instrument of the science which is wealth, so as to go through the pupil stage, nor hitherto has any one proposed to hand me over his to manage. You, in fact, are the first person to make so generous an offer. You will bear in mind, I hope, that a learner of the harp is apt to break and spoil the instrument; it is therefore probable, if I take in hand to learn the art of economy on your estate, I shall ruin it outright.

Critobulus retorted: I see, Socrates, you are doing your very best to escape an irksome task: you would rather not, if you can help it, stretch out so much as your little finger to help me to bear my necessary burthens more easily.

Soc. No, upon my word, I am not trying to escape: on the contrary, I shall be ready, as far as I can, to expound the matter to you.34 . . . Still it strikes me, if you had come to me for fire, and I had none in my house, you would not blame me for sending you where you might get it; or if you had asked me for water, and I, having none to give, had led you elsewhere to the object of your search, you would not, I am sure, have disapproved; or did you desire to be taught music by me, and I were to point out to you a far more skilful teacher than myself, who would perhaps be grateful to you moreover for becoming his pupil, what kind of exception could you take to my behaviour?

Crit. None, with any show of justice, Socrates.

Soc. Well, then, my business now is, Critobulus, to point out35 to you some others cleverer than myself about those matters which you are so anxious to be taught by me. I do confess to you, I have made it long my study to discover who among our fellow-citizens in this city are the greatest adepts in the various branches of knowledge.36 I had been struck with amazement, I remember, to observe on some occasion that where a set of people are engaged in identical operations, half of them are in absolute indigence and the other half roll in wealth. I bethought me, the history of the matter was worth investigation. Accordingly I set to work investigating, and I found that it all happened very naturally. Those who carried on their affairs in a haphazard manner I saw were punished by their losses; whilst those who kept their wits upon the stretch and paid attention I soon perceived to be rewarded by the greater ease and profit of their undertakings.37 It is to these I would recommend you to betake yourself. What say you? Learn of them: and unless the will of God oppose,38 I venture to say you will become as clever a man of business as one might hope to see.

If time really such as water, why not faded, time deduction of the vicissitudes of life; If life really clear like a dream, why don't wake up, old afterglow of smoke. 

Signature - 

At night, a dense with fragrant fireflies, soft the city numerous of breath, placed in the empty the other shore, diffuse the streetlamps begin around the warm, cold streets stumble cold footprint. 

Time, is still lonely, leaving behind a figure, and lonely in hand, stray in the delicate and charming cycle. 

The fragrance of the other shore, disseminated yesterday's sad, how many mind a red, throwing fly YuGuangNian ocean. The youth's desk, who put the who's strong, grated into a flying in the sky flocculation. 

Time flies singing fragrant, cycle time of reflection, who amorous feelings still blossom. Yesterday's bright red, along with the romantic, as the neon light dance, leave in the feminine point shadow, the light flavor, like touched cheeks like the wind, so soft, but difficult to touch. 

All say time is like running water, the quietly and fleeting time, we left countless beautiful moments. Rotating ring, take away the old naughty ZiYing, and the old smoke and bury the who bleak residual dream. 

Faint light sigh, don't do any old time, when a cool moonlight cover reincarnation a faint fragrance, who is singing still dotted with vicissitudes of life. 

The other shore fragrant, lonely time. In the light pen and ink, paint GongZhuang yesterday, shallow language of flowers, phase keep seasonal cycle, and the rest of the LiChou, who over the midnight time, chatter fell a tree feminine cheery red or bright red. 

Do not know why, recently always likes to indulge in beautiful song tang poetry, looking at the tragic that ancient poem, as if place oneself in the amorous feelings of the deep in the garden. Perhaps, at that moment, the magic mirror cover the body tender feelings in the voice of the lonely. The wind blows, and the spreading thoughts embrace time float shadow, and gradually precipitated in the long river of time, and eventually evolved into memory, blossom, light ink mark. 

Temptress moon silent, the heart if the floating dust. When the indisposition thoughts, toss in the time flies, and drift of the lonely, and the continue to where. Who left the appearance, still lost. 

A paper sadness, write not the fragrance of the courtyard, suddenly in a faint fragrance, already separate a life time of the end to but a court of the collected experience. 

The other shore fragrant, lonely time. The dies rings, how many LiChou in bold and unrestrained. Vicissitudes of life buried the sadness, time annihilate the vicissitudes of life, and so blurred scenery, and how to treasure. 

The past is like smoke vanishing, clear sorrow if water, who is, in every shore time, croon shallow sing.
