被真理唤醒的心(68)
黑夜降临时，保安拿出一个口香糖塞进嘴里，也友好的递给我一个。我微笑着谢谢他，但没接他的糖。我已发誓自由了才吃喝。
我坐在凉飕飕的硬板凳上和饥渴、虚弱交战了一夜。
翌日早上十点，广州海珠区（我的户籍所在地）610办公室的一个中年妇女来到派出所冷冷的对我说：“我们今天放你。但有个条件：把横幅留下。”
我们四个大法弟子在天安门广场和地下监狱里拚命保护住了我们的横幅，把他带回了广州。
我丈夫来到派出所准备接我回家。趁那女人在派出所门口和他说话时，我背起背囊、步出小屋、走出派出所、准备拦一辆出租车就跑！
那女人大喊一声：“站住！把横幅留下！”
“不！”我把背囊紧紧抱在胸前。
“你不给我就叫人动手抢了！”她目露凶光。
“你们要敢抢，我会用我的生命保护他！”
“我才不管你死呢！”她示意站在旁边的俩个警察动手。
那俩个警察面露犹豫之色。
街道派出所的一个警察之前曾私下对我说过：“我至少百分之七十的同事对你很有好感。只是中国是人治、而不是法治的国家，上面命令我们抓你，我们也没办法。”
警察犹豫时我丈夫大声说：“我妻子是世界上最好的人！你们如果对她使用暴力导致她出事，我会转向支持法轮功！我会开记者招待会曝光！”
那女人马上对我丈夫说了几句话，然后就允许我们带着横幅回家了。
回家路上丈夫对我说：“她要我趁你睡觉时把横幅偷走，明天交到派出所。”
“你答应了？”
“这是换取你自由的条件！就一个横幅，给他们算了！”
“谢谢你刚才的支持。”
那幅写着“法轮大法好！”的横幅，我不愿让他落到邪恶手里。第二天凌晨趁丈夫睡觉时我拿着横幅悄悄走出家门、飞快跑到街上跳上一辆出租车。
我丈夫追出家门、望车兴叹。
我把横幅转移了。（待续）

When it got dark, the security guard took out a chewing gum and put it into his mouth. He kindly offered me one too. I thanked him smilingly but didn’t accept his chewing gum. I had sworn not to eat or drink until I became free.
Sitting on the chilly hard stool, I fought with hunger and weakness for the whole night.
At 10 a.m. next day, a middle-aged woman came to the police station. She was from the 610 of Haizhu District of Guangzhou (My neighborhood belonged to that district). She announced to me in a glacial tone:
“We are to release you today. But there is one condition: Leave the banner here.”
The four of us Dafa practitioners had risked our lives protecting the banner in Tiananmen Square, in the underground jail, and bringing it back to Guangzhou.
My husband got to the police station, waiting to take me home. Taking the opportunity that the woman was talking with him in the doorway of the police station, I carried my backpack, stepped out the small room, walked out the police station, ready to stop a taxi and run!
The woman thundered, “Leave the banner behind!”
“No!” I held my backpack tightly against the chest.
“If you don’t, I’ll have it snatched!” Evil light showed in her eyes.
“If you dare snatch it, I’ll protect it with my life!”
“I won’t care at all even if you die!” She gestured to the two policemen standing by her to snatch my backpack.
The two policemen appeared hesitant.
A policeman of this police station once quietly said to me, “At least seventy percent of my colleagues think well of you. But China is individual-ruled, not constitution-ruled. When the high-ups order us to arrest you, we have no choice.”
As the policemen were hesitating, my husband shouted out, “My wife is the best person in the world! If you use violence on her and kill her, I’ll turn to support Falun Gong! I’ll call a news conference and disclose it!”
The woman immediately said a few words to my husband, and then allowed us to go home with the banner.
On the way home my husband said to me, “She told me to steal the banner while you sleep and hand it in to the police station tomorrow.”
“You consented?”
“That’s the condition of your freedom! It’s only a banner. Just give it to them!”
“Thank you for your support just now.”
I didn’t want the banner, on which was written “Falun Dafa is Good!”, fall into evil’s hand. At dawn the next day, while my husband was asleep, I sneaked out of home carrying the banner, dashed to the street and got in a taxi.
My husband dashed out of home after me just to sigh at the taxi running away.
I managed to transfer the banner.
