Nineteen years, for Su Rui, who has been away for nineteen years, after hearing Ye Binglan's news, the excitement in his heart is beyond words.

Su Rui had long known that not long after he left the children's welfare home, the entire welfare home was burned to rubble by a fire, and even many teachers and children did not survive, which was an extremely embarrassing disaster.

There were so many casualties, but it didn't cause any sensation, and the accident was suppressed by the Ninghai Municipal Government at that time, and not too many people knew about it.

"I had already taken a leave of absence this afternoon to visit the old dean, but you happened to be back, so let's go together." Ye Binglan said happily.

"Okay, but we have to eat first. Su Rui looked at the tired look between Ye Bing's blue eyebrows, and felt a little distressed, this girl is good at everything, but she works too hard.

"Uh-huh, listen to you. Ye Binglan looked at Su Rui's eyebrows with a smile, and her eyes never moved away.

For Su Rui, he has been looking for news of the welfare institute for so many years, and he is not in a hurry at this time, although he is also very excited, but in comparison, Ye Binglan's body is more important.

"When you come out of the dean's house, I'll take you to a massage to relieve your fatigue. Su Rui said: "You stay up late like this, and you can't make up for it just by sleeping." ”

"No problem, listen to you. Ye Binglan smiled: "But I don't let men come to give me a massage." ”

"Am I a man? There is no masseur who is better than me. Su Rui said.

"You're going to give me a massage?" Ye Binglan smiled like a flower: "Of course you can!"

............

The old dean's family lives in an old-fashioned building on the outskirts of the city, which is now changing with each passing day, and this kind of house is already an antique, and it is facing demolition at any time.

"It seems that the old dean is not doing very well. Su Rui said with emotion.

Ye Binglan nodded silently, she also inquired for a long time before she got the news from a friend from the Civil Affairs Bureau.

In the memories of the two of them when they were young, the old dean can be regarded as a more important figure, he was already in his fifties back then, amiable, and if you count it, he should be in his seventies now.

With mixed feelings, the two of them carried fruits, and walked along the dim and damp corridor to the sixth floor, standing in front of an old-fashioned security door.

Su Rui's hand rested on the door, looking a little hesitant.

The hometown is even more timid, and he doesn't dare to ask anyone.

"Knock it. Ye Binglan said, she took a deep breath, and looked a little nervous, at this moment, the mood of the two "brother and sister" was exactly the same.

Su Rui knocked lightly a few times, and an old voice came from inside the room.

"Who?"

Before Su Rui and Ye Binglan could answer, the door had already opened, and what appeared in front of them was an old man in a simple cloth robe.

Even though his hair was completely white, his figure was a little awkward, and his face was full of wrinkles, Su Rui and Ye Binglan still recognized it at a glance, nineteen years later, some memories are always so deep and indelible.

"Old Dean!" Su Rui and Ye Binglan shouted in unison.

Hearing this greeting, the old man's body trembled, and there was some disbelief in his cloudy old eyes.

This title, in the past ten years, has almost never sounded, so strange that it seems that even he has to forget it!

"Who are you?"

The old dean looked at the man and woman standing in the doorway like a pair of beautiful people, a little hesitant, he was trying to search the memories in his mind, but he couldn't remember it anyway.

In almost twenty years, the children have changed so much that he is completely unrecognizable.

"Old dean, I don't know if you remember, I'm Xiaoice, this is my brother, Su Rui. Looking at the old man in his memory, Ye Binglan's eyes were filled with warmth.

"Old Dean, I'm a stone, I don't know if you remember. Su Rui still clearly remembers his nickname when he was a child. As for the word "Su Rui", the ghost knows who gave it to him.

"Xiaoice, the stone? is it you?" the old dean thought in his mind for a long time, and his eyes reappeared with excitement.

"Come in, come in. The old dean hurriedly let the two into the room, and the excited expression on his face could not be concealed at all.

"My brain is really getting worse and worse the older I get, and it took me a long time to remember. The old dean hurriedly tried to pour tea for them, but he couldn't even find a suitable cup.

In the end, the old dean only took two bowls out and filled them with water, which made Su Rui feel sad when he saw this scene.

"Old Dean, aren't your children around?" asked the attentive Ye Binglan.

This room seems to be occupied only by the old dean, and the lunch on the table has not been cleaned up, only a pair of chopsticks.

"My children are busy with work, and I live far away, so I usually come back to visit me once a month. The old dean said with a smile: "My wife had stomach cancer a few years ago and left, leaving me alone, and I am estimated that my body bones can last for a few more years." ”

Su Rui looked at the furnishings in this room, thinking that the children of the old dean were really unfilial, and he didn't want to buy some good things for his father.

"Okay, it's really good, Xiaoice, Shi, I didn't expect you all to grow so big. The old dean's eyes kept sweeping over Su Rui and Ye Binglan's faces, and he said with satisfaction: "The big boy and the big girl, it's really beautiful." ”

"I remember that the two of you liked to stick together when you were young, childhood sweethearts, but I didn't expect to grow up and become a couple, what a good marriage, a match made in heaven!" said the old dean with emotion.

Two people?

Obviously, the old dean had misunderstood something.

Hearing this, Ye Binglan's handsome face was slightly red, and she had a sweet feeling in her heart, she secretly glanced at Su Rui and found that the latter was trying to explain.

"Old Dean, Xiaoice and I are actually ......"

Before Su Rui could finish speaking, he was hurriedly interrupted by Ye Binglan: "Old Dean, after so many years, I don't know how your body is?"

Su Rui glanced at Ye Binglan in some surprise, it seemed that it was not her style to interrupt others.

"My body, it's quite tough, it's okay to be idle on weekdays, walk more, and usually don't have colds and fevers. The old dean looked at Ye Binglan and Su Rui, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and the more he looked at it, the happier he became: "I haven't seen you for so many years, how did you find me here?"

Ye Binglan hesitated for a moment and said, "I happened to have a friend in the Civil Affairs Bureau, so I asked him to inquire, and I found out that you live here, old dean." ”

She didn't say that she had been looking for many years and had a lot of friends, but only recently happened to find out the news of the old dean.

Because, Ye Binglan didn't even know the name of the old dean, and coupled with the cover up of the fire by the Ninghai Municipal Government, many valuable materials were wiped out.

"Well, I don't know what happened to those poor children. The old dean seemed to remember something, and sighed slightly.

After the children in the welfare home entered the society, they became three-free teenagers who no one cared about and no one asked, and many of them ended up in prison, and it is really rare to be able to grow up to the likes of Ye Binglan and Su Rui.

Those children are all the concerns of the old dean.

Su Rui's expression moved, and he asked, "Old Dean, do you remember the situation of the fire after I left?"

As soon as the old dean heard the word "fire", as if he remembered something very painful, his body began to tremble slightly.

"What's wrong with you?"

Su Rui didn't personally experience that fire, so he naturally didn't know what kind of panic it caused at that time.

"The fire should have started shortly after you left. "I didn't expect that the old dean could even remember such an accurate time point.

Su Rui nodded, and the answers he got from all sides were the same.

"A few days after you were taken away by the good Samaritans, there was a big fire in the orphanage, it was night, many children and teachers were asleep, and all the school buildings were burned. When the old dean said this, the pain on his face became clearer and clearer, although after so many years, he recalled it again at this time, and those scenes were still vivid.

"Is it arson?" Su Rui's tone was already very low.

"The Public Security Bureau filed a case, but it was later closed, because there were really too many children who were burned to death and burned at that time, and they were not hesitant to be involved in a catastrophe, and if it was spread, it would have a fatal impact on the future of the leaders at that time. ”

Although the old dean didn't say it explicitly, he could understand from the meaning of his words, and he must have thought that it was arson!

How could it be a natural fire when so many school buildings were burned down at the same time at night? There was no fire source in the vicinity of the school buildings! Even if the liquefied gas explosion in the cafeteria could not have caused such a result!

What a normal person can see at a glance, but because of the wisdom of the government leaders, they missed the best opportunity to solve the case, and the guide has now become an unsolved case!

The cold glint in Su Rui's eyes gradually began to condense.

Ye Binglan herself is a criminal policeman, and she immediately began to analyze the possibility of finding out this case.

"After so many years, I'm afraid it's really hard to check. Ye Binglan thought for a moment and sighed softly.

"Later, after the fire, the No. 4 Welfare Home was disbanded, and the teachers and students who survived were placed in other welfare homes, and I also retired early, and I have been until now. ”

Su Rui didn't know the cause of the fire before, but now that he knows, if he doesn't find out, it will be too inconsistent with his character.

"Old dean, do you remember, who was the mayor of Ninghai at that time?" Su Rui did not understand this in detail, he was the mayor of Ninghai nineteen years ago, and now that so long has passed, I am afraid that his status is already terrifying!

"Of course I remember. The old dean didn't even need to recall, and blurted out directly: "Bai Keqing, he was very young at that time, he had just become the mayor of Ninghai, and he had a bright future." ”

"Third Uncle of the Bai Family?" Su Rui's eyebrows furrowed, like two sharp swords about to be unsheathed!
