In the private room of a restaurant in Linshi, there are four dishes and one soup on the table, some meat and vegetarian, some cold and some hot, but next to these dishes, there is a wooden box, and the black and white photos on it are particularly conspicuous.

"This is your brother's ashes, I brought them to you. Li Dong pushed the urn in front of Hu Xue.

I didn't pay attention to it in the bathroom just now, and then I had time to look at Xiao Wu's sister, the other party was petite, with delicate facial features, saying that she was in her early twenties, but Li Dong felt as if she was only a teenager, and I am afraid that some people would believe that she was a minor student, she had no makeup, she was dressed very plainly, and there was no jewelry on her body.

Hu Xue looked at the urn quietly, her eyes were a little dull, and soon, her eyes were red, and tears flowed out along her eye sockets, she quickly wiped them with her hands, trying her best to hide her emotions, but the tears still flowed out uncontrollably, like a bead curtain with broken threads.

Li Dong handed Hu Xue a few tissues, looked at the other party and said, "When your brother died, I was at the scene, and they were going to bring the body back to Linshi, but I didn't want them to toss your brother again, so I took it upon myself to make the decision, I hope you can understand." ”

In fact, Li Dong knew that Xiao Wu didn't want his sister to see him being arrested, and he didn't want his sister to be sad for him, so after entrusting his sister out, he chose an extreme way to tie himself up.

"I know. Hu Xue wiped her tears, looked at Li Dong gratefully and said, "The police who notified me have already told me, I didn't expect you to come to me, my brother is a person with strong self-esteem, this should be the most decent and dignified result for him, thank you." Hu Xue stood up and bowed deeply to Li Dong.

"Don't say that, your brother and he call me Brother Dong, I naturally have to deal with his aftermath, and ......" Li Dong paused, looked at Hu Xue and said, "And I'm not here this time just to send ashes." ”

"Huh?"

"Your brother gave you to me before he died, if you don't believe me, you can watch this video. Li Dong said that he found a video in his mobile phone and played it to Hu Xue, it was the conversation between him and Xiao Wu in the interrogation room, which he asked An Ran to secretly film, in order to let Xiao Wu's sister believe him, otherwise why would the girl follow him?

After the other party watched the video, Li Dong said, "This place in Linshi is your brother's sad place, and judging from the situation just now, this place is no longer suitable for you, so I hope you can listen to your brother and go to Qingzhou with me, I will be your brother in the future, and you will be my sister." ”

"It's my sister too. Wu Gang, who was on the side, said angrily, "Qingzhou Dongshan, that's our buddy's territory, if anyone dares to bully you, see how I peel his skin." ”

Hu Xue looked at Wu Gang with a look of hesitation on her face.

Wu Gang saw it and knew that the other party must have thought too much, so he quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm a good person, a policeman from DS County." ”

Hu Xue looked surprised, looked at Wu Gang's body, and didn't seem to believe Wu Gang's words very much, but after a while, he suddenly asked, "I heard the police say that my brother was arrested in DS County, you are a police officer in DS County, do you know who arrested my brother?"

"Huh?" Wu Gang almost fell to the ground, if according to the official statement, the DS County policeman who caught the fugitive was him, but in fact, not only did he not catch anyone, but he was also slashed, but how can he say this? Wu Gang looked at Li Dong on the side for help, and said in his heart: Brother Dong, hurry up and help me round.

Li Dong gave Wu Gang a kick under the table, blaming the other party for interjecting nonsense, but now it's okay, he inserted himself in.

If the other party follows them to Dongshan, then the lie will be easily exposed.

Li Dong thought about it, and finally looked at Hu Xue and said, "Sister, what you have heard is only the police's version, in fact, there is another version, do you want to hear it?"

"Another version?" Hu Xue didn't understand.

"Yes, another version, and the most authentic one. Li Dong said seriously.

Hu Xue looked at Li Dong in a daze, could it be that what the police told her was fake?

"This matter needs to start from the first time I met your brother......" Without waiting for Hu Xue to speak, Li Dong told about himself and Wu Shaohua, he thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to tell Hu Xue the facts, the other party is Xiao Wu's own sister, and he has the right to know the whole incident.

Wu Gang lowered his head weakly, and secretly looked at Hu Xue on the side, no longer having the courage he had just now.

As the whole thing deepened, Hu Xue gradually began to be surprised, she didn't expect that there was another version of the matter, and it was very different from what the police told her, and what she didn't expect was that her brother was not caught by the police, but ...... Rather, he turned himself in.

“…… Therefore, your brother turned himself in completely for me, your brother is righteous, I can't break my trust with him, sister, come with me. After ten minutes, Li Dong finally explained the ins and outs of the whole thing, and he looked at Hu Xue quietly, waiting for the other party's final decision.

Hu Xue lowered her head, covered her face with her hands, and only raised her head after a long time, her red and swollen eyes looked at Li Dong, and a slight desolate smile appeared on her face, "Do you know? This is the first time I have heard someone say good things about my brother since my brother killed someone." ”

Hu Xue's words made Li Dong feel sour, I believe that in the more than half a month that Xiao Wu killed and fled, the girl in front of her must have endured tremendous pressure and pain, and she could still bend down to clean the toilet, which is enough to show the strength of her heart.

Hu Xue suddenly took a deep breath, wiped her eyes with her hand, sat up straight and looked at Li Dong and said seriously, "Thank you for taking care of my brother at the beginning, he is gone now, and the favors he has received will be returned by me, who is my sister, and I will go with you." ”

"Your brother doesn't owe me anything. Li Dong said.

Hu Xue shook her head, as if she hadn't heard Li Dong's words, "My brother works as a helper in your pharmacy, and I will also go to your pharmacy as a helper, I don't need to be paid, just borrow me a place to live and give me a few mouthfuls of food." ”

"Huh?" Li Dong looked at Hu Xue a little helplessly, the temper of the brother and sister is really the same, Xiao Wu also told him the same at the beginning, "Why don't you study it first, are these ashes buried in your ancestral grave, or do you find a cemetery to bury them?"

"Don't bother. Hu Xue picked up the urn on the table and put it on her lap, "I want to take him with me all the time, don't let him be alone." ”

"Well, you can take it if you want. Li Dong said, he knew that the brother and sister had been dependent on each other for so many years, and their relationship must be very deep, so he didn't force it, "Let's hurry up and eat, wait until we go to your house, bring everything we need to take, and strive to rush back to Dongshan before dark." ”

Hu Xue's home is in a dilapidated old building, the skin of the outer wall has begun to fall off, there is no community here, there is no property, the garbage at the door is piled up into a hill, leftover meals, and the feces and urine pulled out are all piled together, and it is even more stinky in Futian.

Li Dong and Wu Gang didn't go up, the two of them had been sitting in the car, and after a few minutes Hu Xue came down, carrying a simple woven bag in his hand, the petite figure was disproportionate to the huge woven bag, and he thought the woven bag was fine when he saw it from a distance.

Li Dong hurriedly got out of the car to pick it up, but Hu Xue stubbornly carried it by herself, until she stuffed the woven bag into the trunk, and she was already tired and sweating.

"This girl, it's quite stubborn!" Wu Gang whispered to Li Dong, who was leaning against the car door.

"What is stubbornness, this is called strength. Li Dong glanced at Wu Gang, "The children of the poor have long been in charge, you know a fart." ”

Wu Gang was scolded and had nothing to say, and looked at it gloomily.

Hu Xue stood next to the car, wiped her sweat, looked up at the house upstairs, looked down at the key in her hand, and suddenly threw it into the garbage heap.

"What are you doing?" asked Li Dong in surprise, and was about to rush into the garbage heap to pick it up.

"Brother Li, don't go!" Hu Xue suddenly shouted loudly, her voice was full of sadness and pain, "I will never come back!" After speaking, he got into the car.

Li Dong stopped, looked at Hu Xue with a resolute expression, turned around and returned to the car.

Wu Gang kept coloring at Li Dong, whether he could pick it up or not? Even if he didn't come back, it would be money if he sold it.

"What do you see me doing?" Li Dong pointed ahead, "Drive, go home!"
