Chapter 3: The Peasants
"Crackling. ”
In a burst of firecrackers, the three vicious dogs fled, jumped into the mango forest and disappeared, my little yellow dog looked confused, the war has not started, it is over?
Watching the dog walk back in confusion, Gao Xiao sneered: "Brother Xiaoluo, you are a bad person, your dog has not enjoyed it, you scared its enemies away!"
"Get out of here, these dogs are more ferocious than the other, and getting bitten is no joke. ”
I didn't have the leisure to joke with Gao Xiaofan, so I hurriedly increased the electric door, wanting to leave this mango forest quickly.
Gao Xiaofan said: "Are you often harassed by vicious dogs, so you always have firecrackers in the car?"
"Yes, otherwise, who would have nothing to do with a string of firecrackers in the car?"
I shook my head with a wry smile, and Gao Xiaofan sighed: "Hey, it's also true, it's prepared...... But whose dog is so bullying, isn't it afraid of hurting others when it is outside?"
"This is the dog of the owner of the mango orchard. ”
I frowned, and to be honest, I was really annoyed by the three dogs.
Because I moved to live near the mango orchard two months ago, and the place of residence is three or four hundred meters away from the owner's house, which can be regarded as a neighbor, but this is an unbearable neighbor.
Because my neighbor has three dogs, like three mad dogs, every now and then, they like to bark at two or three o'clock in the morning.
And my neighbor also wants to have a nervous disorder like a mad dog, and when the dogs bark wildly, he not only does not stop it, but also turns up the sound volume in the house to the maximum, and wakes you up from your sleep alive, because of this incident, I almost got a nervous breakdown.
After listening to my confession, Gao Xiaofan was a little angry, she said: "Wow, you can go and remind him to stop, or, complain about him!"
"Complaining? This is someone else's territory, why do you ......?"
As I was talking, I casually looked up and suddenly stopped.
Under the setting sun, a tall figure appeared in front of us, a tall man of 1.9 meters with gray hair, carrying a hoe on his shoulder, standing on the dirt road in the middle of the mango orchard, as if he had just returned from work.
The sunset dragged his shadow to the elder, because his face was on the dark side, and we couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but the two glances in his eyes made people fall into the ice cellar in an instant, which was a gaze that only a wolf could emit.
Gao Xiaofan was already frightened, and subconsciously hugged me from behind, and I could feel that her body was faintly shaking......
After returning home, Gao Xiaofan hadn't come back to her senses, and she was obviously frightened by the person just now.
I grabbed her a drink from the fridge and comforted, "Don't be afraid, we're home." ”
Gao Xiaomi sat on the sofa in a daze, his eyes went straight through the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, stared at the mango orchard and said: "What happened to that farmer uncle just now, we just scared his dog away, but his eyes looked like he was going to kill us." ”
At this time, Gao Xiaomi's face was pale and pale, and it was enough to be scared to this extent, so I patted her on the shoulder: "He has a more withdrawn personality and doesn't like to socialize with people, let's be honest with you, I have moved here for three months and have not said a word to him." ”
"You're a strange neighbor. ”
Xiao Fan opened the drink bottle and took a sip before she came to her senses, but she still asked me with palpitations: "Aren't you afraid to live with such a strange neighbor...... Do you know, the look in his eyes just now is the most terrifying look I've seen in my sixteen years of life, and I will definitely have nightmares when I go back tonight. ”
Hearing her say this, I slowly turned my head to look at the mango orchard outside, and said, "With her with me, I'm not afraid of anything." ”
"Who's your puppy?"
The little fan was puzzled, and I laughed: "My girlfriend, Xiaomang." ”
"Uh...... Isn't your girlfriend dead?
The expression on the face of the little fan froze, and the eyes suddenly panicked again, I turned back to her and smiled: "Xiao Mango liked mangoes the most when she was alive, mango flowers mango trees and mango fruits, she once told me that where there are mangoes, she exists, so I choose to live here, as long as I look at the mango orchard every day, I feel that she is back." ”
Xiao Mi's shoulders trembled, and his voice trembled: "Xiao ...... Brother Xiaoluo, you ...... Don't talk about it, why do I sound so crazy. ”
"Okay, let's not talk about it, let Mengmeng play with you for a while, and I'll wash some fruit for you. ”
I shook my head, slowly came to a head, stood up, and the little fan nodded: "Yes, but I don't eat mangoes." ”
I walked into the kitchen, stood in front of the sink, turned on the faucet, and watched the water wash over the fruit bowl, and my eyes were moist.
Actually, I don't eat mangoes, since Xiao Mang's death, mangoes have become an eternal monument in my heart...... There was an exclamation from the little fan in the living room: "Brother Xiao Luo, there is a snow-white hair on your cute chest." ”
"That hair grows from the back. ”
As I washed the fruit, I said that the little fan was holding the puppy and was very interested in my answer: "Why did it grow in the back, has it been injured and lost its hair?"
"When it was three months old, in order to save people, it was seriously injured once and almost died!"
I washed the fruit and walked back to the living room with the fruit bowl, the little fan heard my statement, more and more surprised, she opened her big black jewel-like eyes, and asked in surprise: "Wow, can the puppy also save people, could it be that your puppy is the reincarnation of Superman?"
"I'm not kidding you, I was the one it saved that time. ”
I reached out and stroked the round head of the cute cute, I remember that it was an evening, we were eating out with the dog, and during the meal we had an argument with a group of drunks, and in the process of tearing up, one of the drunks took out a dagger and stabbed me, and my puppy jumped up and gouged out the drunkard's eyes while blocking the dagger.
The little fan listened to me like a fantasy, and then looked at the puppy with great admiration, and admired: "Oh my God, this dog of yours is really a god dog, and I want to raise one too." ”
"It's not a divine dog, it's just a loyal dog. ”
I stared at the dog Meng Meng with loving eyes, and Meng Meng also stared at me with its black jewel-like eyes, one person and one dog, with the same heart, even the tall fans next to me were envious.
She was about to speak, the door opened, and Gao Liang broke in, Gao Xiaofan and I were shocked at the same time when we saw Gao Liang.
Gao Liang picked up a piece of watermelon from the coffee table and said while nibbling on it: "I'm sorry, dear apprentice, the task is coming, and I want you to work overtime with me tonight." ”
The little fan said angrily: "Dad, we just sat down, our butts haven't been hot yet, and we have to work overtime?
Hearing Gao Xiaofan say this, Gao Liang said in surprise: "Hey, girl, I just asked her to pick you up once, and you turned your elbow out?"
He reached out and pinched my shoulders and turned my face over: "Tell me honestly, what kind of ecstasy soup did you drink to my daughter, so that she will be on the same side as you so quickly?"
Facing the bright eyes, I smiled bitterly: "Boss, don't make trouble, is there any new progress in the case that you need my support?"
Gao Liang angrily took a bite of watermelon, let go of me, glanced at Gao Xiaomi, and said: "The identity of the female corpse in the morning has been confirmed, and after being captured by Tianyan, the last place where she appeared before her death was the staff dormitory of the Dongwan Paper Company, and it asked us to go to the paper company to learn about the situation." ”
"Okay. ”
I patted the couch and stood up, Gao Xiaofan watched us get ready to act, and she asked, "What about me?"
"Come with us, we're just looking it up, it won't take much time. ”
Gao Liang said that after listening to it, Gao Xiaofan picked up the puppy very excitedly: "Good duck, good duck, I like to go to the front line of the investigation the most, thank you Dad." ”
"Then what are you holding my dog for?"
I saw that the little fan didn't mean to let go of Mengmeng, so I asked, the little fan made a grimace, turned around and ran out: "Didn't you say that this is a magical dog, if you can bring it, maybe it can play a magical role." ”
Before the words were finished, the person had run away and there was no shadow, Gao Liang and I glanced at each other helplessly, and could only shrug our shoulders and sigh......
Twenty minutes later, we drove to the East Bay Paper Mill, a state-owned enterprise that has not closed down in the economically depressed East Bay.
The police car stopped downstairs in the dormitory, Gao Xiaofan stayed in the car with the puppy to play, Gao Liang and I went up to understand the situation, in order to make my daughter obediently stay, Gao Liang did not pull out the key, he played music for Gao Xiaofan to listen to.
Knocking on the door of the dormitory, a few shirtless men were a little surprised, Gao Liang and I were also very surprised, looking at the messy dormitory, thinking that he had made a mistake, Gao Liang hurriedly confirmed: "Master, may I ask if this is the No. 23 dormitory in Area A?"
"yes, what's the matter?"
The bare-chested man replied, and I asked, "This is the men's dormitory?"
"Of course, it always has been. ”
After the bare-shouldered man finished speaking, Gao Liang and I glanced at each other, and Gao Liang asked the big man: "How many people live in your dormitory, but are there women living in it?"
"We had six people in one dormitory, and there were no women living in it, but ...... Xiao Wang occasionally brings his girlfriend back to sleep. ”
The big man smiled and said.
Gao Liang and I were shocked, who is this Xiao Wang, who is awesome, he actually took his girlfriend into the men's dormitory to sleep?
We walked into the dormitory, a burst of sweat smelled in our noses, and after finding a stool to sit down, the big man pointed to the upper bunk of the upper and lower iron frame beds on the side, and said with a fluttering eyebrow...... Uncle policeman, you don't know, I haven't dared to close my eyes when I sleep underneath, I'm worried that the bed will fall apart, and I'm even more worried that the bed board will fall off and crush me into a patty......"
Dahan's words caused a burst of laughter in the dormitory.
Gao Liang took out a photo, handed it to Dahan, and asked him, "Have you seen the person in the photo?"
The photo is a young woman, looking at the face, it is the female corpse found in the big bathhouse in the morning, the big man pointed to the photo and said: "By the way, this is it, the woman Xiao Wang brought back recently is this." ”
At this time, a lean young man appeared at the door of the dormitory, saw the situation in the dormitory, thought for a second, turned around and ran.
Gao Liang pointed to the young man who ran away and asked the big man: "Who is he, what is he running?"
"He's Xiao Wang, he should be shy to turn around and run!"
Dahan laughed, Gao Liang and I stood up at the same time, and said, "Chase!"
