Nothing was said all night.

At the end of a tired and happy day, the next day, Maiko returned.

Ma Yike came back very early that day, and when he came back, he bought some fresh lettuce and came back.

When I saw Ma Yike, I immediately went up to greet her as if it were the first time I saw her, and told her how she was doing yesterday.

At that time, Ma Yike's expression was a little sullen, and I barely smiled when I asked, I don't know if she forgave me, but when I asked her with a smile, "Sister Ma, should you go again", Ma Yike smiled faintly and asked me not to think too much, she will stay.

Provided, of course, that I hope she and I can be the same as before.

Ma Yike's words still made me feel a little uncomfortable, but in any case, I was already very content that Ma Yi might come back. After all, I had done something like that before, and I didn't expect Ma Yi to forgive me right away.

In the future, I am afraid that I can only keep my distance from her as much as possible.

Just like when I first met her.

I and she know that.

I still had to go to work that day, so Ma Yike was still at home to take care of Jiaqi.

But as '06 is coming to an end, my busy year is coming to an end. I also know that it won't be long before I can have a decent vacation.

The next day's work was very uneventful, nothing more than placing orders, contacting customers and the like, and nothing serious.

It's just that because at the end of the year, there are more shipments, and as the general manager of the branch, I sometimes have to go to the workshop to investigate the production progress, which is more time-consuming.

I have the impression that the day was very uneventful. In the evening, I still came home as usual, and when I got home, Ma Yike had already prepared a meal and was waiting for me.

At dinner that day, Ma Yike and I were unexpectedly cold, perhaps because the events of the day before yesterday still caused a little estrangement in our hearts after all.

In short, after a meal, Ma Yike and I didn't say a few words.

The only thing Ma Yike mentioned was that someone came to my house to look for me when I was at the company today.

At that time, when I asked Ma Yike who was looking for me and what was wrong with me, Ma Yike stopped talking inexplicably, saying that the person was probably looking for the wrong person, and it was fine.

In short, Ma Yike said evasively, as if he wanted to make it clear, but as if he didn't want to say anything, he didn't say much. In the end, I didn't care, and the dinner was just gone.

It's just that although the dinner that day was very uneventful and nothing special, in retrospect, that dinner was the last supper for me.

Because the very next day, when Jiaqi was six years old, the biggest and most terrifying thing happened without warning.

That earth-shattering incident completely disrupted my life. Now that I think about it, in fact, all the stories that happened that day were already in the early days of that dinner.

It was December 20th, five days before Christmas.

It was a working day, so I still had to go to work as usual, of course, I had already decided that day, because the company was already busy with everything in those days, the inventory of the year had almost been sold out, and there were only one or two transactions left for a few big companies. In other words, as long as I am busy for these few days, there will be no big business to work in the company, and at that time, I can also have the opportunity to take time off to travel.

Even though it was already winter, I decided to take Jiaqi out of town.

Of course, because it is winter, the plan to travel to Xinjiang is impossible to realize. Because as far as I know, in the winter, many tourist attractions in the north such as Xinjiang are closed to the public in the winter because of the heavy snowfall on the mountains.

Of course, even if I can't go to Xinjiang, I want to take Jiaqi to other places, such as Hainan, which is a warmer southern region.

That day I went to the company with a relaxed and leisurely mood, because these days, I have not been particularly busy, all aspects of the company have been coordinated, the production workshop is responsible for the manager of the production department, the staff salary and New Year's goods are responsible for the financial department, and the rest of the things, I almost don't need to interfere, all I need is to arrange and coordinate.

So overall, my workload is very light.

When I went out early that morning, it was Ma Yike who personally took me out.

This surprised me a little, I didn't expect Ma Yike to send me out so considerately, which couldn't help but surprise me and make me a little reverie.

However, when he sent me out, the expression on Ma Yike's face was not smiling, and he even looked preoccupied, as if he was worried about something.

"What's wrong, in a bad mood?" The expression on Ma Yike's face was obvious, and if I couldn't see it, it would be impossible.

"Ah, nothing...... It's just that it's a little sleepy. Ma Yike came back to his senses and answered me.

"Then you go and rest, Jiaqi has made a lot of trouble during this time, and it has worked hard for you, haha. I laughed.

"Hehe......" Ma Yike also smiled shallowly, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. To be honest, Ma Yike is not a girl who likes to laugh heartily, she is more quiet, and even if she laughs, it is always a shallow smile, not a hearty laugh. "Thank you for your concern......"

I smiled and walked out of the house with my briefcase.

It's just that when I turn back by chance, I still see Ma Yike looking at me from afar, as if thinking about something.

Of course, I didn't take that scene to heart.

It was a cloudy day, and for winter, cloudy days are normal. I didn't do very well in the company that day, and in the afternoon I met two employees because of some quarrels, and almost got fired, and I was a little helpless at that time, because the two employees were older than me, and I was really embarrassed to fight. After all, I'm just a young man, and it's still a bit tender to deal with these quarrels. Fortunately, Manager Cui in the final production workshop found a security guard and persuaded the two employees to come down, and the matter came to an end.

Because of this incident, I was a little irritable and emotionally unstable in the company that day, and looking at the gray sky outside the office, I always felt like the depressed sky was about to collapse at any time.

But fortunately, time passed quickly, and when the time came to get off work at 5 p.m., my mood was still a little calmer, and I sorted out my paperwork and took a taxi home.

Because I didn't get a driver's license for a long time, I hadn't bought a car at that time, and the company didn't have a special car, so I had to take a taxi home to get to and from work.

Although the day in the company was not very smooth, but when the local city stopped at the door of the house, my mood was still much better, thinking of the little girl at home who was naughty all day long, a little childish and silly, no matter how big or small, she would only sweetly call me papa, my mood would always be unconsciously cheerful.

Before I got out of the car, my mind seemed to sound the ridiculous scene of Jiaqi with long black hair, jumping up to me with fluttering eyes and hugging my thighs and calling me "papa".

I can't help but laugh when I think of such a scene.

It's just that when I walked home, I couldn't laugh.

When I walked into the hall of my house, I was frozen.

There has never been a moment that made my heart so terrified.

There has never been a moment when I was like a lightning strike.

Is this still my home?

The coffee table in the hall was overturned, the windows were shattered, and the sofa was relocated, lying crookedly to the side, with fragments of vases on the floor.

What frightened me even more was that the little white poodle Xiaobai on the stairs at the door of the house actually fell on the stairs like that, not moving, but a puddle of shocking red blood flowed out of his fluffy white mouth, and Xiaobai's body was also deformed, as if he had been trampled on before he died, and his stomach was like a piece of tissue paper.

Xiaobai is dead.

Xiaobai, the little poodle who has been with me and Jiaqi for so many years, died like that.

What's going on?

Who did it?

At that moment, my whole body trembled as if I had been electrocuted, and my eyes were a little moist at that moment. What's going on at home?

Who came to my house and what did they do?

After being stunned in the hall for a while, I ran desperately into the living room, but it was empty, and there was no one, if it was usual, Ma Yike would have prepared a table of food, and Jiaqi and Jia Qi were waiting for me to go home.

Today, however, the dining table in the living room is empty, and there is nothing.

"Kiki!"

I screamed frantically, my voice distorted from being too nervous.

The villa was huge, and my voice resounded in every corner of the villa, and the echoes of the Tao echoed back to my ears from all sides of the villa, and from the moment I was victorious, I was horrified to find that my voice was terrified and trembling like never before.

No one answered.

At that moment, I was almost certain that something was going on at home.

If Ma Yi Ke and Jia Qi were both at home, Ma Yi would not have allowed the hall to become a mess without cleaning up.

What the hell is going on?

Where's Jiaqi?

Could she have been hurt in any way?

At that moment, I was most worried about Jiaqi, and after shouting in the hall for a long time and no one responded, I rushed out of the living room and rushed to the second floor. It was the bedroom where Ma Yi Ke was, and if Ma Yi Ke wasn't in the hall in normal times, then she should at least stay in the bedroom.

"Maike, are you there?"

However, when I pushed the door open and rushed into Mayike's bedroom, I was stunned again.

The bedroom was empty, the quilts were neatly folded, and the bed was spread out as if no one had ever come.

It's just that at first glance, I noticed that none of Ma Yike's big and small luggage seemed to have evaporated.

Something went wrong.

At this point, no matter how much I tried to pretend to be calm, I had to accept a fact that I didn't want to believe.

There must have been something big going on in my family, a big thing that I couldn't afford.

There was no one in Ma Yike's bedroom, and the one I was most worried about was Jiaqi.

Almost without hesitation, I rushed out of Mayike's bedroom and to the third floor where Jiaqi and I were located.

Jiaqi, will it be there?

Jiaqi, you must not have any problems.

At that moment, I was anxious, what if something happened to Jiaqi?

What am I going to do?

I rushed to the bedroom on the third floor and slammed the door open.

It's empty.

There was no Jiaqi, the TV was off, and the quilt was neatly stacked, just like when I left in the morning.

For a moment, I felt my whole body weak, my body was leaning against the door frame, my whole body was sore, and I almost collapsed to the ground, I wanted to scream, but I couldn't scream as if something was stuck in my throat.

At that time, I was already sure.

Something happened to Jiaqi.
