Chapter 45: The Strange Red Shoes

I never went back to Qiaobian Town after the Spring Festival in my freshman year, and my family moved out of the town after that. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info parents said that the fallen leaves return to the roots, and they will go back here to retire in the future.

Outside, under this no longer blue sky, I unforgivably gradually forgot my nostalgia and forgot my childhood.

After experiencing love and hatred, the low tide of failure and the joy of success, not long ago, the scars of youth crossed my mind like a spiritual light, and my attachment to the countryside was revived, and I resolutely resigned and left Beijing.

The most recent memory I have left here is that after the freshman year, we went to the bus with a large bag and a small bag, and my parents stuffed bag after bag of hometown specialties into the bag.

In their eyes, Beijing was a desert, and our student children starved all day long, living like laborers in the Qing Dynasty's treaty ports.

Because Geng Hao's father is gone, his parents said that this child is pitiful, and the things I gave me were all double, one for myself and one for Geng Hao.

When I went back to Beijing that time, my parents said don't be the crime of being crowded on the train, buy a plane ticket. I said, it's okay, we're all happy together.

On the train, we happily reminisce about our childhood, discussing what cup the snake demon in "Hulu Brothers" is, whether Sheriff Black Cat is a virgin, and whether Shuke and Beta are good friends......

Ten years have passed, there are fewer young people in this town, the old people are older, and the older people are old and dead, with WIFI and commercial real estate, the old people will use WiFi. But its temperament has never changed, and the neighborhood and countryside are drifting with rumors and saliva that have not changed for thousands of years.

On the other hand, the moss of the rainy season and the fallen leaves of autumn are still quietly beautiful.

The term "happiness in suffering" is suitable for a certain realm or a certain age group, and I am no longer the passionate hairy boy who just arrived in Beijing, and I don't have the energy to squeeze in the 63-hour super slow train.

Being alone in a town that I was no longer familiar with was like being trapped on an island, and I was depressed.

I had a vague feeling that the disappearance of Wenwu's daughter was mysteriously linked to my return, and that my return had disturbed the peaceful town and alarmed the sleeping evil spirits.

After sleeping back in town, I was woken up by a noisy thrush outside the window. The huge thrush was stealing peanuts from the balcony with impunity, and came to the window in a daze, frightened and flapped its wings and flew away, leaving me alone.

Thinking of the dark shadow that appeared next to the locust tree last night, I had an ominous premonition in my heart. Is it really dazzling, the problem is that I have never been dazzled before, that black shadow is so real, even like a locust tree, it has a texture in the night.

Soon there was a knock on the door, and when I opened the door, I saw Wenwu and Zhou Bo standing outside the door. I thought there was a clue about the little girl's disappearance, so I hurriedly beckoned them in.

They didn't speak when they entered the door, and the atmosphere was a little weird.

I asked, "Any news new?" ”

Zhou Bo frowned: "Xiaoyu, here's the thing, at two o'clock in the morning today, the dog of the Wenwu family was not manic, and barked hard, this roasted wax broke free from the chain like an evil spirit, and the Wenwu chased it and followed it to the back of your house, it shaved and planed behind the locust tree, and took out a little red shoe from the soil......"

I was shocked: "It's a little girl?" ”

Zhou Bo nodded, his expression solemn and full of doubts: "Xiao Wenwen was wearing those shoes on the day he disappeared." ”

I was shocked, frightened and puzzled, why did one of my daughter's shoes be buried behind my house? Who was the shadow behind the locust tree last night?

Wenwu slowly raised his head, his tiredness could not be hidden, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said, "Xiaoyu, I know that you are a good person, do you know anything?" What is hidden? Can you tell me what's going on, my daughter is my life, and I can't live without him. Please, tell me, okay? ”

The more Wenwu spoke, the more excited he became, and finally burst into tears, and suddenly knelt at my feet, took my hand, and asked me to tell him the truth.

He seemed to have lost his mind, and cried, "Why is my daughter gone when you get back to town?" You haven't come back for so many years, why are you coming back now? Xiaoyu, tell me what you know, okay? ”

I was so frightened by him that I was blindfolded, and I was stunned and didn't know what to do.

I don't know when Yoon Deji arrived at the door, apparently having witnessed all of our conversations. He rushed in, grabbed Wenwu's collar, and threw him up and onto the sofa.

Don't look at Yin Deji is lean, but he has a lot of strength, and he has trained his arm strength as a chef. Immediately afterwards, he punched Wenwu in the face, causing him to cover his face and cry.

Yin Deji still wanted to throw a few more punches, and Zhou Bo and I immediately pulled him down. He gasped and said, "Fat Wen, Lao Tzu told you, if you don't look at you, you are older than me, Lao Tzu has to kill you today, and if your daughter is gone, you won't look for it, and come here to cry and mourn." Xiaoyu and I grew up with you, don't you know who we are? ** actually found here. You ......"

I pulled Yin Deji and pressed him to the chair opposite: "Yin Zi, you calm down first." Brother Wenwu, I'm sorry, I didn't hurt you, did I? ”

Yin Deji is very ruthless, and this punch has sobered up the civil and military forces a lot. I handed Wenwu a tissue, he wiped his tears and said, "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry, I was too impulsive just now...... I ......"

I said, "You don't have to say it, I understand." I happened to be back in town on the night of Xiao Wenwen's disappearance, and I was home alone, and there was no evidence of an alibi, so I should indeed be listed as a suspect. ”

Zhou Bo said softly: "Xiaoyu, don't say that, I don't know what you are?" Your family has always been a decent family in the town, your father has helped me a lot before, I watched you grow up, no matter how much I doubt it, I can't suspect you, but I think it's very strange that this red shoe suddenly appeared behind your house. ”

"There are multiple human natures, sometimes I don't understand what kind of person I am, I will fully cooperate with the police investigation, and you can search my house at any time."

"That's not what I meant......" Zhou Bo looked stunned.

I interrupted him: "You guys should dig around those locust trees right away and see if there are any other clues." ”

"Someone has already been arranged." Zhou Bo said.

I went to the window and looked around, and a few policemen were looking around with a wolfdog, and a few others were turning over the earth with tools. The wolf dog was very excited, and he liked to go out to the police, waving his front paws to plan, and what came out was either tree roots or waste paper.

A group of people watching the excitement gathered around and pointed. I said, "Oh no." They all looked at me quizzically.

I said, "I saw a figure behind a tree before I went to bed last night, but I wasn't sure who it was. Now the gang is messing around there and ruining all the footprints and all the clues. ”

Wenwu suddenly became alert: "Have you seen who it is?" ”

"No, it's too dark, and when I rushed down, the people were already gone, and I thought I was dazzled."

Yin Deji relieved himself at this time and said: "I speculate that this black shadow is the perpetrator, he buried the little girl's shoes under the tree behind your house, creating the illusion that the little girl's disappearance is related to you, and the time of the crime was also chosen on the night when you returned to the town, you happened to be home alone, and there was no alibi evidence." ”

Zhou Bozheng touched his chin and pondered: "If it is as Yin Zi said, then this person has a holiday with you and wants to put you and your family in an unkind and unrighteous place." ”

When Yin Deji heard Zhou Bo say this, he became excited again and scolded: "Fuck, this is going to kill people, which turtle grandson Wang Ba is so ruthless, we are innocent, and we have no grudges with anyone in the town." ”

"This person doesn't even count the turtle grandson and the king, damn, if you have something, come directly to Lao Tzu, don't take innocent children, fuck it!" Back in town these days, my heart has been depressed for a long time, and I finally can't help but curse.

Zhou Bo still sat there touching his chin and pondered: "Xiaoyu, no matter who this person is, you have to be careful these days, do you want me to arrange two people to guard you downstairs at night?" ”

"Uncle Zhou, thank you for your kindness, no need, now is the time to employ people, there is no need for me to consume manpower."

Yin Deji said: "You go to live in my house these days, my house is spacious, and my parents miss you too, what if you live here alone, what if there is a mistake?" ”

I sneered: "It's okay, I haven't encountered any demons and monsters, don't do anything wrong, and don't be surprised when I knock on the door in the middle of the night, if this person wants my life early, he may want other things, and I'm more worried about Xiao Wenwen's safety now." ”

Zhou Bo stood up and said to Wenwu: "Xiao Wu, you go out first to see if they have found any clues." ”

Wenwu got up and apologized to me again, saying that he was too irresponsible just now, and asked me to forgive him. I comforted him and said that it was okay, we all thought about the safety of the child, and you understood your feelings.
