Seeming to understand the suspicion in Ye Chen's eyes, Lin Nian said with a smile: "Do you really think that group of gossipy girls know everything?" And, did I say that the missing person is a student here? ”

"I see." Ye Chen suddenly realized, originally, the connection between the students in the school is quite close, they eat together, attend classes together, rest and entertain together, if someone disappears, it will definitely not be so silent. But it's different in society, especially in the city, where most people's circles are quite closed, take her as an example, she has been moving here for several years, but she still doesn't know who lives opposite, and if one day her neighbor disappears, she will never realize it.

Ye Chen put his hand on his cheek and asked curiously, "How is it, what are the results of the investigation?" ”

Lin Nian raised his forehead and said in a tone that was simply defeated by you: "Please, I just came here and didn't do anything, what can I investigate?" I only have some information here that I have researched before, no, right here. Lin Nian took out his mobile phone, clicked on a document, and handed it over.

Ye Chen took it and looked at it, and said while swiping: "Looking at the photo, this is still a child, only twelve years old?" It's so pitiful, it's a pity, it's gone at such a young age. ”

Lin Nian said: "It's a pity? I really don't think there's anything to be sorry for, do you know what life he had before? It's all the sins of the previous generation, his mother ran away with people very early, his father only drinks and beats people, no one else can beat him, he can only beat his own children, and he died in a few years, and I don't know if he drank to death or was beaten to death, anyway, he is helpless, he dropped out of school before he finished junior high school, and he lives by picking up garbage every day, such a day is simply worse than death. ”

Ye Chen put down his phone and said seriously: "Life is better than death, it is better than death, as long as you are alive, there is hope, it is possible to change your fate, if you die, there will be nothing, it doesn't matter if it's good, it doesn't matter if it's bad, there's nothing." ”

Lin Nian raised his eyebrows and said, "Change your fate? Do you think it's possible? Chen, whether you want to admit it or not, the weight of the word 'hard work' is not so heavy, a mistake in choice, an inadvertent negligence, or even just because of temporary bad luck, will turn years or even more than ten years of hard work into ashes, not to mention, he has to face the most helpless fate. Chen, we are not primary school students anymore, we all know that a person's birth has determined the maximum height he can reach in this life, and many people can't catch up with a baby born with a golden key after a lifetime of hard work. I admit that there are some geniuses, and their brilliance is not obscured by any external conditions, but this is only a privilege that only a very small number of people can have, and there may not be a few in a few hundred years. As for this boy specifically, he has already had a terrible start in life, and even the most important and precious fire of life for a person is out of his control, maybe a cold wind will blow and freeze him to death. Even if he struggles to survive to adulthood, what hope is there for the future? He doesn't have a minimum education, and he may not even be able to find a job to contribute, what can he do? This person has been abandoned by society, he has no way out, he can only plunge into the darkness, and find a reason for his life by bullying people who are weaker than him, such a life has nothing to cherish and look forward to. After saying such a long paragraph, Lin Nian's mood was a little excited, and he gasped slightly.

Ye Chen was silent, this kind of collision of ideas was not once or twice, Lin Nian always had a particularly strong pessimistic mood, perhaps because Lin Lian's death brought her too much blow, she always paid more attention to the ugly side of society. Lin Nian and Lin Lian are still different, although the two of them look very similar, their living habits and ways of thinking are also similar, but after all, they are not the same person, Ye Chen will never be able to feel that kind of naturalness and comfort in his relationship with her, she and Lin Nian will become good friends, but they will never be confidants.

Seeing Ye Chen's silent appearance, Lin Nian felt that her words just now were a little heavy, and she changed the topic a little flusteredly and said, "Chen, how is your business here, I haven't seen anyone come in for so long." ”

Ye Chen smiled and said: "Although there are still many unfairness in this world, there is one thing that everyone has to encounter, whether it is a prince or a common person, they cannot escape the harvest of death, this can be regarded as the greatest fairness, think about it like this, do you think that this society is not so sad?" ”

Lin Nian nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, death is the only fairness, and the only thing we can count on." ”

Why do you feel that something is wrong, forget it, Ye Chen said: "It's good that you think so, as for why no one is there now?" It's only past nine o'clock, those who have classes are in class, and those who don't have classes are sleeping, who gets up to go shopping? ”

As soon as Ye Chen's words fell, someone came in in a hurry, and Ye Chen asked, "Xiao Xin, what's wrong, so in a hurry?" ”

Gong Xin picked up the cup in front of Ye Chen, took a dry sip, and took a few breaths before saying: "Something happened, a few boys didn't return all night, they were discovered by the teacher, and they couldn't be contacted, and now they are making a lot of trouble." ”

Ye Chen said: "What's the matter, college students, they are all adults, even if they don't go home at night, they may go to surf the Internet all night, or go to sing, what time is it, it's still early, maybe they'll be back in a while." ”

Gong Xin fanned his chest with his hand and said: "It would be nice if this was the case, but they are going to participate in a competition, and the leading teachers are ready to get on the bus only to find that their team members are missing, this is not as simple as skipping one or two classes, a national competition." ”

Hearing this, Ye Chen also felt that something was wrong, and she asked, "Do you know where they went last night?" ”

Gong Xin said: "I don't know much about the specific situation, but I heard that they went to eat, and said that they were to seize this opportunity to have a good time, but I didn't expect something to happen." The tone was a little anxious.

Ye Chen still smiled, patted Gong Xin's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, a few big living people, can they still be eaten?" ”
