Chapter 2 The Pastry Chef's Request

When the senior sister came back from the bathroom, she smiled apologetically at the two of us and said, "I'm really sorry for the big weekend for the two of you." โ€

"It's nothing" Although I felt a little uncomfortable being used, I politely motioned to my senior sister to continue.

"Actually, I need your help this time from 3 years ago." The senior sister crossed her fingers with her hands, looking a little hurried. 3 years ago, wasn't it just when my senior sister graduated and went to Italy? Receiving my puzzled looks, Senior Sister Liu Yi didn't have the embarrassment just now, but squinted and smiled, and then said, "Yes, that's what happened the year I graduated." In other words, it has something to do with us. โ€

"Huh? I don't remember what happened in the year my senior sister graduated? โ€

The senior sister suddenly became embarrassed again: "It's not a club matter, it's my private matter." โ€

"Private?" I'm more curious.

"Well, it's about my boyfriend at the time." The senior sister's face turned red.

"Senior sister had a boyfriend at the time? It's weird, I don't even know. What happened to Senpai's boyfriend? "Really, when I met my senior sister, I never saw my senior sister get close to any boy, even if it was a boy in the club, it didn't have a particularly good relationship.

"My boyfriend is not a student at school, he is someone from outside." The senior sister was suddenly silent when she said this, and turned her head to look at Li Jing.

Someone out there? Who is it? I stared at my senior sister in surprise, and I had a little guess in my heart that made me feel uncomfortable.

"You mean the adults outside, right?" Li Jing took the conversation knowingly, and it can be regarded as an explanation for my doubts. Sure enough, as I just guessed, the outsider that the senior sister was referring to was the strange uncle who drove to pick up the beautiful sisters in the school every night at the school gate. I puffed out my cheeks, not knowing how to respond to the bombshell.

"At that time, when I entered school, my family conditions were not good, so in order not to increase the burden on my family, I worked part-time, and I happened to meet my uncle. It is really expensive to study anatomy, and it takes a lot of time to endorse and do practical work, and if I continue to work part-time, it may be really too much burden for my studies. At that time, my uncle was very good to me, helped me pay for my tuition and living expenses, and relieved me of a lot of burdens, so naturally I was with him, which was a kind of reward for me. I'm sorry to tell you such a shameful thing. "When I said this, I kept looking out the window and didn't look me in the eye.

I felt that maybe my reaction was too big, which really made the senior sister feel uncomfortable, so I quickly sorted out my expression and tone, and asked the senior sister: "Is the senior sister still with the uncle now?" โ€

The senior sister smiled bitterly when she heard my question: "No, the year I graduated, my uncle's wife found out about our relationship and was going to come to the school to talk to our department head about me." The uncle stopped her, and then helped me go through the formalities of going abroad, saying that I was going to go abroad to avoid for a while, and I don't know what happened later. โ€

"You weren't in touch with you abroad?" Li Jing asked.

"No, he threw me right in Italy and disappeared completely. At the beginning of Italy, I had no job and no language, and my place was kicked out because I had no money to continue paying rent, so I had to rely on illegal work to support myself. But luckily, I met a kind grandmother, who is also Chinese, and her son has a small restaurant in Italy that allows me to help. It was at that time that my life finally got better. I can cook, in addition to helping to clean up the table and stuff, sometimes I also help with the cooking, and I also learn some Italian dessert recipes while I help. Later, I saved some money and went to Milan to learn baking at a pastry school, and after 2 years, I graduated and saved some savings, so I had the opportunity to return to China. When the senior sister said this, she kept staring at her hands, opening her hands for a while, and clenching her hands slightly into fists for a while.

"Why didn't the senior sister contact her family? There's always a way to live a less hard life. "As soon as the words came out, I regretted it, I remember that some members of the club seemed to have mentioned that the senior sister seems to have a very mysterious family background, recalling that the senior sister said that her family background is not very good, it should be that the senior sister doesn't want the family to see her wolf bรจi look worried, thinking of this, I quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, senior sister, I can't talk more than my brain." โ€

Sure enough, Senior Sister's expression became very embarrassed, and it took a while for a while before she spoke: "It's okay." I really couldn't get in touch at the time. โ€

"You didn't try to contact the uncle you said?" Li Jing asked a senior sister.

"I tried, but I couldn't contact my uncle anymore, and I couldn't reach him after he left me alone in Italy. At first, the mobile phone number was not answered, and then the mobile phone was simply turned off. The last time I contacted him, the number was empty. So from then on, I knew that I would never be able to contact him again, and I was completely dead. The senior sister took a sip of the tea in the cup and said casually.

I helped my sister refill the empty cup, and the sister said thank you and continued to turn her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while, Li Jing drank all the water in the cup, motioned for me to fill it up, and turned his eyes to the senior sister: "Then you will call us here, do you want us to help you find the man who left you in Italy?" โ€

The senior sister looked back, looking like she wanted to say something, she should have struggled in her heart for a while, and said slowly: "Well, I want to see him again." โ€

"Don't you think you should take a lesson and stop bothering people?" Li Jing asked rhetorically, the tone was not particularly good, I kicked him, Li Jing didn't react, but he didn't ask again.

"No, it's not." Senior Sister Liu Yi waved her hand, "I didn't mean to disturb him. And I really can't bother him anymore. โ€

"Why?" If you don't want to bother, I can still understand, what does it mean not to bother?

"Because he's dead." Senior Sister Liu Yi finally took her eyes off the quilt and looked at us opposite.

I should have reacted the same as Li Jing's, my eyes suddenly widened. Seeing the reaction of the two of us, the senior sister sighed: "When I returned to China, I went to the place where we used to live, and this house was secretly bought by himself outside, and now it is rented out to someone else." In desperation, in order to find him, I had to find an agent for the reason of renting a house, and asked the agent to help him look at the house. As soon as I was scared, I ran away secretly, and when the agent called, I reasoned that I didn't go again because I had something to do. I was afraid that his wife would find me through an intermediary, so I changed my mobile phone number and went to open a store in another city. Recently, I thought that the limelight might have passed, so I went to the community to inquire about the owner's information, only to find out that the uncle died 1 year ago. โ€

"Dead? Why did you die? I asked curiously.

"Suicide. The specific way of suicide is different for everyone, but suicide is a fact that everyone affirms. โ€

"Then what do you want us to check for you?" People are dead and can't see each other again, so why do you obsess over this for so long?

"I want you to help me find out the real cause of his death." The senior sister threw out a sentence coldly.
