Chapter 266: Don't Give Up

Granny Yu was surrounded by a group of aunts, sat on the stone bench in the community, and after waiting for everyone to react, she began to pour beans again: "Don't you know, there are many third-tier and fourth-tier stars who can touch porcelain now, deliberately dress like a popular student, take a photo and post it on the Internet, and then hire a lot of sailors to fry CP......"

Ling Li couldn't help the twitching feeling at the corners of her mouth while listening, she really didn't understand Granny Yu's way, she really didn't understand it, she was in her seventies, how could she make the entertainment gossip of celebrities so clear, more than her, a post-90s generation?

Having said that, now the post-90s generation is also jokingly called an old aunt, and in this world, it has long been a post-00s generation like Zhong Zhuowen.

And Zhong Zhuowen looked at Granny Yu, who was held by the stars, and seemed to be very satisfied, gave Ling Li a thumbs up, and raised her chin to point to the elderly version of the gossip queen, signaling her to hurry up.

Ling Li had no choice but to go up and recognize each other.

She opened the aunts and surrounded her, and before she could think about how to change her mouth, Granny Yu's eyes were fixed on her face, full of surprise.

Ling Li just wanted to open her mouth to call someone, but she didn't expect the familiar loud voice to come out of nowhere: "Hey, second sister?" But the second sister of the Ling family? ”

Half an hour later, the three of them, who were warmly entertained by Granny Yu, obviously realized that they didn't want to make excuses anymore and had to eat here at noon and night today.

As soon as we met at the beginning of the year, Granny Yu's eyes were red, and she said a few words about the Ling family, and then pulled Ling Li to ask long and short questions, and looked at Nan Zhiyi with great interest: "What are you for?" ”

Ling Li's face was flushed with embarrassment, Nan Zhiyi knew that he couldn't take this topic back at the beginning, so he simply didn't respond, just like Granny Yu was not gossiping about him, there was no expression on his face at all, and he was not shocked by the cold and arrogant state.

And Zhong Zhuowen didn't think it was a big deal, and she admitted it, and volunteered to introduce herself as Nan Zhiyi's cousin.

Granny Yu glanced at Zhong Zhuowen, who was pretending to be a family member, and said bluntly: "It's not like this? The little girl is good-looking, but she can't compare to the young man's clear eyebrows and a little extravagant, not like a family. ”

The seemingly unintentional but all-in-one conclusion choked the villain.

Granny Yu warmly invited them home to talk, and in just five minutes from the community, she had already explained her current situation.

Granny Yu now lives alone, and her wife passed away two years ago. The three daughters are all in Nanxi, and they often come to see her, and often persuade her to move in with her.

This can be said to be very filial.

Granny Yu dislikes going to her daughter's house to have someone to take care of her, not letting her chase six TV series and three variety shows a day, and she has to make time to take care of her grandson and granddaughter, which hinders her leisure life in old age, so she resolutely does not live a group life when she can take care of herself.

As for after arriving home, the topic of Granny Yu, who pursues freedom, is even more free-spirited, and she thinks about it one by one, and a lot of fierce news has been exposed.

It's just that she seems to have deliberately avoided the tragic incident in Ling Li's family.

Ling Li was grateful, but she had to mention it.

"Mother-in-law, when there was an accident in my family, did anything strange happen in Ling'an Town? For example, did anyone die suddenly or something? Didn't you say that there was a great flood that year and people died? ”

Ling Li pondered for a while, but still asked.

Granny Yu's face froze, and her eyes looked up, as if she was searching for memories about the past of that year.

After more than ten seconds, her voice returned to briskness: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and it is normal for the three major rivers in Nanxi to have floods, but in previous years, it was said that there was a major epidemic after the catastrophe, and now there is no such statement." I picked it up that year, and when the water was issued, I washed away two or three people who were greedy for a bath in the water on the river beach. ”

Then, she lowered her voice mysteriously: "Second sister, you want to open something, what year won't there be anything strange?" Now I don't dare to say anything strange and confused, but according to me, some things are so evil, some people say that it is the upstream sand digging offended the river god, not to mention the big water, that year your family inexplicably suffered, the son of the old Zhang family on the next street also fell from the third floor at the construction site, high paraplegia and half dead, it is said that a few years ago is gone. Also, do you remember? One year, the barn in Xuejia Village next to the town was burned, and since then the east has not been peaceful, and it is often ......"

After that, the topic couldn't be more crooked, and the usual chatter couldn't stop the trend of developing into supernatural novels, and Ling Li tried several times to drag it back, but to no avail.

In the end, Granny Yu's always logical words began to be confused.

When Ling Li confirmed with her again that there was anything different from previous years that happened that year, Granny Yu's eyes became confused: "Eh? What year did you say it was here? ”

The years are unforgiving, she babbles for two hours without stopping, and finally she is still tired.

Nanzhiyi glanced at her, apparently believing that this place could no longer provide more information.

Ling Li was helpless with tiredness, and finally found a reason to visit other old people, so she got out.

Before they left, Granny Yu was reluctant, holding the door frame and watching them go downstairs, they all walked far away, and Ling Li could see the slightly fat figure of the old man standing on the balcony of her house when she turned around.

Coming out of the Anju community, Ling Li and Nan Zhiyi glanced at each other, and they both saw regretful looks in each other's eyes.

Although Granny Yu gossiped, she didn't remember so many things after eight years.

After all, the capacity of the human brain is limited, she pays attention to so many things every day, at the age of seventy, she is still chasing six dramas a day, coupled with the degenerative brain, the clues of those old things are gradually blurred, which is very normal.

Even if some of the things she knew back then were valuable, they were now buried in a huge pile of information garbage, and they couldn't be dug up.

Zhong Zhuowen had palpitations: "Such gossip, I have maintained my enthusiasm for decades, but unfortunately I was not born to the times." If he was born thirty years later, where would the king of the paparazzi get King Zhuo? ”

Nan Zhiyi looked at the list, and his voice was calm: "Next." ”

After a whole day of running, the gossip kings that Ling Li circled out with his memory did not come in handy.

It's either that no one has been found, or that I can't remember the details of eight years ago.

For example, was there a problem of the flood of strange diseases that year?

This is also Ling Li's inference after Nanzhiyi gave a few key words in the morning.

Since it is determined that rat poison is used to medicine mice, if it is not used to treat rats at home, where should it be used?

Linked to his father's deep house, the only few times he had contact with outsiders that month, once was to go to the grave, once to buy rat poison, and once to quarrel with Zhong Chengheng.

In terms of combined time, has the rat poison that disappeared in their house been used up?

Unfortunately, this was not the focus of the investigation back then, and eight years have passed, and the truth may have long been lost in forgotten memories.

Recalling the clues of running around all day, Ling Li had to admit that their results the next day could be described in four words.

Nothing.

After a tiring day, everything else is fine, but my stomach can't stand hunger anymore.

Ling Li knew that Nan Zhiyi was picky, and he accompanied her back and forth these days, not resting well or eating well, and seeing that he seemed to have lost a little weight.

If he doesn't make up for it, I'm afraid that Tian Zhengyan will see the Nan family doing it when he returns to the country, and she will be the only one who asks.

Quietly checking the place with the food APP, Ling Li held up her mobile phone and signaled to Nanzhiyi: "I need to eat a good meal to replenish my strength." ”

Nan Zhiyi glanced at it and smiled: "Roaster? Grilled fish with black bean curd? For people like you who eat some chili peppers and explode, can you eat them without washing them ten or eight times? I'm not worried that the boss will overcharge us for water, but I'm worried that your tears will become the last drop of water on the earth. ”

Ling Li endured and endured, and finally endured not giving him a Pegasus Meteor Fist.

It's really a word that can ignite her little universe.

Zhong Zhuowen laughed so hard that she had the audacity to stand on Ling Li's side and mock Nan Zhiyi: "Professor Nan, your parents must have given birth to you to take revenge on society, right?" ”

After eating a meal of fresh and spicy grilled fish with bean curd, Ling Li only felt that her lips were so spicy that she lost consciousness.

However, after sweating hard, the boredom of a whole day of futile work was slightly reduced.

On the way back to the park, Zhong Zhuowen seemed a little tired and closed her eyes to take a nap.

She was basically in a state of concentration from time to time throughout the day, as if she was thinking about something, and like she was waiting for something. Occasionally I lowered my head and typed on my phone, and the words were much less than usual.

Nan Zhiyi put his fingers on the window with one hand and pressed his fingers on his temple, and the other hand easily held the steering wheel, as if he was also thinking about something.

Ling Li bit her lip, and finally said, "No, I'm still unwilling." I'd like to ask one more person. ”

At this time, Zhong Zhuowen suddenly smiled, opened her eyes and said without a head: "You said that there are no rats in your house, what about the cemetery?" ”

And Nan Zhiyi, who had been driving all day, turned his head sideways and smiled at her: "Just wait for your sentence, I know who you want to ask, let's go, let's go back." ”

In the night, the dark gray car turned around on the national highway and headed for the city.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Ling Li and his party returned to the Ling family's house that they had visited.

As soon as he opened the door and saw that it was them, Ling Jiacheng's face changed, and then he had an irritated expression: "Why are you again?" I've told you everything I know. ”

Ling Li knew where his reaction came from.

After Zhou Qingchun came once, he committed suicide, and then the police came to the door; After Ling Li came on a trip, another police officer came to the door, and within a few days, Boss Zhu went into the bureau, as if he had explained something, and hid as soon as he got home, which made people reverie.

Now, Ling Li came to visit again, and he didn't know what would happen.

Even if you don't do anything bad and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, the people are still a little afraid and a little evasive about dealing with the public security.

Knowing that he was a little strong, Ling Li smiled a little flatteringly: "Uncle Jiacheng, I know it's annoying for me to pester you like this, but I really don't know who to go to." You are one of the few people who saw my dad that day, and please help me. ”

Ling Jiacheng has never been a person with a heart like iron, seeing that the orphan girl who had a slight blood connection with him came to the door pitifully begging for help, he finally let them in after a sigh.
