For the next few days, the torture technique was sitting in the pawnshop, he needed to wait for Zhang Shuyun, and he needed to fulfill his promise to Pan Feng. %し

A few days later, Zhang Shuyun appeared as scheduled, and with her was Dong Guoyi, Dong Guozhi didn't say anything, but took the lead in handing over Pan Feng's letter to him, and then said, "I'm waiting outside the door." ”

Dong Guozhi left and stood at the door of the pawnshop, he deserved to be the person brought out by Fu Mingwei, although he was principled, he was not unkind.

Xingshu looked at Zhang Shuyun in front of him, this female college student was dressed very plainly, but he didn't know why, he felt that Zhang Shuyun and Xia Jiezhu were a little similar, but it was not the appearance, but the feeling. At the moment when he saw the golden body of Xia Jiezhu's corpse, he felt that Xia Jiezhu had an indescribable specialness on his body, and similarly, Zhang Shuyun also had it.

How so? If I had to describe it, it should be a kind of warmth that can make you feel at ease.

Zhang Shuyun is very quiet, it can also be said that the quiet is a little scary, this kind of quietness is not only in behavior, but also in a kind of inner temperament tranquility.

Waiting for Dong Guozhi to leave, Zhang Shuyun first bowed to the torture technique, and said softly: "Mr. Xing, I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you." Immediately after, she slowly took out a bank card from the leather satchel and handed it over, "There are a total of 200,000 here, Pan Feng said, 50,000 of which he has saved from his work over the years, and the rest of the money is earned by Qi Baye taking him to do business, in fact, there is more than that, and there is also some money that he donated to the orphanage with Qi Baye in his early years." ”

Torture accepted the card: "I know what to do, now what are you going to do?" ”

Zhang Shuyun lowered his head: "I have already reported the case, saying that he kidnapped me, this is his request and wish." ”

The torture technique said lightly: "It is a crime to report a false case. ”

Zhang Shuyun did not answer the question of torture directly: "There is one more thing, I did not do what he asked. ”

"What?" The torturer immediately asked, realizing that there might be something else hidden?

"He has a set of diaries, and I asked him to burn them, and I secretly read them and feel that they should not be burned, and that you should be entrusted with giving them to his mother, his biological mother." Zhang Shuyun said and took out some bound books from his shoulder bag, which should not be called a notebook, it should be said that there are many homework books, plus several notebooks bound together, and there is a shell made of cardboard on the surface.

Torture nodded and took it: "I see." ”

Zhang Shuyun got up and bowed again: "Thank you, goodbye." ”

Torture also immediately got up: "Goodbye." ”

Xingshu stood at the door, watched Zhang Shuyun open the door, nodded to Dong Guozhi, Dong Guozhi also stood at the door and nodded to Xingshu, and then led Zhang Shuyun to leave slowly.

Xingshu looked at Zhang Shuyun's back, as if he felt that what he saw was Xia Jiezhu, otherwise, why would Pan Feng be with her? Why was she so willing to do those things for Pan Feng? Thinking of this, Torture's gaze fell on the diaries on the table.

Xingshu walked to the table, picked it up and put it down, and finally put it in the safe, and then his eyes fell on the peerless painting next to him, Xingshu looked at the painting and picked up the phone and dialed Wu Zhihai, but Wu Zhihai told him that he was on the way to the antique city, and let Xingshu wait.

Half an hour later, Wu Zhihai in a suit and leather shoes appeared at the door of the pawnshop, although the two met for the first time, Wu Zhihai acted as if he had known criminal art for many years, and there was no politeness when strangers met, and said directly: "I can take you to Zhang Yuxia now, if you have time." ”

Torture nodded: "Okay." ”

Subsequently, Wu Zhihai drove the torture to Xiangfang District, on the way, the torture still opened Pan Feng's letter, and found that the so-called letter was very short, plus the two words that were blacked out, a total of eleven words, the first two words were written "mother", and then they were blacked out, and the three words "Xia Jiezhu" were rewritten in the back, and after the colon, it was written "I'm sorry, I was wrong." ”

The moment he looked at this letter, he suddenly realized something, he found that he had been wrong all along, it should be said that he and Fu Mingwei were wrong, they completely misjudged the relationship between Pan Feng and Xia Jiezhu.

"Here we are." Wu Zhihai parked the car on the side of the garden in a certain community, pointed to the middle-aged woman in the garden who was holding a baby less than a year old and looked to be in her early fifties, "That's her, she is Pan Feng's biological mother Zhang Yuxia, more than 20 years ago, Zhang Yuxia was an ordinary female worker, very beautiful, but the reputation in the factory was not good, I heard that her private life was chaotic, and she had affairs with many men, when she gave birth to Pan Feng, she was not married, claiming to be looking for Pan Feng's father, this trip is more than 20 years, I asked a friend to investigate in detail, Zhang Yuxia changed a more foreign name after the past, worked in the dance hall, followed a boss as a second wife, and later corrected, gave birth to a son, and then returned to his hometown...... She is now holding her grandson. ”

Xingshu looked at Zhang Yuxia, who was teasing the child there with a kind face, and asked, "What about Pan Feng?" ”

"I don't know, at that time, the people in the factory thought that she had taken Pan Feng away." Wu Zhihai shook his head and said, "Actually, only she and Pan Feng know, I went to ask the Civil Affairs Bureau, and the Civil Affairs Bureau said that when I found Pan Feng, Pan Feng hid in the trash can alone and didn't say a word." ”

Xingshu still looked at Zhang Yuxia, Wu Zhihai didn't speak, the two sat in the car, and after a long time, Xingshu shook his head and said, "Let's go." ”

Wu Zhihai also nodded: "Yes, why is there any need to go?" ”

At this time, the torture technique recalled the conversation he had with Pan Feng on the phone in the mirror house-

"Mr. Xing, are your parents good to you?"

"I was adopted, I hadn't met my father, and although there was a picture of my mother, I still had a very vague impression of her."

"Do you feel hurt by this?"

"Nope."

"You're lying!"

Torture put the letter and the bank card in his pocket, and said to himself, "Yes, I lied. ”

Wu Zhihai looked at the torture technique with strange eyes, and the torture technique just whispered: "Let's go." ”

While Wu Zhihai started the car to leave, he said: "When I found Zhang Yuxia back then, Pan Feng went to see him, I watched him walk towards Zhang Yuxia from a distance, I could feel it, Pan Feng hoped that Zhang Yuxia could recognize him." Because, no matter how many years the mother and son have been separated, the mother can definitely recognize her child at a glance. ”

Yes, that's Mother.

But the torture didn't know that the situation at that time was - Zhang Yuxia confirmed Pan Feng, and Pan Feng also saw it in her eyes, but at that moment, Zhang Yuxia suddenly turned around and fled in another direction, walking fast, and soon disappeared from Pan Feng's sight.

And Pan Feng stood there, still holding the fruit he bought for his mother, and the smile slowly disappeared from his face.

Sitting in the car, he watched Zhang Yuxia in the reversing mirror gradually disappear and blur, at this moment, he decided to forget about it, forget that he had been here, forget that he had seen Zhang Yuxia, and forget everything he knew from Wu Zhihai.

However, there was a thought lingering in his mind - if Zhang Yuxia and Pan Feng had recognized each other, would not have happened later?

This world is not supposed to be like this.

After returning to the pawnshop, the torture began to look through the diary left by Pan Feng, and many of the beginnings of the diary were written in pinyin, because Pan Feng at that time couldn't write Chinese characters correctly, and some of the things he wanted to write were basically written in pinyin, and the torture was very difficult to read, but after he finished reading the first tenth of the diary, he finally pieced together the truth about the "mother and son separation" twenty years ago, and what he wanted to know most about the relationship between Pan Feng and Xia Jiezhu-

In the early morning more than 20 years ago, Xiao Pan Feng was woken up from bed by Zhang Yuxia, Zhang Yuxia slowly dressed Xiao Pan Feng and dressed him a lot, which was twice the clothes he wore when he went out on weekdays. And Xiao Pan Feng just muttered that he didn't want to go to kindergarten, Zhang Yuxia didn't say a word, just took a bag of milk and snacks bought yesterday from the dilapidated kitchen cupboard and stuffed them into Xiao Pan Feng's small schoolbag, and then led Xiao Pan Feng out.

The snow was heavy in the early morning, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground, although Xiao Pan Feng was a child born in the north, he still had no resistance to the snowflakes floating in the sky, he waved his hands and tried to catch those beautiful snowflakes, like chasing a cat that could never catch the light and shadow.

And Zhang Yuxia just walked behind him slowly, and after walking for a long time, Xiao Pan Feng finally realized that Zhang Yuxia was not taking him to go to kindergarten on weekdays, he turned around and looked at Zhang Yuxia with puzzled eyes, and asked crisply: "Mom, don't we go to kindergarten?" ”

Zhang Yuxia shook her head and reluctantly smiled: "Don't go, take you to play." ”

"Great!" Xiao Pan Feng jumped up happily, because he was most afraid of going to kindergarten, when he first entered kindergarten, he cried for a week, and every day he looked at the kindergarten door, waiting for his mother to pick him up.

Zhang Yuxia walked slowly, Xiao Pan Feng jumped in front, got up by himself after falling down several times, turned around and smirked at Zhang Yuxia, but Zhang Yuxia always had a cold face, without the slightest smile, and even hatred in her eyes.

After a long time, Zhang Yuxia took Xiao Pan Feng to the frozen river, she stopped, pointed to the river and said: "Let's compete to see who runs to the other end first, if you win, I will buy you a box of big white pears and cook dumplings for you." ”

"Really!?" Xiao Pan Feng looked at Zhang Yuxia in surprise, because even the most common big white pear drink at that time, as well as the dumplings that ordinary people could afford, in his eyes, were extremely luxurious.

Zhang Yuxia just nodded numbly, then squeezed out a smile and stood side by side with Xiao Pan Feng.

"Prepare for ......" Zhang Yuxia was about to shout the password, Xiao Pan Feng suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Yuxia, and Zhang Yuxia also looked at him.

Xiao Pan Feng stood on tiptoe, approached to see Zhang Yuxia, and said at the same time: "Mom, are you unhappy?" Am I not good and make you angry? ”

Zhang Yuxia shook her head: "No, don't think about it, come on, prepare!" ”

Zhang Yuxia's tone was impatient, Xiao Pan Feng nodded, and a big white pear drink and steaming dumplings appeared in front of him again.

"Ready, run!" Zhang Yuxia ran forward, deliberately ran a few steps, and then slowed down, while Xiao Pan Feng ran desperately in the snow that was almost up to his knees, running desperately, not noticing that his mother had stopped.

"Come on!" Zhang Yuxia shouted like this, Xiao Pan Feng waved his hands and continued to run forward, and at this time, Zhang Yuxia turned around and ran towards the river bank, running without looking back.

Xiao Pan Feng who was running was finally tired, his face was red from the cold, and the cold wind of winter was like a sharp blade to stop him from moving forward, he stopped, panting and said, "I won!" ”

As he spoke, Xiao Pan Feng turned around and looked behind him, he didn't see Zhang Yuxia, he only saw a white expanse, and even the snow on the river behind him was only his footprints, long, shattered footprints.

"Mom?" Xiao Pan Feng shouted in a low voice, then stood in place and looked around, and raised his voice again, "Mom-"

Xiao Pan Feng began to run towards the river bank, shouting as he ran, fell down several times, his neck and cuffs were filled with snow, and he began to cry and shout loudly, but his voice was soon swallowed up by the cold wind.

Far away, Zhang Yuxia vaguely heard Xiao Pan Feng's cry, she stopped, and just as she was about to turn around to look, she gritted her teeth and accelerated her pace to move forward, from walking to fast walking, from fast walking to running, and finally running and running again - as if Xiao Pan Feng, who was looking for him, was not her son at all, her little angel, but a demon who would drag her down.

Just like more than 20 years later, when Pan Feng found her and wanted to recognize her, she turned around and fled.

"Mom, I will definitely listen to you in the future, I don't drink big white pears anymore, I don't eat dumplings anymore, I don't want anything, I just want Mom, I'm obedient, I'm obedient!" Xiao Pan Feng rolled and crawled, ran to the bank of the river with the snow all over his body, cried loudly there, and looked helplessly at both ends of the road on the riverbank, "Mom, Mom, I beg you, Mom, I don't want anything, I go to kindergarten obediently, I don't want you to tell stories at night, Mom-"

On that day, Xiao Pan Feng suddenly became an orphan, and he never understood why his mother was gone? When he was still a child, he simply thought that his mother was angry with him...... Is it because you're too greedy? Or does he always ask his mom for toys when he walks into the store? In any case, he ignored that from the moment Zhang Yuxia decided to abandon him and start her new life, in the conversation with him, she subconsciously deleted the title of "mother" and replaced it with a simple "I".

Later, when Xiao Pan Feng really realized that he was abandoned by his mother, it was one day a year after he came to the Yulan Orphanage - that day, he sat at the door of the orphanage in a daze, expecting his mother to pick him up as before, but until the evening, he did not see the woman, but saw Xia Jiezhu, who was still so cute and beautiful even though she was in rags.

When Xia Jiezhu walked into the orphanage, the first person she saw was Pan Feng, she smiled at Pan Feng, and Pan Feng, who hadn't spoken for a long time and hadn't smiled, just looked at her blankly, with a disappointed face.

At this moment, Wang Yulan walked out of the door and asked the two Civil Affairs Bureau staff who brought Xia Jiezhu here: "What is the situation with this child?" ”

"It's a mute, and it seems that there is a problem with his eyes, so he was thrown away by his family." The staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau sighed, "How can your own child be ruthless?" These people should be thrown into prison if they are caught! ”

Xia Jiezhu, who was a few years older than Xiao Pan Feng, was already sensible, and she knew exactly what was going on, but when she heard the phrase "throw it into prison", Xia Jiezhu grabbed the staff and shook it, shook her head slightly, and told the other party not to do that.

At the same time, Xiao Pan Feng, who heard the words clearly, stood up, stared at Wang Yulan and the people from the Civil Affairs Bureau with wide eyes, and then tears rolled out of his eyes, and they rolled out one after another, soaking the clothes on his chest in an instant.

No crying, no shouting, just tears.

"Mom......" Xiao Pan Feng slowly sat down on the steps and said, "Mom threw me away." ”

Xia Jiezhu walked out between the staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau and Wang Yulan, walked to Xiao Pan Feng, opened her arms and hugged Xiao Pan Feng, and hugged her so tightly.

At that moment, Pan Feng smelled his mother's smell on Xia Jiezhu's body.

That day was Pan Feng's birthday.

That year, Xia Jiezhu was 7 years old and Pan Feng was 4 years old.

Since then, Xia Jiezhu has become Pan Feng's mother, his little mother.

……

When the torturer saw this, he was already out of breath, he closed the diary and sat there in a daze.

Wrong, it was wrong from the beginning, Pan Feng was not in love with Xia Jiezhu, but a mother-son relationship, a strange but very warm mother-son relationship, which is why when Ji Dewu and Xia Jiezhu fell in love, Pan Feng seemed so happy.

The relationship between the three of them back then was not so complicated, but the relationship between father, mother and son.

Xingshu picked up the phone and wanted to tell Fu Mingwei, but he found that he didn't even have the strength to take the phone, so he had to sit there and let the uncontrollable tears fall, perhaps, because of empathy......

The torture technique finally dialed Fu Mingwei's phone and solved his doubts.

Fu Mingwei listened: "Originally, his hatred for Ji Dewu was his son's hatred for his father, and he resented his father for not being able to protect his mother, I think, this is why, he didn't really do anything to Ji Dewu, but ended up with Ji Dewu cutting off his ten fingers." ”

Xingshu sat there weakly, holding the phone and said, "Officer Fu, you said that if there were only good people and bad people in this world, how good would it be, in that case, it would be much simpler." ”

Fu Mingwei said calmly: "Actually, in this world, there are only two kinds of people, men and women......

"No!" "In addition to men and women, there are fathers and mothers. ”

Fu Mingwei hesitated on the other end of the phone for a while, and then said, "Good night." ”

Xingshu then hung up the phone, Fu Mingwei on the other end put down the phone, originally wanted to find a cigarette to light him, put it down again, took out his mobile phone and set the alarm clock at seven o'clock in the morning, and wrote the words "go to the tomb to see my mother" on the alarm clock reminder event.

In the pawnshop on this side, Torture curled up there, staring blankly at the darkness ahead, although he would go to his mother's grave almost every once in a while to clean up and worship, although there were pictures of his mother on the tombstone and in his wallet, but he didn't know why, his mother's appearance became more and more blurred, he was afraid that one day, when he woke up and looked at the photo in his wallet, he didn't know who the woman in the photo was.

If he really could, he would rather never get involved in Pan Feng's incident.

But, as he himself said, it is not the future that is out of reach, but the past.
