Chapter 163: What's Behind the Photos
Bai Jie saw that I was looking in one direction, so she couldn't help but come up to me and ask, "What are you looking at?" ”
I replied, "Look at the pictures on the walls." ”
Bai Jie listened to me and followed my gaze towards the wall.
Then she saw two black and white photos hanging on the wall, one was from Grandma Bai Jie and the other was from Grandpa Bai Jie.
Bai Jie and I briefly explained a few words.
Said it was her grandparents.
I said yes, and I then said to Bai Jie, do you think your father will hide some important things behind the photo.
My words made Bai Jie pause for a few seconds, and Bai Jie quickly said to me: "No, this is my grandparents' last photo, won't my father hide things behind their photos?" ”
I thought about it for a while, and said to Bai Jie a little embarrassed: "Bai Jie, can you take down the photos of your grandparents offended?" ”
I know that's too much to ask.
It's just that I just searched almost all the corners of this old house, and there is almost nothing, if there is any place that I haven't found, I'm afraid it's the only one that hasn't been found.
Bai Jie didn't answer me immediately, but stood in place and didn't move for a while.
I knew that Bai Jie was thinking about this now, so I didn't bother Bai Jie.
After about a minute, Bai Jie replied to me, "Then take it off, but you must be careful." ”
Bai Jie and I promised that we would not damage the photo.
After we said yes, and without delay, I quickly found a chair, which I stood on and began to take pictures from.
Bai Jie told me to be careful.
I replied to Bai Jie, yes.
After I took the photo above, Bai Jie continued the photo below, and when the first photo was taken off, I saw that there was nothing behind the wall.
Feeling a little disappointed, I then took the second photo off with my hands, and there was still nothing on it.
I began to be completely disappointed, and it seemed that I had guessed wrong.
But I still said to Bai Jie: "Bai Jie, do you see what is in the frame?" ”
Bai Jie looked for it and quickly replied to me, "No." ”
I paused for a few seconds, was there really nothing?
I looked back at the wall where the photo was hung, and I looked at the wall, and then I noticed that the place where the photo was hung seemed to be much newer than the rest of the place.
The rest of the place looks a little old, and the walls of the two places are much newer in comparison.
Although the place where the photo is hung should be new, this wall is a little too new.
It is clear that the walls here have been repainted.
Could it be that there is something hidden inside?
I raised my hand and knocked on the wall, then on the wall next to me.
After comparing the two places, I was basically sure that the walls here were hollow.
When I found out about this, I was a little excited.
I said to Bai Jie, "I have made a new discovery? ”
Bai Jie listened to me, looked up at me, and asked me, "What did you find?" ”
"Behind this wall is hollow."
I quickly replied to Bai Jie.
A look of surprise appeared on Bai Jie's face.
I got down from above, and after asking Bai Jie's consent, I found the fear of taking advantage of the Bai family's old house, and I was ready to open the wall.
It wasn't hard to break through the wall, I took the tool and divided it by two.
Sure enough, there was a space hidden inside, and there were things in it, so I reached inside to get something, and soon took out a flat box from inside, which looked like the iron box that used to hold the kind of wafer biscuits.
I took the iron box down, but I didn't rush to open it.
I first found a new wall and rehung the portraits of Bai Jie's grandparents.
After hanging up, Bai Jie and I were ready to open the iron box.
Of course, this iron box was left by Bai Jie's father, of course, Bai Jie had to open it, Bai Jie didn't hesitate for too long, and opened the iron box directly.
After the iron box was opened, I vaguely smelled a faint smell inside.
It is the smell of rust.
And there are a few simple things inside.
One of them is a key.
Then there was a letter, Bai Jie took the letter in her hand and quickly read it carefully.
Bai Jie looked at it, I found that her eyes gradually turned red, and after a while, tears began to fall down like pearls with broken threads.
I found a tissue and handed it to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie wiped her tears and handed me the letter.
I was stunned for a few seconds, looking at Bai Jie with a little doubt in my eyes, I asked Bai Jie, "Can I watch it?" ”
Bai Jie nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Since Bai Jie said that I could read it, I didn't hesitate to take the letter from Bai Jie's hand, which was a suicide note left by Bai Jie's father to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie's father called Bai Jie Jie'er.
This is enough to see how much Bai Jie's father loves Bai Jie.
Behind are some instructions from Bai Jie's father to Bai Jie.
Every sentence is deeply touching and makes people feel emotional.
She instructed Bai Jie to be an upright and independent girl, and asked Bai Jie to be filial to her mother.
The strange thing is that between the lines, Bai Jie's father didn't mention it, so that Bai Jie was good to herself.
I subconsciously looked down at the payment time.
After I saw the payment time, I opened my mouth and said, "Bai Jie, was this letter written two months ago?" ”
Bai Jie was originally immersed in sad emotions, but when she heard this, she suddenly seemed to be in good spirits, and soon said to me, "What did you say? ”
Bai Jie looked shocked.
I repeated what I had just said, and then handed the paper to Bai Jie.
Bai Jie took the letter from my hand, and after looking at the time of payment, she was instantly dumbfounded, and she said with a shocked face: "This is impossible, my dad has been dead for a year or two." ”
Bai Jie's voice was full of surprise.
Been dead for a year or two? And the letter was signed two months ago?
My heart also made waves, and I said to Bai Jie: "Could this letter be a prank by someone?" ”
Bai Jie's eyes were shocked, and then I heard Bai Jie say, "Probably not." ”
"Why not?"
I asked quickly.
"The handwriting on this letter, I can be absolutely sure, is my father's handwriting."
Bai Jie said with a serious face.
Her words also shocked my heart.
"Could it be that your dad isn't dead?"
I couldn't help but blurt it out.
Bai Jie shook her head, and then said, "Take a look at the rest of the things in Li." ”
Bai Jie's voice became a little faster.
