Nightmare 5
Jumping very reluctantly, under the gaze of Yi Letian, he picked up a seemingly stainless steel button from the ground with his fingers wrapped in a tissue, carefully wrapped it in three layers of pure white paper towels, and finally put it in his pocket.
When Jump put the button in his pocket, Yi Lotian searched the room again, and he didn't know what he was looking for. It looks a little like the detective described in the old times, but Yi Lotian is missing a magnifying glass and a bowler hat in his hand at this time, otherwise Jump will definitely think that this person is a character from the detective.
Qi Zixuan had been walking into the room for a while, but he hadn't heard her make a sound, and he didn't know what he was doing in that room. After jumping and putting away the buttons, he walked into the room looking for Qi Zixuan's figure.
This is a bedroom, a room where you can smell the unique fragrance of girls just by standing at the door, so Hop Hop only needs to move his nose and smell it lightly to know that the original owner of this bedroom must be a girl. The bedroom is not very big, but the furniture is neat and orderly, although the wardrobe, bed, dresser and other furniture are placed, I still feel that there is enough space in this bedroom, so that people will not feel that this bedroom looks crowded.
On the wall above the head of the bed hung an artistic photograph of a woman, which was placed very large, at least half a person's height. The woman in the photo is dressed in white, with a wreath woven of flowers on her head, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, and a faint smile hangs on her lips, staring ahead.
The photo of the woman's beautiful face long ago still hangs on the wall, but the girl in the photo has long since left the city and this world with the summer breeze.
The woman in the photo, the more she looks at it, the more she feels that she looks a little similar to Qi Zixuan. Whether it is the eyes or the smile raised at the corner of his mouth, he is very similar to Qi Zixuan, if he doesn't know, maybe he will think that these two are sisters of compatriots.
"Sister Qi, what are you looking for?"
Jumping found Qi Zixuan sitting in front of the dresser, opened all the drawers of the dresser, and didn't know what he was looking for.
Qi Zixuan didn't answer, he still rummaged through himself, and all the cosmetics and makeup tools that were originally contained in the drawers were placed on the dresser, but although several drawers had become empty, Qi Zixuan still didn't seem to find the item he was looking for. He shook his head at the round mirror on the dresser, as if sighing for something.
Who took her heart, who left her life, where to find the smile that was once lost.
"Sister Qi, you say something, don't scare me, okay?"
Jumping couldn't help but worry about Qi Zixuan, Qi Zixuan seemed to be in a world of his own self, completely ignoring the people around him.
Qi Zixuan still ignored Jump, as if she had become depressed because she hadn't found what she was looking for, sitting in front of the mirror and shaking her head incessantly, sometimes sighing, sometimes fiddling with the bits and pieces on the dresser. Suddenly, Qi Zixuan seemed to remember something, suddenly stood up from the chair, hurriedly threw off the shoes on his feet, and climbed onto the bed.
A puff of dust immediately rose on the bed, jumped and coughed a few times, and subconsciously took two steps back. Qi Zixuan seemed to be in vain about all this, and stood on the bed and took down the photo on the wall.
There is a hollow lattice at the back of the photo, and a crimson box is placed in the lattice, because it is a little far away, it is impossible to visually determine what kind of material the box is. There are some reliefs on the crimson box, but it looks antique, and I don't know what secrets are contained in it, but it must be related to the woman named Fang Juan.
After noticing that there was less dust in the air in the bedroom, Jump Jump walked into the room and opened the window. Qi Zixuan knelt on the bed holding the crimson box, which seemed to be her beloved object, and after she was lost and recovered, she never wanted to let go of her hand.
"Juanjuan, is that you?"
An unfamiliar voice came in from outside the house, and it seemed to be an old lady. In a few seconds, at the door of the bedroom stood an old white-haired lady on crutches, her age already engraved on her old face. Jumping and Qi Zixuan were both startled at the same time, looking at the old lady outside the door and not knowing what to say.
"Juanjuan, are you back?"
The old lady asked again, squinting at the two girls in the bedroom, trying to tell them apart.
"Yan ...... Grandma Yan? ”
Qi Zixuan also looked at the old lady for a long time, and only after a long time did he dare to ask tentatively, or uncertainly.
"It's really Juanjuan, Juanjuan, you're really back. Your mom and dad ......, hey. ”
As soon as the old lady said in the twilight, she sighed again, and the cane in her hand struck twice on the ground.
"You know?"
Jumping pointed to the old lady on crutches at the door, and then pointed to Qi Zixuan, who was kneeling on the bed and holding the box, and asked suspiciously.
Qi Zixuan didn't answer at this time, just sat quietly on the bed, looked at the box in his hand, and then looked at the old lady again, as if he wanted to hear what she said. The old lady was also silent, and stood for a long time without saying a word. The jumping on the side was stunned, not knowing what the two wanted to do, but he didn't dare to interject.
"Juanjuan, when did you come back, whose child is this little girl?"
The old lady finally couldn't help it, opened her mouth and asked, and then looked at the jumping on the side.
The old lady didn't seem to have a good look in her eyes, and she regarded Qi Zixuan as Miss Fang Juan here. The old lady walked towards the bed where Qi Zixuan was sitting as she spoke, her rickety back making her obviously extremely short. In Jumping's view, every step that the old lady took was extremely difficult, but she still had to move forward on crutches, as if there was something important she wanted to tell Zixuan (Fang Juan).
"Juanjuan, your parents have passed away, you should mourn and change, people can't be resurrected after death, you must live well. I heard that the police had found the murderer of your parents, but for some unknown reason, they let him go. You have always been a good boy, and you must help your parents avenge their grievances. ”
The old lady leaned her crutches on the edge of the bed, stretched out her skinny hands, and pulled Qi Zixuan and said.
"Yan ...... Grandma Yan, but there is no evidence at all, and now the police are arresting people to talk about evidence. And that night, no one saw the murderer commit the murder at all. Without witnesses, without physical evidence, the police will not arrest people. ”
Qi Zixuan's eyes were suddenly full of sadness, and his voice choked up.
"Good will be rewarded, evil will be rewarded, it is not that it will not be rewarded, the hour has not yet come. God will always open his eyes. ”
This sentence came out of the old lady's mouth, but it was righteous and strict, and there was no pretentiousness at all.
Yi Lotian didn't know when he also stood at the door of the bedroom, with his hands in his pockets, listening quietly to the conversation between the old and the young. The old lady's words made the bedroom quiet again, and there was no sound for a long time.
"Old lady, I have something I want to ask you, do you know who sent Miss Fang to the hospital?"
Yi Letian, who was standing at the door of the bedroom, suddenly asked.
"Who is this young man, is it Juanjuan, your boyfriend?"
The old lady's eyes were so bad that she narrowed her eyes into a slit as she spoke, trying to see the face of the man at the door. Immediately, the old lady shook her head again and denied: "No, I remember that Juanjuan's boyfriend is taller than this young man, not as thin as this young man." ”
"Grandma, have you ever met Sister Fang's boyfriend?"
As soon as she heard the old lady say that Yi Letian was not Fang Juan's boyfriend, she was immediately sure that she had seen each other, and immediately asked.
"I've seen it, didn't Juanjuan bring it back last time, although I've only seen it once, but I haven't had presbyopia, I can still see what that young man looks like."
The old lady actually said that she didn't have presbyopia, and Hopping almost laughed on the spot, but looking at Yi Letian with a serious face, Hopping still didn't dare to laugh, just bit her lip tightly and laughed silently in her heart.
"Grandma Yan, do you know who sent the ...... at that time Took me to the hospital, I want to thank him in person. ”
Of course, Qi Zixuan knew that Yi Letian asked the old lady this question, and there would definitely be his purpose, so he patted the back of the old lady's hand and asked softly.
"I don't know very well, but I heard that the person in the building opposite called for an ambulance, and it seemed to be a young man. If you want to go to Xie Ren's house, go to the building opposite and ask. ”
The old lady didn't seem to know very well, and it seemed unlikely that she could get some news from the old lady. When the old lady left, she didn't say anything, just patted the back of Qi Zixuan's hand a few times, and left Professor Fang's house on crutches.
"Let's go, go to the building across the street and take a look, maybe the guy who called the ambulance saw something that night."
Yi Letian knocked twice on the door frame and said to the two girls in the room.
The three of them used almost the most stupid method, knocking on doors from house to house, asking repetitive questions over and over again. Even when someone opened the door, most of them shook their heads and sighed, not wanting to mention the incident two months ago. And more people answered them with the word "I don't know", and the three of them couldn't help but feel a little lost and disappointed.
Hopping couldn't remember how many doors they knocked on, and they couldn't even tell what floor they were on now. Qi Zixuan, who was on the side, had not spoken since he left Professor Fang's house, just holding the carved box, looking down a few times from time to time, and gently stroking it with his hand to confirm that the box was still in his hand.
"Ding Dong", the old doorbell fell back in the entire corridor, and in the lonely corridor, the doorbell was extraordinarily loud, as if it was knocking on someone's heart door.
