The man he had accidentally bumped into just now ran as fast as he could, as if something terrible was chasing him behind him, and in a short time he turned into a corner and lost his shadow.

Shen Xueyao frowned with some confusion and puzzlement, but she didn't think much about it.

Probably because she had a delusion, Shen Xueyao thought so, smiled and continued to walk forward.

At this moment, around the corner, the man who had fled before was hiding behind the wall and panting, his ugly face full of scars seemed to be twitching, and his eyes were full of deep fear.

He couldn't help but say to himself, "Xue Yao, why did she come here?" Could it be that Qi Hao discovered something? ”

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of fear, as well as a strong resentment, and couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his already scarred face.

He is Zhou Pengfei, who seems to have evaporated from the world after fleeing. That day, when the warehouse in the western suburbs was exposed, and the place was surrounded by police cars, he happened to have a full view of the scene not far away.

I couldn't help but secretly wipe my sweat in my heart, fortunately he came back a step late, otherwise he would have the same fate as Qi Feng and Su Yu. Knowing that Qi Hao would not let him go if he didn't find him, Zhou Pengfei once again entered the life of hiding in Tibet like a rat crossing the street. He dodged Qi Hao's eyeliner, filled his stomach with the rest of the money, and lived in fear every day, not even daring to stay in the same place for two more nights.

All the checkpoints were guarded by Qi Hao's people, and he couldn't escape, so he could only be trapped in this city, and he fled in fear all day long.

However, one day, when he slept under the machines of a factory, the factory happened to catch fire that night, and by the time he woke up, he had been trapped by the fire, surrounded by raging fire and billowing black smoke, and he was almost completely gone.

The crowd outside the door gathered more and more, and he didn't even dare to shout for help, as long as he gritted his teeth and rushed out of the window through the flames, a series of flames burned on his body, spreading to his hair and even burning his face.

He rolled on the ground screaming and fainting in pain, and his face was still ruined, which made him almost go crazy in pain.

However, the fire disfigured him like this, but there was a benefit - Qi Hao's eyeliner could no longer recognize him.

Everyone avoided him like a plague, and he fled back to his hometown and hid in this small village, where he has remained until now.

Although Zhou Pengfei had fear in his heart, he stretched out his head to see Shen Xueyao's back slowly leaving, and his heart couldn't help but move, and he finally followed with a little hesitation.

Shen Xueyao held Li Xiyue's photo in her hand and walked all the way inside, not far away was a long bridge, under which was a big lake, and the wind on the bridge was extremely windy, and Shen Xueyao saw that there was a cemetery on the opposite side of the bridge, and there were tombstones standing quietly one after another.

This village is really strange, how could the cemetery be built in this place? Shen Xueyao couldn't help but think of it, but she still walked over slowly and came to the side of the cemetery.

Basically, they are all old graves, and they have been weathered for a long time

The face is covered with hideous cracks. Shen Xueyao walked in with a little curiosity, there was only a path that had been stepped out on the ground, and the surrounding area was overgrown with flowers and weeds, as if she wanted to entangle the footsteps of the visitors.

Not far away is a small bungalow, probably where the grave keeper lives.

Shen Xueyao's footsteps stopped here, and she was about to go out, but her eyes were suddenly attracted by a new tomb, the white body of the monument was incompatible with everything around her, and it was obviously just erected.

The most important thing is that just a glance, Shen Xueyao saw a name that made her even clot her blood - Zhou Pengfei.

Pengfei Zhou...... The grave? Is he dead? Shen Xueyao seemed to be nailed to the spot for a while, and she didn't dare to step forward in a daze, not knowing what she felt in her heart.

Although after capturing Qi Feng and Su Yu, Qi Hao transferred all his manpower to search for Zhou Pengfei's whereabouts, but Zhou Pengfei completely disappeared as if the world had evaporated, and even if he turned the entire city over, he could not find his whereabouts.

In desperation, Qi Hao had no choice but to give up.

Under such circumstances, Shen Xueyao almost decided in her heart that something had happened to Zhou Pengfei. It's just that at the moment of seeing his tombstone, Shen Xueyao still felt a little incredulous in her heart, although she thought so in her heart, but seeing such a scene with her own eyes was not the case at all.

But why is Zhou Pengfei's tombstone located here? And who made it for him? Shen Xueyao couldn't help but walk to the tombstone and take a closer look, the words written on the tombstone were - the tomb of my brother Zhou Pengfei.

This is the tombstone erected by Zhou Pengfei's sister for him, Shen Xueyao's heart is suddenly in his heart.

But how did Zhou Pengfei's sister know that he had an accident and was not in the world? Where is she now? Should I go and meet her?

Also, what will be the relationship between Zhou Pengfei's sister and Li Xiyue? Are there two people with the same name who live in the same village? Or are they just the same person?!

Many thoughts suddenly popped up in Shen Xueyao's heart, circling back and forth in her mind one by one, as if there was a connection that she couldn't discover, and Shen Xueyao's heart couldn't help but get nervous.

At this moment, the door of the small bungalow not far away was suddenly opened, and an old man with gray hair and staggering steps walked out, slowly moving out with a cane.

Shen Xueyao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Old man, was Zhou Pengfei's cemetery set up by his sister Zhou Xiyue?" ”

Looking closely, Shen Xueyao found that the tomb keeper's eyes were cloudy, and Shen Xueyao doubted whether he could see things clearly.

The grave keeper seemed to be a little behind his ears, and Shen Xueyao said it several times with anxiety before he reacted, nodded and said, "Yes, yes." ”

"Where is his sister now? Can you take me to her? Shen Xueyao immediately continued to ask.

"Xiyue is no longer in the village now, she and Pengfei are both hard-working children, their parents have long since passed away, and now Pengfei is ...... The setting moon is long gone. The grave keeper shook his head again and again, looking very embarrassed

Appearance said.

Already out of the village? Where did that go? Shen Xueyao bit her lip, feeling a little lost and anxious in her heart.

She handed out the photo in her hand, sent it to the old man and asked, "Old man, do you know who the person in this photo is?" Is she Zhou Xiyue? ”

The grave keeper waved his hand: "I'm so old, my eyes can't see clearly for a long time, where can I tell the difference?" ”

Looking at the old man's cloudy yellow eyes, Shen Xueyao was extremely disappointed.

But at least, she still has one last clue - Zhou Pengfei's primary school.

Zhou Pengfei once told her that his primary school was in the village, and after junior high school, he was sponsored by the Zhou family there to study in a nearby county seat, and there was only one primary school in this small village.

"Old man, can you tell me which direction the elementary school is going?" Shen Xueyao put away the photo and asked again.

The old man pointed to the other side of the road: "Just a few hundred meters away, the village is so big." ”

Shen Xueyao said goodbye to the old man and rushed all the way to Zhou Pengfei's elementary school.

Sure enough, there is a school not far away, with an electric gate at the door, a small opening, and several three-story teaching buildings side by side, all of which look very old.

At this time, it seemed to be class time, and the sound of reading aloud came, Shen Xueyao groped and went directly to the principal's office.

A middle-aged man was sitting in the office drinking Tieguanyin, the small personal office was full of the smell of tea, when Shen Xueyao came in, he was stunned for a long time, pushed his glasses before he reacted, and asked a little puzzled: "Which child's parent?" Why didn't you say hello in advance? ”

"I'm sorry, I'm not from the village, I'm here to inquire about something." Shen Xueyao had already thought of her words, and immediately showed an apologetic smile at this time and said.

The principal had a good temper, and he didn't get angry because of Shen Xueyao's uninvited incident, and said, "What do you want to inquire about?" ”

"Excuse me, do you know this person?" Shen Xueyao hesitated for a moment, and handed out the photo in her hand again.

However, the headmaster just glanced at it and shook his head and said, "Girl, I am the headmaster hired from outside, and I am not very familiar with the people in the village. ”

"That'...... I would like to ask you about the school thirteen years ago. Bear. File. Is the case still kept? ”

"Thirteen years ago?" The headmaster seemed taken aback, and repeated the sentence, his eyebrows furrowed.

"Yes, I would like to see what this elementary school did thirteen years ago. Bear. File. case, or a photo of the graduating class, I'm looking for someone. Shen Xueyao's tone was a little pleading and anxious.

She finally came here to inquire for a long time, she didn't want to go back like this, she had to find clues about Li Xiyue or Zhou Pengfei, otherwise she was really unwilling.

"Logically speaking, these things can't be shown to outsiders at will." Looking at Shen Xueyao's appearance, the principal couldn't help but frown, yes

Said with some embarrassment.

"Headmaster, you should have been in this village for a while, have you heard of the young master of the Zhou family?" Shen Xueyao asked suddenly.

"Young Master of the Zhou family? You mean Zhou Pengfei? The principal was stunned and reacted immediately.

Shen Xueyao breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that everyone in this village really knows Zhou Pengfei.

"Well, I am from the Zhou family, and now Zhou Pengfei's whereabouts are unknown, and our entire Zhou family is inquiring about him. The purpose of my coming here this time is the same, so please cooperate with the principal. ”

"If you go deeper into the reason, it is the secret of our Zhou family, and it is inconvenient to reveal it to you here. I won't divulge anyone's information, and besides, our Zhou family doesn't have any interest in it. Shen Xueyao's tone suddenly became serious, and what she said seemed to be serious.

The principal's face suddenly fell into a deep groan, he naturally didn't want to wade into the troubled waters of these families, he knew that Zhou Pengfei's identity was complicated, he was an illegitimate child, since the other party was a member of the Zhou family, it was better to sell face, anyway, it was just to see the photos and files.

"Come with me." The principal thought for a while, took out a bunch of keys from the drawer, and said to Shen Xueyao.

Shen Xueyao was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly followed.

The principal took Shen Xueyao out of the office, all the way through the small soot playground to an old building.

The moment the door opened, the dust was so thick that it was choking, and Shen Xueyao hurriedly waved her hand to fan the air in front of her nose.

"This is the school library." The principal said as he opened the electric switch on the side in the dark, and the incandescent lights suddenly lit up in the library, which was a little dazzling.

"This row is full of files and photos of former graduates, but because of the neglect of management, the labels attached to it have been worn, and even the paper is yellow and brittle, I don't know if you can find it, there is only so much I can help you." The principal said helplessly.
