Although Li Xiao is the class leader, she actually does not have the right to speak in the class, and I feel this matter myself. Li Xiao plays the role of a lubricant, she knows the golden mean very well, anyway, no one can be offended.

Therefore, compared to saying that Li Xiao became the class president because of her outstanding ability, I think it is more like the safest choice made by the teacher who is unwilling to offend these rich children.

Li Xiao has excellent grades, and he is also easy-going, and he is still from a civilian background, so he is simply a harmless little animal. The most important thing these rich children lack is a sense of self-confidence, and it is estimated that all of them have very strong personalities. Thinking about it this way, Li Xiao seems to be the most reasonable choice to be the squad leader.

"I think there must be some problems between the aristocratic students and the commoners," Lynn said, "and these are the problems that we have to listen to in order to understand them...... Moreover, Wang Dongcheng's position in the class is also very special, and I think the information he provides to us, whether it is direct or indirect, will help us find out the truth. ”

I nodded, feeling that what Lin said was not unreasonable, and said with some emotion: "I said that you are really good at doing this kind of reasoning, where did you learn it?" ”

Lin stared at me, wrinkled her little nose, smiled playfully, and said, "That's how it is played in movies." ”

However, reality is not a movie after all. When Lin and I found Wang Dongcheng's house together, the excitement had disappeared for some time.

Wang Dongcheng's hometown is like a garbage bag that has been stuffed into a garbage heap, tightly embedded in the corners of the alley, the walls are cracked where they should be, and the floors are broken where they should be broken.

After knocking on the door for a long time, it was an old lady in a dirty t-shirt who came to open the door, with silver curly hair on her head, her face full of wrinkles, her sallow skin was thin and almost transparent, and her skin was red.

"Who are you looking for......?" The old lady's eyes were almost open, and I doubted that she would ever be able to see us.

Lin and I told us that we were here to find Wang Dongcheng. The old lady shook her head and said you should go back.

Lin and I hurriedly said that we are actually police, and we have very important matters to investigate, and it will not take up too much time, and I hope Wang Dongcheng can cooperate.

The old lady was silent for a long time, and said, "You may come in, but he is in his own house, and he has not come out for many days, and I don't think he will open the door for you."

Originally, Lin and I thought that we were all here, and we are now police officers, so Wang Dongcheng has to give us a little face. But when Lin and I stood at the door to communicate with Wang Dongcheng and knock on the door, he just didn't react.

However, Wang Dongcheng must indeed be in the house, and when Lin and I put our ears to the door and listen, we could occasionally hear sparse sounds.

At first, Lin found out first, but after listening to it for a while, her face turned a little red, and then she looked at me strangely, whispered to let me listen, and lowered her head to the back.

I was a little puzzled at first, but after quietly putting my ear to the door and listening for a while, I realized that the sound of the "Ya Butterfly" of the island girl occasionally came from inside......

Well...... This kid is quite emotional. I couldn't laugh or cry, so I had to knock on the door again, saying that we were really just here to gather information, without any malicious intent, all to prevent the disappearance from continuing to happen, and I hope he can cooperate.

However, what happened next was a surprise to me - there was a crunch bang, and only a few centimeters from my eyeball, the bedroom door was directly pierced through a hole, and in that small hole, a fruit knife was clearly inserted.

"Shhh...... it......"

A burst of stimulation similar to a strong electric current suddenly spread throughout my body, my scalp was numb, my legs were uncontrollably weak, I left the door tremblingly, and subconsciously touched my ears. Lynn, too, was completely frightened and hurriedly ran up to help me and asked if I was hurt.

I shook my head, but when I looked into the hole, I saw a very horrible scene.

Although the light was dim, and for a brief moment, I seemed to see a boy's face there. The boy seemed to be naked, with no clothes on.

He had hemp rope tied around his body, green tape around his mouth, and a pair of eyes staring at me in despair from the hole.

However, what creeps me out is not the boy, but the man standing behind the boy.

I didn't see what the man was wearing, but after I had been staring at the boy for less than a second, he pulled away, and after a moment of darkness, an eye appeared in the hole, staring at me.

"Get out."

A hoarse voice that seemed to come out of hell.

And when I turned to look at Lynn, I found that the old lady was already standing behind me and Lynn at some point.

"It's time for you to go."

The old lady looked up at us expressionlessly, and in his hand, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, was holding a kitchen knife. She wore a pink apron and water droplets on her hands, as if she had just chopped vegetables.

Lin and I glanced at each other, and this strange atmosphere let us know that there were definitely some secrets hidden in this shabby, Wang Dongcheng's old home. But now is not the right time to explore that secret.

If you can't get it right, let alone explore some secrets, the lives of Lin and I are probably going to be threatened. I didn't say anything more at the moment, Lin silently supported me, I said a little hoarsely to disturb, and then left Wang Dongcheng's hometown.

As Lynn and I left, there was a loud bang from the old lady closing the door. Lynn and I stood in a daze in the deserted alley, looking at the whole house, which was distorted in shape, like garbage forcibly embedded in this distorted space.

“…… Let's go, get out of here first. ”

"yes, okay."

I didn't know what to say more, so I had to leave. I had to leave, or I felt like I couldn't recover my sanity.

When I arrived at the nearby park, I saw passers-by in a hurry, couples strolling leisurely with strollers, and a few college students playing basketball on the basketball court.

"Hangzi, you've sweated a lot, wipe it."

"Ah...... Thank you. ”

Before I could react for a moment, Lynn stared at me, sighed softly, and silently wiped the cold sweat from my sideburns and forehead with a handkerchief.

I looked at Lin silently, and suddenly a sense of unwillingness and sadness surged in my heart, and I said hoarsely: "I...... I just saw a terrible scene. ”

"yes, I know."

Lynn paused and stared at me silently.

“…… Did you see that too? ”

Lin shook her head and said, "Hangzi, I think we need to forget about this for a while. ”

"Why?"

"Do you remember that Mr. Li said that Wang Dongcheng's father died in a mental hospital when Wang Dongcheng was very young because of mental illness in his early years?"

I felt that my breathing was a little difficult, and after a long time, I asked her with difficulty, do you mean, that man is likely to be Wang Dongcheng's father? Lynn says she can't be 100% sure, but I think it's almost impossible to be wrong.

I asked Lynn, why do you think so? Is it just because this assumption is the most terrifying and curious?

The boy must have been Wang Dongcheng, despite the fact that he was naked, though he was as thin as a hemp stick, despite the despair on his face......

But I still saw it at a glance. That helpless and pitiful child must be Wang Dongcheng.

I knew Lynn wasn't wrong, but I didn't know why, and the anger that came out of my stomach just thought about it, and surged up my chest into a suffocation that had nowhere to vent.

I trembled and said, why, just because you have watched too many movies, you think that Wang Dongcheng was stripped naked by his biological father, tied up and locked up in the house, and abused is the most curious and most suitable plot for the movie? Just because of this, do you think his dad is not dead yet?

I don't know if I'm talking about the problem or if I'm venting my anger with Lynn anymore. But Lynn just listened silently, neither angry nor aggrieved.

She just stared at me very calmly. Then, when I had finished, he picked up the handkerchief again and gently wiped the tears from my eyes.

"It's not like that." Lynn said, wiping the tears from my eyes and gently lowering her hand.

"I know a child who grew up with a mentally ill mother. Since the divorce, she has been living with her mother at her grandparents' house.

And the grandfather announced that his daughter had died in a mental hospital, and they had no children and no daughters. But in fact...... Their daughter did not die. The child's grandfather locked his daughter in the house and kept her as a pet, sometimes loving and sometimes abusive.

And their granddaughter was treated the same. When the granddaughter is obedient, let the granddaughter be outside, and when she is disobedient, let the granddaughter be in the house and be with her mother. ”

Lin spoke slowly, and her mood seemed calm, but her voice trembled a little. I didn't know what to say, but my mouth was dry, and a deep sense of guilt poured out of my chest, like groundwater slowly seeping out of the cracked earth.

"I looked at the scene just now...... Subconsciously remembered the story I knew, that's why I told you that. ”

I looked at Lin for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking, "What about that little girl...... The little girl you know, how is it now? ”

Lin didn't speak, but she spoke only when we looked up at the sky together and watched for a long time, almost forgetting that we were in the park.

Lynn said that she was doing well now, very comfortable, very fulfilled, at least she would not remember the old days.

Today is a day of no harvest for Lin and I - what happened to Wang Dongcheng may be a new discovery for us, but whether it is a gain after all, Lin and I don't know.

But just as we were about to catch the bus back, we met an unexpected person.

"Ah, suspension! Is it a suspension! Oops, how long has it been! Haha, hurry, sister hug! ”

Barely before I could react, the beautiful woman who was standing not far away and shouting excitedly at me trotted all the way towards me, threw herself into my arms, and hugged me tightly.

“…… Poof! Wait, wait! Who are you, big sister! ”

Although it was only for a moment, I seemed to see that the moment this unknown beauty threw herself into my arms, Lynn's expression froze. Let's hope it's an illusion......

After the confusion, I finally pulled her away, and I fixed my eyes - I actually recognized this person
