Chapter 097: Night Detective
"There are so many dogs in our family, do you know that so many dogs don't bark? How could Aunt Zhang be killed by someone stabbing her in the back of the heart? Then she'll have time to arrange for your mom ......."
He waved his hand at me.
"Don't tell me about that yet."
He looked tired.
"Aunt Zhang did take me when I was a child, and always took me to play."
His eyes were red.
"I'll talk about it when I get back."
He looked at me deeply.
"But I'm a little worried about you being here."
I lowered my head, my heart warmed, and I raised my head again.
"I'm fine."
I reached out and straightened his clothes and straightened his hair.
"You have to be careful and stay safe on the road. Give me a call or send me a WeChat message when I get home. β
"Okay."
"Your dad's ......"
He lifted me by the shoulders.
"Don't worry, I talked to the other end on the phone, and I have already called someone to arrange it, and hired another female nurse. This nurse used to work in a mental health center and has a lot of experience. You can rest assured. β
I nodded. He helped the pale, confused-looking old lady into the car, helped her buckle up, and poked her head out of the window.
"I'm leaving."
I raised my hand and waved it twice.
"Call me if there's something."
He shouted.
I nodded and said I understood.
"Don't be impulsive, I'll talk about it when I get back."
"Okay."
The car roared, and Zhang Ruolei's car disappeared.
I'm here alone, waiting for dark. When it is dark, darkness can cover everything, and all sins grow in the darkness. Darkness is a breeding ground for sin.
Who did Aunt Zhang offend?
There is nothing to rent in this town, there is a small scooter, the locals call it bouncing, I called one, and said the location. When the man heard this, he was immediately frightened, and I added some money, saying that my aunt died there.
He said that was your aunt? What a tragic death.
I said yes.
I paid for the place and he drove the car away alone.
I don't know why I'm not afraid, it's not even three days today, and it is said that the ghost will not return home in seven days. If Aunt Zhang had a spirit in heaven, she wouldn't let me have an accident. This is a murderous house, I don't know if the murderer will want to return here, it is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place.
I opened the door, and there was a "creak" of the door, it didn't matter if the door was locked or not, and anyone who knew about this history would not come easily. Inside, the gate was surrounded by a blue and white warning strip, and I lowered my head and slipped into it from underneath.
"Aunt Zhang, if you have a spirit in the sky, you must help me solve the case and let me help you find the real murderer."
"Hey."
As soon as I turned around, I saw a police officer and a police car appear in front of me. I looked at them suspiciously.
"It's on guard here, and you'll ruin the scene if you go in."
I shortened and came out of it again.
"Hello!"
"Hello."
"I'd like to go in and get some personal belongings."
One of them laughed.
"I'm afraid not."
The other took out a cigarette, handed it to his companion, then took out another for himself, lit it, and took a puff.
"Let's go back to town."
He said.
"It's not for you to solve this kind of thing. Besides, Murderous House, aren't you afraid? β
I looked back, I was here a few days ago, Aunt Zhang greeted me at the door, the inside was brightly lit, she prepared a table full of good food and good food, and we had a full meal. I saw her in the rearview mirror before leaving, and we had both gone so far, but she was still standing in the wind, waving in the direction we left.
"I'm just ......"
"We understand."
The other spat out the last puff of his cigarette, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and snuffed it out with the sole of his shoe.
"Let's go! Come back with us. What if you do something here? I'm afraid it's worse. β
I looked back again, but I had no choice but to turn around and follow them into the police car.
"How did you come here? Out of the scene? β
"The scene had already happened on the day of the accident, besides, we are not in one class, we are in one shift for four days, and now this matter has been handed over to the criminal police brigade."
"You also have a criminal police brigade here?!"
The two of them probably didn't know how to answer my embarrassing question, so they didn't say anything. The car is driving gently on the road.
"Then how did you come here to find me, and did you spy on me?"
One of them laughed.
"How so? You are not a suspect either. β
"Then how did you ......?"
I say.
"I just arrived."
"You...... That ......"
The man seemed to be careful with his words.
"Huh?"
"The man who came with you today is ......"
"Oh, we're planning a wedding."
The other party was relieved and seemed to have finally found a suitable adjective.
"Your fiancΓ©, Mr. Zhang, told the people at the inn in that town to take care of you when he left. If you make any changes, report them to him immediately. So you move on the front foot, and he calls Mr. Zhang on the back foot, and Mr. Zhang calls us. β
It dawned on me that I had mixed feelings in my heart. Does he care about me? Maybe, or is it a desire to control? Still is...... Is he afraid I know more?
I think I'm starting to think about it again, I don't know when I started to learn that I don't trust anyone around me, please see, it's any, ever, that even my son --- Huaiping.
The police car came to an abrupt halt in front of the shop, and I thanked me and got out of the car. Seeing that the shopkeeper was picking up something at the counter, when he saw me coming in, he lowered his head first and didn't dare to look at me.
I know that Zhang Ruolei must have given him money, otherwise there are not so many enthusiastic people in this world.
There are people in this world who are cold bystanders, Yan Geling said in her work "Lu Guilty Yan Zhi" that watching the suffering of others can make those people turn their own suffering
Move on to that person as a way to ease your own perception of suffering.
It's like someone always advises people to go to the hospital or crematorium when you feel that you are not doing well, and you will know that you are actually happy.
People who are not sick, healthy, and alive should learn to be content and grateful than most people, but it is not a kind of sadness to let the suffering of others set off their own happiness, or only if others are not as good as themselves, can they make themselves feel happy.
When I went upstairs, I looked back at him, he was not young, his gray hair, his back was not down, but his shoulders and neck were still protruding. If he hadn't been born tall, he would have been a bit like Quasimodo in "The Bell Ringer".
When he saw me looking at him, he lowered his head again, as if he had committed a great sin. The people in the town are still simple, they don't know that people outside can already kill people and steal goods for money, and they can deceive the world and steal their reputation. I would never let myself feel ashamed because I had taken a little money, made a fuss, reported a letter, or was just a reminder out of kindness.
The old wooden staircase creaked and went upstairs, flanked by two neat rows of rooms, with few guests, and my room was the second room on the right hand side of the hallway. Zhang Ruolei said that the first room is noisy, the second room is better, and the last room in the hotel is often associated with weirdness and mystery.
At such times, Zhang Ruolei was a supporter of an indisputable mysterious power.
When I opened the door, I was greeted by a large bed, covered with very rustic light blue sheets and quilts, and the bathroom on the right hand side of the door. I don't need any room card here, so I turned on all the lights in my room. I didn't have the leisure to appreciate it during the day, and I didn't want to have a floor-to-ceiling window in a small hotel or room of such a size in such a place, and the thin square lattice divided the window into several parts, and the curtains on both sides were also very amazing. Velvet with gold trim in royal blue.
It's very interesting, I don't want the owner to have ----- how to say it? Such an aesthetic or feeling.
The town was silent, and at eight or nine o'clock it was completely silent, and it was said that winter was earlier than that, and as soon as it got dark, there was hardly anyone to be seen in the streets. Summer was better, but not much better. You can go out, but you'll be targeted by a bunch of nasty mosquitoes, and those swarm of flies won't give up without paying a fee, or at the very least, will ruin your mood for a summer night.
After looking out of the window for a while, I closed the curtains. I didn't take a bath, I slept in clothes, this bedding was clean and dry, not damp, and there was no smell, if it wasn't a vain person, this small shop should really give a five-star review.
Even so, I still tossed and turned, and I sometimes felt that I should have gotten used to death, especially this sudden and unexpected death. For example, Xiao Ye, such as Su Bai, such as Aunt Zhang, they are all inextricably linked to my life, you don't think about it when you are there, or even ignore it, Xiao Ye, Su Bai, I even felt disgusted at the time. But once they completely disappeared from my life, I began to mourn and miss them again.
Those memories
Lidu comes with beauty and filters.
Since then, I have known. There is no such thing as a perfect person, only a perfect perspective.
Since then, I have finally begun to understand. Love or hate doesn't have to be too much of a dwelling, time will take it all away. And without leaving a trace.
Like, they never existed.
Zhang Ruolei arrived home early, sent me WeChat and I didn't reply, and then called me, and didn't say a few words, I asked him about the situation over there, there are people over there, money and money, everything doesn't seem to be a problem.
Of course, he didn't forget to criticize me. Saying that I shouldn't just go my own way, if those people go and return, the consequences will be unimaginable.
I don't know how to respond to his concerns. The silence was taken for granted by him. So he happily forgave me very generously on the other end of the phone.
At the same time, he didn't forget to show off his means a little, telling me not to think that he can do whatever he wants without being by my side, he can do everything.
I chuckled and said pull it down, it's not you who let you get to the sky, it's your purse.
When I hung up, he said to me, "I love you. β
"Me too."
Perfect closing arguments.
Aunt Zhang's matter has also been determined, and she doesn't know when she can deal with her afterlife. Her hometown is in the countryside of northern Shaanxi, Zhang Ruolei also went once, and the Chinese all talk about entering the soil for peace, and also talking about returning to the roots.
