Xinxin and I sat on the bed, and Officer Wang sat on the stool, and she reached out and took a doll on the bed and held it in her arms.

"How old are you?" I stroked her hair.

"Five." She bowed her head a little shyly in reply.

She first looked me up and down, and then looked back at Officer Wang, but there was a slight horror in her eyes. It's also at my age like her, and I'm a little nervous when I see a police uncle in a police uniform.

"Auntie, where's my mother?" Shin Shin hugged the rag doll and looked up at me.

"Uh......" I slurred, not knowing how to answer, thinking of the situation just now when Xinxin's mother was lying on the stretcher, my nose was sore, and tears were rolling in the frame of my eyes.

"Ahem....." Officer Wang cleared his throat and glanced at me, I also understood that if she wanted to accept this question at her age like Xinxin, it would be too reluctant, and besides, she might not be able to understand the meaning of life and death very well.

I came back to my senses and looked at Xinxin's face, those big eyes were longing for my answer, and I really didn't know what to do now in the face of this little girl who was only five years old.

"Your mother has something to do today, and she's out on a long trip." I turned my head to look at Officer Wang, who was smiling kindly, his face did not have the majesty under the big cap, only the simple love and pity for the child.

"Huh? So where did Mom go? She was a little sad, there was a faint worry on her brow, and her eyes were like a clear spring, and looking at her like this, I felt that it was cruel to lie to her, but if I told her the truth, it would be a "miserable" thing.

I touched Xinxin's hair lovingly, "Your mother has been far away, but it is beautiful, and when she sees a lot of beautiful things, she will come back and tell you those beautiful stories." So now you just have to wait quietly for Mommy to come back, and that's it. ”

"Really?" Xinxin's face suddenly glowed, but then it was overshadowed, "But I don't want my mother to go there, I still hope that my mother can come back." After saying that, she grinned and cried.

After all, she is a child, even if her mother went far away to tell her a lie, she still has no way to accept it.

"Officer Wang, I'll go out first." I stood up, "I'll be right back." Officer Wang looked at me a little blankly, and then said, "Okay, you go and get back quickly." "I knew he wouldn't know what to do with this crying little girl if he was left alone in this situation.

I walked downstairs to a small convenience store and bought Shin Shin some chocolates, snacks like lollipops. This is probably the most earthy, but also the most practical way to deal with children, I remember when I was young, I was often encouraged by adults to take this "sugar-coated cannonball" way. And it's tried and tested, so the first thing that comes to my mind is this method.

When I went upstairs again, I stood at the top of the stairs and listened carefully to the sounds in the room, fortunately, the crying was reduced a lot, only a gentle sigh, when I walked into the room, the little girl was sitting on the bed and hugging the rag doll tightly, but Officer Wang sat aside, frowning and smoking.

Some people say that men are at a loss for crying women, this sentence is really a classic, just such a five-year-old girl, Officer Wang, who has punished countless criminals, is already at a loss.

"Come, Xinxin, look what Auntie bought you." I said and sat down next to her, then pulled out what I had just bought at the commissary, "What do you want to eat?" ”

Xinxin glanced listlessly, and the light in her eyes flashed. Wow, it seems that this trick is quite effective, after all, it is a child, and he is born with no willpower for snacks.

"I'm going to eat this." She picked up a piece of chocolate and cautiously asked me, "Is that okay?" Aunt. ”

I smiled, "Of course, these things are all bought for you to eat." I lifted the bag of snacks to her.

"Thank you, Auntie!" She opened the chocolate wrapper and ate it with relish, "It's delicious!" She happily bites on the chocolate and smiles happily.

Officer Wang snuffed out the cigarette butt and smiled at me, his expression seemed to say, "What a way to deal with children!" ”

I gently stroked Shin Shin's back, hi poor kid. Seeing your happy smile, this is something I want to desperately protect, how can I bear to tell you that your mother has been shot and killed by your biological father?

She ate half of the chocolate, wrapped the rest in wrapper, and placed it squarely in the bag. Then he clapped his hands and licked his lips greedily.

"There's still half of it, why don't you eat it?" I asked, puzzled.

She smiled and looked up, "Such a delicious thing, I want to save some for my mother." "Hey, what a good boy. When I heard her say that, I felt like crying again.

"Xiaoya, you and I will come out for a while." Officer Wang waved his hand to me, got up and stood up, and I quickly got up and walked with him to the corridor outside the house.

"Officer Wang, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Officer Wang's embarrassed face, I asked in surprise.

Officer Wang took off his big cap and gently stroked the beads of sweat on his forehead, "This child is so pitiful, and I don't know how Zheng Encai will judge it now, but her mother is also dead, and there is no one to supervise it for the time being." After saying that, he frowned and took a deep breath.

I was also lost in thought, yes, yes, it's the question, "Can I adopt her?" "This child is really pitiful, if I put her on this side, I am really reluctant in my heart.

"You?" Officer Wang stretched his face forward, and then shook his head, "No, no, really not, you don't have stability now, you don't have the conditions for adoption, and besides, you are young and don't have enough energy and experience to take care of a child." ”

I rubbed my hands, Officer Wang's words were not unreasonable, but at this time I was also a little anxious, "So what should I do?" You can't let the little girl fend for herself. ”

"Oh, no, no, no, it definitely won't be like this, at present, according to the policy, it is still necessary to send the little girl to the welfare home. This is the country's policy, and the key is how to tell Shin Shin that she doesn't cry or make trouble when she goes to the welfare home, which is the primary issue. As he spoke, he lit another cigarette and took a deep inhalation.

Belch...... Hearing Officer Wang's words, I also fell silent. Yes, first of all, I don't have any adoption, but now if she is suddenly sent to the environment of a children's welfare home, she probably can't accept it. This poor child had just lost his mother, and he was about to suffer a fateful journey.

What to do? I patted my head irritably, that's the only way to do it, I still need to tell a beautiful lie, no matter what, now I can't stimulate Xinxin's young mind anymore.

Thinking of this, I raised my head and said in a firm tone, "Officer Wang, I'll go talk to Xinxin." ”

Officer Wang also looked at me a little incredulously, a little worried about my communication skills, an old police officer like him with many years of experience felt a bit tricky about the problem, what can I do as a young girl?

"Okay, you go ahead and try it first." With him finished, we went back to the house together.

"Ahri, Ahri, you see there are so many delicious things here, let's leave them for my mother to eat." She picked up the little fox puppet and rubbed its face affectionately.

"Xinxin," I whispered to her, and she turned back to her, "what are you doing?" I crouched down beside her.

"I'm talking to Ahri, Auntie, do you know? My mother sometimes went out to work and had to put myself at home all day, and Ahri was the one who usually accompanied me the most, and she was my best friend. ”

I patted her on the head, "Xinxin, do you miss your mother?" ”

She nodded seriously, "Yes, but my mother went out early this morning and hasn't come back yet." ”

I smiled and nodded, "Does Xinxin feel that Mom is usually hard?" ”

"Hard."

"Oh, then Xin Xinxi doesn't want her mother to be happy?" I held back tears and tried to make my tone sound as normal as possible.

"Well, if my mother says I'm obedient, she'll be happy."

"Then Auntie told you that my mother is now in a very beautiful place, where my mother can see a very beautiful and beautiful scenery, and she will be very happy and happy, will Shin Shin also be happy for her mother?" I laughed to hide the paleness of my lies.

"As long as my mother is happy, I am happy." Xinxin nodded.

I hugged her into my arms, "That's good, Xinxin obediently waits for her mother to come back, okay?" I still couldn't hold back my tears, and they flowed out of my eyes. I was afraid that the little girl would notice it, so I quickly wiped it off, and Officer Wang sighed again and again when he saw this scene.

"But?" Xinxin looked up at me, "When will Mom come back?" ”

"Well......" my brain was spinning, and if I didn't answer a word well, the whole lie would be a goof, "and she'll be back when she's seen the scenery, and she'll tell you that beautiful story, and eat the chocolate you left her." I put my arms around her again.

"Really? That's great. The girl clapped her hands excitedly, but for a moment she was disappointed, "But I still miss my mother." ”

This...... Oh, Mom, it's so hard to tell a lie, I can understand it, "If you tell a lie, you have to use a bunch of lies to fulfill that lie." "It's too uncomfortable.
