A ray of sunlight shone on my face through the cracks in the blinds.

I slowly opened my eyes, only to find myself in a hospital bed.

However, when I lowered my head again, I found that there was only a catheter on my right wrist, and there was no watch!

"Watches? What about my watch? I screamed.

I looked around, but I couldn't see the watch around. Could it be that this watch has been lost again?

My scream alarmed the nurses who were outside the door. The nurse ran in and looked at me, she wasn't the nurse who got out of the ambulance last night, she seemed to be a few years younger than the nurse, and she had two small dimples on her face.

"Are you awake? What are you looking for? The nurse asked.

"Where's my watch, my watch?" I looked up, "Didn't your nurse pick up my watch last night?" ”

"Watches? I don't know? The little nurse shook her head, "I don't see any watches?" ”

"What?" My heart suddenly cooled for a large part, and at this time, another important question also came up, "What about me, my wife?" Is she still alive? ”

"Your wife?" The nurse shook her head, "I don't know." ”

"Forget it, it's useless to ask you." I shook my head, feeling more anxious.

If Yuting dies and the watch can't be recovered, what can I do?

At this time, a doctor walked in from outside the door, followed by a policeman.

As soon as I saw the policeman, I was stunned and blurted out: "Officer Yan? It's you? ”

That's right, the doctor was followed by a serious police officer.

As soon as he heard this, he frowned, but didn't say anything.

"Officer Yan, just ask any questions you have, but this patient's injuries are not yet healed, and he may not be able to answer too many of your questions." The male doctor turned his head and said.

"I understand." Nodding solemnly, "I'll just ask a few words, please go out of here." ”

So, the doctor and the nurse all left the room, and here it was just me and Serious.

"Do you recognize me?" Serious took a chair, sat down, and looked at me with interest, "But I didn't seem to know you before?" ”

"Oh, you, you used to be a criminal investigator, you're quite famous, you seem to have seen you on TV." I lied.

Of course I've seen you, Officer Yan, but can I tell you that I saw you and talked to you when I crossed over before?

"Really?" smiled seriously, touched his smooth chin, raised his head again, and looked at the white ceiling, "I didn't expect that I was still so famous?" ”

I didn't say anything more, but I was anxious.

As if he saw my anxiety, he looked at me seriously and seriously, "What were you calling just now?" What is the watch? ”

"Me, my watch is missing, I want to take a look at my watch, what time is it?"

"Isn't there a clock on this wall? It's nine o'clock in the morning. Solemnly pointed to the wall clock on the wall.

Actually, I didn't want to know the time, I just wanted to get my watch back.

"You seem to care a lot about your watch, don't you?" Seriously opened his briefcase slowly, "However, most people are most concerned about mobile phones, why don't you care about where your mobile phone fell?" ”

"This." I'm speechless.

"I heard you kept yelling last night for the nurse to get the watch back." Serious took out a plastic bag from his briefcase, and then, pointing to the bag, "Is this the watch?" ”

I looked in, and yes, the plastic bag contained my amazing watch, and my phone.

"It's mine." I got excited, and I was about to reach for it.

Unexpectedly, Serious put the plastic bag back and closed the zipper of the briefcase.

"What are you doing here? Here's my watch! "I'm a little angry.

"But now, it's our police evidence." Seriousness smiled slyly, as if deliberately provoking me, "If you want to take it back, you have to answer me a few questions." ”

"You, you name it." I had to suppress the anger I had just had.

Anyway, the watch was in the hands of the police, not the woman in black.

"Why don't you ask about your wife first?" Serious frowned, "Could it be that this watch is more important than her life and death?" ”

"She, is she dead?" I had a vague premonition, but I wasn't scared because I still had the watch.

He thought about it seriously and nodded.

I didn't speak, which was to be expected.

Perhaps, the moment Yuting took the car keys, I already knew this result in advance, and she still couldn't escape this fate after all.

"Why do you want to drive yourself, don't you have a driver?" Serious, without superfluous nonsense, asked bluntly.

"Because the driver drank too much." I said, "So my wife just took the car keys and drove herself." ”

"That's right." nodded solemnly, "So, why don't you go and ask for a substitute driver?" ”

"I don't know." I shook my head and still feel the pain in my head, "My wife said she wanted to experience what it was like to drive this car for herself, so ······"

"I see." Seriousness interrupted me, "But doesn't she know she's drunk driving?" ”

"Did she drink?" I was stunned.

At this moment, he was stunned for a moment.

"No, her wine is fake, she has done tricks." I said, "It's an unspoken rule that everyone knows, the bride doesn't drink alcohol on her wedding day, it's just coke." ”

"Really?" smiled seriously, and smiled a little maliciously, "I didn't expect this deceptive trick to be put on the wine table." ”

"It's not a lie, it's an unspoken rule." Again, I stress it again.

"I'm a person who hates unspoken rules the most." Serious sighed, "So I went from the criminal police team to the traffic police team." ”

"Understood." I also interrupted him, "I hope that one day, you can go back to being a criminal policeman." ”

"Huh?"

"That way, I can see a good cop who doesn't play unspoken rules." I looked him in the eye earnestly.

The serious hand shook suddenly, and although it was only a slight one, it did not escape my eyes. At this moment, it seems that we are not the relationship between the police and the subject of the investigation, but a pair of tacit friends.

Perhaps, this police officer named Serious has always been so serious. It's just that people who are too serious and serious inevitably don't understand some unspoken rules, so the journey along the way is not very smooth, right?

"Thank you." After a pause for a second or two, he smiled seriously again, but his words changed again, "There is another question, why did your wife turn around on the highway?" ”

"She said she forgot to take her phone with her and was going to the hotel to get it back."

"Is that it?" Serious opened his bag again, took out another phone, and handed it to me.

"Yes, this is Yuting's phone." I nodded and took my phone.

"For the sake of a mobile phone, she is going to risk turning around on a winding road?" Serious sighed, "Is it worth it?" That's two lives. ”

I didn't say anything, which was tantamount to acquiescing that the child in Yuting's womb was mine.

"Officer, please give me back my watch and phone." I looked at Seriousness sincerely, "You should be done with your questions, right?" ”

"And one last question." There was a serious pause, "Do you know what kind of mental illness your wife has?" ”

"What?" My eyes widened and I didn't understand what Seriousness was saying.

"That's right." Looked at me seriously, "Did you know that her father disappeared when she was very young?" ”

"Well, I know, she told me." I really can't figure out what the disappearance of Yuting's father has to do with the serious question to ask, why did he pull the timeline back so far into the past?

"Before, when I was in the criminal police team, there was a woman, that is, your wife's mother, oh, it was your mother-in-law, what was her name? Oh, Zhang Yuqin, yes, that's the name. Seriously, "She has been to our criminal police team, and she has been here constantly. ”

"Really?" I didn't think there was anything going on, "What did she come to you for?" ”

"This mother-in-law of yours has always suspected that her husband was murdered, and said that the body must be hidden somewhere." Holding his chin seriously, "At that time, I was just a young policeman who had just arrived, and I was in charge of making records. However, this woman's expression, I will never forget for the rest of my life, it is too exaggerated. ”

I frowned, to be honest, although I am someone's son-in-law, I don't have much intersection with this mother-in-law. Yuting has rarely taken her mother out, saying that she has a bit of a nervous breakdown and is easily excited. However, at the time of the wedding, I didn't find anything strange about this old lady.

"Every once in a while, she would come to us to press for her husband's disappearance." said seriously, "However, we still can't find any clues about her husband's murder." ”

"I understand, her mood is understandable, her husband disappeared suddenly, and anyone else will be cranky."

"Perhaps, but." Serious and stopped, "I later learned that your mother-in-law, who is also this Ms. Zhang Yuqin, once lived in a mental hospital for a period of time, and the hospital diagnosed mild schizophrenia. ”

"What?" I was stunned.

"And, worst of all, it's likely that it's genetic." Seriousness continued, "Because, your mother-in-law's mother, that is, your wife's grandmother, she jumped from a tall building and died because of schizophrenia. ”

"Huh?" I was stunned.

"And your wife, when she was in elementary school, used to stand on the balcony of the school building. Fortunately, that time, she was discovered by her classmates and teachers, and she was saved. You know what I mean, right? ”

I froze, but soon I thought of something else.

Shi Wen once told me that Yuting once swallowed sleeping pills because she couldn't think about it. Unexpectedly, she had suicidal tendencies when she was in elementary school?

"You've been together for so long, have you seen her behave anything unusual?" Seriousness seems to be out of the professional habit of being a criminal policeman, and continues to ask.

I hesitated for a moment, shook my head, and squeezed out two words: "No." ”

I lied, but I didn't want to say anything more.

Last night, Yuting's performance was indeed abnormal. However, she is already dead, even if she has inherited the schizophrenia of her grandmother and mother, but she is dead after all, so why bother to dig deeper?

"Oh." Nodding solemnly, he didn't say anything more.

"Officer, you're done with your words, right?" I said, "Can you give me back my watch and phone?" ”

"Okay then." Seriously gave me back the phone and watch.

I put the watch on my wrist first, and at that moment, I felt a chill on my wrist, but my heart warmed.

"Then I'll go first, if you think of anything, you can contact me at any time, here's my phone number." Seriously copied a note and handed it to me.

"Okay." I took the note and looked at him again.

Serious is gone, and I am the only one left in the ward.

It took me a while before I came to my senses.

This is my third time crossing, and each time, I know more things, about Yuting. I didn't expect that I still know so little about her? Do I really love her?

I'd love to go back in time, but obviously, it's not the best time. I'm still in the hospital, and I haven't finished taking care of Yuting's funeral, if the world suddenly evaporates at this time, will it also attract people's attention like Yuting's father?

However, this concern of mine seems to be unfounded. Because, once I leave the present plane and enter the past, I can never return to this plane, and in that plane, it doesn't seem to be a question whether I continue to exist or disappear.

At this time, my eyes suddenly fell on Yuting's relic, her mobile phone······
