Before dinner on the first day of the Lavender House killings, in the Westinghouse parlor

"You gave someone else the room you assigned to me, so what am I going to do?" In a place where no one could see, Yong Poppy questioned the man of the lavender villa, and the man opposite him still maintained an innocent face, as if he was very kind.

Fu Zhi said to the middle-aged man apologetically: "But there is no way, there is only that room that can be seen, or you can live in my room, I will say that I want to live in the East House, and give you my own room, how about it?" ”

"Really? So what if that lovely girlfriend of yours comes to you? I don't want to quarrel with her! Yong Poppy was still not at ease, but the man promised to give him his room, which can be regarded as giving enough sincerity, after all, the room where the man lived was the best in the house, and the furniture was readily available.

Fu scolded and comforted him and said, "It's okay, you can rest assured, Xiangxiang can't come to me tonight." ”

"Are you so sure?"

"I'm sure, Xiangxiang and I quarreled a few times during the day, and now we're angry!" Fu Zhi said.

Yong Poppy breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, that's all for now." ”

Looking at the back of the middle-aged man leaving, Fu Zhi sighed secretly, and let out his room, it was a last resort, he knew that Yong Poppy was a difficult person, anyway, it would only take three days, and it didn't matter.

After sighing in his heart, Fu Zhi continued to clean up the guest room that had not yet been cleaned up, the maid had already left work, and all the work had to fall on his head, in order to be able to rest early, he still had to hurry up and do it now.

The diligent life did not bring much benefit to the responsible, but made his troubles pile after pile, especially An Lingxiang, who had a strange temper, and now she was like a burden carried by Fu Zhi, who could not give it up, and there was no way to give more love. Fu is just submissive.

Thinking about it, the man walked upstairs to the Westinghouse, he looked through the open door, and the rest of the people were still playing cards in the lavender field, and no one looked in the direction of him, and the person in charge of leaving did not go directly to the place where he was playing cards, and he didn't know what direction he went, and he was completely out of sight.

'When did this obese man's footsteps become so fast?' Fu Zhi thought to himself in his heart. He quickly forgot about the problem and concentrated on his own work. I hope that more customers will come to order lavender bouquets every day, and I will find a way to make lavender into sachets and sell them out as soon as possible." ’

This is a little expectation of the lavender in front of the villa, he may hope to sell the lavender flowers that are growing vigorously as soon as possible in order to make more money.

The small episode passed quickly, and those people seemed to be happy, Fu Zhi's inadvertent glance not only saw a familiar person, you put one of the tall and straight strange backs into the line of sight, he didn't care, just like a question about Yong Poppy, Fu Zhi quickly put it behind.

Returning to the corridor on the second floor again, Fu Zhi gently pushed his door with his hand, the door was still locked, Xiangxiang should not have come to him after the second quarrel, after standing in place and thinking for a while, Fu Zhi did not choose to enter the room, but walked towards the warehouse at the bottom of the corridor.

What's in the warehouse in the last room on the right-hand side? No one in this family knows better than him now, and there will be none in the future, because Fu Zhi is destined to spend his life in this lavender villa, at least he himself thinks so, and he is sure of it.

The rag in his hand was still dripping, and Fu Zhi used his other hand to fumble for the key in his pants pocket, but after touching for a long time, he didn't take out the single small key. In order to distinguish the key of the warehouse door from the key on the other doors, Fu Zhi specially removed it from the key ring and put it in another pocket alone, but now the small key was missing, and he did not know when it was missing, so he showed a very puzzled look.

A minute or two later, the male owner of the lavender villa had rummaged through all the pockets on his body, and still didn't find what he was looking for, there was no way, he could only go to another room first, and took out the key ring that was tangled together, Fu Zhi complained softly, and opened the room where Canglu Lu lived, when his figure disappeared inside, there was a little touch and friction sound on the inside of the warehouse door, as if there was a person who was listening in the room today, I am cautiously leaving the place where I stood.

The morning after the Lavender House killings, inside a tea restaurant in the city

Luo Yifan is meeting with an old friend, this old friend was released from prison not long ago, he still looks very haggard, but his mental condition is good, over the years, this person's home has not been able to survive until now if it is not for the help of a few friends, so he is very grateful to his friends, including Luo Yifan and his wife, and today he also specially invited Luo Yifan to come out to express his gratitude.

"Xiao Luo, is Xiao Yun okay?" The man in his 40s looked older than before, and he didn't have the pride that was unique to upper-class people before, he picked up the teacup, took a sip of green tea, and asked Luo Yifan.

Luo Yifan leaned back in the chair, always with a smile on his face, he said: "It's okay, it's just that taking care of the child is a little busy, in recent years, several major surgeries on the heart of swimmer have gone very smoothly, and my sister is also very happy." ”

"In the days when I was away, Yongxin was able to be safe thanks to the care of Xiaoyun and Sister Yuan, this kindness and I will remember for a lifetime, Sister Yuan's career has been getting better and better recently, Yongxin said yesterday that he must let me take him to Paris to see a fashion show."

"yes, when the four of us go together, I just happened to take my sister out for a while." Luo Yifan replied.

His words were exchanged for the ridicule of the man opposite: "I heard that since you have twin sons, your performance work has been busier, can you still have time to spend with your wife?" ”

"Look at what you said, if you don't have time, your wife still has to accompany me, I'm not the kind of man who doesn't pay attention to it." Although Luo Yifan was defending himself, his face was calm and light.

Putting aside his work, the middle-aged man sitting across from him suddenly mentioned a strange thing, he said to Luo Yifan: "I recently heard from my lawyer that there is a strange dispute in a factory in the suburbs, and this matter seems to be related to the cemetery, and it is not even reported in the newspapers. ”

"Is it a big deal?" Luo Yifan raised his upper body slightly and asked, his eyes inquiring.

The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that there is a joint venture that secretly built a few factories near a remote cemetery behind a certain mountain, and no one paid attention to this kind of thing at first, because the expansion of the factory itself is not news worth paying attention to, and the joint venture seems to have a very strict control over the news of the new factory, and the society hardly knows about it until a worker sues." ”

"Why build a factory near a cemetery?" Luo Yifan asked.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly, my lawyer also learned about this matter by accident, his colleague took over the case, suing the company's workers before entering the factory to work, the health was good, after working for more than a year, they were found to have rectal cancer, so he thinks this is the result of the radiation caused by the company's production of substandard products, and hopes to get a large amount of compensation."

"But the company leader completely denied his claim, and asked him to talk to the original factory manager, who had searched all over the suburbs and didn't even know where the factory was!"

This time, Luo Yifan's interest was really lifted, and he asked: "I have worked in the factory for more than a year, and I don't even know where the factory is, is there really such a thing?" Even if you take a factory car, you can't not know where the factory is for more than a year, right? ”

"This is the strangest part, according to the worker, for more than a year, they have been arranged to only work the night shift, and the pick-up and drop-off factory car is completely closed, every time after dinner, as long as they go to a fixed place to wait for the factory car, they didn't even know that their place of work is near the cemetery, and later in the telephone communication with the lawyer, a person in charge of the enterprise accidentally said that he missed his mouth to know."

But then called, the person in charge changed his words, his reason was that his grandmother was critically ill at the time, so he inadvertently mentioned the cemetery, anyway, there is no conclusion on this matter, the company's statement is that the new factory is built near the old factory, and they also took out the drawings, as well as the planned completion of the factory as evidence, and the workers' statement is that the so-called new factory pointed out by the company now has actually been built earlier, so it cannot be regarded as a new factory at all. The place where they work is definitely not here. ”

"In this way, there is no substantive evidence, and there is no real hammer for the investigation of the enterprise, so it becomes difficult to file a case, and the lawyer also thinks of a lot of ways for the worker who has cancer, but there is no way to find the new factory he said to understand the situation, and there is no real benefit at all."

"Oh, the cemetery behind the mountain in the suburbs......" Luo Yifan said thoughtfully: "I do know some of the situation, there are indeed some cemeteries there that can no longer be developed for many years, because they are all near the forest, and the state decided to keep part of the original development area in order to protect the forest resources, and the rest will stop operating." If the factory were to be built there, it would not have been completely unnoticed, but at least it would have been visible to those who went to the grave every year. ”
