Gao Cheng said something unfathomable: "The communication between people lies in whether they touch that point." ”

I understood it as: "What did the boy say about you?" He stretched out his hand and flicked a finger on my forehead, which hurt very much, and listened to him: "Do you think a little girl can read my mind?" Once effortlessly laissez-faire, why not listen to the story? ”

The question that had puzzled me for a long time became an effortless indulgence in his mouth. After thinking about it, I felt that it was, with the Tao of Gaocheng, how could the child be able to understand it. So it should be the other way around? In fact, in the process, Gao Cheng touched the soft point in the child's heart, and let her take off her guard at the first meeting.

I know that Gao Cheng has that ability. I still remember the first day I met him: a misunderstanding, a bowl of noodles, he sat in a wheelchair, and explained all the details of my existence with a dull expression. So, when he walked into the gallery, the child became the object of analysis right under his nose, and it was easy to poke at her weakness.

It's just that the Tong Ziqi case has not happened at the moment, what reason does he have to analyze the psychology of children?

Thinking, I heard him muttering in his ear: "It seems that it is not only a problem of missing nerves. I frowned slightly, and I repeated the old words? But I saw him suddenly squint at me: "I've known each other for two years, and I never walked into each other's hearts; Friends who don't get too close around; The neighbor is in a state of apathy in a partially recognized relationship; I can't feel the favor of other people's explicit and implied feelings. Little bamboo, don't you ever think there is a problem with these listed? ”

I wondered, "What's the problem?" Although I have known Xiaotong for two years, we belong to the master-employment relationship, and it is about her**, if she doesn't say it, I naturally won't ask more; I work at two o'clock every day, apartment and gallery, and the people I contact are customers at most, and I usually don't have much intersection after an illustration list cycle; As for the relationship between neighbors, most of the urban apartments are like this now, it is the wind of society that is changing the crowd; I won't say more about the last one. ”

Gao Cheng asked with interest, "Why don't you say more?" Let's talk about it. ”

Resisting the urge to roll my eyes, I glanced at him, "Where is there anyone who explicitly or implicitly likes me for such things?" ”

In exchange for Gao Cheng's undisguised sneer, he turned to gloat and said: "Sad, it is also his bad luck to meet you, the heartless master. I paused, not stupid, knowing who he was referring to, "You said Xu Jianglun?" He was more concerned about me, but that's all, and never hinted at the favorability you mentioned, let alone explained. ”

Gao Cheng smiled like a fox, and said: "I originally set my heart to Mingyue, but Mingyue ...... It's a terrible scenery! ”

"......" is talking about children, how did the topic come to this? I went back to the original question: "Do you think the child or her mother may have bone cancer?" Do you want them to have a full body check-up too? ”

Gao Cheng said: "No need to check. ”

"Why?" I asked suspiciously. He replied affirmatively, "They are not." Xiao Zhuzi," he whispered, narrowing his eyes slightly: "Do you know what Xiao Tong said about her father?" ”

————

Gao Cheng drove on the road without telling me where I was going. When I left the police station, I offered to talk to the inside, but he dragged me out of the door and drove away. In the end, I still sent a text message to Xu Jianglun, saying that I would come back later when I went out to do something. Xu Jianglun immediately replied to the text message and asked if he wanted to help? I silently closed the text message and didn't reply, because even I didn't know what it was.

The car drove out of the city, but the direction was not the suburbs of the southern district of Shen Jiang's two families, but the northern district in the opposite direction. After another half an hour, I finally understood where he was going.

Phoenix Hill Cemetery.

What surprised me even more was that when I arrived at the foot of the mountain, I saw two familiar figures, and I turned my eyes and asked the people next to me, "You called them?" ”

Gao Cheng glanced at me lightly: "Or do you think they came here to travel?" ”

I looked at the black and oppressive mountain and determined that he was telling a bad joke, and no one would come to this Phoenix Mountain, which is full of graves. When the car stopped, his eyes turned to me, followed by a cheerful greeting to me: "Hi, little bamboo!" "I felt slightly embarrassed, the person who came was none other than my landlord's son Gao Han, that is, Luo Jinghan. And the other person is naturally a Quxin painting.

But the breath on his side was suddenly cold, and when I pushed the door and got out of the car, the first thing I heard Gao Cheng say was: "Don't call her Xiaozhu in the future." Luo Jinghan was stunned, "What is that called?" Gao Cheng snorted lightly: "There is a name and a surname, Xia Zhu." ”

"Brother Cheng, you don't want to take away my little bamboo, do you?"

There is a black line on my forehead, what is this, and they are discussing what they call me in front of me, so they don't ask me what my opinion is?

"Luo, can you stop talking so much nonsense?" Qu Xinhua came over and interrupted, his face was cold, "Hurry up and report to Brother Cheng and start working." "I raise an eyebrow and work? Looking up again, what can you do here?

Luo Jinghan said unhurriedly: "What's the hurry? Excited to smell the corpse in the dirt? ”

"What's wrong? No, you should see women as excited as you do? Qu Xin painted a contrarian lip ridicule. Luo Jinghan shook his head with a smile: "Wrong, at least I don't have any excitement when I see you." Qu Xinhua was about to speak again, but was reprimanded by Gao Cheng: "Okay, let's talk about what I want you to investigate." ”

Miraculously, the two people who were arguing suddenly looked nervous, and Luo Jinghan spoke: "Tong Haogen, died in Zhongmen Hospital in early September two years ago, diagnosed with cerebral congestion, and buried in Phoenix Mountain Cemetery. This is preliminary information, and the in-depth information will be transmitted by the afternoon. ”

"Is there a specific location?" Gao Cheng asked.

"Checked, go up now? Then follow me and the tune. ”

After Luo Jinghan took a large mountain bag from the back box of the black car on the side of the road and carried it on his shoulder, he took the lead, and Qu Xinhua carried a metal medical kit, and the two walked side by side. Sneaking a glance at Gao Cheng, he happened to be caught by him, and as soon as his eyes touched him, he asked, "What are you looking at?" I quickly shook my head, "It's nothing." Gao Cheng did not say whether he was right or not, and walked upward.

There are two cemeteries in H City, which are in the north and south districts, and the Phoenix Mountain Cemetery in the north district is old, unmanaged, mostly early graves, few new graves to here, and even many people have led the old graves to the southern district. So the mountain road is not overgrown with weeds, but it also looks desolate, and the tombstones standing here and there are not neatly arranged.

At the police station, Gao Cheng told me that Xiao Tong had told him that her father had died of illness two years earlier.

At that time, my heart jumped, "What disease?" ”

Gao Cheng: "She didn't say it. But the expression on her face when she told the story was more longing than sadness. Usually there are two kinds of annotations for this behavior: the nature of open-mindedness to look down on life and death, or ......"

He didn't say anything in the second half of the sentence, and my eyes widened in the blink of an eye, and my heart beat wildly uncontrollably: "You mean...... Are you saying that the cause of all this lies with the Father? ”

After that, he took me to drive to this Phoenix Mountain, and when he saw Luo Jinghan and Qu Xin's paintings and listened to their words, he was even more sure of one thing: Gao Cheng had already had some thoughts.

When it can be described as a peak and a loop.

If it hadn't been for Gao Cheng's proposal, I might not have thought of it even if I broke my head.

Regarding Xiaotong, I only have to think back to the past two years, she has always been a healthy and upward sunny girl in my eyes. If you have been or have been invaded by cancer cells somewhere in your body, it is impossible not to have a clue. In fact, in the past two years, she has rarely taken special leave except for holidays, and her love for painting is in her bones. Although there is no way to verify the child's mother, Gao Chengding began to examine her when she first appeared, and then there must be his basis for the conclusion.

So at this point, Xiao Tong's mention of her father became the key: he died of illness. When everyone has no history of bone cancer, this "disease" becomes the key. It is not uncommon for a person to look down on life and death, but it will never appear in a young girl in her early twenties, and the behavior of the child has already revealed some potential information.

Tong Ziqi has a good relationship with her family, but she lives alone and rarely returns home once, and she has no fixed boyfriend, and Shen Yanping or Jiang Hongxiu may be lovers. Since the root cause is the disease, we must start from the source of the "disease".

The "or" hidden in Gao Cheng's mouth, I already knew what he was suspicious.

It's just that it's quite difficult to find a tombstone and a cemetery in the middle. Luo Jinghan and Qu Xinhua bent in front of them for a long time, and the expression on their faces changed from calm to dazed, and finally Qu Xinhua couldn't stand it: "Do you know the road?" Luo Jinghan replied angrily: "You didn't listen with me, so you were embarrassed to complain about me." It is said that it is near the foot of a large pine tree on the side of the mountain road on this mountainside, but the trees here seem to be relatively large. ”

This message...... I really don't know how to give it, and when I look at it, there is a pine tree almost every four or five meters, and then there are pine branches that are about four or five meters high, which belongs to a big tree. As for the side of the mountain road halfway up the mountain, the area is too large.

After walking for about half an hour and still to no avail, Luo Jinghan couldn't help but turn around and ask: "Brother Cheng, can't the news be wrong or the Tong family moved the grave away, right?" Gao Cheng calmly replied: "No." In this way, Luo Jinghan no longer had any complaints, and continued to go up again.

I can see that even if Gao Cheng is not solemn, he has authority over the first two people, especially when doing things seriously.

Suddenly, Qu Xinhua shouted: "That." Everyone's eyes followed the direction of her finger, and Luo Jinghan first complained: "What is that?" A tombstone, which one are you referring to? ”<
