Chapter 5: Last Winter's Past

Secretary Wu's face changed, and then he smiled: "Sure enough, it is worthy of its reputation, and I know such a secret thing." ”

Ye Liang also smiled coquettishly: "Don't praise me, I know that I am very capable." ”

Zhao Nan and Chu Qi were not surprised by Ye Quan's cheekiness, and Secretary Wu was still gradually getting used to it, and snorted in his nose: "I'll sort out all the case files first, and then I'll look for you." ”

"Then you have to sort it out quickly, maybe one day I'm in a bad mood, and I don't want to cooperate with you if I don't like you." Ye Liang saw that Secretary Wu was about to get angry again, and deliberately angered him, "A disciple of a Wudang layman, he has never investigated a case, but he is just chanting scriptures to make a dojo, but unfortunately the police station doesn't need you to open the light, and no one invites you to blow the conch, if you want to stay at home in the police station and live up to your uncle's expectations, who else can you cooperate with except when I am not cold?" Not afraid of being robbed of credit? Only those of us who intervene in black and white, and do not show their faces, are the most suitable, you think about it. ”

Secretary Wu's face was very bad, he glanced at Ye Quan, snorted and left.

"You're too him." After Secretary Wu left, Zhao Nan sighed.

"This person must be forced to cooperate honestly, Director An is bent on promoting him as his successor, but he is a person who has no experience in this mess, I bet he can only cooperate with us."

Ye Liang looked confident.

Chu Qi clapped his hands and said, "I finally understand why Miss Ye is the boss and Uncle Zhaonan is a buddy." “

Zhao Nanqi said: "You know again? Of course, only unscrupulous and stingy can be bosses, and honest and loyal can only be buddies, since ancient times. ”

Chu Qi smiled and said: "It's Miss Ye who has the aura of a boss and can squeeze what she uses to the extreme, uncle, she is always soft-hearted." ”

Ye Quan nodded: "You little ghost, this is still true, um, are you sure he is soft-hearted?" Ye Quan smiled, "Okay, hurry up and do your homework, I want to study this next agreement with your Uncle Zhaonan." Chu Qi reluctantly went back to his room to do his homework, and Ye Liang lined up the materials that Mrs. Mo handed over to him on the table.

Mrs. Mok's granddaughter disappeared one afternoon last winter.

After Mrs. Mo's son died, her daughter-in-law left her daughter and remarried, but fortunately, the family still had some small property, and all her hopes for the rest of her life were on this granddaughter. It was a bit cold that winter, it snowed for the first few days, and the little girl was stuck at home, and every day she followed her grandmother to roast oranges on the brazier to eat, and the house was full of hot fragrance, and finally the sky was clear, and the little girl begged her grandmother to go out with the neighborhood children by herself.

"I'll be obedient, I won't be able to get my clothes dirty." The little girl put her arms around Mrs. Mo's neck, her voice was soft and glutinous, extremely well-behaved and cute.

Mrs. Mo has been thinking about her granddaughter at home for a few days, and it is good to go out to play with her friends, and it is at the door of the house, what can happen? agreed, took out a red scarf for his granddaughter, and said a few words to watch his granddaughter jump out with his own eyes.

When she saw that it was sunny, she took out all her clothes and sat down on the patio to wash them.

The water is a little cold, so after washing for a while, I move my hands and get some heat.

Outside the yard, I could hear the laughter of children, and my granddaughter laughed very loudly, and when I heard her granddaughter's voice, Mrs. Mo felt that her heart was warm, and the chill in her hands was nothing.

She rubbed her clothes on the washboard for a while, straightened her waist, reached out and clenched her fist and hammered it on her back a few times, when she suddenly felt as if something was missing from the laughter of children outside.

She tore off her apron, didn't bother to wipe her hands, and strode out.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, we are all wooden people, and we are not allowed to speak or move."

The child's voice echoed in the alley.

"Where's my family, where is my family?" Mrs. Mo asked.

The children were playing a game of wooden figures, and they were all stunned when they saw Mrs. Mo suddenly rush out.

"Grandma of the Mo family, isn't Nan Nan going home?" The older child asked.

"No, you haven't been playing here, how can you come back?"

Mrs. Mo looked around anxiously, the snowflakes had melted, and there was still a little residual snow under the brick wall at the edge of the alley, and the air was clear and smelled of moisture after the snow melted on the black ground.

But her granddaughter wasn't in the alley.

"We just played hide and seek, and then we didn't see Nannan, and we all thought she was afraid of the cold and went home."

The older kids pointed to their friends, "Right?" Several children nodded their heads one after another: "Yes, we played hide and seek." "It was Nan Nan who found me, and then she ran over there to hide, I looked for a long time and didn't find her, I thought she was home?"

A child points to the mouth of the alley.

Mrs. Mo hurriedly ran over, there were some sundries piled up at the mouth of the alley, all of which were broken bamboo chairs and rattan beds thrown out by people, and sometimes there would be beggars living here, Mrs. Mo had told her granddaughter in the past not to go to that place, beware of beggars abducting children.

The mouth of the alley was empty, and the rattan beds and chairs were all traces of snow, wet, and there were no traces of beggars. Just next to a chair, because the ground was still a little wet, there were a few messy little footprints on it, and there were adult footprints next to it.

This must be the footprints of Nannan! Mrs. Mo shouted like crazy: "Nannan, Nannan, where are you, Nannan, don't scare grandma." ”

Her voice echoed through the alley, and she shouted a few times and was a little hoarse, and there was a cry in her shouting.

Mrs. Mo's shout alarmed the people in an alley, and everyone helped her to find it, but they searched several alleys around but found nothing.

So a man volunteered to go to the police station to report the case, when the police came at night, Mrs. Mo sat at the door in despair, her hair was messy, her eyes were red and swollen, she saw the police coming, slowly stood up, and cried loudly, watching the policeman slowly kneel down: "Mr. police, please, I only have one relative, Mr. police, please." She knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

A neighbor stepped forward to help her: "Mrs. Mo don't do this, let's all look for it together, and Mr. Police will try his best to find the child." ”

The next morning, before dawn, the owner of the grocery store at the mouth of the alley opened the door, looked at a black thing on the ground, and leaned over to see that it was a little girl, who had been missing all night. She was still wearing the small floral cotton robe from yesterday, her two calves were bare, her pants were missing, and she was lying on her side on the ground. ”

She died, and the medical examiner determined that she had been strangled and violated.

Since then, Mrs. Mo has lived in the world for only one reason: revenge.
