Case 2 The Mystery of the Absence Chapter 1 The Beginning
I drove to a cemetery, followed the instructions of Meng Ran's parents to the corresponding location, and looked at the unforgettable smile on the tombstone in front of me, and my heart rippled again, but no matter what, this was a promise I made to that person.
A gust of wind gently blew across my side of my face, and the flowers in my hands also swayed with the wind, I slowly squatted down, touched Meng Ran's tombstone, and said affectionately: "I came today in the name of Yan Qing, and I said to you, I'm sorry if I've been late for a long time." ”
After speaking, I took a deep breath, put the flowers in front of the tombstone, and then stood up and continued: "Actually, I have a lot of things to say to you, what I know about you is all from other people's mouths, I really feel sorry for you, forget it, I really can't say it, rest in peace, those who have hurt you will never be able to hurt you again." ”
For some reason, there were large dark clouds in the sky, and the originally sultry air was soon gone, it looked like it was going to rain, I bowed to the tombstone, and left here, the weather forecast did not say that it would rain today, and it didn't take long for the light rain to fall, although I only believed in science, but at the moment of the rain, my heart admitted that maybe it was Meng Ran's tears.
Although the previous murder of the female anchor has not been too long, my heart has always been restless for Yan Qing's promise, and I have persuaded myself many times before, but every time in the dead of night, that feeling will still appear quietly, and now, I can completely leave this series of events behind, and a new life begins.
Because of my excellent performance in the last case, I don't know who spread my deeds, of course, the spread is not very widespread, but this is not what I want, because I don't have the level that murder cases must be solved, and the last case is actually not so difficult to be honest, but I have to be diligent in looking for clues. When I got home, it was half past eleven o'clock at noon, and the sky at home didn't seem to be playing cards according to the rules, the overcast was heavier, and it felt like it would rain at any time, so I quickened my pace and ran into the community, today my sister happened to take turns off, preparing lunch at home, and I smelled the smell of beef stew in the corridor.
Pushing open the door, my sister greeted with a smile in an apron: "You're back, everything is done?" ”
"That's it, this time it's completely put down."
"It's okay, no, I'm going to say hello to people again, anyway, you're already familiar with this road."
"Oh, really let it go, I'm not the kind of person who is infatuated, besides, I don't know anyone, it's just for a promise."
"What about promises, do you still want to say something from your heart, but you don't know how to say it?" My sister saw through my mind at a glance and smiled.
"Oh, my sister is still my sister." I bowed my head and smiled and admitted.
"Alright, let's come and eat, and try the beef I made."
"Sister, you're not too tired, what are you doing beef on this hot day, how tired, don't you also want to lose weight, it's good to eat something light."
"It's not for you, Team Chen specially told me to keep you in shape at any time, it seems that you have completely conquered Team Chen through a case, but don't be proud, there are still many things waiting for you to do."
"I know, my sister's lessons on weekdays are still so gentle."
"Little clever ghost, isn't it sunny today, why is it suddenly cloudy, but it's okay like this, it's not so impetuous." My sister turned her head and unbuttoned her apron as she spoke.
"You may not believe it when you say it, sister, I originally wanted to say something to Meng Ran, but I said a little bit when I couldn't say it, but as soon as I finished speaking, the sky changed over there, do you think there is really metaphysics."
"Your sister and I have always believed in science, aren't you the same, changing the weather can make you nervous like this."
"I'm not nervous, I'll just tell you, and I'll listen to it as a story."
My sister didn't say anything, I also sat on the seat and directly picked up a piece of beef and chewed it, the taste was really good, not so stuffy, it seemed that my sister had a doorway, I asked, "Who did you learn this from?" Well done. ”
My sister also picked up a piece and said while eating: "I learned from my mobile phone, why, I look down on your sister's learning ability?" ”
"No, how dare you, then you are so talented, you can take a chef certificate, so that I can take oral every day, and I don't have to be like in the past."
"What's wrong with that in the past, I didn't think I used to cook well." My sister smiled and pressed the knuckles of her fingers, and the sound of the joints became very crisp with my sister's voice.
"No, the food I used to make was very delicious, I mean I used to eat by myself, I can't eat with you, since I grew up, we have less and less time to eat together."
"Aren't I busy, besides, you're so clingy to me, how will you find a girlfriend in the future."
"What does this have to do with your girlfriend, isn't it natural to eat with your family, by the way, sister, you have worked until now, and I haven't seen you talk about your boyfriend." I asked gossipily.
"Hey, kids are curious about everything." As she spoke, my sister grabbed my ear with one hand and stared at me with wide eyes.
"Don't, wrong sister, it hurts!"
My sister slowly let go of her hand, and arranged her long hair with a very beautiful movement, I didn't dare to talk any more, and concentrated on eating.
While washing the dishes, my sister suddenly asked, "By the way, when are you going to start school?" ”
"There are more than two weeks left, no hurry, there is enough time."
"I haven't had time to take you out to buy some school supplies, why don't we go out and have a look this afternoon?"
"Yes, I don't have a problem." With that, I also walked over to help my sister clean up.
"Looks like you've never been to the supermarket with me."
"How could it not be, didn't I go to the supermarket with you and my father when I was in junior high school, and my father was not as busy as he is now."
Speaking of this, my sister lowered her head sadly.
"It's okay, Dad is busy for us." I added, "Isn't there still me, you took care of me when I was a child, and now that I'm so big and a head taller than you, it's time for me to protect you." ”
"Alright." My sister burst into tears and said with a smile, "You can't beat even half of your current level, do you believe it?" I still need you to protect me, so save it. ”
"Don't compare your strengths with my weaknesses, I exercise every day now, and one day, when you are in danger, you can rest assured that I will be the first to appear in front of you."
"I believe it's okay, haha, but your shoulders are a little useful, I can sleep on your shoulders when I'm sleepy, such a tall person is still a little useful, although it's just a loss." My sister stretched out her hand and squeezed her thumb and forefinger into a slit and smiled at me.
At about three o'clock in the afternoon, after my sister finished taking a nap in the bedroom, she told me to get dressed and prepare to go out, and then I saw my sister wearing a pale pink embroidered midi dress coming out of the bedroom, and at the same time pulling her hair back, her long hair drew a beautiful arc along her shoulders under my sister's play, and I asked in surprise: "You, what are you doing with such a beautiful dress, just going out to the supermarket." ”
"What's wrong with this, can't my sister want to be herself again, I don't have the opportunity to wear it like this every day, does it look good?" After my sister laughed, she put on this dress and light makeup, and said that it is really not an exaggeration for fairies to come to the mortal world.
I don't know what words to use to answer my sister, and my expression management system is "disconnected" at this moment, except for surprise.
"Midea is speechless."
"It's really speechless."
After speaking, my sister took out a pair of black high heels from the shoe cabinet, and I hurriedly persuaded: "Sister, I think it is better for you to wear white casual shoes like this, and you look like a little girl." ”
"Really?" My sister put the high heels back, took out a pair of white casual shoes, looked in the mirror after putting them on, and said with a smile: "Well, it's really good, your vision is not bad, there is a chance to chase girls." ”
"If only I could chase my sister." I joked.
"Then I'll be your little girlfriend again, anyway, it does look like I'm getting younger."
"Don't, sister, that's what you say, don't take it seriously, you're my sister after all."
"I don't want to give you some face, but I don't want love." My sister said coquettishly.
If I hadn't gone out for a walk today, I really didn't know that my sister had such a side. Walking on the road, my sister held my right hand and followed the rhythm of my steps, with a sweet smile on her face, which really felt like a couple, which also made me a little uncomfortable, because passers-by were looking at me with envy, and I knew what they were thinking.
"Sister, I feel so strange if you want to keep a low profile." I whispered.
"What's there, they look at theirs, we go ours, and no one gets in the way."
"But I really can't help but want to laugh like you, it really feels weird."
"You just have too little contact with the outside world, you usually don't leave the house if you don't have a case, and you finally come out once, I want you to have a good experience, naturally, if others really regard me as your girlfriend, doesn't it mean that I look very young at my age, which is good."
"If you really think so, then listen to you, anyway, my life is in your hands, and there is no way to disagree."
"You seem to be complaining to your tone."
"Mainly, we are obviously sisters and brothers, you are dressed so young and beautiful, and then you are holding my hand like this, I have been emphasizing the word sister and brother in my heart."
"It's okay, I'll let you go when I get to the place, don't be so restrained, if you have time in the future, let's go out and walk around together, it's good if you get used to it."
"Sister, do you want to find a boyfriend, holding me like this, are you fantasizing about shopping with your boyfriend?"
"Don't your kid's ears hurt again?" My sister asked softly.
"Hehe, sister, you look better when you're gentle, just like now."
My sister snorted, still with that smile on her face, just like that, we came to a supermarket, my mind was not here at all, I didn't know what I was thinking, it could be said that I didn't think about anything, I completely followed my sister's direction and then walked, after being taken around by my sister, I said: "Sister, this floor seems to be full of clothes, why don't you go upstairs to see?" ”
"I didn't just come out to buy things for you, I also wanted to see if there were any clothes that suited me, I hadn't been out for a long time, what was the hurry, which one do you think has good clothes, express your opinion."
"I, I don't look at clothes, for me this kind of thing can be worn, but if you really ask me to recommend it, I think the pants in front of me are good, ripped jeans, I think it suits you quite well."
"Then go ahead and try it."
After saying that, my sister pulled me directly over, so that I almost didn't react, the clerk saw the guest coming, and also greeted him cordially, and then began to look at my sister's figure, and recommended suitable clothes to my sister, while I sat on the soft chair next to me, looking at the completely different sister in front of me.
At this time, I don't know who called out my sister's name on the side, I turned my head and found that the source of the voice was a man about the same age as my sister, and when my sister found out about this person, she said happily, "It's you." ”
