Chapter Seventy-Four: A Smile on the Corner of the Mouth
"What do you say! You drop out! You! You registered, you quit school! When Team Zhu heard Long Yang's answer, he was so angry that he didn't know how to say that Long Yang was good, and turned around in a circle at the door of the room.
"Don't persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind, I have to go back." After Long Yang finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the guest house.
"Hey! This Lao Ling shouldn't have told Long Yang the news. You wait, I'll send you! Team Zhu chased after him from behind.
"Wait for me, I'll go too!" Every day he trotted all the way and hurriedly followed behind.
Long Yang got on the return car, but he didn't go back to Ping County, he still had to change cars on the road. He couldn't even wait a moment longer, let alone a day or two.
Long Yang refused Team Zhu's kindness to go back with him, and at the same time refused to go back with him every day, he wanted to drop out of school, but he couldn't implicate Tian Tian.
"Team Zhu, what should I do about Longyang's schooling?" Asking about Team Zhu on the road every day, she was very worried about Longyang, she was finally admitted to the police academy, how could she quit at the time of registration.
"It's really troublesome, I'll think of a way, I'll send you to report tomorrow, and then go to the school leaders to see if this situation can be tolerated." By the way, is Longyang's notice not there? ”
"In the room! Long Yang left in a hurry and didn't bring anything, the notice must be there. "Because I live in Longyang's room every day, I know that Longyang's luggage is in the room, and something as important as the notice must be there.
"That's okay, let's see if we can get him to report his name first, and then ask for leave. That's it! ”
Hearing that Team Zhu thought of a way to solve the problem of Longyang's schooling, Tiantian was much less worried. I don't know what will happen to Longyang when he goes back, every day I remember that when I came, Patriarch Jin Ren was fine, how could he die suddenly?
"You've been living in Longyang's room?" Team Zhu, who was driving, asked casually.
"Hmm. Hey? How do you know Team Zhu? ”
After answering the questions every day, I suddenly came back to my senses, and my face turned red.
"As soon as I entered the house this morning, I noticed that something was wrong, and you put the floor away and thought I couldn't find it. I guess it's because you're a girl who is scared at night, so let's stay in someone's Longyang room! ”
"Team Zhu, don't say anything, they're little girls."
"You're still shy, who doesn't know that you're a brutal little princess."
"You know so many things about me, didn't Uncle Ling tell you?"
"How is Director Tian's health?"
"You know my dad?"
"You think you can hide it, besides~"
"And what?"
"It's nothing, let's think about Longyang." Team Zhu did not answer Tiantian's question positively, but changed the topic and talked about Long Yang again.
Speaking of Long Yang, he is now sitting in the car, and his heart has already flown back to Jin Cun Street. Jin Ren's health has always been very good, he is not sick or sick, Long Yang can't figure out how he died suddenly. The more anxious I was, the slower I felt the car was moving. I remember when I came, I quickly left home and arrived in Higashiam City, and there were so many things happening on the way.
After a day and a night, Longyang arrived at the neighboring county seat of Ping County, from where he had to transfer to Ping County. Just as Long Yang was looking for a car, a familiar voice sounded.
"Long Yang, come here!"
It was Ling Feng, he learned from the phone that Long Yang took a car here to transfer, so he drove here in advance to wait.
"Uncle Ling!" Long Yang's eyes were red, and tears were about to flow out when he saw it.
"Good boy, it's good to come back, it's good to come back!" Ling Feng hugged Long Yang, held him in his arms, and patted him on the back.
"How did Grandpa Jin die?" Long Yang asked anxiously.
"Let's go, get in the car, we'll talk on the way." Ling Feng picked up Long Yang and left, he also had something to tell Long Yang in a hurry.
It turned out that the evening before yesterday, Jin Ren said that he was a little uncomfortable and went to lie down on the bed. In the evening, his family told him to get up and eat, but he didn't answer, thinking that he still had to sleep for a while, so he waited for a while. At nine o'clock in the evening, the food was all hot, and he was called to get up again, but Jin Ren still didn't respond, and when he came closer, he found that there was no breathing and no heartbeat.
"Did you find anything special earlier?"
After listening to Ling Feng's story, Long Yang's mood began to calm down, his mind gradually calmed down, and he set out to find out the cause of Jin Ren's sudden death. In Long Yang's heart, he didn't believe that Jin Ren would die suddenly. But suspicion is suspicion, and he hasn't figured it out yet.
"No, there was no outside anomaly beforehand. According to the report, I just said that I was a little uncomfortable, just lie down. Ling Feng understood the point that Long Yang wanted to ask, but in fact, he was also a little uneasy. Since Long Yang left, Ling Feng also took time to come twice to sit with the old man, talk, and drink tea. He saw that the old man's body was strong and his spirit was very good, unlike a person who was about to die suddenly.
"What about after Grandpa Jin died?" Long Yang then asked.
"After that, when I heard the news, I immediately rushed there with people, and the old patriarch Jin Ren did not have any scars on his body, and he was lying there calmly." Ling Feng recounted the situation at that time, and his sadness was palpable.
"Uncle Ling, think about it carefully." Long Yang listened and thought about it, he was also sad and painful, but he couldn't take it lightly at this time, let alone let go of the clues. Long Yang needs to have first-hand information, which is more reliable from Ling Feng.
"There is no suspicion at all, the scene has been fully investigated, there is no harm, no poisoning, homicide, suicide is ruled out, and death of natural causes is ruled out."
"Think about it again." Long Yang continued to ask and did not give up.
"I've thought about everything, unless~ unless it's something you can see, I really can't think of anything out of the ordinary." Ling Feng was helpless. Yes, unless it was a ghost who did it, no one knows. Clues can be found, and the traces of ghosts cannot be seen, except for Longyang.
"Do you think I don't have any suspicions? I won't let go of anything I can think of, even if it's a ghost. Long Yang's expression was very calm, calm and terrifying.
"Oh, by the way, Long Yang, there is one more thing I didn't tell you, I didn't think about it at the time, and it's also a dispensable thing." Ling Feng seemed to remember something, and immediately said to Long Yang.
"Uncle Ling, say it quickly." Long Yang thought that Ling Feng remembered that he had found an anomaly, which might be an important clue.
"It's not a very important thing, I just found that Uncle Jin's expression after his death was a little, how to say it, it seemed to be with a smile, and it was not very obvious." Ling Feng recalled carefully, carefully considering the words.
"Smile?" Long Yang was puzzled, why Grandpa Jin smiled before he died, and he still kept his smile after death.
"It's a smile, I'm sure." The reason why Ling Feng didn't say it at the beginning was because it was indeed a dispensable thing, and ordinary people wouldn't care about such subtle expressions.
"What kind of smile?" Long Yang asked.
It was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was smug in his smile, or a smile that achieved his goal, and there seemed to be contempt and ridicule in his smile. It's targeted! Ling Feng described it carefully, for fear that he would use the wrong words and misunderstand the meaning of the smile.
"Are you sure?" Long Yang was also carefully recalling that smile and grasping the meaning.
"It should be, I don't know what Uncle Jin thought at that time, I can only give a rough idea. Besides, when you go back now, you won't see the smile on his face. ”
"What's going on?"
"Plus it's been almost two days and one night today, this weather, what do you say?"
Yes, if it weren't for Long Yang to come back to see him for the last time, Jin Ren's body would have been cremated. Although it is almost autumn, the weather is still very hot, and the corpse will become fat for a day if it is left for one more day. The corpse has changed, and the face has also changed, how can you see the smile on your face before.
The car sped on the road, and Ling Feng and Long Yang finally rushed back that afternoon.
Facing Jin Ren, who was lying in the middle of the house, Long Yang knelt silently in front of him, tears like two streams, flowing endlessly. Seeing this, the villagers next to him washed their faces with tears again, accompanied by Long Yang, painful and reminiscing.
"Long Yang, it's good for you to come back. It's true that the patriarch loved you the most when he was alive, and if you can rush back to see him, he can also be blinded. ”
"Longyang, this kid values love and righteousness, he is right to come back!"
"But what about Longyang's schooling?"
The villagers said a word, some praised Longyang's practice, and some were worried about Longyang's learning.
Jin Ren has passed away, and Long Yang has also rushed back, what should I do in the future. The people in Jin Cun Street are busy, and Long Yang is also busy with his affairs.
What is he doing? He visited all the people he had come into contact with that day, hoping to find clues from their mouths. The reality is cruel, and Long Yang has found nothing.
"Child, are you suspicious of the death of the patriarch?" The old people in the village called Long Yang over, because they saw that Long Yang was constantly questioning.
"Yes, Grandpa Jin has always been in good health, how could he die suddenly." In front of the old people in the village, Long Yang told the truth.
"No wonder you think so, and so do we. Child, don't worry, you can do your bidding, we old guys have your back. In addition, check this matter to be more hidden, don't ask directly, it will cause people to be uneasy, understand? ”
"I understand, I'll take notice."
At night, Long Yang and others held a vigil for Jin Ren, and with him, Jin Ren's son and Jin Ren's two grandsons. In fact, Long Yang hoped to see Jin Ren's ghost at night, so that he could know the specific reason for Jin Ren's death. Until the second half of the night, Long Yang didn't wait.
Long Yang put the sadness aside and put the investigation first. In order to solve the cause of Jin Ren's death, but it has no effect so far, could it be that Grandpa Jin really died of natural causes, because he thought too much.
Looking at Grandpa Jin's two grandsons, Long Yang suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked them yet. None of them are as old as Long Yang, the eldest one is called Jin Fang, and the younger one is called Jin Yuan, and the name is taken from the meaning that there are no rules and no square circle. Long Yang sat beside them and asked the eldest Jin Fang first.
"Brother Jin Fang, were you there before Grandpa's accident?" Long Yang tried to lower his voice as much as possible, without affecting others, like two brothers chatting in a low voice.
"I'm not here, I went out with my dad that day, it seems like my brother is there." Jin Fang pulled Jin Yuan and motioned for Jin Yuan to sit down a little.
Jin Yuan approached Jin Fang and Long Yang, and the three of them sat in a small circle, and the adults didn't care about them.
"Jin Yuan, Brother Yang has something to ask you." Jin Fang said.
"Brother Yang, you ask." Jin Yuan's name is not wrong, with a round head and a chubby face.
"Jin Yuan, were you present when Grandpa had an accident?" Jin Yuan was younger, and Long Yang asked carefully, for fear of scaring him.
"I played in my grandfather's house for a while, and then I was afraid that my grandfather would sleep, so I came out!"
"Did you notice anything?"
"What's the matter? By the way, it's grandpa who talks in his dreams. Jin Yuan told the plot of Jin Ren's dream.
"What did Grandpa say?"
"I didn't listen carefully, as if he was talking about a cane."
Walking stick, jade walking stick, Long Yang chuckled in his heart, and hurriedly asked Jin Yuan.
"Grandpa, what else did you say?"
"It seems that there is something else to think of and so on, by the way, grandpa still laughs."
Jin Yuan's words were like a bright light in the night, illuminating the darkness in Long Yang's heart. There is a reason for Grandpa Jin's death, there must be another person!
