Chapter 104: Reflection in the Well
Long Yang closed the door of the room again and slept with his head covered. In fact, Long Yang was not asleep, he was thinking and dodging. Thinking about his mission, avoiding the people he was hiding from.
The events of last night have been haunting his mind. Qingyu, she is looking for her mother next to the old well, who is she looking for, is she really looking for her mother? Could it be that she is connected to two dead mothers? Still is? Thinking of this, Long Yang's nerves couldn't help but be nervous, and he suddenly suspected Qingyu's body. Two old wells, one south and one north, why Qingyu appeared there twice. Moreover, she wore different clothes, two different manifestations.
Long Yang is dodging, reducing the chance of meeting Bai Lan. Since Bai Lan confessed to him last night, he has deliberately avoided her. Avoid meetings, avoid embarrassment, avoid misunderstandings, and avoid further entanglements.
Sudden entrustment, inevitable choice, sudden confession, unprovoked liking, having to stay away. Ay! Long Yang almost scratched his scalp in the quilt. I am not afraid of the difficulty of the task, and I am most afraid of the love of my children. He and Tian Tian met and knew each other, and I don't know if they are in love. But for some reason, there are such misunderstandings and grievances every day, which makes Longyang overwhelmed.
The misunderstanding that is already with every day is deepening, and it can't be deepened anymore!
I didn't expect Bai Lan to be so direct, it should have something to do with her experience. She has been living in the wasteland with Old Man Bai, she can't get in touch with the outside world and others, she doesn't have any crooked thoughts, everything is very direct, like is like, no need for any reason.
Ay! Long Yang lifted the quilt, exposed his head, and breathed heavily. Since I accepted the task, I solved the case as soon as possible and didn't think about anything else, especially emotional matters. The most difficult thing in the world is love, and the most incompelling thing is love!
Why isn't it dark yet? Long Yang let out a long sigh and put the quilt on his head again.
The door of Long Yang's room was knocked on several times, but he ignored it, he knew that it should be Bai Lan.
It wasn't until the door of Long Yang's room was almost broken that he got up and opened the door. "Don't let people live!" Long Yang said as he opened the door.
"It's me!" Yu Fei rushed directly into the room and said anxiously. He ran out of breath, sat on the bed, picked up the cup and drank the water in the cup.
"You!" Long Yang anxiously wanted to interrupt, but it was too late.
"What's wrong?" Yu Fei looked at Long Yang, and then looked at the cup in his hand.
"No, nothing?" Long Yang held back a smile and hurriedly waved his hand.
"This, you won't, this won't be?" Yu Fei hurriedly threw down the cup, put his hand into his mouth, and vomited.
"Where do you want to go! It's just my mouthwash. Long Yang spread his hands and tried to explain.
"Holy, gag!" Yu Fei waved his hand to stop Long Yang from continuing to speak. I was retching uncontrollably in front of the trash can. "Long Yang, you're so disgusting, the mouthwash is still spitting in the cup."
"No, I mean my mouthwash doesn't work, it's just a glass of water."
"You're going too far!" Yu Fei rolled his eyes, almost throwing up all his morning and noon meals. And after knowing that it was in vain, all that remained was that he still wanted to vomit and spit out his dissatisfaction with Long Yang.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Again, another one died!" Yu Fei couldn't control his desire to vomit, and finally said the purpose of the trip. "Team Zhu asked me to inform you to go to the scene, vomit!"
"Then don't go quickly!" Long Yang ignored Yu Fei and rushed out of the room.
"Wait for me, you know where the death is! You're still running! Yu Fei grabbed a piece of paper, covered his mouth and ran out.
"Old well!"
"Damn, how do you know?!"
A cordon has been set up at the old wellhead to the south, and the perimeter of the line is full of nearby people.
"Whose daughter-in-law is this, why can't you think about it?"
"It's the old Zhou family on the street, hey, it's pitiful!"
"Isn't the daughter-in-law of the old Zhou family pregnant? How can you suddenly commit suicide? ”
"Didn't the two before that also get pregnant, or committed suicide by jumping into a well!"
"Something's wrong, aren't we here?"
"Don't talk nonsense!" The person who spoke looked behind him, as well as around. "Let's go, everyone! Don't mess with ominous things. ”
"Let's go! Walk! Walk! ”
After a while, the onlookers left the scene in a hurry, and the rest were comrades from the police station and members of the criminal police. There are ghosts, and the saying that ghosts harm people has spread far and wide.
Nearby, even if the entire street, the entire municipal district, there are few pedestrians, everyone closes the windows and closes the house, and it is no longer easy to go out at night. In particular, women in their thirties, pregnant women, are even more afraid to go out.
"What's the situation with the Zhou family?" Zhu Hongyuan frowned and asked the investigator beside him.
"The Zhou family is nothing?" The scout replied.
"What do you mean by nothing, what is nothing?!" Zhu Hongyuan was obviously not satisfied with the investigator's answer, and couldn't help but start a fire.
"Team Zhu, nothing is just harmony, like the previous two, there is nothing special to discover." The investigator's meaning is obvious, and it is the same as the first two suicide cases. At least, what has been learned so far is that the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family will not commit suicide.
"Fuck it!" Zhu Hongyuan rarely swears, but there is a special time, that is, when the case is difficult to solve, he can't help but scold his mother.
"Is Long Yang here?"
"I've already asked Yu Fei to call!"
"Hmmm! Follow the procedure and do it immediately! ”
"Yes!"
Long Yang came, and after he arrived, he didn't report directly to Zhu Hongyuan, he was observing nearby. Before, Long Yang suspected Qingyu, and he was looking for Qingyu. If the first two cases were committed by Qingyu, then she should be nearby.
With Long Yang's ghost eye skills, Qingyu would not escape his eyes. Unexpectedly, fortunately, there was no trace of Qingyu's ghost near the scene. Isn't it her?
Since there was no trace of Qingyu, Long Yang walked into the scene. The deceased was very young, female, and should have been thirty years old, with a slight bulge in her lower abdomen.
"Long Yang, you're here!"
"Team Zhu, you have something to hide from me!" Long Yang looked at the stomach of the deceased and was very angry.
"Come and talk." Zhu Hongyuan pulled Long Yang and walked to a secluded place.
"Okay, there's no outsider here, you can say it!" Long Yang's anger did not subside, and his tone was cold and hard.
"You're right! I hid it, but I also had to do it. Zhu Hongyuan put his hands behind him, and his mood was complicated.
"What can't be said!"
"The three women who committed suicide were all pregnant, and their deaths were miserable and strange! Considering the special circumstances of the case and the significant impact, we have been conducting secret investigations. Not only did I hide it from you, but I also kept it from all the scouts! Zhu Hongyuan's emotions were excited, but his voice became lower and lower.
"Why!" Long Yang didn't understand, since it was the truth, everyone had to face the facts, how could there be any reason to dodge.
"Why? Why do you say? Did he kill? There is no evidence that he killed! Is it suicide? All the evidence proves to be suicide! Whether it's suicide or homicide, we all have the responsibility to give you an explanation! But do we have it? Zhu Hongyuan's considerations and concerns do not only come from the case, but from his heart. He resisted the pressure and rallied for support in order to give an account to the deceased. But for now, he can't!
All efforts were in vain! Regardless of the traces of the scene or the state of the deceased, they all fall under the category of suicide. If you can't find the reason and reason for their suicide, how can you feel at ease? Was the case hastily closed?
Every suicide is one corpse and two lives!
Every suicide is the destruction of a family!
Every case, is it really a suicide?
Zhu Hongyuan's words hit Long Yang's heart hard, making him lose his anger and hatred. Oh, yes? How much resentment, how much hatred, would kill a woman and the fetus in her womb so cruelly!
Who did all this? I must find him, bring him to justice, and avenge his unjust death! Long Yang clenched his fists tightly.
"Team Zhu, I misunderstood you! I'll be sure to give you an answer! Long Yang approached Zhu Hongyuan and nodded heavily.
"Brother, I can only rely on you!" Zhu Hongyuan stretched out his hand and put it on Long Yang's shoulder. Similarly, Long Yang stretched out his hand and put it on Zhu Hongyuan's shoulder. One hand is anticipation, the other hand is commitment.
The scene was quickly processed, after all, it was ostensibly a suicide, not a case.
Zhu Hongyuan led the investigators to begin to visit and investigate, their workload was very large, and tonight was destined to be another sleepless night.
Long Yang didn't leave, he understood Zhu Hongyuan's mood, and he understood his intentions even more. Why did he hand over this case to Long Yang, because he knew that this case was not ordinary. It is estimated that investigators alone will never be able to solve the case.
Long Yang sat at the mouth of the well without any scruples, his hand rubbing the green bricks of the well wall, with a sense of history, the vicissitudes of life, and the resentment of the unjustly deceased.
Ay! One corpse, two lives! It's miserable! It's miserable!
Longyang picked up the well water, and the water was not like the water in winter, but it was a little warm.
Its warmth aroused Long Yang's curiosity, and Long Yang couldn't help but look into the well. The water surface in the wellhead is calm and dark, but it can reflect the face of Long Yang.
Looking at the reflection on the surface of the water, Long Yang couldn't help but tilt his head and adjust his posture.
However, Long Yang moved, and the reflection on the water surface did not move!
Long Yang's hairs stand on end! Long Yang changed his posture again, but his reflection still did not move, as if it remained on the surface of the water forever, no longer changing.
Long Yang stood up vigilantly, his eyes fixed on the surface of the well. In the well water, he has a delicate face, handsome and stylish, but he looks weird.
I? Is this me?
The reflection in the water surface turned up at the corners of his mouth, as if mocking Long Yang.
"Poof!" Long Yang picked up the stones by the well and threw them into the well.
"Ahh Long Yang's hand pressed against his heart, and there was a sharp pain in his heart for no reason.
The ripples in the water at the wellhead rippled in Long Yang's heart, making his heart tingle for a while. Long Yang's face was pale, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time in the face of the wellhead that disappeared and reflected.
I'll do it, don't worry! I'll give you an explanation!
