Chapter 160: The Year (2)
"You know I'm coming?" The people who came were very surprised.
"No, do you believe your intuition?" Lei Chan shook his head and glanced at his watch again, there were already fourteen minutes until twelve o'clock in the morning. He continued: "From the moment we came to explain our intentions, you showed that the day had finally arrived. Then, when recounting the past, he showed a look of reminiscing about the past.
While it could only be an old man reminiscing about his past, my gut tells me that it's not that simple. You may not believe it, but my instincts are sometimes scary. Imagine when something like that happens to a school, and you can choose another place to rebuild the school with your ability at that time.
However, you stubbornly rebuilt a new school building near the old school building, expanding the school to where it is now. At first, I just thought that you had built such a big school for other purposes.
But when I got the school information from the fraternity, my mind changed. If you really had a purpose, you wouldn't have been guarding this school diligently for more than 50 years. Even after you fell seriously ill and gave all your wealth to your children, you always had this school! In the magic capital, where every inch of land is valuable, this school is undoubtedly coveted by countless people, but you never want to give up.
For money? I'm sure I'm your age and I'm already downplaying on money. So, you have been holding on for so long, just for one thing, for people! For one of the two students who disappeared from school! Am I right? Fourth Lady? ”
Listening to Lei Chan's reasoning without panting, like a series of cannonballs, the fourth lady with a calm expression, Mrs. Ma nodded approvingly. raised his head again and looked at the dilapidated old school building in front of him, and finally showed an emotional but remorseful look on his face: "Dai Jing and Huang Dan, two missing students, I still remember the names and appearances of the two of them, because of their disappearance back then, I have an unshirkable responsibility...!" ”
"It's because of Huang Guiru, right?" Lei Chan interjected very politely, seeing that the fourth lady showed a surprised expression for the first time, he didn't have any smug look, but said with a sincere face: "When I suddenly asked Huang Guiru's name, I saw that your hands were clenched, but you quickly let go. You're nervous because you know the name, you just don't want to say it! ”
Old Madam Ma's chest rose and fell a few times, and finally she sighed deeply and said, "Although I don't know where you got this name, you are right, I know her!" Huang Guiru is a childhood friend of mine. We grew up together and went to school together. If I hadn't left here to study abroad, or the two of us would have stepped into society together, found a job, and ended up having children and getting married.
When I returned home, I couldn't find her again, and then I met my husband and gained his great influence after his death. I asked many people to find her whereabouts, but there was no news. Until one day 60 years ago, the people I sent out found out that Gui Ru had joined the Red Cross before she disappeared, and that was her last job. In the end, I locked on to this place, which was the last place where Gui Ru worked before he disappeared. ”
"The Red Cross? In other words, the reason for everything is because this is the former site of the Red Cross branch? Lei Chan couldn't help but ask in surprise.
Of course, for Lei Chan's behavior of interjecting without quality, Mrs. Ma still maintained a good sense of self-cultivation, shook her head and responded: "I don't know, in fact, the clue will be broken here." At that time, it had been nearly thirteen years since Gui Ru's disappearance, and this was no longer the original Red Cross branch, but the school building of Yude School.
In order to investigate the deeper truth, I asked someone to buy this piece of land, and I wanted to know more answers from here. In order to hide the sight of the people, I re-expanded the school. However, God destined everything I did to be useless, and I stayed in school for a long time, and still did not find any news about Gui Ru, until one night.
It was dark that night, and at that time I had given up hope of finding Gui Ru, and just stayed in the principal's office to deal with some things. In a daze, I fell asleep, and then I dreamed of Guiru. Gui Ru was covered in blood, as if she was crying something, and I desperately wanted to call her, but I couldn't get close.
Finally I woke up from a dream, I didn't tell anyone about it, but I firmly believed that Gui Ru was here, and it was very likely that he was dead! Later, it was the matter of Dai Ling and Huang Dan, Dai Ling is my goddaughter! Not many people know about this matter. One day I accidentally told her about the dream of Gui Ru, and then she patted her chest and promised that she would definitely help me find Gui Ru.
At first, I thought it was just a child trying to please me. But I soon found out that I was wrong, Dai Ling had a little sister, Huang Dan, who was very obsessed with that kind of weird books. When I noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, I realized that the two of them had actually begun to indulge in the magic of conjuring spirits. I am a baptized believer, and I should not have believed in this kind of ghost and god theory, but because of Guiru's incident, I began to believe in this kind of thing.
I already felt that something was wrong, and I told the two children to stop studying that kind of thing, but it was too late. I finished reprimanding the two children that night, but I didn't notice their expressions, which were obviously expressions that refused to give up. They still had a long-prepared conjuring ritual, and then they disappeared...
Over the years, it has become the biggest nightmare of my life, and countless nights when I wake up from my dreams, I always think of these two children. If I had been more resolute that day, maybe that wouldn't have happened. If I hadn't told them about my dream about Guiru, maybe they wouldn't have disappeared. But there is no if, I have been here for so many years, just to wait, to wait for what the young Taoist priest said back then, one day the seal will be unlocked again, maybe one day I can see the two children again and talk to them... I'm sorry! Mrs. Ma was already remorseful, and she could see that what happened back then was a kind of torture for her, a torture that lasted for decades.
"So... Is this what you kept secret? At this time, a rough voice sounded behind Mrs. Ma, and Lei Chan looked behind Mrs. Ma with a complicated expression at this time. Under the miserable white moonlight, an old man wearing a green military coat and exuding a sloppy atmosphere all the time on his body was carrying a big bag and looking at Mrs. Ma with complicated eyes.
Don't think about it, this person must be Wang Fatzi's master...
