Chapter XVIII. Contact
The closer it was to night, the more absent-minded Song Ke became, every time the homework in school started, and every time he stopped writing, his eyes always glanced involuntarily at the door.
Will she come?
Everything that happened in the morning was indeed like a dream for Song Ke, and what she hoped for at this time was that reality would prove to her that those incredible things did not only exist in her mind.
'Knock Knock Knock ......'
At this moment, there was a knock at the door outside, and if it weren't for the fact that her mother was outside the door, she would have rushed out.
She bit the barrel of her pen and couldn't help but think about it.
There are actually no more visitors these days, so if someone comes at this time, it must be them......
Thinking like this, her heart couldn't help but pound, and she looked at the open exercise book, and she no longer had the heart to do it.
"Xiao Ke come out quickly, there are guests at home."
After waiting for a while, Song Ke finally waited for this sentence, she immediately put down the pen and pushed the door open.
There was only one guest who came into view, and it was the woman named Liang Wei.
When Song Ke came out, they were still on the same topic.
"The work is one day off, and the working hours are from nine in the morning to nine in the evening, which is very close to here, you can take a look." Liang Wei handed out a business card with a number to contact the other party.
"I still have to take care of my daughter, this job ......" Xia Lan took the business card, and responded while examining it carefully, but her tone was a little hesitant.
However, this time Liang Wei did not persuade, she said: "This is our company to help you find a job, if Sister Xia really doesn't want to, then forget it." โ
Xia Lan immediately sensed the coldness in Liang Wei's words at this time.
This made her can't help but show a smile, the difficulties she just mentioned in the morning, they all took it to heart and immediately helped her solve it, but she herself pushed back.
Liang Wei deserves such an attitude.
Thinking of this, Xia Lan subconsciously threw the thought of rejection behind her.
Staring at the address and work on the business card, I struggled several times.
And because of this, she didn't notice Liang Wei's eager look when the door opened.
"That'...... I'll try it. After blurting out in despair, Xia Lan had a vague premonition that she would lose something in the future.
However, now she has no choice, the treatment of this job is the best she has ever seen, and she misses this time and does not know if there will be other opportunities in the future.
"Hello, Auntie." When their topic was over, Song Ke shouted.
Liang Wei, who heard this, smiled slightly and asked, "Isn't Xiao Ke going to school now?" โ
"Nope." Xiao Ke shook his head timidly, although he didn't say anything, but when he thought of her life experience, it always made people feel pitiful.
"Learning is a must, and it's not good for children to be at home all the time." Liang Wei turned her head and said to Xia Lan seriously.
Xia Lan nodded lightly with a guilty face and said, "I'll let her go to school tomorrow." โ
The two exchanged a few more words, and then Song Ke begged her mother to let Liang Wei talk to her for a while.
Thinking that Song Ke had been chained to his home this month, and no one had become more and more autistic, Xia Lan nodded in agreement.
Quietly closing the door, Liang Wei turned around and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"I'm sorry...... Ever since my father died, my mom has been like this, very possessive, and has to see me all the time. There was a trace of distressing vicissitudes on Song Ke's immature face that had not grown, and he continued, "She has always advised me to forget those things and come out, but I think she is the one who has never been able to come out." โ
Liang Wei sighed lightly at this, the maturity that did not conform to the girl was the cruel treatment from reality.
The girl had been carefully observing Liang Wei, and her expression made Song Ke uneasy.
Did she regret it?
Seeing the girl's nervous appearance, Liang Wei chuckled: "Don't worry, I won't regret it." โ
If she had a choice, of course she didn't want to involve the girl in front of her, but since she had made up her mind, no matter what happened, it wouldn't change what happened next.
"Time is limited, so let's get started now." Liang Wei then pulled out a bright silver piece of paper as thin as gold leaf from her sleeve.
In Song Ke's eyes, this piece of paper emitted a glowing light, as if it was gathering some kind of mystery.
"Jingle bellโ" But unfortunately, the phone rang at this time.
Liang Wei quickly made an apologetic gesture to Song Ke, and directly pressed the answer button.
"Hey, what's going on?" Liang Wei was very puzzled, obviously Lu Hong knew that what was going to happen now was something very important to Song Ke, but he still chose this time to call.
"Tang Yu has two pieces of news." On the other end was Lu Hong's voice, "The first news is that he basically confirmed that the murderers of the two cases we saw in the morning were committed by the same person. โ
"That's good news." Liang Wei exhaled lightly, feeling a little excited, "That means that the murderer has done two cases in a row, and if you contact the one in Nancheng, maybe there will be a breakthrough in our next actions." โ
"There's another piece of news." Lu Hong's voice was still low, as if he didn't hear the joy in Liang Wei's tone, "Xiaoya's body is missing." โ
Xiaoya is the girl who committed suicide and fell from the building.
"What?" Liang Wei was surprised that her voice was a few degrees higher, and then she noticed Song Ke's curious expression, so she lowered her tone, "How could this happen, what did Tang Yu say, did you go to investigate?" โ
"The person on duty in the morgue only found out at about eight or nine o'clock in the morning, and then urgently contacted the person in charge of the hospital, but still couldn't find it, so he called the police." Lu Hong sighed, "The current situation is that Xiaoya's body disappeared for unknown reasons, Tang Yu went to investigate the situation, and found nothing, and we are similar." โ
At this time, Liang Wei pinched her mobile phone tightly, recalling the process of seeing Xiaoya for the first time and getting along with Xiaoya, and a nameless anger suddenly appeared.
Even though she had some intention of taking advantage of it at the beginning, the two years of getting along had already imperceptibly made her have feelings for Xiaoya.
Moreover, at the scene of the fall, Xiaoya's mother's hysterical screams could not make Liang Wei forget how much impact a person's death can have on their loved ones.
And how should they collapse when they learn that even the corpses no longer exist.
"It's definitely not done by ordinary people, it's someone else who wants to use Xiaoya's corpse as an experiment." Liang Wei took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and looked beyond the transparent window to look at the colors of the night sky.
"We've thought of that, but we're not good at the reconnaissance side, so there's nothing we can do right now."
The moon, which should have been like a disk, had a small missing corner, and the originally faint starlight was extinguished into nothingness under the moonlight.
"Could there be other 'lawbreakers' besides murderers?"
Suddenly, Liang Wei thought of this possibility.
