Chapter 10: Falling Love
Sitting in the car back to the office, I couldn't help but talk to Mu Zihan about the case, this time, Mu Zihan no longer hid it, but told me everything he knew while driving, this poignant love story. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It turned out that Feng Shuying and Liu Shujuan were children who grew up in the same orphanage, and the two little girls lived and studied together since they were children, inseparable and very well-behaved. The teachers and director of the orphanage had speculated that the two little girls were most likely a pair of sisters, and with their self-motivation, they would definitely have something to do in the future. Sure enough, the two of them lived up to expectations, and more than ten years later, they were admitted to the national 211 key universities with high scores.
However, I don't know if it's fate or creation, but the two of them fell in love with the same excellent boy at the same time in college, that is, Li Mingsheng.
Li Mingsheng has excellent grades in college, and is also active in various clubs and student union activities, which can be regarded as a popular figure on campus, although his appearance is not very outstanding, but this small flaw cannot hide the light and attraction that he exudes.
At an event held by the student union, Feng Shuying and Liu Shujuan met Li Mingsheng, and the three quickly became good friends who talked about everything. In particular, Feng Shuying and Li Mingsheng are in close contact, and Liu Shujuan, who is relatively introverted, has also become more active under their drive. Oddly enough, even so, during the four years of college, none of the three of them publicly proposed to formally fall in love and socialize.
"It's unbelievable, in such an open social environment, the three of them have only been good friends for four years, it's really unbelievable." Listening to Mu Zihan's story here, I couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, but that's what I found out yesterday, there's no doubt about it. It's just that I don't want you to glorify him, because it's not the pure friendship you think it is. Mu Zihan still seems to be angry with Li Mingsheng: "Actually, at the beginning, Feng Shuying secretly confessed to Li Mingsheng, but unfortunately, Li Mingsheng liked the relatively introverted Liu Shujuan, so he refused." And in order not to hurt Liu Shujuan, Feng Shuying and Li Mingsheng also hid this matter, and everything was as usual, as if nothing had happened. ”
"Where did you know that? How I feel as if you once lived with them. I asked curiously, I really couldn't figure out what kind of investigation Mu Zihan did last night, and he was able to dig out such a private thing about others.
"Of course, I couldn't have lived with them, but that doesn't mean that no one knows about them, for example, their college classmates and roommates. And finding out these people and asking for details is a must as a detective. Mu Zihan was a little proud, he seemed to like to see me look dazed.
With that, he went on to speak. Finally, at the graduation party where the three of them were about to graduate from college, Li Mingsheng confessed to Liu Shujuan for the first time. All the people present at that time thought that this would be a good story, and they coaxed the two of them together, and Feng Shuying had already figured it out, and also held heartfelt wishes, hoping that her two best friends could be combined.
However, to everyone's expectations, Liu Shujuan actually rejected Li Mingsheng's confession, and the scene at that time was very embarrassing. And Liu Shujuan fled the scene crying alone in a group of classmates' doubts, and Feng Shuying also chased out out out of concern for Liu Shujuan.
"These are the last memories of the three of them by their college classmates, and since then, the three of them seem to have disappeared from everyone's eyes all at once, and they have never appeared again, and they have not even participated in the final graduation photo." Mu Zihan continued.
"Isn't that weird? If so, why did Liu Shujuan marry Li Mingsheng? "I can't understand it anymore.
Because it was not Liu Shujuan who really married Li Mingsheng, but Feng Shuying. It was Liu Shujuan who died of a malignant tumor four years ago, which is why she rejected Li Mingsheng, because she already knew that she had an incurable disease at that time. Mu Zihan's voice became very low, I could hear the heaviness in his words, and I seemed to have figured everything out at once.
Liu Shujuan, what a pitiful woman, saw that she finally waited for the man she had always admired to confess to herself, but her own life had come to an end, in order not to drag down the man she loved, she endured the pain of heartbreak and rejected the other party, at that time, she was unimaginably bitter in her heart.
Feng Shuying, a more pathetic and pitiful woman, the man she has always loved, but she loves her best friend. And when she decided to give up, she knew that her best friend had an incurable disease, and her days were numbered.
I don't know what the two talked about after she chased Liu Shujuan out, but I can imagine that it was precisely because of this that Feng Shuying was determined to change her face, plastic surgery into her friend's appearance, and marry Li Mingsheng instead of her deceased friend's name. Marry a man you love deeply, but you know that the other party doesn't love you.
Feng Shuying's inner pain and struggle over the years made me unable to imagine how determined she was and how much she loved Li Mingsheng to make such a decision. The saddest thing is that in the end, she actually died at the hands of Li Mingsheng because of a misunderstanding.
I can now understand the reason why Mu Zihan couldn't forgive Li Mingsheng, because he was so stupid, why couldn't he give his wife more trust? Why can't they be more transparent between husband and wife? Well, perhaps, such a tragedy would not have happened.
In my contemplation, we returned to the office, and then Mu Zihan and I sat in our chairs, and neither of us spoke again. Perhaps, this tragic case is not a big case, but it makes both of us feel very heavy.
"Jingle Bell~"
However, the silence did not last long, and Mu Zihan's mobile phone rang.
"Hey, Uncle Wang, what's the matter?" After Mu Zihan connected, he said, it seems that Uncle Wang called., and then I don't know what Uncle Wang said on the other end of the phone, but I saw Mu Zihan suddenly bounce up from the chair and said with a shocked face: "What? Li Mingsheng committed suicide by jumping off the building? Moreover, there is still a suicide note in his room in which he confesses all the charges? When did this happen? ”
"Ding Dong~"
At this time, the doorbell of the office also rang in time, and seeing that Mu Zihan was still talking to Uncle Wang on the phone, although I was not in the mood now, I still reluctantly got up and opened the door, but when I saw someone outside the door, all my bad mood disappeared.
Because, the person standing outside the door is none other than Liu Shujuan, or more importantly, Feng Shuying's ghost, and standing next to him is a man who is about 170cm tall, not outstanding, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, giving people a very spiritual feeling, who else can it be if it is not Li Mingsheng?
"Please come in!" I stepped out of my way and said.
"No, we're leaving, so let's finally say thank you to the two of you, thank you Detective Mu and Assistant Qin, although we are dead now, we can finally be together as a family, thanks to the help of the two." As he spoke, Li Mingsheng and Feng Shuying bowed deeply to me and Mu Zihan, and then turned around and left slowly. I don't know where they're going, and I'm not sure if the two of them will be happy together as ghosts, but, at least now I see satisfaction in their faces, not resentment.
"Well, Uncle Wang, I know, isn't it a good thing to be able to close the case like this? Okay, I've got something going on now, I'll get in touch next time. Of course, Mu Zihan also saw the arrival and departure of Li Mingsheng and the others, he was originally emotional, and showed a meaningful smile, hearing that Uncle Wang was still narrating the case on the other side of the phone, but he obviously didn't want to talk anymore, and after making up a random reason, he hung up the phone, looked at me and said: "Siyuan, we haven't eaten much today, so we're hungry." Let's go, let's go to dinner, I'm in for a treat. ”
"Okay, I'm hungry enough to eat the whole pig now." After relaxing, it was indeed as Mu Zihan said, I felt hungry, and I really didn't eat anything all day today.
"Cannibalism is not a good thing, Siyuan." After Mu Zihan finished speaking, he glanced at me with a smile and left the office first, while I followed closely behind, arguing with him about who was the pig.
