Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Canal 15

"Zhiqin, wait for me!"

I heard a girl's cry from the west side of the bridge, raised my eyes to look west, first saw a boy in front of me, was climbing up to the top of our bridge, under the reflection of the sunset, the boy's face looked very gloomy, his slender white face had a pair of beautiful eyes, but the eyes were so indifferent, he was carrying a backpack, and a non-woven bag in his hand, although someone was shouting behind, he did not turn his head, or climbed up to the bridge unhurriedly.

I looked at the girl who was calling behind me, she was wearing a lilac and white tulle dress, her beautiful face was full of anxiety, the sneakers under her feet trampled on the cement bridge deck, she was also carrying a big school bag, and her cherry-like ruddy mouth was still shouting: "Zhiqin, wait for me." ”

If I heard it right, I heard that the girl in the back was called "Zhiqin" just now, could it be that the tall boy in front of me is Xuehai's son Zhiqin, who is studying at Mingwang Vocational High School?

What a coincidence, I took another look at the boy who was walking up, his face was white and pure, it did look a little like the face of the sea of snow, I scanned his clothes, a red basketball suit, a pair of Nike sneakers were so dirty that they didn't match his fair face at all, he didn't have any signs of wearing linen and filial piety, it seemed that he didn't know that his mother had his legs cut off by the propeller, and was now lying in the cold funeral home freezer.

That's right, Xue Hai only reported his wife's disappearance at noon today, and Zhiqin was still in school when Chunhua was confirmed to be dead, and now Xuehai is still in Liu Da's hands, and no one will notify Zhiqin before.

The boy didn't pay attention to the girl behind him, and when I saw the boy approaching, I stopped him and asked, "Excuse me, your name is Zhiqin?" ”

The boy raised his head and glanced at me, maybe he saw the police uniform I was wearing, he was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ling Fei and Hou Yuting, turned his gaze back to me, there was a trace of unfriendliness in his eyes, and he said, "Yes, I am called Zhiqin." ”

I asked, "Is your father's name Xue Hai?" ”

A trace of confusion flashed in the boy's eyes, and he replied, "Yes, my father's name is Xuehai, may I ask you what's the matter?" ”

Some inexplicable thoughts drifted through my heart, how could it be so coincidental? I met Xuehai's son on this bridge, I had something to ask him, Liu Da must still be staring at Xuehai now, and he must not have had the opportunity to contact Zhiqin, so I'll do it for him first.

The girl in the back walked up, she may have only found that there were three policemen standing on the bridge at this time, who were intercepting Zhiqin, she showed a look of surprise on her face, I glanced at her, her pink and crimson face had a pair of almond-like eyes, her eyes were more confused than Zhiqin, I noticed her eyelashes, trimmed very decently, it seems that now there are very few girls who have not trimmed their eyelashes, vocational high school coursework is more relaxed, maybe there will be more time, I was in high school, day and night spelling test papers, How can you spare to trim any eyelashes? I thought of the eyelashes on the railing, and my heart flashed the eyelashes of Ling Fei and the girl in front of me, and I thought to myself, this on-site investigation is really meaningless, go back and see Chunhua's corpse, let's not think about it for the time being.

In order to ease the tension of the two middle school students, I asked gently: "Zhiqin, I am a forensic doctor Su, don't worry, the brother and sister next to me are my colleagues, it's okay, are you out of school so late?" ”

Zhiqin glanced at me, and seeing that my tone was so gentle, he seemed to be a little relaxed, and he said, "Oh, there is something wrong with the school. ”

I pointed to the girl next to me and asked, "Are you classmates?" ”

Zhiqin glanced at the girl to his left, turned his head, although he didn't squeak, I already had points in my heart, this girl is not just a classmate, but also may not be an ordinary classmate, but his girlfriend, now children are pretending to be obedient at home, it is not uncommon to find a friend or something outside, besides, it is a vocational middle school, and the teacher is not so strict in this regard.

The girl was also a little relaxed at this time, and she took the initiative to say, "Yes, I am Zhiqin's classmate. ”

I casually asked, "What do you call you?" ”

The girl smiled reluctantly and said, "My name is Xiaoyue." ”

I said, "Xiaoyue, hello. ”

Xiaoyue smiled and didn't speak, but Xiaoyue's eyes looked as if something was holding her and making her so unrelenting, was it just facing a few policemen? I didn't think much about it, so I asked Zhiqin: "You have something going on at home, do you know?" ”

Zhiqin said coldly: "What's the matter? ”

I thought to myself, should I tell him the news of his mother's death at this time? On such an occasion, if I tell him, will he suddenly lose control of his emotions and lose control of his emotions? Why don't you ask about the rest first?

I asked, "Zhiqin, that's the case, we need to handle the case now, and I want to ask you some questions, do you think it's okay?" ”

Zhiqin still said very coldly: "Okay, what do you want to ask?" ”

Xiaoyue pushed Zhiqin's hand on the side, probably signaling that he had a better attitude.

I asked, "What time did you get out of school yesterday?" ”

Zhiqin's attitude seemed to be a little warmer, and he said kindly: "It's the same, it's the same every day." ”

I added, "Is it this time of day?" ”

Zhiqin said, "Almost." ”

I said, "Then you came home yesterday, what was your dad doing?" ”

Zhiqin said: "He, he has nothing to do every night, just read the newspaper and watch TV. ”

I almost blurted out about his mother, only to remember that his mother had passed away at noon yesterday, and I thought that I should not mention his mother for the time being, so as not to disturb my train of thought, I continued to ask, "Then when did your father sleep yesterday?" ”

Zhiqin said: "It's the same, it's the same as usual, I usually go to bed at ninety o'clock." ”

I asked, "Did he say anything to you last night?" ”

Zhiqin said: "No, he and I have nothing to say. ”

I continued, "So do you think he was different last night than usual?" ”

Zhiqin heard me ask him like this, his eyes became a little strange, and he asked me a little vigilantly, "What's wrong with my father?" ”

I said, "Your dad is fine now, it's all right." ”

When Zhiqin heard that his father was fine, he said, "I don't think he's any different." ”

Everything is a very bland answer, Xue Hai looked normal last night, Zhi Qin's words made me feel that something was wrong, if Xue Hai pushed Chunhua into the water yesterday, no matter how good the psychological quality is, it is impossible to stand still, and the night is the same as usual, reading newspapers, watching TV, going to bed on time, and not confiding in my son some words of conscience condemnation.

Luoxia has gradually become gray, Zhiqin and Xiaoyue's youthful faces are also covered with a deep twilight at this time, I look at the pair of children in front of me, and my heart has become a little messy.
