Chapter VIII: Murder I
Perhaps many people like to live in a big house. The spacious view and generous layout give people a pleasant mood.
However, there is a premise, that is, to have a happy and reunited family.
Otherwise everything will backfire.
This Friday was nothing special compared to any other day of the week, and if anything, it was that it wasn't very sunny and cloudier than ever.
Quiet nights.
Xiyue's mother sat alone in the living room of the empty villa, and no one could understand how she felt at this time. The TV was looping the surveillance footage of the main entrance on the day of Principal Ruan's accident, and God knows how many times she had watched it. There was a half-can of ground coffee and an empty coffee cup that had bottomed out on the coffee table, and it was hard to imagine that Xiyue's mother had slept after the incident. Her eyes were red, her sideburns were messy, and she was curled up on the sofa very haggard.
This is the fourth day of Principal Nguyen's accident.
The sound of a key inserting into the lock hole suddenly came, breaking the dead silence.
Xiyue's mother didn't seem surprised by this, as if after Mr. Ruan left, there was nothing in this world that deserved her attention.
The main door opened, and a woman in her early thirties changed her slippers in a hurry, hurried into the living room, and rushed to Xiyue's mother's side.
"Sister Luan Yu, don't be like this!" The woman saw Xiyue's mother's haggard state, and persuaded her heartache and anxiety.
Xiyue's mother's name is Luan Yu.
Luan Yu slowly turned her head, looked at the woman sitting next to her, stayed for a long time, her red and swollen eyes left a line of tears, and she threw herself into the woman's arms and cried: "Zhuo Ya ......"
This woman's name is Qu Zhuoya, and she is the nanny of the Ruan family in the past, because she has been in the Ruan family for too long, she and Luan Yu get along like sisters.
Qu Zhuoya couldn't help but shed tears: "Sister Luan Yu, don't be like this. If you are like this, Mr. Ruan will not be relieved......"
Luan Yu hugged Qu Zhuoya tighter: "My parents have passed away, Xixi is no longer at home, I am about to collapse by myself, so I can't help but call you, in fact, it's good to talk to you, you don't have to come over." It's so late, it bothers you so much! ”
"Sister!" Qu Zhuoya hugged Luan Yu's shoulders fiercely, and tears couldn't stop flowing out, "How can you talk!" You're all like this, how can I rest assured of you! The cause of Mr. Nguyen's death has not yet been ascertained, you can't abuse yourself like this! ”
Luan Yu was stunned and cried again: "Zhuoya, I'm really, really sad......"
Qu Zhuoya shook her head and shed tears, and kept stroking Luan Yu's back with her hands.
"Sister Luan Yu! It's my fault, if I keep doing it for a while, if I don't leave your house, maybe it won't happen! Qu Zhuoya said reproachfully.
Luan Yu shook his head and said, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I just can't stand it alone, and I want you to accompany me!" ”
Qu Zhuoya nodded, looked at the surveillance video played on the TV, and saw the coffee powder on the coffee table that had been wiped out half of the barrel, and asked Luan Yu with some reproach and some distress: "Sister Luan Yu, you won't have been sleeping, right?" ”
Luan Yu shook her head and asked her, "If it were you, would you be able to sleep?" ”
"I'm going to get some sleep, too! Otherwise, people will collapse! Qu Zhuoya said reproachfully.
"I can't sleep at all, can you talk to me? I'm going to make you a cup of coffee! Luan Yu said, shaking her body to stand up.
"Sister Luan Yu! You sit down, I'll make coffee! Qu Zhuoya couldn't bear to see Luan Yu tossing like this, so she snatched half a bucket of ground coffee and walked to the kitchen to make coffee.
When something like this happened to Mr. Ruan, Qu Zhuoya was also very sad. Although he is not his relative, he has been with the Ruan family for more than ten years, and he has some feelings. But she couldn't see Luan Yu torture herself like this, she was thinking that she must coax Luan Yu to sleep for a while.
Qu Zhuoya boiled hot water, brewed two cups of coffee, and walked to the living room. The surveillance video on the TV was still playing, but Luan Yu had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
Qu Zhuoya put down the coffee cup and gently covered Luan Yu with the blanket.
Luan Yu called her just now, and her voice was very hoarse. Luan Yu said that it was good to talk to her on the phone, but Qu Zhuoya still insisted on coming over. She is also a woman, of course she understands Luan Yu. Luan Yu must need her to accompany her at this time.
Luan Yu must have not slept for a long time, and he was sleeping very deeply at the moment, and his breathing was heavy. Qu Zhuoya sat on the sofa, her eyes attracted by the surveillance video, and she also wanted to know if there was another hidden cause of Mr. Ruan's death.
Watching the surveillance video is a matter that requires a lot of patience, but there is nothing else to do anyway, Qu Zhuoya simply looks at it from the beginning.
The surveillance camera is mounted on the main entrance, but the footage is from the doorway to the corridor leading to the living room, but the main entrance is not visible. However, as long as you enter through the main entrance, you must pass through this corridor, and all this cannot escape the surveillance video.
Qu Zhuoya chose the x4 playback speed for surveillance video playback, and the picture has always been quiet, not much has changed.
Surveillance footage shows that Mr. Ruan and Luan Yu went out to work in the morning, and then no one appeared in the surveillance footage until the evening. Looking at it, Qu Zhuoya felt sleepy, but Qu Zhuoya was patient, and she watched intently while drinking the coffee she had brewed.
…………
Situ Shan's figure became thinner and thinner, she hugged her legs, curled up on the hospital bed, turned her head to look at the evening street scene outside the window and wept silently. Grandpa has been with her all day, and has just gotten up to go home to do some things, and Wei Hengyi will soon come from school to accompany her. Every day, she spent half an hour alone in the hospital room, which was a good opportunity for her to vent her feelings. Feelings of fear, grievance, disappointment, and sadness were intertwined, gushing out of Situ Shan's eyes and sliding down his cheeks. She cried quietly.
"Don't cry~" A gentle voice echoed in her ears, and Wei Hengyi gently sat on the edge of her bed, a strong hand holding her into her solid chest. Situ Shan hugged Wei Hengyi tightly, but the tears did not stop.
"Let's eat first!" Wei Hengyi said softly.
Situ Shan still hugged Wei Hengyi tightly and shook his head in his arms.
"We're going to recover soon, look at how strong you are! Hold me so much that I can't breathe! Wei Hengyi said, gently stroking Situ Shan's back with his hand.
"When my chemotherapy is finished, it is estimated that my hair will fall out, and I will have no strength in my body, and I can't hold you even if I want to!" Situ Shan cried aggrievedly.
"Fool! When this treatment is done, you are more than half better. You see that you haven't lost much hair now, and you won't lose too much when you finish a course of treatment~ Besides, it will grow back when it's done! Wei Hengyi also hugged Situ Shan tighter.
"I had a dream last night that my hair was falling out, and you disliked me and stopped coming to see me!" Situ Shan said softly.
"Dreams are all reversed!" Wei Hengyi said seriously.
"I checked today, and the probability of leukemia curing or long-term stability is only 50%, and even if it is cured or stable for a long time, there is still a possibility of recurrence, and if it recurs, it is basically certain to die!" Situ Shan said flatly.
Wei Hengyi was born in a pharmacy room, so he didn't know the stubbornness of blood cancer. But he hugged Situ Shan, and his tone was so firm: "On average, the cure rate is 50%, but for you, the cure rate is 100%. With a promotion rate of only 1%, you can be admitted to the school that is so difficult to get into, and leukemia with a cure rate of 50% can still stump you? It's man-made! Fighting the disease is as different as going to school, and if you can get a ticket to the school for your parents, you can also defeat leukemia for me and your grandfather! ”
Situ Shan hugged Wei Hengyi tighter.
"I was ignorant when I was young, and my mother left me with lung cancer. When I was growing up, my dad left me with lymphoma. Now, you are my only relative, and I will never let you leave me again! Wei Hengyi said word by word.
