Mu Jingchi sat there without speaking anymore after saying that, and he didn't know how long he sat there, when the sun outside had slowly sunk and the light in the room was dimming little by little, Mu Jingchi rested on the desk when the unfinished cup of tea was so cold that it couldn't be cold anymore.

He got up, and without a single superfluous word, he went out of the chamber.

After he left, Chun'er and Sister-in-law Gui immediately walked in from outside, and when they saw me still lying there in this position, the two of them cried beside my bed again, and I don't know how long they cried, I really didn't have much strength, and I fell asleep in a daze.

After this night passed, I lay in bed for the next two days without moving, and I didn't say a word, Chun'er and Sister-in-law Gui didn't dare to do the same foolish thing as before, so this time, both of them guarded me inch by inch, even if there was really something, if I wanted to get out and deal with it, there would definitely be one left between the two of them in this room.

The guards of the whole palace were not as loose as before, there were guards outside the wings, guards inside the courtyard, and even the well outside was sealed.

I lay on the bed and listened to the sound of the hammer fixing the manhole cover outside, lay on the bed and closed my eyes again, Chun'er, who was guarding my bedside, saw that I seemed to want to sleep, so she pulled the quilt on my body for me, and then got up from the side of my bed and walked outside.

Chun'er immediately grabbed Sister-in-law Gui, and then took her to the outside, the guard outside the wing room closed the door, and the two stood at the door, I heard Sister-in-law Gui ask Chun'er: "Miss, are you sleeping?" ”

Chun'er said to Sister-in-law Gui, "I just closed my eyes again and fell asleep." ”

Sister-in-law Gui asked again: "Didn't you say a word today?" ”

Chun'er sighed and said, "No, I didn't say a word, it's still the same as before." ”

Sister-in-law Gui was so anxious that she said, "Are the Japanese really so important to Miss?" The young lady didn't even want her life. ”

Chun'er said: "Who knows, people don't know how to die, but it's okay to die, and Miss won't have to fight with Mr. for this matter." ”

Sister-in-law Gui said: "That's what I said, but now I'm half-dead here, and I haven't tasted any sweetness." ”

When Sister-in-law Gui said this, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "What did you pull me out just now?" ”

Chun'er then remembered something and asked, "Did Mr. say when will Miss go back?" ”

Sister-in-law Gui said: "Naturally, you can't live here for a long time, the case over there has not been decided, at least until the case is closed over there." ”

Chun'er said, "It's okay, at least wait for the young lady to calm down here before going back." ”

Sister-in-law Gui said: "Besides, my husband's health is not good, and he still came by force that day, and I heard that he has been sick to bed again in the past few days." ”

Sister-in-law Gui stood there and sighed, and was silent for a while and said: "I don't know what happened in the past two years, the Mu family is getting more and more uneasy, what will happen to Mr. in the future, no one knows, what will become of it in the future, no one dares to think about it." ”

Chun'er said: "Let's not think so much first, think so far, it's the right thing to take care of Miss first." ”

Sister-in-law Gui said: "No, I think so too, now the Mu family is far less peaceful than before, I just hope that the young lady's side will not toss any more troubles." ”

When the two of them said this, they were all full of emotion for a while, and neither of them spoke again, and after a while, Chun'er asked again: "Why do you say that Mucun died so well." ”

Chun'er asked this, and Sister-in-law Gui suddenly lowered her voice extremely low and said, "Oh, you still dare to ask, in this matter, it is clear that either Miss is dead, or that Kimura is dead, do you think Mr. will really let Miss die?" Take 10,000 steps back, can Mr. tolerate that Kimura and Miss's affair in Japan? This Kimura lives in this world for a day, and this unbearable past will remain in this world for a while, how can Mr. ......"

When Sister-in-law Gui said this, she suddenly thought of something and paused and asked, "Is Miss asleep?" ”

Chun'er said, "It's asleep, the door is closed, and there is a curtain inside, so I can't hear it." ”

Sister-in-law Gui was still a little worried, she pulled Chun'er and said, "Let's go and talk elsewhere." ”

Then there was the sound of the two of them leaving.

The two didn't dare to go too far, so they stopped a little in front of the door, but at this distance, they could only hear the two of them talking in a low voice outside, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.

At this time, the voice of the Wang family's maid suddenly came from outside the house, and she probably saw that Sister-in-law Gui and Chun'er were outside, so she called out loudly: "Sister Chun'er, Sister-in-law Gui!" ”

When Chun'er and Sister-in-law Gui heard the maid of the Wang family calling them, they immediately stopped talking and looked at the maid, who walked towards them, stopped beside them and said, "There is a person outside the door who said that he wants to see your young lady." ”

Sister-in-law Gui and Chun'er were shocked and asked, "What?" Who outside knows that my young lady is at Mr. Wang's house? ”

The maid said, "We don't know, she doesn't speak much of us, she seems to be Japanese." ”

"Japanese?" Sister-in-law Gui and Chun'er said these three words at the same time.

Chun'er seemed to think of something, and she said, "I know who it is." Then he said to the maid, "Invite her in." ”

The maid listened to Chun'er's instructions, and immediately replied: "Yes." ”

After that, the maid went away, and after the maid left, Sister-in-law Gui said, "Oh, how dare you let the Japanese come to see Miss?" ”

Chun'er said, "That person is a friend of Miss, I have seen him." ”

Sister-in-law Gui sighed and didn't speak.

It didn't take long for the maid to ask for someone to come in from outside, Chun'er seemed to see her, and immediately walked towards Liangzi, after arriving at her, she didn't know what language to use to talk to her for a while, and finally thought about it, and could only say Jinling dialect: "My young lady is inside, I'll take you in." ”

Probably didn't care if she understood, so he made a gesture of invitation to her, and led her inside.

When Chun'er's footsteps reached the door, she pushed the door open, and then quietly came to my bedside, opened the tent on the side of the bed, and then looked at me who was still lying there and whispered: "Miss, miss,"

She called me twice, and seeing that I had no tendency to wake up, she hesitated for a few seconds, then looked back at Liangzi who was waiting outside the door, and was about to lower the curtain and leave, when I opened my eyes.

Chun'er was overjoyed, put the curtain in her hand, and asked with a smile: "Miss, are you awake?" ”

I looked at Chun'er, who was probably trying to make me happy, and immediately said, "Miss Ryoko has come to see you, Miss." ”

I stared at Chun'er for a long time, and although I didn't speak, she understood what I meant, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go and invite her in." ”

After she finished speaking, she put down the tent, then walked outside, and quickly invited Ryoko in.

As soon as Ryoko saw me lying on the bed, she immediately said loudly, "Nozawa." Then he quickly leaned over to the bed.

I didn't expect Ryoko to come, so I struggled out of bed, looked at Ryoko, and finally after so long, I opened my mouth and said the first sentence, and I said, "Why are you here?" ”

As soon as Liangzi looked at me, he said with red eyes: "I begged Chief Wang to bring me here, and I knew that you could never be still in prison, so I guessed that you were either at home or somewhere else, but he refused to take me in, saying that he would ask you, so I stayed outside and waited for your maid to come and reply to me." ”

I leaned back on the bed, looked weakly at Chun'er who was there, and said, "Go down." ”

Chun'er smiled and said, "Yes." He quickly withdrew from the room.

After Haruka left, Ryoko clasped my hand and said, "I don't believe that Kimura will commit suicide by poisoning, this thing must not be true, Nozawa." ”

She cried and said so.

I didn't respond to her, just sat there in a daze.

Ryoko said again: "How could Kimura commit suicide, doesn't he want Xiao Nai?" Does he care about his mother? Ryoko remembered something, and suddenly thought of something, and she said, "But Kimura wrote me a letter the day before he died, and handed it to me." ”

She immediately slipped it into my hand and said, "Look what it means." ”

I took it from Ryoko's hand and opened it, and there were a few lines of Japanese written in it, asking Ryoko to take care of Xiao Nai and his mother for him.

Ryoko cried and said, "If he didn't commit suicide, how could he write this letter to me, and I recognize his handwriting, it's not wrong that it was written by Kimura himself." ”

I looked at the hurried lines for a long time, then held the paper tightly in my hand, and I did not answer Ryoko.

Ryoko cried so hard that she said, "How could it be so soon, we didn't expect this to be the case, did Kimura commit suicide to protect you, Nozawa?" But he was in prison, where did the poison come from on him? ”

I said, "Is there nothing else he can do but leave this for you?" ”

Ryoko said: "No, he only gave me this letter, I don't know what is going on, and now the prison here in Jinling asks me to take his body back in place of Kimura's mother, or hand it over to the visiting delegation." ”

I said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Ryoko said, "I want to take his body, but—"

When Ryoko said this, she suddenly pounced on me and couldn't restrain herself from crying.

I let her hold me.

I don't know how long she cried, but when she gradually calmed down, I said to Ryoko, "What I was most afraid of happened anyway." ”

When Ryoko heard me say this, her hand holding my body loosened, and then she looked at me.

I said, "I'm sorry, I killed him." ”

Ryoko shook her head vigorously and said, "Nozawa, don't say that, even if that's the case, Kimura must be willing to come." ”

When she said this, she seemed to think of something, and immediately wiped the tears from her face and said, "I have one more thing to tell you, I will go back to Japan in a week, and my work at the hospital has been completed, and I will leave by plane immediately." ”

I looked at Ryoko, and Ryoko looked at me.

She was reluctant in her eyes, and she said: "The reason why I insist on coming to see you today is because I want to tell you that I can't bring back Kimura's body, and I will hand him over to the visiting group, and I can't stay here for too long, so Nozawa, we have to say goodbye." ”

I looked at Ryoko, and I was speechless for a while, but after a while, I hugged her, and the two of us hugged each other, and neither of us spoke for a while.

I don't know how long the time has passed, but Ryoko patted me on the back and said in a choked voice: "You have to keep in touch in the future, you know my number over there." ”

I said, "Have a safe journey." ”

Ryoko: "Hmm. "Yes.

Ryoko left the letter Kimura had given her, and when she left, she almost broke down in tears.

After that, I sat there in a daze with the letter left by Kimura, and when the Chun'er and the others came back, they didn't dare to make too much movement when they saw me like this, but dared to wait quietly on the side.

I read the letter for a long time, and then I lay down again, lying on my side on the bed.

I stayed in Wang's house for more than a week, and after a week, my health had gradually improved, so in order to avoid gossip from outside reporters, Wang Xueshuo secretly sent me back to the prison.

Although Kimura died suddenly and violently in this matter, the case has not yet been concluded, and naturally Wang Xueshuo has to give an explanation.

I hardly have to think about the verdict in this case, Kimura and I have no legal proof that we are husband and wife, and from this point of view, I am not convinced at all if I insist on the relationship between Kimura.
