"Check? There is no sign of illness at all, what can be checked? He looks like a normal person. That's what it was back then...... However, your proposal should be right! However, one evening in the winter of the following year, Cortana came home from school and did not see her mother when she entered the house, so she went out to look around. The neighbor told Uncle Wang that at noon, he saw Xiao Na's mother dressed up very beautifully and walked out of the door alone. He also stepped forward and asked, 'Little Nama, where are you going?' With a big smile on her face, she said she was going to the town to find her father. The neighbors didn't care at the time. But now it's night, and Xiao Na's mother is still nowhere to be seen, everyone is in a hurry, and the whole village is out to find it. I remember it was a very cold night, and there were snowflakes in the sky. At noon the next day, Wang Jingyao came back with his daughter-in-law on his back, and found it under the cliff of life and death, and when he found it, the person was already frozen. There is only one way to go to the cliff of life and death, and in summer, only those who collect medicine will go. In winter, no one dares to take a step. I remember that on the day of the funeral, Xiao Na almost cried out of breath, and Uncle Wang had no expression on his face, just muttered, 'What are you crying about?' Your mom isn't dead, she's really not dead. She was buried behind the big mound on the west side of the village. Later, Uncle Wang found someone to level the mound and build the current house. He said that this would be closer to Cortana's grave. ”
"Didn't you say that Xiao Na's mother's body is ......," Han Qing asked puzzled.
"Yes, their bodies are in the Westinghouse!" Mia said word by word.
"But ......" Han Qing was still puzzled.
"My mother died early, maybe because of the same fate, and the two of us became good sisters. I get tired of going to and from school every day. Because our respective fathers like their sons, we are both determined to be better than boys. So, we agreed that starting from strengthening our bodies, we would run to and from school every day and run back. Later, we simply made ourselves sandbags for leggings or something. ”
"Oh, I understand now, those firewood on the roof must have been put on by herself!" Han Qing suddenly realized.
"Yes, we often play games like this at her house, where she catches it at the top and I throws it below...... It's like two naughty boys. It's a pity that we use all this cleverness for play, which delays learning. However, Cortana has a good habit of drawing, and she especially likes to paint on the wall, what it looks like, maybe inherited from her mother's genes. Her mother's embroidery is very good, embroidering what is like anything. Once, while she was drawing, I asked her, do you miss your mother? She actually smiled and told me that she didn't want to! Because when she misses her mother, she can see her mother. It scared me. Cortana whispered to me that her dad had bought a big freezer and put his mom in the family's Westinghouse. Then he told me to keep it a secret, because Uncle Wang wouldn't let her tell anyone. I really regret telling my dad about it, my dad! Ahem, the whole village knew. But fortunately, everyone understood in their hearts and didn't say anything. However, I hurt Cortana deeply! She swore she would never ignore me again! Made me cry at home for half the night. In the summer when the two of us graduated from town high school together, Cortana had an accident, and someone saw her walking alone in the mountains and never came back. Uncle Wang took people to the mountains to look for him like crazy, and went to the cliff of life and death to look for him, but he didn't find it. Later, I heard that he also went to the town police station to report the case. ”
"In other words, she hasn't been looking for her, and she's missing?" Han Qing smiled.
"No, I found it! In the second half of the night on the third day, Uncle Wang suddenly knocked on my door. I wanted to ask my dad for help, saying that he was too tired and pitiful to him, and he couldn't move. I got dressed and got up and walked outside the door, and even though it was summer, I still felt cold and had a lot of goosebumps on my body. I saw my father and Uncle Wang carrying a long white object in the direction of the grove. My hairs stood on end, because the more I looked at it, the more I felt that it was a person wrapped in the white cloth! I quietly followed them through the woods and up the mound. The two of them stopped at the door and put the object down, and at the same time I saw an arm in the middle of the object, and a string of brown beads on the arm, which I knew, had been left by Cortana's mother, and Cortana had always worn it, and I had never seen her take it off. I really wanted to pounce and take a good look at Cortana, my best friend! However, I didn't dare, I had broken her trust in me, and I was sorry for her. I don't have the face to see her again! Then I saw them carry Cortana into the house, and the lights came on in the Westinghouse. My dad came out very quickly, and he saw me and said, 'Cortana is with her mother, let's not talk to anyone about this.' However, there was no impermeable wall, and the people in the village seemed to be spreading the story. At this point, Mia suddenly got off the edge of the kang, walked to the door, pushed the door open, and said to the Westinghouse: "Cortana, I only betrayed you once, really! It's really only once! Please be sure to be me! ”
"Do you really believe that, Amy? No, it's Cortana lying inside? Han Qing walked to the door and gently patted the door panel with his hand.
However, when the two men opened the door, it was empty!
If it weren't for Mia leading the way, he wouldn't have walked this snow-covered mountain road if he gave Han Qing ten more dares. Although it is possible to arrive at the Big Duck Mountain Psychiatric Hospital more than an hour in advance.
"How do you know the freezer in the Westinghouse is empty?" Mia paused, she wanted to take Han Qing's hand and walk together, but she didn't dare to reach over several times.
"I never believed Amy was dead. Because, the days she spent with me were so real and unforgettable. It's just that I didn't expect her mother to be in there either. It really didn't come as a surprise to me. ”
"Well, I didn't expect that either...... Perhaps, Cortana has been lying to me? A hint of sadness flashed in Mia's eyes, and she wondered why Cortana hadn't changed her name to Amy.
"I don't think so, there should be something else going on."
"Something else? So what could it be? Mia shook her head thoughtfully.
"Let's go, let's pick up the pace!" Han Qing grabbed Mia's little hand. Mia's heart was hot, and she actually pulled Han Qing and ran forward.
Before noon, the two of them rushed to the Big Duck Mountain Psychiatric Hospital. Standing in front of the door, Han Qing saw that there was actually a snow plough parked in the yard. Suddenly, he seemed to see himself running to the car with Amy in his arms, ignoring her struggles, shoehorning her into the car, and driving himself to the gate. Thanks to his father Han Dalin, who drove a car, when he was very young, he dared to poke the car away, and he was beaten up a lot. But why didn't Amy want to go with her that night?
"Hey, why are you stunned? Oh, I see, you're afraid they'll recognize you. In this case, you wait outside for my news, and I'll go in and see. Mia patted Han Qing on the shoulder.
