Chapter 4: She Has a Secret
Hearing her say this, Ye Lili raised his head to look at him, then at the two middle-aged men next to him, and said, "Brother Chao, then it's troublesome for you, let's leave a few days later and help me find out one thing." ”
It turned out that Zhusu Town was Ye Lili's hometown, and Ye Lili was born in a village called Qingzhi under this Zhusu Town. Ye Lili's parents are called Ye Zhibin and Xia Xiaomei respectively, both of whom are villagers in Qingzhi Village, so Ye Lili also lived in Qingzhi Village when he was a child. When Ye Li was 5 years old, she was sent to the kindergarten in the town by her parents, five days a week, only when it was Zhou Liu and Sunday, Ye Zhibin Xia Xiaomei would take her back to her home in Qingzhi Village. Although the family of three does not spend much time together, they cherish the time together.
Yet one day just 16 years ago, it was Friday. After Ye Lili returned home, Ye Zhibin excitedly told her: "Lili, tell you something, soon my parents will also move to Zhusu Town, so that you can see your father and mother every day, are you happy." ”
"Happy, happy, I want to be with my mom and dad." Hearing his parents say this, he was very happy to be young.
"Leave. You're waiting a week or two for your dad and I to move into town. Seeing her daughter so happy, Xia Xiaomei told her that she needed to wait.
Two days later, Ye Zhibin Xia Xiaomei sent Ye Lili back to the town and told her that their family would be together soon, so she could wait with peace of mind.
Before leaving, Ye Lili waved at them: "Dad, Mom, you have to come over early." ”
Since that day, Ye Lili has been looking forward to her parents coming to her as soon as possible, but this day has not come true after all. Two days later, she received the news that her hometown in Qingzhi Village was on fire, and her parents were both killed in the fire.
At that time, Ye Lili was less than 10 years old, so he lost his parents and became an orphan. When he said this, Ye Lili couldn't help but cry bitterly.
Han Yuchao saw her like this, and also stepped forward to hug her: "Lili, I really didn't expect you to have such a tragic experience, although I have also experienced the loss of relatives, so I can understand your feelings at that time, but you are even more miserable than me, I was at least an adult at that time, don't hold it back, cry out loud if you want to cry." And Ye Lili didn't push him away, so he lay in his arms and cried for a long time.
Since then, Zhusu Town and Qingzhi Village have become an eternal pain in Ye Li's centrifugal bottom, and she never wants to go back there. In the past ten years, Ye Lili has been living a life under the fence, wandering around. Every time he walked on the street, or on TV, or on any other occasion, when he saw a family of three happily together, Ye Lili's heart would feel an inexplicable tingle.
And Zhusu Town and Qingzhi Village have also become places that Ye Lili is unwilling to step into again in this life, which is an eternal pain in her heart. So when Han Yuchao proposed to travel to Zhusu Town this time, Ye Lili wanted to refuse.
But after coming to Zhusu Town for a few days, Ye Lili felt again: Since she has come here, why not go to the place where she has lived to take a look, maybe there, she can feel the power given to her by her parents in the sky, but she doesn't want Han Yuchao to know. So before leaving Zhusu Town, Ye Lili went to the place where he lived back then.
Ye Lili drove there for more than an hour, but found that it had long been a place and no longer the scene it had been. Ye Lili couldn't find any traces of that year, but just as she was about to leave silently, a middle-aged man in his 40s stopped her.
"This little girl, I think you seem to be looking for someone just now, who are you looking for?"
Regarding this stranger's sudden inquiry, Ye Lili didn't want to respond more: "There's nothing I haven't looked for, uncle, I'm just coming over to take a look." ”
However, the man chased after her, looked at her carefully, and said, "Are you from here, you are here to find relatives." ”
Hearing him ask, Ye Lili was shocked, but she still said, "No, I don't understand what you're talking about, I'm leaving." As he spoke, he turned and left.
Before she could take a few steps first, the man shouted behind her, "Little girl, do you know Ye Zhibin?" He's been dead for years, don't you want to know the truth? ”
Hearing him say this, Ye Lili was shocked, she turned her head and asked, "Who are you, how do you know him?" ”
The man said: "It seems that my guess is correct, presumably you are Ye Lili, the daughter of Ye Zhibin and Xia Xiaomei." You and your dad are really carved out of the same mold, and I can see it when I look at it. It's normal that you don't know me, my surname is Wang, my name is Wang Li, and I once investigated your parents' case, but because of physical problems, I have changed careers now. But as soon as I saw you, I remembered what happened back then. ”
Looking at Ye Lili's puzzled expression, Wang Li said again: "Little girl, it seems that you don't believe it, it doesn't matter, but an old friend of mine is a policeman, he also participated in the investigation of this case back then, and he seems to know some things, or I will take you to him, although this is an unsolved case, but when he is free, he will still find a way to investigate." The police station is not far ahead. ”
In this way, the two came to the Public Security Bureau. Wang Li called a policeman named Hu Ding. Wang Li said to Ye Lili: "This is Police Officer Hu, we were colleagues back then, but later I changed careers due to injury." But usually we have time to get together and talk about some cases. For example, 16 years ago, the fire at Ye Zhibin's house. ”
Hu Ding saw Ye Li leave and said: "You are Ye Lili, I had an impression of you when you were an intern, but when I went back and looked through the information, I found that you were the daughter of Ye Zhibin and Xia Xiaomei back then." At that time, I wanted to ask you about the situation back then, but before I could realize it, you had already left. So this matter was delayed like this, I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence, Lao Wang actually ran into you unexpectedly. ”
Hearing Hu Ding say this, Ye Lili remembered that when she went out for an internship when she was in college, she did meet a policeman surnamed Hu, but she was not impressed by this policeman Hu. But in the dark, there is a destiny. Unexpectedly, a few years later, the two met again.
