Chapter 11 Visits
"Huh? You won't be back to City D during the eleventh or seventeen-day long holiday! Ye Wei'an held the phone and said with some surprise: "Then what have you been doing in the past seven days?" It's moldy at school! ”
"Am I such a idle person in your eyes?" Cheng Xu retorted helplessly, "I have something to do at school!" Anyway, didn't you say that you were going to come to S City to play with me in October? We'll see you soon! ”
"Okay, okay! You're a busy person, and you can't even have a holiday on the eleventh day! Ye Wei'an joked in a deliberately yin and yang way.
"Yes, you see I'm so busy, why don't you hurry up and sympathize with me." Cheng Xu hurriedly put on a pitiful look and begged for sympathy.
"Well, sympathize with you! Let's do it first! I'll be home tomorrow! We'll see you in half a month! ”
"Bye-bye." After Cheng Xu finished speaking, he put down his mobile phone, the smile on the corner of his lips disappeared inch by inch, and above the building behind him, several big characters at the D-City Railway Station were extremely conspicuous.
Yes, he deceived Ye Wei'an, in fact, he has returned to D City. The reason why he didn't tell Ye Wei'an that he had returned to City D was because he decided to do a big thing without Ye Wei'an during the seven-day holiday on the eleventh, and go to the place where Ye Wei'an once lived to investigate the clues between Ye Wei'an and Jing Wenyan back then.
The evening of D City in October was already a little cool, at this time the twilight was thick, a gust of wind was blowing, Cheng Xu couldn't help but shudder, he wrapped his windbreaker tightly, and walked quickly in the direction of home.
At the same time, Jing Wenyan and Naga Shima were drinking at the barbecue restaurant next to the school. At the beginning, the topic was mostly bland, and Na He asked while pouring wine for Jing Wenyan: "Teacher Wen Yan, how are you going to spend the eleventh and seventeenth day holiday?" ”
"My cousin is coming to D City to play, and I'll accompany my cousin." Jing Wenyan said with a smile, raised the wine glass in front of him, shook it at Na He, and took a sip, "What about Mr. He?" ”
"There's no special arrangement, it's probably just a casual stroll around D City, and it's a tour!" Naga said as she shoved a string of chicken skewers into her mouth.
Jing Wenyan smiled and said, "It's not been a year or two since Teacher He came to City D, and City D is not big, so I should have visited it a long time ago!" Want to revisit? ”
Naga shook his head, "There will always be some scenery in the corners of the city that is not easy to find. Teacher Wen Yan has been in D City for two years, has he visited D City? ”
Jing Wenyan was silent for a moment, drank all the wine in the cup in front of him, and said with a bit of astringency in his voice for a long time: "I've been in D City for more than two years. I grew up in D-City, and I've been to a lot of places in the city many years ago. ”
"Really? I've never heard of that! Naga said with a smile.
After three rounds of drinking, Jing Wenyan's cheeks were stained with two blushes, and his consciousness also became hazy, "By the way, Teacher He, why did you suddenly remember to ask me out today?" "Although the two of them are teachers in the same office and usually have a good relationship, it is the first time that they have come out to drink alone like this!
"There's something I'd like to confirm with you." Naga likes beer, but the amount of alcohol is very average, and at this time he is also a little drunk, and said lightly.
"What?" Jing Wenyan asked a little puzzled, "If you want to ask anything, just ask, why bother so much!" ”
"Ye Wei'an." Na He paused and spit out the name, "Teacher Wen Yan, you seem to care about Ye Wei'an in the second class." ”
At the mention of Ye Wei'an's name, Jing Wenyan picked up the hand of the toast and paused, chuckled and said, "Student." What does Mr. Nahe want to say? ”
"I didn't see you caring so much about other students." Na He shook his head and said, "Teacher Wen Yan, should you ...... or not" The remaining half of the sentence, Na He probably wanted to save some face for Jing Wenyan, and he didn't say it, but the meaning was already very obvious.
Jing Wenyan paused and laughed, "Then Teacher He, what are you guessing nonsense?" I did care a little more about that child than I did for the other students, but that was only because she was very much like a sister of mine, a distant relative. We used to play together, but then we rarely kept in touch! So when I saw her, I missed her a little. Jing Wenyan continued to drink, and answered Nahe's question half-truthfully.
"Really?" Naga still seemed a little uneasy.
"What did I lie to you." Jing Wenyan said with a smile.
"It's good if you don't have it. Teacher Wen Yan, I just want to remind you that you must remember your identity, you are a teacher! Naga said with some seriousness.
"Of course I do." Jing Wenyan said with a chuckle, as if he was laughing at Nahe's deliberate emphasis on such a natural thing. He ignored the fluctuation in his heart at that moment when Naga asked him just now!
At this time, Cheng Xu was rapidly tapping on the computer's keyboard. He knew that Su Wenxuan, a classmate, was a person who liked to record her life very much, and her computer kept a lot of photos of her family members organized by year. She said that the earliest photos were from when she was in elementary school, that is, more than ten years ago. Therefore, Cheng Xu judged that Su Wenxuan's computer must be able to find a photo of Jing Wenyan ten years ago.
So at this time, Cheng Xu hacked into Su Wenxuan's computer. Although Su Wenxuan's professional performance is not bad, girls are weaker than boys in practical operation after all, and Cheng Xu has specialized in hacking knowledge, so it is very easy for Cheng Xu to hack into Su Wenxuan's computer, and Su Wenxuan will not find out.
Sure enough, Cheng Xu easily found the folder where Su Wenxuan stored his photos, and found the photos of Jing Wenyan ten years ago. He used image processing software to separate Jing Wenyan from the group photo and began to print Jing Wenyan's photos. On the table next to the computer is a photo of Ye Wei'an ten years ago.
At this moment, Su Wenxuan, who was far away in S City, was busy packing her luggage, looking forward to her trip to D City, completely unaware that her computer was being invaded by her classmates.
The next day, Cheng Xu took the two photos he had prepared and went to the place where Ye Wei'an grew up. He didn't know the exact address of the place where Ye Wei'an lived in the past, but he only knew a general range based on Ye Wei'an's vague memory, and which elementary school Ye Wei'an attended before.
Cheng Xu originally thought that the information he had was very limited, and the two of them had lived here for a long time, so it might be quite difficult to investigate.
What he didn't expect was that his investigation process was very smooth, but he saw an old grandmother basking in the sun downstairs behind Ye Wei'an's previous elementary school, and walked over on a whim with a photo of the two people and asked, "Grandma, do you know these two people?" ”
After grandma looked at the photo in Cheng Xu's hand, her eyes lit up, and she smiled kindly and said, "I know, I know." It's Wen Yan and Xinran! It feels like they lived around here more than 10 years ago! By now, you're about the same age as the young man! You're the two of them......" The old woman looked at Cheng Xu with some hesitation and asked.
"Hmm...... I'm a friend of this girl. Cheng Xu paused, smiled lightly and said, "You know them very well!" ”
The old lady looked up at the sky and smiled kindly, "I can't say that I know very well!" It's just that I've lived here for more than 20 years, and those two children used to play around here, both of them were polite children, and they would say hello every time they saw me, and they knew each other after coming and going! At that time, Xin Ran was a student of this elementary school, and Wen Yan was in the high school opposite, which was C Middle School. Wen Yan said that their family runs a grocery store, and the store is located over there! The old grandmother said and pointed to a very corner place, "Xinran often goes to Wen Yan's store to buy things, and the age difference between the two is quite large, but the relationship is very good." ”
"That'...... And then? Listening to this old grandmother's story, Cheng Xu couldn't help but ask.
Later, Wen Yan's mother died, and he left City D and went to a relative's house in another province. It was also that year that Xinran's parents divorced, and her mother took her to move, and I never heard from them again! However, I heard from my neighbors that Xinran seemed to have fallen into the water once before moving out, and her life was hanging by a thread, but Wen Yan saved her. The old grandmother said as she recalled.
"That'...... How did Jing Wenyan's mother die? Accidental? Cheng Xu thought about it and asked, if Jing Wenyan's mother died unexpectedly, and this accident was related to Wei'an...... Aunt Ye's attitude makes sense!
"No, she died of cancer! Our neighbors even went to the hospital to see her! The old woman shook her head and said.
"Do you know if anything else happened to them before they moved out?" Cheng Xu then asked.
"This ...... I don't know! The old woman shook her head again and again.
"This ...... That's it! Sorry for your help! Cheng Xu said politely, but he was very unwilling in his heart, and finally felt that he was close to the truth, but in the end he still found nothing!
