Volume II, Chapter 6, The Secret of Sixteen Years

"Can you start with your name?" Gao Zhengnan sat back in his chair.

Zhang Wu opened his mouth, but his voice still couldn't be revealed.

Gao Zhengnan nodded and said, "Give you paper and pen, I ask you to write it, is it okay?"

Zhang Wu was stunned, and he nodded.

Gao Zhengnan pulled out a stool and walked out, Zhou Haiming was already waiting there at the door with a signature pen and a few pieces of white paper, and he gestured to the room. Gao Zhengnan also smiled and nodded, in fact, as soon as he entered the room, Gao Zhengnan had already found that there were two cameras in this room.

Gao Zhengnan placed the partition on the simple hospital bed and used it as a table for Zhang Wu to use. Zhang Wu watched him do all this quietly from the sidelines, and there were no extra tables in the room. This is the best writing desk.

Zhang Wu stood up slowly, and landed on his left leg to owe Gao Zhengnan a debt, which was regarded as a thank you.

He sat back on his hospital bed, picked up his pen and drew quickly, his hand fast and fierce. In just two minutes, the picture reappeared in front of Gao Zhengnan's eyes, exactly the same as the photo on his mobile phone.

Zhang Wu's pen power is very strong, the muscles on his face are tense, and it seems that he may scream at any time.

He finished his final strokes and exhaled a long breath, as if he had completed some difficult ritual.

Gao Zhengnan sat on the side and watched him slowly calm down, and said softly, "How long have you been painting this painting?"

Zhang Wu's gaze kept falling on the paper, and after a while, he wrote on another piece of paper with a pen: "16 years." ”

The handwriting is crooked, but legible.

Gao Zhengnan said with deep feelings: "Do you only paint this one in sixteen years?"

Zhang Wu nodded.

Gao Zhengnan leaned back in the chair and said, "How old were you at that time?"

Zhang Wu turned his gaze to him, and then turned back and wrote: "9. ”

Gao Zhengnan then asked, "You, 9 years old. ”

Zhang Wu nodded, and his gaze returned to the picture.

Gao Zhengnan stood up, half-bent over, pointed to the picture and said, "Do you know the person on this?"

Zhang Wu nodded.

Gao Zhengnan boldly said his guess: "Is this child you?" He was referring to the boy who pounced on the woman in the painting.

Zhang Wu raised his head and looked at him, he didn't move for a long time, his lips kept shaking, and finally spit out two words: "It's me." ”

Gao Zhengnan immediately said: "You killed this woman?"

Zhang Wu was so frightened that he clenched the pen in his hand: "No!" His eyes were red, his neck was straight, and his eyes roared in despair: "My mother was killed by them!"

The pen in his hand was broken in two, and his whole body trembled. Gao Zhengnan bent down and comforted softly: "I know, you endured it very hard, now it's okay, just say it, everything will be fine." ”

Zhang Wu's mouth kept repeating: "Mom is dead, Mom is dead......"

The door was opened, Zhou Haiming came in with two people in white coats, Gao Zhengnan took a step back, watched them inject Zhang Wu with sedatives, broke his hand, and took the bloody pen.

Zhou Haiming patted Gao Zhengnan's shoulder and said, "I can only go here today, his mood has been very unstable recently." ”

Walking outside the ward, Gao Zhengnan said bitterly: "What kind of person can kill his mother in front of the child so brutally?"

Zhou Haiming looked at the national emblem at the end of the corridor and sighed: "Evil always happens in invisible places, but no matter how long it takes, it will eventually be exposed to the world." ”

When Gao Zhengnan left the supervision hospital, he politely refused Zhou Haiming's offer to send him back to the base, and he asked Zhou Haiming for the picture drawn by Zhang Wu. Zhou Haiming readily agreed, because they already had a copy of the same painting.

Gao Zhengnan looked at the painting in his hand, which was stained with Zhang Wu's blood.

The taxi driver asked him, "Where is the gentleman going?"

He replied casually: "Qinghu subway entrance." After speaking, he folded Zhang Wu's painting and put it in the pocket of his jacket, only to realize that he actually wanted to go to the Sanwang flower shop.

No matter how much suffering has happened, life still has to move on. As soon as the taxi driver handed the invoice to Gao Zhengnan, a man with a backpack hurriedly got on the bus and shouted, "Mission Hills." ”

Gao Zhengnan stood at Exit C, looking at the signboard of the Sanwang Flower Shop, the two glass doors were open, and Sanwang was carrying a pot of jasmine to the outside of the store, and as soon as she looked up, she saw Gao Zhengnan standing across the street.

Through the traffic and the constant crowd, Gao Zhengnan's eyes are full of doubts, this flower shop is hidden in the middle of these high-rise buildings is not inconspicuous at all, this girl wears a black-framed glasses, her long hair and waist are scattered behind her, a triangular scarf is fixed on her head, and her appearance without makeup looks weak, which is really not at all compatible with the capable woman in black on the subway. The long-handled black umbrella seems to be their common feature, but as Sanwang said, in a city like the south, the unexpected typhoon is too strong, and a good umbrella is always needed.

The dog jumped out at some point and suddenly yelled "Wang".

Sanwang nodded slightly at Gao Zhengnan, and entered the store after placing the jasmine.

When Gao Zhengnan walked into the flower shop, Sanwang was casually wiping the flower stand. He could see that she was uncomfortable, and seemed to be deliberately avoiding his gaze. This made him feel very surprised, could she really have anything to do with the subway incident?

"My tulips are about to bloom. Gao Zhengnan broke the dullness in the air.

"Well, it looks like you're doing well. There was a moment of hesitation in the movement of Sanwang's hand, she wasn't quite sure what she had just seen. She saw a little boy wearing a placket on Gao Zhengnan's body, she couldn't see his past before, and she didn't know why she suddenly saw his past today. She has seen countless reincarnations of life and death, past and present lives, and at this moment, she is unwilling to pay attention to this man's past.

"Now the outermost color has been revealed, it should be a black tulip!" Gao Zhengnan said a little proudly.

Sanwang stopped the movement in her hand, she remembered that the twin flowers crossed the golden light to Gao Zhengnan last night, is it because of this that she can see his past?

"That's great. It's really what you wanted!" Sanwang took a deep breath as he pretended to be calm.

"This flower has brought me good luck, and I feel that as soon as it comes to life, I myself come back to life. Gao Zhengnan stretched his arms and said lightly.

Sanfu didn't answer, she remembered the situation last night when Black Tulip used the golden light woman to spell Gao Zhengnan's bones. In the shadows, an unaware slight opening appeared at the corner of her mouth, half of the twin flowers were golden, and the other half was dark blue from hell. It brings life, but it can also attract the breath of death, doesn't what happened to Gao Zhengnan in the subway passage that night prove it?

She didn't turn around, and said lightly: "Mr. Gao, if you don't mind, can you return this flower to the shop?"

Gao Zhengnan said in surprise: "How can you regret the two pieces of silver." ”

Sanwang was still facing away from him, and the rag in his hand had been neatly folded and placed on one side. She held a small shovel in her hand and loosened a pot of fleshy soil, and said, "There is such a pot of black tulips in the shop, if Mr. Gao needs other tulips, he can choose at will." ”

Gao Zhengnan sat down on a wooden chair next to him and said, "I only like that pot." ”

Sanwang stopped what he was doing, returned to the back of the cabinet, lowered his head, and tried not to look at Gao Zhengnan's face.

Gao Zhengnan said with a smile: "You can also cultivate another pot of the same flower, it's not difficult!"

Sanwang raised his head, it was really like a flower that had been watered for nine hundred and ninety-nine days, was it really so easy to cultivate?

Just as she and Gao Zhengnan's eyes were about to meet, there was a noise in the drawer under the cabinet. The flying dog immediately ran over, its tail standing upright, like a pointer to an early warning message.

Sanwang opened the drawer, and it turned out to be a white folding fan that almost jumped out of the drawer. Behind the cabinet, Sanwang stretched out his right hand and the dark night light shrouded the white folding fan, the fan tossed a few times, gave up the struggle, and after a trace of white smoke drifted away, it finally quieted down.

Sanwang said apologetically in a low voice: "There is a mouse, I'm really sorry!"

Gao Zhengnan knew that what she said was not the truth, and pretended to be surprised and said, "There are rats in such a clean shop?"

Sanwang's face couldn't help but be slightly hot, lying was indeed not her strong point. She couldn't predict why the ghost of this female ghost was moving now, could it be because of Gao Zhengnan? Could it be that the incident of sixteen years ago was related to Gao Zhengnan?

The black cat jumped out of nowhere, pounced on Gao Zhengnan, and meowed, causing Gao Zhengnan to shrink into the chair in fright. The eyes of the black cat are golden yellow, the other is blue, and there is a black line in the center of the eyeball, which is reflecting Gao Zhengnan's face, and the shaved off half of the ear makes it look very weird.

"Where did this cat come from?" Gao Zhengnan said in surprise.

"Maybe it's a stray cat! I only saw it in the past two days. Sanwang patted Feige's head to signal it to calm down, so don't worry too much.

"It looks weird and scary. Gao Zhengnan did not hide his disgust for this cat.

The black cat seemed to understand his words, and meowed again, and the voice was very sharp and harsh.

Gao Zhengnan was about to prop his body out of the wooden chair, but Sanwang came over and took the cat from him, and inadvertently touched Gao Zhengnan's wrist. At that moment, a clear little boy's voice appeared in Sanwang's ears: "Wenxi! Come here, come! Don't be afraid, jump over." ”

Her hands trembled, and the name shook her heart like a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

If it weren't for the fear of being too rude in front of Gao Zhengnan, she would almost fall to the ground. Phineas hurried over to her, feeling its furry warmth before she came to her senses.

"I'm so sorry, this cat hasn't been vaccinated yet, I want to take it to the epidemic prevention center now, don't you mind!"

Gao Zhengnan didn't expect that he would be scared by this cat at all, but he didn't expect that the female shopkeeper would close the door in broad daylight in order to vaccinate a stray cat. But he really had no reason to object, because Sanwang had already walked outside the store door, took out the key and waited for him, and this way of sending off customers made Gao Zhengnan a little annoyed.

Was it because he didn't want to give her back the pot of black tulips?
