CH.5 Guests

At half past six in the morning, the sun shone into the house, the alarm clock rang on time, and Gu Mengjia opened her eyes from her sleep. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, sat up from the bed, and stretched, and with a long "ahh

Gu Mengjia first went to the bathroom to take a shower, then began to brush her teeth and wash her face, and then made breakfast. She took out a steamed bun from the pantry and put it in the steamer to steam, and just as she was about to turn around and cut the meat, she suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out a bigger steamed bun and put it in the steamer to steam.

Then she started cutting the beef. Gu Mengjia took out a large piece of thawed beef from the refrigerator, she pressed the beef on the board, and aimed at the most tender and delicious part on it with a few knives.

Gu Mengjia took the plastic film to wrap the remaining meat and put it back in the freezer, then got up and went to the stove to fry the meat.

Tie an apron, turn the electric pot to the maximum heat, pour a circle of oil on the bottom of the pot, and throw two large pieces of cut beef into the pot, the electric pot immediately makes a sizzling sound, and soon the smell of meat spreads in the house.

Gu Mengjia turned the spatula in her hand, turned over the beef and continued to fry, after the beef in the pot was cooked, she poured a circle of soy sauce on it, sprinkled some pepper and salt to taste, and then fried it for a while with the seasoning, until the color of the beef turned brown, then turned off the heat and started the pot.

The water vapor of the steamer gradually decreases, and the fragrance of the wheat flour slowly spreads. Gu Mengjia opened the steaming lid, put the two steamed buns, one large and one small, on two plates, she used a knife to cut the steamed buns evenly in half, and brushed the steamed bread with mushroom sauce on the cut noodles of the steamed buns with a brush. Then she used chopsticks to pick up the fried beef and put it in the steamed bun, and clamped it firmly, so that the meat sandwich bun was ready.

Then she boiled two more eggs, made two small bowls of sugar tomatoes, and poured two glasses of milk each, and today's breakfast was finished.

Gu Mengjia took off her apron, set the two of their meals on the dining table, and then ran into Gu Yingjun's room to ask her father to get up and eat.

"Old man! Hurry up and get up and eat! Today's breakfast is beef bun with eggs and tomatoes! Enough milk tubes! ”

Gu Mengjia slapped Gu Yingjun's ass fiercely and shouted, but the father slept like a dead pig, and when he was beaten by her, he just turned over and continued to sleep, not only that, but he was still talking in his sleep vaguely-

"Woooooooooo......oo Liu Yanqing...... Thank you for making the steak for me...... It's delicious......"

"Get up! What steak? It's a meat bun! Not steak! Who eats this early in the morning! Gu Mengjia increased the strength of her hands.

"Ah...... Delicious...... Delicious...... Are there eggs? I like poached eggs the most......"

"There are eggs! But it's not poached eggs, it's hard-boiled eggs! Do you like to eat or not! Get me up first! Gu Mengjia began to get impatient.

"Uh...... What did you say? Well...... Good! I admit it! The food you cook is the best in the world! Hey hey...... Can you cook for me every day after that? ……”

"You think beautifully! As for the intensity of the officer's work, I estimate that she can't cook a few meals a year! If you only eat what she cooks, you'll starve to death sooner or later! Hurry up! Get up for me! Otherwise, you just wait to breathe in the immortal qi! ”

"I ...... I have something to say......" Gu Yingjun suddenly raised his hand softly.

"If there's a fart, let it go!"

"Iβ€”I swear...... Liu Yanqing...... No matter what, I will only eat what you have eaten and drink the water you have drunk...... I can't touch or look at anything that other girls make...... Hey, hey......"

Gu Yingjun waved his hand around while smiling, not realizing that the daughter on the side had already changed her face several times in the few seconds between his words, and a dangerous aura began to spread in the air.

Gu Mengjia sneered, she stopped waking up her father, pushed open the door, and strode towards the living room. She went to the table and drank the two glasses of milk that she had used to accompany her breakfast, then she put them down and turned to search the room for something.

She put away everything that came into contact with the liquidβ€”water, milk, all kinds of homemade juices, detergents, laundry detergents, etc.β€”and locked them in the kitchen cupboard, and she stuffed the keys into the pockets of her bibs, and then she closed the sluices and cut off all the faucets and pipes in the house.

When she was done, she picked out the spiciest bottle of chili sauce from the kitchen cruice and scooped up a whole spoonful of the chilli-red chili sauce with the largest spoon, then she picked up the big spoon with the chili sauce and gritted her teeth and walked towards her father's room.

Gu Yingjun on the bed was still intoxicated with the dream of dating Liu Yanqing, his body was twisted like a maggot, his face was drooling, thanks to him, Gu Yingjun's clothes and the mattress under him took no less than eight baths. At this time he slept like a happy dead pig, completely unaware that the devil was approaching him little by little.

With a loud "Da Lang, get up and drink the medicine", a round spoon was stuffed into his mouth, the spoon was so big that it propped up Gu Yingjun's cheeks.

Gu Mengjia repeatedly pounded the spoon in her father's mouth, flipping it up and down several times, until all the hot sauce was licked clean, and then she pulled the spoon out of Gu Yingjun's mouth and turned around and went into the kitchen.

Three seconds later, Gu Yingjun rushed out of the bedroom with a howl.

"Water!! Give me water!! I want to drink water!! It's so uncomfortable in my mouth!! It's spicy!! Where is the water?!! I'm in pain!! Ahhhhh!!h I'm going to die!! ”

Gu Yingjun fanned his swollen sausage-like mouth with his hand while shouting for water. He felt like someone had stuffed a handful of peppercorn-flavored popping candy in his mouth, his tongue tingled and his lips trembled with pain, and he rummaged around the house like a blind man looking for drinking water, but even if he turned the house upside down, he still couldn't find anything to drink.

At this time, Gu Mengjia was standing in the kitchen looking towards the living room, she put her left hand in her pocket, tightly held the key to the drink cabinet in her hand, and dangled her right hand outside. A relaxed, laid-back expression appeared on her face, as if none of this had anything to do with her.

Finally, when she saw her father walking to the toilet with a desperate face and was about to lift the toilet lid to have a good time, Gu Mengjia opened the cabinet with the key, took out a big bowl of cold mung bean soup and handed it to her father.

Gu Yingjun looked at his daughter gratefully, took the soup and drank it all, the pain in his mouth suddenly subsided a lot, and just when he thought that he would not use the toilet again, the chaotic sound from his stomach completely extinguished the spark of his thoughts.

Really, when you get up in the morning, you eat spicy food and drink ice, do you think your stomach is iron?

Gu Mengjia looked at the toilet that had been closed for more than half an hour, and thought contemptuously in her heart.

…………………………

"I'm full! Thank you for your hospitality! ”

Gu Yingjun put down the empty plate, touched his bulging abdomen, and let out a comfortable sigh.

"Old man, don't be in a hurry to enjoy it, don't forget that we still have medical compensation to pay." Gu Mengjia reminded while cleaning up the plates.

"Well, I know this, I told Officer Liu yesterday, she said that she would go back in the evening to help us get the household registration, so that I can go to the city to find a job today, and I will try to find a job today, so that the matter of compensation will be easy to talk about - by the way, Xiaomeng, how are you doing with self-study?"

"Huh? You say, studying? I've read all the books at home, and I don't know how well I'm learning, so why are you suddenly asking this? ”

"That's right, Officer Liu Yanqing said that August 25 is the date of the entrance examination for major primary and secondary schools, and she said that you must go to school for education as a child, and said that our family situation is completely free to enroll, so I was thinking ......"

"Old man, you want me to go to school, right? Got it, got it! But if I'm gone, who will do the farm work at home? ”

"It's easy to say, I will find a job as soon as possible, and then pay enough salary to the boss in advance to buy a housekeeping robot, and then leave all the farm work and housework to it, and you can concentrate on studying."

"At 9 o'clock this morning, Officer Liu will bring two staff members from the Ministry of Education to your home to assess your study, you had better take out all the books at home and review them, and let the rest be!

"Oh yes, there is a piece of paper on the table in my bedroom, there are some things written on it, you will remember to read it later, and remember to do some things, please trouble you Ha Xiaomeng!"

Gu Yingjun said as he stood up and packed his things, preparing to leave for the city.

"Okay, old man, I know, you can go with peace of mind, just leave the affairs of the family to me, I will answer the questions seriously, you just concentrate on finding a job."

"Then I'm relieved! I'm leaving! I'll definitely be back in the evening with good news! I wish you a good school soon! ”

Gu Yingjun finished smiling, tidied up his clothes, then he put on his backpack, waved at his daughter, opened the door and walked towards the depths of the forest.

…………………………

A black-and-white flying police car swept over the forest and sped towards the cabin. There were three people sitting in the car, they were the driver Officer Liu Yanqing and the Ministry of Education staff Ling Mo and Ling Bing, these two people are a pair of brothers and sisters, they are wearing professional formal clothes, they look very young, and they feel that they have just started their careers.

"It's beautiful, it's been a long time since I've seen such a beautiful natural scenery." Ling Bing, who was sitting on the right side of the back seat of the car, looked at the beautiful natural scenery outside the window and sighed.

"Xiaoice, don't rush to see the scenery, have you brought all the things you should bring?" Brother Ling Mo asked.

"Well, don't worry, it's all ready, it's all here." Ling Bing patted the small suitcase beside him.

"It's really hard for you, it's not easy for educators to go out to work on such a hot day." Liu Yanqing smiled apologetically.

"Where, for the sake of the children, no matter how hard and tired it is, it should be, this is our job, you don't need to be polite."

"Well, let me tell you in advance, the child you are going to assess today is not ordinary, her name is Gu Mengjia, she is 13 years old this year, she lost her mother at a young age, and her only father Gu Yingjun left home and walked to the city when she was 3 years old, and she only came back a few days ago.

In other words, this child's childhood was almost without her parents, her father did not come back to see her once in ten years, and he spent all his savings. She lives alone outside the city, without any friends, and is more rebellious and withdrawn in character, remember to be as gentle as possible when you see her, talk to her more about life, and enlighten her. ”

"Okay, we got it. In fact, we have seen this kind of child before, but his family background is much better than that of the little girl, so the communication is relatively smooth. This type of child is generally soft and not hard, strong on the surface but very fragile inside, we just need to comfort and encourage this, after all, there is no child who does not like to be praised by others. ”

"Then please please, you are professionals, and you must know better than me in educating children, and I won't say much about the rest."

The three of them ended the conversation and began to get busy in the car. Ling Mo and Ling Bing checked the assessment papers and study materials, and by the way, they thought about what they should say to the children later, while Liu Yanqing was driving, thinking anxiously in her heart about how Gu Mengjia would face them, whether to lock the door directly and prevent them from entering or let them in, but they treated them coldly.

She had already inspected the terrain near the house yesterday, and knew that there was an open space next to the house that could be used for parking, so they would park the car next to it and knock on the door directly to enter, but what happened after entering it would depend on Gu Mengjia's performance, which was what she was most worried about.

It turned out that Liu Yanqing was too worried, and when the three of them knocked on the door, they were greeted by Gu Mengjia with a smile on her face and a whole table of snacks and snacks, saying hello, shaking hands, giving up your seat, and pouring tea...... The little guy's hospitality etiquette standards couldn't be more standard, thinking back to what he said just now and combining with the scene in front of him, Liu Yanqing's trust value in the hearts of the brothers and sisters suddenly dropped to zero, and she herself didn't know whether to be embarrassed or happy for a while.

After a few words of greeting, the brother and sister began to ask Gu Mengjia questions about Xi, while Liu Yanqing watched nervously from the side.

As she expected, Gu Mengjia's study was not very good, and many questions were just roughly answered, but Xiaomeng's voice was loud and fluent when answering questions, and even if she answered incorrectly, she still had a confident expression, which left a good impression on the brother and sister.

Then came the written test. The brother and sister took out the test papers and stationery that had been prepared for Gu Mengjia to test, while Liu Yanqing moved the chair to the balcony and sat down, trying not to disturb them.

Time passed minute by minute, the exam ended quickly, Gu Mengjia's overall performance in the test was not very good, her draft was messy, but she skipped directly without reading the questions of more than three sentences, after a few exams, Gu Mengjia almost every test paper was empty, almost 1/4 of the questions were empty, and the language test was even handed in directly without writing the composition, and she truly achieved equal treatment and equality in the subject.

After Gu Mengjia finished all the test papers, she stood aside to play, the brother and sister picked up the pen to mark the papers on the spot, and Liu Yanqing opened the floor door to the balcony to talk to her colleagues, and after a minute, Liu Yanqing's explosive roar came from the balcony-

"Xiao Chen!! What did you say?! You repeat!! That patient died?! It's really dead?!! ”

"Yes! It's really Captain! The autopsy report is out! He is indeed dead! And it was poisoned! ”

"Immediately go investigate the nurse on duty at the hospital that night!! Dig three feet into the ground and find this person for me!! ”

"Checked! I've checked it all! But there was no such nurse in the hospital! The nurse who poisoned her may have been pretended to be an outsider! An outsider has broken into the hospital! It is likely that it is the perpetrator! ”

"Why is this happening at this time!! The only eyewitness died!! The cameras around the scene of the crime are broken again!! What should I do!! Reporters and the top brass were staring at the case, but the man died!! Or was he poisoned!! What do the security guards at the hospital do!! No wonder Gu Yingjun slipped in so easily!! ”

Liu Yanqing roared and hung up the phone, standing on the balcony sulking, completely unaware that Gu Mengjia had already slipped into the balcony unconsciously and hid behind her and listened to all the conversations, until she was startled by a certain hand on the shoulder.

"Sister Liu, if you speak softly, our glass is not shockproof." Gu Mengjia muttered with her fingers turning her ears.

"What's wrong? Is the exam over? How's it going? Liu Yanqing asked.

"It doesn't feel good, I guess I didn't do well in the exam, and the teachers are still revising the papers," Gu Mengjia yawned as she said, "33 seconds have arrived, Sister Liu Yanqing, your anger has disappeared, right?" ”

"How do you know my name is Liu Yanqing? And how do you know the 33-second rule? ”

"Daddy's note says this, but I'm really wondering why you got so angry just now?"

"It has something to do with my job, just yesterday morning, someone attacked the government office building with a bomb, only one person survived the accident, we were going to wait for him to recover from his injuries and ask him about the situation, but we didn't expect him to be poisoned by an intruder in the early hours of this morning.

"Because the surveillance network near the crime site was destroyed, we don't have any clues about this matter at all, and I just got angry because of this anger.

"Just now I received another message on my mobile phone, saying that because the impact of the case is too big and there are no clues at present, the bureau has issued a high reward, useful information is 2000 Internet, if the perpetrator is caught, 1 million Internet will be rewarded on the spot."

"Bounty?" Gu Mengjia narrowed her eyes, "Is a piece of information worth 2,000 Internet?" Can it be higher? ”

"No, and it has to be useful information, and if you give it indiscriminately, you will be fined."

"Okay, 2000 is 2000, and a penny is money." Gu Mengjia nodded.

Liu Yanqing sensed that there was something in her words, and she suddenly remembered: The time of yesterday's bombing was around two o'clock in the morning, and the time when Gu Mengjia and the five idle people in society clashed was also about two o'clock in the morning, which means that at the time of the fight or after the fight, Gu Mengjia may have really seen something about the explosion!

Thinking of this, she quickly took out a voice recorder from her pocket and asked Gu Mengjia, "Xiaomeng, did you see anything at the time of the crime?" Want to talk to me? ”

Gu Mengjia spread her arms and casually rested on the balcony railing, she leaned her head back, stood diagonally, half-closed her eyes, and slowly said-

"Well, yes, I did see a guy yesterday, a very strange person......"
