Zhong Chengfu is more calm and rational than the flustered Shi Juan. He always thought that his mother Shi Juan was just involved in a simple accident. No matter how many people died in the Wu family, what was dirty in it had nothing to do with Shi Juan. How long has she been a nanny for the Wu family? is not the kind of old housekeeper in TV series, who can know the secrets of the master's family. I'm afraid she didn't even figure out how many people there were in the Wu family, and something happened to the Wu family. What does the whole thing have to do with her?

After entering the police station, he found the police who handled the case and explained his intentions, and Zhong Chengfu really heard the expected answer.

“…… Oh, it's okay to leave. Are you her son? You can take her home. She hadn't contacted her family before...... Then I'll register you in a while and leave a contact information. If the circumstances of the case warrant it, we will contact you again. There should be no problem, just in case. At that time, I may have to trouble you to make a trip. That's no problem, right? ”

"Of course, of course." Zhong Chengfu agreed.

Zhong Chengfu felt that the police in charge of serious crimes were not much different from the police officers in their community police station, and they were also kind and friendly. With this attitude, it can also prove that Shi Juan is an insignificant little person in this case.

Zhong Chengfu turned his head to Shi Juan and said, "Look, I'll just say that it's nothing wrong with you." You've been staying here, and the police comrades have to help book a hotel and take care of you. You're causing trouble for others. ”

Shi Juan nodded in a trance, her expression relaxed. She didn't expect it to end so easily. It seems that what her son said was right, she thought too much about it before. It's none of her business.

At this point, there was a pause in my thoughts.

Shi Juan's mind came back to what happened on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Her relaxed expression tensed again.

Zhong Chengfu didn't notice this.

The policeman who entered the back office walked out again and beckoned Zhong Chengfu to follow, "Shi Juan, you can sit outside for a while." Ask your son to come in and fill out the information. We can't get that many people into our office. ”

Shi Juan came back to her senses.

Zhong Chengfu stood up and pressed Shi Juan's shoulder, telling her to stop getting up, "You wait here for a while, I'll fill in the information." ”

Shi Juan watched her son's back disappear behind the partition door in the corridor, and the footsteps could not be heard.

Zhong Chengfu didn't have any suspicion at all, but he didn't expect that as soon as the partition door separating the inside and outside of the police station was closed, the policeman who led the way asked solemnly: "Young man, how much do you know about your mother?" ”

Zhong Chengfu was a little stunned.

When we asked, she had been working outside and only returned to her hometown during the Chinese New Year. You and your dad stay in your hometown all the time, right? Do you usually contact her a lot? The policeman asked.

Zhong Chengfu's heart lifted, "We are often in touch." After my daughter was born, my mother helped with the child for half a year. After that, she came out to work again, and every day she would video with us and talk to my daughter. Is there something wrong? ”

"Oh, yes, this, she said it herself when we asked your mother. She may have been nervous, or she may have been influenced by the victim's family. The policeman led Zhong Chengfu into a separate reception room, invited him to sit down, and poured water for him, "Don't worry, I'll tell you slowly." It's not a big deal, and your mother didn't commit a crime. ”

"Well, you say." Zhong Chengfu held the disposable paper cup, still nervous.

"The one she works for now, oh, 'before'...... It's the family's situation, do you know? The policeman asked rhetorically.

Zhong Chengfu shook his head and nodded again, "I heard one of my mother's fellow countrymen say it." She told the fellow, but she didn't tell us. I only know that her company assigned her a job, and that employer was a junior...... Later, she was hired by the man who took care of the mistress to take care of the mistress. There is also a junior pregnancy or something. After he finished speaking, he lowered his head a little unnaturally.

He always said "little three" or "little three" to the people's police...... Zhong Chengfu only felt that what he said was embarrassing, and he was probably the same as Aunt Xiaoshun gossiping about their house just now.

"That's pretty much it. The Ma Jiayi she took care of was not in good spirits before her death, and may have some mental problems, prenatal depression and the like, and is receiving treatment. Wu Jingwei, who has an improper relationship with Ma Jiayi, doesn't care much about her. During that time, your mother was alone in the hospital taking care of Ma Jiayi. The hospital was a private hospital, Ma Jiayi lived in a single room, there were few patients on the first floor, and the number of doctors, nurses, and nurses was also very small. So during that time, your mother was with a mentally ill person who spent all the time with her, taking care of her, and no one else around could talk. Looks like she didn't tell you either. The police officer said.

Zhong Chengfu was stunned.

"Your mom may have been affected a little bit. There is another one, that is, the Wu Jingwei who hired your mother to take care of Ma Jiayi, his family likes to engage in some feudal superstitious activities, and he believes in this set very much. There are a lot of elderly people living in the nursing home next to the hospital. Old man, you know. The overall environment is not very good. The policeman continued, "This information about the case should not have been told to you. However, your mother should know about it, so I won't hide it from you, and I'm afraid that after you take your mother back, she won't tell you anything, and your family members don't know about these situations. ”

Zhong Chengfu was a little dizzy, he thought of the gossip on the Internet, and couldn't help but ask anxiously: "You mean, you mean, my mother, joined the cult?" ”

"Of course not. If she wants to participate, I won't talk to you so calmly now, and we won't let your mother live in that hotel, and we won't restrict her much, right? The policeman smiled, "Don't be nervous. I'm just going to tell you. Because when your mother answered our questions, some of her words were illogical. She felt that she had hit an evil spirit and seen a ghost, and she believed very much that Ma Jiayi and Wu Jingwei's family had encountered these things, all of which were against ghosts. She didn't participate in those cult activities, but it was possible that she had been with those people for a long time and was affected. ”

Zhong Chengfu's heart sank.

"As a family member, you should care more about her. It's not easy for her to work outside the home alone. This kind of housekeeping, you don't know what kind of family you meet. The policeman changed his tone and asked, "Did your mother believe this before?" Some people believe in this, but it doesn't affect their lives, and if they don't join that kind of cult, that's nothing. ”

Zhong Chengfu nodded heavily, "She used to be a little particular...... I've said before that my deceased grandmother came home to see that. That's it. She didn't participate in any of those organizations, and she didn't go to the temple. ”

"Well, that's nothing. Maybe it's because I've been with Ma Jiayi for a long time. Ma Jiayi has some mental problems. Your mother is also not a professional caretaker and has never cared for a mentally ill person before. The policeman stood up and patted Zhong Chengfu on the shoulder, "You guys as family members enlighten her well." She was also frightened by this incident, so she should be fine. But be careful. Some people fall into this kind of thing, it is an opportunity, that is, they encounter an accident in life, and they can't resolve it, so they turn to those things. Life is a little fuller, according to what you said, she used to help bring your daughter, and the old lady took her little granddaughter, just be happy. ”

After saying this, he smiled, "Alright, alright, don't be nervous. Don't put pressure on her. She needs the support of your family. Don't blame her. She wasn't to blame for that. Fill in the contact information of your hometown. I'll leave you a phone number, so you can call us if you want anything. ”

Zhong Chengfu couldn't help but be nervous, he only felt a heavy weight on his shoulders.

He followed the police to the office, left his contact information, and then followed the police through the corridor, the partition door, and back to the reception room in the antechamber.

The policeman smiled at Shi Juan, explained a few ordinary words, and signaled that they could go.

Shi Juan looked at Zhong Chengfu and asked, "Why did you go for so long?" ”

"It's winding inside." Zhong Cheng replied vaguely and perfunctorily.

Shi Juan didn't doubt it, but just asked, "Can we go back?" ”

"yes. It's too late today, stay at the guesthouse for one night and I'll see when the plane will be tomorrow. ”

"The plane is too expensive...... Shi Juan said habitually.

"I said that it's off-season, and the ticket is very cheap." Zhong Chengfu also gave the same answer, but this time his tone was more blunt.

Shi Juan sneered, "Oh, that's it." ”

Zhong Chengfu sighed and changed his attitude, "Don't worry about this. You've made enough money in the last few years. I work well, your daughter-in-law works well, and the family is not without income or money. As he spoke, he suddenly said, "I see that when you go back this time, don't go out to be a babysitter." As I told you before, we want to have another child. You help bring the cats, and then the small ones. Two children, it's enough for you to be busy. ”

The last time the two talked about this topic, they were both in a happy mood.

Shi Juan also took the initiative to say that she wanted to help take care of the children, and said to her daughter-in-law in a nagging voice: "...... You ask the confinement lady and the mother-in-law to help outside, it's better for me to come. There was nothing to be polite about the family. The last time I brought a cat, wasn't it good? Just like last time, don't spend this unjust money. It's good for the mother-in-law to come and take a hand when she is free. Doesn't she have to take care of your grandmother over there? With so many people crowded into the house, you and your children are not well rested. I'm enough for one person. Don't bother me, we'll be a family when you get married. Don't be polite to me.

The daughter-in-law is a gentle and shy person, she has been married for so many years, her daughter is so old, and she is a little embarrassed to trouble her mother-in-law Shi Juan, "...... Isn't that going to delay your work again? The last time you took the cat with you, you quit your job, and when you go back, you start from scratch. ”

"It's nothing. I've been a babysitter for so many years and it's fine. I'm still running in turns every day, it's not fixed, and if I don't do it, I won't do it......"

Those conversations are still in my ears, and now that Zhong Chengfu has put forward this idea again, Shi Juan's state of mind is completely different.

She was a little gloomy, her fingers tugging at the hem of her clothes, as if she had come out of her hometown for the first time many years ago, looking for a job in a strange city, feeling inferior and uneasy. When you meet someone, you can't say a word, and it's impossible to sell yourself eloquently.

She didn't speak, she couldn't object to her son's proposal, and she couldn't agree as happily as before.

Zhong Chengfu didn't think about it so much, he just felt that his arrangement was very good. At the moment, he was thinking about correcting Shi Juan's thoughts, and he was afraid that Shi Juan would go astray.

He talked endlessly, and when he arrived at the door of the hotel, he noticed that Shi Juan did not follow again.

Zhong Chengfu looked back and saw Shi Juan hesitating at the door of the hotel.

Zhong Chengfu subconsciously thought that they had bumped into Ma Jiayi's parents again. He turned his head and looked at the front desk and stairs of the hotel, but did not find Ma Jiayi's parents, so he withdrew his gaze.

He looked at Shi Juan again, and when he wanted to speak, he found that Shi Juan was staring at the front desk of the hotel.

Someone walked past Zhong Chengfu.

Zhong Chengfu saw that they were two strangers. The two of them had just stood at the front desk, as if asking what the front desk was doing.

"Who are you?" Zhong Chengfu saw that they were heading towards Shi Juan, and hurriedly stopped them.

Shi Juan stiffened her body, looked at Zhong Chengfu who was blocking in front, and subconsciously grabbed his arm.

A man and a woman in a suit are all dressed as elites in the workplace, which is incompatible with the environment of this small hotel.

The woman glanced at Zhong Chengfu, ignored it, and said directly to Shi Juan: "Shi Juan, Mr. Wu's memorial service has been decided to be held at noon tomorrow." We'll pick you up tomorrow at noon. ”

"What are you talking about? Who the hell are you? Zhong Chengfu asked nervously and dissatisfiedly.

Shi Juan whispered: "They are from Mr. Wu's son-in-law's family and daughter-in-law's family. ”

The woman tugged at the corners of her mouth, "This is ......"

"I'm her son. My mom and I will go back to our hometown tomorrow, and we won't go to the memorial service. Zhong Chengfu said.

"Tomorrow's memorial service is important. My boss wanted Shi Juan to be there. The woman said.

The man also followed, "Mr. Chen also means the same thing." Not only you, Ma Jiayi's parents, but also the Master Niu and Master Li invited by Mr. Wu before will also be present. ”

Shi Juan immediately tightened her fingers and grabbed Zhong Chengfu's arm, and the weight of her body pressed on Zhong Chengfu.

Zhong Chengfu was already unhappy when he heard "Ma Jiayi's parents", and he was even more bored when he heard any "master", "I said, my mother won't go." ”

"It's not up to you." The woman sneered, "Shi Juan accepted Mr. Wu's employment, but he signed the contract at that time. Ma Jiayi died under her care, and Mr. Wu's family also suffered, do you think you don't need to be in charge? ”

"Isn't that something that the police are in charge of? The police said it had nothing to do with my mom! ”

"Is that a criminal matter, or is it a civil liability? As Mr. Wu's heir, my boss has the right to sue Shi Juan. It is difficult to say how much compensation will be paid at that time. How much money can your family come up with? The woman said disdainfully.

"Mr. Chen also has the same opinion." The man added, "Just ask you to come to the memorial service." How can you say that you were also hired by Mr. Wu and took care of Ma Jiayi during the last period of her life, right? Mr. Wu's salary for you is not low. You took all the money, and something happened to the master's family, so you just ran away, okay? Besides, so many people have had an accident, do you think you can escape? ”

Zhong Chengfu didn't eat this, and was even more annoyed by the threat of the two.

Shi Juan was scared. She thought again of the demons dancing on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the news of death that she kept hearing afterwards.

She grabbed Zhong Chengfu and hurriedly said, "I know, I'll go, I'll go!" ”

"Mom!" Zhong Chengfu was in a hurry.

"Then tomorrow we will send a car to pick you up. Do not try to escape. You can't escape from this, and it's useless to flee to the ends of the earth. ”

"I'll call the police right now and see if it works!" Zhong Chengfu said angrily.

The woman still sneered, while the man ignored Zhong Chengfu, nodded to Shi Juan, bypassed the two and left.

Zhong Chengfu watched the two of them get on the two cars parked on the side of the road proudly, the cars drove away, and he was even more angry, but Shi Juan kept holding on to him and didn't let him leave.

"I'm going to buy a ticket! Mom, ignore them! Zhong Chengfu said.

"Let's go for a trip. You don't understand...... O Fu, let us not offend them. Mr. Wu is very rich, and, and ......," Shi Juan said hastily.

"He has a lot of money, and he can do whatever he wants?" Zhong Chengfu subconsciously said this, and when he came back to his senses, his heart rose.

"It's not just money, but also the master they say, that Master Li, is a person with real skills." Shi Juan said seriously.

"Mom-" Zhong Chengfu worried.

"Let's go to the memorial service. They have a point, too. I always took other people's money and didn't do a good job for others...... Even if the neighbor dies, don't you have to go to a stick of incense? Always go to kowtow, put incense on the pillar, and ask for peace of mind. As Shi Juan spoke, her emotions sank in, and her tone became more and more firm, "And Miss Ma...... Miss Ma ......" she said, looking at the stairs and then at the ceiling.

She seemed to be able to see the rickety figure of Ma Jiayi's parents huddled in a small room in the hotel crying silently.

She has never officially greeted Ma Jiayi's parents. She hung up the phone......

When Shi Juan thought of this, her emotions sank completely.

"Miss Ma, I should also burn some paper and stick incense...... After all, I took care of her for those days...... In the end I ran away, leaving her alone and her alone......"

…… With those ghosts......

Shi Juan shuddered, only to feel that her heart was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.
