Chapter 157: The Return
After hesitating, Ji Si'an carefully put away the cloth bag, hurriedly left the old house, and hurried towards Chenghuang.
On the way home again, her heart was not as relaxed as before, and the clues about the ticket made her sleepless.
Obviously looking forward to solving the case and the truth, why is he so irritated by this clue? In fact, Ji Si Anxin already had a speculation, but she didn't want to think about it deeply.
When he returned to Chenghuang, it was already night, and Ji Si'an did not go home, but came directly to the criminal police team.
"You're not well, you should go home and rest first." Yuan Mu's face was still pale, but Ji Si'an came down.
"Why are you at work again? You deserve a good rest. Why do I think you're skinny again? Ji Si'an didn't expect that it was Yuan Mu who came out to receive her.
"I'm all right."
"It's so boring to stay at home, so it's better to go to work. Do what you can and be grounded. ”
Yuan Mu smiled like a flower, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Ji Si'an hesitated for a long time and took out the cloth bag. "I'm in my grandmother's old house...... Found this. ”
Yuan Mu was about to take the cloth bag she handed over, but suddenly put his hand back. "You wait for me to get a glove......"
After putting on the gloves, Yuan Mu took out the pieces of paper inside. "Train tickets? Or the ...... on the day of the crime"
"You suspect it's the murderer's ......"
Before Yuan Mu's words were finished, Ji Si'an's eyes were already moist. Normal people would have this inference...... Her luck in self-deception was ruthlessly shattered.
"Grandma knew that when I was a kid, I used to look through her red lacquered wooden box, which ...... I think she left me ......"
Ji Si'an's tears fell widely, she hurriedly swept her cheeks with her fingers, and raised her head so that the next tears would not fall.
Speaking of this, Yuan Mu already understood what Ji Si'an wanted to express.
"I'll give it to the master right away."
Before leaving the office, Yuan Mu stopped and turned back to Ji Si'an and said, "The laboratory department is off work at this time. The fastest result is also tomorrow. You wait here for me, and I'll take you home in a moment. ”
"No, I'll go back by myself. You're not well, go home early. ”
Since handing over the cloth bag, Ji Si'an seemed to drain all his strength.
Yuan Mu had something to say. Ji Si'an had patted her on the shoulder to say goodbye. "I want to be alone and quietly......"
Coming out of the criminal police team, Ji Si'an took a taxi, but it was not in the direction of the Huayuan community. She asked the driver to take her to the somewhat barren dirt mountain.
When the driver saw her depressed appearance, he thought that she was going to commit suicide several times and tried to persuade her. She was silent, reluctant to communicate.
"Although spring has begun now, the temperature is still very low at night, especially in the mountains. Where are you going at this time...... It's dangerous. ”
"Who is in your house? I'll call your family......"
Seeing that the kind driver kept persuading. Ji Si'an finally spoke: "I'm fine, but I'm in a bad mood......"
She looked at the driver's face full of disbelief and was worried that he would call the police, so she lied and said, "I asked my boyfriend to come over." He took me to relax, and then he went back. ”
But she looked like she was out of love in the eyes of the driver, and he didn't believe her words at all.
The driver's approach gave Ji Si'an a small excuse, she took out her mobile phone and dialed Chen Sen's number.
"Chen Sen, I feel very uncomfortable...... Can you accompany me to Tushan to see the stars? Ji Si'an was afraid that Chen Sen would refuse, so he took the lead in speaking.
"It's so late...... I still have something to ......," Chen Sen on the other end of the phone hesitated.
"I'll wait for you." Ji Si'an didn't seem to hear his refusal, and there was too much emotion in the three words.
As the phone hung up, big tears wet the phone screen.
"Master, let's go, my boyfriend will come over in a while, thank you." Ji Si'an's words with tears on his face were not very convincing.
The driver persuaded her a few more words and waited for her to calm down before driving away.
As soon as she got out of the car, the hard mountain wind taught her a lesson. Ji Si'an tightened his collar, took out the down horse jacket from his bag and put it on his body, and then walked towards the mountain against the mountain wind.
Fortunately, the hill was not very high, and after about 20 minutes she found a leeward place to sit.
Leaning against the cold and hard rocks, looking up at the starry sky, tears flowed down again.
It was not only the murderer who made her sad, but also her grandmother......
That ticket...... It shows that grandma knows the murderer......
Over the years, she watched her be so miserable but never took out the ticket......
Is it in her heart that her granddaughter is far less important than her son......
What did she teach...... Her upbringing ...... Now it all looks like compensation......
This incident not only deprived Ji Si'an of her last family affection, but even her grandmother's love for her became less pure.
……
When Chen Sen looked for the mountain, Ji Si'an was curled up behind the rock, his body shrunk into a small ball, helpless like a small beast.
His heart jerked.
"What are you doing here by yourself? How cold it is now! will freeze to death. ”
The warm coat was draped over her shoulders, and Ji Si'an looked up, her cheeks and nose were red from the cold.
"Thank you for coming ......"
"I thought no one in this world would love me......"
"He hates me so much...... He must have wanted me to die with my mother and sister...... But I survived......"
"If I die that day...... Grandma doesn't have to worry about it...... Not to mention guilt and compensation......"
"They've been lying to me...... The people who lied to me were supposed to be the closest to me......"
……
Ji Si'an, who was out of control, saw Chen Sen like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw, and kept telling the bitterness in his heart.
Chen Sen was not comforting, at best he was a qualified listener, he sat beside her in silence and let her speak.
I don't know how long I talked to myself, until there was nothing more to say in my heart, Ji Si'an's sanity finally came back a little.
"I'm sorry...... Called you out so late. ”
When the excitement subsided, and the senses of cold, hunger, and shyness all returned to their places, Ji Si'an began to feel embarrassed.
"It's okay...... We all encounter knots that we can't untie, so just say it. ”
This was the most Chen Sen said since he came.
"I'm sorry for the trouble. …… Next time...... Next time you can just reject me. ”
Speaking of this, she remembered that people had rejected her at first, so she added. "You can't come......"
"You're not well...... It's too cold here, I'll send you back first. "Chen Sen seems to have something.
"Okay." Ji Si'an didn't want to trouble him anymore, so he lowered his head and walked down the mountain in a vague manner.
Sitting in Chen Sen's car, the two were speechless all the way.
When she came to the gate of the Huayuan community, Ji Si'an remembered her and Chen Sen's first meeting. At that time, she must not have imagined that one day when she was extremely sad, she would think of him first.
