Chapter 14 Tea is not necessarily tea
When Fang Xiaoling returned home, the imaginary scolding did not appear, but her mother's long hug and silent crying, and after a while, her mother asked in a trembling tone, "What about your sister?" ”
She ...... I went to a friend's house to play. After Fang Xiaoling finished speaking, she didn't hear her mother's response for a long time, so she immediately added, "It's an older sister, her elementary school classmate, who moved to another city before, and now she is back, so my sister misses her very much, so ...... So ......"
Fang Xiaoling really couldn't make it up, her mother still didn't respond, she thought that her mother's temper was finally about to explode, but just when she was ready to be blamed, she heard her mother's long sigh, which was a sigh of relief, like a heavy weighing stone hanging in her heart finally disappeared.
"It's okay."
Hearing such a response, Fang Xiaoling only felt a sense of distress, she also wanted to hug and comfort her mother in front of her, but her hands stopped when she was still some distance away from her mother's back, she forced herself not to comfort her mother, and kept reminding herself in her heart that it was Fang Xiaoling, Fang Xiaoling who wanted to return to the real world to cheer up and start again. She can't have too many emotional illusions about the woman in front of her, sympathy is likely to make her fall deeper and deeper into that dangerous thought, that thought is: I am Li Mengling, and I have always been, but suddenly one day, I accidentally obtained the memory of a person named Fang Xiaoling in other worlds, and my sister Li Mengli's situation is basically the same, and she has obtained Roland's memory, which makes me and my sister think that we are them, but in fact, we are Li Mengli and Li Mengling.
Her mother hugged her like this for a long time, and then she suddenly remembered something, took out her mobile phone and dialed Li Mengling's father's number.
Because the two Li Mengli sisters disappeared for less than 24 hours, the police did not file a case for the time being, and their father was still outside at this time begging people everywhere to find a relationship, hoping to use the camera of the city's Skynet system to find the traces of the two children.
"Look at you, do you treat me like an outsider? Don't you do things if you don't give things? Chen Lixin's head leaned back on the chair, and pushed the box of tea to the edge of the table as he spoke, "Although tea is not worth much, don't harm me, don't think that this criminal investigation captain is amazing, to put it bluntly, he works for the people." As for this, the staff in the monitoring room has already left work. Second, the disappearance can only be reported within 24 hours, this is a rule, and I am not alone in the final say. ”
"Look at what you said, I haven't seen my old classmates for a long time, can't I express my longing?" Li Hai went out to work hard when he was young, and had three years of public relations experience, although he suffered a lot of losses without culture, but he was clever, and he did not make a lot of money doing business in Canglan City over the years after getting married, but he accumulated a lot of social experience, he slowly pushed the box of tea that looked very ordinary, and said meaningfully, "This tea may not be tea, you have to take it as my great friendship!" ”
"Brother Li! Don't you understand me? How big a thing the child has lost, you still have the leisure to push around with me here, I say don't want it, don't make our classmates vulgar! Let's go to the monitoring room now. As he spoke, Chen Lixin opened a drawer, which was empty, and he rummaged through the desktop again, and said to himself, "Where is the key to the monitoring room?" You see my memory, I forgot to close the door when I went out of the house yesterday, but fortunately I didn't lose anything. I've found the key, you come with me. ”
After saying that, he got up and walked out of the door, Li Hai glanced at the empty drawer that was still open at this time, put the tea in the drawer, and closed the door of the drawer, and then immediately went out to follow Chen Lixin.
When he received a call from his wife and learned that Li Mengling had gone home, the two of them just walked to the door of the monitoring room.
"Found it?" Chen Lixin vaguely heard the voice coming from the mobile phone, he put the key he just took out back into his pocket, patted Li Hai on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, the parents are in a hurry to report the case, and there will be too many things for the children to go home by themselves in a while." I also understand, after all, parents are concerned about the safety of their children. ”
Li Hai nodded, he was about to say goodbye to Chen Lixin, but a cold and familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Dad, save me." ”
It was the voice of his eldest daughter Li Mengli, maybe he was hallucinating, but the voice seemed to have entered his head and kept repeating, which made him feel extremely uneasy.
"I'd still like to go in and check it out." Li Hai didn't go around the bend anymore, and said directly, "The second child has gone home, but the eldest hasn't come home yet, I want to see where she went." ”
Although Chen Lixin was a little reluctant in his heart, after all, Li Hai didn't carry the box of tea in his hand when he came to the monitoring room, which showed that Li Hai understood his true intentions and had already put the tea in the drawer.
The surveillance footage followed from the taxi to the Canglan International Community, and after the two sisters got off the car, they could not continue to follow up the footage. After learning that there was no monitoring in the community, Li Hai asked Chen Lixin to turn the time back, and he also felt that Li Mengli might have taken his sister to play with his classmates, and then called a car to send his sister home, and he wanted to live in the same class, which was basically the same as the situation described by his wife on the phone. However, just as Lehi was about to stop watching the surveillance, a black shadow flashed on the fast-forward surveillance footage.
"Stop! Backwards, that's where you were just now. If there were cars in this neighborhood, maybe Lehi wouldn't pay too much attention to it, but there were very few cars in this neighborhood, not to mention that in this flashing black shadow, Lehi, as a father, had an unsettling intuition, and his two daughters seemed to be in that dark shadow.
"Where did you get this motorcycle?" Even though the two people in the picture were wearing helmets, Lehi was 100% sure that they were his two daughters, and the more he thought about it, the more surprised he became, "When will Mengli ride a motorcycle?" This can't be, she's usually a very quiet girl, and even listening to music is based on soft light music, she can't wear this kind of clothes, it's not her...... Ahh “
"Hey, I said Brother Li, you parents always think you know your children. I'll tell you this, three months ago we had a case of school violence, and the parents of the abuser didn't believe it was their child until they watched the video of the violence! Chen Lixin lit a cigarette, "Of course, I didn't say that your daughter is not good, child, easy to rebel, or maybe you have been stressed recently, and you want to ride a motorcycle to relax, normal, just vent." ”
When Chen Lixin spoke, Li Hai always shook his head slowly, first of all, he felt that Chen Lixin was completely standing and talking without back pain, and secondly, the more he looked at the motorcycle that was racing all the way, the more unbelievable he felt, and then even to the extent of being extremely frightened when he thought about it, he felt an inexplicable coolness wandering on his back. Until he saw Li Mengli squatting down and carrying Li Mengling into the rape flower field, he only felt dizzy and a little unsteady under his feet.
"Oh my God, Mengli is allergic to pollen, she knows it." Li Hai simply pressed the fast-forward button by himself, he stared at the monitor until the two of them came out of the rape field unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief, but it was this breath that made his spirit even weaker, he shook his head, frowned and watched Li Mengli kick the motorcycle in the picture, galloping into the city, and after separating from his sister, he shuttled through the vehicle, and finally entered the building of the rooftop bar.
He saw all this clearly, and he comforted himself in his heart, maybe what Chen Lixin said was right, maybe this kid didn't know when, he secretly learned to ride a motorcycle, and secretly learned to go to a bar. But there was a stronger feeling in his heart that completely suppressed these comforts, and he tried his best to restrain himself from describing that feeling, but he still said in front of Chen Lixin: "Brother, have you ever witnessed something about a ghost?" ”
After he asked this sentence, he rushed away in Chen Lixin's stunned and somewhat mocking expression, he wanted to go to the rooftop bar to find his eldest daughter immediately, along the way, he began to regret it a little, not because he said the last inexplicable sentence in the monitoring room, but because he might have something to ask Chen Lixin in the future, which made him feel that he had done the stupidest thing in society for so many years.
At this time, Chen Lixin was clasping the tea leaves in the box with his fingers, the tea leaves were still tea leaves, and then the tea leaves were still tea leaves, he simply poured the entire can of tea on the desk, and a fragrant smell suddenly came to his nose, but this fragrance made Chen Lixin disgusted for a long, long time......
