Meal.

Chen Xiao got into Xie Wensheng's car.

In the car, Xie Wensheng was in good spirits.

"Listen to the song?"

Chen Xiao smiled: "Team Xie, do you still love music?" ”

"I almost joined the band back then, but then my father dragged me into the police force. I was rebellious at the time, and I almost got into a with him. ”

"Did your father beat you?" Chen Xiaole was happy.

Xie Wensheng squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Have you ever asked this kind of question?" You should ask how many times you have been beaten, and whether you have beaten it ruthlessly. ”

"Haha, I'm pretty much the same. I remember that my father never really touched it until I was in junior high school. Chen Xiao replied, Xie Wensheng nodded in agreement:

"Maybe every father is like this, junior high school is a watershed. They will think that we are almost grown up, and we are almost as tall as them, and it is not appropriate to do it again. ”

"Maybe, but if you really make a big mistake, you can do it."

Xie Wensheng also laughed: "When I was going to form a band, my dad's belt was pulled out. But by that time I was already taller and stronger than him, so I didn't think I needed to scare him. ”

"I didn't feel much pain even when his belt was on me, and it wasn't as good as when he took the scissors and cut off my long hair."

When he said this, Xie Wensheng's eyes were full of nostalgia.

Chen Xiao didn't ask where Xie Wensheng's father was.

The eyes are already visible.

Chen Xiao also feels that she is very lucky, Lao Chen is not very old now, and her mother has not yet entered the ranks of old age.

He and his parents should have many, many years to spend together.

It's just that Xie Wensheng gradually fell silent after talking about his father.

waited until he was in front of an old mansion before Xie Wensheng spoke:

"This is my hometown, and we lived here when my father was still alive."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao was puzzled.

He was talking about his father still alive, but he didn't mention his mother.

"Does Lingtang live with your siblings?" Chen Xiao looked at the old mansion in front of him without any traces of habitation and asked.

Xie Wensheng lowered his head: "My mother is in a nursing home. ”

Chen Xiao frowned.

He doesn't think Xie Wensheng is an unfilial person.

Or maybe he wasn't right.

But he still has a somewhat old-fashioned belief that children should take care of their elderly parents.

Xie Wensheng is already in his thirties and forties, which means that his mother's age should be around 60, or even higher.

This age is not like that of Lao Chen.

And this old man in his 60s, their body is far less robust than that of their peers in later generations.

As for what nursing home, Chen Xiao's trust is not very high.

Xie Wensheng seemed to see Chen Xiao's thoughts, and said bitterly: "She swore that she would never see me again for the rest of her life." ”

Chen Xiao couldn't help but raise her head, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes that was difficult to hide.

Xie Wensheng didn't explain too much at the door, and after making a gesture of please, Chen Xiao followed him into the old mansion first.

As soon as he entered, Chen Xiao could still feel that there were often people cleaning here.

Although the furniture in the room is covered with a cloth of dust, it can still be seen that the cleaner is very careful, and every time the furniture is clean.

"Does my sister-in-law come to clean often?"

"Well, sometimes I'll come when I'm empty."

Chen Xiao recalled that he had not seen any posthumous photos of decorations at Xie Wensheng's home before.

Now Xie Wensheng said that his mother and he have never seen him for the rest of his life, which makes Chen Xiao feel that there should be a lot of stories in it.

Xie Wensheng removed the cloth from two of the chairs and said with a smile: "Sit down." ”

Chen Xiao nodded, and Xie Wensheng pointed to the middle of the hall and said, "That's where I made mistakes when I was young and often knelt." My dad still had a training stick, but I stole it and threw it into the stove, hehe. ”

"Team Xie, you have said so much, can I take the liberty of asking if there is anything between you and Ling Zun Lingtang?"

Chen Xiao finally asked.

Xie Wensheng sighed: "It has been twelve years since my father died in the line of duty, but he is still alive and is still a teacher that many students have seen. ”

When he heard this, Chen Xiao was in awe!

"Mr. Xie is a general teacher?" Chen Xiao asked.

Xie Wensheng hummed: "After my father died, I donated his body to become a general teacher in accordance with his last wishes. Of course, he is also about to retire now, after all, it has been too long. ”

When he said this, Xie Wensheng lowered his head and did not raise it.

Chen Xiao was also at this moment, and the respect in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He was well aware of the importance that people place on human bodies.

It is also clearer how important it is for everyone and their loved ones to be buried in the earth.

Anyone who is willing to donate his body is great in Chen Xiao's eyes.

It's so great that it can't be celebrated in a few words.

However, Chen Xiao also guessed something from Xie Wensheng's short narration.

"Your mother has a big opinion on this decision, right?" Chen Xiao asked.

Xie Wensheng nodded: "Yes, I made this decision according to my father's wishes before his death. But my mother didn't understand and couldn't accept it, although she had a grudge a few years ago, she still supported it, but then she despaired of me, scolded me for being an unfilial son, and made my father close his eyes for so many years and couldn't live in the ground. ”

"Is there a problem with your father's death?" Chen Xiao asked.

"Yes, my father's death was fought for many years, and when he was found, the investigation at the scene showed that he had committed suicide. But my father was not yet 50 years old, so why did he commit suicide? In particular, he was investigating a similar case at the time! ”

Chen Xiao was silent.

Xie Wensheng raised his head slightly, and said: "I still can't understand my father's death, and he and those people's files are even about to be destroyed by me, and I still can't find out what the problem is." Because from the criminal investigation education I received, it was completely a suicide case! ”

"But one of the deceased was my father, and he was the one who investigated the case, so how could he have committed suicide in the same way as the deceased in the case?"

Chen Xiao understood the deep meaning of Xie Wensheng looking for him tonight.

It's just that from the words Xie Wensheng said, Chen Xiao felt that it was not simple.

Although the criminal investigation technology of more than ten years ago was more backward, the police investigating whether the deceased committed suicide or were killed, the police investigating definitely had a set of certain standards.

Especially now, Xie Wensheng still can't find evidence of his murder when he checks the case file, which means that this case has a deep greasy.

Just as Chen Xiao was thinking, Xie Wensheng opened a drawer, took out a photo frame from it and wiped it gently.

Framed is a photo of his father in an old-fashioned police uniform.

As he wiped it, he said:

"My father died because of a ghost legend, and I have looked up that legend for years. Originally, I thought I still had time, but now ...... I'm running out of time with a question mark! ”
