did you lie today

Gu Chang'an locked himself in the room for several hours. It was already midnight when he opened the door and went out. Seeing the light in the main room was on, he was momentarily dazed.

Lin Lan was sleeping with her head propped up, she was not sleeping soundly, her eyebrows were tightly knit together, and she was talking dreamily.

With a sudden soft sound, Lin Lan suddenly opened her eyes and woke up.

Gu Changan calmed down after being at a loss for a few seconds. He walked over and said, "Why don't you go to sleep in the house?"

There was no title in front of him, the word "Mom" jumped on the tip of his tongue a few times, and he swallowed it back, unable to say it, at least not now.

Gu Chang'an didn't know why he was still being hypocritical.

When the man came back, he explained clearly that he didn't have much time to live, so what else could he care about, he had to wait until it was too late before he regretted it?

Lin Lan didn't seem to care very much. She stood up and looked at her son with scarlet eyes and a bad complexion: "This is your home. Mom can't just come into any house without your permission."

Gu Changan suddenly felt a little sad.

He looked at the wall clock, it was almost one o'clock in the morning, and he hadn't eaten dinner yet, so he asked his mother who was looking at him: "You, don't you want to eat something?"

Lin Lan seemed afraid of causing trouble to him, so she hurriedly said, "I won't eat, I'm not hungry."

Gu Chang'an didn't say much, he ordered two bowls of noodles, one for himself and the other for his mother.

Vegetable noodles with poached eggs. It looks appetizing and smells delicious. The soup ingredients are well placed. I haven’t made it [-] times, but I have [-] times.

Lin Lan's eye sockets were hot and humid, she swallowed a mouthful of noodles and ran out.

Gu Changan sat on the chair, and took mouthfuls of noodles from the bowl into his mouth. When the bowl of noodles was bottomed out, he put down his chopsticks, leaned back a little and leaned back against the back of the chair, and squeezed his sore eyes with his hands.

In the morning, Gu Changan called Lichun and learned that there was a temporary change and he would come tomorrow, so he took his mother back to the town.

Returning to the ancient town after many years, Lin Lan's mood was mixed.

Two years ago, the old house was rebuilt and a small three-story building was built with a courtyard. The decoration was very good. It was Bai Yanxiu's idea. He asked Gu Changan, and Gu Changan agreed. The small building is used for office , It is also used as a meeting place for several people.

Gu Changan opened the door and entered the courtyard. Two employees from the relevant departments were chatting away, and when they saw him, they greeted him friendly.

After seeing the woman next to him, he quickly guessed that the relationship between the two was mother and son.

It's too obvious, the eyebrows and eyes are the same, even the expression of being vulnerable is exactly the same.

Genes are a very powerful thing, and you can't accept it.

Lin Lan came out of the small building: "Chang'an, where is your father buried? I want to visit him."

Gu Changan took her to the back mountain.

People in the town grow up, get old, get sick, recover, die, usher in a new life, and reincarnate again. Day after day passes, and the back mountain is always the original back mountain.

Gu Changan stopped in front of a grave surrounded by vegetation.

Lin Lan squatted down and pulled the weeds around the grave with her bare hands. Her palms turned red after a while, but she didn't realize it.

Gu Chang'an didn't stop him. He knew very well that sometimes people have something in their hearts and they have to do something. If you don't let the other person do it, the other person will get sick, and it's a serious illness, and they will never pass that test.

Lin Lan cleaned up all the weeds around the grave, she stood up, her legs and feet were numb, she swayed and leaned forward, one hand supported her in time.

Gu Changan said, "Let's go."

Lin Lan shook her head: "I still want to stay with your dad for a while longer."

Gu Changan let go of his hand and walked away.

When the wife who has been away for many years comes back, there is always something she wants to say to her deceased husband. She doesn't want others to hear it, so she wants to talk to him.

Gu Changan went to the small temple on the mountain, and the door was covered with spider webs. He stared at the big spider lying inside, then looked at the two small ones next to him, and laughed.

"The life is going well, the second child is born."

As soon as Gu Chang'an pushed the wooden door open a crack, a mouse "whoosh" got into the crack of the door from beside his feet, and disappeared in a flash.

Everyone is good, but he is not good.

Gu Changan walked around the small temple with a gloomy face, and found that he couldn't find the breath left by the man at all, there was nothing, it was all fucking dust, and he hit his nose, his mood was extremely bad.

There was a wooden bed in the room, Gu Changan stretched out his hand to wipe it, it was all dust, but he lay down on it.

When he was lying down, he didn't control the strength and angle well, which made his bones ache all over his body. He closed his eyelids with a hiss, and all the bits and pieces about three years ago came out, running around uncontrollably, and the roller coaster in his mind It seemed that there was a rumbling sound.

No, you have to meet someone.

It's hard to fall in love with someone, so you can't let it go like this.

Gu Changan opened his eyes and closed them again. He was thinking about a question. When he saw that man, should he say sorry or thank you first.

For the Lu family, the old man really tried his best to plot against them, plotting against their next patriarch.

To him, Lu Cheng had indeed traded his own life for his.

Gu Chang'an twitched the corners of his mouth meaninglessly, let's talk about it later, if you always think this way, your brain will explode.

Not long after going down the mountain, Gu Changan received a call from Ji Qing, knowing that he was in the town, and asked him to go to the Xin'an Public Security Bureau, saying that there was a new development in the case.

Gu Chang'an didn't really want to go at first, since there are new developments, doesn't that mean it's about to break?

It turned out that the so-called new development was that Sun Daqing's daughter Niuniu had an accident. Fortunately, she was bumped into by a passerby in time and saved her life.

The thing is like this, last night, Sun Daqing hurried to the Public Security Bureau, saying that his daughter was missing.

The Public Security Bureau searched around his house.

More than half an hour later, the Public Security Bureau received a report and found Sun Daqing's daughter. She was in a coma and had inhaled a relatively large amount of drugs. Injury, like it was left when being dragged, no other problems.

According to the person who reported the case, he came back from playing in the Internet cafe all night, and was in a hurry to urinate halfway. He planned to find a remote place to solve the problem. As soon as he touched the belt of his trousers, he saw a girl lying on the ground with a man next to her. .

The reporter was stunned, and when he realized it, the man was dragging the girl forward, so he quickly shouted at the top of his voice.

The man was scared away.

According to the description of the informant, the police found the suspect, who was a fool.

When I found him, he squatted at the door of his house to urinate, his trousers were not pulled down, he peed all over his crotch, and he was so coquettish that he couldn't get close to others.

The idiot was quickly taken to the Public Security Bureau. The interrogator was Wang Mingming. He was punched and kicked when he entered.

Now there is a phenomenon that is becoming more and more serious. When the case is finally investigated and the person is caught, eight out of ten are mentally ill. No matter how many people are killed, they will not be sent to prison or sent to a nursing home. Are you angry?

Wang Mingming is very speechless about this phenomenon in society, and he has been speechless for a long time. His heart is simmering, this fool has hit the crater.

When they arrived at the Public Security Bureau, Lin Lan didn't go in. Gu Chang'an said he would come out in a while.

When Gu Changan entered, the idiot had already been beaten with a bruised nose and a swollen face. He was humming, and he glanced at Wang Mingming: "Okay, stop beating me up."

Hearing those four words, Wang Mingming turned his face suddenly: "Mr. Gu, I can't help it. He insists on pretending to be stupid with me and asking everything. What can I do?"

Gu Changan said: "It's not that I'm pretending to be stupid, I'm really stupid."

Wang Mingming let out a foul breath: "If you are so stupid, you have to ask for a confession, otherwise how can you explain to the families of those little girls?"

Gu Changan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "But the murderer is not him."

Wang Mingming, who was sitting on the chair, stood up when he heard the words: "There are witnesses, fingerprints, hair, and shoe prints. All the evidence points to him. Why not?"

In fact, what he wants to say is that if you don't even ask, you can tell if you just look at it. Is it too hasty?

Gu Chang'an could see what he was thinking: "Those few pieces of evidence can only prove that this person had contact with Niu Niu, but cannot prove that it is Niu Niu who he fainted, let alone prove that he is related to those corpse mutilation cases."

Wang Mingming put his foot on the table leg, hugged his head angrily and stroked it fiercely: "So, someone else let it go?"

Gu Changan shrugged: "I can only let it go."

Wang Mingming scolded Gou Cao for a while.

Walking back and forth, Wang Mingming remembered something, and he patted the table: "Mr. Gu, if it wasn't for this idiot, it means that the real murderer wanted to take Niuniu away, but he happened to meet and saved Niuniu's life." ?”

"It should be." Gu Changan said, "Idiot, I don't know what to do, I am anxious and panic, I am so scared that I want to drag someone away."

"There is another problem. The person who attacked Niu Niu this time is not necessarily the same person as the one in the body dismemberment case. It is not enough to be drugged and stunned. Of course, it is not ruled out that they are the same person."

Wang Mingming's eyes opened slightly, and the next moment he let out a sigh of frustration: "It's over, he's a fool, he can't ask anything even if he asks."

Gu Changan disagreed and said: "It's hard to say, you take someone to the hospital to see the injury first, and then you ask Liu Yue to ask, she looks kind."

"Don't look at it, the skin injury looks serious, and it will heal in two or three days. I was careful when I started." Wang Mingming asked concerned, "Mr. Gu, am I not kind?"

Gu Changan smiled: "Not kind."

Wang Mingming: "..."

Ji Qing was at Sun Daqing's house, and Niu Niu was already awake. When asked her anything, she said she didn't know.

"Then why don't you stay at home?"

"I heard voices outside and thought it was my dad coming back, so I opened the door and went out. I didn't know anything after that."

Ji Qing turned to look at the middle-aged man: "Mr. Sun, did you leave your daughter at home alone at night?"

Sun Daqing rubbed his rough palms guiltily, and muttered with chapped lips, "I confiscated a lot of waste products this month, so I just wanted to walk around to see if I could pick up some bottles and cartons, and I'll be back in a while. I didn't expect this to happen."

"If it wasn't...if someone just happened to see it, Niu Niu would be gone."

As he spoke, Sun Daqing cried out in horror.

Niuniu patted her dad on the back, with a maturity that didn't match her age: "Dad, am I okay?"

Ji Qing looked at the father and daughter in front of him, and frowned tightly. Sun Daqing's daughter almost had an accident this time, and his suspicion was ruled out for the time being. Another suspicious person, Chen Yu, did not have any abnormalities.

She had a feeling that the murderer was here and would commit crimes again.

Maybe the other party's motive for committing the crime is just because of a seemingly commonplace thing, such as "I don't like rainy days", or a morbid logic, "I hate fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls, and I want to kill them when I see them" "I hate the clean and sunny breath on their bodies, it will make me look dirty and ugly."

This kind of analogy is not fabricated out of thin air. Ji Qing has handled similar cases. The brain circuits of criminals are different from normal people, so we cannot treat them with normal thinking methods.

But the reality is cruel, doubts cannot be brought to court, even if you know who the murderer is, it's useless if you can't find evidence.

When Ji Qing returned to the bureau, she learned from her colleagues that when Gu Changan came, she was accompanied by a woman who looked very similar to him and was carved out of the same mold. She was a little surprised, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

And with family, there is hope.

Today is Saturday, White Pearl gets married.

Gu Changan only remembered it when he received a call from Bai Yanxiu. He temporarily went to the supermarket to buy a red envelope, took out a thick stack of cash and put it in.

When Lin Lan heard her son asking her if she wanted to go together, she had expectations in her eyes, but hesitation and caution on her face: "Chang'an, it's not suitable for me to go."

The corners of Gu Changan's lips curved a little, and he said gently, "It's suitable."

Lin Lan looked at her son with some emotion. He didn't mention anything related to the Lu family today. I don't know what he thinks in his heart. No matter what choice he makes, she will be by his side in the last time. If he wants to if.

The Bai family married a daughter, and the son-in-law is also a big family in the town. The banquet held at the largest hotel included both celebrities and dignitaries, as well as ordinary people.

Bai Mu meant that the neighbors had to invite them.

As soon as Gu Changan and Lin Lan entered, they attracted the attention of everyone in the hall. Both the mother and son were extremely outstanding, and it was difficult not to be noticed.

Bai Yanxiu left behind a few acquaintances and came over: "Chang'an, you have something on your mind."

Gu Changan drank the red wine: "Everyone has it."

Bai Yanxiu's eyes were deep: "You come back this time, I think you have changed."

Gu Changan looked at his mother who was talking to Bai Mu, his eyes were soft, and his tone was slightly teasing: "Because I also have a mother's child now."

Bai Yanxiu felt that it was not the only reason. After Lu Cheng left, Gu Changan was just a dead tree. This time, he seemed to have received enough sunlight and water, and was sprouting little by little.

Although I don't know what it is for, it is undeniable that this is a good thing.

Bai Yanxiu looked down on it, if it's not his own, it's not his own, forget it, just be friends.

At least he can chat calmly like now, and look at him blatantly.

"Pearl is so beautiful today." Gu Chang'an suddenly said incoherently, "I heard from your mother that your first love is back."

Bai Yanxiu didn't seem to expect him to bring up this issue, and nodded in shock: "Yes."

Gu Chang'an chuckled: "It's hard to say about fate."

Bai Yanxiu was noncommittal.

"Chang'an, I'm almost forty."

"Time is not forgiving, live every day less, cherish every day."

"Can't you say something nice?"

"Didn't you see that my eyes are swollen? Let me tell you, I'm mentally weak now, and I'm about to collapse. Those words already sound good, and there's nothing better."

Bai Yanxiu shook his head, this man's favor was given to that Lu Cheng, no one else could think of it, only for the sake of watching.

Gu Changan patted him on the shoulder: "Let's settle for the right one, a lifetime is very short."

I don't know if it was because of the festive atmosphere of my sister's marriage, or because of Gu Chang'an's words, something in Bai Yanxiu's heart collapsed, and he suddenly became sad, feeling that he was quite lonely.

On the other side, Bai's mother was chatting with Chang'an's mother. No matter how they looked at it, they hit it off, probably because the mother and son looked alike, so they couldn't get acquainted.

Mother Bai was a little emotional for a while, she really liked Chang'an from the bottom of her heart, she felt that any place was good, so good that sometimes she would think, if she was 40 or [-] years younger, she would definitely go after her and run away from her shoes , all kinds of chasing.

At the earliest time, Mother Bai saw Chang'an as her future son-in-law. Later, when she came into contact with her, there was a showdown, and she couldn't become a son-in-law. And later... recognized him as a godson.

What a trick.

Mother Bai looked at Chang'an's mother, her attitude was very friendly, she didn't have the airs of a rich and noble lady, in order to appear approachable, she even took off the string of big pearls around her neck: "A few years ago, Chang'an had a conversation with someone. I haven't even seen Nian, and every time I see him, I feel that he is thinner than last time."

"Old sister, I've broken my heart with you."

Although the person looked younger than herself, but the other party said her age was indeed a few years older than herself, so Bai Mu called out, "My son has always liked Chang'an, and he has been on the top of his heart for the past few years. He It seems that I still can’t forget the object, so it’s not okay, people have to look forward and can’t stay where they are, what do you think, old sister?”

Lin Lan didn't speak.

The child of the Lu family is not dead, but it is not suitable to say this to unrelated people.

Besides, she didn't know what Chang'an's plan was.

Mother Bai thought to herself, this Chang'an mother doesn't know how to take care of it. Her skin is really good, but there are some fine lines around her eyes and no wrinkles on her face. It's amazing enough that she almost asked what mask she used.

"Old sister, my son is in his thirties, and your parent, An, is not young. Just delay like this. After every day, it will be a year. After a lifetime, it will be gone."

These are all words from the heart, without falsehood.

Lin Lan sighed lightly: "I respect Chang'an's ideas."

Mother Bai seemed to be choking, and she didn't make a sound for a long time. She wanted to say something, but was called away by a sister.

Lin Lan looked at her child through the crowd and saw that he was talking to the people beside him. He was absent-minded, and it seemed that he was very preoccupied. She was disturbed by the noise around her, so she walked over there.
