I miss you
Chapter 87
After the flavor of the new year is getting stronger, the weather is getting colder and colder.Zhou Jiayu is like a bear that needs to hibernate, the clothes are getting thicker and thicker, and the movements are getting slower and slower.But he felt that he was much better than last year, because at least he could warm himself in Lin Zhushui's arms when it was cold.
The New Year's Eve dinner was cooked by Zhou Jiayu and a few apprentices. Of course, Zhou Jiayu was in charge, and the dishes were everyone's favorite.The weasel's fur was also changed into a thick winter coat, which felt very good to the touch. Xiao Zhi shamelessly lay on its body and plucked its fur every day.
At first, Zhou Jiayu tried to persuade him that he was afraid that Xiaozhi would bald the weasel again, but seeing that the weasel didn't care about it, he didn't take this matter to heart anymore.
As the new year was approaching, more people came to the Lin family to pay New Year's greetings. Most of them were blocked outside, but some could come in. For example, Lin Po's father, Lin Zhushui's nominal brother, came over.
However, the process of getting along with Lin Zhushui after he came was not pleasant. Lin Zhushui treated him like air the whole time, so Lin Jue had no choice but to say hello.Lin Po's father was not happy to see Lin Zhushui's attitude, but he couldn't get angry. When it was time to eat, Lin Zhushui said: "It's noon."
Under such circumstances, the next sentence of an ordinary person would probably be to stay here for a meal, but Lin Zhushui was obviously not an ordinary person, so he slightly parted his thin lips, and said calmly, "Please, I won't keep you for dinner. "
This is going to drive people away, Lin Po's father's face is livid, the worst thing is that no one in the room dares to smooth things over, even Lin Jue is pretending to play with his mobile phone and not answering the call.
So in the end Lin Po's father left angrily, and Zhou Jiayu said in a low voice: "Everyone, come and eat, I made squirrel mandarin fish and braised lamb chops..."
As soon as the name of the dish was heard, the frozen atmosphere in the room suddenly became jubilant.
Regarding the relationship between Lin Zhushui and the Lin family, one night Lin Jue quietly told Zhou Jiayu the whole story.It turned out that Lin Zhushui's parents wanted to buy time after discovering Lin Zhushui's physical problems, so they went to the Lin family to ask for a piece of precious yin ancient jade.That ancient jade can restrain Lin Zhushui's extreme yang physique and give them more time to save Lin Zhushui.
Who knew that the Lin family would directly reject the request after hearing the couple's request, and the head of the Lin family at the time said that Lin Zhushui's fate could not be changed at all, and using this piece of ancient jade was a waste.Under such circumstances, Lin Zhushui's parents took the risk and used an extremely dangerous method. While changing Lin Zhushui's fate, they also lost their own lives.
"What exactly is that method, we still don't know." Lin Jue said, "After this happened, it became a hurdle in Zhushui's heart, and he could no longer get close to the Lin family."
Zhou Jiayu felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. Lin Zhushui's parents obviously paid a heavy price to let him live past eighteen, and he wondered if they would know that their wish had come true after they left this world.
"If you have nothing to do, run to Zhushui more often." Lin Jue said, "There are too many people here, and it's hard to control."
Zhou Jiayu was startled: "Operation??"
Lin Jue is obviously an old driver, and he separated the two words word by word and said heavily: "Fuck, do it."
Zhou Jiayu made a gesture of admiration towards Lin Jue.
Zhou Jiayu had no experience in this area. He had heard about it, but he had never practiced it. Under Lin Jue's reminder, he wanted to learn more about this area.So Quiet Mimi wanted to go to the Internet to download some related videos to train myself.
However, as a person who doesn't usually watch movies, Zhou Jiayu searched for a long time but couldn't find a place to get started. In desperation, he could only ask Xu Ruwang vaguely. Xu Ruwang is also gay, so he must know better than him. many.
After Xu Ruwang heard what Zhou Jiayu wanted, the first thing he asked was: "Who are you with?"
Zhou Jiayu said, "Guess."
Xu Ruwang said: "Damn it, don't fucking tell me that you and Lin Zhushui are together."
Zhou Jiayu: "Hmm..."
Xu Ruwang sent a row of exclamation marks, and gave a thumbs up at the end.
Zhou Jiayu said, "So, do you have that?"
Xu Ru vainly said, "Which country do you want?"
Zhou Jiayu said: "Anything is fine." After he finished speaking, he added, "Let's be more tactful first." It was too exciting at the beginning, and he was afraid that he would not be able to control it.
Xu Ru hummed, and sent several URLs to Zhou Jiayu. Zhou Jiayu slowly moved the mouse up and clicked on the URL.
The webpage opened, and a pair of boys sitting on the bed appeared. As the progress bar moved forward, Zhou Jiayu's breathing became a little rough, and the bases of his ears turned red. He paused, smoked a cigarette, and then before returning to the screen.
That night, Zhou Jiayu went to the toilet three times, and had a dream in which Lin Zhushui was there, lying beside Zhou Jiayu, looking at him tenderly.
Those eyes that had been closed all this time also opened, and there was a drowning tenderness in the black pupils.Zhou Jiayu hugged him together, feeling like his body was on fire. He called out Mr.'s name in a low voice, and his soul was melted by the scorching temperature.
When Zhou Jiayu woke up the next day, he was not surprised to find that his trousers were wet, so he hurried downstairs to wash his trousers, only to meet Shen Yiqiong who had started jogging in the toilet by accident.
Shen Yiqiong was also an adolescent boy with excessive energy. When he saw Zhou Jiayu washing his pants, he showed a clear expression, and said, oh, I met a young lady in my dream last night.
Zhou Jiayu glanced at him faintly.
After Shen Yiqiong scratched his head, he suddenly realized: "...Isn't it a little sister or a little brother?"
Zhou Jiayu remained silent.
Shen Yiqiong's expression stiffened: "Could it be Mr...."
Zhou Jiayu threw down his underpants angrily: "If you talk nonsense, go eat the noodles you made yourself at noon."
Shen Yiqiong made a gesture to zip his mouth, and quickly slipped away.
Because of last night's dream, Zhou Jiayu felt quite embarrassed when he saw Lin Zhushui, even though the two had confirmed their relationship and had already kissed.But when seeing a real person, he would always think of Lin Zhushui in the dream last night. Zhou Jiayu lowered his head and kept digging rice into his mouth, not daring to look up at all.
He was digging, but the phone suddenly rang. When he picked it up, it was an unfamiliar number. Zhou Jiayu pressed the call button: "Hello."
"Your package has arrived." It turned out to be the courier.
"Package?" Probably because Xiao Jinlong cast too much shadow on them before, Zhou Jiayu felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the word "package", he said, "Don't give it to me, I didn't buy anything..."
"It was delivered by Mr. Xu Jinghuo." The courier added.
When Zhou Jiayu heard Xu Jinghuo's name, his expression froze for a moment, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you can leave it with the guard."
"Okay." The courier hung up the phone.
Zhou Jiayu put down the phone and said hesitantly, "It's the courier who said that Xu Jinghuo sent me a package."
Obviously everyone is very sensitive to the name, and the action of eating food stopped for a moment, Lin Jue frowned: "Xu Jinghuo? What is he sending you a package for?"
"I don't know, I don't know him well." Zhou Jiayu said, "I asked the courier to leave the package at the door. I'll go over and have a look."
"I'm with you." Lin Zhushui put down his chopsticks and stood up.
Zhou Jiayu didn't try to be brave either, after all, if there was anything strange in the package, Lin Zhushui would definitely find it out first.
At the door, Zhou Jiayu saw the package in the courier's mouth.It was a small package that looked like a notebook.
Zhou Jiayu held it in his hand and squeezed it. It felt like a hard box. Lin Zhushui stretched out his hand to him: "Show me."
Zhou Jiayu handed over the package.
Lin Zhushui took the package and checked it briefly, "There is nothing dirty, open it."
With Lin Zhushui's permission, Zhou Jiayu took off the outer skin of the package. After the outer skin was peeled off, a small wooden box was revealed inside. The wooden box was square, but it was the size of a notebook, and the thickness was quite thin. of.
"It's a box." Zhou Jiayu studied for a while, and found a small button on the top of the box, "There seems to be something inside."
Lin Zhushui said: "I'll come."
Zhou Jiayu handed the box to Lin Zhushui.
Lin Zhushui moved his fingers slightly and pressed the button on the box.With a click, a small drawer popped out of the box, and Zhou Jiayu saw Lin Zhushui take out the contents of the small drawer.
"Paper?" Lin Zhushui frowned slightly, as if he didn't understand what it was.
Zhou Jiayu took the paper and found that the wooden box contained a very thin piece of kraft paper. The color of the paper was an old yellow. It seemed to be torn from something, and the bumps on the edges could still be seen. uneven.Zhou Jiayu rummaged up and down, but couldn't find anything special: "There's nothing on the paper."
Lin Zhushui fell into deep thought, obviously thinking about something.
Zhou Jiayu didn't dare to disturb him, so he stood quietly beside him. After a while, Lin Zhushui said, "Let's go back first."
"Yeah." Zhou Jiayu nodded.
Everyone in the family was very curious about what Xu Jinghuo sent Zhou Jiayu. After seeing the plain kraft paper, they all showed confused expressions.
"Why did you send paper?" Lin Jue held the paper and studied it for a while, but found nothing unusual on the paper. It seemed to be an ordinary piece of paper with no other smell.
"I don't know." Zhou Jiayu didn't understand either.He was not familiar with Xu Jinghuo, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lin Zhushui pointed at the table with his fingers, and remained silent.
It wasn't until everyone discussed it that he said: "Keep it for now, since he sent you this thing, it should be of some use."
Zhou Jiayu thought that was the only way to go.So he put the paper back into the wooden box, and carefully locked it into the cabinet in his room.
This package seemed to be just an insignificant episode, which did not bring any changes to their lives.
After the new year, Lin Zhushui became busy again, and more and more people asked him for help. Some people could stop them, but some had to receive them.
For example, Lin Zhushui was doing a look at a young girl these days.
"Mr. Lin, can you help me find out the marriage?" The girl asked a question that most young girls are worried about.
Lin Zhushui gently pinched the girl's hand, then let go: "Do you have any animals in your house?"
"Animals?" The girl thought about it carefully, "I like animals, and I have quite a few... cats and dogs."
"Something special." Lin Zhushui said.
"Special..." The girl thought about it, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, "Oh! I raised a white fox!"
Lin Zhushui said, "Release the fox."
The girl was a little displeased when she heard it: "But I really like that fox, it is beautiful and human..."
Lin Zhushui said, "So do you want a fox or a boyfriend?"
The girl began to tangle again, and said aggrievedly that she couldn't have all of them.
Lin Zhushui didn't talk about love, but took a sip of the tea in front of him.
In the end, the girl compromised and said she would release the fox when she went back. Then she worried that if she kept the fox for too long, it would lose its ability to hunt prey. It seemed that she really liked this pet.
Lin Zhushui said one last sentence, he said: "Foxes must be released into the wild, as far away as possible, and we will not raise such animals in the future."
"Why?" asked the girl.
"Because they are jealous." Lin Zhushui said, "Sometimes jealous animals are scarier than humans."
The girl showed a scared expression when she heard the words, nodded and asked some details before getting up to leave.
When Lin Zhushui was doing these things, Zhou Jiayu was standing next to him, so he could accumulate some experience. This girl has beautiful beauties on her forehead, and the corners of her eyes are standard peach blossom eyes. It stands to reason that she should be very lucky, but she didn't. Thinking of being trapped by marriage.
"Foxes also attract peach blossoms." After the girl left, Lin Zhushui taught Zhou Jiayu a lesson, "But if there are too many peach blossoms, it is easy to become evil. Everything should be done in moderation."
Zhou Jiayu nodded.
After returning from S City, Lin Jue followed up on the bone house.After calling the police, the house was demolished by the police, and a total of more than 200 bones were found. After they were broken up, all the bones were embedded in the wall. They were arranged in order of the length of the bones. Seeing this description makes one's scalp numb.
This matter is too sensational, and the number of victims involved is really too large. If the media finds out, it will definitely make a big news. Fortunately, the police have done a good job of keeping secrets, and it has not been exposed. Although it has been spread in the industry, But at least ordinary people don't know it.
After a detailed investigation of the residents who had lived in the house, the police also came to a conclusion similar to theirs. The bone building was built by the first owner, the couple.It stands to reason that to build such a villa, you have to make some noise no matter what, but according to the feedback from the surrounding residents, this house can be described as silent when it was built, and it stood up without knowing it.And the couple who lived there had never been seen before.
As for real estate registration, the Internet was not well developed when the house was built, and the police found that the names of the two people on the real estate registration records were fake names at all, and such a couple did not exist.
"So the murderer hasn't been found yet?" Zhou Jiayu asked, "What is the purpose of this house?"
"It seems to be used to suppress some dirty things." Lin Jue couldn't tell, "Since they are gone now, it means that the suppressed things are gone too, um...it's really a bit strange."
Zhou Jiayu faintly felt that this matter was not over yet.
In the end, his premonition was really right. A few months after leaving S City, Jiang Xutao suddenly called Lin Jue. He didn't know what he said on the phone, but Lin Jue's brows became more and more furrowed. .
"What happened?" Zhou Jiayu asked.
Lin Jue said, "Do you still remember Jiang Xutao's daughter?"
"I remember." The girl Zhou Jiayu was quite impressed, so naturally she remembered it.
"Something happened to her." Lin Jue's tone was a little irritated, "Didn't the bone house be demolished before? It is now in ruins. Jiang Xutao said that his daughter would sneak to the ruins every night, and the next morning just came back."
"...Is she trapped?" Zhou Jiayu could only think of this possibility.
"I don't know." Lin Jue said, "I guess we have to go and have a look."
"All right." Zhou Jiayu had no objection.
Lin Zhushui naturally also knew about this, but he looked very calm after understanding the situation: "Then go and have a look, there should be something special about that house that you haven't noticed."
Lin Jue said hello, and the group hurried back to City S again.
Compared with a few months ago, Jiang Xutao's mental state seemed much better. Although he still looked sad because of his daughter's situation, at least there were no traces of bruising on his body, and he would not be troubled by fear.
When he saw Lin Zhushui, he was overjoyed and called Mr. Lin several times.
"Where's your daughter?" Lin Zhushui cut to the chase.
"In the house." Jiang Xutao said, "She's not in a good state of mind..."
"Just take me there." Lin Zhushui was straightforward.
Jiang Xutao nodded, and saw Zhou Jiayu standing behind Lin Zhushui again. He hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "You can come over too, my little girl really likes the paper crane you gave me earlier."
Zhou Jiayu nodded flattered.
Then the two followed Jiang Xutao into the room and saw Yaya in the corner of the room.
Compared with a few months ago, Yaya looks a little thinner, her originally fair and round face has become a pointed chin.She sat silently in a corner of the room, holding the doll in her arms, and sat with her head bowed.
"Ya Ya." Jiang Xutao called softly.
Yaya raised her head and saw Zhou Jiayu and Lin Zhushui. After seeing the two, her expression didn't change in any way, and she lowered her head again.
"Yaya." Jiang Xutao said, "Can you tell me something, uncle can help you solve it..."
Ya Ya didn't speak.
Jiang Xutao spoke a few more words of persuasion, and just when Zhou Jiayu thought she would be silent until the end, Yaya slowly opened her mouth, and she said, "They want to find something."
"Something?" Jiang Xutao asked suspiciously, "What?"
Yaya shook her head: "I don't know, I just know it's a black box buried under the house."
"The black box?" Jiang Xutao was confused, "Who are they..." He wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Lin Zhushui.
"Take us directly to the ruins of the house." Lin Zhushui said.
Jiang Xutao hesitated for a while, but agreed to Lin Zhushui's proposal, picked up Yaya, and went to the ruins.
On the way there, Ya Ya didn't speak the whole time, her expression looked neither fearful nor expectant, but a little numb.
Looking at her like this, Zhou Jiayu felt slightly worried.
The area of the villa has been sealed off since the accident, but Jiang Xutao should have a relationship with the police, so he went in after hitting someone.
The bone house villa has been demolished, leaving only ruins. Among the ruins, Ya Ya seems to be attracted by something, and wants to go to the center again.But Jiang Xutao was afraid that she would be hurt, so he kept holding her and didn't let go.
"There's something, there's something down there." Yaya yelled, trying to break free from Jiang Xutao's arms.
Hearing this, Lin Zhushui walked forward slowly, and came to a piece of mud that had been turned over. He picked up a steel bar next to him and started digging the soil. Zhou Jiayu and Shen Yiqiong hurried over to help when they saw it.
The soil is a bit hard, and it takes a lot of effort to dig it, even for a few big men.
While they were digging, Yaya was watching expectantly, with an excited expression on his face.
Half an hour later, several people were sweating a little. Zhou Jiayu took out a tissue and wiped Lin Zhushui's forehead and temples naturally.
Shen Yiqiong looked at Zhou Jiayu anxiously, but Zhou Jiayu ruthlessly rejected him: "Come by yourself."
Shen Yiqiong showed resentment, saying that you have changed.
Zhou Jiayu said I was crooked.
Shen Yiqiong: "..."
They had already dug a bit deep, if Lin Zhushui hadn't chosen this place, Zhou Jiayu might have suspected that he had dug in the wrong place.After digging for more than ten minutes, they finally found something. Zhou Jiayu touched a hard object, and he said, "There is something!"
After digging down for a while, an exquisite small iron box appeared in front of everyone.
"The box—" Zhou Jiayu quickly dug out the iron box from the soil, thinking that this was what Yaya was looking for.
There is a small lock hanging on the iron box. Judging from the rust marks on the outside, it has been a few years.
Zhou Jiayu wiped off the stains on the iron box with paper, picked it up and shook it up and down: "It's not heavy...what's inside?"
"Let me take a look." Lin Jue said, "This lock is specially made, and without a key, it will probably have to be removed violently, but will there be any dangerous items inside, so it's okay to just remove it like this?"
Lin Zhushui spat out a word: "Demolition."
So everyone took the iron box and went back to the house directly, and after finding the tools, they began to remove the lock.Lin Jue came for this job. From the time he went to school, Zhou Jiayu found that Lin Jue was quite good at picking locks, and he didn't know when he learned this skill.
After the box was dug out, Yaya's mood became very calm, and she didn't take her eyes off the box for a moment.
The lock on the box was really troublesome. Lin Jue worked on it for about an hour or two. When everyone was a little tired, they heard a light click, and the small lock on it fell to the ground—the box opened.
"It's open." Lin Jue said in surprise.
The box was moved away, and everyone gathered around, curious about the contents of the box.
Lin Jue lifted the lid of the box and saw the contents of the iron box. After seeing clearly what was inside, she was a little surprised: "This is... a photo frame?"
It was indeed an upside-down photo frame. Lin Jue reached out to pick it up, turned it over, and let everyone see the details of the photo frame clearly.
There is an old black and white photo inlaid in the photo frame. The photo is a family portrait of a family of three.A seven or eight-year-old boy stood in the middle and showed a bright smile. On the left and right, he was holding his father and mother, and the taste of happiness could be seen from their expressions.
It's just that the photos are too old and out of shape. Zhou Jiayu always feels that the people in the photos look a little ghostly and full of uncomfortable feelings.Especially the parents standing on both sides, their faces were stained with faint black spots.
"This is..." Lin Jue's expression was a bit complicated, "The first owner of the villa?"
"It seems so." Zhou Jiayu said, "But didn't they always say that only couples live in this house? Why is there another child..."
The room was very quiet, and no one answered Zhou Jiayu's question, but Ya Ya, who was hugged by Jiang Xutao, showed a bright smile at this moment.
The author has something to say: Xiaozhi’s stomach will swell after eating, it’s just a round bulge, it’s soft when you poke it, and it will move your hand away in displeasure after a few more pokes.The flat ones can also be worn with clothes. They can be attached to the body, or they can be made by sticking two pieces of paper together and then slipped over the head.But Xiaozhi is a boy, and he will get a little emotional if he wears a small skirt.
The New Year's Eve dinner was cooked by Zhou Jiayu and a few apprentices. Of course, Zhou Jiayu was in charge, and the dishes were everyone's favorite.The weasel's fur was also changed into a thick winter coat, which felt very good to the touch. Xiao Zhi shamelessly lay on its body and plucked its fur every day.
At first, Zhou Jiayu tried to persuade him that he was afraid that Xiaozhi would bald the weasel again, but seeing that the weasel didn't care about it, he didn't take this matter to heart anymore.

Under such circumstances, the next sentence of an ordinary person would probably be to stay here for a meal, but Lin Zhushui was obviously not an ordinary person, so he slightly parted his thin lips, and said calmly, "Please, I won't keep you for dinner. "
This is going to drive people away, Lin Po's father's face is livid, the worst thing is that no one in the room dares to smooth things over, even Lin Jue is pretending to play with his mobile phone and not answering the call.
So in the end Lin Po's father left angrily, and Zhou Jiayu said in a low voice: "Everyone, come and eat, I made squirrel mandarin fish and braised lamb chops..."
As soon as the name of the dish was heard, the frozen atmosphere in the room suddenly became jubilant.

Everyone in the family was very curious about what Xu Jinghuo sent Zhou Jiayu. After seeing the plain kraft paper, they all showed confused expressions.
"Why did you send paper?" Lin Jue held the paper and studied it for a while, but found nothing unusual on the paper. It seemed to be an ordinary piece of paper with no other smell.
"I don't know." Zhou Jiayu didn't understand either.He was not familiar with Xu Jinghuo, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Lin Zhushui pointed at the table with his fingers, and remained silent.
It wasn't until everyone discussed it that he said: "Keep it for now, since he sent you this thing, it should be of some use."
Zhou Jiayu thought that was the only way to go.So he put the paper back into the wooden box, and carefully locked it into the cabinet in his room.
This package seemed to be just an insignificant episode, which did not bring any changes to their lives.
After the new year, Lin Zhushui became busy again, and more and more people asked him for help. Some people could stop them, but some had to receive them.
For example, Lin Zhushui was doing a look at a young girl these days.
"Mr. Lin, can you help me find out the marriage?" The girl asked a question that most young girls are worried about.
Lin Zhushui gently pinched the girl's hand, then let go: "Do you have any animals in your house?"
"Animals?" The girl thought about it carefully, "I like animals, and I have quite a few... cats and dogs."
"Something special." Lin Zhushui said.
"Special..." The girl thought about it, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, "Oh! I raised a white fox!"
Lin Zhushui said, "Release the fox."
The girl was a little displeased when she heard it: "But I really like that fox, it is beautiful and human..."
Lin Zhushui said, "So do you want a fox or a boyfriend?"
The girl began to tangle again, and said aggrievedly that she couldn't have all of them.
Lin Zhushui didn't talk about love, but took a sip of the tea in front of him.
In the end, the girl compromised and said she would release the fox when she went back. Then she worried that if she kept the fox for too long, it would lose its ability to hunt prey. It seemed that she really liked this pet.
Lin Zhushui said one last sentence, he said: "Foxes must be released into the wild, as far away as possible, and we will not raise such animals in the future."
"Why?" asked the girl.
"Because they are jealous." Lin Zhushui said, "Sometimes jealous animals are scarier than humans."
The girl showed a scared expression when she heard the words, nodded and asked some details before getting up to leave.
When Lin Zhushui was doing these things, Zhou Jiayu was standing next to him, so he could accumulate some experience. This girl has beautiful beauties on her forehead, and the corners of her eyes are standard peach blossom eyes. It stands to reason that she should be very lucky, but she didn't. Thinking of being trapped by marriage.
"Foxes also attract peach blossoms." After the girl left, Lin Zhushui taught Zhou Jiayu a lesson, "But if there are too many peach blossoms, it is easy to become evil. Everything should be done in moderation."
Zhou Jiayu nodded.
After returning from S City, Lin Jue followed up on the bone house.After calling the police, the house was demolished by the police, and a total of more than 200 bones were found. After they were broken up, all the bones were embedded in the wall. They were arranged in order of the length of the bones. Seeing this description makes one's scalp numb.
This matter is too sensational, and the number of victims involved is really too large. If the media finds out, it will definitely make a big news. Fortunately, the police have done a good job of keeping secrets, and it has not been exposed. Although it has been spread in the industry, But at least ordinary people don't know it.
After a detailed investigation of the residents who had lived in the house, the police also came to a conclusion similar to theirs. The bone building was built by the first owner, the couple.It stands to reason that to build such a villa, you have to make some noise no matter what, but according to the feedback from the surrounding residents, this house can be described as silent when it was built, and it stood up without knowing it.And the couple who lived there had never been seen before.
As for real estate registration, the Internet was not well developed when the house was built, and the police found that the names of the two people on the real estate registration records were fake names at all, and such a couple did not exist.
"So the murderer hasn't been found yet?" Zhou Jiayu asked, "What is the purpose of this house?"
"It seems to be used to suppress some dirty things." Lin Jue couldn't tell, "Since they are gone now, it means that the suppressed things are gone too, um...it's really a bit strange."
Zhou Jiayu faintly felt that this matter was not over yet.
In the end, his premonition was really right. A few months after leaving S City, Jiang Xutao suddenly called Lin Jue. He didn't know what he said on the phone, but Lin Jue's brows became more and more furrowed. .
"What happened?" Zhou Jiayu asked.
Lin Jue said, "Do you still remember Jiang Xutao's daughter?"
"I remember." The girl Zhou Jiayu was quite impressed, so naturally she remembered it.
"Something happened to her." Lin Jue's tone was a little irritated, "Didn't the bone house be demolished before? It is now in ruins. Jiang Xutao said that his daughter would sneak to the ruins every night, and the next morning just came back."
"...Is she trapped?" Zhou Jiayu could only think of this possibility.
"I don't know." Lin Jue said, "I guess we have to go and have a look."
"All right." Zhou Jiayu had no objection.
Lin Zhushui naturally also knew about this, but he looked very calm after understanding the situation: "Then go and have a look, there should be something special about that house that you haven't noticed."
Lin Jue said hello, and the group hurried back to City S again.
Compared with a few months ago, Jiang Xutao's mental state seemed much better. Although he still looked sad because of his daughter's situation, at least there were no traces of bruising on his body, and he would not be troubled by fear.
When he saw Lin Zhushui, he was overjoyed and called Mr. Lin several times.
"Where's your daughter?" Lin Zhushui cut to the chase.
"In the house." Jiang Xutao said, "She's not in a good state of mind..."
"Just take me there." Lin Zhushui was straightforward.
Jiang Xutao nodded, and saw Zhou Jiayu standing behind Lin Zhushui again. He hesitated for a moment, then whispered: "You can come over too, my little girl really likes the paper crane you gave me earlier."
Zhou Jiayu nodded flattered.
Then the two followed Jiang Xutao into the room and saw Yaya in the corner of the room.
Compared with a few months ago, Yaya looks a little thinner, her originally fair and round face has become a pointed chin.She sat silently in a corner of the room, holding the doll in her arms, and sat with her head bowed.
"Ya Ya." Jiang Xutao called softly.
Yaya raised her head and saw Zhou Jiayu and Lin Zhushui. After seeing the two, her expression didn't change in any way, and she lowered her head again.
"Yaya." Jiang Xutao said, "Can you tell me something, uncle can help you solve it..."
Ya Ya didn't speak.
Jiang Xutao spoke a few more words of persuasion, and just when Zhou Jiayu thought she would be silent until the end, Yaya slowly opened her mouth, and she said, "They want to find something."
"Something?" Jiang Xutao asked suspiciously, "What?"
Yaya shook her head: "I don't know, I just know it's a black box buried under the house."
"The black box?" Jiang Xutao was confused, "Who are they..." He wanted to ask again, but was stopped by Lin Zhushui.
"Take us directly to the ruins of the house." Lin Zhushui said.
Jiang Xutao hesitated for a while, but agreed to Lin Zhushui's proposal, picked up Yaya, and went to the ruins.
On the way there, Ya Ya didn't speak the whole time, her expression looked neither fearful nor expectant, but a little numb.
Looking at her like this, Zhou Jiayu felt slightly worried.
The area of the villa has been sealed off since the accident, but Jiang Xutao should have a relationship with the police, so he went in after hitting someone.
The bone house villa has been demolished, leaving only ruins. Among the ruins, Ya Ya seems to be attracted by something, and wants to go to the center again.But Jiang Xutao was afraid that she would be hurt, so he kept holding her and didn't let go.
"There's something, there's something down there." Yaya yelled, trying to break free from Jiang Xutao's arms.
Hearing this, Lin Zhushui walked forward slowly, and came to a piece of mud that had been turned over. He picked up a steel bar next to him and started digging the soil. Zhou Jiayu and Shen Yiqiong hurried over to help when they saw it.
The soil is a bit hard, and it takes a lot of effort to dig it, even for a few big men.
While they were digging, Yaya was watching expectantly, with an excited expression on his face.
Half an hour later, several people were sweating a little. Zhou Jiayu took out a tissue and wiped Lin Zhushui's forehead and temples naturally.
Shen Yiqiong looked at Zhou Jiayu anxiously, but Zhou Jiayu ruthlessly rejected him: "Come by yourself."
Shen Yiqiong showed resentment, saying that you have changed.
Zhou Jiayu said I was crooked.
Shen Yiqiong: "..."
They had already dug a bit deep, if Lin Zhushui hadn't chosen this place, Zhou Jiayu might have suspected that he had dug in the wrong place.After digging for more than ten minutes, they finally found something. Zhou Jiayu touched a hard object, and he said, "There is something!"
After digging down for a while, an exquisite small iron box appeared in front of everyone.
"The box—" Zhou Jiayu quickly dug out the iron box from the soil, thinking that this was what Yaya was looking for.
There is a small lock hanging on the iron box. Judging from the rust marks on the outside, it has been a few years.
Zhou Jiayu wiped off the stains on the iron box with paper, picked it up and shook it up and down: "It's not heavy...what's inside?"
"Let me take a look." Lin Jue said, "This lock is specially made, and without a key, it will probably have to be removed violently, but will there be any dangerous items inside, so it's okay to just remove it like this?"
Lin Zhushui spat out a word: "Demolition."
So everyone took the iron box and went back to the house directly, and after finding the tools, they began to remove the lock.Lin Jue came for this job. From the time he went to school, Zhou Jiayu found that Lin Jue was quite good at picking locks, and he didn't know when he learned this skill.
After the box was dug out, Yaya's mood became very calm, and she didn't take her eyes off the box for a moment.
The lock on the box was really troublesome. Lin Jue worked on it for about an hour or two. When everyone was a little tired, they heard a light click, and the small lock on it fell to the ground—the box opened.
"It's open." Lin Jue said in surprise.
The box was moved away, and everyone gathered around, curious about the contents of the box.
Lin Jue lifted the lid of the box and saw the contents of the iron box. After seeing clearly what was inside, she was a little surprised: "This is... a photo frame?"
It was indeed an upside-down photo frame. Lin Jue reached out to pick it up, turned it over, and let everyone see the details of the photo frame clearly.
There is an old black and white photo inlaid in the photo frame. The photo is a family portrait of a family of three.A seven or eight-year-old boy stood in the middle and showed a bright smile. On the left and right, he was holding his father and mother, and the taste of happiness could be seen from their expressions.
It's just that the photos are too old and out of shape. Zhou Jiayu always feels that the people in the photos look a little ghostly and full of uncomfortable feelings.Especially the parents standing on both sides, their faces were stained with faint black spots.
"This is..." Lin Jue's expression was a bit complicated, "The first owner of the villa?"
"It seems so." Zhou Jiayu said, "But didn't they always say that only couples live in this house? Why is there another child..."
The room was very quiet, and no one answered Zhou Jiayu's question, but Ya Ya, who was hugged by Jiang Xutao, showed a bright smile at this moment.
The author has something to say: Xiaozhi’s stomach will swell after eating, it’s just a round bulge, it’s soft when you poke it, and it will move your hand away in displeasure after a few more pokes.The flat ones can also be worn with clothes. They can be attached to the body, or they can be made by sticking two pieces of paper together and then slipped over the head.But Xiaozhi is a boy, and he will get a little emotional if he wears a small skirt.
