Five years of broken mirror, three years of reunion

Pressing his hand and shaking his head: "I tried, it didn't work, this may not be a phone call."

Yu Fei tilted his head and looked at it for a while, but still couldn't draw any conclusions.

When the two were at a loss, the security guard who had talked to Wei Qiusui came to them.He looked at Wei Qiusui and then at Yu Fei, and said strangely, "I told you just now that the residents here have moved away, why are they still here?"

"Let's go." Yu Fei quickly smiled and gave him a cigarette, "I'm sorry."

"You misunderstood, I didn't drive you away." The security guard said, "I just saw you standing here for so long, and thought you had any difficulties." He took a sip from his thermos cup and said slowly, "This There is a mental patient living in the building, you two strangers have been standing here for a long time, if she sees it, she will call upstairs, it is very disturbing."

"Crazy?" Yu Fei blinked and took a puff of cigarette, "What do you mean?"

"Here, look upstairs." The security guard turned his mouth upwards, and Yu Fei and Wei Qiusui looked up together. Among the windows of this old-fashioned house, only one family had a window sill that looked like an iron fence.Yu Fei turned his head slightly, and saw an invisible hand firmly grasping the bottom of the iron fence.

"..." Yu Fei was stunned for a moment, then he slapped Wei Qiusui with his shoulder, "What is that?!"

"There is a person lying on the window." Wei Qiusui also saw it.

"It's that neurosis." The security guard took another sip of the water in the thermos, and his face was full of surprises. "A little girl, she is very shy of strangers. She is in her twenties. She didn't expect to have a brain problem. I am here too. It’s been more than ten years. I watched her grow up. She seemed to have changed suddenly during high school. People around her said she was bewitched. After the demolition, the neighbors of this building moved quickly, and they were also like his family. The crazy daughter has something to do with it."

Wei Qiusui stared at the windowsill for a while, then asked the security guard, "Where are her parents?"

"There is only one father, and he treats her very well, but if he leaves early and returns late, he can only lock her at home," the security guard said.

Yu Fei and Wei Qiusui looked at each other, Yu Fei whispered: "I want to go up and see this little girl."

"Why?" Wei Qiusui asked.

"...Intuition." After Yu Fei said that, he looked at the window from a distance, as if he was looking into the eyes behind him through the heavy fence.

38.【38】

Yu Fei doesn't think his intuition is a very accurate tool for solving crimes.

But he just felt that there might be some unexpected gains from the "crazy girl" who had never met upstairs.So he and Wei Qiusui entered the corridor one after the other after the security guard left.

Yu Fei walked into the corridor and saw that most of the residents had indeed left for a long time. The Spring Festival couplets at the door were still from the year six years ago, and the red color faded, leaving a mottled piece on the door.

"It's this one." Yu Fei leaned over to look at the house number. There were three pairs of shoes by the door, but they were all men's shoes.

He stepped forward and knocked on the door, and soon there was a rush of footsteps inside the door, but the people inside did not open the door.

Yu Fei put his ear to the iron door outside and listened carefully for a while, looked at Wei Qiusui, and mouthed: at, door, side.

Wei Qiusui gestured to him, signaling him to speak.

"Cough, hello!" Yu Fei cleared his throat, "Is anyone home?"

There was still no movement inside the door.

"Hello, is there anyone, I..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door inside the iron gate opened a small gap, and in the gap, a very short girl was looking up at them.Using the light, Yu Fei could see that her whole figure was like a girl who had just grown up, not at all like the girl in her twenties that the security guard said.

"Hello?" Yu Fei squatted down slightly, showing that he wanted to get close to her and told her not to be on guard against him as much as possible, "Do you live here alone?"

The girl didn't speak, and Yu Fei saw tears welling up in her eyes, which were shining brightly.He froze for a moment, then quickly waved his hands: "You, don't cry..."

"We don't open the door. If you feel scared, you can close the door." Yu Fei said patiently, "I just want to ask you something..."

The girl stood in the door shivering, holding on to the door frame with one hand, tears in her eyes.Yu Fei took two steps back silently, and said, "Don't be afraid, where is your father...?"

"..." The girl's eyes widened suddenly, her mouth opened slightly, her jaw was trembling, and then she suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream.

"what------"

There was a sound like fingernails scratching the frosted glass, Yu Fei straightened up and took two steps back in shock, he was already leaning against the wall beside the corridor, unable to retreat.

At the same time, the girl's voice quickly stopped, and there was a short echo in the empty corridor.

"She is afraid of strangers, and she is scaring them away in this way." Wei Qiusui said beside him.

Yu Fei swallowed his saliva and walked beside him: "Didn't it mean that her father treated her very well? Why did she get such a big reaction when she heard the name? Could there be something else hidden?"

The girl screamed so loudly that no one in the corridor came out to see what happened.Wei Qiusui glanced at the phone and said in a low voice, "Her reaction to her father is too problematic."

"Let's not scare her yet." Yu Fei said, "My heart is about to jump out of her mouth."

To be on the safe side, the two decided to go downstairs first.When he got downstairs, Yu Fei felt that the girl's cry was indeed penetrating and powerful, which made him feel a little lingering fear now.Hastily touched a cigarette and came out to suppress the shock.

In the end, the cigarette didn't fight for it, it twirled in his hand and fell to the ground.

"Damn it." Yu Fei started rambling again, "The hand holding the cigarette... trembled slightly...huh?"

He kept picking up cigarettes.

"What's wrong?" Wei Qiusui looked down at him, Yu Fei slowly squatted down, raised his head, and made a gesture on his chest with his hand.

"The little girl just now, come to me." He slowly raised his hand, "It's almost at this height..."

As far as he could see, he panned two inches, and saw the mailbox of the household that had received the photo of the broken toe and had moved away five or six years ago.He looked sideways, and he had to go up a few floors before he could see the little girl's mailbox.

Wei Qiusui immediately understood what he meant: "You mean, this photo was stuffed wrongly in a hurry, and it was stuffed into the mailbox closest to me?"

"Yes!" Yu Fei straightened up.

"..." Wei Qiusui took out his mobile phone, "Come on, let's let her recognize the photo directly."

"...??" Yu Fei hurriedly tugged him, "Are you crazy? What should I do if she keeps barking again?"

"No time." Wei Qiusui shook his head, "Let's go upstairs."

Fortunately, the little girl didn't refuse to open the door for them because of what happened just now. Although her eyes were full of horror, she still stood by the door and stared at the two of them motionlessly.

Yu Fei grabbed Wei Qiusui's arm and said in a low voice: "If not, ordinary people might feel uncomfortable seeing this photo. You made her look really mentally abnormal..."

"No, I have to try." Wei Qiusui insisted, then reached out and put the photo on the phone screen in front of the girl, "Do you know this?"

"..." Yu Fei slapped himself on the forehead, ready to run away before the girl screamed.

However, he waited for a while, but the girl never responded.When he turned his head again, the girl had already opened the door a little wider. Yu Fei watched the girl staring at the screen of the phone without any expression on his face.

After a while, he looked up at Wei Qiusui, and suddenly said, "Wang... Wang... Xi..."

There was no reaction on Wei Qiusui's expression, but his expression became tense.The girl's voice was hoarse, obviously because she hadn't spoken for a long time, but she was able to say a coherent sentence soon: "Wang...Wang Xicai...Are you Wang Xicai..."

Wang Xicai?

When Yu Fei heard this name, he always felt that some memories in his brain were pulled out again.He frowned and thought about where he had heard the name "Wang Xicai".

Wei Qiusui was identified as "Wang Xicai", and he was not in a hurry to deny it. He just looked at the girl and tried to ask more questions: "Do you have any impression of this photo?"

The girl nodded, and looked Wei Qiusui up and down again: "You came to me... Why did you come to me? She's dead, she's already dead..."

Wei Qiusui bent down a little and narrowed his eyes: "Who is dead?"

"She's dead, she's dead." The girl repeated several times, making some desperate sounds from her throat.

At the same time, Yu Fei suddenly remembered who this "Wang Xicai" was.

……

Wei Qiusui and Yu Fei sat on the stairs of the corridor, hiding in the corner.

"My high school classmate, Wang Xicai." Yu Fei flipped through the class groups in WeChat and found this person, "After graduating from high school, I went to study abroad, and now I'm married and have children in Canada."

"High school classmate?" Wei Qiusui said, "Baijin No. [-] Middle School?"

"..." Yu Fei felt a little helpless about being involved with his work unit and alma mater, "If I believe it's a coincidence, some things make sense."

Wei Qiusui magnified the face on the photo with his hand, and after looking at it repeatedly, he came to the conclusion: "We are not alike, so this girl has never seen Wang Xicai in person."

"I'll try to contact him." Yu Fei looked at his phone, "But there is a [-]-hour time difference between Canada and here, so we may not be able to contact him temporarily."

Holding the phone in his hand, Yu Fei said, "She and Wang Xicai, maybe... netizen? Pen pal? A relationship like this, and for some reason, the photo was sent to Feng Guangyi's desk by mistake."

"Call the police first." Wei Qiusui said
