As soon as Bairan entered the office, before he went upstairs to his office, he saw the client on the bench he had placed on the side of the hall for people to rest while waiting.She is not very old, just 20 years old, and she is at the age when she should enjoy life the most.As I remembered, she was sitting in the corner, quietly.The ordinary shirt and the A-line skirt that almost reached her knees made her look unobtrusive, and she would definitely not be found if she was wandering in the shopping mall.Seriously, it all adds up to a bit of distress.

Bairan hurried over and patted her on the shoulder. "Sorry, I'm late. Have you been waiting for a long time?"

The woman felt that someone was patting her on the shoulder, and first she dodged backward reflexively. The whole person shrank in the corner of the bench with a frightened look on her face.When she saw that the person standing next to her was Bairan, she was a little embarrassed, and quickly got up to explain that she had just arrived here and hadn't waited for a long time.He also apologized for the violent reaction just now.

Bairan waved his hand, motioned to the assistant in the office to make two cups of coffee, and brought the cautious woman into his office.Everything was as it was remembered.When the original client of the body was still alive, he saw the girl's expression for the first time. In fact, he was quite puzzled. How did a person with such a sensitive spirit live until now.But now Bairan, who still had memories of the past, felt more sympathy for this woman.

This woman is called Shiyue. When she was just born, her parents abandoned her to emigrate abroad in order to avoid debts. She has been silent since then. It was her distant cousin who was more than 20 years older than her who adopted her. The girl was very bored and always took the opportunity to take out her anger on her sister.My sister's husband is a hopeless alcoholic. Every time he finishes drinking, he will come home drunk, beat and kick her and her sister, blame her for buying such a "losing money" at home, and scold her for not paying attention. don't die.

But every time her brother-in-law sobered up, she ran over to apologize to her sister and Shiyue with a look of enlightenment, saying that she just drank too much, and she still loved this family deeply from the bottom of her heart, and promised never to do so again. drink wine.But this kind of words is like a promise casually uttered by children when they play house, that after two or three days, they will see their brother-in-law come back smelling of alcohol.

Such days continued for ten years until October 19th.My sister sent her to a university far away to study with her modest salary, and wanted her to become a talent.Shi Yue respected such a woman who was both her sister and her adoptive mother, so she devoted herself to the university, and only went home once a month or two to visit her sister before leaving in a hurry.

Because she was often abused and beaten by her brother-in-law when she was young, October was very afraid of people approaching her or making some simple physical contact, which made her a strange alternative in college, but she didn't care at all.I just want to find a job that suits me after graduating from here, establish a foothold in a big city, and take my sister to live with me when the time comes.

During the previous small holiday, she bought some fresh meat as usual and went home to visit her sister.But there was no one in the house, and there was no sign of my sister, not even the man who idled around all day and relied on his sister's salary to live was not at home.At first Shi Yue simply thought that her sister had gone to work, so she waited patiently, but no one came back until late at night.No matter how many times she dialed her sister's cell phone, it still showed that she couldn't connect, which made Shi Yue panic.I ran out of the house and looked for neighbors and friends who were familiar with my sister, but to no avail.She asked for a long vacation from the school, and has been searching here, looking for...

Up to now, her sister and brother-in-law have been missing for nearly half a month, and there is no movement when they report to the police. Forced to help, October can only come to seek help from Bairan, who is quite famous in the whole circle. She cried and said It doesn't matter how much money it is, as long as I can find my sister back, I will find a way to pay even if it is millions of rewards.

Maybe it was the first time Bairan saw this woman crying and made up his mind to help her find her missing sister.It wasn't because she suddenly burst out with overwhelming sympathy, how many people came to ask her for help in similar cases before, but Bai Ran flatly refused.It's just that she never felt that seeing a woman crying so sad would even touch her own emotions, so she wanted to reach out and take care of this business.Take care of things that have never mentioned your interest before.

The prayer in October this time was exactly the same as the prayer the original client had heard before his death. Bairan handed her a few tissues and motioned her to wipe away the tears on her face.

"As you said, your sister's disappearance is very overwhelming. But don't worry, I will help you. I will talk about the remuneration and the like after everything is over. Can you please send your sister's personal information Can you tell me your home address? I want to go and find out for myself now."

After hearing Bairan's answer, Shiyue was full of gratitude, and she was almost speechless with excitement. She, who was not good at getting in touch with people, directly grabbed Bairan's palm and said that she could take her now. past.Seeing her reaction as if someone had arranged a miracle, Sun Wanqing seemed to understand why that Bairan was still thinking about this case until the end of his life.What is contained in it may not only be the things that are exclusive to her professional pride, but more, it may be the 'humanity' that appeared inadvertently and filled her heart.

Rarely, Bairan brought out her car from the garage, let Shiyue take the co-pilot as a human navigator, and then she drove towards a small road that she rarely went to.The further he walked, the more surprised Bairan became.In a city like M City, where I have lived and lived for nearly 30 years, there is actually such a remote path that I never knew about.

According to the meaning of October, driving through the gaps of several old buildings, the open road suddenly opened up in front of me.Surrounded by dilapidated small restaurants, convenience stores, and unlicensed hotels.This even made Bairan wonder if he had driven out of M city and turned into some remote economically underdeveloped place.If it wasn't for the 'chocolate' that can increase your own force value just bought from [-], maybe Bairan really didn't have the guts to drive in it...

"Here we are, that's the one." The co-pilot Shi Yue whispered, pointing his finger at a small residential building next to the mahjong parlor. "It's on the third floor, the one on the left."

"There's no one at home right now, right?" Bairan asked, looking around at the same time, looking for a suitable parking spot.Her question made Shi Yue's eyes darken when Bairan agreed to help her, who was still agitated.She bit her lip and nodded slightly.

"At home... there is no one left..."

Looks like it touched on October's heartbreak.Bairan couldn't help feeling guilty, she gently touched Shi Yue's head.

"It's okay, I will find it for you. You go up first, I will find you after I park the car, I want to see your sister's things."

"En, good." Shi Yue nodded obediently, opened the door and got out of the car.Watching her run up the stairs in three steps at a time, Bairan took out a lady's cigarette from his coat pocket, lit it, and put it in his mouth.

The harsh sound of the wheels rubbing against the concrete floor as they turned reminded her of some information found by the original owner of the body before his death.Although I really don't want to think about it in that direction now, but one day I will tell October what she is eager to know.Even if that fact would break her down, make her despair, and make her question everything she saw... Bairan pulled out the car key, and breathed out a shallow puff of smoke.The faint mint flavor makes people think more clearly.October opened the window of the house and was waving at Bairan.Looking at October like this, Bairan was even a little speechless, how would he tell her in the future.

Just like her biological parents.

I don't know if it's coercion, or persuasion.The day before she went home, her brother-in-law went through the passport and all check-in procedures, and bought two tickets to a certain European country.Leaving October behind, she left with her sister in October.

The information found at the last moment of Bairan's life was the surveillance screenshots sent by the airport staff and the two registration records.

Bairan put out the cigarette, opened the door and got out of the car, and walked towards Shi Yue's home.Logically speaking, knowing the truth, the most important thing for Bairan to do is to stay away from this unavoidable event.But she used the only soul she had to do it all over again.Only for this point, Sun Wanqing would rather believe that even though he has passed away, there are more good people in the world he once lived in, who are willing to give his meager strength for others.

October's home is small, but it is very tidy.There is a small photo frame on the table in the corner. The photo frame seems to have been pressed hard on the table. The glass on the surface is a little cracked. It was glued with scotch tape and stood there again.Among them, is a group photo of October and her sister.

Bairan took a picture of sister Shiyue with her mobile phone.

"Don't worry, the next thing can be left to me."

"Eh? Just... a photo? Don't you need anything else?" Shi Yue was a little puzzled. If it was just a photo, you could ask yourself even in the office. Why did you follow him? return.

Bairan saw Shi Yue's doubts, she smiled slightly, and put the photo frame back.

"That's because I have to come here for a reason."

In my dream, I need to record everything here.
