After Xie Ran returned to the room, he dug out the things about the original owner in the cabinet under the computer desk.When he first passed through, he looked carefully, and found no other useful clues, so he put these things aside.But through the communication with Dr. Wang today, he felt that he might have missed something.

During this conversation, he noticed that Dr. Wang paid attention to people.

How old was the original owner when the accident happened?When I was a child, the original owner didn't live in the Xie's villa, but in the Xie's old house.If you mentioned people the original owner knew, they were actually adults who you often saw when you were young, or playmates like neighbors and classmates.

There must be such a person in the details that Dr. Wang knew, and it was an important reason for the original owner to have this accident.

There are quite a lot of things left by the original owner, but there are very few things like diaries.Most of them are small bits and pieces, the only thing that is a little special is a notebook.This book was packed by Xie Ran on the table at the time, and the room was in a mess after passing through the book, and this book was placed on the computer desktop.

At that time, Xie Ran probably looked through it, and there were some scattered records, which looked like a draft book.

There is a simple calculation process, and there are certain game props.But looking through this book now, Xie Ran feels that the cover is a bit old.

In Xie Ran's impression, he had seen this type of notebook before at the small shop in front of the school. The cover was cardboard, and the inside was bezoar paper.

It is used as a draft book, which actually destroys the beauty of this book.He flipped through the book carefully, and suddenly found a detail that he hadn't noticed before.The records in this book are very scattered, some pages only write two calculation processes, and some pages are full.

But basically there are things written from beginning to end, and it is a draft book that should have been used up.

He turned to the page that he had an impression of before, and saw that there were several items in the game written on it, and the corresponding game price was written on the back.

Turn a few pages later, some write about today's breakfast, and some write some nonsensical words.

Xie Ran frowned and flipped through carefully, and suddenly realized an ingenious change, this book was written from the back to the front, and the characters at the back became more immature.

The original owner's handwriting was a bit scribbled, but the shape of the characters could be seen clearly, and at first glance it was somewhat similar to his handwriting.

And the handwriting on the last side actually looks a bit like a child's handwriting.

knock --

There was a knock on the door.

"Ran Ran." Xie Mu's voice sounded, "Your Tang

Brother is here, do you want to meet him? "

Xie Ran's hand flipping the draft book paused slightly, cousin?

He couldn't remember who this person was for a while, but after careful deliberation based on the relationship, the elder Xie's family and his father were only Uncle Xie, so this cousin should be Uncle Xie's child.

Xie Ran opened the door all at once, and looked at Xie Mu with a little doubt on his face.

Mother Xie was a little surprised outside, she seemed a little confused when she saw him, and explained: "It's your little brother, didn't you like to play with him before? Didn't you see him for a few years and you forgot him? "

After she finished speaking, she added: "He just came back from other places, and then he turned around to see you."

Is there such a character in the plot of the original book?There are too few plot introductions about the original owner's family relationship, some things Xie Ran can only guess the plot based on clues and possible development routines of normal novels.However, what happened to the Xue family earlier, the Second Uncle Xie's family must have been in contact with the Xue family... and the original owner used to play with this person often?

Xie Ran felt that it would be unreasonable if there was no relationship behind it.

Seeing Xie Ran like this, Xie's mother probably wanted to go down and have a look, so she told Xie Ran about his cousin's situation in the past few years while walking.

My cousin is called Xie He, who is two years younger than Xie Shiqing. He graduated from Yunfeng branch to practice.

"You haven't seen him for many years, right?" Mother Xie thought about something, "When you lived in the old house, you often went to your second uncle's house to play."

Xie Ran carefully recalled the Xie family's old house, it seems that this is the case, I can't remember clearly.

He followed Mother Xie to the living room downstairs, and saw a young man in casual clothes.

The young man is sitting on the sofa, with his hands on his lap, looking down and playing with his mobile phone. Looking from the side, he gives a very relaxed feeling.

Seeing him coming down, the man raised his head to look over, happened to meet Xie Ran's eyes, he smiled kindly, "Ran Ran."

Mother Xie took Xie Ran and sat down on the other side, "It's been a while since I haven't seen you."

"I haven't seen Ran Ran for a while." Xie He said with a smile.

Xie's mother chatted with Xie He soon.Xie He is very talkative. In the seemingly ordinary conversation, he has always been in charge of the topic. First, he talked about the situation of Xie's family, and then introduced his experience of working in other places over the years.

Seeing this person for the first time, Xie Ran had an inexplicable feeling.Xie Hetian has a kind face, which makes people not have the slightest doubt

He has a heart, and his speech is also polite, and there is no thorn in his words and deeds.But because he had worries first, the more kind this cousin was, the more inexplicable feeling Xie Ran felt in his heart.

"Where is Ran Ran, have you been feeling better recently?" Xie He cast his gaze with a kind smile on his face.

Xie Ran was suddenly cueed, thinking to himself, if this person is really a sinister, how deep must his thoughts be?Xie Shiqing's aura matched his own aura, making it difficult to deal with at first glance.But Xie He gave other people the impression that he was the kind of college student who had just entered the society with a slightly immature face.

With a calm face, he replied, [It's okay. 】

Xie He nodded slightly, "I haven't seen Ran Ran for many years, and it seems to be more grown-up than before."

Xie Mu's face was soft, "I'm still a child. When I played behind you, I was not as tall as my waist now. In the blink of an eye, I've grown into an adult."

"I remember that Ran Ran's birthday is in June, right?" Xie He said, "Is there a coming-of-age ceremony?"

Xie's mother is also preparing for this matter recently. A few years ago when Xie Ran celebrated his birthday, they sometimes took time to come back, but within two days they had to leave because of work.This year's birthday is such a critical period of adulthood, half a month earlier Xie's mother was preparing for various things, but for inviting guests, she still wanted to ask Xie Ran's opinion.

"Still preparing." Mother Xie looked at Xie Ran, "Let Ranan make the decision on these matters."

Xie Ran was a little surprised when he heard the coming-of-age ceremony, mainly because it was no different before, it was just a transition from a minor to an adult, and there was no need for a birthday.But in a family like the Xie family, it seems to be especially important.

"I remember you were still in China when you were Brother Shi Qing." Xie He said suddenly, but his eyes casually glanced at Xie Ran.

Xie Mu smiled, "That was a long time ago, many years have passed, right?"

Xie Shiqing?

Xie Ran remembers that his elder brother is 27 or 28 this year?One round faster than him.The difference in age between the two brothers of the Xie family is big enough. Calculated from this, it seems that Xie Ran was about ten years old when the accident happened, and it was about the time when Xie Shiqing became an adult, right?

Xie's parents went abroad for work, and Xie Shiqing's young Ji Qingwei started to get in touch with domestic work and business. During that time, Xie Ran still lived in the old house at first, and later moved to the current residence for the convenience of Xie Shiqing's work. come to this place.

Xie Ran still had doubts in his heart when he heard that, why did Xie He suddenly talk about Xie Shiqing?

Xie He

Nodding, "It's been quite a few years. By the way, why don't you go back to live in the old house these days after you return to China?"

Xie Mu, "Ran Ran is used to living here. Although the place is a bit small, it is more convenient to get in and out."

Xie Ran was not interested halfway through hearing it, and seeing that the two of them didn't bring the topic to him, he got up and went to the yard to see what the fried chicken was doing.

The housekeeper was trimming flowers and plants in the yard, and the fried chicken ran left and right at his feet, full of energy, and he and himself could have fun.

Behind him was the sound of mother Xie talking to Xie He.Xie Ran opened the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked at the fried chicken running in the yard, but his ears were always paying attention to Xie He's words behind him.Come to visit at this time, is it really just a small talk?

How close is Uncle Xie's family to the previous Xue family?

Is it that simple for Xie He to come to your door?Xie Ran still doesn't trust other people, especially Uncle Xie's family who has some relationship with Xue's family.Now the Xue family seems to be too busy to take care of themselves. If there is any relationship between the two families, Xie He may come to the door at this time to ask for something else.

Xie Ran is not worried about Xie Mu. This lady has made great achievements in her work and looks easy to talk to, but she is not something to be underestimated from the housekeeper's few words.

He spent some time with Xie's mother, and saw that Xie's current state was still somewhat different from the usual state of relaxed communication.The other three members of the Xie family are also sensible people. Right now, the two are talking and laughing, maybe they have some thoughts behind their backs.

Fried Chicken ran to the French window and wagged its tail excitedly towards Xie Ran.

Xie Ran came back to his senses.

Forget it, the attitude of the rest of the Xie family towards Xie He is not something he should worry about.

--

Seeing Xie Ran walking to the other side, Mother Xie said with a little nostalgia, "Ran Ran liked to run behind you in the old house when I was a child, but now that I grow up, it is much quieter. When I first went abroad a few years ago , He is also very happy when you come to the house occasionally."

Xie He smiled, "After all, I was a child when I was a child. You see, I have grown up, and I am almost at the age of independence. Some things are definitely different from when I was a child, but this time I come here, I feel like I am burning. A lot has changed."

"Compared to before, Ranran is much calmer."

"Grow up." Xie's mother didn't want to mention Xie Ran's suicide, she didn't want outsiders to look at Xie Ran with strange feelings, "Just like you said just now, the child has grown up. By the way, little And, how long do you plan to stay in City S this time, do you plan to work here or return to your original position?"

Xie He, "My father wants me to stay on the side of City S."

Mother Xie nodded, "It's fine here, and I can take care of it at home."
