to comfort the sun

In the mountains in April, the night wind is cool, probably because the temperature has risen recently, the insects at night are louder than usual.

Wang Guowei's home is in the east of the village. It is a refurbished old house. There is a small open-air courtyard where he grows some vegetables and raises a few chickens. Wang Guowei directly invites other people to be guests, but Sun Fuzhou insists on going home and changing clothes. go again.

When passing by Wang Qinqin's house, the inside was still empty, presumably her family had already gotten the news and rushed over directly from the county.

Sun Fuzhou changed out of his sportswear, casually put on a loose vest and went out.

I don't know what kind of battle Wang Guowei wants to set up with them. I guess he wants to find out their details, or at least he wants to make friends.

Sun Fuzhou speculated about countless possibilities in his mind, until he arrived at Wang Guowei's house, and happened to meet Shen Yuan who was smoking at the door.

There are voices of children and adults in the room, which is very lively.

Shen Yuan leaned under the big banyan tree at the door without any image, as lazy as he could be, he stood up straight when he saw Sun Fuzhou: "...Why are you wearing my clothes?"

Sun Fuzhou looked down at the clothes on his body. When he took them, he just pulled one on the clothesline, and put it on without looking carefully. It's too lazy to score black and white ash together.

He asked back, "Would you be reluctant to wear a dress?"

Shen Yuan seemed to sigh lightly, but looking at his unmoving eyes, one would feel that it was just an illusion.

Shen Yuan said: "You misunderstood... wait until I finish smoking before going in together."

"……it is good."

The scene of Shen Yuan leaning against the banyan tree smoking a cigarette alone reminded Sun Fuzhou of their reunion a few months ago, Shen Yuan is now hiding under the street tree to hide from the cold wind and light a cigarette.

Old smoking gun.

Sun Fuzhou said coolly: "Tomorrow, you remember to fill in my name as the beneficiary of the insurance."

Shen Yuan: "Huh?"

"Save it for your coffin."

Shen Yuan put out sparks on the big banyan tree, and asked with a half-smile: "What will you do if I die?"

Sun Fuzhou pushed away his suddenly approaching body, and walked into the yard.

"I'll find another one after you die."

The smell of hot pot has long been wafting from the house, but the atmosphere in the house is not as hot as the smell of hot pot, especially after Sun Fuzhou pushed the door and entered, the air seemed to freeze.

It was Wang Guowei who was the first to react, and stepped forward to hold him back: "Here we come, sit down!"

Sun Fuzhou let himself be pulled to the position next to Wang Guowei.

This big round table happened to be full, except for the three of them, the rest should be Wang Guowei's family - his wife, his two daughters, and a pair of old parents.

Wang Guowei rubbed his hands: "Oh, I don't know what the name of the little brother is?"

Sun Fuzhou stared at his oil-shaven face, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, my ears are hurt and I can't hear. If you have any questions, please ask my colleague Xiaoqiu...Xiaoqiu."

Qiu Yun met his gaze blankly, and nodded obediently after a while.

Shen Yuan said at this time: "Brother Wang, you can ask me, I am good friends with him."

Sun Fuzhou and Qiu Yunqi glanced over, not understanding what this man was messing with.

Shen Yuan said: "They are the poverty alleviation investigation team sent by the government. This is Police Officer Sun. Unfortunately, something happened before he left."

Wang Guowei suddenly said: "Oh, so it is like this."

The soup in the copper pot was gurgling and boiling, except for Wang Guowei who was talking to himself all the time, and everyone ate their own food, the atmosphere was harmonious.

Sun Fuzhou pretended to be deaf as a matter of course, and Wang Guowei's family left after eating and drinking, so Wang Guowei tried to talk to Qiu Yun, focusing on bringing the topic to their work.

So Qiu Yun had to say: "Village Chief, we are not allowed to disclose the content of our work for the time being, so don't embarrass us."

Shen Yuan said: "Xiaoqiu, what's wrong with this? Brother Wang is the head of a village. Before you investigate, you should communicate with Brother Wang, right?"

"I..." Qiu Yun hesitated, "...Actually, it's nothing, just go door-to-door in the village and do some research and report back."

This would give him an excuse to investigate Wang Li's affairs in the village.

When returning home, Wang Guowei insisted on sending several people to the intersection, and the posture was as grand as sending off the emperor's relatives.

Because of what happened during the day, Sun Fuzhou didn't want to talk to Shen Yuan, and the latter also had good insight and didn't say anything.

"Xiaoqiu, come with me to Wang Li's house tomorrow."

"Ah? Oh..."

Qiu Yun sneaked a hesitant glance at Shen Yuan.

From beginning to end, Shen Yuan stayed outside like an outsider.

Of course, except that they just contributed to the flames at the dinner table intentionally or unintentionally.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Yuan yawned and walked between the two of them: "I'm tired today, let's rest early."

Tired you big dick.

Sun Fuzhou stripped off his clothes and walked into the bedroom without even looking at him.

There was no dream all night, until when he woke up in the morning, he found that Shen Yuan was no longer by his side, and there was even some warmth on the bed sheets, presumably it hadn't been long since he left.

"Sun... Deputy Sun, are you awake? I was going to call you, Wang Li and her family are back."

Immediately afterwards, Qiu Yun pushed the door open and entered in such a hurry that Sun Fuzhou was startled.

"Ah, where is Shen Yuan?"

"Oh, he just left. I just found out that he brought back a bottle of wine yesterday. It's quite expensive. He said it was for you."

Sun Fuzhou got up slowly, walked to the living room and found the bottle of wine in Qiu Yun's mouth, the thousands of Maotai was placed on the floor.

Qiu Yun teased: "It's interesting that you give gifts. Last time it was a skeleton, this time it was wine. What else did he give?"

Sun Fuzhou shot back with a shudder: "Shut up, I'm so annoying."

He didn't even touch the bottle of wine, and said to Qiu Yun, "Clean up and go to Wang Li's house as soon as possible."

It is said that Wang Li's parents came back by the first bus in the morning. They had a face-to-face meeting with Qiu as soon as they got home, and their faces were very bad.

As soon as the two went out, Qiu Yun caught a glimpse of a dark figure nestled under a plastic shed not far away.

"Tsk, that fool is there again."

Sun Fuzhou looked over, and saw that the dirty man was wolfing down the food in his hands—even though it was only half a dusty steamed bun.

"Whether that's really stupid is debatable."

When Sun Fuzhou knocked on the wooden door of Wang Li's house, it happened that Wang Li's mother was out to throw out the trash.

As Qiu Yun said, her face was pale, and the two bags under the eyes of the woman's face were hanging from the corners of her mouth: "Who are you?"

Qiu Yun said: "We will live behind you and come to investigate the living conditions of poor families in the village."

The Queen Mother sighed, and opened the door listlessly to let them in: "Is there any money for this investigation?"

"We'll only find out after investigation." Qiu Yun began to talk nonsense, "I'm not sure about the payment from the higher ups."

Hearing this, the Queen Mother's face became lifeless at all.

... None of these officials are reliable.

Qiu Yun asked: "Are you short of money?"

"Who is not short of money?" the Queen Mother said, "There are several people in our family. Yesterday, my mother-in-law just entered the hospital, and it cost a lot of money to treat her illness. Today, my daughter is gone. If the murderer can't be found, my girl will be in vain. died!"

When Father Wang came out of the house, he heard his mother-in-law crying and talking about his family affairs.

"Say a few words less! Your mouth is so long!"

"A sin!"

The Queen Mother glared at him angrily and went back to her room by herself.

"I'm sorry, I just laughed." Father Wang walked up to the two of them, "Hey, you were the one that day..."

Sun Fuzhou said: "We are from the Urban and Rural Poverty Alleviation Investigation Team. I was the one who brought your daughter back yesterday."

The prince shook his head melancholy: "Oh, it's you, I don't know who Lily offended..."

After Qiu Yun asked some questions about the family's financial situation as usual, he began to insinuate Wang Li's case.

However, Wang Li's parents have been working outside the country all year round, so they have basically never gotten along with their children, let alone know anything about them.

Therefore, in Wang Li's daily life, Wang's father didn't know anything about it.

Sun Fuzhou wrote a line in the notebook, and Qiu Yun asked accordingly: "Did you go to identify the body yesterday? What did the police say?"

"The policeman said that he might have drowned, and the others are still being investigated." Father Wang wiped his tears as he said, "I don't know when we will find out. We will go back to work in the city soon..."

Sun Fuzhou's cognition was once again refreshed by the efficiency of the police station in the county.

It seems that they can only put pressure on them.

At this time, the Queen Mother strolled out again: "It's not once or twice that the river in our village drowned a little girl. Let me see, if I can't find out how she died, can the higher-ups issue some pensions?"

Father Wang's face turned pale, and he hurriedly waved her away: "Go, go, don't talk nonsense here!"

The Queen Mother said sarcastically: "Why am I talking nonsense? I have drowned several times! Is there any problem with the country sending some money for relief? You don't want me to say it, but I want to say it!"

In the end, the prince's father kept urging and driving people into the house with a dark face, only to hear the husband and wife arguing vaguely in the room for a long time before they calmed down.

Father Wang came out covering his face, with a few fingernail marks on his face.

He smiled awkwardly at Sun Fuzhou and the two, and quickly changed the topic to cover up the embarrassment.

"Don't mind, she has a bad mind." Father Wang said, "Oh, by the way, why didn't a young man stay with you yesterday, I haven't thanked you yet!"

Qiu Yun didn't see Sun Fuzhou's reminder written in the notebook, so he could only bite the bullet and explain: "He... he has something to do, so he went out."

"Is that so..." Father Wang pondered for a moment, "It was only today that I remembered that I knew the young man's parents, and their family's affairs were quite a trouble in the village, no wonder I felt kind when I saw him."

"What's the matter with their family?"

This question was asked by Qiu Yun.

"It's just that his parents took drugs and owed debts. The debt collectors came to demolish the house, and not long after his parents died, he followed his grandfather to go to school while paying off the debt. However, his grandfather is not in good health, so he relies on a few-year-old children to support the family, and we all said at the time that they would not live long."

Qiu Yun listened very enthusiastically: "There is such a thing?"

Perhaps because he thought it was not good to talk about others like this, Father Wang restrained his tone a bit: "It's just that I didn't expect to grow up so much after such a long time——Actually, it's no wonder that this child can bear it since he was a child. Hui never cried, and it has been more than a week since she was born, and there are still many people in the village who don't know about it."

Going further and further.

Father Wang talked about a bunch of messy past events, and felt that Sun Fuzhou had finally confused him, so he sent the two of them out.

Unexpectedly, investigating the case turned into listening to gossip, Qiu Yun pulled back the thoughts of being led astray, and was about to speak when he heard Sun Fuzhou say.

"Shen Yuan is really a strange thing."

He paused, "Crying children have candy to eat. When I was born, I cried all day and all night."

"He deserves to be so miserable."
