Not only did the other party's voice sound familiar, but he could also accurately report Gu Jing's name. Gu Tingxi listened to the beeping sound after hanging up the phone inexplicably.

He put down his phone and was about to talk to his brother about it, when he looked up and found that his brother was also on the phone.

Gu Siqian put the phone to his ear, silently listening to the voice on the other end of the phone, his eye sockets suddenly turned red, his pupils trembled unconsciously, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, his hands slowly clenched into fists, even though he was desperately biting Grinding his teeth, tears still flowed down his cheeks like rain, wet his clothes in an instant.

"Brother...what's the matter..." Gu Tingxi felt that his voice was full of tremors, and panic rushed to his face.

The phone fell from Gu Siqian's palm, he looked up at the ceiling, and said in a choked voice, "Dad passed away."

Gu Tingxi's ears were buzzing, and Gu Siqian's voice echoed in the tinnitus, becoming indistinct and indistinct.

He licked his dry lips and said with difficulty: "Brother, what are you talking about? I can't hear you clearly."

Gu Siqian wiped away tears with the back of his hand, sighed deeply and stepped forward to hug him, "Grandpa's phone call, Dad died in a car accident, and his body was sent to the old house."

What does it mean when a body is sent to an old house, shouldn't it be sent to the hospital in a car accident?Shouldn't the body be claimed by the family?

Gu Tingxi was held in his arms trembling all over, he shook his head vigorously, suddenly pushed Gu Siqian away, picked up the phone on the sofa and dialed back.

The empty mechanical female voice reminded him that the number was empty.

Gu Tingxi threw the phone out angrily, and the screen hit the corner of the table and shattered.

Gu Hanli hurriedly ordered Datou to drive.

The three of them drove back to City A overnight without any delay.

Gu Tingxi put his face on the car window, looking at the flickering lights outside the window, he felt extremely cold, even if the car was fully heated, he still felt the chill like ice water oozing from his bones.

Sitting in the front seat, Gu Siqian glanced at him through the rearview mirror, lowered his eyes and asked, "You answered a call just now, who called?"

Gu Tingxi pulled the zipper of the down jacket to the highest point, and his chin was almost retracted into the jacket. He closed his eyes, suppressed the indifference in his eyes, and said coldly: "The murderer."

Gu Siqian was stunned for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Dad was hit and killed by a car."

"No." Gu Tingxi slowly but firmly denied his words, "Dad was killed by someone."

He should have thought about it a long time ago. His father must have had a premonition for that ten-year-old dinner and that family portrait that he wanted to give him but was reluctant to give, so he ran back to see him for the last time in a panic. one side.

There are too many mysteries lingering around him, and whenever he is confused, different people will always give him a less-than-satisfactory explanation, which cannot withstand scrutiny after careful consideration.

These people around him are trying to hide something from him, whether it is Han Chen or his elder brother, each of them hides a lot of secrets, Gu Tingxi thought they just didn't want to bring up the past, but the reality slapped him hard A slap in the face, what should come is here.

He took out his mobile phone. Although the screen was broken, it could still be turned on. He pressed Han Chen's phone number and was mentally prepared before dialing it.

"Sorry, the phone number you dialed is empty, please check and dial again."

Despair and fear paralyzed his body in an instant, countless pictures flashed in his mind, countless noisy voices echoed in his ears, and laughter and indulgent ridicule came and went one after another.

Those voices became more and more piercing, and more and more different voices were mixed in, but at the critical point where Gu Tingxi was on the verge of collapse, these voices stopped abruptly.

Gu Tingxi heard that laughter again.

There is a rustle of hoarseness in the deep laughter, the voice seems to be whispering in your ear, if there is nothing but it is endless.

He finally remembered, just today, just today he clearly met the murderer!

Gu Tingxi slapped the back of the chair vigorously, and a raging headache came over, as if it was about to tear his head in two. He yelled frantically: "I saw him! I saw him!"

The big head was startled by his sudden roar, the car almost hit the curb, he quickly drove the car to the side of the road and stopped.

Gu Siqian turned around and grabbed Gu Tingxi's arm: "Where is he? Where did you see him!"

Gu Tingxi suddenly calmed down, and realized that his face was full of tears. He looked at Gu Siqian in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice, "Why didn't you ask me who the murderer was? You already knew, didn't you?"

Gu Siqian slowly loosened his clothes, sat back in the seat silently, put on the seat belt again, and said lightly: "Big head, drive."

Gu Tingxi looked at his idiot-like face reflected on the window glass, and couldn't help laughing ironically: "So you all know that I'm just a fool, it's always been like this."

"Not letting you know is to protect you." Gu Siqian said with difficulty, looking at the endless road in front of him, his eyes were full of water.

Gu Tingxi covered his eyes and laughed out of breath. After the laughter stopped, he said, "Now Brother Chen is gone, who's next? I have something on me that deserves your protection!"

Gu Tingxi choked up on the back seat, letting tears flow unscrupulously from the corners of his eyes, "I'm just an ordinary person, not very smart or capable, eating at home and spending money at home, what do I have to do with others?" Different? What did I do wrong? Are there any big things that you all want to hide from me? Really something is coming for me, I give him my life, can you give me back my father... "

Gu Tingxi murmured incoherently, he hadn't had time to be filial to his father, he didn't even get to know him well, most of the time they met, they broke up on bad terms, and finally the relationship between the two had eased recently, but on this day , without any preparation, gave him a blow like a bolt from the blue.

After venting, Gu Tingxi desperately squeezed back the tears, wiped the tears off his face with his hands, took a deep breath and said, "Who is that person?"

Gu Siqian's sudden silence made Gu Tingxi feel uneasy in his heart. His head was in a mess and he couldn't think. He couldn't even remember the person's appearance. He only remembered that he had a pair of clear ocean-like eyes, no...it should be Amber The color...not right...it's emerald green...

Gu Tingxi had a severe headache, and he found that he couldn't remember the appearance of that person no matter what, as if everything was his illusion, and everything only happened in his imagination.

"I'll tell you everything after my father's funeral is settled." Gu Siqian closed his eyes tiredly, "You have to be patient. Today is different from the past, the other party has started to act..."

Gu Tingxi took a deep breath and swallowed all the doubts in his stomach. He vowed to bring the murderer to justice!

It was already late at night when the car arrived at the destination, and the old house was brightly lit. Mr. Fang hadn't informed the others, so he called them back overnight.

Gu Tingxi opened the door and got out of the car, and rushed in quickly.

The moment Gu Tingxi saw the coffin, his hands and feet were cold and he dared not move forward, but his head calmed down in an instant. He wanted to figure out the ins and outs of the matter and avenge his father!

The old lady stepped forward and hugged him, tears streaming down her face: "You are finally back, go and see your dad."

Elder Fang leaned on crutches and walked behind Gu Siqian, patted his shoulder lightly: "Come with me."

Gu Siqian glanced at Gu Tingxi who had a dull expression, and quietly followed Fang Lao out of the hall.

"Grandpa, what's going on? What did the police say? Why is it already in the coffin?"

Mr. Fang frowned tightly and motioned for him to close the door: "The police have already made arrangements. Zhongping's body was thrown at the door together with Assistant Tang's. The accident was reported to Ting Xi, and Assistant Tang's body was thrown at the door. The body was skinned..."

Gu Siqian trembled, put his palm against the corner of the table, panted and asked, "Where's my dad?"

"The body was dismembered." Fang Lao's eyes were bloodshot, "I don't know what your specific plan is, but Zhong Ping talked to me before he left, and I disagreed when he wanted to avenge Siku at the earliest, but Things have evolved to this point today, the initiative is no longer in our hands, both you and Tingxi must prepare for the worst, it is time for him to face all this."

Gu Siqian slowly closed his eyes, trying to get rid of the sadness in his eyes. He understood from the beginning to the end that revenge for his mother was just a trigger, and fighting for justice was the belief his father relied on until the last moment.

After the two finished talking, they returned to the living room, only to see Gu Tingxi leaning on the coffin, talking in a low voice, laughing while talking, his face was full of sadness but no more tears.

The coffin lid was half covered, only Gu Zhongping's pale and bleeding cheeks were exposed, and everything below the neck was covered by the coffin lid.

Gu Siqian suddenly noticed a change in Gu Tingxi, his once fragile brother became extremely calm now, he seemed to see himself ten years ago, growing up overnight, even if he was surrounded by relatives and friends My friend, Gu Siqian still felt the fear of being alone and helpless in his heart, and growing up turned out to be a kind of torture.

The preparations for the funeral were in a hurry, and Gu Siqian arranged the whole process in a low-key and simple manner according to the usual style of taking care of Zhongping.

However, there are still countless business people and journalists and paparazzi who heard the news and surrounded the Gu family.

On the day of the burial, Nangong also came. It was the first time that Gu Tingxi saw him wearing a black suit. He put away his playful smile, and his whole body was filled with a cold aura.

Gu Tingxi stood aside, watching him silently after burning incense, and walked to her side through the crowd.

"Are you okay?" Nangong frowned slightly, looking at him with some worry.

Gu Tingxi sneered and said: "Among so many people, you have always cared about my body and my mood the most, for fear that I would be devastated, and also afraid that I would have an accident."

Nangong stood side by side with him, frowning slightly, completely ignoring his sarcasm.

Gu Tingxi pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I'm not in a good mood these days."

"I know." Nangong stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his shoulder and patted him lightly, "Be strong, we still have a lot to do in the future."

"Brother Chen...is he alright?" Gu Tingxi subconsciously grabbed the hem of his clothes and held it tightly in his hands.

"As long as you are alive, nothing will happen to him." Nangong said in a low voice, "come to my house to find me after today is over."

The author has something to say: The main story is coming soon, and there will be one or two small cases later, but it will take a while. The cases interspersed in the main story are not too suspenseful. After all, it is the main story, and the main story is still the main story. , separate cases will be opened in the future.How should I put it, although I haven’t written it well all the time, I have been working hard. I am an advocate of natural reasoning. Such cases may not be close to reality, but they will be more interesting. The earliest writing of this story was to write some For a single case, the main line is also created to match the existence of the protagonist. After writing the main line and explaining the ins and outs of the story, there will only be completely independent cases in the future (keep writing if you have a brain, or you may have to write for a lifetime), Because the original setting is not a police and robber series, I wish that every case is an island mode, so the main story will also end in a novelty-hunting way.There is also a bad news, it will be a long, long, long time before Lao Han will meet Xiao Gu, and the good news is that everyone doesn't have to eat dog food recently, and I am going to run away.
