Chapter 111 We Have a Clue

"Every NightinmydreamsIseeyou, Ifeelyou, ThatishhowIknowyou—"

Just when their lips were about to meet, He Yu's cell phone rang.

Celine Dion's clear singing voice suddenly brought He Yu back from the confusion of desire, the ambiguous magic was broken, and he suddenly remembered all the things that happened before.

He sat up suddenly, his chest was still hot, heaved up and down, but his eyes moved away from Xie Qingcheng's handsome face.

"Cough...I'll answer the phone."

Xie Qingcheng also sat up in embarrassment.

The hair on his forehead was disheveled, and there was a chill between his brows and eyes. He Yu was not the only one who was awakened by the sound of the bell. Xie Qingcheng was a little bit stunned when he was looked at by He Yu just now.

This is not to say that he has softened his heart, but that he feels that He Yu's state is very strange. When he was stared at like that, Xie Qingcheng even had an illusion.

He felt that if he said no again at this time, the boy would lose his life.

But then he felt that he was thinking too much.

This kind of eyes almost like a baby bird, this kind of eyes that only he can rely on in the whole world, was only given to him by Xie Xue a long, long time ago.

Who is He Yu? He is different from Xie Xue.Such a capable child, who can't live without him?

Why did I almost misunderstand... I was almost bewitched by this person again... Fuck it.

Xie Qingcheng started to touch the cigarette again under his agitation. After touching it for a long time, he didn't touch it. Only then did he remember that he had finished smoking the last cigarette just now.

"...Well, okay, I see."

He Yu was still listening to the phone, answering a few words from time to time.

Xie Qingcheng was going to get out of the car, he thought it was fucking ridiculous tonight, but fortunately this phone call came, if he and He Yu had a car shock today, then he would be ashamed for the rest of his life.Moreover, this kind of behavior is completely irresponsible to He Yu and to himself.

He unbuckled his seat belt and was about to go.

But He Yu suddenly held him down, and shook his head to signal him not to move, while frowning, listening to the phone seriously.

Although He Yu's voice was still hoarse with lust, his tone was already very calm and calm. Outsiders could never have imagined that he was still in the car just now about to take off the clothes of his former psychiatrist, and was about to push someone in the back seat Kissing hard, ready to fuck someone who could be his uncle.The so-called beasts in clothes and crowns are probably like this.

"Okay, no problem, wait for me to pass in a while."

After hanging up the call, He Yu turned his head, and said to Xie Qing: "You and I go to Baoshan Nursing Home, there is someone who wants to meet us."

Xie Qingcheng: "Who?"

"I don't know if you still remember." He Yu said, "It was that old man named Zhuang Zhiqiang you met when you were on a blind date with that little girl surnamed Bai."

The Baoshan Nursing Home is the property of the He family.

But this area of ​​He Jiwei has been handed over to He Yu, and He Yu is in charge of everything.After the incident in Chengkang Mental Hospital, the homeless and mentally ill Zhuang Zhiqiang was arranged by He Yu to take care of him in this nursing home.

So much time passed in a flash, the head nurse of the nursing home called just now, saying that Zhuang Zhiqiang was dying, and it probably took only two days.

But the old man was awake at the end of his life, and his thoughts suddenly became very clear.

He remembered how he was rescued here, and said he wanted to meet those young people.

When He Yu and Xie Qingcheng drove to Baoshan Nursing Home, Zhuang Zhiqiang was lying on a raised nursing bed, his eyes half-closed, as if he was not.

"Old man, our Dean He and Mr. Xie are here." The nurse gently woke Zhuang Zhiqiang up.

The old man woke up slowly from his light sleep, his eyes focused on the two of them.

"Ah, it's you." Zhuang Zhiqiang's chest was like an old-fashioned radiator, working hard, exuding the last breath of living people, "It's you..."

He struggled to sit up from the bed, but was stopped by He Yu.

"Grandpa, you just need to lie down."

The old man's lips were trembling, and every breath was heavy. He seemed to have a lot to say to them, but before he could speak, tears filled his eyes, and then fell down.

"I... I didn't bother you, did I?"

"No." He Yu said, "We happen to have something to do outside, so we haven't slept yet."

Zhuang Zhiqiang seemed to be a little relieved, he wiped away his tears, and held He Yu's hand tightly: "... oh... I know I'm dying, I... I invite you to come here, it's really... really I really want to say thank you to you.”

"I have come to Shanghai several times, wandering outside for so many years, thinking that I have never done anything wrong in my life, but I don't know why, when I am getting old, I feel so uncomfortable... My heart is really bitter..." When the old man said this, he couldn't help but took a deep breath, raised his hand and wiped his tears, "It's really hard. If I hadn't met you kind people, I might... maybe I wouldn't even have a place to rest, maybe He died on the side of the road, in the gazebo... It took several days before the body was found."

The more Zhuang Zhiqiang talked, the more sad he became, and his emotions gradually became agitated.

It seemed that he really wanted to climb out of bed and kowtow twice to those who finally took him in.

He Yu immediately held him down and helped him to lie down again, as did Xie Qingcheng.

Zhuang Zhiqiang's mind is much clearer than before, which also means that his life is indeed coming to an end.The old man lived a rough life, and only encountered rare kindness in the last stage of his life. His simple and honest character made him have to thank them personally before he passed away. It seemed that he could share with the world The two cleared up, and then left with peace of mind.

Xie Qingcheng and He Yu stayed with him for a while, the old man calmed down, and then asked: "Where... that little girl?"

He was talking about Xie Xue.

At the moment, Xie Xue is lying in another private hospital receiving intermittent treatment for rare diseases.

Xie Qingcheng said: "She has something to do at work, and she is not in Shanghai. But if you have anything you want to say to her, you can tell me, and I will pass it on to her."

"Oh...don't bother anymore." Zhuang Zhiqiang coughed and shook his head slowly, "I really don't dare to bother anymore."

He looked at the ceiling with cloudy eyes: "I just want to ask you... When you see her in the future, say thank you to her... Thank you for this little girl... What is her name?"

"Her name is Xie Xue."

"Xie Xue..." The eyes of the old man who had been covered with fog seemed to see a ray of light, and the Tyndall effect appeared in the eyes of a dying elder, "Oh... there is also a name in her name." Snow... this is really... this is really..."

When He Yu heard this, his heart suddenly moved.

He asked Zhuang Zhiqiang: "Old man, when we met you that day, you said that you had a daughter, and you came to Shanghai to find her. But the people at the rescue station told us that they had investigated, and you There is no such daughter in my hometown, at that time we thought you might have hallucinations..."

"What? It's not a hallucination!" The old man became emotional, "She, how could she be a hallucination? Her name is Zhao Xue, of course you can't find her...because...because she is not my biological daughter...she It's my adopted daughter—!"

Next, Zhuang Zhiqiang lay on the hospital bed and told them about the unknown past.

The place where Zhuang Zhiqiang lives is very poor. This kind of poverty is not only economic, but also spiritual.Because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, this land that is difficult to grow crops is full of all kinds of absurdities.

Foolish things like selling children, child brides, early marriage and early childbearing, and even bone matching will happen.

Zhuang Zhiqiang's mother was a victim of this custom. She was sold to Zhuang Zhiqiang's father when she was 14 years old, and she was beaten and kicked by worthless men.

When old man Zhuang was a child, he saw his scarred mother wiping tears every day, which touched his young heart a lot.

After Zhuang Zhiqiang's parents passed away, he lived alone in isolation and had little contact with the idle, rough and fierce men in the village.People thought he was a weirdo and didn't know much about him.He didn't marry a wife either. People in the village marrying a wife is like selling a daughter to raise a son. Don't like the man on the bed.During this process, she still had to cry desperately, and she also had to bear the greasy harassment from the guests, who did not bear any responsibility.

Zhuang Zhiqiang didn't have that much money, and he didn't want to treat a girl like this.

In this ignorant village, he lived soberly, and then he was a bachelor all his life.

But Zhuang Zhiqiang is not without close people.

There is a beautiful and intelligent girl named Zhao Xue in the next village.

One day, when Zhuang Zhiqiang came home from his farm work, he heard a whining noise in the haystack behind his house. At first he thought the noise was caused by a weasel, but he walked over with a stick and realized it was a girl.

That was the first time he saw Zhao Xue.

Probably Zhuang Zhiqiang exuded a strong sense of righteousness. After the initial hesitation and shock, the little girl timidly followed Zhuang Zhiqiang back to the house, drank a few sips of hot water with oil floating in it, and then knelt down Wailed on the ground.

She said, uncle, please help me, please help me, I don't want to marry.

Rao Zhuang Zhiqiang, who was used to bad habits in such a poor country, was also taken aback, because Zhao Xue was too young, and she didn't seem to be fully developed. Even in their village, it was rare to marry such a little girl.

Zhuang Zhiqiang questioned her carefully, and when he learned what happened, his scalp became numb with anger.

Zhao Xue is a girl from Zhaojia Village a few miles away. She is the only girl in the family, and the other three are boys born to her mother and stepfather.

Her stepfather had a beastly face and thought badly about her. Although her mother was weak, she protected her when her stepfather was drunk and tried to harass her, and was seriously injured by his stepfather.Soon after, the mother died.

The incidents of beating women in this barren countryside are endless, and everyone is used to it.As long as he was not killed on the spot, it is difficult to determine whether the murderer is the husband in human skin.

After Zhao Xue's mother was buried, Zhao Xue was forced to stop studying and returned home to cook for her stepfather and three older brothers.

After the death of his wife, his stepfather didn't dare to harass her for the time being, but after a while, he wanted to "buy" Zhao Xue because a big family offered a big dowry, and he readily agreed to the other party's request.

The gift money given by the other party was too much, enough for him to squander it for several years.

Therefore, of course he doesn't care that the son of the rich family has vitiligo and mental illness, so what does that have to do with him?It wasn't him who married.

Zhao Xue was terrified, and escaped from home overnight, climbed over a mountain, fled from Zhaojia Village to the nearby Zhuangjia Village...

After Zhuang Zhiqiang listened to her narration, he silently smoked for a long time, looked at the girl kneeling in front of him, and finally made up his mind.

He said to Zhao Xue: "Well, girl, if you can rest assured, you will stay at my uncle's house for one night today. Tomorrow my uncle will take you to the county, where there is a newly built Hope Primary School. If you can stay, we will try Then talk to the principal about the situation, if they can take you in, then you don't have to go back, you just stay in the county town and don't go back to that ghost place again. Would you like to trust uncle?"

Zhao Xue's luck was bad, but also good.

She was unfortunate enough to be born into such a family, but was lucky enough to meet Zhuang Zhiqiang.

The principal of Hope Primary School is also a very kind woman. She not only accepted this student, but also gave her firm protection for many years afterwards.

Zhao Xue usually lives in the school with the headmistress, and when she is free during holidays, she will take a car back to Zhuangjia Village to work with Zhuang Zhiqiang in farming.

Zhao Xue recognized Lao Zhuang as his father, and called him one old man at a time, making Zhuang Zhiqiang smile wryly.But not many people have met Zhao Xue, and even fewer know of their adoptive father-daughter relationship. After all, Zhao Xue escaped from the next village, and Zhuang Zhiqiang doesn't want her life to be disturbed again.

Life went on like this, Zhao Xue went from elementary school to junior high school, and then to high school...

She lived up to Zhuang Zhiqiang and the female principal's kindness to her, and entered a newly completed high school in the county with excellent grades.

The school also has a certain charitable nature, but the infrastructure, teaching software and hardware are more than a little better than the usual Hope Project.The school even has a variety of art training majors, dedicated to giving children in mountainous areas more opportunities to go to the bustling city.

"She told me later that she was selected to be an art candidate." Zhuang Zhiqiang recalled, "I didn't know what an art candidate was, so she explained to me that she would be a model or star on TV...so She has to go to Shanghai to study professional courses..."

When the old man said this, he wiped his tears with a tissue tremblingly, and said with a choked voice: "I was very happy at that time. I think Shanghai is a metropolis. There are a few people who can gain a foothold in this place. But my daughter can go... My daughter is amazing..."

Zhuang Zhiqiang paused, and suddenly burst into tears: "But I haven't seen her until now... It's like she disappeared when she came. I asked the school, and the school didn't know anything. Tell me I searched for her address, but there was nothing, it was all moved... I can't find her... I can't find her..."

The old man couldn't stop sobbing: "I'm not crazy... I really have a daughter... My daughter hasn't been seen for many years... I miss her..."

"Before I leave, what I can't let go of is her."

"Where did she go...does she remember me, an old man..."

Big tears fell down on the quilt.

He Yu and Xie Qingcheng were quietly by his side, accompanying this elder who was crying like a child.

Maybe this scene was too pitiful. Even though he knew that there was little hope, He Yu finally said: "Old man, let me help you find a way. Do you have any information about Zhao Xue's final whereabouts? For example, who came to recruit her at that time?" Did she go to Shanghai?"

"I asked the school, and the school said it was too long, and they didn't record it..."

"Then Zhao Xue has contacted you since she arrived in Shanghai?"

"Only at the beginning..." Zhuang Zhiqiang recalled, "At the beginning, she called me happily, but at that time, she only said that Huzhou was very beautiful, and she saw a lot of things that she only saw on TV before. I didn’t say anything else about the things I’ve done… because she signed a… confidentiality contract with Secretary Wang…”

He Yu's heart skipped a beat.

Although there are a lot of people surnamed Wang in this world, but when he connects the elements of "art training", "mysterious disappearance", and "crime", he immediately thinks of one person.

He asked Zhuang Zhiqiang: "That Secretary Wang, did Zhao Xue tell you his name?"

"Say, I said, but I didn't pay attention at the time, I can't remember clearly. It seems to be called Wang...Wang or something...generous..."

Like a thunderbolt.

He Yu and Xie Qingcheng looked at each other, and they both saw their ugly faces in each other's eyes——

Wang Jiankang.

The first deceased in the Shanghai University Radio and Television Tower murder case.

Zhao Xue's disappearance was actually related to them!And it became an unexpected clue for them to trace the Chengkang case and the Radio and Television Tower case!
