Even if you become an animal, you have to serve an iron rice bowl
Chapter 164 (3 in 1) (1)
The old man took out his reading glasses, turned on Wubi and typed: "I want to chat with you, how was your study today?"
It was inputting first, and after about 1 minute, a picture came over, which was a high school math problem, and then a voice.
The voice sounded like it had just entered the inflection period, a little impatient and complaining.
"Today, the school issued a set of high math test papers. It's hard to die. I'm doing the papers."
The old man clicked on the big picture and squinted his eyes for a while, then picked up a pen and paper to write and draw next to it, and finally clicked on the voice to teach the other party what to do bit by bit.
In the end, he said in a kindly tone with a little comfort, "Don't be too anxious, take your time and you'll be fine. Remember to listen to the teacher in class, and come back and ask grandpa if you don't know it."
The other side quickly replied impatiently.
Although impatient, he often came to ask the old man when he encountered problems that he didn't understand.
It looks like the usual grandparents and grandchildren who are children who are impatient with adult discipline.
But Shen Qiu always felt that something was not right.
Seeing the old man put down his phone with satisfaction, he also went back to his nest and got down on the ground.
He decided to observe for another two days to see if he could see anything from the chat.
Time passed quickly, Wu Zicang's schedule was still boring, and Shen Qiu still couldn't see anything from the chat records.
But in the past few days, whenever Wu Zicang talks to his grandson, he will definitely transfer money, the minimum is fifty, and the maximum is two hundred.
The other party will only appear when you start transferring money first.
After the transfer is over, the other party will say good night.
It looked like a rebellious grandson, but Shen Qiu still found it strange.
He decided to find time to find out about this grandson.
After the day's chat was over, the old man washed and went to bed as usual. After the old man fell asleep, he unplugged the mobile phone that was charging, and then quietly opened the door and hid in the corner.
He already knew the lock code, so he tapped the numbers with his nose when his claws were not working well, and opened the phone to enter WeChat.
There are very few friends in the old man's address book, except for relatives and colleagues.
Shen Qiu slid down, originally wanting to find the old man's son's Wechat to see if he and the grandson had shared likes.
But I didn't expect to slide to the bottom to see another account with the note of grandson.
The avatar is an Ultraman, which is very suitable for the preferences of young boys.
But I clicked in and saw that there was no chat history, and then clicked to open the circle of friends.
The boys' circle of friends is very clean, only complaining about too much homework, and the math teacher taking over their physical education class.
In the first circle of friends, Shen Qiu saw a family photo.
The boy in the photo is very sunny, looking at the camera with a bright smile on his face. In front of him is Wu Zicang sitting in police uniform, and behind him is a middle-aged couple standing in police uniform.
The accompanying text is "my proud family."
This seems to be different from his grandson who has seen chat records these days,
The life of the circle of friends is the end of the previous year, and there is only such a big difference in the gap of one year?
Even adolescent rebelliousness can't be so rude.
Shen Qiu became more suspicious.
Samoyed's white brows were wrinkled, and his nose was puffing.After thinking about it, I switched back to the account of the grandson who chatted, and found the original chat history.
What surprised Shen Qiu was that the old man added this account on his own initiative.
Added at the beginning of this year.
I don't know where I found the mobile phone number. The added words are: Is my grandson short of money recently?Grandpa will transfer some pocket money for you.
Even stranger.
Even if the grandson changed his WeChat ID, why did he mention pocket money in the friend application?
After the friend passed, the old man also transferred 500 yuan in the first time, and the other side first sent a question mark and then accepted the transfer.
The subsequent chat records were no different from what Shen Qiu had seen in the past two days.
The other party was not enthusiastic, nor did they have the respect they should have for their elders.
He checked the transaction amount between the two.
It has only been half a year since adding friends, and the transaction amount has actually reached [-].
It's only half a year.
If this person is not Wu Zicang's grandson...then this amount has reached the criminal standard.
Samoyed took a deep breath, his round eyes were full of puzzlement, doubt and shock.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Qiu sent another person's grandson account "Are you short of money recently?"
Typing with dog paws is really difficult, so I can only use the tip of my nose to type in pinyin, and then press the keys one by one.
After the hard fight, delete the chat history.
If there is no response from the two numbers tomorrow morning, then you can talk to Liu Qing about this matter.
After finishing all this, Shen Qiu put the phone back as it was, and took a long time to push the charging plug with two paws.
The moon climbed into the sky, and Samoyed returned to the kennel and lay down, with his paws crossed and his chin resting on them. Connecting all the threads of this matter, a thought emerged in his mind.
When night comes, the hustle and bustle of the city fades away.
In the nursing home, there were only two nosy dogs left guarding the entrance of the cafeteria, staring at the surrounding corners with their big green eyes, not letting go of any trouble.
Suddenly, the husky rushed out and bit a small thing in the grass.
Lala didn't move at the side, and when the husky took the little thing out and was about to bite it to death, Lala finally saw the little thing's appearance clearly.
It didn't have the slightest resemblance to the mice they caught two days ago.
Lala stood up and hurriedly shouted, "Haha, be merciful!"
The husky tilted his head, his erect ears trembling, "Woo?"
"It doesn't look like a mouse."
The little thing in Haha's mouth has a long, fluffy and fluffy tail, a round face, and round ears. Although the color of the fur can't be seen clearly in the dark, it is obviously not the black and gray hair of a mouse. The biggest mice are bigger.
Probably sensing the danger, it kept struggling and moving in the husky's mouth.
Haha couldn't control it anymore, sobbing and asking Lala, "Then can I kill it?"
Lala thought for a while and shook her head, "Let's take it to the human leader."
Haha was a little discouraged, but he still held back his mouth. After making sure that the little thing would not escape or be bitten, the two dogs went to Liu Qing's dormitory side by side.
The previous lessons gave them a long memory, and this time they didn't put the little things at the door.
Instead, he knocked on the door politely.
Lala stepped forward and knocked on the door several times with her nails.
Wait for voices to come from inside before backing away.
After being woken up in the middle of the night, Liu Qing's tone was a little uncomfortable. He squinted his eyes and turned on the light, mumbling: "Who disturbs people's dreams in the middle of the night."
One side unlocked the door.
First, open a slit and look forward, no one is there.
"Wang!"
There was a dog barking below, he looked down, Haha Lala happily wagged his tail at him.
Looking at the corridor again, there is no dead mouse.
Liu Qing was very satisfied and was about to ask them what they were doing.
I saw Haha suddenly lowered his head to put something on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, I felt something rushing in from between my legs.
The other party's soft and prickly hair brushed across his ankle.
At that moment, the hair all over his body exploded, like a cat with its hair exploded, Liu Qing jumped on the ground with both feet, and shouted: "What!"
This sound was like thunder in the silent nursing home, and it was no surprise that the old people in the nearby dormitory were awakened.
Shen Qiugang was half asleep and half awake, when he heard the sound, the whole dog jumped up from the mat.
Seeing Wu Zicang wake up leisurely, and then glanced at the phone that was still charging, Shen Qiu felt a little guilty.
Fortunately, the sound was not advanced, even if it was 10 minutes earlier, Wu Zicang would wake up and see a scary scene of a dog playing with his mobile phone.
Shen Qiu was led out by Wu Zicang, heading towards Liu Qing's dormitory.
When we arrived at the place, someone had already arrived in advance. In the dark, a few old people were looking for something in the room with flashlights.
You bring reading glasses, I take out the magnifying glass, it is very difficult to find.
Not surprisingly, Shen Qiu also saw Ersha at the door who had consciously stood against the wall.
With his head down, he obviously realized that they were causing trouble again.
Wu Zicang walked over and asked in a calm voice, "What happened?"
Liu Qing looked up when he heard the voice, first glanced at Qiuqiu, then sighed, half helpless and half funny, and said, "Here, just those two guys, let them go to the cafeteria to catch mice. Good guy catches mice in the middle of the night. A creature that I don't know what it is came over and threw it at my door, and now that thing ran into the house, and I don't know where it hid."
"Not a mouse?"
Liu Qing shook his head, "It hit my ankle at the time, and it felt bigger than a mouse."
Haha whimpered softly, "We obviously showed him the new species we caught out of good intentions, why were we still wrong?" He asked his second brother very puzzled.
As for the eldest brother?He didn't even dare to take a glance, for fear of seeing his elder brother's black face.
Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Shen Qiu couldn't laugh or cry.
This time it can't be said that the second fool was wrong, the dog is also kind.
I can only say... don't trust Gouzi's brain circuits too much, otherwise they will definitely do some ridiculous things.
Several old people searched for a long time in Liu Qing's dormitory, and finally found the weasel hiding in the corner of the closet.
The other party huddled in a corner and shivered, his dark eyes filled with fear and bewilderment.
"Yo, Huang Daxian."
"This is a wild animal. Fortunately, Haha Lala didn't kill him, otherwise he would be fined for eating wild animals."
One of the old men laughed and praised Haha for his good work, which made Liu Qing quite helpless.
Several people caught the weasel and rushed it to the small woods behind to release it overnight.
The weasel was so frightened that it rushed out of the snakeskin bag and ran away with a "swish", with the word "panic" written on its back.
This midnight episode came to an abrupt end, and soon the nursing home fell into a deep sleep again.
The next day.
Shen Qiu put all his mind on the old man's mobile phone.
According to the old man's daily life, he seldom chats with people during the day, so he only replies when someone finds him.
Most of the rest of the time is spent watching news, reading books, reading newspapers, listening to the radio with a mobile phone and the like.
This day was no different.
Wechat has not been opened all day.
Obviously, the message he sent yesterday fell into the sea.
It may be possible that the two accounts are really the same person, and the reason why there is no reply is because the account is lost, the password is forgotten or something else.
But... Just in case, Shen Qiu thought about it all night, and went to find Liu Qing early in the morning with his mobile phone.
Unlocking the phone in advance, and flipping through the transaction records full of transfers with that grandson, Samoyed found Liu Qing who was playing chess with the old man with the corner of the phone in his mouth.
Wu Zicang is reading in the library right now, and he doesn't know how to look at his mobile phone, so it's the best time.
"Hey, General! I said you old guy, you can't renege on your debt this time."
"No, no, come again, another game! I don't believe I can't beat you today."
The small stone table was full of people, Shen Qiu didn't even leave a gap.
He tried to squeeze in, but was pulled out by the found old man on a leash.
They were all focused on the chessboard, and didn't notice the phone in Shen Qiu's mouth at all.
Shen Qiu felt a little helpless, put the phone by his feet and gave them two "barks".
The loud voice finally attracted the attention of the old people.
Liu Qing poked his head through the gap and asked Shen Qiu: "Qiuqiu, why didn't you go to the library with Old Wu? Did you come to play with Haha?"
Haha, who was playing ball with the old man on the grass next to him, was lying on the ground, ready to rush over at any time.
Shen Qiu groaned at him: "Don't move!"
Haha's pricked ears immediately fell down.
Shen Qiu ignored him, but lowered his head and pushed the phone in front of him, Liu Qing noticed it.
Somewhat strange.
"Whose phone is this?"
He finally walked over from the chessboard, and while picking up the phone, he told: "Don't snatch it from me, I must take this old..."
He saw the phone screen, and the transfer transactions on the screen made his eyelids twitch.
It's also a coincidence that Liu Qing was an anti-fraud criminal policeman before he retired.
These transfer records obviously touched his anti-fraud DNA.
Stopped talking, read all the records, returned to the chat box and slid to the top.
His sudden silence caught the attention of other old people, and they all came to watch.
Someone suddenly pointed to the phone and said, "Isn't this Lao Wu's account?"
As he said that, he took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat and compared, "It's really true."
"Who did he transfer the money to?"
"Grandson?"
"But Old Wu's grandson isn't..."
An old man who knew the inside story was stunned, looked at the chat record for a while, and then spit out the following words, "Did you die..."
died?
Shen Qiu was taken aback.
The others were obviously stunned as well.
Wu Zicang has only been in the nursing home for a year, because he is relatively quiet and withdrawn, and there are no elderly people who get along with him.
Little is known about him.
The reason why the old man knew this was because he was familiar with his son. He heard some things from his son and wanted the old man to help take care of Wu Zicang in the nursing home.
But I didn't expect that Wu Zicang didn't like to talk to people, and he couldn't blend in with the crowd. The old man couldn't take care of him even if he wanted to.
After he finished speaking, his brows were frowned into a lump, and his wrinkled face was serious.
"His grandson died before Lao Wu came to the nursing home, this grandson must be fake!"
Liu Qing also looked through all the records, with a serious face, but still asked, "Is it possible that they are the nephews of the brothers and sisters?"
The old man was also a little hesitant, "But look at this chat record... Which grandnephew asked the old man to transfer money before answering."
This made Liu Qing feel even more wrong.
After thinking for a while, he asked the other old people to disperse first, while he took the old man entrusted by Wu Zicang's son to the vice president's office.
He first looked for the phone number of Wu Zicang's son, but no one answered the call.
The other party's daughter-in-law is still busy.
Liu Qing frowned, looking at the only insider.
"Old Wu has a bad relationship with his family?"
The old man frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I've never heard of it. Old Wu's son and daughter-in-law are both policemen. They work as criminal police and drug control in the next city. Maybe they are busy."
The criminal police and drug control are indeed very busy.
Liu Qing put down the phone and decided to understand the situation first.
"Then why did you say that Old Wu's grandson passed away?"
Samoyed, who was leaning under the desk, immediately raised his ears and concentrated.
Mentioning this, the old man first sighed.
"I know this is also because my son and Xiao Wu are colleagues, and because Lao Wu strongly requested to come to the nursing home, so please come to me..." He shook his head with regret on his face.
"It's also a crime. I have met that grandson of Old Wu. He has a good study and a good personality. He is the kind of child from other people's family in the legend..."
Shen Qiu unconsciously thought of the photos he saw in the other party's Moments that night.
Wu Zicang's grandson, Wu Yuan, was 17 when he died, and he had just finished the summer vacation of the college entrance examination.
Wu Zicang's son is named Wu Mingliang. It stands to reason that both Wu Mingliang and his wife live in the next city, so his son should also be studying in the next city.
But because Wu Zicang is here, the couple are worried about the old man, so the child transferred to this city to study in junior high school, and has been with Wu Zicang all the time. The grandparent and grandson have a very good relationship.
After the elderly retire, the old and the young often go out to play.
On the day of the accident, the two said they were going fishing, but they met someone who slipped and fell into the river.
As a former policeman, Wu Zicang's first reaction when he saw this was to throw away his fishing rod and jump off.
But Wu Yuan moved faster than him, and jumped into the water with a "plop" to save people.
The young man was fast, and when Wu Zicang passed by, the young man had already picked him up, but because the other party kept struggling to hold Wu Yuan and refused to let go, Wu Yuan's physical strength was exhausted very quickly.
Anyone who has rescued people in the water knows that when the person who fell into the water is rescued, he will subconsciously hug the person who came to save him, just like grabbing the last straw, which consumes a lot of energy.
Wu Zicang took a look, and hurriedly took over the man who fell into the water, because he was in a hurry to send him ashore, so he didn't notice Wu Yuan, he just thought that his grandson would follow behind him, and when he sent the man up, he turned around and found that his grandson was swallowed by the water film.
It was too late to rescue Wu Yuan together with the people who came to help.
Weeds were wrapped around his legs, and he drank too much water when he was struggling. A large amount of water accumulated in his lungs, which caused inflammation.
The old man sighed fiercely as he spoke, his words were full of pity, "It stands to reason that a boy of this age is physically strong and physically strong, and simple drowning will not cause death."
"But that river... was secretly discharged sewage by a factory, and the lungs were seriously flooded with water, and inflammation was caused by the polluted water..."
The old man couldn't go on.
17 years old, just took the college entrance examination.
On the day Wu Yuan died, Wu Zicang received his grandson's admission letter to the best university in the country.
It's just a pity... Wu Yuan can't go there anymore.
The room is quiet and pretty, only their heavy breathing is left.
Shen Qiu felt a little uncomfortable, and the family photo kept appearing in his mind.
The boy in the photo is full of sunshine. He is about to have a bright future, but...
"Xiao Wu and his wife came back in a hurry that day and received the news of the child's death. They were extremely sad, but even the family discussed and donated the child's body."
"The rescued person also failed to survive because the river water was polluted to the lungs."
"When the family came to thank the Wu family, they talked about the pollution of the river water. Afterwards, although the factory was fined for rectification for polluting the public security environment, the relevant person in charge was also sentenced for the death caused by the sewage. The two families also received corresponding compensation."
"But... the dead never come back."
After that, Wu Zicang blamed himself very much and took all the death of his grandson on himself. Although Xiao Wu and his wife never blamed the old man, Wu Zicang couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.
He rejected his son's proposal to live in the next city, and chose to enter a nursing home.
After the old man finished speaking, Liu Qing remained silent for a long time.
Shen Qiu didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment.
Is it anger at the factory, or is it distressing for the boy who is just young.
Someone knocked on the door outside, "Is Lao Liu there?"
It's Wu Zicang.
Liu Qing came back to his senses with a difficult expression on his face. He looked at the office door as if he was doing psychological construction, and he went to open the door after a while.
"Old Liu, I don't know where my cell phone is, please help me adjust..."
After speaking, seeing Shen Qiu, he groaned.
"Qiaoqiu, why did you come here? I just passed by the grass to see Haha. I thought you were there, did you see my phone?"
He spoke with a little smile, not a big smile, but it could be seen that he was in a good mood now.
Being able to chat with his "grandson" at night and accompanied by Qiuqiu every step of the way during the day, Wu Zicang's mood is obviously much better than when Shen Qiu first arrived.
Shen Qiu didn't know what emotion to use to express his comfort to Wu Zicang for finding a child of the same age as his grandson.
Distressed?pity?Or sympathy?
After Wu Zicang finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong in the house. He saw the old man in the house in a blink of an eye, and then saw the mobile phone in Liu Qing's hand.
"Old Liu, you..."
"Wu Zicang."
Liu Qing called out his full name seriously.
Wu Zicang was stunned, and subconsciously straightened his back.
Liu Qing wanted to say something, but he couldn't get it out of his mouth.
He wanted to reprimand Wu Zicang for corrupting the child's view of money from the standpoint of a policeman.
But when he thought of that child Wu Yuan, he couldn't say anything.
He wanted to tell Wu Zicangsi that the man had passed away, no matter how much he continued to blame himself, the dead man would never come back to life.
But...he looked at the rapidly dimming light in Wu Zicang's eyes, and thought of the corners of his mouth and loosened brows that he had seldom raised this year.
He opened his mouth for a while, but couldn't utter a single word.
He had nothing to say, but Wu Zicang took a deep breath and said, "It seems that you have discovered it."
He nodded, and regained the expression Shen Qiu had when he first saw him, his brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were dull, and his face was stern.
"I will delete that guy, and this kind of thing will never happen again. As for the money I transferred... I don't need to ask for it back. Just take it as a thank you to the guy for chatting with me every night."
Liu Qing's helpless face immediately became serious again.
"Old Wu, you are a policeman, don't you know that this situation will affect the child's view of money?"
"Let him feel that money is so easy to earn, what if he goes astray in the future."
"And if the other party is not a child, if he takes your money, it's a fraud, you know?"
Wu Zicang didn't speak, he lowered his head, his hands were hanging by his sides, his hair was white, and his figure was stooped.
He seemed to be standing alone in a huge shadow, not in the same world as the people around him.
With just such a speechless figure, Shen Qiu felt a deep sense of sadness.
His heart was a little stuffy.
The pure white Samoyed squeezed away Liu Qing and approached, rubbing his head against the old man's hand hanging by his side.
Wu Zicang looked over, and the originally black and gray world had a touch of extremely bright white.
He rubbed Gouzi's head, looked at Gouzi's flickering comforting eyes, and took a deep breath.
"That card is the campus card of Yuan'er School. Only students have it. It's probably a child younger than Yuan'er."
"I added it with the mentality of giving it a try. I transferred the money first, and it has nothing to do with that child. You...be more tactful."
After he finished speaking, he licked the dog's head and turned to leave.
He was caught by Liu Qing with quick eyes and hands.
"Wait! Just watch from the sidelines. When this matter is settled, I still have something to tell you."
Wu Zicang resisted a little, another old man immediately stepped forward and pushed him on the sofa in the office, he had no choice but to sit down and wait.
Seeing him sitting down, Liu Qing turned his eyes back to the phone. They chatted for a while, and the screen was locked, so he asked Wu Zicang: "The password."
Wu Zicang said a number first, and then he was a little puzzled, "You don't know how to open the phone with my password?"
"The phone was turned on when Qiuqiu brought it over..." He paused, and suddenly realized a problem.
The phone is not locked, so Wu Zicang must be using it, but the phone has been lost for almost half an hour, why did he think of looking for it.
"Ball? How did you get the ball?"
"Where do you keep your phone?"
"It's on the bedside table in the room, that's why I asked you to adjust the surveillance to see who has entered my room."
Shen Qiu: ...
Silently shrinking his body, his eyes fluttered.
As long as there is no evidence, you don't know it's me!
Liu Qing and Wu Zicang checked each other.
Wu Zicang's cell phone was locked and placed in the dormitory, but when it was in Liu Qing's hands, he not only unlocked it, but also logged in again from the exited software, and just clicked on the transaction record of the chat history...
The two old men narrowed their eyes and looked at Shen Qiu suspiciously.
The Samoyed who sat upright watched his nose, nose, and heart, as if he couldn't understand their conversation.
But who here is not human?
What the two old men had seen as policemen was probably a little worse than Shen Qiu's rebirth.
Liu Qing nodded Samoyed's head, "I'll find you when the matter is resolved."
Samoyed shrank his head, inexplicably guilty.
Liu Qing held his mobile phone for a long time to think about it. Considering that the other party was still a student, he finally chose a compromise and sent it: "Hello, I am a friend of the owner of this account."
It took about ten minutes for the other party to reply.
A question mark was sent first, and then the dialog box showed that it was typing, which lasted for about a minute.
It had been so long that Liu Qing wondered if the other party was looking for some excuse.
There was a message over there.
"I didn't touch the money that Grandpa Wu sent me. It's all in this account. I'm in class now, and when school is over at noon, I'll come to the nursing home to look for you. By the way, I'll bring the notes that Wu Yuan left here with me."
At first, I thought it was some child who was fascinated by money for a while, but now it seems...the other party not only knows Wu Zicang's identity, but also obviously knows Wu Yuan.
If the other party is not lying, then his intentions are obvious.
Pretending to be chatting with Wu Yuan and Wu Zicang to comfort the old man who lost his grandson.
The office was silent for a long time, which was broken by Wu Zicang's self-mockery.
"I thought I was spending money to find comfort, but in the end it was a child who comforted me with lies."
Wu Zicang seemed to want to laugh, but failed, and only showed an expression uglier than crying.
"It's because I delayed that child."
Seeing that his mood was depressed again, Shen Qiu hurried over.
Rubbing his head on his lap, and putting his hands on his head with his paws, Samoyed hummed twice, his eyes full of comfort.
Wu Zicang touched him, "Qiuqiu is really smart."
The voice was choked with sobs.
Shen Qiu was really afraid that this old man would think wildly because of these.
He even wondered if it would have been better if he had figured it out at the time and hadn't exposed the matter.
But then he thought again, if he didn't bring this matter to the surface, Wu Zicang would always be in the mood of self-blame, and he would be unhappy in the days to come.
This is not what the dead Wu Yuan wanted to see.
The soft Samoyed almost put his whole body on the old man's lap, humming as if he was saying comforting words.
Liu Qing took a deep breath and was about to speak when his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and glanced at Wu Zicang, then turned and went outside to answer the call.
The call was from Wu Mingliang. After he told the current situation, there was a long silence.
"I thought Dad had already let go...I didn't expect that he went to the nursing home just to find a place to punish himself..."
He sighed heavily, "I've recently taken on a big case and couldn't leave. I'll let my wife go back. Uncle Liu, please help me take care of my dad."
The police don't always have much time to spend on their own.
After hanging up the phone, they waited in the office for another hour, and there was a message saying that they had already rushed to the nursing home.
Liu Qing went out to pick up the person.
As soon as Liu Qing went out, Wu Zicang stood up uneasy, stood in front of the window and kept looking out.
Probably because he saw someone coming, he sat on the sofa again, hugged Shen Qiu and kept touching him.
Shen Qiu could feel that he was nervous, and his nervous palms were covered with sweat.
The other old man has already gone back, and there is only one person and one dog in the office.
Seeing the footsteps approaching outside, Wu Zicang suddenly said: "I dare say that I am a good policeman in my life, but I am not a good father or a good grandfather. Now I am not even a good old man."
He was blaming himself, not only for Wu Yuan's death, but now also that strange child who pretended to comfort him for half a year.
Shen Qiu couldn't speak, so he could only rub his head against him, trying to make him feel more at ease.
"Squeak."
The door opened.
A boy in a school uniform and a schoolbag came in, and he was carrying a bag in his hand.
The first thing I saw when I came in was the old man on the sofa.
Wu Zicang stood up a little restlessly, wiped his palms on the seam of his trousers, but his lips were tightly pursed and his face was serious, looking serious.
The boy came over and called Grandpa Wu very politely, "My name is Wen Zhe, and I used to be Wu Yuan's classmate."
He rubbed his head as he said, looking a little embarrassed, "But my grades are not as good as Wu Yuan's, and I'm still repeating."
He handed over the bag in his hand again, "This is the note that Wu Yuan sorted out for me before, and I want to take it back as a souvenir for you."
Wu Zicang's serious face loosened a little.
He took the bag and took out a notebook from it, and opened it.
The familiar handwriting seemed to bring him back to the time when his grandson was still there.
Wu Zicang closed his eyes uncontrollably, caressing the handwriting on the notebook as if treating a treasure.
Wen Zhe seemed a little uncomfortable with the scene, and scratched the back of his head a little uneasy.He looks like a shy big boy.
It's not at all like the rebellious appearance he showed in the chat records.
"Then what, Grandpa Wu, I was wrong to pretend that Wu Yuan lied to you before. I didn't touch any of the money, so I will return it to you now."
He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, transferred all the money, then looked at Wu Zicang who was staring at the notebook as if lost in memory, hesitantly opened his mouth and said, "Grandpa Wu... I know you are still blaming yourself, but think about Wu Yuan, he How sad it would be to know that you blame yourself so much for him now."
"When I was a classmate with him, he mentioned you as a grandfather every day. He has always been proud of having a grandfather like you, and I think he will be very happy to be able to go into the water with you to save people, Wu Yuan You, as a grandfather, should know better than me."
"He is willing to help others and will help everyone in need. From being a classmate, helping an old woman cross the road, giving money to a beggar is a trivial matter."
"Holding up a car to rescue a stray cat, helping a girl who was harassed by a pervert in the car, chasing a thief who stole something halfway, he has done nothing. If you really want to do what you blame yourself, if you didn't take him to go fishing in that river that day, everything would be fine .But what if you go somewhere else? What if he goes by himself."
"I'm not very good at talking, but what I said so much is to express that there will always be accidents in life. If I escaped that one, it will happen in other places. It is not Grandpa Wu who should blame yourself, but that A factory that does not abide by the law and discharges sewage at will.”
"According to Wu Yuan's temperament, if he sees you like this, and even spends money on the Internet to find me for comfort...he will definitely blame himself, blame himself for going into the river to save people, but he is not a person who refuses to save people... …In the end, it will definitely turn into self-blame for not exercising well…”
Seeing the old man's eyes turn red, as if he could cry at any time, Wen Zhe gradually became flustered, hurriedly waved his hands, and said anxiously, "Grandpa Wu, don't cry, I really can't speak, but I'm not That means, I mean, I just want to say... There are always accidents in life."
"You are so old, you should learn to accept accidents..."
Shen Qiu: =-=...
Well, I finally saw some shadows of chatting on the Internet.
Samoyed raised his paw and touched his forehead, and it was obvious that this young man really couldn't speak.
Liu Qing almost raised his hand to cover Wen Zhe's mouth several times.
He looked at Wu Zicang worriedly, for fear that he would be completely broken by Wen Zhe's words.
But what was surprising was that although Wu Zicang's eyes were red, he was still in a good mood.
Turning over the grandson's notebook from the beginning to the last page, closing it cherishedly and holding it in his arms, then pulled an ugly smile at Wen Zhe.
"You look so far away."
His eyes were in a daze, and he said: "For a moment just now, I thought it was Yuan'er who came back. He used to like to say that about me."
Samoyed looked up at the old man with a dazed expression. The other party seemed not as fragile as he imagined.
In fact, what Wen Zhe said may not be clear to Wu Zicang, but he was just trying to make ends meet. He couldn't accept the fact that his grandson passed away, and he was afraid that one day he would forget about his grandson.
So blame everything on himself, only the long-term self-blame can make him always remember that his grandson once existed.
Wu Zicang didn't say much, took out his mobile phone and accepted the money transfer in front of the two of them.
Then put the notebook in the bag and hand it to Wen Zhe again.
"These are Yuan'er's notebooks for three years in high school. I think they are still very useful to you. Take them back."
He smiled, "There are too many things that can be nostalgic at home, but I have been unwilling to admit the fact that he has gone, and I don't want to look at any items that belong to him at home."
"I know you're right, but I can't get out now..."
"I apologize to you for delaying your studies for the past six months."
As he spoke, he bowed to Wen Zhe, who almost jumped up in fright, shaking his hands like rattles.
"Not at all, Grandpa Wu..."
Without giving him time to speak, Wu Zicang continued, "In the future, if you have any academic problems, you can come to me. I have been in the police academy for four years, and I am not old enough to be confused about math problems. How much can it help."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Liu Qing, "I want to go back and stay quietly by myself for a while, please send Xiaozhe off for me."
Say
It was inputting first, and after about 1 minute, a picture came over, which was a high school math problem, and then a voice.
The voice sounded like it had just entered the inflection period, a little impatient and complaining.
"Today, the school issued a set of high math test papers. It's hard to die. I'm doing the papers."
The old man clicked on the big picture and squinted his eyes for a while, then picked up a pen and paper to write and draw next to it, and finally clicked on the voice to teach the other party what to do bit by bit.
In the end, he said in a kindly tone with a little comfort, "Don't be too anxious, take your time and you'll be fine. Remember to listen to the teacher in class, and come back and ask grandpa if you don't know it."
The other side quickly replied impatiently.
Although impatient, he often came to ask the old man when he encountered problems that he didn't understand.
It looks like the usual grandparents and grandchildren who are children who are impatient with adult discipline.
But Shen Qiu always felt that something was not right.
Seeing the old man put down his phone with satisfaction, he also went back to his nest and got down on the ground.
He decided to observe for another two days to see if he could see anything from the chat.
Time passed quickly, Wu Zicang's schedule was still boring, and Shen Qiu still couldn't see anything from the chat records.
But in the past few days, whenever Wu Zicang talks to his grandson, he will definitely transfer money, the minimum is fifty, and the maximum is two hundred.
The other party will only appear when you start transferring money first.
After the transfer is over, the other party will say good night.
It looked like a rebellious grandson, but Shen Qiu still found it strange.
He decided to find time to find out about this grandson.
After the day's chat was over, the old man washed and went to bed as usual. After the old man fell asleep, he unplugged the mobile phone that was charging, and then quietly opened the door and hid in the corner.
He already knew the lock code, so he tapped the numbers with his nose when his claws were not working well, and opened the phone to enter WeChat.
There are very few friends in the old man's address book, except for relatives and colleagues.
Shen Qiu slid down, originally wanting to find the old man's son's Wechat to see if he and the grandson had shared likes.
But I didn't expect to slide to the bottom to see another account with the note of grandson.
The avatar is an Ultraman, which is very suitable for the preferences of young boys.
But I clicked in and saw that there was no chat history, and then clicked to open the circle of friends.
The boys' circle of friends is very clean, only complaining about too much homework, and the math teacher taking over their physical education class.
In the first circle of friends, Shen Qiu saw a family photo.
The boy in the photo is very sunny, looking at the camera with a bright smile on his face. In front of him is Wu Zicang sitting in police uniform, and behind him is a middle-aged couple standing in police uniform.
The accompanying text is "my proud family."
This seems to be different from his grandson who has seen chat records these days,
The life of the circle of friends is the end of the previous year, and there is only such a big difference in the gap of one year?
Even adolescent rebelliousness can't be so rude.
Shen Qiu became more suspicious.
Samoyed's white brows were wrinkled, and his nose was puffing.After thinking about it, I switched back to the account of the grandson who chatted, and found the original chat history.
What surprised Shen Qiu was that the old man added this account on his own initiative.
Added at the beginning of this year.
I don't know where I found the mobile phone number. The added words are: Is my grandson short of money recently?Grandpa will transfer some pocket money for you.
Even stranger.
Even if the grandson changed his WeChat ID, why did he mention pocket money in the friend application?
After the friend passed, the old man also transferred 500 yuan in the first time, and the other side first sent a question mark and then accepted the transfer.
The subsequent chat records were no different from what Shen Qiu had seen in the past two days.
The other party was not enthusiastic, nor did they have the respect they should have for their elders.
He checked the transaction amount between the two.
It has only been half a year since adding friends, and the transaction amount has actually reached [-].
It's only half a year.
If this person is not Wu Zicang's grandson...then this amount has reached the criminal standard.
Samoyed took a deep breath, his round eyes were full of puzzlement, doubt and shock.
After hesitating for a while, Shen Qiu sent another person's grandson account "Are you short of money recently?"
Typing with dog paws is really difficult, so I can only use the tip of my nose to type in pinyin, and then press the keys one by one.
After the hard fight, delete the chat history.
If there is no response from the two numbers tomorrow morning, then you can talk to Liu Qing about this matter.
After finishing all this, Shen Qiu put the phone back as it was, and took a long time to push the charging plug with two paws.
The moon climbed into the sky, and Samoyed returned to the kennel and lay down, with his paws crossed and his chin resting on them. Connecting all the threads of this matter, a thought emerged in his mind.
When night comes, the hustle and bustle of the city fades away.
In the nursing home, there were only two nosy dogs left guarding the entrance of the cafeteria, staring at the surrounding corners with their big green eyes, not letting go of any trouble.
Suddenly, the husky rushed out and bit a small thing in the grass.
Lala didn't move at the side, and when the husky took the little thing out and was about to bite it to death, Lala finally saw the little thing's appearance clearly.
It didn't have the slightest resemblance to the mice they caught two days ago.
Lala stood up and hurriedly shouted, "Haha, be merciful!"
The husky tilted his head, his erect ears trembling, "Woo?"
"It doesn't look like a mouse."
The little thing in Haha's mouth has a long, fluffy and fluffy tail, a round face, and round ears. Although the color of the fur can't be seen clearly in the dark, it is obviously not the black and gray hair of a mouse. The biggest mice are bigger.
Probably sensing the danger, it kept struggling and moving in the husky's mouth.
Haha couldn't control it anymore, sobbing and asking Lala, "Then can I kill it?"
Lala thought for a while and shook her head, "Let's take it to the human leader."
Haha was a little discouraged, but he still held back his mouth. After making sure that the little thing would not escape or be bitten, the two dogs went to Liu Qing's dormitory side by side.
The previous lessons gave them a long memory, and this time they didn't put the little things at the door.
Instead, he knocked on the door politely.
Lala stepped forward and knocked on the door several times with her nails.
Wait for voices to come from inside before backing away.
After being woken up in the middle of the night, Liu Qing's tone was a little uncomfortable. He squinted his eyes and turned on the light, mumbling: "Who disturbs people's dreams in the middle of the night."
One side unlocked the door.
First, open a slit and look forward, no one is there.
"Wang!"
There was a dog barking below, he looked down, Haha Lala happily wagged his tail at him.
Looking at the corridor again, there is no dead mouse.
Liu Qing was very satisfied and was about to ask them what they were doing.
I saw Haha suddenly lowered his head to put something on the ground.
Immediately afterwards, I felt something rushing in from between my legs.
The other party's soft and prickly hair brushed across his ankle.
At that moment, the hair all over his body exploded, like a cat with its hair exploded, Liu Qing jumped on the ground with both feet, and shouted: "What!"
This sound was like thunder in the silent nursing home, and it was no surprise that the old people in the nearby dormitory were awakened.
Shen Qiugang was half asleep and half awake, when he heard the sound, the whole dog jumped up from the mat.
Seeing Wu Zicang wake up leisurely, and then glanced at the phone that was still charging, Shen Qiu felt a little guilty.
Fortunately, the sound was not advanced, even if it was 10 minutes earlier, Wu Zicang would wake up and see a scary scene of a dog playing with his mobile phone.
Shen Qiu was led out by Wu Zicang, heading towards Liu Qing's dormitory.
When we arrived at the place, someone had already arrived in advance. In the dark, a few old people were looking for something in the room with flashlights.
You bring reading glasses, I take out the magnifying glass, it is very difficult to find.
Not surprisingly, Shen Qiu also saw Ersha at the door who had consciously stood against the wall.
With his head down, he obviously realized that they were causing trouble again.
Wu Zicang walked over and asked in a calm voice, "What happened?"
Liu Qing looked up when he heard the voice, first glanced at Qiuqiu, then sighed, half helpless and half funny, and said, "Here, just those two guys, let them go to the cafeteria to catch mice. Good guy catches mice in the middle of the night. A creature that I don't know what it is came over and threw it at my door, and now that thing ran into the house, and I don't know where it hid."
"Not a mouse?"
Liu Qing shook his head, "It hit my ankle at the time, and it felt bigger than a mouse."
Haha whimpered softly, "We obviously showed him the new species we caught out of good intentions, why were we still wrong?" He asked his second brother very puzzled.
As for the eldest brother?He didn't even dare to take a glance, for fear of seeing his elder brother's black face.
Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Shen Qiu couldn't laugh or cry.
This time it can't be said that the second fool was wrong, the dog is also kind.
I can only say... don't trust Gouzi's brain circuits too much, otherwise they will definitely do some ridiculous things.
Several old people searched for a long time in Liu Qing's dormitory, and finally found the weasel hiding in the corner of the closet.
The other party huddled in a corner and shivered, his dark eyes filled with fear and bewilderment.
"Yo, Huang Daxian."
"This is a wild animal. Fortunately, Haha Lala didn't kill him, otherwise he would be fined for eating wild animals."
One of the old men laughed and praised Haha for his good work, which made Liu Qing quite helpless.
Several people caught the weasel and rushed it to the small woods behind to release it overnight.
The weasel was so frightened that it rushed out of the snakeskin bag and ran away with a "swish", with the word "panic" written on its back.
This midnight episode came to an abrupt end, and soon the nursing home fell into a deep sleep again.
The next day.
Shen Qiu put all his mind on the old man's mobile phone.
According to the old man's daily life, he seldom chats with people during the day, so he only replies when someone finds him.
Most of the rest of the time is spent watching news, reading books, reading newspapers, listening to the radio with a mobile phone and the like.
This day was no different.
Wechat has not been opened all day.
Obviously, the message he sent yesterday fell into the sea.
It may be possible that the two accounts are really the same person, and the reason why there is no reply is because the account is lost, the password is forgotten or something else.
But... Just in case, Shen Qiu thought about it all night, and went to find Liu Qing early in the morning with his mobile phone.
Unlocking the phone in advance, and flipping through the transaction records full of transfers with that grandson, Samoyed found Liu Qing who was playing chess with the old man with the corner of the phone in his mouth.
Wu Zicang is reading in the library right now, and he doesn't know how to look at his mobile phone, so it's the best time.
"Hey, General! I said you old guy, you can't renege on your debt this time."
"No, no, come again, another game! I don't believe I can't beat you today."
The small stone table was full of people, Shen Qiu didn't even leave a gap.
He tried to squeeze in, but was pulled out by the found old man on a leash.
They were all focused on the chessboard, and didn't notice the phone in Shen Qiu's mouth at all.
Shen Qiu felt a little helpless, put the phone by his feet and gave them two "barks".
The loud voice finally attracted the attention of the old people.
Liu Qing poked his head through the gap and asked Shen Qiu: "Qiuqiu, why didn't you go to the library with Old Wu? Did you come to play with Haha?"
Haha, who was playing ball with the old man on the grass next to him, was lying on the ground, ready to rush over at any time.
Shen Qiu groaned at him: "Don't move!"
Haha's pricked ears immediately fell down.
Shen Qiu ignored him, but lowered his head and pushed the phone in front of him, Liu Qing noticed it.
Somewhat strange.
"Whose phone is this?"
He finally walked over from the chessboard, and while picking up the phone, he told: "Don't snatch it from me, I must take this old..."
He saw the phone screen, and the transfer transactions on the screen made his eyelids twitch.
It's also a coincidence that Liu Qing was an anti-fraud criminal policeman before he retired.
These transfer records obviously touched his anti-fraud DNA.
Stopped talking, read all the records, returned to the chat box and slid to the top.
His sudden silence caught the attention of other old people, and they all came to watch.
Someone suddenly pointed to the phone and said, "Isn't this Lao Wu's account?"
As he said that, he took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat and compared, "It's really true."
"Who did he transfer the money to?"
"Grandson?"
"But Old Wu's grandson isn't..."
An old man who knew the inside story was stunned, looked at the chat record for a while, and then spit out the following words, "Did you die..."
died?
Shen Qiu was taken aback.
The others were obviously stunned as well.
Wu Zicang has only been in the nursing home for a year, because he is relatively quiet and withdrawn, and there are no elderly people who get along with him.
Little is known about him.
The reason why the old man knew this was because he was familiar with his son. He heard some things from his son and wanted the old man to help take care of Wu Zicang in the nursing home.
But I didn't expect that Wu Zicang didn't like to talk to people, and he couldn't blend in with the crowd. The old man couldn't take care of him even if he wanted to.
After he finished speaking, his brows were frowned into a lump, and his wrinkled face was serious.
"His grandson died before Lao Wu came to the nursing home, this grandson must be fake!"
Liu Qing also looked through all the records, with a serious face, but still asked, "Is it possible that they are the nephews of the brothers and sisters?"
The old man was also a little hesitant, "But look at this chat record... Which grandnephew asked the old man to transfer money before answering."
This made Liu Qing feel even more wrong.
After thinking for a while, he asked the other old people to disperse first, while he took the old man entrusted by Wu Zicang's son to the vice president's office.
He first looked for the phone number of Wu Zicang's son, but no one answered the call.
The other party's daughter-in-law is still busy.
Liu Qing frowned, looking at the only insider.
"Old Wu has a bad relationship with his family?"
The old man frowned and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I've never heard of it. Old Wu's son and daughter-in-law are both policemen. They work as criminal police and drug control in the next city. Maybe they are busy."
The criminal police and drug control are indeed very busy.
Liu Qing put down the phone and decided to understand the situation first.
"Then why did you say that Old Wu's grandson passed away?"
Samoyed, who was leaning under the desk, immediately raised his ears and concentrated.
Mentioning this, the old man first sighed.
"I know this is also because my son and Xiao Wu are colleagues, and because Lao Wu strongly requested to come to the nursing home, so please come to me..." He shook his head with regret on his face.
"It's also a crime. I have met that grandson of Old Wu. He has a good study and a good personality. He is the kind of child from other people's family in the legend..."
Shen Qiu unconsciously thought of the photos he saw in the other party's Moments that night.
Wu Zicang's grandson, Wu Yuan, was 17 when he died, and he had just finished the summer vacation of the college entrance examination.
Wu Zicang's son is named Wu Mingliang. It stands to reason that both Wu Mingliang and his wife live in the next city, so his son should also be studying in the next city.
But because Wu Zicang is here, the couple are worried about the old man, so the child transferred to this city to study in junior high school, and has been with Wu Zicang all the time. The grandparent and grandson have a very good relationship.
After the elderly retire, the old and the young often go out to play.
On the day of the accident, the two said they were going fishing, but they met someone who slipped and fell into the river.
As a former policeman, Wu Zicang's first reaction when he saw this was to throw away his fishing rod and jump off.
But Wu Yuan moved faster than him, and jumped into the water with a "plop" to save people.
The young man was fast, and when Wu Zicang passed by, the young man had already picked him up, but because the other party kept struggling to hold Wu Yuan and refused to let go, Wu Yuan's physical strength was exhausted very quickly.
Anyone who has rescued people in the water knows that when the person who fell into the water is rescued, he will subconsciously hug the person who came to save him, just like grabbing the last straw, which consumes a lot of energy.
Wu Zicang took a look, and hurriedly took over the man who fell into the water, because he was in a hurry to send him ashore, so he didn't notice Wu Yuan, he just thought that his grandson would follow behind him, and when he sent the man up, he turned around and found that his grandson was swallowed by the water film.
It was too late to rescue Wu Yuan together with the people who came to help.
Weeds were wrapped around his legs, and he drank too much water when he was struggling. A large amount of water accumulated in his lungs, which caused inflammation.
The old man sighed fiercely as he spoke, his words were full of pity, "It stands to reason that a boy of this age is physically strong and physically strong, and simple drowning will not cause death."
"But that river... was secretly discharged sewage by a factory, and the lungs were seriously flooded with water, and inflammation was caused by the polluted water..."
The old man couldn't go on.
17 years old, just took the college entrance examination.
On the day Wu Yuan died, Wu Zicang received his grandson's admission letter to the best university in the country.
It's just a pity... Wu Yuan can't go there anymore.
The room is quiet and pretty, only their heavy breathing is left.
Shen Qiu felt a little uncomfortable, and the family photo kept appearing in his mind.
The boy in the photo is full of sunshine. He is about to have a bright future, but...
"Xiao Wu and his wife came back in a hurry that day and received the news of the child's death. They were extremely sad, but even the family discussed and donated the child's body."
"The rescued person also failed to survive because the river water was polluted to the lungs."
"When the family came to thank the Wu family, they talked about the pollution of the river water. Afterwards, although the factory was fined for rectification for polluting the public security environment, the relevant person in charge was also sentenced for the death caused by the sewage. The two families also received corresponding compensation."
"But... the dead never come back."
After that, Wu Zicang blamed himself very much and took all the death of his grandson on himself. Although Xiao Wu and his wife never blamed the old man, Wu Zicang couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.
He rejected his son's proposal to live in the next city, and chose to enter a nursing home.
After the old man finished speaking, Liu Qing remained silent for a long time.
Shen Qiu didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment.
Is it anger at the factory, or is it distressing for the boy who is just young.
Someone knocked on the door outside, "Is Lao Liu there?"
It's Wu Zicang.
Liu Qing came back to his senses with a difficult expression on his face. He looked at the office door as if he was doing psychological construction, and he went to open the door after a while.
"Old Liu, I don't know where my cell phone is, please help me adjust..."
After speaking, seeing Shen Qiu, he groaned.
"Qiaoqiu, why did you come here? I just passed by the grass to see Haha. I thought you were there, did you see my phone?"
He spoke with a little smile, not a big smile, but it could be seen that he was in a good mood now.
Being able to chat with his "grandson" at night and accompanied by Qiuqiu every step of the way during the day, Wu Zicang's mood is obviously much better than when Shen Qiu first arrived.
Shen Qiu didn't know what emotion to use to express his comfort to Wu Zicang for finding a child of the same age as his grandson.
Distressed?pity?Or sympathy?
After Wu Zicang finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong in the house. He saw the old man in the house in a blink of an eye, and then saw the mobile phone in Liu Qing's hand.
"Old Liu, you..."
"Wu Zicang."
Liu Qing called out his full name seriously.
Wu Zicang was stunned, and subconsciously straightened his back.
Liu Qing wanted to say something, but he couldn't get it out of his mouth.
He wanted to reprimand Wu Zicang for corrupting the child's view of money from the standpoint of a policeman.
But when he thought of that child Wu Yuan, he couldn't say anything.
He wanted to tell Wu Zicangsi that the man had passed away, no matter how much he continued to blame himself, the dead man would never come back to life.
But...he looked at the rapidly dimming light in Wu Zicang's eyes, and thought of the corners of his mouth and loosened brows that he had seldom raised this year.
He opened his mouth for a while, but couldn't utter a single word.
He had nothing to say, but Wu Zicang took a deep breath and said, "It seems that you have discovered it."
He nodded, and regained the expression Shen Qiu had when he first saw him, his brows were slightly frowned, his eyes were dull, and his face was stern.
"I will delete that guy, and this kind of thing will never happen again. As for the money I transferred... I don't need to ask for it back. Just take it as a thank you to the guy for chatting with me every night."
Liu Qing's helpless face immediately became serious again.
"Old Wu, you are a policeman, don't you know that this situation will affect the child's view of money?"
"Let him feel that money is so easy to earn, what if he goes astray in the future."
"And if the other party is not a child, if he takes your money, it's a fraud, you know?"
Wu Zicang didn't speak, he lowered his head, his hands were hanging by his sides, his hair was white, and his figure was stooped.
He seemed to be standing alone in a huge shadow, not in the same world as the people around him.
With just such a speechless figure, Shen Qiu felt a deep sense of sadness.
His heart was a little stuffy.
The pure white Samoyed squeezed away Liu Qing and approached, rubbing his head against the old man's hand hanging by his side.
Wu Zicang looked over, and the originally black and gray world had a touch of extremely bright white.
He rubbed Gouzi's head, looked at Gouzi's flickering comforting eyes, and took a deep breath.
"That card is the campus card of Yuan'er School. Only students have it. It's probably a child younger than Yuan'er."
"I added it with the mentality of giving it a try. I transferred the money first, and it has nothing to do with that child. You...be more tactful."
After he finished speaking, he licked the dog's head and turned to leave.
He was caught by Liu Qing with quick eyes and hands.
"Wait! Just watch from the sidelines. When this matter is settled, I still have something to tell you."
Wu Zicang resisted a little, another old man immediately stepped forward and pushed him on the sofa in the office, he had no choice but to sit down and wait.
Seeing him sitting down, Liu Qing turned his eyes back to the phone. They chatted for a while, and the screen was locked, so he asked Wu Zicang: "The password."
Wu Zicang said a number first, and then he was a little puzzled, "You don't know how to open the phone with my password?"
"The phone was turned on when Qiuqiu brought it over..." He paused, and suddenly realized a problem.
The phone is not locked, so Wu Zicang must be using it, but the phone has been lost for almost half an hour, why did he think of looking for it.
"Ball? How did you get the ball?"
"Where do you keep your phone?"
"It's on the bedside table in the room, that's why I asked you to adjust the surveillance to see who has entered my room."
Shen Qiu: ...
Silently shrinking his body, his eyes fluttered.
As long as there is no evidence, you don't know it's me!
Liu Qing and Wu Zicang checked each other.
Wu Zicang's cell phone was locked and placed in the dormitory, but when it was in Liu Qing's hands, he not only unlocked it, but also logged in again from the exited software, and just clicked on the transaction record of the chat history...
The two old men narrowed their eyes and looked at Shen Qiu suspiciously.
The Samoyed who sat upright watched his nose, nose, and heart, as if he couldn't understand their conversation.
But who here is not human?
What the two old men had seen as policemen was probably a little worse than Shen Qiu's rebirth.
Liu Qing nodded Samoyed's head, "I'll find you when the matter is resolved."
Samoyed shrank his head, inexplicably guilty.
Liu Qing held his mobile phone for a long time to think about it. Considering that the other party was still a student, he finally chose a compromise and sent it: "Hello, I am a friend of the owner of this account."
It took about ten minutes for the other party to reply.
A question mark was sent first, and then the dialog box showed that it was typing, which lasted for about a minute.
It had been so long that Liu Qing wondered if the other party was looking for some excuse.
There was a message over there.
"I didn't touch the money that Grandpa Wu sent me. It's all in this account. I'm in class now, and when school is over at noon, I'll come to the nursing home to look for you. By the way, I'll bring the notes that Wu Yuan left here with me."
At first, I thought it was some child who was fascinated by money for a while, but now it seems...the other party not only knows Wu Zicang's identity, but also obviously knows Wu Yuan.
If the other party is not lying, then his intentions are obvious.
Pretending to be chatting with Wu Yuan and Wu Zicang to comfort the old man who lost his grandson.
The office was silent for a long time, which was broken by Wu Zicang's self-mockery.
"I thought I was spending money to find comfort, but in the end it was a child who comforted me with lies."
Wu Zicang seemed to want to laugh, but failed, and only showed an expression uglier than crying.
"It's because I delayed that child."
Seeing that his mood was depressed again, Shen Qiu hurried over.
Rubbing his head on his lap, and putting his hands on his head with his paws, Samoyed hummed twice, his eyes full of comfort.
Wu Zicang touched him, "Qiuqiu is really smart."
The voice was choked with sobs.
Shen Qiu was really afraid that this old man would think wildly because of these.
He even wondered if it would have been better if he had figured it out at the time and hadn't exposed the matter.
But then he thought again, if he didn't bring this matter to the surface, Wu Zicang would always be in the mood of self-blame, and he would be unhappy in the days to come.
This is not what the dead Wu Yuan wanted to see.
The soft Samoyed almost put his whole body on the old man's lap, humming as if he was saying comforting words.
Liu Qing took a deep breath and was about to speak when his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and glanced at Wu Zicang, then turned and went outside to answer the call.
The call was from Wu Mingliang. After he told the current situation, there was a long silence.
"I thought Dad had already let go...I didn't expect that he went to the nursing home just to find a place to punish himself..."
He sighed heavily, "I've recently taken on a big case and couldn't leave. I'll let my wife go back. Uncle Liu, please help me take care of my dad."
The police don't always have much time to spend on their own.
After hanging up the phone, they waited in the office for another hour, and there was a message saying that they had already rushed to the nursing home.
Liu Qing went out to pick up the person.
As soon as Liu Qing went out, Wu Zicang stood up uneasy, stood in front of the window and kept looking out.
Probably because he saw someone coming, he sat on the sofa again, hugged Shen Qiu and kept touching him.
Shen Qiu could feel that he was nervous, and his nervous palms were covered with sweat.
The other old man has already gone back, and there is only one person and one dog in the office.
Seeing the footsteps approaching outside, Wu Zicang suddenly said: "I dare say that I am a good policeman in my life, but I am not a good father or a good grandfather. Now I am not even a good old man."
He was blaming himself, not only for Wu Yuan's death, but now also that strange child who pretended to comfort him for half a year.
Shen Qiu couldn't speak, so he could only rub his head against him, trying to make him feel more at ease.
"Squeak."
The door opened.
A boy in a school uniform and a schoolbag came in, and he was carrying a bag in his hand.
The first thing I saw when I came in was the old man on the sofa.
Wu Zicang stood up a little restlessly, wiped his palms on the seam of his trousers, but his lips were tightly pursed and his face was serious, looking serious.
The boy came over and called Grandpa Wu very politely, "My name is Wen Zhe, and I used to be Wu Yuan's classmate."
He rubbed his head as he said, looking a little embarrassed, "But my grades are not as good as Wu Yuan's, and I'm still repeating."
He handed over the bag in his hand again, "This is the note that Wu Yuan sorted out for me before, and I want to take it back as a souvenir for you."
Wu Zicang's serious face loosened a little.
He took the bag and took out a notebook from it, and opened it.
The familiar handwriting seemed to bring him back to the time when his grandson was still there.
Wu Zicang closed his eyes uncontrollably, caressing the handwriting on the notebook as if treating a treasure.
Wen Zhe seemed a little uncomfortable with the scene, and scratched the back of his head a little uneasy.He looks like a shy big boy.
It's not at all like the rebellious appearance he showed in the chat records.
"Then what, Grandpa Wu, I was wrong to pretend that Wu Yuan lied to you before. I didn't touch any of the money, so I will return it to you now."
He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, transferred all the money, then looked at Wu Zicang who was staring at the notebook as if lost in memory, hesitantly opened his mouth and said, "Grandpa Wu... I know you are still blaming yourself, but think about Wu Yuan, he How sad it would be to know that you blame yourself so much for him now."
"When I was a classmate with him, he mentioned you as a grandfather every day. He has always been proud of having a grandfather like you, and I think he will be very happy to be able to go into the water with you to save people, Wu Yuan You, as a grandfather, should know better than me."
"He is willing to help others and will help everyone in need. From being a classmate, helping an old woman cross the road, giving money to a beggar is a trivial matter."
"Holding up a car to rescue a stray cat, helping a girl who was harassed by a pervert in the car, chasing a thief who stole something halfway, he has done nothing. If you really want to do what you blame yourself, if you didn't take him to go fishing in that river that day, everything would be fine .But what if you go somewhere else? What if he goes by himself."
"I'm not very good at talking, but what I said so much is to express that there will always be accidents in life. If I escaped that one, it will happen in other places. It is not Grandpa Wu who should blame yourself, but that A factory that does not abide by the law and discharges sewage at will.”
"According to Wu Yuan's temperament, if he sees you like this, and even spends money on the Internet to find me for comfort...he will definitely blame himself, blame himself for going into the river to save people, but he is not a person who refuses to save people... …In the end, it will definitely turn into self-blame for not exercising well…”
Seeing the old man's eyes turn red, as if he could cry at any time, Wen Zhe gradually became flustered, hurriedly waved his hands, and said anxiously, "Grandpa Wu, don't cry, I really can't speak, but I'm not That means, I mean, I just want to say... There are always accidents in life."
"You are so old, you should learn to accept accidents..."
Shen Qiu: =-=...
Well, I finally saw some shadows of chatting on the Internet.
Samoyed raised his paw and touched his forehead, and it was obvious that this young man really couldn't speak.
Liu Qing almost raised his hand to cover Wen Zhe's mouth several times.
He looked at Wu Zicang worriedly, for fear that he would be completely broken by Wen Zhe's words.
But what was surprising was that although Wu Zicang's eyes were red, he was still in a good mood.
Turning over the grandson's notebook from the beginning to the last page, closing it cherishedly and holding it in his arms, then pulled an ugly smile at Wen Zhe.
"You look so far away."
His eyes were in a daze, and he said: "For a moment just now, I thought it was Yuan'er who came back. He used to like to say that about me."
Samoyed looked up at the old man with a dazed expression. The other party seemed not as fragile as he imagined.
In fact, what Wen Zhe said may not be clear to Wu Zicang, but he was just trying to make ends meet. He couldn't accept the fact that his grandson passed away, and he was afraid that one day he would forget about his grandson.
So blame everything on himself, only the long-term self-blame can make him always remember that his grandson once existed.
Wu Zicang didn't say much, took out his mobile phone and accepted the money transfer in front of the two of them.
Then put the notebook in the bag and hand it to Wen Zhe again.
"These are Yuan'er's notebooks for three years in high school. I think they are still very useful to you. Take them back."
He smiled, "There are too many things that can be nostalgic at home, but I have been unwilling to admit the fact that he has gone, and I don't want to look at any items that belong to him at home."
"I know you're right, but I can't get out now..."
"I apologize to you for delaying your studies for the past six months."
As he spoke, he bowed to Wen Zhe, who almost jumped up in fright, shaking his hands like rattles.
"Not at all, Grandpa Wu..."
Without giving him time to speak, Wu Zicang continued, "In the future, if you have any academic problems, you can come to me. I have been in the police academy for four years, and I am not old enough to be confused about math problems. How much can it help."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Liu Qing, "I want to go back and stay quietly by myself for a while, please send Xiaozhe off for me."
