Himemoto's interpretation

Xingqi whistled to attract Yang Xiaomi's attention.

On the day when the Taoyuan family was disintegrated, Yang Xiaomi alone tamed dozens of giant vicious dogs running wildly, not for nothing - the girl lost half of her ear, and her wounds were full of scars.Viewed from the side, it looks extraordinarily cold and unpopular.

Hearing the whistle, Yang Xiaomi turned her head to follow the sound.Xingqi keenly captured the unclear smile, which was somewhat jerky and fleeting, but it was the natural expression of emotions of eighteen or nine-year-old girls.

The memo contained an investigation report on Yang Xiaomi.

Evidence showed that she did have a record of intentional injury.

Yang Xiaomi came to Haicheng and worked in a factory producing quick cutlery in the suburbs.A roommate who shared a locker in the same dormitory borrowed an online loan with her ID card, neither telling her nor repaying the loan on time.

After the repayment period, the online loan company called Yang Xiaomi one after another.She questioned her roommate, but the latter denied it in every possible way and insulted her in words. It is conceivable that Yang Xiaomi made a move.

The roommate admitted in front of the intermediary leader that she had borrowed the money, but at the same time she said that she was unable to repay the high debt with rolling interest.

At that time, Yang Xiaomi told the leader that the workers must pay part of their monthly wages to repay the loan. The leader agreed and asked the workers to sign a letter of commitment.However, what she didn't expect was that the next day, the leader fired the roommate who borrowed money when she was at work.

The roommate resigned and disappeared, and the debt is still in Yang Xiaomi's name.

Yang Xiaomi, who was being pressed for debts, couldn't find a roommate, so she went to the leader.

Afterwards, the leader half-coaxed and half-deceived her into the Taoyuan family.

Xingqi guessed that although the detective asked her for help, although he didn't mention any compensation on the surface, he must have helped her solve her debt problem in private.

After being abused by the Taoyuan family, Yang Xiaomi may not accept other people's kindness in a short time.

The two passed by, and Xingqi handed her a note.

In the center is a string of handwritten phone numbers, with different numbers and fonts. In the lower right corner, "Pan Shuitong" is written squarely.

"WeChat is a mobile phone number, and her address is in the signature."

Yang Xiaomi turned her head very quickly, a drop of rainwater hit her on the forehead, and she couldn't hide her astonishment.

"Teacher Xia is there." Xingqi smiled and pointed to the location of the detective, "But it doesn't matter if you want to leave now."

There were bursts of thunder, and the branches and leaves swayed with the wind, which quickly covered the brisk figure of the girl crossing the forest.

Eventually, she'll accept it.

Everything will be better.

"How can you be so chatty, you guys, I'm almost starving to death."

As soon as she was seated, Chang Ying heard her husband complain.

Having said that, Zhao Libin picked up a crystal elbow and brought it to her mouth, "Daughter-in-law eat first."

Chang Ying looked at her husband and paused for a long time, Zhao Libin couldn't wait to shake his chopsticks as a reminder.She came back to her senses, took the food whole, covered her face and patted him, "It's outside, don't be ashamed."

"My daughter-in-law is the biggest outside." Zhao Libin said with a smile, as if he didn't realize that his left eye kept blinking, only the left eye, very unnatural.

Some people experience nervous twitches when they are under too much stress.

Chang Ying had never seen her husband like this before.

Zhao Libin has something to hide from her.

Chang Ying picked up the glass in front of him, took a sip and tasted it was white wine, then threw it out the window and replaced him with pure water.

Married to Zhao Libin for almost 15 years, she didn't see another side of her husband until midnight last night.

How afraid of being regarded as a "doctor" is, even a video with a child can make this 1.8-meter-high man roll off the bed in fright.

The way he snatched the phone in a panic was really like a thief who was caught on the spot.

Maybe it's a dog jumping over the wall.

Chang Ying often watches the detective's videos, and remembers that she has a "one week" theory - the detective always promises the client to complete the agreed matter within a week, and she does have a convincing charm.Therefore, when approaching the agreed time limit, people related to the event will have two opposite emotional tendencies, positive and negative.

One is peace of mind and joy because it is about to be released; the other is because it is about to be exposed, and its performance is quite different from usual.

According to Chang Ying's statistics, there are quite few positive examples, usually the latter.

Chang Ying extended the theory of one week to the dead line effect.

Last year, the company's performance declined for two consecutive quarters. Chang Ying expanded the performance management system to the entire company and set performance appraisal standards for all employees in different ranges.

The effect is generally unsatisfactory.

On the one hand, the order volume has rebounded significantly; on the other hand, the technicians who have not completed the indicators in the previous quarter and entered the assessment period became emotional in the second quarter and passively slowed down their work.An old engineer whom Chang Ying particularly respected even drank and made trouble during working hours, and complained to Chang Ying's father in private.

Dad blamed Chang Ying for being confused and putting too much pressure on skilled workers.

But her husband comforted her by saying that the times are different, and if you don't force her, you will never know the potential of people.

Who would have thought that Zhao Libin's ability to withstand pressure was nothing more than that.

It turned out that the husband had been suppressing dissatisfaction in his heart all the time, thinking that his relatives and friends looked down on him, and called him a Phoenix man behind his back.

In fact, in everyone's eyes, Zhao Libin is enthusiastic, upright, serious and hardworking, and considerate of his family. He is recognized as a model husband.

Chang Ying had no way of knowing where those dark thoughts and speculations came from.

Therefore, everyone has shortcomings, and her husband is no exception.

Zhao Libin picked some of her favorite dishes into the bowl.

Chang Ying hesitated, wondering if she should take her husband's abnormal behavior as an overreaction under special circumstances.

The on-screen countdown shows 4 hours and 14 minutes.

Soon, Chang Ying thought.When the time came, she immediately arranged for a helicopter to take her husband home.

After all, this was the last meal for 24 hours, and everyone pretended to be something. The young master came to the table and held the wine bottle and did not let go. Chen Xi, who was the most talkative, just focused on eating.

Suddenly there was the sound of ping-ping-pong-pong beating on the light alloy plate outside the window, one after another.

It's raining.

The lights in the room flickered a few times and were about to go out.

The heavy rain drifted into the window and wet her back, Chang Ying carried her clothes on her back several times, Zhao Libin remained indifferent.

The room was stuffy and hot, and it was not realistic to close the window. She switched to Zhao Libin's other side, looked at the screen for the fourth time, and found that only 10 minutes had passed.

4 hours 3 minutes.

Light bulbs buzz and the screen flickers.

Suddenly, the lights and the screen displaying the countdown went out together.

The room was as dark as night.

It took a few seconds for Chang Ying to adapt to the darkness, and the dim light from the kitchen door illuminated her vision.

Sister Su said, "There is a torch in the kitchen, I'll get it."

When she came back, she carefully avoided everyone's eyes. The bright light of the flashlight turned around on the ceiling, and she found a position that relatively illuminated most of the space and put down the flashlight.

"It's probably thunder, and the power is cut off for protection. Sister and brother go away."

Don't panic just after saying that, Chen Xi kicked the leg of the table without warning, and stood up abruptly.

Chang Ying was almost scared out of her wits by her, "What are you doing?"

"You..." Chen Xi's tone was erratic and dragging, with the white light of the flashlight diagonally below, adding a bit of gloom, "Didn't you notice... there are many people... in the kitchen...?"

Chang Ying didn't look in the direction she said at all, and pushed her angrily, "Can you stop making such a joke!"

Sister Su was still calm, took the flashlight, turned around and called out tentatively: "Xiaomi?"

The person who came out of the kitchen was wearing a raincoat, and the rain hat that covered her face was dripping water. When the light passed, she stretched out her hand to cover her eyes, and only her nose and one corner of her lips were vaguely visible.

"Oh, Xiaomi." Sister Su put the flashlight back.

Yang Xiaomi was erratic, and she appeared like a ghost this time. Chang Ying murmured in her heart that she was scary, but she didn't say anything when everyone kept silent.

However, when she turned her head, she found that her husband was still staring at the little girl who had completely disappeared into the shadows.

"What's wrong?" Chang Ying touched Zhao Libin.

"No, nothing."

A flash of lightning split the dark sky, and the peripheral vision was endless.

Chang Ying saw clearly, and he blinked again.

"Old Zhao!" Chang Ying stomped on him under the table, wishing to split his head open and get in to see what her husband was thinking.

Amidst the roaring thunder, Zhao Libin picked up his rice bowl and whispered to his wife, "Go up when you're full. No matter what happens below, don't come down."

Chang Ying couldn't stand his sneaking around, and was about to have an attack, when suddenly she felt a pair of cold eyes shooting from a place she couldn't see, swimming around her body like a poisonous snake, hissing and swallowing long letters.

She looked at the six people sitting around the table. The familiar friends all had yin and yang faces, half in the light and half in the dark.

After a while, the sound of rain and thunder suddenly disappeared, only the sound of the soles of shoes falling on the floor, and Yang Xiaomi entered the kitchen.

It wasn't the same as when she appeared, the footsteps of leaving were unusually heavy, as if it was some kind of reminder.

what happens?Chang Ying thought blankly.

"What happened?" someone asked.

Chang Ying trembled, wondering how she could say what she was thinking, and then suddenly realized that someone else was asking the question.

The young master looked at Zhao Libin in a daze, "What do you want to do?"

He was close to Chang Ying, and his words entered his ears smoothly, and he couldn't avoid it, "You let Yingzi go up, what, what do you want?"

Zhao Libin got up immediately, pulled his wife behind him, and pushed her towards the stairs, without taking his eyes off the young master, "You know it well."

The young master staggered to his feet, pointed at Zhao Libin's nose with the hand holding the wine bottle: "You open the skylight and speak honestly!"

Seeing his wife's figure disappearing into the narrow stairs, Zhao Libin grinned, with a ferocious and cold expression: "The thief has nothing to do with your old man!"

The young master clenched the neck of the bottle and swung his head at Zhao Libin, "Say the fuck again!"

After all, he was half drunk, and his staggering figure was easily countered by Zhao Libin, who was born in the army.

The young master's upper body was pinned on the dining table, and his right face was smashed into the plate. He struggled a few times, but he couldn't break free. Panting, he looked up to find Sister Su. The nearly fifty-year-old had an aggrieved expression on his face: " Miss Su!"

Sister Su avoided his request for help.

"Xiao Zhao..." Sister Su paused, then called him "Li Bin", "I see you had a drink just now..."

"I'm very sober." Zhao Libin snorted, "I don't know if others don't know, how long do you want to protect him? Is he really that important to you?"

"It's not the same thing, it's not what you think." Sister Su said with a wry smile, perhaps because the flashlight emphasized the lighting effect, and the facial wrinkles could not be hidden.

The upper body of Xiao Hou Ye was controlled, and he kicked wildly with his feet, but he couldn't break free three times, and Zhao Libin kicked him in the hollow of his knee, forcing him to kneel on one knee.

Zhao Libin showed no sign of letting go, "Do you trust him, or indulge him?"

Sister Su sighed, "I believe in Young Master."

"Yo!" Chen Xi snapped his fingers, "There is rain, there is wine, there are stories..."

Sister Su waved her hands in the air without temper, "Don't mess up."

"No, to be honest, I think our scene is more suitable for a thriller and suspense movie." Chen Xi became interested, and patted Wan Hongzhou on the shoulder briskly, "What did Teacher Shuaihong say?"

"Actually..." Wan Hongzhou, who was suddenly named, rubbed his nose, his eyes wandered among the three, and for some reason, he glanced at the latecomer who was quietly eating in the shadows, "Frankly speaking, I agree with Brother Zhao."

He shrugged, "Before my family lost things, they also had contacts with Lord Hou."

The young master no longer struggled, and there was a strange wheezing sound from his throat.

The sound gradually expanded before people could tell it was laughter.

Disappointment to despair, despair to madness.

Sister Su stepped forward to pull Zhao Libin: "Let him go!"

With one hand, Zhao Libin pinched the fat back of the young master's neck, and with the other hand, he cut his hands backwards, as solid as a rock.

The young master laughed enough, coughed a few times, and slowly spit out a sentence.

But only halfway through his words, Zhao Libin suddenly exerted his strength and submerged half of his head into the soup basin.

The little marquis said, "Zhao Libin, you asked me for the money I borrowed..."

"Which money? How much!?" Chang Ying screamed, and then she walked down the stairs and came to her husband in a few steps, trembling all over, "When did you borrow money?!"

The moment Zhao Libin heard Chang Ying's voice, he was in a panic, and said in a panic, "No, no, what are you doing down here, go up!"

"I know you have something to hide from me." Chang Ying forced herself to remain calm, "We...the couple have something to do, sister Su, can you..." She turned her eyes to the kitchen, "Go inside first?"

Sister Su looked down at the limp little Hou Ye, shook her head, and dragged Chen Xi into the kitchen without saying a word.

After closing the heavy metal door, Chen Xi asked Sister Su "how" with his eyes.

Sister Su didn't speak, she raised her chin and pointed at the person in the raincoat behind the dining table.

Chen Xi didn't understand Sister Su's meaning at first, the man raised his hand and scratched a few times before he touched the brim of his hat, took off his rain hat, and revealed a pale face.

"rabbit?"

Xingqi pressed hard on the pulsating scar on the back of her head, "It's me."

In fact, she didn't hear Chen Xi calling her clearly.

It was nothing like what she had imagined.

What she wanted was to enter the room, pretend to be Yang Xiaomi, watch the whole process, and wait for the results of the anonymous voting to catch the doctor by surprise.

But the actual situation is not subject to subjective will.

The moment she entered, she knew who the doctor was.

That's right, there is one and only one Doctor.

He just glanced at her casually like that, as if he saw through a hasty disguise that she was not Yang Xiaomi, but his slave for many years.

that person……

Numerous pictures interlaced in front of the eyes, and sounds hit the eardrum one after another.

She saw the sarcasm in the man's eyes and the sneer on his lips.He raised his glass and even tipped it toward her in a gesture.

"Yes, rabbit, you dare to come back blatantly."

The back of the head was suddenly slapped, not heavy, but then he was rubbed a few times like a ball of hair.

Xingqi begged for mercy, but Mr. Chen was still puzzled, and his fingernails slapped on his forehead, "Why are you crying? Do you still feel wronged?"

"I'm not wronged." Xingqi protected her head, pointing to the camera above the window sill, "That's right, that..."

Chen Xi withdrew his hand abruptly, turned around and stared at her with his head down, "How dare you complain?"

Xingqi: "...No, no, no, no, no, no. That's what Mr. Chen taught you."

Having said that, it was her fault that she took away the Boshan stove and jade pendant without saying hello, so she sincerely apologized to Mr. Chen, saying that someone would contact her to return the things in the next two days.

"When the jade is finished, it will be yours, Mr. Xu, and when the stove is finished, it will be mine." Chen Xi said, "If you break a corner, you will pay double. Did you hear that?"

Xingqi nodded timidly, and then said thank you in a low voice.

If it weren't for Chen Xi, she might not be able to recover for a while.

Even in the past so many years, some things slowly surfaced with the full recovery of memory.

She almost plunged headlong into the nightmare of the past.

The doctor has countless ways to get her to steal things——

For example, if she doesn't follow suit, many children will go hungry;

Another example is that someone else will punish her for doing something wrong: she just went to the commune, she cried secretly in the middle of the night because she missed her grandfather, and ended up taking her elder sister to sing a lullaby all night, until her voice was hoarse, which made Xingqi's hair stand on end. Afraid to cry;

Another time, she wanted to escape, but it was another person who was punished to kneel. The elder brother who took care of her was fined to be exposed to the scorching sun. The elder brother was sent to the first aid because of dehydration, and he was never seen again.

It is too difficult for a helpless orphan to escape the control of others.

It's too easy to control a helpless orphan and turn her into an obedient wooden person.

Xingqi couldn't help but wonder whether it was because the doctor was a master at manipulating people's hearts, or because her will was so weak that the doctor could take advantage of it.

She was interrupted by Chen Xi before she figured out the trick.

Chen Xi didn't hear her silent thanks, so Sister Su asked abruptly at this moment: "Is the person you're looking for old Hou Ye?"

It didn't sound like the detective told her, Xingqi was slightly surprised, "He claimed to be Lord Hou."

"Is the little duke involved?"

Xingqi hesitated for a while, and replied, "Probably not."

"okay, I get it."

Sister Su felt relieved, bent down, straightened up again, and shook her head.Some body language and expressions are quite meaningful.

Chen Xi thought for a moment, then frowned, "You said old Hou...you already knew?"

"Before..." Sister Su lightly thumped her lower back, her voice matched the sound of rain, she looked down at Xingqi, "I guessed it."

Xingqi read guilt from her eyes, "Sister Su?"

Sister Su touched her head and sighed in her throat, so her voice was slightly bitter, "I'm sorry."

Xingqi was puzzled: "Sister Su, why are you apologizing?"

"What's your name, Sister Su? Aunt Su." Chen Xi put his hands heavily on her shoulders, "I'm poor."

Xingqi: "Huh?"

Xingqi was very puzzled by Mr. Chen who was not in harmony with the low pressure.

She subconsciously raised her head to look at the camera and touched her ears. There was still no echo from the hidden earphones.

Sister Su turned around and asked, "Xiao Shang, the son-in-law of the Chang family and Xiao Wan, do you recognize who is the doctor?"

Xingqi nodded, let out a long breath, and was about to say the name, the ground suddenly shook, and there was a loud noise from outside the kitchen, followed by the crisp sound of scattered dishes falling to the ground, and a woman's scream.

"You are in the kitchen, don't open the door, stay away from the windows."

The detective's voice sounded through the earphones, and Xingqi jumped up, pulling Chen Xi away from the window.

Before Chen Xi could stand still, he heard the loud noise of rain, and a circular depression suddenly appeared on the window glass, and spider web-like cracks spread out in an instant.

"Damn it!" Chen Xi, who came to his senses, grabbed Xingqi, "Quickly, who is it?"

Xingqi said the person's name.
