Himemoto's interpretation

The car approached the place where the pit was planted the day before, Uncle Wang deliberately slowed down, Xingqi sensed it and looked up.

The road construction sign with yellow characters on a blue background is the first to catch the eye. The fluorescent warning line is square around the wet mud pool, occupying half the width of the cement road, and the two-way lanes only leave the outer lane that can accommodate one car.

There were three minors in the car, passing through the four to five meter long road, the speed was not much faster than walking, Xingqi turned her head unconsciously.

The part where the front of the car was planted the day before yesterday was filled, and there is obviously a difference in color from the semi-dry part around it.

"Finally put up the sign."

Uncle Wang responded casually: "At that time, the eldest lady took you first, and I contacted the relevant units here. It is a standard procedure to build roads and put up notice boards. People say that it must have been released, and it may be someone who is careless. Withdrew. There are only two or three cars on this road a day, and it is estimated that the folks in the village have festivals and are playing pranks to deceive people."

It is not known whether the speaker has intentions or not, but the person who listens to it has intentions in his heart.

In the place where the old director said there had been no vicious crimes in 80 years, who would deliberately engage in such life-threatening pranks?

Xingqi couldn't think of too complicated things, but the farther she was from Huai'an Town, the farther she was from the detective.The things in my heart seemed to be misplaced into a burlap sack with a hole, and I walked all the way and leaked all the way. When I suddenly realized, there was only a feeling of emptiness left.

The cement road tends to be straight, and Uncle Wang slowly speeds up the car.According to the old driver's skills, there should be no sense of acceleration when speeding up, but Xingqi leaned back unconsciously, the attraction from Huai'an Town was about to move, clamoring that she must find her lost things in the same way.

"Uncle Wang stop!"

The sudden voice made Uncle Wang suddenly forget the professionalism of the old driver, and slammed on the brakes.

"I'm going back to Huai'an Town, you guys go back first, be careful on the way." Xing Qi said quickly while unfastening her seat belt, before her words fell, she had already put on her small bag and got out of the car.

Before Uncle Wang said I would take you back, the man had already jumped down the slope, like a hare being chased by a hound, and disappeared down the mountain road with a whiz.

He shook his head with a smile and called the eldest lady.

"Well, as soon as I mentioned the sign, I went back, and I didn't even have time to stop it. I took the path."

The small town of Huaian is surrounded by mountains, but the mountains are not majestic, and the riverbed that dries up during the dry season is not beautiful either.The weeds with the most vitality are green and wilted in one crop, and the reason is that the soil is not fertile enough.The mountain fields seen by the human eye are one piece after another, and the crops planted in spring are sluggish, and the gap between them and the local promotional posters is comparable to that of buyers and sellers.

The backing is not enough to eat, so people develop the ideal of "the world is so big, I have to go and see it". It is said that Huai'an Town is a densely populated area with a radius of [-] miles, but what Xingqi sees is full of bleakness and desertedness. No contention is whitewashing, and isolation is reality.

Flying all the way across mountains and ridges in a straight line, seeing the crooked signboard of the Super 9 Hotel in the distance, Xingqi breathed a sigh of relief, touched her forehead, and was drenched in sweat.

There was a steep slope of nearly four meters under my feet. When the cold wind blew, I suddenly calmed down.

It was the detective's order to return to Haicheng, how should I explain to her that he suddenly turned around and came back?

He didn't intentionally disobedient, and honestly, he was about to leave Huai'an Town, that is——

There are clues.

Yes, the clue that the road construction notice board was artificially removed.

The height of the steep slope does not require rolling to unload. Xingqi tightened the straps of the small bag, and saw clearly that the small open space below was clean and free of gravel and dirt. With a step forward, she jumped down vertically like that.

After falling to the ground, Xingqi took out a portable tissue from the side pocket of the small bag with her backhand, and while walking towards the hotel signboard, wiped off the sweat on her head and neck with a wet tissue.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of breaking through the air from behind.

Xingqi conditioned her head to avoid it, then rolled on the ground, facing the dirt slope she jumped off earlier when she got up.

"Oh." The detective in the shadows smiled, his eyes were as bright as ever, "I want to come back and tell me that the sign was removed, right?"

The detective assistant who was robbed of his lines was not at all embarrassed, and he gave a thumbs up in admiration, "You have a plan."

The detective walked out of the shadows in a few steps. Today she was dressed in an outdoor outfit that is easy to move. Xingqi stared at those legs, thinking that walking like the wind might be faster than this speed, but in terms of lightness and pleasing to the eye, it is nothing more than that.

But her hands were stronger than her feet, Xingqi's ears felt hot.

"Where's the phone?" The voice seemed to be in the shadows, with a hint of coolness.

Xingqi took out her mobile phone from her bag, and said "ah" belatedly.

Even if she travels over mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground, she still lives in a modern society where technology is changing with each passing day, and the traffic consumed by a single sentence cannot keep up with the sweat she sheds all the way.

"I've been thinking about this reason for a while, is there anything else?"

Xingqi rubbed her chin with the back of her hand, followed the detective's words, thought hard for a while, and thought of one, but after tasting it, she felt that it was really shameless, so she looked at her eagerly, "It's just that I don't trust you alone."

"Don't worry, this is different from the last time, no one will shoot sniper in the back." The detective let go of his hand, still holding a piece of verbena candy in his palm, "That is to say, there is no chance for you to be a hero."

"I don't want to be a hero." Xingqi lowered her head and took the green leaf candy, without thinking, "It's better not to be a hero."

The detective frowned, "Who kept saying that they wanted to protect this and that?"

"You misunderstood." Xingqi pushed the sugar aside, and the other side of the detective's cheek bulged faintly, "The promise to protect you will remain unchanged for 100 years, but I don't think it's better that you don't need protection." .”

Because needing protection means being in danger.When a crisis breaks out, although there is a certain chance that she will be useful, it will have a bad psychological impact after all.

The blood circulation promoted by exercise is good for health, and the rapid heartbeat caused by fright may lead to heart disease.

"For the detective's physical and mental health, I hope that the assistant will not be useful for 100 years." Xingqi clasped her hands together, respectfully and solemnly making her most sincere wish towards the blue sky.

The detective squinted at her for a while, and raised and lowered the raised brows slightly.

The words are not crooked, and they are a bit wise and stupid.

"Let's go."

Xingqi breathed a sigh of relief seeing the detective's brows and eyes stretched, and it sounded like he didn't intend to send her back to Haicheng.

Seeing that the red pinnae were more shiny than the wild flowers blooming on the steep slope behind her, her heart moved.

"You go first."

The flowers bloomed at a height of about [-] meters from the ground. Xingqi took a look, started running on the spot, jumped, and stretched out her arms——

It was at least thirty centimeters away from the five-petal red flower.

Looking back, the detective didn't seem to pay attention to her. Xingqi tried again unwillingly, and the place where her fingertips could reach was still 25 centimeters away from the target.

"Rabbit." At the fourth time, the detective who couldn't stand it stopped the assistant, "The compacted soil lacks elasticity, want to practice high jump and go back and buy you a trampoline?"

Xingqi who was caught straight was extremely ashamed and indignant: "I'm not a rabbit."

Not anymore!

"I can jump from 12 meters, why can't I reach [-] meters?"

"Have you ever thought that the upper limit of jumping is limited by height?"

"..."

Returning to the Speed ​​9 Hotel, Xingqi quickly got rid of Gai Ding’s frustration about birth defects, because the detective moved the small bench and put it in the window facing the funeral home, and told the assistant, “Sit down and don’t move, someone will come in and tell me.” .

Then put on the earphones by yourself, hold a game console-like machine and shake the joystick left and right.

Xingqi could sit still, but her curiosity grew lately, the sun tilted thirty degrees to the west, she quickly turned her head to glance at the detective, and asked, "Who are you waiting for?"

"Waiting for someone to claim Hu Xingjun..." The detective paused, "That."

Hu Xingjun's lucrative part-time job is not just playing house with underage girls. Apart from the second and third sisters of Ha Xiao, he also has erotic transactions that can be traced.

Hu Yixuan should have discovered her brother's second job recently, so she reprimanded him in public and transferred back his "dirty money" that night.

The local investigators claimed that there was only one road from Huaicheng to Huai'an Town. Hu Yixuan and Hu Xingjun did not return to their hometown with no strong evidence for the time being, and their life and death are still unknown.

However, Huaicheng is also a prefecture-level city with a population of nearly one million. It is not impossible for a 16-year-old high school student to make up his mind to break up with his brother who is a cowherd, give up his studies, and find a small black factory to do hard work.

Huaicheng is not as dense as Haicheng, and the monitoring network is not so dense. If she is still in Huaicheng, official channels may not be found soon.

So, it's best to let her come forward on her own.

The small town of Huai'an is relatively closed, the efficiency of grassroots officials is low, and the traditional folk customs of being buried in the soil have remained unshakable for decades in the vast wilderness.

According to relevant regulations, the victim's body will be cremated and preserved in the funeral home if no immediate family member claims it after the identification.

However, the dedication of the victim Hu Xingjun surpassed that of ordinary cowherds. He signed the body donation form a year ago and has registered in the system.

"I sent a thank you letter to all of Hu Yixuan's contact channels, deeply mourning her misfortune, and at the same time commending her brother's selfless dedication to enriching the teaching specimen bank of Haicheng Medical College, not to mention shining through the ages, at least ten or twenty years. The silent teacher." The detective looked calm, "If she can't accept it, as long as she claims it within the time limit, there is still a chance to bury him."

Although it is used for education, can a little girl born in a scholarly family accept her brother's body for countless students to "look at" and study?

After listening to her commentary, Xingqi was tongue-tied and mumbled for a long time, even her breathing became timid.

"The deadline is tomorrow night. You can watch it." The detective squeezed the back of the assistant's neck, telling her to turn back and keep an eye on the funeral home.

"That is to say..." Xingqi tried to turn her attention to other places, such as the peaceful and peaceful Buddha statue and cross in the afterglow of the setting sun, such as the sandalwood and magnolia incense lingering around her nose, "You think Hu Yixuan is fine, and she doesn't know yet Brother had an accident?"

"Yes." The detective squeezed the rabbit's ears, took a small stool and sat down beside her, "Don't be afraid."

"No," Xingqi nodded vigorously, "I'm not afraid."

"Really?"

"Really...really." Xingqi stuffed a piece of hard candy into her mouth.

"I never thought what Teacher Silent is?" The detective said with an inexplicable smile, "I never thought what Teacher Silent does?"

Xingqi: "..."

Xingqi: "Not just now!"

There is now.

Not to mention that the detective came up to her ear and blew softly, and said viciously: "You are here to watch tonight, and sleep when you are sleepy. As for me, I will sleep next door."

The warm breath suddenly turned into a cold air that made the hair stand on end.

"No, don't!" Xingqi hurriedly reached out to grab her, "Don't!"

"Aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid." Xingqi was about to cry, "I'm sure I won't be able to sleep if you're not here, I will have nightmares, I came back because I was afraid of having nightmares... I'm sorry, I was wrong..."
