It was almost noon after coming out of LOFT, but no one had an appetite for lunch, because Wu Xingyu's breakfast was so solid, a bunch of people ate for more than two hours, and they were [-]% full without knowing it.

Even Xiao Su, a food insulator, ate two tea eggs, a lotus leaf cake with steamed meat, and a bowl of soy milk with two deep-fried dough sticks in a daze.

It was enough to keep up with his usual daily meal intake.

Rong Rui drove the car out of the basement and asked, "Are you sleepy? Take you home to rest?"

Xiao Su's mind was full of Luo Cai's case. Although he was tired, he didn't want to sleep at all: "Didn't Lao Sun ask you to investigate Ma Qiang's situation? How?"

"Go to the household registration section of the Municipal Bureau to check his nearest place of residence, and then contact the local police station and street office to inquire about the situation." Rong Rui said, "If you have a job, check the unit, and then search his real-name online account..."

It sounded boring, Xiao Su asked: "Shall I go with you?"

Rong Rui shook his head and said, "No, it's all trivial work, and you won't be able to help if you go. By the way, isn't school starting the day after tomorrow? Don't you need to prepare?"

Speaking of the start of school, Xiao Su suddenly realized: "Yes, I almost forgot about this. I have to go to a meeting in the department tomorrow to report on the work plan for the new semester."

"You didn't write a single word, did you?"

"..." Xiao Su was speechless, he really didn't write a single word.

"It's okay, there are still two days left, there's still time." Rong Rui glanced at him sympathetically, and said, "I was like this when I was young, and I finished my winter vacation homework two days before school started."

Xiao Su wanted to cry, but as a top student, he would finish all his homework every time he was on vacation, and then he would do all kinds of review and preview!

The older you get, the worse you get.

At 12:30 noon, Xiao Su was escorted home by his upright younger brother and ordered to rush home for the winter vacation.

The house was quiet, Xiao Ran and Fang Huize both went to work in the company, and Aunt Liu was doing her two-meter by four-meter masterpiece cross-stitch in the living room—Huangguoshu Waterfall, Xiao Su felt dizzy for a while.

Even my aunt is so motivated, so as a teacher, I can't be too behind. Xiao Su gathered his energy and went back to his room to start writing his new semester teaching plan.

Fortunately, the frameworks were all done last semester. This semester, you only need to change the look and insert some new content into it. Xiao Su filled out the book while flipping through the book. It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, so he saved the copy and went downstairs for activities. Make yourself a cup of tea.

Longan, wolfberry, American ginseng... Xiao Su habitually picked up a few supplements according to the recipe posted on the refrigerator. When the water boiled, he suddenly remembered that the recipe was written by his mother.

Fang Huici is not a careful person. She has been used to being taken care of by her family since she was a child. When she was young, she really did not touch the spring water. It was not until Xiao Qin and Xiao Su fell ill one after another that she began to make supplements and medicated diet according to various health books , studying nutritional diet with Aunt Liu...

This prescription was obtained from an old Chinese doctor when she was on a business trip the year before last, and she copied it carefully and pasted it on the refrigerator when she got home, so that Xiao Su could drink it every day.

In fact, this kind of thing is just a psychological comfort, good pure water with these auxiliary ingredients, the taste is so strange that it is difficult to swallow, but Xiao Su still honestly makes such a cup every day.

Sometimes, not only patients need psychological comfort, but family members need it more than them.

Xiao Su took down the formula casually, and looked at Fang Huici's handwriting. Her handwriting didn't look like it was written by the president at all. It was round and smooth, exuding a cute and delicate taste.

In fact, before Hsiao Chin was bedridden, Fang Huici was really just a cute and delicate little woman, she was not doing beauty and fitness shopping every day, or playing wildly at home with her two children.Xiao Su remembered that when Xiao Ran was four or five years old, he especially liked playing peek-a-boo. Every time he played, he would hide in remote places such as attics and garages, but Fang Huici did the opposite, hiding in Xiao Ran's place every time. In my room, under the bed, in the closet...

The strange thing is that Xiao Ran can find his brother every time, but he can't find Fang Huici, a naughty mother.

He couldn't help being angry and didn't understand why he always failed. Fang Huici smiled and said to him: "It's called darkness under the lamp, silly son, the safest place is often the most dangerous place, if you want to hide, you have to hide under her nose." Bottom, where she is most likely to overlook."

Playing a game can also play out the philosophy of life... Xiao Su smiled and sighed, put the formula sheet back on the refrigerator, and pressed it with a magnetic sticker.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, and Xiao Su's eyes suddenly widened—it was dark under the lamp!

Fang Huici, will you hide that boxwood box in the most dangerous and safest place?

"Squeak—" the kettle screamed piercingly, Xiao Su turned off the fire, poured hot water into the stewing beaker, and carried the cup up to the second floor.

Undoubtedly, that box contained things related to Fang Huize, so Fang Huici took it away that summer vacation.But those things must be very important, otherwise Fang Huici would not have brought it back after he left the country.

According to her personality, if she wanted to hide, she would definitely not choose places like attics, study rooms, and garages that everyone could think of. She would probably do the opposite and hide under Fang Huize's nose as before.

Xiao Su knocked on Fang Huize's door and called, "Uncle?"

No one answered, he probably hasn't come back yet, Xiao Su twisted the doorknob, the door was unlocked and opened easily.

This room and Xiao Su's room are located symmetrically on the second floor, so the layout is exactly the same, [-] square meters in size, with a desk, bookshelf and small sofa on the south side, and a bed and an open cloakroom on the north side.

Xiao Su looked around, and found that Fang Huize had brought back very few things, a few folders were randomly thrown on the desk, two books on psychology, some clothes he often wore hung in the cloakroom, and nothing else .

It doesn't feel like coming back for a permanent residence at all, but like a temporary stop.

But when he first came back, he didn't say that...

Xiao Su was a little puzzled, and looked around for a place to hide the box.It's impossible to be under the bed or in the cloakroom, it's too easy to be discovered, Fang Huize is not four-year-old Xiao Ran after all.

Open the bathroom door, there is only a bathtub, shower partition and countertop inside, which are often used and cannot be used to hide things.

Wait... Xiao Su suddenly noticed the suspended ceiling above his head. This room was decorated earlier. The ceiling was made of aluminum buckles, and an integrated heater and lighting system were embedded in the middle.

The aluminum gussets are put together one by one, and the top is a [-] cm high light steel keel bracket, which has a strong bearing capacity and can completely hide a boxwood box.

Xiao Su stepped on the edge of the bathtub, slowly removed an aluminum gusset, and scanned it with his mobile phone. Unfortunately, it was empty and there was nothing on it.

Thinking about it, the bathroom environment is hot and humid, and the wood is easily deformed by moisture. It is really not a good place to hide things.

But this idea is correct, the space inside the ceiling is larger than expected.Xiao Su put the aluminum gusset back, went back into the house, stood under the inspection hole of the central air conditioner, looked left and right, and planned to remove the louver cover to have a look.

This villa uses central air-conditioning, and all pipelines and circuits are finally sealed with a light steel gypsum board ceiling.The suspended ceiling is the same as the aluminum buckle ceiling in the bathroom, which is more than 30 centimeters thick, so it should be able to hold the box.

Xiao Su stacked two stools together, stepped on them unsteadily, removed the blinds, and scanned back and forth in the ceiling with the flashlight of his mobile phone.

Suddenly, the light was blocked for a moment, Xiao Su squinted his eyes to look carefully, and vaguely saw a square shadow more than one meter away from the maintenance opening.

Is that it?

Xiao Su visually inspected it, and found that it was too far away, so he had to take a ladder, stand on it and use tongs or a hook to pull it out.

Just as I was about to go downstairs to get the ladder, I suddenly heard the door of the living room rang, and a familiar footstep came in, followed by Aunt Liu's voice: "Ah Ze is back? Why is it so early today?"

Yes, why is it so early today? !Xiao Su was going crazy, his legs trembled and almost fell off the stool, he frantically put the shutters back, and put the stool back to its original place, Fang Huize's footsteps had already reached the door.

"A Su?" Fang Huize came in with a computer bag on his shoulders, and was very surprised to see Xiao Su, "Why are you here?"

Xiao Su tried his best to calm down his heartbeat, holding the stewed beaker and said: "I just finished writing the semester plan, and made a pot of my best wolfberry longan American ginseng tea, and I will share it with you."

Fang Huize looked at him suspiciously for a while, then looked around.Xiao Su's heart beat faster, and he glanced at the louver cover from the corner of his eye, making sure that no one had touched it at all.

"Just make it up." Fang Huize sneered, put the computer bag on the desk, and said, "You just don't want others to live a good life, so you tricked me into drinking your Buddhist health tea? I think about it. It's nauseating."

"It's okay. My mother specially asked for the prescription for me. Come and taste it. I won't give it if others ask for it." Xiao Su gave him half a cup.

Fang Huize held his nose and drank it, "Bah, bah, bah," said: "What kind of smell is this? It's like soaking a piece of printing paper."

"No, it's very sweet with goji berry and longan." Xiao Su said against his will, seeing that his expression was normal, he slowly relaxed, "Actually, I was passing by, so I came to your room to see if there is anything good Things just go straight."

Fang Huize said: "Am I stupid? With someone like you at home, how would you keep good things in the house? How many handicrafts and out-of-print books were taken away by you when you were young!"

The two of you came and went to attack each other, Xiao Su asked: "By the way, your assistant, how is your family doing?"

"I don't know, he was released on vacation recently. After all, something like that just happened at home." Fang Huize said, "But I heard that the case of his father and his uncle seems to be repeated. He hasn't been released yet, no I know what the police do."

After a pause, he asked Xiao Su again: "By the way, that Rongrui, does he still live at home after school starts?"

Xiao Su subconsciously nodded, Fang Huize hesitated for a moment, and said, "Either way, let him go back to school. A Su, I shouldn't gossip about him behind his back, but...you don't think his attitude towards you is a bit too... Is it too ambiguous?"

Xiao Su didn't feel anything wrong, his face was a little hot, and he said slowly: "Ah? No, no."

"You can see that you are stuttering, and you are just guilty." Fang Huize said, "You also feel it yourself? He treats you completely beyond the student to the teacher, and the younger brother to the elder brother. He can't be gay, right?"

"..." Xiao Su nodded and shook his head.

"That's all I'm saying, don't take it too seriously, after all, I don't have a good eye." Seeing his embarrassed face, Fang Huize said again, "Anyway, pay attention to yourself in the future, in case he wants to do anything to you Get rid of any thoughts you shouldn’t have. No matter at home or abroad, this kind of thing is very taboo in universities. It’s not easy for you to be a teacher safely, so don’t get yourself into trouble.”

His tone was entirely in the parents' favor, so Xiao Su could only nod his head.

It was almost ten o'clock when Rongrui came back at night, Xiao Su heard him say a few words to Aunt Liu in the living room, and seemed to praise her "Huangguoshu Waterfall", and went upstairs after a while.

"Not asleep yet?" He poked his head in, "Have you finished your homework for the winter vacation?"

Xiao Su was annoyed by him: "That's a work plan, what kind of winter homework, am I a primary school student?"

"Finished?"

"It's almost there, just change it tomorrow." Xiao Su beckoned him in, "How's the investigation going?"

Rong Rui closed the door with his backhand, walked to the king's glass tank to do daily tasks, and said, "Ma Qiang is dead."

"Scared?" Xiao Su was taken aback, "He died too? When did it happen? Could it be the twelfth day of the first lunar month?"

"No, he died 17 years ago." Rong Rui whispered, "Like everyone else in this case, he died violently."

"Did he die?" Xiao Su was terrified, "Someone killed him?"

"Yes, the police's inference is that his domestic violence was excessive, and his wife Wang Guiyu held a grudge against him and ordered her lover to kill him." Rong Rui said, "The reason for saying 'inference' is because this legendary lover has been killed until now. He was never found, and the people in the village didn't know who he was."
