After setting up a stall on Tianqiao, the metaphysics boss made her money like crazy

Chapter 115 Innocent Heart 3
Yan Qing has been here for so many years, and he has seen many things like the Yan family.

In fact, Second Aunt Yan was sober enough. After realizing that her husband was not her reliance, she resolutely gave up and put all her thoughts on her daughter, only to ensure the money for the rest of her life.

But it was also because she was too awake, cared too much about herself, and looked forward to Yan Jiaojiao's success, which led to Yan Jiaojiao's current situation.

...

That night, as soon as Yan Qing went downstairs, he ran into Yan Xiuwen who had come back.

Yan Xiuwen's eyes were tired, and when he saw Yan Qing, he asked casually, "Drink milk?"

Yan Qing nodded, "Well, do you want supper?"

Yan Xiuwen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

It was still a bowl of noodles with green vegetables, and it was placed on the kitchen table. Yan Qing, who had paid the bill, sat beside him, waiting for Yan Xiuwen to finish eating before washing the dishes.

While waiting, remembering that Yan Xiuwen had not come back so late for several days in a row, and that Yan Shu often whispered about the orphanage in her ear, he asked by the way, "Did you find out anything about the orphanage?" ?”

Yan Xiuwen stopped eating noodles, "No."

The two were talking in unison.

"If you need my help, I can lower the price." Yan Qing, who hadn't received a job for several days, said.

Recently, because of that interview video, WeChat has suddenly received a lot of friend applications, and even calls more than a dozen a day.

They all said that they had jobs and wanted to find themselves, but they were all fake. I went to see him twice, not saying that I was from a media company, but that I was from a film crew and wanted to recruit actors.

As of today, she has turned off her mobile phone for almost ten days, because there are people squatting there every day in the old place, and she can't go to the stall.

Delay her from making money.

Only then did Yan Xiuwen look up at her, "Didn't you get a job?"

Yan Qing smiled, "Little uncle can see through without revealing."

At this moment, Yan Qing has already forgotten the meeting when he first met Yan Xiuwen, and even said that he would not accept Yan Xiuwen and so on.

Yan Xiuwen didn't pursue the past with her, took out his mobile phone, transferred a sum of money to Yan Qing directly, and said in a deep voice, "Come with me to the orphanage tomorrow."

After receiving the money, the corners of Yan Qing's lips raised slightly, "No problem."

She counted the zeros on her bank card balance, her eyes were crooked, and she didn't pay attention to the smile in Yan Xiuwen's eyes.

...

Early the next morning, Yan Qing went out with Yan Xiuwen just after breakfast.

When I arrived at the orphanage, I found that Xiao Zhang was already there.

I have already searched the only paper materials left in the orphanage for nearly ten years, and visited the people nearby, but I have not gained much. So far, the identities of the three skeletons have not been found.

Xiao Zhang sighed, "There are many things in this orphanage that are not perfect, and the list of personnel has only been registered one by one in the past two years."

How could it be so easy to find out what happened more than ten years ago, let alone three children.

Today, it can only be estimated from the degree of ossification and the wall that the three corpses were built in about 17 years ago.

However, there have been quite a few people who have been reported as missing over the years, and it is really not an easy task to investigate them one by one.

What's more, these three children may not be the missing persons in the report at all.

Yan Xiuwen asked in a deep voice, "Have you asked the director of the orphanage?"

Xiao Zhang: "Not yet, just preparing to go there."

Seeing that Yan Xiuwen was not the only one who got off the car, Xiao Zhang's eyes lit up, "Is Miss Yan here to help?"

If Ms. Yan could help, then these things would be much easier and more convenient!

Yan Qing was still not sure what Yan Xiuwen wanted him to do, so he nodded slightly, "It should be."

Yan Xiuwen in front of him glanced back, "Aren't you following up?"

His voice was deep, and his emotions could not be heard.

Only then did the two catch up with Yan Xiuwen in front of them.

...

Dean Feng is a kind-hearted middle-aged woman in her 50s, who is affectionately called the dean's mother by the children in the orphanage.

"Do you remember about 17 years ago, there were any missing children in the orphanage?"

Dean Feng thought about it seriously, but still shook his head, "I don't remember, there shouldn't be any. If a child is missing, our courtyard will definitely call the police."

Xiao Zhang has long been used to this kind of answer. In the past few days, I have interviewed so many people, including the old dean, old employees, and even the children who were adopted 17 years ago. .

The only paper documents left in the orphanage did show that there were only five children in the orphanage.

And the three built in the wall seem to have popped out of nowhere now.

Yan Xiuwen's eyes fell on a few scattered photos of the five children back then, and asked, "Is there no group photo of all of them in those years?"

It stands to reason that the orphanage will take a group photo every year as a commemoration and keep it on file.

But in this orphanage, there is not a single photo taken more than ten years ago.

Dean Feng sighed, "No, there are only a few photos."

Yan Qing looked at the photos, which contained the figure of the dean in front of him, and asked curiously, "Do you have children?"

Dean Feng was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect Yan Qing to suddenly ask, "...this?"

She looked at Yan Xiuwen and Xiao Zhang, not knowing whether this question was related to this case.

Yan Xiuwen said in a deep voice, "You can answer whatever she asks."

Dean Feng then said, "I have a son, but he passed away in an accident more than ten years ago."

When she mentioned her son, there was a look of sadness in her eyes.

After coming out of the dean's office, the three of them were eating in the small cafeteria. Xiao Zhang asked curiously, "Miss Yan, why did you suddenly think of asking the dean if he has any children?"

Yan Qing picked out some of the photos and put them in front of the two of them, pointing to a close-up photo of Dean Feng holding a child in the orphanage, "In these photos, Dean Feng is wearing a wooden bracelet. I have seen people wearing this kind of bracelet with a special pattern, and it is worn by the mother, which means to protect the safety of the child with a bad body, which is a local custom."

"This kind of bracelet cannot be easily removed, and it has an ominous meaning."

As she said that, she turned out several other photos and put them away, "But you see, in the next few years, in the photos, Dean Feng never wore this bracelet again."

"So I guess, she may have had a child, and something may have happened during this period, and she died."

"After the child died, Dean Feng took off the bracelet."

Hearing what Yan Qing said, Yan Xiuwen and Xiao Zhang took a serious look at the photos featuring Dean Feng, and found that there were indeed bracelets in the photos before 06, but since 06, there have been no bracelets up.

And judging from the photos, after 06, Dean Feng's smile also decreased significantly, and it didn't gradually increase until later.

Xiao Zhang gave Yan Qing a thumbs up, "Miss Yan, you are really observant. If you come to our bureau in the future, those old tricksters will definitely rush to take you!"

Yan Qing smiled and remained silent.

Yan Xiuwen next to him flipped through each of the photos. The time when the three skeletons were built into the wall was probably in 06. The child of Dean Feng, who was working in the orphanage at that time, died unexpectedly.

What a coincidence.

Yan Xiuwen said in a deep voice, "Xiao Zhang, find out how Dean Feng's child died, and in 06, the five people in the courtyard will have to ask again to see if they know about it."

Although it is not certain whether it is a clue, but a coincidence, it can be used as a breakthrough.

Xiao Zhang patted his chest, "Understood, I'll check right away."

After Xiao Zhang left, Yan Qing drank the water, the corners of his lips slightly curved, "I thought that my little uncle brought me here today because he wanted me to set up an array to summon souls like before."

After all, in this way, the identity of the deceased does not have to be so hard to check.

Yan Xiuwen said in a deep voice, "Shouldn't this kind of thing be done at night?"

Yan Qing smiled, "That's true."

When the two came out after eating, they happened to see Dean Feng surrounded by several children in the yard, and everyone called her Dean's mother kindly.

"Dean's mother, why don't you play with us for a while." A little boy took Dean Feng's hand and acted coquettishly.

Dean Feng smiled and said yes, knelt down and wiped the dirt on the children's faces with his hands, and then patted off the dust on their bodies because of their playfulness.

From Dean Feng's smile and demeanor, it can be seen that she really likes these children.

Yan Qing suddenly asked, "A long time ago, I heard two friends discussing the issue of good and evil in human nature."

She glanced at Yan Xiuwen, "Little uncle thinks, is human nature good or evil?"

Hearing this, Yan Xiuwen turned to look at her, "You are asking about the good and evil of these children."

His tone was affirmative.

Yan Qing smiled, "Yes."

Neither of them spoke again.

After playing with the children, Dean Feng came from the yard and met Yan Qing, who disappeared.

Yan Qing asked again, "Dean Feng has been in the orphanage for so long, do you think human nature is inherently good or inherently evil?"

Dean Feng was taken aback for a moment, lost his mind, and then smiled, "You asked a lot today."

"The questions are getting weirder than the last one."

Yan Qing smiled, "Ask casually, if you feel presumptuous, you don't have to answer."

Dean Feng shook his head, "Good and evil are difficult to define, but if you look at it from the child alone, it's much simpler."

"These children are like pieces of blank paper, and people around them can add something to the blank paper."

Yan Qing followed Dean Feng's eyes, looked at the children who were chasing and playing in the yard, and laughed sweetly.

Yan Qing's voice was soft and his tone was flat, "So, did Dean Feng add anything to the white paper?"

Dean Feng looked at Yan Qing in a daze, and didn't speak for a while.

Yan Qing didn't ask any more questions.

It wasn't until Yan Xiuwen came back and asked some more about 17 years ago that the two left the orphanage.

That night, Dean Feng took out a book from the locked drawer, and there was a photo in the interlayer of the book.

She rubbed her fingertips on the photo, as if remembering what happened many years ago.

The photo is very old. There are eight children standing on it, and the old principal is standing in the middle. The year is written on the back, and it was taken on June [-], [-].
