"what happened?"

Shen went straight to look at the house number. Zhou Youming walked back to Xu Qian. Looking at her increasingly pale face, he immediately became serious, "What did you remember?"

He raised his eyes to look at the door that was locked by a big rusty lock. He was about to raise his hand to push it, trying to look into the courtyard through the crack in the door, but then Xu Qian suddenly turned around and glared at the brand new door god diagonally opposite. black painted wooden door.

After a long time, she tremblingly raised her arm and pointed at the ferocious-looking door god, gritting her teeth and saying, "Here. This is here."

Shen Zhi was about ten meters away from them, looking at the unclear house number on the wall and making a phone call. He didn't hear Xu Qian's voice, but he noticed her movements.

Shen Zhi hung up the phone and walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Youming also looked at the door and said slowly, "She seems to have remembered the place where she escaped before."

Is that the place where Gaga was once imprisoned?

"Are you sure?" Shen Zhi asked.

Xu Qian took a moment to regain her composure. She turned around and looked at the not-so-big stone lion again, "In my memory, I ran out of the gate and turned right as my mother instructed. At that time, there was firelight shining from the courtyard. I saw this stone lion with its nose and one eye missing. The door was locked at that time, and there seemed to be no one in his house."

Zhou Youming said to Shen Zhi, "Check this one too."

Shen Zhi nodded, and then the two of them looked back at the family next to the door god.

Shen went straight forward and knocked on the door. After several "pah pah pah" sounds, there was no movement inside. Shen Zhi continued to shoot, and it took a while before he heard intermittent coughing and cursing, "I want to die, why are you shooting in broad daylight? You son of a bitch keeps pushing me every day, and I won't move. Let's see how you can move me." How about it."

She thought it was the demolition office that came to urge her to move.

"I said, no matter how much money you give me, I won't move. If you don't move, you won't move. You son of a bitch."

No matter how much money you pay, you won’t move?
  Just to wait for your son?

Shen Zhi and Zhou Youming looked at each other. The latter took two steps back and leaned against the wall. When the old lady approached and was about to open the door, Zhou Youming stretched out his hand and jumped up. He was easily hoisted to the top of the wall, and then climbed up with a little effort. wall.

Having been an instructor for more than ten years, this skill is not in vain.

When the old lady opened the door and walked out, Zhou Youming jumped in quietly.

"cough cough"

The old lady who came out was stooped, her face was full of wrinkles, and her gray hair was tangled together. It looked like she hadn't washed her for an unknown number of days. As soon as she got close, a strange smell came out, which made her heavy and heavy. Take two steps back.

Regretful, he should have changed with Lao Zhou. After all, he was more experienced than him in investigating cases.

"What are you doing? Cough cough cough."

Shen Zhi forced a smile and said, "Auntie, are you sick?"

"none of your business?"

The wrinkled face stared at Shen Zhi fiercely, "Get out of here, I told you I won't move. If you want, just bury me in the yard."

"Auntie, the street office said there is a letter from your son, why don't you go and get it?"

The old lady had a severe cough. In addition to bad breath, her breath also contained a sense of heat. Combined with her cloudy and sometimes confused eyes, and the less obvious red color on her shriveled skin, Shen Zhi concluded that she had a fever. .

So if you tell her that there is a letter from her son at this time, she will most likely believe it. Sure enough, when Shen Zhi said this, the old lady was stunned for a moment, but strangely, there was no surprise on her face. Instead, after a while, she lowered her head and murmured to herself in a somewhat reproachful tone, "How do you write this?" Did you believe him? Didn't you tell him not to write letters or make phone calls? If you are so disobedient, you are trying to get shot."

Before she finished the last sentence, the old lady Mu Ran woke up with a start. She glared at Shen Zhi, "I understand. I will go and get it later. You can go."

Shen Zhi:.
  It seems that he was really burned and his brain was unclear, but he still believed it. But that's not important, what's important is her words.

Since she was waiting for her son, why wasn't she allowed to write letters or make phone calls?
  And the last sentence, why take a gun? Take a shot?
  Shen Zhi's eyes suddenly shrank, and his eyes flashed sharply, but he quickly hid them again.

He glanced sideways at Xu Qian, who shook her head slightly at him. She had no impression of the old lady and wanted to take a look at the yard. However, even though the old lady was not very clear-headed, she was still very cautious.

The door was only opened just enough for her thin body to walk out, and when her feet stepped out of the threshold, the door was closed again.

It was as if there were some rare treasures hidden in her house that outsiders couldn't see.

"Mom, have you had your physical examination this year?"

Seeing the old lady turning around to go back, Shen Zhi had an idea and said quickly, "Everyone over sixty will get a free physical examination. Have you gone?"

The old lady paused in turning around and said blankly, "Is the physical examination free? When did it start?"

When does it start?
  There will definitely be some in a few years.

He said seriously, "I started last month. If you haven't done it yet, you have to hurry up. It's already December now."

He rambled here and there, looking in through the small cracks in the door from time to time. Until Zhou Youming appeared in his sight, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stopped talking.

Zhou Youming came out of the courtyard with a sullen face. Behind the old lady, he opened the two doors to the end. With the old lady's stunned eyes unresponsive, he said straight to Shen, "Human skeletons were found under the West House. It doesn't feel like they are..." For a person, please let the forensic doctor take a look at the specifics."

Shen Zhi called the team and then pushed aside the old lady who was blocking the way and strode in.

"Hey, what are you doing? Who the hell allowed you to come in?"

The old lady staggered behind the two men and watched them enter the room. She suddenly seemed to be frozen and stood still. The panic and despair on her face were obvious.

At the same time, Xu Qian stood still with a look of fear on her face.

After stepping into this courtyard, the same familiar feeling as seeing a stone lion came to my face.

I don’t know if it’s because of a guilty conscience, but the yard hasn’t been touched much for more than ten years. Except for the aging and peeling of the floor and walls, the rest basically maintains the pattern and condition of more than ten years ago. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there is no money to move.

"What are you going to do? What are you going to do?" The old lady repeated this sentence over and over again as if she was stupid.

Xu Qian turned her head and stared at her with red eyes, "They are the police, what do you think they are going to do?"

".police?"

After saying these two words, the old lady rolled her eyes and fainted.

In the west room, the wooden bed placed against the wall has been moved to one side. A pile of incense candles are scattered on the floor. Next to it is a broken pot with no visible color. Unburned ingots and the like can be clearly seen in it. paper money.

The bricks on the ground were pried up, and when I looked in not too deep, I saw a gloomy white bone emitting a faint cold light in the cold and damp room (End of Chapter)
