I collect cultural relics in the human world

The confusion and hesitation in the woman's eyes became even worse. He Si couldn't stand it any longer. She walked up to Fan Yu, thinking about how her senior brother Han Jun usually spoke, and smiled at the woman: "Hello, we are from the neighborhood committee, Mr. Li Qingli In our database of lonely elderly people, we are here today to firstly understand his current situation and secondly to express our condolences to him."

Although He Si is immature, she is the most normal among the three from dressing to speaking and doing things. Coupled with the natural trust between women, the people in the room relaxed a little.

"Look for Li Qingli. He went to the back garden to watch people playing chess. He may not come back until lunch."

"You have quite a lot of extracurricular activities," He Si praised, pretending to put the fruit she had brought on a small table in the house, and struck up a conversation with the woman, "What are you preparing for?"

"Oh, Li Qingli's medicine, he will take it before taking a nap."

"Is he sick?"

"Hey," the woman sighed and pointed to her brain, "Alzheimer's disease."

He Si heard this and Lao Chaofeng looked at each other.

If he could really forget everything and live in confusion, it would be a blessing for Li Qingli, who was now alone.However, patients with Alzheimer's disease will gradually forget the immediate events, but their memories of past events will become clearer and clearer, such as the death of their daughter eight years ago.

Of course, as the disease gradually worsens, this pain will eventually disappear into the depths of memory, and all encounters in the world, whether painful or happy, will be restored to a blank sheet of paper, as clean as when they were born.

A person will experience three deaths in his life: jumping from a building, being buried in the ground, and being completely forgotten... Now the only person in the world who still has the memory of Li Jiahui is this old man, and when he has the memory of his daughter in his mind After everything in her also died, the universe was prehistoric and the world was in chaos, and there was no trace of her coming.

This family bloodline has completely died out.

A great and majestic sorrow suddenly welled up in He Si's chest, and she never looked back.She thought of those three cases. Perhaps for Li Qingli now, if he didn't take revenge, he would never have the chance to take revenge again.

While thinking about it, the woman in the room also divided the medicine. It was not easy for her to chase away guests, but it was also not easy to leave a few people alone in a room without an owner. The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while.

At this time, it was Fan Yu's turn.

"After chatting for a while, you still don't know what to call me?"

"My name is Wong."

"Nurse Wang, there's something I want to know about." Fan Yu walked up to the woman and said, "When did his illness begin? Don't get me wrong. Mainly, before we came here, the database hadn't been synchronized yet. I want to come." There was some oversight."

"It's normal if it doesn't happen," the woman said without any doubt, "It just started recently."

The dream and the case had only started recently. The time was right, and the suspect was about to be confirmed, and He Si had even more mixed feelings in her heart.

"is it serious?"

"It's just the beginning. I occasionally forget things. Mainly because my temper has become a lot worse." Nurse Wang frowned, as if recalling something unhappy. "But the medication has been very effective recently."

"This seems to be a double room. Does he have a roommate?"

"I used to live with his wife..."

"By the way, his wife seems to have left last year," Fan Yu nodded to express understanding, "Has he been out recently?"

"Get out?" The nurse immediately shook her head without thinking, "He used to go out for a walk, but now who looks like this, who dares to let him out."

"That's true. Do you have strict access control?"

"Do you think he would sneak out alone?" Nurse Wang immediately heard the implication of Fan Yu's words, "We don't care about it, because most of the people living here are elderly people who can take care of themselves. It is considered a retirement community, but it is not Prison, but I come here every day to help him prepare medicine, and he has been staying in the hospital."

"That's right, Nurse Wang is a meticulous person," Fan Yu nodded immediately, "By the way, do any relatives or friends usually visit him?"

"His son-in-law would come before, but when you mention it, I haven't seen him for a long time." The woman shook her head, "The old man is pitiful. Alas, my daughter left early and my wife is no longer here, but these two days There are quite a few strangers looking at him.”

"Stranger?" Fan Yu looked at the woman after hearing this, and saw that it was clearly written in her eyes that you are not the ones, so he changed his words and said, "Is there anyone else besides us?"

"He's also an old man. He said he was his former colleague."

Fan Yu nodded, knowing that he had delayed the person in front of him for a long time, and said quickly: "Nurse Wang, you have to go to work elsewhere. Can you give us some directions? Let's go to the back garden and have a look."

Seeing several people asking to leave, Nurse Wang breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on her face: "Let's go together, I'm just going to pass by there."

Several people left the one-bedroom apartment with bright and clean windows, went downstairs, and followed Nurse Wang to a small park between the two buildings.It is said to be a small park, but it is actually an open space. A small pond was dug, a few koi carps were raised, a few camphor trees were planted, and a pavilion was built at the end of a winding corridor.

The weather is very good today. The bright sunshine has driven away the meager chill of early winter. Several old people are playing chess in the pavilion. Li Qingli is among the people watching chess.

"It's right there," Nurse Wang said, raising her hand and pointing far away, "Let me introduce it to you."

"No need, you are busy..."

Before Fan Yu finished speaking, he heard a loud shout: "Old Li!"

She shouted, and half of the people in the pavilion turned around. However, Li Qingli remained indifferent and walked over quickly. Fan Yu and others could only follow quickly.

"Old Li," Nurse Wang patted Li Qingli on the shoulder, "These are community workers who came here especially to express condolences to you."

The silver hair glowed golden in the sun, and the old face turned around reluctantly.

"Do I know you?" Li Qingli's face was full of resistance, as if he was searching for traces of several people in his fading memory.

"It's from the community," Nurse Wang emphasized again, turning to Fan Yu and the others, "I'm going to leave now, you guys can talk slowly."

"Thank you." Fan Yu nodded at the hurriedly leaving figure, then turned to Li Qingli, "Hello, we are community workers, and we came here to visit you today."

"I don't need to visit." The old man said firmly. The good mood of watching chess was broken. He turned and left the pavilion. Fan Yu could only continue to follow.

Compared with Fan Yu's efforts, He Si's pace slowed down.

The moment she saw the old man's face, the confidence she had just built in her heart about the suspect in the case began to disintegrate. The face of the man in front of her did belong to an old man, but it was not the old man in her dream.

Maybe cultural relics can change a person's characteristics. For example, she saw Lin Huan who turned into Magu. He Si found excuses for all this in her heart, but she couldn't convince herself for a while.

"That's not right." He Si lowered her voice and said to Lao Chaofeng, just in time to see Lao Chaofeng turn to her with a frown. "Did you pay attention to his room just now?" Lao Chaofeng fell two steps behind and asked He Si softly.

"This...don't remember."

Just now, He Si was only focused on dispelling Nurse Wang's suspicion, but she really didn't take a good look at the room.She only remembered that the room was not big, but the light was very good. The walls were soft light green. It was quiet and comfortable. It must have been carefully designed. When they left, the sunlight shone through the window on the floor of the room, making it warm and bright. The peaceful appearance of the years.

No one can see the bloody storm behind the peaceful years from this room, including Lao Chaofeng.

"Something doesn't feel right," Lao Chaofeng whispered, "He has lived here for a long time, and this room condenses a large part of his life. If he did it, there would always be some traces, but I don't I don’t feel it at all, and neither do you.”

He Si nodded: "And Nurse Wang said that he hasn't left recently, unless everything he does is a performance..."

Fan Yu followed closely, and the two of them were not in a hurry when they saw this. They were already far behind in the conversation. They only heard Li Qingli shouting someone's name twice from a distance, but no one around him responded. I don't know if he was admitting his mistake. Yes, the other party is still deaf.

He Si was still talking: "Could it be because of his illness? Those crimes were committed when he occasionally regained his memory, and now he has forgotten them?"

"But how do you explain the appearance?"

He Si didn't know how to answer. When she was full of sorrow, she suddenly felt a turtle crawling under her feet, but the figure was not as clear as in the morning. It was fleeting and could never be found again.

"Follow up first and then talk."

Lao Chaofeng's words interrupted He Si's thoughts. When the two of them caught up, the old man was still muttering to Fan Yu impatiently: "You also said that I have Alzheimer's disease. I have a good memory. You are the ones with Alzheimer's disease. I The house has been sold for several years, what does it have to do with your community!”

"How can you say that? You always have to be concerned."

"That old Li just now is the same. He is getting more and more deaf and is no longer useful."

"Aren't you Lao Li?"

"Am I the only one with the surname Li in the whole world?" Li Qingli stared when he heard this. It seemed that Nurse Wang was right. He had a bad temper recently.

Fan Yu accompanied him carefully: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's you, old Li Jianlang."

"Humph!"

The old man expressed his dissatisfaction through his nose and opened the door.

Entering this one-bedroom apartment again, perhaps because of the return of the owner, the three of them were much more reserved than before. The chat was not as smooth as before. After going around and around for several rounds, the topic finally came to Li Jiahui.

As soon as these words were mentioned, the old man fell silent.

An unbearable silence spread in the small room. After a long time, the old man suffering from Alzheimer's said: "I don't remember."

His expression and tone were full of pain, but he clearly remembered every minute of it.

"If necessary, we can also accompany you to the old house for a walk." Fan Yu said bravely.

"No," perhaps feeling the toughness of his own resistance, the old man lowered his head and continued, "Why do you mention her again? You know my disease, so what if I remember it now? I will always forget it. By then it was all gone.”

It was so cruel that even Fan Yu couldn't answer the question for a while.

"Aren't you here to offer condolences? Have you finished asking? I'm going to have lunch." After the old man said that, he turned away as if he were taking a meal card from the drawer, but He Si saw that he was wiping away his tears.

"Do you still have a photo of your daughter here?" Her voice broke out from the silence.

"Why are you still pestering me?"

"Can you give me one? I saw that the photos in your file have not been updated before I came here. Maybe I can update the photos in the community file. Each of us will eventually disappear in the memory of others, but now that technology has developed, at least The information system will always remember you father and daughter.”

Although he didn't know what He Si meant, she would never act recklessly. Fan Yu immediately added: "Yes, keeping it in the file means keeping it."

The old man hesitated and was silent for a long time. Then he turned back to open the drawer and handed a photo album to He Si's hand: "Take it and don't come back again."

"Wait a minute." He Si said, directly opening the photo album, staring at one of the close-ups of a little girl in the park, and holding the old man's hand.

"Xiao He, what are you..."

Half of what Fan Yu said was interrupted by Lao Chaofeng's eyes. Although he was confused, he immediately kept silent. He saw Li Qingli's frowning brows unfurling, his eyes becoming gentle, staring at an unknown distance, losing focus. .

Xiao Jiu was resting on He Si's shoulder, tilting his head to look at Fan Yu. Lao Chaofeng put one hand on Fan Yu's shoulder and held He Si's hand with the other.

Fan Yu saw light like broken gold blooming from Xiao Jiu's body, entwining Li Qingli and He Si like silk thread.As the hand on his shoulder gradually tightened, the entangled light also flowed to him. After a while, he and Lao Chaofeng were both surrounded by this thread.

The world in front of him changed, with green grass and flowers blooming. Fan Yu could even hear the chirping of birds and smell the fragrance of flowers. He looked up and saw a little girl wearing a pink dress standing in front of an angel sculpture in the park. Smile brightly.Not far away, her father was squatting half-crouched, holding a camera in his hand and still giving instructions, capturing every beautiful moment of his daughter with his heart, looking focused and happy.

Could this be Li Qingli and Li Jiahui?
Fan Yu didn't dare to look into it carefully. He only saw that He Si and Lao Chaofeng were also in this scene, but the father and daughter seemed unable to see them.

After a while, the photo was taken, and young Li Qingli waved, and the little girl ran over and jumped into her father's arms without looking at the photo.Li Qingli almost fell down due to the impact and barely maintained his crouching position, but there was only a smile on his face.He hung the camera around his neck again, picked up his daughter, raised it high above his head, and spun her around twice.

The girl's little body took off, and her silver bell-like laughter was carried in the wind.

Fan Yu's eyes opened wider and wider, and the figure leaving holding hands and the burst of laughter became farther and farther away, and he returned to the sunshine of reality.

Looking at the old man in front of him, he stood there blankly. There was no surprise or doubt in his eyes, only longing and tenderness. Two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down his cheeks.

"If there was a chance to avenge your daughter, would you do it?" Lao Chaofeng's voice was like a ghost, attacking the old man who had not yet recovered his mind.

The old man shook his head and his voice returned from trembling to calm: "What's the use of revenge? Jiahui was killed by hatred. Her mother and I don't want to live in hatred anymore."

This was not a lie. He Si and the three of them were stunned - it was not him!

And at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
