Chapter 385 The Secret of the Iron Box

This is?

At first glance, the notepad taken out of the iron box is quite old.

Its outer skin style looks like in the 90s and [-]s, and the paper has turned yellow. It is only because it is packed in an airtight moisture-proof iron box that it can be preserved intact.

This book should not be something like study notes, because there is usually not only one copy of that thing, and there is not much need to hide it so deep.

Of course, this thought just passed by in a flash. You just need to open it and look at what is recorded in the notepad.

Putting the notepad on the table, Min Xue turned on the flashlight with one hand and looked through it with the other.

Although the notepad was well preserved, the handwriting on it was blurred with the passage of time after all, and it was barely legible.

Maybe the owner of the book is a primary school student who is just learning to write?
The font was very naive at first, there were many typos, and even many words that could not be written were replaced with circle symbols, so many sentences seemed incomprehensible.

Fortunately, the owner of the notebook didn't intend to express any profound literary thoughts, but just recorded some daily trivial matters, so Min Xue didn't have to struggle so much to read.

After reading a few pages, Min Xue knew that this was not the diary of a primary school student, but Li Ma's, because the perspective of the notes in the diary was completely based on the daily life of taking care of the Lei family.

Thinking of what Lei Jinghui once said, Li Ma was originally illiterate, but was taught by the old man later, Min Xue also came to a sudden.

Ten lines at a glance, Min Xue turns pages very quickly, not because he is not careful, but because Mama Li's vocabulary is limited, and the content she can express is very limited. Often a few words are enough for a day, such as the following.

"The weather is fine, sir, I wrote a few words again, I am so happy."

"Sir, you are really kind. You still listen to me today."

"Today I gave Master Jing ○ his favorite osmanthus ○."

"Master Jing got angry again today, Mr. ○, and is very worried."

"."

From these short and incompletely expressed words and sentences, it is not difficult to see Li Ma's feelings for the Lei family and father.

At the end, Min Xue's page-turning speed involuntarily slowed down, because as time passed, Mama Li knew more and more characters, and the content of the records became more and more abundant.

Of course, Mama Li spent most of her time writing about what happened to her husband today and what happened to Master Jing tomorrow, but she seldom recorded her own situation.

When turning to a certain page, Min Xue suddenly paused.

"My heart is very confused. Today, Young Master Jing actually called me Mom. Are you kidding me?"

The content of this sentence is a bit large, it seems that Mama Li has the idea of ​​becoming a real family with Lei's family, otherwise she would not be upset by Lei Jinghui's words, whether it is a joke or not.

Thinking about Mr. Lei's reaction when he learned of Mama Li's death, he knew that Mama Li was not unilaterally self-indulgent.

Since Lang has a concubine who is interested, why have the two of them not pierced the window paper for so many years?

Min Xue continued to turn backwards. Among the many daily records, a record finally appeared one day and gave the answer.

"I know that I shouldn't think otherwise. I'm a married woman with no education. I'm not good enough for my husband. What's more, my wife helped me in the most difficult time. How can I do it now?" I'm sorry for her, but you took her place?"

The answer is here.
After that, Mama Li's records gradually became less and less, from daily to weekly to monthly, and she may not write once in the last year or two.

But every time the record shows her growing concern for her husband and her forbearance and suppression of her own feelings.

Feelings have always been more repressed and stronger. Mama Li has grown older, but her heart has not faded with time at all.

In order to make herself give up, Li Ma decided not to record anymore, and sealed the notepad in an iron box and put it in the cellar, as if she had also put a layer of shackles on her heart.

It's not hard to imagine the situation between the two. They both have intentions for each other, but they dare not show it. After decades like this, it's quite embarrassing.

Thinking about the large number of mistresses now, compared with Mama Li's restraint decades after the death of her original partner, one is radical and the other is conservative, and only I can understand the taste of it.

The time span of the notepad is very large, but the time it takes Min Xue to browse through it is not too long. Apart from knowing about a "sadomasochism", it seems that there are no clues to the case that he expected before?
What a waste of a hidden plot item!

Min Xue put the notepad back into the tin box and put it on the table, and did not dispose of it lightly. The value of this thing is divided into different people, and it is worthless to most people, but to Li Ma and even Lei Lao, it must be worth a lot. More than a thousand gold.

and many more!

The price is more than a thousand gold?
Min Xue suddenly thought of something, he recalled the direction in which Li Ma fell and crawled, it seemed that she was indeed facing the direction of the hidden iron box!
So maybe the motivation to make Mama Li crawl for more than two meters enduring the severe pain when she was seriously injured and dying was not because of the murderer's coercion, but because of her obsession in her heart?

Mama Li came to the cellar again, maybe just to take another look at this notepad?

"Ding".

At this moment, Min Xue's mobile phone text message sounded, and it was the results of the drug photo consultation just now.

Fast enough!

Min Xue secretly praised his counselor, Lu Mantong, the new forensic doctor who arrived at Mr. Xing, is professional enough!

Forensic Lu analyzed a lot of professional terminology in WeChat, and Min Xue glanced at it without changing his face.

In the end, he only came to one conclusion, that is, some of these mixed drugs are mainly anti-tumor, and the serious ones act on the brain.

But from Lei Jinghui's "Memoirs", there is no mention of this at all, which is not normal.

The only possibility is that Mama Li concealed her illness, and put it in the middle of a large batch of medicine for fear of being found out.

This shows that she knew that she was dying, so in order not to worry the Lei family and his father, she chose to bear it alone.

So what is it that makes an old man with such a serious illness have the idea of ​​going down to the cellar alone?
Under the confirmation of this feedback information, things must have been very clear.

At the end of her life, Mama Li either wanted to relive the past by herself through the notepad, or she wanted to get rid of the notepad so that the secrets of her life would be dusted.

Moreover, Lu Mantong's feedback also provided a possibility, that is, Sun Yong might not have lied, and Li Ma really fell down because she couldn't stand herself.

According to Lu Mantong's popular science, the visible symptoms of brain tumors are obvious loss of vision, dizziness, headache, nausea, body weight loss, and some may even be bedridden for a long time.

Presumably Li's mother knew that she had this disease, and she didn't want to go to the hospital to suffer from radiation and chemotherapy when she was too old. While hiding her illness and giving up treatment, she was worried that Mr. Lei would not be taken care of, so she took Xiaomei over to pick her up. class.

It shouldn't be difficult to prove whether Mama Li fell into the cellar because of a sudden onset of illness, as long as a special autopsy is done.
