Out of the lion

Li Mo arranges manpower to search for Lin Xiaoxi and fake Hua Qiang.

He issued a death order, no matter what the situation, the fake Hua Qiang must be found.

Ten minutes later, Jiang Chu reported to Li Mo that Jiang Feifei had found the fake Hua Qiang.

Li Mo hurried over, stepping on a few dead leaves that had fallen from the banyan tree, and walked into the depths of the courtyard.

The green shade of the Li family mansion is always there, and it is always cool, but when entering this courtyard, the warm wind turns cold, making people feel chilly all over.

As soon as Li Mo arrived, everyone consciously took half a step to the side, leaving a passage.

The fake flower Qiang is under the banyan tree, with its back facing the courtyard gate, and looking up at the banyan tree.Jiang Feifei was standing right behind him, and would subdue him if he made any abnormal movements.

Fake Hua Qiang heard footsteps behind him, the steps were not heavy, but steady, and knew that Li Mo was coming.

When he came, it was like a cold wind, you could feel it clearly without seeing or hearing it.

"You let this courtyard be abandoned because it is very similar to the small courtyard of Shu's family in Huaxi Town, right? The same towering trees, shaded by green trees. It's just that there are many red colored heads hanging on the banyan tree of Shu's family." Fake Huaqiang sighed, as if he had witnessed everything about the Shu family.

Of course Li Mo knew about the red colored head in the courtyard of Shu's house, it was Lin Xiaoxi who secretly brought it home when he went to play in the temple.She heard the old man who made a wish outside the temple say that writing the wish on the red silk and hanging it on a tall tree can make the wish come true, so she made up her mind.

Lin Xiaoxi didn't know, she took a large handful of red silk with her front feet, and the monks in the monastery behind found her parents.

Lin Xiaoxi originally wanted to write a lot of wishes, but because she was not very good at writing, it took her a long time to write one.It is both Chinese characters and pinyin. It is estimated that the Bodhisattva would not understand what she wanted to make after reading it.Later, Lin Xiaoxi went to call Li Mo and asked Li Mo to write for him.However, just as she opened the door of the small room, she saw her parents walking in with dark faces holding bamboo strips.

That beating was really harsh, Lin Xiaoxi was so out of breath from crying.After crying, I had to wash my face, and ran to the temple to sweep the floor to make amends.

But Lin Xiaoxi soon had a happy smile on her face again, because the big handful of red silk belonged to her.

She asked Li Mo to help her write down her wishes, from "hope to get a pencil that can never be finished" to "hope to grow a pair of wings and become an angel".And because "angel" is the content of Western mythology, and Bodhisattva is from the East, it was changed to "I hope there will be a Hot Wheels as powerful as Nezha".

Li Mo's handwriting was sore and soft, he had no energy to write his homework, and it was the first time he was criticized by the teacher and called his parents...

These memories, like soft sunlight, cover every banyan leaf.

Li Mo looked at the fake Hua Qiang's back and asked him: "You are not Hua Qiang, so who are you?"

Seeing that the fake Hua Qiang didn't answer, Li Mo said again: "We haven't been idle during this time. After checking Hua Qiang's information, we found that he is an orphan who was abandoned on the street and picked up by the Shu family."

There was a bitter smile on Fake Hua Qiang's face, "It happened many years ago, and it has long been buried in thick soil and dust."

"No." Li Mo said, "We also found out that Hua Qiang was not abandoned, but sold by his biological father. There was also a boy who looked exactly the same as him."

Fake Hua Qiang turned his head and looked at Li Mo, his pupils shrank slightly.

Li Mo said: "Even if you don't tell me your identity, I can guess that you should be the boy who was sold together back then."

The fake Hua Qiang's mouth twitched slightly, a smile that was not a smile.

"So what if it's me? So what if it's not? The times are better now, and there is no such thing as vicious prostitution. It's good."

"The past is in the past, what matters is the present and the future."

"For me, I have no regrets. The Huajin Lion Dance Team disbanded, and the little lions have their own love and dreams. My body is getting worse day by day. I may leave in these two days, or I may be able to survive again. several months."

Li Mo's eyes are serious, "The perpetrator will always easily forgive his mistakes, but don't forget that once the power of hatred gathers in your heart, it will not dissipate for a long time. What do you want me and Xiaoxi to do to forgive you for committing crimes back then? crime?"

Fake Hua Qiang's face turned pale, "You..."

Li Mo said: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I can't figure out what the relationship between you and Hua Qiang is. It was Xiaoxi who reminded me. She guessed that you are twin brothers, so I followed this clue to investigate. Sure enough, I found out that the two of you were twin brothers. You and the two brothers Hua Qiang were taken to the pier by your biological father and sold."

"After your mother learned about this, she sent your father to prison. But since then, your mother has been ill, occasionally sober, and occasionally insane. She passed away in January last year."

Fake Hua Qiang's heart froze, as if a sharp dagger cut open his chest and shredded his heart.However, there was no emotional fluctuation on his face, just a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, "You are so powerful, did you even guess what happened back then?"

Li Mo said: "You are not Hua Qiang, so the story you told me was fabricated by you. The real situation is that you are one of the murderers."

"Back then, you entered Shu's house to snatch the keys and caused a tragedy. You bumped into Hua Qiang by mistake and recognized him as your brother. Your brother died tragically, but you used his identity to escape from Huaxi Town and lived under the sun."

In that era when there was no smartphone shooting scene, no surveillance, and a lack of technology, fugitives committed crimes and escaped into the sea of ​​people, making it difficult to find.

It's been a long time, and the clues have been broken long ago. It's hard for Li Mo to search from the beginning.The appearance of the Huajin lion dance team broke a hole.

Li Mo said: "I will never allow you to hurt Xiaoxi again, tell me where Xiaoxi is!"

Fake Hua Qiang sighed, "Actually, I was already prepared to surrender. Back then...although I didn't kill a single person, I was also one of the gang."

"I'm asking you, where is Xiaoxi!" Li Mo squeezed water out of his fist.

Fake Hua Qiang smiled lightly, "She is so weird, do you think I can control her?"

"What do you mean?" Li Mo asked.

Fake Hua Qiang said: "She is like you, she guessed that I was one of the murderers of the tragedy that year, so she came to me."

"I have always wanted to forget the past, live a good life, and let the little lion have a decent father. But Xiaoxi recognized the moves I taught to the Huajin lion dance team, which involved things ten years ago and disrupted my plan .”

"Once upon a time, I had a thought that I wanted her to die and disappear forever with her secrets."

"However, seeing how happy she was with the little lion, I changed my mind."

Fake Hua Qiang sighed a long time, "Okay, I should do what I should do."
