I'm waiting for you in the wind and snow

Chapter 396 Erase the hope of being alive

I held the postcard tightly, and the moment I thought of a certain possibility, my body stiffened suddenly, but the speed of blood flow and heartbeat continued to accelerate.Chen Jin noticed my abnormality, he looked at the postcard in my hand, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"When did you get this thing?"

"I can't remember the exact time, it was probably in the evening, I just returned to the office after talking about things outside."

"Has the surveillance system in the commercial street been installed? I want to check the surveillance."

"No, the equipment is still on the way, and it won't be installed until the day after tomorrow... What's wrong?"

I put the postcard on the coffee table, and after he took a closer look, he said, "Isn't it just a postcard? Was it given to you by a guest who had a good relationship with you when you opened an inn in Jiulongju?" came."

"Impossible... Absolutely impossible... The town on this postcard is called Rickville... It is a place Ye Zhi has been to, and it is also a place she likes very much. She said that when I have enough time , take me there too... Do you believe in such a coincidence in this world?"

Chen Jin looked around subconsciously, and then said with emotion: "We are ordinary people living in an ordinary world, can we not be so mysterious?"

"It's not mysterious... She often travels around the world, and brought me many commemorative gadgets from abroad... The thing in that bottle may be the river water brought back from Rickville, or something else thing."

As I spoke, I went back to my room, took out all the things that Ye Zhi had brought to me, and showed them in front of Chen Jin.

Chen Jin picked them up and looked at them one by one. He frowned, and then said to me: "You mean... Ye Zhi survived that shipwreck... She's back now?"

"I don't know... But looking at these things, I feel that I am very close to her... Even if it is not her, at least these things are related to her... It seems to be a hint... I can not say it clearly!"

Chen Jin was silent for a while, and then said to me: "I don't think so... As a normal person, I still can't understand why she didn't come to see your motive since she was still alive... There is more in your life than now. Was it more difficult?... During the time when she had an accident in Thailand, you almost ruined yourself. If she was still there, would she be able to watch you like this?..."

Chen Jin's words hurt my heart... If she really loves me as a man, how can she bear me like this?
I lit a cigarette and sat in a daze...

Chen Jin was also silent, and only spoke to me after a long time: "Let's go, let's find out...Although our commercial street has not yet installed monitoring equipment, some shops have already installed it spontaneously..."

I looked up, stunned...

Chen Jin also said: "The image store invested by Lu Jia Company in our commercial street has done a good job in terms of security. Cameras are installed in all places facing the street. Possibly captured."

……

In the middle of the night, we found the person in charge of the store, and troubled him to let us watch the replay of the surveillance... During the whole process, Chen Jin and I watched intently... I don't know if it was fate, the originally deserted Jiulongju, After our operation, it has become quite popular, and the time when Chen Jin got the box happened to be the peak of the flow of people. In a blind spot, it is difficult to distinguish a person's appearance, and it is all in a flash.

When the playback started for the second time, Chen Jin asked me: "Do you think there is anyone in this large group of people that you are looking for?"

"No...maybe he (she) entered from another entrance; it's also possible that the person who was sent there was a passerby..."

Chen Jin sighed, and said: "I still can't figure it out, if this matter is really related to Ye Zhi, why would she use this method? ... Or is there someone who doesn't want you to get too close to Lu Jia, Then there was such an unbelievable behavior?...Think about it: Ye Zhi had such a big accident in Thailand, and she is considered a half-public figure. If she wants to return to China, doesn't she need to go through the formal procedures? If she goes Due to the formal procedures, the news should have been spread long ago... So, it doesn't make sense logically... She has no condition to return to China at all."

Chen Jin's words were well-founded, and my mood fell instantly... I lit a cigarette, thinking about whether there were other possibilities.

I thought of Jian Zihan, she knew too much about Ye Zhi and me, could it be that she sent these things over?In order to remind me, don't forget Ye Zhi too easily.

Combined with the previous conversations, the more I think about it, the more I feel that she has such a motive, and as of yesterday, she was all in Dali, and she had the time and conditions to do this.

……

After I figured it out, I immediately called Jian Zihan regardless of the late night, she connected after a while, and then she took the initiative to say to me: "It's so late, can you call me?"

"I'll tell you straight to the point...yesterday, my friend received a box at the door of our studio, and it said that I received it; this is not the point, the point is, what's inside the box..."

"Go on."

"There is a postcard inside the box...the town on the postcard is called Rickwell...I don't know if Ye Zhi mentioned this place to you, but she told me...do you think this will be a kind of Coincidence? Suddenly someone sent me such a postcard."

After a while of silence, Jian Zihan replied: "Do you suspect that I sent it there?...OK, in your opinion, I do have such a motive, because I am Ye Zhi's closest friend and know a lot about her and you. ... But if I really did it, why didn't I give it to you in person? ... The effect is the same, and you will suspect me anyway... Besides, I can swear that I have never heard of Rikway This small town in Er... But after hanging up the phone, I will definitely go online to see what kind of place it is... because you have aroused my curiosity."

"Isn't it really you?"

"When did your friend receive this box?"

"It should have been yesterday evening."

"I was on the plane at 01:30 yesterday afternoon... I can send you the booking information. There is no way to fake this..."

"You don't have to do it yourself, you can ask others to do it for you...Any passer-by can do such a thing."

This time, Jian Zihan's tone was particularly low, and she said to me: "Mi Gao...why did you say these words to kill Ye Zhi's hope of being alive?"

My heart aches... I seem to be doing this, but is there really such a miracle?

Why is Jian Zihan unwilling to admit it? ... Besides her, who else can send these things with Ye Zhi's aura to me?
Jian Zihan said to me again: "I don't think the same way as you... Even if there is a glimmer of hope, I want to hold on to it... Also, let me say it again... I really didn't give you anything, but this thing The appearance of Ye is very in line with my wishes, because I have been worried that you will gradually become unwilling to wait for Ye Zi... But such a sudden incident will definitely make you make some changes... Even I am quite shocked, let alone you!"

I was silent... Jian Zihan hung up the phone in my silence.

……

Back at the residence, I stared at the postcard for a long time without saying a word... Finally, I put it and the bottle into my storage box.

At this juncture, I can no longer think too much... I should rest to ensure that I have enough energy to accompany Lao Mi through the most difficult hurdle in life.

But it doesn't mean I give up, I hope the same thing can happen again, so that I have a chance to peel back the cocoons, and then see the truth of everything.
