I deduce that the heroine likes me [Transmigration Book]

According to the information provided by Wu Wenyu, Song Muxue sent a lawyer's letter to the defendant.He also stated that if there is any objection, please communicate with the plaintiff in the presence of our lawyers.

To Song Muxue's surprise, the defendant came to the firm the afternoon after the lawyer's letter was delivered, saying that he wanted to talk to lawyer Song about something, but hoped to avoid the plaintiff, Ms. Wu Wenyu.

This request made Song Muxue feel very surprised, but the person had already come to the door, and it was impossible to call Wu Wenyu urgently, so I had to listen to what she wanted to say first.

In the end, the defendant's request was very strange, saying: "I know what Ms. Wu is suspicious of, but I really didn't abduct her daughter, and I hope she can withdraw the lawsuit. In addition, if she needs a girl-hunting fund, I can contribute 10 yuan ——Anonymous. I wonder if Lawyer Song can convey these thoughts to Ms. Wu on my behalf?"

Before the defendant appeared, Song Muxue had doubts about Wu Wenyu's source.It is obviously imprecise to convict based on just a blurry photo. She felt that she might have sued the wrong person, so she sent a lawyer's letter, hoping that the two parties could sit down and talk, resolve the misunderstanding and reconcile.But now that the defendant showed up so impatiently, and still had such a position when he opened his mouth, Song Muxue became suspicious instantly.

"I'm not a lawyer yet, just an assistant." Song Muxue asked after explaining, "Why don't you talk to Ms. Wu in person? If there is a misunderstanding, wouldn't it be better to solve it in person?"

The defendant showed embarrassment and said, "I'm not good at dealing with people. If I can't convey it on my behalf, forget it. Let her sue, anyway, I didn't do it."

The defendant's attitude can be summed up like this: he sought reconciliation on the basis of not meeting Wu Wenyu, but Wu Wenyu had no objection if he really wanted to sue her, and he seemed to have a clear conscience.

Song Muxue chatted with the defendant for an hour or two, and after confirming the defendant's feedback, she took the defendant off the elevator and sent her to the lobby.

Once in the lobby, the lady at the front desk whispered to Song Muxue: "Your friend is here, sitting here waiting for you to get off work. You have a really good relationship."

Song Muxue just remembered that she didn't have any work today, so she made an appointment to go shopping together.She turned her head and saw Kou Shuang trotting over with a cheerful smile on her face.

Song Muxue said to the defendant: "Then, Ms. Zhang, I'm here today. If there is anything else, I will contact you later."

"Thank you, it's a pleasure communicating with you." The defendant nodded, then looked in the direction of the hall, and said, "Your friend is here. Ms. Song, get off work quickly. You've worked hard today."

Song Muxue said goodbye to the defendant with a smile, and then saw that the defendant was still smiling for a second, but became a little panicked and dodged for a second, and hurriedly said: "I have to leave beforehand, lawyer Song!"

It was as if there was no breath at all.

Song Muxue glanced at Kou Shuang suspiciously. Did Kou Shuang scare the defendant so much?But why?

In the next second, Kou Shuang's surprised voice was heard: "Liu...Auntie?!"

The defendant continued to turn and leave in a panic. Song Muxue knew something was wrong, so she quickly opened her mouth and said, "You guys know each other? This is my friend Kou Shuang, and this is my, um, client, Ms. Zhang Zhiruo."

Kou Shuang grabbed the defendant's wrist and said, "Zhang Zhiruo?! Are you Xiaodie's aunt?!"

-

Kou Shuang never dreamed of such a thing.

"Tell me what's going on."

Song Muxue, Kou Shuang, and Zhang Zhiruo were sitting in the coffee shop downstairs of the company. It was already time to get off work, so there were few people and it was very quiet, which was very suitable for serious conversations or questioning.

Zhang Zhiruo leaned on the sofa, took off her coat, and only wore a woolen sweater.The figure is no different from what Kou Shuang saw on the beach.

Zhang Zhiruo took a sip of coffee, paused for a while, and said, "Where do we start?"

Where to start?The person in front of him had two identities, and he might have recognized him, but he didn't take the initiative to confess.What confuses me even more is the identity of the other party as a homeless woman.Why don't you just wander the streets and alleys with your children all day instead of going to work?

What is the purpose?

"Let's start with Ms. Wu Wenyu's daughter, Wu Hongye." Song Muxue said flatly.

Kou Shuang was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that the other party was the prisoner Wu Wenyu, a sanitation worker, was going to sue, who was said to have "abducted her daughter".Thinking of the many children around her, could it be that Wu Wenyu's daughter Wu Hongye is among them?

Zhang Zhiruo glanced at Song Muxue, then looked at Kou Shuang, and said, "I once told you a story about a stray cat, I wonder if you still remember it."

Kou Shuang nodded, of course she remembered.This story was deeply engraved in her mind at that time, and after retelling it from Xiaodie's perspective, she was almost sure that the cat referred to a girl named "Xiao Hong".

It is absolutely impossible for Wu Hongye to be Xiaodie, because Song Muxue has seen her before, if it is Xiaodie, then Song Muxue will definitely recognize her.

Judging from the pronunciation of the name, the possibility that Xiaohong is Wu Hongye is quite high.

The news of Kou Shuang and Song Muxue is not completely exchanged.Song Muxue knew the names of "Wu Hongye" and "Zhang Zhiruo", but she had never seen the appearance of a homeless woman up close.Kou Shuang knew what the homeless girl looked like, and had seen "Zhang Zhiruo" wearing a mask, but she couldn't connect the two together.

Xiaohong, Wu Hongye, this should be a person.So Wu Wenyu's daughter has actually...disappeared now?

"The little cat is Wu Wenyu's daughter." Zhang Zhiruo said, "I only confirmed it after seeing the lawyer's letter and the photo on it."

"Before I worked in Janna Advertising, I had another job in a foreign company. There was a lot of gossip in the company, as you should already know. At that time, my home was very far from the workplace, and it took two hours to commute. Every time on the subway, I can always see a little girl begging for money. She looks cute, but she is poorly dressed. Her eyes are like a kitten, and she is wary of every stranger, but she is soft."

"She was always followed by a middle-aged man not far away. After a long time, I was sure that this is the kind of criminal gang that sends children to beg. The kitten must be a child who was trafficked somewhere."

"I felt compassion and began to give her money and food every day. I knew that the money would be confiscated, but I also heard that this kind of gang would assign tasks to children, and they would beat and scold them if they couldn't complete them. I hope she To be able to complete tasks, not to be beaten and scolded, and to have a bite to eat."

Kou Shuang couldn't help asking: "Why are you so nice to her? Since you like her so much, why didn't you call the police?"

Zhang Zhiruo gave Kou Shuang a meaningful look, and said, "Not everyone believes in the police like you do. Who knows if the criminals are with the police, and will they bite me back? Pity me, but I can't." messed up my life for her."

Zhang Zhiruo's words are also reasonable, one of the group characteristics of contemporary urbanites is indifference and selfishness.Even if you like it, your sincerity and actions are limited.It's really not cost-effective to disturb one's life for a little girl whom you don't know. Life can't be quantified, but that's how many people calculate it.

But Kou Shuang felt weird because Zhang Zhiruo was sitting in front of her.She changed jobs, started wandering, and became the king of children... No matter how you look at it, the sacrifice was much greater than the police at the time.

"Then one day, I fell asleep and sat up and down, just in time to watch the man lead the kitten away. The kitten followed him dejectedly, and I followed them to their lair. I saw a lot of children, it should be They’re all begging.” Zhang Zhiruo looked at Kou Shuang, her eyes were blurred and fragile: “Some things can be treated as if they don’t exist if you don’t see them. But once you see them with your own eyes, you can’t pretend anymore. They treat kittens very badly. Well, I beat and scolded, gave some leftovers, and couldn’t get enough to eat at all. From this, I knew their base camp, I also knew the situation of the kitten, I knew how hard she was, and I felt sorry for her even more, and wanted to rescue her .”

"Later, I often went to their lair to see how they treated the children. I quietly chatted with the kitten. I often put the food in an almost abandoned trash can, and she would go there regularly to get it. When I met her on the road, I would also give her some change so that she could complete the tasks assigned to her by the criminal gang. I told her that I would rescue her, she was very happy, and brought me to know Xiaodie. I gave her a Whistle, let her blow the whistle when she is in danger, and I said I would save her. At that time, she was very happy and looked at me like a hero."

"—but I'm not a hero, I'm not even human."

"The more I observe, the more I find them bad. They are very cruel to children, as if they have no children and have no humanity... Can you imagine? I started to get scared... Every time the kitten asked me when I would save her out , I became more and more afraid... The timing of action is always delayed... But the kitten didn't doubt me at all, she was too young, she didn't know that adults would backfire, and she didn't know that adults were cowardly How shameful it is!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhiruo's expression became painful, guilt and heartache intertwined, both remorse and shame. "I'm cowardly, and I don't keep my promises. I can't do what I promised Kitty... I'm ashamed of her mother, and I dare not see Wu's mother. Tell me, how can I be such an annoying woman?"

That's why he rushed to the office in a hurry to express his attitude in the morning?Song Muxue narrowed her eyes, judging the truth of these words in her heart.

At this point in the narration, Zhang Zhiruo stopped.Drenched in her incompetence and weakness, she grows increasingly angry—at the gang, but more importantly, at herself.

Kou Shuang looked at Zhang Zhiruo, and suddenly understood why the other party's life had undergone such earth-shaking changes.

Wang Xiaobo said that all human suffering is essentially anger at one's own incompetence.Zhang Zhiruo did a lot of things wrong. After Wu Hongye disappeared, her inferiority and mistakes tortured her, making her miserable.

She will always think of the promise she made to the "kitten" Wu Hongye, she will remember her inconsistency and incompetence, she will regret, suffer, and transform.

So, has it become what it is now?

Kou Shuang looked at Zhang Zhiruo, waited for the other party to calm down a little, and asked, "Why did Xiaohong disappear, do you know?"

That is the key to all turning points, and it may be the only possibility to find Wu Hongye.

Zhang Zhiruo took a big sip of coffee, and the bitter taste spread on the tip of her tongue. She bit the tip of her tongue, and then continued with difficulty: "After I gave the whistle to the kitten, she only tried it once on the first day. Because she was afraid of being discovered by those people. I never knew what the sound was, and when it rang harshly in my ears, I couldn't recognize it. The sound was so chaotic, I couldn't tell which direction it came from Yes...by the time I finally found the place, the whistle had already stopped."

"I saw the whistle fell into the dirty black muddy water, but I didn't see the kitten. There was a homeless man near the whistle, and he was incoherent with fright. I asked him what he saw. He said the car, and said that someone had taken the adults away. And the child, and said that he ran away by himself... If I ask again, he has already run away."

"I went to the old lair of the begging group to find Xiaodie again. Xiaodie told me that the three men went out with the kitten and never came back after the whistle. I wanted to find out what happened, so I changed a copy Idle work, pretending to be a vagabond, shuttling in the city. If they took the kitten and the three men, they would definitely take me and the other children. I taught them to gather information, and I taught them to meet If you are in danger, run away. I have always wanted to find that homeless man and ask carefully. I almost caught him last time, but someone else was chasing him, so I had to run away with the children. Yes, I met you that day , I don’t know if you still remember.”

Zhang Zhiruo's eyes were a little red, and now she was very negative and tired, and said, "That's the way it is, is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Wait," Kou Shuang said, "The homeless man you're talking about, isn't he a man with a beard and a bad smell? His eyes are a bit cock-fighting, and his reaction is slow?"

"You know him?" Zhang Zhiruo's eyes widened, and her spirit returned.

Kou Shuang suddenly felt a little tired.
