Fengjing Notes

Qin Feng

I stood outside the closet, exchanged glances with the people around me, and reached out to open the closet door.

As I expected, there was a little girl inside.Curled up in the innermost part of the wardrobe, as if knowing that the door was open.Her small shoulders began to tremble violently.

"Don't be afraid," I knelt down and said softly, "We are the police."

Hearing the sound, the small tear-stained face lifted up, glanced at me, and shrank back.

I felt uncomfortable for a while, looking at the girl's bitten lower lip and the slightly opened cabinet door.It is self-evident what she has experienced, how much courage it takes for such a young child to control herself.Witnessing the death of her parents but being unable to make a sound, how much perseverance she used to control herself at the beginning, how broken she is now.

I stretched out my hand and patted the girl's shoulder lightly, the suppressed sobs turned into howls.

I held the girl in my arms and the girl hugged my neck tightly.I patted her on the back and whispered in her ear "what's your name".A loud howl was my answer.

With my eyes, I signaled Xiao Zhao to go back with me first, avoiding the bloodstains and sending the girl to the car.Feeling the trembling on my shoulders gradually getting smaller, I turned my head and saw that I fell asleep.

I frowned, the child refused to approach anyone after waking up, except me.

She is now shrinking behind me.

I looked at the captain and deputy director in front of me, and shook my head slightly.

It was hard to lull her to sleep.Maybe mental exhaustion is more drowsy, so I drove to find that person.

It's almost 6 pm, I don't know if she is still there.I drove downstairs to her clinic and asked the front desk of the clinic.

She hasn't left yet, and I'm relieved.

"Talk to her, please, just say it's a policeman she saw."I thought for a while and continued, "It's Cheng Yumo's friend."

The front desk made a call and got a response and gave me a nod. "Go up the stairs, the innermost room".

"Well, I know."I thanked me and turned and walked up the stairs.

I knocked lightly on the door, and when I got a response, I pushed it open.Seeing the man sitting on the chair, frowning, there was an unconcealable sadness between the brows.My heart suddenly hurts a little.

After thinking about it again and again, I still explained my intention. To my surprise, she immediately agreed to my request.I looked at that person's cold and ascetic face, and felt that she was much more enthusiastic than I imagined.Her favorability increased by another three points.

There was a knock on the door, and I said softly, "Please come in".She is dressed in a straight police uniform, which looks much better than the last time I saw her at the wedding, still with a high ponytail, I watched her come in and looked at me hesitant to speak, I don’t know if she sells it in a gourd what medicine.

I didn't urge her either. Seeing her fidgeting, I somehow felt a lot better.

"What's the matter?" The curiosity in my heart was too strong, and I couldn't help but speak first.

"Well... yes".She looked at me and nodded as if she had made up her mind. "Today, there was a murder case. The deceased was a couple about 35 years old. There was one survivor, a little girl about 7 years old."She looked straight at me.

I seem to have a premonition of something.I frowned.Sure enough, I heard what I expected.

"She probably witnessed the whole thing."

At that moment, I thought of Tao Ran.If she only found witnesses, she couldn't come to me, after all, I'm just a counselor.Now that she's here, it means something happened to the girl.It is self-evident what kind of psychological problems are most likely to occur to a girl who survived after witnessing her parents being killed.Same as Tao Ran back then.

Tao Ran's beautiful face appeared again in my mind, and the tear mole at the corner of his eye was dazzling.

"The point now is not how she saw the murderer, and she is now refusing to be approached by others, and she is particularly afraid of people."She continued, "Except for me, I am now worried that this will affect her future life, this child is still so young..."

"Where is she now?" I interrupted her.

"In the Bureau, I just coaxed her to sleep."

"Can I go in?"I frowned, "It's better to bring her out, it's not convenient for me to come and go."

"I'll take you to see it first, and then we'll decide what she should do next."
