Half a catty

He Yue's mother has been watching He Yue's changes all the time, but as long as she shows a little worry, He Yue's disguise in front of her will become stronger and thicker, and he will be more nonchalant, covering up the turbulent undercurrent with calmness.

Over time, Mother He couldn't tell when He Yue was happy from the bottom of his heart and when he was pretending to be happy, because he always showed positive emotions in front of her.

But the turning point came after that folder appeared.

Mother He found that He Yue was no longer keen on going to sea, or in other words, He Yue rarely even set foot outside the house.He often sat in the living room for most of the day, looking at the coconut trees transplanted in the yard, watching the large green leaves being baked by the scorching sun, and watching them go through the devastation of the heavy rain.

The typhoon passed by, and the pouring rain washed everything as if it were endless. Looking out from the window, the sky and the earth were blurred.

Mother He was worried that those coconut trees that hadn't taken root would fall in the strong wind. She stood in front of the window, leaning against the glass and trying to observe the outside: "It will be bad if it hits the house... Yue, what the hell are you talking about typhoon?" Time will pass..."

Her answer was a moment of silence. Mother He turned her head and saw He Yue propped his head, staring intently outside, even though the glass window at this moment could only reflect his own reflection.

Only then did He's mother realize that He Yue was not looking at the coconut trees, nor the seagulls that landed in the yard from time to time, nor the squirrels that occasionally passed by the window.

He is not looking at anything.

Mother He approached slowly, sat down next to He Yue, and gently leaned on He Yue's shoulder. He Yue's eyes moved, he turned his head, and opened his arms to embrace Mother He into his arms.

Mother He secretly glanced at He Yue's face, and He Yue's expression made her uneasy, she couldn't tell what kind of expression it was, it seemed to be mixed up a lot, mixed into a dose of complicated sadness.

This is He Yue's frequent expression recently.

Mother He also tried to find out what was in the folder, which could have such a huge influence on He Yue.But as if it disappeared out of thin air, Mother He never saw the blue cover again, let alone what it contained.

The next day, the rain was over and the sky was sunny, but the yard was in a mess, leaving no small sequelae.

With a headache, He Yue picked up a bottle of red wine that fell into the bushes, grass clippings and branches in the pond at his feet, and even seaweed floating on the water.

When he was hesitant to do it himself and clean the swimming pool with a net, He's mother walked up to the balcony on the second floor, saw him in the yard, and raised her voice to ask him, "When shall we go home?"

He Yue raised his head and asked doubtfully, "Aren't you at home now?"

Mother He said, "I mean go back to City J."

"Is it uncomfortable to live here?" He Yue asked.

"It's not uncomfortable, I just feel that the weather has changed too much, like the typhoon yesterday, it was too scary." Mother He was still terrified: "Typhoons don't blow in J City."

He Yue pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.He's mother wanted to go back, so he naturally put He's mother's wishes first, but he himself was very resistant to going back, and the inner conflict made him stop.

Seeing He Yue's troubled look, He Mu smiled softly and said, "Don't you want to go back?"

"I..." He Yue was having a hard time opening his mouth. He's mother was still waiting patiently for his answer, when suddenly the cell phone rang.

He Yue subconsciously groped into his pocket and grabbed some air before realizing that the direction of the voice was from He Mu's side.

Mother He took out her mobile phone and was a little puzzled when she saw the caller's number. She answered the phone: "Hi, hello... yes, I'm in City Y now. There was a typhoon yesterday, and the mobile phone signal was blocked." Mother He simply explained After two sentences, he asked: "What's the matter?"

He Yue could probably hear what Mother He said clearly downstairs, he felt a little strange, it seemed that the caller was not someone who was familiar with Mother He, and Mother He looked serious and serious, as if something had happened.

The conversation was relatively brief, during which Mother He was mostly listening to the other side's speech, answering from time to time, but her voice gradually began to tremble and her face turned pale, but after a while, Mother He whispered: "I'm sorry...thank you. "Then she put down the phone abruptly, and she staggered a little as she couldn't stand still. Fortunately, she held on to the balcony railing with one hand so that she wouldn't fall down.

He Yue looked at He Mu's changes, and hurriedly asked: "Mom, who is calling? What happened?"

Mother He took a hard breath, and she turned to He Yue: "It's the Public Security Bureau." At this point, as if she couldn't bear it anymore, tears welled up in her eyes: "The police said, your dad's car accident was not an accident."

Suddenly, He Yue felt dizzy.

The wine bottle slipped from his hand and hit the slate floor, splitting into pieces in an instant, the mellow and rich red wine mixed with the glass stubble spread under He Yue's feet, turning into a pool of blood-like shadows.

It just snowed not long ago, and the road in front of the J City Detention Center has been cleared fairly cleanly. The snow has piled up on the side of the road, but the wheels still make some "creaking" noises when they are pressed against the road, just like being pressed on snow.

He Yue braved the cold wind and walked towards the guard box at the gate of the detention center. After repeated confirmation from the other party, he was allowed to enter.

Unsolved criminal suspects are not allowed to visit, especially He Yue, who is a family member of the victim, does not have the right to visit.But it was also because he was He Yue that he had access to meet the person who planned the whole car accident.

There are two large windows hanging in the meeting room, which is not as depressing as imagined. For example, the incandescent lamps are matched with cool colors, which makes it look miserable and exiled.Instead, sunlight passed through the iron bars, illuminating the room brightly and warmly. At the same time, it also shone on Men Changnan's head, casting a layer of soft light on his hair.

"I can see you again." Men Changnan was very pleasantly surprised, he grinned, and he was as docile in He Yue's impression, no different.

But He Yue did not have the gentleness of the past, he said coldly: "I will see you in court sooner or later."

Men Changnan approached the glass between them, carefully studied He Yue's calm face, and said in disbelief, "I thought you would want to kill me."

"I don't have time to vent my emotions to you, I just want to chat with you." He Yue said.

"What's there to talk about? Sooner or later you will know the whole story from the police." Men Changnan paraphrased what He Yue said just now.

He Yue ignored it and asked directly: "Why?"

"Are you sure you want to listen to my confession?" Men Changnan shook his head, he looked very helpless: "Well...it's just a common and cliché reason, just to win Hengtong." Halfway through the talk, he also felt that It seems ridiculous to kill people for the sake of building a company, so I laughed out loud.

He Yue turned a blind eye to this, and still looked indifferent: "Is it you or him?"

Men Changnan put away his smile a little, and asked He Yue: "Is there any difference?" Although He Yue didn't clearly say who "he" refers to, Men Changnan understood and laughed at himself: "I'm just him. white gloves."

"Is this also in your confession?" He Yue continued to ask.

"Not here." Men Changnan's eyes were full of amusement: "But he is half dead now, no different from being sentenced to death."

The visiting time is only 15 minutes, He Yue calculated the time, and 5 minutes have passed: "I still have a question, the one who installed the camera in my car—"

"It's me." Men Changnan rushed to admit that he has nothing to hide now: "He Yue, this plan is much earlier than you imagined, since I was called back by him, it was doomed to have such a plan. One day, everything is fake, it's all lies."

He Yue was not surprised when he heard this answer. After receiving the police's notice, he and his mother got on the plane back to J City immediately.On the plane, Mother He whispered to him over and over again the few words revealed by the police on the phone, and He Yue gradually connected some things together, forming a rough pattern in his mind.

Men Changnan said: "My car was broken on purpose. I don't have a cat, and I'm not gay. I pretended to be gay to tempt you just to make trouble for you in the future. But the existence of Wang Chengyi is really a coincidence. He compares I am much more suitable, others can only be used as a handle at most, but he can become your weakness, and the effect is outstanding."

When He Yue heard the word "Wang Chengyi", his expression moved slightly, and he was immediately suppressed by him: "Sure enough, he made a good plan."

"But that time when I came out of the hotel, what I said about my life experience is true." Men Changnan raised his finger and pointed at the tip of his nose, gradually becoming sharper: "I am Menqi's biological son, but in He only has one child in his heart, and that is Men Changyang, who obviously have the same blood, but I was the only one who was excluded."

He Yue looked at the increasingly distorted face, and finally saw the shadow of a criminal in Men Changnan: "So you don't have a bottom line, and you can even kill people to please him."

Men Changnan was taken aback suddenly: "What kind of eyes are you looking at me with? You think I'm crazy, right?"

He Yue said nothing.

"That's right, but I'm not the only one who is crazy." Men Changnan said: "Men Qi is crazy, he has done everything he can to get a chairman's seat, the best office in Hengtong Building, It's ridiculous. I'm crazy too. In order to let him admit my surname and identity, I went to help him with dirty work, and I didn't even dare to fart." Men Changnan shook his head to himself, his tone unexpectedly Relieved: "Men Changyang is also crazy, but he is the most normal one, sometimes I wonder if there is some defect in the genes of the Men family that makes us all crazy. "

There were 3 minutes left in the visiting time, the sun was shifting, and the sunlight was no longer on Men Changnan's body. Taking off the soft light, it was like taking off a layer of skin, revealing the filthy inside.

"Anyway, I've had enough." Men Changnan leaned back, and the phone line was stretched straight by him.Seeing that the 3 minutes were gone, He Yue was still so calm, which made Men Changnan feel bored: "You are so calm, it will give me the illusion that you have forgiven me."

"I will find the best lawyer and do my best to send you to the place where you should go." He Yue glanced at his watch again, and said ruthlessly into the microphone: "Go to hell, Men Changnan. "

This is by no means a pale curse, He Yue will definitely do what he says.

"I should go to hell, because I wasn't forced, I was a dog voluntarily, but Men Qi didn't know that even if I was a dog, I was still a dog that could bite people." Men Changnan saw that He Yue was standing behind him The auxiliary policeman standing not far away came over and signaled that He Yue's visiting time was up. He said quickly, "Guess why Men Changyang's illness can't be cured for a long time? The corners of the walls inside and outside the house are all blunt." , Where did Men Changyang get the knife and use it to commit suicide?"

He Yue frowned, and put down the microphone with his hand down, his disgust was beyond words.

The auxiliary police took He Yue to the door, and there was a sudden crash behind them. It was Men Changnan who was patting the glass with his hand.

"You should thank me! He Yue!"

Men Changnan shouted hysterically, his voice was suppressed in the glass, and then he was pushed to the ground without making any sound.

Outside the reception room, there were still people waiting for He Yue.

He Yue saw the middle-aged man in the police uniform as soon as he glanced at him, and he stepped forward: "Officer Liu, thank you for your help."

This person is the person in charge of the case, an old criminal policeman who was helped by He Xincheng in the early years, and now he has taken over the case, which is also embarrassing.

"It's all trivial." Officer Liu waved his hand and led him out: "I'll take you out."

He Yue followed, followed Officer Liu down the stairs, and stopped in front of the gate.

A curtain was hung on the door, but the cold air from outside still sneaked in. He Yue put his hands in his pockets: "Officer Liu, is it convenient for me to know the details of the case?"

"The investigation is over, so it's okay to tell you about it." Officer Liu pulled him to stand next to a radiator.

"During the initial investigation, it's not that I didn't suspect the nature of the accident. Over there, I specifically checked whether the driver who caused the accident had received a large amount of remittance, but nothing was found out, so it was regarded as an accident. The car accident was dealt with, and it was not handed over to me until I received a report and re-examined the case." Officer Liu recalled: "It can be regarded as a change in the plan. When the suspect found the truck driver, they discussed a charity. He gave his child a donation in the name of the organization, and he can receive it when he becomes an adult, and the driver only needs to go in and squat for a few years, which seems to be a good deal. Think about how easy it is for a truck to crush a car, but who would have imagined that an explosion could happen , The truck driver put his life into it, and now his wife is not happy, clamoring to call the police and expose him, the suspect can only continue to use money to appease him. And the truck driver's wife no longer accepts donations, you must see When it comes to cash, the result is that the second transaction process leaked, and we also started to go deeper from here.”

However, He Yue focused on Officer Liu's words: "Report?"

"Well, someone reported it."

"Can you tell me who reported it?"

Officer Liu thought for a moment: "I can only tell you that the informant's surname is Wang."
