am i dead

Chapter 40

Eggy was terribly embarrassed.

I was restless, and I didn't know whether to go up to persuade the fight, or shut up at the right time.

After all, Tao He is the best buddy, and he couldn't walk away when he encountered this matter, so he had to stay and smooth things over. Tao Zi finally calmed down after arguing for a while, and sat on the side, weeping silently.

Tao He took the cigarette tremblingly, but couldn't take it out after holding it for a long time.

Seeing this, Eggy hurriedly picked up the cigarette case and took it out for him, "It's alright, alright... I'm so angry... How about I find someone to beat that kid?"

Before he finished speaking, Tao Zi jumped up again, "What did you say?"

The cigarette case in Eggy's hand fell to the ground, "Sister, I was wrong, just think I was farting just now."

Tao He's face was pale, and he looked at Eggy, "Shut up, she's sick."

After finishing speaking, the phone on the desk began to ring.

Tao He didn't intend to answer at all, just sat on the side and smoked without looking at Tao Zi.

The atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point, Dandan laughed stiffly twice,

"...If you have something to say, talk about it...Really...Hey, sister, let me introduce you...Actually, I don't think Duan Fang is very good..."

Tao Zi glared at him with two peachy eyes.

Eggy hurriedly changed her words, "It's not bad, it's not bad, but it's all divided, it's useless for you to be so sad. I've been with Tao He for so many years, and you're just like my own sister. I'll definitely find you a match." Duan Fang is okay, really."

Tao He was irritated by the ringing of the phone, and after he raised his hand to unplug the line, there was a knock on the door.

He hesitated, slowly.

Eggy glanced at Tao He first, and then asked, "Who is it?"

Xiao Liu pushed open the door tremblingly, revealing a gap, and whispered,

"That... Mr. Tao... is the chairman's call... You should answer it..."

Upon hearing this, Eggy hurried over to connect the phone line.

The phone started to ring again, Dandan picked up the phone and stuffed it into Tao He's hand,

"Dude, don't make trouble for yourself."

Tao He flicked the cigarette ash and answered the phone with a calm tone.

Tao Zi on the side was also silent, listening with his ears up.

Tao He had no expression on his face.

"Well, she's here."

Tao Zi shook his shoulders, and hurriedly took out the makeup mirror from his handbag to take a picture.

Tao He held the phone in silence for a while,

"I see, it's okay, she is also in a bad mood..."

Then he added, "That's right, I just have something to ask you for leave. In about a day or two, a friend of mine from another place got married and the relationship is very good..."

After waiting for a while, the other side agreed, Tao He hung up the phone, put out the cigarette butt in his hand, and still didn't go to see Tao Zi, "I told you to come over."

Tao Zi took out a small tube of foundation from her bag, squeezed out a drop and wiped her face in the mirror,

"No, he must dislike me."

Tao He was a little helpless, "Don't be afraid of being scolded if you feel like making trouble."

Seeing this, Eggy smiled, "Sister, go over quickly, you will be scolded if you go late."

Tao Zi stood up, brushed her hair, and faced Tao He, "Is my face okay?"

Tao He looked up at him, "It's pretty bad."

Tao Zi rolled his eyes, "I warn you, don't worry about my affairs from now on."

After speaking, he slammed the door and left.

Tao He said again, "Who cares about you, I'm for myself."

"She's gone away," Eggy tilted her head and took a look outside, "He'er, I just heard you say that your sister is stupid, but looking at it this way, it's true. She was cheated by a man and still likes him. This woman is too hard-hearted." Soft, if I am a woman who plays with me, I will be good friends with whoever helps me get her..."

After speaking, he suddenly remembered, "By the way, if it's not convenient for you to find that kid, I'll help you find him..."

Tao He looked gloomy, "You don't need to look for it, you can't find it at all."

Eggy was taken aback, "Huh?"

Tao He moved the mouse, "I've been asking about him for several days, but I haven't heard anything about him."

Eggy thought for a while, "Hiding it? Is it because you are afraid of tossing us, or because of your grandpa..."

Tao He made the final arrangement of the information in the computer without looking up,

"The old man didn't touch him. Now I suspect that he knows that I'm looking for him. I always feel that this is a deliberate avoidance. You see, he doesn't even use the mobile phone number he has used for so many years, and he was still working on it half a month ago. I'm looking for Ji Yao, I checked the recent call records of Ji Yao's mobile phone, and no one has harassed him for a long time."

After listening to Eggy, she seemed to have come to her senses, "What's wrong with you... Why do I feel that you suddenly seem to hate him very much recently..."

Tao He ignored him, and after finishing his work, he used his landline to call his subordinate and explained a few words.

Eggy waited for him to finish the phone call, and asked again: "By the way, you Chafa... I'm not afraid that your grandpa will know."

Tao He turned sideways, looking for something in the folder next to him, "I've already done it with him, and the private detective he hired will make a fake for me."

"Fuck..." Eggy's face was full of disbelief, "You boy... you've done so many things behind my back recently..."

Tao He took out a document, "I can't do things under surveillance, so I went to scare that person, and now it seems that the effect is not bad."

Eggy fiddled with the men's ring on her finger, "Then what are you going to do now, do you want me to help you find Duan Fang in other places?"

Tao He said, "I have already found out where his hometown is, and I think I will go there in the next two days. Aren't you busy finishing everything in your hand?"

Eggy suddenly realized, "So that's why you asked your old man for leave just now..."

Tao He responded and continued to work.

Eggy was a little curious, "Where is his house? What are you doing at his house? If he's not here, he might just go home."

Tao He made the final arrangements for the paper materials, and when everything was done, he raised his head and looked at Eggy, "His family is in a township below Linxian County in this city. He is a single parent, and there is only one mother in the family. He passed away from stomach cancer a while ago, and his stepfather took his two older sisters with him, so it's easy to find out where his family lives, he is the most famous Golden Phoenix there, and any old man at the entrance of the village will know his home."

Tao He's tone was flat, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter,

"I still remember Tao Zi said that he broke up with Tao Zi because of his mother's death. Now that he is a single parent, her mother must be very important to him. Since this is the case... he will always come to me for his mother. Bar."

Eggy was horrified when he heard that, "Brother...what do you want...you are fucking crazy..."

Tao He seemed to smile, took the document in his hand,

"It's done, I'm leaving."

Tao He went to see Ji Yao at night, because Ji Yao was busy with work, so the two just talked together for a while, and Ji Yao went back to work overtime.

At noon the next day, Tao He took a few people onto the Provincial Highway.

There were a total of two cars for the trip, both of which were low-end models. Tao He purposely asked someone to borrow them, but he didn't want to attract too much attention in that kind of place.

It’s very fast to get to the county seat. It takes about an hour on the provincial road. It’s just that it’s much more difficult to go to the countryside from the county. Several sections of the road are difficult to walk. It’s impossible to drive the navigation. Tao He finally followed a passenger car Arrived at the country passenger station.

This passenger terminal is nothing more than a dilapidated yard. There is a grocery store at the door, and there are a few passenger cars parked inside. They are all obsolete on the market. There is no air-conditioned car, all of which can open the windows.

Tao He drove on the main street for 2 minutes, and he walked through the most prosperous area of ​​this place.

Turning back, Tao He stopped in front of a hotel that looked okay, planning to rest here.

It was said to be a hotel, but it was actually a hotel, and the inside was not as good as the outside. The sheets were all blue and white. Tao He couldn't bear it, so after walking around the room, he simply returned to the car and stayed there.

At around six o'clock, the few people who brought him all went out to eat. Tao He was not in the mood, so he smoked outside.

Except for a few shops on the main street, the rest of the places are residential houses. The fences are made of withered sunflower poles. flower plate.

In the distance is an endless field, I don't know what to plant, surrounded by clusters of small wild flowers, and there is a clear fragrance of flowers in the air.

The swarthy little boy stood by and watched Tao He for a long time, timidly, curious but not daring to approach him.

Tao He only found out when he finished smoking a cigarette.

The little boy met his eyes and took a step back.

Tao He looked down at him, curved his lips into a smile, showing his perfectly white teeth,

"come over."

The little boy hesitated for a while, then took a few steps forward, pointed at Tao He's watch, "Your bracelet is really pretty..."

Tao He looked at his Vacheron Constantin, raised his eyes and asked him, "How old are you?"

The little boy stretched out four dirty fingers, showing a gaping tooth, "Three and a half years old."

Tao He smiled, "Uncle asked you a question, if you know, I will give you this bracelet."

The boy touched Tao He's watch carefully,

"No, my mother should beat me up."

Tao He squatted down and stared at the boy, "Do you know Duan Fang?"

"I know, he is our number one scholar," the boy stared at Tao He's watch and touched it repeatedly, "Zhang Guiquan is so proud, I will be like him in the future."

Tao Hejing was silent for a while, "Then do you know where the fuck is buried?"

The boy widened his eyes, thought for a while, then turned his head and pointed to the east, "There is a cemetery over there, where the dead are all there, and Zhang Guiquan is also there. Uncle Duan repaired her grave more beautifully than the secretary. His wife is pretty..."

It seems that the information collected before is very accurate.

Tao He took off the watch and just handed it to the child, when a woman jumped out from the front right, picked up the boy and beat him twice, snatched the watch from his hand, put it back to Tao He, and apologized repeatedly .

Tao He was rather embarrassed.

and was touched,

The boy is actually an irrelevant person, obviously so innocent.

It's the same as Duan Fang's mother.

Tao He even wanted to drive back directly.

This kind of thought continued until it was completely dark, from when the candles were brightly lit and the smoke was curling up, to when there was no sound.

Tao He couldn't remember how many cigarettes he had smoked, his brain hurt and buzzed, and even when the headlights were turned on, he was startled.

After finally staggering to the east cemetery, Tao He glanced at his watch when the engine was turned off.

Two in the morning.

The rest of the people opened the trunk and took out the shovel. Someone leaned forward and pressed it against Tao He's ear, "Brother, is that Zhang Guiquan?"

Tao He glanced sideways outside,

The moonlight was cold, and pale stone monuments stood upright, like the aggressive teeth of the earth, as if something would rush out from inside at any time and bite people to pieces.

Tao He is turning his head, expressionless,

"Dig it out and take the ashes."
