Outside the cordon, people from the inner three floors and the outer three floors surrounded Shi's house and pointed. The police came and went in a hurry, surveying the scene and questioning witnesses.

Lingshan Town has always been peaceful, and such vicious criminal cases rarely occurred. This time, the Shi family took the lead and immediately became the focus of the entire Lingshan Town.

Shi Xiaochuan looked worriedly at Mama Shi, who had been petrified. Several policemen surrounded her, and they didn't know what they were asking. Mama Shi just shook her head, covered her face with a towel and cried intermittently, while sitting on the sofa. The ashtray in front of Papa Shi was already full of cigarette butts. He was smoking one after another, his hands were shaking a little, and he was trying his best to calm himself down and report the situation to the police.

The person died at the door of Shi's house, and the deceased was Mama Shi's former lover. No matter how you look at it, the hostess killed someone in order to get rid of her old friend's entanglement, and her current husband is the most suspected murderer under jealousy. According to this way of handling the case, the police were seriously inquiring about the details from last night to before the discovery of the body.

And Shi Xiaochuan quietly ran back to his room, stuffed the box containing Xiaobai under the bed, and threw some unused books and clothes in. He stood in the room, thought for a while, and felt that After insurance, he returned to the living room.

The policeman was actually very helpless. This man named Zhou Ming died really strangely. Apart from the fear revealed in those eyes that were dying, telling what happened to him, there were no obvious scars on his body, let alone the murder weapon and fingerprints. , he seemed to be frightened to death by something.

You said, is there anything that can scare a healthy living person to death?This is not the wilderness. There are wild beasts like wolves, tigers and leopards. It is really puzzling for such a strange thing to happen in a town.

Don't call it a ghost. Now that you have been educated in materialism for several generations, if you say it is a ghost, you will only be laughed to death.

After the corpse was discovered, they immediately sent someone to report to the deceased's home. After noon, an old man in his 60s came. As soon as he arrived, he threw himself on Zhou Ming's corpse and wailed loudly, shouting, "Son, son!" , you died unjustly."

The old man who was crying looked up and saw Shi Xiaochuan's family in the living room. Wiping away his tears, he jumped up and rushed over, grabbing Mama Shi's hand, "Where is my grandson? I only have that grandson left, you I can't let my grandson recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, you have to be conscientious, my Zhou family can't have no descendants."

Mama Shi's face turned blue and pale for a while, and she looked at Papa Shi opposite. Papa Shi seemed to have just realized it, put out the cigarette butt on the low glass table, and stood up, "Let's make things clear today, Luo Yun, him." Papa Shi pointed at Shi Xiaochuan, "Whose one is it?"

Mother Shi pulled her hand back with all her strength, straightened her messy hair, wiped the towel on her face, and threw it on the table, "We want to make things clear, Shi Xiaochuan, come here."

Shi Xiaochuan, who was startled by the loud shout, looked at everyone in the room looking at him, and suddenly felt a little nervous.

He moved to Mama Shi's side, and Mama Shi grabbed his hand, "I'll tell you today, Shi Yue, he is your son, whether you believe it or not, if you don't believe it, today I will have an affair with Shi Xiaochuan." Families, our mothers and I will live our own lives, if you believe me, don't mention this trouble again, after so many years, I am also tired, and I don't want to guess again and again on this matter with you."

Mother Shi's eyes were red, she turned her head and looked at the old man.

"Auntie, you know the relationship between me and Zhou Ming before. It happened so many years ago. How did I get here when Zhou Ming left? Everyone in the village regarded me as a joke. My parents He still says that I miss me. I dare not even go back to my mother’s house. Now he comes back so suddenly and wants to be nice to me. Pooh, why should he? I have nothing to do with him. If I really had his child back then, Even if I die, I will not give birth to this evil seed."

Seeing a murder case turned into an ethical drama, and watching enough of the police drama next to him, he ran out to smooth things over at this time, dragged the old man and walked out.

But the old man was very stubborn. When he saw Shi Xiaochuan, his cloudy eyes lit up. He probably just lost his own son, so he put his only hope on Shi Xiaochuan. If he didn't pay attention, he ran away. When she got to Shi Xiaochuan's side, "My child, come with me. I am your grandma. Your father told me that he left you a lot of good things." She wiped her tears, "My poor son, life is not good."

The scene was noisy, Papa Shi, who had patted the table and stood up, didn't know why, but faced the tough Mama Shi, his attitude softened again, he said something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Shi Xiaochuan looked at Mother Shi, then at the old man, and felt that he had become a sandwich biscuit, so he couldn't just throw the old man away, right?What if we bump into each other?Besides, the old man was crying pitifully, and tears were streaming down his old face.

Often busy for a long time, I took all the relevant people to the police station to question, but found no clues. Now I can only wait for the forensic doctor in the city to send the autopsy results to see if there is any breakthrough.

However, Shi's family fell into chaos. Zhou Ming's old mother went to the door of Shi's house every day to beg and beg Shi's mother to send Shi Xiaochuan back to Zhou's family to recognize his ancestors.

Terrible.

No matter how resolute Mama Shi's attitude was, under such circumstances, the knot in Papa Shi's heart that had not been let go would grow bigger and bigger. As soon as the men and women outside saw him, they would ask about it first. What does it mean, he is not a wooden man, what is unclear?

But he didn't seem to have any intention of arguing with Shi's mother anymore, just with a stiff face, Shi's mother ignored him when talking to him, and he spent less and less time at home, and he didn't see anyone all day and night. At that time, Shi's mother even leaned up to warm her face to stick his cold buttocks, seeing that he didn't come back at night and went around looking for people, but later, she became indifferent.

Shi Xiaochuan wanted to go back to school, and after talking to Mama Shi, Mama Shi finally nodded in agreement, which surprised Shi Xiaochuan, looking at Mama Shi's haggard face, he wanted to say something to comfort Mama Shi , but the relationship between mother and child has always been unfamiliar, so he couldn't say anything when he got to his lips. In the end, he could only bow his head and walk out silently.

He walked along the road to Lingshan Town Middle School, thinking about things while walking. He was carrying a big bag in his hand, and the things in it were a bit heavy, so he had to walk for a while to rest.

It was cold, with a bone-chilling chill in the air.

Shi Xiaochuan felt a little hot, his forehead was sweating slightly, and his hand holding the bag was cold. He looked at his white breath and sighed, "Don't follow me."

Standing beside him was Zhou Ming's old mother.

She looked at Shi Xiaochuan lovingly, but this did not move Shi Xiaochuan, but made him a little creepy. This old man who lost his son is obviously not normal. He is talking about it every day. Looking at the baby left by his son.

Shi Xiaochuan had no interest in what Zhou Ming left behind, and he was also very afraid that he was Zhou Ming's child. At that time, Shi's mother resolutely denied it, which actually made him breathe a sigh of relief.

But how to let this old man leave?He thought with a headache.

The old man has been trying to get him to visit his home in a neighboring county. Shi Xiaochuan thought about it and made a decision, "Then I'll go and have a look with you, but I'm really not your grandson. If I go, you can always You can't stop following me."

When the old man heard what he said, he laughed happily and nodded his head hastily. Shi Xiaochuan looked at her helplessly, stretched out his hand to stop a bus, and sat on it with the old man.

An hour later, they arrived at their destination.

The old man walked forward, Shi Xiaochuan followed behind with a bag, her home was on the side of the road, Shi Xiaochuan watched the old man open the door, and followed inside.

It seemed that no one had lived in this house for a long time, and there was a gloomy and cold atmosphere. Shi Xiaochuan looked around, and suddenly had the urge to go out, but he forced himself to follow the old man to the inside.

Inside is a mourning hall, on which there are two black and white portraits.

When Shi Xiaochuan saw the two portraits, his whole body froze. Of the two portraits, one was Zhou Ming, and the other looked exactly like him?

Just looking at his expressionless face on the altar, Shi Xiaochuan finally knew where the creepy feeling coming from the bottom of his heart came from.

The old man was standing beside Ling'an, with a secretive smile on his face, stroking the two photos over and over again with his thin fingers.

Shi Xiaochuan took a step back slowly, and when he was about to turn around and run away, he heard the old man say, "This is your grandfather."

He felt that something inside his body was smashed to pieces with a "crash".
