Revenge, instead of waiting for her to take your life, why not let you, who gave birth to me, take your life and you will suffer less pain! Pu Junxi yelled, pressing the knife in his hand hard, as if he really wanted to kill Pu Ye.

I sighed, and then shouted loudly: "Mr. Park! Chen Qi is by your side, she doesn't want revenge!"

Of course, they reacted like normal people. The sound of the knife falling to the ground was heard in their ears. Park Junxi, who had ignored me before, was rare. He looked at me and started to panic. Back up.

"She, she is here! Is she really here?" Pu Junxi didn't stop until his body hit the table in the room, his eyes scanning the room in horror.

I nodded, walked slowly to the table, and then sat down. I pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down. Chen Qi wants me to convey something to her."

Pu Junxi's body was shaking non-stop. It took him a long time before he could sit firmly. However, the man named Pu Ye at the door was already crawling on the door and crying in his arms. The sound was unpleasant enough.

I looked at Pu Ye and shook my head, then said, "Chen Qi, you should know him too!"

Park Junxi nodded with a pale face. His mouth opened and closed, closed and opened again. I asked again: "She is your patient, right? Is the surgery a skin transplant?"

This time, he did not nod, but suddenly asked: "Is she really here?" I frowned in confusion, and after a long while, I nodded seriously to express that she was really here.

Suddenly Pu Junxi knelt down from the chair, banging his head again and again, with tears in his eyes, until his forehead turned blue, he said: "Chen Qi, I am sorry for you! Please! If you let Ye'er go, if you have to pay with your life, I'll use my old life to pay it back to you for that unscrupulous man!"

The place where he knelt down was not where Chen Qi was, because she was sitting next to me. I looked at her, and she only said: "Let him get up! I'm not here to pay for my life!"

Of course I conveyed it verbatim. Pu Junxi's legs were shaking incomprehensibly, and he slowly stood up, with tears already streaming down his face.

"It turns out his name is Pu Ye! He didn't even tell me his real name during the years he was with me!" Chen Qi said to herself.

I sighed lowly and looked at Huo Xiaoran who was standing at the door. It wasn't until he motioned for me to explain my intention directly that I said to Pu Junxi: "Mr. Pu! Don't be nervous, Chen Qi has never thought about it. Find someone to take revenge on, otherwise, you would have died long ago, wouldn’t you?”

I have personally experienced the revenge of ghosts, and I think I will never forget that night in my life!

"Thank you! Thank you!" Pu Junxi wiped away tears and looked around, but couldn't find the direction.

Chen Qi just responded: "Don't thank me. I have never complained about anyone. If I really want to complain, it can only be me. I only blame myself for being too deep in it. I blame myself for being blind and not seeing clearly." , the one you love deeply is not the same person!"

Of course, I didn't say this. I changed my position and sat across from Park Junxi. Looking at him, I felt a little sad, because as a father, it was a failure of my life to teach such children. , no matter how successful he is in his career, he still fails. The daughter of Zhenwei died.

"Mr. Park! I want to know if the transplant patient is a girl named Liu Mei?" I asked directly.

He was still a little absent-minded, and it wasn't until I asked again that he nodded: "Yes! I remember that name!"

This time I took out the voice recorder from my pocket, and before opening it, I said: "I want to tell you directly, this recording may one day be made public, and by that day, your career may be marked." It’s over.”

Pu Junxi lowered his head, just glanced at me, and nodded heavily: "The moment I decided to help that unscrupulous man, my life has come to an end!"

"Thank you for telling me about Chen Qi's death. Otherwise, she would be resentful and unable to leave! Her family may also spend their lives in endless search!" I said seriously.

But he started crying again, his body was shaking, and he wanted to rush to where Pu Ye was, but Chen Qi asked me to hold him back.

"Mr. Park! Please tell me what happened that day!"

Pu Junxi slumped in the chair and began to think about it. His deep voice made him look even older. His hands were trembling on the table, and tears fell on the table drop by drop. After a while, there was already a piece of It was wet, my voice was whimpering, and I even broke down in tears several times.

But I heard regret in his voice, and he involved himself in it without any reservation. He even deliberately expressed that the reason why he agreed to have this surgery was because the price was very high. Gao, he also said that he was obsessed with money.

In fact, I know very well that even in the end, this father still wants to leave a glimmer of hope for his son, because I said that this recording will be released to the world. Even if he gave everything he had, he still wanted his children to live well.

At the end of the sentence, he suddenly stood up and said to me: "I still have the medical records from that time." After saying that, he left the table and walked to the second floor. At this time, I looked at the person who was still there. The trembling man on the ground, Chen Qi, was standing next to him, looking at him.

I was thinking that maybe Chen Qi still wanted to ask that man if he had ever truly loved her, but in the end, Chen Qi still didn't say a word, not even hate.

After a while, Pu Junxi came down from upstairs, holding a few folders and placing them in front of me. I opened them and looked at them. The contents were complete, including Liu Mei's medical records, all Chen Qi's examination reports at that time, All of them!

"And this! I just didn't want to be blackmailed by that woman again, so I made this recording." He put a voice recorder in front of me.

windfall

"This is this?" I looked at it curiously and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Pu Junxi didn't say much, lowered his head and said: "I didn't expect it to be useful one day! But if it can alleviate Ye'er's sins, even if my life comes to an end, it will be worth it."

I nodded, wanting to say something comforting, but what could I say? Huo Xiaoran suddenly appeared next to me and pointed at the recording pen. In fact, it was not just him who was curious, but I was also curious. At first, we just wanted to get the certificate of Liu Mei's surgery, but unexpectedly we got this .

When it was opened, there was just a conversation that was not too long.

"If I accept your request, will Ye'er's debt be considered to be fully settled?" This was Park Junxi's voice.

"Of course! And on the day the operation is successful, I will return these IOUs to you! Also, I will pay the full cost of the operation! There is only one request. No one can know about this matter. I will personally send someone to deal with the aftermath. You just need to complete the operation properly!"

This voice is very familiar to me. Who else could it be if it wasn’t Yunli

"This is a major operation. I will arrange it as soon as possible. I will make a detailed assessment and make the most reasonable arrangement. The patient can be sent directly to my hospital!"

"The most reasonable?" Yunli's voice sounded confused: "I just want to be the fastest! The faster, the better!"

"Fastest? Are you kidding me? I've seen the patient's information. With severe burns all over her body, it's strange that she didn't die. If she undergoes such an operation again, her body will need time to adapt to the surgical treatment! What's more, Children who provide skin are already rare, and people only have so much skin. After a transplant, the provider also needs time to recover, and that all takes time!" You can hear Park Junxi trying to explain.

Yun Li's charming voice suddenly became a little impatient: "I don't care so much! One month! I want you to complete the operation within one month. As for the life and death of the transplant recipient, that's not what you have to worry about!"

"You! Are you kidding me? That's human life! You, aren't you asking me to kill someone?" Pu Junxi's voice trembled.

Yun Li suddenly laughed: "You don't have to worry about this. I will handle the aftermath of this matter. You just need to perform the operation for Liu Mei! Don't forget, you have no right to choose, your son It depends on how you handle this matter!"

"you!"

The recording stopped after the word "you"!

I looked at the pen in front of me stupidly, unable to recover, until Pu Ye buried his head on the ground and cried loudly: "I'm sorry! Chen Qi, I'm sorry for you!"

"I always, always thought that she just needed some skin from you. I never thought that she would kill you because of it! Chen Qi!" He cried loudly.

I looked at him. To be honest, I don’t know if he really didn’t know that Yunli would kill Chen Qi. Maybe even Chen Qi on the side didn’t know if what Pu Ye said now was true. !

But at least things have developed now, and it is very clear that regardless of whether Pu Ye knew whether Chen Qi would die from the beginning, her death was because of Yunli!

In order to turn Liu Mei into me, she even sacrificed a living life!

I sighed in a low voice, Huo Xiaoran put his hand on my shoulder, and asked Chen Qi who was aside: "Maybe things are different from what you thought when things develop today! We won't say too much, so , you can figure it out yourself!"

After saying that, he pulled me, and I stood up and said to Park Junxi: "Mr. Park, thank you for giving these to me!"

Without saying anything, I was about to leave. Before going out, Pu Ye, who had only been crying all this time, suddenly hugged my leg and asked with a cry: "Chen, Chen Qi, is she still here?"

I looked up and saw Chen Qi, who was standing next to him, nodded, and left with Huo Xiaoran without saying anything more.

Things here are no longer something I, an outsider, can explain clearly in a few words. In any case, one of them is the one who sold Chen Qi, and the other is the one who killed Chen Qi with his own hands. They all owe Chen Qi this. Yes, as for what Chen Qi wants to do and how to do it, that is all Chen Qi’s own business!

On the way back to the hotel, I couldn't help but ask Huo Xiaoran: "With all this, Yunli is probably doomed!"

Huo Xiaoran didn't say anything. He didn't say anything until he returned to the room: "These are only part of the evidence. Don't be too happy. This time, we are going to uncover everything and use her to Use the fake Mo Xiaoya as an excuse to uncover your case from back then."

"My case?" I asked confused.

He nodded and said: "That's right! Only in this way can you change back to yourself, and only in this way can you relieve the long-standing hatred in your heart, isn't it?"

I didn't expect that Huo Xiaoran would understand me so well. Because of so many things that happened in the prison, I still often wake up at night.

But I never mentioned the many nightmares that haunted me. How did he know

"Don't worry!" Huo Xiaoran's cold hand held mine, and his jewel-like eyes looked directly at me: "With me here, you don't have to bear those anymore, put down the fear in your heart, you Just follow me and look at me, I will become a sharp knife in your hands. As long as I have harmed you, I will personally repay the pain to them! As long as I owe you, I will personally repay them for you. Get back everything you owe!"

I looked at him. This was the first time that he had made such a solemn promise to me. My mind was buzzing and my eyes were staring straight at him. It wasn’t that I had forgotten how to respond, but that I didn’t know. How to respond!

"Don't worry! These are all of my own free will, and you don't owe me anything!" After the words fell, Huo Xiaoran suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes.

The moment he disappeared, I suddenly wanted to hold on to him, but when I stretched out my hand, there was no one in front of me. I stretched out my hand, imagining that he was still in front of me, and tears finally fell.

Although he said that I didn't owe him anything, I knew it myself. Not only did I owe him, but I also owed my life...

I remembered the pain that surrounded my whole body when the poison took effect that day, as well as the female prisoners who punched and kicked me in the prison, and the woman who was beaten to death by Huo Xiaoran. Which time was it not he who saved me? He killed me, and for once, it wasn't him who protected me!

That night, I stared at the moonlit sky alone, and my eyes always flashed back to that night. Huo Xiaoran was standing by the window, and the moonlight was falling on him. He was as proud as a fairy in the sky. I I began to imagine what kind of person he must have been during his lifetime. In the end, until the red color appeared in the east, I still could not outline the image of his lifetime.

When the alarm clock set on my phone rang, I came back to my senses. Huo Xiaoran said yesterday that today is the day to go back. It is rare to come here to get these. After we go back, we will have more things to do. He had mentioned it yesterday, but Huo Xiaojin might not be able to withstand it for a few days.

When I thought that someone else would die because of Yunli's greedy heart, I couldn't help clenching my fists!

The flight ticket was booked last night, but I, Chen Qi, haven't come back yet. I couldn't help but feel a little worried. Picking up Huo Xiaoran's box, I suddenly remembered the promise he made to me yesterday, and I wanted to call him out. , ask, in the end, I still couldn’t scream.

Chen Qi, she is just a ghost. Maybe I don’t need to worry too much about her! Whether it's resentment or hatred, that's something I can't get involved in.

Before boarding the plane, I called Huo Xiaojin. Although he was happy when he received my call, it was not difficult to hear the fatigue in his voice. It seemed that he must have tried his best to protect Liu Mei. With all my strength.

"Is the sun okay?" I asked.

"Don't worry! Zuo Qing has been taking her with him. If there is any problem, he will notify me as soon as possible!" Huo Xiaojin said.

In fact, I really have nothing to worry about when the sun is left to Huo Xiaojin and Zuo Qing. My mother came to plan.

"I'll be back soon!" Actually, what I wanted to say was thank you, but I couldn't say it out loud. For Huo Xiaojin, it was no longer as simple as thank you.

He didn't say anything, he just told me that he would arrange for someone to pick me up. I answered and then hung up the phone.

Sure enough, when I came out of the airport, someone was already waiting for me. It was none other than Zuo Qing. I couldn't help but feel that Huo Xiaojin was making a fuss out of a molehill! Just arrange for anyone to come over, why does it have to be Zuo Qing!

After getting in the car, I asked, "Are Taiyang and Xiao Ming okay?"

Zuo Qing was still the same as before, his face always looked solemn and deserted. "Although it's only been a few days, Miss misses you very much. Fortunately, Zuo Ming is here, so she can make a fuss now and then, so forget it."

I laughed, and my mind was filled with the lovely appearance of the sun.

"Where is Huo Xiaojin? Is he okay?"

Zuo Qing smiled: "It's not easy to protect that woman. It took a lot of effort, sir, to avoid forcing her to hold a breath. After all, those doctors who were bribed wanted to die, and We are in the dark again, but aren’t you back now?”

I nodded. It seemed that Huo Xiaojin had put a lot of thought into protecting Liu Mei. As long as Liu Mei lives well and I collect all the evidence, it will be over.

When I got home, as soon as I opened the door, the sun was already on my lap, calling my mother sweetly with a sweet little voice, with tears hanging from the corners of my eyes!

"Taiyang! Mom misses you too!" Holding the sun in my arms, although it was only a few days apart, the thoughts in my heart can only be felt by a mother.

"From now on! I will never let mom leave Taiyang again. Taiyang will dream about mom every day!" Taiyang's chubby little hands were wrapped around my neck.

When I looked at Huo Xiaojin and was about to thank him for taking care of the sun, he happened to hang up the phone in his hand, and his face didn't look very good.

Soul Sacrifice Skin

Huo Xiaojin looked at me with a serious expression: "Where's Liu Mei?"

I unconsciously looked at Huo Xiaoran beside me, and Huo Xiaoran became thoughtful. After a while, he said: "Liu Mei, please give up first! Let her do as Yun Li asks."

Although I was confused, I still conveyed it to Huo Xiaojin word for word. After he nodded, he just said he would be back later and left. It seemed that he was going to arrange Liu Mei's affairs.

Because the sun didn't want to get off my body, I had to ask Zuo Qing to help me carry Xingji into the room. When he left, I put the sun on the bed.

Huo Xiaoran couldn't wait any longer and hugged the sun, but it was the sun that should have looked at Huo Xiaoran's face. He actually screamed and looked around. I took the sun back and asked nervously: "What's wrong?"

There was no joy on Taiyang's face, but he looked around nervously, holding me tightly with his two little hands: "Mom! What is it! What was it that was holding Taiyang just now?" Taiyang said at the end. He just hugged me and started crying.

I stared at Huo Xiaoran with wide eyes, what on earth is going on

"Sun!" I patted her back and called her softly: "Sun, don't you see anything?"

The sun slowly raised its head and looked at me. With a confused look on my face, I shook my head, and my whole heart sank, and Huo Xiaoran next to me was no better than me!

I stayed until the time when the sun was sleeping and coaxed the sun to sleep, and then I hurried back to the room. As expected, Huo Xiaoran was sitting in the air with a cold face.

"Huo Xiaoran, what is going on?" Of course he knew that I was referring to the sun.

There was no answer, Huo Xiaoran's face told me. He seemed a little confused about this matter. I'm not that calm: "Please tell me something! Why can't the sun see you? What's going on?"

Huo Xiaoran seemed to be annoyed by me and just said: "That kid has a problem!"

I didn't understand what he was talking about, and I was so anxious that I asked without thinking about it: "What! Who are you talking about!" When I thought that someone might be tampering with Yang Yang, I became even more anxious.

"Is it Chen Cheng?" I asked tentatively, thinking of the last time because of Chen Cheng's contact, Taiyang became faint. This time, how could the sun not even have the abilities he was born with!

What's more, it seems that Taiyang doesn't even remember Huo Xiaoran! In just a few days, who did what to the sun

"Huo Xiaoran! Please, tell me, what happened to the sun?" I couldn't control myself anymore. When I thought about what would happen to the sun, my whole heart felt like it was being pinched in someone's hand.

Huo Xiaoran suddenly stood next to me and put his hand on my shoulder: "Don't worry! No matter who it is, I will find them. I will definitely find them." His voice was no longer as cold as before.

Although I know crying can't solve any problems, I just need this to relieve the pain in my heart. Huo Xiaoran just stood beside me, looking at me from time to time, with pity and pity in his eyes, but he did not persuade me to stop.

Until I was tired of crying, it was almost daylight! Huo Xiaoran's cold hands touched my swollen eyes and said pitifully: "Look at your eyes crying like walnuts. It looks like the memory of the sun has been sealed, and it will not have any impact on the body. After Yunli's incident is over, we will find out the person who manipulated Taiyang."

Huo Xiaoran always does what he says! Naturally, I felt a lot more relaxed. Now I finally got a handle on Yun Li. If I missed it, maybe I would have to live with the name Xu Ya for the rest of my life.

After nodding, Huo Xiaoran said: "Don't worry, today is also the deadline that the old woman said. Just calm down today and do what I told you before. We can end Yunli's conspiracy as soon as possible!"

"I understand! Today I will carefully sort out the information about Liu Mei's surgery, and then carefully measure the entire process and sort out the gaps. After you can leave this box, we will complete these as soon as possible. Finished!" I told me my plan for today.

Huo Xiaoran laughed rarely, and then disappeared.

Because I didn't feel sleepy at all, I turned on the computer and started to look at the information I got back from Park Junxi in detail. It was very complete. The photos of Liu Mei before the operation and the photos after the operation were all good. There is one thing that I really can't figure out.

I started searching on the Internet. Regarding such a large-scale surgery, the recovery time is really weird. Not to mention that Liu Mei’s surgery can be completed in one month, and her body recovers so quickly in just one month. It’s absolutely amazing. It's abnormal!

I suddenly thought of Granny Chen, took out my cell phone, dug out her phone number, and called her. Fortunately, it was Granny Chen who answered the phone. The mother died happily.

"Taiyang's mother! Do you have a problem with the old lady?" Granny Chen responded.

After a few pleasantries, I explained the purpose of the call: "Grandma Chen, I just want to ask if there is any magic or the like that can make a person with burns all over his body recover within a month?"

Granny Chen suddenly became quiet. I think she was deep in thought. After a while, she said, "Recovery is impossible! Instead, we can remove it with the skin of a living person and then sacrifice it with a living soul. By unlocking the soul's ability, the body can recover as good as before within three days at the earliest."

When I heard this, I fell down on the bed. From my understanding, it was a terrible spell or something!

Until Grandma Chen asked on the phone: "Taiyang's mother, why are you asking this? This kind of magic is not something that ordinary practitioners can do. To sacrifice the soul to the skin, you need to be able to control the soul." Only talented people can do it!”

I felt goosebumps all over my body when I heard that. After answering Granny Chen, I changed the subject: "Grandma Chen, have you done any research on Chen Cheng's place?"

"We have some clues, but it will take some time to investigate the whole thing clearly!"

After saying thank you, I hung up the phone, took out a piece of paper and pen and wrote down the doubts in my mind. The first item was about Liu Mei's recovery time. I had never done this carefully before, but now I know Huo Xiaoran said at the time that a lot of things needed to be done to get the evidence out.

I finally understand now. Take the time of Liu Mei's surgery as an example. If I can't explain it, then the evidence will not be dangerous enough for Yunli. I suddenly understand that this is also the reason why Yunli came forward on her own. Maybe she is too. I figured this out early in the morning!

Looking further down, there is the issue of Chen Qi's body. If Liu Mei accepted Chen Qi's skin, and until Chen Qi died, the body would have to be found after this person died, right

Then, I wrote down the second item. If Chen Qi came back with us, it would be easy. But since I left Pu Junxi's place, I have never seen Chen Qi again.

After reading the information, I remembered what Huo Xiaoran said about the death case of Chen Ningrui! He hurriedly checked all the information that Huo Xiaoran had recorded in the computer.

In fact, if anyone looks at these information, they will think that I killed Chen Ningrui, plus the found pieces of paper that I asked Ji Yuan to send, An Qiang will become my helper! If this time, Yunli can be used to create Liu Mei's replacement and the case of Chen Ningrui's death can be uncovered, we will need to find the evidence of Chen Ningrui's death as well.

Looking at the records on the file, I started to think back bit by bit. The most favorable evidence pointing to me was the fruit knife with my fingerprints on it, that knife! I opened the picture on the computer, and he looked at it carefully and tried to recall it in his mind, yes! That's the knife!

The only thing I have ever used, and this is the first time I have ever used it, are the fruits and knives that Mrs. Wang gave to Yunli's house when we were at the Huo family! At that time, I peeled the fruit for Yunli with my own hands!

Thinking about it, I realized what was strange at that time. Normally, Mrs. Wang would peel the fruit carefully no matter whom she gave it to, but why on that day, the fruit she sent was not peeled, and I just wanted to take a picture of the clouds. Yun Li's flattery took the initiative to peel some fruit for Yun Li!

Yunli! I suddenly felt that this woman was really thoughtful. From that moment on, she was already thinking of ways to leave something to deal with me!

"Sister-in-law Wang!" I began to recall that smiling face that often appeared in my mind.

At that time, I always thought Mrs. Wang was a good person. Now, I can see clearly that few people in the Huo family are kind-hearted! It's like a big dye vat there. How can someone who can stand there be the same as it looks

An Qiang is like this! Yunli is like this, and even Huoningen is not what he seems! It's no wonder that Sister-in-law Wang is also different from what she looks like.

I wrote Mrs. Wang in my notebook and drew another circle! If you want to erase the most favorable evidence of that person’s resemblance to me, the only way to break through is Mrs. Wang!

But that woman, who has been in the Huo family for so many years, has probably given up on Yunli long ago! I'm afraid it won't be easy to break through from there.

I put the information away. This was the only thing I could do. Find out the doubts. When Huo Xiaoran comes out of the box, I can save a lot of time and make the next arrangements.

Bang, bang, bang…

"Xiaoya, are you there?" Huo Xiaojin's voice came from outside the door. I put my things away, opened the door, and walked out.

Huo Xiaojin whispered in my ear: "Liu Mei has already said hello. She keeps mentioning her brother, and I have comforted her. But until now, I haven't found where Liu Lin is hidden."

I nodded and looked at the tiredness on his face: "You didn't sleep last night, right? Now I don't know what to do next. I'll make plans later!" I don't know why, but I don't dare Mentioning Huo Xiaoran's name in front of Huo Xiaojin, I always feel that it will hurt Huo Xiaojin's heart!

haven't seen you for a long time

Until nightfall, Huo Xiaoran appeared on time, and I handed him the notebook I had taken notes on. After he read it, he gave me a rare compliment: "Not bad! It seems you don't have to be so stupid."

In response to this sentence, I could only roll my eyes in reply and asked angrily: "If Liu Mei gives up, it won't be a few days!" I can imagine that once Liu Mei goes along with Yunli's wishes, she will How anxious she was, she definitely hoped that Liu Mei would go to court the next day.

"Fortunately, Liu Mei was injured a few days ago, and I'm afraid she will have to wait a few days before going to court." He said.

I nodded. Huo Xiaojin told her about Liu Mei's injury when she came back.

"Then what shall we do tonight?" I'm not used to having to sleep at night, and when I think of Yunli's appearance, I can't fall asleep. Time is really tight for us.

Huo Xiaoran put the notebook I used to record on the table, looked at the moonlight and said, "Go meet Mrs. Wang!"

When I heard this, I was frightened. I didn't expect Huo Xiaoran to plan to go to Mrs. Wang so soon. That fake fishy face makes me feel very uncomfortable!

After entrusting the sun to Zuo Qing, Huo Xiaoran and I left home. I originally wanted to ask Huo Xiaojin to come with us, but seeing that he rarely slept so well, I couldn't bear it anymore. Zuo Qing told me that as of now, I After leaving home, Huo Xiaojin didn't sleep well, and my heart became heavy.

"Are we going to Huo's house to find Mrs. Wang?" I asked.

I remember that at that time, Mrs. Wang said that although there were many servants in the house. But she was the only one living at home.

Huo Xiaoran didn't respond to my words, but just gave me an address. I looked at him curiously and asked, "Is this where we are going?" Didn't we say we were going to see Mrs. Wang

At Huo Xiaoran's urging. I took a taxi, told me the address Huo Xiaoran gave me, and then started to wait anxiously.

The place is actually not far away, just on the edge of the city center. How should I say, when I got off the car, I was really shocked. I used to pass by this place often, but I never noticed that there was such a shantytown. .

"Where is this?" I asked.

Huo Xiaoran, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally answered after I asked for the third time: "Her son, I remember, lives nearby."

Walking in this small alley with no street lights, fortunately Huo Xiaoran was by my side. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to walk in. I couldn't see my fingers, and I couldn't even see my feet clearly. I stepped in puddles several times. Fortunately, the water is not very deep.

The wind around me shouldn't be so cold. I don't know if it was because there was no light. When it blew past me, I felt that the wind was much darker.

Huo Xiaoran took me turning left and right in this small alley for a while. When I stopped, there was an old-looking house built with wood and bricks in front of me. It was still a two-story building. At the entrance to the stairs, a dim Angelica lamp was swaying in the wind.

"Let's go up!" Huo Xiaoran said.

I looked around. It was very quiet. People here seemed to have gone to bed very early. When I followed Huo Xiaoran up the stairs, I realized that even the stairs in this house were made of wood. When you step on it, it will make a squeaking sound every time you take a step. This sound can make people feel a little scared when they hear it at night.

I really wish I could have the legendary Qing Gong or something like that, so I don’t have to step on this terrible staircase anymore. After finally getting to the second floor, Huo Xiaoran pointed to the end: “I don’t know if there is any room left. Here it is.”

I really wanted to strangle him to death. Since he didn't even know if the person he was looking for lived here, he brought me here. Isn't it funny to me

I pouted, I’m here anyway, I have to at least take a look before I leave! I was about to blame Huo Xiaoran, but when I saw the faint and rare sadness on his face, I swallowed everything I wanted to say.

The house here is very old-fashioned, with a wooden door and a small window next to the door, but there are still curtains hanging inside, but the curtains look more like they were made from torn sheets.

I was about to confirm with Huo Xiaoran whether it was here, but before I could speak in a hurry, the sound of someone talking came from the room.

"Son! Do you miss your mother? Mom misses you. Mom, let me tell you yesterday's story. Don't just listen. Wake up quickly!"

Isn't this the voice of Mrs. Wang? My eyes widened. Although the voice was very quiet, because the surroundings were so quiet, I was sure I couldn't hear it wrong!

Then the voice of her telling stories came from the room, and I stood there, not knowing how to react. Such a scene is something I have never thought of.

It wasn't until Huo Xiaoran made a confused sound that I came back to my senses. I didn't hear the few words he whispered clearly, but he asked me to knock on the door and come in!

Although I felt a little uneasy, I still followed his instructions and knocked on the wooden door.

Sister-in-law Wang was obviously in a panic inside. I heard the stool being knocked to the ground several times. After a while, Sister-in-law Wang’s timid voice came: “Who, who is it!”

I didn't answer and knocked on the door again. In the end, Mrs. Wang came over, but it could be heard that she stood on the other side of the door for a long time, asking who it was several times.

I waited outside the door until she slowly opened the door, covering her mouth in horror and her eyes widening like bells.

"Long time no see!" I thought about it for a while before saying it. I didn't want to say hello or anything like that when I came closer.
