Qu Chao on the side heard that his game console was lost, and cried sadly. Seeing Qu Chao crying, Hua Rong was even more sad, and he also sobbed softly on the side.
At this time, Hua Rong's family members also rushed over. When they heard that Hua Rong had lost Qu Chao's game console, they stood aside in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.
The game console was given by a relative in the city. Firstly, he didn’t know the price. Secondly, he couldn’t buy it in nearby towns. Thirdly, the conditions of the Huarong family were not good, so Qu Zhong didn’t mention the matter of compensation and comforted the two. After a while, they took Qu Chao home.
Qu Chao didn't have a game console, and he didn't think about food and drinks. He wiped his tears every day. The old lady felt so distressed that she personally called her nephew in the city and asked him to help buy another game console and send it to him.
My cousin in the city was doing a good business and he was generous. He didn't need the old lady to pay for it, so he quickly bought a new game console and asked someone to bring it back.
On this day, Qu Zhong went to town to pick up the game console that his cousin had brought over. When he was about to go home, he unexpectedly saw Hua Rong in a canteen in the town.
Because the distance was relatively far, Huarong did not notice Qu Zhong, but Qu Zhong clearly saw that Huarong bought two batteries in the canteen.
Qu Zhong couldn't help but feel a little strange. Batteries were available in the village's canteen. Why did Hua Rong come all the way to town to buy them
Looking at the back of Hua Rong leaving quickly, Qu Zhong was curious for some reason, so he followed Hua Rong from a distance.
At that time, the roads between villages and towns were still loess roads, which were very narrow and rugged. There were dense woods on both sides of the road, so Hua Rong did not notice Qu Zhong following him.
Qu Zhong followed Hua Rong back to the village, cursing himself that it was incomprehensible. The child just bought two batteries in the town, maybe just to stroll around the town. He, a grown man, was suspicious. What's going on with following him
Just as Qu Zhong was about to take two quick steps to catch up with Hua Rong, Hua Rong suddenly turned around and walked into the woods on the side.
This place is still 3 kilometers away from the village. Why did Hua Rong turn to the woods
Could it be that he was in a hurry and wanted to go to the toilet
Qu Zhong stopped and stood there waiting for a long time, but Hua Rong never came out of the woods.
Could this kid have done something stupid again
Qu Zhong quickly took two steps, intending to enter the forest to look for Hua Rong.
As soon as he reached the roadside where Huarong entered the forest, Qu Zhong's figure instantly froze on the spot.
He heard a familiar sound of game console music.
Qu Zhong slowly took two steps forward and saw Hua Rong sitting on a tree trunk not far away in the forest, his back facing Qu Zhong's direction, holding a blue Tetris game console in his hand. Playing fascinated.
Two shriveled discarded batteries were thrown on the ground next to Hua Rong's buttocks. They were the same black and yellow batteries that Qu Zhong's cousin had brought from the city before. There was no such brand in the village or town.
Qu Zhong froze on the spot, unable to believe his eyes.
No matter what, he could not connect Hua Rong, who was secretly playing a game console in the woods, with the child who was pale and trembling because of the cold water in the river a few days ago.
Everything that happened in the past few days was actually a play directed and performed by this child who was less than five years old
The purpose is to get Qu Chao's game console into his own hands
A chill rose in Qu Zhong's heart.
Glancing at the unopened new game console in his hand, Qu Zhong stood there and hesitated for a long time, but finally did not step forward to expose Hua Rong.
After returning home, Qu Zhong gave the new game console to his son Qu Chao. He discovered the secret about Huarong on the way, but he never told anyone about it.
Later, Hua Rong's father passed away, and Keyi, a co-worker at the paper mill, planned to marry Hua Rong's mother. Qu Zhong had secretly talked to Keyi about Hua Rong, saying that the child had a ruthlessness in doing things that would not give up until the goal was achieved. Like a little wolf cub.
Keyi did not understand the implication of Qu Zhong's words. He said that he liked Hua Rong, a smart and sensible child. After getting married, he hoped to take the child to change his surname while he was still young. From then on, he would regard him as his own son and would no longer treat him as his own son. Another life.
At that time, Keyi was determined to marry Hua Rong's mother. Countless seniors in the factory tried to persuade Keyi to no avail, so Qu Zhong naturally couldn't say anything more.
Five years later, Koron's mother passed away. Hearing that Keyi did not plan to remarry and wanted to raise Korong alone, Qu Zhong could no longer bear it and told Keyi about the game console five years ago. .
Unexpectedly, Keyi laughed after hearing this: "Brother, thank you for your childishness towards me, but you don't have to worry about me. After all, Kerong was still young at that time and didn't understand the principles of life. Now he is ten years old. , went to school, and understood a lot of truth.
This child has a hard life. He lost his biological father when he was five years old, and now he has lost his biological mother. Now he only has me as his stepfather. If I don't support him, how do you want him to live
Even if he is an ignorant white-eyed wolf, the most he can do is not support me in my old age. Brother, I have hands and feet, how can I still be afraid of starving to death? "
Qu Zhong tried to persuade him a few more times, but when he saw that Keyi still insisted on raising Korong, he had no choice but to sigh and say no more.
The matter of the game console was once again suppressed by Qu Zhong, and he never told anyone about it for more than 20 years.
After listening to Qu Zhong's story, Wu Liang rubbed his head vigorously, and things seemed to become more complicated.
Seeing that Wu Liang and Lu Yun were silent, the security guard Qu Zhong said in a deep voice: "What? You still don't believe it? What I said before about seeing an old man at the age of three is not nonsense. He Korong is indeed a wolf cub.
After Koron went to graduate school, the old boy Keyi returned to the factory and worked as a security guard with my partner for nine years. The number of times Koron took the initiative to see him can be counted on one hand.
Every time Koron came back to see him, he just brought him a few bottles of pretty good wine, and he could happily brag to me for a year.
But I know very well that every time Korong leaves, the old boy Keyi will always give Korong the 10,000 yuan of savings he has saved as a security guard and let him take it away.
My old brother loves to drink, but after knowing him for so many years, he has never been willing to buy good wine to drink. He has been drinking two yuan and a half of loose wine. The money he saves always says that he will save it for Koron's wedding.
Koron got married three years ago, but he was still reluctant to buy good wine. I asked him what the use of saving money this time was, and he said that the money he saved should be reserved to buy sweets for his future grandchildren... "
Speaking of this, Qu Zhong's tone was a bit sad: "That's all I know. In short, Keyi will never run away from home because of such a trivial matter as a quarrel with his daughter-in-law.
If he disappeared, he must have been murdered! And he definitely couldn't have been beaten to death in an upright manner, he must have been poisoned by someone close to him in some way! "
