The results were disappointing…
There were only a few things in the old little box.
An old-fashioned razor and a flashlight were all used by Uncle Jing during his lifetime.
There is also an old mobile phone, which is the oldest model, equivalent to an elderly phone, and can no longer be turned on.
Huo Mian secretly took out her phone and put it in her bag. If she took out the phone chip, she would call a professional expert.
Maybe you'll find out who Uncle Jing was interacting with before and after his accident seven years ago, right
There was also half a pack of unfinished cigarettes, which was an old brand.
The kind that cost five yuan a pack, with a lighter next to it.
It seems that my mother still misses Uncle Jing very much, so she kept these.
At the bottom is a book that Uncle Jing often reads, which is ridiculous.
It’s not a classical clan, nor is it a more enjoyable martial arts novel.
It's a fortune-telling book, the kind that doesn't ask anyone for anything.
Huo Mian opened it and looked at it. There were bone-weighing fortune-telling, iron plate divine fortune-telling, and the fortune of the twelve zodiac animals.
These have always been popular in the countryside because most country people believe in these so-called horoscopes.
Huo Mian remembered that Uncle Jing used to like to read it. Sometimes when he went out, he couldn't wait to read the almanac before going out.
I thought there wouldn't be any clues in this kind of book, but by accident, Huo Mian opened the book for the month of her birth.
On the perpetual calendar, on September 18, 1992, someone drew a circle with an oil pen and closed it.
There's nothing strange about this. After all, it's Huo Mian's birthday, so it's normal for Uncle Jing to mark it for her.
But the strangest thing is that in the bottom margin of the book, there are three words written in black with a ballpoint pen.
regretful
Only the three words "I regret" were written in a rather sloppy handwriting. At first glance, it was written by Uncle Jing.
When the relics were being sorted out, no one went through them carefully, so they were never discovered.
Now it seems that what does Uncle Jing mean by regret? Is it because you regretted bringing back Yang Meirong's child when you knew she was not? Or is there another secret
After Huo Mian checked this, she had more questions...
"The milk is ready, Xiaomian."
Huo Mian heard the sound and immediately closed the small box.
"Thank you, Mom." She took the milk and drank it slowly.
Yang Meirong glanced at Jingde's relics with sad eyes...
"This guy didn't have a blessed life. In the past, life was hard, and he supported our whole family by himself. Now that life is better, he is gone... It's really ironic." Yang Meirong sighed.
"Mom... hasn't Uncle Jing had any savings these years?"
"No way. He is just a driver and can support his family. Before the accident, he told me that he wanted to do something in partnership with someone, but then something happened... In the final analysis, he just doesn't have that kind of wealth."
Huo Mian lowered his head and said nothing. She remembered that Huo Siqian seemed to have said that Huo Zhenghai had given Jingde 200,000 yuan.
It seems that Jingde never took out that money and never gave it to his mother.
Therefore, she also suspected that the flow of the money was related to her life experience.
Uncle Jing seems to have been in contact with someone behind his mother's back...
She stayed at her mother's house until very late, and Qin Chu came to pick her up before she left.
Regarding the mobile phone and the relics, Huo Mian did not mention it to Qin Chu.
Because she heard that Qin Chu had been investigating this matter during the phone call between Qin Chu and Rick.
But this thing is very strange, people keep disappearing all the time...
So Huo Mian doesn't want Qin Chu to take risks because of her...
"Wife, what are you thinking about?" Qin Chu looked at her and asked gently.
"It's okay... I just miss Zhixin a little bit." Huo Mian changed the subject.
"Didn't Zhixin send you a WeChat message? He has settled there and everything is fine."
"Yes, you told me." Huo Mian nodded.
The couple returned home and went to bed early the next day at noon.
Huo Mian took advantage of her lunch break to go to the city bureau to find Jiang Xiaowei.
Although Jiang Xiaowei is pregnant, she is not pretentious and continues to work in the city bureau.
Wei Liao was also in the group during the day, and the couple were busy with their own affairs.
Seeing Huo Mian, Jiang Xiaowei was very happy and took her hand. "It's such a tacit understanding. I was just thinking of having lunch with you. Come on, we have Cantonese food downstairs, which is very authentic."
Without waiting for Huo Mian to say anything, Jiang Xiaowei dragged Huo Mian all the way to the restaurant downstairs.
"Xiaowei, I came to you today to ask for your help."
