What the rural people are most afraid of is seeing the police. When the police come to the door, there is no one who is not afraid. After all, in their impression, if the police come to the door, something has happened. It's been a long time at home, and the children have long been gone. Now that the police have come to the door, can you not panic
At this moment, her wrinkled face was full of worry and panic, and her voice was trembling.
"Grandma, don't be afraid. Either someone in your family committed a crime, or our police came here to investigate a case. Don't worry too much."
Meng Chao hurriedly said that he was very approachable, and he was the one who was in contact with the people most of the time. Opening his mouth like this gradually made Mrs. Chen feel relieved, but she was still a little worried.
"The police comrades, what case are you here to investigate? Is it related to our village?"
This is the first time Mrs. Chen has seen the police come to her door. Although she can't tell whether the police officer ID presented by the other party is real or not, she still believes it when she sees these two men with upright faces. their words.
"Chen Cai is your grandson, right?"
Thinking that people in Chenjia Village called Wang Cai Chen Cai, Meng Chao remembered something and asked.
Mrs. Chen said with hesitant eyes when the topic was brought up.
"Yes! Ah Cai is my grandson. My daughter Chen Guixiang recruited a son-in-law called Wang Xifu. At that time, my child's father and I had only one daughter. I didn't want my daughter to marry outside. I thought it was too chaotic outside. I'm afraid that the child will suffer, but the child's father wants to let our old Chen family stay rooted. My daughter's first son is A Cai. He has the same surname as my mother, and now he lives with me... "
When mentioning the past, Mrs. Chen's voice was a bit somber, and she quickly picked up the tea on the table after she finished speaking.
"Comrade police, drink tea first, drink tea!"
There was no way to refuse Mrs. Chen, Meng Chao and An Zi could only sit down and drink tea, Meng Chao asked casually.
"Then are you taking Ah Cai by yourself now? Why don't you live with your daughter and son-in-law?"
As for the visiting son-in-law, it was no problem to live in someone else's house earlier, but now only Mrs. Chen is left alone, something must have happened...
Mrs. Chen really felt a little more uncomfortable in the coming year, or it should be said that she was sad.
"Hey~ Don't mention it, Comrade Police Officer. In the early years, my husband and I wanted to get our daughter to find a son-in-law, so we found a lot of people to introduce to my daughter, but my daughter just didn't like it. Finally, I fell in love with that Wang Xifu, Wang Xifu has six brothers in his family, and the family is poor. My husband and I don’t want to, but my daughter is crying and wants to marry him. Later, we couldn’t survive our daughter, so we could only agree to let two people get married. What happened? The marriage was completed, and they gave birth to a son in the first year, but who would have thought that they were stupid, and then they insisted that there was a problem with the land in the village, and that if they wanted to live in the city, my husband and I would pay for it. The money bought them a house in the city, who knows that these two people will never come back... "
Speaking of these sad things, Mrs. Chen had tears in her eyes, and this pitiful appearance made An Zi's eyes red too. Although he was tall and tall, he was full of emotions.
"My husband and I are raising Ah Cai. I think this child is my grandson. Although he can't speak, he is also very well-behaved. My daughter and son-in-law didn't come back until my husband left six years ago. , held my man's funeral, and never came back after that, and now I am dependent on this poor child, Ah Cai... "
In the past, they were all from the village. Even if Mrs. Chen felt uncomfortable, she couldn't say that she lost face in front of the villagers. After all, she would live in the village in the future, but now she saw two strange young children. Under the caring eyes of the two, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but tell all this.
Anyway, An Zi was about to cry too, and even handed over toilet paper.
"Grandma, don't cry, it's their fault, they have no conscience!"
An Zi was very angry, and his heart was very blocked at the moment. His family was a martyr's family. His father died in the line of duty in the early years. Later, he grew up with his mother. His mother always opposed An Zi's becoming a policeman, but An Zi wanted to inherit his father's behest. However, she finally became a policeman. Although she was only a small policeman, she didn't need to make any major cases, but just investigated some things, which made An Zima very satisfied. She didn't want her son to be hurt.
Therefore, An Zi knew that his father was gone since he was a child, and he had to listen to his mother and be filial to his mother. It seemed that when he heard such unfilial things, he looked down on the other party from the bottom of his heart.
Meng Chao also listened thoughtfully and summed up some news.
First, Chen Guixiang and Wang Xifu got married. Wang Xifu was married. The price of marriage is that the first child born is Chen Guixiang’s family name is Chen. Wang Xifu’s family is poor, so they married here after they got married, because the information found out now is In Chenjia Village.
Second, the first child of Chen Guixiang and Wang Xifu, that is, Wang Cai, is called Wang Cai on the birth certificate and household registration book, but in Chenjia Village, it is called Chen Cai, and because he was stupid since he was a child, he was handed over to Chen Guixiang's family. parental upbringing.
Three, Chen Guixiang and Wang Xifu bought a house in the city and did not come back several times. The last time they came back was when Mr. Chen passed away, and they ignored this son. He still stayed with Mrs. Chen at the age of nineteen. around.
"Grandma, have you and your husband been raising Ah Cai all this time? Did your daughter and son-in-law give you child support? Is Ah Cai really stupid? Is there a certificate from the hospital?"
It was still unbelievable that all of this was coherent, so Meng Chao continued to ask a few questions.
Mrs. Chen's thinking had long been misled by Meng Chao, so she replied without hesitation.
"Of course! My husband and I have been taking the child since a month. Later, when he was over a year old, he couldn't call out. We realized something was wrong. We took it to a big hospital for a look. The doctor said it was unresponsive. What, let us observe again, but later the child was three or four years old and didn't call anyone. We went to some hospitals, and the doctor said that the child is called autism. We don't know what autism is, but the doctor I said it can't be cured... As for the child support, my daughter doesn't like Ah Cai, and despises him for being stupid, of course she never paid it, but I still have some coffin books with my husband, so I can support Ah Cai."
Thinking of how hard it was for her daughter and son-in-law to come back after her man passed away, in addition to attending the funeral, she actually forced herself to teach the man's legacy, but if she didn't have any money in her hand, what would Ah Cai do in the future? Before her husband passed away, he specially gave the family savings book to Mrs. Chen. Although the money on it was not much, that is, less than 100,000 yuan, it would be no problem to use it to support such a sick child.
Mrs. Chen even thought that if she could live for a day, if she really couldn't live any longer, she would take Ah Cai away by herself, and then die, so as to save Ah Cai from being bullied.
"Is that so, did the hospital issue a medical certificate at that time? Did you go to the hospital for further investigations?"
Meng Chao continued to ask, autism, from a medical point of view, is indeed a very serious disease. Any family with such a disease will have a great impact, let alone such a family
In fact, at the earliest time, autism was also called childhood autism. This is a type or subtype of generalized developmental Zhang An, which is more common in males. , interpersonal communication barriers, narrow interests and behaviors, etc., and three-quarters of the patients have obvious mental retardation. good ability.
As a policeman, what have you never seen? Meng Chao saw many strange people and strange things.
"Why haven't I been there! Before the child was ten years old, my husband and I went to the big hospital almost every year, but the doctor in the big hospital also said, there is no way, autism can't be cured, it's mental illness, We posted a lot of money, but in the end we could only take the child home to raise him. Fortunately, my family Ah Cai is well-behaved. Although he doesn't like to talk, he is quiet. He always sits there alone and goes to the toilet. Ah, you don’t have to worry about eating, and he can also blow leaves! Do you know? Just put the leaves in your mouth, and you can blow out nice tunes. I’ve never heard of that kind, but it’s so good... "
As an elder, he is always proud of the children he has brought up, and Mrs. Chen is no exception. Even if she knows that her own Cai has mental problems, every time she hears her own Cai playing music, Mrs. Chen is still Can't be happy, she feels that her child is not stupid at all, she just doesn't like to talk...
"Really? Then he is really powerful, grandma, to tell you the truth, this time I came to visit, and I also want to meet Ah Cai, is that okay?"
Mrs. Chen completely forgot that she asked the police what they were doing before, and now when she heard the police say that she wanted to meet Ah Cai, she was a little happy, as if the baby she had raised for many years finally had a chance to show it to everyone .
"Of course, Ah Cai is in his room right now. Ah Cai is a well-behaved child. He will do things at any time these years. His things must be laid out for him. You guys came just in time, it’s almost four o’clock now? He’ll blow the leaves at four o’clock, it sounds so good!”
He hurriedly dragged the two policemen to his grandson's room. Mrs. Chen was the closest person to Ah Cai these years, so she knew Ah Cai's life very well. Ah Cai would definitely wake up at 5:30 every morning. I have to eat. After eating, I will continue to be in a daze in the room. I will go to the bathroom at ten o'clock, and continue to eat on time at twelve o'clock at noon. It is time to go to the bathroom at one o'clock. Sometimes I will take out the leaves of the tree and play the tune, about 20 minutes...
Anyway, this kind of life has been lived for many years, Mrs. Chen has long been used to it.
Meng Chao and An Zi were brought into the house by Mrs. Chen, and they immediately saw the boy sitting there! That's right! It's a boy!
Ah Cai was wearing a black shirt, which made his skin fair and fair. His hair was very long, tied behind Mrs. Chen's head, and it was thinned into a big braid. It looked dark and straight. His face was very small, almost He grew up so big, and he was so small. Sitting there, he looked almost like a fifteen-year-old child. Just by looking at it, Meng Chao felt that the other person must be 1.7 meters tall, and he would not be taller...
The most important thing is his face, a very obvious oval face, a tall nose bridge that is very delicate, and a mouth that is too thin. When you look at his eyes, you can tell at a glance that he is different from ordinary people. different.
The pupils of his eyes are light brown, but there is no emotion at this time. Even if two strangers came to him, he sat there, the pupils did not fluctuate at all, as if he couldn't see at all. The person in front of him was normal. He sat there, very well-behaved, with a very straight posture, and then put his hands flat on his knees like this, which made Meng Chao see his fingers.
These hands are not at all like the hands of a rural child. These hands are as long as jade. They are so beautiful that they can be used for filming TV dramas. Moreover, the nails have been manicured. It is enough to see that Mrs. Chen is also taking good care of this child. Otherwise, a child with mental problems would not be so clean under such a family.
"Is...is he nineteen years old?" An Zi was taken aback. He was a big man, almost 1.9 meters tall. It was really uncomfortable to just look down at the boy sitting on the bed. Strange, why does a nineteen-year-old look so weak
"Yes, my family Ah Cai is nineteen years old, but he looks about fifteen years old. He was a very picky eater when he was a child. He didn't eat anything. My husband and I couldn't help it. After looking for a lot of doctors, I found out about this. The child is not only autistic, but also has some cleanliness. He has to clean everything before eating. Later, I learned a lot of dishes and let him drink milk. He didn’t grow very tall. It was me and my man who misunderstood he... ”
When Mrs. Chen looked at Ah Cai, her eyes were full of love. She had raised her as a grandson all these years. Even if the child was a fool, after her husband passed away, Mrs. Chen almost wanted to go with her husband. It's not that she's worried that her grandson will be left unattended, and she won't be living a more energetic life like she is now.
"...I see, I'm sorry." An Zi scratched his head in embarrassment, feeling that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and secretly looked at his brother Meng.
"Then did he ever go to school?" Meng Chao took out his mobile phone from his pocket, thinking that he still needed someone to come, take blood, and take pictures...
"No, of course this child's tuition is not worrying, but who made this child sick, and he didn't say a word. I raised him all these years, and he didn't say a word. I was afraid that he would be bullied at school. , I didn’t dare to let him go to school, even after this, I don’t know what to do…” Sighing, Mrs. Chen couldn’t help it. She couldn’t bear to let her child be bullied, but now she regrets that her child has never been exposed to society. If so, what can I do next...
Hearing this, Meng Chao was not very surprised. He took out his phone and asked.
"Can I take a picture?"
Mrs. Chen realized something was wrong right now, but the other party was a policeman, so Mrs. Chen could only agree to let the photo be taken.
Meng Chao took a lot of photos of 'A Cai' in front of him with his mobile phone, very high-definition, and then sent them directly to the bureau, but then he heard the beeping sound of the mobile phone.
It turned out that it was a custom-made alarm clock, the alarm clock at four o'clock, and now it rang.
Meng Chao turned off the alarm, but he never thought that Ah Cai, who was sitting there, stood up from the bed. He walked forward, as if he couldn't see Meng Chao in front of him, and Meng Chao hurriedly moved aside in fright. Seeing Ah Cai walk to the window, the window was opened by Mrs. Chen, at this moment a meter of sunlight shone on Ah Cai's face, making his already fair skin look even more rosy. A little more popular.
He stretched out his hand and touched the table facing the window. Meng Chao saw a new leaf on it at a glance, and it was a kind of village leaf that had been processed. It couldn't be called a name, but this leaf had been cleaned and was very clean. , seems to have been washed.
Mrs. Chen raised her hand and made a silent gesture. Both Meng Chao and An Zi fell silent, watching the boy by the window quietly.
A Cai stood there, pinching a leaf with her beautiful hands, and put it to her lips. After a while, the leaf made a dancing and melodious music, with a bit of cheerfulness and mischievousness, mixed with the sound of cicadas outside the window, It suddenly had a special charm, and Meng Chao who was standing there suddenly thought of many things.
He thought of his own childhood, when he was the most skinny kid in the community, he always took a group of friends out for swimming in summer, and it was the same at that time, there was a small pool outside their community, and there were cicadas in summer Hearing sound, the small pool is only less than one meter high, adding up to a size of more than ten square meters, enough for a few children to play in it, they happily splashed water, and then had a water fight...
What a happy time it was... All this is so nostalgic.
What kind of music can a leaf construct? When you listen carefully, you will know that any music has a soul. Mrs. Chen also has a bit of nostalgia on her face. She also thinks of her youth, such summers, such For myself, and back then, everything was so beautiful...
This is an unknown ditty, and I don't know how long it has been playing. After stopping, Meng Chao looked at the young man standing there with a sense of loss. He wanted to say something, but he felt that he didn't know why. After the joy of childhood, I felt a kind of discomfort inexplicably.
An Zi doesn't understand music either, but music has never been classified into professional or non-professional, good music, anyone can appreciate it, An Zi looked at Ah Cai with bright eyes, stretched out his hand and secretly pulled his captain, and then Lowered his voice.
"Captain, is this a genius? Isn't it said in TV dramas that many autistic patients are geniuses?"
The so-called TV series are some American dramas that An Zi watches. After all, if such autistic patients are in the domestic environment, they will generally disappear from the public, or be regarded as lunatics...
Meng Chao didn't speak. The young man standing there continued to play the new piece. Meng Chao directly turned on the video on his cell phone and recorded the young man playing in the video. He didn't know why he did this, but he did it instinctively.
This time, the leaves were played, but the music played had a somewhat bleak aesthetic feeling, as if it was appealing for something, trying to save something, amidst the chirping cicadas, this sound seemed to be a reminder of summer. The last nostalgia and retention made people feel inexplicably bitter after listening to it.
For the first time, Meng Chao and An Zi felt that 20 minutes was too little time because they only heard three pieces of music, and the 20 minutes passed. When the time reached 4:20, the leaf was placed on the table again by the boy. On the window sill, he sat on the bed again.
His eyes were still without any emotion, as if he wasn't the one who played the beautiful music just now, as if the world had nothing to do with him for a split second.
It was also the first time for Meng Chao to see this kind of autistic patient, and he was also an autistic patient who might have some geniuses, so it felt amazing.
"He would stay here for twenty minutes every day, whether it was thunder or rain, or wind or snow, even in winter, you know, we are all rural people, and we have lived a good life these years. The air conditioner is installed, and every time I turn it on for this child, even though he doesn’t say anything, in the eyes of my wife, he is a precious child, even if he never calls me, I still love him.”
As Mrs. Chen said, she went to close the window to isolate the hot sunlight outside. At this moment, Meng Chao realized that the air conditioner was turned on in this room, but it was not very low. Twenty-six degrees, let me sit here The people in the house just had a little bit of coolness, but when they were drinking water outside, there was no air conditioner.
It seems that the Chen family couple really dotes on this child.
Now that he had finished watching the people, Meng Chao had to explain the matter clearly. After going outside with Mrs. Chen, he finally explained his reason for coming.
"Nineteen years ago, an incident happened in the Ren'ai Hospital where your daughter gave birth. A pregnant woman's child was replaced in the Ren'ai Hospital. It was not discovered until a few days ago that the son was not their own son at all. Our police station I have received the investigation of this case, and I am investigating the pregnant woman and child who were born on October 12, 2001 19 years ago. Sorry, I took the liberty to visit today just to see this child, and... the police should be there before dark Someone is going to come and take a blood sample from this kid."
Meng Chao tried hard to explain this matter clearly, hoping that Mrs. Chen in front of him would understand, but Mrs. Chen came to her senses after a while.
"You... you mean Ah Cai is not my child?"
Mrs. Chen couldn't believe her eyes, and she didn't know where to put her hands. Instead of surprise, she was full of nervousness.
"Comrade policeman, how did this happen? When my daughter gave birth, I was going to accompany her in the bed, but at that time I fell to the ground and broke my leg, and I was raising it at home. It was Wang Xifu's mother who accompanied my daughter to give birth. I don't know anything about it, but how could Ah Cai be someone else's child? Ah Cai is my grandson!"
She tried her best to explain that she actually didn't want her grandson to be taken away, even if her grandson was autistic, but the more because of this autism, the more she thought about it, in case Ah Cai didn't belong to her family, He was taken away, what should the family do if they treat him badly
"Grandma, please calm down about this matter. We are here to do an investigation this time. It does not mean that Ah Cai is not a child of your family. In addition to your family, we have also investigated many other families. There are thirty What about multi-family, and don't worry, the families looking for children are in good condition, if... I mean, if Ah Cai is really their child, they will definitely treat Ah Cai well."
Meng Chao has always had his own sensitive cells in the case, which is equivalent to a woman's sixth sense. If he was just skeptical before, but now, after hearing the music like that, he really is almost 100% sure. Determine the identity of the other party.
You know, Chu Yunhui and her husband are an excellent violinist in the country, and the other is an excellent pianist. The children born of such two people must have a different talent in music, just like It's Ah Cai, even if he has autism now, but giving him a leaf can make him play beautiful and moving music, isn't that enough to explain the problem
"... No, Ah Cai will not be someone else's child, how could it be?"
Mrs. Chen still shook her head. She and her husband spent the first half of their lives on their daughter. Later, when their daughter got married at the age of 20, Mrs. Chen and her husband helped raise the child after their daughter gave birth, and spent the rest of their lives on Ah Cai. , Mrs. Chen hardly dared to think about how unacceptable she would be if her grandson wasn't her own...
"We will investigate this matter. Don't worry, grandma, we will definitely investigate the truth."
Holding the old man's hand, he felt that Mrs. Chen's hands were trembling. Meng Chao felt uncomfortable, because he had seen too many things through these things. If Ah Cai's identity was really problematic, then Mrs. Chen's daughter and son-in-law There must be problems. Now this case is just based on the case of a lost baby. If there is more evidence by then, the case may become a criminal case, and it will start from ten years before being imprisoned...
I don't know if the old man can accept it.
But... that is Chu Yunhui's own son! A woman who is a leader in the central government and her military badge is already a colonel! It is impossible for the country to be sorry to its own soldiers, and it will definitely help Chu Yunhui find the child back! This case will come to light sooner or later.
"Then, comrades in the police, you should investigate carefully. I believe that my family's Cai is my child..."
Mrs. Chen still said the same thing, Meng Chao had no choice but to stay and chat with Mrs. Chen. In fact, they were all talking about Ah Cai. An Zi had already notified someone to come to draw blood. After all, the DNA can be compared after the blood is drawn. The clearest evidence for the police to find someone is not a photo or anything else, but a DNA test.
Only then did Meng Chao, who was chatting with Mrs. Chen, realize how complicated and troublesome it is to raise an autistic patient.
An autistic person is equivalent to having his own independent world. He has his own set of rules. Mrs. Chen has served Ah Cai for many years and has already figured out these rules. On the contrary, Meng Chao listened to these rules and felt that Mrs. Chen could It is not easy to persist for so many years.
Needless to say, getting up and eating, these are all habits, and there are also habits formed over the years. For example, every time Ah Cai walks, he always walks with his left foot first, never his right foot first, and only uses his left hand when eating. Chopsticks hold spoons, and the right hand never touches anything about eating.
When Ah Cai eats, he always chews and eats slowly. The fruit must be cut and inserted with a fork. The most important thing is that it must be arranged neatly. If it is not neat, he will not eat it.
There are also some trivial things in life, such as clothes that must be folded neatly when they are taken off at night, shoes must also be neat, and the display in the room must also be symmetrical, and things that alone destroy the beauty are not allowed to exist...
An Zi was at a loss when he heard this, only thinking that this is autism? How can things be like this
On the contrary, Meng Chao knew that these so-called habits could not be formed overnight. After all, Mrs. Chen really cared about her grandson, so she had mastered the logic of her grandson's behavior after so many years.
This is the behavioral logic of the patient. Ordinary people seem troublesome, but in fact it is like a world of its own. If this behavioral logic is broken, then the child will have some mental problems, that is, being stimulated some type of.
Two hours later, before it was dark, the blood-drawing colleagues from the police station came over, and they happened to meet Ah Cai for dinner.
Six o'clock in the evening is Ah Cai's regular meal time. There are eight small plates on the table, neatly displayed, and the meals inside are neatly displayed, no more, no less. He sat there, Eating alone is like a robot.
On the way, the colleagues in the police station already knew about this matter, and they were also a little curious. After the other party finished eating, they found that the other party returned to the room and sat up.
"Comrade policeman, you can draw blood now, he won't move."
Mrs. Chen directly arranged for the blood to be drawn. She knew her grandson's habits, sitting there after eating, he would not move even if anyone touched him.
"Is this okay?" This colleague is from the forensic department and has a doctor's qualification certificate, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come here to draw blood. In the end, he tentatively took Ah Cai's hand, but he didn't even move, and didn't even look at her. glance.
After the disinfection, she began to draw blood. It was very fast from the beginning to the end. In less than five minutes, Ah Cai was sitting there without any movement at all. what's up...
After the blood was drawn, the policeman who took the blood took a sneak look at the child, and sighed in his heart, the child was quite good-looking, with extremely beautiful hands, the kind that were more slender and fair than girls' hands, and could almost It's a pity that I'm in such a family and have such a disease...
The matter seemed to come to an end just like that. Meng Chao politely declined Mrs. Chen's request to invite them to dinner, and then took them away, leaving behind a lonely old man and a grandson who never spoke.
Mrs. Chen always prepared meals for her grandson first, and then made them for herself, so she went to eat by herself at the moment, while Ah Cai, who was sitting in the room, was Xiao Qingrong, still expressionless, sitting there dumbfounded.
But even if there is no movement in this body, in the study space, Xiao Qingrong is playing the piano, and with the majestic whine of the piano, there are waves crashing under his feet, and with the sound of Xiao Qingrong's piano, they swarm more , swept his whole body into it...
Xiao Qingrong, who was rolled up by the waves, was still sitting there, with ten fingers jumping quickly on the piano, and then the sound of passionate music created a magnificent picture with the beating waves. The sound of the music stopped abruptly, and then the crazy waves stopped, and then on the surface of the deep blue sea, Xiao Qingrong's piano was located in the center, and he sat there, and only then did he open his eyes.
[Crack, clap, clap! Host, you are amazing! Your piano has improved again!]
618 was very flattering, and hurried over to praise him. Xiao Qingrong just sat there, gently stroking the piano, and occasionally pressing a button, making a deep piano sound.
It has been nineteen years since he came to this world, and from the first month since he came to this world, 618 told him what this world was like.
Originally, he was supposed to be a super musician who resounded all over the world and even changed the lives of many people with music! But because of being replaced greedily, and then died of depression due to autism...
For nineteen years, Xiao Qingrong never said a word. He began to get used to such silence, and the turbulent and crazy emotions stirred up in his mind, which made him start to really control the music.
When he entered the learning space of the system for the first time, he found that he could not only play the piano and the violin, but also his skills were very good, but he had no emotions...
But affected by the autism of the current body, those subtle emotions were suddenly transformed into the spirit of music, which made Xiao Qingrong's understanding of music more clear. In the eyes of others, he is sitting there motionless. Autistic patients, but Xiao Qingrong has played music to the extreme during these years in the space.
Today's learning space has already created magnificent scenery with his music, or the surging and crazy sea, or the rising sun in the warmth of spring, or the awe-inspiring wind and snow in winter...
Xiao Qingrong's music finally has emotion.
