"This Saturday." Jiang Chengyi walked straight into the house.
Yesterday, the appointment with Dr. Yu on the phone was in the afternoon. Although he still went to the bureau habitually in the morning, because he was worried that she would not be safe at home alone, he only showed up in the past and came back.
"Saturday?" She looked at him in surprise.
Jiang Chengyi's voice was sarcastic: "Have a few days of rest at home, you don't even have a concept of the day of the week?"
He made up his mind to have a good talk with her. He didn't pay much attention to her bare skin exposed outside the quilt. He walked to the bed, picked up the clothes on the ground, and handed them to her: "Don't catch a cold, put them on quickly."
Seeing that he was unhappy, Lu Yan didn't answer, and looked up at him: "I have to take a shower first."
She needs a bath towel.
Is this supporting him
Jiang Chengyi couldn't hold back his face: "Lu Yan."
His anger hasn't subsided yet.
She looked at him, Wu Fa's eyes, and sat quietly on the bed, just like eight years ago, beautiful to his heart.
It's just that the two of them had first tasted love. When facing him, she was somewhat shy and flustered. He was not allowed to dress for her, let alone follow her into the bathroom.
After confronting for a while, remembering her charming appearance at the time, he was defeated, so he went to the bathroom to get a bath towel and handed it to her: "After washing, I have something to tell you."
Then she wrapped a bath towel, lifted the quilt, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
He sat on the sofa and waited patiently for her. I remember that at that time, he was also standing outside the bathroom like now, listening to her taking a bath, as if there was a feather fluttering in his heart, he couldn't calm down for a moment, and there was only one thought in his mind: how to come again? it is good.
Later, he was satisfied, and he tried many times in just a few days, but it didn't take long for him to be dumped by her.
The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.
The hair dryer rings.
After a while, the door opened and she came out.
He used his shower gel, and when he approached it, there was a faint scent of verbena, which was refreshing and refreshing.
He watched her walking around the room, only to feel that the originally quiet atmosphere was stirred up by her, and he couldn't help but feel hot, knowing that if he stayed any longer, the plan of the conversation was bound to fail, so he pretended not to see her. The well-proportioned white calf under the bath towel suddenly got up: "Get dressed and come out for breakfast."
Lu Yan went back to her room and changed into clean clothes. After thinking about it, she took out a folder in her suitcase and walked to the restaurant.
There was a bowl of porridge on the dining table, which was steaming hot. After sitting down, she took a sip. The fragrant and refreshing porridge slid down her esophagus, and her stomach was immediately wrapped in a warm steam.
He pulled out the chair, sat down beside her, and watched her eat. The iceberg feeling on his body disappeared, but the word 'unhappy' still appeared on his face. Seeing that she was eating deliciously, he couldn't help speaking: "Is it tasty?"
"Delicious." Her heart was as warm as her stomach.
After eating, knowing that he was waiting for her, she opened the file bag by her hand, took out something, and pushed it in front of him.
"Do you know this?"
Jiang Chengyi took it and saw that it was a photocopy with mottled ink. It was a few years old, but the paper was flat and the edges and corners were not worn. It can be seen that the owner has been carefully and properly preserved over the years.
It must have been torn from the notebook. There are jagged marks on the left side of the page, and it is written in large words: "I hate her! I hate her! I will not let her go as a ghost!"
Of course he knew it. In the stack of anonymous letters that Lu Yan sent to the Anshan Branch, the documents attached in the first year included the original of this piece of paper.
He had seen his colleague's investigation record, which read: It matches the handwriting of the client Deng Man.
He knew that the colleague attached great importance to this matter after receiving the report from an anonymous letter. He had called up the surveillance video of Deng Man's accident and watched it repeatedly. However, from the video data, Deng Man did indeed walk to the river and fell into the river that night. , the autopsy report did not detect the residual traces of poisons and hallucinogenic drugs injected by the parties during his lifetime.
Although the content of this note is a bit strange, it is not surprising for the little girl to say anything when she is emotionally unstable. In the end, the colleague came to the conclusion that the possibility of homicide is ruled out.
"This was written by Deng Man two days before the accident." After eight years, when she was narrating, she was able to describe it in a straightforward manner.
He waited for her to speak.
"Before the college entrance examination, Deng Man's mood was already a little wrong. Although I had already noticed it, I had never been able to confirm my guess. Once, Tang Jie saw Deng Man's diary, which said, 'I am destined to not get him ''I can't betray friendship', I felt strange, so I told me, I suspected Deng Man was in a relationship, but I couldn't understand, what kind of relationship should be hidden and not shared with good friends? Later I found out She frequently goes to see you, packs your uniforms for you, and always watches you play basketball in the stands. I guess the person she likes may be you, and because she doesn't want to ruin her friendship with me, she keeps her mouth shut."
Jiang Chengyi endured not to interrupt her.
"After failing in the college entrance examination, she became even more depressed. In order to help her open her heart, we made an appointment to borrow books from the library that day. When I got to school, I accidentally found that she was already in the basketball hall. I met her. He folded your clothes for you and watched you play. He couldn't hold back for a while, and told her: 'I cherish my friendship with you, but I also like Jiang Chengyi.' It implied to her that no matter what she thought, you were mine. Boyfriend, I can't let go. I want her to think about it calmly."
Thinking of the scene at that time, her voice was obviously not as stable as before.
"She quickly understood my suggestion, and her face changed suddenly, as if she had been hit hard, and left the basketball court on the spot. When I found her in the classroom, I saw she put this note I threw it out the window, and after she left, I saw what was on the note, I knew I had hurt her badly, and I wanted to communicate with her, but for the next two days, she refused to answer my call. And then—"
The situation at that time was like a bowl of cold water, even after many years, it still made her feel biting cold. She stopped in embarrassment, and after a while, she spoke again: "And then, I got the news of her suicide."
He heard the bitterness in her throat and became unusually silent.
"At that time, you went to the suburbs to celebrate your grandfather's birthday, but you were not in the city. I got the news and rushed to the hospital as soon as possible, because it happened so suddenly, Deng Man's father was still out of town, and Deng Man's mother lost control of her emotions and dragged her. I went with her to the morgue to identify the body. I saw Deng Man at the time—"
Her face was still calm, but the tears finally got out of control, rolling down silently, hanging on her cheeks, crystal clear, stinging his eyes.
She said dumbly: "Deng Man is a very considerate person, I don't think she meant to like you, and the diary she kept before her death also proves how hard she lived in those days, but I know she just Having gone through the blow of the college entrance examination, and saying something like that to her is undoubtedly a slap in the face on the spot, she is so slender, she is afraid that she will lose my friendship with Tang Jie, and it is not surprising that she can't figure it out and go to a dead end."
His chest was tight. No wonder she suddenly fell ill so urgently and seriously, she was finally discharged from the hospital, and she lost shape.
"I saw that Deng Man's mother was so miserable that she felt scared in addition to self-blame. Including you and Tang Jie, I didn't dare to tell anyone what happened that day. All I know is that Deng Man's parents are only her daughter. , I was only eighteen years old, and it was gone. I was tortured day and night, and every day I wondered, if I changed the way of communication that day, or waited for her mood to improve and then hinted to her, would she not go on No way. Thinking about it now, for an 18-year-old girl, failing in the college entrance examination may not be the most terrifying, but losing friendship is the most desperate."
She burst into tears: "I dream of Deng Man every night. Later, when you came to me, I tried desperately to convince myself that this matter has nothing to do with our relationship. I dated you first, even if my words were indirect. Deng Man's death was caused, and I should be blamed alone, and should not affect our relationship, but when I went downstairs to see you later, I found that things were far less simple than I thought, as long as I saw you , I just remember the look Deng Man looked at you that day, and the swollen face after Deng Man's death, my legs were straight and weak, and I didn't even have the courage to approach you. From this, I know that I can't be happy anymore. I'll keep in touch with you."
His face darkened and he looked straight at her. Although he once suspected that her breakup was related to Deng Man's death, he didn't expect that there would be such a twist.
And it's been so long since she mentioned this matter, her emotions still fluctuated so much, which shows how deep a shadow the death of her good friend has left, which has been in her heart for so many years.
Seeing her tears roll more and more, his heart twitched unknowingly, the original intention of the conversation had long been forgotten, and the grievances accumulated for many years were almost gone in a minute.
He took her into his arms and wiped her tears with a cold face.
She looked at him with tears in her eyes: "After breaking up, I heard that you went to university in B city. I think you are so good that you will find a new girlfriend soon, and I also try to integrate into university life."
He doesn't speak. After being dumped that year, my buddy saw that he was brokenhearted. In order to force him to meet a new girlfriend, he would take him out to play every now and then, but he must have had a problem with his eyes at that time.
He went to college and received high-intensity training every day. In order to prevent his father who opposed his criminal investigation from seeing jokes, he gritted his teeth and insisted on his studies. Gradually, he found that this state was very suitable for him, at least more than the kind of heart-piercing when he was in love. The pain of the split lung was much easier. Later, he graduated with the first grade, which was not unrelated to his focus on studies in those years.
In fact, to a certain extent, he and Lu Yan are the same kind of people.
