Chapter 16 Section IX

Around seven o'clock, Hiromi arrived at Ogiwara's house.She walked on the narrow path under the street lamp, and walked slowly towards the gate.The detectives would come later, and she begged them to let her see Shinji one more time and talk to Shinji. "I want to meet him and let him tell me the truth." The detectives accepted her request. The front door was dimly lit.Hiromi thought, maybe the door of this house has been so dark since a long time ago. Just when she reached out to ring the doorbell, she felt someone walking towards her from the front, and the other person seemed to be staring at Hiromi as well.Appearing from the darkness was a slender woman in her thirties, with long eyes that left a deep impression on Hiromi.Hiromi thought, this person must be Reiko Ogihara.

"You came to my house, what's the matter?" There was no trace of emotion in the woman's words.It was indeed Reiko. "I have something to talk to Shinji-kun... I am Nagai, his homeroom teacher." Hiromi gave a little compliment.Reiko just let out an unintentional "oh". "Xin Er, has he gone to school?" "Yes, since yesterday..." "Is he all right?" "It's okay. Although it's not as energetic as before, it has recovered a lot..." "Really? He recovered quite quickly." Reiko looked at the courtyard and said.Her tone was so indifferent that Hiromi couldn't help but feel a chill.

Reiko turned her gaze back to Hiromi. "Sorry, you should go back today. I still have something to do here." She brushed her long hair casually.As soon as Hongmei said "but", she kept her mouth shut.A shock that made Hiromi tremble unceasingly passed her body. "Farewell first." Reiko nodded lightly and disappeared through the door.Hong Mei stood there dumbfounded as if she had been hit by a fixed body spell.Two detectives ran to Hiromi's side. "What happened?" Takama asked out of breath. "It's something at home...Let me go back today..."

"Is there something wrong at home?" "I guess they came to pick up the luggage." Hino said with a serious face.Takama immediately bit the corner of his mouth and said, "This is not good." "Reiko wants to kill Shinji." As soon as the words fell, Takama rushed into the courtyard gate, followed by Hino.Hong Mei stood where she was, staring blankly at the backs of the two of them. After the criminal police entered the house, I don't know how long it has passed.Although it was only a few minutes, Hiromi felt that she had been standing there for a long time.Hiromi didn't want to guess what kind of plot was going on in the room at this moment, but there was a layer of consciousness firmly attached to her heart that she couldn't just escape like this.

Hiromi raised her head when she heard someone violently open the entrance door.At the same time, under the illumination of the lights in the room, several people turned into silhouettes and jumped into her eyes.The few people who twisted together were then divided into two groups, with Reiko walking in the front.Takama stubbornly grabbed Reiko, whose hair was disheveled and her eyes were red and swollen.The two kept exhaling white air from their mouths, and then the swaying figures were Shinji and Hino Detective. Just at this moment, the siren of the patrol whistled.Perhaps the voice has sounded from just now.But when Hongmei noticed it, the red revolving light had already appeared in front of her eyes.

Gao Jian and others walked out of the courtyard gate.Hiromi really wanted to say something, but seeing Reiko's appearance, she couldn't help but backed away.Lizi's gaze was like that of a terminally ill person, constantly wandering in mid-air.Seeing Hiromi, she didn't show the slightest reaction either. Takama puts Reiko in the first police car.As she talks to the uniformed policeman, Hino walks out with Shinji. The expression on Shinji's face was the same as when Hiromi met him at school today.Although his face was a little blue, his back was straight and his steps were not chaotic at all.

Seeing Hiromi approaching, Shinji also stopped, and Hiromi said, "I can understand you." "..." "The reason why Ogiwara-kun you feel pain is just now." Shinji looked at the ground, then raised his head and smiled.This time, his voice was clear and loud. "Farewell and thank you." 10 Outside the window of the police car, colorful lights flowed instantly.Everyone walking down the street bowed their backs with sad faces.But their footsteps, as if they had something good to do, hurriedly disappeared into the darkness.Shinji was envious of them being able to disappear into the darkness.For some reason, this commonplace scene felt so precious to him at this moment.

"The moonlight is really bright enough." Shinji read in a daze.But the criminal policeman next to him didn't seem to hear clearly, he just tilted his head slightly towards him, and then resumed his eyes looking straight ahead. ——The moonlight was also bright that night. Shinji thought back to a year ago.Last year was different from this year. At that time, it was so cold that even if I went to bed, I couldn't fall asleep immediately.Looking at the moonlight coming in from the gap in the curtains, Shinji curled up on the bed, rubbing his cold feet. When Reiko closed the door, Shinji realized that she had entered the room.Startled, he straightened his neck, and Reiko had already touched his pillow.

Reiko put her face close to the tip of Shinji's nose, looked at him, her eyes were piercing, and she whispered softly.What she said at the time, I can't remember now.And the warmth of her exhaled breath on her cheek is still unforgettable to this day. She slipped her hand under the quilt.The hand kept sliding, without any hesitation, it immediately slipped between Shinji's legs.Reiko seemed very satisfied with his reaction, and her laughter seemed to come from clenched teeth. She climbed into bed, her flesh soft and cold.The weight of the two people made the bed creak, and the sound is still in my ears.

This is his first time. There was no dizziness in front of my eyes, nor did I feel like I was dreaming, and there was a pain between my legs.When it was all gone, it was over and Reiko climbed out of bed. "Keep it secret." After saying that, Reiko walked out of the room.Shinji opened his empty eyes and watched her leave. —It was a contract. Shinji recalled the past.At that time, Shinji was extremely disgusted with the new mother that his father had brought back from nowhere.No matter what, Xin Er would wrestle with her, steadfastly refusing to recognize her as a mother.The new mother seduces the son.Maybe she was thinking that as long as he had a relationship with her, then he would not disobey again.And the wisdom of an adult woman like her also played a great role in him.Facing this new mother, Xin Er also sprouted that kind of complicated emotion in his heart.

A year has passed. Since that day, there has been no relationship between Shinji and Reiko.Although there is also the reason that Reiko is pregnant, Shinji always feels that she has thrown him aside, but he is completely trapped by her. Out of an ironic accident, Xin Er learned that Li Zi Hong Xing had an affair.At night when his father was away on a business trip, he mustered up the courage to go to Reiko's bedroom.However, as soon as he got to the door, he heard a noise coming from the house.Opening the door slightly, Shinji peeped into the room. After learning about her cheating with others, Shinji finally realized the demonic nature in her.He finally understood that he should act decisively.But before that, he wanted her white body to hold him in his arms again.Just once is enough... In this way, I won't have the slightest bit of confusion and hesitation anymore. That night finally came. That night, his father Qisan was supposed to be away on a business trip.Shinji watched Reiko's room from the window.Is that guy coming tonight too?If he didn't come, he would go into Reiko's bedroom.The man usually shows up at two o'clock in the middle of the night. At two o'clock sharp, the man appeared.I saw him climb over the wall and move swiftly across the courtyard.The glass door was unlocked, and the man easily entered the house. Shinji clicked his tongue.He knew that the man was called Zhongxi, with a cold personality, shrewd and capable, with thin lips in his impression. There is no play today——just as Shinji was about to close the curtains, his hands stopped.Zhongxi immediately turned around and walked out, carefully closed the glass door, followed the way he came back, and disappeared outside the wall.Shinji was taken aback and felt a little strange, but he didn't think about the reason. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.He walked out of his room without hesitation. Although he could have gone straight to the bedroom, he didn't.He decided to sneak in from the yard like Nakanishi.He did this to let Lizi understand that he already knew about her cheating, so that he could take advantage of the situation. Go to the courtyard through the side door, and then approach from there.The glass door opened silently, and Shinji moved forward lying on the ground, and the baby in the crib was breathing steadily. Behind the pleated curtain is the couple's bedroom.As soon as Shinji put his hand on the curtain, he felt as if he had been shocked by electricity, and his body became stiff. He heard Keizan's snoring. ——Dad is back. In this way, everything becomes clear.No wonder Zhongxi ran away just now. And I have to go back. Shinji tiptoed back.Just then, the baby in the crib made a slight noise. ——Tch, at such a time. Shinji stared viciously at the crib, the baby had already woken up.Seeing the baby's face, his legs went numb for a while. — This is... my child. People who have seen this child say that he looks very similar to Shinji, and he is worthy of being a brother... But from this point of view, the similar appearance is not inherited from Keizo, but from Shinji's biological mother. In the darkness, Shinji and the baby stared at each other.Shinji felt as if he had seen through the future of himself and the baby in an instant.I can't get rid of this baby in my life - even if no one can tell in the future, there is no doubt about it.The baby's gaze was like a puppet-like hand, grabbing his heel and making him struggle. In the next moment, something happened that made his heart beat wildly. The baby laughed in the dark.Facing the boy in front of him, the baby smiled so serenely.However, this move completely drove Shinji to a dead end. Something huge broke in Shinji's heart.It was as if watching slow motion, silently.Shinji confirmed the killing intent in his heart, and wrapped his cold hands around the baby's neck.The warm and soft touch stimulated his brain.Surprisingly, even under his hands, the baby still had a smile on his face. With a bang, the little life made its final sound.Shinji let go of his hand, his calm gaze wandered around. To make it look like someone else did it—that was the only thought on his mind.While being careful not to make any noise, he opened all the drawers of the furniture.After that, he wiped all the places he touched with a cloth. Immediately afterwards, he returned to his room, but could not sleep until early morning.Hearing Lizi's screams, when he walked out of the room, he felt as if he had been waiting for dozens of hours. The police did not suspect Shinji at all, and neither did Hiromi Nagai who came after hearing the news.They didn't even think about why Xin Er's eyes were bloodshot and red. For some reason, Shinji fell asleep in the police car.This has been a long time coming for him.The detective put his dangling arm back on his lap.Even the criminal police didn't know that it was a hand that killed his younger brother and his own son at the same time...
