Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Serial Disappearances

Datang is a relatively wealthy village under Kunshan City.Most of the villagers live in newly built three-story buildings, and the businesses run in the village are also booming, attracting a large number of outsiders to work. Many villagers have even given up farming and leased their fields to outsiders for farming.More than half of the people who live on the land of Datang Village are not villagers of Datang. When the interview car drove into Datang Village, I looked at the village square that passed by, which was quite impressive, with a tall globe sculpture and a large electronic display screen.In fact, this square is a bit too big, and it looks empty.

This is no longer a rural area that strictly depends on the above. Its farmland is decreasing due to various reasons, and it is in the transition period from rural to urban. The street signs here are not as ubiquitous as in the city. The envelope Huang Zhi sent me had the address written on it, but I still asked for directions several times before I found the approximate place. The car was parked in a place where buildings were concentrated, a bit like a residential area in a city.After I thanked the dead machine, the interview car turned around and headed back to Shanghai. The land of Huang Zhi's family was requisitioned by the village to build an ecological park. As compensation, there was a certain amount of living allowance every month.With the standard of living here, even with a child, they can barely make ends meet.If she can find another job, she can live well.Her letter did not mention this, and I told her that she might not be able to find a job.After all, everyone in the village knew that her spirit was different from normal people.

It was nearly four o'clock in the afternoon, and it had rained not long ago, and the ground was still wet, so the temperature was not too high.After walking not far, I saw an old woman with a wrinkled face sitting on the steps of a three-story building, choosing vegetables.Speaking of which, the buildings here have become urbanized, but people's habits are not so easy to change. This is the second village.Huangzhi's address only reads "Huangzhi, Second Village, Datang Village", without a more specific house number.I went up to the old woman and asked her. She stopped what she was doing and looked up at me with a bright smile on her wrinkled face.But then she shook her head and asked me, "What did you say?"

She still shook her head, indicating that she didn't understand. "What?" she asked in Kunshan dialect. I realized that she couldn't understand Mandarin, so I quickly switched to Shanghainese and asked again.People in Jiangsu and Zhejiang speak each other's dialect accents more slowly, and they can understand each other almost the same. Hearing me say the word Huang Zhi, the old lady's face changed immediately, with disgust and fear hidden in the wrinkles. "Why do you want to go to her house? Tell you, it's unlucky." "Unlucky?" I was a little surprised.She didn't say that Huang Zhi was a lunatic, but that it was bad luck to go to her house.

"This woman is evil, you go to her, be careful not to be restrained." The old lady said cautiously in a short sentence. I laughed, Kefu and the like, I am afraid that only old people in this grade still believe it. When the old man saw me smiling, he knew I didn't believe me, sighed and said, "Young man, alas!" She pointed in the direction with her finger and said, "If you want to find her, just go in there, her house and others Home is different." I walked a little way in that direction and saw it.It was easy to identify, because it was a run-down two-story house.To say dilapidated does not mean that the walls are down and the tiles are broken, but that the house is dull and old, with very little paint left on the walls, and it looks taupe, which contrasts sharply with the beautiful neighbor's house nearby.In addition, the distance between it and other people's houses is obviously larger, and it is huddled alone in the corner of this residential area.

I stood at the door and rang the bell. From the outside, her house must have not been renovated for many years, which shows the situation.I know that her husband died unexpectedly a few months before giving birth to the paper baby. She valued the baby very much, so she went to the best maternity hospital he knew to give birth.That's why I saw her in a maternity and infant hospital in Shanghai, unaccompanied except for her daughter.But I don't know the situation of other relatives in the family.The old woman was full of bad luck just now, Ke, what do you mean? I rang the doorbell again.

I still remember how she looked when I saw Huang Zhi in the hospital three years ago, she didn't look like a peasant woman at all.In traditional Chinese aesthetics, sometimes sickness is also a kind of beauty in women, and this is Huang Zhi.After three years, seeing her again, I don't know what she will look like.Many mental patients will age quickly after they get sick, but there are also some patients who are more nourished than normal people because they no longer have worldly worries. Still no one came to the door.It seems that the timing is unlucky, and there is no one in her house.However, she is such a patient, so she is probably just walking around the village, so she won't come back very late. After all this time, I am going to wait for her.

Walking around her house and looking it over carefully, I feel even more desolate.The top of the fence in the yard is not level anymore, and sometimes there are missing corners, exposing the bricks inside; a window glass on the second floor was broken, but it was not replaced, but it was covered with fast cardboard. I suddenly felt that the hardships of life were coming to me. Turn back and ring the doorbell again, still nothing.I walked back the same way, and there is an ancient town next to Datang Village, called "Qiandeng", where I can go shopping to pass the time. When I passed the old woman choosing vegetables, she was looking at me.I stopped in my tracks, maybe I could talk to him.

"Can I chat with you for a moment?" "Okay, okay." The old lady nodded at me without moving her hands.Old people always like to chat with young people. "Why did you say that Huang Zhi's family is unlucky?" I asked. "Yo!" The old lady stopped and shook her head, "She's very evil." "It's evil, why do you say that?" The old lady turned her head and took a look, it was the direction of Huang Zhi's house.From just this one glance, I really felt that she was really scared. But what is she afraid of? "Huang Zhi is a girl, I watched her grow up." The old lady began to tell Huang Zhi's story.

Huang Zhi calls old man Huang Dad.Old man Huang is an old bachelor from Datang Village, who adopted such an orphan girl.People say to raise children to guard against old age, and Old Man Huang probably meant the same thing. Huang Zhi was only a five or six-year-old girl when she came here, and she was very sensible. After a few years, she started to help the old man Huang.Old man Huang was a fisherman. At that time, there were still a lot of fish in the small river flowing through Datang Village. It was not difficult to catch a dozen or twenty fish by pushing the boat out for a few hours every day.Speaking of it, Huang Zhi can be considered to be exposed to the wind and rain, but some people are born with no tan, and I don’t know how many city girls who put on sunscreen will be pissed to death.

Before he was really too old to move, Mr. Huang went fishing in a strong wind for the first time, and the boat was blown over. Huang Zhi swam ashore, but when he looked back, he couldn't see his father.I walked on the water for a lifetime, but this time my feet were bound by aquatic plants. When I was rescued, I was already out of breath.Huang Zhi was sixteen years old this year. But just such an accident, no one can say that Huang Zhi is unlucky. Not long after, Huang Zhi married Zhou Guodong. About a year later, when she was still pregnant with Zhou Xianxian, Zhou Guodong's father died of illness. At this time, the villagers still didn't think anything of it. Instead, because Zhou Guodong was drinking too much, he beat Huang Zhi when he was drunk, and persuaded him to be nice to his wife.When such a girl gets married, there is no one in her family, and there is nothing she can do if she has no status in the family. Zhou Xianxian hadn't turned three years old when she made a sound when her grandmother, Zhou Guodong's mother, disappeared.All the family members went to work in the fields that day, and in the afternoon, when the sun was hot, Zhou Guodong asked his mother to go home to rest and take care of the baby.As a result, when she returned home at sunset, she saw Zhou Xianxian alone.When the old man was still missing at night, the two called the police.The police searched for a long time, and posted missing person notices nearby, but they haven't heard from the old man until today. As a result, rumors that Huang Zhi's horoscope was too hard to overcome people quietly spread.When Huang Zhi's belly grew bigger again and she was pregnant with her second child, Zhou Guodong also disappeared strangely.According to what Huang Zhi told the police, Zhou Guodong was drunk again that night and beat her up.After the torture, Huang Zhi hid in the toilet and cried alone. Half an hour later, she came out of the toilet, but no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find Zhou Guodong.She thought her husband was out drinking or playing mahjong again, but he didn't see anyone until the next evening.Of course, the police also suspected Huang Zhi, but no matter whether it was a disappearance or a murder suspicion, there was no clue at all, and it finally became a case without a clue.But after that, the villagers seldom interacted with her family, and their eyes became evasive when looking at her.During the interview at the hospital, Huang Zhi told me that her husband was "gone." I thought he was dead, but unexpectedly he was "gone." But I never thought that before the matter was over, Zhou Xianxian disappeared again. "What? Zhou Xianxian is really missing?" I asked in surprise after hearing what she said. "It's missing, Huang Zhi is the only one left in this family." The old lady glanced in the direction of Huang Zhi's house as she spoke. "When did this happen?" "It's been two or three months. Huang Zhi's brain has gone wrong, and he doesn't care about his daughter. It's good to know that buying vegetables and cooking wine is good. Her children are out all day, hanging out with strangers. I said, I should have been cheated away long ago.: The old lady narrowed her eyes as she spoke. "Hanging out with strangers?" "It's not from the village, I haven't seen it before." "Did the little girl get lost, or was she really kidnapped?" "Who knows? I don't know. It's good that that little baby is gone." The old lady sighed. I froze for a moment, and seemed to feel that the old woman in front of me was not lamenting Zhou Xianxian's disappearance, but rather relieved. Why did this kind-hearted old man say "it's fine to disappear"?It's even a little vicious. Noticing my surprise, the old man did not intend to take back his words. Instead, he continued: "No one in the village wants to hold this little baby. I think she is the same as her mother, and she cannot be close." "what?" "You haven't seen it before. At such a young age, you don't cry, laugh, or talk. Your eyes are cold and cold. After looking at you, your spine is cold for a long time." A child's heartbreak is even greater than that of her mother.I don't think so, actually I met Zhou Xianxian, she was an introverted child who didn't like drinking three years ago.Successive accidents at home will of course have an impact on children. Cheerful children will also become introverted, while introverted children will become withdrawn.Coupled with a mother who was shunned by fellow villagers for fear of being too late, it was impossible for Zhou Xianxian to be disliked by her neighbors.It's just that the people in this village are too superstitious, life for orphans and widows is really not easy. Why didn't I come here sooner and have a look?I secretly blamed myself. "What did the police say, do you have any clues?" "Anyway, I haven't found it yet, and her mother's words are confusing. How can I find a way?" From the old lady's answer and expression, I understand a little bit.The only relative of the missing girl was a mentally ill person, and if the villagers who might provide clues had the same prejudice against Zhou Xianxian as the old lady, they would naturally not actively cooperate.Coupled with the fact that this family had repeated cases of headless disappearances, I am afraid that this case will also become a new headless case, and no one wants to spend more time on it. After doing the math, Huang Zhi wrote to me for help as soon as his daughter disappeared.Why didn't I come earlier?I asked myself again. If I had just become a reporter after graduating from university, even if it was a letter from a mental patient, I would try my best to verify it, even if I called the local police station to verify it.But now... I shook my head, pushing some thoughts out of my head.No matter what, I will do my best to find Zhou Xianxian. "I think you look good, and I told you when you came back to talk to me. Don't go to her house, listen to me." The old lady said. "Actually, I came back so soon because there was no one in her house." I laughed. "She's not at home? Impossible!" the old lady said with certainty. "It's really not here, I rang the bell several times." "No, she shuts herself at home and rarely goes out, so she can't wait to buy groceries and not come back at this time. Besides, I sat here early in the morning, and I didn't see her pass by except for lunch at noon." The old lady stopped what she was doing, thought for a while, moved the basin aside, and stood up. "Go, go and see".she says. The old lady is no taller than my shoulders, but her legs and feet are very agile at such an age, and she walks not slowly. "Why did you come to see Huang Zhi?" The old lady only remembered to ask me why I came here. "I'm a reporter from Shanghai Morning Star News, she..." I was only in the middle of my sentence when the old lady interrupted and said, "So she sent you those letter wines. I didn't expect you to come to see her. We all said how busy a big reporter is." I have to care about the national economy and the people's livelihood all day long, so how can I care about a crazy woman. Hey, speaking of Huang Zhi, I watched her grow up, and I often told her stories when I was young. I didn't expect..." The old lady came Lost my energy, I babbled on and on, which made me blush a little.Today, when the news is becoming more and more entertaining, probably only such a rural old woman would have such high respect for reporters.Most of the letters she wanted to come to Huangzhi were sent by fellow villagers, so whoever she sent letters to would have become a topic of public discussion in the village. After all, the people in the village can still maintain a minimum of caring for each other. Even if the old lady is superstitious and says that Huang Zhi is not at home abnormally, she still has to come and take a look. In a blink of an eye, I came to the door of Huang Zhi's house. I stood at the door and rang the doorbell again, but there was still no movement. "Go to the back and have a look." I followed the old lady to the back door. "You push the door to see." The old lady said to me. "Push the door?" The door was closed. I looked at the old lady in surprise, and she nodded to me affirmatively. I stretched out my hand and pushed it, and the door shrank slightly. "Try harder." The old lady's voice came from behind. I used some strength in my hands, and the door lock made a soft click, and I pushed it open. "The lock on the back door of her house has been broken for a long time, and the card won't die. I have no money to replace it. Fortunately, there are no bad people in our village, and there is nothing valuable in her house." I'm a little overwhelmed.Is this for me to go in?Entering a private home is illegal. "What are you doing? Help me go in and see what's going on. I won't go in, but judging by your appearance, I don't believe that." The old lady smiled shrewdly. "Okay." I hesitated and walked in. The glass windows are covered with dust, which has not been wiped for a long time, and the light transmission is not good. In addition, it is almost evening now, and the sunlight has long lost its vitality. As soon as I walked into Huang's house, I felt a little gray and cold . This should be a storage room, with some broken boards and newspapers piled up in the corner, nothing else.When I passed by, I took a careful look. The top newspaper was "Morning Star". The front hall was still empty, and there were a few more things than the storage room: a long wooden chair, a small square table, two wooden boxes, a cabinet that was propped up with a crippled leg, and a fourteen 2.5-inch TVs—those old things that are not interesting to the tattered collectors in the city these days. On the other side is the kitchen. There are several pots next to the stove, one of which is still patched. The paint on the single-door refrigerator is also peeling. There are rust spots on the sides and back. embarrassment. The old lady outside was obviously a little worried that something would happen to Huang Zhi, but she didn't find anything unusual on the ground floor. I got stuck in the refrigerator a few times.In such an environment, the refrigerator will create a lot of associations. I am a person with a rich imagination, and many ideas will come out involuntarily. I grabbed the doorknob of the refrigerator, hesitating a little, is it necessary, I just came in to see if there was anything wrong with Huang Zhi, and opening the refrigerator door of someone else’s house, it’s the same as opening a drawer, it’s a further part of voyeurism . The biggest difference between a refrigerator and a drawer is that the refrigerator is much larger and can accommodate larger items. With a little force on my hand, the refrigerator door opened.As soon as a crack was opened, a strange smell emerged from it.I sniffed, suddenly felt sick, and took a step back.Under inertia, the refrigerator door opened slowly by itself. There was no light in the opened refrigerator, and the refrigerator was not plugged in. A bowl of rice, a bowl of fried eggplant, two eggs.That's all there is to it. On such a hot day, the food will go bad after being stuffy for a few hours. If you smell this smell, you may have been in the refrigerator with no electricity for two or three days. I held my nose, closed the refrigerator, and walked out of the kitchen. I didn't think too much about why I unplugged the refrigerator when there was food in it. After all, Huang Zhi is a mental patient.But this at least proves that Huang Zhi hasn't eaten at home these two days. where did he goNo one in the village knew about it! The wooden stairs creaked under my feet as I went up to the second floor. The second floor is home to several bedrooms, as deserted as the ground floor.I've looked in the closets and under the bed, and there's nothing out of the ordinary.Over the years, the people who used to sleep in these bedrooms on the second floor have "disappeared" one by one. Thinking of this, no matter whether I believe the old woman's statement or not, I feel chills. Just like the dolls in the room in front of her, Zhou Xianxian should miss them no matter where she is now. I walked out of this bedroom, but suddenly froze, my eyes looked around, and the skin on my face and hands felt numb for a while. This is a set of bedrooms with two entrances inside and outside. From the inner bedroom, there is a smaller bedroom outside.Going out again, it is the corridor connecting the up and down stairs. I didn't think it was wrong to walk from the outer room to the inner room before, but now when I walked out of the bedroom full of puppets, I saw the bed in the outer room, and immediately realized that the two connected inner and outer rooms are sleeping rooms. human. And the bed in the outer room is a small bed. There was a small pillow outside the small bed. I rushed to a wooden box by the wall and opened the lid. The clothes inside were obviously worn by a little girl.The bedroom inside was not the bedroom where Zhou Xianxian and Huang Zhi slept together, Zhou Xianxian slept in this room alone.A six or seven-year-old girl rarely dares to sleep alone, even if her mother sleeps in the room.That's right, that room full of puppets is Huang Zhi's bedroom! I slowly turned around and walked back to the doll room. There are puppets everywhere, on the bed, on the table, on the chair, on the windowsill.I open the closet, yes there is a closet. I took one in my hand, which was sewn by Huangzhi himself. The body and limbs were made of gray cloth, and the head was made of white cloth, stuffed with cotton wool or rags.The doll's face is drawn, with black strokes for the eyes and red strokes for the grinning mouth. All the dolls have similar faces, with wide-open eyes and wide-open mouths.I suddenly felt that dozens of puppets in the room were staring at me from different corners and shouting silently. My forehead is cold and my palms are damp.I know why Huang Zhi makes so many puppets. I withdrew from the surrounding of the puppets, and the scene when I interviewed her three years ago in the ward of a maternity and infant hospital came to my mind. Huang Zhi lay on the bed and stared at me for a long time before taking my business card.Her movements were hard and heavy. Then she looked at my business card for a long time. It was not that there was anything fancy about this little piece of paper, but that her whole body was slack, and it would be very painful for her to regroup. process. Finally, the expression on her face changed a little.She held the business card in her hand, turned to look at me, and there was a gleam of light in her eyes again. "Mr. Reporter." She addressed me solemnly and plainly. "Mr. Reporter, you have to help me, help me." She grabbed my wrist with such strength that I felt like I was in an iron hoop. I couldn't break free, so I smiled at her and said, "Don't call me teacher, if you want, I want to talk to you about your experience this time." "Mr. Reporter, they took my child away, they took my child away!" Huang Zhi's volume rang, which made me a little embarrassed. "No hurry, let's talk slowly." I comforted her. "It's impossible for me to just give birth to such a thing." Speaking of that thing, a trace of fear flashed across Huang Zhi's face, "You...you know...." I nodded: "I already know it, and I've seen it before." "No, you don't know." She shook her head violently, "My baby is not like that, he is healthy, strong, and a little restless." Her eyes became slack again, as if immersed in her own Go to the imaginary picture. I coughed, interrupted her imagination, and said, "I asked the doctor, and he said that your kind...is called a paper baby." "Paper baby? What is a paper baby?" Huang Zhi stared at me with a bit of ferocity in his eyes, "How could I give birth to a paper baby?" "The paper baby is..." I suddenly got stuck.I remembered that this was just a paper baby appearance, but in fact it couldn't be explained by the paper baby case. Seeing that I couldn't continue, Huang Zhi suspected that I knew something and kept urging me to speak.I had to briefly explain what a paper baby is. "Oppressed, oppressed by what?" Huang Zhi was keen to grasp the details of my intentionally vague past and asked me. "It was... oppressed by another fetus, but the doctor said that you didn't give birth to another healthy baby, so it just looks like a paper baby." "That's right, that's right, I must have given birth to another healthy child." Huang Zhi automatically ignored the second half of my sentence and said excitedly. "But the doctor only delivered such a deformed baby for you." "No, there must be one more." Huang Zhi said stubbornly, "There must be one more!" She repeated emphatically again.I began to feel that it was a mistake to interview this delirious patient. "Mr. Reporter, really, you have to believe me. I won't lie to you, I must still be pregnant with a healthy baby. Otherwise, how could I give birth to such a strange thing? Can the doctor explain it? He can't justify himself !" "Well, there are some special cases in medicine that cannot be explained." "No, no, listen to me. When I was pregnant again, I often felt the little guy in my stomach move. It's not the first time I'm pregnant, I know it. This time, the baby in my stomach is thinner than when I was pregnant. , much more restless. I kept thinking, this must be a naughty boy." "Then... have you ever done a B-ultrasound?" I thought of a way to prove it. "No, I don't want to spend that money again. I'm pregnant anyway, and I like both boys and girls." "This..." I know that the movement of the fetus in the pregnant woman's body is often just a wishful illusion of the pregnant woman, which cannot be taken as irrefutable evidence. "Sister Wang, Sister Wang." Huang Zhi called a patient in the clinic, "Didn't I ask you to listen to my stomach a few days ago? Didn't you hear the baby moving?" "Ah, yes." Sister Wang replied.All the patients in the ward listened to the conversation between me and Huang Zhi, and I was asked to speak softly. They may not be able to listen to the whole thing, but they must all know that Huang Zhi failed to give birth to the baby. "Did you really hear that?" I asked "It seems... There seems to be some movement." Sister Wang hesitated when asked, "But I can't hear it clearly, so I can't tell." "Oh, Miss Wang, didn't you say that there was a lot of noise?" Huang Zhi said anxiously. "Well, maybe there is." No matter what, Sister Wang just refused to say it to death.She has the shrewdness of a Shanghainese, speaks ambiguous words, and is unwilling to get involved in the current possible medical dispute.Of course, she may also feel that she really didn't hear clearly, and she just said a few pleasant words to Huang Zhi politely that day. The second half of the interview that day became meaningless.No matter what I said, Huang Zhi stubbornly believed that she was pregnant with a healthy child, but the doctor took her child away.But how can I agree with her words, that means that this tertiary first-class hospital in Shanghai has taken away the child of the mother without any cover up.How is this possible! The doctor couldn't explain how the paper-shaped baby was formed, and the mother believed that the hospital stole her baby. How can I write this report?I just had to say sorry to my informant, he won't get his bonus again. For me, it all ends after the interview.But for Huang Zhi, she always believed that she once had a baby.The baby squeezed and absorbed another brother into a piece of skin in her body, but finally disappeared in the air.She didn't go to the hospital to file a lawsuit, but she went crazy and made countless dolls, as if they were her mysteriously missing children. When I walked out of the back door of Huang Zhi's house again, I was shocked.The old lady was not the only one waiting at the door, there were five people including her, staring at me without pair of eyes. "How?" asked the old lady. "No one." I didn't say anything about the refrigerator. There are so many people here, I don't want to say that I went into the house and rummaged through things, so as not to cause trouble. "I just said, I saw her go out early yesterday morning." A Chinese character in a security uniform said. I was a little surprised that this village hired security guards. Then I remembered that when I came in just now, I saw a pavilion at the door, but I didn’t see anyone. I don’t know where he went to desert. "Early yesterday morning?" I asked him. "Well, around five o'clock, maybe not yet five o'clock. But I was a little sleepy at the time, and I couldn't see clearly, so I wasn't sure just now." "I said Xiaoxia, you are a security guard, how can you feel sleepy during working hours, especially at night and early in the morning. Recently, there are more and more people from outside the village..." An old man in his sixties asked this question. A security guard took the safety precaution class, and the security guard repeatedly said yes.Seeing him nodding his head so happily made me doubt that he would go in and out.But what does it matter to me. Huang Zhi left early yesterday morning.I guess she unplugged the refrigerator because she knew she would be out for a while and didn't want to waste electricity.But because of her mental disorder, she forgot that there were still vegetables in the refrigerator, and it would be broken if it was not plugged in. Where will Huang Zhi go? Will she go to find her daughter?Maybe it was because the love ebbed and left too obvious traces in my heart. After the reunion, she still treated me a little differently.I shouldn't complain anymore, after all, she appeared in front of me, so I at least have a chance to start all over again. The emotions that erupted in times of crisis are swift and intense, and now I have learned to keep them in my heart and use the trickle of water to grind my kung fu.I have no doubt that one day I will catch up with her, I just help her regain those lost feelings. He Xi has always been punctual, but now ten minutes have passed the appointed time.I ordered two plates of cold cuts, and I ate them first to fill my stomach. Sitting at the table near me was a soft-spoken young couple.I was using chopsticks to pick up a soy peanut and put it into my mouth, but I caught a glimpse of the boy who always looked at each other with a smile, his eyes suddenly deviated from his lover's face. When I turned my head, I saw He Xi, and there were many eyes that were either concealed or open to her. "It's rare to see you eat it." I said to her with a smile. "I just finished an autopsy, and I'm in a hurry to come here." He Xi looked up at me and said, "Is there any paper? I'll wipe my hands." "Uh..." I was taken aback, "Did you finish the autopsy... and come here without washing your hands?" He Xi raised her hand to me with a cold face. The ten fingers are slender, white and delicate.Fortunately, it doesn't look like there's blood or anything like that. "I'm lying to you, there's a traffic jam." A smile appeared on He Xi's face. In the eyes of her colleagues, this is probably a woman who is as weird as she is beautiful, but recently she seems to be smiling in front of me a lot. This is a Sichuan restaurant with a good business. I specially ordered some spicy dishes, because I really like to see He Xi's rosy face and the appearance of fine sweat oozing from the tip of her nose, which is very different from her usual. When the food was served, I briefly talked about Zhou Xianxian's affairs. "Okay. But it may not be found." I nod.It has been missing for so long, if the investigation work was not done carefully at that time, it would indeed be very difficult. He Xi is a person who doesn't like to talk. When I'm with her, I have to find ways to find various topics, otherwise I will be cold.I once tried what would happen if it was cold all the time, and the two stared at each other for more than 20 minutes. Although she was very beautiful, I was still too cold to be defeated.The most shocking thing was that she acted as if nothing had happened. I have slowly figured out what topics He Xi would be interested in.After I finished talking about Zhou Xianxian's disappearance, I went back and told her about the paper baby. I am used to writing down my experiences in notes, and then speaking them out with my mouth, and I know where I should make some adjustments to whet my appetite.In addition, the matter itself was mysterious enough, so even though the dishes had already been brought up one by one, He Xi slowed down the frequency of moving her chopsticks a little bit, obviously her attention was attracted by this bizarre story. "What happened to the paper baby?" She asked after listening. "Later? I don't know, it should have been disposed of." "Oh, how great it would be if you dissected me." He Xi sighed.
