Chapter 42 41. Soap

Coming out of my grandfather's house, I immediately walked to Mr. S's house. When Mr. S's mother came out of the entrance when the doorbell rang, she covered her mouth with her hand when she saw me.It seemed that she hadn't expected me to come at all. "Master Dao, I'm so sorry yesterday. I—" "Auntie, there is one thing I want you to tell me." Anyway, there is one thing I must confirm right away, there is not much time left. "Does Daji have anything to do with soap?" Mr. S's mother seemed to be confused by my question for a while.I asked again more directly.

"Does Daji hate the smell of soap?" Mr. S's mother looked down at me, half puzzled, and nodded. "When Daji was still a cub, he fell into the laundry bucket in the laundry room and couldn't get out. Although I was washing clothes at the time, I suddenly had to go out -- Daji seemed to be entangled in those clothes... " "Can't stand the smell of soap?" "Yes. People from the newspaper office put a soap box in the entrance, and it couldn't stand it, it was trembling." So when I walked into the entrance yesterday, Daji made a very timid voice.Because Uncle Flour stuffed a piece of soap into my hand, my hands were stained with the smell of soap.

"But Mr. Dao, why do you ask this?" "Please show me the yard!" Without waiting for Mr. S's mother to answer, I went directly to the yard.Go to the innermost window and look around. Mr. S's mother chased him with slippers on. "Have the police searched here?" "Yes, I searched everything..." "Where's under the weeds? Have you searched everything? Under the corridor?" Mr. S's mother frowned in embarrassment, and replied, "I think I've already searched." But I still bent down, pressed against the ground, and carefully Examine those shadows carefully.Places overgrown with weeds, places shaded by stones, and the inner side of the pillars of the verandah. --No.nowhere.

"Master Taoist, what exactly are you—" "I'm sorry, Auntie. It'll be over soon." My face was almost on the ground, I looked around and reached out to feel around.But still nothing, nowhere.Could it be that the police have found it?Or am I thinking wrong?I couldn't stop panting.must be found.If you can't find it—where is it?Could it be that it is hidden somewhere—— I turned my head suddenly. In my line of sight, there are many sunflowers. "Understood..." I said silently to myself.
