Chapter 976 The Last Meeting
A-Ning ran in and stood behind Shu-Yu. "What did you just say, little sister?"
Xiao Ya raised her head, looked at her, then at Shu Yu, not quite understanding why they were together.
But when she mentioned her grandfather, her eyes filled with tears again, and large tears streamed down her face.
When A Ning saw this, she immediately became anxious, "Little sister, don't cry, you'll ruin your eyes."
Shu Yu told A Ning not to speak yet. The first thing Xiao Ya said to her when she saw her was "Grandpa," which meant she must have remembered what Shu Yu had said to her the day before.
She nodded to Xiaoya'er, "Yes, I promised you I would take you to see your grandfather. Do you still want to go now?"
"Go, go."
The little girl let go of his hand, wiped away her tears, and crawled towards the edge of the bed, trying to get down.
Shu Yu held her down, "Don't rush, eat something first, and I'll take you there after you're done eating."
The little girl nodded repeatedly. Seeing this, A Ning quickly went to the kitchen and brought over a bowl of noodles with an egg nestled on top.
The portion isn't large, since Xiaoya is still sick and even vomited after eating before. This is just enough to warm her stomach and fill her belly.
It was Ah Ning who fed her the noodles. The little girl had a very big sister vibe, just like she did when she took care of Bao Ya.
After they finished eating and rested for a while, Shu Yu carried her out the door fully armed.
Ah Ning originally wanted to go with them, but the old lady stopped her.
Although she said she wanted to be a doctor in the future and was not afraid of blood or death, she was still young, and the place was eerily gloomy, so the old lady couldn't feel at ease.
Little Sprout had no choice; Old Man Cui was her only relative, and she had to see him one last time before he was buried.
Shu Yu drove a mule cart there. Although the county government office was not far from Liufang Lane, Xiao Ya'er was not in good health, so it was more convenient for her to take a cart.
When they arrived at the county government office, they found Jiang Kuanyu already waiting there.
Shu Yu nodded to him and carried Xiao Ya'er into the county government office.
Jiang Kuanyu turned to look at Xiaoya'er and saw that the little girl was only looking eagerly into the yamen. He asked her a few questions, but she didn't say a word. He couldn't help but sigh.
The group was led by the officers to the outer room of the morgue. This was Hu Li's special instruction, to have Old Man Cui placed alone in the outer room for them to see, so that they wouldn't be frightened by the poor air and gloomy lighting in the inner room.
As soon as the little girl saw Old Cui's body, she struggled to get down and immediately rushed over to him, crying.
Shu Yu, quick-witted and agile, stopped the person, saying, "Don't touch it, just look around and talk here."
Little Sprout turned her head away, her eyes brimming with tears.
Shu Yu had no choice; it was already a favor that she was able to bring her here. This was a murder case, and outsiders shouldn't be allowed to see it before the case was closed. How could she possibly touch it?
Moreover, the child is sick and has a weakened immune system, so it's actually inappropriate to even get close to him.
Before Shu Yu went out, she made sure to provide her with protective gear.
Little Sprout was actually very sensible. In the end, she obediently listened to him, knelt down not far away, and cried loudly, talking to Old Man Cui intermittently while crying.
Her voice was muffled and unclear, and Shu Yu couldn't understand what she was saying.
Finally, the little girl cried so hard she almost fainted, so Shuyu quickly picked her up and took her out.
Jiang Kuanyu inquired about the progress of the case and learned that the case would be finally closed this afternoon when the Tang family arrived. Tang was responsible for two murders and would definitely be sentenced to death.
According to the rules, Xiaoya should have been summoned for questioning, but due to the special circumstances and the fact that she was just a child, she was not allowed to appear.
