Chapter 23 Hesitation
Uncle Liu was not the only one who couldn't sleep at night. In the educated youth dormitory in the south of the village, a man with a haggard face sat on the door frame and smoked non-stop. His eyes were a little cloudy and sometimes he appeared to be in a trance for a short time.
"Still thinking about it?" Just then, a woman appeared behind the man, holding a bowl of noodles in her hand, and put it directly into the man's hand. "I didn't see you eat much tonight. I still have some corn flour. I made you a bowl of noodles."
"Chun Ying, do you think we should contact those people?" The man put out the cigarette in his hand and put the remaining half of it back into the cloth bag on his chest.
"Let's wait and see." The woman called Chunying glanced at the bustling stars above her head, as if she wanted to find a familiar face among them. "Xiao Yang has been gone for six years, right?"
"It's been almost six years." The man took a mouthful of noodles and then sighed, "Xiao Zhou has been gone for almost six years."
"Yeah." Chunying also sighed, "Xiao Yang's death was a big blow to Xiao Zhou. It's a pity that we haven't sought justice for him after so many years." Indeed, their hearts have gone from being full of youth at the beginning to being devastated now, as if a voice told them that no matter what you do, it will be of no use.
"When I returned to the city some time ago, I heard from Xiao Zhou's neighbor that Xiao Zhou went to Hong Kong with his parents a few years ago and hasn't been back for a long time." The man nodded, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes, but he recovered quickly. "Why do you think Liu Xi targeted those guys who just came?"
"Old Qian, can't you see that Liu Xi is afraid of Jiang He?" Chunying thought for a moment and said, "Even if we wanted to find evidence over the years, we were restricted by them in various ways. I can see that the three men are not like us."
"It's difficult. Liu Xi's daughter has gone crazy. All the unfavorable evidence points to Xiao Yang. What can he find out?" Another man in a patched jacket rushed in. "What's the use of Xiao Zhou's testimony alone?"
As soon as he said this, the room fell into silence. After a long time, a sigh was heard...
…
"Xiao He, did you not sleep well last night? Young man, please take care of your health." Early in the morning, as soon as Jiang He opened the door, Gao Youhui pulled him over and started teasing him.
"Get lost! Hurry up. If you delay any longer, you'll be too late." Jiang He slapped the dog's paw on his shoulder and put his hands down by the well. He threw the bucket of water next to him into the well, then quickly drew the water and poured it into the basin. The icy well water splashed on his face, driving away his sleepiness.
"Hiss, the weather is so hot, but the water is still so cold?" After wringing out the water from the wool, Gao Youhui took off his shirt and complained while wiping his bare arms.
"Wow, tsk tsk, you have a good figure." Jiang He just wiped his face clean and looked up to see the other person's eight-pack abs. He felt a little envious and jealous. In his previous life, no matter how he exercised, his skin became tighter and tighter, but he never trained his abs until his death. This was probably a big regret in his previous life.
"That's - when I was in the old city, I often made appointments with him to go ice skating. He has special training equipment, and I usually go there to exercise when I go there to play." Gao Youhui touched his belly and said proudly.
"Go back and put on your clothes, you have a cold." Lu Mingfeng poured a basin of cold water over him.
"..." Gao Youhui showed a look of "are you kidding me?" "There are only three of us here, we are not a bother to anyone, right?"
"It's easy to get stye." Lu Mingfeng glanced at him.
“Hahahaha…” Jiang He saw the disgust on Lu Mingfeng’s face and thought that he was also jealous of Gao Youhui’s good figure, so he laughed beside him.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Perhaps because the three of them were making too much noise, Xiao Liuzi pushed open the window and asked in a daze.
