Chapter 115 Half-awake, Half-asleep
"Are you sick? Instead of keeping watch properly in the middle of the night, you're making a racket instead of sleeping."
Her husband, Zuo Chen, glared at her and continued to lean against the wall with his eyes closed.
What just happened? Was I dreaming? It felt so real.
We haven't been able to find Ya Ya these past few days. Could it be that the dream we just had was her sending a message to us?
When I picked up my phone again, I found that the master was still live streaming.
"Qi Hong, you know the whole truth now. I have to end the broadcast. You should know how to handle the rest."
"Ah, Master, has something really happened to Ya Ya? Did you send her to enter my dream?"
Gu Yunxi nodded, turned off the live stream, washed up, and rested!
Over there, Qi Hong got up, her legs were numb and she almost fell. She slowly walked out.
He went to his bedroom and slowly walked towards the freezer.
I've been busy these past few days and haven't had much rest at night. Even if I come over, who would pay attention to the refrigerator at home, especially since it's full of food?
She slowly opened the freezer; there were some loose pieces of meat on the top of the freezer compartment.
Take the basket off the top, and a large area inside will be empty.
The freezer is quite old, and a layer of ice has formed on top. You can see that the ice is covered with scratches.
One pain after another pierced her heart.
She thought of dying together with Zuo Chen, but that would be a sin for her child. Even if she died, she would never see her daughter again.
Moreover, Zuo Chen is stronger than me, so I might be the one who suffers in the end.
Despite the pain, she took photos of the evidence and collapsed onto the bed. The funeral was at six in the morning, but she got up at five and called the police.
When Uncle Hat heard that she had evidence and that the child was very likely in danger, he rushed over in a panic.
At 5:30, the sounds of music and drumming filled the courtyard. She immediately took off her mourning clothes, put on a beautiful dress, and even applied light makeup.
The moment she stepped out of the room, her relatives, friends, and neighbors stared at her in disbelief.
Is Ya Ya's mother stupid? Today is her mother-in-law's funeral, how could she dress up like this?
Seeing her only fueled Zuo Chen's anger. "Qi Hong, are you out of your mind? It's one thing to skip the night watch, but what are you doing now? Go back and change! Look at you!"
Before he could finish speaking, several policemen rushed in. He recognized these men in hats; they had searched the village after the child went missing, but unfortunately, they hadn't found him.
"Qi Hong, do you have any new leads about the child?"
Qi Hong stepped forward, enduring the excruciating pain, and handed the video she had taken to Uncle Hat with her phone.
Pointing to his own house, Uncle Hat immediately realized that something was amiss and quickly went to the two people's house!
Like Qi Hong, seeing the scene inside the refrigerator brought tears to her eyes.
The other two grabbed Zuo Chen directly!
"What are you trying to do? Today is my mother's funeral. If you staff members delay the auspicious time, I'm going to demand an explanation from your superiors."
"Zuo Chen, what's with the scratches inside the refrigerator? In our professional opinion, these scratches were caused by a child."
"ah!"
The music stopped, and everyone looked curiously into the courtyard.
Three police cars were parked outside the gate, and their yard had already been locked.
What shocking revelation is this? There are scratches inside the refrigerator, caused by a child.
Could it be that Ya Ya was once locked in the refrigerator? Is Zuo Chen the prime suspect?
"What are you saying? I don't understand your language." Zuo Chen's voice was somewhat evasive.
"Brother, this is the evil man. He killed my daughter. I demand that the coffin be opened. My Yaya was killed by him and hidden in her grandmother's coffin. It was him, this evil man, who killed my child."
"Stop making baseless accusations! I was worried too when my child went missing. How could you frame me? Why would I hide my child in a coffin? What would I gain? She's my own daughter!"
Zuo Chen immediately raised his voice, but the panic in his tone had already been noticed by Uncle Hat who had come over.
The coffin had been turned around, ready to be carried out of the house, but now it's been put back on the ground!
Finally, one of the neighbors who carried the coffin voiced his doubts.
"Perhaps what the girl said is true. Everyone knows Ya Ya's grandmother. She has always been a strong-willed person. After Xiao Li had her child, she became even more arrogant and looked down on the mother and daughter."
Everyone can see clearly what kind of life they've been living these past few years. Moreover, this Zuo Chen is no human being; he helps his mother and deals with the mother and daughter. Even when the old lady falls ill, her daughter-in-law has to take care of her.
Where can you find such a good wife? We, the few of us carrying the coffin today, were all wondering about it.
This coffin doesn't look expensive, but why is it so heavy? The four of us used to carry coffins for the elderly in the village, and we've never encountered anything like this before.
Perhaps there really is a hidden world inside this coffin.
“That’s right. We were just saying that the old lady was sick and probably only weighed seventy or eighty pounds, but today the coffin seemed unusually heavy. So Uncle Hat, there’s definitely something wrong with this coffin.”
"Open the coffin? Absolutely not." Zuo Chen's elder brother blocked the way in front of the coffin.
“If you forcefully open the coffin, it will be disrespectful to my mother.”
Seeing this nearly forty-year-old scoundrel still single, the villagers felt a pang of sympathy for the other men in hats.
These two brothers are both despicable.
"Since someone is maliciously obstructing the investigation, arrest them!"
The forensic doctor walked in, followed by several men wearing hats.
“Since everyone has doubts, we will stand here as witnesses and open the coffin for an autopsy. If there is no child's body inside, we will bear all the consequences. If, as these relatives and friends say, Yaya is inside, then this matter becomes serious.”
The two Zuo brothers were still shouting from the sidelines when, after the forensic doctor performed a series of rituals, he and his colleagues opened the coffin.
The coffin lid was slowly knocked open, and on top lay Ya Ya's grandmother.
Her face was covered by a white cloth. Judging from her figure, those people were right; she weighed only about 70 pounds.
The forensic doctor tapped on the wooden board beneath her, looking at everyone with a strange expression.
"There's a partition!"
They slowly moved the old lady out and placed her in the ice coffin. After going around the partition, Ya Ya's figure was revealed!
The despicable villain, fearing that the incident would be exposed under the child's body, actually left a plastic bag there.
The weather has been hot these past few days, and the child's body feels weak, as if he's asleep.
Qi Hong rushed forward, looked at the child's body, and burst into tears!
"wrong!"
Suddenly she stopped crying, pointed at the child's head, and said, "Brother, can you check if the child's head has been hit by anything heavy?"
Ah, after listening to what she said, the forensic doctor touched the child's head and unexpectedly felt a nail.
"What kind of vicious method is this? The child is gone, and they won't even let her rest in peace? They're even using those mindless dramas to put soul-locking nails on children."
The child had already passed away, and no blood flowed out when the forensic doctor pulled out the nail.
Faced with the facts, Zuo Chen panicked completely.
...
Early in the morning, Gu Yunxi boarded a plane for her return journey, and her package would be delivered that same day!
Unexpectedly, I met Mr. and Mrs. Qiu on the plane; the group sat next to each other.
She chatted with Che Li all the way, and it turned out that their ancestors were from Jiangcheng, which meant that they were also half Jiangcheng people.
I'm going back to take a look.
According to Che Li, the two are in their late thirties and have no children yet, but they have a good relationship.
The only regret is that despite earning so much money and consulting with renowned doctors, I still couldn't conceive.
Gu Yunxi had an idea. After returning home and telling her mother, she closed the door and went straight into her spatial dimension!
