C83 (1/2)
I asked Ye Xiaolou: ”Where is the village you mentioned? I want to take a look! ”
”No way!” Ye Xiaolou immediately shook her head like a rattle drum, and said: ”That place is very sealed, outsiders are not allowed to enter, they are very xenophobic!”
”Exclusive?” Although there are a lot of backward places in China, but it's rare to see xenophobic places. I asked her, ”xenophobic? What kind of society was this? Furthermore, I heard that the minority nationalities have all moved towards tourism. How could there be such a place? ”
”Heh …” Ye Xiaolou placed her hands behind her back, she raised her head and sighed, then said to the two of us: ”Wasn't it all caused by the red revolution back then, and the Gu techniques were also divided into the black five categories, many kind people in the village were forced to die because of that movement, those old people who survived, their memories still remain at that time, tell me, how can they not be xenophobic?”
”Err …” At that time, I was somewhat speechless. As a red disciple, I was very familiar with that ridiculous history. I even had a better understanding of it than those commoners. My grandfather had also been beaten into the right wing of the school. Although he had been reversed afterwards, his mental injury had accompanied him throughout his life. Sometimes, the old man would even lie in bed and blabber, ”I've done so much for this country. Why are you doing this to me?”
History has become a thing of the past. Think about it, no matter how absurd things are, they will be covered by the dust of history. We should look forward. Perhaps our country has treated the elderly badly, perhaps the local government officials have shown little care for them, but these can be changed, I do not believe that the human heart can be rock solid, as long as there is love, everything can be changed.
I said to Ye Xiaolou: ”Help me contact him. I'll try my best, okay?”
Although Ye Xiaolou was slightly unwilling, she still nodded her head and said: ”I'll try my best, but I won't be able to go there today. There are mountain roads over there, and I have to walk for a long time.
After all, having hope was better than having none. I smiled towards Ye Xiaolou to express my gratitude. At this moment, the spider is still lying on top of the small cauldron. Although I can't see its expression nor understand its thoughts, I can tell from its state of mind that it must be enjoying itself.
Liao Mengfann bent down and looked at the small cauldron curiously. After looking at it for a while, she shook her head helplessly and waved at Ye Xiaolou, pointing at the small cauldron, ”Lou, go back and help us analyze the ingredients in this small cauldron. It's very important!”
”No problem!” Ye Xiaolou looked at Liao Mengfann's face while smiling. She stretched out her finger and made a ”V” shape, looking very cute.
A moment later, a colleague from the Public Security Bureau came into the room with a large packing case. The big spider was directly placed into the packing case by a staff member wearing an explosion-proof vest. Before the staff left, I specifically warned them that this spider was very important and that they should not get mixed up with other spiders. For safety's sake, Liao Mengfann made Ye Xiaolou specifically ask the staff to immediately rush back to the police station and check the small cauldron at the first possible moment.
Ye Xiaolou listened to everything Liao Mengfann said, and eagerly she led her colleagues away from Lee Jingyao's house. After everyone had left, I pulled Liao Mengfann back, and said to her: ”This girl is a bit strange, do you believe her?”
Liao Mengfann walked to the edge of the balcony. She looked out the window and said to me, ”I believe her!” Just then, Liao Mengfann turned around and smiled sweetly at me, ”Just like how I trust you!”
The southern part of May was extremely hot. A cool breeze passed through the window on the balcony and brushed past Liao Mengfann's hair. Her black hair rose up like ripples in the water as the gentle breeze blew it into the air. The irritable feelings in my heart were also gradually quelled by the beautiful scene before me. A burst of dazzling light followed the warmth of the sun as it shot through the window. However, I was suddenly startled!
I forcefully endured the numbness on my right leg and arm as I walked towards the balcony window to look ahead. Just as Liao Mengfann turned around, I saw a strong reflection of light in the dazzling sunlight.
Building 22 was the main building. At this moment, it was already 2: 30 in the afternoon. The sun's trajectory in the sky was slightly to the southwest, so even if sunlight shone in, it wouldn't be so dazzling. And most importantly, as a police officer, I am very familiar with that blinding light. It is the reflection of the telescope lens!
At this moment, I couldn't stop thinking about the angle that the ray of light came from. Looking at the building in front of me, I realised that there was a tall building sitting on the other side of the artificial river about 100 meters away from Building 22. One of the windows on that building was exactly opposite to the balcony of Building 22. My eyes followed the rooftop all the way down, and soon, on the 23rd floor opposite, I saw a curtained window.
”Someone is peeping!” I pointed to the window in front of us for Liao Mengfann to see, she nodded her head, ”Let's go and take a look!”
As I was speaking, Liao Mengfann extended her right hand towards me. I had some doubts, but she said to me: ”Your legs are not nimble right now, let me support you!”
