Grocery Store No.514 - Chapter 183
The next morning, Ling Huaan got up to make breakfast, and Jiang Chengyan got up too. As soon as the two arrived in the kitchen, they saw the three little dogs busy, Xiaohu scrambled eggs, and Niuniu was washing vegetables , Little Wolf is cleaning the stove with a rag.
Niuniu turned to look at Ling Huaan, smiled and said, “Uncle, breakfast will be ready soon.”
Ling Huaan felt sour in his heart. Through them, he seemed to see his childhood self. He stepped forward and took the shovel in Xiaohu’s hand and said, “You guys go out and wait, and leave it to uncle here.”
Xiaohu looked a little uneasy and said, “Uncle, what we can do is in the milk… We cook in that yard, uncle let us do it.”
Ling Huaan patted their heads and said softly, “You don’t need to do this at your uncle’s house. Now you can just go to the restaurant and wait, or watch TV for a while.”
Jiang Chengyan took the dishes from Niuniu and said, “Is it Niuniu? Leave it to my uncle. You can go out and wait for a while, and you can eat right away.”
“But…” The three boys just looked at each other, and no one moved. Yu Xi is in the middle.
Ling Huaan said helplessly, “Team Jiang, I’ll take you out for breakfast.”
“Okay, you go.”
Ling Huaan took the three little dogs out of the kitchen, placed them in the dining room, took out a small bag of peanuts from the refrigerator, took another bowl, put it on the dining room table, and said: ” The three of you peeled these peanuts before breakfast was done, understand?”
“I understand.” San Xiaozi responded hurriedly, looking like he was relieved.
Ling Huaan returned to the kitchen and helped Jiang Chengyan prepare breakfast. The original two people became five people, and the three little ones had a lot of food. In order to make them full, the two of them did a lot of work. few. When the food was on the table, the three little ones had already peeled the peanuts, wiped the table and swept the floor, and were obediently waiting at the table.
“Wash your hands, let’s eat.”
“Uncle, we have finished washing.” Niuniu spread her palms with a smile.
“Okay, then let’s eat. There’s no cheating in my uncle’s house. If you’re full, you’re full. If you’re not full, you’re not full. You can’t lie, you know?”
“I know.” The three little ones nodded obediently, and when they saw Ling Huaan pick up the chopsticks, they picked up the chopsticks and looked at them, their obedience was distressing.
Jiang Chengyan’s heart was pantothenic acid, he put a fritter for each of them, and said, “Eat it.”
After a quiet meal, the third child just wanted to wash the dishes, but was stopped by Ling Huaan and said, “You three are responsible for cleaning the table and sweeping the floor, and Uncle Jiang and I are going to wash the dishes, Let’s divide the labor and cooperate to see who cleans up, and whoever wins will have chocolate, okay?”
“Okay!” Niuniu’s smiling eyes curved into crescents.
In the kitchen, Ling Huaan looked at the three little ones who were busy outside, sighed and said, “Team Jiang, let Su Ke come over later to collect their DNA samples, I suspect them It was also abducted.”
Seeing Jiang Chengyan hurried out the door, Ling Huaan was a little puzzled, but he didn’t think much, and then packed up the tableware.
Jiang Chengyan picked up the phone, dialed Yao Min directly, and said, “Yao Min, send me a picture of the little girl you drew yesterday.”
“Captain, when I went to the technical investigation department yesterday, they were already off work, and the photos have not yet been synthesized.”
“I want your portrait, send it to me now.”
“Okay, I’ll send it to you right away.”
After a while, Jiang Chengyan received the portrait, he looked carefully, his eyes brightened, he hurried out of the bedroom to the dining room, looking at Niuniu, who had the same imagination as the portrait, he couldn’t help but rejoice Ruo Kuang, “Hua An, Hua An, come out.”
Ling Huaan heard the voice, wiped his hands, walked out of the kitchen, and said strangely, “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Chengyan handed the portrait to Ling Huaan and said, “Huaan, do you think the little girl in this painting looks like Niuniu?”
No need to compare, Ling Huaan could see at a glance that it was Niuniu in the portrait.
“Where did this come from?”
“According to Liu Xiaohan’s kindergarten teacher’s recollection, the man who took Liu Xiaohan away that day was accompanied by a little girl. This is a portrait drawn by Yao Min based on the teacher’s dictation.”
Ling Huaan looked at Niuniu, and before he could speak, he heard a commotion outside, he frowned slightly, and was about to open the door, but was stopped by Jiang Chengyan and said, “I’ll open it.”
Jiang Chengyan came to the door, called the door, looked at Yang Xiaolan outside the door a little surprised, and said, “Ms. Yang.”
Yang Xiaolan was startled when she saw Jiang Chengyan, and said, “Officer Jiang, why are you here?”
Liu Ling said with a bitter face: “Team Jiang, when I just came to work, she entered the door and had to cry and call for the boss, but I couldn’t stop her.”
“Go and do it, I’ll handle it.” Jiang Chengyan stepped aside and said, “Ms. Yang, come in.”
Yang Xiaolan entered the door in a trance, and when she saw Ling Huaan, her emotions began to get excited again, and she rushed over without saying a word, crying, “You give my daughter, give me back daughter!”
Seeing this, Jiang Chengyan quickly stopped her and said, “Ms. Yang, I’m calm.”
“Calm, how can you calm me down, my daughter died, she died so tragically, how can you calm me down!” Yang Xiaolan looked at Ling Huaan with hatred and swollen eyes, and said, “It’s him , my daughter’s death must have something to do with him, that beast… that beast asked me to deliver the package to him, if it wasn’t for him, my daughter would not have died. You return my daughter, return my daughter! “
In the morning, Yang Xiaolan, who was in a trance, suddenly received a package. After opening it, it was empty. She suddenly remembered that the murderer had taken Liu Xiaohan’s life and threatened her to deliver the package to Ling Huaan, so she came to the door to make trouble. .
“Yang Xiaolan, calm down, the murderer was not him, your daughter was not killed by him!”
“Even if he didn’t kill him, he has nothing to do with him. Otherwise, how could the murderer ask me to send him a package, my Hanhan, my poor Hanhan…”
Seeing the three little animals hide behind him uneasy, Ling Hua reassured and said, “It’s all right, you go back to the room first, and uncle will take care of it. Xiaohu, take your younger brother and sister back to the room.”
Xiaohu took the two back to the room. Before entering the room, Niuniu turned her head and hesitated. When Ling Huaan saw it, he knew something. He looked at Yang Xiaolan and said calmly, “Do you want to see your daughter?”
Yang Xiaolan’s cry stopped, and then she said angrily: “My daughter is dead, you killed her, I want you to accompany her!”
Ling Huaan sighed and said, “Your daughter’s death does have something to do with me, so I will try my best to help her.”
Yang Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then grabbed Jiang Chengyan’s clothes excitedly, and said loudly, “Officer, did you hear? He admitted that he killed my daughter, grab him quickly, Catch him!”
“Yang Xiaolan, that’s not what he meant, you misunderstood.”
Yang Xiaolan pushed Jiang Chengyan away and asked, “Why are you here? You are a group, and you want to protect him.”
“Yang Xiaolan, I can understand your daughter’s tragic death and sadness, but you can’t slander others just because you want to shirk responsibility. Don’t forget, if it wasn’t because you played mahjong…”
Ling Huaan interrupted Jiang Chengyan and said, “Team Jiang, that’s enough.”
Ling Huaan sighed and said, “Yang Xiaolan, I can let you see the ghost of your daughter, do you want to see it?”
Yang Xiaolan looked at Ling Huaan blankly and said, “What do you mean?”
Ling Huaan didn’t explain too much, but handed the cow’s tears to Yang Xiaolan and said, “You can see your daughter’s ghost as long as you put a drop on your eyelids.”
Yang Xiaolan stared blankly at the thing in Ling Hua’an’s hand, and immediately reacted, and without hesitation, put a drop on her eyelids. As long as she can see her daughter, she is willing to pay any price. She opened her eyes cautiously, and the first thing she saw was a pair of feet, with a circle of bruises on the ankles, then a yellow dress, and then the face she was thinking about day and night.
“Hanhan!” Yang Xiaolan rushed over and wanted to hug Liu Xiaohan, but went straight through her body.
Ling Huaan explained: “She is in the state of a ghost now, so you can’t touch her.”
“Mom…” Liu Xiaohan whispered, although her memory was vague, but the intimacy from her heart still made her believe that Yang Xiaolan was her mother.
“Hanhan…” A ‘mother’ made Yang Xiaolan cry again.
“Mom doesn’t cry…” Seeing Yang Xiaolan sad, Liu Xiaohan also wanted to cry, but couldn’t cry.
“Hanhan, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, my mother is sorry for you, it’s all my mother’s fault…” Yang Xiaolan knelt down in front of Liu Xiaohan, unable to cry herself.
Liu Xiaohan stretched out her finger and wanted to wipe away Yang Xiaolan’s tears, but she couldn’t touch her at all, she quickly put her hand behind her, and said comfortingly: “Mom doesn’t cry, uncle said that as long as Hanhan is well behaved, If I can help Hanhan be reincarnated, I can have a new life, so don’t be sad, mother.”
“Uncle?” Yang Xiaolan looked at Ling Huaan and asked blankly, “Is it true? Can Hanhan really be reincarnated?”
Ling Huaan nodded and said, “As long as the grievances in her body are purified, she will have a chance to be reincarnated.”
“So Hanhan will always be by your side until she is reincarnated, right?”
“Yes.” Ling Huaan understood what Yang Xiaolan wanted to say, and stopped her: “Humans and ghosts have different paths, the resentment and yin in her body are harmful to mortals, I will put her in the magic weapon, So I can’t grant your request.”
Yang Xiaolan’s eyes flashed with disappointment, and then she pleaded: “It’s okay, Mr. Ling, I can work, I can work in a grocery store, no salary, I just want to be close to her, okay? ?”
Let go and have your own life.”
“Mr. Ling, Hanhan is my life. His father is on business trips all the year round. Sir, please, please let me stay by her side, otherwise I really don’t know what’s the point of living.”
“Uncle, I miss mom…” Liu Xiaohan also looked at Ling Huaan eagerly.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengyan felt unhappy and said, “Huaan, just let her stay in the grocery store.”
Ling Huaan sighed and said, “Okay, I’ll hang the bell at the door, stay wherever you want.”
“Thank you, Mr. Ling, thank you!”
“I temporarily covered her resentment, you mother and daughter have a good chat.”
Ling Huaan took Jiang Chengyan into the guest room, leaving the mother and daughter to talk in the living room.
Ling Huaan walked to Niuniu, touched her hair, and said, “Is there anything you want to tell me?”
Nuniu’s big eyes filled with unease, she grabbed Ling Huaan’s clothes tightly with both hands, and said tearfully, “Uncle, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
Ling Huaan took out a tissue to wipe Niuniu, and said, “As long as you tell the truth to your uncle, you will still be a good boy.”
Niuniu struggled for a while, then lowered her head and said, “Uncle, I know Hanhan.”
“You recognized her when you saw her yesterday, right?”
Niuniu nodded and said, “Well, I can see her.”
Ling Huaan was startled, then asked, “When did you see ghosts?”
“I can see it all the time, in the village, in the woods, everywhere.” Niuniu said this without the slightest fear in her eyes, indicating that she was used to it.
Ling Huaan understands that Niuniu’s eyes are rare yin and yang eyes, and she is born with the ability to see things that others cannot.
“You said you knew her, how did you know her?”
Ling Hua An calmly held her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid, it’s over, uncle will protect you.”
Niuniu’s eyes were flushed and pea-big tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She said guiltily, “Uncle, I’m sorry, I lied to her, I’m sorry, I killed her.”
Ling Huaan touched her head and said, “Since you know you have made a mistake, you should make it up in time. Now you tell us everything you know, you are making up for the mistake, so that your The mind can also be at peace, understand?”
Niuniu looked up at Ling Huaan and said, “Uncle, can I have a chocolate?”
Ling Huaan was stunned for a moment, then took out the chocolate from the glass bottle on the table, handed one to Niuniu, took out two and handed them to Xiaohu and Xiaolang, and said, “Eat it. “
Niuniu took the chocolate, peeled off the foil and put it in her mouth, maybe the sweetness of the chocolate calmed her nervousness and made her look much more relaxed.
“The uncle went to see grandma that day, and grandma told us to stay in the yard, not allowed to approach the house, we dared not approach, do not know what they said. Later, grandma came out and let me go, I Although I was afraid, I didn’t dare to resist, so I entered the house. The uncle waved to me, I was very scared, I knew that the uncle was going to beat me again, and…and…do some terrible things.” Niuniu’s face showed fear again , apparently caught in a terrible memory.
Ling Huaan reached out and embraced Niuniu, but was pushed away subconsciously, “Don’t touch me!”
In addition to fear, there was hatred and disgust in her bright eyes, Ling Huaan was trembling when she saw it. When she came back to her senses, she looked at Ling Huaan and hurriedly said, “Uncle, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it, I’m sorry…”
“It’s okay. Niuniu, it’s okay, uncle will protect you, and those bad guys won’t hurt you again.”
Niuniu clutched Ling Hua’an’s clothes tightly, tears fell down her cheeks, and she choked up and asked, “Uncle, why did uncle treat us like that? I feel so bad every time. It hurts, woohoo…”
The little tiger and the little wolf on the side also had red eyes, thinking of their past experiences, their bodies even began to tremble.
Although Niuniu didn’t understand, but from their expressions, Ling Huaan fully understood that these three children were also poisoned by that beast, and Liu Xiaohan was just one of the victims. He gently embraced them and comforted them carefully. The psychological trauma of these three children far exceeded his expectations. I am afraid that if one fails, it will be a shadow for a lifetime.
Jiang Chengyan sat and listened, and he was not happy. After so many years of criminal investigation, he still couldn’t understand, why there are so many ugly people in this world? They do all kinds of evil, are mentally ill, don’t treat people like people, and don’t even realize how crazy what they’re doing. After a long time, Niuniu gradually regained her composure, and Ling Huaan asked at the right time, “Where does that uncle live? What does he look like, and how can we find him?”
“He lives in our village. I followed him secretly once. The last house in the last alley at the west end of the village is the courtyard in the west.”
“Then what are the characteristics of his appearance that can be recognized at a glance?”
“He has a scar under his nose and six fingers on his left hand.”
Ling Huaan and Jiang Chengyan looked at each other, then asked, “Then why does Liu Xiaohan follow the uncle?”
“It’s because of me.” Niuniu lowered her head guiltily and said: “Uncle treated me like that, I was too scared, so I begged him not to hit me again. Uncle said, if I can lie to another one When the child came back, he would not hit me. Hanhan and her mother came to Xiaohuzhuang to visit relatives that day, and happened to be met by the uncle. The uncle called me over that day, just to want me to lie to Hanhan, and he took me to Hanhan’s relatives Playing outside the house, Hanhan also came out when she heard the movement and had a good time with me. She called my sister and gave me candy. But just when the uncle was about to start, her mother suddenly appeared and put Hanhan I took it home. The uncle didn’t give up, so he inquired about Hanhan’s address and took me to the city to find her, but Hanhan had to go to kindergarten during the day and was picked up by her mother after school, so we had no chance to start. Until that day , Uncle saw that no one came to pick up Hanhan, so he asked me to call her and deceive her. I called her name, and Hanhan ran over when he saw that it was me, and the uncle lied to Hanhan and said that if the teacher later Ask him who he is, and if Hanhan answers her father, she will buy her a hamburger. Hanhan is fooled, her teacher chases her and asks who her uncle is, she says it’s her father, and then Hanhan follows us. “
“So the uncle killed Hanhan, right?”
“The uncle brought Hanhan home, Hanhan cried to find her mother, and then the uncle started to beat her, she cried even more, kept calling ‘mother’ and ‘sister’ ‘, I hid outside the door, I knew she saw me, but I didn’t dare to move, I was afraid the uncle would hit me.” Niuniu started to sob again, crying and said: “In the end, Hanhan was dragged by the uncle’s foot and dragged by the uncle. I went to the cage in the utility room and threw her there. I secretly ran over to see her, she was bleeding a lot, I was scared and didn’t know what to do, she took my hand and said: ‘Sister , I want to go home, I want mom’, I know she’s dying, just like those little friends, I don’t want her to die, so I stole milk for her to drink while grandma was asleep, but as soon as she drank it, she She vomited again, and she also vomited blood. I thought I was very scared, so I ran back. The next day I secretly went to find her and found that she was not dead. I was very happy, but she died in the end. , it’s my fault, it’s me who killed her. Uncle, I’m also a badass, and I’m also a badass…”
Ling Huaan didn’t know how to comfort her after hearing this. She just patted her on the back. No matter what her original intention was, whether she killed Liu Xiaohan in the end, the cause and effect between her and Liu Xiaohan has been planted, and what should be repaid is still to be repaid.
Jiang Chengyan opened the door and looked at Yang Xiaolan’s mother and daughter, and asked, “Huaan, what are you going to do?”
“Tell the truth.” Ling Huaan sighed and said, “The conclusion of a matter is never to escape, but to face it.”
Jiang Chengyan looked at Niuniu and said, “But she’s still a child.”
“A child’s mistake is also a mistake. You can’t easily forgive her because of her age. This will not benefit her future growth.”
Jiang Chengyan was startled, and said with relief, “Huan, you’re right, I’m the one who got the point.”
Ling Huaan squatted down, looked directly at Niuniu, and said, “Niuniu, are you willing to tell Liu Xiaohan and her mother the truth?”
Niuniu looked at Ling Huaan uneasily and said, “Uncle, I’m afraid…”
“Niuniu, if you make a mistake, you must be brave enough to take it, so that you can gain inner peace, otherwise you will carry the mistakes you have made for the rest of your life.”
Niuniu’s big eyes flashed with tears, and she said, “Uncle, I’m not afraid of aunt hitting me, I’m afraid…I’m afraid that my aunt won’t forgive me.”
“Niuniu, if you do something wrong, you must bear the consequences. Whether your aunt is willing to forgive you or not, don’t hold any resentment in your heart. After all, Liu Xiaohan’s death is related to you, understand?”
“Well, I’m sorry for Hanhan. Uncle, I am willing to tell aunt the truth.” There was still anxiety in her eyes, but Niuniu chose to face it.
“Good boy!” Ling Huaan gently stroked Niuniu’s hair and said, “You only need to say how you lied to Hanhan, don’t say anything else about ghosts, you know?”
“Why?” Niuniu’s tearful eyes were filled with confusion.
“You don’t need to understand this, just remember what your uncle said.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to Uncle.”
Ling Huaan pushed open the bedroom door, took Niuniu’s hand and walked out.
“It’s you? Uncle, why is she here?” When Liu Xiaohan saw Niuniu, she felt uncomfortable and frowned.
“She was also a victim and was rescued by me.” Ling Huaan paused and said, “Ms. Yang, Hanhan, there is something Niuniu wants to tell you.”
Yang Xiaolan wiped her tears, looked at Niuniu suspiciously, and said, “Mr. Ling, what happened? Who is this little girl?”
“She is the victim I rescued from Huzhuang.” Ling Huaan squeezed Niuniu’s little hand and said encouragingly, “Niuniu, come and talk to Aunt Yang.”
Niuniu looked timidly at Yang Xiaolan, then at Liu Xiaohan, and hesitantly repeated what she just said.
Yang Xiaolan was stunned when she heard this, and the tears she had just wiped came out again.
Liu Xiaohan seemed to recall what happened before, her blood-red eyes widened, two lines of blood and tears flowed out, looking at Niuniu with hatred, and said, “Uncle, she is a bad person, she is a bad person She lied to me, she killed me!”
Seeing the resentment surging on Liu Xiaohan’s body, Ling Huaan frowned, silently reciting the incantation, pinching her fingers, and imprinting it on Liu Xiaohan’s eyebrows, saying: “Liu Xiaohan, control your emotions, or you will be punished by Controlled by grievances and murders, there is no chance of reincarnation.”
“She lied to me, she lied to me! Uncle, she is damned, damned!”
Liu Xiaohan’s resentment soared, her tangled hair kept flying along with her resentment, and her blood-red eyes looked at Niuniu coldly.
I want to save you, woohoo, sorry…”
Xiaohu and Xiaolang protect Niuniu side by side. Although they can’t see the ghost, they can understand what’s going on. No matter what happens, they must protect Niuniu.
“Liu Xiaohan, if you don’t stop, I’ll hit you.”
Without waiting for Ling Huaan to act, Yang Xiaolan protected Liu Xiaohan and said, “Mr. Ling, don’t hit her, please don’t hit her.”
