Verhovinsky (27)

Mr. Fei may be carrying the secret of folk legends - the unique skill of "photography of flowers". He fooled Xiao Haiyang into the car in a few words. He got off the car without panic and bought a car with incense, and stuffed the crazy solid freshener into the roadside trash can.

Xiao Haiyang started thinking: "Don't I tell him the address? Isn't it enough to just navigate, why should I get on the car and be a human navigator?"

Until Fei Du finished his "important matter" in a picky manner, Xiao Glasses didn't figure out why, and he didn't even have time to untie the seat belt.

"Is it much better this time?" The berry fragrance spread out from the scented scent wrapped in white porcelain, like a gust of clear wind, washing the air in the car. Fei Du sighed, "I have been driving his car for a few days, and it's almost smoky to get a concussion."

Xiao Haiyang was not in the mood to discuss these little emotions with him, so he pushed his glasses quickly. He hesitated to the door: "You...you should know how to leave, Lao Jia put me at the nearest subway station entrance."

Fei Du looked at him in surprise: "Don't you want to go with me?"

Xiao Haiyang's voice was a little awkward: "I've been suspended."

"That's not right," Fei Du smiled. "You're suspended, I'm not a job. We are both ordinary citizens now. We go to visit a little girl in private, not to ask questions in the name of the police, nor do we have to notify our guardian."

Xiao Haiyang didn't say anything.

Fei Du shrugged, and indeed pulled the car to the side, parked at the entrance of a subway station, and said indifferently: "Okay, if you don't want to go, just get off the car. I'm in trouble today."

At the entrance of the subway, a small newsstand was standing on the back with a stall facing the sky and earth, and a pot of corn for sale was boiling on a low heat next to it. Xiao Haiyang pushed open a corner of the car door, and the cold wind immediately sealed a layer of white steam in his glasses. Fei Du did not try to keep it, and he turned on the on-board radio. The anchor with a crisp voice was focusing on social hot spots.

"So now, 'campus violence' has become one of the hot topics again. I wonder if you have ever experienced unknown sadness in school? A friend from the last phone number '0039' said: 'I went to elementary school forty years ago. Once, I was blocked by a few classmates in the class and called me a puppy and threw me into the river. The river water just formed a layer of small ice chips, which was biting cold. Since then, I have fallen into my legs.' - Well, it seems that this is a warm letter from an older friend. His classmates were really too much and I have been thinking about it for forty years..."

Xiao Haiyang retracted his step forward, closed the car door without saying a word, and sat on the passenger seat with a straight face.

.

Fei Du observed him and saw something quite interesting - Xiao Haiyang's body's center of gravity is always leaning forward, his shoulders and back are always tense, and the eyes behind the glasses are full of vigilance, as if he is ready to rush out to explode a bunker or something at any time.

Fei Du showed a smile at the corner of his eyes, re-shifted, and stepped on the accelerator.

"You may not hear yesterday. In fact, Xia Xiaonan explained some details of campus violence," Fei Du seemed to have leaked the secret to him without caring. Yu Guang saw Xiao Haiyang's concentration without saying a word. He continued, "We now suspect that there is sexual/aggression in this Yufen Middle School, but the relevant personnel involved, whether the perpetrator or the victim, are unwilling to admit it."

Xiao Haiyang opened his eyes slightly widened.

Fei Du stopped talking and changed his voice: "If it weren't for this, Wang Xiao would be just an ordinary student who participated in running away from home. You only went to her house once and could report the address accurately immediately. It was true that you would never forget it."

In fact, even if a person who truly remembers it, when asked about a small and not very important detail, he still needs to have time to recall and react. In addition to having a good memory, what he can blurt out must be something he is very familiar with.

This is Xiao Haiyang's habit. Every time he receives a new case, he will spend time sorting out the complicated information at the first time, thinking back and forth many times, so that he can have the function of a "click reader" and answer questions as soon as possible when others ask.

However, at this time, Xiao Haiyang just lowered his head slightly in a little cramped manner and had no explanation.

"To be honest, if ordinary people don't want to go, they can only report me an address. I won't come up immediately as soon as I get in the car, so you still want to go from the bottom of your heart, right? You're so naughty, but you're still worried about this case, otherwise you wouldn't have been suspended and then rushed to submit the inspection the next day - I wrote it all night?"

There was a pair of huge dark circles hanging under Xiao Haiyang's eyes, and he finally spoke: "It may be useless to hand over the examination."

The leak was attempted, and this matter could be either big or small, or it could be dismissed from public office directly. It depends on how the relevant person in charge was dealt with. Xiao Haiyang breathed out, looked out the window with water vapor, and grinned self-deprecatingly - even if Luo Wenzhou planned to raise it high and put it down gently, he might have been fainted by the unpleasant string of words under his impulse.

Fei Du suddenly asked, "What kind of person is Officer Gu?"

Xiao Haiyang didn't expect him to have this question. He hesitated for a moment, scraped his stomach, and fell into words, but he just said dry: "...I am a good person, a very good person."

Fei Du did not interrupt him.

"I don't know what he is pursuing. He is very big and looks ugly than anyone else. He doesn't even have a family. He just lives in a small and dilapidated house by himself. He doesn't have any motivation. Every time he pays some salary and bonuses and sends some to his mother, the rest seems to be subsidized to all kinds of people who have nothing to do with him. He can't spend a few dollars. I occasionally see his friends come to sit and scold him, saying that he has many informants and all kinds of people, and he doesn't often come to him to fight Qiufeng. He actually cares about them. Just like the whole Yancheng is covered by him... In fact, he is nothing, he has to ride a bicycle when he goes to work."

The book says, "The greatest hero is to serve the country and the people." But what kind of hero is Gu Zhao?

The poor man, the sour man, the bachelor man, or the jingling bicycle man?

Xiao Haiyang suddenly stopped talking and couldn't bear it and reached out to cover half of his face: "I'm not rushing to someone, I just think..."

"I feel like I can't do anything," Fei Du calmly answered his words. "When you need him, he stands up, and when he needs you, there's nothing you can do."

Somehow this sentence pierced into Xiao Haiyang's heart. His shoulders curled up. The shell of the "adult" who had been struggling for many years suddenly collapsed, revealing the little boy who was looking through the crack in the door in horror fourteen years ago.

"sorry……"

"Where are so many sorry?" Fei Du didn't go to pick up his ups and downs, and a cold sentence brought Xiao Haiyang back to reality. "Do you really don't know what Team Luo meant to hide what you did?"

Xiao Haiyang first looked at him blankly, and after a moment, he suddenly realized and almost jumped out of his seat: "He...ah...that..."

Fei Du bent the corner of his eyes and stopped the car smoothly: "Here, Wang Xiao's family should be here, right?"

Wang Xiao's home is in the old city, and it is a dormitory building in his early years. It is said that he has no property rights to this day. There is a paralyzed old lady sitting in a wheelchair basking in the sun. The untimely domestic garbage next to her has already been collected.

If the family has a little condition and even if the loan is removed, the rest are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled. From the building to the people, the whole body is full of lifeless cramps. When the dormitory-like building walks into a long corridor, the lighting is poor, and as soon as you enter, it makes people look dark. The cage-like cottage lined up along the sides of the corridor, and there are more than twenty households on one floor. The dense pattern reminds people of the chicken coops.

Fei Du carefully walked around the ground with a pool of unknown liquid: "They don't live here, right?"

Xiao Haiyang replied in a conditioned reflexive manner: "Wang Xiao's parents both have formal jobs and work in a bus company. Their income is actually good. They are not idle after get off work. They can help others with work and earn pocket money. However, for her to study abroad in the future, she will not be willing to spend a penny for so many years."

Fei Du asked casually: "Why do you have to study abroad?"

"It is said that she was a little unable to keep up when she was in junior high school. The school teacher suggested that parents consider asking her to give up her ordinary high school and learn a skill at the technical school. The parents stopped doing it when they heard it. They couldn't accept the child and still followed their old path. They insisted on pursuing high education like crazy. After making a fuss with the teacher, they didn't know where to find out where to find out about the International Department of Yufen, and spent all the down payments they had originally planned to buy a house before transferring her over."

Fei Du glanced at him.

Xiao Haiyang hurriedly avoided his gaze: "Interrogate the background investigation that female teacher Yufen did before - 204, Wang Xiao's family."

As Xiao Haiyang said, Wang Xiao's parents were willing to waste any time. After leaving the city bureau, they probably went straight to the construction site. The parents were like two donkeys, running forward in a dark and dark way every day. The children were a doll tied to the donkey's tail, and were dragged by them, rolling and rolling towards the bright future without knowing the pain.

Fei Du reached out and knocked on the door.

After a while, the "cat-eye" camera on the door went dark a little. It was probably someone who looked out carefully behind the door, but there was no movement.

"Wang Xiao?" Fei Du spoke very naturally, as if there was no door panel in front of him, but a living girl. "We came from the municipal bureau. You should remember this officer Xiao, right?"

There was no movement in the room, but the dark shadow in the center of the "Cat Eyes Small Glass" was still there, and the girl should be behind the door.

Fei Du: "Is it okay to talk to you?"

Wang Xiao still didn't sound.

Xiao Haiyang was the one who knew how to deal with this situation the most and looked at Fei Du with some worries.

Fei Du was not surprised: "I know you have something to say in your heart."

After waiting for a while, I heard a "click".

However, before the crack of the door could be pushed open, Fei Du grabbed the door handle from outside and closed the door to open tightly.

"Don't open the door," Fei Du said, taking out a pen from his coat's pocket, and took off an advertising leaflet inserted in the door, wrote his phone number on it, and stuffed it in from the crack of the door. "Have you ever taught you not to open the door for strangers when you are alone at home? How unsafe - this is my phone number. Officer Xiao and I will go to your backyard to wait. You can see us through the window. If you want to talk, just call this number. Is it OK?"

Half of the flyer with the phone written on it was stuffed into the house and half exposed. After a while, the paper was slowly pulled in.

Fei Du then handed Xiao Haiyang a look and walked out. Xiao Haiyang hurriedly followed and ran outside. Only then did Xiao Haiyang couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Why don't you let her open the door?"

"Two basically strange men knock on the door. No matter how big the little girl is, she will hesitate before opening the door. Not to mention a girl like Wang Xiao, she can't let us in. There must be an anti-theft chain in the room." Fei Du was swept away by the cold wind outside the building, and immediately shivered, wrapping up the scarf that was loose and hanging around his neck three layers. "I guess she wanted to send us away through the crack of the door."

Xiao Haiyang still didn't understand - what's the difference between talking through the crack of the door and making phone calls through the window? After all, the corridor is still relatively warm.

"The sound is raised in the corridor, and the residents are so dense. I don't know how many ears the partition walls are. Wang Xiao is in a state of nervous stress and can't say anything. He gives her the phone, and the initiative is also her - and their family has anti-theft windows. Looking out of the window, the house itself will increase her sense of security. The doors entering and leaving every day do not have this psychological suggestion."

When Fei Du's pause of every punctuation mark, Xiao Haiyang would nod like the primary school student who listened carefully. He had completely forgotten that not long ago, when Fei Du held the message he had sent a phone call, he even scolded the man for being shameless.

The two of them arrived at the rarely visited backyard. When they were about thirty or forty meters away from the small building, Fei Du stood there and no longer approaching. Sure enough, it wasn't long before Fei Du's phone rang.

Fei Du looked up and saw that there were curtains on the back window of 204. There were some unnatural wrinkles on one corner of the thick curtain. It was obvious that someone was hiding behind and lifted the curtain a little and peeking out. He connected a pair of headphones on his phone to Xiao Haiyang one by one.

"Hey..." The girl's hoarse voice came through the headphone cable. Although she was still tense, she spoke at least actively. "My parents have already been to the city bureau in the morning."

"We've seen it," said Fei Du, "but I still hope to talk to you."

"I... I have nothing to say," Wang Xiao said softly, "I have answered everything I should answer. I don't know anything else. You can leave if you have nothing else."

Fei Du said that the phone could relieve Wang Xiao's nervousness, but it aggravated Xiao Haiyang's nervousness. He was almost forced to get out of the phone phobia. He always felt that he didn't breathe well, and the other party might have hung up the phone, and he wouldn't even have a chance to rob the phone.

Fei Du did not ask her key questions in a blunt way, and only said: "Do you know that Xia Xiaonan was selected as the 'deer' this year. If she didn't run away, she would be bullied for some time in the future?"

"…I know, Feng Bin said."

Fei Du: "Do you have a good relationship with Feng Bin and Xia Xiaonan? Are you friends?"

"No," Wang Xiao was silent for a while before saying, "I just said a few words to Xia Xiaonan. The relationship is average and Feng Bin is not familiar with it. I am very withdrawn at school, not likable, and have no friends."

Fei Du raised his head slightly and smiled at the closed window of 204: "Since the relationship is average, why would he run away with them this time? If Xia Xiaonan takes your place, those who bully you will transfer your interest to her in the future, and your life will be much better. Why didn't you tell others when you learned that they were going to run away?"

Wang Xiao suddenly stopped saying a word, but to Xiao Haiyang's surprise, she did not hang up the phone.

Fei Du let out a breath and said slowly: "Sometimes, people's thoughts are not free, because external objects try to shape you all the time. They force you to accept mainstream aesthetics and the views of the people with the greatest voices - even if it is illogical, inconsistent with human nature, it is completely contrary to your interests."

Wang Xiao took a breath, as if he was crying.

"But as long as you have a breath, you will always try to make a faint sound," Fei Du stared at the curtains of 204, as if it was the girl's face. "Before, she told you to follow Feng Bin and the others, try to resist, and try to protect a classmate who actually has no relationship with you. Now? Does she want the bad guys to pay the price?"

"Wang Xiao," Fei Du whispered, "When they locked you outside the dormitory building, were you forced to go to the boy's dormitory? Has anyone ever hurt you?"

Xiao Haiyang's heart was raised to his throat.

It took a long time before the girl on the other end of the phone made a faint sound.

She said: "...no."

Xiao Haiyang's heart was suddenly broken, causing his heart and lungs to hurt. Fei Du sighed silently and lowered his eyes.

"I...I..." Wang Xiao couldn't breathe when he choked up, "No, but I've heard of that person..."

Fei Du was stunned and asked quickly: "Which one?"
