strange village

The layout of Xiao Yiran's house is nothing new, and it's not too different from theirs, but the colors and patterns of the bedding in the back room are extremely flamboyant, and it must not have been arranged by the Chu family.

"The color of your room is quite bright, it looks bright." Dongyue looked at the furnishings in the room.

"You have good eyesight, these few don't know how to appreciate them, saying that my place is more fancy than the girl's house, ah yes...you are..." It seemed that Xiao Yiran hadn't remembered Dongyue's name.

"I've seen it before. I'm Dongyue. Excuse me."

"Come, sit!"

He greeted Dongyue Zhuyao and the two children to come in and sit on the sofa, and then said: "I recognize the bed, the pillow, and the sheets when I sleep, but it's impossible to move the bed around. , that's all I can do, I just like bright colors, black and black are outrageous."

Chang Ziran rolled his eyes aside: "Be smart!"

It seems that with Xiao Yiran's habit, he not only wears red and green, but also pays more attention to this residence, but most creatures in nature are more exaggerated and beautiful in male than female, why can't human beings be like this.

Dongyue smiled and nodded to express her understanding.

"Hey, brother, you said that we have been here for so many days, and there is no clue about this matter, so you won't keep us locked up like this?"

"Where are you talking?"

"This is impossible. The family still has business. If you don't go back in a few days, someone will be sent to look for it. I don't believe that people will not be released at that time."

"I don't think this matter will be settled for a while. After the funeral is over, there will be happy events. Even if it's not blatant to do it together, it should be settled."

"That's right, don't forget what we are here for, the task has not been completed yet."

"No, I have to go to Ah Qing later. It's fine if I don't hear from you for a while. It's been so many days and I haven't seen anyone. It's boring to stay here."

Dongyue said in her heart, I really didn't see it, I think the four of you had a good time, it was even more beautiful than going to Disney.

"I don't know when I can see Miss Axuan again." Xiao Yiran sighed, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

"You and Miss Chu Xuan have met before? Dongyue said.

Xiao Yiran straightened his clothes, and said: "Our Xiao family and Chu family are old friends. I used to come here when I was a teenager, and I knew them as brothers and sisters at that time. But it's really a girl's change. It doesn't look like much anymore."

Dongyue wondered: "Aren't they twins who grew up together? Could it be that one has changed and the other hasn't changed?"

"It's not about her appearance. It should be said that she feels different. She used to be not as cheerful as she is now. She rarely talks. When people talk to her, she can hardly answer. There is such a problem with this kind of problem." What's the name? Autism? Aphasia?"

Xiao Yiran nodded, and said: "That's about it. At that time, it was said that it was because of the parents. Children are more fragile, so she couldn't accept it."

"Is Ah Qing okay?" Dongyue asked again.

"Ah Qing has always been like that. Although she has been sad for a long time, her personality has not changed, but why the death of her parents has a particularly great impact on Ah Xuan." Xiao Yiran said.

"The girl's mind is delicate and sensitive, maybe it's because the daughter is closer to her parents. The daughter is a caring little padded jacket." Dongyue said.

"There are also people who say that, girl, the jewel in the palm of my parents, I'm afraid of melting in my mouth, and I'm afraid of falling if I hold it in my hands. " Xiao Yiran sighed.

"But Ah Qing is all right?" Dongyue said again.

"The psychological state is quite mysterious. The same thing happens to different people at the same time. These people may have countless different opinions. Even if they are twins, they cannot all be the same. Temperament and temperament are different. It's time to grow up." Although Xiao Yiran couldn't explain why, he still had his own theory.

Thinking about it, it does make sense.

"Then how did Miss Axuan become cheerful again?"

"I can't say that you are cheerful, but you can talk a lot, but I think it's pretty good now, generous, neither humble nor overbearing. Where can I find another one with such a character?" Xiao Yiran seemed to be very fond of Chu Xuan. Admiration is appreciation inside and outside the words.

As soon as he said it, Chu Xuan's face on that day also appeared in Dongyue's mind, and the corners of her mouth could not help but rise a little.

"Miss Chu Xuan naturally said that she has no appearance or demeanor, but a person's character grows little by little, but according to what you say, her personality has changed a lot. Is there no reason for this? ? You outsiders already know about this, so why don’t you say anything?”

"Brother Ah Yue, how can I be considered an outsider? They don't know, I know, let me tell you, Ah Xuan has been well-behaved since she was a child, but she rarely talks. If you want to talk about personality changes, it should be when she was thirteen or fourteen. Come on, it's like a different person all of a sudden."

Hua Peacock leaned over while talking, and stretched out his arms to hug Dongyue lightly, which seemed very intimate.

Dongyue: "Thirteen or fourteen?"

"Yes, the Thirteenth Fourteenth is the most difficult stage of a girl's puberty, but Ah Xuan suddenly became enthusiastic and talkative, completely different from when she was a child." Xiao Yiran said mysteriously.

Dongyue: "Is that so? She was always taciturn before?"

Lu Song interjected: "I think Ah Xuan is just being indifferent to you, hahaha."

Xiao Yiran said: "Believe it or not, she never paid attention to outsiders before, but when I came, she not only accepted the gifts from me, but also said a word or two to me, so she never took I am an outsider, so you should envy me."

Lu Song: "Then tell me, what did I say to you? One sentence is um, and the other sentence is oh? Hahahaha."

There was another burst of laughter in the room.

Xiao Yiran was helpless, but still kept a smile on his face: "Look, you still don't believe me when I tell you, it's really like that."

He put one hand on Dongyue's shoulder, and stretched out the other to mark his knee: "Guess what gift I gave for the first time?"

Lu Song: "Do you still remember this? Are you thinking about getting the gift back?"

Xiao Yiran: "The first time, it must be unforgettable, you guys guess."

Dongyue thought for a while: "How about flowers?"

Looking at him like this, what can I give as a present, nothing more than fancy things. I told him that the first time we met was still young, and the family would definitely not allow a little girl to accept too expensive gifts, so the choices were very limited.

Xiao Yiran hugged Dongyue quite smoothly, patted his thigh lightly, and said: "Brother, you really understand me. Although you brought a lot of gifts, Ah Xuan only accepted my flowers. How do you guess?" Come on, why don't you guess the toys?"

Dongyue pursed her lips and smiled without saying a word. The two of them were very close. The distance made him a little uncomfortable, but he soon got used to it and ignored it.

Ah Xi unceremoniously grabbed a handful of snacks from the table and put them in his mouth. He didn't forget to grab a handful for Chong Mu as well. The two of them ate while listening to the conversation of these adults.

"I'm not worried about Axuan's matter for the time being. What worries me the most is the murder case of the Chu family." Dongyue said.

"Have you heard any news?" Tong Maosong couldn't help interjecting when he heard what he had been worrying about.

"It's nothing, but today we went to the warehouse, and it seems that there are many more people who may commit crimes than we thought."

"How to say?"

"It goes without saying that we are mainly people who are familiar with the Chu family. In the past, we only paid attention to the couple of their family. Now it seems that if they are handymen working here, they will hate these noble people in their hearts. I can't tell if I did something that didn't please my eyes. Or, who instructed these people to do it, I don't know."

After saying this, everyone here felt a little creepy. If the murderer could really manipulate others to kill, then his hands could be stretched very long, and he could kill without even needing an alibi.

Dongyue murmured a little in her heart, if this was the case, wouldn't she become cannon fodder for no reason?

"I don't think so. It's so easy to kill someone, and you have to pay for it. Who knows how much the price will be. Besides, even if he escapes punishment, he can't escape the condemnation in his heart. In my opinion, this It's their own grievances, don't think too much about it, we are just occasional guests, no matter what, it's none of our business." Chang Ziran said quietly.

"That's what you said, so what if Ah Qing and Ah Xuan are in danger?" Tong Maosong snorted coldly.

Chang Ziran: "This..."

But Lu Song said: "Ah Qing asked us to help, although it is not the same thing, but we have no reason to stay out of it, of course we have to help."

Unexpectedly, this big man looked very fierce, and he was quite loyal.

"Okay, righteousness, Lao Song." Xiao Yiran let go of Dongyue, approached Lu Song and patted him on the shoulder.

Zhu Yao hadn't expressed his opinion all this time, but at this moment he quietly sighed.

Dongyue gently rubbed against him, looked at him secretly, saw that he didn't respond, and took advantage of others not paying attention, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "How are these people?"

Zhu Yao shook his head slightly, but remained silent.

Dongyue immediately understood what he meant.

He can't see it either!

The two children are easy to talk about, and they should be able to check whether there are numbers in the three positions with a little coaxing, but it is difficult to deal with the four. , It doesn't look very easy to get along with, it seems to be a headache.

Dongyue stroked her chin in silence, then Xiao Yiran leaned over with a smile again, and said: "I don't think we need to be so nervous, before the matter comes to us, we are facing a big enemy, right? "

He picked his chin at Ah Xi, the tension on Ah Xi's body and face had faded away, seeing Hua Peacock's complacent look, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Chongmu raised his head slightly, looked at the people in front of him, and said, "Ah Xi and I heard that there were snake bites, and we wanted to help. Dad is here alone to take care of the health of the Chu family. After these things, if there is another snakebite, it will be worse."

Xiao Yiran nodded, and didn't seem to object.

Dongyue just wanted to say that she had driven the snake once two days ago, so she thought it was all right.

Tong Maosong said in a strange way: "Catch snakes with bare hands? You don't bring any tools, just walk around like this, saying you are catching snakes, only fools believe you, I think you are here to make trouble."

This is a bit exaggerated. Children of this age are naturally newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, but A Xijiu lived in the desert, saw a lot, caught a lot, and this is not necessarily difficult for him.

This Tong Maosong obviously didn't like children very much, especially since the children had just seen their absurd and embarrassing side, it was not incomprehensible for them to be eager to question and save some face.

Axi rolled his eyes and chuckled lightly to express his disdain.

"You!" Tong Maosong was a little impatient.

"What's wrong with me? I can't even laugh anymore? What are you laughing at? Just because you haven't seen the world and you can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it." Ah Xi exuded an unquestionable majesty. Choking Tong Maosong was speechless, his face flushed from holding back.

"Hey, I said, don't worry about the child, even if he can't really catch it, it's good to have the heart." Song Ziran pulled him to persuade him.

Ah Xi's face froze, he turned around and ran out of the yard in a hurry. Seeing this, Chong Mu immediately ran after him, and the two of them disappeared soon after.
