Seagull

Chapter 2

When the two walked to the gate of the community, they saw a woman with her back to them. She looked quite young, tall and thin, with shoulder-length hair, wearing a long black skirt and a thick black woolen coat. Wearing a gray scarf, he looked extraordinarily cold when he wasn't smiling.Suddenly, she seemed to sense something, turned around, saw Chang Ze and Chen Nan, thought for a while, and walked towards them.

She approached with a smile, and there were two small dimples on her face, which immediately dispelled the cold breath just now, but she looked a little gentle and playful. She stretched out her hand to Chen Nan who was standing in front: "Hello, I'm Zhang Cen , are you Mr. Chen Nan?"

Zhang Cen's gentle and brilliant smile made them both stunned.

Seeing that there was no reaction from the two of them, Zhang Cen's smile slowly disappeared, and he asked doubtfully, "Am I wrong?"

Chen Nan reacted first, and he smiled back and shook his hand: "I am, please come out in such a cold day." As he spoke, he poked Chang Ze with his elbow to remind him to regain his senses, and introduced Zhang Cen to Zhang Cen. "This is Changze."

"Hello." Zhang Cen nodded.

"..."

Chang Ze didn't seem to be overwhelmed yet, but luckily Zhang Cen didn't mind too much.

"I'll take you up there, it's very close." After speaking, Zhang Cen turned and walked forward.

Zhang Cen led them into the house, stood at the door, and said with a smile: "This is here, everything should be complete, it's my first time renting, if there is anything that is not thoughtful, or if you want to ask, please Be sure to call me. I wish you a good time in Shanruo Town." After finishing speaking, he was about to close the door.

Chen Nan took a step forward to hold the doorknob, and asked, "It's a bit late, why don't we take you home."

Zhang Cen smiled and waved his hands: "No need, my younger brother is waiting for me downstairs. You are exhausted from traveling and traveling, so take a good rest." With a little force, she broke the door out of Chen Nan's hand and closed the door gently.

As soon as the person left, Chang Ze lay down on the sofa as if he had been cramped. He looked around, the room was clean and orderly, the dining table was covered with tablecloths, and the open bookshelves were neatly filled with books , the tea table was also polished and polished, and some fruits were thoughtfully placed.The windows are bright and clean, not bad.He sat up and turned on the air conditioner in the whole room, and then lay back down without much interest.When Chen Nan bought the food and brought it up, Chang Ze's eyes were already closed.

Chen Nan: "Chang Ze, don't sleep, go to sleep after eating."

Hearing this, Chang Ze changed his sleeping position, from lying upright to lying on his side, half-closed his eyes and said, "It's not that I want to sleep, it's the air conditioner that makes me drowsy." He lay down again Yes, I finally struggled to get up, sat at the dining table, stared blankly, picked up the chopsticks and touched the rice a few times, then put it down again.

Chen Nan: "Is this meal not to your liking?"

Chang Ze shook his head, and smacked his face with his right hand, "Zhang Cen reminds me of...she, do you have this feeling? I mean...resemblance."

After hearing this, Chen Nan simply stopped eating, and after a long silence, he finally uttered the word "En."

"If Sister Jiajia is this old, she should be like this. She is beautiful, polite, gentle, and caring." Chang Ze leaned back in his chair and stared at the lamp above his head until he saw a double image, and looked His eyes were sore, so he closed them.

Chen Nan: "Don't think about what you have. Eat first. You have to get up early tomorrow to inquire about it. Go to bed early tonight."

Chang Ze was lying on the bed, he couldn't sleep.As long as he closes his eyes, his mournful cry always echoes in his ears, "Sister Jiajia! Sister Jiajia! Where are you..." To this day, he still cannot forgive himself, even though Chen Nan and his parents comforted him. He said it was not his fault, and advised him not to take all the misfortune of Sister Jiajia on himself.Intellectually, Chang Ze also knew that he was only a small supporting role in this incident, and no matter what he did or did not do, it would not affect the final fact of Sister Jiajia's disappearance, but emotionally, he was still extremely guilty. I felt that if I hadn't been fond of cars at that time and had gone shopping with Sister Jiajia, things would not have been like this, and Sister Jiajia would not have disappeared.Even if the outcome of the matter still cannot be changed, at least knowing what happened on the road is better than looking around like headless chickens now.

The room was pitch black, only a small lamp by the bed was turned on, and that dim yellow lamp cast Chang Ze's figure on the wall.Chang Ze wrapped the quilt tightly and turned his head to look at his huge black shadow. He suddenly felt that this black shadow was the unknown murderer who abducted Sister Jiajia back then, and this black shadow was me...

Seeing that he was about to fall into a daze, there was a sudden laugh in the room, and Chang Ze turned around, "How could it be me."

In the dark night, it is destined that some people will fall asleep peacefully and indulge in sweet dreams, and it is also destined that some people will toss and turn, unable to sleep alone.

Early the next morning, Chen Nan opened the door and came out, and saw that Chang Ze had already bought breakfast. Looking at the dark circles under his eyes, he knew that he didn't sleep well yesterday, but who can really sleep well?

"Morning, come and eat quickly. I heard from the elder sister downstairs that this is their specialty. She enthusiastically recommended it. Come and try it." Chang Ze raised the food in his hand and took a big bite.

As soon as Chen Nan heard it, he knew that Chang Ze had calmed down and returned to normal. He walked over, "What is it? It looks like a dumpling." He opened the package and took a closer look, "There is something wrapped in the rice cake? This... Is it delicious?" Chen Nan hesitated.

Chang Ze: "It's delicious! The eldest sister downstairs said that the finishing touch is the broth that is poured into it at the end, which really sublimates this thing to the highest level."

As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Nan's wrist and pushed the breakfast to his mouth.

Chen Nan took a big bite, "Well, it's not bad."

"Of course, the eldest sister took me to the most authentic small store to buy it. Don't tell me, there was already a queue. When I saw the battle, I praised the proprietress, and the proprietress still He said that for the sake of my vision, he added a lot of materials for free." Chang Ze talked about his experience in the morning to Chen Nan like a chatterbox, and felt that he was infinitely charming, and he did not lose his charm back then. What kind of blindness did the ex-boyfriend have? She insisted on despising him.

Chen Nan put down her breakfast and asked, "I just want to know what you're boasting about. How can you be so generous with a small business for the proprietress?"

Chang Ze walked to the bookshelf, picked up a book and opened it, and said casually: "Of course I first praised her for being beautiful, and then I praised this food for its deliciousness. I will bring my friends with me in the future. Of course, I think she must see that I am handsome." After finishing speaking, he turned a page of the book without changing his face, as if he did not say those shameless words just now Same.

Chen Nan was speechless and just buried himself in the bitterness.

"By the way, I just asked by the way. There is a small stone step on the west side of the fork in the road. Going up is Shanping Village. Do you remember the three-storey hut? It belongs to Shanping Village Yes." Chang Ze closed the book, took the book and walked back to the dining table, tapped on the table with the corner of the book, "I never asked before, why did I come here this time? Are you sure?"

After taking the last bite, Chen Nan shook her head: "Not sure. Didn't the police station just solve a kidnapping case before I came here? When I was interrogating, there was a man from Shanping Village named Zhang Min who said he started The reason for doing this is that they bought a female college student in their village, who is very good at making money. He was greedy, and before the leader of the organization left, he joined them. Later, after "several twists and turns", he joined this gang. When I asked this How many years ago, he said almost 20 years ago. I asked him if he knew what a female college student looked like, and he said he didn't know. But 'trafficking', 'female college student', '20 years ago', the keywords are at least It is much more likely than before to be able to match three, and I checked the organization he said. 15 years ago, a middle-level person in charge was arrested by the police in Shanruo Town, and then the entire organization was dragged down like a carrot. We caught them all, and most of the more than 30 victims rescued at that time were babies and young children, and among the very few women, there were no female college students... I just wanted to try, and I couldn't let go of a possibility."

Chang Ze thought for a while, "So if the prisoner didn't lie, this Shanruo town has a criminal record, and there may be a victim who was not rescued back then, and she was a female college student. In this way, it is indeed quite suspicious. He chose to start from Shanping Village because he said that the female college student was bought in their village, which is also very reasonable."

Chen Nan nodded, "Yes, let's take a step back, if... If we still don't find my sister this time, but find the victims who were late for many years, and they still want to go home urgently, we will be worth it .”
