After the announcement, the ship's sway became more obvious.

From the circular window, you can see the waves rolling outside. In the vast sea, the ship is like a small leaf, swaying around by the sea.

"We drink and linger every day and dream of becoming rich."

"Maybe in other people's eyes, I think this man is heinous, but in those days, when I was with him, although he was not a good man, he was still a man of righteousness. Every day he thought about how to treat his father. Although he was vicious, he never beat old people or women. He spent all his money to see his father. For a while, he even used the money I gave him to live in the room I rented

"Later, that man was the most wanted bandit in the history of Nancheng, that is, long Jinrong, the main criminal in the 519 case..."

"I didn't want to talk to him, but I didn't dare to offend him. The old man pushed me to drink. At this time, a man rushed out and gave the old man a bottle of wine to save me. That man was the security guard of the dance hall at that time. His name was long Jinrong. At that time, I felt that I fell in love with him... "

"One day, there was a rich old man in the dance hall who kept pestering me. That old man was famous for his ferocity. If he didn't like it, he would hit people. All the girls in the dance hall were afraid of him."

"At that time, I often thought, when will this kind of life come to an end? I also hope I can get rid of the bitter sea, but I don't have the skill. Naive, I even fantasize about finding true love. "

"That year, I made a living dancing and selling wine in a dance hall in Nancheng. I'm older than those young girls, but I'm hot tempered. Some men like me and are willing to take care of my business. "

"Those things It's weird. The beginning of the matter starts from my acquaintance with long Jinrong... "

"Recently, I have been having nightmares. I dream about long Jinrong, Baizi, Ankui and the couple Those who died in villas, those who died more than ten years ago, I have a premonition that I am going to see them. Before I die, I've decided to write it down

"As time goes by, I've been hiding on the island for more than a decade. Every day, I live in fear. My health is getting worse and worse. My hair drops one by one and I dare not go to see a doctor. My life begins to count down. "

"What happened in those years, as a secret, has been in my heart for so many years, and I have never talked about it with anyone else. I even thought that I might go to the grave with those secrets. "

After so many years, the woman in his memory, has been blurred, only remember is a beautiful, plump woman. This woman is one of his enemies. Looking at her writing down the events of that year, Lu Siyu naturally recalled the tragedy. He felt that his chest was strangled by something, and his stomach ached

Reading the words above, Lu Siyu seems to be standing at a crossroads full of fog, facing Wu Hongyou 19 years ago.

Song Wen also lowered his head and came over. They watched together.

It seems that before her death, Zhang Hongqiao recorded all the things she had experienced.

Lu Si language pursed lips, carefully looked up, God did not break his last glimmer of hope. The book records the truth he has been looking for.

Lu Siyu opened the book with trembling hands. Many words were written on the paper.

The book should have been put for a long time. The paper on the cover is wrinkled and the paper inside is yellow. It smells moldy.

There are two hair rings, a worn-out doll, a few pieces of worthless old jewelry, and a book.

Lu Siyu's eyes were red and he took the small box from the woman.

Then Li Mingmei pulled out a box from under the bed and said to the two policemen, "all the things left by my cousin are here. She wrote some things in the book, and I can't read, so I kept them. Look, is there anything you want?"

Song Wen first asked Li Mingmei's ID card for verification. The ID card was issued a few years ago, because it is old and valid for a long time.

There were only two chairs in the room. Lu Siyu and Song Wen sat down. Li Mingmei sat on a double bed made of wood.

Li Mingmei poured herself a cup of hot water and rubbed her hands with thin cocoons.

Song Wen habitually looked into the room, which was obviously the room of an old woman living alone. There was only one towel, mug, slippers and many other things, without any trace of other people.

There are not many things in the inner room. It's very simple.

This is an old house. It has been built into a humble laundry. There are several old machines in the outer room, including a washing machine and a dryer. The washing machine was still on, buzzing around the wall.

"Come in with me." Li Mingmei collected the remaining sheets and carried them into the room. Lu Siyu and Song Wen follow the woman in.It sounds like the experience is right. The woman named Zhang Hongqiao should be Wu Hongyou they are looking for. Unfortunately, they are a little late. This is an island. The management is not strict. The woman has been hiding here for several years.

Li Mingmei lowered her head, folded the sheets in her hand, hesitated and said, "she She didn't tell me too much. I just know what happened to her. She was afraid to go to the island. She was scared all her life. Even when she got sick, she didn't dare to go out to see a doctor. "

Song Wen continued to ask, "did she tell you something about her experience?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, looked at Lu Siyu and Song Wen again, and then said, "she came to me more than ten years ago. She was the daughter of my mother's cousin. Before, she was from Nancheng. Her surname was Wu, and her name was Wu Hongyou."

Song Wen asked, "does Zhang Hongqiao always live on the island? She hasn't used another name yet? "

The woman stroked her hair disordered by the wind: "I'm her distant cousin."

Song Wen knows that if the clue is broken, how much damage will be done to Lu Siyu. At this time, he does not hide his identity and takes out his ID: "we are criminal police of Nancheng Municipal Bureau. I would like to ask, what is your relationship with Zhang Hongqiao... "

Three people standing in the yard, colorful sheets are still hanging on the side of the rope, blown by the wind, floating in the air.

Lu Siyu's eyes suddenly turned red. For a moment, he felt that he was not breathing well. Wu Hongyou was the closest person he could find to the truth 19 years ago. For this truth, he sacrificed so many people and spent so long. For this day, he went through many twists and tribulations. But why, still want to brush past with this truth?

Before I saw this woman, I just heard what the villagers said. There was still a little hope in Lu Siyu's heart. Now, the last hope was broken in his chest.

"Yes, but she died early last year She has no relatives or friends. You are... " Li Mingmei said, looking at the two people in front of her, she spoke with some accent, her hands were rough, there were many traces of detergent corrosion, her height was not low, but a little hunchback, standing there looked dry and thin.

Lu Siyu asked: "excuse me, did Zhang Hongqiao live here in the past?"

Lu Siyu also looks at the woman in front of her. She has dry black skin, white and yellow eyes, and her face is full of ravines. Her hair is full of silver hair. She should be in her sixties.

The woman heard the voice and looked back at them with a puzzled expression.

Song Wen came near and said tentatively, "Hello, is that Li Mingmei?"

Lu Siyu followed his eyes and saw a thin woman standing in front of several hanging poles, collecting the bed sheets in front of the door. Now, Lu Siyu was a little nervous.

Song Wen pulled him for a moment, pointed to a man on the side of the road and said, "maybe that man."

After two minutes of walking down the road, they finally saw a small front of a laundry.

We've all been here. No matter how many clues we can find, we should do our best to ensure the safety of our lives.

Lu Siyu let out a sound. He also knew that he was too anxious. From Xu Changying's death to now, he has been chasing this clue. For a moment, he heard that Zhang Hongqiao had died, but he couldn't accept it. Now he calmed down and understood that Song Wen was right.

Song Wen said thanks. When the villager left, he said, "let's go. Since we're all here, let's go and have a look."

The villager no longer doubted it, and answered him, "there is a cousin. Her cousin's surname is Li Mingmei. Her home is at the end of the road, and that's the laundry."

Seeing that Lu Siyu was depressed, Song Wen knew that he was afraid of breaking the clue. He stepped forward and continued: "we are two brothers. We are here looking for people. The old man of the family has been talking about that we have such a distant relative on the island. After so many years, we have been disconnected, but the old man always asked us to come and have a look. Is there anyone else in her family? "

The villager recalled and said, "it's the disease that died. It's like last year. It was buried outside the village." Then he looked at them with some vigilance, "what can I do for you?"

When Lu Siyu heard this sentence, his face turned white and his fingertips were cold, as if his whole blood had been emptied. For a moment, he was confused and asked subconsciously, "how did she die?"

Dead?

Just mentioned the name of Zhang Hongqiao, the other side frowned and said: "Zhang Hongqiao? This man is dead... "

Song Wen opened the map and looked at it, but there was no information, so he had to ask a villager.

Lu Siyu went all the way to several houses and got lost. They are looking for No.27 Qingzhou Road, but there is no road sign on this side.

People on the island are pasting tape on the windows and reinforcing the roofs. They are watching the two young people walking through the streets with strange eyes. Before the tourists have all set out at noon, they obviously did not expect that there will be tourists in the typhoon sky island.

On the street, there are some stalls, shops and farmhouses, some selling tourist souvenirs, others selling seafood. Several shops selling tourist products have already closed, and others are preparing to close up.Before the typhoon comes, the sky is a kind of grayish yellow, water vapor is stored in the air, and the humidity here is much higher than that in the inland. The sea breeze was a little chilly. Lu Siyu had never been here before. He felt that the wind made his skin ache. He tried to bury his face in the collar all the way.

South Shark Island is not big. It takes more than ten minutes to walk from the port to the residential area. There are only a few main streets and a hundred people here.

~_ ~Jamie didn't say anything, so it was up to him. He walked all the way in front, although it was walking, but the speed was very fast. Song Wen needed to walk quickly behind to catch up with him.

Lu Siyu takes his luggage from Song Wen and walks all the way in front of him. When he is out of sight, Song Wen runs a few steps to catch up with him, and then snatches the bag from his back.

Lu Siyu and Song Wen are going to the center of the island, Jiang Jiang and Qiu LAN are going to the seaside, and teacher Su and the couple are going to the hotel, so they all go their separate ways at the port.

Mr. Su is a little worried about them, but these people are adults, and it's useless to say more. He can only tell two students: "well, you must be careful, and come back as soon as there's rain and wind. Don't separate them. "

Jiang Jiang also took Qiu LAN in his arm and said, "teacher, we want to go to the seaside for a while and pay attention to safety." When the typhoon is approaching, one of them is curious and looks fresh everywhere. The other is worried about the seabirds.

"I'm going to take advantage of the typhoon to see if I can capture a group of photos," Lu said

Song Wen said to them, "well, I want to go to the island first, and I'll go to the hotel before the typhoon."

When he got here, he couldn't wait any longer. He was eager to see Wu Hongyou and ask about the truth of that year.

Lu Siyu takes out a cup and drinks a few mouthfuls of warm water. He finally gets over and exchanges his eyes with Song Wen.

After listening to teacher Su's words, only the couple responded positively and picked up the bag.

Su said: "let's go to the happy hotel as soon as possible before the typhoon comes. Don't get caught in the middle of the road when it rains The location of the happy hotel is on a small cliff on the island, which needs a long way to go.

These five hours are approximate. Generally speaking, in about three hours, it will start to rain near the edge of the typhoon.

"It's about five hours before the typhoon comes," she reminded everyone

~_ ~Jamie Da xs63

Jiang Jiang turns on his mobile phone and looks at the latest news of the typhoon. On the map, a huge white disc is approaching, a short distance away from their island.

The first thing I feel when I stand on the island is that the air on the sea is very fresh. This island retains a lot of original scenery. Many vegetation grow naturally. Coupled with the perennial sea breeze, the living environment is very close to nature.

On the dock, you can hear the call of seabirds one after another.

They got off the boat and arranged their equipment beside the plank road. The sea breeze was blowing. Although the wind was strong, they didn't feel so exaggerated when they were on the boat.

This is a small port, now there is a typhoon approaching, there are no tourists coming, so the staff are lazy, and there is no one on the boat road.

Once the feet to find the ground, a little rest for a while, those seasick people slowly ease over. ~_ ~Jamie pointed his middle finger angrily at the boat and said, "I was in a hurry just now, but I'm not in a hurry now."

This group of people were a little embarrassed and rushed off the ship by the crew. It can be said that they were thrown out of the ship. But when they got to the port, the ship seemed to be in no hurry. It stopped and did not return.

Song Wen carried his bag well, looked at the tripod climbing bag beside him, knew it was from Lu Si language, and picked it up directly.

One by one, the tourists, like drunk, staggered to their feet and went to pick up their luggage.

A boatman said, "here we are. Hurry up and get off the boat!" They have to rush back to Xinchuan port before the typhoon.

Just now there is a distance of the island, now it is close at hand.

Fortunately, it wasn't long before there was a light noise outside, and then the boat stopped.

Lu Si's language is still within the range of tolerance, and his body is fully supported by his will. However, if it takes a little longer, it will be hard to say.

As Song Wen sits aside, Lu Siyu grabs Song Wen's arm. At this time, he doesn't care about his clothes. He takes him as an armrest and holds him firmly. Song Wen patted him for comfort.

The boat swayed from left to right, like a pirate ship in an amusement park. Lu Siyu closed his eyes and shook his head. There was a cold sweat on his forehead. His internal organs were shaking hard, and his stomach was churning. He ignored Song Wen and felt that he was about to spit out.

Song Wen looked at it for a while, then sat back beside Lu Siyu and asked him in a low voice, "is it OK?"

There are no tall buildings, no viaducts, and even few people. It retains some rare natural scenery, which is different from urban and rural areas, such as a pure land far away from the city, paradise and paradise.That's their destination, South Shark Island.

It was a small mountain island, covered with green vegetation, and the beach was covered with soft white sand. From a distance, you can see some seabirds hovering around the island.

Song Wen didn't feel anything. He got up and went to the window. He looked into the distance. In the endless sea, an island had appeared far away. From the beginning, there was only a small point, which gradually became larger.

Lu Siyu coughed lightly and grasped the edge of the armrest of the sofa with his hand. His knuckles were tight and white.

For a moment, the cabin was quiet. The passengers who were chatting just now changed their faces and tried to hold on to something around them to maintain their balance.

"If I didn't meet that man, he might just be a gangster, wandering in the street. And I may have a mediocre life, play enough, find an honest man to marry

"But everything has changed because of the appearance of that person."

The little butterfly vibrates its wings, until today, forming a storm
