After talking for a long time, I still didn’t know the names of this family.

Ran Qin returned from Zhong Kui's home for the fifth time. It was getting late, and night slowly invaded the streets and alleys of the county. Along the way, he saw naughty children playing. Children who went crazy were often scolded by adults.

Watching this scene, she remembered her childhood... standing alone in the wind, looking at the direction of her parents going away, looking longingly... Her childhood was full of loneliness and helplessness, but fortunately her grandmother's love made up for it.

The vacancy of that love. The sigh replaced the sad memories. He shook off the shadow following behind him and blended into the brightly lit bureau office.

Ran Qin works hard. The more difficult the case, the more she rises to the challenge and rushes to the front line of handling the case. Her leadership values ​​her, her colleagues respect her, and she is selected as an advanced worker at the end of the year.

Someone in the bureau was talking that with Ran Qin's drive, she would have a bright future. Things are unpredictable. In the afternoon, the bureau held a meeting, and the bureau leader announced something that was difficult for her to accept.

This matter is to transfer her to the police station to be the director. On the surface, it seems that Ran Qin is getting a promotion, but a discerning person will know that this is a smoke bomb. Her outstanding performance and seriousness and responsibility in her work have won her a lot of praise.

The approval of the superior leadership department also threatened the future of some people. As a result, some people started to play tricks and recommended her to the police station as director.

It turned out that the director was overage and had to retire. Without a suitable candidate, Ran Qin took up the post with honor.

Ran Qin was already used to this place. Those potted plants, the files she had picked up and folded by herself, and the files and information neatly placed on the desk. She came half an hour earlier than others, picked them up and put them in the file box.

.

Familiar surroundings and familiar faces are so difficult to let go of. The corners of her eyes were moist, and she turned around to wipe away the tears secretly.

The police said that the case that Ran Qin was investigating would be taken to the police station for further investigation.

The list in hand is the personal information of the head of the household in the case:

Gender; male.

Nationality; Han.

Age; 54.

Resident of No. 13 Fu Crotch Street.

Ran Qin discovered that the time when something strange happened to this family happened to happen before the three of them went to the mass grave. According to the head of the family, strange things happened before and they didn't take it seriously. But later on, the strange things happened more and more.

Frequently, a family is so frightened that they dare not stay at home at night before coming to the police station to report the crime.

After going to the police station to report the crime, their family was still like that for half a month. The police station did not take any measures to prevent or help them, so they went to the Public Security Bureau to report the crime.

In other words, when something strange happened to this family, it was the time when Zhong Kui was busy investigating the strange baby. It couldn't be such a coincidence! The baby would not have anything to do with this family.

Ran Qin was thinking about it, and after packing everything, he saw that the time was already 9 pm.

At 9 o'clock, it happened to be the time when Zhong Kui and the others arrived at the station. After getting off the bus, they still had to walk for a while to get home.

Zhong Kui and his family's home is in Mao'er Hutong, some distance from Crotch Street.

The two shadows were sometimes close to each other, sometimes pulling, jumping, shaking, and moving forward tremblingly as if they were shy. The tall shadow stopped and said in a slightly reproachful tone: "What are you angry about?

"

When the delicate shadow heard the tall shadow's accusation, he stopped for a moment and said angrily: "I don't like Liu Wengen. If I want to marry, you marry him."

Zhong Kui chuckled, then suppressed his smile and replaced it with a serious expression. He looked at Vanilla under the street lamp and said, "You are already my wife, what else do you want to do?"

"Who told you that I was his wife? Did he tell you?" Vanilla confidently looked at Zhong Kui.

The drizzle of rain on the road drifted with the wind, and a drop fell on Zhong Kui's forehead. He looked up at the dark night sky like ink, and sighed: "Let's go home, why are we making such a fuss here?"

Because of the rainy day, there were few pedestrians on the road. Those who could afford it stayed in front of the 14-inch black and white TV and watched "Jingwukan". People who did not have a black and white TV also had fun playing. There were pictures of chess lines on a newspaper.

The family plays chess together.

At the door of Zhong Kui's house, there was a small figure curled up. The small figure was curled up in the dark, maybe it was asleep! It was so frightening that the two people who walked to the door were so frightened that their hair stood on end and they exclaimed:

"Ah, who is this?"

The one who made the sound was vanilla.

Zhong Kui stabilized himself for a moment and looked down at the little figure who suddenly jumped up in fear.

"Who are you?"

"Master, is this you? I am Xiao Ming."

This childish cry made Zhong Kui startled slightly, scared! Is this little guy Luo Xiaoming? What is he doing here?

"Hey! Xiao Ming, let's go into the house and talk."

Luo Xiaoming was so grateful that he didn't know what to say. Under Zhong Kui's greeting, he followed the two of them into the house.

There was no one living in the house for a while, and there was a slight smell of mold. There were many white dots on the ground. These were mold spots caused by the damp terrain, but at least the house was much warmer than outside. After Luo Xiaoming entered the house,

, seemed a little reserved and a little at a loss.

"Whatever." Zhong Kui joked.

"I'm going to boil the water." Vanilla Ma Liu smoothed her sleeves and entered the kitchen.

Because of Luo Xiaoming's intervention, the unhappiness that Zhong Kui and Xiang Xiang had just had on the road seemed to be non-existent. The two adults were busy greeting this little uninvited guest.

Zhong Kui took out the already scorched fruit and checked to see if the skin was good. Then he said to Xiao Ming sheepishly: "It's okay. I'll let Sister Vanilla feed it to you later."

"Oh." Xiao Ming took the fruit and took a big bite without looking at it, maybe because he was hungry.

Zhong Kui took out a towel and wiped the benches one by one, and asked Xiao Ming to sit down. Then he asked: "Why are you here? Did something happen at home again?"

"Tell Master, nothing happened at home. I...I just want to learn from you."

"Pfft! Little brat, what do you know? I don't have any big skills to teach you. Studying with peace of mind is the way out. Look at me, I have little education and can't do anything." Zhong Kui said seriously.

"Master, I know you are capable, otherwise all my friends would really like to be your apprentices, and my dad...my mom would all be very grateful to you."

Zhong Kui found that Xiao Ming's throat suddenly stiffened when he mentioned his father. He knew that he was very sad because his father was executed last autumn. He reached out and stroked his head to comfort him: "You are a child, this is an adult's business.
