In the dark night, with dim lights, Chen Beibei and Grandma Zhang sat face to face.

Grandma Zhang paused for a moment, then continued: "When Haruyuki's daughter died, Haruyuki was very calm and didn't even cry. So at that time, people in Qinghe Town said that Haruyuki's daughter was killed by herself.

dead."

Xiao Shui trembled slightly, and Chen Beibei felt some warm liquid fall on his legs.

Are they the tears of a kappa?

Kappa, don't cry. Chen Beibei will feel distressed.

Chen Beibei reached out and gently stroked the kappa's head. At this time, he didn't know what to say to comfort this five or six-year-old little girl.

"Grandma Zhang, do you have any basis for what you said?" Chen Beibei looked at Grandma Zhang and asked her.

"At that time, Haruyuki's family was poor, and they couldn't eat enough. They gave birth to a daughter, and the family was not happy. Moreover, that night, someone saw Haruyuki going to the river..."

When Grandma Zhang spoke, her eyes looked at Chen Beibei, as if she was lying.

Of course, there is absolutely no need to lie about this kind of thing.

Grandma Zhang would not do such a thing by falsely accusing a person who had no grievances against her, and it would not benefit her in any way.

Xiao Shui was still lying on Chen Beibei's lap, her eyes blurred by tears...

For ten years...for ten years, Xiao Shui has been telling himself that the memory of that night is false.

Yes, she saw her mother throw her into the river.

That day, her body couldn't exert any strength for some reason, and her head was also dizzy.

Until she sank into the cold river water and slowly suffocated...

After an unknown amount of time, she opened her eyes again.

It's just that his body has become extraordinarily light, seemingly without any weight.

In the water, her body changes into various shapes.

She saw herself in the river where her mother abandoned her, and she also saw her mother coming to the river to wash clothes.

However, no matter how I called her, my mother never heard her.

Xiao Shui knew that he was already dead...

But why don't you leave the river? Aren't you supposed to go to hell or heaven after death?

It was very cold in the water, and Xiao Shui didn't want to stay in the water.

"Grandma Zhang, what's the name of Chunxue's daughter?" Chen Beibei asked Grandma Zhang.

When Chen Beibei asked the kappa his name before, the kappa didn't tell him.

Just say that he has no name.

Maybe the name was given to her by her parents, from the moment they abandoned her.

Xiao Shui must have returned that name to them.

"Yinlan, Chunxue's daughter, named Yinlan..."

Chen Beibei can feel that this name is very special. At least a lot of thought must have been spent when choosing the name.

Grandma Zhang has already said a lot, and Chen Beibei already knows what he wants to know.

Chen Beibei walked to the window. In the long dark night, how many unknown things were there?

Chen Beibei knows that everything will not be so simple.

There is never a story that anyone can tell clearly.

After all, the same story looks different when viewed from different angles.

"Grandma Zhang, thank you for telling me this, sorry to disturb you. Good night..."

"Well, Chen Beibei, you can't tell these things."

Grandma Zhang looked at Chen Beibei and said to him.

"Grandma Zhang, don't worry. I won't tell anyone else."

Ten years have passed since the incident, and what Chen Beibei wants to do is just let Kappa get the answer she wants.

After walking out of Grandma Zhang's house, Chen Beibei bent down and picked up Xiao Shui, his eyes already red from crying.

Still very cute, just so cute that it makes people feel distressed...

"Brother, do you really think it was my mother who threw me into the river?"

Chen Beibei hugged Xiao Shui, and Xiao Shui's face was buried in his shoulder.

His speaking voice was very low, like a gentle whisper.

However, because he was almost speaking into Chen Beibei's ears, Chen Beibei still heard it clearly.

I heard it clearly, so what?

Chen Beibei didn't know how to answer Xiao Shui, because now it seems that this is indeed the case.

However, a mother threw her daughter into the river with her own hands.

There must be some reason...

I hope there is, I hope there is a reason that can be explained in the past.

Maybe in this way, Xiao Shui will feel less aggrieved.

"Xiao Shui, let's go home."

Chen Beibei did not answer Xiao Shui's question, but just said let's go home.

Home...

This word will make Xiao Shui feel a little warm.

We, Chen Beibei and Xiao Shui...will this make us feel less lonely?

Xiao Shui nodded, stopped talking, and just stayed quietly in Chen Beibei's arms.

When we returned to the rental house, the three-tailed fox was still asleep.

"Master, Xiao Shui..."

The three-tailed fox looked at Chen Beibei and Xiao Shui and called softly.

"Shh... Xiao Shui has fallen asleep..." Chen Beibei's voice was also very low.

The fiery red fox held a corner of the quilt in its mouth and opened a small spot.

Chen Beibei leaned over and put the kappa up, then covered him with a quilt.

No one spoke, and the night was very quiet.

The long stream of water and the sound of slow breathing sounded in their ears.

Obviously, when Xiao Shui fell asleep, he had no worries or worries.

Chen Beibei and the three-tailed fox also fell asleep quickly.

...

The system gave Chen Beibei a reminder before, which was to help his shikigami fulfill its long-cherished wish.

Now in Xiaoshui's story, Aunt Chunxue is the most suspected of Xiaoshui's death.

My lifelong long-cherished wish, I still don’t want to leave after death...

It must be just to figure out something, something that she can't figure out.

Chen Beibei knew that there was only one person he was looking for now, and that was Aunt Chunxue.

She must have been hiding something when she was in the noodle shop before.

It's time to make it clear now.

The next day, Chen Beibei got up very early because the last time he went to Aunt Chunxue's noodle shop to ask her something, he was already late once.

Chen Beibei still wants his current job, so he must not be late today.

"Sister Wu, I'm leaving first. You can help Xiaoshui buy food later."

Chen Beibei got out of bed and said to the three-tailed fox.

I didn’t buy breakfast for Xiao Shui today because he got up an hour early.

Xiao Shui hasn't woken up yet. Even if she buys breakfast, it will get cold soon.

"Well, Master, goodbye..."

Chen Beibei took out fifty yuan from his pocket, placed it next to his pillow, and left the room.

"Aunt Chunxue, you must give me a reason, a reason for abandoning Xiao Shui." Chen Beibei said secretly in his heart when he went out.

If you just don’t like it or love it anymore...

This would be too cruel for Xiao Shui.
