13 Mink Street

Chapter 38: What kind of thing are they!

　　 Karen stood up and looked at Lott, who was holding a cane in both hands and pressing his chest against him to help him maintain his balance.

　　 took a deep breath,

　　 felt a little dizzy in the brain,

　　 I didn’t know for a while whether it was hypoxia or drunkenness.

　　 But in my heart, after all, it suddenly loosened, and the huge boulder that was originally suppressed in my heart seemed to be moved away at this time.

　　 It’s just that this emotion cannot be expressed in words, not because of its complexity, but because of the tragedy of another family. The moral standards prevent you from saying anything inappropriate.

　　 If you are not on the scene, but are on the phone, then you can:

　　 "Hey, Lot, I was shocked when I heard that a family died in your street, and thought it was something wrong with your family."

　　 In front of death,

　　 Most emotions will be soaked in gray;

　　Many times, it is not because of respecting a certain deceased, but because of respecting life;

　　 After all, when most people look at the deceased lying in the mourning service, they have imagined what it was like when they were lying there.

　　 Of course, the inner soothing is understandable, and there is no need to feel guilty because of it. It is difficult for human suffering and sorrow to achieve true commonality, especially for strangers.

　　 "Karen, Karen?" Uncle Mason shouted again, "Are you okay, hold this car up."

　　 Karen turned around, walked over, and supported the stretcher.

　　 Uncle Mason said again: "Afu, you and I will carry the one inside, Karen, if you can't move it, wait for us here."

　　 Karen tried to push the stretcher cart alone. If it is on a smooth road, the problem is not big, but here is the potholes and the wheels can get stuck easily.

　　 At this time, Sarah’s mother came over, grabbed the other side, and helped Karen push the stretcher cart together.

　　Rot followed along with him: "Mr. Cullen, do you know that I am called the Cripple Rot in this street, and the one lying on it is called Cissou Hisso."

　　 "Speaking of which, his father and my father used to be workmates. When we were young, our fathers often drank together, and we both played together."

　　 "Later, we entered the same factory together. On the day of the accident, we were all crushed under the equipment. I lost a leg and he lost an arm."

　　 "He once comforted me like that, hey, Lot, I really envy you, you at least have a pair of complete hands that can be used to make slippers from tire skin, but I can't use these feet to knit gloves."

　　 "His family is actually more difficult than mine. When I make slippers in summer, I can earn hundreds of rubles per month to subsidize my family. My wife can still work in a textile factory with a salary.

　　 Many times he can only go to the garbage dump to pick up leftover meat and sell it to the fried butcher shop. However, he often brings home the freshest and most complete meat and distributes it to us.

　　 Every time he gave me meat, he would say:

　　 Hey, even if the meat is leftover, it still tastes delicious when chewed, just like the two of us, lacking arms and legs, but aren’t we also human. "

　　 "His wife has always had a heart problem and couldn't do the tiring work, so she and his mother gave someone an origami paper box at home. A hundred paper boxes can be exchanged for 2 rupee wages, and often one discount is a whole day."

　　 "After returning from the parade that day, we were all very excited. He said to me, Lot, have you seen him? Mr. Hickson is still standing with us. He is still the pride of our Eastern District."

"He is already allocating how to spend the 200 renminbi that he can receive each month. He said he wants to save it and ask his wife to go to the hospital to check his heart. He said that his wife's heart problem seems to be getting more and more serious, but he However, his wife said that the money should be saved for the children to go to school. After the children go to junior high school, the tuition and books should be more expensive."

　　 "Just last night, Mr. Karen, after you left, I went to his house and showed him the beautiful business card you gave me."

"He was very surprised, saying that he saw the hearse parked on the street, and he was emotional when he passed by, how can family members lie in such a luxurious and comfortable car to attend their mourning after death? ?"

"I told him about you having dinner at my house. He said that after his baby goes to junior high school, he should also know his classmates from good backgrounds. When he takes his classmates home as a guest, he has to prepare something to entertain him. To be courteous."

　　 After the stretcher has been pushed into the hearse, Karen opened the rear compartment of the hearse and pulled down a pad from above so that the stretcher can be pulled up directly. This is a configuration that the old hearse does not have.

　　 Karen went up first, pulled up, Sarah's mother and Lott reached out and pushed down together.

　　 Finally, the stretcher car carrying the "Sissing Hand Hisoso" was pushed onto the hearse.

　　 Karen got out of the car and looked into the distance, looking for uncle and Ah Fu.

　　At this moment, Mr. Lott, who had been talking, slammed his face in front of Karen, his expression became a little distorted, his eyes were completely red, and he roared almost hysterically:

　　 "Mr. Karen, a father who was still considering how to entertain his daughter's family classmates in the future, he committed suicide like this. Do you think it is possible?"

"I……"

　　"He died, his hand died, his mother was also hanged, and his wife jumped to death with his daughter. I went to see the scene, and I couldn't watch it, I couldn't watch it at all, and I couldn't bear to watch it.

　　Mr. Cullen, their milla, but their family’s darling.

　　No matter what happens, they will definitely try their best to protect Xiaomi, especially his wife. His wife has a heart problem after giving birth to Xiaomi.

　　 His wife regards her daughter as more precious than her own life.

　　 Even if she is going to seek death,

　　 How could it be possible to die with his own daughter! "

　　 Karen didn't know how to answer Lot's words.

　　 Lott held Karen's clothes with her hand, Sarah's mother pulled her husband behind, but Lott just didn't let go.

　　 "The other thing is... Why did you come to pick up Hisoso, Mr. Cullen?

　　 My god,

　　Can he afford the funeral expenses,

　　 His family even needs to pay for cremation,

　　 How can you have money to hold a mourning service!

　　 look,

　　 He is now lying in this big comfortable car,

　　 This is something he couldn't even think of when he was still alive yesterday! ! ! "

　　 "Puff!"

Lott’s two crutches fell to the ground, and then he fell into the puddle, splashing a piece of sewage, but even though he was disabled but always loved to clean it, he kept tapping the puddle with his hands. :

　　 "Who can tell me what is going on! Who can tell me what is going on!

　　 Why did those reporters come so quickly!

　　 Why did he scold Mr. Hickson in his suicide note!

　　 My god,

　　 He is a severed hissuo who can't even understand his daughter's elementary school questions, and needs to bring his daughter to ask Sarah for homework problems! "

　　 At this time, a group of reporters who had finished taking photos came out from inside;

　　 They were holding an umbrella, protecting the camera, and cautiously stepping over the bricks of the puddle. When they passed by Rot who frantically beating the puddle, they showed a look of shock and contempt, and walked around far away.

　　 Let Rot continue to sit there screaming frantically.

　　 At this time, with the help of a policeman, his uncle pushed his mother's body out.

　　 Farther away, Ah Fu pushed another stretcher by himself, and there were two people lying on it under the white cloth.

　　 All the corpses were transported to the hearse, the wheels of the stretcher cart were put away, and in the pit in the middle were Hiso and his mother. On both sides, where the rider was originally riding, the wife and daughter were placed.

　　 After signing the bill with the police, Mason got into the cab.

　　 "Master, got in the car." Ah Fu reminded Karen.

　　 Karen got into the car, and the corpse was lying on the place where the person was sitting. Karen could only sit down with Ah Fu, and at the same time stretched out an arm to prevent the bumps of the car from causing the corpse to fall down.

finally,

　　 The noise outside began to drift away, and the hearse drove out of Mine Street.

　　 "Afu, help me get a cigarette." Uncle Mason, who was driving, shouted.

　　 Ah Fu walked over, took out Uncle Mason’s cigarette, handed one to Mason’s mouth, and helped Mason light it.

　　 When Ah Fu was about to put the cigarette back, Mason snorted to the back.

　　 Afu knows it, and at the same time remembers the scene that day when he and Ms. Molly were smoking with the great being on the second floor window sill at 128 Mingke Street, and then laughing out loud.

　　 Alfred brought the cigarette to Karen’s mouth,

　　 Karen took the cigarette, but refused to help light the cigarette.

"uncle……"

　　 Before Karen could finish speaking, Uncle Mason who was driving immediately shouted:

　　 "Suicide, suicide, suicide, suicide by going to sex!"

Prepare the deposit for the funeral agency in advance, make an appointment, and then the whole family commits suicide and waits for the corpse to be collected. This is not impossible. In fact, it is not that I have never encountered a similar business before. There are really old couples who want to die together, so they help in advance. Arrange the funeral by yourself.

　　 But a deposit of 100,000 Lu coins,

　　Inmores Funeral Club,

　　 Is this family living in Mine Street affordable?

　　 Those who have given a deposit have long known that someone will die, they will die today, and the whole family will die!

　　 It’s not like waiting for a generation of people to die and then a collective funeral!

　　 So, what kind of suicide is this called!

　　 Others don’t know,

　　 Outsiders don’t know,

　　 Can the Immeles family who received the deposit in advance be unclear?

　　 I have been resting for a few days just to wait for this "suicide"?

　　 Mason is not a fool, of course he has seen it a long time ago.

　　 But after venting his emotions,

　　 Mason said again:

"Karen, there have been a lot of reporters here today. I believe that there will be more press conferences at the mourning meeting tomorrow. The police chief told me just now that the chief above him is also watching this case. There are many in the city government. Everyone is staring at this case."

　　 Karen pursed her lips;

　　 There is a traffic jam ahead,

　　 Uncle Mason honked his horn frantically to urge:

　　 "Beep toot toot!!!"

Then,

　　 He slumped again:

　　 "So, what can we do, go to report and report, saying that we have received a deposit of 100,000 RUB a long time ago? Say all of this is premeditated?

　　 Are we going to get justice?

　　 Are we going to expose the darkness?

　　 Are we going to be fair to the four guests in the car?

　　 Karen,

　　 This is a game of big shots,

　　 Since they dare to give us a deposit and give us so much deposit, they will not be afraid that we will speak out, because they have the confidence to block our mouths.

　　 can use Lu coins,

certainly,

　　 can also be like the family in the car, their mouths can no longer speak. "

Afu looked at Mason who was in constant ups and downs. He felt that Mr. Mason’s words were not so much as comforting his nephew and allowing him to take a closer look at the dark side of society, but rather saying that Mr. Mason was comforting him. Self, comfort the upright heart in his heart.

　　He is not trying to solve Karen, he is trying to solve himself.

　　 "I see, uncle."

　　 Karen had a headache. Xu was a "misunderstanding" at the beginning, which involved too much energy. At this time, sitting on the hearse, she felt motion sickness.

　　 Uncle Mason no longer speaks loudly, but drove comfortably. The rush of honking the horn from time to time can reflect his inner irritability.

　　 Maybe,

　　 If time could turn back, he would not choose to take this order.

　　 Making money is to improve the quality of life, and to improve the quality of life is to make the mood more pleasant. Now he is not happy.

　　 Karen looked at the girl lying on the chair beside her. She was younger than Sarah, after all, she was only in elementary school.

　　 "The neighbor saw it, it was her mother who took her to the rooftop." Alfred reminded.

　　 Karen looked at Ah Fu;

　　 Ah Fu seems to want to use a smile to alleviate the atmosphere at this time, but the smile is a bit too out of place at this time, so he can only continue with a serious face:

　　 "Maybe the young master can go back and ask his grandfather, who is Mr. Diss."

This sentence,

　　 was heard by Mason who was driving:

　　 "It's no use telling my father. My father is an upright person, but my father is just a priest. Telling him about this will only make my father distressed."

　　 Karen heard what Ah Fu meant;

　　The suicide was not only because of leaving a suicide note, but also because of the scene where many neighbors saw their wife and their daughter coming out from home to the tube building.

　　 No one threatened them, it was the wife who took her daughter to jump off the building.

so,

　　 There may be problems in this.

　　 It turns out that

　　 At least on the side of the Immelais family, it is clear that this family cannot be suicide, and everything has already been premeditated.

　　The problem is that the method of death for the wife and daughter is "voluntary" without being coerced.

　　 So, there is a problem here, there is a paradox;

　　 And a certain existence has the ability to create paradoxes beyond the normal mode of human thinking, that is...

　　 "Different Demon."

　　 Karen whispered to Ah Fu.

　　 Ah Fu nodded and sat back.

　　 The hearse returned to Minke Street near noon.

　　 When I was about to get home,

　　 Uncle Mason who drove suddenly yelled:

　　 "Damn, what's going on!"

original,

　　 At the gate of No. 13 Mingke Street, that is, on the pavement in front of Inmelais's house, a group of people gathered, each of them holding a bunch of white roses in their hands, and they were sitting there quietly.

　　 When the hearse came, the group of people who had been sitting on the ground immediately got up and lifted the rose high, with a sad look on their faces.

　　 The bunches of white roses were neatly lifted, and I felt very skilled, as if they had been rehearsed.

　　At the same time, a lot of reporters with cameras got off the car next to them. When the hearse began to unload the bodies, they began to take pictures without stopping.

　　 "Let let! Let let!"

　　 Uncle Mason yelled, but it was useless.

　　"White Roses", crowded around every stretcher car that went forward, crying and mourning. At the same time, the body of every stretcher car that entered was filled with white roses.

　　 With Ron's help, all the stretchers and the remains were pushed in.

　　The reporters still want to come in,

　　 but was stopped by Aunt Winnie and Aunt Mary:

　　 "The remains need to be sorted out. Tomorrow will be the mourning meeting. Thank you, please don't disturb our work."

　　At this time, Hu Mier, the editor-in-chief of Luojia Daily, who was sitting in a car on the side of the road, told the people next to him:

　　"Don’t let them go in stupidly to take pictures of the corpse. Do they want to take pictures of the **** effect after jumping off the building? Damn, it won’t arouse the people’s anger at all by putting them in the newspaper. The people will only feel sick and nauseous.

　　 Let all the reporters come back first, just shoot the meditators.

　　 When the remains are sorted out and become normal, they can be photographed at the mourning meeting, so that they can appear calm. Readers can only arouse anger in this kind of photos after seeing the photos in the newspaper, understand! "

　　……

　　 walked into the living room;

　　 Uncle Mason was so angry that he threw his hat on the ground.

　　 "It's crazy, the group of fools holding white roses outside came faster than our hearse!"

　　 Aunt Winnie said: "The secretary of the Mayor’s Candidate Ford’s office called to ask when we can arrange the remains. He will come to pay respect. I said tomorrow.

　　 In addition, various newspapers also booked a memorial service for the mourning, saying that they would send reporters to attend;

　　 Representatives of trade unions in various regions, some official offices of the city government, and even some celebrities in Luojia City, their assistants also called and asked when they could pay their respects to the dead. "

　　 Aunt Mary said, "Mason, I think there seems to be a problem with this list."

"roll roll roll!"

　　 Uncle Mason, who was on the verge of losing control of his emotions, yelled directly.

　　 then squatted on the ground,

　　 began to cry.

　　 Ms. Molly approached Ah Fu and asked in a low voice:

　　 "What's wrong with Mr. Mason?"

　　 Afu replied in a low voice: "He is a good man."

　　 Karen walked up the stairs silently,

　　From the first floor to the second floor, then from the second floor to the third floor.

　　 "It's so lively today at home." Pu'er asked as he walked along the handrail of the stairs, following Karen.

　　 Karen did not speak;

　　 "Karen, if you have something on your mind, you can actually talk to Diss."

　　 talking,

　　 Pu'er lowered his head specifically, looking at the two strange demons below who were raising their heads and looking up the stairs:

　　 "Dear Karen, in the face of the squirrel mandarin fish, I remind you, don't listen too much to the words of the two strange monsters, you have to listen to your grandfather, and Diss' words are the most suitable and safest.

　　He can always give you the most suitable and calmest advice. "

　　 Karen stopped and looked at Pu'er.

　　 Pu'er wagged his tail,

road:

　　 "In short, you can't be impulsive. There is a proverb that the impulsive will eventually be swallowed by the evil god."

　　 After finishing speaking, Pu'er tilted his head.

road:

　　 "What am I talking about, meow."

　　 Karen walked to Diss’ study, hesitated for a moment, and knocked on the door.

　　 "Do... Do... Do..."

"Enter."

　　 Karen walked into Diss’ study, Diss was writing with a pen, and asked without looking up:

　　 "It's very lively outside, did you pick up that order?"

　　 "Yes, grandpa. A family of four died, leaving a suicide note. On the last day when we agreed that the deadline was feasible, we died accidentally."

"Oh."

　　 "They live in Mine Street, and their family situation is very bad. The deposit of 100,000 rupee makes it impossible to sell their home ten times."

"Oh."

　　 "I think this is not suicide."

　　 "Well, it is obvious that someone arranged their deaths and also booked our funeral service in advance."

"so……"

"You can call the police and tell the police that you know that Sheriff Duke, don't you? Oh, he may not be in charge of the Eastern District, so you can call the city bureau and tell them this clue, next to the telephone on the first floor. In his phone book, there is the phone number of the city bureau."

　　 "A group of meditators holding white roses came outside, and a large group of reporters. Tonight or tomorrow, there will be a large group of officials and celebrities coming to the mourning service."

　　 "Oh, it seems that they are very powerful, and they should be involved in political struggle."

"Yes, so it should be useless to call the police...it should be useless. They have already told us clearly and almost directly in advance that they are going to kill, let us spare time to collect the corpses, they are confident, even if we know it, we will treat them as well. No effect."

　　 "Oh, then don't call the police, it's useless anyway."

　　 "..." Karen.

　　 Diss continued to write, as if he was writing a report;

　　 The fact is indeed the case. Diss is writing the second investigation report on the Bellevue incident.

　　 Karen took a deep breath and turned slowly, preparing to leave.

　　 He actually doesn’t know what he can do,

　　The more selfish idea is that he doesn't know what he is suitable for.

　　 He is just a...a high school student who dropped out.

Well, he has two other monsters who have always believed that he is the coming of the evil god. These two alien monsters are very capable. Ms. Molly can swallow Mrs. Seuss in front of him, and Alfred, should More powerful than Ms. Molly.

　　He may be able to order or induce these two strange demons to do something for himself;

　　 But he was a little scared,

　　 As Pu'er said: Don't be impulsive.

　　 The other party is very powerful, in the world; and the consequences of abuse of the power of alien magic may be even more terrible.

but,

　　 As Pu'er said: Diss is always calm.

Yes,

　　 Grandpa is very calm, since it's useless to call the police, then don't call the police.

　　Uncle Mason squatted on the ground crying in pain. As an ordinary person, he knew that he was unable to compete with those outside. He had a family and a family business, so he could only squat on the ground and cry after being hysterical.

　　 Karen is the same, what qualifications does he have to bring the whole family into a dangerous vortex?

　　 Just for... that poor... sense of justice?

　　 Dead, it's not the Roths yet, is it?

　　 It was not someone I knew or had contact with, I had never eaten together, I had never smoked together, I had never touched that little girl's head, so it didn't matter much to me.

　　Is it a relief when I watched Mr. Lott still alive?

so,

　　What am I struggling with?

　　 This world, this society, is like this, what do you want to change?

　　 It is better to think of something delicious for the family for dinner. Uncles who are emotionally broken can have some appetites. This is a good choice for the family.

　　 Karen opened the door,

　　 Hearing the sound of the Diss pen in the back,

　　 Karen hesitated,

　　 turned around and said again:

"grandfather."

　　 "Huh? Is there anything else?" Diss continued to write.

"We know that the family was arranged to die, but a neighbor saw that the family’s wife took her daughter to the rooftop and jumped off. As far as I know, the hostess will never hurt herself anyway. For her daughter, she wouldn’t do anything like seeing her husband die and taking her daughter to die together."

　　 pen,

　　 stopped.

　　Dis,

　　 raised his head, looked at Karen, and asked:

　　 "So, what do you mean?"

　　 Karen replied: "I think there is a paradox here, it is very possible that there is an interference from the power of a different magic."

　　 Diss put the pen on the cap, put it back in the pen holder, closed up the most half of the report, and stood up at the same time.

road:

　　 "If there is a strange demon intervening, then we have to take care of it."

"Forehead……"

　　 Karen was a little uncomfortable with the sudden change in Diss' attitude.

　　 Diss opened the desk drawer and took out a black suitcase from it:

　　 "You should have a better understanding of the whole thing, so if a different demon kills, where do you think you should trace it? I mean, it can be a different demon, or it can be a person who drives the other demon to kill."

　　 In fact, Karen doesn't know how to investigate. He is not a policeman, and he was just a police consultant in his previous life.

　　 But since Diss asked,

　　 Karen gave a general answer, because this answer is obvious:

　　 "I think this incident was a fuse. There are a group of people outside who are waiting to use this incident to hype, which will eventually lead to the mayoral campaign and become a weapon of public opinion to attack the old mayor.

　　 Therefore, the biggest vested interest is the one who has the most hope to become the new mayor if the old mayor steps down... is called Fude. "

　　 "Okay, let's go to Fu Fu's house and ask him if he did it."

　　 "Um..." Karen was stunned.

　　 Dissi carrying a black suitcase, walked around the desk, and came to Karen. Seeing Karen motionless, he asked:

"What's wrong?"

　　 "Go to... Fude's house?"

　　 "Yeah, didn't you say that he is the one who benefits the most? Then just ask him directly, isn't it the most convenient?"

　　 "Grandpa, he is a candidate for mayor. There should be many celebrities and financial groups in the Luojia city government, the media, and they are all his supporters."

　　 "Um~www.novelmt.com~ Then, what's wrong?"

　　 "Shall we go directly to his house?"

　　 "Go and ask him first, if it's not him, then ask him to name other suspects. Isn't this the quickest and fastest option?"

　　 "That's right, but if the opponent is very powerful and can drive the monster to kill, it proves that the opponent's background should also have..."

　　 Karen stopped talking,

　　Because he saw Diss smile.

"Ha ha."

　　 Diss stretched out his hand, patted Karen on the shoulder, and asked:

　　 "Did you read the book I asked Lunt to take to you?"

　　 "I read a book."

　　 "Which one?"

　　 ""The Light of Order"."

　　 "Well, there is a sentence in it, have you seen it?

　　 is the sentence:

　　 Order God, as an existence that maintains order, should be treated equally under the light of order. "

　　 Karen nodded and said, "I saw it."
