Chen Lie turned around and was shocked. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets. "Really?! Are you sure?! "
He quickly looked down at the ground.
He had seen the messy lines when he came in and thought it was just a child's unconscious graffiti.
When he took a closer look, he realized that on the clear log floor, there were extremely abstract matchstick figures drawn with a black carbon pen.
It was only after Huo Shaoheng's reminder that Chen Lie could tell that they were small figures.
Chen Lie: "…"
"… Just these little matchstick figures? How did you recognize the murderer? "
Chen Lie rubbed his chin and glanced at Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng walked to the leftmost picture on the log floor and pointed at it. "Look, it's a family. There's a father, a mother, this little girl, and a sister."
Before he found out who this little girl was, Huo Shaoheng didn't want to call her "Gu Nianzhi".
He followed the traces of the picture and slowly walked to the right. He pointed at the second picture and whispered, "… Dad and mom went out and didn't take this little girl with them."
"She hugged her knees and cried in the corner."
"Sister came to comfort her."
"… took her to the banana boat … it was this small submarine …"
"Then …"
Huo Shaoheng couldn't continue and paused.
"Then what?"
Chen Lie asked anxiously. He was engrossed in listening.
Huo Shaoheng took a deep breath. "Then, in the submarine, sister gave her a glass of water."
"After drinking it, she fell asleep."
"When she woke up, she found that the door was locked. Sister wasn't here, and neither were her parents."
"She cried for a while and gradually couldn't breathe. Finally, she understood what was going on."
"She picked up the carbon pen that she used to write daily and left these pictures on the floor."
"Finally …" Huo Shaoheng paused again. His already low voice was even more like the evening drum and morning bell. "… she still remembered to climb back into bed and tidy herself up."
Even if she was going to die, she didn't want herself to look messy.
She was a child who loved cleanliness.
Chen Lie tilted his head and looked at the pictures on the ground. He was dumbfounded. "How did you see so much content?!"
These children's scribbles were clearly abstract like the most abstract drawings of the stream of consciousness.
Huo Shaoheng replied calmly, "… This is how Nianzhi paints."
Chen Lie: "…"
So this was the experience of "raising" Nianzhi?
Chen Lie shook his head and suppressed the sadness in his heart. He walked to the far left and pointed to the first picture. "I can see that these are indeed four little matchstick people, but how can you tell that they are a family? And gender? "
What was even more amazing was that he could tell who was older and who was younger?
In his opinion, there was no difference between the four little stickmen!
Huo Shaoheng's voice came out of the intercom calmly, as if he was narrating a documentary, without the slightest hint of emotion. "Look closely. These four stickmen are all different in height, weight, and weight. The taller ones are Daddy and Mommy. Daddy's face has D written on it, and Mommy's face has M written on it. "
The corners of Chen Lie's mouth twitched. He simply lay on the ground to see the two crooked letters clearly.
He didn't get up and simply continued to lie down. He reached out and gave Huo Shaoheng a thumbs up to express his appreciation.
"What about the older sister? How can you tell? "Chen Lie asked again, looking at the remaining two little stickmen.
He didn't have Huo Shaoheng's keen observation skills. Of course, more importantly, he hadn't "raised" Gu Nianzhi before, so he didn't know how to distinguish the stickmen drawn by children.
"This stickman is shorter than Daddy and Mommy, but a little taller than the smallest person. Its hair is longer, so it's the older sister."
Huo Shaoheng walked to his side and stood near the picture.
If he wasn't wearing a protective suit that covered him from head to toe, Chen Lie would have rubbed his eyes.
He felt that his eyesight must have deteriorated again. The two little stickmen thought he was cross-eyed.
Following Huo Shaoheng's explanation, Chen Lie looked at it again and understood a little. "This … the little dot next to the smallest stickman's head … What is it?"
"It's tears," Huo Shaoheng said softly. "… She's crying."
Chen Lie was speechless for a long time. "Then the two over here are about the same height. One has long hair and the other has short hair. The two little stickmen hold hands and walk out of a square. That's going out, right?"
Huo Shaoheng nodded and replied, "Yes."
Although the child's stickman drawing was abstract, it still had its own unique ideographic logic in it.
"Oh, then this thing that looks like a banana must be the submarine." Chen Lie continued to move to the right. "Okay, how can you tell that it's the water my sister gave her to drink? I can only see that one little stickman is strangling the other little stickman's neck. "
The picture was so abstract that Chen Lie felt like he was going blind.
Huo Shaoheng said expressionlessly, "… Look between the two of them. It's written with water."
Chen Lie: "…"
Forget it, he wasn't going to look anymore. He didn't want to be blind.
Chen Lie stood up from the floor.
Huo Shaoheng pointed at the picture at the back. "Then she's asleep. You can tell, right? She's already lying on the ground. "
In fact, in Chen Lie's eyes, it made no difference whether these extremely abstract stickmen were standing, kneeling, or lying down.
However, he still pretended to see it and nodded.
"The picture after waking up is more complicated," Huo Shaoheng said calmly. "I only understood it after looking at it for a while."
It was a picture of a little stickman kneeling in front of the door and knocking on it. There was a dialog box diagonally above the little stickman's head with the words "Daddy, Mommy" written inside..
Then there was the little stickman sitting on the ground, holding his neck with his hands. His mouth was so wide that it almost occupied his entire head.
All the pictures were actually very rough. It was obvious that the little girl who drew didn't have much talent in drawing. This was exactly the same as Gu Nianzhi.
However, when he thought about the situation at that time, it was extremely uncomfortable to think of a little girl who was about to die holding her last breath and leaving these pictures on the floor of the submarine with a carbon pen that would never fade.
Chen Lie stood up, his heart pounding. He opened the door and went out.
Huo Shaoheng didn't go out immediately.
He thought of the structure of Gu Xiangwen's big submarine and the superb holographic projection system. He couldn't help looking around the small submarine room.
If Gu Xiangwen loved his daughter so much that he had built a toy submarine for her, there was no reason for it not to have any safety measures, right?
Normally, as long as a family had the slightest bit of money, they would install surveillance cameras in their children's rooms.
Would there be surveillance cameras here too?
Huo Shaoheng remembered the location of the surveillance cameras in Gu Xiangwen's big submarine.
He roughly figured out the location and walked to the right corner of the room. There was a flower-like floor lamp there.
Huo Shaoheng narrowed his eyes and looked around. Sure enough, he found the camera behind the floor lamp.
He carefully removed the camera and surveillance system and put them in his backpack.
He then walked to the pink princess's bed and quietly looked at the little girl who had been dead for seven years. He bent down and pulled the blanket at the corner of the bed to cover her. He picked up a few strands of black hair from her pillow and put them in a transparent evidence bag before leaving the small submarine.
..
Back on the deck, Chen Lie took off his chemical suit and sat on a plastic stool with a bottle of beer. He held the bottle of beer and gulped it down in the Caribbean.
Huo Shaoheng returned to the cabin and changed into his regular clothes. He handed the camera and surveillance system to Zhao Liangze and asked him to transfer the contents to the computer.
He looked around the cabin and didn't see Chen Lie. Huo Shaoheng asked, "Where's Chen Lie?"
"On the deck." Yin Shixiong came over to help Zhao Liangze.
Huo Shaoheng walked out of the cabin and saw Chen Lie's back. He felt a little lonely.
He walked over silently, sat down beside Chen Lie, and lit a cigarette.
Chen Lie didn't turn around, but from the corner of his eye, he knew it was Huo Shaoheng.
He took a few more sips from the beer bottle and muttered, "… Who do you think that little girl is? Why does she look so much like Nianzhi seven years ago? Is it her twin sister? "
Chen Lie was no stranger to Gu Nianzhi's appearance from seven years ago.
He had also been appointed by the military to be Gu Nianzhi's personal doctor seven years ago.
He and Huo Shaoheng knew more about Gu Nianzhi than anyone else, but the two of them had a tacit understanding not to mention Gu Nianzhi's special constitution to anyone else.
Huo Shaoheng took a puff of his cigarette and looked at the coastline in front of him with a deep gaze. He sighed slightly and flicked the ash off his cigarette. He said calmly, "You have to be mentally prepared."
As he spoke, he handed the evidence bag containing the little girl's hair to Chen Lie. "Go for a DNA test and then verify the paternity of Gu Xiangwen."
Chen Lie looked at him sideways. He knew that Huo Shaoheng was thinking about He Zhichu's situation and was worried that Gu Nianzhi's situation was similar to He Zhichu's.
He Zhichu was already unrecognizable. He didn't want another Gu Nianzhi.
The corners of his mouth twitched. "Me? You might as well say you have to be mentally prepared! "
Huo Shaoheng looked at him calmly.
"Stop pretending." Chen Lie sneered. "You still refuse to call that little girl's name. What are you afraid of?"
Chen Lie knew Huo Shaoheng too well. He knew that his every move had a deeper meaning.
Huo Shaoheng lowered his head slightly and said calmly, "Nothing. I don't know her name until I confirm her identity. "
Of course, no matter how strong he was, he would need time to digest the fact that he had to call a strange little girl his wife's name.
So far, he couldn't say that name.
Chen Lie shifted his gaze and looked at the distant sky. He whispered, "When I entered the cabin just now, I heard Little Ze and Big Xiong discussing the quantum mechanics theory that Ms. Song mentioned. Both of them were talking about whether this theory could explain Professor He and Nianzhi's situation."
The problem was that there were two people who looked exactly the same. They were neither clones nor twins.
"What quantum mechanics?" When Huo Shaoheng entered, the two of them had already quieted down and were silent.
Chen Lie turned around and was about to speak when he saw Song Jinning walking out. He quickly smiled and said, "Let Director Song speak for herself."
