Cen's mother sighed, sorted out her thoughts, and began to tell the story of Gu Liang Yinru's death.
She still remembered that it was a summer night a few years ago. She finally took two days off during her children's summer vacation and went to visit Gu Liang's brother and sister.
She brought many gifts to Gu Liang, mother and son, but Gu Liang Yinru did not receive her at that time because she was exhausted from the long days of work in the past few days, so she spent the whole afternoon catching up on her sleep.
It was rare to see Cen's mother. The two children were very happy, but they didn't want to disturb their mother when she was sleeping, so they took Cen's mother out to play on the street.
However, it was a bit difficult to go out because the house they rented was relatively simple and the door locks were not good. No one in the family knew how to change the locks. They reported to the landlord several times but did not deal with it. Over time, it just sat there.
This door lock is not actually unlockable, but if it is locked with a key from the outside, people inside cannot open it and can only use the key to open it from the outside.
So the three of them are in a bit of a dilemma, because if they don't lock the door and go out, it might not be safe for their mother to sleep alone at home. It's not easy to get her up and lock the door with the bolt at this time. But if the door is locked, if her mother wakes up, there will be no safety.
I couldn't go out, so I had to stay in the house.
After much deliberation, they decided to lock the door first, otherwise they wouldn't be able to go out. Anyway, seeing as their mother was sleeping so deeply, it shouldn't be a problem to sleep for a few more hours. As long as they didn't play too late, dinner would be ready later.
Just bring it back.
So they wrote a note and put it on the table, and then went out happily.
Cen's mother hadn't seen them for a long time. They had grown a lot taller and were becoming smarter and smarter. Cen's mother really liked them more and more. She took them everywhere to buy clothes and food. The two children were also very happy.
It gets dark late in the summer, and by the time they realize it's getting dark, it's already quite late. Fortunately, they can catch the bus home. Because they live in a suburb with relatively cheap housing prices, the bus home leaves early, so they take the bus home.
In the car, they were still talking happily about what they had seen in the afternoon, wondering how happy their mother would be to see Mother Cen, and they also bought her mother's favorite snacks.
Little did they know at this time that they would soon have to suffer the pain of losing their mother.
After returning home, after opening the door, the three people who entered one after another felt their hearts sink for the first time. The door was completely locked, but Gu Liang Yinru was not sleeping on the bed at this time, and even after shouting many times, nothing happened.
They responded that the room at home was so big, there was no reason why they couldn't hear it, and the vague fishy smell made them feel suddenly heavy, and their bad premonition became stronger and stronger.
They rent a house with a top-floor terrace. There is a narrow passage leading to a rooftop on the roof, where they will also dry or place some things.
The only possibility now is that Gu Liang Yinru went to the rooftop. In that case, they might not be able to hear their shouts. But at this time, Cen's mother already had a very strong sense of uncertainty in her heart, so she forced a smile and said: "
I'll go up and take a look. Maybe your mother is still a child at heart and is playing hide and seek with us. You guys wait below."
But at this time, the Gu Liang brothers and sisters felt more and more uneasy. They knew that Cen's mother was worried about them, but they couldn't stay in the room safely at all, so they insisted on going upstairs with Cen's mother to see what happened.
After all, their mother is so young, and she has never been unable to hear shouts or deliberately hide to scare people.
