With my mother's speculation about my father's letter, although it was speculation, I already agreed with it in my heart. Then thinking about the letter I received from my second brother, if I understand it according to the previous idea, then the matter will have another explanation, so I
I asked my mother: If you think about it this way, then the letter I received from my second brother today should also be sent by the person behind it?
My mother closed her eyes and turned the beads in her hands, and I waited silently, because trying to figure this out was also a huge mental effort.
After a while, she opened her eyes and said: I don't understand, but we can think about it this way. First of all, assume that this letter is sent by the person behind it, and the previous letter is to push you to go to the Rainforest Mountain Tomb.
Looking for the whereabouts of Jianguo and his party, what about this letter?
My head is about to explode thinking about it, but I still can’t figure it out. What is the purpose? If his purpose is for me to find out the whereabouts of my eldest brother and second brother, then the content of the letter should be the same as the first one.
It was asking for help, or he needed me to do something, but this letter was to report that he was safe. What was he doing to report that he was safe? He just didn’t want me to interfere. This was definitely not his purpose, because whether I intervened or not would have no bearing on the whole incident.
Influenced.
I shook my head and said: I can’t think of it.
"That's right. It's impossible for the person behind it to do a meaningless thing. Since I can't think of a reason for him to do so, let's rule out the possibility of this letter of peace for the time being. This letter should be from you.
The second brother himself."
I was very disappointed. I was originally thinking about what clues this letter could provide me, but after thinking about it for a while, I realized that it was an ordinary letter of safety. So no matter how accurate my mother’s guess about the previous events was,
It didn't help me at all with what I was about to do, so I couldn't help but sigh.
But then my mother continued: San'er, your eldest and second brother don't want you to continue to help, right?
I said it goes without saying that both of them left me and eloped, they must have wanted to keep me out of the affair.
"Then, think about it from another angle. They want to keep you out of the matter, and they have already left you to pursue it. So their current idea is to keep you as clean as possible, and even make it impossible to find any trace of you.
That’s right, right?”
I nodded.
"According to your second brother's temperament, if he wants to push you out, and if he is safe, will he contact you?"
I stood up suddenly because my mother's question reminded me of it!
This letter of safety, his appearance, is a worthless thing. My second brother wants to throw me away, so it is best not to contact me. Why do you want to send me a letter to say that you are safe?
?I know who he is as a person, and he would not do such superfluous things.
We can assume a possibility. If suddenly someone says to you: I am fine, don’t miss me.
It was in a very ordinary situation that I suddenly said such a very inexplicable and unintelligible sentence to you.
I'm fine, I'm fine.
What was your first reaction?
Should I say: I didn't say you were bad, you are just crazy.
It's like a drunken person who is in a mess, but keeps saying to you: I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk.
So how do you understand it?
The more he says he's not drunk, the more you think he's drunk, right?
How can we explain the two together?
Suddenly I say to you: I am fine, I am fine.
Then there is only one explanation, that is, he wanted me to think of him and what he did.
The content of "I'm fine, don't worry about it" actually means that they are in danger. In other words, the real meaning of his letter of safety is "I'm very bad, don't worry about it at all."
I asked my mother, "Does this mean they are in danger and are asking me for help?"
She nodded.
Now I can't sit still, they are in danger! I want to save them. If I was anxious after receiving my father's letter for help, then I feel anxious now. Although it is a family relationship that is thicker than water,
But after all, my father has left us for twenty years, but they are the two brothers who have always taken care of me when I grew up!
Seeing me anxious like an ant on a hot pot, my mother looked at me with a smile and said: I know you are anxious, but it is useless to be anxious like this. You have no idea where they are, even if they meet
It's dangerous, how do you save it, and where do you go to save it?
I slapped my head and couldn't help complaining, "Look at this Zhao Laoer, tell me what happens to you. At least you tell me where you are. Even if you don't tell me, you don't even have a postmark. This makes me
How to do it!"
"It's not his fault. Have you ever thought about the first letter you received? The postmark was in Taiwan, and it was even more strange twenty years ago? At first, I thought your second brother was reckless this time, but now it seems
, he also thought of something. This letter has no postmark and does not give you what you want to know in the letter. If I guess correctly, first of all, this letter was not sent through the post office at all."
I said "huh?" to indicate that I didn't understand the sentence.
"Just think about it, it might take twenty years for the post office to mail a letter? Even if this envelope was stamped twenty years ago, then the post office should not accept it, and this postmark is obviously to distract you.
It was a small trick to attract people without carefully observing the handwriting. Why was it still sent to you through the post office?"
"Do you suspect that there is also a problem with the post office?"
"Yes, your father's actions back then were under the official banner, and as their collaborator back then, he should also be an official, so it shouldn't be a problem to influence the post office. Maybe your second brother just thought of this,
So this letter should have reached your hands through his own means, not the post office."
Then I couldn't help but ask: "Since he mailed this letter by his own means and not through the post office, are he still afraid that the content of the letter will be leaked? If he is not afraid, why don't you tell me more so that I can save them?
."
My mother may have been angry at my question, so she spoke loudly, "Why are you so stubborn? You don't even think about the problem from another angle? They would only send you this letter if they were in danger."
Is it still too late to send a letter? And since we are in danger, how can we still have the chance to send this letter?"
The more I listened, the more confused I became, so I simply bowed to my mother and said, "I said, Mom, you don't know how stupid you are. If you have anything to say, please finish it in one breath. Don't let me think about it. I need to be able to think of something."
So, then he is not your son.
My mother was amused by me and continued:
"This letter may be because they knew that they would definitely encounter danger this time, and then asked someone to leave a message, such as saying that they would give this letter to my brother if I haven't heard from them for a few days, or something like that.
They didn't want to leave you alone at all, but let you be the oriole behind the cicada. He regarded himself as the cicada, and the person pushing behind him as the mantis, and let you go in the end.
Insert, be a yellow bird, your second brother is so thoughtful!"
After saying this, I understood that my second brother left such a letter before they left, because he knew that as soon as they moved, they would not be able to hide from the person behind them who had been watching them in the dark, so
The two of them lured the man over, and then the letter came into my hands. I discovered the doubts in it, and followed him.
If this is a game.
This time, the two of them who took the first step, and the person who followed them, were both in authority.
But I became the clearest bystander.
My role is to bring back the disadvantage that we were originally in the dark, and become the person behind me watching in the dark.
Damn, what a dangerous move! This was definitely a thrilling chess move, and I became the most critical chess piece! But the second brother completely overestimated my IQ. If I hadn't come to see my mother this time, I wouldn't have been able to do it.
Maybe if he thought about this, his plan would be completely ruined, and he would be at a loss for his mother's wisdom. When I looked at my mother's eyes, I couldn't help but admire her.
At this time, my mother burst into laughter and said, "San'er, I won't hide it from you anymore. Do you think I'm a god? I can guess everything? In fact, your second brother reminded me of many things, so this time it's you.
If you don’t come to me, I will come to you.”
I look up to heaven!
It turns out that I was the only one who was kept in the dark! (To be continued)
