011 Death Wish

"Zhang...Zhang Yangrong?" Jiang Bing and the other two turned their heads to look at me in shock.

Zhao Jiyou gently pulled me down with his hand and whispered: "Don't talk nonsense. We don't know what happened to Qiu Ruide now. We can't let the dean know that Qiu Ruide is related to the murder."

I smiled and pushed Zhao Jiyou away, and said word by word at Qiu Sishui: "Director, don't hide it, just tell us the truth about Zhang Yangrong."

Jiang Bing and others looked at Qiu Sishui. Qiu Sishui changed from her calm expression just now to her surprise and at a loss.

"How did you... know?" Qiu Sishui asked me in confusion.

I took out a red rope with wishes from my pocket expressionlessly.

However, this red rope became a little yellow because it was too long.

"I remember you told us at the beginning that the wishing tree in the yard was just built in the orphanage. The Wolong Orphanage has been established for more than 20 years, and the tree has existed for more than 20 years." I put the red rope on the table and said coldly: "Zhang Yangrong is seventeen years old this year. If I guessed correctly, Zhang Haisheng is not Zhang Yangrong's biological husband and wife. Zhang Yangrong is actually just an orphan!"

"That is, you... orphans in Wolong Orphanage!"

Zhao Jiyou looked at me in surprise and turned his attention to the red rope. The font on the red rope was squeaky, obviously not the work of an adult, but should have come from a child.

A sentence is clearly written on the red rope.

"I hope to be very rich when I grow up, and I can eat and sleep a lot of money!"

What a naive and childish wish, but it is still a child's dream.

Especially for children like them who have lived independently in orphanages for a long time, they don’t have much extravagance to ask for. A meal or a piece of clothing can make them happy for three or five days.

Wishes are also dreams. They know the concept of money more than other children since childhood, so... so their wishes must be rich.

Zhang Yangrong is such a child!

But... this sentence appears here and makes us all stunned.

It’s not that Jiang Bing was so surprised. Ziyi and Zhao Jiyou were so surprised. When I saw this wish and the three small "Zhang Yangrong" behind the wish, I couldn’t come back like a thunder strike for a long time.

"I hope to be very rich when I grow up, and I will eat and sleep a lot of money!"

His dream and wish have been achieved.

Zhang Yangrong did eat and sleep, but the price was death.

"What else do you have to hide?" I took a deep breath and sat on the sofa again, took out the cigarette and put it on the corner of my mouth to ignite it and sucked it slowly.

Qiu Sishui came back from his surprise and immediately became calm again: "I don't plan to hide it!"

"The evidence is here, you still say you don't intend to hide it?"

Perhaps because we knew that Zhang Yangrong was dead and Qiu Sishui didn't know that our performance was a bit intense.

Qiu Sishui frowned and looked at us and said, "The three words of orphanage are not just mentioned. We also provide many people to come here to pick up and adopt a child. Am I hiding this?"

Qiu Sishui's answer was very reasonable, so reasonable that we were speechless.

After all, we have never asked Zhang Yangrong about it before, nor have we mentioned the murder of Zhang Yangrong.

"Parents who adopt children want their children to forget about the orphanage, and also ask us not to speak out to the public. The matter is very reasonable, and we basically agree to such conditions. After all, this is related to the children's future life, so... I am not hiding it!" Qiu Sishui answered with confidence.

"Do you know that Zhang Yangrong has already..." Zhao Jiyou wanted to speak, but Zi Yi covered her mouth.

Qiu Sishui looked at Zhao Jiyou blankly and asked, "What's wrong with Zhang Yangrong now?"

"No...it's okay." Zi Yi said vaguely, turned around and glared at Zhao Jiyou fiercely.

Qiu Sishui asked in confusion: "Then why do you want to investigate Zhang Yangrong?"

"Zhang Yangrong has some connection with another case, but we didn't know that Zhang Yangrong was an orphan before." I explained it with a note, then frowned and asked calmly: "Since Zhang Yangrong is an orphan, can you tell us some information about Zhang Yangrong?"

"Yang Rong..." Qiu Sishui took a sip of water and put down the cup, hesitated for a while and said: "The reason why Yang Rong came to the orphanage was because he was an abandoned child."

"The first time I saw Yang Rong was on the street at the foot of the mountain. Yang Rong was only four years old. It was winter and it was still snowing. Yang Rong was dressed very thinly. When I saw him, I went to the foot of the mountain to buy things. When I saw Yang Rong, Yang Rong sat alone by the road, trembling with cold. When I went to buy things, I saw the child pitiful, so I gave him a piece of clothing. I originally thought that Yang Rong's parents were nearby, so I didn't think much about it.

But after I returned from shopping, I found Yang Rong sitting alone by the road. I was curious and asked Yang Rong his parents. Yang Rong told me that his parents had gone somewhere else and agreed to pick him up. I believed it and asked Yang Rong casually when his parents left. Yang Rong told me that his parents had left for two days, and Yang Rong stayed at the place where they broke up with their parents. Unfortunately, they couldn't wait until their parents returned."

Qiu Sishui sighed: "I think it might be that Yang Rong and his parents were lost, so I took Yang Rong to the police station, but... but no one in the police station reported the child missing. The police went to investigate clues and sent the child to my orphanage. The orphanage had dozens of mouths waiting for dinner. It was not bad for Yang Rong, so I let Yang Rong live in the orphanage. However, a day passed and a month passed, but there was still no news about Yang Rong's parents. Until a year passed, there was still no news about Yang Rong's parents."

"It was only then that I realized that Yang Rong was just an abandoned child. When I asked Yang Rong what he was called, Yang Rong told me that his surname was Yang Rong. Since then, Yang Rong has been staying in our orphanage."

Qiu Sishui's eyes were filled with memories, and tears flashed in his eyes as he smiled: "Yang Rong is very sensible. He has only been in the orphanage for a year. At that time, he was five years old. He never made toys with other children and always played with other children. At that time, we also said that although Yang Rong was only five years old, he was like a big brother and sister who were in his teens accompanying them."

"When was Zhang Yangrong adopted?" Zi Yi asked softly.

Qiu Sishui sighed and said, "Yang Rong was taken away ten years ago. Yang Rong was seven years old at that time. The person who adopted Yang Rong was named Zhang Haisheng. He was a famous entrepreneur in our city at that time. However, it seemed that because his wife, who had been with him for more than ten years, had no children. Haisheng is a kind-hearted person. After his wife left, he did not marry another person, but he could not have no children. So I wanted to come to our orphanage to adopt a child."

"When Hai was born to adopt the child, he said that his family had a great career and that the adopted children must not be ill-intentioned. The children in our orphanage were kind-hearted. I recommended other children to him, but he looked down on him, so he only fell in love with Yang Rong. He said that Yang Rong looked very much like his wife who had been dead for many years. The children in the orphanage played very well with Yang Rong, and we were reluctant to let Yang Rong leave, but when we thought that Yang Rong could live a good life, we felt relieved."

"Haisheng observed Yang Rong for a long time and finally decided to adopt Yang Rong. Yang Rong did not cry or make a fuss on the day he left, and quietly followed Hai Sheng. But what I didn't expect was that Yang Rong came back again after leaving that day. According to Haisheng, Yang Rong ran back secretly. He couldn't let go of the orphanage, nor did he want to bear the orphanage." Qiu Sishui wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "Haisheng doesn't want others to know that his child was adopted in the orphanage, so he told us that Yang Rong could not come back in the future. However, Yang Rong stayed in the orphanage for a year or two and developed feelings. How could he say that he would be separated?

"In the end, I was helpless and ruthless. I shouted loudly and never came back from Yangrong Expressway. Since then... Yangrong has really never come back."

I took out a napkin from my pocket and handed it to Qiu Sishui and comforted her softly.

Qiu Sishui wiped her tears with a tissue and said, "This kind of thing is very common, and I'm not surprised anymore. Now I think about this child, I haven't seen him for several years, and I don't know if he is doing well now."

After hearing Qiu Sishui's words, the four of us unconsciously lowered our heads.

"Hey, by the way, Shanghai Sheng came to me last night and told me not to tell others that Yang Rong was adopted by me, just that he was his own child." Qiu Sishui suddenly thought of something and told us.

We were slightly stunned and asked in surprise: "Zhang Haisheng came here to find you last night?"

"Yes." Qiu Sishui nodded and said, "When he came to me, he repeatedly told me that no matter who asked, he should not tell the child that he was adopted from you, that he was his biological child."

"Did he just say this?" I asked with a frown.

Qiu Sishui thought for a while and replied, "He came in a hurry, so he said this to me, and after that, he left in a hurry."

We looked at each other but didn't understand why Zhang Haisheng deliberately concealed that Zhang Yangrong was not his biological son.

If he was really afraid of rumors outside, Zhang Yangrong's death might not be able to be covered. At that time, what other rumors are more devastating than Zhang Yangrong's death?

"By the way, does Zhang Yangrong have a tattoo? The right leg position."
