Short Detective Story Love Can Tolerate Everything

It is dusk, and there are many tall buildings in the city. There are lights in the buildings, and there are dots of stars. It is a warm and peaceful scene. This It is the afternoon life of all families. In the kitchen, thick soup is boiling and the aroma is overflowing. In the living room, there is the laughter of Lu Xiang and Shanshan. I stirred the pot a few times with a spoon, then put it to my mouth and blew it to taste the taste. At this time, I found that the cups, plates, and knives around me were floating upwards like slow motion, floating above my head. Standing still, I noticed something strange, and slowly raised my head. Everything fell down with a clang. I screamed, and Lu Xiang ran in quickly: "An Xiao, what's wrong?" I opened my eyes, and Shanshan stood there. Behind Lu Xiang, he pulled the corner of Lu Xiang's clothes and said innocently: "Dad, what's wrong with auntie?" I calmed down, "No, nothing happened. The plate was still on the table safely, and the kitchen knife was properly forked." On the knife rest, only a few drops of soup splashed on my hand, which hurt like a fire. I tried my best to smile: "It's okay." ?Lu Xiang came over and hugged me and comforted me: ?An Xiao, you are too nervous. You should pay attention to your health during pregnancy, otherwise it will be bad for our baby!? I leaned on his shoulder with peace of mind and nodded, not wanting him to worry. , but I know that I have been hallucinating during this period of time.

A year ago, I met Lu Xiang through someone’s introduction. Lu Xiang was tall and elegant. I fell in love with him as soon as I saw him. After going back and forth, we fell in love. Shanshan was his and his ex-wife’s girlfriend. My daughter is 5 years old, smart, cute, with soft hair. I don’t mind if she is married. Besides, Shanshan is so cute, I am willing to love her. But whenever he mentioned his ex-wife, he always kept silent. I only heard my mother-in-law talk about her death. When she said it, her expression was cold and a little unhappy, so I didn't ask about these things again. Maybe this was a wound in Lu Xiang's heart. Not long after our relationship, my mother-in-law urged us to get married as soon as possible, and I was very happy. Later, we got married half a year after we met. However, all the sweet moments disappeared, and what followed was a nightmare-like experience.

On the morning of the wedding day, my friend Li Lei accompanied me to the wedding photography studio to get makeup done. Li Lei has been my friend for a long time and works in a hospital. This time I asked her to be my bridesmaid. When I got home, my mother took a package and handed it to me, saying that someone had sent it. I thought it might be a congratulatory gift from a classmate. I hurriedly opened it and looked inside. There was a doll inside, wearing a white dress, but with something on its face. The red colored pen made a big cross, which was shocking. The doll smiled strangely. I was startled and threw it on the table as if my hand had been burned. My mother picked up the box from the table with a heavy face. After all, it was a big day, and she appeared. Such a doll is really unlucky. I looked at my mother. She put the box away and said to me: "An Ran, maybe it was sent by mistake. There is no name written on it." ?I nodded doubtfully, and soon all my uneasiness was dispelled by everyone's excitement.

In the evening, after everyone dispersed, Lu Xiang and I breathed a long sigh of relief. Shanshan was taken away by her mother-in-law, and we were left alone. It was time to enjoy our world together. I have followed the life path my mother arranged for me since I was a child. In their eyes, I am docile, sensible, and well-behaved. Lu Xiang is my first boyfriend. I hope our life will be happy in the future. Now it is quiet. When I got down, I was at a loss. I knew what was going to happen and was very shy. Lu Xiang came over and picked me up and put me on the bed. I was looking forward to it, excited, how happy I was at this moment!

The days passed like honey for a month, Lu Xiang was very considerate and gentle, and Shanshan was also Like me very much. One day I picked up Shanshan after work. As usual, Shanshan let go of my hand and ran into the living room as soon as I opened the door. I changed my slippers and walked to the living room. I saw Shanshan pointing in the direction of the balcony and saying to me: ?Auntie, look!? I looked in the direction she pointed. On the balcony were the clothes washed yesterday: Lu Xiang’s clothes, trousers, Shanshan’s little skirt. Only my shirt was in tatters, with a few pieces hanging on it. There was a hole hanging on the clothes hanger. I walked over and took a look. The hole in the clothes seemed to have been cut with scissors. The window was closed properly. What was wrong? In the evening, I told Lu Xiang about it. Lu Xiang said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Maybe some cat came in and caught it. If it breaks, I'll buy another one on Sunday. Well?" He hugged me and patted my shoulder. I shrank in his arms. Soon fell asleep.

A few days later, just when I had forgotten about it, something even more terrifying happened. At night, I was washing my face in the bathroom. I opened the facial cleanser in front of the mirror and squeezed some into my hand. Ah!? I screamed. There was no facial cleanser in my hand, but a sticky red liquid. I knocked over the bottle while washing my hands. In the pool, red liquid gurgled from inside, flowing down the pool into the black pipe. I shouted, my voice became trembling: "Lu Xiang! Lu Xiang!" Lu Xiang rushed in, and was stunned at first. Then she shouted angrily: Shanshan! Come here! Did you do this? Shanshan walked in, looked at Lu Xiang, looked at me, wow! He washed his hands and picked her up: "Shanshan, don't cry, don't be naughty next time." ?She cried and said: ?Auntie, I didn't do it. ?I looked at the aggrieved Shanshan and said nothing.

Not long after, I became pregnant and had a check-up in the hospital. When I came out, Lu Xiang happily said to Shanshan: Shanshan, you will have a little brother in the future. Do you like it? Shanshan thought first, then clapped her hands: "Wow! I want to have a little brother, and I want to give him my little white rabbit to play with!" Lu Xiang and I looked at each other and laughed.

Day by day, the little life was growing up, and then I discovered that Shanshan was acting strangely.

That day I was taking the pills prescribed by the doctor. Shanshan was standing at the door looking at me, with her little face pressed against the door frame. When I turned my head and saw her standing, I asked: "What's wrong with Shanshan?" Yixiao ran away to the living room and played with her little white rabbit. At first I didn't think there was anything strange about her, but later I discovered that as long as I took medicine in the bedroom, she would watch my actions at the door. When I asked, she would run away. , said nothing, only once when I pushed her into a hurry, she said: "This is a secret!" She smiled so brightly. Another time she took the microphone and said: Well, okay, I will be good. ?I walked over and asked: ?Shanshan, whose phone number is it? Is it daddy? She ignored me and continued: ?Mom, goodbye!? After saying that, she put the phone down and played with her little white rabbit. Mom? Who is mom? Isn’t Shanshan’s mother dead? I pressed the caller ID, and there were three words on it? No number?, no number! My heart was beating fast, how could there be no number? I squatted in front of Shanshan. Ask her: "Shanshan, whose phone number is it?" She said while playing: "Mom." Auntie, mom is back. ?I'm going crazy! First, strange things happened in this house, and now even Shanshan is not normal. When Lu Xiang came back, I couldn't wait to tell him what happened. Lu Xiang didn't say anything, so I said: "Can Lu Xiang tell me about your ex-wife?" He sat on the sofa and still didn't speak. I was a little anxious: "Hurry up." Tell me, how did your ex-wife die? He lit a cigarette and said slowly: "I'm sorry for her, don't ask." ?But Shanshan answered the phone and said it was her mother. ?He looked at me and said something that made me sad: ?An Xiao, is this your hallucination? Why don't you go to the hospital tomorrow? I stared at him blankly for a long time, hallucination, hallucination again? What's going on? Oh, could it be that Shanshan’s behavior was also imagined by me? On weekdays, Shanshan still calls me aunt sweetly and says goodbye to me when she enters the kindergarten. The teacher also praises her for being smart and cute, and everything is normal. How can I

On Saturday, Lu Xiang took Shanshan to her mother-in-law’s house. I was watching TV alone at home. It was already 9 o’clock in the evening. I peeled an apple and ate it while watching. My phone rang, and there was a familiar sound. The melody of the song, I thought: Lu Xiang called back, right? I picked up the phone from the table, but there was no number! I was shocked, thinking of the phone call Shanshan answered, the music kept ringing, as if it wanted me to answer it. Let it go, my hands began to shake, and I slowly moved to my ear and pressed the answer button. Hello? There was a noise on the phone? Hello!? I said loudly again, and then I heard a series of women’s laughter on the phone, dry laughter, laugh at. My scalp was numb, so I jumped up from the sofa and ran out desperately. I threw the apple on the ground and kicked over the trash can.

Where is the road? Where is my mother? No one was around me. I started crying in fear. When I got to a crowded place, I seemed to escape from the fear. I sat under the street lamp at the entrance of the community and shivered. I trembled and pressed Li Lei's phone number. I didn't know who I should turn to for help. He would definitely say that I was hallucinating again and I didn't want to listen to him anymore!

Li Lei hurried over. I told her everything from beginning to end, and she said anxiously: "An Xiao, some pregnant women will have slight anxiety or depression during pregnancy. It's okay. Come and check again tomorrow." "But, Li Lei, believe me, sometimes it's not an illusion. I know it clearly. Do you still remember the doll on the wedding day?" Her expression also changed: "Let's go home now. It's cold outside." ?I touched my slightly swollen belly, and the baby was really suffering along with me.

From the outside, we could still see the lights on in our house, which was very quiet. When we went upstairs, the door was unlocked. I hesitated and refused to go in. Li Lei pulled me into the house and stood in the living room. I couldn't say anything. The TV was still on. However, there were no apples that I dropped on the ground, and the trash can was well placed. I clearly remember that the trash can almost knocked me over when I kicked it over. fall. I held Li Lei's hand tightly. She patted my shoulder and asked me to sit down. Then I saw her walking around the room. After a while, Lu Xiang came back. As soon as Shanshan saw me, she said: "Auntie, look, grandma has prepared delicious food for you." ?She ran over to me, and Lu Xiang came out after entering the kitchen. Just as I was about to tell him what happened, Li Lei jumped in and said, ?An Xiao said she was the only one and asked me to accompany her. , now that you are back, I will leave first. ?Lu Xiang said politely: ?Sit for a while longer, this is a rare occasion. ?Li Lei picked up her bag: ?No, by the way, An Xiao, come to the hospital tomorrow morning, I'll wait for you. ?She shook her hand towards me, and I saw a white medicine bottle in her hand, and I suddenly realized.

The next morning I sent Shanshan to kindergarten, and I went to the hospital to find Li Lei. Li Lei looked very sweet in a white dress. She was the smartest among our group of friends. Li Lei saw me and took out the medicine bottle from the drawer. I knew it was the medicine I usually take. She said: An Xiao, the medicine inside is not a calcium supplement. It is a medicine that can cause mental illness if taken for a long time. Disorder medicine.

?I already guessed some clues last night, so now I am not as panicked as usual. I said calmly: ?Will it have any impact on the child? Li Lei grabbed my hand: ?It will have some impact on the child, but it was discovered early. It'll be okay. ?I lowered my head and looked at my belly, imagining that the baby was sleeping safely inside and I felt relieved. This was my biggest worry. Who could have done it? Why did they want to harm me? I was filled with doubts, would Lu Xiang meet? Where was Shanshan? She was so young, how could she change my medicine? No way? I shook my head. ?An Xiao, do you think of who it could be? I can't think of it.

I went back home and asked my mother if the doll was still there, and she said it was lost. I have been thinking about this problem, wondering if there is something I didn’t expect, and what I heard on the phone If the voice that comes has not been processed, then it is a woman. She is very familiar with my situation, knows my address, and knows my phone number. She only targets me. Who could it be?

I called Lu Xiang and asked him to pick up Shanshan. I told him that I would have dinner at my mother's place and would not be back. After dinner in the evening, I rushed home. It was getting dark. When I entered the community and walked on the path full of trees, I saw a small shadow walking around the corner of the flower bed to another building opposite. I saw her back, which looked very much like Shanshan. I shouted softly: "Shanshan". She didn't seem to hear her and continued walking forward, and I followed. She walked into a building and went up the stairs. She looked very familiar with the place. I quietly walked behind to see what she was going to do. When I got to the third floor, she opened a door and went in. I stood at the corner of the stairs and waited for a while, but there was no movement. Will Shanshan be okay? I walked up to the door, listened, and then knocked lightly: "Shanshan? Shanshan? No one answered." After thinking about it, I went downstairs and decided to go back and ask for directions.

Our house is also on the third floor. I found that the building Shanshan entered was facing us. There were lights on inside. There must be someone there. Otherwise, how could Shanshan push the door and go in? It looked like The people inside had already opened the door and were waiting.

When I got home, I called Lu Xiang. He was writing materials in the study. I said, "Lu Xiang, have you seen Shanshan?" Lu Xiang raised his head and said, "Weren't you still playing in the living room just now?" Not there? I shook my head: Where would she go at such a young age? Do you know where she would go? I tested him. He stood up and walked to the living room and I followed him. I said: Will Shanshan open the door and go out? Go and find it quickly! Lu Xiang opened the door anxiously, and then we saw Shanshan walking up holding on to the wall. ?Shanshan, where have you been? How can you go out alone? Lu Xiang walked down quickly and picked her up angrily. Shanshan smiled at me, and then said: ?Mom asked me to come over to play!? Lu Xiang’s face Changed: What are you talking nonsense? Look at you talking nonsense! Lu Xiang stretched out his hand and hit Shanshan. This time I didn’t say anything and turned around and went back to the room.

The next day I took leave at home, and when Lu Xiang went to work, I entered his study. It turned out that I never asked about his affairs, and I didn’t like to peek at his personal belongings, but Shan Shan mentioned her mother again and again, and I wanted to find out.

I rummaged in the drawer for a long time, and then in an envelope, I saw a photo, a photo of a woman, smiling very innocently, is this Shanshan’s mother? Back to the room , I couldn't sit still anymore. I looked at the building opposite from the window. Who lives there? After a while, I called Li Lei and asked her to come over when she was free. Then I went downstairs and walked to the opposite side.

When I got to the third floor, I mustered up the courage to knock hard. After knocking for a long time, there was still no one. I turned around and saw a person standing at the top of the stairs. She looked at me, almost with hatred. Staring at me, I saw her face clearly, it was the woman in the photo. She climbed the stairs one step at a time and stood in front of me. "You got it," she said. I asked: "Who are you?" She laughed out loud, a smile that was scary: "I am Shanshan's mother, the woman Lu Xiang loves." ?After hearing this, I leaned against the door weakly, Lu Xiang’s beloved? So, what about me? How many things did Lu Xiang hide from me? Her mind was in chaos, she was very excited, and she almost used all her strength to say loudly: ?Yes You destroyed us, no! It was his mother who destroyed us! I hate you!? She came close to me, her eyes were fierce, and then in an instant she stretched out her hand and pushed, and I rolled down the stairs, and then I didn’t know anything anymore.

When I woke up, Lu Xiang, Shanshan, my mother, my mother-in-law, and Li Lei were all standing next to me. When I saw my mother, I burst into tears. Shanshan only said happily:? Auntie woke up! Lu Xiang bent down and wiped my tears with his hands: "An Xiao, it's okay." ?I turned away, not wanting to see him. Li Lei saw my appearance and called everyone out, leaving only the road details. He should explain it clearly to me.

It turns out that 7 years ago, Lu Xiang was studying abroad and met the girl. The two quickly fell in love. Soon the girl became pregnant and gave birth to Shanshan. When the school found out about this, they did something Lu Xiang's family also knew about it and immediately transferred Lu Xiang to a school that did not allow them to interact with each other. The child was also given to Lu Xiang to take care of when he was 2 years old. Just when we were about to get married, the girl came over and knew Lu Xiang. After Xiang didn't want to start over, he started to have hatred. She was the one who secretly assigned our key, so the truth came out.

I forgive Lu Xiang’s deception because he loves me now, because our children are still growing up and life has returned to the past. Sometimes we will take Shanshan to visit her. Mom, I want to tell her that love can tolerate everything.

Short Detective Story: The Dead Prisoner

On this day, I came to the police station and wanted to chat with Chief Tiger. Unexpectedly, Yanzi’s mother came to report the crime in a hurry. Yanzi's mother sadly explained the case to Sheriff Tiger: "I just laid a few eggs last week, and I was very happy." I guarded these eggs every step of the way, but just yesterday when I went out to catch bugs, one egg was lost! I searched carefully around the tree, but couldn't find it! That egg must be It was stolen by others! Mr. Sheriff, that is the fruit of my hard work! You must help me find the egg!? My interest in solving the case was immediately aroused: "Mother Yanzi, can you describe the egg you lost?" What are the characteristics of that egg? The mother swallow thought for a moment and said: It is a white egg, smaller than other eggs. ?Okay! Leave this matter to us!? Sergeant Tiger affirmed, patting his chest.

After Yanzi’s mother left, Sheriff Tiger immediately began to discuss with Lao Mi: Where should we start this case? Of course it is to investigate the scene! The thief will definitely leave traces. ?I decided. When they arrived at Mother Swallow's nest, the two of them let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that during this period, in order to improve the security of the forest, the police station installed many cameras in the forest, and there was a very conspicuous one next to Mother Swallow's nest. Camera. ?It’s easier this time. ?Chief Tiger muttered. ?Quick, go back and check the video!? I made a decision immediately.

When we arrived at the police station’s information room, the police officers in the information room helped find the video record of the camera yesterday. After the mother swallow went out, a small figure rushed into the mother swallow's nest, picked up the smallest egg, jumped off the tree, and disappeared. I quickly played back the video, slow it down, slow it down again, it’s a possum!? All the police officers present shouted in unison. At this time, I had already checked some of the possum's habits on the computer. ?Hurry, arrest the Possum!? I grabbed Sheriff Tiger and rushed out of the police station. However, when I arrived at the Possum's nest, I discovered that someone had tipped off the Possum and that the Possum had escaped. Fortunately, the Possum hadn't gone far yet, so I and Sheriff Tiger chased him down the road. The possum climbed up a big tree, and I had no choice but to ask Sheriff Tiger to go up the tree to catch the possum. Seeing that the Possum was desperate, he suddenly fell from the tree and fell to the ground, motionless. Sheriff Tiger came down from the tree and took a look. He saw the possum with its legs in the air, its eyes staring, its lips curled up and its teeth grimaced. It looked like it was dead. Sheriff Tiger said angrily: "This kid didn't want to submit to the law. What a good thing, he committed suicide!" But I said calmly: "Don't worry, let's hide and see first"

After a while, the Possum stood up again and just wanted to run away, but was held down by Sheriff Tiger and couldn't run away. He had no choice but to admit: "I stole the swallow's eggs." Right here he took out an egg from the bag on his abdomen, which was exactly the one that the swallow had lost. ?Your "pretend to be dead" technique is so clever, you almost fooled me!? Sergeant Tiger said sternly. ?If you have anything to say, let’s talk to the bureau!?

After interrogating Possum, Sheriff Tiger asked doubtfully: ?Why can he pretend to be dead so realistically? I said with a smile:? When possums are frightened or encounter enemies, they will pretend to be dead! This is one of their habits! Sheriff Tiger said happily: "It's really good. I can always learn something when I work with you on cases!" ?I replied: ?Knowledge lies in accumulation!?

The possum is small in size and has a long tail that can be wrapped around. The mother possum can use this long tail to carry her babies around. The most famous skill of the Possum is to "play dead". When it is in danger, it will take this measure. Another unique skill of possums is "sudden braking". They will suddenly stand still while running. I am afraid that no other animal in the world can match this ability of braking quickly. It is this ability of theirs. Confuses predators. The animals that capture them are often frightened by this action and brake quickly, and they will stop there for a while, leaving Monk Zhanger scratching his head. But at this time, the possum that was standing still suddenly jumped up and ran away quickly.

Short Detective Story The Most Valuable Baby

Chris and his mother live in a cabin near the Big Forest of Bilostein.

In order to maintain the lives of mother and son, Chris's mother was busy sewing clothes from morning to night. Day after day, her palms became covered with calluses, and her eyesight deteriorated from working under dim lights for a long time. Every winter, she only wore that thin and old woolen shawl to work. She was often shivering from the cold and coughing constantly.

And Chris is too young to help his mother at all. One winter night, seeing his mother's slightly trembling body, Chris said distressedly: "Mom, when I grow up, I will make a lot of money, buy you a lot of clothes, and let you eat sumptuous meals every day." . No more cold and no fatigue.

?

? Silly child, I don’t need so many good things, ? Mom said with a smile, ? As long as you are by mom’s side, mom will be satisfied! ?

That night, Chris tossed and turned in bed unable to sleep: Is there any way to get rich quickly? How to find a way to make a child become a rich man.

Suddenly, he heard a giant roar coming from the depths of Bilostan Forest. This terrible sound reminded Chris that giants taller than the fir trees would roam the forest all day long, and little elves would scurry inside. Old people often say that if the elf is caught by someone, he will grant that person's wish in exchange for his freedom.

?I asked the elf to give me wealth. ?Chris said to himself in his mind. But he must find the elf before the giant finds him, otherwise he will be trampled to death by the giant.

Early the next morning, Chris got up from bed, sneaked out of the house and ran towards the forest. Undaunted, he walked into the forest. As he went deeper, the light became weaker and weaker, until he could barely see the road in front of him. But you must not stop, because the elves are hidden in the deepest part of the forest. The sound of giants chopping wood came from ahead, but it didn't stop him from moving forward.

Finally, Chris couldn't walk anymore. The trees ahead were so tightly entangled that he couldn't walk past them. So, he sat down behind a moss-covered tree trunk, opened his eyes wide, and waited quietly for the elf to appear.

About an hour later, a slender figure slid past his eyes. It's the elf! Chris jumped up and caught him. The elf struggled wildly. ?What do you want to do? The elf asked with pain on his face, ?Fulfill one of your wishes, right?

?Yes. ? Chris replied.

"You humans," the elf sighed, "will never let us rest in peace." ?

Chris looked at the elf twisting in his hand, and his mind was thinking rapidly about what to ask the elf. ?Are gems more valuable than gold? Does mom like rubies or diamonds? Or a castle?

?Hey! Make a decision quickly. ?The elf complained, ?I still have work to do. ?

The elves can only grant one of my wishes. What does mom like best?

"Give my mom the most valuable thing to her," Chris finally said, "and promise that she will never lose it." ?

The elf asked: ?That’s it?

?Yes. I hope that my mother will get the most valuable treasure in her eyes, and that she can own it safely as long as she lives. Please fulfill my wish immediately. ?Chris said, loosening his hands.

Suddenly, Chris couldn't believe his eyes, he was actually standing in front of his home. However, in front of him was the most familiar bungalow. It still looked so shabby and not the castle he expected. ?Maybe the mom in the house has gotten her hands on some treasure. ?He secretly guessed.

He opened the door. The house was still the same, there was nothing else. The old woolen shawl draped over my mother's shoulders was still there.

Mom jumped up from her chair when she saw Chris coming back. ?Chris, my boy. ?She cried, ?Where have you been?

?I went to look for the baby, mother. I walked into the forest and caught an elf. I beg Him to give you, the most valuable treasure to you, with the assurance that you will not lose it as long as you live. But the elf deceived me, we are still so poor. ?

After saying that, he couldn't help but shed tears. His mother shook her head and smiled. ?The elf didn't lie to you, my dear. You are my mother's most valuable treasure. Mom will cherish you forever. ?

She held Chris tightly and gently stroked his head with her calloused hands. Chris' tears continued to flow, but his mother began to laugh.

Finally, Chris understood the meaning of his mother's words, laughed with her, and then said seriously: "You are also my most valuable treasure, mother."

?
