Chapter 151 Huge Doubts
Fat Tiger on the other side seemed to have heard the noise too and noticed something was wrong.
He shouted,
"Brother Jie, Brother Jie?"
"Brother Jie, are you alright?"
Ma Junjie's eyes were already bloodshot, and he clenched his teeth.
He mumbled, lowering his voice,
"Fat Tiger, come to the factory gate right now, I need to take a look."
After saying that, Ma Junjie hung up the phone.
Fat Tiger on the other side was stunned for a moment.
"Go take a look? Where should we go take a look?"
Suddenly, a thought struck him, his heart sank, and he exclaimed inwardly, "Oh no!"
He quickly jumped out of bed and ran out of the factory in his slippers.
A few minutes later, Fat Tiger arrived at the factory gate, panting heavily.
Just right,
With a "whoosh," a motorcycle sped by.
With a creak, it stopped next to Fat Tiger.
Ma Junjie, sitting in the back, called out.
"Get on the bus!"
Fat Tiger grunted "Mmm," lifted his foot, and straddled the motorcycle. The motorcycle bounced up and down several times, like a trampoline.
Ma Junjie gave another instruction.
"drive!"
"Boom, boom..." A loud roar of the revving engine rang out as the motorcycle sped off.
Twenty minutes later, the car drove all the way to the front of Grandma Wang's shop before stopping.
Ma Junjie and Pang Hu got out of the car, paid the fare, and the car quickly turned around and sped away.
Hearing the sound, Grandma Wang, who was inside the shop, came out in confusion.
Upon seeing who it was, they exclaimed in surprise.
"Hey, Fatty, Ah Jie, you're here?"
"Come in, come sit down!"
Fat Tiger chuckled, wanting to greet him and explain the situation,
But then they saw Ma Junjie walk straight in without saying a word.
Fat Tiger swallowed back the words he was about to say and awkwardly followed them inside.
We walked all the way to the inner room, where Sister Guihua was washing her hair.
She slightly raised her head, glanced sideways through her drooping hair, and
Upon discovering that it was Ma Junjie who had entered, his first reaction was clearly one of happiness.
She quickly grabbed a large towel and vigorously wiped her still dripping hair.
"Ah Jie, Little Fatty, you're here."
Fat Tiger chuckled again.
"Sister Guihua, today is Sunday, you don't have to work, so..."
As Sister Guihua vigorously dried her hair, she listened to Fatty Tiger speak.
But all their attention was on Ma Junjie.
She clearly noticed that something was wrong with Ma Junjie.
He remained silent, expressionless.
Grandma Wang came up at this moment.
Looking at Ma Junjie, he asked,
"Ah Jie, is something wrong?"
Ma Junjie stared at Grandma Wang.
He got straight to the point, suddenly saying...
"Grandma, I heard... Hu Ling'er is dead...?"
Upon hearing this, Grandma Wang's body visibly trembled slightly.
Then he turned his head and glanced at Sister Guihua.
Guihua avoided eye contact, not daring to look directly at Grandma Wang.
After a while,
Grandma Wang sighed and said in a somewhat reproachful tone,
"I know, it must have been Guihua who told you!"
"Sigh, Guihua, really! There's a saying that family scandals shouldn't be aired in public. How can you have the nerve to tell everyone about something like this happening in the whole village!"
Guihua was a little unconvinced when she heard this.
"Mom, we can't keep this from Ah Jie and the others just because we're ashamed."
"As you know, Ah Jie came specifically to look for Hu Ling'er last time. I... I felt bad not telling him."
"I didn't know Ah Jie's phone number, so I gave it to Little Fatty..."
Fat Tiger listened from the side, a wry smile on his face.
"Yes, yes, that's what I think too."
"When Sister Guihua called to tell me, I was hesitant about whether to tell Brother Jie. But after thinking about it, I realized that such an important matter should be discussed!"
"After all... death is a serious matter..."
Ma Junjie's eyelids drooped.
Hearing them say that,
The faintest hope in my heart seemed to have been completely shattered.
Hu Ling'er
He is probably really dead.
They met yesterday or the night before last... and I even gave her a book.
He also thought that there might be more opportunities for contact and exchange in the future...
He wondered if it was possible that Gian had misheard him on the phone…
Little did they know, things seemed to be a done deal.
Life is unpredictable; everything happened so fast and so suddenly.
Grandma Wang noticed that Ma Junjie was in low spirits.
He walked over and patted him on the back.
"Ah Jie, don't be sad, the dead can't be brought back to life..."
"Alas, that girl Hu Ling'er... is just too pitiful..."
"I think she never enjoyed a single day of happiness from childhood to adulthood. To put it bluntly, her death is probably a relief. At least she won't have to suffer anymore."
"Living is too tiring for her!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's emotions suddenly became subdued.
Guihua turned her head, covered her face with a towel, and hid inside, sobbing softly.
Fat Tiger also lowered his head, remaining silent.
Ma Junjie felt a tightness in his chest.
I always feel like there's a heavy stone pressing down on me.
Although he and Hu Ling'er didn't have any deep feelings for each other,
Even though they had met and learned about Hu Ling'er's life experiences,
In the end, it all ended in such a tragic conclusion.
Even strangers would feel sad and shed tears for her.
Ma Junjie gritted his teeth. He knew that Hu Ling'er's death was a foregone conclusion, and there was nothing he could change.
However, at this moment, a huge question lingered in his mind.
How did Hu Ling'er die?
Why did she suddenly die?
Who killed her, or what unexpected event occurred?
Ma Junjie said to himself.
This matter must be thoroughly investigated to give Hu Ling'er an explanation, and also to give ourselves an explanation.
He looked up at Grandma Wang and asked.
"Grandma, there's something I want to ask you, and I hope you'll tell me the truth."
Grandma Wang was taken aback, then nodded.
"Okay, A-Jie, go ahead and tell me. If I know, I'll definitely tell you."
Ma Junjie paused, a burning glint in his eyes.
He asked,
"Grandma, right now I just want to know one thing: Hu Ling'er, how did she die!"
Once the words were spoken,
Grandma Wang let out a soft "ah" sound.
"This...this..."
Grandma Wang became evasive and hesitant.
"Ah Jie...you...it's better if you don't know the answer to this question."
"Since she's already dead, there's no need to dwell on how she died."
"The dead cannot be brought back to life, so let her rest in peace!"
Ma Junjie gave a cold laugh.
The more Grandma Wang said this, the more suspicious Ma Junjie felt there was something fishy going on.
He turned his head and looked at Sister Guihua beside him.
He suddenly spoke.
"Sister Guihua, can you tell me this?"
"Hu Ling'er, why did she suddenly die?"
Sister Guihua was also taken aback when she heard this.
She looked away, picked up the towel again, and gently dried her hair.
"Ah Jie, my mom said... you shouldn't ask about this."
"Once someone dies, that's it. She's transcended worldly concerns. Dwelling on other things only adds to your own troubles..."
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie suddenly burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay!"
"Fine, if you won't tell me, then I'll find the answer myself!"
After saying that, Ma Junjie turned around without hesitation and strode out of the room.
Grandma Wang, who was behind them, saw this and screamed.
"Ah Jie, don't go, don't go!"
"Stop, listen to me, listen to me..."
