MTL - Dressed As the Villain’s Mother-Chapter 39
he did something bad
Zhu Pan had no doubts, but was still looking for someone in the back garden. She searched very carefully, but she missed any corner where people could hide, but she couldn't find Ji Zhile.
"Ji Zhile really knows how to hide." Zhu Pan said, "When I was playing with my younger brother at home, he was very stupid, and he was always easy for me to find."
Ji Ning clenched his hands into fists, and he asked Zhu Pan, "Do you still play games with your brother at home?"
He thought that the relationship between Zhu Pan and his younger brother was bad, because Zhu Pan said last night that it would be fine if his younger brother disappeared.
Zhu Pan said: "My mother has to work. If they are not at home, I can only take care of my younger brother. He likes to play games. If I don't play with him, he will sue, and then my father will scold me. He really Very annoying."
Ji Ning nodded: "Yes."
"But Ji Zhile is better than my younger brother." Zhu Pan said, "He apologized to me today, and the types of dishes I said yesterday were correct."
Ji Ning asked her: "If your brother really disappeared, what would you do?"
Zhu Pan said: "I will be very happy, so my mother will come to pick me up from school and make me breakfast, and I won't say that I am too lazy to take good care of my brother."
She seemed very happy, her eyebrows and eyes were lively, but it didn't take long for her to fade: "Even if my brother disappears, my parents may have a younger brother."
"If I were a boy, my mother would never have had a younger brother."
Ji Ning clenched even tighter with one hand, and under the sunlight, his face turned slightly pale.
"Are you sick?" Zhu Pan asked.
Ji Ning said, "I don't want to play anymore."
"Then you go, I'll go find Ji Zhile myself." Zhu Pan said.
Ji Ning hummed and walked into the house.
As soon as he entered, he ran into Si Tian who woke up from a nap.
"Ning Yi."
Hearing the familiar voice, Ji Ning froze, afraid to face his mother for a moment.
But Si Tian came over: "Are you playing a game?"
Ji Ning nodded.
Si Tian noticed his pale face, and immediately touched his forehead with the back of her hand: "What's wrong? Are you sick?"
Ji Ningyi decided to tell a little lie in an instant: "Mom, I'm a little dizzy."
As expected, Si Tian's expression changed, and she said to herself: "Is it heatstroke? It shouldn't be."
Although the temperature has risen slightly today, it is still not at the temperature that can cause heatstroke, but Ji Ning's face is too ugly, so Si Tian takes him back to the room.
As soon as Ji Ning was lying on the bed, he watched his mother busy looking for a thermometer to take his temperature, and said softly: "Mom, I'm fine, I'll be fine after a while."
Looking at the child's pale face, Si Tian also felt distressed: "Go to sleep for a while, and tell mom if you feel uncomfortable."
Ji Ning nodded: "I know."
"Where's Zhile?" Si Tian asked, "I didn't see him when I went downstairs just now."
Ji Ning tightly gripped the corner of the clothes with his hands hidden in the quilt, because of too much force, there were red marks on the palms of his hands.
"We were playing hide-and-seek, and Zhile hid."
The tone of his voice is still the same as usual, there is no difference, but the beating of a heart has lost its normal frequency.
Si Tian didn't suspect anything, and said to herself: "Has he cleaned his shoes?"
Ji Ning said, "Zhi Le brushed his shoes before playing."
Si Tian bent the corner of her lower lip, obviously thinking of the past, just like eating packed KFC, she said whether to eat or not, but finally ate it. In a sense, Ji Zhile is quite responsible Child.
When Ji Ning saw his mother's smile, he felt a little sour in his heart, probably because he knew that his brother was not there, so he asked a question that was absolutely impossible to ask normally: "Does mother like Zhile very much?"
Si Tian said: "He is my child, of course I like him, and I also like Ning Yi very much."
Ji Ning's eyelashes drooped slightly: "Me too."
I have liked him since I can remember, when I was very young, I don’t remember many things, but I know that my mother likes him very much, she will sleep with him, cook for him, take him out to play, other mothers will know Beat the child and scold the child, but the mother never does, the mother only kisses and hugs him, and says she likes him...
In Ji Ning's heart, mother is the most gentle and beautiful person.
It's just that Zhile changed after she was born.
He waited for a long time, and finally it came, thinking that he and his mother were the same as before. He didn't remember the bad things his mother did. His mother gave him life and gave him a lot of love.
But it's different, it's different everywhere, Ji Ningyi really wants to go back to the past, it would be nice if Zhile wasn't there.
These words seemed to arouse the demon in his heart and made him do terrible things.
Si Tian chuckled, and hummed happily. Like Ji Zhile, she sang a little out of tune, but she couldn't help humming occasionally.
Ji Ningyi said: "Mom sings very well."
Si Tian's face was a little red, she was very self-aware, but Ji Ningyi liked to praise her so much, Si Tian rubbed his cheek: "Thank you Ningyi."
He said obediently: "Mom, don't worry about me, you go to bed."
Si Tian said, "No, I've already taken a nap, and now I want to stay by your side."
Ji Ning's heart beats fast, he closed his eyes, but he couldn't fall asleep at all, he was nervous and scared, if his mother knew that he ran away without waiting for Zhile, if Zhile really disappeared...
Boom, boom, as soon as Ji Ning heard his heartbeat, it was too loud, would anyone notice it?
If Zhile doesn't share so much love from his mother, he is willing to give Zhile some, because they are very good.
Mom touched his forehead again, softly.
If Zhile was here, mother would go to see Zhile, Ning Yi tried hard to convince himself that he just wanted to get back what belonged to him, but he became more and more flustered.
His lips moved, as if he was about to speak.
At this time, some noises came from outside, and Si Tian said, "Sleep well, I'll go out and have a look."
Ji Ning blinked: "Good mother."
Si Tian opened the door of the room, and Zhu Pan's voice took the opportunity to float in. As soon as Ji Ning heard it, she said, "I haven't found Ji Zhile yet."
Boom, there was another loud noise in my heart.
Ning Yi raised the quilt and buried his head in it. He knew where Zhile was, but he didn't tell anyone.
The moment she heard Zhu Pan's words, Si Tian was a little flustered, and Zhu Pan's panic infected her.
Zhu Pan spoke quickly: "We were playing hide-and-seek just now. I went to find them, but I couldn't find Ji Zhile after searching for a long time. I searched everywhere outside."
Si Tian comforted the flustered little girl in front of her eyes: "Don't worry, where are you hiding?"
Zhu Pan said, "Everything is fine except at home, but I have searched everywhere."
Si Tian said, "Maybe Zhile is hiding at home, let's look for it together."
Zhu Pan hesitated a bit: "Ji Zhile said not to hide at home."
But after thinking about it, she couldn't find anyone after twenty minutes of searching, and she wouldn't go anywhere else, so she followed Si Tian to search in the house.
As time went by, but still did not see Ji Zhile, Zhu Pan became even more flustered, his lips were bitten pale by his lower teeth.
If something happens to Ji Zhile, grandma, parents, and mother may not want her. They have said many similar things before:
"If you don't get good grades, I don't want you."
"If you don't take good care of your brother, you won't be there."
"I don't want you if you don't listen..."
If something happened to Ji Zhile, grandma would be very angry and would tell her parents.
Before coming to grandma, my mother told her to be obedient and not to cause trouble, otherwise grandma would have no job, and if grandma didn't work, she would have no money to go to school.
Zhu Pan's eyes are red and she runs faster. She looks at each room one by one. She wants to study. There are many classmates in school. They are all the same. The teacher also likes her. She never says that her grades are not good. I don't want you anymore.
The noise they made woke up other people in the villa. Aunt Fang was the first to wake up. Seeing Zhu Pan running around, she reprimanded: "What's wrong? Panpan, why are you running, don't disturb other people's sleep! "
Seeing his relatives, Zhu Pan was startled and frightened, hugging grandma's arm: "Grandma, I can't find Ji Zhile anymore."
Grandma Fang turned pale with shock: "What, where did he go?!"
Cheng Yangjiao also woke up. Hearing these words, she was not as flustered as Grandma Fang. She spoke calmly and comforted the panicked Zhu Pan: "What happened, please tell me. Don't worry, there are surveillance cameras outside the villa."
Zhu Pan knows what surveillance is. Before she came here, her grandma told her not to do anything bad, and the surveillance will capture it.
She said: "I played hide-and-seek with Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile. I never found them. Then I saw Ji Ningyi outside. He seemed to be sick, so I went back to rest, but I never found Ji Zhile. , almost half an hour."
Grandma Fang slapped the little **** the back as soon as she heard Zhu Pan's words: "What's wrong with you, playing such a dangerous game, and only now telling the adults, if something happens to Zhile, don't go back I will work here for the rest of my life!"
Zhu Pan bit her lip and dared not speak.
Cheng Yangjiao frowned: "Don't scare the children, let's check the surveillance first, the gates are locked, they can't get out."
Si Tian pressed the little girl's shoulders, Cheng Yangjiao's words calmed her down, and comforted her: "It's okay, don't cry, there is nothing wrong with playing games."
"Let's go and see the surveillance together."
Use the computer to call up the video of the garden before and after half an hour. The surveillance is facing the vegetable field, and you can also see most of the back garden.
She saw Ji Zhile brushing his shoes, with his back to the monitor, working hard, he went to talk to Zhu Pan after drying his shoes, and Zhu Pan squatted in the vegetable field.
Si Tian asked: "What is Panpan doing?"
Zhu Pan stopped crying, and she was a little embarrassed: "I'm catching bugs. There are a lot of bugs in the vegetable field. When I'm at home, I will also catch bugs that eat vegetable leaves."
"Aren't you afraid of bugs?" Si Tian asked.
Zhu Pan said: "Don't be afraid, it won't bite people, and it can also be fed to chickens."
"Panpan is really a brave little girl." Si Tian said.
She felt that Zhu Pan just now was very pitiful. She was scolded by her grandma and slapped again. She didn't dare to say anything, and she still blamed herself silently.
Si Tian has no other brothers and sisters, but since she was a child, there are many classmates and friends around her who have younger brothers and sisters, including You Sheng who has a younger brother. They hate him very much. Maybe their relationship will become better when they grow up, but there are also some who have no contact with each other all their lives. The impact of hours will accompany a person for a lifetime. She wanted to comfort Zhu Pan, this girl has been educated to be capable and sensible at such a young age, but Si Tian didn't think it was a good thing.
Zhu Pan, who is rarely praised by adults, feels warm in her heart. She thinks that as long as Ji Zhile's mother doesn't scold her, it will be fine. She never expected to receive such gentle treatment.
She thinks that Ji Zhile's mother is so gentle and beautiful, even if Ji Ning has a younger brother, his mother probably won't say that if the younger brother loses, we don't want you anymore.
The three children were playing hide-and-seek. Occasionally, they would disappear from the monitoring screen. That was when the child ran to the side, but would reappear on the screen after a while.
When it was time for Ji Zhile to hide, he took Ji Ningyi's hand and walked out of the monitoring range. There was only Zhu Pan in the scene, and he went to find someone after counting.
The video fast-forwards until Zhu Pan finds Ji Ningyi.
Two children appear together in the picture.
Cheng Yangjiao asked: "Panpan, where did you find Ning Yi?"
Zhu Pan said: "On the tree, as soon as Ning was outside, I called him, and he came back."
Cheng Yangjiao frowned: "The doors are locked, how did he get out, did he climb the wall?"
"Si Tian, let's go see Ning Yi."
Si Tian hummed, her heart beat a little faster, as if the development of the matter exceeded expectations, this was a warning and a reminder.
Si Tian called out to the system: "Xiao Ai, I want to know where Ji Zhile is now."
Xiao Ai said as always: "Host, I don't have permission to know this."
It's just that the tone is inexplicably a little false.
What else did Si Tian want to say, Cheng Yangjiao had already knocked on the door of Ji Ningyi's room, Si Tian could only suppress the idea of blackmailing the system, people can't do two things at once.
The door rang twice, and Ji Ning opened it immediately.
He stood at the door, wearing a long white T, his face was a little pale, he looked up at them: "Mom, grandma, what's wrong?"
Cheng Yangjiao said, "Ning Yi, we didn't see Zhile. Just now we watched the surveillance and found that you and Zhile went to hide together. Do you know where he hid?"
Ji Ning shook his head: "Grandma, I don't know either. I hid with Zhile at first, but later I was worried that we would be discovered together, so we hid in different places."
His voice was low, as if he was apologizing: "There is a small door next to the big tree in the back garden, Zhi Le and I went out through the small door together."
"Then where did you hide, and where did you see Zhile running?" Cheng Yangjiao's voice suddenly became sharp when he heard them stepping out of the outer wall.
Ji Ning shrank slightly, and raised his head to look at Si Tian, his eyes were slightly red, as if he was afraid, with a slight glint of water.
Si Tian was soft-hearted, bent down and hugged him gently: "It's okay, Ning Yi, don't be afraid, grandma is just too worried about Zhile, just tell us where you saw Zhile go."
Ji Ning nodded: "I saw Zhile running towards the gate."
Cheng Yangjiao looked at Ji Ningyi and realized that he had spoken too loudly just now, so he softened his voice and asked, "Is Ning Yi sick?"
Ji Ning nodded: "A little dizzy."
"Then you have a good rest, my mother and I will go find Zhile." Cheng Yangjiao said.
Ji Ning pulled La Sitian's sleeves, wrapped her arms gently around her neck and let go obediently: "Then I'm going to sleep, Mom."
Si Tian carried him back to the bed, and Ji Ningyi quickly stopped struggling and looked at her with watery eyes.
"Ning Yi, don't worry."
Ji Ning nodded.
He watched his mother and grandma go out to find Zhile.
He clenched his hands tightly, and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
He lied again, why did he lie again, he knew where Zhile was, he did it on purpose.
When grandma asked him, those lies seemed to be said without thinking or hesitation, as if the structure of the lies had already been built in his mind, and even for a moment the lies would perfect themselves, telling him the truth was like this.
He was also convincing himself, but his heart pounded for a moment. If there is a flaw, Zhile will not run to the gate. If Zhile wants to hide, he must find a place where no one is there. There is no place to hide there.
Ning shrank her head into the quilt, not knowing why she became like this.
Mingming was so scared and nervous that he wanted to tell his mother everything, but when he saw them, he lied again. He was too afraid of being liked and criticized.
After leaving the room, Cheng Yangjiao said with a heavy tone, "Let's go to the door that Ning Yi mentioned first."
"It turned out that we had a dog at home and made a special door for it to go out, and I almost forgot about it all these years." Cheng Yangjiao explained, but his face was a little gloomy, "I didn't expect Zhile and the others to find out and run out from here. "
Sensing her mother-in-law's remorse, Si Tian said: "Ning Yi said just now that Zhile ran towards the gate. Although he was naughty, he didn't dare to go to strange places by himself. He wouldn't run too far, mom. Blame yourself."
Hearing this sentence, Cheng Yangjiao raised his eyebrows: "You are quite good at comforting people."
Si Tian said, "Where is it?"
She just doesn't know how to blame others when things happen. No one is happy to see such a thing happen. If this is the case, it's better for everyone to work together to deal with it.
"Why is Ning Yi sick today?"
"I don't know, maybe it's heatstroke." Si Tian said.
"Children won't suffer from heatstroke in this kind of weather. You can ask Zhile later when you find him." Cheng Yangjiao said, "Ning Yi has always been sensible, but being sensible is a stressful compliment for a child."
Children always want to be praised by adults and parents, and will work hard for a word.
But being sensible is too broad, good grades are sensible, not mischievous and not losing your temper are sensible, not picky eaters are sensible...
It's not a good thing to suppress yourself in order to get a sensible compliment.
Dessert: "I know."
They searched around the outer wall but couldn't find anyone. Seeing the passage of time, Si Tian became more and more anxious, which was beyond her expectation.
"Little Love."
The voice of the system responded weakly: "I am here."
"Where is Ji Zhile now?" Si Tian's voice was very serious, without the slightest bit of easy teasing, "I hope you can tell me as soon as possible, if something really happens to Ji Zhile, not only will my task fail, You will be punished for it too."
The system was startled, not knowing why the host guessed so accurately, it obviously didn't reveal anything, the system wanted to cry.
Si Tian was urging again: "Time waits for no one, what should Ji Zhile do if we are late?"
Xiao Ai said weakly: "It's okay, Ji Zhile's life is still very good now."
Si Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and his face became a little more relaxed: "That means you can find Ji Zhile, right? Tell me where."
Xiao Ai: ...So did the host do it on purpose just now?
"If you don't give it, you will kill yourself." It was a very skilled threat.
Xiao Ai: "... a direction of 35 degrees west by south."
"There is really nothing more specific. I can only perceive the real-time status of the rescued object, without the exact real-time location. This will violate people's privacy!"
Si Tian clicked her tongue: "Then your role is really not much."
35 degrees south by west...
Si Tian thought for a few seconds before giving up: "Don't talk about southeast and northwest, just talk about up, down, left, and right."
Xiao Ai: "Your rear left..."
Si Tian turned her head and found a forest behind her left. She called Cheng Yangjiao: "Mom, is there anyone else? Let's go find Zhile in the woods."
Cheng Yangjiao also considered this point: "Let's go first, I made a call."
…
Ji Ningyi didn't sleep. After his mother and grandma left, he lifted the quilt and climbed out of bed, stood behind the window, covered by the curtain, and watched them looking for Ji Zhile.
He deliberately told them the wrong direction, they should not be able to find it.
Then, will Zhile disappear?
How can people disappear, only death, but when this word appeared in his mind, Ji Ning’s body trembled. He has been avoiding using this word, like a kind of self-fabrication and persuasion. Once he realizes, There will be a cowardice that can swallow people.
He was afraid that his mother would find out, and that all of them would know that he was not a good kid, that he had done bad things, and that he would cheat.
But still afraid of Zhile.
He grew up with Zhile and knew that he was very timid. When they slept together, Zhile didn't dare to go to the bathroom alone at night, so he insisted on being with him. There are many dolls on his bed, and he likes to sleep with dolls .
Zhile lent him his favorite doll for a long time, but did not ask him to return it.
Zhile loves to cry, loves to act like a baby, is afraid of pain, and will shed tears when she gets hurt a little.
When he walked out of the woods, he seemed to hear Zhile fell down, would it bleed, would Zhile cry? Most definitely.
Ning Yi felt very uncomfortable in his heart, a little sore and aching, which made him want to cry.
Ning Yi clenched his fists. He felt that he was a coward. He knew that he had done something wrong but dared not admit it. It turned out that lying was much easier than admitting.
Through the window, Ning Yi saw his mother and grandma walking towards the woods.
They will find Zhile...
Ning Yi put on his shoes, went downstairs quietly, and followed them into the woods.
Stepping into a familiar place again, Ning Yi was a little scared. He had a good memory and knew where they were hiding just now. Mom and grandma also followed this road to find it.
They will find Zhile.
When this idea appeared in his mind, Ning Yi quietly clenched his fists, so what should he do?
He couldn't think of any other way, as if lying was not enough, he just followed behind his mother and grandma, and when he gradually reached the place where he and Zhile were hiding, he didn't see that familiar little figure.
Ning Yi opened his eyes wide, and there was a big tree in front of him. He recognized that tree as the one Zhile said they were hiding behind, but now that Zhile is not here, where would he go?
A wave of panic filled Ning Yi's heart. He was completely flustered and realized that things were not going the way he wanted. Zhile was alone and would run away by himself.
There are many trees, grass, and branches around. Ning Yi has read in the book that such a forest would be very dangerous. Children cannot go there, and they could easily lose their lives.
Will Zhile also...
He was very frightened, his eyes turned red instantly, and tears were about to fall, Ning Yi finally realized that he didn't want Zhile to die, he didn't want Zhile to disappear.
At this moment, he has completely turned into a child who is almost seven years old, helpless and panicked, and he no longer has the cover of being sensible and well-behaved.
What to do, what should he do, he looked at the figure of his mother in front of him, moved his lips, and ran towards his mother: "Mom."
he shouted.
Si Tian turned her head when she heard the voice, and saw Ning Yi running towards her.
She was very surprised: "Ning Yi, why are you here?"
Ning Yi's voice choked up: "I, I also want to find Zhile."
He didn't lie this time.
Mom touched his head and said softly: "You are sick now, you should rest at home. Grandma and I will bring Zhile back."
Ning Yi's tears were streaming down, his voice was trembling, and his face was pale: "Mom, yes, I'm sorry, it was me, I threw Zhile into the woods."
