I'm a street kid, but my wife, a policewoman, won't divorce her

Chapter 762 Before life and after death!
In the courtyard of Qingyunshan Sanatorium.

Chen Xiao sat on a chair, holding the sketch paper and pen that Zhong Lingyun had found for him.

He was describing the scene narrated by Ning Rong about Kong Huizhen's soul being locked by the Black and White Impermanence.

That picture was actually not difficult for Chen Xiao to describe.

When drawing for the first time, Chen Xiao was also very fast and he even drew the scene effortlessly.

Kong Huizhen cried in panic.

The Impermanence holding a soul-locking chain and wearing a black and white tall hat.

There aren’t many characters involved, and the scenes shouldn’t be grand.

Just looking at the painting in his hand, Chen Xiao always felt that something was missing.

"What's the difference?"

After staring at the painting for a long time, Chen Xiao couldn't help but whisper.

Just at this moment, Zhong Lingyun brought a glass of water. When he heard Chen Xiao's whisper, he couldn't help but ask:
"Look, Mr. Chen is painting?"

Chen Xiao came back to his senses, looked back at Zhong Lingyun, nodded and smiled:

"I want to draw what Old Lady Ning just described."

Zhong Lingyun smiled slightly: "Her mind is no longer that of an ordinary person. What she said, especially the Black and White Impermanence, should just be her nonsense."

"Whether it is nonsense or not is up to each person to decide. And what a mentally ill person says is often more serious than it should be."

"Oh? Could it be that Mr. Chen thinks that what Aunt Ning said might be related to Huizhen's disappearance?"

Chen Xiao shook his head: "I'm not sure, it depends on how you interpret it. And after drawing it, I always feel that something is wrong."

Zhong Lingyun frowned and thought, then moved closer to look.

After just one glance, Zhong Lingyun was a little dazed, and then sighed: "Mr. Chen's painting skills are so profound. Huizhen seems to be standing in front of me under your painting."

"It's also thanks to you showing me her photo."

"No, no, no. People's photos don't necessarily show her in her most natural state at every moment. Mr. Chen's painting seems to show Huizhen when she is scared."

Zhong Lingyun's words actually mean only one thing.

That is the lifelike Kong Huizhen created by Chen Xiao.

No matter whether it was polite compliment or heartfelt admiration, Chen Xiao was deeply touched the moment he heard it.

"Mr. Zhong, are you sure that this painting of mine is of Kong Huizhen?"

Chen Xiao's question made Zhong Lingyun stunned for a moment.

"It's her. She's not a girl who gets scared easily, but if she really encounters something she's afraid of, she'll collapse. She's completely different from her usual calm and rational self."

Chen Xiao frowned.

It seemed that every word Zhong Lingyun said hit the nail on the head, but every word always sounded empty.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao changed his angle and asked:

"When have you ever seen her collapse from fear?"

"She is very afraid of the dark. Before, I thought she was just timid. But later I consulted the doctor, and they told me that it is called dark phobia, a mental illness."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao subconsciously asked, "Darkness phobia? Does that mean she really doesn't like the night?"

"Yes." "Was she missing at night or during the day?"

"night."

"Since she has a fear of the dark, then according to common sense she shouldn't go out at night, right?"

Zhong Lingyun nodded: "That's right. When I was dating her, we rarely met at night. When we did meet, I would pick her up in person. Including Aunt Ning, I never worried about her running around every night."

"And on the night she disappeared, Aunt Ning clearly found her asleep in her room, but before dawn the next day, Huizhen was no longer in the room."

"So, neither you nor Mrs. Ning know the real reason why Kong Huizhen disappeared."

After Chen Xiao asked, Zhong Lingyun nodded heavily: "Yes, Aunt Ning thought Huizhen had sneaked out to see me at first, because the relationship between our two families was quite strained during that time. Aunt Ning felt that the gap between our families was too big, so she didn't allow Huizhen to associate with me."

"As soon as she found out Huizhen was missing, Aunt Ning came to my house early in the morning to look for her. It was from that moment that I knew Huizhen was missing, and I instinctively thought that it must be my father who was at fault."

When Chen Xiao mentioned Zhong Zhenshan, the CEO of Xiyin Communication, he also asked:

"Now that so many years have passed, do you think it was your father who caused Kong Huizhen's disappearance?"

Zhong Lingyun did not answer immediately, but fell silent.

Chen Xiao stared closely at the changes in his expression. He could clearly discern the confusion, unwillingness, and some hesitation in his eyes.

This look was enough to tell Chen Xiao that Zhong Lingyun had not yet completely reconciled with his father in his heart.

But it was not complete, but it also showed that Zhong Lingyun might not be as suspicious as before.

Having the answer in his mind, Chen Xiao didn't insist on hearing it again from Zhong Lingyun.

Instead, he looked at the painting in his hand and said seriously:

"I think I may have found the problem with this painting I made."

"What is it?"

"The Kong Huizhen I portrayed was afraid and cried. This is what Old Lady Ning told me herself. But you are right. Kong Huizhen is not devastated enough. She is afraid of the darkness, and what people fear most is death."

"When what she feared the most, and what people fear the most, came at the same time, her condition should have been even worse."

As he spoke, Chen Xiao picked up the pen again and began to depict the scene described by Ning Rong on a piece of white sketch paper.

This time it took Chen Xiao some time, but it didn't take more than half an hour.

When the painting was repainted, Chen Xiao handed it to Zhong Lingyun.

But when he looked at the painting again, Zhong Lingyun frowned: "This... doesn't look like Huizhen at all."

Chen Xiao: "Has Mr. Zhong ever met the deceased in these years?"

"Have."

"For the deceased you have met, do they look the same when they are dying as they do when they are normally dead?"

When Chen Xiao asked this question, Zhong Lingyun was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed drastically: "Mr. Chen, what you mean is..."

Chen Xiao knew what he was asking, shook his head and said, "I just painted according to Mrs. Ning's description. A painting is just a painting and cannot represent the final outcome. And before coming to Hangzhou, I also encountered a missing person case in Shenzhen."

"Although the victim in that case had not been missing for as long as Kong Huizhen, she had also been missing for many years. Before that, everyone thought she must have met with an accident, but in the end, she was still alive and well."

"So, before the final truth comes out, no one can assert that Miss Kong Huizhen is no longer alive."

Zhong Lingyun let out a long sigh, and it was obvious that he was still concerned about Kong Huizhen's life or death.

However, this time, Chen Xiao was very pessimistic about Kong Huizhen's life or death!
