In fact,there were no ghosts or gods.That was all feudal superstition,and I immediately dismissed this thought from my mind.
"Wait a minute.Didn't you say that Amanda Smith was an abandoned baby before?"
Lily Thompson suddenly remembered this.After getting my affirmative answer,she opened the computer again.First,she obtained Amanda Smith's photo through the information,and then she conducted a face recognition system search based on Amanda Smith's photo.
This search would take some time.During this period,more and more people came back to the village.These people were all the family members of the villagers who had died.
I went to soothe the emotions of the family members.Among them,there were some people who were emotionally out of control,and it was very troublesome for me to deal with them.However,I didn't feel annoyed or angry because I thought it was my responsibility.
All the victims had family members who came to see them,except David Brown.His body was still lying on the cold floor of the living room in his house.
During this time,I met some people of my own age in the village,including some acquaintances who knew Amanda Smith.
A person who had a good relationship with Amanda Smith told me that the reason why Amanda Smith suffered from depression was that she was mocked by her classmates because of her family situation and appearance after junior high school,as well as many subsequent setbacks.
Especially after graduating from junior high school,because she didn't have the money to go to school,she went to work in a factory.After working in the factory for a long time,coupled with an unexpected illness later,she developed depression and finally committed suicide by jumping off a building.
I also asked about David Brown.However,to my surprise,even after all these years,David Brown was still as honest and kind as he was when he was a child.He was always smiling and very likable.
Such a person actually committed suicide.Everyone in the village said they didn't believe it and said that someone must have deliberately faked David Brown's suicide.
"That's not right.I clearly saw Amanda Smith half a year ago.How could she have committed suicide a year ago?"
Uncle Tom voiced his doubts.Some other people in the village also raised questions when they heard this.They had also seen Amanda Smith within the past year.
"Oh,the person you saw wasn't Amanda Smith.Amanda Smith told me that she met her own relative,her younger sister.The person you saw should be her sister."
Wang Xiuhong,the girl who had the best relationship with Amanda Smith and who had told me about Amanda Smith's experiences over the years,spoke up.Her words shocked us all,because everyone in the village knew that Amanda Smith was an abandoned baby.
"I'll tell you,Amanda Smith's sister isn't a good person.Amanda Smith told me that she met her by chance when she was working in the factory.At that time,because her sister looked so much like Amanda Smith,everyone mistook her when she first entered the factory.
Later,they asked and found out that the girl was also an abandoned baby.What was her name...Amy Smith.Yes,it was Amy Smith.She was the same as Amanda Smith.When she was abandoned,there was a note on her.But according to Amanda Smith,her sister had a worse life than her.
She was abandoned in the city when she was a child and was adopted by a family.Later,when the family had a son,they sold her out as a laborer when she was in primary school.A primary school child went to do hard labor.Tsk tsk,those adoptive parents were really beasts."
Wang Xiuhong became more and more excited as she spoke,and we listened intently.
