He said that on July 7, he went out of town to do errands and took a train. While eating in the train's dining car, he met a strong young man.

After the man saw the cufflinks, he liked it very much and said that his lucky letter happened to be "y". He asked Yuan Junsheng if he could sell the cufflinks to him and he was willing to pay a high price.

Yuan Junsheng agreed at that time, took 500 yuan, took off his cufflinks and gave them to the young man.

Yuan Junsheng drew a portrait of the young man.

It's just that he was very hesitant when he drew it, because it was more than half a month ago. He was a transient passerby, and he didn't quite remember the person's appearance.

The police went to check but could not find the sturdy young man Fang Junsheng mentioned.

Of course, due to the criminal investigation technology of that era and the mobility of train passengers, it would be difficult to find such a young man.

But the police believed that Yuan Junsheng was talking nonsense.

How could a person spend 500 to buy a cufflink? At that time, even today’s prices were very high.

Even if there is such a person, Yuan Junsheng is not short of money. Will he tear off his cufflinks for 500 yuan?

This is just a cover for him to shirk his guilt.

The police speculated that Ye Lili was killed on July 7, and Yuan Junsheng's alibi was not "perfect."

The villa where he lived had a servant, but the servant said that on the evening of July 7, Fang Junsheng went back to his room after dinner and did not go downstairs for breakfast until nine o'clock the next morning.

The villa has a back door, and Fang Junsheng can definitely go out through the back door.

In other words, from after dinner on July 7 to 17 a.m. on July 7, no one saw Yuan Junsheng. He had enough time to kill and bury Ye Lili.

The police took Fang Junsheng to court.

This case was a big deal that year, and Yuan Junsheng refused to plead guilty from beginning to end.

The Y-shaped cufflink was the most critical piece of evidence. In the court's first verdict, Fang Junsheng was found guilty of murder. Originally, he was going to be sentenced to death.

However, a justice of the peace came forward to write a letter of plea. At the same time, in order to protect his son, Yuan Junsheng's father asked Ye Lili's father Ye Changdeng to write a letter of understanding. In addition, Yuan Junsheng had no previous criminal record. After comprehensive consideration, the judge sentenced him to life imprisonment.

Yuan Junsheng was imprisoned. After being imprisoned, his father appealed for his son and hired the best lawyer.

Continuously collecting evidence, we still can't find the "strong young man" that Fang Junsheng said he met on the train.

But the lawyer used other methods, that is, to obscure the time of the crime. There is no evidence that Ye Lili died on the night of July 7.

Since then, several "critical time witnesses" have appeared:

Some people said that they saw Ye Lili near the mountain on July 7, while others said that they also saw Ye Lili on July 18.

The witnesses at these times swore that since they saw Ye Lili on July 7 and July 18, Fang Junsheng was not the murderer.

Based on the benefit of the doubt being given to the defendant, the court of second instance ruled that Fang Junsheng was not guilty of murder.

In 1970, Fang Junsheng was released without charge after five years in prison.

Of course, the media and the public have long been discussing that the sudden appearance of the "time witness" was somewhat deliberate. They all said that the Fang family was rich and suppressed the matter. Ye Changdeng, the father of the deceased Ye Lili, refused to appeal. .

All said and done, that's what happened.

After he was released from prison, Yuan Junsheng bought a bungalow in the mountains, stayed at home and did not care about worldly affairs, and lived until 2022.

At the last moment before his death, he held Yuan Fugui's hand and told Yuan Fugui, "I really didn't kill Ye Lili."

He didn't want to be mistaken for a murderer who was "on the loose" until his death.

.

After Yuan Junsheng's death, his body was placed in a coffin and sent to the funeral parlor.

At night, Yuan Fugui sat alone in the mourning hall to keep vigil, looking at the coffin in front of him. A black and white photo of Yuan Junsheng was hung on the wall, and the song "I Can't Forget When We Met" was playing on the music.

Yuan Fugui squatted down and burned paper in the brazier. She kept thinking about what her uncle said to her yesterday before he died, "I did not kill Ye Lili."

Although the family kept silent about this case, Yuan Fugui still learned some information.

She thought, if the uncle was wrongly accused, maybe... there were three suspects.

The first suspect, she guessed, was her grandmother, whom she had never met before. Her grandmother died more than [-] years ago.

In fact, it is very heartless to doubt a family member like this, but after all, investigating a case requires putting aside all emotional aspects.

Her grandfather Fang Qi is a real estate tycoon, her uncle Fang Junsheng is the son of his first wife, and her father Yuan Tongshan is an illegitimate son.

If Fang Junsheng had not been in jail and had not been involved in this incident, he must have been the heir to the Fuan family, and his father would have only received some money.

But as Yuan Junsheng went to jail and was released from prison "not guilty", his impression in Yuan Qi's heart became very bad.

Yuan Qizhuan placed his focus on Yuantongshan (Fang Fugui's father). More than ten years later, Yuantongshan became the successor of Yuan's enterprise.

Could this be a conspiracy set by grandma?

In order to get higher, for example, she spent money to hire outside killers, such as "mysterious young people", to murder Ye Lili and frame the blame on Fang Junsheng?

Even if grandma doesn’t know the “mysterious young man on the train”.

Then this young man can independently become the second suspect.

Since Fang Junsheng bit him to death and had seen this person before, this person really existed. He is most likely a psychopathic killer.

For example, he may be Ye Lili's pursuer or have a special hobby. On July 7, he followed Ye Lili to the mountain and wanted to violate Ye Lili. When Ye Lili resisted, he accidentally strangled Ye Lili to death.

He then buried Ye Lili's body.

He knew that Ye Lili's fiancé was Yuan Junsheng. He might have slightly disguised his appearance and boarded the same train as Yuan Junsheng on July 7.

He bought Yuan Junsheng's cufflinks at a high price in a dining car, then took the cufflinks back to the crime scene and buried them next to Ye Lili's body.

There is also a third suspect, Ye Lili's father Ye Changdeng.

This person's character is not good.

Ye Changdeng was originally an unemployed vagrant, but suddenly became rich in 1944. Since then, his feng shui has improved and he has become a millionaire.

In 1944, another major bank robbery occurred in S City. Two gangsters stole 100 million and fled. The police could not find any clues.

It wasn't until 1972 that one of the robbers was arrested and he revealed another accomplice in the bank robbery, Ye Changdeng.

Ye Changdeng also pleaded guilty after being arrested in 1972 and was sentenced to death.

On the eve of his execution, he asked the prison guard for a cigarette after dinner, and said, "Hey, do you know? In fact, it was me who killed my daughter Ye Lili."

He laughed after saying this.

The prison guard told the police about this, and the police came and asked, "Why did you kill your daughter?"

"It's all my fault." He smiled bitterly and asked for another cigarette.

After that, the police stopped his execution and interrogated him for a period of time, but his words were always vague, sometimes he said he had a headache, and sometimes he cried loudly.

At that time, the police felt that it was impossible for Ye Lili to be killed by Ye Changdeng. She was his biological daughter. Ye Changdeng doted on Ye Lili and provided her with sufficient material security. This was really unreasonable.

The police judged that Ye Changdeng knew that he was going to be sentenced to death, so he talked about the case randomly and wanted to delay his life in the world for a few more days.

A month later, Ye Changdeng still did not explain the reason, and he was executed.

At this moment, the mourning hall.

Yuan Fugui put the pieces of paper money into the brazier. Her thoughts were very confused. Faced with the murder case of Ye Lili, which had been sealed for 57 years, she

Grandma passed away, Ye Changdeng passed away, and the mysterious young man is estimated to be eighty years old now. There is a high probability that... all the suspects may be dead.

There is no evidence at all, how can I prove my uncle's innocence?

Late at night, the door of the mourning hall opened with a creak, and a man in a black windbreaker walked in from the outside - a fat man.

Yuan Fugui continued to burn paper and asked, "If I give you 88 yuan, you can find a dead person?"

The fat man is the manager of the "See You Again" agency, a soul ferryman who can open the door to the human world and the city of longing.

He said, "Of course, as long as you still think about this person, there is a way to find this person in the underworld."

Yuan Fugui took out a check from his pocket and a photo of a young woman smiling brightly - a photo of Ye Lili.

She said, "You can write the amount of the check as you wish. I hope you can help me find Ye Lili and ask her how she died."
