Duan Boshan's house has three bedrooms, one for him, one for the nanny, and a study.

Ye Chuyang followed Duan Xiaoyun through the three rooms briefly. Duan Xiaoyun pushed away the second bedroom where the nanny lived, and said, "Sister Zhang sleeps in this room, and her daughter will also come to live on weekends."

Ye Chuyang: "Zhang Min still has a daughter?"

Duan Xiaoyun said: "She divorced her ex-husband and lived alone with her daughter. Her daughter usually lives on campus and only comes to live on holidays."

Ye Chuyang: "Can I go in and have a look?"

Duan Xiaoyun made a 'please' gesture.

When Ye Chuyang walked into the room, he was the first to smell a cheap and rich perfume, which made him dizzy. He saw an open bottle of lavender essential oil on the dressing table, and he realized that it was permeating the room. The rich and sweet fragrance in it is not a perfume, but an essential oil.The dressing table is filled with all kinds of skin care products in an orderly manner, most of which are cheap brands, and the whole table does not exceed 1000 yuan. There are also several colorful makeup trays, which shows that Zhang Min is a beauty-loving and delicate woman. woman.

There is also a photo on the dressing table, it is Zhang Min and a little girl of eleven or twelve years old. Although Zhang Min is in her 40s, she is an unbeatable beauty. Her bones are still slender and beautiful, and she has gorgeous makeup. , with some residual charm.The little girl she held in her arms also inherited her beauty, with her mother's shadow in her eyebrows and eyes.

Ye Chuyang noticed that the little girl was wearing a school uniform of white shirt and black skirt, so he called Duan Xiaoyun in and asked, "Is this girl a student of Changshui No. [-] Middle School?"

Duan Xiaoyun said: "Yes, she just entered the first year of junior high school this year."

Ye Chuyang asked: "What's her name?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "Wang Shiwen."

Ye Chuyang picked up the photo and saw that Wang Shiwen still had a school badge pinned to her chest, on which was the class she was studying in—Class [-], Junior One.

He found another piece of information related to Liang Youyou's case; Sister Liang Youyou also studied in Changshui No. [-] Middle School, and was also in Class [-] of the first grade, so this Wang Shiwen was also a classmate of Liang Youyou's sister.

Ye Chuyang raised his voice and said, "Boss Jiang."

Jiang Ying came in quickly, and Ye Chuyang pointed out the little girl in the photo to him, and said, "She is Zhang Min's daughter and a classmate of Sister Liang Youyou."

Jiang Ying glanced at the school badge on the girl's chest, and said with a smile, "It seems we have to find this little friend Wang Shiwen."

Ye Chuyang asked Duan Xiaoyun again: "Has the police searched this bedroom?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "I have searched, I have searched all places."

Jiang Ying took the photo from Ye Chuyang's hand, put it back on the table, and said, "I found it in the master bedroom."

Ye Chuyang and Duan Xiaoyun followed Jiang Ying to the master bedroom. Jiang Ying went straight to the corner of the closet, squatted down in front of a one-meter-high safe, and said, "What's in this safe?" thing?"

It was a semi-old gray safe with two knobs, one large and one small, and two combination locks.

Duan Xiaoyun said: "My second uncle has used this safe for many years, and I don't know what's in it."

Jiang Ying: "Do you know the password?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "How could I know the old man's password. But since my second uncle lost his sight, this safe has never been opened again."

Jiang Ying: "Why?"

Duan Xiaoyun pointed to the number plate on the safe, and said, "How does a blind person change the password? He was worried about telling others the password, so he opened a safe at the bank. The things that were put in the safe before have always been Put it in."

This safe needs to turn the circular number dial to enter the password, and a blind old man can't turn out the correct password number.

Jiang Ying asked again, "Have the police opened it?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "Not yet, only my second uncle knows the password."

Ye Chuyang squatted down beside Jiang Ying, and said, "What's wrong with this safe?"

Jiang Ying pointed to the left side of the safe and said, "The safe has been placed here for some years, and the wall behind it has never been dusty, and there is a certain color difference from the surrounding walls, but look, there is a Very narrow white border."

Ye Chuyang held his glasses and looked carefully, and found that there was indeed a white edge less than half a centimeter wide between the cabinet line on the left side of the safe and the wall. The color difference between the walls that the safe is against is not exposed to the air.

Ye Chuyang reacted immediately: "The safe has been moved? That's why the wall behind it is exposed."

Duan Xiaoyun also noticed it, and said: "This is indeed a trace of moving, is it my second uncle who moved it?"

Jiang Ying pushed the other side of the safe and slowly pushed it forward, and the white side quickly disappeared, and it was hidden behind the safe again.

Jiang Ying patted the dust off his hands and said, "It weighs fifty or sixty kilograms, can your second uncle move it?"

Ye Chuyang recalled the Duan Boshan he had seen in the materials. Duan Boshan was nearly 70 years old, 1.7 meters tall, very thin, maybe less than 100 catties, and looked very frail. Such an old man was unlikely to be able to move [-] meters. A heavy safe.

Duan Xiaoyun also said, "It's unlikely."

Jiang Ying smiled and said, "That's interesting. The safe was moved, but it wasn't Duan Boshan." He stood up, and then stretched out his hand to Ye Chuyang, "Get up first, your blood sugar is low, and you have been squatting for a long time I'll get dizzy."

Ye Chuyang supported his hand to stand up, wondering: "Could it be Zhang Min? She is the most suspicious."

Jiang Yingdao: "Then we have to see what's missing from the safe."

Duan Xiaoyun also stood up, dusted off his clothes and said, "Only my second uncle knows what's in the safe, even if Sister Zhang got the safe code and opened the safe, we can't see what's missing. "

Jiang Yingdao: "Cut open the safe first, maybe it's empty."

He took out his mobile phone and asked someone to open the safe, but Ye Chuyang snatched his mobile phone away and gave him a glare.

Only then did Jiang Ying see Duan Xiaoyun's face was very ugly. Just now, he was inferring whether Zhang Min was suspected or not, and he was looking for someone to cut the safe.

Jiang Ying turned around and rolled his eyes towards the ceiling, thinking that it's a good thing he doesn't have any feelings. The human nature of these normal people is really annoying to death.

Ye Chuyang is one of the normal people who are so annoying that they are dying. He took Duan Xiaoyun's emotions into consideration, and said softly, "Xiaoyun, how do you want to deal with it?"

When Jiang Ying heard this, he couldn't help frowning where Ye Chuyang couldn't see, and felt that Ye Chuyang's name Duan Xiaoyun was very nasty and greasy.

Duan Xiaoyun said: "Tell the police, let the police deal with it."

Jiang Ying: "Oh."

They could obviously open the safe right now to see what's going on, but Duan Xiaoyun insisted on letting the police intervene. People who are obviously not in the system are full of stubborn eyes from the system, which will only cause them a lot of trouble.

Hearing Jiang Ying's sneer, Duan Xiaoyun couldn't hold back his temper for a moment, and said with a cold face, "Boss Jiang, this is my family business, so I won't bother you to worry about it."

Ye Chuyang was very upset, and thought that Jiang Ying was annoying others by his own power. In order to prevent Jiang Ying and Duan Xiaoyun from conflicting again, he first threw Jiang Ying out, and then closed the door to talk to Duan Xiaoyun alone.

Standing in the living room, Jiang Ying took a look at the bedroom door that was closed by Ye Chuyang, then walked around the living room, looking here and there, and found again - there were many photos hanging on the background wall of the TV, All are landscape photos taken with a camera and then developed. There is also the date of shooting in the lower right corner. The latest one was taken three years ago, and the farthest one was taken eight years ago.

A few minutes later, Ye Chuyang and Duan Xiaoyun came out of the bedroom, Ye Chuyang said: "President Jiang, let's go."

Jiang Ying turned sideways, pointed to the photos on the background wall, and said, "Boss Duan, are these all taken by your second uncle?"

Duan Xiaoyun cherishes words like gold: "Yes."

Jiang Ying: "Isn't your second uncle blind?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "...my second uncle only lost his sight three years ago."

Jiang Ying's skin was as thick as a three-foot city wall, as if he hadn't seen Duan Xiaoyun's black face, he still said to himself: "Your second uncle likes photography?"

Duan Xiaoyun pointed to the photos all over the wall, and said, "Obviously."

Jiang Ying asked again, "Then where is his camera?"

Duan Xiaoyun: "What?"

Jiang Ying smiled and said, "I searched around just now, but I didn't find a single camera. Even if your second uncle stopped taking pictures after he lost his sight, he shouldn't even have a single camera."

Duan Xiaoyun: "I don't know. The police searched for it, but they couldn't find it."

Ye Chuyang listened to their conversation with fear for a while, then found a gap where no one was talking and quickly said to Duan Xiaoyun: "Xiaoyun, let's go down."

After going downstairs, Jiang Ying opened the passenger door early and waited for Ye Chuyang.

Ye Chuyang and Duan Xiaoyun stood aside and talked. A few minutes later, Ye Chuyang patted Duan Xiaoyun on the shoulder, walked towards Jiang Ying, and said, "He will go to Liugu Garden with us."

Jiang Ying asked, "What is he going to do?"

Ye Chuyang asked back: "It's about his second uncle, why can't he go?"

Jiang Ying was speechless and said, "Get in the car."

Ye Chuyang said: "I'll take his car."

He was about to leave after speaking, but Jiang Ying grabbed his arm and laughed loudly: "Boss Duan, let's drive a car. It's hard to find a parking space at the restaurant."

Duan Xiaoyun thought about it and agreed.

Jiang Ying smiled at Ye Chuyang again: "Can I get in the car now?"

Ye Chuyang did not sit in the co-pilot, but sat in the back seat with Duan Xiaoyun, because he was very polite and would not let Duan Xiaoyun take the order.

Jiang Ying slammed the co-pilot's door shut with a thud, and ran to the driver's seat to act as a driver for them.

Duan Xiaoyun and Ye Chuyang chatted about matters related to the funeral, Ye Chuyang listened carefully, and gave him some suggestions from time to time, discussing with him which cemetery is worth considering; After divorcing his ex-wife Zhang Ying, Zhang Ying took her daughter to go abroad. Duan Boshan had no one under his knees, and he died suddenly without leaving a suicide note. Several relatives had already come from Yinjiang, Wujin, Weining and other cities to fight for property.

When Duan Xiaoyun said this, he shook his head and was speechless, feeling very chilled.

Ye Chuyang had never experienced such a cold and warm relationship, so he had nothing to say to comfort him, so he had no choice but to put his hand on his lap and pat it lightly.

Duan Xiaoyun held his hand tightly with both hands, and said, "Thank you, Chuyang, you gave me a lot of strength."

Duan Xiaoyun's palm was a little damp and the temperature was high. Ye Chuyang's hand was held by him, as if wrapped in a towel just wrung out of hot water. Although it felt thick and comfortable, Ye Chuyang was not used to it .But he didn't break away from Duan Xiaoyun's hand, but lowered his head a little bit shyly, and said: "Don't say that, actually I didn't do anything for you."

Duan Xiaoyun said: "You are very warm, you just need to stay by my side, even if you don't say anything, my heart will become very peaceful."

Ye Chuyang was embarrassed to say anything more, so he just smiled, raised his head by chance, and met Jiang Ying's eyes in the rearview mirror... Jiang Ying quickly looked away, and turned around an intersection as if nothing had happened.

When they arrived at the food street, Jiang Ying parked his car near the alley where the murder occurred, and the three of them walked through the alley again.

Ye Chuyang stood in the alley, facing the back of the Liuguyuan Hotel at the end of the alley, and saw a certain glass window in the box on the third floor facing the alley reflecting the light under the sunlight.

Ye Chuyang looked at the window and said, "Boss Jiang, do you still remember that we saw a light in Song Youhai's spiritual cabin?"

Jiang Ying walked slowly to his side, looked at the window, and said, "Remember, the direction is just across the alley. If that light really exists, it should come from the Liuguyuan Hotel."

Ye Chuyang pointed to the glass that was shining white light in the sun, and said, "Does it look like that light?"

Jiang Ying also noticed: "It is daytime now, but it was night at that time. There is no sun at night, and there will be no reflection."

Ye Chuyang said thoughtfully: "There may be reflections at night."

Jiang Ying frowned: "What do you mean?"

Ye Chuyang turned to look at him, and said, "What if that light is the light in the box, shining through the glass of the box?"

Jiang Ying was inadvertently moved by Ye Chuyang, and said, "You mean, the light in Song Youhai's spiritual cabin didn't appear for a short time, but existed all the time, the light in the box on the third floor of the hotel?"

Ye Chuyang said: "It's possible."

Duan Xiaoyun came over and said, "Chuyang, I made an agreement with the lobby manager. He reserved a private room for my second uncle's birthday for us."

Arriving at the private room reserved by Duan Xiaoyun, Ye Chuyang felt more and more that his guess just now might be true, because this private room was the one he and Jiang Ying had visited when they came to find the witness Chen Cuiping last time.It was the room on the third floor facing the alley, and the only box with a window on the back wall.

Ye Chuyang opened the curtains, and the sunlight from outside the window instantly leaked in. There were also unappetizing garbage bins on both sides of the back alley, and the dark and filthy alleyway.If someone stood here and looked out like him on the night of Liang Youyou's accident, he could have a panoramic view of the whole process of Song Youhai's murder...

Ye Chuyang raised his hand to touch the smooth and hot glass, and said, "I suspect there is a third witness."

Jiang Ying leaned against the wall by the window, looked out of the window with his arms folded, and said, "Is it Duan Boshan?" He frowned as he spoke, "But Duan Boshan was blind, even if Boshan was standing behind this window when the crime happened, He can't see anything either."

The sun is poisonous and hot, and the glass is as hot as fire, as if it is about to melt.

Ye Chuyang rubbed his burning fingertips and said, "But the murderer didn't know that Duan Boshan was blind."

Jiang Ying raised his eyebrows and suddenly said, "I understand."

In the middle of the night, a murder case was going on in the dark and filthy alley. The murderer lay on the dead Liang Youyou panting heavily, and slowly stood up, but at the end of the alley, he saw a brightly lit window. An old man is standing.

The old man stood in his own dark world, staring at a pair of blood-soaked eyes for a long time...
