In the dining room.

Chen Xihe and Lin Jianqiu sat facing each other, and no one spoke until the waiter prepared the tableware for them, poured water and left.

"How are you doing recently?" Chen Xihe started with these words.

"It's okay." Lin Jianqiu replied calmly, "Please trouble me."

How Lin Jianqiu is doing recently, Chen Xihe has already investigated it in private, not to mention there is Xue Che who comes to visit from time to time.

Xue Che didn't intend to hide it at all.

Chen Xihe opened his mouth, those polite words stuck in his throat, and he swallowed them back after a while.

Lin Jianqiu came to see him, obviously not to catch up with him.

"Almost a year later,? I got a letter."

Chen Xihe paused, put the folder aside on the table, opened it and pushed it in front of Lin Jianqiu, and continued.

"The suicide note found by the police is later than when the case was closed,? I tried to find a way to do an appraisal. That letter is their last writing."

The suicide note as evidence of suicide has only one page, and it is speculated that there should actually be an earlier page.

However, the handwriting proves that Father Lin's mental state was unstable at that time, and it is not unreasonable to tear it up by himself.

The conclusion is on the left page,? They said that they must not be able to repay so much debt, living will only make the debt more and more, and will be resented by others,? It is better to apologize with death, I just hope that those people will not go too far embarrass their son.

Irresponsible.

But it seems that he is in an extreme desperate mood, and it is not too surprising to make an impulsive move.

The creditors only hope that they can pay back the money, and naturally they will not kill them.

So the investigation on this "suicide case" is over, no one suspects anything.

Also including Chen Xihe.

Chen Xihe felt it was a pity at first, until he found the letter.

It was almost a year after Lin's father and Lin's mother "suicide".

Chen Xihe has always remembered the kindness of the two benefactors in the past. More than a year after the two passed away, he passed by the old house of the Lin family during the Ching Ming Festival. Thinking of the past, he came to pay respects.

The old house of the Lin family has been abandoned for a long time, and "Lin Jianqiu" only lived there for a while when he was young, and then his family moved to the city center.

Lin's father grew up here, and he still has some affection for the old house, and occasionally he would come back to visit his old friends and neighbors.

Until later, their business grew bigger and bigger, and their daily life became more and more busy, so they gradually came back less and less.

I don't know when it started, and they never came back. The neighbors around have moved away one after another due to demolition, leaving only the old house that has been incomplete.

Until the present Lin Jianqiu traveled across, the original owner never went back to see it.

It was just a coincidence that Chen Xihe got that letter.

When he came to the door, he only brought a bouquet of flowers, and stood quietly in front of the door for a while, when an elderly grandma wandered out to bask in the sun, that's how she saw him.

The old lady was very old, and she said that she would die soon, and she would die in her hometown, so she stayed.

But at that time, her consciousness was not very clear, her eyesight was not good, and she could see someone vaguely, so she took him as the son of the Lin family.

"Why did you come back?"

"Your parents left something for you, remember to take it with you when you leave."

Those rambling words roughly contained these two sentences.

Chen Xihe was just putting on a show so as not to upset the old man who was not very clear about his sanity, but according to the direction the old man pointed casually, he actually found a small box.

The box had a combination lock, Chen Xihe tried it for a long time after taking it back, and found out that it was Lin Jianqiu's birthday.

Inside were letters to their son, and some relics.

The date of signing the letter was later than that of the suicide note, and there was no mention of despair at all. It was just some encouragement to his son, let him go to school well, and live a good life in the future.

There are only some clues revealed between the lines.

They said that if they didn't come back, send their son to so-and-so, they had a relationship with each other and could help him through it.

It is impossible for someone who has made up his mind to commit suicide to say "if we don't come back".

Compared with the desire to commit suicide, it is more like encountering some unpredictable and resisting danger.

Chen Xihe hesitated whether to hand over the box to Lin Jianqiu himself.

Before he made up his mind, he went to the old house of the Lin family again.

He wanted to go to the old grandma to find out more details.

However, when he arrived, the grandma had passed away, and the family members who were in charge of the funeral knew nothing about the Lin family.

At the same time, we also got news that the nearby houses were completely bulldozed and rebuilt.

If he didn't come here on a whim, even if he came a little earlier or later, there would be no way to find these hidden clues.

It seems that there is God's will in the dark.

After attending the grandma's funeral, Chen Xihe began to investigate what happened back then.

At that time, "Lin Jianqiu" had already followed Ye Linyun, and Chen Xihe had met him secretly, and he was still very disappointed to see him begging for mercy.

He didn't think "Lin Jianqiu" would have the heart and energy to investigate the truth of his parents' death.

And it may be dangerous, and it will scare the snake.

Then, for several years, Chen Xihe slowly found the missing clues and evidence, and finally pieced together the truth——

"Lin Jianqiu"'s parents were murdered, not committed suicide.

"The company had problems back then because someone embezzled public funds and the capital chain broke. After that, this person put all the responsibility on your parents, and then disappeared out of thin air."

Chen Xihe clicked on a certain photo with his fingertips.

The photo has turned yellow, and it was cut and copied from a group photo. The woman on it has a ignorant expression, and she naturally carries a feeling of innocence and simplicity.

Lin Jianqiu did not have such a woman in his memory.

"It is said that she was your mother's best friend when she was young." Chen Xihe explained.

"As soon as she graduated from university, she was kidnapped by her parents and returned home in exchange for dowry money. She didn't manage to escape until her son was able to take care of himself in his teens."

"Later, your mother met a robber on her business trip, and she happened to save her life. They all thought it was fate. Your mother was grateful to her and sympathized with her, so she let her join the company."

"She stayed in the company for a total of two years, and she was very quiet for more than a year. It may be that no one noticed what she did."

"In just six months after that, she induced your parents to make unreasonable huge investments, borrowed a large amount of money on the grounds that their son was seriously ill, emptied one of the company's accounts, and defrauded others in the name of your parents. a lot of money."

No one knows how she did it in such a short period of time.

Not to mention that she was alone at the time - at least to the outside world.

A single woman who just escaped from an unhappy marriage is also Lin's mother's savior and friend. No one will easily suspect her.

Even though it was later realized that Lin's father and Lin's mother had committed suicide and apologized, the existence of this woman was invisible again.

Lin Jianqiu has seen similar cases.

To put it bluntly, this woman is a liar who has carefully planned a scam.

But with her own strength, it is very unlikely that she will be able to achieve seamlessness.

"Her husband...is she an accomplice?" Lin Jianqiu muttered to himself, "There should be others."

"Yes." Chen Xihe paused, and then continued, "Your parents originally thought she was really desperate, and with the grace of saving her life, they just asked her to return the money at first."

"That woman is very good at acting, she has been pretending to be pitiful, and maybe threatened them with you, and delayed for a while."

"Later when your parents came to their senses and were about to call the police, the woman called them out and pushed them down the stairs with her husband."

However, it is unknown whether they had planned for a long time to kill people, or whether they had a quarrel after they met because of a disagreement, and they pushed people downstairs on impulse.

All witnesses are gone.

It took Chen Xihe a long time to find enough clues and evidence to apply to the police to reopen the case.

However, as soon as the investigation was in its infancy, they learned that the murderer was dead.

"After the couple cheated the money, they went to another city far away and started their own company, but someone had the evidence of their crime and kept blackmailing them."

"Not long after we left, our house was burglarized once. The husband suspected that his wife was colluding with outsiders and beat her to paralysis in a rage. He also suffered injuries that were not visible to others, and he has been treating them secretly since then."

"The wife has been lying in bed since then, and the relationship between the two has deteriorated and they often quarrel."

"But it may be because of property, they have never divorced."

"Within two years, my husband had a traffic accident, and my wife refused to sign for the first aid. The hospital had to treat him conservatively, and he died not long after."

"When only my wife was left alone, she couldn't stand being blackmailed for a long time, and finally committed suicide."

The evidence that the two conspired to defraud the victim is still preserved, but the murderer is dead, so naturally they can no longer be held accountable.

In the end, it can only be nothing.

Chen Xihe took out a card and pushed it in front of Lin Jianqiu: "This is part of the recovered money, and most of the rest was spent by them, or transferred to foreign accounts, and it has been transferred several times over the years. Dao, it’s impossible to get it back.”

"Overseas?" Lin Jianqiu asked, "They seem to have another child."

"Yes." Chen Xihe nodded, "It should not be much older than you, but he went abroad a long time ago, and he hasn't come back to see his parents for many years. I don't know where he is now."

"They don't have any photos at home, but the child should be named He after his father."

"Hey?" Lin Jianqiu's heart moved slightly.

Is there such a coincidence?

Maybe he was thinking too much.

In Yuncheng alone, there are quite a few people with the surname He.

"I hope you don't see him, entanglement with that family won't do you any good." Chen Xihe reminded him.

"Why do you say that?"

"That family has no sense of shame at all." Chen Xihe's indifferent face finally couldn't restrain the disgusted expression.

"The neighbors of their family said that they often heard their husband and wife cursing the surname Lin for a bad death, thinking that it was the Lin family who brought them bad luck and fell into that situation."

"He's clearly a murderer, but he still says that."

The author has something to say:-

Qi Yueze's line is parallel to Brother Qiu's. To put it bluntly, these two people have nothing to do with each other now, except that there is an intersecting person around him.

The "original work" in the plot is the story of Qi Yueze being persecuted in his own home because of his blood, and after returning to China, he started a career and slapped him in the face. The part where he counterattacks and slaps the face in his main line has nothing to do with the main line for the time being, so he won't write in detail

If it weren't for the hole dug in front, he might not be mentioned too much later

In short, just take a look at the personal line about Qi. After all, most of them are related to business warfare.

If anyone is interested in him, I will make up for it later in the episode. If not, let’s happily skip him, refill
