Dressed as a scum who abandoned his wife and daughter

"What?"

When the old village chief heard the man say that the pig had run away, his expression changed instantly, and he was stunned.

"Why did the pig run away?"

The man originally wanted to come directly, but after running for a few steps, he stopped immediately and shouted at the top of his voice, "If you don't watch, just run away!"

The old village chief also shouted: "You let people look for them, and they all look for them!"

After he finished talking about the man, he said: "I've already found it, turn off the spoon and let me report to you."

"I know, I will go back when the police comrades I accompanied from the capital have finished watching the courtyard."

After the old village chief finished speaking, the man didn't speak, and turned around and ran away quickly according to the original road.

"Comrade policeman, let the big guys watch the joke." The old village chief turned his head and showed his big yellow teeth in a smile. Before Luo Yanyu could ask the doubts in his heart, he took the initiative to say to Luo Yanyu: "The pigs in the village are not honest. , Our village is very poor, a pig costs 4000 yuan, if it is lost, it will kill people.”

Luo Yanyu didn't say anything, but exchanged glances with Professor Luo Fei.

Professor Luo shook his head lightly at him, Luo Yanyu frowned and ordered: "Lead the way."

The old village chief knew that Luo Yanyu was the leader of these people, so he was extra hospitable to him. The chief of the police station from the capital was different from the ones in the county. .

Lin Xi and Chu Muqing followed behind.

Lin Xi walked side by side with her, looked at the gloomy sky, and suddenly said softly: "It's going to snow soon."

Guan Hanchuan said that the weather forecast shows that there will be heavy snow today, and they probably won't be able to return to the county.

After Chu Muqing was silent, she asked her in a low voice: "What do you think?"

Lin Xi paused: "You mean——"

Chu Muqing glanced in the direction of the old village head, then quickly looked away, and looked at her: "Do you think it has something to do with the village?"

Lin Xi frowned, then calmly put his arms around her shoulders, pretending to be an intimate couple, put his thin lips close to her ears, and said in a low voice: "It's hard to say whether it's related, but this village definitely Something is wrong."

There is indeed something wrong everywhere in this village, and it is not limited to the folk customs here, which are extremely repulsive to outsiders, but the indifference in their eyes makes people feel horrible.

She didn't know how to describe this feeling. It seemed that people here, no matter the old man or the child, didn't have the fireworks that a living person should have in their eyes, especially when they gathered together, like A group of small black insects with carapaces stared at them dully and indifferently with their black eyes.

It was a creepy feeling.

Very unreal.

So unreal.

Chu Muqing responded, "En."

Afterwards, Lin Xi let go of her shoulders, Chu Muqing clasped her frozen hands, and asked her, "Why don't you wear something thicker?"

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, shrank his head, looked at her with a smile and said, "It's not very cold, the temperature here is one or two degrees higher than the capital, which is already pretty good."

Lin Xi came out in a hurry, didn't even take the salute, and took the train, so she was traveling lightly, but there was another point, she wanted to replicate the process of Chu Muyun's journey from the capital to Dongguan County.

If you want to come to Dongguan County from the capital, there is only one direct train. At the beginning, Chu Muyun was very likely to come by train in the middle of the night.

It's obviously faster to come here by car than by train, but Chu Muyun's treatment in the Chu family was very bad, and she was just an adult at that time, and the Chu family didn't buy her a private car.

When she was on the road, she kept thinking, did Chu Muyun come to Dongguan County alone?

Or did someone come with her?

According to what the outside world said, Chu Muyun eloped with someone, committed suicide after eloping, and died in Dongguan County.

Lin Xi bent her knuckles, thinking while walking, only to realize later that Chu Muqing would look at her from time to time.

"What did you think of?" Looking at each other, Chu Muqing said softly.

Lin Xi shook his head.

She was thinking all over her head, Luo Yanyu and that Professor Luo obviously had more clues than her, and the serious crime team would never provide her with clues anyway, besides, Luo Yanyu was very vigilant towards her , suspected that she was the murderer in that case.

If she wanted to know other clues, Luo Yanyu would definitely not tell her.

Compared to Luo Yanyu, who was full of vigilance and rejection towards her, the police officer Luo who seemed easy to talk gave her a more calm feeling.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi walked a few steps faster, followed that police officer Luo, and started talking.

"Officer Luo." Lin Xi asked her with a sideways smile, "How do you know that we will definitely meet again?"

A smile floated in Professor Luo's eyes, he turned his head to look in Chu Muqing's direction, then turned his head to look at her and smiled: "We will meet each other if we are destined."

Lin Xi: ...

She never expected such an answer, and the other party's ambiguous words were said in front of Chu Muqing, which really surprised her.

The corners of Professor Luo's lips curled up, as if he liked to see her flustered reaction, and said again: "I am a doctor of criminal psychology, and I am currently teaching at the Beijing University of Political Science and Law."

Lin Xi was taken aback for a moment: "Aren't you a policeman?"

"I am in charge of assisting Officer Luo to analyze this case. He is the one who is investigating."

Lin Xi nodded: "So it's like this..."

But no matter what, Luo Yanyu brought her here instead of other serious crime team members, which is enough to prove the weight and ability of this Professor Luo.

Not long after, the old village chief brought several people to a dilapidated courtyard.

"That's it, officers, let's go in."

This courtyard is separated from the densely populated brick houses of the villagers, and there is only this courtyard across the bridge.

The ground around the yard is full of rubbish, and the pungent sour smell is drilled into people's noses even in the cold winter.

Luo Yanyu frowned, covered his nose and asked, "Does your village treat this place as a garbage dump?"

As he spoke, he kicked away the mineral water bottle under his feet. He kicked the bottle away, fell on the wall outside the yard, and then fell into another pile of garbage.

"It's not bad." The old village chief explained: "We just throw the garbage here, and we don't dump the dirty things in the latrine here. Then build a big shopping mall, who knows how it was planned.”

Luo Yanyu was not in the mood to listen to what he said about their village in the future. Since Chu Muyun's case is being re-investigated, the place will be protected soon. No one can move without understanding the case.

"That lady just now..." The old village head looked thin and very old, but in fact he was quite flexible, carefully avoiding the garbage under his feet.

I don't know where the door of the yard went, and I can see the burnt situation inside at a glance.

As the old village head walked into the yard, he said to Luo Yanyu: "I still suspect that the people in our village killed it. How dare we have the courage to kill someone? If it spreads, the cubs in the village will still read it." Not going to college anymore?"

The "that lady" that the old village head was referring to was Chu Muqing.

Luo Yanyu also noticed that something was wrong just now. When a foreigner died in the village, instead of calling the police immediately, he had to be cremated in a hurry, which was very problematic in the first place.

However, before the case is clarified, the old village chief cannot be interrogated like that, and as a police officer, he cannot directly ask "did you do it?"

Even if you think so in your heart, you have to tell the facts and tell the evidence.

A group of people followed him into the yard.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment when he walked in. As far as he could see, the burned yard was a mess.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a ruined wall. Even a few dwarf trees in the yard were burnt and pitch-black. It has long been impossible to tell what kind of tree it is. It looks like it should be a fruit tree. The whole yard except the periphery The walls are still relatively intact, but the inside is a mess, with tiles scattered all over the place.

It is not difficult to imagine how violent the fire was.

There are only two houses in the north, and the fallen beams and frames can be seen from the burnt. At a glance, there is no furniture inside.

Even the burnt furniture was gone, and she turned her head to look in the direction of the courtyard entrance.

The door is gone too.

In other words, after it was burned here, the villagers moved all the things that could be moved, whether they were burned or not?

What kind of village is this...

All the behavior of the villagers made her incomprehensible.

Luo Yanyu and Professor Luo looked around, and the old village head followed them.

The old village chief said, "You guys are really endless. Back then, even the police in the county said it was a suicide, so why did you end up being killed?"

Lin Xi paused, and took the opportunity to express his doubts: "Officer Luo, when the Dongguan County police found Chu Muyun's body, wouldn't they immediately investigate the person who eloped with her? The forensic doctor identified it as a suicide, so it really became an ordinary suicide case? Have you investigated with that forensic doctor? And the person who eloped with Chu Muyun was found?"

Luo Yanyu stopped, turned around and looked at her, his heavy eyes fell on her face: "Miss Lin Xi, I think I need to remind you that the police are handling the case now."

"Sorry." Lin Xi lowered his eyebrows, and said to him again: "I didn't intend to guide you in handling the case. I have always trusted the police."

Luo Yanyu frowned: "Even so—"

"Officer Luo..." Chu Muqing said suddenly, "We didn't hinder the police from handling the case, but as the family members of the victim, we are eager to know the truth."

Luo Yanyu looked at Chu Muqing.

In fact, he had never understood that Lin Xi was engaged to her sister Chu Muyun, and in the end Chu Muyun eloped with someone and committed suicide.

Chu Muqing was willing to marry Lin Xi again, and the two seemed to have a good relationship.

"I can understand." After Luo Yanyu finished speaking, he looked at Professor Luo and said, "This place has been destroyed like this, and after such a long time, it is obviously difficult to find evidence."

Professor Luo withdrew his gaze, and before he could speak, the old village chief said, "Isn't it? The big guy went in and out before, and didn't think there was a problem with her death. It must have been suicide!"

Luo Yanyu looked at the old village head and repeated: "In and out?"

The old village head choked.

Luo Yanyu put it bluntly: "After the fire broke out, you repeatedly entered and exited here, and removed the things in the house, which led to the destruction of the evidence!"

"That... that was after the police comrades in the county had finished their investigation, thinking that no one wanted the things here anyway, so they didn't want to waste things, comrade police officers, this can't be blamed on us!" Old Village The chief explained, and said: "Besides, this house belongs to our village. The child's mother died again, and she never came back. Even if the mother-in-law didn't burn to death here, everything here belongs to us. .”

The old village chief babbled and babbled, all of which were useless sophistry.

Lin Xi was in no mood to listen, and asked, "What's the name of the last owner of this house?"

"What?"

"Owner, who was the last person who lived here?"

The old village chief understood, and hurriedly said: "Didn't you ask these questions before, why did you ask again?"

"As far as I know, this house has no fixed owner. I want to know who lived here when Chu Muyun died?"

"No one! No one! How many times have I said it!" The old village head said impatiently: "The last one is an old bachelor, a beggar from another village, and he has no place to go, so he lives here. Wait until we find him Time to throw him out."

"Name." Lin Xi said concisely.

"Where do I know where to go?"

Lin Xi pondered for a moment, then asked, "No one in your village knows the name of that man?"

"I don't know..." the old village head said, "It's useless to know. When the woman was burned to death, the old bachelor had been gone for several months."

Lin Xi closed his eyes.

According to what he said, then the clue is broken again.

She forced herself to calm down, looking at the burning mess in front of her.

This is a house that anyone can live in. For some reason, Chu Muyun came here and entered this house.

At that time, the original body was also brought to Dongguan County by her father Duan Pingchuan. Duan Pingchuan brought her to live in the county seat of Dongguan County and was about to go abroad.Then, for some reason, the original body came to Jiashao Village from the county seat.

When the fire broke out, Yuanchen and Chu Muyun were trapped together.

Duan Pingchuan may have followed Yuanshen, and then happened to rescue her in the fire, but Chu Muyun was burned to death.

When the fire ignited, both Yuanchen and Chu Muyun were in a coma.

Why did she and Chu Muyun faint?

Was it knocked out?Or was he drugged?

Or was the original body really disgraced because of the divorce and wanted to kill someone in a fit of rage, but they both fainted because of a certain accident while arguing with Chu Muyun?

But this is unreasonable.

Lu Jail's death is enough to prove that the murderer cannot be the original body.

Has Police Officer Na Luo asked someone to check the so-called evidence in Lu Jail's hands?

At this time, she heard Professor Luo ask Luo Yanyu: "When will the colleagues from the forensic appraisal team arrive?"

"tonight."

Professor Luo approached Luo Yanyu a little closer, and reminded: "Should we notify our colleagues in the county to come over and seal this place first?"

"Well, I'll tell you now."

Luo Yanyu responded, took out his mobile phone and walked aside to make a call.

Lin Xi's gaze followed Luo Yanyu's back.

She looked at the tall and unsmiling Police Officer Luo, and couldn't help thinking.

Where did the Crime Squad go?

Is this person capable of finding out all the truth?

"It's snowing, Lin Xi."

Chu Muqing raised her hand and caught a falling snow petal in her hand.

Lin Xi looked at her, and Chu Muqing raised her chin slightly.

Following her gaze, Lin Xi looked into the sky, only to see that the entire sky had become extremely pale.

Luo Yanyu came back from the phone call, looked around with Professor Luo, and finally decided to wait for the people from the capital to come.

Whether they can find useful evidence depends on them, but they don't hold out much hope.

A very rare heavy snowfall fell in Dongguan County, and a thin layer fell on the ground after a while.

When several policemen from the county arrived and Luo Yanyu briefly explained the situation, those people sealed off the entire courtyard, and specially reminded the village chief that no one was allowed to enter from then on, otherwise they would be held accountable responsibility.

The old village head immediately nodded in agreement, saying that he would notify the whole village through the loudspeaker that no one would come in again.

After everything was done, the old village head personally sent the group of people out of the village.

They returned the same way from that tunnel, and when they went out, Lin Xi found that all the men in the village were holding hoes, looking for something all over the village.

They are very quiet, neither loud nor noisy.

When he came to the entrance of the village, Lin Xi asked the old village chief: "Does every household in your village raise pigs?"

The old village chief hesitated for a while, then clicked his lips: "No."

"With a hoe, do you want to kill a pig when you find it?"

The old village head quickly shook his head: "If you can't beat him to death, how can you kill pigs?"

Lin Xi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

Luo Yanyu and Professor Luo left first, and Lin Xi didn't intend to leave. According to Police Officer Luo, someone from the capital should come to collect evidence tomorrow, and she has to wait another day.

And it was snowing too hard, so Guan Hanchuan also suggested going to the small hotel by the road outside the village to stay overnight temporarily.

Lin Xi thought it was nothing, but Chu Muqing was wronged.

The environment of the small hotel is definitely not much better. A girl like Chu Muqing will definitely not be used to sleeping.

Guan Hanchuan joined the accompanying people and escorted Lin Xi and Chu Muqing to the hotel.

Guan Hanchuan took out a few cigarettes to share, and when they delivered them to Lin Xi, Lin Xi shook his head: "Quit."

Guan Hanchuan shook his head with a smile: "It's good to quit, it will save you from lung cancer."

He raised his hand and handed the cigarette to Chu Muqing: "Madam Lin, come!"

Chu Muqing was slightly startled, and then said, "I won't."

It took only one cigarette, and a few people arrived at the hotel. The environment was indeed bad, and the smell inside was not good, but almost no one lived near Jiashao Village, at least they could try to be quiet.

Lin Xi and Chu Muqing opened a room. The room was very small, like a small space cut off. The sound insulation of the house was not good, and the movement of people walking outside could be heard clearly from inside.

There is only a double bed, and a TV. If you want to take a shower, you have to plug in the water heater. The shower faucet was unplugged by someone.

Fortunately, the bed looked clean, and it was fine to fall asleep without taking off my clothes at night.

Lin Xi sat down by the bed, and whispered to Chu Muqing: "I will stay here for a few more days, you can drive back tomorrow."

No matter what, Chu Muqing couldn't stay in this weird village.

Chu Muqing shook her head, and said seriously: "You can stay, why do you let me go?"

Lin Xi found her hand, interlocked her fingers, and looked at her: "The children need your care."

Chu Muqing considered for a second, and then said firmly, "I won't leave."

Lin Xi frowned.

Chu Muqing said to her: "I'll leave with you when the matter is settled."

Lin Xi shook his head, and smiled wryly: "But it won't be resolved in a while, you stay here with me, in case of any danger..."

"Then I will spend time with you." Chu Muqing lowered her voice and said to her softly, "Lin Xi, I know what you are worried about."

Lin Xi was taken aback by these words.

She felt that something was wrong with this village, so she wanted Chu Muqing to leave quickly and go back to the capital. No matter what happened, it was impossible for the murderer to do it under the noses of so many security guards.

"I'm not afraid of danger, I can also protect myself." Chu Muqing said again: "You are not afraid, what am I afraid of?"

Lin Xi opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

"Chu Muqing..."

"Ok?"

After being silent for a while, Lin Xi finally let out a breath.

This girl seemed to really want to live and die with her.

But she still couldn't put her in danger, no matter what Chu Muqing said to her, she would let her go.

Lin Xi was about to say something more.

At this moment, there was a hasty knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?" Lin Xi asked.

No one answered, but the knocking on the door continued.

Lin Xi paused: "Speak."

"It's me...Miss, can you save me..."

It was a man's voice. To be precise, judging by the voice, it should be a young boy, a boy whose voice is still changing.

Lin Xi frowned, thinking about whether to open the door.

"I beg you..."

"I know you are not from the village, can you save me, please..."

The boy's voice was crying and sounded very weak.

Lin Xi walked to the door vigilantly, turned the doorknob, and opened a gap.

The boy outside the door immediately pushed the door open, then rushed into the room, and then closed the door firmly.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment. The boy was wearing a big red padded jacket worn by village women. He was very beautiful, especially his eyes, which looked like a young starlet.

He suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lin Xi: "Miss, please help me, I was abducted by them... Please, take me away!"
