The old woman staggered back with two paper cups, Wen Dong and Ji Lin immediately took them with both hands and thanked them earnestly.

"No thanks, no thanks," the old woman dragged out a wooden bench from the kitchen, sat down slowly opposite Wen Dong and Ji Lin, and then waved her hands, "I... have nothing to entertain you here, only white water .”

She spoke very slowly and her tone was very vicissitudes, perhaps because of her age itself, or perhaps because of her experience.

"White water is enough," Wen Dong said sincerely immediately, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

After all, they were not real tourists, but came with a purpose. Although the purpose was related to investigating the case, Wen Dong still felt a little guilty if he made the old man take too much trouble.

"No trouble, no trouble," the old lady waved her hand again, and then chatted casually, "you...where did you come to play?"

"Yashen," Wen Dong replied holding a water glass, "We came from Yashen."

"Yashen?" The old woman's cloudy eyes flashed with surprise for a moment, she sighed softly, "What a coincidence, my girl is also working in Yashen."

Naturally, Wen Dong and Ji Lin knew this a long time ago, because the old woman was none other than the mother of Chen Qiuhua, the nanny of Fu Yan's family.

But after hearing what the old woman said, both Wen Dong and Ji Lin immediately expressed surprise at the same time. Ji Lin remained calm and asked as if chatting, "What a coincidence, what does your daughter do?"

This was the first sentence Ji Yan said after he came in. The old lady turned her eyes to him, looked at him for two seconds, then smiled, and said slowly: "She is different from rich children like you. Growing up in this valley, barely finished middle school and stopped studying, what else can I do in a big city like Yashen? It’s just a job of serving people like a nanny and housekeeping.”

Although Ji Lin and Wen Dong are wearing the jackets most often worn by mountaineering tourists, they look so good, and the elegance and luxury revealed in every move is even more difficult to hide, no wonder the old lady said such words .

But obviously, the old lady just sighed like this. She didn't have any hatred for the rich, and she said again: "But it's okay, the employer I met now is a good one. She never made things difficult for her. polite…"

Saying this, the old lady stared at Ji Lin with cloudy eyes for another two seconds, and then suddenly said: "Hey, looking at it this way, the employer looks as big as you, and looks very handsome, he is a good person."

Both Wen Dong and Ji Lin realized in an instant that the "employer" in the old woman's mouth should be Fu Yan.

He is about the same age as Ji Lin, handsome, gentle and polite, so he can match him.

Ji Lin cooperated with pulling the corner of his lips, and asked calmly, "Have you seen him?"

"I saw it once," the old lady's eyes drifted away for a moment, as if she was recalling, she said slowly, "It was last year, last year...my girl picked me up once to Yashen, and her employer knew that I had gone, what did she say? They all invited me to dinner, and even sent me a lot of things before driving me back, which is really very polite."

Wen Dong and Ji Lin were not surprised, after all, this is what Fu Yan would do.

Wen Dong tilted his head slightly, exchanged a very brief glance with Ji Lin, then looked back at the old woman, smiled at the old woman, and then asked in a relaxed tone: "What season did you go? Do you like Yashen?"

"At the beginning of last year, before the weather was hot," the old woman replied, her expression seemed to be more erratic, and at the same time, Wen Dong could clearly smell the bitter smell emanating from the old woman's body, which became stronger than before. , she sighed again, and then slowly said, "I've been used to living in this valley all my life, and I'm not used to that kind of big city. In our small place, neighbors know each other well, unlike that In a big city, you can eat people without spitting out their bones."

According to the information provided by early Tang Dynasty, Chen Qiuhua went to Fu Yan's house to work as a nanny at the beginning of last year, which can be said to be the same time period as Chen Qiuhua's mother went to Yashen.

Combined with the emotion of the old woman, and the strong bitter taste in her emotions at this moment, this step by step is becoming more and more sure of Ji Lin's guess——

That is, something must have happened to Chen Qiuhua before that time last year, which made her suddenly transfer to Fu Yan's house as a nanny, and also made her elderly mother suddenly go to Yashen.

And this matter is likely to be related to her daughter, and it is also likely to be related to Fu Yan's death.

Wen Dong smiled, and did not argue with the old woman, but asked another question along the way: "Did you go to Yashen to play at that time?"

However, upon hearing this question, the old woman's expression suddenly changed. She immediately shook her head, sighed again, and said in a bitter tone, "I didn't go to play...how could it be, how could it be to play..."

Wen Dong knew that if he continued to ask this question, he would not get a definite answer. Excessive questioning might arouse the vigilance of the old lady, so he re-spoken as if chatting: "Actually, Yashen also has good places. If you have the opportunity, you can also Let's go for a walk."

Unexpectedly, the old lady waved her hands after hearing this and said: "No, I don't want to make a fuss about my old bones, and my girl will come back to accompany me soon."

Wen Dong and Ji Lin immediately looked at each other quickly again, the old lady's words revealed a piece of information that they didn't know beforehand, that is——Chen Qiuhua is going to resign and go back to her hometown!

But on the surface, Ji Lin just raised his eyebrows in surprise, and asked curiously: "Oh? Then your daughter won't work in Yashen anymore?"

"No," the old woman sighed, "I'm alone here, and she's alone there too. It's so lonely. She wants to come back, so our mother and I can have a companion."

The amount of information revealed in this sentence is too great, almost touching the core of Ji Lin's previous guess. Ji Lin was about to ask further, but the phone in his jacket pocket suddenly vibrated.

Ji Lin took it out and found that it was Tang Chu who called.

"Sorry," Ji Yan had no choice but to stand up first, and said in an apologetic tone, "You guys talk first, I'll go outside to answer the phone."

After the words fell, he turned around and went out holding the phone.

Wen Dong curled up his fingers indiscriminately, and asked what Ji Lin hadn't come to ask just now: "Your daughter never got married in Yashen, didn't she have a child?"

Wen Dong asked this sentence, and Wen Dong clearly felt his heart beating faster.

Because he knew that an answer was about to come out, and Ji Lin's guess was about to come true.

Sure enough, in the next second, the bitter taste filling the tip of her nose reached a peak in an instant. The old woman raised her hand and pressed the corner of her eyes, and sighed: "The family is gone, the child... the child is gone, what do you say about my girl? It's just that hard!"

These words hit Wen Dong's heart hard.

Because he still clearly remembered that what Chen Qiuhua told them back then was that she had a 17-year-old daughter who went to school in her hometown!

But now the old woman's words undoubtedly overturned this point, confirming Ji Lin's guess - Chen Qiuhua's daughter is dead.

If nothing else, it should be suicide.

Like Gao Xiaowen, she committed suicide at the age of 16.

And the reason for suicide may be the same as Gao Xiaowen...

Wen Dong's throat was choked, and he couldn't speak immediately, but before he could speak, Ji Yan came back, his face was still as gentle and indifferent as usual, but when he walked to Wen Dong and sat down, , but shook the phone at Wen Dong.

Wen Dong clearly saw a line typed on the interface of Ji Lin's mobile phone - Deputy Team Tang said that another new victim had appeared.

Wen Dong suddenly raised his eyes to look at Ji Lin.
