At 01:30 noon, Rong Rui packed up the evidence and knocked on the door of the office next door.

The school is over, the teachers go home for dinner, only the old principal is still waiting for them.

"Have you seen all the things?" The old headmaster asked enthusiastically, holding a big tea mug, "What's in the box? I haven't seen it for so many years."

"Some relics, books and notes." Rong Rui said, "Principal, do you still remember what happened when Shi Peng was at school?"

"I remember, why don't I remember?" the old principal sighed, "I have lived to be 65 years old, and I have taught countless students, and no one has impressed me deeply."

Just as Rong Rui speculated, Shi Peng was the best student and class monitor in the village middle school, and everyone thought he could at least pass one of the exams. However, a week before the college entrance examination, his grandmother suffered from dementia and accidentally broke her leg. .

Their family was already so poor, how could they have money to see a doctor?Shi Peng had no choice but to ask his grandpa to tell his grandma to borrow it from his classmates and friends.I finally borrowed it, and carried my grandma to the county hospital for bone setting and plaster cast...

It may be because he was too tired and under too much pressure. He failed the exams in mathematics and chemistry, which he is best at. In the end, he failed to go online with a difference of five points.

The teachers and classmates felt sorry for him and suggested that he repeat the study for another year, but Shi Peng knew the situation at home—it required money to repeat the study, and grandma needed money to see a doctor. So much money would not fall from the sky. labor to earn.

A month later, he rejected the teacher's suggestion, packed his luggage and set foot on the bus to Jingchuan City with Ma Qiang.

"At that time, I never thought that something like that would happen to him a year later." The old headmaster sighed. "At that time, he insisted on following Ma Qiang, so I thought it was wrong. Who is Ma Qiang? That's a Hooligan! Relying on how much money his uncle Wang Changyou has, he runs rampant in the village, even daring to beat the teacher! With Shi Peng's soft temper, can we get along well with him?"

Rong Rui asked: "Ma Qiang has a violent personality?"

"Isn't that right? Or can he abort his wife later?" The old principal said, "Hey! I don't understand. The two best students of that class fell into his hands, and they died and suffered. the suffering of..."

"You mean Wang Guiyu?"

"Yes, Wang Guiyu, how many years have we had such a female college student in our village! When she passed the entrance examination, the whole village was a sensation." The old principal said in surprise, "Later I heard that she graduated from university and worked in a company in Jingchuan City. After two years, he was recruited by that bastard Wang Changyou, and married his nephew Ma Qiang... Alas, what a crime, a good college student returned to the village in order to have a child, was bullied by his in-laws, beaten by men..."

Sighing twice, he said again: "The rabbit bit people in a hurry. Later, Ma Qiang was cut by someone's throat, and we whispered in private that he deserved it. That is to say, Wang Guiyu's family is empty. If there is a brother, he would have beaten him long ago." All shit comes out."

"Wang Guiyu's house is empty?"

"Yes, she is the only daughter, otherwise the family would not have desperately supported her to go to school." The old principal said, "It's a pity that her life is not good. After graduating from university, there was a car accident at home, and both parents died, so Ma forced them to go to school." The family dares to bully her like this."

Rong Rui said: "I heard that she has a lover? Some people say that it was her lover who helped her kill Ma Qiang back then."

The old principal said: "Who knows about this kind of thing? It is said that she has a lover, but no one has seen it. After so many years, the police haven't found it yet? Oh, forget it, the person is gone, besides these right The dead disrespect..."

"What did you say?" Rong Rui interrupted him in surprise, "He's gone? Wang Guiyu died too?"

"Yeah, it's been... seven or eight years?" the old principal pinched his fingers and said.

In 2012, Ma Qiang died after his throat was cut, and Wang Guiyu was arrested by the police. After several months of tossing, he was finally released because of insufficient evidence.

Although the police declared her innocent, her in-laws hated her deeply and believed that she was promiscuous and seduced wild men to kill Ma Qiang.So Wang Guiyu couldn't stay in the village at all, and left after barely passing the Spring Festival.

After that, she sold the real estate of her family and rented a house in Jingchuan City. She was admitted to her alma mater for a junior college degree, and two years later she was admitted to a postgraduate degree.

After graduating from graduate school, she left Jingchuan City to do research and development in a pharmaceutical company in the Yangtze River Delta. A few years later, the company organized excellent employees to travel abroad. She was lost with her colleagues abroad. Broken clothing and accessories were found in the crevices, and it was finally judged that he died of drowning and was buried in the sea.

"Since Ma Qiang's death, Wang Guiyu has left our Mawang Village and hasn't been back for so many years." The old principal said, "I know the news of her death. It was in 2023 that a man who went to the same university as her A student of mine came back from winter vacation and told me that her senior sister died, she died abroad, and she couldn’t even bring her body back.”

Mentioning the old headmaster, he sighed: "Oh! Everything is fate, and you can't help it at all. This girl Wang Guiyu has been smarter and harder than others since she was a child, but what's the use? You can't control your fate."

Life?What is life?Xiao Su thought blankly, fate is really mysterious and mysterious, it doesn't care whether you are smart or not, whether you work hard, or even whether you do evil or do good, it just dominates your life and everything about you...

Wang Guiyu can be regarded as a model of rural women's struggle. She studied hard when she was young, married and had children when she was young, and suffered great changes in her middle age. She still bravely returned to school and started again...

But what fate assigned to her seemed to be only suffering and torture. No matter how hard she tried to live, she still couldn't get rid of the tragic ending.

At 03:30 in the afternoon, Xiao Su and Rong Rui bid farewell to the old principal and left Mawang Village.

The car was driving on the sun-dappled village road, but Xiao Su's heart was very heavy. On the one hand, he felt sorry for Wang Guiyu's fate, and on the other hand...the clue was broken again.

When he saw the roster, he once suspected that Wang Guiyu was the one who avenged Shi Peng. After all, first love is the most unforgettable, and people with extreme personalities are likely to remember it forever.Moreover, she was once a suspect in the murder of Ma Qiang. Even if the charges are finally cleared, there is still the possibility of ordering the murder.

But she died.

In 2023, it has been six years, and the dead cannot jump out of the grave to kill and take revenge.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that he was silent, Rong Rui asked.

"Oh? It's nothing." Xiao Su said, "It seems that today's trip was in vain. Wang Guiyu has been dead for six years, so he cannot be an avenger."

"Indeed, I didn't expect that she was already dead, and she died so strangely."

"Weird? Why?" Isn't it just an ordinary falling into the sea?

"Actually, it's not just her death, but her whole life experience is strange."

Xiao Su wondered, "How to say?"

Rong Rui said: "Wang Guiyu, the only daughter of the farm family, the only female college student in the village in 1996, fell in love with the monitor, but married the enemy who killed the monitor eight years later. Then she was raped by the family and ordered her lover to kill her husband. Persecuted, left the countryside to continue studying, studied all the way to a master's degree, and became an engineer in a large company...In the end, he fell into the sea and died while traveling overseas, with no bones left."

After being summed up in such a cramped way, Xiao Su also felt a sense of disobedience—this kind of life script with ups and downs, even the pig spirit Peppa dare not write it?

"Even with such a rough calculation, her resume is legendary enough." Rong Rui said, "Now I really want to know what surprises she will give us if we fill in the details."

After a pause, he said to Xiao Su: "Brother, please help me tell Lao Sun on UMBRA, I want all the past resumes of Shi Peng, Ma Qiang and Wang Guiyu, especially Wang Guiyu's, the more detailed the better." .”

Sun Zhisheng always acted vigorously and resolutely, and after only one day, what should be investigated has been found.On Wednesday evening, Xiao Su received a notice from Rongrui after class, telling him to go to the LOFT for a meeting.

Sun Zhisheng and Wu Xingyu have "lived together" for so many days, and the naked eye can see that they have moisturized a lot, their skin is whiter, their clothes are ironed, and even their facial features seem to look a little better.

Xiao Su sincerely praised a few words, but Sun Zhisheng was not happy, and said worriedly: "No, my face is the best in a hundred years. I asked experts to analyze it at the beginning, and my memory is zero... If this If I become like you, how can I develop to the top of national security in the future?"

Xiao Su didn't expect that he was being flattered, and he was very embarrassed for a while.Rong Rui said sincerely: "My brother is just being polite. Even if he said the truth, your memory has only changed from zero to [-], which is far from my [-] points, so you don't have to worry about it." .”

"..." Xiao Su really couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a loss.

Sun Zhisheng didn't think he was disobedient at all, instead he looked happy: "Really? Really? It scared me to death, and I thought it would affect my official career."

After a pause, he muttered again: "Prepare for a rainy day, I still want to remind Lawyer Wu not to serve me too well, after all, I am an ambitious man."

Xiao Su & Rong Rui: As long as you are happy.

Rong Rui made a few cups of coffee, and the three of them sat at the coffee table for a meeting.Sun Zhisheng turned on the holographic projection, on which were the resumes of Shi Peng, Ma Qiang and Wang Guiyu: "That's all we can find so far. Shi Peng's situation is very simple. He failed the college entrance examination at the age of 18 and was sentenced to death for killing Luo Cai at the age of 19. He was under 20 when he was shot."

There is a photo of Shi Peng on the projector, which is much clearer and more handsome than the one in the photo album.His facial features are not the most exquisite, but he is quite masculine, and there seems to be melancholy in his eyes, no wonder it made Wang Guiyu's girl's heart germinate in the first place.

Xiao Su looked at his frozen 19-year-old face, felt inexplicably fond of him, and felt regretful.

"As for Ma Qiang, it's a little more complicated." Sun Zhisheng said, "He repeated grades all the way from elementary school and almost didn't finish high school. He was 21 when he graduated. The police have several records about him. Besides the Luo Cai case, there are many others. A small case of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, oh yes, and domestic violence - he was taken to the police station by his wife at least five times."

Ma Qiang's photo and Shi Peng's are completely two extremes. After reaching middle age, this guy blows up like a balloon. He is 1.8 meters tall and weighs two hundred catties.

"The most incredible thing is Wang Guiyu." Sun Zhisheng suddenly emphasized, "This woman is really a legendary figure."

Wang Guiyu was very intelligent since she was a child, and she skipped a grade in junior high school. In addition, the elementary school was a five-year system at that time, and she was only 16 years old when she was admitted to university.

She went to a three-year college, but she took a year off due to illness in her sophomore year, so she graduated in 2000.After graduation, she worked in a chemical factory in Jingchuan City for several years. After the Spring Festival in 2004, she joined Wang Changyou's company as the director of the office.At that time, Ma Qiang had just been released from prison for less than half a year.

Then there is the frivolous married life, marriage, pregnancy, miscarriage, cheating, murder... When Ma Qiang's case came to an end and she was acquitted, it was already the winter of 2012.

Because of Ma Qiang's family's strife, she sold her property in early 2013 and moved to Jingchuan City to live. She returned to school at the age of 33 to study for college, and was admitted to a master's degree at the age of 35. She graduated in the summer of 2018 and entered a well-known pharmaceutical company in the Yangtze River Delta. The company does intermediate research and development.

A few years later, in the autumn of 2023, she participated in an overseas trip for outstanding employees of the company, but unfortunately fell behind and died in the sea at the age of 43.

"After ordinary women get married and have children, they are basically stereotyped. Wang Guiyu is really a strange woman." Sun Zhisheng said, "After experiencing such a big thing as murder, she seemed to be enlightened, singing all the way, and completing the triple jump of her life. , from a rural widow to a high-level white-collar worker... Such a mentality, such tenacity, I can't believe that she could fall in love with a bastard like Ma Qiang - this guy almost got the word 'scum' on his face up."

As soon as he said it, Xiao Su also had doubts—with Wang Guiyu's character and educational background, how could he fall in love with someone like Ma Qiang?They have been classmates for so many years, so they should know each other very well.

Compared with the melancholy and handsome Shi Peng, isn't her aesthetics too abrupt?

"Wait." Rong Rui flipped to the bottom, and suddenly his tone changed, "Vietnam? Did she fall into the sea and die in Vietnam?"

Sun Zhisheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "You noticed it too? Yes, Vietnam, 2023."

Rongrui took out his mobile phone, opened another file, and projected it next to Wang Guiyu's resume: "Hong Ying suffered a flood in 2023, and her whole family died. The next year, she received an overseas inheritance and went to China to invest and do business."

The two of them looked at each other with understanding in their eyes.

Xiao Su was stunned for two seconds, and belatedly understood what they were talking about, and was immediately shocked: "What do you mean? You mean...Wang Guiyu is not dead? She, she became Hong Ying?"

The author has something to say: Sun Zhisheng: I really didn’t expect that a good wife would also affect her official career...
