I didn't pretend to be that way from the beginning.

Qiu Zheng said, "What's so strange about this?"

Bai Taotao glanced at him, "Brother and I together, the vigilance shouldn't be too low. Besides, brother was supposed to get up in the middle of the night to patrol, but ended up sleeping soundly, too strange."

Qiu Zheng pretended to be innocent, "Really? I just noticed that Lin Han also slept very deeply last night."

However, surveillance equipment was newly installed in the village, and the uploaded video confirmed that Liu Daming had indeed drank too much alcohol. He staggered into the forest, and then never appeared again.

"Where are the patrol officers that day?" Shao Yuanji asked.

The investigator looked embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Mr. Shao, the night shift staff didn't find anything unusual last night."

Shao Yuanji calmly sighed, "Okay, I got it."

The investigation was deadlocked, Bai Taotao was very worried, the others were helpless, Shao Yuanji and Qiu Zheng were calm, and Lin Han seemed to have nothing to do because he couldn't help.

He followed the village head to condolences to Liu Daming's wife.

Liu Daming's wife is a shriveled and thin woman. She is 28 and nine years old, but she is very old. Lin Han learned that there are two children in his family. The older one is in junior high school and the younger one is in primary school. When it was time to spend money, the death of the male owner was a big blow to them.

Lin Han frowned.

"What's going on." He said privately to the village chief, "If he was in junior high school, wouldn't his wife get pregnant at the age of 15 or 6? She's still a student."

The village head looked embarrassed, "We rural people get married early."

"Really?" Lin Han asked suspiciously. He knew that there are many unimaginable bad habits in remote areas, so he couldn't help stabbing the village chief. "There are so many strange things here."

The village chief didn't dare to say a word. Lin Han donated a sum of money to the village to build a primary school. Now in his eyes, Lin Han is the big donor.

The big benefactor has many questions in his mind.

He asked Liu Daming's wife, "Is your husband treating you well?"

Liu Daming's wife said numbly, "It's okay if you don't drink."

Is it okay not to drink?That means drinking alcohol, right?The suspicion in Lin Han's heart deepened. He had just heard that Liu Daming often drank alcohol, which meant that he often beat his wife.

He wanted to ask again, but Liu Daming's wife waved her hand, turned around and entered the yard, and Lin Han couldn't say anything more.

Lin Han went back full of doubts. Qiu Zheng, Shao Yuanji, and Bai Taotao went to the forest again. This time they went with the search team. The group searched the entire mountain again, but the results of the investigation Still nothing.

When he came back for lunch, Qiu Zheng couldn't lift his head, "I want to take a nap."

Bai Taotao said, "Why did you go last night? Are you so sleepy?"

Lin Han looked at Qiu Zheng, his little Qiu was curled up listlessly on the chair, like a wilting potato seedling, looking sluggish due to lack of water, Lin Han felt sorry for him, and explained to others for him , "Xiaoqiu used to take a nap every day. The conditions here are not good. He must not have a good rest at night."

Bai Taotao wanted to say, when it comes to being pampered, it's obvious that your environment, Lin Han, is usually better, right?Why is it that Young Master Lin can get used to it, but Qiu Zheng's spirit is so poor.

But before Bai Taotao could speak, Shao Yuanji nodded in agreement, "Then take a break, I've been very busy these days, and I'm tired too."

When the two returned to the room, Bai Taotao lay on the bed with his senior brother in his clothes, "Senior brother, do you feel something is wrong with Qiu Zheng?"

"How to say?"

"It feels like he doesn't care about these missing people, and doesn't care about their lives at all." Bai Taotao remembered that Qiu Zheng didn't have this attitude at the beginning, and was still very enthusiastic about completing the tasks assigned by Chen Bu.

Could it be that, after only one day, he has no interest in continuing the investigation?

This 3-minute work attitude is not acceptable.

"Qiu Zheng was originally brought here by you and Master. It's normal if he can't persist. Unlike you and me, he doesn't have a sense of belonging to this profession."

"However, I thought he would at least have some empathy and wanted to do something for the victims. After all, this is a matter of human life. Even if there are no clues, he must show a serious attitude."

The corner of Shao Yuanji's mouth twitched suddenly, "Seeing is not necessarily believing."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Bai Taotao didn't understand.

Then his senior brother stroked the dog's head.

Qiu Zheng went to bed, and Lin Han went to visit the families of other victims.

He can't help much, there is only one thing he can do-donate money.He leaves a sum of money for each family, and if there are children, there is also a quota of assistance from the foundation under his name.

That's right, Lin Han is so keen on doing charity.

He has no other hobbies, he doesn't like sports cars, he doesn't like yachts, he just likes to make and spend money.

Basically, children from rich families like this have special foundations under their family or personal names.

One is to avoid tax reasonably, and the other is to pray for oneself.It would be even better if the foundation can be exchanged for a wave of good reputation, and it will also be of great help to my career.

After a busy afternoon, when he returned to the village head's house, Qiu Zheng had already woken up and was sitting in the yard drinking tea with a bowl in his hand.

The village chief talked to him with a flattering expression.

For some reason, Lin Han disliked the village chief's family. He felt that he and his dark and strong son had a greasy atmosphere with malicious intentions. Fortunately, the village chief's wife didn't bother him very much, except for sending food. Come over and rarely show up.

When Lin Han walked into the courtyard, Qiu Zheng's eyes lit up, "Brother, you're back."

Lin Han walked up to him and sat down, "Yes."

Qiu Zheng asked him, "You visited the victim's family this afternoon, how are they doing?"

"The mood is okay, I don't cry or make trouble, I gave them some things, they are all poor people."

Lin Han recalled everything he saw in the afternoon, and couldn't help sighing, "Xiaoqiu, you don't even know where they live, some people's houses are leaky, the roof is built with a little plank, and the ground is also full of potholes. Rain is water. I heard that the annual income of these families is less than [-] yuan. There are a lot of children in the family, and there is no one to help them. Now only the mother is left as a labor force..."

There are also seven or eight-year-old girls who run outside without wearing pants, who drop out of school at a young age, and who only eat one meal a day. As the saying goes, happy families are all alike, but unfortunate families are Everyone has their own misfortunes. Lin Han was deeply touched by watching this day, and he always wanted to do something for them.

Qiu Zheng also showed sympathy, "Then we need to help them more, brother, I also have some money here, you can donate a piece for me."

"Keep your little money to buy food for yourself." Lin Han patted his head, "It's good that Xiaoqiu has this kind of heart, and leave the rest to me."

At this moment, the village head came up to him, "Mr. Lin, did you go to see those families again this afternoon?" Upon hearing that Lin Han had left a lot of money to those families, an unnatural look crossed the village head's wrinkled face. With an expression, he swallowed his saliva and rubbed his hands on the waistband of his trousers. "Actually, you can hand over the money to us. We know the situation in the village best. We all know which one is difficult and which one is barely passable. We don't bother you to run around like this. It's so troublesome."

Lin Han said politely, "It's nothing to trouble, I just want to meet them too."

"Oh, what's there to say? They're all country women who can't get on the stage. Unlike you, who are so kind and care about people who have nothing to do with you." The village chief said in a helpless tone, "We want to help them. But our village is full of poor people. There is no family that is not poor. They can’t support themselves. How can we manage others? We can only let them figure out their own way, but it’s okay now, the children are young, and the food is not enough. Too much, it's over after a while, and the days to come will be hard, and I don't know how they will live without a man in the future."

Lin Han suddenly turned cold, "Can't you live without a man?"

The village chief laughed dryly, "Look at what you said, this family must have a head..."

"If you can go out and see the outside world, you can survive no matter what." Lin Han said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to get out."

The village head laughed, "You mean a part-time job? There are old people at home and children to take care of. It is impossible to go out. If you go out, who will take care of the parents-in-law? Who will take care of the children?"

Lin Han didn't speak any more.

After the village chief left, Qiu Zheng asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Han said angrily, "Xiaoqiu, I suspect that many women here were abducted or forced to come here."

Qiu Zheng frowned, "What did they say?"

"They dare not say it, but it feels like this to me." Lin Han was not in a good mood. "In short, this village is very weird. I don't like it very much. It's too depressing. Maybe it's better for those missing men never to come back."

Qiu Zheng's eyes moved, "Yes."

"Do you think I'm a bit cruel when I say that?" Lin Han sighed, "Forget it, maybe I'm thinking too much, these women were not trafficked, and the men didn't break the law, let alone the investigation of those disappearances People are always innocent."

Qiu Zheng went up to hold his hand, "They will be fine."

In the evening, Bai Taotao and the others returned to the village chief's house and shook their heads at Lin Han who was waiting in the yard.

Another day of nothing.

A group of people sat down to eat, and everyone was not in a good mood. In order to liven up the atmosphere, Bai Taotao casually mentioned, "Actually, the scenery here is very good. If the road is repaired and developed into a farmhouse, I guess it won't be so poor. gone."

Lin Han is the best at this kind of investment. He appraised Bai Taotao's words, then shook his head, "I don't think so. It's too far from the city, and it's not worthwhile to build roads. It's not like there are other villages under Hangzhou City. , if you really want to build a resort, Fengjizhuang will definitely not be the best choice for investors."

"No, I heard that there are beautiful scenery here that cannot be seen in other places. Didn't the children in the village say that the aurora often appears at night in the back mountain, which is very beautiful."

Lin Han showed a surprised expression, "How is it possible, there can't be an aurora at this latitude, right?"
