Volume 2 The Fifth Group of the Municipal Bureau's Serious Cases Chapter 183 A Peep Behind the Scenes
Leaving Xu Laohan's house, Shao Dong said to Lao Zhao: "Who is the old man who stopped in front of Xu Laohan just now, can you take us to their house to see?"
From all the previous things, Shao Dong discovered that the old man with gray hair and wearing a white practice uniform was definitely the kind of respected old man that Xihe Village said, and he was a person who was qualified to ring the death knell when he died.
Shao Dong wants to start with him, because this kind of old man often knows more than others, which is also the so-called family has an old man, such as a treasure.
"You said that old man, surnamed Zhang, lives below, not far from Xu Laohan's house, I will take you over. "Lao Zhao is really clear about this Xihe Village, no matter who is in the village, there is no one he doesn't know, and he is familiar to the point, so he is not so polite when he speaks.
Shao Dong didn't care about these, and the group of dead people followed Lao Zhao and walked towards Old Man Zhang's house.
As for Zhang Dasha, who was picked up in the middle of the mountain before, he didn't know where he was going at this time, and Lao Zhao didn't care, but just said plainly, when he arrived at this realm, as long as he didn't die, safety was no problem, and the people in the whole village took good care of him, that is, he didn't do anything all day long, as long as he was in Xihe Village, he would definitely not die of hunger or freeze.
From this point of view, the folk customs of Xihe Village are really good, but in this good folk customs, there is really a fierce murderer who is very likely to kill four people in a row.
Not long after, Shao Dong and his entourage came to Mr. Zhang's house, and Lao Zhao ran to smash the door.
Well, it's really smashed......
Because the door of Mr. Zhang's house is two very thick solid wood doors, I am afraid that my hands are swollen and I can't knock one.
The one who opened the door was Mr. Zhang, after he heard Shao Dong say that he wanted to go door to door to understand the situation, he didn't go anywhere when he went home, but carefully recalled the events of those years at home, to put it bluntly, he was waiting for Shao Dong and his party to come to the door here.
"Old man, I'm sorry to disturb you, our first one is here for you. ”
Shao Dong stepped forward very politely and said, because Mr. Zhang is a person who practices martial arts, and he is definitely more popular than shaking hands, of course, to put it nicely, it is more formalistic.
Old man Zhang is a very talkative and optimistic character, seeing Shao Dongzuo hurriedly return the salute, he also said: "How can there be, I am really flattered to let the director of the county public security bureau be the first to board the door of the cold house." ”
Don't look at Mr. Zhang as a martial artist, but in fact, Mr. Zhang's cultural heritage is also very strong, you know, in that era, families who paid attention to poverty and wealth and martial arts, and could afford to practice kung fu, reading a book has become a simpler thing.
"Old man, I want to ask, do you still have an impression of the death of Xu Laohan's father back then?"
Because of the time, Shao Dong didn't bother to be polite with Mr. Zhang, so he asked straight to the point.
Regarding this, Zhang Laohan nodded and said: "When you said you wanted to understand the situation just now, I thought about it, and when I got home before, I thought about it again, if I really want to talk about the situation of Xu Laohan's family, I am indeed clearer."
At that time, I was about the same age as his father, and I had a good relationship on weekdays, after all, we were neighbors for decades, and when he had an accident, I remember that he was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, but I really don't know anything else. ”
Shao Dong was clear about the clue provided by Old Man Zhang, and immediately asked: "Then is there a lot of poisonous snakes in our Xihe Village? People are often bitten by poisonous snakes?"
Shaking his head, Old Man Zhang said: "There are no snakes in our place at all, and I won't hide it from you, I have never seen any snakes in Xihe Village for so many years, let alone poisonous snakes." ”
It is precisely for this reason that when everyone was criticizing Xu Laohan before, Old Man Zhang didn't say a word, but buried his head in deep thought.
And it was precisely because of his silence and concern that Shao Dong was the first to come to the door.
"Then do you still remember, before Xu Laohan's father died, did their family have any conflicts with others?"
Shao Dong continued to ask this kind of question, which can only be asked by old people like Mr. Zhang, whether they remember it or not, but at least there is one thing that young people can't do now, that is, they really came from that era and really experienced it.
Regarding this problem, before Shao Donglai came, Old Man Zhang had already thought about it carefully, and said immediately: "No, not all the time, I just recalled carefully, the old Xu family is actually a very gentle family, and rarely quarrels with people, and it was different in those years, if there was any conflict between the two families, the old people in the village would organize mediation on their own."
And I just talked to an old guy, not to mention back then, in all the years we have experienced, we have not helped the old Xu family mediate anything, which means that their family has not had a dispute with any family in the village. ”
Mr. Zhang is also over 90 years old this year, and more than 30 years ago, he was also 60 years old, plus he is highly respected, if there is really someone in the village who needs mediation, he will definitely participate.
But he said no, putting aside the problem of their old people's memory, that is, there is really none.
In this regard, Shao Dong was not disappointed, because if Xu Laohan's family really got into trouble with someone to that point, others would not dare to say it, and Xu Laohan would definitely be the first to suspect their family.
Therefore, Shao Dong continued to ask tepidly: "Is there a very subtle contradiction, which may not be inconspicuous, but it did happen." ”
Shaking his head, Old Man Zhang said: "I can't remember this, if you really want to say that two people are talking or something, there must be this, the tongue and teeth are still fighting, who can say clearly, but in this case, I'm afraid that the parties can't remember it." ”
Old man Zhang told the truth, this kind of bickering, I'm really afraid that the parties concerned can't remember it.
Although there was nothing to gain, Shao Dong still thanked Mr. Zhang, and then left Mr. Zhang's house with Wang Bo and others.
Out of Old Man Zhang's house, Shao Dong looked left and right, and there was always an inexplicable feeling.
Seeing Shao Dong like this, Wang Bo said, "You also feel this way?"
Hearing Wang Bo say this, Shao Dong glanced back at him and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Being spied on?" Wang Bo said as a matter of course.
His words really scared Shao Dong, because he had always felt this way, but he thought it was his own illusion, but what he didn't expect was that Wang Bo actually felt this way!
"You feel that way, too. What's even more surprising is that Liu Jun also feels this way!
After a moment of silence, Shao Dong said, "I have felt this way from that mountain, what about you?"
Wang Bo nodded and said, "Me too, when I came down from that mountain, I always felt that someone was staring at me, and I had this feeling until just now. ”
"I didn't feel it on the mountain, I just felt a little awkward, and if you hadn't said that, I'm afraid I wouldn't have realized it was this feeling. ”
Compared with Shao Dong and Wang Bo, two former soldiers, Liu Jun is not so sensitive to the perception of danger, but Shao Dong and Wang Bo are experts in this area.
When he just came down from the hill, Shao Dong always felt that there was a pair of eyes behind him that had been staring at him, and this feeling had not disappeared when Xu Laohan was looking for death and life.
Originally, he thought that there were many people, and he had a delusion, but just now, when he came out of Old Man Zhang's house, this feeling appeared again, as if he had a pair of eyes that had been staring at him.
This feeling, like a thorn in his back, made Shao Dong very uncomfortable, if it wasn't for Wang Bo to break it, he planned to let Wang Bo and Liu Jun take a look at each other.
"Could it be that you're too tired and nervous today, why don't I feel at all?"
Unlike them, Lao Zhao didn't feel anything at all, as if he didn't know anything.
For this, Shao Dong and Wang Bo have no way to explain, let's say, the four of them are almost always together, if they are targeted, it is impossible to only stare at the three of them, right?
The only explanation is that Lao Zhao is too familiar with this Xihe Village, and he is already numb and can't feel it.
But Shao Dong knows very well that if he is the only one who has this feeling, it can be said to be an illusion, but Wang Bo and Liu Jun also have this feeling one after another, then it means that there is really someone who has been secretly staring at them.
Who could this person be?
Could it be a murderer?
Whether he is a murderer or not, Shao Dong has already decided to find out this person!
He, Wang Bo and Liu Jun glanced at each other, whether Liu Jun could understand or not, Shao Dong didn't know very well, but Wang Bo must have understood what he meant.
In fact, when Shao Dong gave Wang Bo a look, Wang Bo had already followed another path and slowly separated from Shao Dong and his party.
And Shao Dong and his entourage walked by themselves as if they didn't know anything, according to what Old Man Zhang said before, their next family was another old man of the same age as Old Man Zhang.
This old man's surname is Jiang, although he is not as respected as Old Man Zhang, but in the village, he is also a very respected old man.
Of course, when he went to Old Man Jiang's house, Shao Dong had been paying attention to his back intentionally or unintentionally, and he could feel that those eyes, which were like thorns in his back, had not left yet, and before going to Old Man Jiang's house, he wanted to gouge out these eyes!
Whether it was the murderer, or watching the excitement, because of this look, he was very uncomfortable.
For some reason, he always felt that these eyes were aggressive......
