Chapter 1221: Approaching Memories

Coming to the door of Du Ze's house, the scene in the depths of Qin Yafu's memory came alive again.

A large store building built next to the gate still exists, but it looks more and more dilapidated because of its age, and the iron plaque on the door frame that reads "Huimin Store" has been changed, but the name has not changed.

The window panes of the store were blackened, and I don't know how long no one had wiped them, plus the people outside were under the bright sunlight, and when they looked inside, they couldn't see anything clearly.

The iron door, which had been painted blue many years ago, had been mottled and faded after several years of wind and rain, and only some of the previous colors could be roughly seen.

Looking at the entrance of the store, there are even more weeds, and there is only a half-meter-wide path left in the place where people usually walk, which makes people feel that there are still customers here.

This place, which was once cleaned up and tidy by Qin Sumei many years ago, has long lost its former vitality, just like an old photo that was forgotten to the corner by people, contaminated with dust, and inadvertently trampled on because of unknowing, reappearing again, unprovoked, it makes people feel distressed.

The corners of Qin Yafu's eyes were red, her heart was sour, and the unspeakable pain slowly spread and flowed through her whole body, so that she didn't even have the strength to take a step, and she didn't have the courage to look up at the few people who had arrived before them in the open door.

Outside the courtyard, some villagers gathered around, and the younger ones climbed to the firewood stacks outside the wall or the branches of large trees to watch from a distance, while the older ones directly held on to the gate and looked inside, ignoring the verbal dispersal of the police inside.

The small mountain village has always been peaceful and quiet, except for whose son was admitted to college, whose daughter married a good family, and then the excitement of going out to work and returning to the hometown, it seems that the biggest thing is the murder that happened 24 years ago.

The deceased was Du Ze, the pampered and domineering son of the family, and the murderer was his young and beautiful, but also cowardly and weak daughter-in-law Qin Sumei.

The occurrence of the incident is quite confusing, and what is even more surprising is that Qin Sumei, who has never even had the power to bind chickens, was able to escape after killing people, and even escaped without a trace.

Just after the old lady of the Du family has been looking for life and crying for many years, the young people here only listen to it as a story, and the elderly are about to remember the appearance of the person concerned, who would have thought that one day, Mr. Police would come to investigate the scene with three suspects?

Not to mention the inexplicable complicated feelings of the onlookers, including these latecomers, who are also embarrassed and faintly moved.

There were two women and four men standing in the courtyard.

Among them, there is a female policeman and a female prisoner with handcuffs on her hands, and the rest are naturally Xu Wei and Qian You, who were also tortured, plus two policemen with serious expressions.

Li Lei silently looked at Qian You inside, her eyes were sad, but she also forbeared, her hands were clenched, and she put them on the side of her legs, but she didn't make any sound, just because she promised Zheng Hao that she would not do anything that would affect the evidence collection of the case.

And Qian You seemed to have gotten the news in advance, so after meeting Li Lei's eyes, his gaze slowly moved away, falling on her bulging belly, and the corners of his mouth were tightened, without any mood fluctuations.

After precipitating her emotions for a while, Qin Yafu closed her eyes vigorously, raised her head again, and finally couldn't help but glance at her relatives who were dozens of steps away from her.

At this time, Qin Sumei lowered her eyes and looked sad, completely immersed in her emotions, and did not notice Qin Yafu's arrival.

Revisiting the old place, the most heart-wrenching person is naturally Qin Sumei, she is so distracted, it is reasonable, but she can't help herself, and she can't resist the bleak scene in front of her.

No matter how despicable and shameless the dead person behaved when he was alive, he was the pillar of this family after all, a unique treasure in the eyes of his parents, and the only hope in the heart of this old man was buried in Qin Sumei's hands.

Lin Zihang saw Qin Yafu's straight and stiff back, he put his hand on her shoulder and patted her gently, along the way, he respected her wishes and honestly took her hand, but at this time, he knew that her mind was in turmoil.

Although Lin Zihang didn't speak, just one action still gave Qin Yafu infinite courage, she inhaled hard, and unconsciously leaned in the direction of his hand.

"Let's go in first. Zheng Hao stood at the door for a while, his face calm, his eyes wandering around, and finally fell on Qin Yafu and Lin Zihang, his voice was not loud, but he reminded him very clearly.

"Let's all disperse!" When Qin Yafu and Lin Zihang entered the courtyard, the two policemen who followed behind them issued an eviction order to the villagers who were looking at the door.

The villagers were timid, but curious, and when they saw that the policemen were just talking to them politely, they were no longer afraid, and one even asked loudly: "Finally caught someone, is this to avenge Du Ze's blood hatred?"

"Don't talk nonsense, the case is still under investigation, if there is a need, I will look for you, don't join in the fun now. "The attitude of the police is not bad, they have their way of enforcing the law, but they are not necessarily strong and abusive.

"It's not that we want to join in the fun, you look at the old man and the old woman of the Du family are too pitiful, they have been crying for so many years, the old woman's eyes are almost blind, the old man went up the mountain last year, and his leg was also broken, how sad is their life? No matter what, they have to let them see the wicked punished. ”

"Mom, what are you talking nonsense? What are you pitiful? I don't know if what happened back then was retribution?" another lowered female voice reprimanded.

"Yo, every time I say it, you don't like to listen to it, but you tell me, where did I say it wrong? Look at her now, she looks like a little girl, you are the same age, right?

Why? Let the father-in-law and mother-in-law send the white-haired person to the black-haired person, but she has been at ease for more than 20 years, tsk, you look at those two men, which one is not better than your grandfather, she is a ......."

"Okay, let's go, Mom, I'm so old, my mouth is still so damaged, everyone lives their own life, and people don't get in your way......"

A woman in her fifties forcibly dragged an old lady with white hair and walked away quickly.

Li Lei didn't feel good when she heard it, after Qian You was taken away, her mind slowly sobered up, and she speculated that the case back then should be related to the woman he had been thinking about, but today when she really saw the deity, she was still a little unbearable.

Qin Sumei, who has a five-point resemblance to Qin Yafu, is indeed excellent in temperament, and her charm still exists, and she can't see many traces of time on her face, but her pale face and slightly trembling body let people know that in fact, there are taboos in her heart.

Look at the other two men in handcuffs.

One is tall and thin, Yushu is in the wind, and his bearing is extraordinary, and the other looks ordinary and generous, in fact, in Li Lei's eyes, Qian You, who is standing in front of the dragon and phoenix in this pair, is not so inferior, but it is clearly out of place, it should be said that he and Qin Sumei really have nothing to match.

And in fact, in addition to taking a first glance at Li Lei, Qian You also withdrew his gaze, and he didn't mean to covet Qin Sumei, his eyes at this time were just staring fixedly at a window in front of him and were stunned.

Including the gaze of the man with an elegant temperament, he was also not calm enough, his facial muscles trembled slightly, his hands were clenched into fists, and his white knuckles revealed the uneasiness in his heart.

Qin Sumei was also stunned for a long time before she felt Qin Yafu's gaze, she suddenly raised her head, the surprise in her eyes flashed, and then, the corners of her lips hooked slightly, revealing a bitter smile.

Qin Yafu stared at her little aunt for a moment, remembering that since she was separated when she was a child, the only time she saw her was at a product exchange meeting in Beijing.

"Alright, everyone is here, let's open the lock. It was Zheng Hao who spoke, but his gaze stayed on a large lock on the door.

"Wait, Team Zheng, wait," the tall young policeman who walked out of another door next to him quickly walked out, and he lowered his voice and said, "Team Zheng, there was a little situation, the old lady just fainted, and she just recovered, so ......"

"Just slow down, then let her open the door. Zheng Hao was a little annoyed, he had generally straightened out the course of the case, perhaps because he usually saw too many vicious criminals, so that he was indifferent to the crying and noisy old lady Du, or through the investigation, he learned that this old lady's personality is not too good.

Anyway, although he couldn't play the sympathy card, Zheng Hao's psychological scale was still slightly tilted unconsciously.

"Where is she? Is she gone?" a loud old lady's voice came from the room where the policeman had just come out, and she finally lost her breath.

"Don't make any noise, don't make any noise, the police comrades have come from afar, what are you making trouble?" another old man's voice followed suit.

"What am I afraid of? I've sued me for so many years, and my son's grievances have nowhere to be said, look at that woman, how nourishing her life is, why? Why should my son be buried in the cold ground?"

The old lady asked loudly regardless of it, her eyes were spewing fire, and she wished that she could use her eyes to make a hole in Qin Sumei's body, and then swallow it alive and peel it alive.
