Chapter Twenty-Six: What Needs to Be Guarded
"It's too late to say anything. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Grandma Li said and pulled Lin Tao up from the ground, with endless bitterness in her resentful eyes.
"Actually, I had long guessed that there would be a day, but then everything disappeared so cleanly that I thought it was over, who knew that I had taken you in by mistake, and everything was my fault." Grandma Li walked into the house as she spoke, and Lin Tao also walked in.
But Zhang Yiyi was stopped at the door by Grandma Li: "I have something I want to say to him." At the same time, he beckoned the policeman who had stopped Lin Tao just now to the door to help watch.
Grandma Li walked in front and opened a small door, and suddenly a musty smell came out of it, Lin Tao guessed that it was very likely to be the basement, but what did Grandma Li bring herself to the basement for.
Grandma Li walked slowly in front, leaning against the wall, trembling down the steps and turning on the light.
Lin Tao also followed, and couldn't help but fan the heavy musty smell in the turbid air, and then looked ahead.
The small basement is full of all kinds of books, it is spotless, it seems that Officer Li must have read books here a lot during his lifetime, there is a large desk next to it, on which are placed several case files and a notebook, Grandma Li walked to the front, sat down, looked at the notebook in front of her intently, and kept caressing it with her hand.
"I'm sure now you know about him. Last night, I had a dream that I saw him leave me, and when I woke up, I realized that he was really not with me. Grandma Li began to choke again as she spoke, but Lin Tao lost the courage to comfort her at this time, because Lin Tao knew that all this was because of himself.
"We have been together for so many years, and he has never hidden anything from me, only Wan Shuqin's case. I overheard him say this name last night, and I understood at that time that the thing that had been pestering him for so many years had finally come, but I didn't expect it to be this way. ”
Grandma Li said, recalling the snowy winter.
One day it was snowing heavily, and in the evening he suddenly received a message that he was going to go to the police, and the daughter-in-law of a nearby family was missing, and he went out at night and did not come back until the next day, looking tired. After a period of time, he continued to collect some information, as if he had already prepared, and even found some clues, and that night he was very happy to tell me that it would not be long before the case was understood, and even drank a little wine.
But suddenly one day, when he finally went to the vicinity of the house to collect evidence and investigate, all the neighbors actually recanted their previous testimony, as if they didn't remember the existence of Wan Shuqin at all, which made him very puzzled.
Just when the case took such a big turn, the attitude of their leaders began to become unclear, as if this matter was counted as an ordinary disappearance case to solve, but he faintly felt the huge conspiracy in it, so after the case was understood, he secretly investigated it secretly, and finally seemed to have found something, but since that day, he has been constantly starting to have nightmares, and finally one day the nightmare came.
Lin Tao listened to Grandma Li, sat next to her, and gently held her trembling cold hand.
One night, I remember that it was raining heavily outside, and the foot of the wall of our courtyard collapsed, and I stood under the eaves and watched him go out with a flashlight, trying to block the wall first and repair it during the day, but suddenly I saw two people in black raincoats standing at the foot of the wall in the dark.
When I suddenly saw them, I was so frightened that I almost cried out, but when I saw the two men in raincoats talking to him and at the same time seemed to be handing him something, I thought it was his colleague and had come to inquire about something urgent, so I walked back into the house.
He soon invited the two men in raincoats into the house and into his study, and out of curiosity, I eavesdropped on the wall of the bedroom.
But he found that the two men in the raincoat did not seem to be his colleagues, but more like people of higher rank than him, and in the beginning of the conversation, he always answered, yes, yes, as if the two men were constantly interrogating him.
However, at that time, we lived in a courtyard house, which was very strong, and we couldn't hear clearly, and we felt very sleepy, so we fell asleep.
Since that day, I often find that he either gets up and runs to the study to smoke, or has nightmares, sweating profusely, and keeps saying a person's name: Wan Shuqin.
He would often talk to me about ordinary cases, ask me what I think, and maybe he could get some inspiration from me, but only about the case of Wan Shuqin, he didn't say a word about me.
Grandma Li sighed and also took Lin Tao's hand: "I know that he is such a person, he will not stop if he doesn't investigate anything, and it is precisely because of this that he will become a policeman." ”
Lin Tao didn't know much about Officer Li's personality, but he knew from Grandma Li that he must be an upright person.
Grandma Li took the notebook from the table and put it in Lin Tao's hand: "In my opinion, this is his nightmare, his old enemy, but he couldn't resist him, since you have come, please put an end to this incident and fulfill his wish, I feel that he already knew some results last night, but I am sure that he must be maintaining something, so he can only use this way to protect forever, but I know that he is unwilling, he does not want the unjust case to be unsuccessful." ”
Grandma Li left the basement in despair, leaving Lin Tao alone to recall Grandma Li's words, it seems that this notebook must have been specially instructed by Officer Li to give it to Grandma Li before his death, and asked him to hand it over to himself, not the policemen outside, because he knew that once this book of recording the truth fell into their hands, the final result would be that the case would disappear forever.
Lin Tao hurriedly opened the notebook left by Officer Li and looked through the pages one by one.
It seems that this notebook was specially prepared by Officer Li for Wan Shuqin's case, and it was clearly recorded from the beginning to the end when it was forced to end, but in the last few pages, Lin Tao found new handwriting, and it seems that it was very likely that Officer Li had just written it last night.
I don't know where you come from, I don't know who you are, but I can feel your determination and courage to open this case, which is much stronger than me, here I want to thank you for your appearance, let me re-examine my life and the whole process of the case, but I have something that needs to be guarded with my life, that honor has been in my heart since the first day I was a police officer, I don't allow anyone to touch it, but I don't want the unjust case to last forever, so the next road can only rely on yourself, All I've done is give you some clues.
