"Could it be that I'm wrong again?" Zhao Zhengqi stepped forward, frowning.

"Probably not, what we are asking about is Zhou Kai's name, it is impossible for there to be two people with the same name in a village." Li Ying shook her head and said.

Turning his head and seeing someone in the house next to him, Li Ying and Zhao Zhengqi exchanged glances, and walked over almost immediately, "Brother, wait a minute, let's ask you about something." ”

An old man in his sixties is walking out with a hoe.

"What's the matter?" The old man looked at Li Ying and Zhao Zhengqi with a puzzled expression.

"This old brother, may I ask if the family next to you is Zhou Kai's family?" Li Ying pointed to Zhou Kai's house.

"Zhou Kai? You're here to find that melon baby? The old man looked at the two of them, shook his head and said, "That melon baby was sentenced to life for killing someone when he was young, are you his friends or what, don't you know this?" ”

Li Ying and Zhao Zhengqi both heard the old man's words, their faces flashed with a hint of joy, they knew that they must have found the right one this time, the old man said casually and the same as Zhou Kai's situation, at this moment Li Ying couldn't wait to ask, "Brother, we are not here to find Zhou Kai, we are looking for his family, I don't know where his family has gone, why is there no one." ”

"Looking for his family, then I don't know, it's strange to say, I haven't heard them say that there are any distant relatives who do business, and a while ago they suddenly said that they want to move their family away and go to that relative's house, anyway, their family is long gone, and I haven't seen them come back." The old man shook his head.

"All moved away?" Li Ying and Zhao Zhengqi glanced at each other, and the two of them subconsciously felt something, but they couldn't say it.

"Brother, was there anything special unusual about their family before they moved away?" Li Ying asked.

"No, I said what are you doing, what is the relationship with their family, why are you asking so much?" The old man looked at the two, suddenly stopped, and stared at the two vigilantly.

"Brother, we are actually friends of Zhou Kai, Zhou Kai was sentenced to life imprisonment, asked us to come and see his family, no, we finally found it, we can't run in vain, if we don't figure out the situation, next time we go to visit Zhou Kai in prison, it's not easy to explain to him." Zhao Zhengqi smiled anxiously, took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a few hundred-yuan bills and handed them to the other party, "Brother, this is a little bit of our heart, you can tell us everything you know." ”

When the old man had a few red old heads, his eyes lit up, and he didn't care about going to the field, so he looked left and right, and hurriedly invited the two into the house.

"It's simple at home, you can sit casually, sit casually, I'll pour water for you." The old man's attitude immediately became enthusiastic before and after receiving it.

"Brother, don't, you don't have to be busy, we were entrusted by a friend to come over, and there is something else, you tell us everything you know, and we will leave after a while." Li Ying said with a smile.

When the old man heard this, he sat down, touched the cigarette pouch in his pocket, and recalled while rolling the cigarette, "If you want to say special, it's really a little, I've been neighbors with their family for so long, everyone knows the roots, I haven't seen their family drive a car before, a month ago, a car drove to his door, came two or three times, I have never seen it before." ”

"Brother, could it be their relatives and friends or something?" Li Ying asked.

"It should be unlikely, their family is also notoriously poor in the village, you don't see it, it's still a broken house, the conditions in the village are better, most of them have built brick houses, and their home has not been renovated, before Zhou Kai's melon baby had good academic performance when he was a child, and his head was smart, his parents still expect that melon baby to grow up in the future, how do you know that after high school, boarding, I don't know how to mix with a group of people in society, skipping class and fighting every day, his parents are half angry, He didn't finish high school and let him drop out of school to work, no, he got into trouble within a year or two, I heard that he fought with someone, stabbed someone to death, and the little melon baby was also ruthless, it is said that he stabbed people more than 20 times, and he was about to stab people into holes, his family was originally a lone seedling, and he was sentenced to life, and the situation at home was even worse, his parents got up early all day and worked greedily on the farm, saying that they wanted to save some money, and they wanted to find a relationship, and they could reduce their sentences in the future. As the old man spoke, he had already rolled up the cigarette in his hand and smoked it, as if he was stuck in a memory, these were all from ten or twenty years ago.

"Brother, listen to what you mean, Zhou Kai and his parents still had farm work before they suddenly moved away a month ago, right?" Li Ying frowned.

"That's right, I've been planting, his family has more than ten acres of land, and he doesn't do farm work." The old man nodded as a matter of course.

"Brother, their family just moved away, and the crops in the field are gone?" Li Ying said with a smile.

"It's not, two months ago, the rice seedlings were just planted, ten acres of paddy fields, and three or four acres of vegetables, all of which were ready to be sold for money. The old man laughed, "They don't want it, but it's cheaper for our neighbors, and they say that they are all distributed to us, don't you see that I have to go to the field to work after eating at noon." ”

Li Ying and Zhao Zhengqi listened to the old man's words, their eyes were full of deep doubts, from the old man's words, they heard not only abnormality, but also suspicion of Zhou Kai's sudden disappearance, for a poor family, to be able to give up so many fields and crops that they used to rely on for survival, this is not normal in itself, moreover, the old man's words have already said, and Zhou Kai's family has been neighbors for so long, and they have never heard of any rich distant relatives.

Glancing at each other, Li Ying's eyes were complicated, while Zhao Zhengqi was more shocked.

"Brother, do you know where Zhou Kai's parents moved to?" Li Ying asked as she tried to maintain a calm mood.

"I don't know this, I haven't heard of any distant relatives who do business before, but maybe there are, we are outsiders after all, how can we know so clearly." The old man shook his head.

When Li Ying heard this, a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes, which was equivalent to not being able to find Zhou Kai's family.

"Does Zhou Kai have any sisters or sisters or something?" Li Ying asked again.

"Yes, his parents gave birth to four, three women, only Zhou Kai is a male, and he is still counting on the inheritance, and now he is in prison and sentenced to life, which is over."

Li Ying didn't have the heart to listen to the old man's nagging, and when she heard that Zhou Kai had three sisters, Li Ying hurriedly asked, "Brother, do you know where his three sisters are married?" ”

"I know where to marry, but I don't know which family to marry, one went to the county to work in the early years, and also married to the county, but where the home is, I don't know, the other ......"

The old man talked eloquently, and in the end he didn't even say an actual address, Li Ying listened, full of disappointment.

When he came out of the old man's house, it was already half an hour later, Li Ying asked everything she could ask about the situation of Zhou Kai's family, and in the end, in addition to knowing that Zhou Kai's parents no longer knew where to move, and did not know where Zhou Kai's three sisters were married, but fortunately, the old man knew the name, Li Ying wrote down the names of Zhou Kai's parents and sisters, and checked through the public security organs, which may not be impossible to find out.

"Brother Zhao, after hearing so much, what do you think?" got into the car, Li Ying sat quietly, turned her head and asked Zhao Zhengqi.

"Hey, it's pretty bizarre." Zhao Zhengqi sighed, he didn't dare to think about it, if there was really any suspicion, then Zhou Kai accidentally killed Li Yanpei, wouldn't someone have carefully designed and framed him? Zhao Zhengqi really didn't dare to think about it anymore, the people behind the scenes dared to do this, so bold, Zhao Zhengqi felt cold when he thought about it, and people without a background would never be able to make such a seamless thing, Zhao Zhengqi was a little afraid in his heart, if the conjecture was true, then he might be involved in a big conspiracy if he was not careful, and a small person like him would undoubtedly be crushed to pieces.

Zhao Zhengqi suddenly blamed himself for talking too much the night before, why did he tell Li Ying about drinking with his friends, he originally just had the idea of purely saying it to Li Ying, even if the friend and another prison guard who had contacted Zhou Kai were transferred out of Chengbei Prison, Zhao Zhengqi didn't think much about it, he felt that it was just a normal transfer between the same system, and Li Ying had suspicions, Zhao Zhengqi also wanted to help Li Ying check it out together, it didn't matter, he felt that there could be no mastermind behind the scenes, So I didn't feel scared in my heart, but now, what I heard was really abnormal, and Zhao Zhengqi also began to feel fearful.

Li Ying didn't pay attention to Zhao Zhengqi's expression, and continued to say at this moment, "Brother Zhao, I think we can use the public security organs to find out the whereabouts of Zhou Kai's family, what do you think, after all, if we find someone ourselves, it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is relatively easy for the public security organs to find a person." ”

"Don't, Li Ying." Zhao Zhengqi shook his head violently.

"Brother Zhao, what's wrong?" Li Ying saw Zhao Zhengqi's reaction so big, and said strangely.

"Li Ying, don't you think it's bad? If, I mean, if there is really any conspiracy, and you are so swaggering that the public security organs want to find out the whereabouts of Zhou Kai's family, do you think the black hand behind the scenes will find out? On your own, do you think you can stand up to them? That will only put you in danger. Zhao Zhengqi looked at Li Ying, and between his words, he only mentioned Li Ying, but did not mention himself, which somewhat revealed his thoughts, Zhao Zhengqi did not dare to mix blindly anymore, he was a man with a family and a mouth, there was really a conspiracy, and he couldn't afford to mix.
