Chapter 57: The Roller Coaster
Half of Kango's conclusion was in line with Yan Xue's thoughts, but the other half surprised her.
"How could Wu Beibei be excluded so quickly? Wouldn't it be too hasty? She was a little puzzled.
Kang Ge stretched: "Oh, I just watched those kids doing strength training outside the training room, and it made me want to move!" In the past two days, I feel that my arms and legs have been a little stiff, why don't we run two laps in the sports field? ”
"Hey, let's get down to business! You can answer my doubts first, and don't say two laps when you go back, it's easy to say ten laps. Yan Xue thinks that Kang Ge is very good at everything, but his thinking is flustered, and people often can't grasp it, which is a little worrying.
"That's easy to explain! Just a little! Kang Ge held up a finger and shook it, "You've heard so much about Wu Beibei, what do you think she cares about the most?" Think about this clearly, won't there be an answer? ”
Yan Xue pondered, this question is really not difficult to answer.
Xu Wenrui created himself on the campus of K University a kind of image of a family with a lot of money, he is chic and handsome, and he has outstanding talents, although the actual situation is very different from the image he created, but if you don't know him very well, it is estimated that it is difficult to find, which may also be the reason why Wu Beibei deliberately fabricated his family background after being with Xu Wenrui.
As for whether she continued to make a fuss about her identity when she was with Zhang Lei later, Yan Xue didn't know, and this was not the point, the point was that Zhang Lei was a leader in another field in K University, and he was not inferior to Xu Wenrui in terms of appearance, just looking at his head-to-toe dress, it didn't look like he was financially cramped, such as Zhuang Fukai's state, so he also belongs to the kind of boyfriend that people will envy.
Since Wu Beibei had already found the next goal for herself in advance before she separated from Xu Wenrui, and later suddenly gave up the pursuit of reunion and rejoined Xu Wenrui's arms, such a rapid change of mind, it is hard to believe how deep her feelings for these two boys are, and such a choice is nothing more than which one is more beneficial to herself.
So in this way, whether she chooses to be together or separated, for Wu Beibei, the most important thing is obviously not love, let alone a specific object, but herself.
When looking for a boyfriend, you must find someone with a bright surface, you can put gold on your face together, let people have face, and it is best to have good economic conditions.
And this girl is not Deng Chun's kind of strong pay, and self-moved type, initially in order to achieve her own goals, she can be a little daughter-in-law, in Xu Wenrui's bedroom to help him wash clothes, and later found that the goods are not right, she can also turn her head and throw an olive branch to Zhang Lei, and after being with Zhang Lei, it has become a bird's style.
Such a girl, if she was angry with Xu Wenrui's entanglement, and instigated Zhang Lei or others to beat Xu Wenrui, then Yan Xue is easier to believe, if it is said that wool kills, then in order to take revenge on an ex-boyfriend, put her good youth and life into it, for an egoist, it is obviously a loss-making business.
Thinking about it like this, Yan Xue understood why Kang Ge was so happy to exclude Wu Beibei from the list of key suspects.
"I see what you mean!" She nodded to Kango, "But let's take it slow when we run, I'll call you when I have time to run in the evening!" ”
"Yo, still a night runner?" Kang Ge stretched out his little finger to Yan Xue, "Then let's talk about it, you can't release pigeons!" ”
"Are you three years old? Why do you still play with the retractor! Yan Xue couldn't cry or laugh, but Kang Ge's hand was stretched out, and she was not good at hanging others, so she also stretched out her little thumb and hooked it with Kang Ge's, symbolically shaking it twice, "I am indeed a night runner, I used to get up early every day when I was in school, and it was terrible for me!"
I'm the kind of night owl, you let me stay up late and work overtime to do anything, but it's really painful to get up early, there was a time before because I was busy, I always slept late at night, and I didn't even bother to eat breakfast in the morning, let alone get up and run in the morning, that was Xia Qing's hobby. ”
"Okay, then let's go back and make an appointment for the evening!" Kang Ge said as he handed over the phone, "The tailgating person has found it, Luo Wei, the news they just transmitted, the person who followed Xu Wenrui before is the owner of a nearby store. ”
"Yes! Do you have a clear photo? Yan Xue was very interested in the news, and hurriedly took the phone to take a look.
In the photo is a middle-aged man in his forties, when the person was photographed, he was leaning crookedly on the outside of a store, judging from the signboard on his head, it should be a hotel, the signboard is very old, it has been discolored by the sun, gray, and looks like the man, with a smell of listlessness.
"According to the popular saying nowadays, this person is called 'mourning'! Why do you feel like you can't live anymore when you look at it! Yan Xue looked at the person in the photo and felt very weird, "Can this person's identity be determined?" ”
"I only know that it's the owner of the small inn, and the others haven't been collected yet, so let's go over, and the goal is clear!" Kang Ge looked at the time, "Try to find out this person's old background within today." ”
That commercial street was not far from K University, and the location that Luo Wei sent to Kang Ge was located at a corner of that commercial street, so Kang Ge and Yan Xue also left K University and went straight there.
By eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Yan Xue had already grasped some direct or indirect information about this middle-aged man who exuded a "mourning" temperament from all over his body.
This man's name is Li Xuelin, he is an old resident in this area, forty-five or sixteen years old this year, because of the demolition and reconstruction around, he got a set of not small two-story stores, so he opened a hotel here.
If this is a small businessman who is proud of the spring breeze, of course he will not be so listless, and his face is full of life and lovelessness.
The previous half of the life of this man named Li Xuelin can be said to be similar to riding a roller coaster, and the thorns are not exciting, but they are all secondary, mainly because this roller coaster is not the traditional style of flying up and down, ups and downs, but slowly climbing, reaching a commanding height, and since then it has begun to dive downward, all the way to the bottom of the valley, and never go uphill again.
It is said that this Li Xuelin was originally quite happy, his family has a house, a car, money and a business, his wife and children are hot on the kang, he dare not say that he is rich and expensive, but at least he has a good life and is very moist.
Originally, the campus of K University was not here, at that time, Li Xuelin relied on the other two colleges and universities in the vicinity, and the business was not bad, and the other shops around were also in a similar situation, the scale was not enough, but the business was quite stable.
Later, the new campus of K University was built, and with it, the huge business opportunities brought about by the increase in the number of students.
As a result, the original scattered shops were planned into a commercial street, and gradually gained scale, and various business projects became more and more abundant, bustling and lively, and the business of people doing business here was also better.
Li Xuelin is the same, his hotel has become more and more busy, once quite famous, but because he has been renovated there for a long time, many facilities have been unable to keep up with the needs of customers, and have become old and dirty.
I thought that after this renovation would go to a higher level and make the business more prosperous, who knew that before the renovation was the highest point of his short stay on the roller coaster, after the renovation, this roller coaster swooped down to the bottom completely.
Li Xuelin's hotel began to run out of business.
Why is there no business, no one can say this, obviously the business was very good before the original redecoration, after the redecoration, the inner environment is many times cleaner and more beautiful than when it was not decorated, but no one came.
Li Xuelin thought that no one knew him after he renovated it, and thought that his store had changed owners, so he didn't buy it, so he took the original old signboard and hung it, and printed a lot of advertising cards to distribute everywhere, trying to pull up the business.
At first, with his active efforts, it was really a little effective, and the renovated hotel soon ushered in the group of customers recruited by the advertising card, Li Xuelin was overjoyed, but when the corners of his mouth were not really grinning, this short period of excitement ended.
There was a girl who had stayed in his hotel for one night and came back to make trouble, saying that she had come to K University to participate in a dance competition, but after staying in Li Xuelin's hotel for one night, there was a large area of redness and swelling on her face the next day.
Li Xuelin originally thought that it was an apology, refunded the accommodation fee, and then gave some compensation, but he didn't expect the other party to open his mouth, saying that if it weren't for this reason, he would be going to shine in the dance competition, and what kind of results could he achieve, but now because of facial allergies, all of them were ruined, so he must compensate for mental damages.
Li Xuelin refused, the two sides were deadlocked, the girl's side saw that Li Xuelin was unwilling to compensate, annoyed and angry, and began to find ways to provoke every day, make trouble for Li Xuelin, and interfere with his normal business, Li Xuelin couldn't bear it and chose to call the police, but the family played guerrilla warfare with him, Li Xuelin called the police and they left immediately, and they came back to continue after the police left.
After making a fuss for a while, Li Xuelin couldn't bear it anymore, and finally thought of installing surveillance outside his store to collect evidence, and the family finally stopped pestering, and left after taking the medical expenses for allergies.
Although this farce finally came to an end, the reputation of Li Xuelin's hotel was completely stinky, and there were all kinds of strange statements about him and his store outside, but there was nothing positive, from unqualified hygiene to bad air quality and skin damage, and even more recently, there were rumors that the hotel was haunted.
In this case, Li Xuelin's hotel's business is becoming more and more depressed day by day, and seeing that the surrounding shops are thriving because of the completion of the new campus of K University, he is indeed sad and miserable.
Originally, this incident was enough for Li Xuelin to be distressed, but at this time, God gave him another "house leak happened to rain overnight" - his wife suddenly filed for divorce from him, and he was resolute, and there was no room for maneuver.
The real reason for the divorce of the two people can't be inquired from the people around them, and they have everything to say, but nine times out of ten it is their own subjective speculation, and Li Xuelin, who is the party to the specific situation, is secretive and never mentions it.
What is certain is that after Li Xuelin and his wife divorced, the property assigned to him seemed to be the hotel where the business was already extremely bleak, and Li Xuelin himself became more and more depressed.
Yan Xue and Kang Ge knocked on the side and inquired, and the conclusion that they could draw was that there was no evidence to prove that Li Xuelin had done anything illegal or criminal, and his life experience was indeed not enough to describe the word bumpy, basically it could be said that he was relatively unlucky, and his own mental state was not stable, but these could not directly prove that he was suspected of having bad intentions towards Xu Wenrui.
Even the intersection between Xu Wenrui and him, they couldn't find it at all.
However, after confirming Li Xuelin's identity, this is also a good start, and the next things that are not clear only need to be dug slowly.
Compared with Li Xuelin, who still has too many things to confirm, Kang Ge and Yan Xue are ready to put more energy on Zhuang Fukai's side.
This boy who feels very introverted and reticent, no matter how he learned about Xu Wenrui's death, he already had impure motives when he revealed this matter to Xu Hao, and when he dealt with him before, he seemed to have been trying to direct the police's attention elsewhere, so what did he want to hide? Does the secret he wants to hide with all his might have some inevitable causal relationship with Xu Wenrui's death?
It took Kang Ge and Yan Xue nearly two more days, and after several rounds of confirmation, they finally dug out the answer to this question.
