Chapter 498: The Last Letter
Yuan Muye very much agrees with Shi Lei's statement, just like this room, it stands to reason that when the only son is sent out to school, any mother will miss it in his heart, and most of the rooms he once lived in will be cleaned spotlessly.
But if you look at it again, let alone spotless, I'm afraid that no one has come in in the past ten years, which is enough to show that fakes can only imitate people's external behavior, and cannot feel the true feelings of human beings......
Shi Lei thought for a moment at this time, then turned to Ah Zhe and said, "Go and put down the rolling shutter door outside and lock it!" ”
"What do you want to do?" Ah Zhe asked with a puzzled expression.
"Let's search this hotel from top to bottom, and at the same time, we have to find out the proprietress and control it first, and see what can be asked from her mouth, there must be other important clues here...... Shi Lei said.
Yuan Muye couldn't imagine that Shi Lei's method would be so simple and rude, but thinking about it, the two of them were not good people in the first place, and it was not uncommon for them to be tortured occasionally.
It's a pity that they searched one by one and found that the hostess was not in the hotel at all, and they even found personal belongings left by individual guests in some rooms a few years ago
Obviously, these guests who had stayed in Lin Zhongge like them didn't end up checking out properly, or maybe they didn't leave the town alive at all......
Thinking of this, Yuan Muye looked out the window through the glass, and then wrote down the license plate numbers of several cars parked outside. As a result, Shi Lei found out that these cars had been reported missing many years ago.
"It's not going to be a black shop, is it? Specialized in robbing passing travelers? Ah Zhe said magnificently.
When Shi Lei heard this, he snorted lightly, "If it's really a black shop, things are simple......
After hearing this, Yuan Muye nodded and said, "It's only been a few years since I received a business, and even a black store can't run it?" Since that Sui Guangnan is the boss's son Ji Chongguang, it means that even this son is an impostor, otherwise how could he not notice the change in his mother? ”
Shi Lei listened to Yuan Muye's words at this time, and went directly to the front desk to rummage, because regardless of whether the proprietress mother and son were true or not, the perennial correspondence between them must be true, so he wanted to find the letters that Sui Guangnan had sent to the proprietress for so many years.
In fact, Yuan Muye didn't have much hope at first, who knows if the fake proprietress will "destroy all the corpses" of those letters? Outcome...... I really let Shi Lei find it in a cabinet under the front desk!
The three of them were dumbfounded when they looked at the cabinet full of letters, they didn't expect that this fake proprietress could really save all her son's letters, which was indeed a bit unexpected to them......
"There must be one or two hundred of these letters, right?" Ah Zhe said with some surprise.
After hearing this, Shi Lei took out a random letter from it, opened it and saw that it was written about some innocuous things, such as what he ate today, what news events have happened recently, and even a large number of articles will be used to describe the climate change in his city.
After listening to Shi Lei's reading of the content of the letter, Ah Zhe couldn't help but complain, "Isn't this the content of the morning news?" Who would be a son to write such a thing to his wife? Won't she watch it herself? ”
Yuan Muye shook his head when he heard this and said, "She may not really be able to see it, have you noticed that all the guest rooms here are missing something?" ”
"What's that?" Ah Zhe asked in a deep voice.
"What a TV! People here don't use mobile phones, they don't have access to the Internet, and they don't have TVs in their rooms, so how do you think they know what's going on in the outside world? Isn't it just that the people who went out send them letters? Yuan Muye said.
As soon as Shi Lei heard this, he hurriedly took out a few more letters, and sure enough, it confirmed Yuan Muye's assumption, daring to love this Ji Chongguang's sending letters back and forth year after year, just describing the world outside to his mother......
But Ah Zhe shook his head when he heard it and said, "That's not right? More than 20 years ago, there were no mobile phones and computers here, but shouldn't there be no TV?! Even if she wants to understand the outside world, then why don't you just go out and see it yourself, no one uses a rope to tie her legs and prevent her from leaving?! ”
Yuan Muye thought for a moment and said, "Although there is no rope to tie her on the surface, I feel that she must have some reason why she can't leave...... And she's not the only one, I'm afraid everyone in the town has a reason why they can't leave here. ”
"Then why were those children back then, and the fake Sui Guangnan, able to leave here?" Shi Lei raised a key question.
Yuan Muye shook his head and said, "I can't answer this question at the moment, why don't we divide the letter here into years?" Look at what Ji Chongguang wrote in the first few years of his absence? ”
Ah Zhe said impatiently when he heard it, "When do you want to see so much?" Why don't you take the letter back to your room and read it, and Leizi and I will go out to find clues! ”
Shi Lei thought for a while and said, "That's fine, but you must remember to lock the door, if the proprietress comes back and knocks on the door, you pretend not to be in the room, don't meet her alone before we come back." ”
Yuan Muye smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart...... But it's getting dark, so you two have to be careful when you go out! ”
After that, the three of them divided into two ways, Yuan Muye locked himself in his room to read the letter, while Shi Lei and Ah Zhe took advantage of the night to go to the homes of a few ordinary people to see if it was similar to the situation of the innkeeper here......
After Shi Lei and the two of them left, Yuan Muye found a cardboard box and brought all the letters back to the room, for the sake of safety, he did lock the door, and then patiently opened all the letters one by one, and sorted them out one by one according to the year on the payment.
This work seemed tedious, but Yuan Muye didn't take a while to sort out more than 200 letters, and he also found two important clues from them......
First of all, it was the first letter Ji Chongguang sent to the proprietress twenty years ago, which was a letter that Yuan Muye couldn't understand at all, and the words in it were crooked like ghost drawings.
It stands to reason that Ji Chongguang had to be in the fourth or fifth grade when he left home, shouldn't he be like a kindergarten child who can't write? Then there is the fake Sui Guangnan once sent a letter before he died, which should have been sent to Hailin according to the time calculation, but Yuan Muye did not see it in these letters......
