Chapter 111 - Infant (13)
"Baby girl asking for her life?"
"I know it's hard to believe it, but I can't explain anything other than this." The old man wiped his face with his hand: "Yes, the death of my daughter-in-law once made our family feel ugly, and even when we went out, we felt that we were being pointed at." But I know my parents' temperament, they are not the kind of people who particularly care about what others say, but as long as they think that what they are doing is right, even if you scold me, I feel that I am right. When my parents-in-law come to the door, they may still feel a little guilty, but when others scold them, they feel that they are victims. They will think that my daughter-in-law is not angry, and if she gave birth to a boy, why should she be that bad grandmother and cover the child to death. If my daughter-in-law An Ansheng didn't go to her parents' house, how could she suddenly get nervous and run to someone's orchard to hang herself. As a result, not only did she die, but it also caused our family to marry a daughter-in-law for nothing, and also made our family lose money and lose face, and their reputation was ruined. After my daughter-in-law entered the ground, my parents directly turned the page on this matter, and even discussed marrying me someone who could have a son.
You are a police officer and well-informed, do you think that a person with a character like my parents will seek death because he feels uncomfortable and because he feels sorry for my daughter-in-law and children? The technology of handling cases that year was indeed not as good as it is now, but everyone did their best to check it. Neither my father nor my mother could find evidence of murder, but their deaths were so inexplicable and strange.
Also, after my father died, I had a dream. In my dream, I saw my daughter-in-law standing on the path with my daughter in her arms, with the white moonlight behind me. I heard them say to me, "There is a debtor who has been wronged." With that, they disappeared and were never to be found again. ”
The old man then sighed: "Because of this dream, I know that the matter is over, and my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law will not come back to me." After finishing the funeral for my parents, I left my hometown and went to Los Angeles, and then entered a small factory. When I first entered, the factory was very dilapidated, but later the factory director was changed, and the benefits suddenly improved. Later, I became the supervisor, and the unit was assigned a house. After I retired, I used the money I had saved to buy another apartment here. To say, my life is not very bad, I have eaten what I should eat, I should drink, and I have seen the scenery that I should see, but I am old and old, but I am alone.
Over the years, I've talked to a few people, but all of them ended up in failure. Later, I also gave up, I felt that only I could be lonely all my life to be worthy of my daughter-in-law and daughter, and worthy of my child who followed my daughter-in-law before he was born. ”
The old man stood up after saying this last paragraph, "Officer Chang, my story is finished. ”
"Daughter, died young, retribution, deserved it."
Chang Tai squinted his eyes and summed up four words.
"Oh, I remember, after the girl named An Ning begged me to tell my story to Officer Chang, she left me a message. She said that she also had the opportunity to be a mother, and she also said that she and Xu Ling also had a daughter. Alas, this girl is also a fool. Is this Xu Ling not good with his daughter-in-law? It's not that it's bad, it's that it's not so good after a long time. Otherwise, you can't find her halfway, can you? Between her and Xu Ling, even if she had a daughter, what could she do? Xu Ling's daughter-in-law didn't give birth to two daughters without him, but Xu Ling is not uncommon. This Xu Ling, just like I did back then, his mother is also patriarchal. I don't just know about it, but the whole community knows about it. ”
"Did Xu Ling's ex-wife say it?"
"No, people live a good life, even if they divorce Xu Ling, they haven't chattered anything in this community. What I'm talking about was a few years ago. At that time, Xu Ling's daughter-in-law had just conceived her second child, and Xu Ling's mother would come over to take a look every once in a while, and complained about Xu Ling and his daughter-in-law when she met people, saying that she was not angry and did not give birth to a boy to their old Xu family. also said that if this second child is still a daughter, let her beat her and have another one. Four or five years ago, at that time, everyone already knew that this birth of a boy and a girl was not about other people's daughters-in-law, so they had to find their own sons. But Xu Ling's mother is like my mother back then, quite unreasonable, not to blame her daughter-in-law for this. Later, except for a few people, people in our community were reluctant to deal with her.
Later, Xu Ling divorced his daughter-in-law, and people in our community also said behind their backs that they all knew that this matter was inseparably related to his mother. ”
The old man said, glancing into the charred house.
"Alas, this man doesn't have front and back eyes. If it weren't for Xu Ling's mother, Xu Ling and his daughter-in-law might still be living here now. An Ning, that girl, maybe she can meet a good family. ”
After the old man left, Chang Tai carefully went through the whole room again. Although it was badly burned, you can still make out what the house looked like before it caught fire.
Xu Ling's ex-wife should be a very neat woman, and the house is very neatly tied. Xu Ling also checked the circuits on the wall, just like his ex-wife said, because there are children at home, the electrical appliances and circuits in the home have been specially blacked off and fireproofed. Although fire and water are ruthless, it is not easy to watch the fire burn in such a home where even fire extinguishers are available. Unless, Xu Ling wants to die by himself.
"Team Chang, Anning's further autopsy results are out." Forensic doctor Chen Jie called Chang Tai.
"How?"
"We didn't find any traces of a third person entering the scene, and there were no traces of deliberate cleaning at the scene, because there were a lot of footprints and fingerprints in the room. Oh, there was a superfluous, but it was confirmed that it was a part-time worker hired by their family, but on the day of the accident, the part-time worker was not working. ”
"Don't go to work? Is it because of a leave of absence, or something else? ”
"We've asked someone about this. The part-time worker said that An Ning and Xu Ling are both people who pay great attention to their personal lives, and the daily cleaning of this villa is also done by An Ning herself. But because it is a villa, the area is relatively large, and it is very tiring to clean. Therefore, An Ning hired an additional part-time worker. However, this part-time worker in An Ning's house is different from other families, she doesn't have to go every day, she only goes on a fixed Sunday, cleaning from morning to evening, and does a thorough cleaning of the villa with An Ning. Although they work four days a month, they are paid for the whole month. The part-time worker is not very old, he is only 36 years old today, he has a sick husband at home, and a child who goes to kindergarten, so he cares more about this job. ”
"I care more about this job." Chang Tai grasped a key word: "Could it be that there is a conflict between peace and part-time workers because of work?" ”
"No, if An Ning thinks it's not cost-effective to hire part-time workers like this, you can completely change the working mode and working hours of part-time workers." Chen Jie said, and added: "I remember, we found a labor contract signed by her and a part-time worker at Anning's house. The contract period is new, which shows that there is no contradiction between tranquility and part-time workers. For part-time workers, working four days a month to get a full month's salary is indeed a good thing like pie in the sky, and it is estimated that our entire Los Angeles is peaceful. If such a good job is lost, it is indeed difficult to find it again. This part-time worker also understands the truth here, so she took the initiative to ask An Ning to reduce her salary. We also learned about this with people from housekeeping companies. It was confirmed that the part-time worker was not lying. ”
"Did An Ning agree?"
No, An Ning replied, saying that the reason why she paid so much was not because the part-time workers were unwilling to work by the day, but because she felt that it was unnecessary, and she preferred the current work model. I am willing to continue to hire this part-time worker, firstly because she is of a similar age, and secondly, because she is really neat and in line with her own concept of cleanliness for household hygiene. What's more, the character of this part-time worker is trustworthy to her, and her hands and feet are very clean. An Ning and Xu Ling have been married for four years, and this part-time worker has worked in the villa for two years, and in the two years, she has not touched any items in the villa, nor has there been any such thing as breaking things by mistake, so in private, her relationship with An Ning is also good.
Besides, these two or three thousand yuan, for us, it may be a month's work for the fastest hair of vinegar literature. This is 30 days a month, which is 3,000 yuan. Four days of work is still 3,000 yuan. For those of us who are poor, there is indeed a big difference. But for Mrs. Kuo, who lives in a villa like An Ning, it's nothing. Three thousand yuan, that is, the money she paid for a meal and a pair of shoes. ”
"Is that what the part-time workers are talking about?"
"No, it was An Ning who said it in the housekeeping company. At that time, many people heard about it, and some people were jealous that this part-time worker had found such a good employer. ”
"Chen Jie."
"Hmm."
"Help me contact my colleagues in the technical team, and ask them to take a closer look at the monitoring around the villa, this time, it is not An Ning or Xu Ling, or part-time workers, but suspicious people who do not live in the villa, are not villa property personnel, but frequently enter and leave the community before and after the incident, and are active near Xu Ling's villa.
Also, go to the housekeeping company to investigate. The focus of the investigation is no longer on the relationship between part-time workers and Anning, but on the relationship between part-time workers and other domestic workers. You just reminded me that some people are red-eyed, and some people envy this part-time worker for being able to find such a good employer as Anning. Not only do they pay money on time every month, but they don't have to go to work every day, why haven't they encountered such a good thing? ”
"It's impossible, even if it's red-eyed, it's not enough to kill someone else's employer for two or three thousand dollars a month, right?" Chen Jie said on the other side of the phone.
"Nothing is impossible, as you just said, for us poor people, two or three thousand is already a lot of money." Chang Tai hung up the phone and landed his gaze on the charred black wall opposite: "Even if it is a ghost, it needs to be committed with the help of human hands, and those criminals who want to evade legal responsibility usually use ghosts as a guise." It's a human, it's a ghost, you have to catch it to know. ”
