Chapter 151: Ask the old man about the past

The old man's eyes became as if he was extremely frightened, and his eyes gradually showed uneasiness, and his body even trembled more than before. The more the old man avoided Officer Zhang, the more Officer Zhang wanted to know what had happened back then.

The lights in the interrogation room were extremely dim, and the old man looked up and saw Officer Zhang sitting there, looking at him intently. The old man's head was lowered at this time, and there was a sense of wanting to avoid it in his eyes, and suddenly he hugged his head with his hand.

"I don't know anything, I don't know anything, don't ask me anymore, I don't know if you ask me." The old man's mood just now was still relatively good, and he became extremely excited at this time.

Officer Zhang looked at his wrong expression, hurriedly left his position, walked in front of him and squatted down. He pulled away the old man's hand holding his head, and said with his mouth next to his ear: Old man, it's okay, don't be nervous.

After that, Officer Zhang personally comforted him, and kept supporting him with his own hand, and then he gradually looked up at Officer Zhang, as if it was the eye between two relatives.

Officer Zhang's attitude towards him was somewhat softened compared to when he came in just now, and the old man gradually calmed down.

Obviously, Officer Zhang guessed that this person was very reluctant to recall the events of 40 years ago, and he must have experienced some major trauma 40 years ago, otherwise he would have been so emotional when he mentioned 40 years ago.

Officer Zhang was thinking about this person's spirit, and it was likely that there was already a problem, but how should he ask next, so that he could come up with what he wanted.

Officer Zhang pondered for a while, he looked at the old man in front of him, so he handed over a glass of water, and the old man had no intention of drinking it now. Finally, Officer Zhang took the water away again, and then the old man suddenly opened his mouth to speak:

"Actually, I don't remember exactly what happened 40 years ago, but I think what I know is still helpful to you. Forty years ago, when I was 22 years old, I worked long hours in a large family. ”

Officer Zhang sat there and listened to him continue:

"Because my family was relatively poor, and at that time, I often did some very heavy physical work, and I would often accompany my parents to go up the mountain to chop a lot of firewood and sell it for money."

At this time, the old man's expression looked a little sad, and he gradually raised his head to look into Officer Zhang's eyes and continued:

However, such peaceful days did not last long, and suddenly a big event happened some day, that is, the great war of that year, when many people did die in the Fanjia area. If I remember correctly, two of the four major families back then, the Liang family and the Chen family, invested the most manpower. ”

"Then why is it that the Liang family and the Chen family have invested the most manpower, and is there any reason for this?" Officer Zhang asked questioningly.

"Of course, there is a reason, I just know that the two families seemed to be fighting for something at that time, and their two families have a certain origin in history. To the outside, it was the Fan family that had a war, but in fact, it was really the struggle between the internal forces of the two big families, so it led to the Fan family area. The old man in front of him sat there and said with a determined look in his eyes.

"Why did they lead the war to the prosperous family area, if it is just a struggle between two big families. That's not a war. Officer Zhang said at this time.

"Yes, it was originally a struggle between the two families, and the reason why it was able to lead to the Fan family area was because the Fan family saved a person who ran out of the Liang family at that time in the process of the fight between the two families."

Officer Zhang listened more and more fascinated, and he continued to ask:

"After that, what happened after that, just now you mean to say that the great war back then was closely related to this person."

The old man listened to this, pondered for a long time, and then said:

"That person is one of the most critical figures, and then the Chen family and the Liang family fought for this person in the Fanjia area, and that person was eventually hidden by the Fanjia family."

Later, it caused such a big war, in fact, sometimes I can't understand that the loss of the Fan family was also very heavy at that time. What was the reason why the person in charge of the Fan family at that time, who is now the father of Fanli, was able to pay such a big price to save him.

"In that war, my father also died, and when I found him there, he was already dying. My father told me to hurry away, saying that it would be reduced to ashes on the morning of the second day, and then he died and didn't say anything to me, which is why the battle suddenly became so quiet overnight. The old man's tone of voice at this time seemed to have a sadness that could not be concealed.

Officer Zhang looked at the old man in front of him thoughtfully, as if recalling the events of many years ago, which made him fall into the grief and anger of the year again.

"You mean that your father told you to hurry away and leave him alone. He also told you that this place will be reduced to ashes tomorrow morning, which means that he is likely to be reminded that he knows something. In other words, so many corpses on the battlefield were burned by fire, so they were reduced to ashes overnight. Officer Zhang speculated.

"Yes, I haven't seen my father since. At that time, the Fan family was not allowed to mention the war again, and the Chen family and the Liang family also fell into a very calm state. The old man's eyes seemed to be filled with tears.

Officer Zhang looked at the old man's expression as if it was tears accumulated over the decades, for so many years, he had not left it, he had not said it, and he must still have not met someone who could say it.

Officer Zhang looked at the old man in front of him and fell into deep thought again, he knew that maybe the cases he had investigated before were no longer simply cases of unknown bones, and he was probably related to the great war decades ago.

And for the war of that year, they must have some understanding, otherwise none of them will be able to solve the next case.

However, after Officer Zhang told them some of his thoughts, he was approved by Officer Song and Officer Li. Because they also think the same way, if they don't have a clear understanding of some of the things back then, these cases in front of them are indeed not too easy to solve.

Only by finding the root cause of the problem can we fundamentally solve the problem, which is easy to understand, but it is very capable. Because they have not only paid time and energy, but also greater human, material and financial resources.
