Chapter 248: Speculation
Ning Cheng turned over and sat on the sofa: "That's all I can say, I've fulfilled my promise now, if you want to know more, I can't give you more information." ”
He shrugged his shoulders, an innocent look on his face.
An Xia looked at his expression for a few seconds, and found that the expression on his face remained unchanged no matter what he said, and he didn't look like he was weak or angry.
"Well, thank you, but I still have some questions I'd like to ask, okay?" Ansha paused and said, "Just think of it as a reward for the delicious food I made for you." ”
"If it's just some inconsequential questions, no problem." Ning Cheng spread his hands, picked up the grapes on the table casually, and ate them one by one into his mouth.
An Xia's face was expressionless, he was really not polite at all, and he completely regarded this place as his own.
"If there's anything you want to ask, say it now, I'm short on time." Ning Cheng smiled.
"So you climbed the wall because you were pressed for time?" When An Xia heard this, she still couldn't help but complain.
"How can these two things be mixed up?"
"Okay, that's the end of this topic, I want to ask, where is your uncle's home, I'm not talking about the vague location of the county and province, but the specific location, it must be specific to the village."
An Xia interrupted him and asked directly about what he was most concerned about.
"Tell you you can, but my uncle has been dead for many years, what can you find out if you go now?" Ning Cheng was puzzled and said, the taste of grapes spread in the mouth, and it tasted sweet and sour, it really deserved to be the world of rich people, even grapes were so delicious.
"That's my business, you just have to tell me the address." Ansha frowned.
Ning Cheng nodded: "Okay, there's only so much I can say, if you want to go, go there." ”
He wrote down the address with a pen.
"This is my uncle's house, but it's deserted."
An Xia casually folded the paper and said, "Have you ever been back all these years?" ”
Ning Cheng seemed a little surprised that she would suddenly mention this question, and was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "I haven't been back for many years, and I have even forgotten where my home is." ”
Anxia didn't continue to ask, she was not interested in his family affairs at all, and then asked a few key questions.
After a few minutes, Anxia closed the lid of the pen: "Okay, the matter has been settled, you can go, I won't send you." ”
Ning Cheng said bitterly: "Isn't it too ruthless to turn your face so quickly?" ”
"Or else? Could it be that I'm going to stay here for you dinner? Anxia said expressionlessly.
Ning Cheng: "If you want me to stay so much, I can't agree." ”
Anxia didn't respond, just opened the door and invited people out.
As soon as the door closed, Ning Cheng's expression changed, and he looked behind the door and pondered for a few seconds.
He seemed to be able to feel the breath of another person in the room just now, and there should be more than An Xia in it, but he wasn't sure if it was two people.
Is the person who was concealed Yu Chen? He had a question mark in his head.
As soon as An Xia closed the door, Yu Chen came out of the side door.
"He should have spotted me just now."
Anxia was taken aback: "When were you discovered?" Haven't you been in there all the time? And he never behaved unusually, how did you see that you were discovered? ”
"If you want to find a person's traces, not only the eyes, smell, steps, but also breath can be the way to identify a person." Yu Chen said casually, there is still a lot of metaphysics in this, but Anxia has not yet reached that level, and he only said a few words superficially.
An Xia really seemed to understand: "This is what I just asked from his mouth, he is a person who keeps his promises, and he shouldn't lie." ”
Yu Chen looked down at the address on the paper and smiled: "He can only believe half of his words." ”
Anxia: "Why? ”
"Although he won't lie, it doesn't mean that he won't hide it, so everything on this is nonsense, you just have to take a look, what to do is still up to us to check ourselves, although we haven't made any progress since the beginning of this matter, but at least we know one thing now, that is, the second uncle was killed by someone he knew, and he still wears a jade wrench on his hand, but it's a pity that there are too many jade wrenches in this world, and there are thousands of types of patterns, Talking about vague information and trying to find someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack. ”
Yu Chen's expression and tone were light, although things fell into a state of anxiety, but Yu Chen was still complacent, and he was not in a hurry about it, as if he was in sharp contrast to the people before.
An Xia sat next to Yu Chen, put her hands on his arms, and said intimately and naturally, "You are not worried at all?" I finally learned such a clue, and the result was no different from not saying it. ”
He said one of the most important information, that is, I am familiar with my second uncle, many years ago, but I still remember very clearly, my uncle is a gentle person, but not such a person can make friends, but it happens that this seemingly gentle person is actually the most alienated, so to be able to get to this point of being unguarded, must be very good friends, but as far as I know, during that time my second uncle's friends were either abroad or other places to do research, Of course, I didn't omit some people, but I think it's more suspicious than my second uncle's friends. ”
Anxia: "Who?" ”
"Of course, it's the people around my grandfather, a person who is not defensive against his friends, and even less defensive about his own people who are often by his side, so I can basically confirm that the person who started at the beginning is the person next to my grandfather."
This is not something that came up with in a moment, but it took a lot of thought and deliberation to come to such a conclusion.
An Xia's eyes widened in shock, she never thought that the truth of the matter would be like this, and she couldn't deduce what kind of mood Yu Chen was in when she came to this conclusion.
Her chest was buzzing, and it took her half a moment to come to her senses.
"You've thought of it a long time ago?" Anxia opened her mouth.
"No, I've been thinking about it since he said it was someone he knew that day." He glanced at An Xia's expression, as if he had been hit, a little funny, "Actually, you don't have to react so much, I'm not as fragile as you think." ”
Anxia's misty eyes were still looking at him.
How could he not be upset.
It took so much effort to find out about the second uncle, but in the end, it turned out that the person who did it actually pointed to his grandfather.
It simply doesn't get any more dramatic than that.
Yu Chen looked at her expression and pressed her head into his arms helplessly: "Okay, don't look at me with that expression, I'm not sad at all, although the last point is to the person next to my grandfather, but I know my grandfather, his guilt towards the second uncle is true, no matter what, the second uncle is his son, how can he not kill his own son with his own hands, but it is also possible that it is precisely because of this that grandma will choose not to forgive grandpa." ”
An Xia raised her head: "So grandma has been unwilling to forgive the old lady for so many years because of this incident?" ”
Yu Chen nodded: "I don't know what happened here, these are just my guesses, but I can feel that thinking of this step is not far from the truth." ”
Looking at it from An Xia's perspective, she could see Yu Chen's Adam's apple rolling, she blinked, she was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered: "Then according to this, isn't the target of this search already narrowed down a lot?" All we have to do now is find the murderer. ”
"It's not that simple, these things that we can all think of, would someone as shrewd as my grandfather think of? If I'm not mistaken, the grass is probably already growing in front of that person's grave, and grandpa will never tolerate the person who killed his son. ”
"So...... Ning Cheng's uncle also had an accident precisely because of this? Anxia said hesitantly.
"Hmm."
"Then why did Grandma say that it would be dangerous for you to investigate this matter, doesn't that sound simple?"
"Of course, it's not that simple." Yu Chen smiled, "This is also the part I didn't guess, the person who killed my second uncle was indeed found, but the reason has not been found, why did he have such a mind?" Is it because of something very valuable, or is it because my second uncle knows something that I shouldn't know? ”
"Who would have guessed these things?" He squinted, and it was only here that he was able to smell danger.
"So what should we do now?"
An Xia looked up at Yu Chen, waiting for his answer.
"Now? Now we don't have to do anything, just go home and stay honestly, I have a hunch, even if we don't go to find something, things will take the initiative to find the door, haven't you always disliked the uncomfortable hotel room? Then let's go home today. "Anyway, the matter of Ning Cheng has been resolved, at least in the short term, Yu Chen will not see Ning Cheng.
Anxia's eyes lit up.
That's great.
She has always had a slight recognition of the bed, and in addition to such a bed is really not soft, so in the past few days she has actually been tossing and turning and sleeping badly, and she will wake up in the middle of the night, which makes her miss the big bed at home very much, especially nostalgic, and it is great to be able to go back now.
"Then let's check out now, I've wanted to go back for a long time." She couldn't wait to pack her bags.
Yu Chen's smile slowly retracted.
He could feel that things were far more complicated than he thought.
But looking at An Xia's busy back, he felt that nothing mattered again.
