Not to mention the old woman, even I, an observer, after listening to her explanation, felt that these policemen who came to make the transcript seemed to be trying to cover up something. But I don't know the truth behind this, or the old woman.

In short, the old woman was guilty of Ash's death, and when the night came, all sorts of thoughts would rise in her mind - she wondered, could it be that Ash died because of her words?

If he had said something else at the time, would Ash have survived, and now it's another situation? How did Ash die, could it be that he sacrificed himself to save others?

Similar to this hypothesis, the old woman said that she didn't know how many times she had done it, but every time she did it, her guilt deepened. Because the result of each hypothesis seems to be much, much stronger than reality.

The reason why the old woman wants to find out the truth about the case three years ago is to know the real cause of Ash's death. She firmly believes that Ash's death is not so simple, but there is no way to obtain the truth by relying on an elderly person like her.

Before leaving, we calmed the old woman and let her recover her emotions, and agreed with her that we would definitely investigate the truth of the case and tell her as soon as we had news.

After leaving the old woman's house, I discussed it with Lin and decided to go to Mr. Li first - if Ash is a student in Class A in the third year, then the person who is most familiar with the case that happened three years ago must be Mr. Li. But here a suspicion arises, and Lynn and I both feel that something is wrong.

This doubt is, if Ash is really a student of Class A in the third year, then why didn't Mr. Li mention anything about Ash to us at all? Although the current disappearances do not appear to be related to the kidnapping case of three years ago......

However, I still think that there is no need for Mr. Li to hide it from us, and there have been situations where there is a need to bring up this matter, but Mr. Li has not mentioned a word. Lin and I felt strange from this, and we also accelerated the pace of going to Teacher Li's house.

I prayed in my heart, hoping that I was just thinking too much, after all, if this suspicion is established, Mr. Li will also become one of the suspects in the disappearance case.

When Lin and I arrived at Mr. Li's house, two incredible things happened. One is that after Teacher Li and I found her house according to the address she gave, we found that the door of Teacher Li's house was not locked, but it was just hidden, so we went in without ringing the bell.

Another thing is that when we went in, we found that Ms. Li was having a fierce "quarrel" with her husband......

No, is this really a quarrel? No matter how you look at it, it's a one-sided beating. We have met Teacher Li's husband, the silent man who took care of her in the hospital a few days ago.

But now his features were very obvious—he was left with pants all he was wearing, and his thin rib-like body was curled up on the ground like a boiled shrimp, and he was holding his head and moaning in pain.

And the one who was abused and beaten next to him was Teacher Li. She was dressed as an OL at work, with the sleeves of her white shirt rolled up, and a long, thin stick in her hand - I don't know where to find such a flexible and smooth stick, which was whipped her husband's body.

Barely pumped, Teacher Li was about to let out a screaming roar, while Teacher Li's husband screamed in pain, his body trembled violently and contracted, and he subconsciously wanted to avoid the whipping.

Perhaps due to excessive investment, Mr. Li, who had a hint of madness on his face, took several more strokes after we entered the room before discovering our existence. When Mr. Li saw us, the change in his face was very exciting.

First stunned, then panicked and helpless, and finally from anger to sadness and despair.

"Woo ......"

Teacher Li stumbled in his footsteps, then sat down directly on the ground and began to cover his face with his hands and sob. Lin quickly walked up and grabbed Ms. Li, while my eyes kept on her husband.

When the attack stopped, I saw that Mr. Li's husband gave me and Lin a weak look in his eyes, and then he turned over, staring blankly at the ceiling, and slowly closed his eyes after a long time, without making any sound.

And I don't know if I was wrong, but when Lin and I were about to go downstairs with Mr. Li, we saw a tear in the corner of Mr. Li's husband's eye, and his face was buried in the light, making it impossible to distinguish clearly.

After arriving at the café downstairs, Ms. Li went to the bathroom first, and because she was crying so much, she had already spent all her makeup. But as soon as Mr. Li left, I talked to Lin about it.

I am, do you think it's too exaggerated? What do you mean, Lynn?

I pouted towards the bathroom room, of course, referring to the fight between Mr. and Mrs. Li. This is properly domestic violence, and it is the opposite, domestic violence against the husband by the wife. Looking at her like that, it is estimated that she had just come home, and she didn't change her clothes or take off her makeup, so she quarreled with her husband directly.

Lin whispered that it would be best to ask me in person about this kind of thing, and there was no point in discussing it behind our backs. So when Teacher Li came, Lin and I didn't hide it, and immediately asked why she fought with her husband.

Of course, Lin and I agreed that it was Ms. Li who unilaterally beat her husband, however, in order not to anger Ms. Li, we decided to use tactful expressions.

After hearing this, Mr. Li first lowered his head with a guilty face, apologized to Lin and me, and said that he was very sorry, so that we could see this kind of shameful appearance. I waved my hand and said it didn't matter, every family had a difficult scripture to read, which was Mr. Li's own problem.

"It's just," I picked up my coffee and took a sip, raised my eyes to look at the depressed Mr. Li, and said, "Quarrels are quarrels, I think violence should be avoided, presumably Mr. Li, you should know better, right?" Domestic violence can constitute a criminal case. ”

Teacher Li trembled slightly, then lowered his head and nodded gently.

“…… I'm sorry, I'll change it, but ...... This time I really couldn't hold back. As she spoke, Teacher Li began to weep softly again, and Lin sobbed and handed her a tissue.

I asked curiously, if you don't care, Mr. Li, can you tell us the cause of your quarrel with your husband? Mr. Li sniffed, and then smiled sadly, saying What else could it be, isn't it just the little in the TV series that is about to be rotten?

As soon as I heard him say this, I immediately grasped the feeling, and cautiously asked tentatively, is it my husband cheating? Teacher Li nodded, then sneered, saying that he not only cheated, but even cheated on several women at once.

As soon as she got home from school, she saw an extremely unsightly scene, her husband mixed up with a couple of sluts, and she didn't even have an eye to see that scene. The more Teacher Li spoke, the more sad she became, and she choked up and said that if it hadn't happened to such a devastating tragedy, she wouldn't have done it.

And the reason why she was beaten alone was because her husband knew that he had done something wrong and did not resist. I listened and nodded silently, this statement is indeed the closest to reality. Mr. Li is a natural victim, but it is understandable that he did that kind of thing because of a momentary emotional breakdown.

How many women can stay calm after seeing their husbands fooling around with several women? However, for some reason, I watched Mr. Li choke and sobbed under Lin's comfort, and I had a strange emotion.

Because her husband cheated, she was able to beat her husband with a thin stick that looked like a special custom? And the appearance of the husband is also a little strange.

If it was really Mr. Li's husband who did that kind of indiscriminate thing, shouldn't he cry and beg Mr. Li for mercy? Why are you so submissive? And the tears I saw before I finally left...... And what is it?

In my opinion, there are some doubts in the matter, but Mr. Li himself said that this is the case, and I can't interfere too much in other people's affairs, so I didn't continue to ask. After Teacher Li's mood stabilized, Lin and I also came up with this main problem that came back to her.

"Teacher Li, there is something I need your help with - is there a child named Xiaozhi in your class?"

I have been observing Ms. Li's expression, and she looked a little surprised when she heard my question, but she did not look panicked. Curiously asked me how I knew about Ash's child, and I said that I also learned about it by accident, and I didn't explain much about the old woman.

And Mr. Li didn't seem to want to hide the appearance of Lin and me, and generously told us that Ash was a student in Class A in the third year, but he was torn up by the murderer because of a kidnapping case three years ago, and unfortunately left the world.

But Mr. Li said that the police really can't be blamed for this, they were ready to rescue at that time, but the murderer temporarily changed his mind and didn't want money, and after he killed Xiaozhi, he also killed himself. This is how the case ended.

Listening to Mr. Li's narration, I think it is natural, the only thing that can feel suspicious seems to be the only place where the murderer suddenly changed his mind. But it's not entirely impossible, and who knows what crazy stuff is going on in the murderer's head?

And according to his suicide action, it means that he may have some mental problems, and he may be suffering from depression. But if you believe Mr. Li's statement and reason, Ash will become an innocent victim.

At the same time, the information we learned from the old woman before will also be useless. In this way, the things that the old woman doubted and worried about became a reality.

The police try to hide part of the truth, and if no one debunks the truth, the truth of the part of the truth is concealed, and it will always be remembered in people's minds as the end result, and then ...... Forget.

Neither Lin nor I continued to ask Ash's questions, and we pretended to know everything else and talked to her about other questions. Because if you think about it, if Mr. Li is trying to hide something, then we can't ask it at all.

If what she says is not the truth, it means that her lies have been made up so skillfully and perfectly, that there are no flaws at all. How much effort it takes to do this will only be known to those who have done it.
