"Ah, sister-in-law, it's me back." Zhao Xiulan quickly answered.

Yuan Tezhu looked at the person, it was a middle-aged woman carrying a basket on her back, there was a purple vegetable in the basket, the woman looked older than Zhao Xiulan, but she was wearing flowers.

The person who was called sister-in-law looked at the few people behind Zhao Xiulan, especially Wang Zhiping who was wearing a police uniform, her expression changed instantly, as if she saw some monster, she couldn't avoid it, and she didn't even have time to reply,

Ah An looked over in surprise, pretended to look at Wang Zhiping casually, frowned and said, "Captain Wang looks so scary?" ”

Wang Zhiping took a cigarette, ignored A'an, and asked Zhao Xiulan in front of him: "What's going on?" ”

"So many strange pores have come here," Yuan Tezhu looked at the cornfields, "I'm afraid I'll think too much." ”

It's hot weather now, the weather is capricious, even if there is heavy rain, it's stuffy, and the sweat will flow down as soon as you move, not to mention that now that the sun is hanging high, after standing in the ground for a while, Pang Yu's white shirt is already soaked.

Wang Zhiping, who was wearing a police uniform, was even more uncomfortable, he was already holding back his temper, Xiaolin was wearing long-sleeved trousers, and he was afraid of the sun while showing heat, and when he saw Wang Zhiping's coat, he rolled his eyes and couldn't help complaining: "Captain, you took off your coat, isn't it hot?" ”

Wang Zhiping put his hand on the zipper of his coat, and he didn't move anymore: "Don't take it off, I'm also a captain, and I'm just as angry as you," he coughed lightly: "What kind of system." ”

Xiao Lin looked at him speechlessly, and for a while, he walked directly around him and walked to Zhao Xiulan.

"Aunt Zhao, is it really like what Yuan Tezhu said, because we are outsiders, so that aunt is scared like that?" Xiao Lin recalled the woman's panicked look and smacked his tongue secretly.

Zhao Xiulan's sweat was less than all of them, and she actually smiled when she heard Xiao Lin's words, but the smile was indescribably bleak, and it actually brought a little despair:

"He's right, here, if something happens to someone's family, it's over, and the people in the village will feel that your family is unfortunate and will bring the misfortune to the village." Zhao Xiulan's tone was flat.

Xiao Lin's face turned red because of anger: "How can this be?!" ”

"Alas..."Pang Yu walked over and sighed when he heard this: "This is also something that can't be helped, this kind of thinking has been ingrained here, and it is difficult to change." ”

Zhao Xiulan glanced at him, this is normal in her cognition, if something happens to someone's house, she will also be afraid, if it is a dead person's business, she can't wait for the doors and windows to be closed, far away from that house, it will be unlucky.

There are farmers passing by from time to time on the road, walking for nearly ten minutes, walking from the road to the trail, the width of the trail can only pass one person, the two sides are overgrown with weeds, the right is a deep ditch, Zhao Xiulan walked in the front to lead the way, and the rest of the people followed closely behind.

What puzzled a few people was that the road here was bumpy and muddy, but the house here was a good small bungalow, and even a two-story building, if such a small building was in City A, it would cost at least one million.

There is a house at the end, it is a two-story small building, a big red iron door, walk in, there is a peach tree in the courtyard, there are a few wooden chairs in the shade, a wooden table with a plate of melon seeds, Zhao Xiulan put the bag she carried all the way on the wooden table.

The table was wobbly and frightened to Xiao Lin.

"This is my home." Zhao Xiulan took out a few identical wooden chairs from the back room and put them in the courtyard: "You sit, I'll pour you hot water." ”

Wang Zhiping's eyes swept over the entire yard, and the leaves and dust fell on the washing machine in the yard, all of which were newly dropped, it seems that someone cleaned it carefully before, it should be Zhao Xiulan.

Because this place is too remote, there is no police station in this small village, and the police station in the town is still a little away from here, Wang Zhiping glanced at Yuan Tezhu, who was wiping his muddy suit pants with a black face, I am afraid that this special assistant will not want to walk the dirt road again if he goes out.

Ah An wiped the sweat from his forehead with his short sleeves: "Can I take a bath here?" ”

Zhao Xiulan hurriedly came out: "Yes, I'll boil water for you,"

"Hey, no, no, I'll just get some cold water to flush it." Ah An stopped Zhao Xiulan's movements, wanted to take off the wet short sleeves, put his hand on the corner of his clothes and paused, but he had to give up because of the presence of two ladies.

"Xiulan..."Out of the back room came a skinny old man, her hair was gray, and one eye was blank, as if she had lost her sight, she was staggering, her teeth were gone, her face was wrinkled, and her dry skin was loose on her face.

In her hand was a wooden cane, one foot was lame when she walked, and she looked at Zhao Xiulan with a cloudy gaze, "Where is Huazi?" ”

Zhao Xiulan, who pursed her mouth and was silent, looked at Wang Zhiping who was sitting, and the old man seemed to have just noticed these people as he looked over, "This... What's out of... What's wrong? ”

She spoke very slowly, as if every word had been passed through her old body before she could spit it out.

"Mom, Chen Hua, he..." Zhao Xiulan said and tears welled up, she was frightened by others just now, and she didn't cry when she was swept away by malicious eyes.

Now that she came to her relatives, a single question caused the defense tower she had worked so hard to build collapsed.

A lacquered wood urn was taken out of the black backpack, reflecting the moment in the old man's eyes, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, directly hitting the old man's body: "This is...!" ”

This made her lose her ability to speak for a while, and hot tears slid down her face, one after another.

After walking a few steps, the old man's body shook and fell to the ground: "I... Oh yes! What's going on?! ”

Zhao Xiulan hurriedly helped the old man up, kept sobbing, several people who witnessed this scene felt uncomfortable, and the emotional Xiao Lin secretly turned his face away and wiped his tears.

lived for a lifetime, and at the end of the day, her son was gone, the white-haired person sent the black-haired person, Chen's mother cried so darkly that she almost fainted, Zhao Xiulan gave her medicine, and the situation was slightly better.

"This is an IOU that Qu Chang owes our family," Zhao Xiulan took out the paper from an iron box, and Pang Yu casually glanced at the iron box, which contained the same paper and a stack.

Wang Zhiping took it, and it was written that Qu Chang borrowed 3,000 yuan from Chen Hua today, which was an IOU.

At the bottom are two red fingerprints, signed by Qu Chang Chen Hua, dated three years ago.

"This was three years ago, and it hasn't been paid back yet?" Ah An looked over and snapped his fingers: "Do you need to collect the account, I am a professional, and I can not charge you for the sake of my boss." ”

It's really a big forest and there are all kinds of birds, Wang Zhiping looked at Ah An and couldn't help but think of this sentence, Pang Yu over there thought for a moment, "Ah An, then can you find this Qu Chang?" ”

Ah An smiled disdainfully, "As long as you have photos, my brothers are all over the world." ”

Wang Zhiping and Pang Yu glanced at each other, and calculated A'an, after all, one more person has more strength, Qu Chang is really difficult to catch when he goes to other provinces, and it will take several days to contact the police station in other provinces just after the documents come down.

If Ah An could catch it and send it to the police station for interrogation, wouldn't it be all of this without bothering.

Pang Yu's eyes lit up: "Then I gave you the photo at night?" ”

Ah An waved his hand casually, "No problem." ”

Yuan Tezhu, who had been paying attention to this, didn't say anything after hearing it, but typed a line into his mobile phone and sent it to Qi Xiuyuan: Suspect Quchang of Chenzhuang Village.

After putting the phone down, after a while, Yuan Tezhu raised the phone again and sent a message: A'an has a bad brain.

Zhao Xiulan was going to make dinner, Xiao Lin blinked his eyes and wanted to follow, and Pang Yu, Wang Zhiping, Yuan Tezhu A'an and Chen Hua's mother were left in the entire back room.

She was also in a state of great grief from which she could not extricate herself.

Wang Zhiping fiddled with his mobile phone for a while, and the fourth child sent a message saying that everyone at the construction site had completed the investigation, and a few people who had quarreled with Chen Hua had already been reviewed, and there was no problem.

Wang Zhiping made a phone call and asked in detail, and then asked the fourth: "How is Wang Yufei," and the fourth quickly replied: "It's still like that, and a meal will not be left behind." ”

Wang Zhiping: "...... I didn't ask you about the amount of food. ”

Su Lao's voice sounded: "He's okay, don't worry here, how are you doing over there?" ”

Unlike Chen's mother's old and weak voice, Su Lao's voice was calm and powerful, and he couldn't tell that he was a sixty-year-old man at all.

"We just arrived, last night in the Pingshan service area, Zhao Xiulan saw the villager Qu Chang who had a conflict with Chen Hua, you can check." Wang Zhiping extinguished the cigarette in his hand and was about to continue speaking.

"Hey, this kid is so cute!" Xiao Lin's exclamation attracted everyone's attention, only to see that she was holding a photo frame in her hand, the corners of the photo were yellowed, it looked old, but it was well preserved in the photo frame.

Because it was too far away, Wang Zhiping couldn't see it clearly, and was going to stand up and take a look, but someone stepped forward before him and snatched the photo frame, Zhao Xiulan took the photo frame in her hand, and her expression was rare with anger: "Why do you move other people's things casually?!" ”

Yuan Tezhu lifted his eyelids and swept his gaze to the picture frame.

After Zhao Xiulan finished speaking, she didn't give anyone a chance to see it, and directly took the photo frame to the bedroom and put it away.

Pang Yu felt that something was wrong, Wang Zhiping shook his head lightly at him, now is the wrong time.

Xiao Lin came back and sat on the chair with a blank face, where she didn't dare to move anymore.

In the evening, fortunately, Zhao Xiulan had more rooms here, Wang Zhiping and Pang Yu had one, Yuan Tezhu and A'an had one, and Xiaolin lived by himself.

Although the villagers here are pedantic and old-fashioned, it is a matter of the case, and there is no extra effort to manage the rumors.

In the dead of night, the moonlight was faintly sprinkled in this small village, and a figure flickered in front of the red iron gate, and he sneakily walked to the corner of the wall, raised his hands high, climbed to the wall, and turned over.

There are no dogs in this yard, and the leaves and dust from the washing machine have long been swept away.

As if he was very familiar with this place, he walked straight to the back room, and the moment he pushed the door open, a knife suddenly stretched out, and it was bright in the night.

"Who are you?"
