Chapter 532: Kang Ju's True Identity
Chapter 532 Separate Investigation Act I: The Criminal Police Who Infiltrated the Hotel
In 2011, the gate of the prefabricated house
Yun Yeyao instructed everyone to bypass the corpse, set up the table and chairs to the noon eating place, and then let the remaining workers and aunts sit on both sides of the table like a square table meeting, and he sat in the first position on the west side, so that everyone's eyes moved with him.
The two aunts who went back to the room took out all the snacks, and there were not too many varieties, basically cookies and coarse grain biscuits, mixed with a few packets of potato chips.
No one has an appetite for food at the moment, so no one pays attention to these snacks either. Aunt Tao had already entered the inn, and Kang Hong asked with some concern: "If you let her go to the hotel alone, those corpses will frighten her." ”
"Don't worry, the corpse in the kitchen has already been disposed of by us, and she won't look at the things in the room, Aunt Tao is very smart and will be fine." Yun Yeyao said it lightly, as if he didn't care about the life or death of these people, and Kang Hong's face couldn't help but be even more gloomy.
But he didn't open his mouth to refute, just waited for Yun Yeyao to continue.
Yun Yeyao turned to Lao Nuo and said, "Uncle Li, please continue to tell the story of the past." ”
Lao Nuo hadn't recovered from the fright just now, he shook his head indifferently, his expression was in a trance, looking at the blood in the palms of his hands, as if he hadn't heard what Yun Yeyao said.
Yun Yeyao shouted again: "Uncle Li." ”
"I ...... Will anyone still die? Lao Nuo suddenly raised his head and asked Yun Yeyao, his eyes full of anticipation.
Yun Yeyao said affirmatively: "As long as you cooperate with our investigation, you can stop the murderer from attacking everyone again." ”
These words echoed in Lao Nuo's ears as the wind and waves on the lake became bigger and bigger, and his eyes gradually moved to the direction where he could see the lake, and began to recall the past......

Artificial island 15 years ago
Kang Ju, who came out of the kitchen, hugged Yueyue's shoulders and sent her back to her room. Although the little girl offered to find some work in the store, Kang Ju thought that the little girl's face was not good, and it was better to go back and rest.
This scene happened to be seen by Xiao Chen, who came back from outside the hotel, although he only saw the back, but I don't know why, Xiao Chen did not react violently like during the day, but silently turned around and entered the counter on the west side, opened the drawer, as if rummaging for something.
He may have deliberately diverted his attention, because the drawers were a mess, with paper, pens, and other small things in a mess. He searched for a long time, but he didn't find anything he needed.
After Kang Ju sent Yueyue back to the room, he didn't say hello to him when he came out, and walked directly to the counter, Kang Ju lay on the counter with both hands, one leg that couldn't bend relaxed his strength slightly, pressed the weight of his body on the other leg, and said to the young man at the counter: "Look at me, okay?" ”
This is obviously a question, but Kang Ju said it like a declarative sentence, her words sounded as if the mustard between the two people had not been lifted, and she couldn't hear whether she was angry with Xiao Chen, or Xiao Chen was angry with her.
Xiao Chen continued to rummage through the drawer with both hands, as if he didn't hear Kang Ju speak at all, or he thought Kang Ju was talking to someone else, and after a while, he finally stopped moving, but still didn't look up. Kang Ju's face was very close to him at the moment, almost touching his face, and his breath spitted between Xiao Chen's forehead and eyebrows, causing the 15-year-old boy to shrink back.
Finally, Xiao Chen spoke: "I don't know how to face you." Such a dull sentence must be very sad to hear in the ears of a couple who love each other deeply.
Kang Ju's performance was indeed the same, her eyes seemed to have tears in her eyes, and she said to Xiao Chen, "You really don't want to look at me?" Even at a glance, we still have a long time to live together in the future! ”
"Can we really live together?" Xiao Chen suddenly asked a discouraging word, Kang Ju didn't do anything on the surface, but it could be seen that the two hands she hid under her armpits were trembling slightly, Xiao Chen's words really hit her.
Looking at the boy who kept saying that he loved him, Kang Ju didn't believe that just half a day, a quarrel, could make him say such a thing and make him question their feelings.
If Yueyue is a man, or if Xiaodou and Kang Ju interact, then Xiao Chen's appearance is understandable, but now, don't talk about Kang Ju, the situation is a little unpredictable even for us.
Kang Ju said: "Now I only ask you to look at me, if you feel that something is wrong, or you are unhappy, then I will disappear in front of you immediately, how about it?" ”
Having said that, Xiao Chen could only raise his head, he wanted to glance at it hurriedly, so he immediately lowered his head again, but he didn't expect that this glance made him attracted by Kang Ju's appearance.
In a trance, Xiao Chen seemed to see the scene when he was a child, the two of them were sitting at a table, Kang Ju was peeling oranges for him, the petals of orange-red flesh were placed in front of him, and the girl's smile made Xiao Chen feel that the other party was as sweet and delicious as the pulp.
The oranges brought by Kang Ju are always very sweet, so sweet that there is a feeling of eating honey, Xiao Chen likes the way she peels oranges for herself, so even if the tooth decay hurts, she won't say no, and even once, the tooth decay hurt so much that his face was swollen, Xiao Chen still wanted Kang Ju to peel oranges for himself, but he was severely reprimanded by Kang Hong, and Kang Ju, who didn't know it, also suffered.
Thinking back to that beautiful face, the days when they were together before, Xiao Chen unconsciously began to carefully examine the face in front of him, yes, the same beautiful, the same sweet, it hasn't changed at all, even the hands that peel oranges, the fingers are just as slender.
He blurted out, "How could you?" Your skin ......"
"How could it be like this, right? Why is the skin so white? Kang Ju asked him a question, then tried to get a little closer, and said to him, "Because you don't believe me, I'm going to prove it to you!" It also proves that I do have a relationship here, right? ”
“…… Well, I believe your word and I will stay with you until the day my life ends. A promise for a lifetime, but Kang Ju, who should be happy, still maintains the appearance just now, maybe her heart is so happy that she starts to cry, but on the surface, she should still look like an adult, isn't it?
Xiao Chen's direct performance cleared up the misunderstanding between the two people, he stepped out of the counter in a few steps, grabbed Kang Ju's hand lying on the countertop, hugged her into his arms, and shouted: "Xiao Ju." ”
These two simple words poured all of Xiao Chen's hearts into it, and also made Kang Ju feel sad, the young man seemed to be comforting himself, and seemed to be forcing himself to accept something.
When the two of them separated, Kang Ju's face was already slightly flushed, and Xiao Chen said to her, "Go to your own room, clean up well, you should also learn how to draw those umbrellas." I didn't forget to add: "Just count the last room in the board house from east to west." ”
"I know, I want to confirm again, do you really want to be with me for the rest of your life?" Kang Ju seemed to be uneasy and asked Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen nodded at her, revealing a firm gaze, before she walked towards the door of the hotel, Xiao Chen kept looking at her back in a daze, until she completely disappeared, and then withdrew her gaze.
At this moment, Yueyue, who was upstairs, was lying behind the crack in the door of the room and watching all this, Yueyue seemed to understand something? But it seems that he doesn't know anything! The little girl just stared at the two men intently, as if she were snooping into their secrets.
At this time, Xiao Chen inadvertently glanced upstairs, Yue Yue didn't know if he saw the crack in the door he opened, his heart seemed to be knocked by someone, and he skipped a beat, fortunately Xiao Chen didn't walk upstairs, and quickly retracted his gaze and walked to the kitchen aisle. He didn't know when he had an extra bundle of hemp rope in his hand, the hemp rope was not very thick, but it looked strong enough that it should be brand new.
Yue Yue was not sure if Xiao Chen had seen herself, and when he walked into the kitchen aisle, the little girl carefully closed the door, and a simple twist of the lock scared Yue Yue out of a cold sweat.
Now, the inn seems to be quiet, but where has Shodou gone? After a while, Yue Yue didn't see his figure at all, maybe he was still helping to clean up in the kitchen!
If Xiaodou is in the kitchen, then, counting Xiao Chen who just entered, and Yannuo Gu who is preparing dinner, there are a total of three people in the kitchen, and we are not sure if all three of them are there, because our eyes did not follow Xiao Chen into the kitchen, but to continue back to the present 2011.
——
Xie Yunmeng had already scooped up what he saw and approached the inn, but he made a mistake, that is, he didn't look in the right direction, and when he climbed along the wall to the edge of the window, he found that he was actually in the position of the guest room, and every window in the guest room was locked by them from the inside.
There was no other way, Xie Yunmeng had to return from the original way, continue to judge the direction and move forward, swimming in the big lake, but it is much more tiring than swimming in the swimming pool, even if the physique of Mr. Criminal Police is like this, he is starting to breathe a little, after all, bypassing most of the artificial islands is not a little distance.
Came to the direction that he thought was correct, and after looking at it, Xie Yunmeng began to climb up, it should be the back door of the kitchen, now only the back door of the kitchen may let him in, otherwise, he has to go directly around the front of the hotel and use the key to open the main door to enter, but in doing so, he can be seen immediately on the side of the board room.
'Try it and see if you can get in.' Xie Yunmeng thought, he used his hands to climb up along the protrusion on the edge of the wall, the only advantage of this artificial island is that there are protruding places to step on all sides, which can be regarded as a little help to Xie Yunmeng.
The detective quickly climbed onto the platform outside the small door, grabbed the edge of the railing with both hands, and then flipped back, like a gymnast, and stood firmly inside the platform with a backflip. This action seems very simple, but it is a great test of the strength of the hands, because when the body turns up, all the weight, as well as gravity, are all pressed on the two arms, and the person who is a little unbearable will immediately let go and fall into the lake, and all the actions just now will be useless, and even hurt himself.
Xie Yunmeng shook his sore hands, rubbed his hands on the muscles of his shoulders a few times, loosened his bones, and then walked towards the back door, his fingers had not touched the doorknob of the back door of the kitchen, and he saw that there was no lock on the door, and Mr. Criminal Police suddenly thought of a question.
The door here was ignored by them just now, for such a long time, if there is a fish that has slipped through the net on the side of the board room, will this fish that has slipped through the net have already dealt with the murder scene? It's like Kang Ju just now!
Thinking of this, Xie Yunmeng opened the back door and walked in, the head on the ground was still there, looking at Xie Yunmeng at a strange angle, under such a humid and stuffy environment, the head had already begun to rot, the eyelids, lips, and ears were swollen, and the miserable white skin looked like a wax mold, and even the blood vessels like spider webs inside could be seen, as well as nerves.
Pus continued to flow from the rotten place, Xie Yunmeng carefully identified the location of the head, and nothing changed, so he walked into the kitchen. The detective is now wearing only socks and tapping his toes on the kitchen floor, trying not to leave too many traces at the murder scene.
This scene in the kitchen is also very weird, at nine o'clock in the morning, when Yun Ye saw it from afar, it was also such a scene, but the black ponytail hair was missing, and those ponytail hairs were neatly arranged in boxes, which were said to be used to weave the bow umbrella surface.
Xie Yunmeng approached the stacked boxes and reached out to dig between the horsetail hairs, he wanted to make sure if there was anything hidden here? After checking the boxes one by one, in the bottom box, Xie Yunmeng had a harvest, and what he took out was a pendant, the silver necklace on the pendant had been completely blackened, and below it was a cylindrical clock.
The time on the clock was so dusty that it was impossible to see clearly, and when he turned it over, Xie Yunmeng saw a line of small characters engraved underneath: January 15, 1997, customized by Mr. Kang. On the small clock, there is also a girl's face imprinted, because it is too small, so Xie Yunmeng can't recognize who it is? However, looking closely at the girl's eyebrows, the criminal police had a familiar feeling.
He slipped the little wall clock into his pocket, then checked the corner again, and there was no other clue, so he piled the box untouched, and then crouched down to examine a smashed head, a large piece of bone on the back of the deceased's head was shattered, and the plasma had completely pasted the hair on the scalp, the man's hair was very short, depending on the situation, it should be a man.
Xie Yunmeng turned his head over with his hand, and the front was even more unbearable to look at directly, looking carefully, there were still some male characteristics, for example, there was a beard hidden under the skin of the face, although the skin had rotted, but the beard could not rot together, and it was still attached to the flesh.
In addition to the spots caused after death, there are also some small brown spots on the skin of the deceased, just like old age spots, these spots are all in the place where the hair and cheeks are connected, if you don't look carefully, it is easy to ignore the past, Xie Yunmeng carefully remembered these characteristics one by one, and analyzed and judged them in his heart.
This may be an elderly man, fat and thin can no longer be distinguished by looking at the cheeks, and can only roughly guess from the part of the cheekbones that this person may not have been fat before his death.
Feeling that he could remember all the traits, Xie Yunmeng stood up, he is not a forensic doctor, and he can only do so much, for the knowledge of medicine and bacteriology, Xie Yunmeng has never learned, but after this incident, he felt that he should ask the forensic doctor in the police station for more advice, and when he encountered solving the case alone, he would not have to be so embarrassed.
Artificial island 15 years ago
Xiao Chen and Kang Ju have reconciled, Kang Ju walked in the direction of the board room, her steps were very slow, and she was thinking, not only because of the situation in the room, and Xiao Chen's attitude, but also other things, including Yueyue.
Kang Ju had a very good impression of this little girl, and it would be great if Yueyue could stay on the artificial island, but what reason did Kang Ju have to keep her?
As she thought, she squinted at the lake, her eyes temporarily obscuring her pearl-like pupils, and the fog blowing on the surface of the lake made her whole face blur.
Kang Ju felt a little itchy on her face, she was very careful to scratch the itchy place with her fingernails, but she didn't dare to scratch hard, as if she was afraid that something on her face would fall off, and after a few gentle scratches, she continued to walk forward.
It's not a matter of two steps to go through the entire artificial island, so Kang Ju has enough time to think, anyway, the matter between her and Xiao Chen has been resolved, and the others are not so serious, the headless corpse in the kitchen has been kept in the water tank, and it is not a way, but who killed him? Where did the head go? Kang Ju couldn't get an answer after thinking about it.
The body shape of the corpse is very similar to her father Kanghong, but the skin on the neck is not like it, the skin on Kanghong's neck is very wrinkled and very dark, the corpse is not like this, although it has been soaked to the point of swelling, but no matter how swollen it is, it is impossible not to see any traces, Kang Ju thinks like a detective, she doesn't give herself any clear positioning, just thinks down the train of thought, and can come up with as much as she can.
The moment he stepped into the door of the board room, Kang Ju took out the key from his pocket, and there was a small cylindrical thing on his shaking wrist, which fell out of the sleeve.
——
Year 2011
The wind and waves at night are still quite strong, Yun Yeyao is a little blown so that he can't open his eyes, he doesn't like the taste here, and he doesn't like the environment here, the first day he came to the artificial island was fine, but the next day he regretted it a little, if it wasn't for the murder, he might ask the people here to send them to the north shore today.
Lao Nuo said: "I just talked about Nuo Nuo, Nuo Nuo is a child who loves the fishing village very much, but his father Lao Nuo is different. ”
"What is the relationship between Lao Nuo and you in the past?" Yun Yeyao asked.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a neighbor in a village, but I have the same word in my name as him." Lao Nuo replied: "Lao Yan has always managed the fishing village with all his heart, no matter what happens to any family, as long as it is within his ability, he will help solve it, and the same is true of Nuo's father." ”
"The two of them are the two pillars of the fishing village, without them, the fishing village would not be so prosperous, so everyone trusts them very much, Lao Yan because his son went to the city, when he moved out of the village, everyone did not vote for the next village chief, but automatically regarded the remaining Nuo Nuo's father as the village chief in their hearts."
"A few days after Nuono's father took over the fishing village, the village was like a lucky star descending, a beautiful little girl was born, we called him Xiaoye, in the years after Xiaoye was born, the life of the villagers was better, and almost nothing happened, so everyone loved Xiaoye as a pearl in the palm of their hands."
"There is one more thing, that is, the relationship between Nuo Nuo and Xiao Ye, when Xiao Ye was born, Nuo Nuo was by her side, it was a premature birth, Xiao Ye's eyelids were still adhered together, and the village doctor didn't dare to help her open her eyelids no matter what, for fear of hurting the eyeballs inside, just Nuo Nuo was not afraid alone, no matter how his father stopped him, he couldn't stop him."
"Nuno, who was only about ten years old at the time, actually used a leaf to help Xiaoye cut his eyelids, and the baby was not hurt at all, so it can also be said that Xiaoye opened her eyes, and the first person she saw was not her mother, but Nuno."
"This also created that in the later days, Xiao Ye and Nuo Nuo's relationship is closer than anyone else, she is always like a shadow around Nuo Nuo, never abandoned, most of the time, we wander around the village, we can see the two of them, and then Nuo Nuo went to study in other places, Xiao Ye cried for several days."
"So is Nono back?" Yun Ye asked.
"Of course he's back, Nuo Nuo's child is not a piece of study material, he just wants to continue his father's way of life, but as a result, his father can't resist him, so he can only let him come back, Xiao Ye is very happy."
"But the good times didn't last long, Xiao Ye's mother was a widow, and Nuo Nuo's father has not continued since his wife's death, the village wanted to match the two of them, but Xiao Ye's mother agreed, Nuo Ye's father resolutely refused, this matter was messed up like this, everyone couldn't understand, why did Nuo Nuo's father refuse what a good family affair? What's more, both children are also willing. ”
"In any way, this is a good thing, and Xiaoye's mother doesn't understand why? So she was heartbroken, and it didn't take long for her to marry outside the village, as for which family she married? We didn't know about it before Nono's accident! No one in the village had mentioned it, and perhaps Nono's father knew, but he kept silent about it and never wanted to say more. ”
"Since Xiao Ye left, the fishing village has been deserted a lot, and Nuonuo's father has become more reticent than before, he just directs everyone to go out fishing every day, and then hides in the house to teach Nuono to read in person until Nuono is 15 years old."
When Lao Nuo said this, Yun Yeyao asked, "Why didn't you mention Xiao Ye's father?" ”
"Because Xiao Ye's mother is a widow!"
"When she gave birth to Xiaoye, was she a widow?"
"Yes." Lao Nuo understood what Yun Yeyao wanted to ask, and answered calmly.
"So who is Xiao Ye's father? Does this have anything to do with Lao Nuo's reluctance to marry her mother? ”
