Before leaving, Xu You found Cao Guisheng and told him two sentences, "Gao Ge wants to investigate Uncle Baochang." Tell him that I will soon find out the truth about the educated youth case. Xu You's meaning is very clear, stay in Simao County, don't go anywhere.

"Don't worry about going to your business, I and your Uncle Baochang are waiting for you to come back." Cao Guisheng's meaning is also very clear, he and Liu Baochang will not run, they are waiting for the relief of the truth and the verdict of the law.

Whoever does what they do will be responsible, and they will admit what they have committed.

The weather is already slightly cold.

The earth, which had been hot for a season, finally lowered its head when the north and northwest winds came. Hot to cold bow down. But it has not completely cooled down, Pingyang County, in the north of the south, has four distinct seasons, and between summer and winter, there is still a dull and depressed autumn. Outside the car window, the whole maple forest flashed continuously, and the green duck paw leaves, which had been beaten for half a year, gradually revealed the colors they should have—yellow and red.

"Xu You, look, it's beautiful." Lu Qingqing's slender and soft index finger pointed to the maple forest outside the car window.

"After a while, when the yellow turns red, it will look even better." Xu You said.

"Does Simao have it? Will you take me? Lu Qingqing's beautiful big eyes looked at Xu You.

"Yes." Xu Yu replied firmly.

This is enough, as for whether he will really go, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that Xu Yu agreed. A woman in love is easily satisfied, and those who blindly pursue and never feel satisfied are definitely not because of love.

Juyuan Village, Juyuan Town, Pingyang County, is distributed in strips on both sides of the river near the foot of the mountain, and there is fertile land between the houses and the river. The late rice is about to ripen, the ears hang down from the middle of the stalks and slender leaves, and the bottom few to a dozen grains begin to turn yellow.

The harvest season is fast approaching.

People's hard work will always usher in a harvest, more and less, good and bad are to draw an end to the results of labor. Including Xu You and Lu Qingqing, they have been busy for a year, and it is time for harvesting.

According to Liu Debao's account, after questioning the farmers working in the fields, Xu You and Lu Qingqing gradually approached Wu Changan's uncle's house.

The road was broken on the hillside, and the road in the village was small, and people, cattle, and bicycles were unimpeded, but the four-wheeled jeep was not good, so Xu You parked the car on the side of the road uphill.

The old man's body is still quite strong, "I can eat a big bowl for one meal." The son sat next to him and gestured a bowl to show the guests from afar, with a simple and honest smile on his face. Wu Changan's uncle couldn't understand Mandarin, let alone speak, and his son became a translator.

Xu You and Lu Qingqing revealed their identities and intentions to each other, and they waited for the old uncle's reply.

The old uncle murmured.

"My dad said that the thing was found, and the police officer who came last time told him to take good care of it after he found it, and he didn't dare to put it casually this time." The son repeated the meaning of the old man in Mandarin, which was not very fluent.

I didn't dare to have too much hope for this trip, Uncle Wu Changan was old, and most of the things he forgot couldn't be recovered, but he didn't expect that the sky would follow people's wishes.

"I'll fetch it for you." The old uncle's son entered the house, and soon came out again, and he had an extra long object in his hand that was tightly wrapped in nylon cloth.

Presumably that is the letter sent by Wu Changan to his uncle.

The book was wrapped in three layers of cloth, and it seems that my uncle cherished them very much, and because he cherished them, he collected them so that the age was so old that he could not find them for a while, and if he did not cherish them, he would have burned them as firewood long ago. This is the reincarnation of heaven, the world is destined, everyone has the luck and misfortune of fate that everyone should bear, otherwise, there would be no book for us, isn't it!

The letter was written by Wu Changan to his uncle intermittently for six years from 1970 to 1976, and it contained all the ups and downs of the educated youth. After twenty years of erosion, the letter paper has settled into a withered yellow and slightly black color.

Xu You and Lu Qingqing took half of it and quickly browsed under the bitter chestnut tree in the courtyard, looking for two main terms: murder and rape.

It was a letter dated June 26, 1976, and in addition to the letter, there was half a blank sheet of paper full of words.

The letter detailed the process of the rape of Shi Jing by Wu Chang'an, Wei Chi Revolution, Zheng Qian, and Lu Anzhi, and killed Yuan Liuyang, who came to them for explanation.

Xu You didn't dare to read the full contents of the letter, he bit his teeth into his lips, his nails into the flesh, he felt that his fiery blood was pounding his heart at a speed that his body could not bear.

Brute, do such things that are not as good as pigs and dogs, and dare to write it down as a souvenir? If you face the four of them at this time, we guarantee that Xu You will tear off their flesh, muscles, and bones, bite and chew them, and then swallow them in his stomach.

"What's wrong with you, Xu You?" Lu Qingqing found Xu You's painful expression, thinking that there was something wrong with his body, and asked with concern.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, you keep watching."

The letter was signed like this:

"Uncle, my heart is extremely painful and frightened, even twisted. I struggled desperately, and I felt that my life and soul had become extremely dirty. I want to die, but I can't bear you, you raised me, and I haven't had time to repay you. I want to die, but I can't bear her, I have my beloved girl, her name is Li Xuelan, she is beautiful and kind. Damn it, I did such a dirty thing, she didn't know anything, and she followed me with all her heart.

Uncle, they forced me, they said they would kill me if I didn't do it, I was afraid, I'm sorry for you. In order to connect the fates of the four people, we wrote down the crimes, signed our names, and pressed our handprints. The letter was kept by Zheng Qian, his heart was too dark, I couldn't trust him, so I stole it out. However, in such a panic that the letter fell into the corner of the table, I only stole half of it, and the other half was still in his hands.

Uncle, take good care of it, don't say anything, this half letter will save my life in the future. If one day I can't take it anymore, I'll take it and turn myself in. ”

He is honest and brave, selfless and fearless, the fire team he led has saved countless lives from the fire, and he has given meticulous care and consideration to his mother Zhu Yu and his daughter. In Lu Qingqing's heart, he is a hero, and even looking for a life partner, Lu Qingqing feels that it should be defined according to his father's standards.

However, all of a sudden, as if the sky was falling, the hero she admired in her heart turned out to be a rapist and a murderer.

Unacceptable. Xu You had already relayed Lei Yingtian's confession to Lu Qingqing before, but it was from one person, and the credibility was not very high after all. Now, there is another thing to corroborate, and it seems that there is no doubt that his father Lu Anzhi is the murderer of the educated youth case.

Lu Qingqing's heart was completely broken.

She folded the letter and the accusation back into the envelope and threw it to Xu You, dragging out of the courtyard with heavy steps, her body shaking.

"We took this, and you can keep the rest." Xu Yu pretended to be a letter and chased it out.

At this point, the truth of the matter is already very clear, but in order to confirm the charges of Wu Changan and others, more evidence needs to be found. The top priority is to interrogate Zheng Gan and get the half of the charge in his hand at the same time.

Zheng Qian looked very haggard and lost a lot of weight, his former huge fat head showed his cheekbones, and his eyes lost their sharp light. That light was an accessory brought to him by power, and now that he was reduced to a prisoner, he was no different from ordinary people. No, he is no longer an ordinary person, but a criminal.

Zheng Qianyuan is not as calm as Cao Guisheng.

Cao Guisheng is interested in revenge, which is the goal of his life, and it can also be said that he is ready to be discovered by the police and accept legal punishment at any time, and he is not afraid of death. Zheng Qian felt that he hadn't lived enough, he had the power to influence the life and death of others, and he lived a life of fine clothes and food, so he only thought about living a long life.

The more you pursue something, the more you can't get it, the most painful and tormenting, and Zheng Qian is in this state. If you can afford it, you may not be able to put it down, but if you put it down, you will be liberated; If you can't let go, you won't recover.

"Vice Mayor Zheng." Xu You and Lu Qingqing sat down, and Zheng Qian was opposite.

Zheng Qian held his head high, and the afterglow of his eyes glanced over, "You're mocking me." ”

"Otherwise, continue to hold you in the palm of your hand?" Xu You had a heart-wrenching hatred for Zheng Gan, and when he saw that Qingqing had prepared a pen and paper, he cut straight to the point, "On June 21, 1976, you, Wu Chang'an, Wei Chi Revolution and ...... Lu Anzhi," Xu You peeked at Lu Qingqing, worried that she would still not be able to accept the father in other people's mouths for a while. Lu Qingqing understood what he meant, and handed him a grateful and firm look. So Xu You continued, "I raped Shi Jing, who was also an educated youth at the time, do you admit it?" ”

Extremely? How is this possible, my God, how do they know. It's like walking in a cold night, the lamp in your hand goes out because it has burned out of oil, and the darkness around you suddenly falls into an ice hole. Black, cold, hopeless, fearful. Zheng Qian's heart was like a cat scratching.

Pretend to be calm, though.

Zheng Qian knew in his heart that if his execution could be stopped halfway, it must be his son Zheng Nansi who did what he explained. In this world, only Lu Weiyuan can save him. Therefore, he will not admit all the accusations of the police. "Shi Jing's case has long been decided, and the rapist Lei Yingtian has been punished."

"Okay, you don't admit it now. The second question is that on June 22, 1976, after Yuan Liuyang knew that you had insulted Shi Jing, he came to you to ask for an explanation, and you not only did not admit your guilt, but also united to kill him, and disguised it as Yuan Liuyang's suicide. This matter, you admit it or not. ”

Zheng Qian didn't feel so surprised anymore, since the police knew the truth of Shi Jing's case, they would definitely know the truth of Yuan Liuyang's case. What he doesn't understand now is how the police know the truth. Except for him, the only person who knows the truth is Lu Weiyuan, and everyone else is dead. Could it be that Lu Weiyuan announced the truth? Of course it can't be, it was everything he personally settled back then, bending the law for personal gain, shielding criminals, and planting blame, this crime is not small.

Zheng Qian didn't understand it, and he didn't admit it.

Xu You is very patient, he knows that people like Zheng Qian, who are cunning and cunning, and the city government is deep, and if he doesn't come up with enough strong evidence, the other party will not show up easily. "Yes, there is no basis for words, I have to show you something convincing." Xu You opened the file bag and took out Lei Yingtian's confession, "This is Lei Yingtian's confession, he recruited all the stories about how you bought the police to handle the case and how to blame him, and agreed to testify in court." How about it, Vice Mayor Zheng, do you still want to hold it? ”

Oh, it turned out that there was a problem with Lei Yingtian's ring. But he has been in prison for 20 years, his sentence is about to expire, and he is about to be released from prison. Zheng Qian looked at Xu You and thought: This person is not simple, you have to deal with it carefully. It is not easy to find out Lei Yingtian and let him recruit what happened back then. Zheng Qian thought so in his heart, but he said, "One-sided words, empty words are not credible, he said that we framed him, and I also said that he framed us." ”

Yes, Zheng Gan's statement is not unreasonable.
