Chapter 345: Old Lu
Hua Fei not only extinguished the fire, but she also rescued an important thing.
It was an old iron box, with Chang'e holding a jade rabbit on the lid, and the advertising slogan "Ronghua moon cakes".
When I opened the box, I saw that there was a ticket and a receipt inside, as well as an old brown paper book with the words "work log" neatly written on the cover of the book.
I picked up an old cardboard train ticket, the font of which was already illegible, but I could still make out the name of a ticket from Urumqi to Beijing on August 13, 2004.
Urumchi? It seems that this assassin is also related to Xinjiang?
The receipt inside was issued by a guest house in Kashgar, and the date was before the ticket to Urumqi. The receipt is written in a dragon and a phoenix, and it seems that it is still in Uyghur.
Hua Hu took out the small notebook, she reached out to open it, I leaned over to take a look, and found that there were many things sparsely written on it, but there were not many meanings that could be directly seen.
Because this old Lu Ji thing is all codename.
For example, on the first page, there are some strange words written in Chinese characters.
"In 1005, Wu reversed tears, and in 1008, Di Branch. In 1013, Xia also. In 1063, the ghost mountains looked at each other. ”
These words may seem familiar, but the real meaning is simply undecipherable!
From the perspective of chronology, 1005 was still in the period of Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, which happened to be the year when Song Liao reached the alliance of Yuanyuan, and in 1063, Song Zhenzong's son Song Renzong died in the spring of this year.
But these things have nothing to do with what "Wu anti-tears" or "ghost mountains look at each other"!
Lin Ying had no choice but to put the box away. At this time, the fire truck had already arrived, and people from the local police station also rushed over.
We didn't find any other useful clues, so we handed over the scene to them, went downstairs, and asked the hotel staff about Lao Lu's situation.
The little girl at the front desk roughly told us the ins and outs of this old Lu.
Lao Lu is a weirdo, he came to register during the New Year's Day holiday this year, said that he wanted to rent a room for a long time, and asked if it could be cheaper.
The little girl truthfully registered his identity information and recommended him a few rooms, and Lao Lu chose the cheapest one.
"The house is next to the water room, and it's very noisy."
"It's okay, behind my ears, I can't hear much."
Lao Lu stayed in that room. He doesn't seem to have a regular job, sometimes he sleeps during the day, goes out at night, and sometimes goes out during the day, but no matter what, he definitely comes back every day.
"Uncle Lu, what kind of big deal are you doing?" As the days went by, the little girl at the front desk became acquainted with him.
"I'm a hero." Lao Lu said with a smile.
"And the profession of hero?"
"Of course there is, from ancient times to the present, have you read Jin Yong's book? I almost lost my life before, so I survived with a copy of "Knight's Journey". ”
"But that's just, now there are courts, there are police, what's the use of being a hero."
"Hehe, of course it's useful, hoe the strong and help the weak, protect relatives and friends, walk the rivers and lakes, and live a happy life. You don't understand the beauty of heroes. Lao Lu continued to laugh.
"Uncle Lu has mental problems." They said this privately.
However, Lao Lu's backpack often has things with blades, and the staff in the hotel all know it.
"He's not going to kill, is he?"
So when they saw Lao Lu later, they all hid and guarded.
"Uncle Lu, if you take the subway or bus with a knife, you will be checked if you go through the security check, right?" There are also security guards who asked.
"I walk on two legs everywhere, and I'm not used to riding in a car." Lao Lu still smiled, "I have also taken the train before, it is very far, I have been sitting for two days and two nights, and my head is swollen, and I will never want to take the car again in the future - I came to Weiyang by myself." ”
"Come to Weiyang, but I remember that you are from Weiyang?"
Lao Lu smiled and didn't speak again.
"That's it, a very simple uncle, the rent is not expensive, he never owes debts, and he is happy every day. But since the summer, he has become reticent. The front desk said.
"Silent?"
"Well, I look worried every day, and I often go out at night."
Regarding the rest of Lao Lu, the people at the hotel couldn't offer much more. As for why Lao Lu wanted to assassinate me, the more I investigated, the more inexplicable I felt.
"Hero? Could it be that he is a killer? Hua Yu reminded.
"No, no." The little girl smiled, "He's just an ordinary person, once compared with the security guard Xiao Jian, and was hit a few times by Xiao Jian." Uncle Lu just lives a relatively naïve life. ”
Lin Ying nodded, she looked at me and Hua Huan, and asked: "I see that his household registration is from Zhongjie County, and that place is more than fifty kilometers away from the city, if you two are fine, you might as well accompany me for a trip." ”
Hua Yan was a little disdainful, she waved her hand at Lin Ying and said, "You go first, and we will arrive later." ”
I knew that she must have thought the car was too slow and wanted to "fly over" herself. But today, it was already very swaggering to fight the fire, and then there was a "tortoise and rabbit race" with Lin Ying, so she had to be anxious to question us.
It's easy to talk about it, and persuade Hua Fei to get into the car. She still looked disgusted.
"Swallow it slowly."
In fact, Lin Ying was not slow at all, and after twenty-five minutes, we had already arrived at Zhongjie County, and Beiting Village was very close to the county seat.
Lin Ying found the village party secretary, but as soon as she heard the name Lu Xia, the village party secretary smiled.
"We don't have this man here."
"No, you see, there are still three groups of Beiting Village written here." Lin Ying said with the photo taken by her mobile phone.
"Anyway, there is no such person, there is not even a surname Lu in this village."
"And this identity?"
"It's a mistake, or it's a fake identity, it's not easy to get a fake certificate, and the streets are full of advertisements." The village party secretary said with a laugh.
"Whether it's fake or not, your police system won't know if you check your ID number." I reminded Lin Ying.
She glared at me fiercely: "You forgot, we don't have any permissions in the system!" ”
"So, is this a blatant official fraud?" I asked.
"It's certainly not that simple. However, even if I don't have permission, there will definitely be someone who has it, and I've asked an acquaintance from the security agency to check it out......"
We left Beiting Village, went to the town government, and then went to the local police station, and the information we got was basically the same - there was no such person as Lu Xia in Zhongjie County.
Lin Ying was a little depressed, but Hua Ying was also quite depressed.
"This guy rushed to the street in broad daylight to assassinate my family, but you can't even find the way people came from!"
"I'm looking for—Yan Zhu, haven't you really offended anyone lately?" Lin Ying asked me again.
I shook my head vigorously, but quickly remembered something.
"Offended...... Surely offended...... And a whole bunch of people......" I said.
