"It's hard to say." Tang Hongye didn't speculate too much about this assumption, he looked at his watch, "Let's go, while the time is okay, let's go and inquire around again, and see who has seen Ding Zhengqing drive his girlfriend back, and see if he can get something more valuable." ”

The three of them set off from the farmhouse again, this time they didn't toss Village Chief Shen and his son again, after all, they also wandered around the village for a few days, and after Village Chief Shen and his son took them around for such a big circle, the villagers also remembered their faces nine times out of ten, so they didn't have to worry about whether to eat or not, after all, they had almost come into contact with the core of the relevant personnel now.

The purpose of their visit this time is very clear, and it is very simple, that is, they want to get some answers from the mouths of the villagers, to see if they have seen Ding Zhengqing bring the girl back, what the girl brought back looks like, and whether the behavior of the two people is very intimate.

After walking around, I really gained a lot, not only the two girls were recognized by the villagers, but even two or three other girls who described other appearances, the common point is that when they saw Ding Zhengqing and these girls appear in the village respectively, the behavior is more than familiar, the intimacy is insufficient, it is difficult for people to define, some people think that it is a couple relationship, otherwise it will not be so close, and some people say what age is it now, Just two people talking and laughing side by side doesn't explain the problem at all, ordinary friends can also look like this, none of those girls look like daughters of particularly rich families, and they don't look good at dressing, so it can't be Ding Zhengqing's fiancée.

But what is certain is that Ding Zhengqing did not deliberately avoid anyone every time he brought the girl back, so openly or driving, or walking, taking different girls to see here, playing there, talking and laughing very high-profile, once he turned on the stereo in the car very loudly, opened the window and galloped all the way, scaring several villagers on the side of the road.

No matter who these girls are Ding Zhengqing's fiancée, or none of them, the villagers did not make much fuss about Ding Zhengqing's behavior, according to one of them, Ding Zhengqing is the son of a rich family after all, the rich second generation, and it doesn't seem incomprehensible at all.

In addition to shaking his head helplessly at this view, the cuckoo didn't know how else to react.

After walking around, the sky has been completely dark, the three of them returned to the farmhouse, the shopkeeper left them some food, and the abundance is absolutely not touched, and can only be said to be the craft that can be entered, fortunately, the three people are not particularly picky people, just take a bite, the stomach is not hungry, after eating, they returned to the room, and now the situation at hand was summarized and sorted out, they all felt that there was a faint direction, just some evidence that can play a key role.

"Our current disadvantage lies in the environment where the crime was found, it is impossible to find key evidence through surveillance video as usual, the scene is also relatively chaotic, and all kinds of trivial evidence are not strong, the advantage is that the accident is in such a village, there are relatively few outsiders who usually come and go, even if they are not residents of this village, they will at least have a general impression, know which neighboring village and town are nearby, we have investigated for so long, and no one has proposed that there are any people in the village before and after the crime, Therefore, the possibility of outsiders committing crimes here can be basically ruled out, so that the scope can be narrowed down a lot. Tang Hongye faced the information that was gathered together, thought about it, and said to them, "Basically, there are only a few people who are more suspicious, and we have almost all met one by one at least once, and then we will meet again and again, and there is no point in asking and asking, what do you think we should do next?" ”

"Let's go up the hill!" Du Juan heard Tang Hongye's inquiry, and immediately expressed his opinion, "In the past few days, I have been walking around the village, and I have also found that the people in this village, there are not a few cats and dogs at home, in order to prevent mice from stealing food, I also specially inquired with the proprietress of this farmhouse, she said that usually the village has almost never heard of anyone who has a particularly serious mouse trouble, a little more in the past few years, especially the hottest period of the farmhouse and fishing park, people who come to eat something, litter, and rats are flooded." Later, many people in the village had cats at home, and there were fewer mice, and they could only be seen occasionally. So I wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, and I always felt that there were so many rats at the scene that day, and they were all so huge, not like they could be encountered casually, and it was impossible to find them in the homes of villagers. ”

"This makes sense, in this case, tomorrow Hongye and I will go to the mountain to have a look, you stay and wait for us, and then we will make plans according to whether there is any gain." Huang Shuai answered and put forward a plan.

"She won't agree."

"I don't think that's appropriate."

Tang Hongye and Du Juan spoke almost at the same time, although the wording was not the same, the meaning of the words was indeed exactly the same, as soon as the words came out, both of them were stunned for a moment, and Tang Hongye immediately closed his mouth.

The cuckoo saw that he didn't mean to continue, so he continued his statement: "There is no reason why there are only three of us left here, I still have to stay in the farmhouse and wait for you, there is no point in me staying, you go up the mountain but there is one less helper." If you think I'm a woman, so take care of me, then you don't need to, and I don't want to take a place because I can't do a certain job, and I want to cause trouble for other companions, so if everyone has no objection to going up the mountain, let's set off together tomorrow. ”

"I didn't say that you can't do it, don't get me wrong," Huang Shuai probably didn't expect his proposal to make Du Juan mind so much, and hurriedly explained to her, "I just thought that if you encountered a snake or something on the mountain like the previous time, you would feel scared, so I said that." ”

"I don't like snakes, but that day it was because the snake suddenly came out, or so close to me, so I was taken aback, next time I was mentally prepared in advance, it's okay." Du Juan smiled at Huang Shuai, "I know you mean well, and I understand your kindness." ”

Huang Shuai saw her say this, so he didn't say anything more, the three of them determined the time of departure the next day, and then Du Juan got up and went back to the room to prepare to rest, and when he was about to walk to the door of the room where he lived, he heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, Tang Hongye also came out and was following behind him.

"Is there anything else you have to do?" The cuckoo thought he had something else to explain to himself.

"It's okay, I'll go out to the bathroom." Tang Hongye replied very casually, but he didn't walk away directly, but just as Du Juan was about to say goodnight to him and leave, he suddenly asked, "Did that Yin Mei have anything else to do besides telling you about Ding Zhengqing's girlfriends?" ”

"Well, she helped me book a house," Du Juan nodded, this matter is her own private matter, if Huang Shuai asked, maybe she wouldn't say it, but she was looking for a house and planned to move back to the past, the purpose was to not cause trouble to Tang Hongye, so Tang Hongye seemed to have the right to know about this matter, "When this case is closed, I can move things over as soon as I go back." ”

"You asked Yin Mei to help you find a house? She is not a native of City A, she is not familiar with the place, and she is such a person who is not very reliable no matter how you look at it, you dare to ask her for this kind of thing? Tang Hongye frowned, and did not show the kind of relief that Du Juan expected, "Why don't I remember that you used to do things so brainlessly?" Before reporting to City A, you left your brain at home?! ”

"It's just a place to stay, if it's suitable, you can live for a long time, if it's not suitable, you will go back and pay attention to other more suitable properties, it's not a big deal, and it's not a house." Du Juan felt that Tang Hongye didn't seem to be very happy, so he couldn't help but joke with him, "What's wrong?" Angry knowing I'm moving out? I thought you'd jump three feet high with joy when I heard I found a house and was moving out! ”

"Three feet high, that's a toad!" Tang Hongye glared at Du Juan with a tiger face, "Of course I'm happy if you move out and give me a quiet home, as long as you don't play me behind my back, I'll be even happier." ”

The smile on Cuckoo's face froze slightly, as if a small bone had been strained in her throat, but she quickly adjusted her mood and sighed softly: "Don't worry, I'm not that boring." ”

After saying that, he pushed the door and walked into his room, and closed the door with his hand.

Tang Hongye stood in the corridor, his brows tightened, he tilted his head a little dejectedly, and continued to walk out.

Early the next morning, without waiting for the shopkeeper and his wife to get up to make breakfast, the three of them packed up, wore long clothes and trousers and prepared to go up the mountain to have a look, but they did not go directly to the mountain, but first went to find the village chief Shen, and asked him if anyone was more familiar with the mountains and could help them be a guide, after all, the three of them were people who had no experience in the mountains, and there was no problem with the sense of direction in the city, and they could barely cope with it when they arrived in the village, but when they entered the mountains and got into the dense woods, they couldn't play at all.

Village Chief Shen thought about it, and helped them to find the Angkor who drove the car, he said that Angkor has been very skinny since he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and he usually likes to get a slingshot to go to the mountains to play with squirrels, sparrows and other things, and then he got a gas [HX] gun, and he drilled into the mountains every day to fight rabbits, until he was later strict, and his gas [HX] gun was confiscated, plus he was a little older, and he became a family, so he converged and stopped running around, In the village, he is also a person who is more familiar with the terrain on the mountain, and more importantly, who among the younger generation likes to go up the mountain, Village Chief Shen can't say, he can only choose from the people he is familiar with.

When they found Angkor, Angkor agreed very happily, just the primary school has been out of the summer, he doesn't have to drive the school bus anymore, it happens to be idle and uncomfortable, now it is equivalent to finding him a chance to go up the mountain to play, of course, it will not be easy to let go, but Angkor up the mountain is not as tightly wrapped by the three of them, he just casually changed a pair of trousers, wearing short sleeves and went up the mountain with them, he said that he was mainly afraid of being cut by some blades of grass and bleeding, When he went home, his wife wanted to talk about him again.

The four of them entered the mountain, Tang Hongye proposed to go to the hillside where they found the car, after all, Angkor is a person who has lived in this neighborhood for so long, just listening to Tang Hongye describe the general direction has been able to determine their route, so Angkor walked in the front to lead the way, Tang Hongye followed, followed by the cuckoo, after Huang Shuai was broken, the four people walked through the forest, as the woods became more and more dense, the weeds under their feet became deeper and deeper, and the faint dew in the grass was also stained on their trouser legs, It feels a little damp.

"Why do you want to run into the mountains so well?" Angkor asked curiously while taking them away, he is not the kind of person who is particularly dull, he has long found that the three people are not in a hurry after going up the mountain, but they are paying close attention to the situation in the mountain, "I just ask casually, if it is convenient for you, just tell me, if it is inconvenient, I will not say anything!" ”

"There's nothing inconvenient to say," Tang Hongye replied in a brisk tone, "We just want to go up the mountain to see if there are more snakes or rats in this mountain." ”

"That's it?!" Angkor laughed, "Then you said it earlier!" I can tell you, as far as the big cage and big mouse you got from Lao Ding's house that day, I haven't seen it in the field since I grew so big! The little rats in the field are thin and small, you say that these are cats and dogs, and snakes, and there are things that want to eat them everywhere, and they are afraid all day long, and it is strange that they can gain weight! In this mountain, there are definitely more snakes than rats! I still think it's strange, how can there be such a big fat mouse! It can't be that someone is so boring and specially cultivated so fat, right? I've never heard of a rat as a pet! ”
