24, Cui Yunbian's death
But after this question was asked, I felt a little naΓ―ve, because usually such questions are asked in vain and will not have substantive answers, just like you ask a bad person if he is a bad person.
So I didn't hope that Zong Mingyan would be able to tell the truth, and Zong Mingyan didn't answer me, just glanced at me and didn't say anything, so I brought the topic back to the current question, I said: "So in this way, Cui Yunbian's identity is not so simple, can his family still be found now?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "If only it could have been found earlier, but since Cui Yunbian died, his family has moved, and there is no way to know where he moved, and then there has been no news, it seems to be missing." β
Zong Mingyan hesitated when he said the last few words, but finally said it, I seemed to hear something from his words, I asked: "That is to say, after Cui Yunbian's death, you have already investigated his family, right?" β
Zong Mingyan nodded, but without a word, I continued to ask: "Why, why did you investigate Cui Yunbian's family at that time, did you already notice that something was wrong at that time?" β
Zong Mingyan finally said at this time: "Actually, Cui Yunbian didn't die in a car accident. β
I asked, "Why?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "Cui Yunbian's death in a car accident is just an external statement, in fact, Cui Yunbian was murdered, but his body was put in the car, and then there was a car accident with Zhong Yue, that is to say, someone disguised the murder as a car accident, and it is clear that Zhong Yue was part of this conspiracy." β
I looked at Zong Mingyan, but I just listened to him continue and didn't interrupt him, Zong Mingyan continued: "The fatal injuries on Cui Yunbian's body are easy to identify, and it can't be caused by a car accident, and the car accident did cause some scars, so there are only two uncertainties now, one is that Cui Yunbian was not dead before the car accident, he was driving to escape, but he was hit by Zhong Yue; The second is that Cui Yunbian was dead before the car accident, and the car accident was just to cover up his death. β
I asked, "Which one do you think it is?" β
Zong Mingyan shook his head, he said: "The two situations happened almost at the same time and could not be identified, so both situations may exist, and we can't confirm it so far, when Zhong Yue was also detained, but he couldn't find any relevant clues from him, judging from the clues at the time, he was indeed just a car owner who happened to collide with Cui Yunbian, and the car accident at that time was indeed caused by Cui Yunbian's failure to obey the traffic rules." β
I said, "But Zhong Yue is not innocent, right, now you should have a different understanding of this matter." β
Zong Mingyan said: "It's because of your business that Zhong Yue is involved, but if you think about it carefully, the appearance of Zhong Yue, including why he became special, is because of Li Rang's conversation with you, and there is nothing else, right?" β
Zong Mingyan is right, the reason why I think Zhong Yue is special is because when Li Rang came to me before he died, he said his name, otherwise I wouldn't know who this person is, what he has done, etc. I feel that the clues go around in a circle and seem to be connected with the previous events, and there is a feeling that the clues are tangled together like messy threads, and sometimes you feel that you have already sorted out the back, but before you know it, you are back to the beginning.
I made a noise: "Could it really be that Li Rang has discovered something?" β
After all, Li Rang dissected the pig's head corpse before he had this series of abnormal behaviors, and a question arose in my mind, what does the appearance of the pig's head corpse mean? If the pig's head corpse is just a case deliberately created to cover up Jiao Ming's identity, then some of the various things that were later implicated because of the pig's head corpse, and even the clues extended to the edge of the wood, how to explain this, I always feel that the line of the pig's head corpse and Jiao Ming's death is like two intertwined threads, intertwined with each other, although independent but closely linked, so where did these two lines converge in the end?
There has to be an intersection, but where, have I not found it yet, or have I already met it but don't know it?
For a while, many thoughts came to my mind, but after going through so many truths that I wanted to know, I returned to the original question, who is this pig-headed corpse, and what did Li Rang find?
When I thought of this, I suddenly understood why Fan Zhen wanted us to investigate this case, it seemed that he was asking us to track down a new case, but it was another way back to the mystery that I had to solve, because if I couldn't find the truth of these problems, Cui Yunbian's case would not make progress.
I took a deep breath and suddenly felt that this was a very subtle game, and by now, I have determined that everything I have experienced has been carefully designed, including every detail of my experience can be linked to a certain case before, and even a small detail now is the answer to a certain case in the past, and a certain clue in the past is the reason why the case happened now.
And I deeply feel that if the whole case is a spider web, what we know now is only a part of the spider web, and only when you can see the whole spider web, will you know what we are going through and what is happening.
Zong Mingyan saw that I was distracted, so he asked me, "What are you thinking?" β
I looked at Zong Mingyan and said, "Li Rang died when he saw me, so according to our speculation, if the broken body glued to the wall was not his, then where would he go, he has not shown up until now, if she is still alive, where will it be a safe place?" β
It seems that this is my reasoning, but it is a question that points to Zong Mingyan, Zong Mingyan thought for a while and said: "If you follow this line of thinking, there is only one place that is safe. β
I asked, "Where is it?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "Mulinbian Prison. β
My fox asked, "Woodenside Prison, why?" β
This answer was unexpected, but it was expected, I seemed surprised but I already had a certain answer in my heart, but I still wanted to hear what Zong Mingyan said. Zong Mingyan said: "Because Mulinbian Prison is not a place where prisoners are simply held. β
I continued to ask, "What do prisons do when they don't hold prisoners?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "Then do you know why the Mulinbian Prison was established? β
I once had a trace of doubt about this question, but no one could give me an answer, so I never got an answer, and now Zong Mingyan suddenly talked to me about this, and I immediately became excited, but I hid my emotions and asked him: "Why?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "At the beginning, the Mulinbian Prison was not a prison, but a mountain village, but this mountain village was abandoned for unknown reasons, and then it was transformed into the Mulinbian Prison, but after it was completed, the inside of the prison retained the original appearance of the village, just in the innermost part of the prison, you can enter through the last gate of the prison, but there is never let people in, and no one knows what is there." β
When I heard Zong Mingyan say this, I immediately remembered Mapo Town, although it is not the same, but there are many similarities, especially this weird feeling that gives people, it is exactly the same.
I asked, "Are you saying that the construction of the woodside is related to this abandoned mountain village?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "After all, I have limited clues, what I know is this, the construction of this prison is on the one hand a demand for the prison, and on the other hand, it is to completely isolate this mountain village." β
I felt like I had asked the key point: "Why quarantine?" β
Zong Mingyan said: "There are almost no records about this mountain village, it is said that it was abandoned when it was discovered, and there were people living in it, but I don't know where the people who lived in it went, and there was no living life in it at all. β
