This is an old house of more than 40 square meters, two bedrooms, the living room is very small, the kitchen and bathroom are also very cramped, fortunately, the two bedrooms can be spacious and spacious. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The white walls have been yellowed, and there are water marks and cyan mildew in the corner of the ceiling of the living room, which should have been caused by the running water upstairs.

The room was empty, and the only thing that could count as furniture was a chair in the living room with a missing leg.

The chair stands against the wall, with a few bricks in place of the missing legs, like some kind of performance art.

One of the bedrooms was empty, and there was a tattered quilt piled up in the corner of the other bedroom, and as soon as Yan Ruyu approached, several tide insects came out of the quilt in a panic, hid in the gap in the corner, and disappeared.

Wu Cuo frowned and said, "What is there to check in this house?" ”

Yan Ruyu shook his head and said, "I'll take a look." ”

"Then I'll visit the neighbors first, hoping to find the residents who haven't moved away."

After Wu Cuo left, Yan Ruyu put on gloves and lifted the quilt, but there was nothing to gain except for a suffocating musty smell.

He inspected each room one by one without changing his face, but the whole room was unobstructed, and there was no place to hide anything.

"No, there must be a problem," Yan Ruyu said to herself: "Although the place is biased and the house is broken, after all, it is on the edge of Jingbei City, if you want to sell it well, you can always find a buyer for investment if you want to sell it cheaply, and besides, they are so desperate for money, why should they keep this house?" ”

He paced and inadvertently came to the bathroom again, there was a dirty smell in the bathroom that had soaked into the wall and floor tiles, Yan Ruyu stood at the door of the bathroom, holding his breath and looking inward.

At this glance, a simple water tank above the bathroom attracted Yan Ruyu's attention.

It was a tin box with red rust at the bottom.

There was a wire attached to the side of the box, the plug had fallen off, and the copper wire was exposed. The front of the box has a spout that ends in a plastic shower that looks like it's been blocked by rust.

The simple shower is similar to the current electric kettle, first fill it with water, then turn on the electricity, boil the water in the tank to a temperature suitable for bathing, and turn on the shower to take a shower.

Looking at this thing, Yan Ruyu first admired the wisdom of the working people from the bottom of his heart, and then he moved the chairs and bricks in the living room.

He put the chair on the brick and shook it vigorously a few times, and when he was sure it was stable, he stood on the chair.

The top of the water tank was too close to the ceiling, and Yan Ruyu couldn't see the situation above with his feet, so he could only stretch out his hand to touch it, and in a few clicks, he touched a circular opening, which should be used to inject water inside.

Standing on the stool and thinking for a while, Yan Ruyu took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned on the camera, and set it to turn on the flash to take pictures.

He poked his phone into the hole and took a dozen or so photos one after another.

The photos are fairly clear, the first few photos can only see red mottled rust, and occasionally cobwebs, and the fourth photo has a light blue patch in the corner, but due to focus problems, the picture is very blurry, and it is not clear what it is.

It wasn't until the ninth photo that the blue color finally showed its true face. Although it is not clear, it can be seen that it is a translucent document bag, which contains documents the size of A4 paper, and the thickness of only a few thin sheets of paper can be seen.

The document bag was obviously deliberately hidden here, and Yan Ruyu was only separated from this secret by a layer of iron boxes.

He took off his coat and put it on the back of his chair, rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, and put his hand into the black hole.

Although Yan Ruyu tried hard to hold his feet and stretched his arms long, he could only stretch half of his forearm into the round hole, which was not enough to reach the bottom of the box.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as he heard Wu Cuo's voice, Yan Ruyu didn't reply: "There is something in it." ”

"You come down and I'll try."

"You're not playing, it's far away, and you're not a gibbon."

Wu Cuo smiled and shook the two dead branches in his hand, "The biggest difference between humans and monkeys is that humans can create tools. ”

Yan Ruyu's eyes lit up, took the dead branches, poked into the round hole, and manipulated the two dead branches, as if using chopsticks, trying to clamp the document bag, but who knew that he tried several times but failed.

"Some people have poor hands-on ability and are still stubborn." Wu Cuo crossed his arms and watched Yan Ruyu busy with his work.

Yan Ruyu jumped out of the chair, "It's not to highlight your strength, lest you suffer intellectually every day and affect your mental health." ”

Sure enough, Wu Cuo stood on the lame chair and got the document bag in his hand with three strokes and five divisions.

"Look what's inside!" Yan Ruyu couldn't wait.

"An insurance policy? In accident insurance, the policyholder and beneficiary are Wang Yuan, and the insured is Wang Yaoguo. ”

Yan Ruyu stretched out his hand to turn the insurance contract to the last page, looked at the insurance date and said, "I bought it a year ago, and the time happened to be shortly before I moved." ”

Wu Cuo was obviously more concerned about the amount of insurance, he looked back and forth at the contract and said: "If Wang Yaoguo dies due to an accident, Wang Yuan will be able to get 2 million compensation from the insurance company, 2 million is enough to lure a person with high debts to kill, right?" ”

"And Wang Yaoguo is already in the terminal stage of cancer, rather than dying of illness, it is better to cause an accidental death, so that he can get the insurance money."

Thinking of Wang Yuan's motive for killing, the two couldn't help but feel a chill down their backs.

"That's his own father! Can he really do it? Wu Cuo's voice trembled a little.

"The evil of human nature is like a bottomless pit, you never know where the lower limit is." Yan Ruyu sighed, "Go back, the key thing has been found." ”

On the way back, Yan Ruyu asked, "What did you find during the visit?" ”

Wu Cuo said: "I found 2 old residents, and according to their reactions, Wang Yuan is notorious in the vicinity. ”

"Oh?"

"This kid is a gambler, and he is a chess and card room in the neighborhood - in fact, he is a frequent customer of the black casino, and he doesn't want to die when he gambles money. However, he played poker mahjong really well, people say that nine out of ten bets lose, and he belongs to the remaining one who does not lose or win.

Later, the reason why Wang Yuan owed more than 100,000 yuan in gambling debts was because he complained to others because he was cheated out of the old man, saying that it was the casino owner and the loan shark who jointly set him up, and since then the debt collectors have come to the door every day, making other residents in the same unit restless.

By the way, Wang Yuan once said that sooner or later he would make these people who were plotting against him look good, but this means that a year ago, Wang Yaoguo was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and Wang Yuan seemed to have changed as if he was a different person, and he didn't gamble anymore, thinking about getting money to treat his father. Later, perhaps to avoid debts - the neighbors speculated, and the father and son moved, and the neighbors never heard from them again. ”

After Wu Cuo finished speaking, the two were silent for a long time, Yan Ruyu lit a cigarette, looked out the car window and said: "I really hope that Wang Yuan is a prodigal son, and I really hope that everything is not premeditated by him." ”
