Zhang Zhiping took out a document bag from the briefcase he was carrying and handed it to me.

I didn't reach out to pick it up at the first time, but glanced at Lao Li suspiciously.

Lao Li greeted: "Your temperament, why are you getting more and more anxious, you suddenly said this without a head, how do you know which one you are singing, sit down, sit down, let's talk while drinking." ”

Zhang Zhiping smiled: "Okay, listen to your brother." ”

He took back the file bag and sat down on the chair, the second floor of Lao Li's house was separated, a little shorter than the average floor height, Zhang Zhiping was tall and tall, and he seemed a little constrained when sitting on a small stool.

But after he sat down, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I still like you here, it's delicious." ”

Lao Li laughed and said: "What is enough taste, you, you are hungry for my wine to drink, come, just wait for you, look, brother, I am enough brother, in order to wait for you, such a good wine is in front of me, and I will wait for you to come before opening the bottle." ”

The two of them have really known each other for many years, you teased each other back and forth for a while, and opened the wine bottle as you spoke, and the mellow aroma of wine wafted out from the mouth of the bottle, mixed with the aroma of hot stir-fried vegetables, which made me can't help but gurgle in my stomach.

Zhang Zhiping seemed to be exceptionally deaf and clear-sighted, as soon as my stomach screamed, he heard it, handed me the chopsticks, and said, "I can often hear your name from Lao Li, come, let's go first." ”

When the wine was full, we clinked glasses, and Zhang Zhiping looked at me fixedly in the crisp sound of clinking glasses, and then tilted his neck and drank the wine in his glass.

choked Lao Li's distress: "I can't stand you drinking this wine." ”

Zhang Zhiping smiled: "I've been aggrieved for too long, my heart is refreshing, come, have another drink." ”

This was said so profoundly that Lin Yi and I glanced at each other, and we were both quite curious about what kind of medicine Zhang Zhiping was selling in his gourd.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, and the topic finally entered the main topic.

Zhang Zhiping pointed at me and said: "I have paid attention to you, He Yang, to tell you honestly, in fact, as early as after knowing the relationship between you and Lao Li, I thought about whether to let you take over this case, and then I thought, although you are very good at solving the case, but I can't cheat you like this, who can know better than me the hidden truth behind this case, it has been sealed for so many years, I sometimes persuade myself, just forget it, but sometimes I feel that it is not good, if I just forget it, I will not feel at ease when I die in this life." ”

I shuddered when I heard this.

Lao Li put down the wine glass and asked, "Lao Zhang, after so many years, you are finally willing to talk about the case back then, what is going on?" ”

Zhang Zhiping hiccuped and said: "Aren't you all very curious about why I went to be a police officer back then, especially you, Lao Li, I remember that you came to look for me several times, saying that the reason why I was sent down is bullshit, you are worried that I will be wearing small shoes because I offended, you said that as long as I open my mouth, you are willing to help me trust the relationship and transfer back." ”

Lao Li nodded and said, "There is such a thing. You were going to graduate school, and who of us didn't know your ambitions? As a result, you were sent down for some reason, no one is willing to do this, just a few days ago, the old brothers said that they still felt that you had been in vain for so many years, but when I asked you, your mouth was tighter than a mussel shell, and I refused to say anything. ”

Zhang Zhiping showed a particularly complicated smile, patted the file bag on his leg, and said, "That's the reason." ”

He said: "The case of the Sunshine Orphanage, I didn't expect that there would be such a complicated reason behind it at first, when I took over the case, I suspected that it was the children in the orphanage, Liu Jianhua's private property and his income obviously did not match, his wife Fang Fei is a housewife who takes care of the children at home and has no job, but she just insisted that she didn't know where Liu Jianhua's money came from. ”

"The children testified to each other and gave each other time witnesses...... He Yang, have you seen those children back then? ”

"Nope." Zhang Zhiping's topic changed very suddenly, but I answered very steadily: "I just transferred the relevant files of this case out of the archives, and after learning about the relationship between Uncle Zhang and Uncle Li, I went through the back door and asked Uncle Li to invite you over, and I haven't had time to contact those children in the orphanage." ”

Zhang Zhiping sighed heavily: "I don't know what they have become...... You haven't seen it with your own eyes, those kids......"

He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, they were red.

"What I'm going to say next has never appeared on the file, including before, listen to me, and if I need to testify in court in the future, just call me."

The entrustment of this sentence is too heavy, and I am busy answering.

Zhang Zhiping then spoke: "When I first came into contact with that orphanage, I realized that something was wrong. ”

First, there is an imbalance in the number of men and women. Generally speaking, due to the general phenomenon of preference for sons over daughters in many parts of China, the number of abandoned female babies is obviously greater than the number of male babies, and the probability of male babies being adopted is also greater than that of female babies when adopted.

But the situation at Sunshine Orphanage is quite the opposite.

The number of female babies adopted at this orphanage is significantly higher than that of boys.

Zhang Zhiping thought for a while, corrected the wording, and said: "Girls, the number of girls adopted is much higher than that of boys. Most of the girls I saw there were very ...... in appearance, except for the very young ones Exquisite. ”

This is the second point that Zhang Zhiping wants to tell me, about what is wrong with the Sunshine Orphanage.

The girls in the orphanage, except for the young ones, most of them are very beautiful, this is a very strange place, whether it is a school or where, as long as the crowd is concentrated, there will always be good and bad looks, how can it be possible that all the beauties are abandoned in the same orphanage?

"At that time, I checked the records of adoptions in the orphanage a few years ago, and managed to find some photos of the girls, and found a common denominator, most of the good-looking children were adopted by foreigners, and after a period of adoption, a few of them would be sent back, and the bad-looking girls, or ordinary girls, were almost all ...... I found an adoptive family, but I didn't see the child, who said the child had been sent to the countryside......"

"And immediately after I visited that family, a branch leader made a serious criticism of me at the meeting, saying that I didn't hurry up to solve the case and waste time on irrelevant things."
