Chapter 281: The Drowning Boy
Under Jin Yan's comfort, Zhang Guihua's mood gradually stabilized. Slowly, Jin Yan learned the truth of the matter from her mouth.
Zhang Guihua's family lives in Sanwa Village, on the edge of Baiteng Lake, Baishui Town, Baiteng District. It is a traditional small fishing village, and the people of the village have made a living by fishing in the lake and growing lotus root by the lake for generations. The same goes for her and her family. This family, father-in-law, mother-in-law and husband, are all honest fishermen. She has a son named Cheng Tong, who is twelve years old, and he is a lively spirit who is the hope of the whole family.
However, six days ago, the hope of the whole family, the elf's lovely child, had drowned in the lake.
The first to find the body was a fisherman from the same village, who was fishing in the lake when suddenly a fishing net hung a heavy thing in the reeds. At first, he thought it was a big fish, and he was overjoyed, and he desperately pulled the fishing net to pull the big fish up. Who knew that when he tried all his strength to pull the fishing net up from the bottom of the water, he found that the fishing net was not a big fish, but a person, a corpse. The corpse was wearing only a pair of swimming trunks, and its whole body was already swollen. But from the face, it can be vaguely seen that it is Cheng Tong of the Cheng family.
The fisherman was frightened, but remembering the friendship of the same village, he had to take the body back to the village by boat and send it to Cheng's house. Shocked by the bad news, the Cheng family was naturally very sad. But because Cheng Tong grew up in Baiteng Lake since he was a child, he was familiar with the nature of the water, and the place where the incident occurred was not far from the village and the terrain was familiar, the Cheng family couldn't accept that the child was drowned, so they reported the matter to the official, suspecting that their child was killed.
However, after an on-site investigation and a forensic examination, the police officers of the local Baiya District Police Justice Bureau confirmed that Cheng Tong was the result of drowning, and believed that there was no evidence that he was killed.
The Cheng family was not convinced. Among them, Zhang Guihua especially believed that her child was killed. The reason is that Cheng Tong has been familiar with water since he was a child, the local terrain is not complicated, and the temperature is low in early winter, and most of the children no longer know how to swim. Doesn't he Cheng Tong feel cold when he swims?
"That's a doubt." Jin Yan thought.
"And." Zhang Guihua opened her teary eyes, "His good friend just had an accident in the lake and was still doing a funeral." Even if he doesn't have any brains, it's time to learn his lesson! How dare you go into the water! ”
"You mean, his friends, also had an accident in the lake?" The doubts in Jin Yan's heart became even heavier.
"He has two good friends, Xiao Tao and Xiao Zheng, who usually play together after school, and they stick together on weekends and holidays, like a person." Zhang Guihua said, "Twenty days ago, that is, the day when the corpse of a ghost-faced man appeared in Baiteng Lake, they followed Xiao Tao's father's lake to fish, but the boat capsized, and an adult and two children all drowned. At that time, Xiao Tao was also on the boat, but he was good in the water and lucky, and after being rescued, he still survived......"
"However, I didn't expect that Xiao Tao survived that time, and it was only a few days later, he went into the water again to swim and drowned again! It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense! Zhang Guihua shouted hysterically.
It's really illogical. Jin Yan thought, seeing two good friends with his own eyes, and the father of a good friend falling into the water and drowning in front of him, no matter what, he would leave a serious shadow in his heart, how could he still swim in the water without permission?
Zhang Guihua came to the district in her husband's fish car, and her husband hid in the farm car outside the restaurant, carefully observing the movements. He still didn't have enough courage, and he was afraid that the people from the police and judicial bureau would blame him, so he didn't dare to break in and say something. As soon as Zhang Guihua became a woman, she didn't have so many scruples. After all, the police department does not embarrass a woman in many cases.
At this time, I saw a young man listening carefully to his wife's crying, and the young man's clothes seemed to be the law enforcement officers of the "Heavenly Court" organization that were rumored in the market, and his heart was shocked. When he felt that his wife had finished talking about the matter, he ran over and knelt down in front of Jin Yan: "You must be the master for us!" Xiaotong, as well as his friends, grew up in the water of the fishing village since he was a child, and he could swim back to the village with his eyes closed, how could he drown in such a short period of time, this is not right, this is not right! ”
"Have you all told the people at the police justice bureau about these things?" Jin Yan asked.
"On the day of Xiaotong's death, the people from the police judicial substation arrived and made a careful record. We've said everything that comes to mind. Zhang Guihua said with teary eyes.
"Eldest sister, I understand your affairs. I am Jin Yan, the captain of the White Vine Squad of the White Cliff Squadron of the Heavenly Court Organization. Jin Yan said solemnly to Zhang Guihua, "Your child's affairs should logically be under the control of the Police and Law Bureau." There are some doubts about it. I will do my best to intercede for you, so that the police department can find new clues and try this matter. ”
Zhang Guihua and his wife didn't know where he came from, and they didn't quite understand what the "Heavenly Court" organization was, but they had seen him have dinner with the director of the police and law bureau before, and they thought that this young man's background should be very big. The other people in the police justice bureau ignored their husband and wife, thinking that they were unreasonable, but this squad leader was so patient and pleasant!
The grievances in the hearts of the two of them all broke out at once, and they cried in front of this person who was more than ten or twenty years younger than themselves.
Jin Yan looked at the grievances of the two people in front of him, and his heart seemed to be suffering together. These two are ordinary people in the world, the composition of thousands of fireworks. There are thousands of families like them in this world, and people and mortals like them. In the face of sudden accidents, they are like small trees swaying in the wind and rain, poor and powerless.
They need big trees that can shelter them from the wind and rain, just like thousands of mortals in the world, and they need the "Heavenly Court" organization and other organizations to maintain the world order.
Jin Yan had no solution for the time being, so he said something to appease the poor couple, bid them farewell, and stopped the taxi with some alcohol.
"Where's the boy?" The taxi driver asked attentively.
"Master, there's nothing special to go, you can drive and take me to the night view of Baiteng Lake." Jin Yan said, "The car money is not a problem. ”
"Okay." The driver said happily.
Jin Yan got into the car, and the driver drove him to the highway along the lake to Baiteng Lake.
A row of bright street lamps along the road reflects the silhouette of the lake. Despite the hazy night, you can still see the faint beauty of the lake.
"It turns out that the parents who have no children, they are so sad......"
"And I, a child who has almost no parents, also feel sad......"
He thought vaguely.
The taxi turned around and began to move away from the lake.
"Master, why did you leave the lake?" Jin Yan said, "Are you bullying me for drinking too much and not looking at the road?" ”
"No, how can that." The driver explained, "Young man, the place in front is the Bai family, the Bai Teng Bai family, have you heard of it?" You can't get in, you have to go around the road! ”
Bai Jia...... Angelica dahurica......
Jin Yan's eyes instantly passed the shadow of the beautiful girl.
So he took out his mobile phone and dialed Bai Zhi's number.
"Daughter-in-law, where are you?"
