Li Meng and I left the commissary in Liujiapu Village, and through chatting with Lao Xiao, the owner of the commissary, we got a new clue that Chen Xuechun and his brother-in-law Wei Xuecheng were old acquaintances, and the two were likely to have emotional entanglements.

If this is really the case, then there may be a love murder in the case, which coincides with Li Meng's original idea.

We left the commissary, walked down the village road, and walked into a nearby house.

In the yard, a man was sweeping the yard with a big broom, I stepped forward and showed my police ID: "Hello, we are the criminal police of the Ningzhou Public Security Bureau, and I want to ask you about some things." ”

The man looked at me in a daze, and suddenly asked, "Are you here to investigate the killing of Tao Yunshu's family?" ”

I nodded and said, "That's right." ”

The man thought for a moment, leaned his broom aside, and said to us, "Come into the house and say." ”

There were people dead in the village, and the police came to investigate the situation for two consecutive days, and everyone was mentally prepared for the police to come to the door.

The man very politely invited us into the house and invited us to sit down.

"What do you call it?" I also returned a polite smile.

"My surname is Zhang, and the people in the village call me Zhang Laohan, so you can also call me Zhang Laohan." The man said with a smile.

"Are you familiar with Tao Yunshu's family?" I spoke slowly and began the normal process of inquiry.

"Everyone lives in the same village, and everyone who looks down every day and doesn't look up is familiar." Zhang Laohan's answer was very realistic.

What follows is a series of questions, whether Tao Yunshu's family has enemies outside, whether there are creditors, whether there are any abnormal words and deeds and behaviors recently, whether there have been conflicts with anyone recently, including inquiries about Hao Zhiqiang and so on.

Zhang Laohan answered every question we asked seriously.

His answer is the same as the answer we investigated with others, there are no enemies, no creditors, everything is normal recently, there is no conflict with anyone, Hao Zhiqiang is a high-ranking person.

Next, Li Meng suddenly asked, "Do Tao Yunshu and Chen Xuechun have an extramarital affair?" ”

"Extramarital affairs? I don't know? I haven't heard of it! After Zhang Laohan heard this question, he was suddenly stunned and felt very puzzled.

For the answer to this question, Zhang Laohan answered the same as others.

Li Meng looked at him in a daze, and said slowly: "I heard that Chen Xuechun and his brother-in-law Wei Xuecheng have an unusual relationship......

"Huh?" Zhang Laohan frowned suddenly, and said with some surprise: "Can't!" Who do you listen to? ”

Li Meng didn't think much about it, and sold the commissary owner Lao Xiao: "I listened to what the commissary Lao Xiao said." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Laohan showed an expression of sudden realization, and finally let out a disdainful ridicule, and said to us: "Do you dare to believe his words? He is a famous locomotive in Liujiapu Village, and he runs trains with his mouth. ”

Running a train with a mouth full is also a common saying, describing a person who is good at talking, bragging, and opening his mouth. It also refers to a special type of people, who speak without a door, who can say whatever they want and are irresponsible, and basically make up what they say.

"Huh?" Li Meng and I both felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but open our mouths wide.

Zhang Laohan looked at our expression, and suddenly laughed, he smiled and said to us: "What Lao Xiao said, just listen to it as a joke, and be taken seriously." Let me tell you, once, when the farm was busy, he saw Lao Wang's daughter-in-law and gave a bottle of mineral water to his neighbor Lao Zhangtou, and insisted that Lao Wang's daughter-in-law had something to do with Lao Zhangtou. Later, after this incident spread in the village, let Lao Wang know, didn't you see it, Lao Wang beat Lao Xiao at the base of the wall, and beat Lao Xiao so much that his nose and mouth were bloody, and his face was swollen like a balloon, and it took half a month to reduce the swelling. ”

"And that kind of thing?" Li Meng asked awkwardly.

"Isn't that that?! Can I lie to you? When the king beat him, I saw it with my own eyes. Later, we went to find Lao Xiao to be happy and asked him how he got his face? He said that he went to the mountains and met a hornet, which stung him, hahaha. As he spoke, he laughed again.

Li Meng turned his head slightly and glanced at me.

I've been thinking about this for a long time, but just because a person is running a train with his mouth full of words, he can't negate everything he said.

As for the matter of Chen Xuechun and Wei Xuecheng, we still have to continue to investigate.

You can't automatically ignore this clue because of Zhang Laohan's words.

The most important thing is that the clues of this love killing are consistent with Li Meng's initial analysis.

When Zhang Laohan saw that we didn't speak, he knew that we were suspicious of Lao Xiao's clues, so he spoke again and analyzed us in detail: "The relationship between Wei Xuecheng and his daughter-in-law Tao Yunjiao is good, and their son is also five years old this year. The two of them met at the wedding of Tao Yunshu and Chen Xuechun, and the two fell in love at first sight, and Tao Yunjiao chased Wei Xuecheng. The two got married, Wei Xuecheng bought a house in the city, and Tao Yunjiao's family also accompanied a car! ”

"You said that Wei Xuecheng and Tao Yunjiao have a house in the city?" I asked with a sudden frown.

"Yes! In Ningzhou City, when they bought a house, they still held a banquet in the village! Zhang Laohan said seriously.

"According to folklore, after Tao Yunjiao got married, she should live in her husband's house, that is, Wei Xuecheng's house in the city, how can she live in the village now?" I asked, a little puzzled.

Zhang Laohan let out a long sigh and said to us: "In half a month, it will be the anniversary of Tao Yunjiao and Tao Yunshu's mother's death, so Tao Yunjiao and Wei Xuecheng came back early and lived in their mother's old house. Alas, who would have thought that Tao Yunshu's family of three had an accident again. And the old lady died in a month, this is unlucky, I estimate, there must be a problem with the feng shui of the ancestral tomb of the Tao family, the problem must be here, but we can't take the initiative to tell them that there is a problem with the ancestral tomb, so you can't be beaten! ”

This is the normal state of the people, and when they encounter something that cannot be explained, they will associate it with feudal superstition.

"Ningzhou City is not far from Liujiabao, and it will take less than two hours to get there by car, why did they come back so early?" I thought about it and asked again.

"Then who knows, the Tao family has a total of two houses in the village, one for his son Tao Yunshu, and one for his daughter Tao Yunjiao. They now live in their own homes, and they don't get sick when they go home. It's just that they did come back a little early, and after careful calculation, to this day, they have been back to live for more than half a month. Zhang Laohan took a deep breath, and felt a little strange when he heard me say this.

"On the anniversary of the mother's death, it is normal for the children to come back to worship, but it is a little strange for them to come back a month early......"
